Eagle’s Glory

With the retreat of the siege army, the series of battles surrounding Nafpaktos also came to an end.

Aigron did not waste time, and immediately dispatched a large number of messengers to send his good news to all parties concerned, and through these messengers, his victory was also transmitted to the whole world at a flying speed.

Although in terms of the scale of the two warring parties, this battle is not a big deal, but its significance goes beyond the scale of the war. The victory is enough to boost the morale of the independent army; on the other hand, more importantly, this is the Bonaparte family once again appearing in front of the world in the form of a military group.

Only a dozen years after the fall of the empire, the new generation of the Bonaparte family is unwilling to stir up the storm, making the world restless again.

Although their leaders kept saying that they were just to support the independence of Greece, anyone with a little common sense would know where their ultimate goal was.

Faced with the same news, people will have different reactions - some people grit their teeth with hatred and just want to kill this restless young man with their own hands; some people ignore it and don't care what he wants to do at all; With anticipation in their hearts, they watched this vigorous and ambitious young man all over Europe, what miracles would he create?

In Methoni, far from the front lines, Teresa received the long-awaited good news.

Although she has absolute confidence in her fiancé, she can't help but feel anxious these days, and sometimes even wakes up in nightmares at night.

In order not to disturb Aegron's mind, she forcibly suppressed her uneasiness and quietly waited for the news, and all this pain and suffering was finally relieved at this time.

The moment she received the good news, she almost fainted in ecstasy.

In addition to the good news, Teresa also received a private letter from Agron.

She forcibly controlled her emotions, arranged many affairs at hand, and then returned to her room with this private letter.

At this time, her emotions were finally unable to hold back. She opened the envelope with trembling hands, and then picked up the letter that Aigron wrote to herself, and the letter was the most familiar note to her.

"Dearest Teresa:

You know, winning is always exciting, especially for someone like me whose ego has been suppressed for so long. After the victory, I couldn't wait to announce my accomplishments loudly to the world for those who once looked down on me to take a good look.

However, I most want to share my victory with you, because you are the most special person in my heart.

Many people took care of me when I was growing up, and I am grateful for them all, but you were the first person in the world who believed that I was bound to have outstanding achievements, and your affection for me was not just protection, but Follow and help... And you did follow me with your personal actions, no regrets, support me without reservation, and even go against everyone around you. I will always remember this sincere kindness. I just hate myself for not being able to. All back to you.

Every day I've been away from you has made me realize how precious it is to have you by my side, and I can't help but miss you, whether it's fighting or resting. Really, almost every moment I'm reminiscing about every day I spent with you and how it felt to kiss you, even when I slept I regret the lack of your hug... Really, writing now This letter, I can't wait to kiss you and **** baby!

It's just that the current situation is not enough for us to spend leisurely, we still have too many important things, so we can only continue to be separated for a while, but believe me, such days are not many, as long as we continue the present trend, and everyone will cheer for us next!

After this battle, there is an open space in front of us, the initiative has been in my hands, and my enemies can hardly organize to besiege me in a short time... That is to say, all the gates have been closed. Open to me, only to see how I choose.

Although I haven't thought of a specific plan yet, I'm going to march west to Methorongion. It's a fortress and an important stronghold. As long as I capture it, I'll capture a large piece of territory in the western part of Greece. , at least have a solid rear.

Of course, you don't need me to tell you that, that's where Byron died unpaid and hated - if all goes well, it won't be long before I take it down, and then I can rest in peace for a while, then When the time comes, we can meet, and then we can go to the place where Byron died and pay homage to the great poet.

And I'll hold you back then, kiss you all the time, make up for all the time God took from us, and the best time is waiting for us... so let's wait and look forward to it !

In addition, thank your father for me, I dare not write to him myself, because I am afraid that my handwriting will only anger him, so I can only ask you to convey it - but I have respect and gratitude to him in my heart But there will never be any impurities.

Please tell him that he is not only a great commander, but also a great father. Only the best father can raise a daughter like you, who has gathered the best qualities in the world, such as beauty, kindness, wisdom, firmness, etc., and can know him. And it is a lifetime honor for me to be honored by his love and become his son-in-law, and it is even more worthy of boasting than winning ten battles.

- Always love you and miss you Aegron. "

At the end of the battle, Major Hench suggested that Aigron should write a most affectionate letter to Teresa to comfort her in her lovesickness.

Of course Aigron was happy to do so, so he thought for a while, and then he wrote this disgusting letter that made him a little embarrassed.

In order to further enhance the atmosphere, Aiglon sprinkled a few drops of water on the stationery when he was writing the letter, and used water marks to pretend to be tears. This common trick of the French is always very effective.

In all fairness the trick is not that brilliant, but women trapped in love are always willing to fall for it, they are happy to believe that their lover will cry for them, just as they do.

The effect he wanted was obtained immediately - Teresa just swept it once, and she was already tearful and almost cried on the spot.

All the grievances and expectations have been satisfied at this moment.

After reading this short letter, Teresa's eyes returned to the new beginning, and then continued to read it again, and then she finally noticed the water marks on the letter.

In an instant, a picture appeared in her mind-Aegron was already in tears when he wrote this letter.

"Poor Aegron." In an instant, she couldn't restrain her emotions any longer, and she burst into tears. "How miserable he is without me by his side..."

While crying, she felt relieved at the same time, because she fulfilled her promise and helped her beloved with all her strength.

She didn't dare to say that Aigron's success was all brought about by her, but at least she had a force that could not be ignored - and for her, participating in a great cause was also the value of her life. The embodiment is the glory she has dreamed of since she was a child.

There is no doubt that there are too many difficulties and obstacles on Aegron's way, but as long as the two continue to walk, there will be no obstacles to stop them.

And at that time, the two of them can hold the grandest wedding, get the blessings of everyone, and then form a happy family, spread the branches and leaves of this great surname, and continue forever...

She held the thin letter paper with trembling hands, crying and laughing, her cheeks blushing, if someone who knew her was present, she would be horrified, thinking she had some kind of illness.

After a while, she finally regained her composure.

She then opened her own collection of file boxes and put the letter in a serious collection - it will be one of the most important memories of her life.

Then, she reopened the door and called Chanel in.

"His Royal Highness, what's the matter with you?" Looking at Teresa's red and swollen eyes, Chanel was greatly surprised.

"It's nothing..." Teresa shook her head, then replied with a smile, "I just read the letter Aegron sent me just now, so I was so moved... I made you laugh."

"So it is." Chanel lowered his head and said nothing.

She was happy and sad at the same time.

Your Majesty did not write a letter to me specifically...

She also knew that this was the inevitable result, but she couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

However, His Majesty's victory is more important than anything else, and she doesn't have to worry about it all day.

"It's been so hard for you these days." Teresa nodded her thanks to Chanel, "Because of our hard work, His Royal Highness was able to fight on the front line without any worries, and we will never forget your achievements."

After Aigron left, he left Teresa as commander in Mesoni, but because Teresa was inconvenient to make public appearances, Chanel often appeared on her behalf to convey all kinds of instructions in the name of the head of His Majesty's side, so Chanel You can be considered laborious.

"This is what I should do, Your Highness." Chanel tried hard not to reveal the grief in his heart, and respectfully replied to Teresa, "It is the greatest thing for me to see His Majesty lead the Empire to glory again. relieved..."

"It's too early to talk about going to glory..." Teresa laughed, "Although His Highness has won, the war is not over yet, and there are still too many things waiting for him... We have to make persistent efforts. ."

Then, she took out a string of pearl bracelets from the box and handed it to Chanel.

This string of bracelets is woven with gold thread, and there are exquisite patterns on the thread, which looks very precious.

"In order to celebrate the victory, and to reward you for your service by my side these days, I will give it to you, please accept this trivial gift-"

Although Theresa is modest in her mouth, it is certainly not a "trivial" thing - in fact, this is a precious treasure that her mother specially selected to give her when she left Austria.

For Teresa, all jewelry and treasures are just outside things, and they are not worth saving—as long as she can win over the people around her, she can take as much as she has.

However, despite the presence of such precious and beautiful jewelry in front of her, Chanel was not much excited. After all, for her, accepting the reward also meant that she had to bow down to Her Royal Highness Theresa——

But what can be done? She must face the reality and must never cause trouble to His Majesty.

So she could only bow down to Theresa.

"Thank you for your gift, Your Highness! I am forever grateful for your generosity."

Then she took the jewelry and carefully put it on her hand.

"How is Father Faria?" Teresa asked again after she had put on the bracelet.

"Father is resting now - he is in a very good mood after hearing His Majesty's good news today, and he is laughing and talking with me." Chanel replied.

"That's just... take me to see him." Teresa said with a smile.

"Yes!"

Then, Chanel and Teresa walked along the corridor to Father Faria's room, and at this time, Father Faria, who was lying on the bed, was closing his eyes and resting.

After hearing a knock on the door, he opened his eyes and let the two visitors in.

He struggled to move his body to pay homage to His Royal Highness Theresa, but Chanel quickly helped him to lie down on the edge of the bed.

"I'm sorry to disturb you now, Father Faria." Before the bed, Teresa saluted the priest gracefully.

"I haven't congratulated you yet, it's my fault, Your Highness." Father Faria replied to her with a smile.

"Congratulations can be done at any time, and anyone can do it, but your brainpower and wisdom are irreplaceable." Teresa replied gently, "I came to you now, just to ask you for advice, now What should I do best?"

"Send someone to Rome immediately, find Cardinal Fish, and let him meet the Pope." Father Faria replied without thinking, "The Pope has already reached a tacit agreement with His Majesty, as long as His Majesty can achieve certain achievements. , he is willing to advocate for His Majesty - and now, it is time for him to fulfill his promise."

Then, he told Teresa the inside story of Aegron's previous transactions in Rome and the top leaders of the church.

"Okay, I get it..." Teresa understood all this immediately. "Thank you for your pointers."

Rome...the glorious capital of the world.

This city also has a different place in Teresa's heart - this is of course not out of religious feelings, but because it is there that she reunites with His Royal Highness and is destined for life.

Obviously, it was the priest's idea to let His Highness go to Rome, so she felt even more favorable towards Father Faria in her heart.

"You can call it the Victory of Lepanto - mentioning Nafpaktos, I am afraid that no one in the whole of Europe knows about it, but when it comes to Lepanto, everyone will have historical associations, and this is for His Majesty. Bailey is harmless." Of course, the priest didn't know what Teresa was thinking, but continued, "You must act fast, as long as the Pope speaks, His Majesty's money in Rome will not be wasted!"
