I am Peter III, Emperor of the Hexagon of the Goose Kingdom

Chapter 86 Johanna Elizabeth Deputy General Secretary
Johanna also attached great importance to Bestutev, who paid great attention to King Frederick, but after a period of secret meetings with the Marquis of La Chettadier and the Baron Madefield, they observed that this Bestutev Alcoholism, gambling, and sometimes tyranny, although a little clever, but nothing to worry about, obviously an ordinary schemer.

Johanna couldn't help being overjoyed. The number of meetings between her and her two companions began to increase, and the number of secret letters sent from Moscow to Berlin also began to increase.

Every day, many confidential letters are sent out from the political center of Russia, St. Petersburg in the past, and Moscow now, and a few more letters are completely unnoticed.

However, the three of Johanna clearly underestimated the Deputy Minister of General Affairs.

When they started the secret meeting, Bestutev keenly guessed that the three might be dealing with him.

But he didn't say anything, just found a German translator in charge of foreign affairs, deciphered and intercepted Johanna's secret letter.

After each secret letter was opened, a copy was made, and Johanna's letter was sent to Berlin in its original form.

"Where's Peter?"

Elizabeth is sitting bored in her palace, and these days are her highlight moments.

All the fashions that Peter brought back were dedicated to her.

According to Elizabeth, this is Peter's filial piety.

Then she carefully put on one and walked in the palace every day.

The Duchess of Polia and a large number of maids followed behind, and countless green leaves set off her.

Wherever Elizabeth went, she immediately became the focus of the crowd.

"Oh my God, Her Majesty is simply a goddess!"

"The beauty of Her Majesty is so intoxicating!"

"Your Majesty, please stay a while, let me kiss the corner of your skirt!"

"The most beautiful thing in the world is Her Majesty the Queen!"

Countless compliments and surprises were not only expressed in words, but also expressed in their eyes. Elizabeth enjoyed this moment very much.

but……

Fashion is limited.

Even if she cherishes it very much and only wears one piece every day, after showing off all over the palace, she will wear it out at some point.

When the wave is over, I think of Peter.

The Duchess of Polia bowed and replied:

"Your Majesty, Your Highness doesn't come out of the palace very much these days. He called Countess Roman and his maid Voroncova to stay in the same room."

Elizabeth froze for a moment, and couldn't help asking:

"Countess Roman? Vivian?"

Polya should be immediately.

Elizabeth thought of this woman in her mind, and the scene that impressed her most was that Peter called Vivienne that day.

It is said that it is to see the goddaughter, but at the party, when the emotions are burning, who knows why?

Elizabeth asked:

"Polya, do you think Peter is interested in the countess?"

Polya coughed lightly and said:

"Perhaps so, Your Majesty."

Elizabeth said with some dissatisfaction:

"Peter still has the mind to meet the Countess privately? Doesn't he care that his aunt is running out of clothes?"

The Duchess of Polia also agreed, and then heard the queen say strangely:
"Does Sophia have any objections?"

Polya said:

"Princess Sophia is earnestly studying Russian every day while paying her respects to you."

Elizabeth nodded with satisfaction.

The crown prince seems quite sensible.

But she became dissatisfied with her nephew as soon as the comparison was made, and she said:

"Once Sophia is unhappy, Peter is immediately prohibited from contacting the countess."

As for Voronzova, Elisabeth did not mention it.

Before, she ordered Voronzova to verify her nephew's fertility, but later she saw her nephew and Karl romantically fill the house, and now that the crown prince has arrived, Voronzova is useless.

"Yes!"

The Duchess of Polia nodded and accepted the order.

Then Elizabeth looked at her fashion, and the palace was already covered.

But she has worn all these fashions.

Even if she likes it very much, she just wears it again in her palace.

Elizabeth would be ashamed if the same fashion appeared at the palace a second time.

She will feel that she has neither dignity nor money.

This will never be tolerated!

After flipping through the Decameron and some miscellaneous books, Elizabeth finally couldn't help it, and she said:

"Go get Peter."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Before Polya went out, she said:

"Your Majesty, please report to Beskovsky if you have something to do. I have been waiting for a long time. Did you see me?"

"not see!"

Elizabeth said without hesitation.

"Yes!"

Upon hearing the reply, Polia went out. It would be better for her to go in person to call His Highness over.

The crown prince is too ridiculous, and the maids are too young, what if they can't grasp it?
Seeing Polya come out, Bestutev, who was waiting outside, couldn't help being overjoyed. He stepped forward and said:

"Dear Duchess, Your Majesty is going to summon me?"

Duchess Polia shook her head and said:

"No, His Majesty refuses to see you."

Although expected, Bestutev was frustrated.

He stopped for a moment and couldn't help sighing.

Since the queen promoted him from minister in Hamburg to deputy minister of general affairs four years ago, he has been conscientious and dedicated to serving the queen.

But the longer he got to know the queen, the more he discovered that the queen had two sides.

One side is the queen, and this is the best time to deal with government affairs.

But one side is a woman.

Especially in the past few days, the queen wore new clothes and walked around the palace, but no one dared to report government affairs, for fear of disturbing the queen's interest.

Bestutev knew very well that at such times, the empress completely regarded herself as a beautiful woman.

In this radiant palace, once the empress enters this state, they, the ministers of state, will suffer.

If you want the Queen to listen to the report, you have to wait for a few weeks if you are less, or a few months if you are more.

"If the Queen can spend one ten-thousandth of Teresa's time on government affairs, I will be the happiest person in the world."

With a sigh, Bestutev turned away.

He didn't want to hurt the emperor's heart because of a momentary impulse.
