Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

Chapter 445 022 Solovyov also works illegally in the Yelgava Palace

The Russian army finally ended the battle, but after separating from the Prussian army, the three sides stopped their troops in various places. The French army camped near the Eylau battlefield for a week, the Russian army circled near the border, and the Prussian army went to Friedland. Yes, that's the place.

Since Solovyov was the highest-ranking officer injured in the headquarters, he was arranged to rest in the rear this time.

He was accompanied by Bagration's adjutant Davydov along the way.

"why is it you again?"

"Why, you don't welcome me?"

"Just being with you, I don't know who is the big mouth that spreads all these weird things."

Having said that, Davydov was indeed a little embarrassed.

So, he was on the sled and he made it very clear.

"I won't spread the story between you and that French woman. After all, many people know about it."

This guy is really bad at talking and has a big mouth.

As for Madame Récamier, she was indeed quite close to him, but since she was already engaged to little Katya, she had to be more restrained in such matters. Even if her future father-in-law knew about it, he would probably ignore it given his romantic nature.

After all, this guy still attaches great importance to feelings when he is with a woman who is mutually attracted to him. This should be better for his daughter.

This is to be considered that marrying the granddaughter of Prince Krimsky would have great benefits in the army, and such a promising young general would not destroy his own future.

Moreover, being amorous is always a characteristic of these generals nowadays. For example, Arakcheev, who neglects his wife to favor the housekeeper, should be a relatively rare weirdo.

The Jelgava Palace is now packed with people. This is because the Prussian royal family has come here to avoid the war. In addition, there is also the family of the Duchy of Saxony-Weimar who has come here to seek refuge.

Because her husband came with her, Maria also stayed in the Jelgava Palace. She did not run away to St. Petersburg with her children like her second sister.

As for Jelgava, many generals who were wounded in the war were now staying there, some of whom were nobles with high titles. This meant that the prospects for the war ahead were not very optimistic.

More and more officers were pulled over on sleds, but not many were pulled into the palace.

But Maria saw Solovyov's face from behind the window.

Actually, she still had some favorable impression of this guy who had served as a guard officer and aide-de-camp in the palace, just as she had in the past.

But seeing him with bandages on and looking not too well, I was indeed a little worried.

Therefore, she also went to the hall accompanied by her maid.

As for her husband, she knew that her husband was gentle, even a little cowardly, and a good man, but it was just a marriage for marriage and they lived together as a couple. As for true love?
She was quite envious of the close relationships between her two sisters and their husbands. Her own husband was somewhat taciturn. If she was like her fourth sister Catherine, who had a close relationship with the third son of Peter Dolgorukov's family, even the Queen Mother would indulge her. Apart from having an affair with that prince, basically all they could do was hold hands and kiss.

Anna was still young and didn't know what her future marriage would be like. She was the only one who was most favored by her father, but in the end it was her mother who arranged her marriage, which was not what Paul had imagined at the time.

In this situation, since she had given birth to a legitimate son for her husband, she was somewhat more relaxed about herself, even a little slack.

When Solovyov saw her, he could indeed feel through her skirt that she had gained weight and her butt might have become bigger.
Moreover, he had not noticed it before. If Davydov had not been making jokes to him along the way and teasing him about his affair with Madame Recamier, he would not have noticed that the prince who had made him work illegally in the past had actually been bullying him all along and had been interested in him.

Even Catherine, because of her close relationship with her brother, did not dare to act so openly with her lover.

But Maria could take advantage of Solovyov's frequent duty in the palace to exploit his labor.

However, it was indeed heartbreaking to see him wrapped in bandages.

In this case, Maria just held his hand and said, "Misha, how are you injured?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. My condition is not serious, but for those of us who have just returned from the military camp, it is better for the women to stay away from us. We don't know what pathogens they might bring. I heard that the son you gave birth to, the little prince, is not in good health, but..."

"Okay, stop talking. I know you're doing this for our own good."

Maria’s weakness was probably her children, especially her son, who was weak and sickly.

Moreover, she had somewhat misunderstood Solovyov's thoughts, as this guy was seriously considering hygiene issues.

But Maria's understanding was still more or less the same as it was in the palace. When she wanted to flirt with Misha and force him to work illegally, he would not refuse.

In addition, Solovyov looks like Madame Le Brun's brother, the playwright Mr. Vigee, but after so many years, he looks just enlarged in proportion, and after becoming a general, he just became stronger and taller.

However, considering his performance on the battlefield, this is still a cute and fierce Russian tiger. Even Napoleon's old guards would not be afraid of him.

However, he still has such a natural nemesis.

As for Maria, she is still like when she was a child and can let the general work for her at will. She is over 20 years old, but still has the attitude of a little girl.

Of course, it was not surprising that she did this. In the Jelgava Palace, apart from the cowardly king and strong queen of Prussia and their litter, there was no one familiar.

If her son hadn't been always sick, she would have taken the child back to St. Petersburg.

Seeing Soloviev, I felt closer.

Davydov on the side was quite smart this time. After all, this guy was also his friend. Although he was a big talker, he would not spread his friend's affairs.

Of course, with Maria's status, if he hadn't taken into consideration his friend's upcoming marriage and his ability to be rescued, there must have been some effort behind the scenes by Solovyov to protect him.

This guy's big mouth caused trouble in the capital, and he wrote essays and poems all day long to mock nobles. If he was not a registered noble in Borodino and had so many friends in St. Petersburg, he would have brought himself into even greater trouble, such as being discharged from service like Yermolov, or having to spend time in a military prison like some people.

You know, being involved in defamation means being transferred or dismissed, but you can still remain in active service.

But if we have to charge you with treason, even though Paul and Alexander both dislike killing people, and they were communicating with the Kazakhs in Orenburg and going to Irkutsk to dig apples, it is still possible.

As for Solovyov coming to the Jelgava Palace to recuperate, this was a favor given to him by the Tsar himself. Apart from this, he had previously submitted a memorial to develop Rossburg, which was to exile some nobles and civil servants there to serve as governors.

I am afraid that some Poles will have to take this journey again.

After all, Czartoryski still didn't let go of Louisa's child, and even made a strange request to elope to North America. Alexander almost confirmed that his friend had cheated on his wife and had a daughter.
Although this was done by Solovyov last year, not his neighbor, Little Poland, this guy is indeed short-sighted.

If he had not been Amalia's matchmaker, Alexander would really have sent his buddy to replace Duke Enghien as governor of the Rossburg territory.

As for the North American territory, it was obvious that Alexander was in a state of uncertainty as to whether to attach importance to it or not.

Because of this, Davydov still respected this friend to some extent, and even listened to him, trying to complain less in his poems. The recent book and newspaper censorship was quite troublesome.

As for Solovyov himself, he still had some troubles.

Therefore, even the Liangshan heroes who might be easily mistaken for the Liangzan heroes were still worried that they might be mistaken for encouraging Pugachev's behavior.

After all, in addition to deindustrializing Izhevsk, Pugachev also claimed that he wanted to be recruited and was willing to serve as a general under Paul.
No matter how you look at it, Tsarist Russia and the Qing Dynasty seem to be half brothers.

Because of this incident, he started to work on other things.

For example, when he felt that his injuries were recovering relatively quickly and would not cause a major breakout, he would get a balalaika and run to the yard to sing songs.

But last time it was a troika, and I sang Kalinka with the veterans of the Selenge Regiment, but this time, it was a peddler.

However, when he sang this song now, he somewhat missed his fiancée.

This person has both advantages and disadvantages. He is very sentimental. Although little Katya looks like a younger sister, Louisa asked the Stroganovs to act as matchmakers, so he has to marry this daughter-in-law.

Moreover, little Katya has a good figure. She is not as tall as the girls in the palace, but her legs are very long.

However, he overlooked one point. Although Maria was married, her habits had not changed at all.

Of course, now she is still in the stage of enjoying this kind of ambiguous relationship. Raising Paul's daughter in pairs brings up this kind of trouble, as their personalities and habits are interconnected.

Catherine likes to have an ambiguous relationship with the general on duty, her cousin-in-law Prince Bagration. She also has a true lover, who is a noble of this level. She is not even interested in going abroad to become a queen, and wants to be with "reckless brother Misha".

Solovyov is a man with too many thoughts. That's his name, but Ekaterina prefers straightforward cavalry officers.

Although he was missing Katya, the sound of the balalaika seduced Masha.

As for the songs he sang, they were indeed quite interesting.

"Aren't you injured?"

"Your Highness, why are you here in the yard at this hour? I was only scratched by a French bayonet. Although the wound is scary, it's not serious. Look, I'm fine."

"You still like music, Mishka. And now you use traditional instruments instead of playing guitar."

"I learned this from the veterans of the Selenge Regiment, where I served as a regiment commander. In this campaign, they also joined the battle with me."

"Although you are brave, you still have to be careful. I know you officers. Or rather, you are still like this even though you are a general now."

After saying this, Maria reached out to Solovyov's arm.

"Let me see, is that okay?"

"I just changed the medicine. Besides, the yard isn't too cold. It's quite secluded here."

Moreover, the terrain is flat, so there will be no embarrassing situation like Louisa falling down.

"I also want to thank you. It was the herbal formula you left behind that saved my son and brought down his fever."

"Your Highness is getting better, which is a blessing. However, you are wearing such thin clothes, don't catch a cold, it's not good for the child."

"You're not married yet, yet you're so skilled at taking care of people."

"My stepmother is always having children, and besides that, I'm out there, which is also something that many people can't avoid."

"If your status had not always been like this, you would have relied on your military achievements to advance, or you would have at least been an earl."

Maria's words made Solovyov a little embarrassed.

"I was singing and thinking of Katya. I don't know what to say, but I'm engaged to the granddaughter of Prince Krimsky, the daughter of Vasily Vasilyevich."

"That little girl, such a well-behaved and sensible girl, is the fiancée of a bad guy like you. You are such a bad guy, a thief who specializes in stealing people's hearts."

Even a fool could understand what Maria said.

"Your Highness, however, you are already married, and I am about to start a family, so sometimes we still have to be careful about the impact, especially since you are the wife of the Crown Prince of Saxe-Weimar and will be the Duchess in the future."

"It's nothing serious. My husband has always been like that. Even if something really happens, it won't matter. Didn't you see similar things when you were in the palace?"

"Can"

Solovyov now knew that he often took advantage of Louisa, and he had no way to refute Maria. Instead, he was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say.

"Just like that time, in the palace."

Solovyov realized that when he was a "nanny" in the palace, he was not as majestic as when he was a master to Nikolai and Mikhail. Instead, he seemed more tolerant and loving.

Therefore, Anna, who was a complete child, and the daughter born to Louisa, both had close contact with him.

Maria is acting like a little kid, which is really troublesome, and she even kisses him on the cheek.

"You guys, you still need to help me with the music like you did before. Otherwise..."

She is still the same, pink cut, completely black-bellied.
