Chapter 70 Banquets in the Kremlin(2/2)
Brauchitsch was also a well-known figure in Russia, and his family naturally lived in a mansion.
The carriage drove directly into the courtyard, bypassed the marble fountain, and stopped under the main building.
As soon as I got off the carriage and entered the hall, I saw my wife and daughter dressed up and going out.
Brauchitsch frowned. Supplies were in short supply during the war. However, the nobles and high-ranking officials continued to sing and dance. There were banquets, cocktail parties, and dances every night.
Many banquets even lasted all night.
I don’t know what dinner my wife and daughter will attend tonight.
I hope there won’t be that magician like Rasputin!
Moscow noblewomen almost let him sleep with him, and it seems that his home has not been tampered with yet.
Brauchitsch didn't want his head to be covered in green.
"Whose party are we going to again?" Brauchitsch asked, looking at his wife.
While asking, he also used a fox shawl to help put it on his wife's shoulders.
"You don't know? Today's banquet was personally ordered by Her Majesty the Queen.
He also specifically ordered that the most beautiful daughter in the family be brought into the Kremlin."
Brauchitsch's wife looked very excited and chirped immediately when she saw Brauchitsch's question.
Kremlin, Her Majesty the Queen!
These two keywords set off alarm bells in Brauchitsch's heart. Everyone knew that behind these two words was the monster Rasputin.
As Catherine's male favorite, Rasputin could enter and leave the Kremlin at will every day.
Now that these two people in the family are so beautifully dressed, going to the Kremlin is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
Rasputin was not picky about women. It is said that he even spared the cook in the Kremlin who weighed more than 200 kilograms.
Not to mention, my wife and daughter are all dressed up today.
"Her Majesty the Queen summoned all the noble ladies in Moscow. I heard that the son of the Marshal of the Ming Dynasty came to Moscow.
Our Majesty, the Queen, is ready to find a companion for the Grand Marshal's son in Moscow.
If they get along well, maybe the grand marshal's son will marry him.
Look at how beautiful our Angelina is, she will definitely be valued by the grand marshal's son."
Brauchitsch's wife did not see the displeasure on Brauchitsch's face at all, her eyes completely stayed on the beautiful daughter Angelina.
After hearing his wife's words, Brauchitsch's brows slowly widened.
This is no problem. Rasputin is not so bold as to compete with the Ming Marshal for a woman.
It's just that this kind of banquet is a joke.
The son of the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty.
Brauchitsch knew too well the arrogance in the hearts of the Ming Dynasty. Russians, like other Westerners, were looked down upon by them from the bottom of their hearts.
The Ming Dynasty believed that Westerners were uncivilized barbarians.
The most striking feature is the thick body hair all over his body.
Especially the yellow hair on his head is a hair color that only monsters have in Ming Dynasty legends.
Not to mention, there are people with red hair and beards.
The eyes are still of various colors, and this image is not much different from the monsters in Ming Dynasty legends.
The son of a general marshal would never fall in love with his own daughter.
When Ming people spoke, they would call Europeans old men, yellow-haired people, yellow-headed people...
Anyway, there are a lot of various pronouns. When attending the banquet, we talked and laughed, which was entirely due to diplomatic etiquette.
"Don't bother, we're not going to the party." Brauchitsch's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on his wife's heart.
"Why?"
"The son of the Marshal of the Ming Dynasty will never fall in love with our daughter.
Don’t go to that kind of banquet in the future, it will be unsafe!”
"Unsafe? Will the Kremlin be unsafe?" Brauchitsch's wife thought he was joking.
"This is a time of war. Do you understand war? Don't go out casually. I will send someone to take you to Xiang Manor in a few days."
Brauchitsch said with a cold face.
"Are the coalition forces about to attack?" Brauchitsch's wife immediately became nervous.
If the coalition attacks, Moscow will become a battlefield.
I heard that after the Tsaritsyn War, Tsaritsyn had been reduced to ruins.
"State secrets, don't ask.
The party is over, let’s go back upstairs.” Brauchitsch ejected his daughter and his wife upstairs.
"But this is a banquet arranged by Her Majesty the Queen, we are not going...!" Brauchitsch's wife became a little embarrassed.
"Well...! Then let Peggy go, not Angelina." Looking at the gorgeous eldest daughter Angelina, Brauchitsch immediately thought of another idea.
Brauchitsch's second daughter, Peggy, was sallow and thin due to poor health since childhood.
She is now sixteen years old, but she still has the figure of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl.
Moreover, her face was covered with freckles. Brauchitsch determined that Rasputin would never value this little girl at a banquet with a large number of beautiful women.
"Peggy?"
"Well! You don't want to go either. Send his wet nurse to take her there." Brauchitsch looked at his still charming wife and was also worried.
"I can't go either?" My wife screamed all of a sudden, screaming like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
"Well, you are not allowed to go. Moscow is too chaotic right now. Please prepare yourself. I will find an opportunity to send you to a manor in the countryside in a few days."
After Brauchitsch finished speaking, he went straight upstairs to the office.
My wife and Angelina looked at each other and went upstairs sadly, having lost all their makeup for the day.
When the lanterns first came on, the Kremlin banquet hall was brightly lit.
Although today's banquet was convened by Empress Catherine, she did not attend in person due to her status.
Instead, the former Tsar's sister, Princess Christina, hosted the banquet.
Almost all the daughters of noble families in Moscow came, and the mothers who accompanied the beauties gathered together one by one to discuss what kind of person the Ming Marshal's son was.
They all thought that if their daughter became the daughter-in-law of the Ming Dynasty Marshal, the family would immediately become prosperous.
Her Majesty the Queen would not dare to treat the Grand Marshal's in-laws harshly no matter what.
However, Princess Christina did not want to organize today's banquet into a blind date meeting for one person.
She also recruited young men from the Moscow Military Academy!
They are all sons of nobles, wearing crisp military uniforms.
From body posture to appearance, he is a good candidate.
After all, the son of the Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty cannot possess all the beauties in Moscow.
We must also give young men a chance to show themselves and find their lovers.
Li Lin looked helplessly at the people at the banquet. They were all yellow-haired people.
No matter where he goes, he is surrounded by pairs of loving eyes.
There are blue eyes, green eyes, and a red-haired woman with a pair of amber eyes.
