"God bless you."

Aunt's comfort and hug made Aigron feel a warmth from the bottom of his heart.

Although he has been separated from each other for more than ten years, there is still family affection between them after all.

He climbed mountains all the way, endured hunger and cold in fear and fear, and endured so many hardships, but in the warm embrace of Queen Odance, the cold and tiredness seemed to be swept away in an instant.

"Thank you," he said emotionally. "You have given me great relief that at least my family is on my side at this time."

At this moment, the maid brought the cakes that had been made in a hurry to satisfy the hunger of several young people, and Aigron called Chanel who was waiting in the outer room.

"Your Majesty, it's a pleasure to meet you." Chanel bowed respectfully to Queen Altangs as soon as she came in, and then stood by the dining table, obviously shy and afraid to sit down.

The members of the "royal family" are all in front of her, so how dare she make a fuss?

"This is...?" Queen Otangs looked at Chanel.

"She was my maid in Austria and the most steadfast follower of the empire." Aigron replied, and then told Chanel's life experience in front of Queen Odance and her two cousins.

After listening to it, the people present all sighed at her life experience full of ups and downs.

"What a poor child... a child suffers from the things of adults!" Queen Ottens sighed, "Fortunately, I was rescued by my brother, otherwise I don't know what would have happened!"

Yes, Prince Eugene, who took care of them in Bavaria when the aunt took Chanel escaped from France and wandered around, was Napoleon's stepson and the elder brother of Princess Odance.

Therefore, Chanel's respect for Otangs is not only because of her title, but also because she is the only sister of the prince.

"If His Highness hadn't taken us in, we would have died in a corner long ago..." Chanel had tears in her eyes, and looked at Queen Autangs with respect, "I will always be grateful for His Highness's kindness, just because of gratitude." , so I swore a long time ago that I will be loyal to the Bonaparte family all my life, and my descendants will also do the same, only in this way can I repay this kindness!"

Seeing Chanel's fanatical expression, Queen Otangs was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled wryly.

"Don't be so serious. It's just a matter of effort. Thousands of people died for our family back then. We should make some compensation. It's good that you want to be loyal to the Bonaparte family, but you can do what you can Come on, don't put too much burden on yourself..."

Then, she beckoned, "Come on, sit down and have something to eat with us, you must be very hungry."

"But...how is this good?" Chanel hesitated, "Your Highness and Your Majesty..."

"Your Majesty! Are any of us really big shots now?" Otangs shook her head, interrupting Chanel's words, "Don't make us act like a farce, obviously we are already wandering in exile Oh, and you still look like a nobleman!"

"Okay, Chanel, sit down, don't go against the queen's opinion." Aigron nodded with a smile, and motioned for her to sit down, "I said, no matter where I am, there will be a place for you."

Chanel was so moved that she could hardly speak, she could only nod her head heavily, and then sat down.

"Thank you for giving me such an honor..."

After she sat down, the four young men began to eat, and Queen Ottens just looked at them quietly because she had already had dinner.

Eggron, who was hungry, ate several cakes in one go, and his tired body was refilled with energy.

"Can you answer a few questions for me, Eggron?" Queen Ottens asked suddenly after seeing that he was full. "Although I have been living in seclusion these years, I have heard a lot about you.

I don't know which ones are true and which ones are not, so I want to confirm from you yourself. "

"Just ask, I know everything." Aigron nodded immediately.

"How did the Austrians treat you? I heard that they mistreated you, but it doesn't seem to be the case..." Queen Ottens asked first.

"It depends on how you define abuse." Aigron thought for a while, and then replied, "They didn't treat me badly in terms of living conditions, and provided me with corresponding educators according to the standards of members of the royal family, but corresponding I also lost my freedom of movement, and was ordered never to appear in front of the world in the name of the heir to the empire... Generally speaking, they need me to be a treasured toy, and sometimes they need to throw it out to scare people."

"It's a very vivid description..." Queen Otangs nodded, "Then... I read in the newspaper that you plan to propose to the daughter of Grand Duke Karl, and even said that the marriage is a foregone conclusion, no Is it true that it will be officially announced on the 1st? To be honest, when I first saw the news, I was happy for you from the bottom of my heart for a long time."

This question immediately made Aigron's expression unstoppable, and the sweet cake in his mouth seemed to lose its taste.

"It's true on the surface." After a moment of silence, he nodded, "However, I just use this as a cover-up, and I don't really intend to propose. I admit that it's too much to do, but sometimes I can only do something something of necessity."

After a pause, as if to excuse himself, he added, "Before I fled, I left a letter, assumed all responsibilities, and guaranteed Teresa The purity of the princess herself. I expect this letter to be published soon as news of my escape spreads, as the Archduke Karl desperately needs to clear his daughter's name."

"If this is the case, it would be a little bit of face saving, but this girl is still too pitiful." Queen Odance said with some sympathy, "It seems that you really sacrificed a lot of things."

"...Yes, I sacrificed too many things." Aigron's expression became serious, and he recalled his last night in Vienna, and suddenly his heart throbbed quietly, and he managed to maintain it A surface of calm. "So I have to win a big victory. Only in this way can I live up to all the sacrifices."

"Your Majesty, you will definitely be able to do it." Chanel interjected excitedly, "Princess Teresa will definitely understand what you have done... You cannot sacrifice the empire for her. Besides, you have already left enough There is more room for her, and she will soon be able to rediscover her own happiness."

"Yeah, what is this? As long as His Majesty is on the throne again, wouldn't it be easy to find a princess to be the queen?" Louis said nonchalantly. "The crown only needs to be worn on the head of a princess, and it doesn't matter who it is."

Listening to their words, Queen Otangs couldn't help sighing in her heart.

These young people really don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth! They regard what they are doing now as a magnificent expedition and a fairy tale, but they don't know what the price is, let alone how terrible things are blocking them in front of them.

She witnessed hundreds of thousands of foreign troops entering Paris with her own eyes. Even Napoleon himself felt desperate at that scene. What can these children do?

She suppressed the boredom in her heart, and then looked at the young man again.

"Then Aigron, how do you plan to deal with the relationship with Austria next? After you escape, they will definitely go crazy and hunt you everywhere."

"I will issue a statement, not in Switzerland, of course, but secretly sent to a newspaper in France and Germany, who will be ecstatic and risky to read my letter. If it comes out, it will definitely be big news that will cause a stir in Europe."

Under the gaze of Otangs, Aigron expressed his plan, "In the statement, I will make it clear that I will take a long-term trip in Europe and bid farewell to Austria temporarily. And I am grateful to my grandfather for taking care of me all the time, I will also vouch that I have a lot of love for Austria, I have the best memories and kindest expectations there, and I will definitely go back to the place where I grew up after my travels.. I will always respect the Emperor of Austria and him heirs, and gladly repay their favor."

His answer surprised Queen Otangs a little.

"You put your figure down very low."

"I have only a few resources in my hand now, so what can I do if I don't judge the situation and lower my figure?" Aigron shrugged with a smile, "I don't think it's meaningful to be untimely arrogance. The commissioner nodded and bowed..."

"Will the Austrians accept your statement?" Queen Ortance thought for a while, and then asked again.

"I have stayed with Metternich and His Majesty the Emperor for eleven years, and I have observed them all the time, so I understand them." Aigron laughed, "Please believe me, after they saw the statement, the first For a while there would be a fit of rage, calling me an ungrateful brat, but after a few minutes they would hesitate, and then finally remain silent, neither accepting nor disapproving."

"Why do you judge so much?" Otangs was a little puzzled.

"You must never forget that the two of them are the kind of people who will never be swayed by emotions, and they are very good at reconciling with the enemy-they fought against my father back then, and even the capital was occupied twice. In the end, a reconciliation was made, and it was Metternich who took the initiative to please Napoleon and recommended him to marry his own princess." Aigron replied in a low voice, "They don't care about face and know how to judge the situation, so even though they will be mad at me It's furious, but after I take the initiative to send a signal of reconciliation, they will weigh it."

After a pause, he continued, "Although they may not think highly of me now, as long as I am not caught, they can only find a way to compromise with reality. As long as I can make achievements in the future, sooner or later Austria will need me." One step down, so I leave a leeway now, it may be much easier for everyone to repair the relationship in the future."

This is indeed his plan.

For Aigron, his biggest opponent now is the Bourbon royal family of France. The positions of the two sides are close to irreconcilable, and there is basically no room for compromise; This is the basic motivation for him to seek the "understanding" of Austria.

He grew up with Metternich, and he has long seen clearly that the other party is an old expert who turns his hands into clouds and turns his hands into rain. Are you losing your mind over something like this?

Therefore, in the end, the two sides will compromise, as long as he can come up with enough trading items.

Now that he is softening his body, he is preparing for the future compromise between the two sides, and Metternich will definitely not let go of this signal.

Of course, it is impossible for them to pull down their faces and say that they have done a good job and that they are really just traveling alone, so Aigron concluded that they would just keep an elegant silence, not make any judgments on the facts, and wait for the development of the situation to react .

Aigron told the people present his plan exactly.

Not only Chanel, Louis, and Charlie listened with gusto, but even Queen Odance listened enthralled.

After he finished speaking, the way Queen Otangs looked at the young man changed a little.

She originally thought that he was blindly following her son and escaped with his bloody arrogance and impulsiveness, but she didn't expect that on the first night of escaping to Switzerland, he had already planned what to do next.

And, as far as she was concerned, the whole process was decent and appropriate.

"Aigron, I didn't expect you to think about so many things." She couldn't help but say. "It seems that you are growing faster than others."

"I had to spend my childhood learning these things," Aegron replied with a wry smile.

"Okay then... Since you have already made plans, I won't ask too much, I can only wish you all the best..." Aotangsi nodded lightly, "Are you almost full? Rest early. "

It was late and she was very tired. "I'll see you tomorrow. I will find a way to arrange a safe hiding place for you. Don't be afraid. At least for a short period of time, you can be safe in Switzerland..."

"This has helped me a lot." Aigron stood up and extended his hand to Queen Odance to express his gratitude.

Looking at the handsome and handsome young man in front of her, and feeling the vitality bursting from him, Aotangsi's eyes suddenly became a little dazed.

Yes, time already belongs to their younger generation.

As for my generation, they can only silently wait for the exit, and all they can do is try their best to help these children before exiting.

In 1814, her mother passed away; in 1821, her stepfather passed away; in 1824, her own brother also passed away... The close relatives she once knew passed away one by one, and she didn't know when they would take turns again to herself, but she is not afraid of that day coming.

She reached out and took the young man's hand.

"Do you need financial assistance?" Then, she asked the young man wearily.

Aigron was stunned for a while. He didn't expect that Queen Odance would say it before he mentioned the word money.

"Of course I need it." But he didn't miss the opportunity, and nodded immediately, "If you are willing to sponsor..."

"Of course I would be happy to sponsor the cause of my son and our great monarch." Queen Odance smiled slightly. "Besides, I'm old anyway, so what's the use of keeping the money? Anyway, I have to give it to my children, so it's the same if I give it earlier."

Although she said so, Aigron could tell from her eyes that she didn't believe that she could succeed.

She just wanted to help her son and nephew.

But because of this, it seems even more valuable.

"One tenth, I want one tenth, is that okay?" After a moment of silence, he blurted out.
