Eagle’s Glory

"If she is useless, then she can't blame me for being ruthless, right? If she is sensible, she should know what to do!"\u003c/p\u003e

Because he was angry with Alice in his heart, Marquis Treville spoke in a rather unkind tone when he mentioned Alice. \u003c/p\u003e

The Duke felt something was wrong in his heart. After all, "turning" an illegitimate child into a positive person in disguise would have endless consequences and would most likely cause an internal split in the family. Apart from anything else, Alice and her daughter might just swallow their anger and watch a Did the bastard take away what he should have originally? \u003c/p\u003e

Although they are all just women, there are many women in the world who can accomplish great things, so they should not be underestimated. \u003c/p\u003e

However, from his brother's firm attitude, he had already seen that his attempts to persuade him were of no use. In the end, he had no choice but to agree to his brother's idea. \u003c/p\u003e

In fact, he also knew why his brother was so anxious - seeing that both brothers had entered the second half of their lives, and there was not much time left, they must seize the time to cultivate heirs without delaying any longer. \u003c/p\u003e

In the end, he could only secretly pray to God to bring his younger brother a real grandson as soon as possible to avoid possible divisions and disputes in the family in the future. \u003c/p\u003e

The two brothers discussed for a while, and at this time, it was finally getting light. \u003c/p\u003e

Looking at the gray sky outside the window, Duke Treville sighed, and then hugged his brother tightly. Tears flashed across his face that was usually emotionless. He knew that even if everything went well and all family members were safe, the two brothers might still be separated from each other in the next few years. \u003c/p\u003e

By then, at the end of their lives, will they really be able to meet again alive? He didn't dare to guarantee it. \u003c/p\u003e

But even though he was reluctant to leave, he still said goodbye to his brother, because some things had to be done. \u003c/p\u003e

"Victor, I have to go, please take care of yourself..." He said goodbye in his brother's ear. \u003c/p\u003e

Although his words were brief, they contained too much expectation and reluctance. \u003c/p\u003e

The Marquis was also extremely reluctant to give up. He hugged his brother tightly and blessed him for his long journey in the near future. \u003c/p\u003e

"I will,

Please take care of yourself...you must take good care of your family and don't make any mistakes. ”\u003c/p\u003e

Although the two brothers have lived to this age, they are already used to seeing storms, but when things come to pass, God knows what accident will happen. They may not care about their own life or death, but they cannot let go of their family no matter what. \u003c/p\u003e

"After I go back, I will send Charlotte over. Then you can do what you want. If you need me to do anything, just send someone to let me know, and I will do it."\u003c/p \u003e

After saying that, he released his embrace, waved to his brother, and left without looking back. He walked out of the back door and disappeared into the vast gray curtain. \u003c/p\u003e

The Marquis of Treville watched his brother leave by the window, and only after his figure disappeared did he look back. \u003c/p\u003e

Because he had stayed up all night, his eyes were bloodshot at this time, and he looked much more serious and fierce than usual. At this time, he exuded an aura, like a general who was about to join the battle. \u003c/p\u003e

That is the determination to do something big, and that is the will to succeed. \u003c/p\u003e

At this time, the hope of the family and even the lives of the family members have been entrusted to him, and he will never allow himself to make any mistakes. \u003c/p\u003e

Although he had not slept all night, he was in high spirits at the moment and did not even feel sleepy. \u003c/p\u003e

He snapped his fingers and summoned his valet. \u003c/p\u003e

Because he had to take care of the Treville brothers, the manservant also stayed up all night and was on call at any time, so he came to his side immediately after hearing the master's call. \u003c/p\u003e

"Master, what are your orders?"\u003c/p\u003e

"When Edgar wakes up, bring him to me immediately. I have something to tell him." The Marquis ordered. \u003c/p\u003e

"You... why don't you take a rest first?" Seeing the Marquis in such a mess, the servant was a little worried. \u003c/p\u003e

"I don't need a rest!" The Marquis interrupted him impatiently, "Bring him to me quickly!"\u003c/p\u003e

The Marquis lost his temper and the servant was speechless. He did not dare to say anything more. He quickly bowed and accepted the order, and then left in a hurry. \u003c/p\u003e

At this time, Edgar was still sleeping. In the middle of Mimi Lake, he heard a gentle knock on the door. Edgar and Alice were both startled awake. \u003c/p\u003e

Then, he learned of his father's call, so with full of doubts, he hurriedly changed his clothes and rushed to his father. \u003c/p\u003e

"Dad, you came to see me early in the morning. What's the matter?" he asked cautiously. \u003c/p\u003e

Edgar has always been a person without any fear, but only in front of his father, he has an instinctive fear. On the one hand, it is due to the power that his father has accumulated since childhood, and on the other hand, it may also be because he is not living up to expectations and cannot share his father's worries. of guilt. \u003c/p\u003e

In particular, at this moment, the Marquis of Treville looked even more terrifying because his eyes were bloodshot and his face was ferocious due to staying up all night. \u003c/p\u003e

"In a few days, Charlotte will come to our house to stay for a long time. You and Alice must take good care of her and not let her suffer any injustice." The Marquis of Treville was not interested in talking in circles with his son and went directly to the topic. \u003c/p\u003e

Edgar was stunned for a moment. \u003c/p\u003e

It wasn't because he found the matter embarrassing, but because he couldn't figure out why such a trivial matter deserved to be taken so seriously by his father. \u003c/p\u003e

"Of course, I welcome her! Although Charlotte is not as good as Xia Lu, she is very, very cute. I think the two of them will have a lot of fun together..." He smiled as he said it , trying to lighten the mood in the room. \u003c/p\u003e

However, the Marquis's face was still tense, "Didn't you find anything wrong?"\u003c/p\u003e

Edgar was a little confused by his father's question, "What do you mean?"\u003c/p\u003e

Seeing Edgar's lack of political sensitivity, the Marquis felt even more angry. However, he already knew what kind of virtue his son was, and there was no point in losing his temper. So he suppressed his anger and spoke to his son in a deep voice. Explain, "Your uncle entrusted his granddaughter to us. Don't you understand what this means? He may go into exile next!"\u003c/p\u003e

"Exile...?" Edgar also became nervous now, and then he remembered to analyze the specific situation, "You mean... he felt that the situation was not good and that the Wang family might fall, so he prepared to go into exile in advance? ”\u003c/p\u003e

The Marquis didn't say anything, and just gave him a look that said, "Finally you still have some brains." \u003c/p\u003e

Edgar suddenly fell into deep thought. \u003c/p\u003e

If the Wang family really falls, this will of course be a good thing for his family, because it means that the Bonaparte family may really successfully recover and then control the highest power - and that also means the rapid rise of the Marquis de Treville and his family. . \u003c/p\u003e

But from another aspect, the change of power must mean chaos. In such chaos, God knows what risks will arise, and he is not going to take any risks for the Bonaparte family. \u003c/p\u003e

But what can be done? His father was firmly on the side of the Bonaparte family, and he would definitely not give up such a good opportunity. Edgar was also a little hesitant for a while. \u003c/p\u003e

Fortunately, his worries were relieved by his father. \u003c/p\u003e

"You must have been able to tell by now that the unrest is imminent. My brother is already preparing for it. I should also prepare immediately." Marquis Treville broke the silence, "Edgar, wait for Charlotte After Te comes, take your wife, daughter, and Charlotte with you and leave Paris."\u003c/p\u003e

When Edgar heard that his father actually asked him to leave the center of this turmoil, Edgar's initial reaction was to be overjoyed, but then he sensed something was wrong. \u003c/p\u003e

"What about you? Why don't you leave together?"\u003c/p\u003e

"I can't leave because I have to complete my mission here." Marquis Treville replied coldly, "If you want to cut the cake, you have to sit next to the cake table, right? If I don't make any achievements during this period, , then how can I have the nerve to approach His Majesty to discuss my merits and reward me?"\u003c/p\u003e

His father's rhetorical question left Edgar speechless. \u003c/p\u003e

He knew that this was his father's decision and he was not allowed to refute it. He also knew that everything his father had done was to pave the way for his children and grandchildren. \u003c/p\u003e

For a moment, the guilt that had been buried deep in his heart suddenly came to his mind again, and he suddenly gained a courage that he didn't know where to come from. "Dad, if that's the case, then I'll stay and help you, right? As a son, I can't stand idly by when my father is taking risks."\u003c/p\u003e

The son's true feelings were revealed and the Marquis saw it. \u003c/p\u003e

Although this bastard son is useless, he still has true feelings for him after all. \u003c/p\u003e

As a father, how can he not love his son? \u003c/p\u003e

"Don't make trouble for me now. You didn't work hard to cheer up before, so what's the point of saying these words now? Edgar, don't question my decision. If you take them away, it will be better for me than if you stay here." It will help even more. After you leave, I won’t have anything to worry about."\u003c/p\u003e

His father's cold words made Edgar even more ashamed and heartbroken. \u003c/p\u003e

He suddenly deeply hated his absurdity for so many years. If he could focus a little more on his father's career, he would definitely be able to share his father's worries now... However, the exaggeration and laziness that had become a habit for a long time had long since It sapped his spirit of cheering up, and even if he felt guilty, it was already hard to come back. \u003c/p\u003e

"Dad...I'm sorry..." He kept apologizing to his father and almost cried. \u003c/p\u003e

"Okay! Don't do this." In order to cover up the reluctance and sadness in his heart, the Marquis interrupted his son rudely, "If you really feel guilty for me, give me a grandson as soon as possible. We used to Isn’t it agreed? You bring me a grandson, and I will set you free. Edgar, that’s all I ask of you, don’t let me down! I don’t have many years left in the rest of my life. , please hurry up and fulfill your promise to me."\u003c/p\u003e

"I will try my best." Edgar quickly explained to his father, "It's just that recently Alice said that her body has not recovered yet and she doesn't want to bear the pain of childbirth for the time being, so although we sleep in the same bed, we seldom..."\u003c /p\u003e

"Why, Xia Lu is almost two years old and she hasn't recovered yet? What kind of body does she have? Is she more valuable than the queen?!" Upon hearing this, the Marquis became so angry that he said, "I think she is deliberately making excuses. , she doesn’t want me to get what I want!”\u003c/p\u003e

"How could it be? Alice respects you so much, it's impossible for her to think this way." Edgar quickly interceded for his wife, "Dad, please give us a little more time, I will definitely work hard."\u003c/p\u003e

"Humph." Marquis Treville snorted coldly, not bothering to explain to his son. \u003c/p\u003e

His precious son was full of intelligence, but even the people he shared the bed with couldn't guess what he was thinking. This was really disappointing to him. \u003c/p\u003e

You are unkind and I am unjust. Since Alice is resisting his will in private, he no longer has to worry about it. \u003c/p\u003e

"It just so happens that I have something else to tell you. I have already told your uncle about your illegitimate son." So, he said coldly. \u003c/p\u003e

"What?" Edgar was surprised. \u003c/p\u003e

It wasn't that he felt ashamed because his illegitimate son was revealed. After all, this kind of thing had long been common in the upper class society, but he sensed a very dangerous fact from his father's words. \u003c/p\u003e

"Are you going to let him take away the illegitimate child?" he asked tremblingly. \u003c/p\u003e

"Yes, he has promised me that when he leaves France, he will take the child away. In addition, he will also find a way to put the child in the name of a distant relative, so that he can have our surname openly. ”\u003c/p\u003e

After a pause, he added, "If Alice still doesn't give birth to a son within a period of time, then I won't wait for her. I will take this 'distant relative' over and teach him and train him personally." , then I won’t have to worry about having no successor.”\u003c/p\u003e

His father's words made Edgar completely panic. \u003c/p\u003e

He didn't mind letting an illegitimate son take over the family business. It was his son anyway, but... But how would Alice and Xia Lu, mother and daughter, deal with each other then? \u003c/p\u003e

Just thinking about it made him feel numb. \u003c/p\u003e

Although he was the initiator of all this, he did not have no feelings for the mother and daughter, and he never thought about breaking up with them. \u003c/p\u003e

"Dad...isn't this not good? Why don't you think about it again?" He boldly persuaded his father. \u003c/p\u003e

"What? Are you here to pretend to be a good person for me at this time?" Marquis Treville glared at his son fiercely, "Do you think I want to do this? There is nothing I can do! In the end, all this is because of you It’s useless, it doesn’t live up to expectations!\u003c/p\u003e

If it weren't for your absurd indulgence and unwillingness to work hard for the family, why would I have to worry about the next generation of heirs? I'll just wait! But just because you're useless, I can't afford to wait any longer! \u003c/p\u003e

If you weren't weak and incompetent, how could you not even be able to control a little woman, and ended up letting her shirk her in every possible way, but refused to let me get my way? ! \u003c/p\u003e

Until now, you have put yourself out of the matter to intercede, as if I am the only one who did the bad things... Edgar, is it enough for you to make me mad to death? ! ”\u003c/p\u003e

Edgar was so frightened by his father's scolding that he didn't dare to say anything anymore. He just lowered his head and apologized to his father. \u003c/p\u003e

He also knew in his heart that his father's accusations were justified. \u003c/p\u003e

Isn't he the initiator of all this? \u003c/p\u003e

Everyone has reasons to blame his father, but he definitely does not. \u003c/p\u003e

After venting for a while, the Marquis finally felt a little relieved, and then he gasped and stared at his son. \u003c/p\u003e

"I don't want to blame you anymore now. Find that child quickly and hand it over to your uncle. Then you take them and leave Paris."\u003c/p\u003e

"Where...?" Edgar summoned the courage to ask. \u003c/p\u003e

"Go to the border! Go wait for that man!" the Marquis roared in reply. "You must be nailed to him like leeches!"\u003c/p\u003e
