简要：The background is Vienna before the outbreak of the war in 1914. The aristocratic and somewhat tired Prince Nicky began flirting with Mizzie after the pursuit of all the ladies. Mickey is a disabled harpist who works in a suburban wine garden, while Shani is a rude and jealous butcher. Their first encounter took place in front of St. Stephen's Cathedral in Corpus Christie, where Nicky was a member of the Emperor's cavalry regiment. Later, in the refracted light of apple blossoms falling in the wine garden - a scene of distilled, ethereal beauty - Nikki gradually gained her faith and love. At the same time, in the luxurious and corrupt environment of the family palace, Nicky became involved in the conspiracy against his own will because his unscrupulous mother told him that in order to revive the family's wealth, he must marry the daughter of a wealthy civilian, Cecelia. Mizzie saw "Iron Man," a symbol of the decline of power and status in the Habsburg dynasty, and fell in fear before the cross; However, her love remained steadfast, and despite the abuse of her mother and Shani, she still adhered to her beliefs. Shani was angered by her refusal and threatened to kill Nikki on his wedding day unless Mickey agreed to marry him. After the grand parade at the cathedral wedding, Shani seemed to have implemented his threat, but Mizzi arrived in time to stop him; As Nikki drove away with her bride in the pouring rain, she gazed sadly at the true love in the crowd.
