Chapter 976 Emperor Zhu's House of Cards (First update, please subscribe)
What is virtuous or not, saint or not.
As the emperor himself, Emperor Zhu Da obviously had no awareness of being a saint. He had never thought about it. In fact, he had no interest in saints or not, and of course he could not have known that there was a guy in the folk who was so bold as to want to make a fuss about him, the emperor.
Of course, it was only in the Ming Dynasty that they dared to come up with such an idea. If it were in the Qing Dynasty, they probably wouldn't even dare to think about it.
Even though Qingfeng is illiterate, his entire family can be executed.
If you dare to write about the emperor, it would be a serious crime to execute all nine generations of your clan! But... this is the Ming Dynasty!
Emperor Zhu didn't care about this. Besides, although he couldn't become a saint, he could become a sage.
After all, the emperor is also an ordinary person and he also has sage time.
"Honey……"
Sissi's voice was charming and coquettish. She was riding on the back of Emperor Zhu and vigorously massaging his shoulders. She used the massage technique she had just learned. Although Sissi was a Bavarian Duchess and had never learned any skills to serve men, she loved sports and her talent in sports was unmatched by ordinary people.
Having stayed in the Ming Dynasty for four years, she is now not only a yoga master, but also a first-class massage technician. The strength of her kneading is just right, making Emperor Zhu, who has just experienced some "exercise", feel comfortable all over.
Elizabeth, sitting on the edge of the bed, watched the live sex show in front of her with a smile. She was not jealous at all. In fact, compared with Monica, Bellucci and Maria, she liked the Austrian queen with the same name as her more.
The queen had been "traveling" in the Ming Dynasty for the past four years, and even gave birth to a daughter for Emperor Zhu. If this spread to Europe, it would definitely be an imperial scandal, but the Austro-Hungarian Empire had long accepted the queen's "secrecy" - as early as ten years ago, she had been traveling around Europe and almost never returned to Vienna.
Now, she just lives in Daming permanently, and she even built a palace outside Zhongdu City - Achilles Palace at the suggestion of the Austrian ambassador.
Lady Elizabeth and Queen Charlotte were frequent visitors to the palace. Although there were rumors in Europe that Emperor Shengde was her lover, she did not reveal any of it for the sake of her legitimate husband.
Originally, Emperor Zhu was going to spend the night at Elizabeth's Red Maple Palace last night, but Sissi was a guest here - her daughter was nominally Elizabeth's daughter, and her Achilles Palace was adjacent to the Red Maple Palace, so naturally, the three of them slept in the same bed last night.
Although they are already in their early forties, they have been pampered and well-maintained. From their appearance, they look no more than 28 or 29 years old. Their skin is so crystal clear that it seems to be as delicate as a baby's. After all, they are the mothers of children, and their figures are extremely hot. Their tall figures, coupled with their stunning looks, always make Emperor Zhu obsessed with them.
"Put a little more force on your head...hmm..."
When Emperor Zhu was lying on the bed enjoying Sissi's massage, he not only felt physically comfortable, but also felt mentally comfortable in an indescribable way. After all, how many emperors in history could let the queen give them a massage?
There were many emperors like this, but... the emperor who could let other people's queens give him massages was the only one like him.
He planned to take a break in Yunding Valley these two days to relax his tense nerves. A balance between tension and relaxation is the way to long-term success. As an emperor, he did not want to tire himself to death.
Moreover, Emperor Zhu the Great did not have the spirit of Emperor Zhu Gao, who was diligent and hardworking in his work and had a personal involvement in everything.
If an emperor does not stop attending court early in the morning, he is already a holy and benevolent ruler.
As he stroked Sissi's strong and firm thighs with his fingers and enjoyed her massage, Emperor Zhu did not consider the thoughts of her legal husband, Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austro-Hungary.
Emperor Zhu really looked down on that emperor, not because of Sissi, but because his virtue was not worthy of his position.
Among the four great empires, which one is the most decadent?
It was the Austro-Hungarian Empire. After the four countries declared war on Turkey in 1877, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was the last to take action. They just picked a peach - annexed Bosnia, another world-famous Bosnia and Herzegovina. Historically, they annexed this region in 1908, and this was also the fuse of the First World War - Princip, a Serbian who was angry about the Austro-Hungarian Empire's occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, assassinated the Austro-Hungarian Crown Prince Archduke Ferdinand when he visited Sarajevo.
In this world, Serbia... only declared complete independence in 1877, so there was naturally no question of opposing the Austro-Hungarian occupation of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Moreover, Serbia and Montenegro, the Grand Duchy of Montenegro, divided Albania together.
What Zhu the Great despised was not the Austro-Hungarian Empire's act of picking peaches, but that they were not brave enough to pick peaches. As the ruler of the empire, Joseph I was only obsessed with maintaining his own power. Facing internal ethnic conflicts, he did not make substantial efforts to promote national unity, but only compromised and mediated, and appeased Hungary by establishing a dual empire. He was only satisfied with the checks and balances between localities, and did not fundamentally solve the problem of administrative inefficiency.
It was this kind of negative and incompetent attitude that ultimately caused the once-powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire to collapse after only a few decades and completely disappear in the long river of history.
This emperor!
Really incompetent.
He wasted decades of time since the pacification of Hungary in 1867. Originally, he had 30 years to reform, but unfortunately he had no intention of making progress!
He can't protect the empire, and he can't protect women. What's the use of such an emperor?
It is useless to the Ming Dynasty, but very useful to Britain.
In the past few years, Britain has been doing a lot of things in Vienna!
The British have been using the Balkan issue to win over Austria-Hungary and try to pull it onto the British chariot.
Because there have always been differences between Austria-Hungary and Russia on the Balkan issue, once the two countries fall into a split and confrontation... then the cracks in the Quadruple Alliance will become bigger and bigger.
In order to ensure that there would be no falling out, Russia - no, it should be the Roman Empire - announced three years ago that it would move its capital to Constantinople and change its name to "Roman Empire". It was simply impossible for Russia, which was wearing the skin of the Roman Empire, to offer more benefits to appease the Austro-Hungarian Empire!
The British have made a good calculation!
He only needed to stir up Austria-Hungary's dissatisfaction with Russia to split the Quadruple Alliance.
He is indeed a good card player in House of Cards!
We can’t let the British get what they want, and what about the Austro-Hungarian Empire... We have already reserved the Habsburg succession rights for our grandchildren!
Feeling that the man under her crotch seemed a little distracted - the pair of hands that were rubbing against her had long stopped moving, Xixi leaned behind him, pressed her body as warm as jade against his back, and spoke in a sweet voice.
"What are you thinking about, honey?"
"Miss you……"
Just when she was about to say that she missed her legal husband, the Emperor Zhu turned around and turned the female knight under him, smiling.
"You said..."
As he spoke, Emperor Zhu's hands and feet were already unsteady. At the same time, he hooked his finger at Elizabeth beside him, smiling at her and extending a warm invitation...
