Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796

However, Solovyov had no time to listen to the choir's performances, so naturally he would not meet Schubert, who had just started to compose, so early.

To be honest, Austria either has genius children or a long river like Haydn, and there will be family mass production in the future.

The cat scratched the piano once and said that the song was really great.

Now he has to go to Shuvalov, who is considered a comrade-in-arms from two directions on the Swedish battlefield.

If Shuvalov had not tied down most of the Swedish troops withdrawn from Finland in the north, Solovyov's sea crossing assault would not have been so successful.

Although the two had met and knew each other in the past, and even to say that this Shuvalov was a relative of Solovyov's neighbor at No. 4 Laundry Lane, the old neighbor's Count Shuvalov, the two sides met when he held a reception at his home.

But at work, except for the experience under General Bennigsen, the two rarely had any intersection at work.

This time in Vienna, because of a series of strange things, they became partners.

It's just that Shuvalov's status is very high, and it's still useful to have a good family, who is also a lieutenant general.

Solovyov is now only assigned to a temporary position. The only permanent positions are the general of the aide-de-camp and the leader of the Selenge Regiment. The latter is retained by his father-in-law. Several branches of the Dolgorukov family are relatively in a low period at this time, not the heyday of 20 years ago.

Now the more promising young talents of the Dolgorukov family are dying badly. Two of Prince Peter's three sons died and one was injured. The two sons of Prince Vasily's branch have just entered the official system, and the second son is still a fisherman.

Solovyov can use the relationship of his father-in-law's family, but it is not very useful at this time.

To meet Shuvalov, you have to be in the embassy.

"Pavel Andreevich, we are fighting the Swedes in Finland, but we are on two sides."

"But you are still my relative's neighbor, how clever. And addressing like this is too serious, don't be so formal."

Speaking of which, the names of Russian nobles are all related to the monarch and his wife. Shuvalov was born in the empress's period, and his name is the same as Paul's, which is indeed normal.

If you want to address him now, it is obviously better to be more formal.

"Well, Pavel, this is always a staged process, and it may be closer in the future."

But considering that his son is also named this, his nickname is Pasha, it feels strange.

He has no habit of taking advantage of others, so it's like this.

"Okay, Mikhail. But in Vienna, you have to look at the situation here, it's like Petersburg, but it seems boring."

"The work of the embassy is not easy, isn't it? I used to be a military attaché in Paris, and it's better there. After all, it's not like here, where we are performing puppet shows."

Looking at the powder again, it is indeed the case.

"You still have to fake smile, but you also have to be careful of Metternich, right?"

"Not only men have to be on guard, women too"

"You know your mission very well. Do you want to go see the princess? I heard that you were very familiar with each other when you were teenagers."

"Ah, that's true. But I have to say that her affairs are not easy to manage. If she returns to St. Petersburg, I don't know what will happen."

Soloviev came here to figure things out, so he really had to go to the salon.

If he was in St. Petersburg, there would be problems. Bagration was away for a long time. Unless he trapped her with a group of girlfriends, something would happen.

Her girlfriends married and moved to Moscow and other parts of Europe, but not many of them were in St. Petersburg.

It seems that there is no difference between St. Petersburg and Vienna.

"You said that your predecessor is not only your friend's wife, but also your good friend. This is not good."

"But if it involves Metternich, Mr. Clement should be more secretive if he does such a thing. He is too ostentatious."

Soloviev is indeed very experienced, but because his lovers are two French and more ostentatious, it is not easy to find out about him, Luisa and Maria.

Especially the latter, no one noticed it. It's just that Maria is now crooked in Guastalla's uncomfortable period. If the cycle is calculated, it is similar to Luisa's situation when she gave birth to twins, which is not easy to detect.

Maria is in good health and always looks bad.

But on the Weimar side, considering that Russia is a strong force behind it, and although Maria comes from a big country, she has always been very good to her parents-in-law, and there are many businesses in Weimar that have her help, there will definitely be no problem.

Besides, when leaving, Maria and her husband

This kind of Schrodinger's matter probably depends on the child's eyes. Anyway, blue eyes are always easily replaced by other eye colors.

Another interesting thing is that she might grow eyes like a Persian cat.

Solovyov actually hopes to have a daughter with double eyes of different colors, which is cute and fun to raise. I have the impression that many middle and lower class nobles like him are daughter slaves.

But as for daughters, the ones raised at home are black-hearted, while the two raised by Polina are very caring little cotton jackets.

When he was teaching the two boys, the two daughters were attached to their backs. Such cute pendants could only be owned by lovers in Western Europe.

There is no way this matter cannot be dismissed as Katya's problem. The two daughters raised by Sylvia are older and are obviously very sensible under the influence of their mother.

As for little Lisa, it might be better to be older.

Next, she wanted to go to the "little fairy". She claimed that she came to Austria to recuperate and had a lot of fun in Vienna and Budapest. Naturally, she didn't think about home anymore.

Thinking about it, most of her good sisters are not in Petersburg, but they are having a lot of fun in Vienna.

It's just that she is so ridiculous, but she also has to consider that she is the cousin of the tsar. She was raised in the palace when the queen was alive. Besides her own granddaughter, she is the one she loves most.

Because she is pregnant, her salon is not as active as it used to be. In addition, she has always been lazy. Her home is so close to the Winter Palace, so she often misses work.

So this lazy pregnant kitten is hosting some guests in her bedroom.

"Madam, Count Solovyov wishes to see you."

"Is it Misha? Come here quickly! I haven't seen him for a long time!"

Of course, this is still a cooperative relationship between the two of them.

Just meeting the guests in his own bedroom was inevitably a bit too open. Thinking about Metternich always coming here like this, Solovyov also felt a little unworthy of his senior brother's experience.

However, he does not yet know the "Leprechaun's" official evaluation of Metternich.

Solovyov did not wait for a while. After all, the reception room here was empty. After sitting at the door for a while, he was ushered into the bedroom by the housekeeper.

The "little fairy's" bedroom is beautifully decorated, and the furniture looks very fashionable and even a little girly and cute.

She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Prince Potemkin doted on his niece's children, and she received the largest portion of the property.

Therefore, her character has not changed much.

And speaking of it, if you don't always have that charming expression on her face, it would still be a pretty cute face.

Even now that she is 27 years old, she still looks like a young girl, very delicate and well-maintained.

But if you see the clothes you are wearing, wearing it like this in the bedroom will definitely be a feast for the eyes of the male guests.

It was made of Indian cotton with a somewhat translucent feel. Considering her figure, it was a bit too hot.

Also, there are beautiful legs.

The "little fairy's" legs are quite voluptuous, but they are not as chubby as when she was pregnant last time in Petersburg. This kind of beauty still has the feeling of Greek sculpture.

However, it is a miniature version. After all, her body is so petite. Compared with Maria's big feet, these feet are very small and delicately maintained, like a pink-colored statue.

And the way she caressed her belly, it was only slightly bulging now, but things had already made Alexander very dissatisfied.

However, it was more or less true that she was dressed like this. Even at Polina's place, Solovyov had never seen someone deliberately dressed like this indoors, and she took care of her body very well.

If her clothes were unbuttoned, she would probably be a miniature Venus, and a little lustful.

"Misha, you are blushing. Seeing me like this, even if you are often with French women and have such a lovely Katya, the contrast is very strong, still..."

"It seems that you also learned something in Vienna, Katisch, or rather the Princess."

"Oh, there is no need to be so polite between us. Just sit down. Brother Sasha may be angry with me. After all, he is my emperor's cousin."

"I have your letter, as well as the letter from the embassy. I can only say that you have done a ridiculous thing, but you cannot do things that are opposed in the doctrine. At the same time, you must also think about Peter Ivanovi Odd, he is also a good husband and always takes good care of you. But we are both soldiers. People like me who have worked in the embassy may have better words, but because of his busy military affairs, it is difficult to take care of him. to you."

"I know, but I also have news that I want to tell Sasha through you."

Her name for Alexander is indeed a bit strange, but considering...

It may be a more affectionate term between cousins. She has always been loose and can be more willful, and does not need to be restricted by titles like Alexander's sisters.

This doesn't matter. Her blood relationship with Alexander is a little further apart, so even if she is really overthrown, the risk will not be too great.

Just her sitting posture, like a lazy kitten, Metternich must have done something.

According to Solovyov's speculation, the "little fairy" is shorter than his wife, but her body proportions look more obvious when she is pregnant. This physical state is probably closer to the time when he and Maria were intimate, but it is only a speculation.

If I ask, what information might there be?

"Is there anything you want to convey to His Majesty through me?"

"Come here. Ever since I met you, you have always kept a distance from me. Now I won't do it for the sake of the child in my belly. Oh, what did I say?"

When she spoke, she obviously didn't think too much about it. This kind of moment when she wasn't deliberately pretending was a bit cute.

But Solovyov didn't know if she wanted to seduce people. After all, when he judged the attitudes of those noble ladies, this girl taught him the method. After all, she was obsessed with seducing men and being beautiful.

She was so beautiful. Now she also stood up, crossed over a large Persian carpet, and leaned on the small lounge chair next to her.

Well, this is the same model as Madame Recamier, except that Madam is very charming without having to show off her coquettishness. Although the "little fairy" performs well in this aspect, she still looks like a child.

"You really are."

"If you want to know, come here."

Solovyov chose to get close to her, but the "little goblin" put his arms on the shoulders of the count general, without kissing her, but pressed his face against hers.

This is always treating yourself as a friend, not a man you want to catch and bite the hook.

"Metternich said he was willing to help His Majesty, and that Vienna and Petersburg could be consistent on some things. Just..."

She started stroking her belly again, which was not a small price to pay. Solovyov didn't even have anything to complain about.

Another problem is that the clothes she wears are too thin. Solovyov's habit is to visit guests every day. When wearing military uniforms, he must wear neat medals.

The "little goblin" hugged her a little tight and was hit in the chest.

"Why do you like wearing medals so much?"

"I am a soldier, and I have received many honors."

"Your medal has touched me. When you come to see me in the future, can you wear that beautiful banquet dress?"

"And later?"

"I think there is always a need for someone to keep in touch with Metternich. Count Shuvalov will be transferred soon. Do you want you to be the ambassador in Vienna?"

"Isn't this bad? I still have a mission!"

"Ah, that's such a pity. You are the most reliable person. If it were any other man, he would have been fascinated by my beauty and cuteness."

"I'm afraid it was a bit coquettish, so you captured Metternich?"

"Hahaha, that's it. You can't be a prisoner. If I didn't have that brave husband, you would be good like this."

It was true that she always spoke unreliably, and Solovyov could only accept it.

"Okay, I'm going to Odessa. This is an order from His Majesty. It takes time to deliver a message from Vienna to Petersburg. If you capture him, you need someone to deliver the information and a permanent resident." In Vienna. How about Kolya?"

"Kolya? Your wife's brother, that handsome and lovely young man?"

Well, she is a bit of a nymphomaniac, and her second brother-in-law is indeed handsome.

"yes."

"That's great. It's just that he's always lazy. I can help you 'educate' him. Don't think too much. If he were his brother, he would have already taken the bait. It's just you two fools. I You are so cute until now."

But, are you doing intelligence work, or is this an underground transportation station? It's just too exaggerated and doesn't look very reliable. (End of chapter)
