Chapter 1323: The Grand Duchess of Austria

The capital of Austria, Vienna, at night.

Although there is no electricity in this era, it does not affect the nightlife of the European nobility in the slightest.

As the most prosperous city in Europe, when night falls, every house lights its oil lamps, and it is not much different from the daytime.

And at Count Austin's castle, the entire castle is even more brightly lit, with guests arriving one after another by horse carriage.

Count Austin greets every guest who arrives.

Time passes minute by minute, and the guests have basically all arrived.

But Count Austin is still at the castle entrance.

When he sees a magnificent horse carriage slowly approaching, a smile immediately appears on his old face.

Even the guests who have arrived, the nobles, are all waiting for this most important guest of the evening.

Count Austin stands to welcome the guest in person, opens the carriage door, and helps the woman wearing a gorgeous long dress step down from the horse carriage.

When everyone sees that exquisite face, they exclaim in admiration one after another.

Theresa is worthy of being the most beautiful woman in Austria; even in the dark of night, she remains the most dazzling star.

"Thank you." Theresa smiles faintly, expressing her gratitude.

Austin removes his hat to bow and says respectfully, "This is what I should do."

Under the watchful eyes of Count Austin, Theresa walks into the castle, where the banquet and ball have long been prepared.

But Theresa is a little surprised, because this ball is actually lacking music; before she came, Count Austin was still boasting to her.

Saying that he had invited an artistic master today who could play the music of the gods.

This makes Theresa endlessly curious; she is a music lover, and she knows all those artists in Vienna, but Count Austin indicated.

It is not those people, but someone else; he also only heard this artist's performance by chance.

Count Austin never revealed his name.

This completely stirred up Theresa's curiosity.

But now on the stage, she does not see any artist, and she cannot help but look for Count Austin's figure.

But Theresa does not find Count Austin's figure in the castle.

"Where is the Count?" Theresa asks her maid in a low voice.

"He seems not to have come in and is still at the entrance."

Theresa is stunned; still at the entrance, besides herself, who else is worth Count Austin receiving in person?

"Let's go, let's go take a look..."

Outside the castle, Count Austin is still standing outside the door, looking around; it is getting late.

"Lord Count, with your status, besides the royal family, how many people are worth you receiving in person?"

Austin glances at the butler who cannot help but be meddlesome and says solemnly, "He is the honored guest of tonight and should play the music of the gods; you must not say more."

Upon hearing this, the old butler shuts his mouth resentfully, wondering what kind of artist it is that can make his Count, who is usually arrogant,

Receive him in person, to the point that even when Grand Duke Theresa arrived, it did not make him attach such importance to it.

"Oh, Count Austin, what kind of artist can play the music of the gods?"

Count Austin is stunned, turns his head to look over.

Theresa walks over slowly, and Count Austin bows.

"Grand Duke Theresa, does the banquet inside not suit your taste?"

Theresa smiles; she looks outside the castle and does not see anyone.

Feeling somewhat disappointed, she simultaneously reproaches Count Austin: "In Count Austin's discerning eyes, how could the banquet lose its standard?"

"It is just that today's party is missing the most important music. Count Austin, who exactly are you waiting for here?"

Count Austin bows apologetically again.

"Please forgive me, noble Grand Duke Theresa. I have mentioned this artist to you; please believe me, his performance level,

Is absolutely rare."

"Everything I am waiting for now is meaningful."

"Please wait a moment in the castle, and I will arrange some small pieces for you to enjoy temporarily."

Theresa smiles gently; the moonlight is bright, and she finds it somewhat amusing as she looks at Count Austin's old face.

"No, I also want to see the artist you spoke of here."

In the Vienna of this era, the status of artists is very high, even for someone with the status of Grand Duke Theresa.

Sometimes she would not hesitate to humble herself just to listen to an artist's performance.

At this time, the guests in the castle suddenly discover that the host of this party and the most important guest are not present at the moment.

But are standing at the castle entrance.

As if waiting for someone.

Everyone is surprised; what kind of person can make Count Austin and Grand Duke Theresa, two of the most prominent people in Austria, wait in person?

To welcome his arrival?

Everyone is inevitably curious and looks over one after another.

Finally, the sound of carriage wheels pressing against the ground arrives.

Everyone looks over by the moonlight; it is a horse carriage that is not magnificent, and can only be said to be an ordinary noble horse carriage in their eyes.

Plain and unremarkable.

But Count Austin and Grand Duke Theresa have been waiting for a long time.

The two walk over.

Watching the two men and one woman step down from the horse carriage, everyone is stunned.

Their attire could be considered noble, but they were merely second or third-rate Nobles.

For high-ranking Nobles like them, everything on their bodies, even their socks, was custom-made.

As for this clothing of theirs, one could only say it was something that could be bought with money.

Thinking about it this way, perhaps they were not even Nobles; they might just be wealthy merchants.

"Count Austin is actually personally welcoming a merchant; it is truly inconceivable."

Seeing these three people, Teresa's expression stiffened, and she immediately revealed her disgust.

Among the three, two were actually Longyan people; she was currently annoyed whenever she heard the word Longyan.

But Count Austin received these three people cordially, a happy smile hanging on his face.

He turned his head and introduced them to Teresa with great enthusiasm: "Respected Grand Duke Theresa, please allow me to introduce to you this exceptionally talented violinist from Vienna, Lord Yousefu."

Yousefu took off his hat and performed a deep bow with the highest respect; who in Vienna did not know the name of Grand Duke Theresa?

Yousefu had not expected that the person he was meeting today was actually the first female Grand Duke in the history of Austria; his heart was filled with excitement.

He recalled how he was once just a vagrant who could only perform in cafes, and he looked toward the man who had changed his life's destiny.

This Longyan man was the one who gave him the opportunity to perform for Grand Duke Theresa; this was an artist's dream.

"And these two are merchants from Longyan; their music has captivated me. This man can perform and create divine movements, and the person beside him is his virtuous wife."

"Allow me to grandly introduce to you, Liu Sheng and his wife, Yue Chan."

Liu Sheng and Yue Chan were the aliases of Liu Zheng and Xie Chan.

Upon hearing the name Liu.

Teresa's face turned frighteningly gloomy; they shared the same surname as that Longyan troublemaker Liu Zheng, who was mixed up with the troublemaker Frederick.
