Eagle’s Glory

【Glory of the young eagle】 【】

"Now, please leave immediately!"

Alice was uncharacteristically gentle and treated these uninvited guests very severely, partly because of her guilty conscience, but more importantly, she hoped to deter them in this way.

Her approach worked—and soon the sheriff made a decision.

Since the Marquis of Treville is indeed seriously ill now, it is meaningless to take any measures against him. Although the Marquis openly opposed the government, after all, he came from a famous family, and his brother, the Duke of Treville, was well-known. He is also a famous general himself, so he really cannot offend easily.

"Madam, considering the general's current physical condition is really bad, it is inconvenient for us to make too many inquiries—but, after all, we have a responsibility and we cannot neglect it, so..." After thinking for a while, the sheriff made the final decision Decided, "I will leave an investigation document, I hope you and your husband will fill it out truthfully, and explain clearly the whereabouts of your family recently. After the general wakes up, he will also need to explain his current political stance, and publicly declare that he is not involved into any action detrimental to the dynastic government—”

Although his tone was still bad, Alice was relieved after hearing this.

Allowing the general to stay at home means that the general has escaped the recent storm. He only needs to keep a low profile for the next period of time to ensure that nothing happens.

"I will." Alice replied sternly.

The sheriff didn't say anything more, he saluted his wife again, and then left with his men.

Alice watched their backs as they walked out of the house, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Married at a young age, did she ever think that one day she would summon up the courage to face the dynasty's iron fist in order to protect the dynasty's rebellion?

However, this feeling is not bad.

Of course, she also knew in her heart that the reason why she drove people away so easily was definitely not because she was so powerful and could scare the sheriff. The real reason was just because of the surnames of her natal family and husband's family.

"Even if there is a rebellion these days, there must be someone in the court..." She smiled wryly, expressing emotion in a low voice.

Just as Alice saw off the uninvited guest, the Marquis de Treville, who had fainted temporarily, gradually opened his eyes again on the bed in the bedroom.

"Father..." Edgar who was accompanying him almost cried with joy, "Are you all right?"

Seeing the tears in the corner of his son's eyes, the Marquis de Treville, who was extremely disappointed in his son, couldn't help feeling a little warmer in his heart.

Although this kid is ineffective, he still has a bit of filial piety.

"It's hard, but I can't die." He opened his mouth, and then spoke a short answer with difficulty, then he frowned again, and coughed violently, "This medicine is really powerful!"

Seeing his father coughing, Edgar quickly stroked his father's back, trying to help him breathe.

After all, the general has developed a strong physique during his years of military service. He stopped coughing quickly, and then looked at his son with gray and dull eyes, "You have to be calm, don't be surprised. Suddenly, although I was in a daze just now, I can still feel that Alice is much calmer and calmer than you! You should learn from it."

"When my father was in a coma, I would rather not have such a hard heart..." Edgar disagreed.

Then he changed the subject again, "Father... Now that you have woken up, I am relieved. You are weak now, so take a good rest first,

We'll take care of the rest. "

After speaking, he got up and was about to leave.

However, at this moment, the Marquis of Treville suddenly reached out and grabbed his son's wrist.

In all fairness, the general's strength is less than one-tenth of what it used to be because of his current weakness. Edgar can easily push him away, but his father's prestige is too deep in his heart. Although he is surprised, he dare not resist.

"Is there anything else you want to say?" he asked tremblingly.

"Tell me, during the time I've been out, have you wandered out again—especially with Princess Cadia?" Although the voice of the Marquis de Treville was weak, his eyes were still as sharp as usual, Edgar trembled with fear.

"No..." he replied subconsciously, and then, frightened by his father's stern gaze, he immediately changed his words, "Actually, it was only once or twice, after all, I need to relax occasionally... Don't worry, I covered it up very well. Alice didn't know it at all, besides, I followed your orders and never made her unhappy..."

He originally thought that he would be scolded by his father like a storm, and he was already prepared for it in his heart, but to his surprise, his father didn't scold him this time, but just sighed helplessly.

"It's really unworthy! Our ancestors of all ages just regarded seeking flowers and willows as an embellishment of life, but you regard it as life itself! Alas, you will be ruined by this sooner or later."

After sighing, he changed his tone again, "Forget it, I don't want to say anything about you now, you should cut off all other lovers first, and concentrate on pleasing Princess Kadiyang—"

"What?" Edgar never thought that such words would come out of his father's mouth.

Then, he was overjoyed—after all, this was the first time his father had acknowledged his love affair.

After he was severely reprimanded by his father last time and was almost whipped by the horsewhip, fear inevitably appeared in his heart, and he had to reduce his contacts with his lovers, and because of going to Greece, he was forced to temporarily cut off his contacts with his lovers. contact.

However, after returning to Paris, he was already suffocated and quickly recovered his former state.

While playing the role of a good husband and son at home, he tried his best to "repair the relationship" with his old lovers. Relying on his innate talent, he did a good job in this job.

He told his father that it was only "one or two times", but the actual situation was naturally far more than that, but now the Marquis didn't want to get into it.

Soon Edgar became suspicious again, because he knew that his father had no interest in caring about such things.

Sure enough, my father soon expressed his plan, "I don't care about you and your mistress. I asked you to maintain a good relationship with Princess Kadiyang for the sake of our majesty and ourselves. Now this In troubled times, we need more stable external relations and news channels. I will definitely be closely monitored recently, so I am imprisoned at home, and I must not act rashly. At this time, I can only rely on you——If you It's fine if you have the ability to run the family on your own, but you don't... so I can only rely on you to rely on your old lover's relationship. By the way, don't let Alice know, she may not be able to bear such a blow .”

"I understand..." Edgar concealed the joy in his heart, and then nodded seriously, "Don't worry, father, I know the proportion, and the princess is very dedicated to me, I can easily I get shelter from her, and if I want to know something, she will definitely go to help me."

"Is that child a boy or a girl?" asked the Marquis de Treville in a low voice.

Edgar was almost stunned by this sudden question, and soon he realized what it meant.

"The princess said it was a man, but I haven't seen it yet." He replied in a low voice, "He was not born when I left Paris, and later I temporarily lost contact with the princess. I didn't know until I came back. Fearing that he would be criticized by others, he secretly sent him to a family of small landlords in other provinces who had been favored by her. On the surface, he was treated as an adopted son by them. The princess would look for opportunities to visit him regularly. When we met before, I still wanted to Take me to see him together, but I politely shirk him."

When Edgar mentioned the child, his tone was very contemptuous. After all, although the child's mother was of noble birth, he was just an illegitimate child who couldn't see the light, and he never cared about it in the first place.

No matter in the previous era or in the current era, the nobles and ladies indulged in lust and lust, accidentally obtained the crystallization that was not blessed by God, and most of them would only be sent to the people to live in obscurity. Even most of them never knew who their biological parents were during their entire lives - Edgar certainly wanted to follow such a precedent.

Then he suddenly thought, why did the father suddenly mention this child?

"You...you..." He looked at his father in astonishment, and suddenly thought of something, "You want to recognize him as your grandson?"

"No! I don't want to! I hate this little thing that shouldn't have been born and has never been blessed by anyone more than anyone else." The Marquis de Treville said coldly, "But I must admit that this boy does It already exists, and it flows with your blood, as well as mine."

Then, he looked at his son sternly, "Listen, you and Alice are still very young, as long as you work hard enough, you still have a lot of chances to get heirs - if you have a son in the future, then this little thing will Throwing it aside, I don't even want to take a look, even if he is the queen's son, I don't recognize him."

Although he only spoke half of what he said, as his son, Edgar immediately understood the implication-if his and Alice's "efforts" did not bring about a son, his father would Figured out how to turn this unblessed little thing into a real Treville family member.

As a vagabond, Edgar doesn't care about heirs at all. In his opinion, it doesn't matter even if his legal children are daughters. It is indeed an unbearable consequence to see that he can only be extinct.

Alas, even a hero like Emperor Napoleon cannot escape this kind of thinking, otherwise why would he have to forcibly divorce Queen Josephine at the age of forty to marry a Habsburg princess who can have a son?

However, Edgar knew that things were not that simple, and he didn't care if such a thing happened, but what would Alice think?

His repeated betrayals have already brought serious disasters to Alice. If her father really wants an illegitimate son to inherit the family business in the future, it will undoubtedly be a heavier knife in her heart. Is it possible for her to accept it? ?

And Xia Lu, my daughter, what will she think then? Would she allow a "brother" whom she had never met to embarrass herself?

Thinking of this, he felt a little headache.

"Why, you still have the nerve to put on such an expression for me!" The Marquis de Treville snapped at his son, "If you give me a little credit, why would I bother to think so much? I have already said, as long as you and Alice has a son, and that little bastard can go as far as he wants, I don’t even want to look at it! So, if you feel uncomfortable, you should work hard for me! I’ve been desperate for your generation, and now I’m determined Educating the next generation personally, when the time comes, our Treville family will definitely sweep away the haze of the past few decades and move towards new glory--I only count on you to do this little thing now, if you can't even do this well, then Get out as soon as possible, don't embarrass your father and ancestors again!"

His father's scolding made Edgar's face turn red and turn pale, but he couldn't refute.

Indeed, he failed his father's expectations, but what can he do? If he doesn't like it, he doesn't like it. If he can't do it, he can't do it. He has no intention of living a life like his father's.

"Okay, Dad, I understand..." After hesitating for a moment, he nodded, "I will ask Princess Kadiyang about the whereabouts of this child and the name he is using now. Of course, I will not let him I know your plan. If Alice and I have a son in the future, I will pretend that nothing happened, and that he does not exist."

The father's stern expression eased a little, "Well, that's it. Edgar, don't let me down again."

Edgar nodded silently, he knew in his heart that this was the last expectation his father gave him.

Whether he likes it or not, he must devote himself to a career he doesn't like, because it is his father's decision.

After a moment of silence, the Marquis de Treville suddenly spoke again.

"How is Agnes doing now?"

Edgar, who was in a heavy heart, was caught off guard by this sudden question.

"She...she's okay. I haven't seen her since I returned to Paris, and she seems to be avoiding me on purpose."

"Oh, this stubborn and proud little girl..." The Marquis de Treville sneered. "It's okay, we still have time. When I talked with His Majesty, I clearly felt that he was quite interested in Agnes—"

"But she is obviously still in conflict with His Majesty." Edgar replied, "When we came all the way back, she almost never mentioned His Majesty once, and she turned a deaf ear when I deliberately mentioned His Majesty."

"Really? This explains a lot of problems—and we won't let her choose." The Marquis de Treville had a calm expression, and then narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Okay, Edgar, I'm going to rest, you go to accompany Alice. Remember, she is not only our reliable helper, but also the key to many problems... In any case, don't make her unhappy. Take out The only skill you are good at, son of a bitch, the rest will be dealt with after my body recovers."
