Golden Greenery
Chapter 629 A very gorgeous background
Koko's father Frank Joseph is a middle-aged handsome man with an elegant and cold temperament, with a medium to thin build, sword-shaped eyebrows, overhanging nose, starry eyes, and a very delicately groomed mustache. This is a first-class handsome man. If he wants to, he can charm every nymphomaniac woman from sixteen to sixty years old.
Coco's mother, Matilda Arabella, is from the Orange family in France. She is also a very beautiful and graceful middle-aged woman. There is quite a bit of Coco in her eyebrows. When mother and daughter stand together, everyone can do it. See the relationship between them. Matilda and Frank are a perfect match in appearance. They are a handsome boy and a beautiful girl. With such parents, it is not difficult to understand why Coco has such an unnaturally beautiful appearance.
Although Frank Joseph is very handsome, he has never been known for his stunning appearance. He does not have a huge aura, and he does not have a dusty aura when he appears. Frank Joseph falls in the crowd and won't be singled out.
But this is such a very ordinary man except for being handsome, but he has the extremely prestigious aristocratic title Archduke of Austria.
Why would an ordinary man with no palace, no political power, and no fiefdom have such a terrifying title? A duke is a prince, a prince is a son, and a grand duke is above a duke. He is a top-level existence that transcends the title system and is the status symbol of a monarch. If you have to find a comparison, the Grand Duke is almost equivalent to the princes, kings and princes in ancient China.
Coco's double title of Countess came from the royal family of Liechtenstein and Monaco. Her mother Matilda Arabella's title of Marquise also came from Liechtenstein, but Frank Joseph's title of 'Archduke of Austria' came from the family. inherit. The formal titles of the heads of the royal families of Liechtenstein and Monaco are only Grand Dukes, and they have no authority to canonize others as Grand Dukes.
Koko's father's title of 'Arch Duke of Austria' came from the 'distant' Austro-Hungarian Empire and from the glorious Habsburg royal family. Here, there is a story with twists and turns, and this story is closely related to the modern history of Europe.
Zhuo Yang knew from the beginning of knowing Kou Kou that she had the distinguished status of a countess with double titles. This made Zhuo Yang's little vanity very satisfied, because this was the love between a prince and a princess. People traditionally nickname the unmarried countess as 'princess', and they will even call her like this throughout her life. Countess Christine Josephine is Her Royal Highness Princess Christine, and she is Princess Koko.
From Kou Kou's introduction, Zhuo Yang also learned that she came from the Joseph family. The male's surname is Joseph, and the female's is naturally Josephine. Zhuoyang has been in Europe for more than six years. He already knows a little about the aristocracy here, but he has never heard of the Joseph family before. However, there were so many nobles left behind in Europe that he didn't pay much attention, presumably because he was ignorant.
But not long ago, Zhuo Yang suddenly realized that the identity of the Kou Kou family was so prominent and profound.
Some time ago, one day after that romantic 'blue dream',
As Christine Josephine's boyfriend, Zhuo Yang went to Kissman School of Business to formally meet with the school leaders and department heads. It's just a courtesy visit. The most important thing is to be able to hold hands with Kou Kou and go on campus together.
In order to book a ticket for Kou Kou to fly to Warsaw during the New Year, Zhuo Yang opened Kou Kou's passport for the first time and saw Kou Kou's full name for the first time.
Europeans are very particular about surnames in some places, and the differences between different countries and ethnic groups are also very big, so I won't go into details here. However, the more senior the family, the longer the full name, and the more traditional the noble, the longer the full name. This is certain.
Koko's full name on her passport is Christine O'Negan, Charles, Princess of Wales, Josephine Habsburg-Lorraine.
On the second line of the first page of the passport, the abbreviation is: Christine Josephine.
It was the 'Habsburg-Lorraine' at the end of the surname above that aroused Zhuo Yang's great interest, because this surname is so powerful and domineering. It is the surname of the largest wealthy family that once ruled Europe for hundreds of years. .
"Hey, Habsburg-Lorraine! Koko, is it the Habsburg?" Zhuoyang asked in surprise.
"Well, it's the Habsburg."
"This... is so awesome." Zhuo Yang still couldn't believe it. "Is this the Habsburg that Princess Sissi and her emperor's husband lived in?" Ernst Marischka, the famous Austrian screenwriter and director in the past, once wrote in the "Sissi" movie trilogy. As the movie became popular around the world, this story became more and more popular. The story of an unparalleled beautiful princess and her love affair with the emperor’s husband has spread all over the world and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in China.
"Yes." Koko replied with a smile: "Princess Sissi is my great-grandmother, and our Joseph family is the only descendant of her and Emperor Franz Joseph I."
"Hoo hoo ho...ho ho..." Even Zhuo Yang, who spoke sharply, was speechless at this huge accident, leaving only a series of exclamations. He never expected that Kou Kou's background would be so gorgeous.
Although the influence of the Habsburg family, which once ruled the Holy Roman Empire for hundreds of years, has disappeared, the last hero of the Habsburg family, Emperor Franz Joseph I, who established the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and his Queen Sissi is deeply rooted in the hearts of people in Germany, Austria, Italy and even Europe. Although it has been more than a hundred years ago, events in Bavaria, Germany, where Princess Sissi was born, have always held events to commemorate her, and Austria still remembers His Majesty the Great Emperor Franz Joseph I.
No matter how the political situation changes, even if many countries expel their nobility and move toward republic after World War I, they all still have great admiration for this couple from more than a hundred years ago. The heroic, chivalrous, upright and wise emperor, the graceful, beautiful and lovely queen, the people of Europe still remember them today. Even though they disliked the former Habsburg royal family, Franz I and Princess Sissi were loved by everyone.
After Zhuoyang was over his surprise, he smiled sillyly and returned to his senses. Kou Kou opened her lips lightly and told him the origin and story of her family.
Why is it that even though the surname "Habsburg-Lorraine" is extremely dazzling, only "Joseph" is used in formal occasions?
Why have you lived in the valley of the tiny country of Liechtenstein for hundreds of years? And not in the family's place of origin, or in Vienna?
Why is it that the Kou Kou family is recognized as Austrian but does not have Austrian nationality?
All of this must start from the origin of the Habsburg family. It was the era of chaos in Europe. At that time, the Chinese mainland in the far east was filled with the smoke and dust of the Thirty-Six Roads, and there were many anti-kings and heroes. rise.
This story is so long and has so many twists and turns that Zhuoyang sighed endlessly.
