King's Landing in France

Chapter 232 It's the Fiancée's Round
After An Ning returned to the Palace of Versailles from the Jacobin Monastery reeking of alcohol, Fanny told him in a low voice, "Miss Christina is waiting for you on the terrace."

An Ning: "Which terrace?"

There are a lot of terraces at the Palace of Versailles.

Fanny: "Come with me."

So An Ning took off her coat and handed it to the attendants beside her, and then followed An Ning's pace.

The reason why I wear a coat is that although it is already spring, France is still very cold at this time-in fact, in this era, France does not have a few days of heat every year.

Because of this, in the 21st century, only a small number of people in France have air conditioners in their homes. After all, summer is only a few weeks for them, and it will pass.

Unexpectedly, the Little Ice Age passed directly and entered a warm era. As a result, Europe began to heat up and kill people on a large scale.

But this is not something An Ning has to worry about at this time.

An Ning followed Fanny to the terrace and saw Christina wearing a very gorgeous evening dress.

An Ning couldn't help asking, "Aren't you cold because you wear so little?"

Christina: "It's cold, but I think I'm going out tomorrow, and I want you to see me at my most beautiful..."

An Ning took a step forward and put her arms around Christina's waist: "I accept your wish."

Fanny retreated into the shadows like a ninja and disappeared.

Christina said softly: "I'm starting to miss the days when I was in the army. At that time, I could go out with you. Can't I not abide by this rule?"

Women who want to get married must first retire from the army. This is a long-standing rule in this time and space.

Christina had to comply too.

An Ning originally didn't want to get engaged so soon, for fear of affecting the situation in France, but in the end, she just sent Christina home and the situation changed suddenly. The brother-in-law directly changed from execution to exile.

So anyway, it was affected, and An Ning stopped hiding, and went directly to Mr. Equality to propose marriage.

Now Christina is An Ning's fiancée, so she retired from the army according to the rules and became the hostess with peace of mind.

By the way, because of Louis XVII, Mr. Equality was a bit of an untouchable in Paris, and everyone cut up one after another, fearing that he would be implicated when the king was beheaded.

As a result, overnight, Mr. Equality became "the most revolutionary and progressive good man" in Paris again, and everyone came forward one after another to make connections.

Mr. Equality was also in a very good mood. As soon as he got engaged, he dragged An Ning to his own study in the Royal Palace, took out a large ledger, pointed at it and said, "Choose what you want, my dear son-in-law!"

So An Ning happily asked for the coal mine.

Mr. Equality was still very puzzled: "Coal mine? Apart from keeping warm in winter, that stuff can only be used to burn steam engines."

Although more than ten years have passed since Watt improved the steam engine, most people are still unaware of the important role of coal.

An Ning was also willing to play the role of a prophet at this time, so he said to Mr. Equality: "My dear father-in-law, haven't you read the report? The steam engine improved by the British Watt has great potential. I have ordered my craftsmen to go all out. Make a steam engine and use it to drive a spinning machine. Coal is the blood of the economy of the future!"

Although An Ning spoke very excitedly, Mr. Equality was not infected. He shrugged: "Really, okay."

It can only be said that things like foresight are a rare quality, and people with this quality are very rare.

An Ning briefly recalled Mr. Equality on the day of the marriage proposal, and immediately turned her attention to Christina.

With her arms around Christina's waist, An Ning realized that her fiancée was still very strong—I mean, she had big muscles.

After all, I have been in the army for so many years, and it is normal to have muscles.

Christina: "I always thought that it would be a trivial matter not to be able to fight on the battlefield with you in the future. I thought that the future would not be any different from the past. But I was wrong. It turns out that sending you to the battlefield is such a trivial matter. difficult things.

"I've been having nightmares since yesterday, dreaming of you..."

An Ning: "Don't worry, I have a very hard head. I have charged so many times before, and I didn't get hurt at all."

Christina: "Because you didn't have any injuries before, it's possible to exhaust your good luck, isn't it?"

After a brief pause, she said in a soft, pleading voice: "Can you promise me not to charge in person?"

An Ning: "You know it's impossible for me to agree. A person's past experience will become the criterion for his behavior in the future. The previous few times I charged in person, all had very good results...especially when I was with Lafayette In the battle, my personal charge is almost the decisive hand of the battle!"

Christina: "Then let me put it another way. Can you promise me that every time you charge in the future, you will be the winner of the battle? What I mean is, don't charge until this time!"

An Ning recalled the feeling when he charged.

In fact, it is very enjoyable to fight in person. When An Ning played Mount and Blade 2 before, he liked the fact that the damage of the troops was simulated, and then the player turned on the damage reduction, and then rushed into the battle with various bodies, and experienced the thrill of using one as a hundred. ——Then he was sent away by the pirate's javelin.

But that's a joy too, isn't it?

An Ning put her arms around the beauty for a self-examination, and suddenly found that she actually liked this feeling of rushing into battle.

Probably those fierce generals who used to fight alone in ancient times also fell in love with this feeling.

So An Ning said truthfully: "Actually, I still like to go to the battle in person. In this process, I can feel my life is burning."

Christina: "Don't you like the story of Horatius very much? Horatius didn't defend the bridge with three people for the pleasure of killing the enemy!"

An Ning sighed, then lightly pressed Christina's head on her chest, stroked her long hair, and said softly, "Okay, I promise you."

"I will let Fanny supervise you! Once you play around, she will report to me!"

An Ning smirked and said, "Then I'll leave Fanny to take care of you and take Julian as an orderly!"

Although it is a bit dangerous to take Julian as an orderly, it may repeat the mistakes of a certain "battlefield magician".

Christina was anxious directly: "You!"

An Ning pressed her head hard, not letting her distance herself from getting angry with him.

After confronting for a while, Christina gave up: "Forget it. I'll see which sister can charge with you, so I can feel more at ease."

An Ning: "The Sunset Knights will definitely charge with me. They all joined because of my personal bravery and feats. They will protect me."

Christina: "I don't know Sunshine Knight. Let's find a younger sister who I know and has superb martial arts skills as a bodyguard. You promise me, you must take her with you if you want to go to the battle!"

An Ning raised her eyebrows, thinking what kind of plot is this, marrying a wife and giving her a maid?

An Ning chose to follow her own heart: "Then I want a beautiful one."

Christina smiled: "Which one of my sisters is not beautiful? Even Ms. Oliver still has charm."

After all, it was once the Royal Guard of Honor of the King of France.

An Ning: "Well, if this can make you feel at ease. In fact, you don't need to be so worried at all. After all, it's just a defensive battle across the Marne River."

Christina was silent for a few seconds, and then gave a soft "hmm".

An Ning raised her head and found that the moonlight at this moment was very beautiful.
