late at night

Li Mu looked at the classic but luxurious room, and then looked at his cold iron bed. No matter how he looked, he felt awkward.

Li Mu sighed helplessly, it has been two years!

That's right, Li Mu traveled through time. His current name is Franz Joseph, who is the old emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in history and the protagonist in Princess Sissi's love story.

The grandson of the Holy Roman Emperor Franz II, the eldest son of Grand Duke Franz Karl, and the daughter of Bavarian king Maximilian I - Princess Sophie Friedrika.

God seemed to have played a joke with Franz. In his early years, he lived a fairy-tale life, had an extremely beautiful queen and cute children, and controlled a powerful empire.

In his early years, Franz was worthy of the title of emperor, and he made his people, his country, his nation and the women he loved were safe and proud because of him.

Unfortunately, this seemed like a dream in Nan Ke, and it took a sharp turn for the worse in his later years.

His younger brother was shot in Mexico, his wife was stabbed to death by an Italian anarchist in Geneva, and his son committed suicide at a young age.

The selected heir was stabbed to death by the Serbian mafia. His retaliatory war for this caused tens of millions to fall into the sea of ​​blood, and the empire he fought for for his whole life collapsed in the war.

Franz's uncle, the current Austrian emperor Ferdinand I, was unable to have children due to congenital defects, and Franz was trained early on as the heir of the empire.

As the heir to the empire, he said goodbye to him in his childhood. Not to mention, the nobles had no relationship with Franz.

Study, study, or study. From the moment of birth, Franz received the most rigorous training.

I fell asleep on the cold camp bed and got up at four o'clock every morning. After washing it with cold water, I started a devout Catholic early prayer in front of the prayer table beside the bed, and then started a twelve-hour study.

Neither the cold winter nor the summer days have changed.

As soon as he traveled through time, ice and snow covered Vienna. For the first time, Li Mu thought he was going to be finished in the cold winter. Unexpectedly, his health was surprisingly good and he didn't even catch a cold.

More than 700 days and nights are enough to change many things. Now Li Mu is already Franz. He doesn't know that his willpower is so strong. As expected, people are forced out.

In the past two years, Li Mu, no, it is Franz now. He has retained most of the original owner's living habits.

Many times he wonders whether the memories of his previous life were dreaming.

After carefully comparing the historical exhibition, Franz felt helplessly that this world was exactly the same as the world he experienced in his previous life, and even the potatoes in Germany were not changed.

As a history enthusiast, he has not studied Austrian history much in his previous life. He clearly saw that the Austrian Empire, which looked very rich, was actually a strong man from the outside but also had to be hit hard and collapsed with just a slight push.

On the surface, the current Austrian Empire is still at its peak. As the leader of the Vienna Conference and the maker of the European order after the Anti-French War, it was playing the role of European military police at this time.

No one knows that this eldest empire would collapse in the Great Revolution two years later. If it weren't for the great powers' need for him to exist, the Austrian Empire would have become history in 1849.

Even though he barely survived, the Austrian Empire declined from prosperity.

Due to diplomatic failures, a series of military failures were led to a series of military failures, first the Austro-French war, then the P-Austria war, and even the Italians bit off a piece of meat from Austria.

A series of failures hit the authority of the central government and were eventually forced to make a compromise, transforming from the Austrian Empire to the dual Austro-Hungarian Empire.

The establishment of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in history was full of accidents, and Franz dared not bet that he could do better than the original owner. Now saving the Austrian Empire is his medium-term goal.

Of course, he can also choose to escape, give up the right to inherit the throne, become an ordinary person, and find a safe place to be a happy capitalist.

Unfortunately, Franz's ambition has grown after two years of aristocratic career.

Life is short, and decades have passed. Since you can travel through time once and stand at the peak of the world and be the trendsetter of the times, why should you retreat?

It was already late at night, and Franz continued to improve his country's saving plan, which has been revised many times.

...

"Duke, it's time to go to class!" the maid reminded softly.

The maid's voice woke Franz from her sleep.

"I understand!" Franz said helplessly.

Now he is a good student, politics, history, philosophy, language, religion... dozens of subjects, and he can pass the exam evenly.

That's right, if you add the grades of all subjects together, he will barely pass the average. If you fail, then round it up.

This is definitely a good student. Compared with the two younger brothers who are studying together, Franz is also an excellent student.

Of course, this is a result of different standards. His mother, Mrs. Sufi, had to do the best, but the two younger brothers' standards were just a matter of just getting what they wanted.

In Franz's view, this kind of education is essentially a failure. Too much course content requires rote memorization and there is no time to think.

There was no way, at this time, the Habsburg family had a change. Both father and uncle were innately owed IQ. The family's inheritance education was stale, and the imperial academic that was originally passed down by word of mouth was interrupted.

These courses were arranged by her mother Sophie, who was a loyal Catholic. She believed that as the heir to the emperor, she must be strong. Any expression of feelings was disastrous and that Franz was particularly strict.

In addition to learning his native language, Franz can write letters in French at the age of 8, and at the age of 11 he learned Magyar, Czech, Italian, and at the age of 13 he started dabbling in Latin and Greek...

Unfortunately, he failed to inherit the genes of the original master's academic master. After finishing the old money left by the original master, Franz's schoolwork became worse and worse.

Franz, who was proficient in eight languages ​​and could communicate with almost all ethnic languages ​​of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, has gone far away. Now there is only a poor student who works hard to pass the exam - Franz.
