Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

Chapter 567 The good news is that the whole family is going to Paris to visit relatives

Solovyov did not bring Madame Recamier to Stockholm. After all, her belly was getting bigger and bigger and she could not bear to sail on the sea, so he returned to St. Petersburg.

Although Katya had some minor complaints about what her husband did, after all, she recognized Julie as the lover that her husband could have, so she was very generous.

She has always admired Her Majesty the Queen, so she is willing to adopt this way of getting along with her. As for what happened to her husband in the past,
Of course, she also knew that although her husband was unfaithful, he was still very caring towards her. She even asked a tailor to make a cloak with silk material, bought jewelry and specialties in Stockholm, and often wrote back to her, except for the period before the sea expedition.

As for now, she also has to take care of Madame Recamier, who treats her as a younger sister. After all, there is a dozen years difference in age between them, and she has spoken French very well since she was a child.

The relationship between the two is still very harmonious, and there is no hostility.

St. Petersburg is a harmonious place.

The house was very quiet, and there were letters from my father and stepmother.

My stepmother wants to visit France and visit my cousin at the same time.

Although Josephine was already the queen and had a noble status, she still took good care of her relatives. Even though Paulina always called her "Old Josephine", it was just a verbal quarrel and nothing too unexpected happened.

Josephine had to take care of her own relatives, and there were also people in the Bonaparte family who needed her care, after all, her daughter married Louis, the younger brother of her current husband.

In addition, there were relatives of her ex-husband, the Beauharnais family, and family members in the West Indies who gave the Solovyov family the title of count. Napoleon also told Josephine about this after he returned.

She really wanted to see her long-lost cousin. She was the youngest among all her cousins. Josephine's memory of her was probably that of the little girl who took a boat to a monastery in France to attend school.

This time, when he wrote to his brother-in-law, who was much older than him, he was indeed inviting his family to visit Paris.

The best thing would be to call that promising but non-blood-related nephew, after all, he has a good relationship with his son Eugene. He was busy with military duties and did not attend the meeting between the two emperors before, regarding the Erfurt incident.

Now, Solovyov's status has been further promoted, which is really due to his own military achievements.

Not only was he promoted to lieutenant general, he also received a new medal and served as the commander of the garrison in Stockholm, which was like getting an experience card of the Swedish Supreme King.

However, he had no interest in this. After presiding over the voting process of the Swedish Parliament and ensuring that Frederica's son Crown Prince Gustav became king, he would return to St. Petersburg.

The letters from my father and stepmother still need to be taken seriously. My father is old, but he has been working hard to manage the family property.

As for my stepmother, although she has always been taking care of the housework, when she first married my father, she was keen on finding a wife for me throughout St. Petersburg. Later, she also helped me take care of my family, and the relationship between this family is very good.

The most important thing is that her cousin is the Queen of France, which creates a wonderful relationship.

At this time, a letter came from home saying that Aunt Josephine invited the whole family to visit Malmaison. Although it was a good thing, he was not happy at all.

After all, it didn't matter if others didn't know. He was sure that his uncle was going to divorce his aunt. Although his aunt still maintained her status as the Queen of France, she would always have to marry a new wife.

As for the departure time, it has not been determined yet. After all, the situation in Europe is still very delicate.

If we have to fight a war, that would not be good.

After all, in 1809, there was the Fifth Anti-French Coalition, and Russia and France even had an alliance. Even those who opposed France were mainly Austria and Britain, and it had little to do with other countries.

If there is a war, although it will not affect the transit from Prussia, it will still have some impact.

After the voting was completed and the parliament finally confirmed that Crown Prince Gustav was elected as the new King of Sweden with a unanimous vote, and confirmed the peace treaty with Russia and several other matters, he returned to St. Petersburg.

Most of the family now live in the four-story building on the canal embankment, while Katya lives in the Dolgorukov family's official residence with her children and Madame Recamier.

Anyway, Solovyov's father-in-law lives in Moscow and usually doesn't come here.

When he came back, he would first go home to be with his wife and lover.

But after he returned home, the situation in Europe was obviously like a barometer. It was still spring, but Vienna was eager to declare war on France.

"We can't leave right now. Aunt Queen has invited our whole family to come over, including my lovely little baby."

After saying this, Solovyov did not forget to kiss his lovely children.

The son is fine, but the daughter will cry loudly when he holds her, and then there will be a chain reaction.

At this time, Madame Recamier held little Lisa in her arms, and this is when the role of a mature woman was reflected.

But Katya would blush sometimes. Although she had a good figure, it was still a little behind the majestic chest of pregnant Madame Recamier, whom she called "Sister Julie".

If there is any reference, it is probably the work of David and his students around 1810, a woman on a small lounge chair. She is not wearing any clothes, but she has big breasts and a big butt, and her figure is still very good.

Children are always addicted to broad-mindedness, even if it is not their mother's. Now things are different.

"It seems that children still prefer to be cuddled."

Katya herself was holding her son, and things were more peaceful now, but little Lisa was still in a more comfortable position.

However, this comfort is based on Madame Récamier's belly, that is, the brother or sister in the lady's belly is Katya's little lounge chair.

"Weren't you very good at coaxing children in the past?"

The lady did not forget to joke with him and sat back on the chaise longue.

This thing is named after her last name and has been kept in the fashion industry. "But these are my own children. When I was in the palace, I was always in the corridor with those children, even if they were just a few months old, they had some impression of me. After these two children were born, I was away from home for a long time, and I was worried that the children would forget me."

As for the fact that he turned around and hugged his son again, this posture could be said to be very professional. At first glance, he was a "parenting general" who had held children many times. However, he couldn't take out anything powerful, and he was not afraid of mice.

"He's a boy after all. I hope he can be like me in the future."

"Having Sister Julie is enough. If you were outside, I would understand, but I would also be jealous and angry."

"Of course I know, Katya. Since the Austrians are going to war, I will stay at home for a while, and I don't have any appointments now, so I will accompany you well and let the children get to know me better. And..."

Madame Récamier looked at it, and then she held little Lisa in her arms and stroked her belly.

"I hope it's a girl, and I will raise her myself then, so you don't have to worry so much."

"Children's education is also very important. You know what happened to me in Paris."

Of course, even if Solovyov didn't say it, Madame Recamier and Katya were actually allied, and they would exchange information.

"That can't be helped. There are always disagreements. And you also wrote a letter to give your opinions on the education of Demid Leclerc, the son of Princesse Borghese and her ex-husband."

"This is inevitable. After all, this kid is Giuseppe's brother. Besides, this circle is pretty confusing."

For Solovyov, going to Paris might be more troublesome because of the turmoil between his wife and three lovers. If there are other situations, the fun might be even greater.

However, since Vienna has declared war, it is a good thing that I cannot leave. I can enjoy family life at home if the time is long enough.

Let alone Mrs. Recamier, Katya is still young and in good health. Considering Solovyov has been staying out for so long and he is not willing to find an unfamiliar woman,
This would still avoid some troubles. After he came back, his preparation idea was also approved by the Royal Medical Association. After all, for many nobles, the most serious trouble they could get into when they went out was probably bringing back the Spanish disease caused by spirochetal infection.

But research also takes some time. He stayed at home for a few days, and finally made the children familiar with their father. Then he returned to the palace to continue serving as an attendant general.

In any case, the commander of the Finnish division is only a temporary appointment, and someone will take over later.

When he returned to the palace, he was quickly received by Alexander and his promotion to lieutenant general went smoothly. However, due to his seniority and the recommendation system, he would not be considered for promotion to general of infantry in the next few years.

"That's not bad, Misha. You are now a lieutenant general. I can send you to a certain direction as the commander-in-chief in the future."

"Your Majesty, I am just too young for this kind of thing."

Alexander didn't like the pleasantries he was saying and chose to interrupt his chant immediately.

"This is my decision. You are fully capable of serving as a commander-in-chief in a secondary direction, or commanding a legion. Although your father-in-law, Prince Vasily, is also a lieutenant general, his ability is far inferior, and he later transferred to the Privy Council. As for some of the senior lieutenant generals, I don't want to say anything, they don't have that ability. Therefore, I have also made a decision that you need to do some important things, such as going abroad as an envoy, or going somewhere to be an inspector."

As for the diplomatic mission abroad, Solovyov clearly saw that the memorial in Alexander's hand was about China.

"Your Majesty, could it be..."

Although there were many important rules in Alexander's court, there was no red tape and rigid rules like those in the British court. This was done for the sake of work efficiency and the civilian style that Alexander personally preferred.

After all, as a Tsar, the head of the reactionary monarchs, and the most outstanding actor in St. Petersburg, he always said that he would give the people a constitution, and then take his wife and daughters to live a happy secluded life on the banks of the Rhine. He was content to watch his daughters grow up safely and healthily, and each of them marry a promising husband.

Thus he allowed Solovyov's finger to point at the memorial without rebuking him.

And he reacted very quickly. He knew that Solovyov had good eyesight and could often notice details. This time it was the memorial related to China.

"Ah, nothing. The Khitan emperor has replied, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not yet given a conclusion. Here is a copy. Come and see what's going on. If we are talking about Khitan knowledge, it would be more appropriate to talk to you."

After reading it, Solovyov knew that it was an imperial edict, that is, an imperial decree from Emperor Jiaqing.

Wow, the words in it are very high-sounding, but the main point is that since the Russian monarch has sent people to clarify the misunderstanding and has been humble and has resumed tribute, the Celestial Empire will naturally not care and will not reduce the reward. It also suggests that the "Russian monarch" should implement benevolent policies and so on.

Damn, Solovyov almost laughed when he saw it. Maybe Jiaqing knew that Alexander and Louisa had a bunch of lovely daughters, but no sons. This also means that the "Russian monarch" is also roughly familiar with etiquette, so he can be considered to have many children and good fortune, but the degree of "benevolent rule" is not enough.
Solovyov was very clear about what the connection was. Genetics had nothing to do with benevolent government.

Alexander saw his expression and quickly noticed something was wrong.

"Misha, you should understand. Don't be like those people in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and hide anything from me."

"Your Majesty, I can only say that the Khitan Emperor treated us as tribute just like Bukhara and Khwarezm, but because we were of a higher status than the Khitan's 'superior country', he gave us a lot of treasures in return. The following is the list, and there is also a jade statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva. Perhaps the Emperor also knows the special situation of our country, and Guanyin Bodhisattva is very effective in praying for children."

The problem with Jiaqing was that he had too many bad rules, unlike Qianlong who was a little more lenient towards the unreasonable British.

But he is not a bad person. Although these rewards are not many in number, they are very precious, and are even much more valuable than the "tribute" from Russia.

"It seems that we should thank the emperor for his kindness."

"Yes, Your Majesty. But I think that the visit to Khitan is not the most important thing right now."

"Yes, the most important thing is my sister's marriage. Katish is really unfortunate. She lost her Mikhail and now has to decide her lifelong affairs."

When Solovyov heard this, he felt something was wrong. Mentioning this matter in front of him somewhat involved his aunt, the queen.

Trouble, what a trouble. (End of this chapter)
