Chapter 279: Frederick (1/2)
The birth of the eldest son relieved many people, and the entire Vienna court was filled with laughter and jokes, telling the joy of a new life.
The name is very random in Europe, and it is dazzling at random. According to Franz's knowledge, there are more than ten generations of grandchildren who use a name continuously.
I really do n’t know how they usually get along. Fortunately, father and son have the same name. They can be distinguished by old and young. If five generations are in the same room, is n’t this name directly crashing?
Considering the terrible consequences, Franz decided to be cautious. The unlucky name was ruled out first. In history, the names of the two unlucky eggs killed by suicide were first eliminated.
At a family meeting, Franz asked, ”Do you think the little guy is called Caesar or Peter, or Frederik and Leopold, of course, other names can be mentioned?”
Queen Sophie took the lead to say, ”I think it would be better to call Rudolph, lest too many names in the aristocracy.”
Franz finally understood that the origin of the name Rudolph in history, and the relationship was settled.
But the situation is different now. In the face of precocious Franz, Queen Sophie's influence has greatly weakened.
In terms of the child's naming rights, he still has a greater right to speak, and now he comes out to discuss it. Franz himself is confused, not sure what the eldest son is.
Grand Duke Carl proposed: ”I think it's better to call Carl. I'm the old Carl. He is the younger Carl. The name sounds so kind!”
This lame reason just let Franz ignore it. He is still not used to the same name, even if he wants to have the same name, he can't have the same name with his family.
Queen Helen suggested: ”It would be convenient to call Franz.”
Franz rolled his eyes. How did it feel like he was looking for a difference? Looking at her cautious expression, Franz was sure this was not asking for trouble.
The four people in the court who have a voice, each with their own opinions, could not persuade anyone. Franz decided to ignore their opinions.
”So call Peter!”
”why?”
”why?”
”why?”
As soon as his son's name was determined, he was collectively questioned. Looking at the three angry people, Franz felt that if he could not give a reasonable explanation, it is likely that he would not be able to eat today.
”Your opinions are different. For the sake of family harmony, we have simply ruled it out!”
Empress Sophie said solemnly: ”Very well, then Peter can rule it out, it would be fair to do so!”
This proposal was supported by Grand Duke Carl and ”Queen Helen,” and ”Peter” also lost in the three-to-one case.
Franz said indifferently: ”Well, let's vote for the remaining alternative names. The high support is the name of the little guy!”
Franz thinks he still has a good manners and doesn't give his son a strange name. After all, it is the crown prince, and he has to save face.
There is a long list of many names in Europe. Don't be surprised. It is very likely that parents are arguing and finally add all the names proposed by everyone.
A name is a men's team, which can only be regarded as a pediatric, and a direct copy of a football team.
As for what to call in the future? I met my parents and said that these were all useless?
”Then vote!”
...
Everyone agreed to a democratic vote. In the end, ”Frederick” won by two votes. Franz speculated that there might be more Charles the Great of the Habsburgs.
...
Secretary of the Navy Philcos said excitedly, ”Your Majesty, we have completed the construction of our first iron armored ship, waiting for you to name it.”
I have to say that it is time for this ironclad ship to come, when the Crown Prince was born. Needless to say, Franz also knew that this was intentional.
Coincidence, where are so many coincidences in the world?
Not surprisingly, in the following days, the Vienna government will receive a series of good news, and these good news will happen on the same day that the prince was born.
It's no surprise that the auspicious aura can be found in the east, how can the western world be exempt? Everyone is a bureaucracy, and no one is worse than anyone.
Franz said calmly, ”Just call it Frederik!”
Since his men are so sensible, of course he will not object. These are not too much, at most, the iron armored ship was built, and the Crown Prince was waiting in the dock for a few days.
The purpose is naturally to brush up the sense of existence, otherwise, once the crown prince is born, the entire new Holy Roman Empire's media will pay attention to it, who will remember the iron armored ship?
The New Holy Roman Empire was a land-powered country. At first, the people paid little attention to the navy. Once you miss the chance of attracting the attention of the iron armored ship, the next big news will attract everyone's attention, you will not know what time it is.
The people in the country are more concerned about the birth of the crown prince, and everyone's attention in the world has stopped on the ”Frederik” iron armored ship.
Everyone was playing with the sailing ship. Austria suddenly developed an iron armored ship. This made many people very abrupt. Will this iron goose sink?
On December 12, 1856, the day after the birth of the crown prince, the Frederick ironclad set off from the port of Venice and began sea trials.
Without the presence of the media, this is a military secret, and Franz will not expose the internal information of the warship for the sake of face.
