"Your Highness, His Majesty King George and Queen Olga are already waiting for you in the dining room. Breakfast is ready." A sudden voice from beside him interrupted Constantine's meditation.

When he looked up, he saw that it was his personal maid who came to tell him to go to dinner.

Nina is two years older than her. She entered the Greek royal court since she was a child. After that, she has been sent to serve Constantine and take care of Constantine's food, clothing and daily life. Although she is only two years older than Constantine, He is smart and sensible, and is deeply loved by Queen Olga.

According to the queen's wishes, sending Nina to Constantine was not just as simple as giving Constantine a servant.

Although people from the royal family have noble status and glamorous appearance, there are gains and losses. Precisely because of their high status, they are the focus of everyone's attention wherever they go. No matter when and where they go, they must not lose the majesty and dignity of the royal family. The rules in the palace Too much, and over a long period of time, can easily lead to a sense of boredom.

Therefore, Queen Olga sent Nina to Constantine in the hope that Constantine would have someone of the same age as a playmate to dilute the boredom of palace life.

Nina was seen with her hands behind her back, leaning forward, facing Constantine, and her tongue sticking out of her mouth.

She is wearing a black maid uniform, a white apron in front of her body, and a white sanitary cap on her head. At the age of 17, a girl is at her most beautiful, with a slim figure, a petite figure, and a fair face. The brown eyes are clear and bright, the nose is small and strong, and the chest is small and undulating.

Wearing an ordinary maid outfit, she looked eye-catching.

"Nina, be careful that Queen Olga sees your naughty look and transfers you away." Constantine teased Nina while standing up from the chair, and walking with Nina in the direction of the restaurant. .

"You should worry about yourself. Even for the royal family, I have rarely heard of anyone spending as much as you do." He stared at Constantine with a look of worry.

"The thing you are planning is so expensive, can it really succeed?"

Nina is Constantine's personal servant and the person he trusts the most. The two grew up together and are familiar with each other. No matter what he does, Constantine will never hide it from her, so about him. She knew almost everything about Standing.

"It's up to people to plan things, and only God knows whether they can succeed or not. Just do your best and listen to fate." Constantine said calmly, but there was a look of perseverance in his eyes.

Although the Greek royal family came from the Danish royal family (Denmark is a country with a majority of Protestants, and the royal family is Protestant), Constantine was named the Duke of Sparta at birth, the heir to the Greek throne, and was baptized by the Orthodox Church and was an Orthodox Christian. Believers.

This is because Greece is a country where Orthodox Christianity is the state religion. In order to win the favor of the people, the future king of Greece should unite with the people and share the same faith.

"The queen ordered me to come and summon you. Judging from her expression, I'm afraid she's going to ask about that matter. You have to be prepared." Nina was still a little worried that Constantine would make Queen Olga lose her temper.

"Don't worry Nina, I'm prepared." Constantine patted Nina's back with his right hand to comfort her.

As they spoke, the two of them had already approached the restaurant. Nina took two steps slowly so that she was one position behind Constantine. The originally relaxed expression on her face also changed to a serious one.

Constantine on the side saw this scene and wanted to laugh, but Nina slapped his arm as punishment.

The two walked to a single-story European-style building. In front of the red wooden door, there were three stone steps that increased for the first time.

Constantine opened the door and walked in, entering a long corridor. There were some oil paintings hanging on the walls on both sides of the corridor. The contents of the paintings were similar, such as a table covered with white tablecloth and a pottery filled with milk. , placed in front of a dinner plate containing sliced ​​and neatly stacked bread. Next to the dinner plate is a silver plate. On the silver plate are placed a bunch of grapes that are as red and round as rubies, like pink peaches that exude a fragrant aroma, and cut into pieces of watermelon with black seeds. Most of them are pictures depicting dining tables.

Every distance you walk, there will be two symmetrical statues on both sides of the corridor, both of which are characters from Greek legends, such as the peerless beauty Helen, Prometheus who stole fire, etc.

After passing through the corridor, there is a spacious and spacious hall. A fluorescent crystal chandelier hangs from the top of the center of the hall. Directly below the chandelier is a rectangular dining table. A middle-aged man and woman sit at both ends of the dining table. Luxuriously dressed, they were none other than Constantine's parents, the King and Queen of Greece, their Majesties George I and Queen Olga.

The empty hall was empty except for the dining table.

Constantine walked towards the dining table, his shoes colliding with the grid-like black and white tiles on the ground, making a harsh "tap" sound, which was extremely clear in the empty hall. The hall was so spacious that even the footsteps of people walking around The sound actually echoed.

It is said that the reason why the restaurant is built like this is to prevent people with evil intentions from approaching quietly.

The spacious and grand hall, with its hard black and white ceramic tiles, will make any abnormal noise obvious.

Constantine walked to the middle of the long dining table, pulled out a high-backed chair and sat down.

"Dear Majesty George, beautiful Queen Olga, good morning." Constantine turned to the two of them respectively and bowed his head in greeting.

Nina stood respectfully behind Constantine, her hands hanging on both sides of her thighs.

George stared at the newspaper in his hand and responded without raising his head: "Morning, Constantine is already here, let's start eating."

As soon as he finished speaking, he put down the newspaper in his hand on the white tablecloth, put his hands together, "papapapa" and clapped his palms three times.

As soon as the applause ended, a line of male servants wearing tuxedos and neatly combed hair, with their left hands behind their backs and their right hands dragging trays, came in front of the three of them in an orderly manner. After placing the breakfast neatly, they bowed He bowed, kept the salute, took a few steps back, returned to his normal posture, and exited the restaurant.

Because it is breakfast, it is not complicated. A plate of sliced ​​oatmeal bread, jam on a plate, fruit salad on a silver plate, with grapes one by one, two citrus slices cut in half, and a glass of milk. Served in a glass with some caviar as a topping for the bread.

Queen Olga first put the napkin on her chest, arranged it neatly, raised the milk and took a sip, then picked up a piece of bread, spread it with jam, took a bite, swallowed it, wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, and faced Constant Ding said: "My dear son, how is your African Congo expedition plan going?".

Constantine did not panic when he heard his mother's inquiry. He picked up the handkerchief on his left hand and wiped his mouth before replying: "I have received the news. Today, Mr. Stanley is the member of the explorer team sponsored by your Majesty and I." "The leader will come to Athens by boat today, firstly to report to us the progress of the expedition plan, and secondly, to take this opportunity to rest for a while."
