Life
Upon his return to the now Kingdom of Prussia in 1702, Ehrenfried Kornbluth got know King Friedrich I of Prussia through his father's connections. In 1705, the 30 year old Ehrenfried was named Prussia's ambassador to France since he learned how to speak French at the Diplomat College in Vienna.
