Chapitre 115: Chapter 2, Let the Russians In

```

Franz's breakfast was very simple, consisting of bread, jam, milk, as well as some fruits and vegetables, similar to the standard of the middle class.

However, where coffee would be, there was instead milk. Perhaps influenced by his past life, Franz had no love for coffee and even preferred dark bread.

The dark bread in the palace, naturally, differed from the hodgepodge found outside. At Franz's request, seeds, sesame, and walnut kernels were added to it...

Today, with the addition of another person, the kitchen had prepared a somewhat more lavish spread, including coffee, sandwiches, butter, pastries, and ham.

Everyone had different tastes, so breakfast was chosen according to individual preference. The relationship between European monarchs and their subjects was unlike that in the East; people were informal during meals without the need for excessive caution.

After breakfast, everyone had their schedules to adhere to, and scattered to commence their day's work.
