Eagle’s Glory

The Glory of the Young Eagle Text Volume 58, Repaying the Gratitude "But you should at least write a document and state your origins clearly, so that Agnes can have an explanation, right?"

Aigron's questioning and inducement soon had an effect. Bianca was speechless for a moment, and her eyes changed from firm to a little twinkling.

She felt guilty.

After all, from her perspective, her apprentice Agnes took huge risks in order to improve her treatment, and may even have brought a burden to the whole family, but she has been keeping secret, leaving Agnes unable to explain, so She owed her apprentice a great debt.

In this case, Aigron deliberately left a hole, so that she did not have to reveal the person behind the scenes, and only needed to confess the general information about her life. Under this condition, she was easily tempted - after all, this could at least appease her. Let go of your guilty heart.

Anyway, in her opinion, there is nothing worth avoiding about her life experience, and it will not cause trouble to anyone.

Aigron deliberately provoked her face to face in order to make her mentality unbalanced and more easily shaken.

Finally, after hesitating for a moment, she made up her mind.

"Okay, I can write, but this is not in exchange for my own survival, but for my apprentice - now, let go of your hands! Don't behave like this in broad daylight again!" "

However, her stern scolding did not have the expected effect. Instead of letting go, Agron continued to hold Agnes in his arms, and then asked the other side mockingly, "Do you have the ridiculous ability to negotiate terms with me?" Illusion? Please make it clear that I am showing mercy, not asking you to do something! I don’t need you to tell me what Agnes and I want to do. You should be grateful that you have such an outstanding apprentice, and then think Find a way to repay her kindness to you instead of continuing to cause trouble for her, do you understand?"

Bianca was so angry that her fingers trembled after being sneered at by Aiglon. It is conceivable that if she had a sword by her side at this time, she would have drawn her sword and rushed forward. Unfortunately, reality is not a fantasy, she could only angrily Looking at Aigron, he could do nothing.

There is no way, the gap between the two sides is too big now. If there is a swordsmanship competition, both Aigron and the master and apprentice can give it a try, but if they are allowed to have a verbal argument with Aigron, it is simply a one-sided massacre, no matter what the absurdity is. Aigron could pick it up at his fingertips, leaving them speechless.

Therefore, unknowingly, Bianca fell into Agron's trap and made a "concession" in order to make up for the guilt in her heart.

Bianca would definitely not see anything wrong with such a self-confession that did not involve an assassination plot.

But for Aigron, with such a self-confession, he could change the situation and fabricate a more realistic assassination plot, and work with Prosecutor Villefort to establish the case and point the finger at the Duke of Orleans.

He does not need to be completely convinced, as long as it is four to five points true, it is enough to incite people's hearts. After all, people tend to be curious and will believe in conspiracy theories that seem to be self-explanatory, and "The Duke of Orleans plotted to assassinate the King of Rome" is exactly what he said. It's such a legitimate conspiracy theory.

Moreover, the assassination of political opponents is not new in the historical memory of the French people. The three protagonists of the Battle of the Three Henrys all died at the hands of assassins; the royalists also planted explosives and almost killed Emperor Napoleon.

With such a precedent, is it any wonder that the Duke of Orleans, a descendant of Henry IV, attempted to assassinate the King of Rome?

Bianca does not understand the dangers of politics at all, so she is destined to become Aigron's accomplice unknowingly and become his weapon against political opponents.

Seeing Bianca's angry and helpless look, Aigron was so proud that he managed not to laugh out loud.

"Your Majesty..." Agnes naturally felt distressed when she saw the master's furious look, and the shame and shame in her heart at this moment made her unable to hold her head up at all. "You'd better pay attention to the impact..."

After she finished speaking, she tried to withdraw her hand, but Aigron was not going to give her this chance. He still held her hand forcefully, and the two of them got closer to each other in the stalemate.

"Agnes, I just have something to say to you - can you give me some time so that we can be alone together for a while?" Agron asked Agnes with a smile.

Although Agron seemed to be asking, his tone was full of unquestionable tone. After a brief hesitation, Agnes finally acquiesced to the reality and nodded gently - after all, whether it was the master's life or the She had too many things to ask of Aigron for her father and brother's future. She couldn't be tough on Aigron no matter what when she was in the wrong.

After Agnes nodded, Agron looked at the angry Bianca next to him with the contempt of a winner, "Okay, we have something to talk about now. You go back and write the document first. I hope to wait until we come back." Then I can receive it! Of course, you can also choose not to listen and refuse to cooperate, but if you have any conscience in your heart, think about how hard Agnes has worked to help you, and whether she has done the minimum The reward is up to you!"

After saying that, Aigron ignored Bianca and took Agnes away with him, leaving Bianca where she was so angry.

The reason why Aiglon acted so arrogantly was mainly to avenge the humiliation of being injured during the assassination. Of course, he also deliberately controlled his speed to avoid really irritating Bianca.

At this moment, he was one of the people who was most afraid of pissing off Bianca to death.

On the one hand, Bianca is an important "witness". He needs to keep this prop and work with his comrades to create excuses to attack his political opponents; on the other hand, she is also his most powerful influence on Agnes. Weapons - of course, the reverse is also true.

As long as he holds both master and disciple in his hands and uses them to control each other, he can take whatever he wants.

However, although he did this, he needed to use skills to disguise the threats in all kinds of sweet words to avoid touching their bottom line. At least so far, Aigron has done it well - after all, with his years of training, With the tricks he used to control people, it was too easy to control these two women who had no scheming intentions.

After taking Agnes away, Agron did not rush to speak, but took Agnes for a walk in the garden.

There were not many people in the garden, and no one dared to disturb Aigron and stayed away, so the two of them did not encounter any obstacles along the way.

But Agnes felt very uncomfortable. After all, being so close to His Majesty in broad daylight really made her ashamed, and she was even more nervous when she thought of His Majesty Theresa.

When he was in Switzerland, Agron only invited Agnes to dance with her, but Teresa had disturbed her face to face. Now here, there are Teresa's spies everywhere, how could he hide it from her? Agnes didn't want to suffer any unreasonable disaster because of Agron.

So after hesitating for a long time, she boldly asked Aigron, "Your Majesty, what are you planning to tell me?"

"Actually, it's not a crucial matter, Agnes, don't be nervous." Agron smiled and shook his head, and then asked the other party, "There are only two of us here, so you don't have to worry about anything, Agnes. Tell me the truth, do you think it's possible for your master to repent and come to cooperate with me to testify against those who were behind it?"

Agnes was caught off guard by Aigron's direct question and was obviously a little panicked.

Of course she knew that the master accepted the assassination commission just to repay Mr. Gaudan for saving his life. How could she betray her savior? She didn't dare to tell the truth, but under Aigron's sharp eyes, she didn't dare to lie like before. She blushed all of a sudden and didn't know how to answer.

"You're really not good at lying, Agnes...but this is also your advantage." Looking at Agnes's cute look, Agron smiled even more happily, "It's already this time, don't you think I don't Do you have enough brainpower to see the real situation clearly? Stop using clumsy lies to create bad blood between two people, it is meaningless."

Agron's smile was very contagious, but Agnes only felt pain and helplessness, because her lies could not be overcome after all.

The crime committed by the master was obvious. Even though she knew that she had no desire to be killed, she still wanted to try her best to retain the last glimmer of hope, but she didn't expect that it would be in vain in the end.

"Yes...I'm sorry, I lied to you, Your Majesty. Master, she has a too tough temper. She will not beg you for mercy to save her life. But even so...even so, I hope she can survive, so I delayed the time with lies, I'm sorry..."

Aigron listened quietly and didn't feel any surprise - because this was already obvious, but he just revealed it now.

"Actually, I knew this was the result from the beginning, but I still agreed to your request - no reason, just because it was your request. I can't stand you crying in front of me, because it will also make me heartache. Endless."

As he spoke, Aigron looked at the sad girl with pitiful eyes, and then he gently reached out his hand and touched her delicate white cheek, "But you don't have to be sad, since I expected this result from the beginning. , then I am not completely unprepared, I believe there is another way to get the best of both worlds, but this requires your cooperation."

As soon as Agnes said this, Agnes, who had almost collapsed, cheered up again.

"...What do you mean? If you have a way, just say it and I will definitely cooperate with you."

At this time, she no longer cared about Aiglon's intimate movements - or in other words, during this period of time, she had gradually become accustomed to such intimacy between the two people.

Seeing that his plan was going well, Aigron felt amused and moved on to the next step.

"Next, I will find a reputable, fair and honest prosecutor from Paris to help me thoroughly investigate the incident of Bianca's assassination of me. I have no doubt that the person who is not related to me Bianca suddenly came to assassinate me. It must have been instigated by my political opponents, so I want to get to the bottom of it, even if Bianca is completely uncooperative."

"Then what do you need me to do?" Agnes was not surprised by Agron's determination, she was just curious about what role she needed to play.

"It's very simple. The prosecutor will interrogate Bianca. If Bianca refuses to cooperate, then as a relative of Bianca, you will sign the interrogation document and declare that his interrogation is completely legal and agree with his investigation of the incident. "Effectiveness." Aigron said his plan, "This interrogation is very important to me and to Bianca. I think you can't be left out of it, and you can't be left out of it, right?"

"I understand." After thinking for a moment, Agnes nodded and agreed to this reasonable request. "I will do as you say-"

Agnes actually didn't understand that Agron's so-called "investigation" was predetermined, that the "fair and honest prosecutor" was his future lackey, and that the entire interrogation was just a formality. What role did she play in it? , which only increases the persuasiveness of the accusation and makes the whole story more real.

Similarly, Agnes's signature on the document will completely pin her to his side and become a ally recognized by the whole world - for Agnes, this is even more important.

Of course, even if she had figured out the "political implications", Agnes didn't care. In her opinion, as long as Aigron magnanimously spared the master's life, he was being kind to her, and there was nothing wrong with writing a signature for this.

In this way, the girl will go further and further on the road arranged for her by Aiglon, until she is stuck in the mud and cannot extricate herself - or in other words, she has actually been stuck in the mud for a long time, but she is just unaware of it.

Seeing that Agnes agreed to his request so easily and simply, without using all the excuses that Aigron had prepared, Aigron couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Agnes. Now we are working together to get the best of both worlds for this unfortunate assassination. As long as the prosecutor reaches a conclusion on the entire incident, I can also have an explanation with my people. ."

"Why do you need to thank me? What I have done for you is less than one percent of what you have done for me." Agnes replied nonchalantly, "If you have any other things, feel free to tell me. That way It would make me feel a little bit better!"

Looking at the girl who was high-spirited again, Aigron couldn't help but be infected by her vitality.

This was what he liked to see most in her.

The gentle breeze from the garden kept blowing the fragrance of the girl to the tip of his nose, making him feel relaxed and happy.

"How about turning one percent into one-tenth?" Aigron suggested.

"What?" Agnes hasn't reacted yet.

"ah!"

Then she let out an inarticulate exclamation—for her mouth was gagged.

The two of them were so close that she had no time to resist.

Or maybe I couldn’t resist in the first place.
