Eagle’s Glory

After explaining to Andre Davout, Agron also ended his hunting trip and returned to Nafpaktos with his own guard and Agnes.

However, compared to the complacent he left in the morning, he is a little more preoccupied now—as for Agnes, he is even more preoccupied.

It can be seen that Agron's actions just now greatly shook the girl's heart and made her angry. However, deep down in her heart, she didn't seem to be so angry.

The original longing and affection for young people were now entangled with loss and anger, which made her overwhelmed, and finally solved the problem by escaping.

After returning to his residence, Agron walked to Agnes again, saluted her and apologized again.

"Agnes, I apologize to you for my absurd behavior and I hope you forgive me."

As he just said to Andre, he has decided to keep Agnes on his side no matter what, and in order to achieve this goal, he must also start by mending the relationship between the two.

"Since I have already said to forgive you, I will naturally keep my promise, and you don't need to continue to apologize." Agnes replied calmly, "Just, please pay attention in the future, and there will be no next time."

No, I just want next time, next time, next time, next time! Aegron answered in his heart.

"Okay, I'm glad you can forgive me and let today's turmoil end here... We just happen to be able to discuss how to get along in the future." He smiled.

However, his smile did not affect Agnes, she still looked at the young man coldly.

"How to get along?" Agnes laughed sarcastically. "Has something happened between us that needs to change the way we get along? In my opinion, I should be more attentive to you in the future."

"That can't be done." Aegron shook his head, "I want to continue to be friends with you - I want to continue to be able to see your smile, because it will make me very happy too."

"It's just your own idea, why should I follow it?" Agnes asked angrily, then she laughed and sarcastically, "Yes, there are thousands of people here who are obediently listening to your orders, what you say is what you say. ... Naturally, I thought I had to do my own thing, didn't I?"

"No... Agnes, you misunderstood, this is not an order, and I don't mean to threaten you with a gun, because I know that noble souls will not yield to guns, and friends don't rely on orders. I can get it." Aegron shook his head, then looked at the other person gently, "I'm just expressing a decision of mine, I... admire you very much, and I can even feel the value of your soul from the bottom of my heart. , because of this, I approach you unconsciously, and I will try my best to keep you by my side, you can refuse, or even keep refusing, but as long as we continue to get along, the final result may not be that I lose - I think I'll get my wish, as I've done it before."

Aigron's expression was serious and devoted, as if it came from the heart - of course, he actually said that on purpose.

Although Agnes has a strong personality, she is young and competitive. These are her weaknesses. Although Agnes is the same age as Agnes, he has already learned to be so insightful in the court, so he can catch these weaknesses.

Young is romantic and willing to listen to warm words; competitive is willing to face challenges head-on.

Sure enough, just as he expected, Agnes was speechless.

She didn't know which of the young man's words was true or false, but these words seemed to easily tug at her heartstrings.

She could feel that when the two of them were talking today, whether it was hunting or now, the young man was unusually candid, even a little bit of confidence.

"You underestimate me too much!" Distraught, she shouted back, "I won't worry about you... In fact, I wish that your **** war in Greece would end soon, so that I could take my incompetent brother-in-law with me. Hurry home and stay as far away from you as possible."

"However, even if you hide in Paris, you can't hide." Aigron still looked at him calmly, "My throne is there, and one day I will go back and make you the admirer of all the French people. Idol... Of course, I'm sure you don't really care about this kind of fake name at all - but, I hope to use the most gorgeous lace to embellish our friendship."

After all, he had experienced it in the arena, and Agron could easily deal with a little girl like Agnes.

Agnes was angry and ashamed, she didn't want to face Agron's eyes, and finally she patted the table with her hands.

"I can see it, your heart is really hard as iron, everything is either a stumbling block or a stepping stone in your opinion, no matter how emotional you are, you can control yourself to make cold judgments, Approach calmly and escape calmly..."

Then, she took a few deep breaths, tried her best to calm herself down, and sighed, "You are hateful, but you have such a charming charm that Princess Teresa can't let go of... But "His Royal Highness, can't you think about it, what are you doing? Since you chose Princess Teresa to accompany you, why bother to torture other people's hearts? I... I really can't imagine why you are so unsatisfied! "

After she finished speaking, as if she had lifted the burden from her heart, she walked away.

Agron quietly watched the back of Agnes leaving.

He had to admit that her last words hit his vitals, as if she was flogging his soul.

It seems that despite having little interest in politics or socializing, she still has an innate intelligence and acumen.

Unfortunately, this kind of soul torture could not shake him.

"Because, I like, and I want to chase after the most beautiful things in the world, insatiable and never satisfied. I have lost everything, so I don't want to lose anything, on the contrary, I have to get what I want to get it. Stop." Aegron replied in a low voice to the void, "I want to conquer and take everything I want, regardless of whether I deserve it or not... This is what I expect from myself."

This is exactly what he thought deep in his heart.

Enough said today, Agnes may have reached the limit now, and can only wait until later to repair the relationship between the two.

And he believes that what he has is an opportunity.

After a moment of silence, he put aside his quarrel with Agnes and refocused on his work.

He opened the letter that had just been sent from Methoni in the rear today, and the first one was a handwritten letter from his great-uncle, Cardinal Joseph Fish, from Rome.

In the letter, the cardinal reported to him a long-awaited good news-under the operation of Cardinal Fish, the Pope of Rome has publicly praised his righteous deeds in his sermons.

Moreover, unexpectedly, His Majesty's words are very advanced, which makes him a little flattered - you must know that "Christian example" is not everyone's qualifications.

Obviously, the Pope has his own purpose, but the objective fact is that he kept his promise, so Aigron was very satisfied with the Pope's performance.

In the agreement he negotiated with Cardinal Vittorio Esposito, the representative of the Pope, both sides were implemented in stages. Now that the Pope is delivering a sermon, it means that a new stage can be entered.

In the letter, his great-uncle also told him that Cardinal Vittorio Esposito wanted to involve his illegitimate son and get a piece of the pie.

Of course, Aegron readily accepted this request—the cardinal did so out of his own interests, but objectively speaking, it also showed that he was becoming more and more optimistic about himself.

In other words, this is an intuitive proof that the stock "Bonaparte" is now bullish, and someone is willing to invest.

As for Aegron, who was at the start-up stage, of course, he chose not to refuse.

So, he immediately drafted a reply letter, instructing his uncle and grandfather to continue to have a good relationship with the cardinal. As for the illegitimate child, he immediately prepared a generous gift and tried to win over to his side.

After processing this letter, he opened another file, and this time, his excitement was a little more than before.

The content of the letter is actually very simple - Metternich decided to send his confidant secretary, Mr. Friedrich Genz, as ambassador to Istanbul.

Although the news was brief, to Aegron, this was nothing short of a thunderbolt on the ground.

Of course, he could see that there was only one reason for Metternich to do this—that is, the situation in Turkey was going to change dramatically, and he needed to respond with all his strength.

Although he is very confident, he also has self-knowledge. He knows that the so-called "amazing change" is of course not because of himself - so, there is only one answer.

The Tsar is about to send troops.

And that's all he's been waiting for.

For him, all the uproar in Greece is not for the Greeks themselves, but to get what he wants in the next international situation.

Of course, he can't lead the so-called international situation at the moment. He can only try his best to follow the trend, stir the situation, and then pray that the situation will move in the direction he wants.

And now... he did wait for the moment he wanted most.

After all, the Tsar could not hold back his ambitions and decided to use his victory in foreign wars to wash away the stain of his suppression of domestic progressives.

Although he has a foresight to history, but witnessing history in person at this moment feels completely different - he knows that he is already influencing the trajectory of history in a small way.

In the future, he will definitely do more.

He and the Romanov royal family have a deep hatred that cannot be resolved, but at this moment he is only grateful to the young tsar.

Since the tsar wants to act, he has to act faster on his own side-because the more brilliant his side is, the more reason to be watched. People who are frightened by the tsar's actions will eventually discover their worth.

Take action! He clenched his fists and said to himself.

His rest has been enough, and it is time to continue the march. If he can win another glorious victory before the tsar sends troops, then the world will know who did his best for the liberation of the Greeks.

In this way, Aegron stood up and went to bathe with great ambition to wash away the mud and dust contaminated by hunting.

While Aigron was excited by the new news, Teresa, who stayed in Methoni, was also excited by the news from Austria.

However, compared to Aegron, she was different. After receiving the letter from her father, she was happiest with another piece of news—

Metternich has already expressed implicitly on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor that she is willing to admit her marriage to Aigron.

Although she was ready to break with Austria when she left home, deep in her heart, of course, she still has an incomparable nostalgia for her motherland and the family she came from, and she hopes more than anyone else to be able to Recognized by the royal family.

And now, the thing she dreamed of has finally fallen into her hands, what could make her happier than this?

Of course, she also knew that this belated blessing was by no means unconditional.

Metternich hopes that himself and His Royal Highness can act according to his wishes.

However, she is not disgusted with this requirement, after all, they originally intended to obtain and objectively need the secret support of the foreign powers.

Therefore, it is okay to compromise with Metternich even temporarily.

With this thought in mind, she summoned Captain Forestie, who was with her.

"Your Highness, do you have any orders?" The captain saluted her as soon as he saw her, and then asked again.

"Yes, sir, I have a task for you--" Theresa also did not polite, but went straight to the topic, "I just received a letter from my father, Prime Minister Metternich has now sent a new The ambassador to Turkey will take up his post immediately. I hope you can go to Istanbul with my letter and my father's certificate, and then meet him as an Austrian, so that we can keep in touch after that."

The captain froze for a moment.

What he cared about was not the danger of this trip, but that he did not expect that he would have a relationship with the Austrian government again.

"You...you mean that Your Excellency the Prime Minister has forgiven His Highness?"

Teresa didn't answer, just nodded with a smile, but she couldn't hide the pride and excitement in it.

"That's great!" the captain blurted out.

As an Austrian, although he reluctantly served Aegron because of His Royal Highness Theresa, deep down he still wanted to serve the motherland.

"I will rely on you next, please remember that your actions are very important to us." Teresa urged again, "In order to show due sincerity, I will present a gift to Mr. Ambassador, please Let's hand it over together."

"Okay, I understand..." The captain nodded again and again, and then hesitated, "However, I was given the responsibility of guarding the treasure by His Royal Highness. If I leave, it doesn't matter on your side, right?"

"Of course it doesn't matter." Teresa replied proudly and confidently, "Now that we have our army here, everything is under my control, you can rest assured."

Then, she frowned slightly, "It's your Highness... I really miss it."

"He must be missing you too, Your Highness," replied the captain. "It seems to me that you will get what you want, and I will do my best for it."

"Thank you." Teresa greeted him with a smile and watched the captain turn and leave.
