Chapter 88 Encounter
Friedrich's nose bleeds wildly, and then he falls on his back, which really scares Talia.
She feels that she didn't run fast today, and it was obviously the other party who bumped into her, so how could it be so serious? Could it be that as Franz said, there will be internal injuries?
Talia still went forward to hold Friedrich's head and used a handkerchief to stop his nosebleed.
"Are you okay?" Talia asked, and said unhappily in her heart, "How can a grown man be so touch-proof."
Friedrich has not had such close contact with women since his mother died. He entered the military academy when he was very young, and then the artillery academy, the ship academy, and then the navy. There are almost no women in these places.
The women that this young man usually sees are all conservative and solemn. Those women almost never speak to men, their hands and feet are wrapped tightly, and even their hair is covered with a hat.
Friedrich has never seen this kind of palace dress that half exposes the northern hemisphere before, which is really too exciting for him.
Logically, Talia was wearing a skirt that was very common in upper-class social interactions, but Friedrich hated upper-class social interactions and was half socially phobic, so how could he have seen such revealing outfits?
Talia's long hair made Friedrich fantasize even more.
In fact, most women in this era usually looked like what Friedrich saw when they went out, but women with a little status in the court preferred to wear palace dresses or formal clothes.
As for Talia's long hair, it was more because she felt that it was troublesome to curl her hair, and at the same time, she felt freer and more comfortable with her hair hanging loose than wearing a hat.
Franz also felt that Talia was more suitable for long hair, after all, not every woman was suitable for hair hanging.
In addition, Talia was indeed a beauty. Taking all the above factors into consideration, it was not surprising that Friedrich had a nosebleed.
Friedrich lay in Talia's arms, intoxicated by her caress, letting her poke his nostrils with a handkerchief, and looked as obedient as a cat that was grabbed by the back of the neck.
Seeing that the boy's nosebleed had stopped, Talia helped him up and then touched his head.
"Sister has something else to do. Sorry for this time. I'll buy you coffee next time."
Talia didn't know Friedrich, but she knew his major's uniform, plus the age of the person opposite.
Talia could easily judge that the boy who bumped into her should be the child of a noble family, or an officer of the Royal Guards who was hidden by his ancestors.
Now she has more important things to do, and she has no time to take care of the children, although she is also doing things for the children.
Archduke Friedrich, who watched Talia leave, didn't think so. He thought that the other party must want to buy him coffee.
After confirming that there was no one around, Friedrich took out the bloody handkerchief and sniffed it hard.
Then he continued to walk along the path towards his destination happily, thinking about the scene of the next encounter. He even thought about having two children, a boy and a girl, and their names.
Soon they met again. The beauty in Friedrich's heart was tying a scarf for a child. The two seemed very intimate.
Friedrich immediately held his head and went crazy, "Is she pregnant?"
The royal gardener on the side wanted to greet him, but when he saw that Archduke Friedrich was a little out of control, he coughed twice.
Friedrich was a little absent-minded, and the gardener began to introduce him.
"Archduke Franz, this is Archduke Friedrich Ferdinand Leopold, you should call him uncle."
"Hello, Uncle Friedrich, I heard that you are the youngest genius in the history of the Austrian Imperial Navy. I have always wanted to meet you." Franz said.
"Archduke Friedrich, this is the eldest son of Archduke Franz Karl, Franz Joseph." The gardener continued to introduce.
"Hello, Franz. Do you want to play hide-and-seek or swing? But I suggest you find someone your own age to play with. I am not only your uncle, but also an officer of the Empire. I have to serve the Empire and have no time to waste on meaningless games."
Facing Friedrich's cold words, Franz was really a little surprised. He had met Archduke Karl's eldest son, Archduke Albrecht, before. Although he was tall and strong, he was easy to get along with, at least not as aggressive as this.
But soon Franz followed Friedrich's gaze and found something wrong. He was not looking at him, but at Talia.
At this time, the gardener also saw that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately stepped forward to make peace. The two of them should not have had lunch yet, so why not eat and chat.
The gardener snapped his fingers, and immediately a servant brought dessert and fruit wine.
Talia also wanted to ease the atmosphere. She didn't expect that she had knocked down an archduke, who looked very angry, and she had to find a way to remedy it.
"Yes, yes, according to the latest scientific research, people tend to be aggressive when they are hungry."
At this time, Talia found that Franz was also looking at her, with a questioning and accusing look in his eyes.
Talia had no choice but to lower her head and pick up the coffee pot next to her, first pouring a cup of coffee for Franz, and then walked to Friedrich. In a sense, Talia fulfilled her previous promise.
"Mrs. Sophie, thank you for the coffee." Friedrich said very solemnly.
Franz was very upset. This guy thought Talia was his mother, but this was even more strange.
The gardener immediately ran to Archduke Friedrich and whispered in his ear.
"This is Archduke Franz's tutor, Miss Talia, not Mrs. Sophie."
Friedrich's face changed several times. He was shocked at first, then ecstatic, and finally looked at Franz with a dark face, as if he wanted to fight Franz.
The scene was very embarrassing for a while, and Talia quickly stepped aside.
Although Franz didn't know what was going on, looking at Talia's expression, 99% of it was related to her. This kind of woman who has not received systematic court education is prone to trouble. No wonder he hasn't seen the beautiful Miss Ajani yet.
In fact, Franz really wanted to say a few words back, you are an officer of the empire, so am I, you are a major, and I am a colonel!
But Franz didn't do that. He decided to use his trump card to end this meaningless farce.
Franz hooked his finger, and Talia naturally understood what he meant. She took out a box and opened it on the table. Inside was a model of a ship.
When Friedrich saw the model ship, his eyes immediately lit up like the plastic man in later generations, and he played with it carefully.
But he quickly returned to his previous stinky face and said coldly.
"Your steam battleship doesn't even have a paddle wheel. Do you want to use the steam engine to drive the blower to blow the sails?"
Then he rushed to Talia with a smile, and Talia had to smile awkwardly.
The first chapter on the shelf, I don't know if it's on the shelf at 12 o'clock. I was going to post it in the evening, sorry.

The second node that would change the fate of the Austrian Empire was very close, and Archduke Frederick was one of the key chess pieces.
