Chapter 116 The Source of Rudolph's Nightmare
"Ernst! How did you get so many carriages? Where are you going?" Constantine asked looking at the neatly arranged carriages in the yard.
"Father, it's not just after Christmas. I thought about visiting the children in school. They are all orphans and have no family, so I plan to visit them." Ernst replied.
"Well! Well done Ernst, I also want to see these poor children, wait a minute, we will go to school together as a father and son." Constantine said.
As nobles, generally speaking, smart nobles want to cultivate their reputation, such as helping some disaster victims and vulnerable groups.
Of course, there are also some penny-pinching iron roosters, eager to take the last bit of savings from the pockets of their leaders and tarnish the reputation of the aristocratic group.
However, most of the nobles have online IQ, even if they don't have love, they will still put on a show.
The royal family of Hechingen has always had a good reputation in Hechingen, and Constantine will also support some residents of Hechingen who are living in difficulties during festivals.
…
The carriage drove slowly, and Ernst and Constantine sat in the frame.
"Ernst, I know you are busy, but you can't always be busy with work in life, and sometimes you should care about other things." Constantine came up and talked to Ernst.
"Uh...Father, can you just say it directly?" Ernst asked.
"Stupid, it's your marriage. How long has it been since you visited your fiancée?" Constantine said bitterly.
Ernst was stunned for a moment, and thought about it carefully. The last time he saw that little girl was when he stopped by Schönbrunn Palace a few months ago.
"Father, Karina is still young, so don't be in a hurry. Although I know you are in a hurry to have a grandson, anyway, your daughter-in-law can't run away. Let's wait a few years." Ernst responded.
Karina is only eleven years old this year, and after the new year, she is only 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.
"Smelly boy! Am I an impatient person in your heart? Although Dad and I are older, I have never panicked in this life. If you are not my son, I would not be bothered Take care of your business!" Constantine said.
"As a person who has been here, I am sharing my life experience with you. At the beginning, your mother and I were also in a political marriage. Before we got married, I didn't have any feelings for each other. But when I got along with your mother, I was attracted by each other and slowly discovered each other. Even if Jenny passed away, I didn't marry again, and I brought you up by myself.
So people's feelings come slowly, even a stone can warm you in your arms, not to mention people's hearts!
Of course, I know that the slogan of free love has become more popular among you young people these years..."
Hearing this, Ernst couldn't help but interrupted: "Father, you are not peeking at some romance novel! 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 in the interests of the family."
What happens to the follow-up results depends entirely on God's will. If two people don't get along, no matter how boring they are before marriage, they will not be happy after marriage.
And some people may just want to live together when they get married, but they gradually develop feelings, and they can grow old together.
So Ernst doesn't pay much attention to emotional matters, especially his achievements in this life, and the development of East Africa is very enjoyable.
As my previous fishing friends said, I fly every day, and I haven’t seen an addiction. What's more, Ernst doesn't have an air force, and his investment in East Africa is real, and he can see the return.
Although the return is very small and insignificant now, it also brings great satisfaction to Ernst.
Of course, Ernst does not mean that he is indifferent in terms of relationships, but he is currently focusing on his career. He is only seventeen years old, and he is in his prime, so he should be more self-disciplined.
"I'm not talking about this, what I mean is to let you spend more time with Karina, poor child, when you meet such a pair of irresponsible parents (Maximiliano I and his wife), I feel sad It must be uncomfortable, besides exchanging feelings in advance, it will help the marriage harmony in the future." Constantine said.
Hearing this, Ernst thought for a while. What Constantine said was very reasonable. Judging from the mental state of the Habsburg family, it is indeed relatively rare to have such characters as Maximilian I and Rudolph. And the previous generation had mental problems.
Of course, Maximilian I was in a good state of mind and had no problem with his IQ, but he was just unlucky, spoiled and idealistic, and finally fell into the place of right and wrong in Mexico.
The reason why Crown Prince Rudolph died in love in his previous life. It was entirely due to family reasons. Princess Sissi herself was not suitable to be a queen, but she greatly affected Rudolph's character. In addition, Franz was relatively pedantic and authoritarian, and Rudolph, who was rebellious and confused, was Willing to choose to end his own life has led to tragedy. Looking at Rudolph's suicide from his previous life, he has a mentality of revenge for his parents.
Well now, when Ernst came to this time and space, the fate of Maximilian I was completely changed, and he is still living heartlessly in East Africa, just pointing out some affairs in East Africa, and often giving Ernst telegraphed.
Ernst also understands why Maximilian I chose to be the emperor of Mexico in the first place. This will be a proper key administrator in future generations!
I can do it myself, so Maximilian I went to be emperor. Facts have proved that it may not be possible to do it.
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 kid, and Ernst is thinking about finding some opportunities to pull him out of the Austrian imperial palace and reshape his values.
In his previous life, Rudolph’s political concepts were quite explosive. Although it was wrong to be the emperor, he wanted to become the common president of Austria and Hungary, and he wanted to win more benefits for Hungary.
This is typical eating inside and outside! But this is indeed somewhat similar to Princess Sissi's thinking, so Ernst thought that Franz could correct the child's thinking.
Whether it is successful or not, can it be worse than the result of Rudolph's suicide in the previous life! Moreover, Ernst can use the banner of normal exchange and learning to drag Rudolph to live a hard life. In Ernst's view, since the Austrian royal education will definitely fail, it is better to arrange for Rudolph to learn and experience some different life. .
After thinking so much, Ernst said to his father: "Father, don't worry, I will go to Austria more often."
Ernst decided to observe the psychological state of his fiancée, and at the same time see if there was a chance to find trouble with that kid Rudolph.
