King's Landing in France

A five or six-year-old child was playing next to the carriage. When Robespierre got off the car and entered the National Assembly, the child quickly ran to a gentleman across the street.

"Sir, I heard it. There was a heated argument inside, and the carriage shook." The child said.

The gentleman took out a few copper coins and stuffed them into the child's hand, but he didn't let go immediately, but asked, "Did you hear what they were arguing about?"

"No. They were talking too fast for me to hear," answered the child.

Although French is a very accurate language, it is really hard to hear when you speak it too fast.

The gentleman let go, and the kid who took the coin ran away happily.Copper plates are different from the banknotes printed by the National Assembly. Copper plates are hard currency wherever they are, and can be exchanged for all the good things a child wants.

Then the gentleman quietly left the National Assembly, turned into the adjoining street, and entered the Paris branch of Tellson's Bank.

This is a bank that has operations in the UK and France, and often handles some cross-border remittance business.

Of course, under the current situation, Tellson Bank is not only a bank, but also undertakes the task of collecting intelligence on Paris.

Yes, there were no spies in this day and age, the word wasn't even born.But the gathering of intelligence still has to be done.

In this day and age, such things are generally done by merchants, sailors, postmen, and bank clerks on the run.

The gentleman asked for a page of letter paper at the counter of the bank, quickly wrote down the words "Frost and Robespierre may have a rift", and handed it to the old butler guarding the counter.

The butler nodded, without saying anything, took out the envelope, put the letter in, and sealed it with a drop of wax.

"The letter will take the next post to Calais."

"No mail, send someone to deliver it," whispered the gentleman. "It's very important. London needs to know about it."

The butler nodded: "Understood, someone will go to Calais to send the letter across the strait."

The gentleman nodded, then turned up his collar and left the empty branch office.

Anning stayed in Paris for a few more days, waiting for Marat's funeral.

In the past few days, the front line reported that everything was normal. Apart from some routine transfers, Lasalle did not find any signs of the enemy changing the current strategic focus.

In other words, the enemy's main energy was still besieging the two fortresses of Sedan and Verdun.

So An Ning lived in peace at the headquarters of the Palace of Versailles, waiting for the day of the funeral.

Yet he was like a magnet, drawing people from all walks of life to visit Versailles.Christina also suddenly became a favorite in the social scene in Paris, receiving invitations to various tea parties and salons all day long.

Seeing those invitations, An Ning couldn't help complaining: "It seems that not many people died in Paris, and the upper class still enjoy singing and dancing."

Christina immediately responded: "It's different. In the past, these dances and salons were held by the wives and daughters of nobles and big businessmen, but now they are held by the wives and daughters of the representatives of the National Assembly, various commissioners, and officials of the Paris Commune." manage."

Yes, there was also a Paris Commune during the French Revolution, which was actually the Paris City Hall, which was renamed after the revolution.

The famous Paris Commune in later generations is actually the 2.0 version of the Paris Commune.

An Ning frowned: "That's it."

Christina: "What, are you unhappy?"

"No, I'm just sighing." An Ning changed the subject, "So is there any news worth noting about these tea parties, dance parties and salons?"

Christina: "They were rumoring that you and Robespierre had a disagreement, so many people came to me to find out the truth. But I fought back and told them that you and Maximilian are close friends."

An Ning nodded: "Yes, we are close friends. We share common ideals. Although Maximilian is a bit extreme now, he is still the noble and incorruptible person before."

Robespierre, the incorruptible who remained noble until the end.

Although he went to extremes, it was more like he got into a dead end under heavy mental pressure. Until the end, what he thought of was still the revolution and the republic.

There is even a point of view that regards Robespierre's death as the end of the Great Revolution, and what remains after Robespierre's death is the fruits of various careerists, which can no longer be called the "Great Revolution".

It was precisely because An Ning understood these things that he never hated Robespierre.

Christina put her arms around An Ning's shoulders and whispered in his ear: "In this case, you need to take more definite actions to show that you are on Robespierre's side."

An Ning: "Is this a suggestion from a good wife?"

"What is a good wife?"

"It's an oriental term that describes a capable hostess. Well, I will pay attention to it. For Mara's funeral, I will call the Sunset Knights to serve as guards."

The Sunset Knight has been regarded as Frost's personal guard because of his unique gray uniform.

An Ning paused: "By the way, let Ludwig play a farewell song."

Christina: "He is in the music room on the second floor. He seems to be composing music. No one dares to disturb him. You should go and tell him in person."

Anning nodded.

Christina took the initiative to leave his body, as if saying "go" to An Ning with actions.

So An Ning decisively bid farewell to his fiancée and went straight to the music room on the second floor.

As soon as he opened the door of the music room, he heard Beethoven playing the piano.

This is a new song.

Of course, An Ning is not a music expert. He had only heard the popular pieces composed by Beethoven in Time and Space, such as "Symphony No. [-] in E-flat Major "Hero"" or "Moonlight Sonata".

So in theory, it is impossible for An Ning to believe that it is a piece that Beethoven did not write in history as soon as he heard the piece.

However, An Ning is now extremely sure that this is a piece that Beethoven never wrote in history.

Because he is too familiar with the tune that Beethoven plays now.

It is impossible for every World of Tanks player to be unfamiliar with this song. This is a re-arranged version of the famous Soviet military song "Prairie, Grassland". It is one of the most recognizable BGMs in the game!

Is there something wrong with a German composer drawing from the Slavic music card pool?

Beethoven didn't wear a hearing aid, but his expression looked as if he could hear the music he played!
Rather, Le Sheng has already sketched out the appearance of the piece in his mind, and he can test the whole picture of the piece with only his imagination!

An Ning quietly waited for Beethoven to finish playing before applauding.

Beethoven actually heard the applause, he turned his head abruptly, stood up immediately when he saw An Ning, then picked up the hearing aid that was placed beside him, and stuffed it into his ear.

An Ning: "Beautiful song!"

"This piece depicts the scene of La Salle's cavalry sweeping the river bank." Beethoven explained enthusiastically, "I used a lot of unconventional techniques and did not follow common sense, but I think this is the only way to express what I saw. scene."

An Ning nodded, admiringly, Le Sheng is amazing, can completely escape the restrictions of the era and style, and draw cards across the ages!
An Ning also praised several words.

Beethoven unceremoniously accepted all of An Ning's praises.

Then he asked suspiciously, "You came to see me for something special, right?"

An Ning: "Yes. Ludwig, now the whole of Paris knows that you are my queen musician. I hope you represent me and compose a piece of music for the funeral of my friend Jean Paul Marat .

"And I want you to play it yourself, that's important."

Yes, it can be announced to all Paris that Frost and Robespierre have no differences.

Beethoven immediately became serious: "I understand. How many days?"

"It's been a few days. So you don't have to write a complicated sonata. Just write a solo. Well, I think the solo of the flute is good. I like the sound of the flute."

The main reason is that after playing Xenoblade Chronicles 3, An Ning felt that to bid farewell to the deceased, he had to play the flute or the erhu suona.

Beethoven nodded confidently: "Flute, solo, farewell, I understand, leave it to me."
