The Holy Right of a Comic

Roy ordered the princess while sipping the vodka in the glass. Not long after the two had dinner, the izakaya became lively again. Although the workers did not dare to make a loud noise because of the two of them, they were still whispering .

Roy's ears are very sensitive. Listening to the words of these workers, he is probably the same as people in the 21st century, talking about gossip among colleagues in the factory, and complaining about his boss, but there are many complaints in these complaints. The great anger was like a bucket of firecrackers, which was almost ignited by a flame.

Taking Anastasia to have the simplest dinner in her life so far, Roy bid farewell to her in front of the royal carriage at the entrance of the restaurant. Yi also couldn't bear it and said: "...Go back to bed early today, Anna! I promised you that I will go with you tomorrow to visit the soldiers who came down from the front line, and I will never break my promise."

After receiving Roy's guarantee, Her Royal Highness put away the pitiful expression on her face. She looked around secretly, and after seeing that no one noticed, Her Royal Highness gently lifted the curtain One corner, revealing her small cherry lips and tall Joan nose, tiptoe to kiss Roy's cheek, but she is really not tall and Roy is not short, so in the end she can only kiss At Roy's chin.

After finishing all this, she jumped back like a frightened squirrel, escaped into the carriage, raised the corner of the curtain and waved to Roy: "...then see you tomorrow, Godfather!"

"See you tomorrow, Anna! Have a sweet dream."

Roy said politely, watching the carriage go away, while Her Royal Highness 5.0 who was sitting in the carriage looked back at Roy's place from the window of the car.

Roy knew that if he wanted to keep the Royal Highness, Anastasia would never refuse, and would even live with him without hesitation, and even dedicate everything to him, but Roy thought it was so beautiful The pearl should be carefully cared for, and it should be connected in series at the best time to form the last one in the necklace of Tsarist Russia.

Roy could easily step onto the beds of other princesses or even empresses, but he was unwilling to just swallow the most beautiful pearl of the Romanov dynasty.

The best things are always saved for last.

It snowed in St. Petersburg in winter, and Roy stepped on the snow and walked to Peter and Paul Church. When he returned to the church, he ushered in an uninvited guest.

The visitor was Roy's friend, Tsar Nicholas II of the Romanov dynasty.

Roy didn't know why the tsar suddenly came to the church to look for him so late. Could it be that he finally found something?

With doubts, he received His Majesty the Tsar. .

Chapter 91 My Daughter...

A low-key carriage stopped in front of the Peter and Paul Cathedral, and Nicholas II came here in a hurry. The tsar should have visited in secret. Except for a few personal guards, he did not bring any entourage.

Introduced by Roy, the two came to Roy's office in the innermost part of the church. Roy lit the candle in the room, and the flickering light reflected on the face of the nearly fifty-year-old tsar. It made his expression look cloudy and uncertain, looking very gloomy.

"Your Majesty visited the church late at night, what's the matter?"

Roy walked to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of vodka and two wine glasses from it, poured some wine, and put the glasses on the coffee table beside Nicholas II.

The Tsar didn't hesitate much, he picked up the wine glass and drank the strong wine inside, without even a superfluous look on his face, it seems that Her Royal Highness has inherited his father's good drinking capacity.

After drinking a glass of vodka, feeling the burning heat and slight smoke in his stomach, Nicholas II's tense face eased a little, and he said to Roy with a long sigh of relief: "...every time at the crown In front of you, I can soothe my emotions and no longer feel any fear, no wonder my 28-year-old wife and children always like to invite you to the Summer Palace."

‘There may be other reasons why they invited me to the Summer Palace. '

Roy slandered in his heart, but he still smiled and said: "...as the monarch of this huge empire, what do you have to be afraid of?"

Nicholas II smiled wryly and said: "...Your Majesty, there is no need to pretend that you don't know, you have become the Supreme Bishop of the Holy Church, and you must have heard about the current situation. The situation is not very good.”

"...while the soldiers are fighting bloody battles on the front lines, those damn moths are messing with me in the rear!"

Nicholas II clenched his fists, and his eyes were bloodshot, which showed that His Majesty the Emperor had been sleeping poorly recently.

Judging from the words of the tsar, there are front-line soldiers fighting, but there are people in the country who are holding back. No matter how you look at it, the tsar represents justice, but Roy, who is very clear about historical development, knows that those so-called "holding him back" in the country 'The people are actually war-weary people and those capitalists who are full of complaints. It can be said that the current tsar has stood on the opposite side of the people.

Of course, Roy understands the current situation in Tsarist Russia very well. It is indescribably rotten. This Nicholas II is a mediocre monarch. He believed in the "divine right of kings" and took it for granted that he became a tsar. He didn't need to be responsible to anyone except God. Therefore, he had already broken away from the connection with the working people and walked into the abyss step by step.

When this tsar came to power, the whole of tsarist Russia was on the verge of destruction, but he didn't have any intention of striving for strength. Instead, he hoped to use war and suppression to maintain his rule. Unfortunately, the wars of tsarist Russia in the past 20 years have not been victorious. , The Russo-Japanese War suffered a disastrous defeat, and now the entire Tsarist Russia is also retreating steadily in the First World War, completely exposing the problems and weakness of the entire country.

Although Tsarist Russia has a large army, it is almost paperless. The level of technological weapons development is not enough. The domestic economy is on the verge of collapse. Low, the logistics supply can not keep up, the dilemma facing Tsarist Russia can be described as "embarrassed on all sides".

‘Although I was besieged on all sides back then, it was on purpose. '

The smile on Roy's face remained unchanged, but inside he was thinking about his own affairs.

Nicholas II didn't know what Roy was thinking, he was still talking about his thoughts and ideas, "...I am ready to make peace with Germany in private, hoping to bring back the front-line troops and first suppress the domestic Rebels, I crushed them 10 years ago, and I can do it this time."

Ten years ago, Nicholas II was forced to convene the State Duma in order to ease the conflict. He postponed the conflict by deceiving the people. However, the czar who was greedy for power soon revealed his true colors and would not The State Duma, which conformed to its own will, was dissolved and once again assumed power alone.

He successfully deceived him ten years ago, but now ten years later, it is estimated that it will be very difficult for him to deceive again. Although the tsar said it harshly, it can be seen from the slightly trembling corners of his mouth that he is already afraid up.

Today is different from the past, the tsar ten years ago still has many supporters, but now apart from the people and the bourgeoisie who have lost their interests are resisting him, even some enlightened factions of the feudal aristocracy are dissatisfied with him. The defeat, the logistics and supplies are difficult to keep up, and the huge imperial army has also complained. The mutiny of the army will be the last straw that overwhelms Nicholas II.

Even if Roy doesn't have any historical foresight, he can now assert through the information he has, that this huge feudal empire that has ruled Russia for hundreds of years is about to collapse.

Roy is not interested in helping the tsar to tide over the difficulties. This is the torrent of history and the general trend of human reason. Although Roy's strength can even fight against the wheel of fate rolling forward by himself, it will take a lot of money. There are too many things, and the czar is not qualified to let Roy do 167 to that point.

The room fell silent. Roy held the cross in his hand and chanted the prayers of the "Bible". The holy and kind breath gradually calmed down the tense mind and trembling body of the Tsar. Nicholas II sat on the chair Leaning forward, his hands intertwined back and forth, showing that his heart was absolutely not at peace. After being silent for a long time, the tsar finally said in a hoarse voice:

"...I want to tell the Lord that I lied, Your Majesty. In fact, I am very scared now, and I don't have the confidence to suppress those rebels again. As an emperor, I am afraid of death, but as a father, I I am not afraid of death, the only thing I am afraid of is my children."

"Your Majesty, I know that you hold the holiness bestowed by the Lord. I don't ask you to save me in the name of the Lord, but I have only one request, hope..."

Nicholas II stayed in the church for two hours, and then left in a hurry.

Roy stood at the window and watched the carriage sink into the darkness. He blew out the candles, and the church fell into peace. Only the Son on the cross watched all this silently.

...

On the second day, Her Majesty the Queen brought her four daughters to the private hospital of the Tsar's Villa to visit the wounded soldiers, and Roy also went there as an escort. .

Chapter 92: The Oldest Selfie and the Coming of February

In order to show his concern for the front line, Tsar Nicholas II used his private hospital to treat wounded soldiers who retreated from the front line. Most of them were officers and only a small number of ordinary soldiers.

Compared with the wailing of the frontline battlefield hospitals, this royal private hospital located in the safest place in Tsarist Russia seemed much more orderly. Wounded soldiers were lying on the beds, and doctors and nurses in white coats came and went.

As a member of the nurses, Queen Alexandra went into battle in person, bringing her eldest daughter and second daughter to work with the nurses. Although the three of them did not have any superb medical skills, they were absolutely professional in nursing.

The reporter followed the empress and the princess, taking pictures one by one with an old Kodak camera. The visit and care of the wounded soldiers on the front line by members of the royal family will be the headlines of today's Russian newspapers. Inspiring soldiers who are still fighting on the front lines.

As the Patriarch of the Eastern Orthodoxy, Roy was also one of the reporters chasing him. He walked among the patients and prayed for every soldier. More respect and piety.

Tsarist Russia is a big country that believes in Christianity. Almost everyone believes in religion, and war is the best missionary environment for faith. Almost every soldier on the front line will pray with Christianity before the battle. There are even frontline priests They pray.

In a sense, these wounded soldiers who returned to the country were blessed by the Lord. For these soldiers who did not know whether they would live to tomorrow, they were more willing to dedicate their faith, even if they knew it was useless. There must be a psychological effect.

Although the countries fighting on the front line almost believe in Christianity, only they know who God will favor in the war.

An officer closed his eyes, held Roy's hand devoutly and prayed, and there were even tears in the corners of his eyes. The photographer on the side hurriedly fiddled with the old camera to capture this scene. After many people, I finally had free time.

"Your Majesty, you have worked hard, go and rest first, Anna is over there, she is still capricious and throwing temper tantrums because she has no time to talk to you after coming here... I don't know when she will grow up."

While resting, the Queen in a white coat came to Roy and chatted with him about his daughter.

"She will grow up soon, and so will you, Your Majesty, don't be too tired." "

Roy comforted Alexandra softly.

"Hey, I hope that Anna can grow up quickly as you said... These soldiers are all fighting on the front line. As a queen, that's all I can do. To be honest, I really don't want a war to happen. Especially since both sides of the war are my motherland, which makes me in a dilemma."

Her Majesty the Queen shook her head and sighed. Seeing these many soldiers who came down from the front line who were seriously injured or even needed to be amputated, you can know the cruelty of the war ahead. The whole World War I was due to the upgrading of weapons, but the tactics did not keep up. With these advanced weapons, the entire war during World War I was completely a meat grinder, a victory achieved with human blood and flesh.

Before she had time to wipe off her sweat, Her Majesty the Queen got busy again after chatting with Roy. Her eldest daughter and second daughter smiled shyly at Roy, and followed their mother to take care of the wounded.

After there were no other people around, Roy found Anastasia in the hospital. Because Her Royal Highness could not be a nurse like her mother and sister, she was playing chess with some officers at this time, and used it as her own identity. Condolences to the Queen.

Her Royal Highness, who was playing chess with a certain officer, noticed Roy at the door of the ward, and her face suddenly became anxious. The officer was also very discerning, and he used the excuse that he was tired and wanted to rest, and ended the trip. For the chess game, Her Royal Highness saluted and apologized very solemnly, and trotted to Roy's side, with a smile on her always cold face.

The two of them didn't say much, they just walked in the corridor of the hospital, until they came to the garden outside, Anastasia was like a cheerful lark, chirping: "...Godfather, I thought Soldiers were rude, rude and brutal, but now I see I was wrong, many of them were very learned and behaved like gentlemen."

Roy just smiled and didn't make a sound when he heard the words. He would not tell Her Royal Highness that most of those who can come to the Tsar's private hospital for treatment are middle-level or low-level military officers. They have all received good education, and those big characters Unknown soldiers still have great differences, but these people do not represent all front-line soldiers.

Although these officers will also go to the battlefield, relatively speaking, the environment will be much safer, at least there is no need to charge forward, unless it is on the verge of extinction.

"Godfather, Godfather! Look, there's a camera!"

Anastasia's eyes suddenly lit up. She saw a camera placed in the garden, and someone beside it was adjusting it. It looked like that person should be a photographer from a newspaper.

Her Royal Highness immediately lifted her skirt and ran over, and began to talk to the photographer. The photographer stepped aside respectfully, and handed over the old-fashioned wooden Kodak camera to the princess to operate.

"Don't break it, Anna..."

Roy walked towards this side at a leisurely pace, reminding the lively princess.

"No, godfather! I often played with these in the summer palace, but I was very professional. Even if it really broke, I would compensate him!"

Her Royal Highness said indifferently, as the Grand Duchess of Tsarist Russia, she does have such willful power. The photographer would hand her the expensive camera of this era to play with, knowing that it doesn't matter if it is broken. Can't afford to lose a camera.

As Anastasia said, she handled the camera very professionally. After a while, she adjusted the camera and pointed the lens on the wooden box at Roy. Stand there!"

Roy stood still obediently upon hearing this, knowing that it was the little elf in front of him who wanted to take a picture of him.

"Godfather, move forward, move forward!"

Listening to Her Majesty's command, Roy moved forward according to her will, until she was too close to the camera, and Anastasia pressed a button on the camera, and she was a quick shot on the runway before, hugged his arm.

"Crack——"

A dazzling light flashed, leaving an old black and white photo in the Kodak camera.

Roy stood on the spot and smiled gently, his body tilted a little because His Royal Highness suddenly rushed over. Her right arm was tightly hugged by the girl, and the two of them were almost completely attached to each other without a single gap.

Her Royal Highness's hair was a little disheveled during her fast running, but on that charming and always cold face, there was a cheerful smile that bloomed like a rose, and her slender body was as delicate as a flower, ready to come out Youthful, lively and delightfully quirky.

Her behavior can be regarded as a selfie, maybe this photo can also be regarded as (Qian Lihao) "the oldest selfie" Jie.

In the church, Roy rubbed his hand over the black and white photo without a trace of color, and there was a lot of people outside.

He turned his head and looked out the window. People were excited, shouting slogans, and many people even held weapons in their hands. It turned out that it was already February of the new year...

In January 1917, the people of St. Petersburg took to the streets to commemorate the bloody suppression of ten years ago. Nicholas II was furious and ordered Khabarov to "put an end to the riots in Kyoto." The Tsarist Russian regime immediately fell into turmoil, and internal and external troubles intensified. Even the nobles of Tsarist Russia believed that Queen Alexandra was a spy of Germany and asked the Tsar to put her under house arrest.

Inside and outside the imperial court, there were many scandals. The external people and the petty bourgeoisie united together, and the internal nobles were also ready to move, demanding to depose Nicholas II and order the tsar.

In February, the Tsarist Russian army was called to change its banner and flag. Tsar Nicholas II completely lost the support of the military, nobles and capitalists, and was unable to support himself.

And an army poured into the Summer Palace mighty and mightily, imprisoning the Tsar's family. .

Chapter 93: The royal family under house arrest

In the summer palace, there was noise and chaos. Many court servants stole the gold, silver and jewels in the summer palace and fled in all directions. Only a few servants who were loyal to the tsar stayed and were willing to share with the tsar's family. Live and die.

The messy palace, the litter and jewels thrown all over the floor, the trampled lawns and flowers outside the palace, the servants running around like ants, the guards loyal to the tsar and the guards who betrayed the tsar are fighting each other in the courtyard The guns were fired, and the screams of the dead were heard from time to time. It was completely like a feudal court at the end of the dynasty.

No matter which feudal country you are in, when a dynasty is about to end, the luxury of the past will disappear, and the appearance of gunpowder is like mocking the decline of the dynasty for hundreds of years.

In the bedroom belonging to the Tsar, Nicholas II was sitting on the sofa. He was wearing a graceful military uniform, leaning forward, with his elbows resting on his knees, his eyes were bloodshot, and even his beard was dark. It looked a bit messy without trimming. He just stared at the door in front of him without saying a word.

There were bursts of whimpering in the room. The four princesses and a prince hugged each other and shivered. They were born in the royal family and were cultivated like flowers in a greenhouse. They had never seen such a hellish scene.

Queen Alexandra 597 is hugging her five children. There are tears in the corners of her eyes, but she tries hard not to let the tears flow, comforting the children with soft words, even if she doesn't know what the future holds, no Know what kind of despair their family will face.

Anastasia was wearing a plain long dress, and all the exquisite jewels on her body were taken off. There were no silk gloves, elegant waistcoats, and cloaks made of precious animal fur. The exquisite headdress was even more beautiful. I didn't dare to wear it on my body. At first glance, I thought it was a girl from an ordinary civilian family.

But her beautiful appearance and noble temperament are telling others that even without those precious jewels on the outside, she is still a noble and elegant princess, and that kind of born proud temperament is definitely not ordinary Families can nurture.

Anastasia was embraced by her mother. She closed her eyes and clasped the cross tightly with both hands. Her soft and white jade hands trembled slightly. Two pearly tears slid down her delicate face from the corners of her eyes, and fell on the luxurious cloth at her feet. on the carpet.

Her Royal Highness was very frightened, her trembling body and her brain that lost her thinking left her in a daze, but the cross held tightly between her hands and the photo in the pocket watch behind the cross seemed to give her infinite power, allowing her to be able to In this desperate scene, he was barely able to maintain his sanity at the end without breaking down and crying on the spot.

"Don't be afraid, Olga, Tatyana, Maria, Anna, and Alexei... Papa and Mama will protect you..."

Even though the fear already filled her chest, Queen Alexandra suppressed that fear with her strong maternal love, comforting her children softly.

"I... I'm not afraid, mother... the godfather will protect us, the Lord will protect us."

Anastasia said in a sobbing voice with chattering teeth.

Suddenly, there was another noise outside, followed by a series of gunshots and chaotic running sounds, as if many people suddenly came to this summer palace.

That was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Both the prince and the princess wept softly, filling this bedroom with an atmosphere of tension and despair.

A Tsarist army broke into the summer palace, and killed all the servants who were stealing and looting the jewels in the summer palace, and the guards who were making trouble. Then this army took over the summer palace, and gradually Let the noisy scene outside calm down.

Those loyal guards and servants who were loyal to the tsar surrendered without any resistance. This was the tsar's order. Nicholas II knew clearly that if he still resisted at this time, it would only bring more terrible consequences to his family, so He has ordered his servants and guards that if anyone from the military department breaks into the summer palace, they can surrender unconditionally.

A man in his fifties was wearing a military uniform, and a general with white gloves was protected by the personal guards and came to the mahogany gate. Following his gestures with his eyes, some soldiers forced the gate open.

The princes and princesses who were inside the door screamed, curled up into a ball, and watched the man enter in fear.

"Your Majesty, Vasily's rescue came too late, and I hope to make amends!"

The man in military uniform bowed gracefully. He raised his head and looked at Nicholas II, whose eyes were bloodshot and his lips were trembling. He sighed and said, "...you should already know the current situation. , the military department has all betrayed you, and under the general trend, even if I am still loyal to His Majesty, I still have to make a choice."

"...Your Majesty Roy informed me in advance that you and your family were in danger. I hurried and finally was one step ahead of the others. If those greedy nobles and furious people came here first Here, no one wants to see the consequences of that."

At this time, Anastasia, who was hiding in her mother's arms in fear, raised her head and said excitedly with tears in her eyes: "...Yes, the godfather asked you to come here?"

"Yes, Your Majesty! But now the will of the empire has collapsed, and even that majesty can't stop it. The only thing he can do is to inform me in advance, who is grateful to His Majesty, that I can guarantee your safety."

Vasily in military uniform bowed slightly. If it wasn't for the messy summer palace outside the door, he would have thought he was meeting the emperor.

Nicholas II pursed his lips, and he opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice that hadn't slept all night: "...Mr. Vasily, I am proud of your righteousness to come to rescue you at this time!"
