You’re partly right. When I want to listen to the most beautiful harmonic music that ordinary people have never heard before, I go to bed.
Great. that’s perfect. sleep, dear count. sleep. opera is hypnotic.
No, your band is really noisy. I said that kind of sleep must have a quiet environment and help with some kind of medicine
Ah, it’s the famous marijuana, right
Exactly, sir. Come and have dinner with me when you want to listen to music.
I already enjoyed that kind of preferential treatment when you had breakfast together.
You mean that time in Rome?
be
Ah, then I think you probably heard Haide Qin. The poor man who lives far away from home often amuses me by playing with her native musical instruments.
Morcerf did not continue to ask about this subject, and Monte Cristo was lost in thought when the curtain bell rang.
I’m sure you’ll forgive me for leaving you for a while, said the count, and then turned and walked to his box
What, are you leaving now?
Say something nice to the countess on behalf of zombies
What can I say to the countess?
Just say if she allows me, I’m going to pay my respects to her tonight.
The third act is over. During this scene, the Count of Morcerf appeared in Madame Danglars’ box. He was not the kind of person who would arouse everyone’s interest or curiosity when he appeared in the public concert hall. No one else noticed him except him entering the box to watch the audience, but Monte Cristo’s keen eyes had noticed him. His lips passed a shallow smile. Haide was attracted by the stage performance. Like those people with pure nature, she was interested in talking about what to see and hear.
In the third act, Nobelle Yuri Eberwein Rose performed a toe dance as usual. Of course, Bert will challenge King Grenada. Princess Isabella’s father took his daughter’s hand and galloped on the stage with majestic steps for a week. He fully performed his velvet robe and cloak as he galloped. After these performances, the curtain fell again. The audience flocked from their seats to the lobby lounge. After the count left his box, he immediately called out to welcome the Earl’s Pavilion. As soon as he came in, she said,
I really want to see you, so I can express my gratitude to you in person.
Such a trivial matter is really not worth worrying about. Believe me, madam, I have forgotten all about it.
However, my good friend Madame de Villefort was almost killed by those two horses the next day, and it was not so easy to forget that you saved her.
I can’t afford that compliment. It was my slave Ali who was lucky enough to serve Madame de Villefort in a crisis.
Was it Ali who saved my son from the robbers? asked the Count of Morcerf.
No, count’s court Monte Cristo held the general’s hand with a friendly warmth and replied, I can accept your gratitude for that with a clear conscience, but you have already thanked him and I have accepted it. You always talk about it. I really feel sorry for the baroness to introduce me to your daughter.
Well, you are not a stranger, and your name is no stranger, replied Madame Danglars. In the last two or three days, we have been talking about you. Baroness Valentine turned to her daughter and said, This is the Count of Monte Cristo.
The count bowed and Mademoiselle Danglars nodded slightly to indicate that you had brought a lovely young girl to the count’s court this evening. Valentine said, Is she your daughter?
No, it’s not Monte Cristo, and she is very surprised by this question. She is an unfortunate Greek and I am her protector.
What’s her name?
Haide Monte Cristo replied
A Greek Earl of Morcerf said softly
Yes, it is. Madame Danglars, the count of the Greeks, said, Tell me, you were honored in the hands of Alitiebeilin. Have you ever seen a suit brighter than our eyes in his court?
So you once visited the Earl’s Court in spanlasssjj, Janina, and Monte Cristo said, Am I right?
I am the governor, and the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces, Morcerf, replied, I don’t have to hide it, because the fact is true. I made my fortune with the help of the generosity of the famous Albanian leader.
Look, look, Madame Danglars suddenly exclaimed.
Where did Morcerf stammer?
There was hiss. Monte Cristo put his arm around the count’s shoulder as he spoke, and he leaned together in front of the box. At this moment, Haide looked for her eyes in the theater. When the count saw his pale face, Morcerf’s face was close together, and he still held him. When she saw this situation, the girl was as frightened as when she saw Medusa, a monster in Greek mythology. Her face would see the humanized stone. She leaned over the railing as if to make sure what she had seen. Is it true or not? Then she gave a strong cry and fell back to her seat. The nervous cry of the Greek girl quickly reached Ali’s ear, and he immediately knocked on the balcony door to find out the reason.
Alas, exclaimed Valentine, what’s wrong with your ward? She seems to have suddenly fallen ill.
Probably the count replied, no, she was worried that Haide’s nervous system was very delicate, and her sense of smell was particularly sensitive. Even flowers could not bear to be brought to her, and she would faint. But Monte Cristo touched a small bottle from his pocket and continued, I am a panacea for this disease. Then he bowed to the countess and shook hands with Count Debray, and left the box. When he returned to Haide, he found that she was extremely pale and excited. As soon as she saw him, Monte Cristo noticed that the young girl’s hands were wet and cold.
Who was the master talking to just now? She asked in a trembling voice.
Answer Monte Cristo, Count of Morcerf. He told me that he had been in the hands of your famous father, and that he made a fortune because of him.
Ah, that bastard Haide shouted that he was the one who sold my father to the Turks, and he boasted that the property was his reward for selling him. Do you know that, dear master?
I have heard something about it in Epirus, said Monte Cristo, but I don’t know the details. Tell me later, my child. It must be very strange and interesting.
Yes, yes, let’s hurry. I beg you, I think I’ll die if I stay near this terrible person again. With that, Haide got up and wrapped her tightly in her white coral Kashmir cloak and hurried out of the box during the fourth act.
Did you see that the countess said to Albert that Albert had returned to her now? Everything was different from others. He listened to the villain Robert in the third act with great enthusiasm and left during the fourth act.
Chapter 54 Public debt storm
A few days after the party, Al Bermar Cerf went to visit the Count of Monte Cristo on the Champs Elysé es. Although he was temporarily living here, he was also richly decorated. Therefore, from the outside, his residence was like a palace, and Albert came to thank Madame Danglars again. Baroness Danglars had written a letter of thanks to the count, signed the name of Baroness Danglars’ mother, Emina Salvio, and accompanied Albert to visit. It was a smooth compliment when he talked with his friends. He concluded that Lv Xian’s visit was based on two aspects of curiosity, and on the one hand, he came to settle down on the main road. In other words, Madame Danglars could not see what kind of person the earl was, who could give away horses worth 30,000 francs and take them to a Greek slave girl when she was watching the opera. Wearing diamonds is worth millions of francs. What kind of lifestyle does he have? She is eager to know, but she can’t visit him personally to see the earl’s family. The furnishings in the home sent her most trusted eyes and ears to observe it and then went back to report it faithfully to her, but Xinjue pretended not to know anything and didn’t seem to notice the curiosity of the visiting Baroness Lv Xian at all.
