Why did Rudolf, the only son of the Crown Prince Cece of Austria-Hungary, commit suicide with his mistress?

Rudolph is the only son of the Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary, Princess Sisi and Emperor Flantz. He was the heir with high hopes from his parents, but he committed suicide after marriage.

The only son is gone, and the hope of the empire is dashed. Emperor Flantz was in tears, and Princess Sisi shook her head and sighed.

"Son, my only son, why did you leave your parents?"

Princess Cece is very confused. She is floating on the sea alone, and she is eager to reunite with her son as soon as possible.

Rudolph and his mistress, Mary Vesela, shot themselves in Mellin, so people speculated that the crown prince was trapped by love and went on the road of no return.

Is the truth really that simple? Is there something hidden in this?

Rudolph's mother, Princess Cece, is regarded as the most beautiful woman in Europe. She exudes charming charm, and any man will be attracted to her, including her husband Flantz.

Sophie fell in love with Cece's sister Princess Helen for the first time. She thinks that Princess Helen is quiet and steady, and she is the perfect candidate for the Empress of Austria-Hungary.

But what Sophie never expected was that Flantz, who had always been obedient to her son, would oppose her and insist on marrying Princess Cece, otherwise she would never get married.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a good son to be a mother. Sophie reluctantly accepted Princess Sissi, and her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law began a feud for decades.

Princess Cece is like her father, Duke Max. She is free and loose, doesn't like reading, and hates the bondage of moral codes.

Flantz is the emperor of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and his mother Sophia is Sisi's menstrual period, which means that Flantz and Sisi are cousins.

Princess Cece is like her father, Duke Max. She is free and loose, doesn't like reading, and hates the bondage of moral codes.

Sophie is not satisfied with this daughter-in-law. She thinks that Princess Cece is too grumpy and accuses Princess Cece of having too yellow teeth. In short, this is not good, that is not right, and nothing is right.

Princess Cece also has a lot of resentment against her mother-in-law Sophie. She used to be a lively and cheerful girl, but after she entered the palace, she was like a caged bird, and she was uncomfortable and unhappy every day.

Flantz loves Princess Cece very much, but she is a standard mother-in-law. She can do anything except get married and oppose her mother.

After Sissi got married, she gave birth to two daughters in succession, which made Sophie even more dissatisfied. The aristocrats of the Austro-Hungarian Empire also looked down on her and always secretly joked about the young queen.

Sophie thinks that Princess Cece is too young and ignorant to be a mother. She sent someone to take the two little princesses away from their mother by force.

The flesh and blood born in October can't support themselves. Princess Cece was very angry. She struggled desperately, but to no avail, and her husband, the man who insisted on marrying her, chose silence.

Her mother-in-law's rough treatment and her husband's weakness broke her heart. She hates everything about Austria. She can't wait to grow wings and fly over the high palace wall to find a free sky.

1858, Princess Sisi finally gave birth to her son Rudolph. She thought that she had completed the mission of carrying on the family line and could raise her children by herself.

However, Sophie said that Princess Sisi's eldest daughter died. She accused that if Sisi didn't go her own way and had to take her two daughters to Hungary, her eldest granddaughter would never die of illness and her son Rudolph could not be raised by her.

Poor princess cece once again lost the right to raise children. She was completely disappointed with her marriage, stayed in Hungary for many years and refused to come back, and rarely performed the duties of the queen.

Rudolph was separated from his mother since he was a child, and he received a strict and harsh royal education, which made him sensitive and fragile.

Flantz is very strict with his only son, and he hopes that he can become a pillar of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

A qualified king must have a good relationship with the army. Flantz decided to let Rudolph learn military knowledge and receive military training.

Rudolph hates strict military training. He is very ill. He can't stand taking a cold bath in winter, practicing shooting in the middle of the night, and can't open an umbrella in rainy days.

As the days passed, Rudolph became more and more melancholy. His eyes seem to be covered with fog, and he is always in a daze.

Princess Sissi loves her son dearly, but she knows that she must have political capital to regain custody.

Princess Sisi, who had never cared about politics before, began to reconcile the contradiction between Austria and Hungary. After unremitting efforts, the Austro-Hungarian Empire reconciled and Princess Sisi became the queen of Hungary.

With political capital, Princess Cece showed her cards to Flantz, and she had to get back the custody of her children, otherwise she would never get back to Austria.

This time, Flantz finally stood on his wife's side, and Princess Cece got custody of the children.

Rudolph finally returned to his mother, but the long-term separation made the mother and son very strange.

Princess Cece loves Rudolph very much, but she doesn't know what her son needs or his inner world.

Rudolph is extremely insecure. He longed for his mother's love, but she seemed to give all her love to her newborn daughter.

Tired of life, Rudolph began to fall in love. He showed mercy everywhere, and his mistress changed crop after crop. ...

All the streets are talking about the affair of the Crown Prince. Flantz flew into a rage when he found out, severely reprimanded his son and urged him to get married at once.

Rudolph doesn't want to get married at all. Although he was not prepared to be a husband, he chose Princess Stephanie, the daughter of Belgian King Leopold II.

Flantz was very happy. He thinks his son has grown up, but Princess Cece is very unhappy. She hates Princess Stephanie and thinks she is too ugly for her handsome son.

Flantz and Cece are arguing. ...

On the other hand, Rudolph remained unmoved. He married only for the benefit of Austria-Hungary. It makes no difference whether the bride is beautiful or ugly. He doesn't love this woman anyway.

Finally, Flantz took the lead, and Rudolph married Princess Stephanie.

Rudolph finished the wedding like a procedure. He left his 17-year-old bride to find his gentle hometown.

Princess Stephanie was dumbfounded. She didn't expect such a result.

Princess Cece hates Stephanie very much. She hates her daughter-in-law's ugliness and clumsiness. She is simply a hillbilly.

Princess Stephanie lives carefully every day, but Princess Cece is still critical of her, and her language is as mean as her mother-in-law Sophie.

Sometimes, even Flantz can't stand Princess Cece's attitude and quietly asks his wife for mercy.

As a mother-in-law, Princess Sisi seems to have forgotten the sufferings she suffered in those years. As always, she satirized Stephanie, as if to put all her past sufferings on her daughter-in-law.

Rudolph never liked Stephanie. He turned a deaf ear to his mother's attitude and didn't care.

Princess Stephanie is in a difficult situation in the palace. She didn't understand where she was wrong. Why don't her husband and mother-in-law like her?

"If I give birth to an heir to the throne, my husband will change his mind and my mother-in-law will like me!"

Stephanie pinned her hopes on her stomach. Maybe God heard her voice and Stephanie was really pregnant.

Flantz and Princess Cece wanted Stephanie to have a son, but she got pregnant in 10 and gave birth to a daughter, Elizabeth Mary.

The girl's arrival didn't bring any joy. Flantz and Rudolph were disappointed. Princess Cece hates Stephanie more than ever.

The lost Stephanie longed for her husband's tenderness, but Rudolph had long forgotten her, went out all day and got sexually transmitted diseases.

Stephanie also contracted sexually transmitted diseases during her husband's accidental fortune, and she lost her fertility.

After his illness, Rudolph gave up on himself even more. He made friends with different types of women and overdrawn his life crazily.

Apart from his own reasons, it is very important that Rudolph has different political views from his father Flantz.

Rudolph was deeply influenced by liberalism and advocated harmony. He doesn't even want to be an emperor, he just wants to be the president of the Hungarian Empire.

Flantz was very angry at Rudolph's idea. He rebuked his son for not caring about the interests of Austria-Hungary, forbade him to ask about politics, and even forbade him to express his opinions in public.

Since you can't express your views publicly, write an article anonymously and express your political opinions.

Rudolph wrote many articles criticizing the current situation. He pointedly pointed out that the conservative politics of Emperor Flantz would destroy the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Flantz doesn't know who the author is. If he knew it was his own son, he would be half dead with anger.

The contradiction between Rudolph, who pursues freedom, and Flantz, who is conservative, is getting worse. Father and son, who are not close to each other, quarrel like Mars hitting the earth, getting worse every time.

The war between Princess Cece and her father is helpless. Once again, she chose to travel as an escape, leaving the Austrian palace for a long time and her son.

Princess Cece's escape behavior directly led to Rudolph's tragedy. He felt that when he needed his mother most, she always turned around and left, regardless.

Rudolph not only did nothing in politics, but also his marriage became red.

Since Stephanie was infected with sexually transmitted diseases by her husband, their relationship has dropped to freezing point, and they are almost strangers.

Rudolph doesn't want to live this miserable marriage any longer. He asked his father and the Pope to divorce Stephanie.

If Flantz and the Pope had agreed to Rudolf's request, or the tragedy behind it would not have happened, they did not consider the feelings of both sides. They rejected Rudolph's request on the grounds of defending the dignity of the royal family.

Rudolph was completely desperate for life, frustrated politically and unable to make a decision on marriage. His father is always lecturing him, but his mother keeps him at a distance.

"What's the point of people living!"

1889 At the beginning of this year, Rudolph and his mistress, Mary Vesela, committed suicide in Merlyn. He killed Mary first and then committed suicide.

Does Rudolph love Mary Vessela? I guess he doesn't know. He just wants to find someone who wants to die with him.

Rudolph's death grieved Genvren and Sethi. They blamed their daughter-in-law Princess Stephanie, but did not review their mistakes.

In order to get back at Stephanie, Princess Cece, like her mother-in-law, took her daughter-in-law, Princesse Marie, and kept speaking ill of her mother in front of her granddaughter.

Under the influence of Cece, Princesse Marie hated her mother since she was a child, and never made peace with Stephanie all her life. ...

After her son died, Princess Cece wandered around in mourning all day, hoping that she could be buried in the ocean.

The lonely princess Cece refused to take a guard when she went out. 1898, she was stabbed to death by anarchists in Geneva, Switzerland.

The 60-year-old princess Cece collapsed with satisfaction, and she can be reunited with her son. I hope mother and son can talk in heaven. ...

Flantz announced that Rudolph shot himself because of insanity, because Catholicism does not allow Christians to commit suicide.

Rudolph lay quietly in the royal cemetery. He doesn't like this place, but he still has no choice.

You can't live as you wish, and you can't die as you wish, Rudolph, a poor and helpless crown prince.
