Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

The Duke of Sussex is the best-informed person in the family and he also gets along well with his siblings.

Amelia's letter made it clear that Charlotte was heading for Brighton.

To be honest, these place names in England can also form a group of football teams, and many of them are even Premier League teams in the future. Especially in the 21st century, even the "Seagulls" Brighton can go to the Premier League.

Among the port cities in the UK, this place is relatively fashionable at this moment. Princess Charlotte is still a girl after all, and she is unwilling to go to places like Weymouth or Bath, as they are either too deserted or a bit old-fashioned.

"To Brighton, only quicker."

"why?"

"I think my brother will be very angry. The whole family knows about this, but they just hide it from him. If we find it first, it will be a good thing. It would be best if we can give it to him. What's your name?"

"Leopold."

"Yes, I'll give you a chance. My dear niece, you finally fell in love with a handsome young nobleman who had made military achievements in the cause against Bonaparte. There is nothing to complain about such a talent. Naturally, you should strive for free love. We have suffered enough in our generation!"

The Duke of Sussex was right about this. They had 15 brothers and sisters, 13 of whom were raised. Among the 6 sisters, only the eldest sister, Charlotte, was married at the right age, and she was over 30 when she got married. The Hercules of Württemberg only had one daughter with her. Because the Hercules joined Napoleon's side, George III refused to recognize the King of Württemberg as his son-in-law when he was still sober.

As for the other sisters, as mentioned before, only Princess Mary was able to marry her cousin, but she was past the childbearing age, and the other sisters were not happy.

Amelia was ultimately unable to marry her lover. After the Royal Marriage Act came out, she was required to marry after the age of 25. However, due to her serious illness and the intervention of Parliament and her father who was still conscious at the time, she was unable to get married and is still a single old girl.

Therefore, the Regent wanted to force a marriage for his daughter, and Charlotte's reaction was so intense. It was obvious that as an uncle and aunt, they were willing to support their niece openly or behind the scenes.

Apart from the Duke of Cumberland, if there was any problem with the succession to the throne, probably all he could get was the land of Hanover.

However, George did not want the Duke of Cumberland to go to Hanover to serve as governor. He designated the Duke of Cambridge, but the succession to the throne was also a troublesome matter.

The main family of the Hanoverian royal family could not stay in Hanover in the end. This is also the particularity of the inheritance law. In the UK, males have priority in inheritance.

And this group of people headed towards Brighton.

In the past, Solovyov only appeared in London and Wimbledon, and rarely came into contact with people in rural areas of Britain.

While driving the carriage along the road, he also looked at both sides. There were some low walls made of stones, which were used as boundaries between pastures, farmlands or manors. Many of them were formed over the years.

Some of the civilians there also looked malnourished.

In Russia, the situation was also bad, but most serfs were now able to get poor but still edible rations such as black bread, so at least they could still eat their fill.

But serfdom itself had more problems. It is no wonder that after a group of young nobles came to Paris, they became fierce activists when they returned home, wanting to overthrow the Tsarist regime through an uprising or establish a constitutional monarchy.

However, this action was not only blind, but also a kind of self-admiration of a noble young master. In the end, he gained nothing and even dragged his wife to Siberia.

In the end, many of them returned, but their wives always disappeared before them in the Siberian snow and wind.

Moreover, Nicholas, who was originally in a neutral state, was finally frightened by the Decembrists and began his harsh autocratic rule.

What an autocratic monarch fears most is revolution, even an enlightened monarch.

Solovyov had seen in Britain that when George III was not crazy, he was able to firmly grasp Britain's domestic politics and decide the cabinet members, and he hated any revolutionary elements, even French wigs and luxury goods.

The situation in the UK is actually on the brink of a volcanic eruption.

It's no wonder that the Regent sided with the Tories, but his daughter is on the Whig side. Even though she's a runaway girl now, she spends money lavishly because of her grandfather's favor and the separate budget left for her, but there's nothing wrong with that.

Solovyov could have used Edward Gibbon's explanation that a person's generosity could also constitute a virtue - although this statement appeared in a passage before Commodus's complete depravity.

A female monarch naturally has the ability to stabilize the internal situation of a country, such as the monarchies in Europe.

The only exception is Russia, where strange things always happen.

After Peter the Great, the last two of the four empresses did more to expand the territory. If there was more territorial expansion and progress in Europe, it would probably be the brothers Alexander and Nicholas.
Then they can only find a sense of presence in Asia, and the victory achieved in Europe will not bring anything in the end.

It may also be that Russia has a vast territory, which results in a different size of the country and a different internal stability coefficient.

England is a particularly suitable place for the queen, especially after Henry VIII chopped off the heads of several of his wives. The king who did whatever he wanted and the queen who respected the Magna Carta and later national laws and did not seem to interfere much became better choices.

However, it depends on the great virtue of the Queen, and it also depends on the actions of the Queen. After all, she was able to cause such a large-scale population extinction worldwide. Queen Victoria's short and fat body, even after her death, sent the hemophilia genes to Russia and Spain. The KPI caused by genetic factors has caused no less trouble than when she was alive.

It was because of this that Solovyov liked Princess Charlotte, who looked like Chichiben, more and more. She was so young that only childbirth or a serious illness could bring her misfortune.

If she could be saved, perhaps the world would have a lot less trouble.

Solovyov had a deep understanding of women's stubbornness when he was at home.

Before he got married, his stepmother looked everywhere for a suitable noble lady for him; Katya was also very stubborn in her beliefs, and if she really met someone who treated her badly, she would not choose to divorce because of her devout faith; and he had met all kinds of women, and in short, they still had great potential in this area.

Princess Charlotte is like this at such a young age. She will definitely be something special in the future. Oh my, oh my
But this may not be a good thing for the British Empire, which is now a superpower, but it may be a very good thing for other countries.

On this basis, he naturally had more motivation to help Leopold and Charlotte get together successfully.

But after arriving in Brighton, I saw that although it was "fashionable", the situation was not that good.

You have to know that it is always like this in the UK. Workers are constantly exploited, and in some places there are not even any beds.

If you want to be like a tramp in some warm place, it's good to have a piece of land to lie down, or to lie in a relatively clean ditch by the roadside like the Romans used to do.

They often had to hang on a rope and sleep while "hanging" the night before. The next morning someone would cut or untie the rope and they would have to go to work.

Even for such a place, you still have to pay. Solovyov sometimes wondered if those young nobles came to Britain and saw the poor living conditions of the workers in Britain.

The rope hotel above is just one example. Three-year-old children are cleaning chimneys, and workers in factories are quickly exploited to the point of premature death, with life expectancy far below expectations.

Even the workers' resistance was caused by the emergence of machines, and there were actions such as the "Luddite Movement" to destroy machines.

Solovyov could only say that the workers had probably awakened to some extent, but it was only a state of awakening.

The main problem is still caused by this kind of labor relationship.

However, there are countless examples of latecomers jumping into a pit they had in front of them. Probably in a hundred years, it will be Russia's turn to face these problems.

As for envy of Western countries, sometimes it is unnecessary. After all, the accumulation of wealth is accompanied by blood and flesh and mountains of bones.

Is this good? This is not good! You just see the country they are in. They may have a high income now, but there will always be something.

Differences are sometimes inevitable, but a revolution alone cannot solve the problem.

Revolution is to remove the tumor, give the patient a recovery period, and then solve the problem through continuous change.

The idea of ​​continuous revolution is also funny. We must always cure a patient and give him a chance to recover.

Which good person can withstand such torture?

What Solovyov saw was different from what the Decembrists and early Russian revolutionaries, who were one or even two generations younger than him, saw.

However, if he were given a choice, he would definitely choose a one-shot kill instead of dragging it out like the Tsar is doing now.

As for the Decembrists, they might have an even lower opinion of them, as if Yuan Shu could become emperor just by taking the imperial seal. They probably thought that as long as the revolution began, everything would be solved.

Well, the trouble is always there.

Now that he has arrived in Brighton and met Charlotte, the Duke of Sussex is also thinking of a solution.

But although he was able to settle many issues within the family, the issues between his niece and his eldest brother were also very troublesome.

"Uncle, how about we adopt a four-stage tactic?"

"what?"

"In essence," Solovyov, as the person who copied the secret book, still has the right to interpret, "it was too late to wait until the regent found out. At least something should have been done before that."

"That's it. But I have to pretend that I ran away from home, and then Leopold, you have to find me in Brighton. It's quite far from London, so even if the cabinet and parliament react, it will be too late."

This girl is really smart and she quickly mastered the routines of civil servants.

Moreover, with Chi Chiben's figure, not to mention the nobles and commoners of this era, even if he were in the 21st century, he would be much better than them.

At least there is something in this brain.

However, Solovyov was not the princess's tutor. Although he gave a solution, it was still the British method.

In the future, London will probably become a spy base for St. Petersburg.

At this time, the Russians can steal intelligence from the Navy Ministry under the Tsar. When the era of the Five Heroes comes, each of them will be one of us, and in the end the intelligence will still have to be handed over to the Kremlin with both hands.

As for the British themselves, they are actually also procrastinating now.

Charlotte has made some progress in her studies, but it will take some time before she can put it into practice.

I just don't know what she would do if she encountered the situation of using cavalry to disperse the workers?

Solovyov did not try to ask her about the Luddite movement. This was another problem with female heirs to the throne; they were often only able to participate in assigned official duties.

Even William II was taken to the Moabit district by his teacher when he was a child, and he knew how difficult life was for the workers.

Charlotte was limited to waving to the shabby-dressed citizens and workers in the carriage, and had no experience of close contact with these people.

In order to dig a big hole for Britain, Solovyov had some other ideas.

But the atmosphere we want to create now is that Leopold and Charlotte should live happily together.

Compared to the Prince of Orange who was always in and out, Leopold was much more normal, and the hair on his forehead was so thick that it would probably be difficult for him to become bald when he got old.

Given the Prince of Orange's current situation, Anna will probably suffer in the future.

After all, if this couple is broken up, it will be necessary to arrange a marriage partner for the Dutch.

Anna is just about to get married, and is the first choice among the princesses of marriageable age to match the Prince of Orange.

But with this status, probably nothing will happen.

Among the Dutch royal family, the Crown Prince himself probably has a relatively bad reputation, while the others are not so bad.

Therefore, if Anna went there, she would probably just feel bad with her husband, but her parents-in-law would support her in the future. The advantage that marriages between Russia and small and medium-sized countries bring to them is that there is always a huge country backing them up, so they always seem to have more confidence.

Anna, the "sixth child", had almost revealed the truth by accident several times before, so it was appropriate for her to get married.

As for the matter of women's clothing, it has been made public in the Russian court, and Solovyov actually wanted to cut it off. (End of this chapter)
