Eagle’s Glory

"teacher?!"

The shock and amazement of Agnes at this moment are beyond words.

Although she had already learned from the correspondence that the teacher was coming to Paris, she never imagined that she would meet the teacher at the ball in the palace first.

As far as she knew, although the teacher claimed to have some kind of noble blood, everyone in Italy seemed to be the same, so it was impossible for the palace to be regarded as a distinguished guest, and he would not be invited here.

So why is she here?

Just when she was in shock, Bianca put her finger to her mouth and made a "shush" gesture to signal her not to make any noise.

Agnes suddenly came to her senses, so she forcibly calmed down, stopped talking, and just looked at the teacher suspiciously.

Then, Bianca turned and walked to the corner, and Agnes followed her without a second thought.

Although the dance party is still in the climax stage, after the conflict with the lady, Agnes has lost interest. She is no longer interested in everything here, and doesn't care if anyone will invite her to dance. She just wants to end this as soon as possible. everything, and then forget about this unpleasant experience tonight.

Therefore, for her, now that she can't wait to be watched by anyone, she may be a little happier to stay in a corner where no one is paying attention with the teacher.

The two found a quiet place and sat down, because many people went to dance, so there was no one around to disturb them.

"Teacher, why are you here?" Agnes asked impatiently as soon as she sat down.

"Why can't I be here?" Bianca asked rhetorically. "Can't I come here?"

Her tone was a bit blunt and seemed to be provocative, but Agnes had been with her for so many years, and she already knew her temper well, so she was not angry.

"No... I'm just curious about how you got the invitation, it's impossible to sneak in there~" Agnes asked with a smile.

If someone else was joking with her like this, Bianka would definitely let the other party know what the consequences were, but she was much more tolerant towards Agnes, her apprentice.

"Of course not, I'm a real guest—" Bianka replied indifferently, "You don't need to know the specifics. All in all, I won't cause you any trouble today, don't worry."

"I never worried about that..." Agnes protested.

She had a lot of questions about this in her heart, but since the teacher refused to say more, it was not easy for her to ask further questions.

She had a guess deep down in her heart—when the teacher was in Italy, she had a good relationship with the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and now there are in-laws from the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in the French royal family—

The Duchess of Berry herself is the princess of this kingdom, and so is the Duchess of Orleans, and they are still aunts and nieces in terms of seniority.

So from this level, it is possible for teachers to get a little favor from them.

Of course, she couldn't get to the bottom of it, and she wasn't interested in getting to the bottom of it, so she could only turn the topic to other areas.

"Then what are you doing here today?"

"I'll take a look at the excitement and see how my apprentice has become a popular social star..." Bianca suddenly sneered.

Her words made Agnes blushed instantly, "It's already like this, why are you mocking me again? I'm in a terrible mood tonight, so give me some face!"

Bianka stopped laughing at her apprentice's frustrated look.

"You can't hold it with just this blow? I remember your will is not that weak. Could it be that you have blunted yourself after being the eldest lady for two years?" She asked back.

"It's not that serious, I'm just a little wronged... I didn't do anything wrong, but I was treated coldly here and reprimanded by my wife. Do you think I can stop worrying?" Agnes was wronged Baba Looking at the teacher, he told the teacher what happened to his wife just now.

Bianca listened with a frown, and anger slowly flashed in her eyes.

"How dare she mock you like this? It's ridiculous! What kind of a lady, what kind of decency, what does a woman like her who has been pampered since she was a child know? She actually dares to say nonsense in front of you..." She cursed the lady unceremoniously, "I see It can be seen that she is jealous of you, so she just finds an excuse to ridicule you and make fun of you."

"Teacher, be careful! What if someone hears you?" Agnes was frightened and quickly stopped the teacher from going on.

She understands why the teacher is angry, because her hobby and swordsmanship are all cultivated by the teacher. If the lady denies Agnes, it is naturally equivalent to denying herself. How can a arrogant teacher endure this?

Suddenly, Agnes felt something was wrong. She keenly felt that the teacher was obviously out of breath when she spoke. And now that the two of them are very close, she can see that the teacher's complexion is not normal with the help of the bright candlelight.

"You...you're hurt?" She came to a conclusion she couldn't believe.

Upon hearing this question, Bianka pouted, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. Of course, this was not aimed at the apprentice. "Did you see that? Yes, I did get hurt a bit recently when I played against someone, but I'm recuperating now, so it's fine."

"Who did it? How is he now?" Agnes was greatly surprised, and couldn't help but continue to ask, "If it can hurt you, the other party must be quite good."

In Agnes' mind, there are very few people who can catch up with the teacher's ability, so that opponent might be dead.

The anger in Bianka's eyes grew stronger, she picked up the wine glass angrily, took a sip of wine to herself, and then answered bitterly.

"It is indeed a very famous person, but he is also a despicable and shameless person. The guy was lucky and ran away for him."

"What?" Agnes was even more surprised. She didn't expect that the opponent who had severely injured the teacher would still be able to retreat completely, which was beyond her expectations.

She was surprised by the high fighting spirit that was inspired, and she suddenly felt a little itchy, "Teacher, who is he? Tell me, I will avenge you!"

"It's my own business, it's not your turn, who asked you to avenge me? I'll do it myself." Bianca interrupted her impatiently, "Also, don't mind my business. , you shouldn't get involved in these troubles, and live your own carefree life."

Although the teacher said it very rudely, Agnes could hear her unspoken love for herself, and she didn't know what to say.

She vaguely felt that the teacher's return to Paris this time might not have a simple purpose. Judging from the teacher's attitude, she should be involved in some major event.

What's the big deal? Could she be involved in a political turmoil like the Count of Monte Cristo?

By the way... Count of Monte Cristo! Agnes suddenly remembered this.

"Do you remember the person I mentioned to you?" she asked cautiously, "that foreigner, he has a very good relationship with my sister and brother-in-law, so I taught him a few tricks, he wants to see you skill."

"I have an impression." Bianca nodded, and then replied indifferently, "Okay, if he wants to see you, I'll wait for you at the same place."

The old place she mentioned was the apartment where Agnes took the Count to when the Count came to Paris last time. After Agnes got her assurance, she felt a lot more relieved.

How could Agnes have imagined that, invisibly, she had put her beloved teacher in danger—the Count of Monte Cristo, the teacher’s hidden and dangerous enemy.

Bianka agreed to the apprentice's request, but still seemed a little absent-minded, while drinking with a glass of wine, he observed around with the corner of his eye.

Ordinary people may not feel this abnormality, but Agnes has developed a keen perception since she was a child, so she easily found out that the teacher was observing the surrounding situation.

Why did the teacher carefully observe the palace? Why did she come here secretly?

As far as Agnes knew about the teacher, she was definitely not a person who likes to join in the fun, let alone that she would dance with a certain man present, which is absolutely appalling.

So the motivation of the teacher to come here is absolutely unusual.

Could it be... which royal family member is she going to be bad for?

Agnes just asked the teacher's intentions and was reprimanded by the teacher. She knew that if she asked again, she might anger the teacher, but the terrible conjecture in her heart made her heart pound.

She has been educated by her father to be loyal to the king since she was a child, and it is because of the favor of the royal family that her family was able to get rid of the poverty-stricken exile life-even though she was reprimanded by the Duchess of Berry just now, she still felt right in her heart. The Wang family retained their respect.

And if the teacher is really bad for the Wang family, how should she handle herself.

Because of this kind of worry, Agnes forcibly suppressed the fear of the teacher in her heart, and boldly continued to ask her.

"Teacher, when you came back to Paris this time, why did you go to the palace on purpose? You... are you trying to be detrimental to someone present?"

This question made Bianka's eyes instantly sharpen. She glared at Agnes, while Agnes stiffened her waist and looked back at the teacher as well.

"What if I say yes?" Bianca asked rhetorically. "Will you come to stop me?"

"I..." Agnes just opened her mouth, but found that she didn't know how to answer.

She has no position to call herself a loyal servant of the royal family—because not long ago, she went to Greece to help her brother-in-law and Duke Reichstedt in the Greek war of independence, even if the teacher was really bad for the royal family, What position does she have to accuse?

"I... I'm just worried about you. The security here is heavily guarded. If you act recklessly, the consequences will be disastrous." After hesitating for a while, Agnes chose a detour, "Besides, you were injured before, I'm afraid you will have What a miss..."

Because her tone was very sincere, the sharpness in Bianka's eyes became much lighter.

"At last you still remember that I was your teacher."

Then she sighed again, "Agnes, don't worry, I won't do anything stupid tonight, and I'm not a lunatic, charging against the palace guards."

"Is it only tonight?" Agnes keenly sensed another abnormality in her tone, "You... you are observing the palace, are you planning to do anything in the future?"

Bianka didn't answer, just stared at her apprentice silently - which meant her guess was true.

Agnes was at a loss, she suddenly found herself facing a situation of no small importance, and she didn't know what to do.

Whistleblower? Find the guards and tell them that the teacher has bad intentions? She can't do it.

But just stay out of it and let the teacher take risks in the future?

She has always been indomitable, but now she is in a turmoil and doesn't know what to do.

Her helpless and flustered appearance all fell into Bianka's eyes. Bianka could not understand this apprentice who she had seen since childhood.

"Agnes, you're such a tough kid, ever since you were a child." Bianca sighed, then reached out and stroked the hair on her forehead, "Don't mind your own business, just live your own life. Okay - don't look at this splendid and jeweled place, but it's nothing more than a castle on the beach, and it may collapse at any time, the Duchess of Berry is arrogant and bossy to you today, and looking back I see that she is happy! You are by her Exclusion may also be a good thing, so that you don't have to have anything to do with them, and you don't have any obligations on your shoulders for no reason."

Being touched by her teacher like this, Agnes finally found a little sense of comfort she had not felt for a long time. However, what the teacher said seemed to make her feel a little vaguely familiar again.

"They won't be able to jump around for long." As if the arrogant young man said in front of him.

right! That's what it feels like.

Could it be that the teacher, like the Count of Monte Cristo, participated in the conspiracy of the Bonaparte family, so she came to the palace to step on the spot in preparation for future actions?

Agnes suddenly felt a flash of inspiration, as if she had discovered the truth.

Terrible... Damn... This **** bastard, why did you pull all the people closest to me into the whirlpool! I really want to stab this bastard's chest with a sword.

"Agnes?" Bianka asked when she saw that her eyes were wrong.

"Teacher, could it be you...you..." Agnes paid attention to her surroundings, making sure that no one was watching her, before she boldly leaned over to Bianca, and asked her in a low voice, "You were caught by Leahy. Duke Stadt recruited? Are you working for him? If so... I advise you not to be deceived by him!"

"Huh?" Agnes' remarks had unexpected consequences.

"boom!"

There was only a soft sound, the squeak of the fingers clenching their fists.

Then, Agnes found that the teacher was looking straight at her with a demon-like gaze.

"How could you have such a stupid idea?"
