His voice became lower and lower, obviously feeling guilty and embarrassed for "bargaining with His Majesty the Emperor".

But Aigron was not angry, he had already been mentally prepared for similar complaints.

To put it bluntly, now I only have an empty title, and only those ambitious people who have no money in their hands will come and follow me. If they are already rich and prosperous, why should they follow me?

"Don't worry, I understand General Treville's difficulties, so I won't ask the general to spend money on it." He smiled slightly, making people look like a spring breeze, "On the contrary, after I settle down, I will give him A sum of money, let him take on this task, find a way to send people to me, the more the better."

After a pause, Aigron continued to encourage the other party, "In terms of money, don't have any worries for now. Although our Bonaparte family has fallen from the throne, the wealth we have accumulated is still very considerable, and my relatives They were more than happy to give me grants for my cause."

While speaking, Aigron raised a finger.

"To tell you the truth, my aunt, Queen Hortons alone, generously donated me 100 million francs, and I can take a part of it for you to give back to General Treville as his special funds. "

There is no doubt that Aigron's words are not true. First of all, Queen Otangs only sponsored 30 yuan, and he was not sure whether his uncles and uncles would donate money to sponsor him.

But due to the current situation, he must boast to give his supporters a shot in the arm.

He knows that he is now the focus of attention of all supporters, and the more confident and calm he is, the more confident his supporters will be.

Conversely, if he showed any signs of discouragement or despair, the confidence of his supporters would be severely damaged.

"100 million..." Obviously Aigron's words had an immediate effect. After hearing this number, the servant slightly opened his eyes.

Then, he nodded emphatically, "Your Majesty, I am very moved... even at this time, there are so many people loyal to you, so why should we be afraid that the great cause will not be successful? You will definitely get back what you are destined to deserve everything."

"If you want to live a wealthy life for a lifetime, 100 million francs is more than enough; but if you want to achieve great things, 100 million is not enough, not even a fraction, so I will continue to find ways to raise funds." Calm down, "There are still a lot of things we need to do next, please work hard with me, as long as I take that country back into my hands, let alone 100 million, even if it is 1000 billion, what is it? "

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Under his encouragement, the servant also cheered up, and he stood at attention and saluted Aigron.

"There is a heavy responsibility on your shoulders, and you must not slack off." Aigron patted the other party's shoulder encouragingly.

Then, as if he had sensed something, he looked around again, using the moonlight to look around.

At this moment, he felt as if something strange happened.

But no matter how he looked, everything around him was still as dead and silent as before, but he suddenly had a strange feeling, as if someone was secretly spying on him.

Is it an illusion?Or is there really something going on?

Aigron didn't show his thoughts, but patted the servant's shoulder calmly.

"Okay, it's getting late, go back and rest early, don't make people suspicious."

"Okay, Your Majesty." The servant nodded, then turned and left, walking back to the distant farmhouse where Edgar and his wife slept.

And Aigron was also walking slowly towards the barn in the night, preparing to end his walk.

Everything is quiet, everything is so quiet, only the bleak moonlight guides him, but the closer he gets to the destination, the more restless he feels.

In the end, he stopped, turned around, and looked at the way he came from, suspiciously.

"Who are you?" He couldn't help asking.

Following his doubts, a pair of skirts slowly emerged in the darkness, and then the light gradually moved up like a curtain, slowly revealing a slender waist, and then a slight bulge on the chest, and finally, the girl The appearance appeared in front of him.

Although she looked delicate, her eyes were sharp and indifferent, staring at Aigron like a cat that had found its prey.

And she was holding a parasol tightly in her hand.

Under the cold moonlight, she suddenly appeared in front of the young man as if she were on stage.

Looking at the beautiful girl in front of him, Aigron only felt a little shocked.

But the other party's expression was indifferent, and there was obvious guard and hostility in his eyes, so he also secretly became alert.

"Who are you? Madame de Treville? No, no, she shouldn't be so young..." he whispered.

"Hey!" The girl opposite raised her eyebrows, "It seems that you are really weird."

Then, she asked Aigron, "Who are you? What were you talking about just now? Did you conspire with him to harm the master?"

Ok?

Eggron was stunned again.

Did she regard herself as a bandit who conspired with the evil servant to rob the master?

Should she be praised for being alert or imaginative?

"Maybe you misunderstood, miss." Aigron spread his hands, "I'm just a resident here, and I happened to be walking here tonight, so I had a few words with that servant."

"Is the excuse you can think of just these nonsense?" The girl on the opposite side sneered, "I asked the owner here, we are the only residents in the farm. And I felt something was wrong from the beginning, why did he You have to decide to live in this desolate place... Now it seems that it really was a premeditated action, but fortunately I was aware of it."

Aegron frowned.

Really good insight.

But why does she seem to know nothing about herself?

"Miss, would you believe me if I said that I have no ill intentions towards you or Mr. and Mrs. Treville?" He suppressed the doubts in his heart, and then asked the other party.

"That depends on how you explain it. In short, catch it first and then talk about it!"

The girl sneered and replied.

Then she continued to approach Aigron. Although her footsteps were light, she gave him a very bad sense of oppression.

"For your own safety, I advise you not to resist."

The girl proudly spoke to him.

Then, he suddenly noticed that the girl pulled out a thin sword from the handle of the umbrella, and while the brilliance flowed, she rushed towards him quickly.  

10. Misunderstanding and intuition

Under the cold moonlight, the girl changed her slow and restrained movements, and suddenly drew out her sword extremely quickly, and then sprinted towards the boy at a speed that was almost hard to see.

Her movements are smooth and natural, flowing like a dance, so beautiful that Eggron's eyes are dazzled for a moment.

But soon he felt the terrible danger, and retreated instinctively.

"Don't even try to run!" The girl showed a contemptuous smile, and then continued to chase mercilessly.

hell!Aegron couldn't help cursing in his heart.

He couldn't figure out where this girl came from, and she was so powerful. What made him speechless was that the two became enemies in a misunderstanding.

So what should we do next?

Explain it well?

It seemed that he could no longer come up with a convincing explanation for her.

Just tie your hands?

That's even more impossible.

A desperate fight...?

Leaving aside the risk, it is ridiculous to fight to the death for such an inexplicable reason.

However, no matter what, your own safety comes first. If someone threatens your life, then you must respond with the most drastic means, no matter what the reason is.

Since escaping, he has been carrying a pistol in his arms all the time. Now that the two sides are at war, he doesn't have so many scruples.

However, this is obviously not a good time to shoot.

Aigron shook his heart, and ran back along the road he had been walking just now.

He has been trained for a long time, and his reaction speed and running speed are naturally faster than ordinary people, so on the bumpy dirt road, the girl chased the boy with a sword and ran farther and farther.

Soon, Eggron ran back to the edge of the woods, leaped over the barriers of the fence, and then rushed into the bushes, hiding himself in the darkness of the woods.

The girl stopped by the fence, because she was running all the way just now, her face was slightly flushed, and she looked at the direction where the young man had just disappeared, unwillingly.

"Do you have the guts to do bad things, but don't you have the guts to accept sanctions?" She asked angrily. "Come out!"

"I'll say it again, I'm not a bandit, you misunderstood me!" Aegron hid behind a tree, quietly staring at the girl not far away.

He had shelter and distance between the two of them, and now he had a leisurely chance to draw his gun and fire.

In other words - now he holds the initiative.

In order not to let the other party misunderstand, he specially reminded the girl. "I don't want to fight you desperately, but if you insist on doing something to me, then I'm not polite! I have a pistol on me, if you continue to threaten me with force, then I will shoot!"

"Then you shoot! If you shoot, someone will come and help me catch you, right?" Agnes showed no fear on her face, but it was obvious that her footsteps stopped, and she used the fence to cover her body. "He also said that he is not a bandit - broke into someone's house with a gun in the middle of the night. Could this be a good person?"

Aigron was speechless for a moment.

He found that under the current situation, no matter how he explained, it seemed difficult to get rid of the suspicion.

what to do?Aegron frowned.

The other party seemed to have no intention of retreating, and stayed here to confront him.

The more time dragged on, the more troublesome it became, and I couldn't care so much.

Then let your wish come true...

He raised the muzzle of his gun and fired a shot into the sky.

"boom!"

There was a sudden loud noise in the secluded woods and open space.

Almost immediately after, there was a little commotion in the originally quiet farmhouse, and soon, several figures rushed out of the farmhouse and rushed to the place where the gunshots were fired.

The leader was the owner of the farmhouse, former Second Lieutenant Favre of the Swiss Army, and the servant who followed him was the servant who had just chatted with Aigron.

The two of them rushed to the side of the woods, looking at the girl hiding behind the fence in astonishment.

And Egron also came out of the shadows, holding a pistol and watching the girl's hiding place vigilantly, and then joined two of his followers.

Agnes opened her eyes wide, completely confused about what happened. The owner of the farm had no hostility towards this young man, and stood with the servant?

Could it be that this is a whole gang of bandits who have already colluded together and are just waiting for the young noble couple to be caught and make a fortune?

Although she was flustered in her heart, she could only hold the long sword tightly, and looked at the three men facing him fearlessly.

My sister is in danger now, and she must do everything in her power to protect her.

"Are you okay?" Second Lieutenant Favre looked at the young man and asked nervously.

"I'm fine." Aigron shook his head lightly, then looked at the girl opposite. "Who is she? Do you know her?"

"This is Madame's sister, Ms. Agnes de Norderleen!" Before Lieutenant Favre could reply, the servant quickly explained, "Your Majesty, sir, don't shoot! It's all a misunderstanding!"

So it's not an outsider... Aigron secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

At the moment when he shot to call people, Aigron had already made up his mind not to let this sudden enemy escape, even killing people if necessary.

Now it seems that there is no need to make a cruel and ruthless choice.

"Explain to her that I'm not a bandit who sneaked in." Aegron pouted.

He has regained his usual calmness, and now the positions of the two have been completely reversed, and he is the one who takes the full initiative.

Captain Favre was a little surprised at first, but after looking at the expressions of the two people, he probably understood something.

"Miss, don't get me wrong, this is my relative, who is temporarily staying at my house. So when you asked me if there were any other guests, I said no... This is all a misunderstanding, I'm sorry to make you a false alarm! "

Second Lieutenant Favre had served in the Imperial Army for many years. Of course he could speak French, but he always had a Swiss-German accent. Now, because of nervousness, his voice changed, and there was a lot of babbling, which Agnes struggled to understand.

It's all a misunderstanding...?

Agnes's originally tense body relaxed a little, but she still looked at the three people across from her in surprise.

"Miss Nordleen, you should trust me now, right?" Aigron lowered his gun, expressing that he was not hostile. "I don't want to get involved in an inexplicable battle. I was just walking, and I ran into this gentleman by the way, so I just had a casual chat. I am very interested in France, so I asked him something about France. Everything It's that simple--"

In order to increase his persuasiveness, he managed to squeeze out a gentle smile, but under the cold and dim moonlight, this smile looked a bit sinister anyway.

The girl was obviously a little confused, she didn't know whether she should believe this young man's words.

"Agnes!" At this moment, an anxious call came from not far away, and then a pair of young men and women ran over in disheveled clothes. "It's okay!"

Aigron watched as a young woman with long blond hair ran to the girl's side and hugged her tightly.

It seems that this should be Edgar de Treville's wife Alice.

Then he looked at the blond young man next to the woman.

This young man has short hair and looks handsome and extraordinary, but he looks like a childish child who doesn't care about everything.

At the same time, the young man was also looking at him, obviously recognizing him at a glance.

Hehe, I originally planned to meet Edgar tomorrow, but I didn't expect to meet him in the early hours of this morning, and it was in such a messy situation.

Life is really full of surprises.
