Chapter 2350
Vienna was the base of the Habsburg family. They ruled the Holy Roman Empire and the Austria Hungary empire for more than 800 years based on Vienna. It can be said that the Habsburg family created the city of Vienna.
Vienna is a very beautiful city. It has many magnificent ancient buildings, which record the story of the Habsburg dynasty. The summer palace, the beautiful spring palace and the winter palace, the Hoffman Palace are among the most famous and symbolic buildings. Not far from the Hoffman palace, the kapuzinnerkirche in the old city of Vienna is quite inconspicuous.
Built in 1617 with only two floors and covering an area of 500 square meters, this small spire building has a special significance for the Habsburg family, because it is their main ancestral tomb.
There are 146 coffins of Habsburg family, including 12 emperors and 19 queens, in the underground of the mission church of Gabriel.
After the death of European nobles, they didn't like the large-scale earth sealed tombs in ancient China, but put them in coffins and put them in special tombs. Of course, the remains will also be treated with special anti-corrosion treatment. It is said that the viscera will be removed for further preservation. No discussion here.
All coffins are made of zinc and copper. The emperor's coffins have different shapes, excellent workmanship, exquisite carvings and full of artistic sense. The gaps in the coffins are sealed by bronze pouring, and the daily maintenance is proper. Therefore, for hundreds of years, when people enter the royal tomb, they don't hear any peculiar smell.
People are full of respect for the dead, as well as feelings for the glorious Royal History of the past, walking in the meantime, will not give people a sense of horror and terror.
Here lies the coffin of the sixth ancestor of Koko, his Majesty the emperor of Austria Hungary, Franz Joseph I and his Empress, Princess CICI. There are five ancestors, dead Prince Rudolph also here.
The latest coffin placed here is Otto von Habsburg Lorraine, the eldest Duke who just died the year before last. He is the last crown prince of the Austro Hungarian Empire and the patriarch of the Habsburg family. Naturally, he is qualified.
After the murder of Princess CICI in Geneva, Emperor Franz Joseph I cut off her hair and put it into his arms. He murmured to the people around him, "you will never know how much I love this woman!"!
Eighteen years later, the loving couple finally got together peacefully in a tomb. There were three coffins in the separate chamber, Franz Joseph I in the middle, Queen Elizabeth on the right and their son, crown prince Rudolph on the left.
According to the tradition, a churchyard has been guarded, guarded and managed by nuns sent by Gabriel for hundreds of years. After the Austro Hungarian Empire, the Austrian government was responsible for this. The Habsburg family did not care much, but came to worship and mourn regularly.
But Zhuoyang came with Koko this time, not simply to pay tribute to his ancestors, but to hold a grand ceremony for the Habsburg family.
The Cocos decided to bury their first grandmother, marquis grace Meredith, with Rudolph, the first crown prince.
Madame Meredith died in Vaduz, where his coffin had been kept in the church basement, and the coffins of his grandson Hubert, Grandpa Ludwig of Koko, count heslie and Princess Gladys were also buried there.
In the past, because of the sharp contradiction with the von family of Habsburg, the Joseph family was not regarded as a core member, so they naturally did not have the qualification to be buried in the cemetery of the Gabriel church. To tell you the truth, the Cocos were not rare at that time.
But now it's different. The Joseph family has become the main line of Habsburg. There is no more noble status in the family. In addition, the Joseph family mainly wanted to fulfill Mrs. Meredith's wish and give her a name.
Because of the birth of her grandson Hubert, Madame Meredith was conferred marquis by the imperial edict. She was the grandson's mother in identity, but from the perspective of the Habsburg royal family, she was only Rudolph's lover, and still one of them.
But Meredith deeply loves Rudolf is actually sincere, until died she also has not complained about the scum male crown prince. Life can't be in the same bed, but in the same cave after death. This must be Mrs. Meredith's biggest and last wish.
As for the irregularities, Frank Josef, the Austrian Archduke of Kopf, is the biggest in the Habsburg family. He is the rules themselves.
After consultation with the Austrian government and the friars of the mission church of Gabriel, it was finally agreed that a new tomb would be opened in the mission church of Gabriel to house the coffins of the dead crown prince Rudolph and Marquis Meredith, and that both of them should be buried in the same cave after their death.
As for whether crown prince Rudolph would like it or not, his opinion is not important, and what else does Madame Meredith have to do to leave him such a large group of offspring?
In this way, even though there is no official public identity, it is equal to the pursuit of a crown princess for Mrs. Meredith. Princess Stephanie of Belgium, the serious princess, was not buried in the Gabriel church after her death because of her broken relationship with Rudolph.
In fact, some of these rebellious actions can be understood and supported by all parties. The main reason is that the encounter of Mrs. Meredith has won the sympathy of all people. This must be attributed to Zhuoyang. It is his grand piano epic "grace Meredith" two years ago that successfully played up the life of Mrs. Meredith, which deeply moved the world.After the success of the performance the year before last, the Austrian and Vienna governments decided to build a small park in the place where Mrs. Meredith's family had been destroyed to celebrate her misfortune and legendary life.
Over the past two years, Meredith Memorial Park has been officially completed. The Vienna municipal government and the Habsburg family will also hold a grand ribbon cutting ceremony.
When he came out from the mission church of Gabriel, Zhuo Yang loosened his tie and wore such a suit on the dog days of July 3, which was not common to him.
"Koko, you will accompany me to bury in the tomb of the old Zhuo family when we die."
"Where is your ancestral tomb?"
"There is no ancestral tomb in our family. I'm not sure. And now there's cremation, and there's a little box at the end. "
Koko: "..."
"How about that? In the future, we will be packed in one box, regardless of you or me. "
"It's not bad," she said with a smile
Midair squinted at them. "Do you two always talk about such strange topics when you are together?"
"Honey, brother Zhuoyang always has some strange ideas in his mind. Don't pay attention to him or take them seriously," said kokome
Midair nodded: "yes, I remember brother Zhuoyang said that your ideal as a child was to be a peddler of ice cream and ice cream. It's weird, huh? "
Zhuoyang smiled happily: "yes, I didn't put my great dream into practice. It seems that I was degenerated. "
"Ah, by the way, you are a big girl now. Do you remember any dreams when you were a child?"
Midair quickly glanced at Zhuoyang with strange eyes, then lowered her head and smiled, without answering him.
