Chapter 563 The Children Have Grow Up

Whether in the Danish Navy or in the Mediterranean Fleet, Georgi never forgot that he was Greek.

Greece is in unprecedented danger. Once it loses the protection of the Russian Empire, Bulgaria can tear Greece apart.

The Greeks certainly remember George I.

The Bulgarians have also not forgotten the humiliation they suffered during the Balkan Wars.

As the deputy commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, Georgi did not live in the Sultan's palace arranged for him by Venizelos, but lived on the battleship "Russia".

The visiting fleet led by Georgy consisted of a total of six warships, including the battleship "Russia", the two armored cruisers "Volga" and "Yenisei", the light cruisers "Lion" and "Beagle", and the supply ship "Gvas".

Kvass is a Russian fermented beverage that is similar in color to beer and is made from ingredients such as dark bread or breadcrumbs, water, sugar, yeast and lactic acid bacteria.

Kvass is not only a thirst-quenching drink, but also often appears in dishes as a condiment. It is a traditional food that Russians love very much.

Due to the border patrol conflict that occurred some time ago, Venizelos attached great importance to the security of the visiting fleet, and martial law was imposed inside and outside the naval port after nightfall.

Georgy had just fallen asleep when he was awakened by Paul Magkiv, the captain of the "Russia".

"Wake up, something's wrong, we have to leave."

Maggift was fully armed, with a gun and a sword.

"What happened?"

Georgi hurried out.

At the dock, the excited Greek officers were confronting the sailors of the Mediterranean Fleet. The gangway of the "Russia" had been retracted, but the cable had not been untied. Without the help of the tugboat, the "Russia" could not move at all.

"We want to see Prince Georgy. We are unarmed. Please believe that we have no hostile intent."

The Greek officer in charge communicated with the officers on duty of the Mediterranean Fleet in fluent Russian.

"There is no prince here, only General Georgy of the Russian Empire."

The officer on duty displayed Russian arrogance to the fullest.

"Do you know what we are going to do? We are going to invite Prince Georgy to Athens to be the king—"

The Greek officers couldn't wait, as this was a great achievement.

The officer on duty was stunned. Are all your coups so casual?
It's just so casual.

The country has an area of ​​more than 300 square kilometers and a population of million. It is only slightly larger than St. Petersburg, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it can be conquered by a single order.

It is no exaggeration to say that even without the support of the Greek military, the fleet led by Georgi alone could drive Constantine out of power.

George did not learn of the coup in the Kingdom of Greece until the next day.

Venizelos did not harm Constantine and sent Constantine and his family to Crete, which was also a revisit to his old place for Constantine.

Before Berlin had time to express its position, Britain, France and Russia immediately recognized the legitimacy of Georgy's accession to the throne.

Georgy's wife was Princess Marie Bonaparte of France.

London was also deeply concerned about the Kingdom of Greece's invitation to German instructors.

George didn't care about Germany's reaction. Boris met Ferdinand's eldest daughter, Princess Elizabeth, at the 300th anniversary celebration of the Romanov family. According to Alexander's report, Boris and Elizabeth were together every day these days.

"Liz is a good person, sensible, well-educated and will be a good wife for Bob."

Anne was very pleased with Elizabeth.

George was at a loss. He was only 17-18 years old. Was he going to get engaged?
"Why not? Bob is the king now. Getting engaged as soon as possible would be a good thing for Bob. Victor wouldn't object, would he?"

Anne was unsure of Ferdinand's opinion, Victor being Ferdinand's middle name.

"Are they related by blood?"

What George was most worried about was that Boris and Elizabeth would give birth to a bunch of idiots.

But it's not certain. Although there is a high probability that a low-ability child will be born in a marriage between close relatives, there is also a certain chance that a genius will be born. "Yes!"

Anne gave George a big eye roll.

If you count carefully, European royal families are actually all relatives, as long as they are not direct descendants.

From George's side, Boris should be considered Elizabeth's cousin.

From Anne's perspective, Boris is Elizabeth's cousin.

Since Elizabeth did not carry the hemophilia gene, George did not have to worry about Boris and Elizabeth's children suffering from hemophilia.

No hemophilia.

One Alexei is enough to make all Russian grand dukes alert.

Before George had time to investigate Elizabeth, Ferdinand came with his wife, Crown Princess Mary.

"George, George, your son has kidnapped my daughter, what do you say we should do?"

Ferdinand was arrogant and Mary was extremely embarrassed.

"Alex, I just got a new batch of sunscreen. You're going to like it."

Anne showed extraordinary enthusiasm. Mary's full name was Mary Alexandra Victoria, and Alex was Alexandra's nickname.

"Great, that's exactly what I needed!"

Mary could hardly wait to follow Anne away.

George invited Ferdinand to the study.

Alexandra (George's eldest daughter) tiptoed past the stairs. George snorted coldly, and Alexandra was struck by lightning, as if she was cast under a spell. She kept tiptoeing, with her feet one in front and the other behind, motionless.

George had a headache. Who did this girl belong to?

"Alex, nice to see you, what are you doing?"

Ferdinand was extremely passionate about Alexandra.

"Um, Sasha said there was an unusually large horse at the estate, so I was just about to go take a look."

Alexandra was well-behaved. When she answered, she did not forget to kneel down and salute Ferdinand while pinching the corner of her skirt.

"Go, go, have fun--"

Ferdinand smiled like a weird uncle.

George was instantly alert.

Sure enough, after sitting down in the study, Ferdinand began to sell George that his eldest son, Carol Karaiman, was already 18 years old and had graduated from St. Petersburg University with excellent academic performance. If nothing unexpected happened, Carol would be the king of Romania in the future.

"Congratulations, it sounds like you have a worthy successor."

George smiled softly.

"This kid is good in every way, except that he's almost 20 years old and still doesn't have a crush on anyone."

Ferdinand seemed fearless.

George glared at Ferdinand without saying a word.

"Either marry Alex to Kaka, or use four all-heavy artillery battleships as a betrothal gift. It's up to you!"

Ferdinand's true intentions were revealed.

"Ah--"

George sneered. It’s not even dark yet, and he’s already dreaming!
