Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 422: 46, debut

"My career will always have your indispensable part."

Recently, Aigron has made similar statements to Marquis Treville several times. He knows that the general will follow him without abandoning, and it cannot be just out of loyalty, there must be his pursuit.

Therefore, he intentionally instilled in the general that he would reward the general family in the future—on the one hand, this was an expedient measure to win people’s hearts; but on the other hand, out of personal feelings, he also hoped that the Treville family would be able to repay the general family in the future. Make a good story with him.

He wasn't worried that the general's family would be too big. After all, the general's only son, Edgar, couldn't be used for a lot, and he had no corresponding ability whether he was in politics or in the military, so he couldn't continue to have the power to threaten him after the general's death. As for his granddaughter Xia Lu... ...not just a girl, but it will be many years before she grows up, so what's there to worry about?

To sum up, Aegron felt that General Treville's family was an excellent material to show the public - the more he gave them a reward, everyone would think that His Majesty the Emperor was talking about old feelings, and would never forget the hero to make it easier for him Stable people.

General Treville didn't know what the young majesty was thinking, but he showed a grateful expression just right.

Then, he made another suggestion to Aegron, "Your Majesty, you can rest here these few days and enjoy the scenery here, but try not to appear in front of people. Since you have agreed with my plan, then I will arrange with people. For the next action, try to get ready as soon as possible.”

"Well, let's do it like this." Aegron nodded, and then asked again, "So are the routes and methods of evacuation ready?"

"Don't worry, this is the top priority-" General Treville nodded, "I will prepare several routes, and choose according to needs when the time comes, until I send you out of the border, I will I will say goodbye to you and return to Paris."

"Well, I'm very relieved to have you arrange everything." Aigron replied slightly tiredly, "Then let it go, I put all my trust in you."

Seeing Aigron's tired face, Marquis Treville knew in his heart that he should end the conversation.

However, he didn't want it to end like this.

He has always had another thing hidden in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it because he didn't have the opportunity to be alone with young people before.

Now, it was a god-sent opportunity, and he didn't have to worry about Princess Teresa's eyes and ears next to him.

"Your Majesty, let's talk about something easy." He changed his tone, and the expression on his face softened.

"Well, is there anything else interesting?" Agron asked rhetorically.

It stands to reason that the Marquis should follow the rules in the social field, first give a hint of the clouds and fog, and then cryptically express what he thinks in his heart, but the character he created in front of others is "a soldier with a straight heart", so he I chose to go straight to the topic.

"When my son returned to Paris, he told me that you seem to be interested in my daughter-in-law's sister, Miss Agnes?"

Aigron's heart moved, and then he raised his head to look at the general, wondering what the other party meant.

"Well... honestly I think it's interesting to get along with her, she's an interesting person."

"Beautiful too," added the Marquis of Treville with the real emphasis. "Not only is she beautiful, but she has a lively and funny personality. She doesn't put on airs. To be honest, I am also very happy when I get along with her."

"Yes, I think so too." Aegron nodded implicitly, and then waited for the other party's next sentence.

Now that this is said, the Marquis of Treville naturally does not intend to go around in circles anymore.

"You also know that my daughter-in-law has always hoped to match you and Miss Agnes, but it's a pity that things have become like this." Like his son, the Marquis of Treville also immediately pulled his daughter-in-law out as a Shield, "However, even if you are married now, I still think that you and Miss Agnes are a perfect match-"

Aegron's heart suddenly moved.

It seems that the Marquis of Treville has not given up on the original idea?

He was happy about it.

"Hey, what's the use of saying that? Miss Agnes is such a proud person. If I'm unmarried, maybe she'll consider it, but now that I'm married and I'm about to have a child, it must be difficult for her to come. Accept me." He sighed regretfully, "Hey, what a pity, it's really pleasant to be with her."

Since Aegron had suggested so, there was no reason for Marquis Treville not to continue.

"How can she be unwilling? You are Your Majesty, and your will is the will of the country. What qualification does a little girl like her have to talk about whether she is willing or not?" None of them live alone in the world, there are always many things to consider.”

Agron frowned slightly. "Threatening her with her parents?"

"Threats? How can you talk about it? Where do you need to threaten..." The Marquis of Treville smiled disdainfully, "My relatives, the Ong family, managed to escape the storm of the revolution and returned to Paris to enjoy How can they accept that they have lost all of this suddenly? If you can come to France, I am afraid that they will be more than happy to see Agnes as your best friend, so that they can continue their good life. "

Aegron remembered that Edgar had said something similar in front of him before—it seemed that this was actually what the Marquis of Treville meant.

He knew that the father and son were so enthusiastic, they must have their own purpose, but... they can laugh at this loyalty.

"That's what I said, but what should I do?" Aegron asked in a low voice.

"Agnes seems proud, but she has a soft ear to her family. Anyway, among the younger generation, I have never seen someone who cares more about her family than her... So, when I go back to Paris, I will do it. Through Alice's work, as long as she nods her head, the rest will be easy." General Treville expressed his thoughts.

"Alice wouldn't do that." Aegron replied categorically. He had met Alice in Switzerland before and had a little understanding of her character. He felt that Alice would never be a sister who would sell her sister for glory.

"You do know Alice very well." The Marquis of Treville nodded lightly, "but don't forget, she is now the wife of my son, the mother of my granddaughter, she has more things to worry about, as long as Think of a way to finally get her to nod."

Aegron suddenly felt that Alice's marriage to Edgar was indeed a bit of a wolf's den.

But now he didn't have time to feel sorry for Alice, and he still didn't quite believe that the general could do it.

Perhaps seeing Aigron's thoughts, the Marquis of Treville smiled slightly, "Your Majesty, since you have placed such trust in me, can you entrust me with this matter? I will do my best. It's been done for you - it's our family's honor."

Now that this is said, what else does Aegron have to object to? So he nodded. "Okay, I'll leave it to you."

After speaking, the two of them smiled tacitly.

"Your Majesty's vision is too high, whether it is Princess Teresa or Agnes, they are extremely outstanding candidates..." The Marquis of Treville sighed, "I think that if you come to Paris one day, those ladies will I am afraid they will be very disappointed, presumably you will not pay attention to the vulgar fans."

"Actually... I mainly care about character." Aegron replied with a bit of a twist. "Beauty is second to me. The most important thing is the brilliance of their souls, which is dazzling and fascinating."

The Marquis of Treville was dubious about this, and he knew that he couldn't keep asking, so he ended the "Feng Ya" topic with a loud laugh.

Next, the Marquis of Treville continued to carry out his plan, and Aigron was also happy to relax, hiding in this temporary settlement, enjoying the French countryside scenery.

Soon, it was time to implement the plan.

On this morning, Aigron took a group of his followers to the coffee shop in the town.

And as they expected, there were a lot of people sitting in the cafe at this time, and the one sitting in the middle was the mayor of this small town.

This is a short fat man with a big belly, red face, about fifty or sixty years old, with wrinkles all over his face, although he looks like a smile on the surface, but there are many deep wrinkles across his forehead, which makes him Looking more like a sad face, he was already covered with white hair, and weeping eyes under gray eyebrows, and the profile of his cheeks, seen from the side, gave his head a solemn expression of pain.

Aigron walked in front of him while observing him.

It was so simple that no one would have imagined, and no one would have believed, that such a big thing could happen in this little out-of-the-way place - and yet, it happened.

This is the place where Aegron first appeared. As an emperor, it is not imposing enough, but now is not the time to ask too much.

The mayor was very puzzled by the sudden group of strangers, he stopped the conversation with others, and then turned his head to look at Aegron.

Agron smiled and nodded to him, then made a gesture.

Immediately afterwards, Andre Davout next to him grabbed him by the collar and forcibly lifted him from his seat.

Immediately, the coffee cup beside the mayor fell to the ground and shattered, and this crisp sound woke everyone up, and the others stood up from their seats and tried to rescue the mayor, but someone beside Aegron took out a pistol. , is a shot at the roof.

"boom!"

Amid the loud noise, everyone was stunned.

"If you don't want to die, everyone sits where they are!" Andre Davout shouted loudly, still holding the mayor in his hand.

The mayor's face suddenly turned pale, he looked at the group of uninvited guests in front of him in disbelief, and his original expression became even more sad.

He had guessed something.

"I know you're in shock right now, so please allow me to introduce myself." Aigron looked at each other with kindness, and then said softly, "I am the heir of the Bonaparte family, and I have just returned to France."

"King of Rome... God!" The mayor, who was already feeling a little foreboding, still couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Thank you for remembering my title." Aigron smiled, nodded at the other party again, and then he asked kindly, "Then, Mr. Mayor, I need to ask for some help from you."

The mayor's body shook violently. "no no!"

Aigron frowned, and then Andre Davout punched him in the chest. The old man spasmed because of the severe pain, and stopped struggling.

"I don't seem to have given you an option to refuse cooperation."

Then, Aigron asked others to control the cafe, and then asked Andre Davout to drag the mayor into the next room.

Perhaps because of the punch, the mayor no longer struggled, and just looked at Aegron quietly, his expression was not much fear, but an expression of indescribable expression.

"Sir, I repeat, please cooperate with me. I only need your cooperation for a short time. As long as you cooperate with me, you will be free after a few hours, and nothing will happen." Say kindly to the other person, "But if you choose not to cooperate, then I won't be so kind."

"You...you came back after all..." The old man didn't answer his question, but instead let out a sigh, it seemed he was a little lost, "France, haven't you paid off your debts yet?!"

"What are you talking about?" Agron was a little impatient, ready to ask Andre Davout to punch the old guy again.

"I have two sons." The old man sighed before Andre Davout punched, "or I had two sons. They both served Napoleon, one in the Guard and one in the Guard. It's a major dragoon, my parents died long ago, and I lost my wife to the plague during the revolution. I live alone in this little isolated place—and I have only sons far away.

In those lonely days, I collected every letter they sent, and read it over and over from time to time. I remembered every word they wrote, and I could even feel their smile and sadness when they wrote these words. ! Their letters were very optimistic at first, and everything went well, but as time passed, they became more and more tired of fighting outside, and only continued to fight with weapons because they had sworn an oath of allegiance to your father... My eldest son is here Died in Poland in 1807 in a place I can't name. When I received the bad news, I just felt like the world was spinning. He left me only his medal and saber, but what do these things mean to me? use? I want to see my son, I don't understand to this day why he died for Poland! "

When talking about the excitement, the mayor's eyes filled with tears, and he almost choked up, unable to speak.

Perhaps it was because the grief that was aroused from within was so deep that everyone else was silent, and even Aigron didn't stop him for a while.

Soon, the mayor took a few deep breaths and calmed down a little, "Finally, the empire fell, Napoleon abdicated, and my youngest son was sent home. He served the country for many years but he did not receive any respect and praise. Just went home like this, just because he was loyal to the emperor... He was very angry about it, but I was just very happy, I don't care how many medals my son got back, I just want to see him stay in front of me, Then marry a wife and have children, and send me to my death. But God refuses to have mercy on my humble wish! Just a year after abdication, he... he ran back again, how the **** did he come back?!"

While talking, the mayor made a desperate gesture to express his inner pain and helplessness, but this dramatic performance did not provoke ridicule or laughter from the two people, because they were in a heavy heart and vaguely guessed. What will happen next...

"Unlike me, my youngest son cheered on this, he felt he had a chance to get back the honor he had lost, and this little fool also felt that he owed the emperor a favor, and as soon as the emperor's draft order came to us, he was happy He rushed over to be drafted into the army, and ran away without even saying a word to me for fear that I would dissuade him! What can I do? I can only wait at home, anxiously asking God and my dead wife to bless this Fool... I can only wait, thinking about his safety all the time, I must read every newspaper, I personally go to the post office every day to inquire about the development of the war situation, I have received a good letter from him, from Fleurus, Lini, good news one after another, I thought I was lucky this time? It turned out... After the damned Battle of Waterloo, France suddenly declared a national mourning, and I, the unlucky bastard, of course I didn't have luck! Just one evening , I was informed that my major's son's orderly had come to us, I ran over and saw this man on my son's horse, I didn't have to ask anything, I understood everything! He was dead and was killed by a A cannonball exploded into two pieces. Alas, just like this, my two sons, the most obedient and filial son, they all fell down, and there was nothing left! I stood there blankly, watching the sky turn blood stained I was dragged home until it was dark... But I only have a house, where else can I live!?"

When it came to this, the mayor couldn't hold back his feelings any longer, and burst into tears, but Aigron and Andre Davout still didn't stop him - at this moment, if one was not allowed to suffer the pain of losing his son twice His father was sad and grief-stricken, which was too inhumane.

Aigron stood quietly in front of the other party and let him cry, until after a long time, the mayor finally stopped crying again.

Then he raised his head and stared at Aegron with his still tearful eyes.

"King of Rome, even though my two sons died because of the Empire, I don't hate you - you were just a young and ignorant child when the Empire fell, how can I hate a child who can't take any responsibility? , as a father who has sacrificed both sons to the empire, I have the right to tell you that I am tired, I don't want to participate in all this anymore, I don't want to let the original time come back again, and I don't want to let another father also suffer the same affliction!"

The mayor said more and more loudly, and finally shouted out to Aigron, "Yes, I refuse to cooperate with you, and I do not want to carry out any of your orders. For me, the monarch of France is only His Majesty Charles X! If you think I have committed treason, then you can execute me now, anyway, my time is running out, it would be better to reunite with my family soon!"
