Chapter 1390 Reward

If Napoleon was traveling on horseback instead of riding in a carriage, he would have held the riding crop in his hand. When he walked, the end of the riding whip would tap lightly on his military boots, making a crisp sound.

His steps were quick, even over the rough roads, and his back was straight.

It's just that his head is disproportionate to his thin body, especially after wearing the three-cornered hat, his head looks even bigger.

This kind of figure is really not suitable for sculpture and painting because it does not conform to the aesthetics of the human body.

But he actually exercised his body, especially his lower limbs. His leg muscle lines are much better than those of his upper body.

The army is different from the navy. Movement depends entirely on the legs. This is how she understood it.

There is this description in Homer's Odyssey:

The wise Telemachus brought the troubled guests into his splendid and tall mansion. They took off their robes and placed them on commodes and wide chairs, and then entered the carefully polished bathroom to take a bath.

After the maids bathed them, they carefully anointed them with olive oil, and put them in furry robes and clothes. Then they walked out of the bathroom and sat down on the chairs. A maid brought them a washbasin with a beautifully made

The golden pitcher filled the silver basin with water for them to wash their hands, and a smooth dining table was placed in front of them. The dignified maid brought all kinds of dishes and received the foreign guests attentively.

According to their previous bet, if Georgiana won, Napoleoni would be at her disposal. They did not say whether there were "pirates" coming to calculate Georgiana's victory or no pirates. Anyway, Napoleon let her win.

.Now he was like a fish waiting to be cooked, lying on a large chair covered with green Moroccan leather, letting Georgiana rub him with olive oil.

There was a smooth table within his reach, with a large basin of dates, a few pancakes, and a bottle of ice-cold champagne on it. The bathroom built by Louis XIV was filled with white mist.

The hot water drives away the severe cold, making it almost impossible to feel that it is the severe winter at this moment.

"Push harder."

Georgiana rubbed the muscles of his legs with a pinching force.

At the moment she is wearing an Egyptian skirt, which should be worn by maids. It is very convenient for movement and does not have a long skirt like a floor-length skirt. In addition, the only jewelry on her body is an emerald short necklace.

She wore it as a forehead ornament, which pleased "Caesar" because Cleopatra was said to be very fond of emeralds.

She did not let unmarried girls enter this place. After all, they were in France in the 19th century, not Rome before BC. Corsicans were not shy about exposing their bodies at all. It was the same as wearing clothes without clothes. On the contrary,

Georgiana felt extremely uncomfortable in her clothes.

"Can you stop humming!" She stopped her hand and said angrily.

He looked back at her.

"I feel very comfortable. Why can you scream when you feel comfortable but not me?"

At this moment, Georgiana wished she could have a whip in her hand and hit him.

He lay on his side, propped his head on his hands, and waved to her.

"come over."

She was so angry now that she wanted to beat him up.

But now he is covered in olive oil and looks like an ancient Greek bodybuilder.

"Do you British people only pounce on gold coins impatiently when you see them?" he said impatiently.

"I'm a girl, I can't do this." She said very seriously, "Did your mother teach you to pursue whatever you want?"

"You think there's something wrong?"

"It doesn't matter if it's a boy."

"Don't worry, it's just you and me here." He stretched out his hand towards her.

"I hope you won't tell anyone about my 'naughty' things. Only you and Severus know about this." She said seriously, "I don't want to become a topic that others talk about."

He put his hand down.

"There is another card in the Tarot, the sun. It reminds me of you." She said softly, "Sometimes you are like a child."

"Are you flattering me?"

"I'm talking about how I feel right now."

"Then do you know how I feel now?"

She waited quietly for him to say.

"I'm thirsty. Pour me a glass of wine."

Georgiana immediately went to pour him wine. The golden champagne was poured into the silver cup, and the bubbles exploded making a rustling sound.

She handed him the glass of wine, but he took it and put it aside. Then he took her wrist and let her fall into his arms. He began to kiss her forehead, eyebrows, eyes, and nose.

, say a word of praise every time you kiss a place.

She didn't drink, but she already felt a little drunk.

"Do you want to know what we talked about?" he asked, hugging her affectionately.

"What conditions did the Prince of Wales say?"

"It's not the condition he said. It was the Tsar who helped us Zhou Xuan. The British can continue to be stationed in Malta for three years until the Knights of Malta are able to protect themselves." He whispered in her ear, "The Duke of Orange's claim."

It will no longer be included in the peace treaty and will be negotiated in Berlin instead."

"Where are the prisoners?"

"The Prince of Wales said that I would exchange all the French prisoners for one of yours. I told him that your Prime Minister is still with me. Guess what he answered?"

She shook her head.

"He said, 'I'll give you another dozen, do you want it'?"

Georgiana smiled.

"Don't think that William Pitt Jr. is a good man. He is only currently in opposition. Britain has cut military spending but not the number of its navy. The pay of ordinary soldiers is still the same as in the 17th century. The food is poor and they don't have any holidays. In 1797, the navy was at the Thames Estuary and

There was a riot in the Netherlands, but the Directory was in power at the time. They were having disputes with the two houses of parliament and missed this opportunity to negotiate peace."

"Is it the same as now?" she said worriedly.

"The situation is different now. All payments made by the UK to the Anti-French Alliance are in gold reserves. In addition, gold is used to pay freight and insurance to neutral countries that serve the UK. The gold reserves in the Bank of London have been exhausted.

"

"The Prince of Wales told you this?"

"He is telling me that Britain is no longer able to fund royalist activities." Napoleon said calmly, "Except for the Duke of Orleans, everyone else lives in an apartment in London, and the prisoners live in the dock. Our grain ships can pick them up at any time.

If they leave, do you think I will be that stupid?"

"You like the Prince of Wales?"

"If he were not the crown prince, he would be the best comedian in Europe. I saw his troops, most of them were new soldiers. The high price of grain has reached an unsustainable level. He does not want the revolution that happened in France to happen in England.

.”

"The Tsar is gone too?" asked Georgiana.

"No, his brother Grand Duke Constantine is here. I really hope I can have such a brother." Leon said with emotion.

"What are his characteristics?"

"Be obedient and have no ambitions."

"Maybe he was acting." Georgiana pointed to Napoleoni's ancient Greek nose. "You didn't want to play a serious general before."

"Queen Catherine is a terrible woman. Do you know how she treated Turkish prisoners?"

Georgiana shook her head.

"She ordered all the prisoners to be killed, and the blood stained the Black Sea red. After comparing with her, I found that the British still have some conscience."

"I don't want to talk about this topic anymore," she said sadly.

"Growing up next to a woman like that, I think it would be difficult not to become like Grand Duke Constantine, but she is a good queen and the Russian people like her very much." He outlined Georgiana's features with his fingers. "I want a real

Our child, the Queen of Scots."

"Are you kidding or is this a condition imposed by the crown prince?"

"What do you think?"

"Unless the prince is crazy." She grabbed his hand and kissed it, "I am your Cecilia, Sultan."

"I heard Canova is sculpting you?"

"I have no idea what kind of image he will make of me." She complained exaggeratedly.

"Tell me, priestess, how can I please the Harvest Goddess?" Napoleoni showed that charming smile again.

As Teresa said, he has a very elegant temperament and looks like a god.

"I thought the harvest goddess should be holding grapes in her hands, but then she wouldn't be the priestess of Dionysus." Georgiana said distressedly, "Paulina once pretended to be her."

He finally lost patience and threw her down, but the leather lounge chair was covered with olive oil and they fell to the floor together.

"That time when you ignored me, I was like a dying person." He stared into her eyes and said, "I had no ideas, it was like my inspiration had left me."

"I thought your last naval battle was a crazy adventure."
