65, cruise ship
"This is the liquidation we just started, but it will never be the last."
For Egron, this time he was not just trying to take back what once belonged to him, but also to prove with actions that he already had the ability to liquidate old grievances.
Of course, he cannot move the enemies in France for the time being, but he can already show his power to enemies outside France.
Samuel Russo and his accomplices will become victims of this liquidation, and they will also use their deaths to demonstrate the resurrection of the empire.
Because I handed over the rest of the work to Andre Davu, Egron had freed up the next time.
Andre Davu was busy chasing Samuel Russo while questioning him, while Aegron became more leisurely.
He chose to dress up carefully, and then sneaked into Milan City under the pseudonym of his mother forged his identity and enjoyed the fun of ordinary tourists.
He walked along the canal of Milan and came to the dock area called Daena, a local man.
When Samuel Russo was arrested, Egron also brought people to the canal area. However, it was a dark and windy night, and he could not see the surrounding scenery at all, and he had no time to appreciate it if he had important things. At this time, when he came to see the flowers as an ordinary tourist, he saw an extremely prosperous and magnificent scene.
There are transport ships, large or small, passing through the canal sluice, orderly and busy; on both sides of the canal, there are various shops, hotels and galleries, lined up and lively.
On the river bank, there are also some young men and women dressed beautifully, holding hands or hugging each other, and talking sweetly to the slowly flowing river. This date is romantic and cost-effective. It is the favorite pastime for those young men and women who are short of money.
These prosperous scenes are probably nothing new to a citizen who grew up here, but for Egron, it is almost an experience he has never had before.
He was born in the palace since childhood. From the moment he was born, he was surrounded by a whole team of servants. The high-profile Madame Montesquieu (a descendant of the great jurist) in the upper class was responsible for his daily life. He enjoyed the luxury of the world but had never seen the prosperity of the people.
Later he went to Austria and was left in the Schonbrunn Palace. The Habsburg royal family had no interest in showing him the prosperity of Vienna to him.
After escaping, he either fled everywhere or ran to Greece where the war was incessant, and he had no chance to experience it.
Although Milan is no longer a land of the empire, this peaceful and prosperous scene has made Egron feel sad.
Paris must be several times more prosperous than here, right?
It must belong to me, only I can make it more brilliant, otherwise wouldn’t it be a pearl that is dark?
With this kind of reverie, Egron walked leisurely next to the canal embankment while patrolling the river surface with his eyes.
There are many small boats for rent on the canal, which makes it convenient for tourists to raft on it and enjoy the beautiful scenery, and Egron hopes to find the person he agreed with him here.
After walking along the dock for a long time, he finally found his target among the stoop boats wandering around the canal. It was a stoop boat that looked no different from the small boats around it. There was only a small flagpole hanging on the top of the canopy, with a piece of silk cloth hanging on it, and the name "Sophia-Meimingen" was written in floral characters.
The pink ribbon of the flagpole is firmly tied, floating on the canal, waving in the wind, like a noble lady swaying to her lover.
Seeing this scene, Egron showed a relieved smile to be honest, he was really worried that the other party would have missed the appointment before.
He walked to a bridge between the river bank, then waved the cane in his hand and signaled to the sauna boat on the river.
Not long after, the people on the stoop boat also noticed the young man. It slowly approached the embankment to the right and then stopped on the small berth.
Aegron immediately walked off the bridge and quickly walked to the side of the sauna boat.
He didn't bother to say hello to the boatman and shouted directly into the cabin of the sauna boat. "Miss, I'm here! Sorry for keeping you waiting for a long time!"
While shouting, Egron also plucked up his last vigilance, paying attention to the surrounding situation, fearing that he would fall into some trap.
Fortunately, he was just thinking too much. Under his gaze, the curtain of the stoop boat slowly opened. Then, a face with a expressionless but charming face appeared in front of him, and the autumn waves rippling in his eyes seemed to contrast with the canal under the boat, making people think a lot.
Oh my God! It's exactly the same as her!
Although he already knew this fact in his heart, every time he first met Princess Maria, he still couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
For a moment, thousands of thoughts made him almost lose his mind. After a moment, he came to his senses and then looked carefully at the cabin inside the curtain, Maria was the only one.
"What, why are you still standing there? Come up quickly?" Maria frowned and urged quietly.
"Sorry..." Aegron smiled embarrassedly, "Your beauty always makes me forget the time."
Maria gave him a blank look, then waved impatiently, and Egron jumped gently and got into the cabin.
After a slight shake, the sauna boat returned to balance, and then Egron lifted the curtain and walked into the cabin.
The narrow space made the distance between the two people extremely close, almost facing each other, and Egron could almost immediately smell the faint fragrance in the air.
He immediately made Sophie's fragrance in his mind and was worthy of being a twin sister, even his taste in this area was similar.
The atmosphere was so subtle that it was a bit awkward, and Egron suddenly didn't know how to speak.
Although Princess Maria is six years older than Aegron, she is only twenty-three years old at this time. It is the time when a woman is the most youthful and beautiful. At this time, the two of them are alone in such a small space, which is really subtle.
What's more, she was exactly the same as the woman he had been lingering with countless times. The memory and reality overlapped, making him even more distracted.
In order to break this embarrassment, he barely spoke, "Your Highness, why are you here alone?"
"Since I'm here to travel, of course I don't want to be frustrated. It's nice to see the scenery on the boat alone." Then, Maria sneered, "Of course, safety must be concerned, so my guards also followed me on the boat. If there is any guy who doesn't know how to offend me, they will be thrown into the river to feed the fish immediately."
Aegron pretended not to understand her words, but nodded with emphasis, "Don't worry, I'm a powerful swordsman, with me here, where do you need any guards? Even if I try my best, I will protect your safety..."
To be honest, he naturally could not have gone on a stroll around Milan alone. He also brought two guards over, but at this time, Egron asked them to wait on the bridge to avoid the scenery being a big deal.
Just as they spoke, the sauna boat continued to glide over the water, moving slowly forward with the other boats.
Through the tulle window of the boat, Egron could clearly see some men and women kissing in some cabins.
This kind of cruise is suitable for couples to live together. It is both private and quiet, and the scenery next to it is really a rare romantic experience for citizens.
However, the relationship between Egron and Maria is not yet known as the Wild Mandarin Duck at this moment.
Maria also noticed the movement next to her. She frowned slightly, then pulled down the curtains, and then looked at the young man coldly.
"Duke Lechstet, are you doing well recently? I heard you had a very sensational adventure before."
"That's indeed." Aegron replied slightly proudly, "After saying goodbye to you, I returned to France and showed up in front of the villagers. I think you must have seen it through the newspaper, but as a party involved, I can describe my adventure to you..."
Then, he eloquently told Maria about his experience back to France, and vividly described how his speech in front of the villagers inspired their enthusiasm and how he fled at the critical moment when the army was about to arrive.
Maria listened quietly, looking at the young man in front of her, with admiration in her eyes and a little worried about his experience of taking risks. However, when the two of them looked at each other after Egron finished speaking, she replied to the appearance of the ancient well without waves.
"Anyway, although the process was a little twists and turns, the result was better than I expected." Egron finally made a summary, "Thank God for blessings to make my actions go smoothly, and I can sit in front of you now."
"What a boldness." Maria commented coldly, "Why didn't you tell me all this before you leave? Are I so untrustworthy in your eyes?"
Aegron was silent.
He couldn't admit in person that he really didn't trust her enough. In a sense, if he told her before leaving, he would be confused.
His silence made Maria sneer even more.
"Haha, it's really helpless to think about it. I tried my best to help you, but you were on guard against me. It would be fine if you were on guard, but you were still deliberately playing tricks on me... taking my kindness as a joke! But it's normal to think about it. You have long been used to revenge for kindness and revenge, and this little thing is nothing."
Aegron immediately understood where her anger came from
She ran to Sophie, and immediately learned from Sophie that the letter she received from her was not actually "", and she fooled her.
Princess Maria, who is arrogant, must be very angry about it.
"Your Highness, you are saying this too seriously. In my heart, you are definitely my benefactor." He laughed awkwardly, trying to ease the atmosphere. "How can I not see you working so hard to me and His Highness Sophie? You know, my relationship with my mother is not good, so when I asked my mother before, I just took the chance of luck. I don't know when she will help me, let alone whether she is willing to really help me... So, when I ask you, I don't know that letter will arrive first, and I have no doubt about your sincerity. I know that only you will be in a desperate situation and stand completely on the side of my sister."
Aegron's explanation was reasonable, so Princess Maria's attitude eased a lot, but it seemed that she still had some anger.
The person who tied the bell must also be able to untie the bell. Since the matter has been caused by Sophie, then use Sophie as the key to solve the problem.
"Have you successfully met His Highness Sophie?" Aegron asked with concern and changed the subject.
"Of course, otherwise, I wouldn't have the face to come and see you?" Maria replied angrily. "Although that old guy is vicious and mean, he still has some shame after all. How could he not let his own sister meet his sister?"
Then she took out a thick letter from her cuff and handed it to Egron, "We talked for a while, she cares very much about you, and asks me to send the letter to you."
Sure enough...she really did it!
Aegron's heart suddenly accelerated.
He reached out to take the letter, trembling unconsciously.
The beautiful memories of the past once again surged into his heart, making him feel mixed emotions.
It was also at that time that he truly experienced the beauty of life.
He did not immediately open the letter because he felt that only by reading it alone in private could he be considered worthy of his wish.
"Thank you...I will always remember this favor." After storing the letter in my chest pocket, Egron raised his head and thanked Maria solemnly, "Your Highness, if you have any difficulties in the future, just tell me, whether I continue to wander or as the emperor, I will do it for you with the same enthusiasm, without any discount."
Seeing Egron's performance, Maria was quite satisfied, so her attitude became much more relaxed.
"I also met Metternier and handed him the letter you gave him."
"What did he say?" Aegron asked quickly.
This matter is about Kelisthel's future and is also the thing Sophie is most concerned about at the moment. Of course, Egron is also concerned about it.
"He didn't say anything, he didn't say that he couldn't, but he refused to give a word." Maria frowned, "This old slippery guy is probably hinting at you to give you some sincerity."
Aegron sneered, too.
"Is that so? Then I'll give it to him."
From the teenager's sharp smile, Maria seemed to smell something was wrong.
"What do you want to do?" she asked quickly.
