Eagle’s Glory

"Miss Agnes, it's a pleasure to meet you. It's a pity that I only learned about your deeds today, but it doesn't detract from my admiration for you."

These were the first words Teresa said to Agnes.

Her expression is humble and her tone is very polite, enough to show a kind and friendly attitude.

"His Royal Highness... You are too polite, I can't bear it." Agnes smiled a little embarrassedly, "It is also my honor to be able to meet you."

After speaking, her eyes flickered, awkwardly not knowing what to say.

Although she was born in a duke family and has been in and out of the court since she was a child, she has no experience in dealing with princesses and princes, and she has no experience in flattering others, so she does not know how to deal with the kindness of Her Royal Highness Theresa.

But out of instinct, she knew that since Teresa was the young man's fiancee, she would be the mistress to whom her sister and brother-in-law would submit in the future. If she was lucky, she might even become the queen of France, so she did not dare to make Second, I don't want to leave a bad impression on the other party's heart and implicate my innocent sister.

In the depths of her heart, she was also a little curious, what kind of character is Her Royal Highness Teresa, who can still follow the young man without abandoning after such a tragic blow?

"Please don't be restrained, you can speak freely with us." Teresa saw Agnes' embarrassment, so she continued to greet her with a smile. "And, I think we can be friends."

After she finished speaking, she nodded to Agron, then stood up, and walked in front of Agnes on her own initiative, and Agnes also stood up subconsciously due to etiquette.

So, the two looked at each other face to face, looking at each other with the help of candlelight.

The two girls are very beautiful, but they have their own auras - one is dressed up, with both the charm of a girl and the dignity of a princess;

It's so beautiful... even if they sighed each other in their hearts at the same time.

"Miss Agnes, are you willing to be my friend?" Teresa put down her thoughts and asked the other person kindly.

Then, she stretched out her silk-gloved hand, "There are too few girls here, although I can understand the reason and can bear it, but being able to meet a woman of the same age is always relaxing. Little, especially...she's still so good and admirable! Thank God I was able to meet people like this, you don't have to worry about me being difficult to get along with, they all know that I'm by no means a picky or harsh person …”

Teresa's words were not entirely deliberate compliments. Although she had only heard a little bit about Agnes' experience, it was enough to make her think highly of Agnes in her heart.

She is a person who likes legends and extraordinary, so she will inevitably have respect for a young girl like Agnes who stands out among her peers.

As for a little bit of vigilance because of Aegron, that's another story, she can control herself.

Agnes was still a little sluggish, and being treated like this by Princess Teresa made her a little overwhelmed, which was beyond the scope of her interpersonal experience.

Fortunately, at this time, she saw her brother-in-law's look from the corner of her eyes, and she immediately woke up.

"Of course!" She nodded hurriedly, then reached out her hand and carefully held Her Royal Highness Teresa's hand. "His Royal Highness, thank you for giving me such an honor, I am very happy to be your friend."

So, under everyone's attention, the two girls held hands.

Humans' instinctive appreciation of beauty made them all applaud, and even Aigron couldn't help but applaud softly.

After shaking for a while, Teresa withdrew her hand and smiled at Agnes.

"Have you fought people a lot?" she asked in a low voice.

"Well...it's not too much, especially since it's been rare recently. After all, no one challenges me anymore." Agnes replied leisurely, and then added proudly, "Besides, since I started my apprenticeship, I haven't Oh lost."

"It's amazing!" Teresa praised sincerely, and then smiled embarrassedly, "To tell you the truth, since I met Aegron, every time he played against someone made me a little sad. My father, once to his teacher, so I am instinctively afraid of swords! However, I am looking forward to seeing your performance, it will be a grand and gorgeous performance."

"If you're interested, I'll ask you to watch next time I compete with someone." Agnes didn't mind, "but I think everyone is free now."

"It doesn't matter, let's just wait for the future, I believe there will be opportunities soon." Teresa nodded firmly, and then she asked again, "Does your father know that you are here?"

"Of course he doesn't know now, after all, he is politically against the Bonaparte family, so we can only hide it from him." Agnes snickered, "But he should already know by now, but then again How is it? He can't send someone to arrest me, and he can't publicize it, so he has to acquiesce! Of course, when I return to China, he will definitely scold me, but that is the future. Well, let's talk about it later~"

Teresa couldn't help laughing along.

After laughing, she felt a little more - they both seemed to be deeply doted on by their father, and they made the father furious with this wayward behavior.

Agnes may be forgiven easily, but she wonders if she can make up for the rift with her father?

"Although we have to do things of last resort for various reasons, my father is a father after all, and we must make up for him in the future." She was moved.

"Yeah, you're right." Agnes nodded, and then the corners of her mouth twitched, "I'll apologize to my father when I go back, and if my father wants to beat me, then I'll just stand there and let him beat me. - Make him the first and only person who can hit me so hard that I can't fight back..."

"Hahaha..." Although she was a little sad, Teresa was still amused.

Next, she raised her skirt and saluted.

"Okay, let's talk about it first, we can't delay other people's time."

"Well, Your Highness!" Agnes also hurriedly saluted.

In the short contact, she had a very good impression of Princess Teresa - as Her Royal Highness said, although she was born in the ancient Habsburg family, she was indeed a person who didn't put on airs, and she was not because of her blood. And no one in sight.

She felt that this would also make her life better in the future - after all, she would definitely have many opportunities to contact Princess Teresa in the future.

Under everyone's attention, the two girls took their seats again, and the focus of their eyes also fell on the young man again.

Aegron was in a very happy mood - after all, who wouldn't be happy after watching the scene just now?

The glass of wine he just drank made his chest and abdomen a little hot, but it also gave him surging passion.

He looked up at the starry sky, and then stood up leisurely.

"This starry sky is so beautiful..." He sighed sincerely, "What's even more beautiful is that I can enjoy it freely. Thinking back to a year ago, I feel like a lifetime away... Yes, the world is completely different. A year ago I was alone and cynical in the palace; a year later I am calling my supporters to fight for me. By fate, I am here, and I have yours Help, fate has called us all together, let us meet for the same goal, and also work hard for the same cause!"

Then, he picked up the wine glass dashingly, and then looked at the people present, "Everyone, I am not an omnipotent genius, nor a sage who has no last resort, I know more about how many difficulties and obstacles there are in the road ahead. ...but I believe that things are man-made. There have been too many miracles in this era, and even my birth was originally a miracle... A genius went from nothing to a powerful empire in a few years, and then defeated a A strong enemy, and then married a princess of an ancient royal family and gave birth to his own heir. Isn't this the miraculous experience we just witnessed? I was a part of the miracle, and I will continue this miracle with you. , this is the mission that God has given me, and it is my obligation - listen to my orders, for the empire, for the victory! We have nothing else, and we don't need anything else!"

"Long live!" As soon as he finished speaking, the people present responded with cheers.

Then, everyone picked up the glass, paid tribute to Aegron, and drank it.

Although Agnes was a little hesitant, due to the atmosphere at this time, she did as the others did—presumably, she would get used to it more and more in the future.

After giving the toast, Aigron looked at Edgar. "Edgar, you are an excellent painter, so I want to ask you, can you paint tonight's scene so that I can keep it forever?"

"Of course I will carry out your order." Of course Edgar said nothing, and immediately agreed. "I will try to make it the proudest work of my life, Your Majesty."

"Well, that's good." Agron nodded, then thought about it, and then made his own suggestion, "By the way, let's use the moment when Teresa and Agnes shook hands just now for the composition of the picture, let them Being at the center of the painting, I think that's the display of beauty..."

"Okay, Your Majesty! I'll draw as you wish." As long as it was Aigron's request, of course Edgar would not question or object, and agreed immediately.

"Then I'll wait for you to present your work." Aegron nodded with great satisfaction, "I'm sure you will never let me down."

"Mr. Treville." At this time, Teresa also interjected, "I heard Agron say, you are a very good painter, aren't you?"

"It's not excellent, but I have indeed studied painting for many years, Your Highness," Edgar replied respectfully. "When I was in Paris, I painted for a lot of people and generally got good reviews."

"Then when you accompany you in the future, you need to polish the glorious image of His Highness." Theresa looked at him expectantly, "I look forward to your next works."

"That's what I want to do too." Edgar nodded with a smile, "I'll show all the French people the glorious image of His Majesty, and then they'll make a comparison, what a vibrant conquest. Stronger, or more powerful than an old, decaying and decaying king? They can easily come up with that answer."

"Yeah, people will make wise judgments." Teresa agreed.

Then, she emphatically encouraged Edgar, "The Treville family is not only a famous family, but also the leader of those who support Bonaparte in France. Your father is widely respected, and Aiglon also needs his help very much... I ask you Next, serve His Highness well, and I promise you, if there is no accident, if we come to Paris, your family will be one of the most respected courtiers in our court, and Aigron and I will never forget the contributions of others. "

Compared to Agnes's cordial and friendly attitude, Teresa maintained a polite and cold respect for Edgar.

It's not that Edgar's performance is not good, or his appearance and behavior are not good enough, but because of the frivolous boyish demeanor he shows, Teresa does not like it-the one who often came into contact with the court and the social world. She has long been fed up with this kind of phony but mediocre thinking.

But even so, some respect must be shown.

From her point of view, although Agnes and Edgar have a big gap in family fame and status, they are both noble families in terms of pedigrees - and it is precisely for this reason that Duke Nordrien is in her daughter Alice. With all his perseverance, he pinched his nose and agreed to the marriage of the two.

Although she boarded Aegron's pirate ship, as a member of the Habsburg royal family, she also instinctively valued the prestige and role of the noble society - so the Treville family also received her attention.

In her opinion, Aigron's reign in France will not be a **** slaughter of a great revolution, but will continue Napoleon's established line, both implementing an enlightened policy and reconciling with the aristocracy, and the Treville family will undoubtedly be a very good bridge .

In order to achieve this goal, she also does not mind giving the Treville family a detached status in the future court.

Of course, if she can see the filthy thoughts hidden in Edgar's heart, I am afraid she will definitely not have such an attitude...

"I heard your child is coming?" she asked Edgar again.

"Yes." Edgar nodded, and then added, "When His Majesty was chatting with my wife, he gave this child a name. If it's a man, it's called Ciel, and if it's a woman, it's called Ciel. Xia Lu."

"Then let's toast this child together." Teresa picked up the glass, "I will prepare a precious gift for this child... May God bless this child!"

"May God bless!" There was another burst of laughter, and the clinking of glasses one after another.

In this way, in this lively and harmonious banquet, Edgar and Agnes became members of the Aegron group, and the Treville family was revealed to the young man in a timely manner.

This is exactly what Alice, who is thousands of miles away, prayed and hoped for.
