Er kämpfte als Freischarhauptmann einer Bauernschwadron gegen Napoleon und opferte dabei sein bisschen Vermögen fürs Vaterland. Doch statt eines Dankes schickte ihm der Kaiser den Steuerpfänder unters ramponierte Mühlendach. Soviel Undank lässt sich Florian natürlich nicht gefallen. Er jagt den Pfänder zum Teufel und macht sich auf nach Wien, wo der Kongress tanzt und tagt.
This story of the miller Florian, who gave all his money to the war against Napoleon, is loosely based on a true story. After the war, Florian's reimbursement is challenged, and he must also pay taxes on his destroyed mill. He resists the tax collectors and takes off to Vienna, where he intends to defend his rights. On the way, he rescues the Duchess of Guastalla from assault. She also wants to go to Vienna, as His Majesty Franz II is trying to contest an heir in her favor. With cunning, luck, and dagger, Florian fights his way through a slew of nobility and their secret police.
