Eagle’s Glory

Under Aigron's order, Chanel quickly ran to inform the Treville couple, and they were also very pleasantly surprised, and immediately agreed to the invitation, which made them very honored, to attend the birthday party of His Majesty Napoleon II tomorrow.

That night, Chanel and the maid brought by Queen Autensee made the cake together, and time passed quickly.

At noon the next day, Aigron came to the lobby of the farmhouse. Although the conditions here are rudimentary, it has been carefully cleaned now, and all the metal objects have been polished brightly, waiting for his arrival.

When he appeared at the door, everyone was financially united, and their eyes were instantly focused on the young man.

Is this my current home? Although shabby, it seems to be satisfactory. Aegron thought.

Then, he showed a gentle smile, nodded to everyone, then strode in and sat on the main seat.

On his left sat Queen O'Donnell and his two sons, and on his right sat the Edgars and Agnes, and now they all smiled at him, celebrating the boy's one year old growth.

Aigron knew that he had nothing but a title now, and even this title was only recognized by a limited number of people in a small circle, so he didn't like to play the emperor's style.

But today, he unconsciously appeared proud and reserved, showing the majesty that a young emperor should have.

The taste of being surrounded by the stars and the moon is really comfortable.

After Aegron took his seat, Queen Aotangsi, the eldest among the present, spoke first.

"Your Majesty, I really didn't think that there would be a day when I would be able to celebrate your birthday... Today, I am really full of emotion. Over the past ten years, every time I think of you, I feel a little sad. I don't understand why God has given I gave you such a glorious birth, but why did I give you so many disasters." She was full of emotion and looked at the young man with complicated eyes, "But now I understand that the previous hardships may have been tempered by God. You, so that you can transform from an ignorant child with a golden spoon into a great man capable of taking on great responsibilities, so that you can truly take over your father's legacy. Today I come to congratulate you on your adulthood, and I wish you well in the future Everything goes well, and great achievements are made.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Aegron looked at Queen Aotangsi with respect, "I will never forget the help you gave me when I first started my career... You have proved you with your true feelings. I am not only moved but also gratified by the loyalty and love of the Bonaparte family, because it proves that the late emperor's love and care for you is not wrong. No matter what happens in the future, you are my relatives, I will protect you, and I will do my best to repay you, and if I come back to Paris one day, you will be the brightest star there.”

"At my age, what kind of stars are you talking about." Queen Aotangsi smiled, "But Paris is really nostalgic. I really hope I can return there to see it one day."

Until now, she still doesn't quite believe that the great cause of young people can be successful, at least not in her lifetime. But even so, she was very willing to believe and encourage this young man.

There are only embers left in her life, what else can she hope for besides wishing him success?

Then, Louis, who was sitting next to Queen Autense, began to congratulate Aigron.

"Your Majesty, I wish you a happy birthday! The greatest honor in my life is to rescue you in person, so that the new generation of our family can fight for a glorious cause again. I will use all my courage and enthusiasm to serve you wholeheartedly. At your service, get our family back on top of Europe!"

Then there's Charlie.

"Happy birthday to you, Your Majesty. I am so honoured that I was born to be your cousin, to be part of your great cause, and I sincerely wish you an early return to the throne for the Bonaparte family. Your name will be handed down forever. Although only we are by your side today, sooner or later the world will cheer for you!"

The two cousins' fervent congratulations made Aegron also infected and became excited.

Although he has always felt a little apprehensive about them, he appreciates their great ambition and their never-ending power of action.

The young people of the Bonaparte family are destined to fight for the career of their dreams, and they will never be reconciled to sinking into mediocrity.

"Two cousins, I thank you for your continued help. We still have too many trials and tribulations to overcome. I hope you will continue to be by my side and strive for a common goal." Excited, Aigron said to the two cousins, "The glory of the family needs each of us to strive for and maintain. Please continue to work hard in the future. As long as it succeeds, everything is worth it. The empire will never lack your position."

Next, it was the Trevilles' turn on the right.

"Your Majesty, I wish you a happy birthday!" Edgar de Treville paid tribute to the young man in an exaggerated high-pitched tone. "Our Treville family will remember the great kindness of His Majesty the Emperor, stick to our creed, and be loyal to you and your heirs forever. If the empire is rebuilt, then my descendants and I will hold a pen or a sword. , will be your most loyal ministers, fighting for the great cause of the Bonaparte family to the death!"

"Your Majesty, I wish you a happy birthday." Alice also spoke at the right time. "Although I have only met you for a few days, you have already left a deep impression on me. You are knowledgeable, strong-willed, both civil and military, and I have no doubt that you have the potential to become a great monarch. But because of this, I I have to persuade you that the kings should not be too superstitious about their own abilities, keep their eyes closed, and listen to the call of the people, because only the love of the people can make the king truly maintain the rule of the system... The French people have experienced too much Disaster, I implore you to love them."

"I will, Alice." Aigron nodded with a smile, "By the way, I also wish you longevity. I hope that if I come to France one day, the Treville family will continue to assist me in running this country. Maintain the love of the people."

"If you don't dislike it, I'm very happy." Aegron's teasing caused a slight blush on Alice's face, but she still nodded firmly. "I will teach my children to stick to the creed."

Next, everyone's eyes moved to the face of Agnes who was silent.

Agnes was obviously a little embarrassed. She obviously had no experience in dealing with such a scene, and she didn't know what position she should take here.

After hesitating for a moment, in order not to spoil the atmosphere at the moment, she still bite the bullet.

"Happy birthday, sir. I... I wish you all the best."

Seeing her embarrassed look, Aigron couldn't help laughing.

Agnes had made her own thoughts clear beforehand, so he did not force her to submit to her own thoughts.

Because she was afraid that her sister would be too embarrassed, Alice made a statement. "Agnes, I don't want you to be involved in the right and wrong of politics, so I wanted to hide it from you at first, but unfortunately you guessed it yourself... But even so, you don't have to be embarrassed, We can handle the matter between me and Edgar by ourselves, and you can act according to your own ideas. But - on a day like today, I hope you can show more respect to His Majesty, after all, you are already friends."

"Respect, of course I respect it!" Agnes replied quickly, "I just can't get used to calling your majesty. After all, it's a bit strange, isn't it? Mr. I'm about the same age as me, but you want to be respectful and respectful as your majesty! It's really hard to turn the corner. But I don't care who sits on the throne. In comparison, Mr. Memmingen at least...at least looks a little more pleasing than our current stinky old king."

"Ha ha ha ha"

Agnes' words caused a burst of laughter.

Agron felt that Agnes's words were the most sincere among everyone present.

"Don't worry, you will get used to it sooner or later, Agnes." Agron nodded kindly to Agnes, "Thank you for attending my birthday party, and I hope to invite you in the future."

"Okay! No problem!" Agnes made a cheerful gesture.

In this way, with a respectful attitude and tone, all the people present paid tribute to the young man, congratulated him on his birthday, and wished him an early success in his great career.

Just after their congratulations, Chanel and Queen Aotangsi's maid brought the finished cake up.

Aegron stood up, picked up the wine glass, and glanced at the audience.

"Cheers." He said calmly.

"Long live His Majesty!" the others shouted one after another, and then toasted His Majesty's birthday together.

Only Agnes raised the glass, but did not call him Your Majesty like the others, just pursed her lips and nodded silently at Agron with a smile, as a congratulations.

Then, people who were already in high spirits tasted the cake one after another, and Aigron's birthday party also came to the top.

===================================================== =

While people hiding in a small farm in Switzerland were celebrating the birthday of Emperor Napoleon II, in Vienna, hundreds of kilometers away, there were also people secretly blessing him.

However, compared to the cheerful atmosphere in the farm, the environment here is much more bleak.

In the manor belonging to Archduke Karl on the outskirts of Vienna, Princess Teresa stayed in the study as usual.

Next to her desk, there is a book of her own collection of abstracts. At this time, the book has been opened, and she just turned to the page where the note that His Highness wrote to her was stored.

She had read the words on it many times, and she could almost recite them back and forth, but the person who wrote them had disappeared.

She knew that today was His Highness's birthday, and she remembered even more that if... if this accident hadn't happened, today would have been the day when the court planned to announce the engagement of two people - although she took the initiative to postpone it later.

If... if these tragic accidents hadn't happened, everything would have been better.

Compared with sadness and anger, she is more worried now - she doesn't know how His Highness is now, whether it is safe or dangerous, but she knows that His Highness will face too many difficult challenges in the future.

On the road of escape, it is impossible for him to have too many people around him to protect him, and it is impossible for many people to give him advice, so that he will not take a detour and waste the freedom he has won after abandoning everything.

Her Highness needs her help.

However, there is no news of His Highness's current whereabouts. Even if he wants to help him, what can he do?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel sad.

God, please stop teasing me, let me know where he is sooner!

She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"His Royal Highness, happy birthday." After a while, she whispered a blessing that no one could hear, then picked up the pastry placed on the small plate next to it, and ate it in small bites.

If His Highness is still there, she is the one who is watching His Highness eat these cakes with her own eyes, right?

Thinking of the happy life she longed for came to an abrupt end, Teresa's heart couldn't help but feel sour for a while, and she finally didn't let herself cry out of grievance.

But she also knew that now was not the time to cry.

If you lose something, you can't cry if you cry, you can only find a way to fight for it and get back everything you once should have.

During this period of time, she has been behind closed doors. On the one hand, she does not like to appear in the outside world, and on the other hand, she is not willing to face those rumors.

In the past two months, there have been some unfavorable rumors or gloating whispers from the outside world, and every time I heard such rumors, Archduke Karl would be furious.

The old father was angry with his daughter's reputation, and hated that **** even more.

"Teresa!" While Teresa was still thinking, she suddenly heard an anxious call from the side.

Then, she looked to the side with a hazy gaze, and found that her parents were looking at her with a sad expression.

"You really...you really..." Archduke Karl pointed to the cake on the table, then looked at his daughter angrily, "Can't you forget that stinky boy!?"

"Sorry, Dad, I can't forget it, and I don't want to forget it." Teresa looked at her father stubbornly, "Do you want to teach your daughter to forget her fiance?"

"You still say such a thing at this time!" Karl waved his hand vigorously, as if waving a horsewhip, "It's all over, it's over!"

"Dad, whatever you say, I won't change my mind." Teresa still replied stubbornly, "Anyway, in my heart, His Highness is only going on a trip temporarily, and nothing has changed."

"...You've gone crazy." Archduke Karl frowned, "This kind of thing is not something you can decide."

"If you have to think so, then consider me crazy." Tears formed in the corners of Teresa's eyes, "I have never asked you anything willfully since I was a child, this time I just want to do what I want, because I have already sent The oath is over. You can either take me or send me to the monastery... I'd rather see the sun in my life than change my oath!"

Archduke Karl was furious, his chest heaving violently, but he couldn't do anything about his daughter.

He had never been so embarrassed in his life!

Madame Henrietta looked at her husband and daughter and sighed in her heart.

In the past two months, their father and daughter have had countless similar conversations, each ending in a stubborn quarrel.

Although she was just as angry at the boy's behavior as her husband, but her daughter was so insistent that she couldn't help but soften her heart after being deadlocked for so long.

"Would you like to wait?" she suggested softly.

"Wait for what?!" Archduke Karl asked back.

"His Royal Highness is also too concerned about fame and fame, and wants to revive the family's reputation. I can actually understand this feeling." Henrietta whispered, "Since Teresa is so persistent, let's see what he can do first. It's not too late to think about other things, maybe Teresa can be a queen in the future..."

"Bah! What a ragged queen, **** it! It's the French! It's white-skinned savages, a bunch of gangsters, bandits! They cut off my aunt's head back then, and they'll cut off Teresa's head in the future." Carl The Grand Duke replied loudly, "I didn't expect to receive a box one day in my gray-haired old age, containing her beautiful and hateful little head!"

Although the current atmosphere was tense and serious, Archduke Karl's words made Madame and Teresa amused and couldn't help laughing.

"Dad, please let me fight for my own happiness." After laughing for a while, Teresa became serious again.

Then, she looked at her father, and in a firm tone, she expressed her determination in front of them many times, "In short, I must go to see His Highness."
