Chapter 11: Court guard

Franz, standing under the spotlight, was even busier, and he was exhausted by the continuous entertainment. No way, this is the aristocratic life in Vienna.

His younger brother, Massimiliano, who appeared to be in and out of these occasions, seemed to be at ease. Instead of feeling tired, he enjoyed it and made Franz envious.

Communication has never been a strength of Franz, especially in the face of a bunch of dedicated aristocrats, making him have to be vigilant at all times.

"Prince, tonight you have to attend the Grand Duke Louis' banquet. You can go now!" Reminded the maid Jenny.

"Okay, ask Massimilino to set off together!" Franz ordered

"Yes, Grandpa!" Jenny answered.

If it were not for his mother's strong intervention, Franz would not mind bringing the other two younger brothers together. When dealing with noble girls, at least they can share most of the firepower.

Unfortunately, the other two younger brothers are too young. Mrs. Sophie would not allow them to attend such occasions, and Franz did not want to lower the age line of the banquet.

You know, they are much more attractive to the noble ladies than Franz. The Crown Prince's status gave Franz a higher status, and it was also doomed that his marriage must be a political marriage.

In contrast, his younger brothers are much more free in marriage, and there is no problem in marrying these big nobles in China.

...

Looking at Massimilino, who had a good conversation with a group of aristocratic girls, Franz pulled him out and joked, "How about, has my brother encountered the other half of my heart?"

Massimilino responded unwillingly: "Dear brother, if I said yes, would you guess if Mrs. Sophie would return ..."

Franz laughed: "Really? Dear brother, for your lifelong happiness, I don't mind being scolded, but can you handle the pressure?

Today, the aristocratic lady here is much older than you. Do you have an oedipal complex?

God, Massimilino you are so amazing, actually ... "

"Stop, my dear brother, if you go on, my whole name will be ruined!" Massimilino quickly stopped.

This little joke is not the first time for the two.

"Wait for a bunch of flies for me, I'll talk to Archduke Louis!" Franz said solemnly

"Well, I know you have nothing wrong with me!"

Massimilino made a ridiculous expression, and Franz rolled his eyes in disdain.

How could a noble banquet attended by Franz be a simple banquet? If it wasn't for the sake of covering people's eyes, he would be too lazy to entertain.

...

"Dear Prince Louis, I want you to support me in the control of the Palace Guard!" Franz opened the door and saw the road

"God! My little Franz, why do you have this idea? You know that you are only 16 years old and under 17 years old!" Said Grandpa Louise in surprise.

As the Crown Prince, it is not difficult to want the army to hang around, but it is not so easy to really control an army, especially Franz is less than 17 years old.

Therefore, he can only step down and win the command of the Palace Guard. Although the number of this unit is not large, the combat effectiveness is also a question mark, but this is the only thing Franz can get.

"Uncle Louis, you know that I loved the military from an early age, and my dream was to be a real general!

But my identity cannot be developed in the army for a long time, and now I can only enjoy the court guard. Franz explained

Duke Louis shook his head and said, "It's impossible. You have to know that the Palace Guard is very important. You haven't proven your ability. If you really want to be a general, you can join the city defense!"

What does the Austrian City Defence Force look like? Is Franz still unclear? Known as the concentration camp for generals, it is said to be the only unit in Austria with more officers than soldiers.

According to the tradition of the German region, nobles must enter the army to serve in adulthood, otherwise they will be condemned by public opinion.

The Austrian imperial nobility also came from the German region, and this tradition has been preserved. But after all, the Austrian empire has decayed. For these noble masters, we have to open our eyes and close our eyes.

Except for those who are really interested in developing the army, most of them entered the army for gilding. It was absolutely uneasy for Archduke Louis to let Franz take charge of this army.

Franz frowned and said, "Uncle Louis, are you sure this isn't pitting me? What do the city defense forces do? Don't you know? Even if Grand Duke Carl went to battle in person, there is no way to take them, you think I can What? "

The window paper was ripped apart, and the treacherous grandfather Louis had no change in his face.

"Franz, don't be angry. Isn't this a test for your young people? If you can get even the city defense forces, what else is there that you can't do?"

This remark may be useful in the second half of the year. Unfortunately, Franz is no longer, and he will not know that the sky is thick because of a few touts.

"Uncle Louis, this is not impossible, as long as you order to retire all the gilded aristocrats inside, I will go to the city defense army!" Franz pretended to be angry

"Frantz, this is impossible. Even Her Majesty the Emperor, there is no way to get them off!" Said Archbishop Louis helplessly.

"So, I can't go to the city defense forces, or the court guard is suitable for me, uncle Louis, wouldn't you be reluctant!" Franz said angrily.

"how is this possible!"

"Well, Franz, you can enter the Palace Guard, but the coach position cannot be given to you. Now you are too young, you have to practice for a few years!" Archduke Louis retreated.

"This **** age! Well, then I will wait a few more years!" Franz pretended to be helpless

His purpose has been achieved. The Palace Guard, or the Guards, is different from other troops. They are only loyal to the royal family.

For Franz, it is not necessary to be the commander-in-chief of this unit. Under normal circumstances, the commander is the emperor himself, or he appoints members of the royal family.

Now that this unit is in the hands of the Regent's Committee, Archduke Louis serves as the head coach, and Franz enters it as the Crown Prince. Naturally, someone will volunteer.

He had already expressed his attitude, and he was too determined to enter the Palace Guard. Even if Prince Louis was dissatisfied, he could not really prevent Franz from entering.
