Holy Roman Empire

Franz, who was standing in the spotlight, was even more busy, and his continuous entertainment made him tired.No way, this is the noble life of Vienna.

The younger brother, Maximiliano, who also came in and out of these occasions, seemed to be at ease, not only did he not feel tired, but also enjoyed it, which made Franz envious.

Communication has never been Franz ’s strength, especially in the face of a group of dedicated nobles, which has forced him to be vigilant at all times.

"Duke, you are going to attend Duke Louis's banquet tonight, and you can go now!" The maid Jenny reminded

"Got it, call Massimiliano and let's go together!" Franz ordered

"Yes, Grand Duke!" Jenny answered

If it were n’t for the mother ’s strong intervention, Franz would n’t mind bringing the other two younger brothers together.When dealing with aristocratic girls, at least most of the firepower can be shared.

It is a pity that the other two younger brothers are too young. Mrs. Sophie would not allow them to attend this occasion, and Franz did not want to lower the age of the banquet.

To know that they are more attractive to noble ladies than Franz.The identity of the Crown Prince gave Franz a higher status, and also destined that his marriage must be a political marriage.

In contrast, several of his younger brothers are much more free in marriage, and there is no problem in marrying these big nobles in China.

...

Looking at Massimiliano who had a great time talking with a group of noble girls, Franz pulled him out and joked: "How, has my brother met the other half of his mind?"

Massimiliano counterattacked innocently: "Dear brother, if I said yes, you guessed it would be Mrs. Sophie ..."

Franz laughed: "Really? Dear brother, for your lifelong happiness, I don't mind being scolded, but can you withstand the pressure?

Today, the noble ladies here are all much older than you. Do you have an oedipus complex?

God, you ’re so amazing, Massimiliano, actually ... "

"Stop, my dear elder brother, if you say anything more, my whole name will be destroyed once!" Massimiliano quickly stopped.

It's not the first time for such a joke.

"Wait for me to stop a bunch of flies later, I will talk to Grand Duke Louise!" Franz said seriously

"Okay, I knew you wouldn't be good to find me!"

Massimiliano made a lifeless expression, and Franz rolled his eyes disdainfully.

How could a noble banquet attended by Franz be a simple banquet?If it was not to hide his eyes and ears, he was lazy to entertain him!

...

"Dear Grand Duke Louise, I want you to support me in controlling the court guard!" Franz opened the door

"God! How do you have this idea, my little Franz? You have to know that you are only 16 years old and less than 17 years old!" Duke Louis said in surprise

As a crown prince, it is not difficult to want the army to live together, but it is not so easy to truly control an army, especially if Franz is not yet 17 years old.

Therefore, he can only retreat to take the second place and win the command of the palace guard.Although the number of this unit is not large, how to fight is also a question mark, but this is the only possibility that Franz can get.

"Uncle Louis, you know that I have always liked military since I was a child, and my dream is to become a true general!

But my identity cannot be developed in the army for a long time. Now I can only enjoy the court guard."Franz explained

Grand Duke Louis shook his head and said: "This is impossible. You have to know that the palace guards are important. You have not proven your ability. If you really want a general addiction, you can enter the city defense army!"

What is the Austrian City Defense Army, Franz still not clear?This is known as the concentration camp of the generals. It is said that this is the only unit in Austria with more officers than soldiers.

According to the traditions of the German region, nobles must enter the army to serve as adults, otherwise they will be condemned by public opinion.

The Austrian imperial nobility also grew up in the German region, and this tradition has been preserved.But after all, the Austrian Empire has decayed. For this group of noble lords, everyone has to close their eyes.

Except for those who are really interested in developing in the army, most of them entered the army for gilding, and Grand Duke Louis let Franz take charge of the army, which is absolutely uneasy.

Franz frowned and said: "Uncle Louis, are you sure this is not pitting me? What is the city defense army, do you still not know? Even if Grand Duke Carl personally played, there is no way to take them, you think I can What? "

The window paper was pierced, and there was no change in the face of the old sly Grand Duke Louis.

"Franz, don't be angry. Isn't this a test for your young people? If you can handle even the city's defense forces, what else can't you do?"

These words may be useful for the second boy in Fools, but unfortunately Franz is no longer, and he will not know that the sky is thick and thick because of a few words of praise.

"Uncle Louis, this is not impossible, as long as you order all the gold-plated nobles to retire, I will go to the city defense army!" Franz pretended to bet.

"Franz, this is impossible, even if His Majesty the Emperor, there is no way for them to get out!" Duke Louis said helplessly

"So, I can't go to the City Defense Army, or the court guard suits me, Uncle Louis, you will not be reluctant!" Franz said pretending to be angry

"How can it be!"

"Okay, Franz, you can enter the court guard, but the position of the coach cannot be given to you. Now you are too young, and you have to practice for a few years!" Grand Duke Louise retreated

"This damn age! Well, then I'll wait a few more years!" Franz said helplessly.

His purpose has been achieved. The palace guard or the Imperial Guard is different from this army. They are only loyal to the royal family.

For Franz, it is not necessary to be the commander of this unit in order to master it. Normally, the commander is the emperor himself, or the royal family is appointed.

Now that this unit is in the hands of the Regency Committee, Grand Duke Louis serves as the coach, and Franz enters it as the Crown Prince. Naturally, some people will take the initiative.

He has already expressed his attitude and is determined to enter the court guard. Even if Grand Duke Louis is dissatisfied, he cannot really prevent Franz from entering.
