Chapter 675 037 Fifteen Years Later, It’s Moscow Again

There are many things to say about the year 1811, such as the birth of Napoleon's son, but the difference is that Catherine's child is healthy, and both mother and child are safe.

Napoleon was very happy, but he also had his own plans.

What should he do with his son?

His ambitions have exceeded the level of his ability at that time.

Solovyov also had a son, and he could imagine how Napoleon treated his son.

Along the way, he could see a lot, and it seemed that people were no different from usual, still living and working.

"It looks good. This year should be a good year."

"Yes, sir. It's just that you brought back a maid. The previous one was also considered a lady in our family, but do you still treat this one as a sister?"

"Don't worry about it. We just need to rest for a while and then go to Moscow. Don't stop except at the post station."

"Why don't we walk along the Smolensk Road to Moscow?"

"We don't have that much time, and if we take the old Smolensk Road, it may take time."

In short, he has a lot of things to think about. From the border to Moscow, these things are just estimates. What will happen at that time is another matter.

Now we have to look at the situation on both sides from the carriage window.

At this time in spring, in addition to the open fields, what people can notice more is the mud in Russia.

The French will definitely not come in the first half of the year. In summer, when the road conditions are better, they will take action.

As for going to Moscow, Solovyov also thought that if he appeared in Moscow, he would probably be welcomed in places like the British Club, just like Bagration in the past.

But he didn't want that either, and was going to go to his father-in-law.

After selling the official residence in Sparrow Hills to Prince Yusupov, Prince Vasily moved to Volynshchina, which was Prince Krimsky's favorite place during his lifetime, and it was also the most important official residence of this branch of the Dolgorukov family.

It looks very beautiful here, and it is just west of Moscow.

Probably, when Napoleon arrived here, he would not escape. The French like to rob, and it has been a long time. When he was in Italy, he was already very clear.

When he saw Prince Vasily, Solovyov was also surprised at his father-in-law's current poor physical condition.

"Vassily Vasilyevich, when we left St. Petersburg, you looked very healthy, but now you are like this."

"It's easy for people to be like this when they get older. Misha, my good son-in-law, your success in Greece this time was known to the whole of Moscow not long after, and many people came to congratulate you. It's really interesting. When my father was in power, although he also saw this scene, they were really interesting. As you said, they were like chameleons, changing their faces all the time."

Soloviev took over this paragraph, and the meaning was understood, but it also made him a little confused.

"What do you mean?"

"Misha, don't take it to heart."

The mother-in-law spoke at this time. She looked well-maintained. She was only 42 years old now, which was still a relatively active stage in the social circle for a lady.

"Yes, don't take it personally. Child, you are still young. We have seen some things when we were young. You will be thirty soon, right?"

"Yes, Vasily Vasilyevich, my birthday is in April."

"Katya's birthday is about the same as yours, and it's a good time to have some fun. It's meaningless to go to the club. There are flatterers there, and guests have to be invited to the house. My good son-in-law is so promising, and the family can also have a party here, but that Mrs. Recamier..."

Soloviev knew that his father-in-law had an opinion about his mistress, so he also moved closer to his chair and kissed the back of his father-in-law's hand.

"Just do it according to your request."

"Speaking of which, I have no objection to you doing this. Julie is a good woman. If she wasn't a French woman, she might be your wife, or the Italian girl earlier. Katya told me about it, and she got along well with them. This lady can live in our manor on your birthday."

Speaking of which, the greatest advantage of old Prince Vasily is probably his tolerance and generosity.

"Besides, we have seen these things before."

The embarrassing thing is that Solovyov is also familiar with Prince Potemkin's relatives. Prince Yusupov even married the prince's niece and bought his manor.

"Yes, this kind of thing"

"Child, don't talk about these things. You must take care of women, but your woman should still love my daughter the most. I also know that you love her very much. If I hadn't called you back in a hurry, you should still be traveling in Greece now, accepting the cheers of the Greeks as a winner!"

Although the words are not connected, he has to listen to what his father-in-law said.

And this is at home, it doesn't matter if you talk casually, and no one will spread gossip about their family.

Old Prince Vasily also knows that his daughter is popular among her girlfriends, and can even get along well with her husband's mistress.

Besides, this son -in -law, after getting married, was already very convergent. He could help in the future of the two sons.

There is also a smaller daughter, Sonia, to marry someone in the future, and her physical condition is very poor. If you do the marriage, his wife is now just on the surface. Daughter and son -in -law are needed to handle.

"Yes, you are right. Just."

They talked for a while, and Prince Old Vasili was obviously a little sleepy, and the servant would serve him to the bedroom.

"Okay, I'm a little tired too, you can go to see Kajia, she will take the children in the garden at the moment, go to see the children, and there are, and when you are preparing to be next time, when will you prepare? Child? "

Well, it is really a bit unprepared.

"Kajia has to rest, and now we already have three children. For her, this may also be burdensome. I always have to raise my body."

After that, the father -in -law didn't say anything. He probably believed that the more children gave birth, the better the couple's relationship.

It was just that he and his wife had five, and he didn't necessarily feel too good. It was just the same as the general aristocratic couple.

As for the garden, we can now see that the female family members in the family are there. For the little aunt, obviously a few children are willing to be with her.

In the future, Sonia will have to choose someone to choose a bit. There is a place for court maids.

"Look at you, so that the sun on the lawn looks very comfortable."

"It's brother -in -law, you finally come back. By the way, can you stay here this time?"

"In the summer, Sonia, go back to Petersburg, may be left in a few days."

"Really, my brothers are not at home, only I am here, that is, my sister is back, otherwise it is not interesting."

"What about going to Petersburg in the future? Isn't it good in Moscow?"

"Both Petersburg and Moscow are not good, what if they can go to Liang Zan?"

"Liang Zan's people, there are some, but don't be too optimistic about the countryside. There are good people everywhere, and there will be bad people. If there are similar to you, I will pay attention."

Solovyev, in fact, there is also this problem, just like to introduce people.

He thinks it is more appropriate. It is probably the Bijia of the Rostov's family. The child is good from the small product, and it is not like his Cornullola, and there are some unreliable friends.

There is just a minor problem. It is probably the Rosetov's family. Do whatever you want, always from his own personality.

But they have to get along with each other, or they can just say these things after they know it.

"Brother -in -law, you are"

This Sonia is really a big ghost, in fact she knows everything.

At this moment, as a little aunt, she also jumped on the back of Solovyev on the back of her age.

"Dad didn't carry me back, can you go back to my sister?"

"Of course it's okay."

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

"It's just that you are good to your sister. Although your sister allows you to associate with those beautiful aunts and sisters, but my sister loves you deeply, no matter what time, you have to pretend to be in your heart."

"Okay, okay. It's just you girl, this weight is too light."

Sonia's person is actually very tall, but she is still growing, but her weight is relatively light.

"But if you eat more, you will be like a mother, and now she has become a little fat."

Kajia looked at her sister's back by her husband, and felt a little funny to think about it.

"What are you like?"

"Sonia is nothing, but how do the guests invite?" How to arrange a list? "

"If you are invited, you can come according to your intentions. But you just have time to invite these friends around Moscow, and also arrange the guest rooms for them."

"Lu Yuan's guests are naturally like this, but some guests may be a big family."

"A big family is coming, and of course it has to be arranged. Think about it, do you have to invite your relatives and friends in Liang Zan?"

"The two of our two birthdays are close, and there are many friends invited."

So when the two of them had to write some people on the paper, when they saw the Count Rostov family, Solovyev also had more mouths.

"Earl Illia's younger son, Bi Jia, is older than Sonia. I think it is a good child. Now he is still in school, but if you find a husband for Sonia in the future,"

"Your thoughts are very good, but they are too young. It is when I was engaged with you, it was just sixteen."

Now she is just a 20th birthday, so she does not need to be too anxious.

Considering the debt of the old father -in -law, even his old father also helped to operate. At this time, there are generally 300,000 ruble foreign debts. This is also a long -term life in overseas, as well as maintaining the decent life of the special prince's family. Cause.

But the future of Sonia must be planned, and she should not let her go out with a more shabby dowry when she is engaged and married in the future.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. Sonya's matter should be put aside, she is indeed a tsunami. Besides, we celebrate the name day together, and it seems that you are also the protagonist. As for the guests."

"There must be guests from both sides. I know you have many relatives, they should all be here. Where is your nephew?"

"Christian will be back in a while, he is probably in the army. But according to his father's arrangement, he will probably go back to the manor."

"You are the only one in your family who is willing to join the army. If it were my brother in our family, he would be engaged to Varvara, but I know about my brother's affairs. He is a little..."

"Don't worry about Vasya, he should be in St. Petersburg on this day."

"Kolya is still the best, but he is in Vienna and can't return now."

Katya still has a better relationship with her second brother, and she cares more about Nikolai.

"If you are a diplomat, you have to be abroad, which is inevitable."

"Where are you going to go in the future? Will you continue to be a soldier?"

"If I am a civil servant, it will be really troublesome. It is better to be in the army. At least I will act according to orders, and it will not be like the court."

"If that is the case, I am still a little worried about you."

"What's the matter?"

"Not only do I have a premonition, but there have been some rumors on the way to Odessa that the relationship between the emperor and the French emperor is not good now."

"If there is a war, you don't have to worry. If there is anything, I will arrange it."

"But I am worried about you. If something happens to you during this expedition, I will be a little worried about you in Odessa. When fighting with those barbaric Turks, there will be people who want to assassinate you on the road."

"It doesn't matter. When fighting with the French, I am not that important. The French will not treat me as a big shot, although the emperor and I used to be relatives."

"Actually, it is still the same now."

Katya said so, and Solovyov did not intend to let her go.

"You girl, it seems that you have learned some bad things."

Since she said that, she should be punished a little.

"What are you going to do?"

"Katya, I think you are ticklish too."

"Sonia and the children are here."

"Then I don't care!"

He was going to "punish" Katya by tickling her, making her beg for mercy. Sonya on the side just laughed and watched the fun. It seemed that the atmosphere was relaxed at the moment.

But such a good day can still be enjoyed for a while in 1811, but it is not certain that there will be such a time in the next few years. (End of this chapter)
