Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796

Speaking of which, The Merchant was Nekrasov's work in 1861, and the music was composed even later.

Now take it out and play it on the balalaika, and it does have some flavor.

But it was indeed quite troublesome for Maria to be so ambiguous with him.

You must know that although this little aunt is the most honest, she is also the most sinister.

The sisters all have their own characteristics. Except for Anna who is too young, Maria is not as smart as Elena from the inside out. Alexandra is more reserved, while Ekaterina is more frivolous. , her kind is the most difficult to deal with.

After all, if she decides on something, it will be difficult to refuse. In addition, Paul's favorite was her at the beginning. When he was in the palace, Solovyov knew how to deal with several aunts, and Maria still got the most things from him, especially poetry and Those sheet music.

This is also the greatest utilization value of an orange. When the knowledge is still abundant, try to extract it as much as possible. In addition, you must find ways to squeeze it dry. This refers to the knowledge aspect.

When it comes to emotional ambiguity, the two of them are obviously not at this level. As for Maria being so proactive, Solovyov is also more worried. My sister-in-law, please don't make any mistakes yourself. You are a humble person. He no longer looks like the boy he used to be.

It would be fine if Maria still regarded him as her "best friend", but if she and Louisa developed to the same level, then Solovyov would feel that he was a sinful "best friend".

What happened between him and Louisa was enough. If something happened with Maria, I don’t know what the Queen Mother would think about it.

Although the Queen Mother was in the palace, she often left her two aunts to the care of young officers and maids, and they even farmed together.

This friendship of working together is quite a wonderful fate.

But Maria was indeed quite special. She led Solovyov from the courtyard to the palace, and did something quite powerful in the reception room of her room.

"Take off your clothes and let me take a look."

After all, they are biological sisters raised together, and Maria is somewhat similar to her younger sister.

"This is not good, Your Highness. But there are no mice here, or..."

Speaking of which, she is still the same as when she was a child, but she has matured a little.

But when it came to mice, she was still the same.

"Don't mention the mouse. It's like the Misha that Katishi likes. It's not surprising. We are still friends. It's just a pity that Petya suddenly fell ill and passed away."

"There's nothing you can do about it. Birth, old age, sickness, and death just come too quickly, and it's an emergency. As for His Highness Paul, you still have to take good care of him. He is still a child less than 2 years old. Teething occurs at this time, and he is most susceptible to infection and convulsions. , be careful."

What Maria cares about most is probably her son, Solovyov emphasized again, also speaking from the bottom of her heart.

However, she still took off Solovyov's coat to see the injured area.

"That's it. The French bayonet hurt my arm and scratched my ribs a little. It doesn't matter."

Of course, Solovyov still looks like that kind of artistic young man, but he seems to be doing some iron training in private, and his body looks relatively strong.

"You are a soldier, and I can't stop you from doing dangerous things. My brothers will also face this kind of danger, but they are not always fighting against others like you."

"His Majesty did not go on an expedition this time, but His Highness Constantine and I often went on expeditions together, and we did often encounter trouble."

"Yes, people are different. Or...can you use this grand piano to play music again?"

"Your Highness, what do you want to do?"

Solovyov also saw that Maria's interest in music would never diminish.

"You can come to my place, and we can practice a quartet together. In this way, I will play the harp, and you can play the guitar or this grand piano."

"The balalaika, your highness. It is also a traditional musical instrument."

"Okay, Balalaika, besides that, we have two more people to look for."

As long as it's not the suona player, nothing can stop it once it comes up.

"If you need a violinist."

"It's okay. The son of the King of Prussia will play the flute. As for the need for someone to compose the music, I really haven't thought about it."

"How about asking one of the princesses to try the violin or other musical instruments."

"If you put it that way, in addition to Prince William, there is also Princess Charlotte, and that child also has some talent."

It’s not like Solovyov didn’t know about these two people.

Prince William is the old Emperor William, but he does not need to come back now, he is still a child, and even Maria is the mother-in-law of him and his third brother, Frederick Carl.

As for Charlotte, she was the future wife of his apprentice, Nicholas, the silly son of a landowner. The couple later gave birth to seven children, and their relationship was relatively deep.

If you put it this way, wouldn't it mean that Maria was testing a husband for her unpregnant child?

As for Nikolai's matter, since Solovyov, the master, was led by the student's mistake (although the formal matchmaker was someone else), the master will naturally help the student find his future. daughter in law.

It's just that the parties involved are definitely not clear about this matter.

Here, the main purpose is to relieve the tense atmosphere. The Prussian royal family is not in Memel and came to Jelgava because this is also the territory of the Principality of Courland, and it is still on the edge of the dead illegal organization.

It was Queen Louise's idea to organize activities for the children. She had been feeling chest tightness and shortness of breath recently, but she still wanted to maintain the atmosphere of the exiled court, so she thought of organizing a quartet.

However, the crown prince himself did not participate. He was only a few months older than Nicholas, but he was an audience member below, watching the performances of his second brother and eldest sister.

Probably, it was also because of the problem with the musical instrument that we really couldn’t find a suitable musician in this family.

That's why Maria thought that her husband invited Goethe to stay at the court because she loved music and poetry. In addition, he would invite many musicians in the future, not that he also liked music.

Therefore, the prince will not participate in the performance, and Maria has been looking for suitable people to join the quartet.

It's just that Solovyov's injury has not healed yet, and the instrument he used is indeed strange.

"Misha, why can't you use another instrument?"

"Maria" Solovyov called these sisters-in-law, which has never been the case, and he subconsciously said it, which made the dark-hearted Maria very useful, "I have no talent for playing the piano. At my age, it’s probably too late for me to learn the bayan and balalaika, or the guitar, maybe I can try the Khitan suona. It’s quite exciting.”

Fortunately, Maria didn't bring him such an instrument, so he just wanted to play the balalaika.

Otherwise, he really wants to take his whole life to a new level.

Since censorship of books and newspapers can’t be done, let’s use suona, and music is obviously not easy to censor.

Moreover, he didn't like the boy William very much. Although he had no objection to children, what would some people do in the future?

You say you want him to come back, but his grandson still knows how to pay wages to the workers. He has contact with the workers in Moabit District and knows something about the suffering of the people. It is better not to come back, or not to go there at all.

As for Charlotte, when she first came here, she was very polite even to the barons whose status was far lower than hers, unlike the Prussian princes who were a bit reserved.

Indeed, the men of the Hohenzollern family are somewhat dignified.

Charlotte's biggest advantage is that although she is young, she is very sensible and well-behaved, which really made her a good impression.

Moreover, after Solovyov put on his coat, Prince William and Princess Charlotte could see the medal hanging on his chest.

"Baron, it seems that you have also received an award from your father."

"This was a reward for the battle at Eylau, but we couldn't drive the French away and they hung around there for a long time."

"But you are amazing, and you are also injured. You are also a brave knight, otherwise you would not have won so many medals."

What Charlotte said: Solovyov is indeed a warrior who can fight well and earn medals.

As for the little girls from Prussia, they often see the Junkers around them.

But these people, all of them seem to be militants at ordinary times, but they are not very useful during the war.

"If the queen mother can invite you to be a general."

"But I am a Russian and cannot serve as a general in Prussia, and I have no German blood at all. Especially with such green eyes, I am either a descendant of those Lithuanians in the forest, or I came from the Caucasus, both Very dangerous guy."

"Okay, Misha, stop teasing the children here. We have never seen you on the battlefield, so you are not that scary."

Maria's words brought him back when he was having an awkward chat with Princess Charlotte.

"What do I look like, Your Highness?"

You can talk more closely with Prince William and Princess Charlotte, but you still have to be more "respectful" with Maria, although Maria always wants to be more ambiguous with him.

"What do you look like?"

"The Baron looks like a cat to me. My mother had a cat with eyes like this."

"That must be a cat imported from Türkiye, it looks like I might be an Ankara cat or something."

Fortunately, he doesn't have heterochromatic eyes, otherwise he would be a Persian cat on a German ship.

As for his standing and walking posture, these aristocratic children have always described him as an angry Tom.

"Speaking of it, it's really similar. Okay, Misha, it's time for us to get ready for rehearsal."

At this moment, Prince William didn't have a chance to say a word.

Of course, he was a little cautious, but he still admired the Russian baron who was so capable of fighting and fought hard in battle.

After all, he is the second-in-line heir, and he is also a leader in the army, such as Prince Heinrich, the younger brother of King Frederick, or Prince Louis Ferdinand who died in battle, and Reca Mrs. Mill's rumored boyfriend August is a coward.

He would not have thought that through a series of coincidences, he would have the opportunity to become the old Emperor William.

But looking at the current situation, it is indeed difficult to say. The direction of history is slowly beginning to be out of control, like a wild donkey running wild.

But he didn't know what to say, so he could only hold the flute like this.

As for the flute, it was the usual instrument of the men of the Hohenzollern family.

When arranging the music, Maria got worried.

“This is not good”

William's level is indeed relatively average. He is really not good at playing the flute, although this is a traditional skill of the Prussian royal family.

But seeing how strong his cheeks were, Solovyov felt that he might be better suited to play the lama's thing or the trombone, or maybe the trumpet or the suona.

If that doesn't work, it would be more appropriate for William to change his career to a trumpeter, since they all play wind instruments anyway.

"If you're not very good at the flute, Your Highness, what do you think about being a trumpeter?"

"I?"

"Yes, Trumpeter."

However, Solovyov could not imagine that there would be anything strange here.

Maria didn't give him anything to play, especially since the suona was originally introduced from Persia. It's not surprising that the Turks and Arabs often used the suona.

But when it came to replacing this musical instrument for Prince William, he was the only one present who knew that this thing was too distracting, as he had mentioned before.

"How about this?"

At this time, Solovyov had no time to stop Maria's whims, and she really gave the suona to William.

"This is great. I'm afraid I'm going to see a strange sight I've never seen before." But I can only think about it in my heart. Solovyov didn't say it out loud. If the child's parents saw this scene, I don’t know how embarrassed I will feel.

However, since Maria gave birth to a child, she has become very good at coaxing both older and younger children. She has experienced this feeling since she became a mother.

After she prepared it for William, she didn't expect that this boy was really suitable for this instrument.

After hearing the prince play like this, people can't help but have some strange thoughts.

For example, Weiwei Yixiao can have a good relationship with Ottoman, and there is some racial talent in it. But Russia has always been the third Rome, and Balalaika is put together with Roman "Gale", which is a bit strange.

Even Solovyov had a somewhat strange idea.

That is, handing some strange music directly to Prince William may have some wonderful use in the concert Maria wants.

If it were performed, the effect would probably be unforgettable.
