Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 331: 213, celebration banquet

"You'll see, and soon."

In Chanel's eyes, Edgar's smile was clearly a bit weird, but she knew that even if she asked, the other party might not answer her, so she could only endure her doubts secretly.

But just because she was a little worried, she couldn't help but warn the other party.

"Sir, I want to remind you that although His Majesty does favor Miss Agnes now, in his heart, Princess Teresa is also his fiancée, this is an unchangeable fact - that is to say, Her Royal Highness Theresa must be She is also our mistress, and we must respect her! No matter what you plan to do, I ask you to be careful and don't embarrass Her Royal Highness, otherwise Her Majesty will not forgive us."

Chanel's tone was solemn, but Edgar obviously didn't take it to heart. He just nodded lightly and replied perfunctorily.

"Don't worry, I naturally know what to do."

From Edgar's point of view, he has already offended Princess Teresa, and what he does will inevitably conflict with her, so it is meaningless to consider "proportion", it is better to turn passive into active, So that Princess Teresa can't take revenge on herself.

Of course, it is not easy to do this. He can see that neither His Majesty nor the people around His Majesty look down on him very much, which means that in the face of His Highness Teresa's anger, His Majesty has no motivation to come. save yourself-

Unless, I can become indispensable; unless, I can make my backer indispensable to His Majesty.

That's all he needs to do.

Although Chanel didn't know what Edgar was thinking, from the perfunctory attitude of the other party, she instinctively felt that something was wrong.

However, the situation has developed to this stage, and she has no choice but to hide her worries in her heart.

At the same time, there was a strong sense of caution and disgust towards Edgar in her heart, and she would never trust him for a second in the future.

Now that what he should say has been said, Chanel didn't want to stay in front of him for a second, so he left immediately, and Edgar politely sent her away, and then started his plan without stopping.

Just like that, time passed by minute by minute.

This day, Aigron has been inspecting his army everywhere according to the scheduled schedule, condolences to the front-line soldiers and the wounded, and boosts the morale of all the officers and soldiers, and because of his victory, wherever he goes, he has provoked everywhere. Cheers, everyone feels honored.

Soon it was night time, and the celebration banquet that was being prepared also started on time.

When night fell, the salutes in the fortress began to roar at the same time, with thunderous roars to announce the victory of the Bonaparte family to the world. There were free wines everywhere in the fortress. The soldiers had a hearty rest.

In the city hall where he lived, a celebration banquet was also being held at this time.

Compared with the "everyday fun" outside, the range of people who are qualified to come to him to celebrate together is naturally much smaller - only senior officers who are mainly members of the Knights, and advisors around him are eligible to participate.

Of course, Teresa, who had just arrived in Methorongion, was undoubtedly participating as the master.

At this time, the city hall, which had already been damaged, had been repainted, and the officers had put on new dresses and gathered together. Mighty and majestic.

The same is true for Aegron himself. He wears a black military uniform designed by himself, with the only Grand Commander Medal of the Knights on his chest. He is handsome and majestic at the same time. Seeing his appearance, no one will know him. Doubt, he has grown into a one-of-a-kind leader.

Although they don't have an empire in their hands yet, after a period of tempering, they do have a bit of an empire's temperament.

Candles were lit everywhere in the hall, so it was very bright, and the tables by the walls were full of delicacies, and a group of musicians recruited from the surrounding area played music - although they used harps and flutes, playing music. The music that came out was very different from the music of those orchestras in Paris, but no one cared about that at the moment.

The medals worn by everyone gathered together, reflecting the candlelight, rendering the hall with jewels, and the musicians and delicacies decorated the banquet in a decent manner-except that there were no ladies and ladies to help out, this scene was no different from the imperial era. High-society gatherings are pretty much the same.

Under the attention of the audience, Aigron and Teresa stood side by side and walked into the center.

In order to adapt to this occasion, Teresa naturally dressed up at this time. She was wearing a gorgeous palace dress, with a corolla symbolizing victory on her head, and a blue ribbon on her chest. The folding fan is like a noble lady attending a palace banquet.

Although at this time when all kinds of waste are prosperous, the costumes and the large ruins outside the house are not very harmonious, but who cares about this? Everyone could only see that Princess Teresa showed her due dignity and matched their Majesty.

Aigron and Teresa stood together, and then quietly listened to the roar of the salute outside the window, until the salute finally subsided, and he spoke leisurely.

"Everyone, I am very happy to be able to gather with you at the banquet to celebrate the victory. Although we have paid too much effort and cost along the way, no matter what we say, we are the winners now, and we have put our opponents on the line. Step on our feet, so we have the right to celebrate for ourselves!

However, while celebrating, we must also keep in mind that it is precisely because of our robes and the sacrifices of those unknown soldiers that we have won the victory with difficulty... Without them, we would not be where we are today. So let's toast these war dead, these warriors, and salute them! "

After speaking, he took the lead in picking up the cup.

The originally relaxed atmosphere was swept away, and suddenly it became solemn, even a little sad.

Since he came to Greece, Aigron has led his subordinates to carry out a series of battles. Although he has won victories again and again, he has also suffered large-scale casualties. Not only did the soldiers suffer thousands of casualties, but also A dozen officers who were members of the Knights were also killed.

If the death of the soldiers meant that Aigron and the officers only lost some "consumables", then the death of those colleagues made the hearts of everyone present feel grief.

After all, these Paoze once met together on the island of Monte Cristo, and some of them even became friends, but now their life and death are different.

People are not grass and trees. Even if they know that the death of people in wars is inevitable, when I think of Paoze's death, I can't help but feel sad.

However, they are both veterans who have experienced battles now, so after a short period of grief, they quickly recovered their emotions.

And Aigron continued talking after drinking a glass of wine.

"Although I am here with everyone today, we must not forget that one of us was not there, and he is Andre Davout, my captain of the guard and an outstanding warrior among us. He lived up to his surname. , has always guarded my safety with great loyalty, and at the same time fought our enemies to the death with courage no less than anyone else! At this moment, he remains in Nafpaktos, guarding the rear for us, he Although he did not participate in the fortress attack, he will always stand with us! Let's toast Andre again!"

"Cheers!" There was another enthusiastic response, and everyone present raised their cups to toast Andre Davout, who was left behind dozens of kilometers away.

Everyone present knows that although Andre Davout is not the supreme commander, he is His Majesty's captain and favorite general, and one of the most trusted people around him, so no one will doubt that he got it without being there. this kind of treatment.

After drinking another drink, Aigron continued,

"Although today is a celebration banquet, we all know that our journey has not ended here, Greece has not yet become independent, and we have not completely driven out the enemy, so we will face new challenges next, I hope everyone will not Be discouraged, use your original courage and loyalty to serve me - don't forget, Greece is only the first stop of our journey, only when we get through here can we finally go to France, to Paris, and for Paris cheers!"

"Cheers to Paris!" his cry was met with more enthusiasm.

Yes, when Paris was mentioned, the people present couldn't help but get excited.

This gorgeous and magnificent city is exactly what they dream of, and their empire can only truly be called an empire if it is established in Paris.

After this series of struggles, they won and developed confidence, and at this point they were all convinced that that day would definitely come.

With the help of Aegron's speech and the effect of alcohol, everyone in the hall was in high spirits, striving for a certain momentum of success - and this is exactly what Aegron wanted to see.

He held this celebration banquet in order to wash away the exhaustion from everyone, so that they would devote themselves to the unfinished struggle as before.

Seeing that the atmosphere of the people had been mobilized, he then looked at Teresa again, and nodded lightly to her with a smile.

Of course Teresa understood, she knew that this was Aigron's opportunity to show her, so she also picked up the wine glass from the side, and then solemnly paid tribute to everyone present.

"Dear warriors." She glanced at the people around her with grateful eyes, "I have been staying in Methoni for this period of time to handle the rear affairs for His Royal Highness, so I regret that I did not show up in person, Witnessing the glorious moment when the victory came... However, although I have not witnessed your heroic appearance with my own eyes, I have deeply felt the hardships you have endured and the sacrifices you have made for victory from His Highness's letter... …I know all of this, and I will remember it, and I will remember each of you!"

Teresa's gaze lingered on everyone's face for a while, as if she was looking at them and remembering everyone's appearance.

"...My Highness and I, and even our future children and grandchildren, will always be grateful for your dedication and sacrifice. What I regret most is that we don't have many gifts that can be used to repay your loyalty, but if we return Come to Paris and rebuild the empire, then we will give you all the rewards you deserve, and support the empire with you, let's toast to this day!"

Princess Teresa's toast was both warm and proud, so everyone responded.

"cheers!"

In this lively and cheerful atmosphere, Teresa focused her attention elsewhere.

For her, taking part in this ritualistic activity is part of her life, and she has been trained countless times since she was a child, and she can't go wrong at all.

Her gaze wandered among the crowd. On the one hand, she was giving her and His Highness's servants spiritual encouragement, but more importantly, she wanted to find Agnes.

She had sent Chanel to invite Agnes, and Chanel replied to her that Miss Agnes had agreed to attend.

Sure enough, not long after, she saw Agnes in the corner.

At this time, she was wearing women's clothes, but she was not dressed up, just wearing a simple skirt. Standing in an inconspicuous corner, she looked like a member of the musicians.

After she found Agnes, she immediately smiled and nodded to Agnes, and Agnes also noticed Her Royal Highness's gaze, so she nodded politely.

The two reunited after a long absence. When they first met, they had a good impression of each other, but unfortunately, the fate of the couple made this impression dusty.

Of course, for Teresa, she wanted to wipe the dust off.

She wanted to call Agnes to her, not to humiliate her, but to make her see clearly that her relationship with His Highness was a sure thing, and she hoped that she could retreat.

In essence, she also respects Agnes, so if the storm can pass, she is willing to continue to regard Agnes as a friend.

Of course, if Agnes was unwilling to change, then the situation would be different - how could a young girl not feel any anger when faced with such a thing?

For everyone's decency, and also to stop quarreling with Agron, Teresa consciously did not mention Agnes in front of him, as if everything had become history and had been forgotten by her.

However, this incident obviously happened not long ago, how could she really forget it?

Just when she was about to greet Agnes in front of her and communicate with her, she suddenly discovered that someone was standing in front of Agnes.

——It was Prince Charles, Aigron’s cousin.

what happened? Are they in a relationship? Or does he support it? Teresa instantly fell into doubt.

Then she glanced at Charlie.

Prince Charles, who has always had a keen mind, noticed this glance. Although it was only a brief glance, the coldness in it made Prince Charles feel a chill in his heart, and he was suddenly speechless.

It stands to reason that with his knowledge and courage, he has no need to be afraid of a mere Princess Teresa, but when Teresa came to Monte Cristo Island, there was a surprise attack, and he investigated the account of her own sale of gems. Grab your own "handle".

Precisely because Teresa has a handle on it, although he gritted his teeth in hatred, he would always feel a little guilty when facing Teresa.

But at this time, he crossed his heart and threw this guilty conscience aside.

"Miss Agnes..." He nodded with a smile and greeted Agnes.
