Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

Chapter 131 We are all worried about your marriage being temporarily happy (Part )
September 1800, 9, was the final wedding date, and all the invitations sent out were replied to. The Tsar himself arranged the marriage, and although the prospects were unpredictable, the royal invitation still had to come, which was very important in Paul's court.

There were indeed quite a few guests coming to Gatchina, some from Tsarskoye Selo and some from St. Petersburg via Pavlovsk.

After meeting so many guests, Solovyov realized that the name Kropotkin also means prince?
The inheritance law in Russia is different from that in other countries. No matter how the property is inherited, as long as the son is legitimate, everyone will have this title. It is no wonder that after Petersburg recognized the titles of some Tatars and Georgians, plus the Russian prince title, princes and counts can be seen everywhere on the streets, and barons are even more numerous.

However, Prince Yusupov's family is special. Their family has always had few male descendants, but the family has been shaky and has not been interrupted for several generations.

The "little fairy" is getting married, and all her aunts will come to join in the fun. In addition to Potemkin's four favorite nieces, there are also some other aunts who usually don't come, but this time they have also prepared gifts.

Princess Yusupov's wife was her aunt. This lady was very beautiful, but she was always very simple.

But when her niece was getting married, she was very generous, and the property she inherited from Potemkin was also huge.

"Come here, Katish, this is for you, a ruby ​​necklace. You are the one we sisters love the most. Now that you are getting married, we hope you can be happy."

"Thank you, Aunt Tanya."

This ruby ​​necklace stood out even more against her white dress and the soft silk wedding gown she wore.

"This is really beautiful, auntie. I remember this was left to you by my great uncle."

"Yes, every gem on it is carefully selected."

The Countess jumped directly into her aunt's arms, causing the Princess to stagger.

"Girl, you are not a child anymore. Look at you now. You are prettier than your mother was back then!"

"Okay, Tanya, just spoil her. Her future position will be almost the same as yours!"

"The Princess of Georgia, well, this still requires the approval of His Majesty. After all, the title of Prince of Georgia is only recognized in our country, but it has not been included in the ranks of our country's nobility."

"Yes." The Countess also agreed. Her daughter now became a "foreign princess", although she would have to be recognized in a few years.

After her aunt gave her a set of ruby ​​necklaces, her other two aunts, Varvara and Alexandra, also gave their most beloved niece a treasure each.

By the way, Varvara almost caused Prince Nikolai Volkonsky to lose his job, which was quite strange because Prince Potemkin once wanted Varvara to be his bride, but Prince Nikolai had a bad temper and said that this marriage was not suitable. In the end, his promotion was slow for several years. He should have been promoted to the rank of commander-in-chief long ago, but he was not promoted until he became governor-general.

What Solovyov found strange was that while there was this prince, there were also the characters in the book. This could only be explained by Hegel's "existence is reasonable."

After all, among the officers on duty today was Andrei. Although Solovyov had seen him many times, he had never spoken to him.

Another luxurious carriage entered the palace, and this time it was the aunt of the "little fairy". These old sisters were here today to get together on the pretext of their children's marriage.

"The countess's aunt is here today."

"Yes, Andre, I should have helped on both sides. But I am the officer on duty today, and I am exhausted these past two days."

"It's not easy for you to be caught in the middle."

"That's true. How are you these days, Marshal?"

"My father and sister live in the estate in Smolensk. The countryside there is still very peaceful."

Solovyov still had great respect for the old marshal, but he was curious that the "King of Prussia" in the social scene and Tsar Paul, who preferred the Prussian military system, were actually incompatible in the end.

But he did not ask any more questions, just watched one carriage after another arrive at the Gatchina Palace.

When the ceremony is held in the church, the officers on duty will be withdrawn. After all, the two majors guarding the door are relatives and friends of the man in this marriage.

Solovyov was also a relative of the woman. He even thought that once he got inside, he could only stand, after all, it would be inappropriate to sit anywhere.

"That's what I thought."

"You can learn from Cicero and take two seats."

"I guess I can only sit in the middle, but I can't go on stage yet."

"You want to be the witness?"

"I don't think so. And look at that girl, she's so cute!"

As Solovyov was walking on the road, he saw a petite girl, about fourteen or fifteen years old, walking on the edge of the lawn.

He himself was unconscious, always trying to match people around him up, and he didn't notice who Miss Elizabeth Menina was.

But when Andre saw this petite girl, even though it was the first time he saw her, he felt refreshed. It is indeed rare to find a girl who is so pleasant to look at.

Solovyov thought that he was attracted to the girl, but it was hard to say what would happen to her in the future.

"It's beautiful, isn't it, Mikhail."

"If you like her, you can get to know her first. These girls nowadays are so terrible. I don't know when I should get married."

"If you want to, you should be prepared."

He has not yet entered the plot, but he has already met Lisa, the petite and lovely princess. This girl looks too thin, and a narrow pelvis can easily take the life of such a lovely girl.

But there is no need to worry about the “little fairy”, her little butt is very firm, she is well-nourished and well-developed, but she is a little short.

Now she came to the stage wearing a white wedding dress and the gifts given to her by her aunts: including a ruby ​​necklace, a bracelet inlaid with sapphires and a pair of sapphire earrings.

When Bagration saw her, his resolute face was moved by this delicate face. She came to the stage with a smile on her face. Even the coldest heart would be melted by this warmth.

During the ceremony, after receiving the blessing from the pastor and exchanging rings, the newlyweds will now give each other a gift.

The "little fairy", who had now become the princess of Georgia, gave Bagration a precious sword inlaid with gems. This was a treasure Potemkin had obtained from the Ottoman Empire during the Russo-Turkish War. Bagration saw the sword and liked it very much. It was a sharp Damascus steel saber.

While still on the stage, he replaced his sword and hung this knife around his waist.

"Thank you, Katish. This is a gift I prepared for you. I hope it matches your beautiful face."

Although Bagration looks like this, he is also a tough guy with a soft heart. Solovyov is now thinking about a problem, which is also the fatal problem raised by Langgeron. The difference between this couple is so great that they really don't want to lose the happiness that the Tsar and his wife hope for them because of this difference.

The prince took the box from his brother Alexander and then opened it. Inside was a small crown inlaid with gems and diamonds, which looked very beautiful.

Any young girl would be moved when seeing such a crown, but it is no wonder that the "Queen of Spades" did not like it. It did not match her temperament. Instead, it was very suitable for a girl like the "Little Fairy" who was not yet seventeen years old.

"Would you like to look in the mirror?"

However, the "little fairy" was shown to her little cousin Ekaterina Potemkina, who was only twelve years old and was the daughter of her aunt's first marriage to her uncle Mikhail Potemkin.

"Does it look good to you?"

They were all called Ekaterina, and it was difficult for them to address each other.

"This looks great, cousin."

This child is quite honest and different from her cousins. To be honest, she has a crush on the son of a Swiss banker. Although she does not have the romantic history of her sisters, she has already started this relationship through letters and daily meetings.

"Thank you, too, my dear husband."

Although the prince is a little ugly, after a few days of matchmaking by relatives and friends, she now feels quite satisfied with him.

Although Bagration was like this, the wedding gift he prepared was also to her liking.

However, there was still one thing that worried her. After being frightened by her sister, even if Solovyov tried to persuade her or the female officer explained it to her again and again, she was always a little worried.

Everyone had a great time at the banquet and dance that day.

Solovyov also noticed this time at the ball, and Andrei went to find Miss Menina and they danced together.

In fact, Prince Andrei Solovyov discovered that Andrei actually liked the same type of lively girls.

It's just that Lisa and Natasha grew up in the social world. Such a lively and lovely girl is not very suitable for these serious soldiers. How far they will go depends on their future development.

Although Prince Bagration looked like a very majestic general, he also performed well at the ball.

He and his new wife danced three dances in a row. The "little fairy" was reluctant at first, but now she felt very happy.

What she wants is a worry-free life. How nice it would be if she could always be this happy?

After returning to the bedroom, the newlyweds, according to custom, will live together as husband and wife.

Unlike those ignorant newcomers who still need servants to "guide" them, Bagration is already old enough to guide his young wife.

"Peter, you have to be gentle with me. I feel scared."

"Why are you afraid?"

"Besides the fact that you are a brave general, I am also afraid of pain."

"It's okay, Katish. Let's go take a shower first. The hot water is ready. Once you're all clean, come back here. I don't think you need to be afraid. There will always be such times in life."

The "little devil" now went ahead with a brave face. Fortunately, she remembered what Louisa and a few good sisters said about what would happen. As for Solovyov's words, "girls' bodies are still strong", and the teachings of the maids, she finally washed herself and lay on the bed.

"Kadisch, why are you doing this?"

"Do you like the white silk covering my body?"

"Of course I like you, Katish. You are really a beauty. It is hard to describe your beauty."

Bagration also poked his wife's tiny belly, and the "little goblin" giggled. She was no longer as tense as before and now seemed to be relaxed.

"I thought you were a rough warrior, but I didn't expect you to be so good at talking."

"You can't judge a person by appearance. You must like young and handsome guys. But the monarch's order arranged us together. I have to say that this is also a trick of fate. Because of your liveliness and cuteness, I like you."

The reluctance of the "little goblin" had dissipated, at least for that night, but the gate still had to be opened with a battering ram. At such moments, I was still a little scared, and there were still many times when I was scared.

However, Bagration was not in a hurry, because there were too many girls in the palace who had sprained their feet recently. Before launching this "special military operation", he had to conduct a careful examination. Poking his wife's belly was just to make her happy. After the physical examination was correct, he asked the "little fairy" to set up the crane wing formation.

"If you feel uncomfortable, just shout it out, but don't be too scared, just relax."

However, he did not expect that the tone of the "little goblin's" wail would be so high.

But we can also tell that the other person is very inexperienced and needs to be taken good care of, and this girl did take good care of herself in the past.

His wife now feels that it is not that scary at all. It was her sister who frightened her before. The threat apparently worked and made her very nervous for a while.

If we really compare them, this warrior with a muscular body is definitely better.

She was already a little exhausted. After all, this kind of attack and defense was not a drill, it was all real swords and guns. People who had never been to the battlefield would always worry about getting injured.

"Well, you are no longer a 'new soldier' ​​now, Kadish. I will do my best to make you happy."
