Eagle’s Glory

"Okay, then let's be honest, I know what you want to do."

Hearing His Royal Highness say this, Edgar's expression did not change, and he still looked at each other with a smile.

"You know? Then you are too powerful. After all, I don't even know what I want to do..."

"Don't play this game with me, Edgar." Charlie interrupted Edgar impatiently, then frowned and looked at him, "You are obviously greedy for life and fear of death, but you don't want to endure hardship, but you follow Your Majesty. Run over, and deliberately let Miss Agnes get close to His Majesty. Others may not be able to see what they are trying to do. Do you still want to hide from me? Honestly admit it to me, are your Treville family taking advantage of Agnes? Miss Si's idea to please His Majesty?"

When Charlie directly broke through his thoughts, Edgar felt a little flustered, but after all, he has been exercising in the social field for so many years, and he has already learned how to control his emotions, so he was just stunned for a moment, then Smiling again.

"It's too much for you to say that... You can insult me, after all, I am a servant of the Bonaparte family, and I should bear it; but Agnes is different, she is not a servant, but a friend of His Majesty, if you If these words fall into His Majesty's ears, I am afraid it will make His Majesty angry."

Seeing Edgar's indecisive appearance, Charlie was speechless all of a sudden. He knew that he couldn't scare Edgar, and as Edgar, he absolutely couldn't be rough or coerce him to do anything. So after hesitating for a moment, he slowed down his tone and looked at each other with very friendly eyes.

"Don't get me wrong, Edgar...I'm your friend, and I'm very supportive of your ideas, at least in this matter, and I think that if Miss Agnes and His Majesty have, um, a close relationship, then Definitely a great thing."

Seeing Charlie speak his mind, Edgar was instantly delighted.

The task that his father gave him was originally to consolidate the relationship with the Bonaparte family. If he had His Royal Highness as an ally, wouldn't it be more effective?

However, although he was happy in his heart, he still pretended to be reserved on the surface, "Hey... don't mention this, to tell you the truth, before I came, my wife and I were very happy to see His Majesty and Agnie. Silk came together, after all, they are a perfect match; but after coming here, my heart is directly cold-because I found out that Her Royal Highness Princess Teresa has come, and she is the fiancee recognized by Her Majesty! It's a pity, so I had to leave this delusional idea behind, hey, forget it, it's probably a trick of fate..."

"What if there is His Highness Theresa? Who stipulates that His Majesty can only like her alone?" Charlie replied disapprovingly.

"You seem to have a problem with Her Royal Highness Theresa?" Edgar asked cautiously.

"I have no personal opinion on His Royal Highness Theresa, but no one can forget that she is an Austrian - how long did the late emperor regret marrying an Austrian woman?" Charlie replied solemnly, "Think about the empire back then. How many times have we fought with Austria and finally been betrayed by the Austrians, can we easily forget these grievances? Also, now His Majesty has repeatedly asked us to serve her as mother and obey her orders, but Teresa We only trust those who bring us here, and they never lie to us, just a joke! Are we working hard for His Majesty, and in the end we are working for the Austrians? Isn't this a big absurdity?"

Charlie said it was full of righteous indignation, but of course he never cared about "historical hatred" in his heart. In his eyes, the past was just a passing glimpse, and what he really hated was that Teresa had humiliated him; Come over and exclude him from the inner circle.

Of course, on the bright side, he can only use this as a reason.

Now he has nothing to do with Teresa. On the one hand, Teresa has the handle on him, making it difficult for him to move; on the other hand, His Majesty does obey Teresa, and he has no way to interfere with it.

Then on the other hand, as long as His Majesty loves something else, it will cause a rift between the two of them. At that time, he can find another backing, and he no longer has to be afraid of Teresa's restraint. Intercede yourself.

Of course, this kind of idea is good, but it is not so easy to realize, because it is too difficult to meet a woman who can make His Majesty look away from His Royal Highness Theresa, and the arrival of Miss Agnes, let him see to hope.

According to his idea, if this idea is really successful, then as long as the time comes to win over the Treville family, and then curry favor with Miss Agnes, and play the banner of "exclusion of Austrians", those who are willing to stand on their side will definitely Not a lot.

After saying these words impassively, he looked at Edgar with burning eyes, waiting for his reply.

Of course, Edgar couldn't believe all of His Royal Highness's words, but from His Highness's excited and resentful tone, he could see that the other party was indeed quite dissatisfied with Teresa, and was very happy to see his plan come true.

That's enough...

"If you say that, actually... Actually, I have a similar idea." He suppressed his snicker, and then replied in a tone of lamentation and worry, "We can't let the mistakes of the past be repeated, it is better to have Let him love France a little more... The influence of the Austrians on His Majesty is too deep, this is not good, the French people will not like it, as His Majesty's loyal servants, we should think of a way to do this."

After saying this, the two of them knew that it was time to stop, they looked at each other, and then both showed tacit smiles to each other.

Of course, Teresa, who stayed in Methoni, did not know that at this moment, a small group against her was quietly formed. Her current schedule was already overwhelmed by the heavy work left by Aegron.

Managing the rear, coordinating contacts with Greek allies, contacting her parents to request assistance, sheltering volunteers who came to Aeglon... There are so many things, each of which is a hassle, but she can only be alone Come to bear, Aegron only left for a short time, and she felt a little tired physically and mentally.

In addition, in order not to embarrass her parents, she also deliberately prevented herself from being too ostentatious, and rarely appeared in crowded occasions, which invisibly made her work even more difficult.

However, for the sake of herself and Aegron's future, she still insisted on gritting her teeth and would never let herself show her fatigue, because she knew that if she couldn't even hold on to this matter, it would not only live up to His Highness's expectations, but also Make those oaths of your own ridiculous.

After finishing today's paperwork, Teresa rubbed her dry eyes and left her room. Under the guidance of Chanel, she came to Father Faria's room.

After Aigron left, he left Father Faria to Teresa as a special advisor.

On the one hand, the priest is paralyzed, and it is inconvenient to follow him to fight; on the other hand, even though Teresa is talented and intelligent, she is young and inexperienced, so she needs to leave an old man to help. From this aspect, Faria, who has no selfishness Father, is the best adviser.

After a short contact, Teresa was immediately impressed by this knowledgeable and witty old priest. Every time she had free time, she would take time to chat with the priest. On the one hand, she could ask for advice. On the one hand, it can also relieve stress.

From Chanel, she also heard about the tragic experience of the priest and his adopted son Edmund Dantes. While sympathizing with her, she couldn't help but feel a little bit about the mystery of fate - the priest was arrested by Napoleon's subordinates. The Count of Monte Cristo was thrown into prison for supporting Napoleon. The two poor people were imprisoned for opposite reasons, but they had to hug together in prison to keep warm, and finally survived.

In any case, what happened before has already passed by, and now this adopted father and adopted son are already Aigron's loyal subordinates and his right-hand man.

While Teresa was contemplating, Father Faria, who was half lying on the bed, was also looking at Teresa carefully.

"Your Royal Highness, you'd better take a proper rest." He smiled kindly and said to Teresa gently, "I can see that you are under enormous pressure now and are very tired."

"It's true, but I don't have as much pressure as Aegron, so I can bear it." Teresa shook her head stubbornly.

Then she smiled happily again, "Fortunately, God bless, Aigron is progressing smoothly, and our hard work is worth the money..."

"Victory in the first battle is indeed worth celebrating, but this is just the beginning, and there are bound to be bigger tests to come." Father Faria replied softly, "His Majesty was able to come to the enemy's weak spot by surprise, but then he will definitely In the face of the enemy's counterattack - and this time, I think he has stood in the clear, the Turks know that he is coming, and they will be more careful."

Teresa knew in her heart that what the priest said was right, and she was most worried about it here.

But what's the point of worrying? This is all she has to face.

"His Royal Highness will handle these issues by himself. If we want to get him, we also want to get it. We just need to do our part." She replied calmly, "If God bless us, we will naturally be all right; if fate makes fun of it. We, at least we will accept that result together."

Next, she changed the topic again, "His Royal Highness caught some prisoners this time, he couldn't deal with them on the front line, so he sent them all over. He said that these people are all handled by me, what do you think I should do with them? ?"

"Are you worried that you won't be able to manage them well?" Father Faria asked rhetorically. "Then why not give them all to the Greeks?"

"If you hand them all over to the Greeks, I'm afraid they will have nothing to do." Teresa replied in a low voice, "Although I know that since it is a war, something similar will inevitably happen, but if you let me personally If they are all sent to death, I feel a little bit sorry... So I thought, is there any way to restore it a little bit."

Father Faria paused and gave Teresa a sneaking glance.

If it was His Majesty, or His Royal Highnesses Louis and Charles, they would not have any concerns in this regard.

No matter how wise and decisive Her Highness Teresa is, she is still a girl after all... But this is a good thing.

"Among those soldiers, in the name of selecting instructors, you can pick out some of them and let them train the volunteers who have defected to the battlefield—after all, these people have been on the battlefield and have certain experience. As for the others, let them They should do labor, and they need manpower to carry the supplies." After a moment of silence, the priest gave his advice, "However, we must break them up and prevent them from contacting each other."

After a pause, he added, "As for the officers among them, you can just hand them over to the Greeks, and they will handle it. Soldiers will be grateful as long as they survive. Officers are not so easily satisfied. Send kindness within a limited range, but never let your kindness become a source of danger, even a 1% risk is intolerable for you now."

Teresa listened quietly, then nodded slightly.

"Okay, I understand, I'll do as you say."

There is no doubt that this also means that she will personally send some people to death, but this is also a lesson she must learn, and she knows that she should shoulder this responsibility.

At least she was comforted.

"His Royal Highness, since you are here, you have set yourself on a different path from other princesses. I think you will have come to your senses before." Seeing Teresa's expression, the priest gently reminded She, "It's really not good for a child like you to go through this at such a young age, but fortunately, I know that you are strong-willed, and I believe that after going through all this, you can still maintain your own heart, not Radically deny the previous self.

Kindness is indeed a luxury, and you can spill as much as you have. Although you can't be generous now, if one day you can become the queen of the empire, I hope and believe that you will be a blessing to the entire country. "

The priest's comfort relieved Teresa of the burden in her heart.

"Thank you for your comfort, Father." She smiled and thanked the priest, "With a wise elder like you by my side, I do feel a lot more at ease... I sincerely hope that you will always be healthy and stay with me. and His Royal Highness's side to help us solve our problems."

"I can only do my best, after all, who can guess God's will?" The priest laughed freely, "However, as long as I am alive for a day, I will dedicate my everything to Your Majesty and you, In return for your respect and trust."

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"Your Highness, it's me." Chanel's voice came from outside the door.

"Come in." Teresa called Chanel in, and then asked again, "Is something wrong?"

"Your mother's reply has arrived." Chanel replied respectfully. "There are also some messengers who claim to have been entrusted by your father to serve you..."
