Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

The Russian army entered Paris, but had to wait for the French to withdraw, including the main departments of the French government and Napoleon's royal family.

Of course, this does not include Queen Josephine who was in Malmaison, where Hortense took his children to accompany his mother.

The commander of the Russian army was her non-blood cousin, and he was always very reasonable. Although he fired artillery outside the city and showed off his strength, he gave the French plenty of time to withdraw when he was about to enter the city.

So she went to her mother first, but she also had to take care of Catherine.

"Catherine, I'm going to Malmaison, but I'm still a little worried about you."

"It's okay, Hortans. If this guy Solovyov dares to do anything, I will change him into women's clothes!"

"what?"

"When he was in the Guards, he always served as a model for my sister Elena's paintings. At that time, he looked like a girl and had braids."

"When he first came to Paris, he hadn't recognized his relatives yet. That's not the case anymore."

"That's because after my brother ascended the throne, everyone in the army has been wearing short hair. You should go to Malmaison soon and give my regards to your mother."

Although Catherine has such a temper, she is very kind to people.

If Solovyov saw her kissing and hugging Hortans like this, he would think that the two of them had recently gotten rid of their men and started a lesbian relationship.

Now, the French troops are also retreating one after another, and the only ones left are the Russian troops to enter the city.

As for the Prussians, since the armistice agreement was signed by the Russians, they were able to enter the city, but the French were somewhat dissatisfied.

There was still some sense of humor among these defeated Frenchmen. Before the Prussians advanced there, they actually nailed a wooden sign with wooden boards.

“Welcome to Paris, Swedes!”

This is much more elegant and easy-going than the sign we put up when dealing with the Italians.

In addition, Blücher was thicker-skinned than Meng Huo, so he didn't take it seriously at all.

Moreover, the soldiers of the Prussian army were too ignorant to read and write, even though King Prussia was promoting education and promoting literacy, and even setting up primary schools in rural areas.

Therefore, the effect of the French ridicule did not meet their expectations.

At the same time, Russian troops were also entering Paris.

Excluding the time when he sent the bride off, many years have passed since Solovyov left here as a military attaché at the Paris Embassy, ​​so now he can be considered to be revisiting the old place.

However, he was not in a hurry to go to the original location of the embassy or the apartment where he had lived, but rode straight to the Tuileries Palace.

Catherine probably hasn't left there yet, so he went there now to appease the little girl and personally lead the troops to escort her.

This can also ensure safety. After all, some royalist forces may cause trouble at this time.

But the Russian army arrived, quickly took control of the main streets, and taught those who wanted to make a big news a good lesson.

If any intervention violates the law or does not comply with the requirements of the Russian army, those who endanger public order will be severely punished.

The specific method is that Russian soldiers will use sticks and gun butts to make these people understand.

When the Russian army just entered Paris, a thief was hit by the butt of a gun by the Russian army, and his face was bruised and swollen. He knelt down and begged for mercy. This was a great deterrent.

The Russians are "barbaric" only at a certain level.

Meanwhile, Savary was still in the Tuileries Palace, preparing a carriage for Catherine to travel.

"Minister of Police, we meet again now."

"Count, you are here at this time to meet the Queen, right?"

"Yes, after all, we are servants from Her Majesty the Queen's family. Although we are relatives, the war still broke out in the end. We deeply regret this, but we still hope that there will be peace in the future."

"You can go now. We will also leave in two hours."

"When we leave Paris, we will still rely on you and Joseph to protect His Highness' safety."

Solovyov then entered the Tuileries Palace with only Nicholas and a few adjutants.

The last time he came here, he was here to see his bride off, and the furnishings in the palace obviously had not changed much.

Napoleon was not particular about this aspect, and even many of the current decorations were rebuilt when Solovyov's aunt was here.

"It looks good, but... it looks a bit old."

"Your Highness, the Winter Palace is only 60 years old. Petersburg is not like Paris, a city with a long history. It's normal for it to look a bit old. After all, the emperor didn't pay much attention to his life, even..."

This was not the first time that he had teased his uncle in such a sarcastic way.

"Even what?"

"When eating, there is no etiquette at all. I always eat voraciously, which is actually bad for my digestive organs."

"Boss, you eat very slowly."

"There's always some good in it, and it looks like we've arrived."

Solovyov was surprised to find that the priest who had accompanied Catherine to Paris was standing at the door of the palace.

"Your Highness, the Grand Duke, and Your Excellency, the Count. Her Highness, the Queen, is waiting for you, and there are still some guests who have not left."

At this time, the master and disciple changed their order.

This was no longer a military gathering, but a private one, so Nikolay walked in front, while Solovyov followed behind with a group of adjutants.

"elder sister!"

With Nicholas' height, he would stand out even among the grenadiers.

"Kolya, when I left Petersburg you were going to be taller than your sister, and now you are even taller than her. Sit down, and that gentleman."

When Solovyov heard Ekaterina say this, he knew that she would probably lose her temper again today.

As for the person sitting next to him, Solovyov was also a little surprised.

Well, when he came to Paris before, Paulina was here.

"Michelle, we didn't leave either."

Catherine left Paulina here so that they could set out together to the Loire River.

And Sylvia and the child she bore Solovyov.

"father!"

Solovyov hadn't seen these girls for a long time. Polina's children were also here.

"You have grown taller. Have you listened to your mother?" Solovyov squatted down on each side with two girls, and they came over to be close to him.

Compared to the black-hearted little Lisa at home, these girls are better.

And Sylvia is pregnant with a baby, probably conceived the last time he came to Paris.

This youngest one doesn’t look like the girl in the family.

"Gala, this is Daddy."

The younger daughter's name sounds simpler.

Sylvia would definitely name her children according to Italian custom, which made Solovyov's children particularly recognizable and they could tell who their mother was just by looking at their names.

The child was holding onto his mother's skirt at first, but soon let go and ran over.

"good boy"

Solovyov liked children, not only his own but other people's as well.

As for this kid Demid, he was looking at him meaningfully. He was still wearing the uniform of a French Guards officer.

Well, probably after talking to his new aunt, Catherine finally allowed him to join the army when Napoleon was not at home.

"You are now in Paris, sir. But things are probably not over yet."

"I thought so too. You look much stronger now, you clever boy. You don't look like a child anymore."

"But you were so busy reuniting with Aunt Sylvia that you seemed to have forgotten my mother."

This kid can even help his mother declare her sphere of influence!
"Ah, that's right. Pauletta, I was busy with the children, and of course the girl, too?"

"You are such a biased person, don't forget my Letizia!"

Ah, they, the Bonaparte family, always take the old lady's name and give it to the girls they give birth to.

The child was like a miniature version of Polina, and Solovyov held her little hand.

"Pauleta, you must have been so cute when you were a child, but you probably weren't so well-behaved. After all, you would rob bird nests!"

However, with these children acting as a buffer, Ekaterina's temper has obviously improved a lot.

Solovyov was very good at coaxing children, and soon he got these little girls to stand in a row obediently.

"Octavia, you have grown up now. You need to take good care of your sisters."

"Yes, Dad. Just."

Then the eldest daughter whispered something in Solovyov's ear.

Always like her mother, a little familiar.

He was just greeting his lieutenants and they seemed to be getting along very well, but Demid was a little jealous.

"That will have to wait. Dad will make the decision for you. Don't be in a hurry. When the time comes, we can sit down and discuss the important matters of life."

This girl has been with Demid since she was a child, and their relationship has progressed from childhood sweethearts to lovers, and they even want to get married, so it's not surprising.

Solovyov did not object. After all, they looked like step-siblings, but they had no blood relationship at all, so there was no problem.

"Dad is the best!" The eldest daughter also kissed Solovyov on the cheek.

Solovyov was not in a hurry, but he could not imagine which direction the future would develop.

As for Nicholas and Catherine, the two siblings haven't seen each other for a long time.

Compared with the blood suppression that Maria formed on Nicholas, Catherine, the fourth sister, obviously spent a lot of time playing with her two younger brothers. However, because of Anna's matter, when they grew up a little, they didn't play together as much.

Such a close relationship between siblings, considering the brother-sister relationship between Catherine and Alexander.

It seems that all the orthopedic stories of their family are in her hands.

Sometimes, the behavior was even too intimate, although that was only from a court perspective.

In ordinary families, brothers and sisters probably spend a lot of time together, so some intimate behaviors are not surprising. However, from the perspective of the royal family, they are probably too intimate.

Catherine was rather clueless in this regard, and when she was in St. Petersburg, she lacked a sense of boundaries.

"But now, sister, you have to go to the Loire River. The war will soon be over. Will you come to Paris then?"

"That depends on what my brother wants to do. And as for the matter in Paris, you should ask your master about it."

Nikolai also knew that his sister would say this, but what clever idea would Solovyov come up with?

Solovyov now just chose to hang up and sent a messenger to once again inform the fact that Paris had been controlled by the Russian army and requested the Bohemian Corps to arrive in Paris as soon as possible.

"But for this, I have to go through the Emperor, ask for instructions, and finally get approval before I can make a decision. In addition, I have to escort you out of Paris and through the safe non-combat zone to the castle on the Loire River."

After a while, Mr. Savary came in from outside and also asked Ekaterina for instructions.

"Your Highness, the carriage is ready. We are still within the truce period. Although Her Highness the Queen is reuniting with her relatives and friends, I would like to remind you."

"Well, Mr. Savary, you've done a great job. We'll be leaving in a little while. And Mishka, you rascal, can you take my pulse?"

"Well, Your Highness. After all, I am a local doctor, familiar with some foreign herbs, and I have some experience in this area."

Even Solovyov wanted to complain about himself, as he had many romantic affairs outside.

Of course, when the war is over, I can bring my family over and visit my aunt in Malmaison.

Besides this, what is the emperor's current condition?

Solovyov didn't think about it for the time being, and after taking Ekaterina's pulse, he didn't make any comments.

"Your Highness, your pulse is stable, which is a good thing. At least you are in good health, so there is no need to worry too much. It is not like when you were in the palace."

"My sister-in-law is not in good health, but she has given birth to many children, but she didn't give my brother a son. And my nieces are growing up, which is not easy. And the older Tonya and Martha should also find a husband. If the war is over, maybe I can help with this matter."

"But that will be in the future, Your Highness. What's important now is that you are in good health. You need to keep a regular schedule and do more outdoor exercise. The living environment should also be clean and tidy. Pay attention to it."

"Well, don't use the same tone as those doctors. Mishka, you are still a general after all. Your mission now is to escort us out of Paris, and then you can take over here."

"I am still wondering whether we should also ask dangerous people like Mr. Talleyrand to leave Paris."

Solovyov's elbow is not good, but he knows very well the danger of Talleyrand. If he gets Bourbon back...
Savary, however, was disappointing on this issue.

Talleyrand did not go to the Loire River with him, but found an excuse to go to the house of one of his mistresses, and the French Minister of Police came to nothing.

If it were Mr. Fouché, even if Mr. Talleyrand had a good leg, he probably wouldn't be able to run away. (End of this chapter)
