Eagle’s Glory

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

"You will always have an indispensable part in my career."

In recent times, Aigron has made similar statements to the Marquis of Treville several times. He knows that the general's unyielding pursuit of him cannot be just out of loyalty, but must be pursued by him.

Therefore, he deliberately instilled in the general the concept that he would pay heavy rewards to the general's family in the future - on the one hand, this was an expedient measure to win over people's hearts; but on the other hand, out of personal feelings, he also hoped that the Treville family would be able to grow in the future. Make a good story with him as a monarch and a minister.

He is not worried that the general's family will be overrun. After all, the general's only son Edgar is useless and has no corresponding abilities in politics or the military. Therefore, he cannot continue to have power to threaten the general after his death. As for his granddaughter Xia Lu... …Not only is she a girl, but it will be many years before she grows up, so what is there to worry about?

To sum up, Agron felt that General Treville and his family were excellent publicity materials - the more he rewarded them, the more everyone would think that the Emperor was talking about old friendships and would never forget the heroes, which would be convenient for him. Stabilize people's hearts.

General Treville didn't know what the young majesty was thinking, but he showed just the right expression of gratitude.

Then, he made a suggestion to Aigron, "Your Majesty, you can rest here these days and enjoy the scenery here, but try not to appear in front of others. Since you have agreed to my plan, then I will make arrangements with others. For the next action, try to prepare it as quickly as possible.”

"Well, let's do it like this." Aigron nodded, and then asked, "Then are the evacuation route and method ready?"

"Don't worry, this is the top priority -" General Treville nodded, "I will prepare several routes, and choose according to needs when the time comes. Until I send you across the border, I will Then I will say goodbye to you and return to Paris."

"Well, I feel relieved that you have arranged everything." Aigron replied a little tiredly, "Then just go ahead and do it. I have placed all my trust in you."

Seeing Aigron's tired face, Marquis Treville knew in his heart that he should end the conversation.

However, he didn't want it to end like this.

He had always had another thing hidden in his heart, but he had never had the opportunity to be alone with the young man before, so he didn't dare to say it.

Now, it was a God-given opportunity, and he didn't have to worry about Princess Teresa's ears and eyes beside him.

"Your Majesty, let's talk about something lighter." He changed his tone and the expression on his face softened.

"Well, is there anything else interesting?" Aigron asked.

Logically speaking, the Marquis should follow the rules of the social scene and first give hints about the mist, and then express his thoughts in a subtle way. However, the persona he created in front of others was that of an "outspoken soldier", so he I chose to go straight to the topic.

"After my son returned to Paris, he told me that you seemed interested in my daughter-in-law's sister, Miss Agnes?"

Aigron's heart moved, and then he raised his head and looked at the general, wondering in his mind what the other party meant.

"Well... to be honest, I think she's quite interesting to get along with. She's an interesting person."

"Very beautiful, too," added the Marquis de Treville, adding the real point. "Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a lively and funny personality, and she doesn't put on airs. To be honest, I have a lot of fun getting along with her."

"Yes, I think so too." Aigron nodded implicitly, and then waited for the other person's next words.

Now that we’re talking about this,

Naturally, the Marquis of Treville did not intend to go around in circles.

"You also know that my daughter-in-law has always hoped to bring you and Miss Agnes together, but it's a pity that things turned out like this." Like his son, the Marquis of Treville immediately pulled his daughter-in-law out. Shield, "However, even though you are married now, I still think that you and Miss Agnes are a perfect match-"

Aigron's heart suddenly moved.

It seems that the Marquis of Treville still hasn’t given up on his original idea?

He was happy to see this happen.

"Hey, what's the use of saying that? Miss Agnes is such a proud and conceited person. If I were unmarried, she might still consider it, but now that I'm married and about to have a child, it will definitely be hard for her to think about it. Accept me." He sighed rather regretfully, "Oh, what a pity, it's really pleasant to get along with her."

Since he was so hinted by Aigron, there is no reason why Marquis Treville should not continue.

"How could she not be willing? You are His Majesty, and your will is the will of the country. What qualifications does a mere little girl have to say whether she is willing or not?" The general replied with disdain and straightforwardness as a soldier, "No matter what, she No one lives alone in this world, there are always many things to consider.”

Aiglon frowned slightly. "Threatening her with her parents?"

"Threat? How can we talk about it? Why do you need to threaten..." Marquis Treville smiled disdainfully, "My in-laws finally escaped the storm of the revolution and returned to Paris to enjoy themselves. How can they accept the sudden loss of their peaceful life? If you can come to France, they will be more happy than anyone else to see Agnes become your intimate partner, so that they can continue their good life. "

Eggron remembered that Edgar had said similar words in front of him before - it seemed that this was what Marquis Treville himself meant.

He knew that the father and son must have their own motives for being so enthusiastic, but... they could also laugh at this loyalty.

"That's what I said, but what should I do?" Aigron asked in a low voice.

"Agnes seems proud, but she is very soft-spoken towards her family. Anyway, among the younger generation, I have never seen anyone who cares more about their family than her... So, after I return to Paris, I will do it As long as she nods her head, the rest of Alice's work will be easy to handle." General Treville expressed his thoughts.

"Alice wouldn't do that." Aigron replied flatly. He had met Alice in Switzerland before and had a little understanding of her character. He felt that Alice would never be a sister who sells her sister for glory.

"You do know Alice very well." Marquis Treville nodded slightly, "But don't forget, she is now my son's wife and the mother of my granddaughter. She has more things to worry about, as long as she Think of a way to finally get her to nod."

Agron suddenly felt that Alice was falling into a wolf's den by marrying Edgar.

But now he didn't have time to feel sorry for Alice. He still didn't quite believe that the general could do it.

Perhaps seeing what Aiglon was thinking, Marquis Treville smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, since you have placed such trust in me, can you also leave this matter to me? I will try my best. Made for you – it’s an honor for our family.”

Now that it's about this, what else does Aigron have to object to? So he nodded. "Well, I'll leave it to you."

After saying that, the two of them smiled tacitly.

"Your Majesty's vision is too high. Both Princess Theresa and Agnes are extremely outstanding candidates..." Marquis Treville sighed, "I think if you come to Paris one day, those ladies and ladies will I’m afraid we will be very disappointed, I’m sure you won’t take it seriously as a vulgar fan.”

"Actually... what I mainly care about is character." Aiglon replied with some trepidation, "Beauty is secondary to me. What's more important is the brilliance shining in their souls, which is dazzling and fascinating."

The Marquis of Treville was dubious about this. He also knew that he could not continue asking, so he ended this "elegant" topic with a loud laugh.

Next, the Marquis of Treville continued to implement his plan, and Aigron was happy to be at ease, hiding in this temporary foothold, admiring the French rural scenery.

Soon, it was time to implement the plan.

On this morning, Aigron brought his group of followers to the cafe in the town.

And just as they expected, there were many people sitting in the cafe at this time, and the one sitting in the middle was the mayor of this small town.

This is a short, fat man with a big belly and a red face. He is probably in his fifties or sixties. His face is full of wrinkles. Although he looks smiling on the surface, there are many deep wrinkles across his forehead, which makes him It looked more like a sad face. There was already a head of white hair on his head, and a pair of crying eyes under the gray eyebrows. Looking from the side, the outline of his cheeks gave his head a solemn expression of pain.

Aiglon walked in front of him while observing him.

Everything is so simple. No one would have thought or believed that such a big thing would happen in this remote little place - but it happened after all.

This is the place where Aiglon first appeared. As an emperor, this place is not grand enough, but now is not the time to ask for too much.

The mayor was very puzzled by this sudden group of outsiders. He stopped talking to others, and then turned to look at Aiglon.

Aiglon smiled and nodded to him, then made a gesture.

Immediately afterwards, Andre Davout, who was beside him, grabbed him by the collar and forcibly lifted him from his seat.

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Suddenly, the coffee cup next to the mayor fell to the ground and broke into pieces. This crisp sound woke everyone up. Others stood up from their seats and wanted to rescue the mayor, but someone next to Aigron took out a pistol. , a shot to the roof.

"boom!"

Amidst the loud noise, everyone was stunned.

"If you don't want to die, everyone should sit down where they are!" Andre Davout shouted, still holding the mayor in his hand.

The mayor's face suddenly turned pale. He looked at the group of uninvited guests in front of him in disbelief, and his original expression became even more sad.

He had already guessed something.

"King of Rome...God!"

"Thank you for remembering my title." Aigron smiled and nodded to the other party again, and then he asked in a friendly manner, "Then Mr. Mayor, I need to seek some help from you."

The mayor's body shook violently. "no no!"

Aigron frowned, and then Andre Davout punched the opponent in the chest. The old man convulsed due to severe pain and stopped struggling.

"I don't think I gave you the option to refuse cooperation."

Then, Aiglon asked others to take control of the cafe, and then asked Andre Davout to drag the mayor into a nearby room.

Perhaps because of the punch, the mayor stopped struggling and just looked at Aiglon quietly. His expression didn't have much fear, but an indescribable look.

"Sir, let me say it again, please cooperate with me. I only need your short-term cooperation. As long as you cooperate with me, you will be free after a few hours and nothing will happen." Aigron said in a good voice. Say politely, "But if you choose not to cooperate, I won't be so polite."

"You...you ran back after all..." The old man did not answer his question, but instead let out a sigh. It seemed that he was a little distracted, "France, haven't you paid off your debt yet?!"

"What are you talking about?" Aigron was a little impatient and was about to let Andre Davout punch him again to make the old guy be more honest.

"I have two sons." Before Andre Davout punched, the old man lamented, "Or I have two sons. They both served Napoleon, one in the Guards and the other in the Guards. He is a dragoon major. My parents passed away early. During the revolution, I lost my wife because of the plague. I lived alone in this remote little place and they were the only ones I had. In those lonely days, I collected each of them. I always take out a letter and read it over and over again. I remember every word they wrote. I can even feel their smiles and sadness when they wrote these words! Their letters were very optimistic at first and everything went well. But as time went by, they became more and more tired of fighting abroad. It was only because they had sworn an oath of allegiance to your father that they continued to fight with weapons... My eldest son died in Poland in 1807. I can't tell you. name, when I received the bad news, I just felt dizzy. All he left me was his medal and saber, but what use are these things to me? I want to see my son, I To this day I still don’t understand why he died for Poland!”

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Speaking of excitement, the mayor's eyes filled with tears, he almost choked and couldn't speak.

Perhaps it was because the sadness inspired from his heart was so deep that others were silent, and even Aigron did not stop him for a while.

Soon, the mayor took a few deep breaths and calmed down a little, "Finally, the empire fell, Napoleon abdicated, and my youngest son was sent home. He served the country for many years but did not receive any respect or praise. Just returned home like this, just because he was loyal to the emperor... He was very resentful about this, but I just felt very lucky. I didn't care how many medals my son got back, I just wanted to see him stay in front of me, Then I would marry a wife, have children, and die with me. But God would not show mercy to such a humble wish of mine! Just one year after abdicating the throne, he...he came back again, why the hell did he come back?!"

While talking, the mayor made a desperate gesture to express the pain and helplessness in his heart. This dramatic performance did not arouse anyone's ridicule or laughter, because they were feeling heavy and vaguely guessed. What will happen next -

"Unlike me, my youngest son cheered for this. He felt that he had a chance to get back the lost honor. This little fool also felt that he owed the emperor a favor. As a result, he was happy as soon as the emperor's conscription order came to us. He rushed over to enlist in the army, but because he was afraid that I would dissuade him, he ran away without even saying a word to me! What can I do? I can only wait at home, anxiously asking God and my late wife to bless this Fool... I can only wait, thinking about his safety all the time. I must read every newspaper. I go to the post office every day to inquire about the development of the war situation. I received his victory letter from Fleurus, Lini, good news comes one after another. I thought I should be lucky this time, right? As a result... After the damn Battle of Waterloo started, the whole country in France immediately mourned, and I, the unlucky guy, certainly had no good luck! Just one evening , someone informed me that my major son’s orderly had arrived at our place. I ran over to take a look and found this man riding on my son’s horse. I didn’t need to ask anything, I understood everything! He was dead and was A cannonball exploded into two pieces. Alas, just like that, my two sons, the most obedient and filial son, they all fell down, nothing was left! I stood there blankly, watching the sky turn into blood. The color was so bright that I wasn’t dragged home until it got dark... But I only have a house, so what kind of home is there!?"

When he said this, the mayor could no longer suppress his feelings and burst into tears, but others still did not stop him - if a father who had suffered the loss of his son twice was not allowed to grieve at this moment, then that would be It's too inhumane.

Aigron stood quietly in front of the other party, letting him cry, until after a long time, the mayor finally stopped crying again.

Then, he raised his head and stared at Aiglon with eyes still filled with tears.

"King of Rome, although my two sons died because of the empire, I don't hate you - you were just a young and ignorant child when the empire fell. How can I hate a child who cannot bear any responsibility? However, , as a father who has sacrificed his two sons to the empire, I have the right to tell you that I am tired and don’t want to be involved in all this anymore. I don’t want to let the original time go over again, let alone let another father do it. Suffering the same suffering!”

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

The mayor spoke louder and louder, and finally almost shouted to Aiglon, "Yes, I refuse to cooperate with you, and I don't want to carry out any of your orders. For me, the only monarch of France is His Majesty Charles X! What if? If you think I have committed a crime of treason, then you can execute me now. Anyway, I don’t have much time left, so I might as well reunite with my family as soon as possible!”
