Chapter Fifty-Four: Training of Vorontsova, Advice from Princess Polia

Elizabeth frowned and asked again:

"How did Peter touch you, and why did he stop?"

His words were filled with worry.

Isn't the reason why the Austrian Succession War is breaking out now because Charles VI has no son who grew up alive?

She never wanted Russia to follow Austria's footsteps.

This problem is very serious!

Vorontsova was choked with sobs and couldn't speak. She didn't know either.

Duchess Polya said from the side:

"Your Majesty, please allow me to inquire."

Elizabeth nodded, sat on the chair again, and stared at Vorontsova.

Duchess Polya said:

"Vorontsova, when His Highness touched you, did he?"

?

Vorontsova was stunned for a moment, then realized what the duchess was talking about. As the daughter of a great noble, she was taught this by someone.

Vorontsova then said timidly:

"Madam, I was a little scared at the time and closed my eyes, so, I didn't see..."

Princess Polya was furious.

She asked again:

"Did you close your eyes both times?"

Vorontsova lowered her head, not daring to look at the Queen and the Duchess, and nodded.

Elizabeth and Polya looked at each other, both anxious, wondering why Vorontsova was so unsatisfactory!

Then Princess Polya became suspicious:

"Have you ever used the medicinal diet method I taught you to His Highness?"

Vorontsova trembled and said:

"Yes, it is……"

Not wanting His Highness to be blamed, she didn't tell her that Peter didn't let her use it.

Hearing this, Elizabeth snorted angrily and said:

"Since you can't do this, you can't do that either. Why are you still staying with Peter? Go back and be your daughter of a great noble!"

The implication was that Vorontsova was to be expelled from the palace.

And the daughter of a great nobleman expelled by the Queen will lose her reputation in the aristocratic circle!

Vorontsova was stunned, and then cried:

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please give me another chance. I will... I will definitely work hard! I will complete the task! Please, Your Majesty!"

Looking at Vorontsova crying miserably, Elizabeth just said calmly:

"Give you one more chance, there will be no next time."

Vorontsova was then kicked out.

After Vorontsova left, Elizabeth did not relax because of Vorontsova's promise. Polya knew the Queen's thoughts well, and her serious and old-fashioned face was once again full of sincerity. The Duchess asked:

"Your Majesty, please allow me to serve you and His Highness. Who else can get you a more reassuring answer than me?"

Elizabeth thinks it makes sense. Karl and Vorontsova are too young. What kind of things are they doing?

If anyone could reassure her, it was undoubtedly Polya.

But she hesitated and said:

"Peter seems to be resisting you."

Duchess Polya said:

"Your Majesty, I only need to use a little drug to enhance your enjoyment, and the masquerade will be held soon. This is a perfect opportunity."

"Don't hurt Peter's body."

Elizabeth pondered for a moment, gave some instructions, and then agreed.

Then Elizabeth sighed.

Peter, your aunt is all for the empire, you have to be considerate of her...

No one cares about the empire more than she does. As soon as there is no heir with stable fertility, little Ivan who is locked up in the fortress keeps her awake at night.

Both she and Peter are in danger.

As for what she saw last time, she was very worried that it was just the effect of Polya's medicinal diet...

Vorontsova came out with red eyes, which surprised Peter.

"What's wrong?"

Peter asked.

Vorontsova smiled and said:

"It's okay, Your Highness, the wind is blowing in your eyes."

Naturally, Peter wouldn't believe such a clumsy lie, but he didn't say anything for the time being.

He was now in the baptismal hall, where all the court ministers were present, and also the Patriarch.

However, the Patriarch was not interested in talking to him at all, and was not even willing to give him a look.

But Peter was a good boy who respected his elders. He still sent the Bible over. In front of the ministers, the Patriarch would not refuse to accept it.

Adrian was helpless, he had no choice but to continue, but his face was smelly.

Then Peter stood aside quietly, and some of the palace ministers came to say hello one after another, and Peter greeted them in response.

Only a small part of the people said hello, the others didn't come over, and among the ministers who didn't come over, the most important ones were basically there.

This made him feel once again that he was still the ignorant Peter in the eyes of the ministers.

But it doesn't matter, it's only been less than a week, and he hasn't done anything. Everything is focused on gaining St. Andre points around his aunt.

Right now, this is the most important thing to him!

These ministers also thought that he was Peter from before, which was reasonable.

"Your Highness..."

Countess Roman and her family came to say hello with respectful smiles.

Peter smiled and nodded to them. The goal he wanted to achieve was achieved, and there was no need to look sad anymore.

This appearance fell in the eyes of the Patriarch, and he was even more convinced that Peter was completely pretending just now, and what he said about holy revelations was all nonsense.

It's so abominable!

The more Adrian thought about it, the angrier he became.

How dare Peter use the Holy Revelation as a reason?

It’s really too bad!

Worse than peeing on his bed, no, worse than peeing on his face!

He must record Peter’s deeds!

Not only must it be recorded, but it must also be spread throughout Russia. Only in this way can the royal family know that the Holy Revelation cannot be mentioned casually!

This precedent must not be set!

Peter didn't care about Adrian's expression or mood. He just had a brief chat with the count's family, and they almost immediately expressed their loyalty.

Peter was not very surprised.

In the empire's title system, dukes, princes, sons, and counts occupy the third rank, but there are too many counts.

According to the historical process, after he and Ye Er get engaged, his aunt will give him a group of followers.

These followers are not servants, but people who accompany them to relieve their boredom. They are basically all earls.

As for these earls, they disappeared at the drop of a hat.

There is a world of difference in status between an earl with a position and an earl without a position.

Probably in the eyes of my aunt, the status of an earl without a position is only a little higher than that of a maid.

Peter became quiet, and the count and his wife did not disturb him, but stood quietly behind Peter.

After this baptism, Peter became the godfather of their daughters, and the relationship was naturally very close.

And Peter's eyes scanned among the ministers.

Don't pay attention to this guy Vorontsov. He seems to have forgotten that he has a daughter. He is looking for Deputy Minister of General Affairs Bestudev.
