I'm the Dauphin in France

Chapter 151 Little Lolita and Her Bearded Mr.

The sun is shining, the sky is blue and the clouds are white. The weather is so good that it makes you feel happy.

Paris suburbs. It was still the King's Avenue where the Princess of the Two Sicilies came, and once again welcomed distinguished guests.

This time, the decorations on both sides of the road remained basically unchanged, except that the troops responsible for guarding all had new faces, and their number was much larger than last time.

Due to the impact of the "gang attack on the Crown Prince" half a month ago, Queen Mary even mobilized the King's Swiss Guard to escort her niece who was about to arrive.

For a time, the Paris Legion in white uniforms and the Swiss Guards in red uniforms alternately guarded both sides of the road, forming another landscape in red and white.

In the carriage, Clementine flashed her big eyes that were somewhat similar to Joseph's. She glanced over the densely packed body of guards. She held her head up proudly and smiled at the Tuscan ambassador in Italian: "French." Count Nano, did you see that His Royal Highness the Dauphin personally came to greet me with almost the entire Paris army?

"Well, he must have heard about my cuteness from many people, haha."

The square-faced middle-aged man shook his head slightly with a grimace, and said to himself that you had not heard of the attack on the French Crown Prince a while ago. The stricter security was probably not for you...

Suddenly, a high-pitched trumpet sound came from ahead.

The Grand Duchess of Tuscany hurriedly put away her playful smile, hurriedly arranged her clothes, picked up the feather hat and put it on her head, and then began to recite in a low voice what she was going to say later.

The car stopped, and Ambassador Fanano bowed and opened the door. Clementine put on her most dignified appearance and walked down the wooden steps.

However, when she reached the second step, her foot suddenly slipped, she lost her center of gravity, and fell down with a scream.

Fortunately, the guard next to her had quick eyesight and quick hands, and jumped forward to drag her down. Only then did she almost avoid the embarrassing scene of chewing mud at her mouth, but the beautiful feather hat had already flown more than ten steps away.

Clementine's face blushed slightly. She looked up and saw the handsome Crown Prince looking at her. She hurriedly broke away from the guard's hand, picked up her skirt and walked forward, curtsied and said in impure French: " It is an honor to meet you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince!

"Um, well, I saw everyone was looking serious just now, so I pretended to slip to make everyone laugh, hee hee..."

Joseph looked at the little loli in front of him who was talking to herself in a strange accent. He couldn't help crying or laughing. He hurriedly touched his chest and returned the greeting: "I'm glad to see you too. You are so funny, haha."

"Oh, by the way, in order to thank you for coming to pick me up, I have something special to give you." Little Loli said, taking a small wooden box from behind.

"'Li' thing" Joseph asked doubtfully, "Do you mean 'gift'?"

"Oh, yes, it's a gift." Clementine scratched her head and smiled, "My French is not that proficient, so don't take it too seriously. Here, this is for you."

"Thank you so much." Joseph took the wooden box and opened it, and saw a yellowed paper folding fan inside. "Is this... a folding fan? Give it to me?"

The little Lolita had a profound expression on her face and waved her hands: "No, dear cousin, this is an antique. I heard that you are very knowledgeable about Eastern culture, so I bought this for you. Oh. , it is said that this was used by a famous scholar in the Far East called 'Confucius'!"

"Confucius? Folding fan?!" Joseph held his forehead helplessly. The paper folding fan from the Spring and Autumn Period... This is equivalent to the Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain plate with "Microwave Suitable" printed on it, or the bronze Four-Sheep Square Zun. The four sheep are Pleasant Goat and Mei Goat. Sheep, lazy sheep and boiling sheep...

Although he knew it was a bit impolite, Joseph couldn't help but ask: "How much did you spend on this antique?"

"It's not expensive, it's 120 ducats." Little Lolita said happily, "As long as you like it." 120 ducats is nearly 800 livres. Oh my God! Spending so much money to buy a fake... Joseph was a little confused about whether to remind her, but thinking that the little girl had good intentions no matter what, he decided not to embarrass her.

He put away Clementine's gifts and exchanged greetings with her. Just as he was about to ask her to get in the car and return to the Palace of Versailles, he saw that she had already jumped in front of Quesode, smiling very brightly: " This is a gift for you, I hope you like it."

Then, she gave gifts to Eman, the chamberlain who was traveling with him, and gifts to the officers of the Paris Legion...

Joseph raised his forehead again. Isn't this little girl a little bit awesome?

Clementine was giving her happy birthday when a dark cloud suddenly covered the sun, and it started to rain lightly in the sky that had been clear just a moment ago.

Joseph hurriedly took the opportunity to greet his cousin Sheniu to get in the car. The convoy was greeted and set off again.

However, before reaching Paris, the axle of Clementine's carriage suddenly broke. Joseph looked at the raindrops jumping on the ground and asked Eman to invite his cousin to his car.

The little Loli wiped the rain off her arms and face with a handkerchief, and said with a smile: "The car broke down suddenly. But it doesn't matter, I often encounter such bad luck, haha. People must always stay optimistic."

As she spoke, she magically took out a handful of candies and placed them on the wooden table in front of her. She tilted her head and looked at Joseph: "Cousin, let me treat you to some candies. This vanilla mint candy is my 'tan' point." The master’s unique skills can’t be found anywhere else.”

……

Fortunately, the rest of the journey went smoothly, and the rain gradually stopped when the convoy arrived at the Palace of Versailles.

Queen Mary, with a friendly and affectionate smile on her face, was waiting with Louis XVI on the marble square outside the main entrance.

The little Loli got out of the car and jumped up to salute the king and queen. Then she threw herself into her aunt's arms and quietly stuffed a handful of vanilla mints to her: "Mr. Reiner made these himself. "

"Oh, thank you so much, my sweetheart! It sure tastes like home."

When Clementine saluted all the way and came to Princess Therese, she immediately became excited when she saw the blue-gray Chartreuse cat in her arms: "Wow! It's so beautiful and cute! I can touch it." Touch it?

"Wow, he is so well-behaved. By the way, I also have a cat. I love him very much. His name is Mr. Beard."

"Oh, you must also want to see Mr. Beard. I'll pick him up, hehe!"

Thérèse watched in confusion as the little girl turned around and ran towards the servant's carriage, then returned holding a long-haired cat with black and white stripes.

"Look, isn't it cute too?"

When Joseph saw Clementine's cat aside, he was almost amused - the cat's head was basically pure white, with only a small amount of black hair growing on the "philtrum", which looked very much like a certain person. Art failed student.

No wonder it's called Mr. Beard.

What no one noticed was that Mr. Beard's eyes were looking directly at the Chartreuse cat in Thérèse's arms, and he suddenly stretched out his paws and waved them in the air, and kept meowing "meow" in a flattering manner. Thérèse's cat also responded by squirming charmingly.
