Chapter 35 The Emperor of Impermanence, The Magical Painting 'The Kiss of the Serf' handed down from generation to generation

The nun expressed surprise at the emperor's appearance, but then she could say nothing.

Peter wiped Aurora's body, making her a pure and beautiful person again.

The smile and happiness on Aurora's face made him always feel that Aurora was still alive.

Peter wiped and kissed Aurora, but Aurora's soft lips did not respond.

Peter glared at the nun angrily and said:

"Say! She's still alive!"

The nun looked at the emperor with compassion and said:

"Yes, Your Majesty, she is still alive."

Then he lovingly opened his arms to Peter.

Peter hugged the nun and cried bitterly.

Everyone waiting outside moved farther away so as not to hear His Majesty's cries.

Then Peter and the nun kissed each other, and then Peter slapped the nun again. The nun just said:

"Your Majesty, please treat me as this beautiful girl."

Peter kicked the nun down and shouted angrily: "You deserve it?"

Then he turned around and dressed Aurora.

"Oh, Aurora, my darling!"

Peter's murmuring voice was full of pain. He caressed Aurora's soft face and pressed his last kiss on her forehead.

The nun's voice sounded behind her, praying that the newly born soul would ascend to heaven and fall into the arms of the Virgin.

Only when Peter turned around did he realize that the nun was the devil.

Her clothes are all nearby.

Peter muttered, feeling that the pain in his heart actually dissipated a little.

Peter then called a second nun, asked her to bring paper and pen, and began to draw pictures for him and Aurora.

As he was drawing, Peter began to cry again, and sadness swept over him again.

This time, no matter how powerful the devil is, he cannot shake him for a moment.

All his heart was taken away by Aurora.

The nun knelt on the ground and prayed, asking His Majesty to grant her glory, but he paid no attention to her.

He just painted with all his heart.

Aurora came to life in his writing, and his figure appeared in it. This figure kissed Aurora. The beautiful girl was lying on the ground, her eyes seemed to be about to open.

"Devil! This is the devil!!!"

When the painting was completed, the two nuns screamed and ran out naked.

Peter looked at the painting with a smile, placed it next to Aurora, and whispered:

"My love, you will be with me and the world will tremble for you."

When Peter put on his clothes and opened the door, the one standing nearest was Ivanovich.

Mirkovsky was further away, escorting the two nuns.

Mirkovsky stepped forward and said:

"Your Majesty, what should I do with them?"

Peter glanced at the nun who had now woken up, her face full of shame, fear and shame, and said calmly:

"Let them live here, pray for Aurora every day, and never leave."

"yes!"

The two nuns put on their clothes again, knelt down in front of Peter with great remorse, and kissed his shoes.

Peter did not kick them away this time, but patted their heads gently.

The two nuns looked at His Majesty blankly. They saw the devil again.

But at this time, they have become the same kind.

Pasek died silently, and the fashion competition across the two gardens was still being held lively, unaware of anything unusual here.

If there is a small change, it is that the beautiful and proud Duchess suddenly disappeared from there, and no one knows where she went.

Peter did not disturb Vivian's feast any more, it was her painstaking effort.

He embraced Aurora's parents and promised them personally:

"From now on, I will take care of you with the same filial piety that Aurora shows to you."

"If you allow me, please let me take you to Tsarskoe Selo, and Aurora will be with you there."

Tsarskoye Selo is a royal resort not far from Moscow. It has beautiful scenery and is very suitable for living.

Aurora's parents cried and fell to their knees. They were trembling because of the huge gap in status. They never treated Peter the same way they treated an officer.

Peter sighed and showed them how peaceful Aurora was when she left, and then they hugged each other and cried.

A group of carriages left the manor and headed for Tsarskoe Selo. In addition to Aurora and her parents, Mirkovsky, Dalia, and Ivanovich were also accompanying them.

After leaving Tsarskoye Selo, Peter only took a painting with him, which showed an emperor and a beautiful girl named Aurora.

Peter asked Ivanovich about Prince Golitsyn, and Ivanovich reported everything in detail.

If he learned things from Ivanovich, it would not be that simple.

He obviously didn't just ask.

Carrying this painting, Peter walked through the Imperial Wall of the Palace, where portraits of emperors since Peter the Great hung on the walls.

Peter the Great, Catherine I, Peter II, Empress Anna, Empress Elizabeth, Peter ordered a small space to be left on this wall, and he would hang a painting here in the future.

The person guarding the room took the order.

Then Peter came out of another room. When he left, the painting was no longer there.

That room was named Peter's Treasure Room, and there was only one work in it.

"You will definitely become the greatest emperor..."

Peter deeply remembered Aurora's love for him and these words.

Amidst Aurora's best wishes, Peter went to find his aunt and talked with her for a long time, mostly talking about gossip.

Queen Elizabeth felt something strange from the emperor. She accompanied Peter tenderly, as if she was not an aunt, but a real mother.

After leaving the Queen, Peter locked himself in a room for a day and a night.

Queen Elizabeth ordered people not to approach, and only sent people to bring food and water, but also blocked Catherine who was coming.

When Peter came out, the food and water inside were not touched. He asked for a bowl of gruel, and after drinking it, he looked better.

Then he resumed his normal behavior.

He turned into a nobleman who came to Moscow from other places, found a position in the House of Commons, and continued to hang out in places like the humble Opera House.

Occasionally, he would go to Yusupov's estate and use all his violence on the duchess.

The disappearance of Princess Golitsyn and Pasek was a big deal. It was rumored that Pasek seduced the princess and took advantage of the fashion event to fly away. For a time, the city was full of turmoil.

Prince Golitsyn's face was naturally ugly, but it didn't take long for him to regain his romantic self.

The rumors changed again, saying that Prince Golitsyn had wanted to get rid of the princess for a long time, but he was just suffering from the teachings of the Orthodox Church.

None of this affected Prince Golitsyn, nor did it affect a single nobleman from the House of Commons who appeared in Moscow.

This nobleman had a friend who was once a down-and-out middle-aged nobleman named Ferdinandnov.

It's just that the down-and-out nobleman is no longer down and out, and his clothes and sword have regained their brilliance.

If it hadn't been for the fact that his distinguished friend often liked to have a few drinks at the opera house, he would have left that kind of place long ago.

Mr. Ferdinandnov's connections were not lies. He did not know where he got the invitation from Prince Golitsyn to invite other nobles to enjoy the great opera performance.

And the invitation said:

"Mr. Ferdinandov is allowed to invite him and two or three of his friends to come and enjoy the opera."
