King's Landing in France

Chapter 321 In the Men's Waiting Room

The wedding was held in Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris as An Ning expected.

The bishop who managed Notre Dame had previously been guillotined by the passionate citizens because he refused to swear to renounce the pope's leadership and allegiance to the National Assembly. The new bishop was a sworn priest who respected An Ning.

While Christina was preparing, An Ning was taken to the men's lounge next to her, where Napoleon, who was married today, was already there.

As soon as Napoleon saw An Ning, he immediately greeted him: "Andy, come!"

An Ning leaned over suspiciously: "What's wrong?"

"These children are holding flowers and helping the bride lift the skirt today. You choose first!"

An Ning: "A bouquet?"

"It's the flowers in the bride's arms."

"Is it the flower that will be thrown to the person watching the wedding at the end, and the flower that will be caught by the next person to get married?"

Napoleon looked at An Ning suspiciously: "What the hell, does this custom still exist in France?"

An Ning raised his eyebrows. He wasn't sure when the tradition of throwing flowers at Western-style weddings started. Maybe it's not popular now.

Seeing that An Ning didn't answer, Napoleon stopped asking and turned to the question just now: "Come on, you pick first. The boy holds the bouquet, and the little girl follows the bride to lift the end of the skirt."

An Ning glanced at the two little girls first: "Oh, I found a very good-looking little girl here, these two little girls will definitely be beauties in the future."

Napoleon frowned: "So you are interested in such a young child?"

"How is it possible, I'm not La Salle." An Ning replied, and slandered La Salle by the way.

Napoleon responded to this move, and the Corsican laughed loudly: "Hahaha, La Salle does have this possibility. That guy feels that not only the little girl, but even the sheep are fine."

An Ning: "Because he is a man who dares to fight demons."

In the West, the relationship between demons and sheep is very close. It is said that at first it was because gypsies trained goats to read and perform on the street, and then they were believed to be demons on sheep. Over time, sheep became harmonious in Western culture. The existence of the devil is closely related.

What An Ning is actually playing here is the meme of European culture.

Napoleon understood in seconds, and laughed wildly again.

When the two of them were joking like this, two pairs of four children looked at them eagerly, not knowing what they were laughing at.

Finally, An Ning noticed the eyes of the children, so she stopped teasing La Salle, and squatted down in front of the children: "Now is the era of freedom, the four of you can also choose who you want to be the best man and bridesmaid, you come first! "

An Ning pointed to the little girl in the pair on the left.

The girl replied immediately: "I know you are Frost! I want to lift the skirt of His Excellency General Frost."

An Ning corrected embarrassingly: "It's my wife's skirt, and I'm not Scottish, so I don't know how to wear skirts."

Napoleon said: "The tradition of our army is that senior officers who make mistakes have to wear women's clothing to work in the headquarters for a day. Andy, are you so sure that you won't have this day?"

An Ning: "I..."

"You can't make mistakes?"

An Ning held back for a few seconds, but in the end she still didn't say such headstrong words: "No, I also make mistakes, and after I make mistakes... yes, I will wear a maid outfit and work at the headquarters for a day, so that everyone can learn from it." As a warning."

Napoleon smiled and said, "It's a deal! But I still hope you don't make mistakes. If you make a mistake, you don't know how many more casualties our army will suffer for no reason."

An Ning: "Every one of our commanders is like this, so we must think twice before acting..."

Napoleon: "You're right, but you shouldn't speak Latin in front of the children. Look at the faces of these children."

An Ning's translation plug-in translates "Think Twice Before Acting" into Latin.

This golden finger is still as strong as ever - it should be said that it is too strong.

An Ning touched the head of one of the little boys, and then asked: "This lady has chosen to carry my wife's skirt, and now I need a man to hold the bouquet."

Immediately the two little boys raised their hands and shouted, "Me!"

An Ning: "It seems that both of them have the same idea. In free France, debates are needed to decide who can get the reward in the end!"

Napoleon: "Come on, how old are they, let them debate... They might not even have basic logic."

An Ning happened to be answering, and one of the children said: "Your Excellency, shouldn't it be a duel between the two of us, and the winning side will get this honor?"

An Ning looked up and down at the boy who said this, and muttered the word that just came out of his mouth: "Honor? Although the pronunciation is not standard, this should be the pronunciation of Latin, right?"

The little boy nodded: "Yes, I have learned a little Latin."

"Then do you understand what I just said in Latin?"

The child shook his head: "I only know a little bit, which is not enough to understand the meaning of your words just now."

An Ning made a decision at this moment: "I want this for the little boy holding flowers. He's really good, smart, and understands Latin! By the way, whose family are you from? Do I know him?"

Napoleon quipped: "Perhaps he was also the son of a cobbler."

An Ning smiled and said, "That's a coincidence, I can share my leather-making experience with him, and check to see if my hands have become rusty."

Napoleon: "If you really want to show your leather-making skills, I will definitely see it. After all, I have seen your commanding skills, language-playing skills and music skills, but I have never seen your leather-making skills."

An Ning raised her eyebrows: "Then I will definitely show my hands when I get the chance."

An Ning inherited some skills from the original owner. For example, when he first crossed, he was able to play standard marching drums like a drummer who had been training for a long time.

Another example is the reloading of the flintlock. As a fan of the era of queuing and shooting before the time travel, An Ning has studied the reloading steps a little bit, but after all, he has not practiced it.

However, as soon as he traveled through, he could use the flintlock proficiently, reload it quickly and well, and had a sense of rhythm.

Therefore, An Ning should have the skills of tanning leather and repairing leather shoes.

As long as he is given tools, his body should move on its own, doing things that have long been formed into muscle memory.

However, at this time, except for Napoleon who really wanted to see how An Ning repaired shoes, no one else would have dared to think about it.

Just as An Ning was thinking about it, the door of the male guest waiting room opened, and Murat poked her head in and said, "It seems that the girls are almost ready, so let me take a look at the situation of the two of you."

An Ning: "Just say we can do it anytime."

Murat nodded and left.

Napoleon looked at the door closed by Murat and said, "I heard that this is the messenger who captured Josephine Beauharney?"

An Ning: "Yes, although he did not provide the information, he did contribute."

Napoleon was about to answer when Fanny opened the door and came in: "It's almost time, are the two grooms ready?"

An Ning took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "Get ready, let's go."
