In the forest on the outskirts of Weimar, the Grand Prince Karl Alexander, who loves art and literature, is entertaining his good friend Fanny Lewald, Liszt and Wagner. Among the dense snow-covered forests, a group of several people rode their horses slowly, chatting while enjoying the snow scene.

“I like Mr. Andersen’s “New Fairy Tales”, I like his fairy tales… His stories are like the most beautiful waltz, always make me dance unconsciously…”

When talking about fairy tales, especially when talking about Andersen, Karl Alexander will become enthusiastic, like a kid who has just gotten a new toy and always wants to show off with his friends.

And his three friends are naturally not surprising about this. Although their grand prince is an out-and-out noble soldier, he has a soft spot for fairy tales, especially the fairy tales that love Andersen. It’s really strange. It is said that the Grand Duke frequently communicated with the Danish clown and chatted very hotly. That is to say, Karl Alexander cannot leave Weimar or Germany for the time being, otherwise he might really go to Denmark to fall in love with Andersen.

“It’s not like you can fall asleep with fairy tales. Maybe I liked it before I was a teenager, but I don’t feel that way anymore. I pay more attention to real problems, especially the real problems of our girls!”

Fanny Lewald is undoubtedly a feminist, and she does not leave her line of three regular sentences. Whenever she speaks, she will directly turn to this topic, but whether it is Carl Alexander or Liszt and Wagner None of this is of particular interest. But they can’t stop a good friend’s desire to speak, especially when the good friend is still a woman.

In the words of Karl Alexander, it is “women always have privileges.”

“This riot that has spread throughout Europe has greatly affected the living conditions of women, and women and children are increasingly being displaced and subjected to abuse. This terrible scene has been going on for a whole year. Do you know what this means?”

Karl Alexander and Liszt and Wagner looked at each other. It’s not that they really don’t eat meat, but that they know what this good friend will say next. It is nothing more than emphasizing that women have been inhumanely abused and are nothing more than women’s survival. Rights can’t bear to look directly at such topics.

It is clear to everyone including Karl Alexander, but being clear does not mean that it can be resolved or changed. In fact, neither Karl Alexander nor Liszt or Wagner has a single solution, it is really helpless.

Sure enough, Fanny Lewald is another long talk, but Carl Alexander really wants to roll his eyes because for this era, some of her remarks are too shocking, so that women can also enjoy the election and being elected. Power, how crazy it is to say such a thing!

Carl Alexander is still more traditional, so he really can’t agree with his good friends’ remarks, but he doesn’t want to make good friends sad or embarrassed, so he can only throw out another topic to interrupt:

“Speaking of this riot, dear Franz, what’s the situation in your hometown? I heard that there is a lot of chaos over there. Your family is not implicated, right?”

Speaking of Hungary, Liszt was suddenly overcast. Although he left his hometown very early, if you say that he has no feelings for Hungary at all, that would not be enough. What’s more, as a musician, passion is indispensable. Although most of his passion is invested in beauties or celebrities, even a little bit can ignite the passion for hometown.

“The situation is not very good, it is said that there are riots everywhere, and the price of goods is soaring, life is difficult, hey…”

In fact, Liszt really didn’t know the situation in Hungary, because he was not a saint who cared about the suffering of the people. What he saw in Hungary was more in newspapers and hearsay. Of course, Karl Alexander also didn’t care whether this good friend knew the real situation in Hungary, because he really only wanted to digress.

“This **** disaster!” Carl Alexander sighed pretentiously, “My friend, maybe you should write a new tune and condemn this disaster in the language of music!”

Well, it’s not that Liszt does not have this strength. With the strength of the king of piano, it is not particularly difficult to get such a piece of music. It’s just that the emotions expressed in this piece of music are not lacking in depression and condemnation, but more Most of them are dazzling skills. This is a completely dazzling madman, often more suitable for dazzling and romantic scenes.

You ask him to express things like national sufferings, that is really not suitable, not to mention that the symphony of that idea is also difficult to have such emotions. After all, it was the upper class who could appreciate the symphony back then. What do you tell them about the stinks of alcohol and meat? , I really mean to slap my face. It is not suitable anyway.

What’s more, Liszt’s current thoughts are actually on the woman, specifically the Princess Caroline Sine Wittgenstein, or the Duchess of Wittgenstein, who made him dream.

When he was touring in Tsarist Russia in 1847, Liszt, the dazzling romantic maniac, encountered something that shocked him. At that time, the Duchess of Wittgenstein bought a ticket to his concert for a thousand rubles. . This is an unprecedentedly high price~www.wuxiax.com~ Even the most black-hearted scalpers can’t do such a thing.

It was just that Liszt happened to meet him, and then he fell in love at first sight with the married Duchess who was eight years younger than him. Then again, it was another gorgeous elopement. The Duchess of Wiegenstein gave up everything for him, including property, title and nationality, as well as the full hatred of Nicholas I.

Anyway, Liszt still felt very sorry for this sister. His biggest wish was to get the Pope’s permission to marry Mrs. Wigenstein, but it was very difficult and there was almost no hope at all. Anyway, in history, Liszt waited until the seventies and eighties were not able to fulfill his wish, so he could only die with regret.

Liszt’s most energy now is focused on the friendliness of the Duchess of Wittgenstein and the Pope, and he really doesn’t care much about the Hungarian revolution or suffering.

But Liszt could not directly refuse the demands of good friends and protectors, and could only reluctantly replied: “I will do my best…”
