Eagle's Glory

"Mr. de Treville, it's a pleasure to meet you." Aigron put aside other distracting thoughts, walked up to the young man, and then stretched out his hand to him calmly, "Your wife and sister just took me as a The robbers who ran in at night chased me here."

Edgar finally understood what happened, and an inexplicable embarrassment appeared on his face.

"Uh... sir, I'm sorry..." He held Aegron's hand and apologized to the young man again and again, "Agnes was too persistent in trying to protect us, so there was a terrible misunderstanding, please forgive me Her rashness."

Then, he turned his head to look at the girl, "Agnes, you have caused a catastrophe, please apologize to this gentleman immediately!"

The expression on Agnes's face became so strange that she finally believed that she almost took an innocent man for a robber.

Although the light is very dim now, everyone can see that her face has turned red.

After hesitating for a moment, Agnes withdrew her sword, then walked up to Aegron with her head down, and bowed to apologize to him.

"I'm sorry, sir... I... I... I was too rude to you just now, please forgive my offense!"

She fell into a deep sense of self-ashamedness, knowing that she had caused so much trouble for everyone by causing so much trouble, so she didn't dare to be tough anymore, she just lowered her eyebrows and looked at the soil diagonally below her eyes, not daring to meet anyone's eyes.

Right now, she really looks like a weak girl, she is no longer as sharp and awe-inspiring as before.

Seeing her sincere apology, Aegron's original anger also dissipated.

Since everyone is on their own and has already admitted their mistakes, there is nothing to pursue.

"It's okay, I think it's normal for Miss Nordleyn to have some misunderstandings in the environment just now." He shrugged, "Okay, now that the misunderstandings have been resolved, let's not stay here any longer. It's already very late, everyone go back and rest, we can talk about something tomorrow."

"Yeah, let's go." Edgar also echoed, and then looked at Agnes. "Okay, Agnes, this time, you should be more careful in the future,"

Then, he looked at the young man again, "Sir, after being woken up, I'm afraid I won't be able to fall asleep for a while, how about we drink two glasses? Let's dissolve all the unpleasantness in the cup, and by the way Let's pass the time by chatting about young people."

Since he is at such a time, Aigron certainly understands.

"Ok, no problem."

Seeing that Aigron agreed, Edgar also looked back at his wife.

"Then Alice, I want to have two drinks with this friend, you can take Agnes to rest first."

Alice hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement. "Okay, drink less, I don't want you lying next to me reeking of alcohol!"

Then, seeing Agnes's downcast look, Alice hugged her sister again, and then gently patted her shoulder to comfort and encourage her.

"Agnes, don't be discouraged. Although you did something wrong this time, your intentions are good. Both Edgar and I are very grateful for your kindness...it doesn't matter, since this gentleman has accepted your intention Apologize, then everything is over, next time you encounter a similar situation, just pay attention."

"Thank you, Alice." Agnes was greatly encouraged by her sister's relief, and finally regained her spirits. "I'll pay attention to it in the future..."

After finishing speaking, a group of people walked towards the farmhouse together, and Aigron was also preparing to accept Edgar de Treville's audience.

"Sir, what's your name?" Alice suddenly asked the young man just as she was about to step into the farmhouse.

"Memmingen." Aigron blurted out without thinking, "Frantz-Memmingen."

"Oh... yes." Alice nodded lightly, and then bowed to Aigron, "Mr. Memmingen, I'm sorry that Agnes' rash behavior just now caused you trouble."

"You are too polite, I said, this is nothing." Aigron replied with a smile.

Then, a group of people split up. Aigron, Second Lieutenant Favre, Edgar and others went to the living room, while Alice and Agnes went to their respective bedrooms.

"Alice, I'm sorry...I've shamed you..."

Agnes grabbed the quilt tightly and covered her face with it, looking extremely aggrieved, and her voice became a lot duller because of the quilt, "Things are so strange today, so I think it's wrong to cause such a disturbance .Damn me... how could I shame you!"

"Agnes, take a good rest, you should be exhausted today, right?" Alice sighed softly, and then whispered to her sister, "All this is not your responsibility, at least not entirely. It seems that we are indeed unconsciously Came into a conspiracy ... it just wasn't what we thought it would be at first."

"Conspiracy?!" Agnes suddenly became nervous again, pulled back the quilt and looked at her sister again, "What's wrong? Is there any danger?"

"Don't take it seriously, I'm just talking casually, what a silly child!" Alice couldn't help laughing, and then pinched her cheek.

But her smile seemed very forced, thoughtful.

"What's the matter, Alice? You seem to have something on your mind." Agnes felt a little strange looking at her sister.

Alice came back to her senses, and quickly hid her gaffe with a smile, only a little nervousness and panic were hidden in her eyes.

"It's nothing, go to sleep, Agnes...you must be exhausted today."

Then she murmured softly, "As long as Edgar has fun..."　　

11. Edgar

In the dark moonlight, Aigron, Edgar de Treville and his party walked to the living room in the farmhouse together.

According to their original plan, they were supposed to meet again tomorrow, but Agnes's unexpected move disrupted their plan. In this case, Aegron decided to make the wrong mistake, anyway, it doesn't make any difference if they see each other sooner or later.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?!"

At this time, Chanel, who was resting under the barn, also came out, and walked in front of Aigron anxiously.

"It's okay, Chanel, it's just that there was an accident. Now that the accident has been resolved, you don't have to worry." Aigron smiled and comforted her.

Then he looked at Edgar again, "Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Edgar de Treville, who just came to see me from France—"

Then he introduced Chanel to Edgar, "This is Miss Noel, she is my manager, takes care of my daily life, and is also my absolute trusted person."

"Miss Noel, good evening." Edgar stood up quickly and bowed to Chanel, "It's a pleasure to meet you——you have done a very great job, and I am grateful for His Majesty's I am so grateful for your caring care.”

Although Edgar's words were just flattering compliments, Chanel was delighted to hear it.

She fled France since she was a child, and of course she didn't know much about the French aristocratic lineage, but from the surname of the young man opposite De Treville, as well as his appearance and behavior, it can be seen that he must be an aristocratic youth.

In the past, such a person would not have cared about her at all, but now he is flattering and flattering her...

This is an honor bestowed on me by Your Majesty!Chanel thought.

In order not to embarrass His Majesty, she tried her best to control her little pride and excitement, and saluted the young man solemnly.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, Monsieur de Treville. I am very touched by your loyalty, and your Majesty's cause requires your help."

After exchanging pleasantries, Chanel left the living room and went back to rest in peace, while Egron and Edgar sat around the farmhouse owner's dining table, while the others either rested or let the wind outside, and the whole farm returned to its previous silence.

The owner of the farm, Second Lieutenant Favre, brought his self-brewed fruit wine and two glasses. Aigron poured himself a large glass, then took a big sip, and let out a long sigh of relief.

The embarrassment he felt when he was chased and fled by the girl just now disappeared without a trace, and he regained his former composure—of course, the dirt on his body did not disappear so easily.

"I finally see you...Your Majesty!" Edgar, who was finally not disturbed by others, saluted Aigron respectfully, in order to clarify the status between the two people. "Long live the Empire!"

"Please sit down, Edgar." Aigron smiled kindly at the other party. "It's nice to see you too."

He knew that now was not the time to put on airs. The Treville family was now his most important supporter in France, and he needed to win over them.

"Your Majesty, I am very sorry that you have brought danger because of my negligence... Please forgive my mistake." Edgar apologized again.

"It's okay." Aigron shook his head, expressing that he didn't care, "The little girl's impulsive temper is beyond your control. She walks with you all the way, and it's normal to be suspicious. By the way, she probably won't tell the truth. ? I heard that their sisters are from exiled aristocratic families."

"Don't worry about this. Neither Alice nor Agnes is interested in political matters. The reason she did it just now was because she was worried that you would endanger our safety." Edgar shook his head with a smile, " Based on what I know about Alice, even if she guesses something, she won't go into it..."

Aigron also believes this explanation. He and Alice are newlyweds, and they seem to have a pretty good relationship. Is there any benefit for Alice to report her husband and send him to prison after returning to China?

He also relaxed at the thought of this.

With the help of dim candlelight, Aigron carefully looked at Edgar.

This is a young man with blond hair and blue eyes, probably in his early 20s, with a gentle and handsome face, a sharp chin, fair skin and slender fingers, giving him the air of an artist.

At this time, there was still a carefree smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he didn't care about everything.

He is indeed a very likable young man—if he has any shortcomings, he looks a bit too frivolous, resembling the image of a libertine in various dramas.

"I am very grateful to your family for supporting me." Aigron kept his first impression deep in his heart, and then looked at each other with a sincere expression, "Please rest assured, Edgar, as long as you are always loyal to me, And cooperate with my instructions, then the empire will definitely have a place for you in the future."

Edgar didn't look too excited, just nodded.

"Your Majesty, my father and I are willing to dedicate everything to the empire in order to repay your kindness."

Aigron could see that although Edgar had been dealing with himself normally, he was always absent-minded.

It looks like a student who wants to be lazy but has to cheer up and finish his homework.

What the hell is this guy thinking?Doesn't he know what he's doing?

"Is there anything your father wants you to tell me?" Eggron asked, holding back his impatience.

"My father did ask me to tell you something." Edgar quickly cheered up, "To be precise, he asked me to recite a list, the list is all the sages he knows who support you, he thinks This will help you."

"Great, copy the list and give it to me as soon as possible!" Eggron was overjoyed.

"It's very late today. I'm afraid I won't remember clearly. I'll write it out and give it to you when I wake up tomorrow." Edgar replied with a smile.

"No problem." Aigron was in a good mood, so he readily agreed.

It seems that General Treville was really cautious, split the task into two, and let the servant and his son perform it separately.

Well, this is indeed the man who does great things.He couldn't help feeling a little more fond of the Treville family, and he immediately liked Edgar a lot.

After the most critical problem was solved, the two began to chat.

And this seems to have come to the field that Edgar is good at. He cheered up and talked to Aigron vividly about the customs of Paris and the recent anecdotes in social circles.

He talked of the grandeur of the Tuileries and the Louvre, of the elegance of the mansions of the Saint-Germain Quarter, and concluded with the Arc de Triomphe that Napoleon had ordered.

"The Arc de Triomphe awaits your return, Your Majesty." Edgar said solemnly to Aigron.

"I will go back, but not now." Aigron sighed calmly, "I was only four years old when I left France, and I have almost forgotten everything there... But it doesn't matter, I will have a lifetime Come to reacquaint yourself with everything I once had, nothing less."

"Only when you come to Paris, this capital will live up to its name and become the center of Europe, and France will become great again because of you." Edgar warmly complimented the young man, and then he winked at the young man, " And then, I can take you to find the best treasures—and I assure you, no one knows how to make your stay in Paris better than I do."

"The best treasure?" Aigron was a little puzzled, "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, it seems that you are still too young." Edgar replied proudly, "The best treasures in Paris are, of course, those ladies and ladies. It’s so different from those German women in Vienna you stayed in before! You made the most correct decision in the world by running away from Austria.”

Aigron frowned, but didn't speak.

What did this guy think he was running away for?

"Paris is a hive of beehives. Everyone is busy making fun of himself, quarreling so much that only the smartest and loveliest people can get the sweetest nectar in this hive—" Edgar's A smug smile appeared on his face, almost frivolous, "Your Majesty, I'm not boasting, I'm definitely the best guide you can find."

"You mean, do you have a lot of romance?" Aigron asked rhetorically.

"Naturally! Your Majesty, I am one of the most popular young people in Paris." Edgar nodded emphatically, "To tell you the truth, I said goodbye to a certain princess before I left Paris. Let her accept not seeing me for a while."

Perhaps because he was worried that Aigron would not believe it, he added a special sentence, "You know, I am good at drawing, so every time I meet with Miss or Madam, I will draw their most beautiful figures and give them a copy , I keep one copy for myself, so I have accumulated a picture album. Every piece in this picture album has poured my heart and soul into it, my ideas, they are well-deserved art treasures, and I dare say that this is the most valuable in Paris One of the treasures! Alas, it’s a pity that such a treasure cannot be made public in the world, let alone viewed at will, but if you want to see it, I can share it with you alone, and then you will experience the thrill of Paris It's beautiful!"

When he said this, Edgar's face was full of smiles and enthusiasm, and he was completely different from the listless and routine look just now.

It turned out that all his energy had gone to these places... Eggron understood.

"You were saying goodbye to your mistress before you left Paris?" he asked.

"Yes, she is a very lovely and gentle princess. If you return to France in the future, I can introduce her to you. Maybe you can even kiss her..." Edgar showed a happy face. Smile, seems to be very proud of his own ideas. "I think she would be glad to know you, too."

Aegron sighed secretly.

He is not a prudish person, living in the world of aristocrats, of course he also knows how everyone lives, and he has long been familiar with such things, and he has no intention of morally condemning Edgar—and Surely Edgar would not care about any moral condemnation.

Even himself, didn't he seduce Sophie to fulfill her wish before fleeing?What right do you have to criticize others?

However, no matter how you say it, now is not the time to talk about such topics.

When talking about such an important topic, it is necessary to talk about Fengyue. Edgar is too lacking in self-awareness, and lacks the proper sense of tension. He has not really devoted himself to his career.

To put it simply, he is not made for great things—no wonder even General Treville, who dotes on him so much, dare not entrust his son with important tasks.

And isn't he just newly married?That is to say, he was still seeing his mistress before taking his wife on a wedding trip.

After thinking about it, this is also his private life, and Aigron decided not to pursue this issue any more.

Although it was only the first meeting, from this brief conversation he had already seen who Edgar really was—he was a playboy, an optimist artist, he had no interest in the so-called great cause of empire, just Because of his father's strict requirements, it's just a routine. All his interests and hobbies are concentrated on the promiscuous life, and he doesn't even care about any personal ambitions.

If you don't place high expectations on him, he is a very pleasant person to get along with.

Ugh……

The Marquis de Treville lost his wife in his early years, but as a result, he neglected to discipline and spoiled his son into what he is today. He must regret it now...?

Aegron smiled bitterly in his heart.

But since he has promised the general that he will keep his descendants rich, he will naturally keep his promise.

Edgar can't be an excellent politician or soldier, but it's no problem to be a courtier or royal painter—it can even be said to be very suitable.

It's time to end the conversation.

Aigron took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was already early morning.

"Edgar, it's getting late, we should go to rest, see you tomorrow - remember to write the list to me then." Aigron stretched out his hand to the other party.

"Okay!" Edgar nodded emphatically, then stood up gracefully, and held the young man's hand. "Your Majesty, may God bless you!"

After letting go, Edgar was about to leave.
