Eagle’s Glory

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

For a moment, the room fell into silence, with only Chanel's cry echoing, making the listener feel extremely sad.

And from her crying, Aigron vaguely understood something.

"Prince Eugène entrusted Chanel to take care of me before she left Bavaria, right?" He asked Princess Augusta in a low voice.

"It's not that specific. After all, no one knows whether Chanel can get close to you." His step-sister-in-law shook her head, "The prince just wished her good luck before leaving, and hoped that she would give her the best of luck if she had the chance. Give me some comfort - of course, judging from the results afterwards, she did even better than my husband expected, much better."

Aigron was deeply moved and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. "I can't thank you enough for this kindness... The world was so cold. In that situation at that time, he could still think of me and give me some help as much as possible, which is enough to reflect the noble character of the prince."

"He has always been this kind of person, so he has the respect of all of us." Regarding this compliment, the lady was not modest, but smiled and nodded. "You know, I didn't agree to this marriage from the beginning. It was just because my father wanted to please Napoleon that he facilitated this marriage. I had to fulfill my obligations, so I reluctantly agreed... Before I got married, I was filled with grief and felt that I was going to be a victim in my life. But I soon discovered that I was terribly wrong - I found that my husband was gentle and considerate, and had an upright and heroic personality. He was better than all those others. All princes and grandsons are strong! So I am grateful to fate for allowing me to become Madame de Beauharnais by accident. Everyone said that the Revolution was a nightmare, but for me it contributed to my happiness. "

As she spoke, a nostalgic smile slowly appeared on the lady's face, and her eyes became blurred, as if she was remembering the happy times she had spent with her husband.

Aigron and Teresa looked at each other, feeling a little embarrassed for each other.

It can be seen that the death of her husband in middle age is the most painful blow in the life of the lady. Although she seems to behave no differently from usual now and can talk and laugh in front of Aigron, the fire in her heart seems to have been extinguished. , only when we talk about the past again, will the light shine in our eyes again.

Eggron knew that in the original historical line, after Prince Eugene's death in 1824, Princess Augusta did not remarry, but lived alone for another 27 years until she died in 1851, and was even older than her children. A few of them live longer.

For her, the next 27 years of her life were just a lonely life of witnessing the death of her loved ones again and again, which was indeed not a wonderful life.

Although Teresa didn't know all this, she was also infected by sadness.

She glanced at the young man secretly. Aiglon, who had dressed up carefully today to visit his adopted sister-in-law, looked so handsome and cute. However, in this cute body, there was hidden a firm will and talent that ordinary people could not match. By marrying him, how could my happiness be any less than that of Princess Augusta?

What if I lose my husband in the middle of my life... Teresa shuddered when she thought of this, and she didn't dare to think about it anymore.

There was no way she would accept such a result. Just imagining it made her feel like she would never see any color again for the rest of her life.

Therefore, she made up her mind to do her best to protect Aiglon, help him realize his career, and let the marriage between the two of them continue happily until they are gray-haired and surrounded by their children and grandchildren. Farewell to this world one by one.

This is the life she wants.

Aiglon was not aware of his wife's psychological activities, and his attention was still on Princess Augusta. "Madam, I believe that your marriage to Prince Eugene is a good story, and it is also the most loving couple among the political marriages promoted by Emperor Napoleon. He may not have such motives, but there is no doubt that he facilitated your marriage. Happiness--"

"It seems that there is nothing wrong in saying that, but I don't have the chance to thank him again..." Madam said with a slightly teasing smile.

Then, Princess Augusta asked about Agron's previous experiences, including his experience growing up in Schönbrunn Palace and his experience in Greece for more than a year. She also lamented or marveled from time to time.

However, Aigron could also see that Madam was not really interested in these topics. She was just receiving him and finding topics to chat with him out of etiquette. And he was also quite familiar with this kind of social rules, so he didn't say anything. Instead, he described his own experiences in a humorous and ridiculing manner, and occasionally interspersed some interesting things he encountered, which made the lady laugh again and again, and the guests and guests enjoyed themselves for a while.

However, while chatting and laughing, Aigron also noticed that Madam suddenly seemed to have something on her mind, and her eyes were a little wandering, as if she was hesitant to speak.

Aigron thought that the lady wanted him to help - and out of his respect for his adopted brother, he was willing to do whatever he could to help his adopted brother's widow.

"Do you have anything else to tell me?" So Aigron took the initiative to ask, "If there is, please don't hesitate. I will do my best to do it, and I will be honored."

Seeing Aigron being so direct, Princess August no longer hesitated. "Actually, it's not a big deal, Aiglon. It's just that I remembered that my husband talked about you more often in the two years before his death - and, when he was dying, after saying goodbye to our family members, I even specifically told you about it.”

"What's going on?" Aigron suddenly became interested.

"He blessed me and the children, and also arranged his inheritance. He even arranged what relics and gifts his servants and friends should receive next, and he also wants to leave something for you." Madam. answer.

Then, the lady looked a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mention it to anyone else before, but I'm only telling this now because I had all kinds of concerns at the time, and I was hit hard when my husband passed away, so I didn't pay much attention to it while I was busy. This is about it..."

"It's okay, madam." Aigron smiled and shook his head, indicating that he didn't mind. "The person I am now is no longer the person I was back then. I am already sitting in front of you, and I am qualified to receive the gift from your adopted brother."

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Of course Aiglon could hear what the lady really meant - he was still in Schönbrunn Palace when Prince Eugene passed away, and his personal freedom and freedom of communication were greatly restricted. It was impossible for her to contact him. Over time, this It's normal for things to be forgotten.

Then, Aigron went straight to the point, "What exactly is he going to give me as a gift?"

"It doesn't look like anything important...just some documents." Princess August replied with a wry smile, "Before he died, he told me that he sealed some documents in a box. If you can't regain your freedom, , then let those documents remain sealed forever until they are forgotten by the world; if you can fly freely one day, then let me hand over the box together with the documents to you - that box, I followed his instructions and did not open it, but only shared it with his The relics are put together, and if you are interested, I can give it to you today.”

"I am very grateful to my adopted brother for his generosity, and I am very happy to accept his last gift." Aigron immediately replied, "No matter what he gave me, for me it is a gift worth keeping for a lifetime."

Aigron's words were not polite words. He did not expect that besides Emperor Napoleon, someone would still talk about him before his death. With this friendship, he would be happy to accept this gift no matter what it was.

"Well, let's go there together and I will hand it over to you personally." Princess August suggested immediately.

Aigron was not hesitant, stood up immediately, and then made a gesture to lead the way.

The madam stood up, then led Aigron out of the reception room and went upstairs. Although Theresa was full of curiosity, it was obvious that the madam only wanted to give her the "gift" in compliance with her husband's last wish. Her husband was alone, so she had no choice but to stay where she was with curiosity, waiting for her husband's return.

After Agron and Princess August walked up the stairs, they walked along the corridor to the door of a room, and then she opened a room.

Aigron looked inside and found that this room had desks and bookshelves, as well as a large number of documents.

"This was his former study." Princess August explained to him softly. “After he passed away, I kept everything the same.”

Although, she took the lead and walked in.

Aigron followed and walked in, and he quickly noticed that the room was dust-free, quite clean, and there was no musty smell in the air.

Although the lady did not say anything, it is conceivable that this room has been carefully tidied up and cleaned after the death of Prince Eugène - perhaps, the lady often comes here to reminisce about the little moments she and her husband used to get along with.

For a moment, he felt a little sad again.

Under his gaze, the lady walked to a cabinet and opened the cabinet with a key. The cabinet was filled with documents and manuscript papers. It seemed to be used to preserve the manuscript of Prince Eugène when he wrote his memoirs.

Amidst the creaking sound, she took out a small box from the pile of documents, and then handed it to Aigron.

"That's what he's talking about."

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Aigron's eyes suddenly became serious. He stretched out his hand and solemnly took the box from the lady's hand.

Aiglon looked at it from the outside. The wooden box was quite light and had no decorations on it. It looked unattractive. The box was also deliberately sealed with a gel seal. Apparently, it had not been used since it contained something. No one has opened it.

"Can I open it?" Aiglon asked quietly.

"Of course, it will be yours from now on - because it was originally given to you by my husband." The lady replied with a smile, "And since it was specially left to you by him, there is no need for me to give it to you again." Look, you can open it and take a look later. Although I don’t know what’s inside, I hope it can be of some help to you now. If so, my husband’s spirit in heaven will also be pleased. "

After saying that, she nodded slightly, then walked out of the room, leaving Aigron alone in the room.

Aigron deeply admired his wife's behavior and demeanor. If she didn't love her husband deeply, how could she have achieved this step?

After she left, only Aigron was left in the study.

The room returned to its usual silence for a while, and Aigron felt confused and somewhat expectant in his heart, as if he could hear his own accelerated heartbeat.

What can the deceased Prince Eugene have to give to himself, and he has to entrust him so solemnly before he dies?

His curiosity had been piqued.

He tore the seal off the gel, then pushed the clasp of the box open and opened the box.

The moment the box was opened, there was no jewels inside - it was not really any precious jewels inside, it was really just some paper.

Of course, even without that, Eggron wasn't disappointed.

He put the box on the desk and patiently opened the papers.

The passage of time has made them a little yellow, and the writing on them has become a little blurry, but this does not prevent Aiglon from

The handwriting on it is strong and strong, and it can be seen that it was written by a general who has served in the army for many years.

And the above content was even more beyond Aigron's expectation.

"Dear Aiglon, or His Majesty the King of Rome, when I write this manuscript, I can't tell whether I feel despair or hope at the moment, because I don't know if you will really be able to read it.

But fate is so mysterious and unpredictable that it makes people go up and down. One day they are in the clouds, and the other day they are doomed - I am a person who has experienced it personally.

Therefore, even if everything is so desperate right now, I still stubbornly hold on to a glimmer of hope. I look forward to the day when you can come in front of me or my family and get it from me or my family. It, and then use it to get what you deserve.

I don’t know how much effect it will have on you. Even now, I don’t expect you to risk your life for a hopeless cause. I just hope that after losing your country and throne, you, my poor My adopted brother, you can have the last remaining things that should belong to you..."

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Aigron flipped through these manuscripts quietly, and time passed unconsciously.

In an instant, Aigron suddenly understood.

That's right... Prince Eugene should know more than his mother.

During the imperial era, Prince Eugene had been serving as the Governor-General of Italy, acting on behalf of Emperor Napoleon to handle most of the affairs of the Kingdom of Italy——

He knew, and he was willing to tell himself that even when he was dying, he never thought about taking those things as his own or passing them on to his family. He firmly believed that they belonged to him.

Aigron raised his head and looked at the ceiling, and seemed to be looking at the spirit in the sky that might not even exist.

"Thank you, my adopted brother!"

Now that things have happened, he no longer needs to care about any treasures in particular - but he wants to get back everything he has lost, without exception.
