Chapter 366 Body Search
Vienna, Schönbrunn Palace.
Franz was still admiring the Christmas costumes he designed. This year, the palace had a rare addition of a group of young and beautiful ladies.
He had another attendant, Major Bordeau, a typical Austrian nobleman, who was a little neurotic. He searched Adjani on his first day.
The result was predictable.
Miss Adjani was still preparing to report to Archduke Franz (chat) as usual, but when she walked to the door, she was stopped by some strangers. Although the guards were tall and strong, they were obviously small nobles from the countryside.
Because they seemed to have never seen a woman like Adjani, the unconcealed greed made her laugh.
"Who are you? Do you have a warrant from Madame Sophie or Major Bordeau to see Archduke Franz?" One of the guards said, but his tongue was a little knotted involuntarily.
This is actually an instinct. After all, in ancient times, beautiful women were mostly the private property of the chiefs. Ordinary people did not dare to have any ideas, because most of those who had ideas were killed by the "chiefs", or killed the "chiefs" and became the chiefs themselves.
So when men see beautiful women, their heartbeats speed up and adrenaline secretion increases. It is not necessarily a manifestation of love, but it may also be a sense of crisis engraved in their genes.
"Really loyal and reliable!" Ajani smiled deliberately frivolously.
"Like your Major Boldo, I am the attendant assigned by Mrs. Sophie to Archduke Franz. The things that the Archduke assigned to me before have been completed. The Archduke asked me to report to him as soon as I come back. Can I go in? Gentlemen."
Ajani directly threw the pot to Franz, saying that Franz wanted to see her, and these low-level guards did not dare to ask about Archduke Franz's affairs, nor did they dare to stop the attendant who was at the same level as their immediate superior, not to mention that the other party was such a beautiful woman.
The two guards tactfully made way and saluted in a very standard way.
Adjani seemed to be amused, and the beauty's smile made the two guards feel like spring breeze. But in fact, she was just deliberately making such an approachable gesture, because she instinctively felt that there seemed to be trouble coming for her.
But at this moment, someone shouted.
"Stop."
A thin tall man ran over quickly.
"Damn it! You idiots! Why didn't you search her before letting her in?"
The thin tall man roared angrily, and his saliva almost sprayed on the guards' faces. The two guards looked very scared, and Adjani knew that this should be the so-called "Major Boldo".
As Franz's aide-de-camp, she didn't know that the arrival of Major Boldo was probably arranged by Mrs. Sophie on purpose, after all, the previous Captain Parish was obsessed with her.
It seems that Mrs. Sophie was afraid that she had too much power around Franz, so she deliberately sent people to make trouble for herself, so that she could not win over the major, and of course she could not bully him too badly, otherwise new people would be sent.
After making up her mind, Ajani said.
"You are Major Boll, right? I asked them to let me in."
This time Ajani did not use Franz to pressure others, because she wanted to win over the two guards, at least to pretend that she was "in the same group" with them.
The two guards naturally did not know the deeper meaning behind this, but just thought that the other party was beautiful and kind. Both of them secretly made up their minds to pledge their love to each other, no, to die with their lives.
"Who are you?! What right do you have to let my men go? This is Archduke Franz's room! What are you going to do in there? Do you have a conspiracy? Do you have any weapons on you?!"
Bordeaux asked a lot of questions. Fortunately, Ajani had seen the other party's behavior pattern before and took out a fan in advance to resist, so she was spared from the attack of the spray. It was a pity that the fine ivory fan could not be used.
"I am the attendant of Archduke Franz, responsible for the daily life of the Archduke, and naturally have the right to enter the Archduke's room."
Ajani said neither humbly nor arrogantly, but her tone was deliberately raised by three points. She still hoped that Franz would come to solve the situation.
"How do you prove your identity?"
Bordeaux paced around Ajani, trying to find out some clues.
Fortunately, Ajani was well prepared, or Franz was well prepared, and everyone had an identity certificate.
Adjani took out her ID card, which was a photo taken with the latest photography technology at that time, and it was also a unique certificate.
"Please look."
Bordeaux took the certificate suspiciously and looked at it carefully, and even put his nose close to it to smell it.
Adjani's face was very bad. She didn't know what the guy in front of her wanted to do. After all, it was issued by Archduke Franz himself, so there couldn't be any problems.
"Fake! Catch her and torture her severely!"
When Bordeaux said this, everyone around was dumbfounded. The two guards hesitated to take action because they had received favors from Adjani before.
"You are talking nonsense!" This time Adjani really couldn't hold it anymore. She couldn't understand how someone could be so stupid that he could use sniffing to identify the authenticity of the certificate.
"This is a certificate issued by Archduke Franz himself. How can it be fake?"
"Humph! Ignorant little thief! I will let you die clearly today!" Bordeaux threw the certificate to Adjani and stood in the middle of the gate with his hands on his waist.
"Look at your age?"
Adjani took a look, and she felt very happy when she was 17 and paired with that beautiful photo. After all, she put on makeup for several hours that day and took hundreds of photos to get such a photo. Favorite.
"What's wrong with being 17? Can't you look more mature?"
The three people opposite looked at Adjani's chest in unison. The latter did not avoid it but instead puffed up her chest confidently.
Bordeaux slapped himself twice and said.
"This is your biggest failure!"
Adjani was a little confused.
"Am I not prettier than I was at 17?"
"No! Archduke Franz is only 12 years old this year. Miss Adjani became a chamberlain six years ago. How old were you six years ago? An eleven-year-old girl entered the palace as a chamberlain? Do you think I am an idiot? Is there any conspiracy behind your approach to Archduke Franz? If you don’t tell me, I will find a hundred ways to make you confess everything.”
Adjani never thought that changing her age to seventeen would cause such trouble. Bordeaux was proud of his "carefulness", and the two guards on the side also sincerely admired their immediate superiors and looked forward to the "hundred ways" in the future.
Seeing the three people slowly approaching her, Adjani was really embarrassed and annoyed. She suddenly showed a surprised expression.
"Archduke Franz, what's wrong with you?"
The three of them turned around subconsciously, and Adjani kicked the two guards in the crotch because their expressions just now were too obscene.
Colonel Bordeaux saw two subordinates covering their crotches and slowly falling down, and immediately protected his lower body with both hands.
"Hey! I can't kick it anymore."
Then he got a slap on the face.
"You dare to hit me?!"
Adjani slapped her again. Her arm strength was very good due to years of training. By the time Franz heard the chaos outside and came out to check, Colonel Bordeaux had already been slapped into a pig's head.
"Protect the Grand Duke."
