The latest station name: Aoyu Pavilion The latest website:

"Caesar, do you know what expression you should show after seeing His Majesty the Emperor?" Marin asked.

"Hmm...respect?" Caesar asked uncertainly.

"It's too blunt, and Hay has to add some kindness to his expression. Think about it, your expression when you see your grandfather... To have that kind of admiration is to see the joy of elders and relatives... In this way, you can put His Majesty the Emperor imagined to be your grandfather. Anyway, the Emperor and the Pope are both Emperors..." Marin pointed.

Under the one-on-one guidance of Marin, Caesar practiced many times, and finally acted out the expression of respect and admiration. Then, Marin taught Caesar what expression to use when he saw Prince Charlie, and what tone to use when speaking... And, this part is the key point...

After all, His Majesty the Emperor is also an old fox. If he wanted to show off his acting skills in front of His Majesty the Emperor, Marin had to come in person. Caesar's age is not enough to watch. However, Prince Charles, the grandson of the emperor, was the same age as Caesar, only two years older than Caesar, so he was easy to deal with. As long as a little acting skills, you can pass.

Marin's request to Caesar is to win the favor of Prince Charlie and express his support for him in the future...

"So, how to win the favor of Prince Charles?" Caesar asked.

"Hmm..." Marin thought for a while, looked at Caesar's mount, and said

"Give your mount Kaspersky to Prince Charlie..."

Kaspersky is the son of Marin's current mount, Carter, and the grandson of Marin's earliest mount, Karl. It has the blood of native Malaysians and Arabian horses. It is a group of very good young war horses, and it is also a fine product cultivated by the Beihai State War Horse Breeding Center. Putting it on the market, it can definitely be sold for more than 500 gold coins.

"But...but I'm so reluctant..." Caesar was a little reluctant. After all, since Kaspersky was given to Caesar by Marin, Caesar often fed the horse and shoveled horse manure himself, and he had a lot of affection for the horse.

Marin patted Caesar on the shoulder and said meaningfully

"As a king, don't take property too seriously. You must know that 'gold and silver are scattered, but people's hearts are gathered'. If you are reluctant to give, you will not get anything in return."

Then, Marin sighed and said

"Hey, it's my fault too. When you were born, the name given to you was too ridiculous. Caesar, that's the title of the emperor! With your name alone, the emperor's grandchildren will be afraid of you. After all, They are also worried that you will compete with him for the throne of the Holy Roman Empire."

"But you know, in the next few years, we have too many things to do and a few tough battles to fight. At this critical time, a reliable ally is necessary. Although the Habsburg family is poorer than ours, it is also It can't be fought without our army, but, after all, they are the emperor's family, and their political influence is still very large. We need their political support very much, and we have no reserved political support."

"So, this time, no matter what, you have to show a close and friendly attitude to Prince Charles. You must even express your support for him to become emperor in the future. In this way, the Habsburg family's political support for us will be strong enough !"

...

In fact, Marin was right. The name he gave Caesar at the beginning really aroused the embarrassment of His Majesty the Emperor. Maximilian I knew that although Marin was a man with a heavy heart, he was still willing to serve the Habsburg family. Because both parties have the same interests. At least, Marin, a prince from grass roots, needs the emperor's political support very much. Moreover, Marin can be said to have been single-handedly promoted by the Habsburg family. In this age of knightly virtues, even if a knight becomes prosperous, half of them will take into account the feelings of their benefactors.

However, Caesar is different from Marin. The Habsburg family had no favors for Caesar. Once Caesar succeeded to the throne after Marin's death, Caesar, who had no deep relationship, was likely to change camps and go to the princes to become the opposition of the Habsburg family.

Even Maximilian I was afraid that the extremely wealthy Hoffman family would, in Caesar's generation,

The idea of ​​competing for the throne of the Holy Roman Empire arose. After all, His Majesty the Emperor knows very well that as long as people are willing, they can spend more than one million gold coins. The Habsburg family often needs to borrow from financial families like the Fugger family in order to spend hundreds of thousands of gold coins for the election for the throne.

Caesar, who has money and status and has no deep relationship with the Habsburg family, is likely to become a future competitor of his grandson Charlie. Therefore, Maximilian I also had a headache. Hearing that Marin was going to bring his son to visit, His Majesty the Emperor also privately told his grandson that he must have a good relationship with Caesar. If you can establish a friendship with the other party, that is the best.

...

In this way, under the intentional maintenance of both parties, the whole meeting process was very harmonious and beautiful. It goes without saying that Maximilian I and Marin, who both have the "surname Ma", needless to say, the two children also get along very happily.

Facing His Majesty the Emperor, Caesar performed well what is called "child admiration". Even, because he was too involved in the drama, he almost called out the title of "Grandpa"...

Later, facing Prince Charlie, who was also young, Caesar said naturally and shamelessly what Marin taught him, "I feel that you are so kind. Seeing you is like seeing a friendly brother"...

Then, it's just an explanation. Why am I the eldest child in my family, my parents are strict in discipline, and I have always longed to have an elder brother who takes care of me when I was a child... blah blah blah...

And the immature Prince Charles, the future His Majesty Charles V, was also overwhelmed by the shameless words of Caesar, who was two years younger than him... When we met for the first time, this guy was too enthusiastic... Could it be, I really Like his brother? However, he is clearly the eldest son...

Before Prince Charlie could figure it out, Caesar pretended to be happy, saying that seeing Brother Gongming...ah no, it was Brother Charlie who was really happy. I don’t have anything to give away, money is too vulgar (Prince Charlie—don’t, I don’t dislike vulgarity), so I’ll just give you my beloved BMW...

Then, with a look of reluctance, Caesar took his own horse, Kaspersky, and gave it to Prince Charles. The reluctance on his face is definitely showing his true feelings...

Seeing the reluctance on Caesar's face, but in the end he resolutely gave the horse to himself, the inexperienced Prince Charlie was really moved. Although his imperial grandfather was also very high in political struggle and usually instilled some strategies in him, but Caesar's expression on sending the horse was too real, it confused him, and then moved him...

"Good brother, share the blessings. In the future, when I inherit the throne, I will definitely give you the greatest support. At least, I will find a way to make you an elector or king." After finishing speaking, Prince Charlie secretly observed Caesar expression……

This is actually the task entrusted to him by Maximilian I - to observe Caesar's ambitions...

If Caesar's expression was dissatisfied when he heard him say "I will become emperor in the future", it probably means that Caesar had the desire to covet the throne. For a 14-year-old child, it is difficult to hide his likes and dislikes, and it is easy to find clues on his face.

But he never thought that director Ma Da had already told Caesar about the play before the meeting. Moreover, it is a serious drama...

Caesar, who had been prepared for a long time, showed surprise, and then a smile appeared on his face and said

"Okay, okay, my father often said that the Habsburg family is very kind to our Hoffman family and is the most staunch ally of our family. I also hope that brother Charlie can become emperor. In this way, I have someone Covered..."

Then, Caesar patted his chest again, expressing that when he was electing the emperor, he would definitely contribute money and efforts to fully support Brother Gongming...Brother Charlie...Superior...

...

After playing for a whole day, when he left, the veteran actor Marin was still able to handle it with ease. But the little fresh meat Caesar spent a lot of time and energy, and lay down in the carriage to rest. Anyway, his BMW was also given to Prince Charlie, and it happened that he didn't have a mount.

"Don't give up, wait until I go back, and I'll give you that pony named 'Cayenne Porsche' that is no less than Kaspersky!" Marin comforted.

Caesar waved his hand and said

"It's not a matter of being reluctant to bear the horse, I'm just a little tired. Acting is really not easy, it takes so much effort."

Marin couldn't help laughing—you little fresh meats, you still have too little experience. At the age of an old bacon like me, my acting skills have already been fully developed. Acting in a play is as easy as lifting weights, without any effort...
