Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

Chapter 600 Caught a Shark Named Metternich

When the "little goblin" saw Solovyov, she knew what kind of person he was, so she tried her best to be more steady, but she still couldn't change her habit of acting like a spoiled child.

However, she could still do her part in acting cute, but she didn't expect to hook Metternich.

By the way, she also had contact with Louis Ferdinand, the young Prussian musician prince who was stabbed to death by the French army with sabers.

These Prussian princes, except King FW, all liked other people's women. King FW had poor control over his own family, but he still got a great beauty - it was just that because of giving birth to too many children, Queen Louise was a little "fat".

The rest of the stories of philandering can be connected from Ireland to Khitan. When Clausewitz was an aide to Prince August, he had been a doorman when he was dating Madame Recamier.

However, Madame Récamier likes to maintain ambiguity and is always close yet distant to the men she dates. This hazy feeling is obviously experienced on a spiritual level.

We have to thank these awkward princes, but the "little goblin" also said that for her, Louis Ferdinand decisively ended his relationship with the princess of a small state like the Territory of Solmes.

But not long after that, he withdrew from the scene, and until his death he had never even been able to cuddle, let alone kiss.

The "little fairy" is now so intimate with Solovyov, but they look more like best friends or siblings.
Others might be jealous that such a beautiful and lovely lady was very close to her husband's junior fellow apprentice, but it made Solovyov look a little embarrassed.

".How come you told me all these things? Your husband is my senior. We are both disciples of the Grand Marshal. What will happen if I let something slip and someone reveals it when I go back?"

"At least I'm better than that bad woman Helen. I came with my family property, and even if we don't have children, my husband will love me very much. He is the kind of knight who is loyal to his oath. What's more, our marriage is arranged by Uncle Paul. I have to thank you, but you know what?"

Although this "size issue" had caused Solovyov to shudder at the "little fairy" when they were asking each other about it before marriage,
Metternich, the old fox, was lustful and had strong desires, a typical finance minister, but the foreign minister always had financial problems.

He had both, but he was not as greedy as Talleyrand.

Talleyrand was greedy and lustful, while he was lustful and greedy. The former could repeatedly extort millions of francs through his mistresses, while the latter liked women, especially beautiful women.

However, his.
"If you tell me this, it might be a little more 'private'."

"I just want to tell you that you must report everything to my cousin the emperor!"

"This is also the bump on the rat's tail."

"what does that mean?"

"Well, mice aren't very big to begin with. The only rodent that's bigger is the capybara, and there may be larger ones. But I have a gift for you."

He always interrupted her and actually took out a small box. When he saw the "little fairy", she still liked beautiful clothes and very delicate small jewelry, and the jewelry didn't have to be too big.

This is a pair of silver earrings inlaid with crystals. They are not expensive but look very delicate.

“Though such little things are not expensive, they look exquisite.”

"I'm a little tired of wearing those expensive jewels, including my favorite wedding crown. Maybe this little thing is more suitable."

Well, with this handmade cotton from India, it sure looks good.
"But I think you are still in some danger in Vienna. You don't understand intelligence, even though your father was a diplomat stationed in Naples."

Solovyov really wanted to complain, but whether he wanted to or not, he had to push her back into the recliner first.

"I have seen the world since I was a child, unlike you, who is so smart and talented but still a country boy from Ryazan."

This was a half-joking statement. Solovyov could tolerate her insolence, but not too much.

"Well, then, how do you plan to influence Metternich? My friend Count Nesselrode admires him very much. He has some charm for both men and women, and is very good at socializing. If you fall into the so-called passion, you may get into some trouble."

"I won't lose to that Duchess! Besides, she is useless, unlike me, who can be a mouthpiece."

She felt that she was fine, but Solovyov was very worried.

Although it sounded like the "little goblin" used his body to hook a greedy fox, he couldn't judge Metternich's style.

It would be a shame for me if such a good bait was swallowed by Metternich.

Of course, the "little fairy" always does things that are excessive, and people around her are always aware of this.

As long as I promise not to go to bed with her or kiss her, there is still a way to prevent her even if she always tries to get into my arms like a cunning white cat.

Bagration also believed in himself, and he only regarded the "little goblin" as a friend he had known for a long time, and didn't care about any other additions.

"Just lie down and rest. I'm worried that your activeness will affect your health and beauty!"

Then, she would be quiet for a while.

Solovyov also heard from Shuvalov that the level of the police and spies in Vienna was surprisingly poor. Unless it was an open and loud conspiracy, they would not be able to find out anything. The efficiency was really too low, even worse than the current Tsarist version of the Lubyanka.

Therefore, he could have a good chat with the "little fairy" here, but when he looked at her face, it was inevitable that such details would be embarrassing.

The topic of discussion was probably the whispers between Metternich and the "little goblin" in bed, which was also part of diplomacy.

Sleeping with foreign women, especially those of high status, generally allows one to exert influence or serve as a mouthpiece in a diplomatic environment like Europe.

"Very good, you are very well behaved now, just keep this attitude."

"It's just that I look a bit like Madame Recamier. She's taller than me. Maybe you like this posture?"

"No, it's just to make it easier for me to talk to you, Kadisch."

"Okay then, that's what I'll do."

She is still cuter in this cute pose, but the important thing is business.

"Did Metternich say anything to you?"

"He is a chatterbox, always talking non-stop."

"How much can you remember?"

"I know you dislike my laziness. But it doesn't matter, I remember everything! Although I don't like studying, I still have some skills in some areas."

"But memories can also be forgotten. Tell me what Metternich's attitude has been recently, so that I can report back. As for your guiding him to oppose Napoleon, he would actually do it without any influence, because he has a close relationship with Talleyrand." "I see, no wonder he said that when I just said a few words about the French."

Solovyov even thought that Metternich might be a liar, but fortunately he was also a striker with good shooting skills.

"Then you have to be careful. This man might just be greedy. He is just looking for an excuse."

Solovyov also planned to teach Kolya some methods to facilitate his contact with the "little goblin" and avoid future
She just stayed in Vienna and was an irresponsible wife and mother. If she was fooled by Metternich's sweet words, it would be like throwing meat buns at a dog.

"If he really is like this"

"Men are always like this. Even I can't avoid having that kind of relationship with Princess Rossano. Paulina, can you tell me?"

"Is there still this?"

"Foreign ministers always have this problem. Many people have women, and there are also intelligence leaks. You should not do too much, providing Count Shuvalov and Kolya with Metternich's itinerary and writing down what he did and said."

"Well, recently he would send his servants to me in advance and leave me a letter, saying that he would come to see me on a certain day."

"That's one thing. When someone comes to visit you, it's best to know his recent itinerary. For example, if you come into contact with the French and go on a long trip to Paris, if you know the itinerary, someone there may know something about it."

A control group can be set up in Paris and Vienna, but the communication is too underdeveloped, and there may be some delay in the transmission of intelligence to St. Petersburg.

However, in wartime, when the front lines of both sides are close, it might be more convenient.

When Solovyov was in Paris, he knew that after becoming Foreign Minister, Metternich would most likely return to Paris, and that there were still some things that needed to be supplemented in the agreement at Schönbrunn Palace.

"so."

"Nothing, Kadisch. Intelligence is not that simple. You can pass on what you heard. Maybe this person will tell some lies."

The "little goblin" probably also knew that men like Metternich were very good at coaxing people, especially whispering in people's ears.

Although Erduo was not pregnant, she was indeed pregnant.

"If he dares to lie to me, I will..."

The cutting action made Solovyov confused.

It would be better for her to maintain her cute persona and not act like this.

"Don't be like this. This line is still very important. If he still wants to do that, you have to keep your distance from him in the name of taking care of the child."

"Misha, I'll listen to you. After all, you're so smart, so you should have a way to deal with this kind of person, right?"

"Unfortunately, no. I don't have a good way to deal with Mr. Talleyrand. I am a soldier, not a diplomat. I can only give you some advice based on the situation I encountered. Just think about the feeling that Madame Recamier maintained before she met me. This kind of ambiguous feeling can also make some people very upset."

Solovyov still had to think of a way for her, and he was not sure whether Metternich would take the bait.

"Okay! But I also know one thing. He told me before that Napoleon will definitely make a fatal mistake, and that will be a good opportunity to defeat France."

"I'm afraid that when this opportunity comes, the Austrians will do the same as the British and join the fight last. Those who fight in the village are always the last to join, and they blow the loudest."

Solovyov only said this much to the "little devil".

Metternich was probably planning to stay in the toilet and wait for this opportunity.

But when the opportunity comes, only countries like Russia and Prussia will be the scapegoats. Whether Austria marries its daughter to Paris or not, it will just stand by and watch.

Austria has a tradition of betraying teammates. Except for Archduke Karl, perhaps the current Austrian senior officials are the kind of people who would betray you to death without fear of causing trouble.

The last time the Austrians betrayed their teammates was during the Second Coalition against France.

Solovyov was with Suvorov at the time and was naturally impressed by this incident.

Moreover, squatting here and waiting for Napoleon to make a mistake is actually an ostrich behavior that seems far-sighted but is actually what humans think.

This foresight is probably still within the God’s perspective.

The forces that France could mobilize at this time included not only the army formed and mobilized by its own country, but also the armies of its vassal states. Although the strength of this "large army" had been weakened to a certain extent, its strength was still there.

In order to weaken Napoleon's power sufficiently, to the point where Austria dares to take action against France, or even take the initiative to attack, in addition to a disaster in Russia, it would probably require a few allies to unite.

If Napoleon had acted more cautiously, the expected situation might not have happened.

In that case, Metternich might become a clown and be attacked by the Austrian nobles who were competing with him for the position of Foreign Minister.

Want to be prime minister in the future? If you fail, it will be impossible.

That was all Solovyov knew.

Although he knew about the "little fairy"'s ability to hook men, it was obviously not that simple for a veteran in diplomacy and love like Metternich.

He also had close ties with Duchess Sagan, the distinguished heiress who was vying for favor with the "White Kitten" (one of the nicknames for the "Little Goblin" in Vienna).

Although she has some relationship with Russia, the distance between them is very far.

By the way, the skull of Armfeldt, the man who seduced her, is now being used as a bowl.

"It has been a pleasant meeting today, but my time in Vienna is limited. Katish, do you want to say something to Peter Ivanovich and the children, or write a letter?"

"I think you can tell him that I still think he's a good person, but I failed him because I was so frivolous. As for the children, do they miss me?"

"Children treat their mothers and fathers differently. Children should still be attached to their mothers. You really haven't done well in Vienna, but fortunately, they are all girls. I can help you do some things when I return home."

Anyway, that's it. (End of this chapter)
