Chapter 49
Thinking of her three sisters, Anna rarely felt guilty. The three youthful beauties were placed under house arrest in disguise for nearly a year, but Anna rarely visited them during this period. Now, as princesses of the empire, it is time for them to fulfill their obligations.
Since ancient times, although there are fairy tales where beautiful princesses and handsome princes love each other for life, they are fairy tales after all. In reality, princesses often become victims of politics. Even if Anna holds power, she cannot give up the precious political resource of "princess": why not use her three sisters to exchange for three young talents who are loyal to the empire!
So, Anna, who has always advocated frugality, took out a lot of money to prepare a generous dowry for her two sisters, and the grand wedding was also being actively prepared...
On June 3, Russian Emperor Alexei announced a "marriage order": the eldest princess of the Empire, Olga Nikolaevna, married Viscount Tokarev, and the second princess of the Empire, Tatyana Nikolaevna, married Lieutenant Tukhachevsky. The news came out, which surprised European countries.
In this era when the monarchy was still prevalent, there was always an insurmountable gap between nobles and common people; even the nobles emphasized the equality of the family, that is, the titles, wealth and strength of the two sides could not be too different. For example, the crown prince of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Ferdinand, his wife, Princess Sophia, was born in a small local aristocratic family and had a humble status, so they were often ridiculed by the nobles of Vienna, such as "the crow turns into a phoenix" and "sexed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with her beauty" and so on.
At the same time, many young people sighed with regret: The two beautiful beauties were urnated by two unknown pigs!!!
Why??? According to tradition, the fate of the princess is marriage. Before the release of the "marriage order", many European royal families hinted at the idea of marriage to Russia, but they were all rejected one by one.
No matter how you look abroad, Anna doesn’t care. She just wants to convey a message to the Russians through this action: civilians can also make a name for themselves, as long as you are willing to work hard!
As Anna expected, the unknown Tokarev and Tukhachevsky suddenly became idols of young Russians. Whether it was a noble child, a rich "rich second generation", or countless ordinary young people, a beautiful picture appeared in front of them: Work hard, boy! There are two princesses waiting for you!
Let’s not talk about the third princess Maria Nikolayevna. Although the fourth princess Anna Stasia is only 13 years old, all the men who have seen her, including Grand Duke Mikhail, admit that the little princess Anna will definitely surpass several sisters when she grows up. Anna’s title of “the number one beauty in the royal family” has been circulating among the nobles without realizing it... Of course, Anna herself doesn’t know it.
.........
On June 20, a grand wedding that cost tens of millions of rubles was held in the Kremlin. The two princesses of the Russian Empire got married at the same time, attracting countless guests. In addition to their own people, ambassadors to Russia and their families from various countries also attended the ceremony.
The two new couples were definitely the focus of the audience. Princess Olga and Princess Tatyana were dressed incredibly beautifully, charmingly, and made many young people... Well... It was shameful to be hard! As for the two grooms, Tokarev and Tukhachevsky, they were surrounded by more people: Who doesn't want to have a condom relationship with the empire's son-in-law? Even if they are not handsome, many famous girls still chatter around them, trying their best to arouse the other party's interest, and then become the lovers of the son-in-law.
Tukhachevsky, who was a noble family, naturally resolved these social issues, but Tokarev said that he was under great pressure: his usual hobby was to tinker with machines in the factory workshop or draw sketches in the study. Suddenly, facing so many charming girls, he was under great pressure!!!
The only regret that Empress Dowager Alexandra Fedorovna was unable to attend her daughters' wedding due to long-term illness. For this reason, the German ambassador to Russia expressed regret and concern to Grand Duke Mikhail and several princesses. However, Anna patted her chest and promised that her mother was gradually recovering from health.
Speaking of Anna, I have to mention her outfit today. Out of tradition and this is an important occasion, Anna had to wear a long dress and was carefully dressed by a professional makeup artist: her not-so-long blonde hair naturally dissipated, her face was only light makeup, and her pure white lace princess dress. This simple thing shines under Anna's outstanding appearance.
The Beautiful Life System played a completely role in Anna's body transformation in this wedding. Both men and women, young and old are speculating and fantasizing: What will this little princess look like in 3 years, 5 years later?!
Over the past two years, Anna has learned various court etiquettes. When she walked through the crowd gracefully, people were amazed: Is this an angel who accidentally fell into the world? No!!! Only Abiya and Svetlana who followed Anna truly understood: this little princess is a demon! A demon wearing an angel's appearance!
......
After the cumbersome wedding ceremony, the banquet began. Here, the Austro-Hungarian Ambassador to Russia had a great conversation with the Serbian Ambassador to Russia, the German Ambassador to Russia and the British and French Ambassadors to Russia said that they were drinking with brothers, while the ambassadors of the Balkan countries surrounded the ambassadors of several major countries, looking happy.
Looking at the funny performances of these politicians, Anna just observed coldly. She understood that the ambassadors also understood that the war was not far away.
...........
Sophie looked at the alcoholic father in disgust and walked to the corner alone, eating the fruit salad he brought from the waiter.
As the youngest daughter of Grand Duke Franz Salvador, the ambassador of the Austro-Hungarian Empire to Russia, and also the most rebellious daughter, Sophie hates the dull life now and longs for freedom.
"Oh..." Sophie sighed softly. Out of curiosity, she followed her father to Russia. She had been experiencing the cold winter in Russia. Sophie missed her distant hometown even more. "I don't know when I will go back..." Sophie muttered to herself and quickly walked to a balcony: She couldn't stand the smell of alcohol anymore!
...........
"Hmm? Is there someone on the balcony?" When Sophie saw someone standing on the balcony, she was about to leave, but when she saw that it was a little girl, she felt that she had found a friend.
Sophie, who was familiar, secretly walked behind the girl and suddenly blinded the other person's eyes, "Guess, who am I???"
