Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 123: 11. Edgar

In the dark moonlight, Aigron and Edgar de Treville and the others walked together to the living room in the farmhouse.

According to their original plan, they were supposed to meet again tomorrow, but Agnes' unexpected behavior disrupted their plan. In this case, Agron decided to be wrong, and it would make no difference if they met sooner or later.

"Your Majesty, are you alright?!"

At this time, Chanel, who had been resting under the barn, also came out and hurriedly walked in front of Aegron.

"It's okay, Chanel, it's just an accident. Now that the accident has been resolved, you don't have to worry." Agron smiled and comforted her.

Then he looked at Edgar again, "Let me introduce you, this is M. Edgar de Treville, who just came from France to see me—"

Then he introduced Chanel to Edgar, "This is Miss Noel, she is my general manager, takes care of my daily life, and is also my absolute trusted person."

"Miss Noel, good evening." Edgar hurriedly stood up and bowed to Chanel, "It's a pleasure to have the opportunity to meet you—you have done a very great job, and I can have a great job for His Majesty. Thank you so much for taking good care of you."

Although Edgar's words were just flattering compliments, Chanel was overjoyed when he heard it.

She fled France since she was a child, and of course she didn't know much about the French aristocratic lineage, but from the surname of the young man de Treville on the opposite side, as well as his appearance and behavior, it could be seen that he must be a noble young man.

In the past, such a person would not have cared about her at all, but now he is flattering her with all respect...

This is an honor bestowed upon me by Your Majesty! Chanel thought.

In order not to embarrass His Majesty, she tried her best to control her little pride and excitement, and solemnly bowed to the young man.

"It is a pleasure to meet you, M. de Treville. I am very moved by your loyalty, and your Majesty's cause needs your full support."

After greeting each other, Chanel left the living room with confidence and went back to rest, while Aigron and Edgar sat around the table of the owner of the farmhouse, while others either rested or let the wind outside, and the whole farm returned to its previous silence.

The owner of the farm, Lieutenant Favre, brought his own brewed fruit wine and two glasses. Aigron poured himself a big glass, and then took a big sip, and heaved a sigh of relief.

The embarrassment when he was chased and fled by the girl just now has disappeared without a trace, and he has returned to his former calmness—of course, the mud on his body will not disappear so easily.

"I finally saw you... Your Majesty!" Edgar, who was finally undisturbed by others, saluted Aegron respectfully, in order to clarify the status of the two. "Long Live the Empire!"

"Please sit down, Edgar." Aegron smiled kindly to the other side. "I'm glad to see you too."

He knew that this was not the time to put on airs, that the Trevilles were now his most important supporters in France, and he needed to win over them.

"Your Majesty, I am very sorry that you brought danger because of my negligence... Please forgive my mistakes." Edgar apologized again.

"It doesn't matter." Aegron shook his head, expressing that he didn't care. "You can't control the impulsiveness of the little girl. It's normal for her to be suspicious when she walks with you. By the way, she shouldn't go to inform. ? I heard that their sisters came from a noble family in exile."

"Don't worry about this, neither Alice nor Agnes are interested in political matters. She just started because she was worried that you were endangering our safety." Edgar shook his head with a smile, " From what I know about Alice, even if she guesses a little clue, she won't go into it..."

This explanation Aigron also believes that he and Alice are newlyweds, and they seem to have a pretty good relationship. Will Alice report her husband after returning to China and send him to the cell?

Thinking of this, he also relaxed.

With the help of the dim candlelight, Aegron looked at Edgar carefully.

This is a blond young man, in his early 20s, with a handsome face, a pointed chin, fair skin and slender fingers, giving him an artist's breath.

At this moment, there was still a carefree smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he had never cared about everything.

He is indeed a very easy-to-please young man--if there is anything wrong with it, he looks a little too frivolous, like the image of a libertine in various dramas.

"I am very grateful for your family's support to me." Aigron kept his first impression deep in his heart, and then looked at each other with a sincere expression, "Please rest assured, Edgar, as long as you remain loyal to me, And cooperate with my instructions, then you will definitely have a place in the future of the empire."

Edgar didn't look very excited, just nodded.

"Your Majesty, my father and I are willing to dedicate everything to the empire in order to repay your kindness."

Aigron could see that although Edgar had been dealing with himself normally, he was always a little absent-minded.

It looks like a student who wants to be lazy and has to pull himself together to finish his homework.

What the **** is this guy thinking? Doesn't he know what he's doing?

"Does your father have anything to tell me?" Aegron suppressed his impatience and asked.

"My father did have something for me to tell you." Edgar hurriedly cheered up, "To be precise, he asked me to recite a list of people from all walks of life who he knew supported you. This will help you."

"Great, transcribe the list to me as soon as possible!" Aegron was instantly overjoyed.

"It's very late today. I'm afraid I can't remember clearly. When I wake up tomorrow, I'll write it down and give it to you." Edgar replied with a smile.

"No problem." Aegron was in a good mood, so he readily agreed.

It seems that General Treville is really careful, splitting the task into two parts, and letting the servant and son perform separately.

Well, this is indeed the man who does the big thing. He couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards the Treville family, and it was a lot more pleasing to the eye when he saw Edgar.

After the most critical issue was resolved, the two started chatting.

And this seems to have come to the field that Edgar is good at. He cheered up and talked to Aigron vividly about the customs of Paris and the anecdotes in the recent social field.

He talks about the grandeur of the Tuileries and the Louvre, and the elegance of those mansions in the Saint-Germain district, and ends with the Arc de Triomphe ordered by Napoleon.

"The Arc de Triomphe awaits your return, Your Majesty," Edgar said solemnly to Aegron.

"I will go back, but not now." Aigron sighed calmly, "I was only four years old when I left France, and I have almost forgotten everything there... But it doesn't matter, I will have a lifetime. Come and re-acquaint yourself with everything I once had, nothing less."

"Only when you come to Paris will this capital live up to its name and become the center of Europe, and France will be great again because of you." Edgar complimented the young man enthusiastically, and then he winked at the young man, " And then, I can take you to find the best treasures - and I promise you, no one knows better than me how to make you have fun in Paris."

"The best treasure?" Aegron was puzzled. "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, it seems that you are still too young." Edgar replied with a smug look, "Of course the best treasures in Paris are those ladies and ladies, who are either charming or charming, more than It's a world of difference from those German women in Vienna where you were before! You made the best decision in the world to run out of Austria."

Agron frowned, but did not speak.

What does this guy think he is running for?

"Paris is a big hive, where everyone is busy with their own pleasures and quarrels, and only the smartest and the most lovely can draw the sweetest nectar from this hive--" Edgar's A smug smile appeared on his face, almost frivolous, "Your Majesty, I'm not boasting, I'm definitely the best guide you can find."

"You mean, do you have a lot of romances?" Agron asked rhetorically.

"That's natural! Your Majesty, I'm one of the most popular young people in Paris." Ed nodded seriously, "To tell you the truth, I said goodbye to a certain princess before I left Paris. Let her accept not seeing me for the time being."

Perhaps because he was worried that Aegron would not believe it, he added, "You know, I am good at drawing, so every time I interact with Miss or Mrs., I will draw their most beautiful body and give them a copy. , a copy of my own collection, so I have accumulated a picture album. Every picture in this album is devoted to my painstaking efforts, my ideas, they are well-deserved art treasures, and I dare to say that this is the most valuable in Paris One of the treasures! Alas, it is a pity that such a treasure cannot be made public in the world, let alone be viewed at will, but if you want to see it, I can share it with you alone, and then you will experience the breathtaking Paris It's beautiful!"

When he said this, Edgar's face was full of smiles and passion, and it was a different person from the listless and routine look just now.

It turned out that all his energy went to these places... Aigron understood.

"You're still saying goodbye to your mistress before you leave Paris?" he asked.

"Yes, she is a very lovely and very gentle princess. If you return to France in the future, I can introduce her to you. Maybe you can kiss Fang Ze..." Edgar's face showed a happy expression. Smile, seems to be very proud of his own thoughts. "I think she would be very happy to meet you too."

Aegron sighed secretly.

He is not a serious person. He lives in the noble world. Of course, he also knows how everyone lives. He has already seen this kind of thing, and he has no intention of condemning Edgar. Edgar certainly didn't care about moral condemnation.

Even himself, didn't he seduce Sophie to fulfill her wish before fleeing? What qualifications do you have to criticize others?

However, now is not the time to talk about such a topic, by any means.

When talking about such an important topic, it is necessary to talk about Fengyue. Edgar is too lack of self-consciousness and lack of due tension. He has not really devoted himself to his career.

To put it simply, he is not expected to do big things - it is no wonder that even General Treville, who is so fond of him, dare not entrust his son with a heavy responsibility.

And wasn't he just newly married? That is to say, he was still in contact with his mistress before taking his wife's wedding trip on the road.

After thinking about it, this is also his private life, and Aigron decided not to pursue this issue anymore.

Although he had only met for the first time, from this brief conversation he had already seen who Edgar was - he was a playboy, an optimist artist, he lacked interest in the so-called imperial cause, just It's just a routine because of his father's strict requirements. All his interests and hobbies are concentrated on the prostitute life, and he doesn't even care about any personal ambitions.

If you don't have high hopes for him, he is a very pleasant person to get along with.

Ugh……

The Marquis of Treville lost his wife at an early age, and as a result, he neglected his discipline and spoiled his son into what he is today. He must be regretting it now...?

Aegron smiled bitterly in his heart.

But since he had promised the general that he would protect his descendants from wealth and honor, he would naturally keep his promise.

Edgar couldn't be a good statesman and soldier, but it was fine to be a courtier or a painter for the royal family—it was even a perfect fit.

Time to end the conversation.

Agron took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, it was already early morning.

"Edgar, it's getting late, we should go to rest, see you tomorrow - remember to write the list to me at that time." Aigron stretched out his hand to the other party.

"Okay!" Ed nodded seriously, then stood up dashingly and held the young man's hand. "Your Majesty, may God bless you!"

After letting go, Edgar was ready to leave.

Aigron suddenly thought of something.

"By the way, that Miss Agnes, why does she have such good skills?" He asked the doubts in his heart. "Who taught her?"

Although things started in a hurry just now, but from his professional perspective, Agnes absolutely excelled in swordsmanship.

"She has been fond of swordsmanship since she was a child, and she practiced diligently every day, and it is said that her talent is amazing. None of those young masters who boasted that they are good at swordsmanship can compare to her, and there are many people who have been beaten by her, so Your Majesty, you Don't be ashamed of what happened today, you've done a good job." Edgar replied, "As for who her teacher is, I don't know... She rarely mentions it, and I don't feel good about it. ask."

After he finished speaking, he shrugged his shoulders regretfully, "Tell me to tell me, what is a beautiful girl like Agnes, what's the point of learning swordsmanship? Detracting from his charm for nothing... It's better to learn to draw with me. Woolen cloth."

"You don't have evil thoughts about her, do you?" Looking at his expression, Aegron asked in surprise.

"No, of course not. Agnes is beautiful, but she is too strong, not my type. I still like sweet, gentle and charming ladies. Besides, she and Alice get along day and night, if I take action Then Alice definitely won't spare me...even my father will beat me to death." Edgar shook his head quickly, then laughed scornfully. "But Your Majesty, if you want to get to know her, I can help you..."

Agron frowned again.

"If there is a chance in the future, I would like to learn from her - a fair fight."

"Are you still angry about today?" Edgar asked with a smile.

"No, there's nothing to be angry about." Aegron shook his head, "I just want to defeat everyone who dares to show their swords to me."
