Chapter 116 The Source of Rudolf's Nightmares
"Ernst! Why do you get so many carriages? Where are you going?" Constantine asked, looking at the neat carriages in the yard.
"Father, this is not just after Christmas. I am thinking of visiting the children in the school. They are all orphans and have no families, so I plan to visit them." Ernst replied .
"Well! Well done Ernst, I also want to see these poor children. Just wait a minute. We, father and son, will go to school together." Constantine said.
As nobles, generally speaking, smart nobles have to cultivate their own reputation, such as relieving some disaster victims and vulnerable groups.
Of course, there are also some hard-core roosters who are eager to take away the last bit of savings from the pockets of their subordinates and ruin the reputation of the aristocratic group.
However, most nobles have high IQs, and even if they don’t have love, they can still put on a show.
The royal family of Hechingen has always had a good reputation in Hechingen, and Constantine would also sponsor some Hechingen residents who were living in difficulty during the holidays.
......
The carriage drove slowly, Ernst and Constantine sitting in the carriage.
"Ernst, I know you are busy, but you can't always be busy with work in life. Sometimes you should also care about other things." Constantine came up and started talking to Ernst.
"Uh...Father, can you tell me directly?" Ernst asked.
"Idiot, this is your marriage. How long has it been since you went to see your fiancée?" Constantine said with hatred.
Ernst was stunned for a moment and thought about it carefully. The last time he saw that little girl was when he went to Schönbrunn Palace a few months ago.
"Father, Karina is still young and there is no need to rush. Although I know that you want to have a grandson in a hurry. Anyway, your daughter-in-law can't run away. We will wait a few years before talking." Ernst responded. road.
Karina is only eleven years old this year, and after the Chinese New Year, she will only be twelve. At such a young age, Ernst treats her as a little girl, but Ernst himself is not very old, and this is a political marriage. , I don’t reject it in my heart. Anyway, I won’t get married in a few years, so don’t worry too much.
"Bad boy! Do you think I am an impatient person? Although I am older, I have never panicked no matter how big things happened in my life. If you hadn't been My son, I don’t care about your business!” Constantine said.
“As someone who has been there, I want to share my life experience with you. Your mother and I were also married politically at the beginning, and we had no feelings before we got married. However, as your mother and I gradually got along, we became attracted to each other. Attraction, slowly discovering the other person's strengths, even if Jenny died, I didn't remarry, I brought you up alone.
So people's feelings are developed slowly, even if they are just a piece of cake. A stone can hold heat in your arms, let alone a human heart!
Of course, I know that the slogan of free love has become more popular among young people like you in recent years..."
Hearing this, Ernst couldn't help but interrupt: "Father, you are not secretly reading some romance novels, are you! I have never been an emotional person. For me, free love, from the day I became sensible, I never thought about it. My identity determines that everything is based on family interests."
This is true. As a man of two generations, Ernst can see that love is as unreliable as buying a lottery ticket. Spectrum, to put it bluntly, it was impulsive.
What happens next depends entirely on God's will. If two people can't get along, no matter how boring they were before marriage, they won't be happy after marriage. And some people may just want to make ends meet when they get married, but as a result, they gradually develop feelings and live together forever.
So Ernst did not take emotional matters very seriously, especially his achievements in this life, the development of East Africa, which was very satisfying.
Just like what my fishing friends said in my previous life, I fished every day and never got addicted. What's more, Ernst doesn't have an air force, so his investment in East Africa is all real and can be seen in return.
Although the returns are now very small and insignificant, they also bring Ernst a great sense of satisfaction.
Of course, Ernst does not mean that he is relatively cold in relationships. It is just that he is currently focusing on his career. He is only seventeen years old and is in his prime. It is better to be more self-disciplined.
"That's not what I'm talking about. What I mean is that you should spend more time with Karina. Poor child, encountering such a pair of irresponsible parents (Maximilian Noble I and his wife) must feel uncomfortable, and communicating in advance will help the marriage to be harmonious in the future," Constantine said.
Hearing this, Ernst thought for a moment. What Constantine said was very reasonable. Judging from the mental state of the Habsburg family, it was impossible to produce such figures as Maximilian I and Rudolf. The characters are indeed relatively rare, and they had mental problems in the previous generation.
Of course, Maximiliano I was in good spirits and had no problem with his IQ. He was just unlucky, spoiled and idealistic, and finally fell into the land of right and wrong in Mexico.
The reason why Crown Prince Rudolf died for love in his previous life. That was entirely due to family reasons. Princess Sissi herself was not suitable to be a queen, but she also greatly influenced Rudolf's character. In addition, Franz was a relatively pedantic and authoritarian person. Rudolf was rebellious and confused. He would choose to end his own life and lead to tragedy. Looking at Rudolf's suicide from his previous life, there was a trace of revenge on his parents.
Well now, when Ernst came to this time and space, the fate of Maximiliano I completely changed. Now he is still living carelessly in East Africa, just paying attention to some affairs in East Africa. Pointing his finger, he often sent telegrams to Ernst.
Ernst also understands why Maximiliano I chose to be the emperor of Mexico in the first place. This will be a proper political master in future generations!
I can do it if I want to, so Maximiliano I went to become emperor. Facts have proved that it may not be possible to become emperor.
However, Ernst humbly accepted some suggestions from Maximilian I, because Maximilian I could give Ernst a different perspective to observe the development of East Africa.
As for Crown Prince Rudolf, he is still a little kid. Ernst is looking for some opportunities to pull him out of the Austrian palace and reshape his values.
Rudolf's political views in his previous life were quite explosive. He did not want to be an emperor, but wanted to become the co-president of Austria and Hungary, and also wanted to win more benefits for Hungary.
This is a typical case of eating everything inside and out! However, this is indeed somewhat similar to Princess Sissi's thoughts, so Ernst thought that he could correct the child's thoughts for Franz.
Whether it works or not, can it be worse than Rudolf’s suicide in his previous life? Moreover, Ernst could drag Rudolf through some hard times under the guise of normal communication and learning. In Ernst's opinion, since the Austrian royal education would definitely fail, it would be better to arrange for Rudolf to learn and experience some different lives. .
After thinking so much, Ernst said to his father: "Father, don't worry, I will go to Austria more and walk around more."
Ernst decided to observe his fiancée's mental state and see if there was any There was no chance of causing trouble for that boy Rudolph.
