【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Chapter 996 52, Hidden Shadow

"So, what happened to what you did in private?"

Edgar looked even more nervous when he heard his father's question.

He carefully looked around to make sure no one was there, and then lowered his voice to answer his father. "To tell you the truth, I have already found out the whereabouts of the princess."

"What?!" Marquis Treville was suddenly shocked. "what happened?"

No wonder he was so surprised, because he never expected that Edgar could find out so much information in the palace in just one month.

When Edgar resisted his will before, although he lamented that the other person finally looked like a Treville man in the wrong place, deep down, he still felt that Edgar was just like a child who had not grown up. Just as willful and arrogant, it is impossible to produce any practical results.

Because of this thought, he reluctantly let Edgar go, hoping that reality would severely wake up this incompetent and dissolute son.

However, the actual development was completely opposite to his prediction, which was far beyond his expectation.

Seeing his father's surprised look, Edgar couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Just like a child showing off his achievements to his father, he kept talking, "As soon as I entered the palace, I deliberately approached Andre. On the one hand, Andre was in a crucial position and had good information. I could He pried something out of his mouth; on the other hand, once I show that I have a good relationship with Andre, others will naturally look high on me and regard me as a big shot worth getting to know...

Next, with the help of Andre's name, I deliberately made friends with the guards and officers in the palace, and then got along with them. We would get together to eat and drink together from time to time - of course, these were all my treats, and I was not interested in these cash-strapped people. As for the junior officers, I quickly became their good friend.

Then things became easier. Every time we drank and had a good time, I would make insinuations and inquire about some things about the princess. After several efforts, I really got the results. Several people were intoxicated by the wine. Complaining that he often has to guard a woman, it is extremely boring to waste time.

Things will be easier to handle next. I used these people as a breakthrough, and then they slowly obtained information about the princess and her whereabouts - according to the information I have now, she is under house arrest in Feng. She is in a country manor near Danbailu Palace, and her daily life is taken care of by someone, and she is not abused. "She is not closely guarded, but she is not allowed to leave..."

After listening to Edgar's story, Marquis Treville finally understood.

He really didn't expect that in this matter, his son would actually behave very well and skillfully, which was completely unlike his usual style.

"Only at this time do you look like a man in our family!" He couldn't help scolding his son again.

After scolding him, he warned his son, "You must not act rashly next time. I was sent to North Africa by His Majesty this time, and I shouldered a heavy responsibility. Whether I can fulfill my long-cherished wish, and whether our family can survive... The skyrocketing sky in the next twenty years... all depends on my trip, so there must be no mistakes! Think about it for yourself, if you make trouble at this time, how should I face His Majesty? How should I make achievements? "….

Edgar certainly understood his father's warning.

So, he took the initiative to comfort his father, "Dad, don't worry, I won't make a big deal out of it. Now that it's confirmed that the princess is still alive and living a decent life, I don't have to worry about it for a while..."

"Then what are you going to do next?" After hearing his son's answer, Marquis Treville finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still a little worried, so he asked his son.

"I plan to go to the place where the princess is being held to verify the information I have learned." Edgar replied softly, "If you are lucky enough to see her, that would be even better. I think she will too if she sees me. I'm very happy...Of course, don't worry, I know what's appropriate, and I won't act recklessly if the conditions don't allow it."

As soon as he heard his son's 'plan', the Marquis of Treville immediately became anxious, "Isn't this reckless? Don't forget, you are in the palace now! How can you walk around casually? What if you arouse suspicion? what to do?"

"I still have another way to deal with this, Dad." A proud smile appeared on Edgar's face again, "I will tell you another news that you may not know yet. In order to let Agni Agnes was able to serve him for a long time, so he ordered to allocate funds to Agnes to buy a manor here, and this manor happened to be very close to the place where the princess was under house arrest.

Since Agnes is moving here, as sister and brother-in-law, Alice and I must visit her and be a guest for a few days. Alice is a busy person, so how can she have time to take care of me? At that time, I can walk around in the name of Caifeng, and then I can wait for an opportunity to find her..."

He actually conceived such a rigorous plan... Marquis Treville couldn't help but be surprised again by his son's mobility.

He thought about it carefully and found that his son's plan seemed feasible - it was normal for a painter to wander around in order to collect scenery in the countryside. Even if he was discovered, he could explain it by saying that he was in the wrong place. As Agnes Brother-in-law and Andre's friend, the guards certainly wouldn't dare to embarrass him.

So, did this kid really succeed?

The Marquis of Treville was both unbelievable and a little suspicious. Although he could not say what was wrong, there was always a vague uneasiness deep in his heart. This sense of danger was what he had cultivated in the war for many years. ——Although it was not very accurate every time, it at least saved his life once or twice.

He frowned and thought about it.

"Edgar, isn't this going too well? Isn't it a little weird?"

"You sound like it's going well now, but you don't know how much hard work I put in!" Edgar replied, half complaining and half showing off, "Just acknowledge your son's ability."

"Edgar, no, stop, stop doing this plan of yours. Even if you succeed and meet the princess, so what? Can you change anything? What good will this do to you and me?" The Marquis of Treville put on a straight face and said to his son seriously, "It's not too late to stop now."

Facing his father's serious face, Edgar seemed to have returned to the previous quarrel between father and son. ….

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

He lowered his head guiltily, but shook his head firmly.

"No...Dad, I have already come this far, how can I be willing to stop? I...I have never disobeyed your opinions, but this time, please let me act according to my own wishes. She really I am the only one left, and how can I abandon her? Don’t worry, no matter what happens, I will bear all the responsibilities alone and will never involve you..."

"You...!" Marquis Treville's face turned black with anger. His body trembled a few times, but he finally sighed dejectedly.

You gave birth to him, you raised him like this, what else can you say? You deserve this! He said to himself in his mind.

This account is already like this, and we can no longer place any expectations. Let’s place our hopes on the next generation. He has decided that when he returns from North Africa with praise, he will officially start to train his illegitimate grandson. As for Edgar, he can die wherever he likes. He doesn't want to waste any more words.

"Okay... okay, remember your own words. Remember, no matter how much you try to escape, you are still a member of our family and my only son. You have the obligation to protect this family!" He warned for the last time! Got a son.

As soon as these words came out, the father and son were relatively speechless.

"Where are Alice and Charlotte?" After a moment of silence, the Marquis asked.

"They are in another suite, I will take you there - but Alice should be quite busy at this time." Edgar replied.

Then, he took his father out of the room and walked towards Alice's residence.

Because Alice was deeply trusted and used by the two majesties, after the palace moved to the Palace of Fontainebleau, she also became one of the best-paid courtiers. She had several suites composed of rooms, and she divided them into The living room, archives and office were used, and the room with the best lighting conditions was reserved for his daughter Xia Lu.

Naturally, Xia Lu also became the "second generation of the empire" besides the royal children, and the best-paid child in the palace - Alice wanted to use this method to cultivate a relationship with the center of power for her daughter from an early age. When she grows up, she will surely become the most eye-catching and enviable eldest lady and end the shortcomings in her life.

When Treville and his son came here together, Alice was still working hard at her desk as usual. However, when facing the arrival of her husband and father-in-law, she temporarily put aside the long series of official documents and greeted them politely. got them.

Although Alice and the Marquis of Treville had long been at odds with each other, they still maintained a good relationship on the surface. The Marquis was chatting with Alice and teasing her lovingly as usual. Holding Xia Lu in her arms.

Seeing her grandpa whom she hadn't seen for a long time, Xia Lu was naturally very close to her. She lay in his arms and tore around, making her giggle.

Looking at the happy family relationship between the grandfather and grandson, who would have thought that the seemingly loving grandfather was now mercilessly planning to hand over the family fortune to her "brother" whom she had never met? ….

【The Glory of the Young Eagle】 【】

Alice was smiling, but she was watching all this with cold eyes. Her heart had been cooled to the point of being made of stone, and she no longer had the warmth of the past.

After teasing his granddaughter for a while, the Marquis returned his attention to his daughter-in-law.

"Alice, I'm afraid you also know that I am leaving for North Africa soon..."

"I've heard about this. It's really hard for you to work hard for the country at such an age..." Alice replied quickly.

"For the country and your Majesty, this is what we should do." Marquis Treville replied nonchalantly, "Now that our family is indebted to your majesty's kindness, I should do everything possible for your majesty, both emotionally and rationally."

"Indeed, I only hate that my talents are limited. Although I have tried my best, it is still not enough to repay the kindness of your two majesties..." Alice also nodded with deep understanding.

The two people tested each other in this high-sounding cliché, but neither of them left any flaws.

Although he was facing Alice, Marquis Treville was still worried about what happened to his son just now. There was always a huge worry in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what he was worried about.

In the end, he could only turn his attention to Alice for help.

"Alice, after I leave, you will be the breadwinner of the family - I ask you to take good care of Edgar and Xia Lu as much as possible and prevent them from causing any trouble. Now you and I are in a key position, But you must not leave anything to say to outsiders... I think you should understand this."

The Marquis of Treville felt that as Edgar's wife, Alice and her family were now a grasshopper on a rope, so even if something happened to Edgar, she would try her best to cover it up - even if Not for the family, at least you should do it for yourself.

However, he certainly would not have thought of what Alice, who knew the whole story and was full of revenge, would do.

"Don't worry, Dad, I know the pros and cons better than you do." Alice smiled lightly, and then seemed to smooth things over for Edgar, "Also, don't underestimate Edgar too much. Now he has changed his mind. , is working seriously for the royal family. Although what he is doing is not very important now, but this is a good start, isn't it? He is already learning how to be the backbone of the family, and as my wife, I will definitely do my best. Just give him your full support.

I believe that only by working together as a family can we become a family that the royal family relies on and let Treville, a name that has been glorious for hundreds of years, shine in the world again, don't you think so? "

Of course it was, these words spoke to the heart of Marquis Treville.

Alas, if she were my son, what would I have to worry about? He sighed in his heart again.

It's a pity that this kind of emotion is meaningless. Fate has made too many big jokes due to a combination of circumstances.

The culprit of all this is of course his incompetent son, but a son is a son after all, and a daughter-in-law cannot be compared.

Let’s talk about other things when we get back, there’s no rush now.

"I'll be relieved if you can be so reasonable..." Marquis Treville let out a sigh of relief, "Alice, I hope that when I come back, you will bring me the grandson I have dreamed of! I am now That’s the only thing I’m worried about.”

"It depends on God's will, but I will try my best, Dad." Alice replied with a smile.

Let's go, let's go, old man, you'll be beyond our reach after you leave... There's nothing you can do, nothing can stop you!
