Chapter 153 Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary
Latest website:
"You are just a bunch of losers! Please forgive me for such a harsh description, but at this moment I can't think of any tactful words. Oh! What am I apologizing for? You can't understand it anyway!"
Under the attention of many young ladies and Lawrence, Crown Princess Mary collapsed and shouted angrily at the two servants in front of her, her delicate face turning red.
Faced with Crown Princess Mary's scolding, the two servants in front of him just held their hands on their abdomens, lowered their heads and listened silently. They said nothing from the beginning to the end, and there was no trace of panic or guilt on their faces. Instead,
Full of indifferent expressions.
One of the servants even shook his legs arrogantly and passed the time boredly, completely ignoring the scolding of the Crown Princess.
"Huh? This is a bit strange..."
The strange behavior of these two servants naturally could not escape Lawrence's observation, and Lawrence also felt very strange about their behavior.
Judging from Crown Princess Mary’s scolding words, these two servants did not speak German at all, so why did they become the Crown Princess’s personal entourage? After all, it was not easy to find a few servants who could speak German in the Versailles Palace.
What a difficult thing.
Moreover, Crown Princess Marie did not bring her own servants. As a young Austrian princess who attracted much attention, she certainly would not come to France alone. There were at least hundreds of maids and servants serving her along the way.
But today, she was surrounded by two French servants who didn't speak the same language.
Even further, even if the two servants couldn't understand Mary's words, it was clear from her movements and expressions that the Crown Princess was extremely angry, but the two of them were still in the same mood.
The appearance of being a deputy has nothing to do with oneself.
Even though these two people are well-dressed and wearing silver wigs, they are still just servants. According to common sense, they would not and would not dare to be so arrogant in front of the Crown Princess.
"It's a bit interesting..."
Lawrence, who noticed something strange, focused his attention entirely on Crown Princess Mary. She was enough for Lawrence to take the future queen seriously.
While Lawrence was observing, the ladies who were chatting and having tea on the grass were also attracted by the noise made by Crown Princess Mary. They all turned their attention to her, frowned, covered their mouths, and whispered:
"Which lady is this? She can't even discipline her own servants. It's really rude. Hasn't she received family education?"
"Yeah, and what she said, I don't understand at all."
"It seems to be High German, but I can't understand what she is saying."
"German? This can't be the Austrian princess, oh... look at her like this, she doesn't have any Parisian style, she must be."
"God, I'm so worried about our future king."
...
Crown Princess Mary on the side also felt exhausted after scolding her loudly. She gasped for air while staring at the two servants fiercely.
Although she didn't understand French, she quickly noticed the frowning looks of the ladies and the murmurs of criticism next to her, and realized that her behavior was somewhat inappropriate.
"I'm so sorry ladies, I'll take care of it."
Even though she knew they didn't understand, Crown Princess Mary apologized to the ladies for lifting their skirts, then waved to the two people in front of her and said:
"You two come over to the side with me!"
However, the two people watched Crown Princess Mary waving to them, but they still turned a blind eye and stood there like wooden figures, motionless.
Princess Mary, who had been waving, saw no response from the two people, and suddenly felt embarrassed like a funny clown, and immediately continued to yell and scold unbearably:
"Even if your ears can't understand, are you even blind?"
When the ladies on the grass saw Crown Princess Mary starting to yell again, they shook their heads and sighed one after another, complaining to the people around them:
"Oh my God, it's starting again."
"I thought today's weather was mild and it would be a good day to go out and play."
"Yeah, it's really disappointing."
"I really hope some kind person can go up and stop her."

Chapter 153 Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary
...
Compared to the women's complaints and complaints, Lawrence had been sitting on the ground silently observing Princess Mary and her servants. After seeing that the two people were indifferent to Princess Mary's beckoning, Lawrence probably had some thoughts.
A guess.
"Okay, ladies."
Lawrence stood up, straightened his slightly wrinkled clothes, bowed to the ladies, and said with a smile:
"I am happy to serve you. I will go up and talk to the princess."
Seeing this, a respectable old woman quickly smiled kindly, nodded to Lawrence and said:
"Oh! You are Monsieur Bonaparte. It's so wonderful. I don't know what we would do without you."
The other ladies also smiled and nodded in greeting to Lawrence, and many unmarried girls couldn't help but blush as they looked at this handsome, young and forward-looking gentleman.
"Good afternoon, Your Highness, it's an honor to see you here."
Lawrence stepped forward, saluted the still angry Crown Princess Mary and said:
"I am Laurence Bonaparte, Knight of Florence, Governor of the Republic of Corsica. I am happy to serve you. @精品/书馆*Update~~"
Crown Princess Mary, who was suddenly interrupted, was stunned for a moment. She was about to subconsciously express that she still had something to do, but suddenly realized that Lawrence was speaking High German, so she looked at Lawrence excitedly and said:
"Ah, finally here comes someone who can speak German. I'm so happy. You are Mr. Bonaparte, right? That's great."
As for the two servants in front of her who had been accepting the scolding silently with expressionless expressions, they couldn't help but frown when they saw Lawrence coming forward.

Princess Mary nodded repeatedly and said:
"Oh of course. I'm ashamed to say that I don't speak French. I hope you can help me ask these two damn guys where the luggage I asked them to carry went. They came here empty-handed.
, I didn’t even bring a picnic box or tea set!”
Lawrence nodded, turned to look at the two people, and asked in French:
"Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess asked you where did the things she brought on this trip go."
The two people obviously hesitated for a while. After looking at each other, one of them plucked up the courage and said:
"Your Excellency Bonaparte, we are very sorry. It was our negligence that caused us to forget to take it."
Lawrence snorted coldly after hearing this, and confirmed his guess just now, so he did not rush to translate for Princess Mary, but said in a deep voice:
"Please answer me seriously. I don't believe that servants in the Palace of Versailles would make such mistakes."
"this..."
The two swallowed, broke into a few drops of cold sweat, gritted their teeth and replied:
"Your Excellency, this is indeed an oversight on our part, but we were assigned by the Countess Du Barry to accompany Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess. It seems that you should not hold us accountable."
Lawrence squinted as he listened to the two men emphasizing the words "Countess du Barry", and thought that his guess was indeed correct. The person standing behind these two servants was the Countess du Barry, so
How dare they be so disrespectful to Crown Princess Mary.
Their actions today were probably under the instructions of Madame Du Barry, and they deliberately made Crown Princess Marie embarrassed in front of everyone.
After all, historically, Marie Antoinette was quite at odds with Madame Du Barry.
Marie Antoinette, who was born in the traditional Austrian court, naturally developed relatively conservative thoughts, so when she first came to France, it was difficult for her to accept the almost liberal liberal romantic style in Paris.
Especially for Madame Du Barry, Crown Princess Marie was extremely disgusted with her, thinking that she was just a prostitute who relied on constantly hooking up with men and then crawled to the Palace of Versailles, and the life of her prostitute was even more intolerable.
Although Louis XV in history also paid great attention to the discord between Crown Princess Marie and Madame Du Barry, he still tended to defend Madame Du Barry.
Even after Crown Princess Marie became angry and completely ignored Madame Du Barry, Louis XV specially summoned the Austrian ambassador to France, hoping that the ambassador would come forward to persuade Marie. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 153 Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary
Crown Princess Li and Madame Du Barry reconcile.
Although Louis XV made a lot of efforts, the conflict between the two women was still not alleviated. In the end, after Louis XVI succeeded to the throne and Marie Antoinette became the Queen of France, she directly married Madame Du Barry
He was exiled to a monastery, ending the conflict between the two.
Although the current Crown Princess Marie has only been in France for more than a month, she must have met Madame Du Barry at a family gathering of the Bourbon royal family. With the character of this spoiled little princess, she probably did not hide her affection for Du Barry at all.
Mrs. Barrie's disgust.
Therefore, the scene that happened today is not surprising. Madame Du Barry used her power to transfer Crown Princess Marie's entourage, arranged for her own people, and then instructed them to make the Crown Princess embarrassed in front of the noble ladies.
All face.
Although Lawrence was not interested in women's court battles at all, both Madame Du Barry and Crown Princess Marie undoubtedly had considerable influence on Louis XV.
On one side was Louis XV's favorite mistress, and on the other was an important figure in easing relations with Austria. Louis XV would attach great importance to either side, which is why Lawrence took the initiative to show his attentiveness to Crown Princess Marie.
After all, in the party struggle between the Duke of Choiseul and the Duke of Richelieu, the key point lies in Louis XV himself, so it is particularly important to win over Crown Princess Marie.
"Is that the Comtesse du Barry?"
Lawrence sneered, raised his head, looked down at the two people, and said calmly:
"Then guess, when His Majesty the King finds out about this, will Madame Du Barry go out of her way to excuse you two servants?"
"This..." The two of them were obviously struggling, but they still said without giving up:
"His Majesty the King will not know about such a trivial matter."
Lawrence glanced at the speaker, stared at him and said:
"It's okay to lie to me, but don't lie to yourself."
The two servants immediately looked panicked after hearing this. Under Lawrence's guidance, they also understood that if they did not follow Lawrence's request, this matter would eventually be reported to the king's ears.
And by that time, Madame Du Barry's purpose of embarrassing Crown Princess Marie had been achieved anyway, and there was no need to risk disobedience to the king to intercede for the two servants.
Disobedience to Madame Du Barry would at best result in a reprimand and demotion, but if the king found out that they were disrespectful to the crown princess, it would be enough to land them in jail or even guillotine them.
"I...we understand, let's go get the things belonging to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess..."
The two looked at each other again, gritted their teeth and bowed to Lawrence.
"Wait a minute."
Lawrence suddenly stopped the two people who were about to leave, and said with a chuckle:
"You are the followers of the Crown Princess, but you can't even speak German. Let me teach you a few words. @ESSENTIAL/书馆·无码~~"
"Yes...please enlighten me, Your Excellency Bonaparte." The two men stopped quickly and said bravely.
...
Crown Princess Mary on the side looked at Lawrence in confusion as he whispered something to the two of them. Then she saw the two servants suddenly turned to face her, then bowed deeply and said in German:
"Your Highness... we... deserved to die for offending you. We... will go and get your luggage... for you."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After saying that, before Crown Princess Mary could react, the two of them ran away in a hurry.
Crown Princess Mary was stunned for a moment, staring with her big blue eyes in disbelief, looking at Lawrence with gratitude and said:
"I can't believe how you did that, my God, it's like they're a different person."
"It's just a little trick." Lawrence just smiled and nodded.
Crown Princess Mary finally swept away the anger on her face, raised the corners of her mouth and said:
"But anyway, you are really helpful. By the way, you just said you are the Governor of Corsica... Where is Corsica? Is it in Europe?"
Lawrence was startled for a moment, and then he remembered that this princess was indeed playful and arrogant as recorded in history, and did not pay much attention to academics. Even though she had a very good educational environment, she did not learn much knowledge. Not only did she not speak French at all, (this chapter

Chapter 153 Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mary
I don't even know where Corsica is located.
Thinking of this, Lawrence could only smile and shook his head and explained:
"It's an island located in the west of Italy and southeast of France. I am the governor there, that is, the ruler. @精品/书馆*Update~~"
"Ah, so you are also a foreigner."
Crown Princess Mary looked at Lawrence with some joy. She seemed to feel that seeing a similar visitor in a strange land made her feel very warm. She quickly asked curiously:
"Is this your first time in France? What do you think of it here?"
Lawrence shrugged and said:
"Everything is fine, but of course some aspects are not very harmonious with my tradition."
"Ah, yes, I think so too." Crown Princess Mary said excitedly:
"Many people and things are very good, but the style of some people is really disgusting. I can't believe that such people would appear in the Palace of Versailles. If you have the opportunity to go to Vienna, you will know that there is absolutely no such thing as the Hofburg Palace."
There will be people like that."
Lawrence listened patiently with a smile, and after Crown Princess Mary finished speaking, he added appropriately:
"I think you are talking about Madame Du Barry."
"Oh! I...you also know her?"
Princess Mary blinked her eyes, looked at Lawrence in surprise and said:
"Every time I see a large group of people nodding and bowing to her, I feel sick. Before I came to Paris, I had no idea that France was such a country. You know, she is just one, one by one..."
Crown Princess Mary spoke excitedly, but at the end she was speechless. It seemed that her origin and upbringing did not allow her to say this word, so Lawrence added with understanding:
"***"
Crown Princess Mary paused for a moment, couldn't help covering her little mouth and started laughing. The silvery laughter stopped after a while, and she said to Lawrence almost out of breath:
"I'm so glad you said the word for me."
"I am also happy to serve you."
Lawrence nodded slightly and lowered his voice and said:
"Actually, there are many people in the court who are dissatisfied with her. I am one of them, and so is the Duke of Choiseul."
"ah..."
Crown Princess Mary tilted her head and looked at Lawrence's face, bit her lip gently for a moment, and then said slowly:
"Then I think we have a lot to talk about.".
