Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 471: 92, request

After Panos made it clear that he wanted to take his allegiance, the atmosphere between the two became much more harmonious.

For Panos, it was fulfillment of a promise and at the same time more ambitious personal goals; for Aegron, it was also a sizable gain.

Panos himself is brave and resourceful, and has a special identity. He also has a very good appeal among the Greeks. If he publicly expresses his allegiance to himself, it also means that he can further enhance his strength and prestige. Win-win.

Of course, showing allegiance alone is just the beginning, and there are more important issues that need to be clarified.

"What position do you want?" Aegron asked directly.

"Your Majesty, my loyalty to you is to fulfill my promise, not for personal status." Panos shook his head. "Whatever you want me to do, just tell me, I will definitely go through fire and water!"

That being said, but Aegron doesn't dare to treat him as a soldier, that is not only a talent, but will only chill the hearts of many people.

So, Aegron pondered for a moment, then finally made a decision.

"If you don't mind, I am willing to accept you as a member of the Knights and appoint you as honorary officer of all members of the Greek Knights. As a reward commensurate with your rank, you may have your own in the Principality of Ioannina. Territory, but I can’t confer you as a noble under my command for the time being, not because I’m stingy, but because I’m afraid of going back and causing a diplomatic dispute with the Kingdom of Greece… I’m sorry for that.”

Aegron spoke vaguely, but Panos naturally understood what he was talking about—if Aegron directly conferred his title, then the people on King Otto’s side would have an opinion on his father, which would then affect him. Father's future relationship with the king.

He was deeply moved by this level of painstaking work. Anyway, he didn't care about titles or titles. Now that the status given to him by Aegron was enough to satisfy him, he readily agreed.

"Don't apologize, Your Majesty, the honor you gave me has made me feel ashamed!" He lowered his eyebrows and looked at Aegron to show his deference, "Looking back on it, how much I have been to you from the beginning. It's disrespectful, and you once put forward some conditions that made you embarrassed during the negotiation. As a result, not only did you not care about these offenses, but you have always treated our father and son with such a magnanimous attitude... It's ridiculous, our father and son both paid in Greece Countless sweat, blood and tears have been disgusted and reviled by many people; and we have so much indebted to you, but we have always received kindness and support from you! People are destined to be different, you have The demeanor of a king is destined to be above the world, and this is something the younger generation of us here will never be able to match!"

Panos' remarks were sincere and sincere. Although Aigron was almost never moved by the words of others, he couldn't help but be slightly moved at this time - it seems that his long-term help finally allowed Panos and his sons I admire myself from the bottom of my heart.

Speaking of which, he did not completely trust his allies. On the contrary, he was ready to turn against his allies from the very beginning when he arrived in Greece, and he also secretly contacted the opposition of the father and son-but, the development of the situation made He doesn't need to make such a perfidious act, and he can naturally regard himself as a loyal ally all along.

Besides, the price he paid for Panos was not very high. Although he would become a senior member of the Knights in name, he had no money and nobody, and he had no actual command over the Greeks. The so-called "honorary officer" is just an empty title. As for the title of nobility, it can be judged and rewarded according to his actual merits. Don't worry now.

In this way, they have finalized all the matters that Panos put into his command in a short period of time. As long as Agron returns to the Principality of Ioannina this time, Panos will follow him and become his. servant.

The two are both monarchs and ministers, and they also have a kind of friendship. Panos is even more impressed by the demeanor of this young man, so they began to imagine the future in the next conversation, and they are no longer with each other. gap.

"Didn't the Count of Monte Cristo come with you this time?" Panos asked casually during the conversation. "I want to see him again."

"He didn't follow him, because I sent him to perform a more difficult task." Because Panos is now his own, so Aigron does not intend to hide him, "He has already gone to Paris to send an outpost for me. already."

Panos was a little surprised at first, but then overjoyed.

"Are you going back to Paris?!"

"Yes, it's coming soon." Aigron nodded, "I made an appearance in France before, and now people there are still talking about me, there are many people who hate me and grit their teeth, but there are also more people who miss me ...It only takes a storm to send me to the clouds, and I have to be ready for that."

Although Aigron said it very plainly, Panos was very emotional when he heard it. He was already imagining the scene of this young man riding a white horse to Paris-if he happened to be there at that time, wouldn't it be difficult in his life? Forgotten moments of honor?

He was suddenly thankful that he had taken refuge with this young man at the right time.

"Your Majesty, I know that as a Greek, I am not blessed to greet you as a representative of the French people, but I would like to help you on that day and witness that glorious moment!" he said solemnly. "Please grant me this honor!"

"You don't seem to have considered that I might fail and never return to Paris—" Aigron replied with a smile.

"No, I don't believe you will fail!" Panos shook his head vigorously, then replied, "If you can even lift up our broken country full of young people, I believe you will be even better in France. Unstoppable! The French people will love you and cheer you on."

Of course Aigron wouldn't take such words seriously, but who doesn't like to hear good things? So he also smiled and nodded, "Well, very good, Panos, then we'll agree, then you can drive with me by my side, and we'll enter Paris together."

After speaking, Aegron stretched out his hand to Panos, and Panos also stretched out his hand and held his hand tightly, and the two smiled at each other.

"I heard that Prince Otto is planning to propose a marriage to His Highness Haidai, what do you think?" Panos asked after shaking hands.

"I don't care much about it, I personally don't care about it." Aigron shrugged, "But Haide herself didn't want to, and Teresa took pity on her and helped her out. I couldn't help the pillow wind, so I agreed to them. Rejected Prince Otto."

Panos opened his eyes wide, and seemed a little disbelieving that Agron would listen to the opinions of the two little girls. "I thought you would have some inscrutable consideration, is that all it is?"

"What do you think of me? I'm not a complete machine, I only think about utilitarian issues..." For some reason, Aegron blushed a little embarrassedly, "I don't mind letting my side People are happier."

"Hahahaha..." Panos laughed, "I have to say that I am a little surprised, but because of this, I respect you even more, Your Majesty."

After he finished speaking, he didn't stop, and said goodbye to Aegron enthusiastically.

After sending Panos away, Aegron was about to rest when the door knocked softly again.

It's not over, isn't it? ? Aegron was instantly angry - Panos is his friend, so it's okay to disturb him. Don't rest, right?

He opened the door angrily, preparing to reprimand this ignorant person. Unexpectedly, after opening the door, he found that it was Hai Dai who was standing at the door.

No wonder no one stopped...

Seeing his full of anger, Haidai took a step back subconsciously, and then looked at him timidly, like a frightened little animal, without the "bearing" of a prince of a country.

Seeing her like this, Aigron's anger disappeared immediately, and he became amiable again.

"Haide, don't you want to rest? Why did you come to find me?"

"Your Majesty... I'm here to apologize to you." Hai De walked in, then closed the door gently, and then saluted him, "I was on the balcony just now, because of my indecent behavior, I've affected you... …”

It seemed that she was regretting her violent actions on the balcony just now, causing Aegron and Prince Otto to quarrel.

"There's nothing to apologize for, you didn't do anything wrong." Aegron replied cheerfully. "It's all the fault of that kid Otto being overwhelmed and doing such a thing to you—it's his own fault."

"But, for you, it is very important to maintain the harmony between the two countries?" Haide looked at Aigron cautiously, "If you and Prince Otto have a personal relationship, I am afraid it will affect this. I ...I'm afraid of being the culprit in it."

"If that's the case, I'll go to Otto now and tell him that I've changed my mind. I'm going to marry you to him in the future in exchange for him being obedient to me. What do you think?" Aegron pretended to answer seriously.

Haidai gasped and looked at him in horror, tears even oozing from the corners of her eyes - obviously, this was what she was most worried about.

Seeing such a big reaction from her, Aegron felt a little regretful.

"Sorry Haide, I'm just joking, don't take it seriously." He waved his hand quickly, then comforted her, "To be honest, you made a mistake - it's not that I need to please Otto in exchange for him. To maintain the harmony between the two countries; but he needs to please me, in exchange for me to make him a king! I gave him a crown, he owes me love, even if we don't talk about it, I will now There is a way to find my ally and launch a coup d'etat so that he will never be king! So, I don't need to ask for anything from him, I give him whatever I am in a good mood, and if I am in a bad mood, I will No need to give it to him, no matter what the result is, he should bear it, and do what I want honestly, understand?"

Aigron's remarks made Haide ignorant, but she could confirm one thing--His Majesty would not "sell" her to Prince Otto again.

She cried again, but this time it was moved tears.

"Thank you, Your Majesty... I appreciate you so much." She said while sobbing, "I have had enough buyers since I was a child, and I don't want to be sold again and again like a piece of goods. , I just want to have a home and live with my family... You can never understand my longing for a home because you have always had relatives around you and now a wife, but I see you and Your Highness Teresa How envious it is to be together...I want to stay with my family, I don't want to serve a new master ever again!"

Even the stone-hearted Aegron could not help but feel a little sad when he heard this.

He had never quite understood why Haide was reluctant to consider marrying Otto—after all, Prince Otto was about to become king, and he had such a prominent family background.

But from Haide's standpoint, this was not a "marriage", but a "resale". There were enough similar experiences in her nightmare memory, and she really didn't want to experience it again—especially here After finding the feeling of home.

She wanted to stay by her family's side and forget the disasters she had experienced in the past.

This is understandable.

Aigron thought for a while, then looked at Haide solemnly.

"Haide, please rest assured - although I am indeed using you, and will continue to use you in the future, but without your consent, I will never send you to any stranger, and you will never have to fear that the nightmare will repeat itself. We will always treat you like family."

"Thank you... thank you." Haide thanked Aigron with a crying voice, and then she looked at Aigron with hope, "In the future, if you go back to France... You and His Royal Highness Teresa will take me with you. Are you going to Paris?"

"Huh?" This question surprised Aegron.

He didn't expect Haidai to think so much at such a young age.

Maybe it was because of the ravages of fate that she matured earlier than her peers.

"You are the ruler of the Duchy of Ioannina—" Aegron thought for a while, then replied.

"Yes, I am the ruler, but what difference does it make if I rule this country...?" Haidé asked back. "Now, under your order, I entrust the ministers to handle the affairs of the state. If I entrust the country to the ministers in the future, it doesn't matter whether I am here or not...?"

Agron looked at her even more astonished.

"Did Chanel teach you this?" He suddenly thought of something and asked.

Haidai dropped her eyelids in panic in an instant, and her reaction was tantamount to saying the answer.

"I told her that I wanted my family, I didn't want to be abandoned again, and I begged her to help me find a way... She was against me at first, but after a few times of begging, she finally let go, taught me how to speak, and asked Your opinion... Your Majesty, I beg you, promise me!"

Aigron sighed deeply.

These **** are so soft-hearted, how can they do big things with them!

But if you think about it, it doesn't make sense...

"Let me think about it." Agron nodded, then motioned her to leave.

However, Haidé walked behind him, then stretched out her hand and put it on his shoulder, "I'll rub your shoulders, this is what Sister Chanel taught me... Your Majesty, please consider my request carefully. ...I beg you."
