Eagle's Glory

Since Alice won't denounce him, surely Agnes won't either.

Agnes seemed to think of something, then opened her eyes wide and stared at Aegron in disbelief.

Then, she slowly turned her head and looked at her sister and brother-in-law in the distance, as if she wanted them to give her an explanation.

Alice in the distance also smiled and nodded to Agnes, signaling her to calm down first.

"It seems that she and His Majesty had a good conversation." Edgar whispered abruptly.

"Yeah, I think they can be friends." Alice nodded. "Even if you put aside your majesty's status, he is enough to be a friend... This is Agnes' honor."

"Then Agnes may be more honored..." Edgar blinked his eyes, as if feeling inspired, "If Your Majesty is willing... You see, she is indeed very cute, and she shares similar interests with His Majesty." .”

"Where are you thinking!" Alice glared at her husband.

Then, she shook her head, "I won't do that... Agnes is my dear sister, not a bargain, she should have her own life, and we don't need to rely on her to please His Majesty. Besides, Your Majesty Don't you have a fiancée?"

"He has abandoned that princess." Edgar looked disapproving. "Otherwise how would he come here?"

"That's not our turn to worry about him! If he really achieves great things, there are so many princesses in Europe for him to choose to wear crowns, so what does it matter to Agnes?" Alice seemed a little angry, " Edgar, I don't want you to talk about this subject anymore. I say again, only Agnes herself can decide her future life! Just as I decided to marry you instead of being betrothed to someone else by my father."

Seeing his wife getting angry in a rare way, Edgar quickly apologized. "Honey, don't be angry, I'm just joking... don't take it to heart."　　

17. Decision and Celebration

Of course, Egron was not aware of the quarrel between the Trevilles. In fact, he had been looking at Agnes with great interest, admiring her changing expressions.

First I was shocked, then I was nervous, then I was in doubt, and finally I became overwhelmed and confused.

Although Agnes is not interested in political matters at all, she also knows the position of General Treville. After confirming the identity of the young man in front of her, she immediately thought that Edgar and his party came here deliberately The real intention of the farm.

No wonder... no wonder... her mind suddenly brightened, because everything made sense.

Agnes finally understood why her sister behaved so abnormally and looked so strange that night.

Now, it's her turn to make trouble—what should I do with this guy?

The sister and brother-in-law seemed to have become his supporters, so in theory they regarded themselves as his subjects, but Agnes couldn't help but think of this young man as her "Your Majesty" all at once.

After all, she was born in a traditional exiled aristocratic family, and all she heard from a young age was contempt and curses on Napoleon. Alice could change her position because she married and changed her surname, but it was really difficult for her to change all of a sudden. thinking.

However, it seems that it is not okay to offend him-it will only embarrass my sister and brother-in-law.

So what should we do?

Agnes, who had never encountered a similar problem, subconsciously looked at her sister and wanted to ask her for help, but she didn't seem to get any answers.

"You must be in trouble, don't you know how to treat me?" Seeing her confused look, Aigron couldn't help laughing.

"Yeah, it's really annoying." Agnes admitted honestly, and then asked him simply, "You... what should I call you?"

"If you find it difficult, just keep calling me Mr. Memmingen. After all, I have never said that I am another person in front of you. If you want, you can continue to pretend that nothing happened and I am still the same person." Franz Memmingen - I like that name anyway."

"You're so easy-going... That's great." Agnes was visibly relieved. "Then I will continue to call you Herr Memmingen!"

"It's not easy-going, it's just reality." Aigron still replied with a smile, "I don't have an inch of territory in my hands now, and the so-called throne only exists in my mouth. It doesn't matter if my supporters are willing to call me Your Majesty, but It would be ridiculous to force people who are not my supporters to call me Your Majesty."

Then, his smile became serious again, "Of course, if I come to France one day, I will never tolerate anyone disrespecting me. At that time, you will have to call me Your Majesty even if you don't want to."

Agnes felt the strong self-confidence in the young man.

Strange to say, what others said seemed ridiculous, but what he said was inexplicably convincing and appealing.

So how should we face it?

Logically speaking, it is impossible for her family to hope to see the Bonaparte family regain the throne, but now that her sister has boarded the pirate ship, she does not want to see her sister suffer from this.

"Agnes, don't be nervous, I promised your sister that I will never forcibly involve you in my restoration cause." Aigron comforted her again, "So, you don't have any need to worry about how you should face And distress, none of this involves you, you just traveled with your sister and met a stranger, and then you can continue to live as in the past, nothing happened, and nothing will change."

"Alice... is too considerate of me..." Agnes lowered her head movedly, and then she complained softly, "But Alice is too stupid, since she has already been involved, how can I Possibly on the sidelines? I have to protect Alice."

"Huh?" Aigron didn't respond for a while.

Under his stunned gaze, Agnes raised her head and looked at her.

Her eyes were very determined, as if she had made up her mind.

"Mr. Memmingen—please forgive me, I still can't call you Your Majesty, so I will continue to use this title. I have never had a relationship with you, nor have I had any overlapping interests, so I have no loyalty It's your reason... But Alice's reason is enough for me, if she chooses the Empire, then I am also willing to vote for the Empire."

"Uh..." Aigron was even more astonished, he didn't expect things to develop like this.

"I won't take the initiative to do anything for you, but if my sister encounters any danger, I will stand up to protect her. I know this is definitely a dangerous subversive activity, and the Wang family will never tolerate rebellion... In addition, if my sister wants me to do something for you, I will also consider it. I trust my sister's judgment, and since she supports you, I also believe it is reasonable."

It's really sisterly love... Aigron probably understands.

That is to say, Agnes still chose to stand with her sister between her sister Alice and the family—just as she supported her sister marrying into the Treville family back then.

He didn't know what to say now, so he could only smile and nod in the end. "Thanks."

"Mr. Memmingen, you don't need to thank me, I'm just following my own wishes." Agnes still emphasized the title, while looking at the young man stubbornly, "Besides, I hope that one day we can really draw a winner. "

After she finished speaking, she lifted her skirt, bowed her knees and saluted Aigron, then opened her umbrella and turned to leave.

Seeing her slowly receding back, Aigron only felt respect in his heart.

"If your father and brothers don't become my enemies, I will try my best to tolerate them." Finally, he took the initiative to promise, "I sincerely wish you all the best in the future."

After hearing this promise, Agnes turned her head suddenly, then laughed heartily, and then blinked her right eye.

"Thank you, then I can rest assured!"

=====================================

In the afternoon, Aegron ended his duel with Agnes and returned to the farmhouse.

Although the body is quite tired, but his mood is quite happy.

Chanel immediately walked to his side, and scanned his body worriedly, lest there be any wounds on his body, she was not relieved until she confirmed that he was safe and sound.

"Your Majesty, have you won?"

"It's a tie." Aegron replied with a smile, "Agnes is pretty good."

Chanel's expression suddenly sank.

"Your Majesty, you should pay attention in the future. How can you fight with a sword yourself? You have such a difficult mission on your shoulders, so you can't put yourself at risk for no reason."

"Okay, I know, Chanel." Aigron nodded. "Today was just for fun."

Chanel wanted to say something more, but at this moment the silence of the farm was broken by the neighing of a few horses.

Chanel's face suddenly changed.

"Don't move here!" She warned, and then immediately ran out to observe the situation.

Aigron was also a little nervous. After all, this place is remote, and usually no visitors will come.

Fortunately, after a while, Chanel came back, her expression relaxed.

"Your Majesty, Queen Otangs is visiting! His Royal Highness is also here."

She said cheerfully to Aigron.

"Really? That's great." Aigron also became happy.

On the one hand, the mother and son of Odance came to visit, on the one hand, he could see the aunt again after a long absence; but more importantly, it meant that after two months of hiding, Queen Odance had judged the Swiss official He was no longer nervous about the whereabouts of Duke Reichstedt.

Which is to say... things are finally calming down.

His next big plans can also continue to be implemented.

With a little excitement, he came to the living room of the farmhouse with Chanel.

Queen Otangs was already waiting there, and her two sons were sitting beside her.

She has obviously dressed up seriously today, wearing fancy clothes and earrings. Although the traces of time can be clearly seen, she still looks graceful and luxurious.

After seeing the young man, she stood up and looked at him carefully.

"Aigron, you look pretty good." Then, she laughed happily.

"You are as beautiful as before." Aigron complimented, then walked forward and hugged his aunt warmly, "It's nice to see you again, today you are really radiant!"

"This is for you, my child," replied Queen Ottens with a smile.

"Huh?" Aegron was a little surprised.

"Aigron, do you know what day tomorrow is?" Queen Ottens asked again.

Aigron looked at the calendar next to him.

Showing today is March 3th.

So obviously, tomorrow is March 3th.

Wait... He suddenly understood.

"Tomorrow is my birthday?"

"That's right, silly boy, it seems that you are so bored here that you even forgot about this!" Queen Otangs couldn't help laughing and teasing.

It was only in a trance that the young man realized that tomorrow is March 3th, which is the day he was born.

On this day in 1811, his mother Luisa brought him into the world, Emperor Napoleon's uncle, Cardinal Fish, personally baptized him, and the city of Paris fired 100 salutes to celebrate the arrival of the heir to the empire.

On that day, it seemed that the whole of France was rejoicing for the continuation of the imperial heir. Who would have imagined that the empire would become ruins in just three years?Fate is more fickle than this.

Ever since he came to Austria, the Austrian imperial court has never been able to openly hold birthday celebrations for him, and he himself has no interest in taking the initiative to celebrate, so every birthday, he just celebrates hastily with people around him.

In the end, it was Otangs who reminded him, and he remembered it.

"Congratulations in advance, Your Majesty." Just as he was still in a daze, Queen Otangs spoke again with a smile on her face. "I came here to visit you today, just to celebrate with you tomorrow. I think you should be willing to grant me this honor?"

"Of course! Thank you, Your Majesty the Queen." Eggron was both joyful and moved, and quickly thanked her.

"Well, while there is still time, let's make arrangements for our Majesty's birthday celebration." Queen Aotangsi patted the young man on the back of the head. You can ask my maid to make the cake, you can trust her craftsmanship, and you will be satisfied."

"Okay, thank you." Aigron nodded again and again, "As long as you have your heart, I think the cake will be very delicious."

Not only Aigron, but Chanel next to him was also very moved.

"Your Majesty, I am so ashamed that I didn't prepare for such an important day in advance... I beg you to allow me to be your maid's helper and let me make up for my mistakes. I will definitely remember this great event in the future Days will never be forgotten for a moment."

"Oh, don't say it so seriously, it's just a trivial matter, if you want to help, please come and help." Queen Otangs agreed to her request in a reasonable manner.

Aigron was filled with emotion.

He received more help and kindness from Queen Autangs than he had expected.

So in his opinion, Queen Otangs has proved her loyalty to the family and to himself.

He will pay her back later.

When the empire still existed, his birthday was a big day every year, and the palace would hold a grand celebration ceremony, and everyone was praising God for the birth of the Roman king.

Now, his birthday party can only be held in an obscure small farm in Switzerland, and only a few people will be present.

But so what?

One day he will find those grand sights again.

"In this case, let's make more cakes. We have other guests, so we can invite them together." He suddenly remembered something.

"Other guests?" Queen Otangs was obviously surprised.

"Yes, the heirs of the Treville family are also here." Aigron nodded, and then briefly told Queen Otangs about the Edgar couple.

"General Treville, I've met him before, he is a very handsome and manly soldier." Queen Odance's eyes showed a little nostalgia, obviously recalling the past glory days, "I really don't Thinking that he still maintains his loyalty to the Bonaparte family until now... This is so rare and deserves encouragement."

"I think so too." Aigron smiled, and then looked at Chanel, "Chanel, please go and inform the Edgars for me, I solemnly invite them and Miss Agnes to attend our meeting tomorrow. birthday party."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Chanel immediately agreed.

But in her heart, she felt a little hesitant about His Majesty's attitude.

His Majesty's address and attitude towards that lady were very kind, but she didn't want to see things develop like this.

In her opinion, since the master is destined to become the emperor of the empire, his marriage should also follow the emperor's standard, marrying a princess of a big country—just like his parents.

Although Agnes was born in an aristocratic family, she is still far from this standard. In Chanel's view, she is by no means an ideal candidate for queen.

If she had to choose, she would rather accept the princess who was far away in Vienna as her mistress.

Of course, she can only hide these thoughts in her heart.　　

18, birthday

Under Egron's order, Chanel quickly ran to inform the Treville couple, and they were also very pleasantly surprised, and immediately agreed to this honored invitation to attend His Majesty Napoleon II's birthday party tomorrow.
