Flowers, Swords and France

Spring Festival Special-

January 27, 1870

Winter did not change its cold pace because of the arrival of the New Year.

Today's weather is still extremely gloomy, with thick, gray-black turbid clouds all over the sky, so that it seems to be evening even though it is morning.

The northwest wind howled and ran recklessly in the wilderness. The white snowfield swept everywhere with the wind, as if to turn the world into a white area. When the cold wind hit the woods, it brought the sound of swords and knives. It seemed to hold a sharp sword that could pierce through the tightly fur coat, not to mention the skin exposed outside. If anyone dared to stand in the middle, he would be cut by it again and again, and the pain was unbearable.

In the vast snowfield, the carefully repaired palaces of Fontainebleau were also covered with a layer of white coat, blending into the surrounding wilderness. Except for the snow-covered land and woods, the whole world seemed empty.

However, the walls of the palace blocked the raging cold wind, and the latest heating equipment made the rooms inside warm as spring, without fear of the power of nature.

At this time, Charles de Treville, the Prime Minister of the French Empire and Prince of Potsdam, stood by the window sill, quietly looking at the snow-white scenery outside.

This middle-aged man with golden hair, wearing a black coat, a thick cloak on top of the coat, and a Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor on his chest, looked dignified and calm, but his brows were slightly wrinkled, and there were slight wrinkles on his temples, showing that he had begun to enter the downhill road of life at the age of over 40. Only the sharp eyes that flashed from time to time in his still smart eyes could occasionally reveal that this powerful Prime Minister still had vigorous energy that was not inferior to that of young people.

In his sight, this white land was being harshly tortured by the cold wind, just like the empire that was now in his hands.

In the original history, 1870 would be a disastrous year for the empire that will be remembered forever. In this year, the emperor of the empire, under pressure from both home and abroad, finally chose to go all out and declare war on Prussia, and suffered a tragic defeat in the face of Prussian military might. The empire eventually collapsed in the disaster, and the emperor had to go into exile in Britain and then die in a foreign land.

However, in today's history, the ambitions of the Prussians have been destroyed along with Prime Minister Bismarck who committed suicide by taking poison. Charles de Treville also gained great merit and the title of Prince of Potsdam, which completely consolidated his control over the empire and gained unparalleled power.

Because of this victory, the empire is not facing military pressure at this moment. Although the British and Russians are still afraid of the empire today and are secretly seeking reconciliation and alliance, they are still friendly countries to the empire on the surface and are not ready to use force to solve the French Empire - although Charles thinks this is a matter of time, it is not the most troubling worry now.

The real worry does not come from the gloomy and terrifying external world, but from the internal world. There are too many worries that even he can't enjoy the wealth and prosperity and quietly enjoy his rest time in the Palace of Fontainebleau.

Since the reconstruction of the empire, according to the instructions of His Majesty the Emperor, the prince personally presided over the project of repairing the Palace of Fontainebleau, and during this time he also fell in love with this beautiful place.

About eight years ago, the Emperor passed away here. Then, according to His Majesty's will, the Prince appointed his only daughter, Nanali, as the Emperor of the Empire. Then, he took the opportunity to monopolize power as the regent minister, and let the empire fall into his control. After realizing his long-cherished wish of being in power, he also used this palace as his office without hesitation, and came here every winter to spend the winter.

However, in recent times, this quiet royal palace and garden could not relieve the Prince's mood as in the past, allowing him to sweep away the work pressure accumulated in his daily life. He has been frowning recently, and it is obvious that he is thinking about something in his heart.

Because they can see that the Prince is in a bad mood, the court attendants are careful to avoid the Prince. They dare not disturb the Prince easily, for fear of angering the Prince and bringing disaster to themselves, so that he can be immersed in lonely thinking alone.

In the gloomy and dark world, a middle-aged man in gorgeous clothes stood by the window and looked at the snowy field in the distance, as if time was frozen.

It was not until the door was carefully opened by the servants that the sound of footsteps made time in the room flow again.

A blonde girl in a white fur robe carefully walked behind the prince, then bowed her head and saluted respectfully. "Dad, I'm here!"

This girl is the eldest daughter of His Royal Highness and Princess Charlotte. Like her parents, she also has golden hair and blue eyes. Her beautiful features, coupled with the youthful vitality overflowing from her youth, make her a rare beauty.

With such beauty, and her father being a powerful prince, she has gathered some young people who flatter her even at a young age, and they are determined to get to the top with the help of the eldest daughter of the prince. But perhaps because the prince and the princess have spoiled her since she was a child, she seems to have inherited her mother's arrogance, and has always been rude to the people around her, and has never taken them to heart.

Because of her family, she was ambitious and wanted to inherit and carry forward her father's career so that the Treville family could continue to rule this powerful empire and even the entire European continent.

After hearing this crisp call, the prince finally woke up from his meditation. His empty eyes were filled with energy again, and then he turned back slightly, and his eyes fell on the girl.

"Good morning, Eugenie." The Prince greeted her in a low voice.

Then, a loving smile appeared on his face, "I have already read your love letter."

"Have you finished reading?" Eugenie's face showed a bit of joy, but also a bit nervous, "Then what do you think?"

"I never judge a document based on its literal meaning. I think what is more important is the motivation of the person who wrote the document." His Royal Highness became serious again, "Well, Eugenie, I would like to ask You, you said in your love letter that you wanted me to be careful about certain people, and that you wanted to assist me and help me eliminate certain dangerous people and eliminate their ambitions... What does this mean? "

"That's what you see, dad. I want to be given the important responsibility by you to help you jointly safeguard the family business." Eugenie bowed down again and said respectfully to her father, "If I have a motive, There is only one thing, and that is passion for the family and infinite loyalty to you and your career! ”

"Oh?" After his daughter spoke so eagerly, His Highness the Prince remained calm, "I don't doubt your loyalty to the family, but there are many things where loyalty is not enough - to complete a career, you need It is a calm reason and head, as well as absolute perseverance and indispensable experience.”

"I have the first two, dad!" Eugenie suddenly raised her head and looked at her father, her tone full of unquestionable determination, "As for the latter, if you are willing to trust me, I will have it right away, and Soon! I just ask you to trust me and give me the corresponding power. I will serve you with my incomparable enthusiasm and repay your kindness for raising me..."

"There are many ways to repay my kindness. There is no need to choose such a tiring one..." The middle-aged man sighed, "Believe me, my profession is really tiring, and it consumes all human resources. enthusiasm."

"Even so, I still feel that I have an obligation to do this." Eugenie had no intention of giving in. "I didn't make such a request to you just to show off my status or just for fun. I made it after careful consideration. Judgment, and finally believe that the situation requires me to stand up and fight for the interests of the family, so I have to make this request to you. "

"It's really touching." The middle-aged man answered vaguely without comment, and then suddenly asked, "Could it be that you envy certain people, so you feel that you can't lag behind others, so you made this request to me?"

This sudden question made Eugenie pause slightly.

The reason why she was so eager to serve the family was of course stimulated by Lianna and Alice, who had already borrowed money from their mother. However, in front of her father, she knew that she could not say this. She did not want her children to boring comparison.

"I don't mean to compare with anyone, because with my status, I don't need to compare with anyone at all. Everyone is our subject, right?" Eugenie raised her head slightly and said with an innate Lai Arrogant said with emotion, "It can even be said that it is precisely because of some people's preparations that triggered my sense of crisis..."

"Huh?" Charles was a little surprised, "How do you say that?"

"Dad, I have always been by your side, watching your every move, and I want to share your worries... It is precisely because of this that I understand your worries best." Eugenie lowered her head even more.

"What is it?" The middle-aged man was slightly startled.

"You are worried about your heir." Eugenie immediately replied, "You are worried that no one in the family will be able to inherit this great cause after you."

Although he remained calm on the surface, Charles was quite surprised at this time. He looked at his daughter steadily, as if he suddenly got to know her again today.

"Logically speaking, Clovis is an ideal heir. He is very smart, talented and handsome, and his intellectual demeanor is enough to impress anyone. But... he is a good man. He doesn't like to hurt anyone, even us. He always wants to be lenient to his enemies. Although such people are lovely and good people, they are not good at politics, because you said that people who engage in politics must be helpless at certain times. Love; and all Lelouch thinks about is himself and his little love affair, and he doesn’t even have enough respect for you..." Under the gaze of her father, Eugenie talked eloquently, "So you see, you two Each brother has his own major shortcomings, and no one can completely inherit your career... In comparison, I think Clovis is a more ideal successor, he just needs someone to help him. "

When she said this, her tone was a little cold, "He needs someone with a firm will to lead him forward, to practice your motto with a ruthless attitude, with a steel-like wrist and coldness." Treat our enemies ruthlessly. Only in this way can he inherit your career safely and allow our family to continue to rule this country. And I, I think I am the most suitable candidate."

"It doesn't have to go to this point." After listening quietly, the middle-aged man shook his head, "Clovis and Lelouch are both good boys. Although they are not enough to satisfy me, they are not necessary. a strong supporter.”

"Then your previous arrangement was not to make a choice between Lianna and Alice? You want to find one of them to be your heir's assistant, don't you?" Eugenie raised her head again, Facing his father with a challenging attitude, "Since you already have such thoughts, Come on, why don't you consider us? We are the legitimate daughters of our family and your heirs with the purest blood. Am I not a more suitable candidate than them? Please take my request seriously? , Dad, or give me a negative reason that I can accept!”

Such an uncompromising answer surprised the prince. Over the years, few people have dared to speak like this in front of him.

He looked at his daughter, and an idea suddenly occurred to him.

I thought she was too young before, so I haven't considered her yet, but now it seems... maybe it's not a bad idea to let her try - but not everyone can see their worries and their deep intentions. .

"Then who do you think the enemies are?" After a moment of silence, the prince asked in a low voice.

"The enemies are foreigners, republicans and revolutionary parties who are dissatisfied with you, careerists who covet your power, and those whose interests have been harmed by you. They have been tirelessly slandering you. Trying every means to undermine your prestige, "Inciting rebellion and inciting foreign governments to be enemies of you, we must have no mercy on these people and must be even more cruel than this winter, and I am someone you can absolutely trust, and I can show this cruelty without hesitation." Eugenie answered without hesitation. "As long as I treat them ruthlessly, Clovis will have time to be lenient and use his kindness to win people's hearts. After all, he is indeed a good man."

Eugenie's words made Charles nod secretly in his heart. He had never thought that his daughter had secretly thought through his mind so clearly.

However, before he could speak, Eugenie suddenly continued speaking.

"And, I think, our enemies are not just these people, our enemies are also the people around us, and those who others may think must be loyal to us!"

"What do you mean?" Charles was stunned for a moment, because he could hear his daughter's hidden meaning.

"Father, with your wisdom and your vision, can't you see? There are several branches of the Treville family, and some of them think they are the Duke's family, thinking that they deserve more in their lives. No matter what, if there is no If you had taken care of them, they would have been finished long ago! What's even more dangerous is that almost everyone of your illegitimate children is ambitious and only thinks about their own glory and success! Power has no due loyalty to us children of the family, only incomparable jealousy and resentment, as if we owe them something..." Maybe she remembered some unpleasant things, there was more in Eugenie's tone. Some hate, "Sooner or later these people will become a great danger to the family and the empire, forcing you and us to pay your romantic debts."

Such an unceremonious answer made the prince so embarrassed that he became a little angry.

"I don't see the danger."

"You can see it, but you may not want to see it." Eugenie sneered slightly, obviously dissatisfied with her father's evasive attitude, "Isn't the situation obvious? Their flattery and flattery cannot change this. If If they really know what is good and what is bad, then they should honestly obey the laws of heaven and serve us wholeheartedly. Lao, because we are your destined successors and your most outstanding descendants, they must do this. However, they have no respect at all and only want to compete with us. This shameless attitude has never been punished. , so that their ambitions are getting stronger and stronger, enough to make them the future enemies of the empire! Please face it!"

As his daughter explained mercilessly, Ciel fell into deep thought.

Although this was a bit unpleasant to say, in a sense, the prince knew that she was right. He had also watched those children grow up. How many of their thoughts could be hidden from their father? They are indeed very ambitious and ambitious. They all regard themselves as the best successors to their own careers and want to compete with the children of their own family.

However, Eugenie also misunderstood something because of her stubbornness and arrogance, as well as her natural hatred of these illegitimate children.

Yes, although these illegitimate children are all ambitious, they are not fools. They know that they are able to control huge power and unparalleled wealth now because of the power protection of the Treville family, so Of course they know that they must maintain the family's dominance no matter what, and they don't want or dare to bring everything to the point of falling apart.

So whether it is Lianna or Alice, they certainly want to be the best successors to their careers, but they will not deny the status of Clovis or Lelouch - just like Eugenie today.

Because he knew this, he did not stop his children from pursuing their own ambitions, and even secretly watched their efforts with interest, just like a parent watching his children do their homework.

In his view, too much ambition is a bad thing, but if a person has no personal ambition, what's the point of living?

Ciel turned his head, faced the window again, and looked at the land in the distance.

There are already Liana and Alice competing, and adding Eugenie will definitely not be a bad thing. The efforts they put in when fighting each other will make this family more stable as the cornerstone of its rule.

That's not bad.

The children have all grown up. Each one has his own will and desire, and has his own pursuits. Watching these children grow up little by little, the father's joy is truly indescribable.

However, this also means that I am slowly getting older.

Charles suddenly felt mixed feelings in his heart, and he quietly looked at the snow-white wilderness.

Until finally, he put away his selfish thoughts and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Well, since you are so active, then follow me for a while. Let me make it clear first. If you dare to complain to me about being tired once, I will ask you to go away immediately. Do you understand?"

Eugenie walked behind her father, then hugged her most respected father and buried her face deeply in his back, as if she wanted to express her respect for her father in this way.

"Thank you, Dad! I will complete all the tasks you give me, absolutely!"

In this way, Eugenie's petition was approved by His Highness the Prince, and she became one of his secretaries.

Of course, Eugenie had never heard of this ancient oriental saying, once the power is in hand, the order is followed, but she understood the logic behind it without hesitation.

Her first move was to move her bedroom to a room on one side of a long corridor. At the end of this corridor was His Royal Highness the Prince's bedroom and reception room at the Palace of Fontainebleau.

In this way, she can see everyone who visits the prince at the first time, and by the way...prevent those who don't like her from seeing her father.

Because of Eugenie's special status and the special instructions from His Highness the Prince, others did not dare to stop her actions. They could only follow her requests with a compliance attitude, and thus unknowingly achieved such huge results. The powerful Eugenie became one of the most powerful figures in the Palace of Fontainebleau.

And on a certain day this winter, two galloping carriages arrived at the Palace of Fontainebleau.

After passing the inspection by the guards, Lianna and Alice walked into the palace and walked to their father's residence along a familiar route. Recently, the Railway Federation they worked for had made breakthrough progress in the mainland railways, and they came here to report on their work—taking credit from their father at the same time.

Although both of them hated each other, because neither of them wanted to miss this opportunity to take credit, neither of them wanted to fall behind, and finally came together.

Because Ciel had given them permission to pass, no one blocked them along the way, and they did not forget to taunt each other as they walked along.

When they passed through the stairs and corridors and reached the last section, they were stopped by guards in front of the corridor.

"I want to see His Highness the Prince." Lianna spoke impatiently.

"Do you have permission to make a reservation?" the guard asked with a straight face.

"I never need any reservation or permission to see His Highness!" Liana became impatient, "Please get out of the way!"

"No entry without permission!" The guard blocked her in front of her, "Please leave!"

Their unaccommodating attitude made Lianna furious, but Alice watched with great pleasure.

"You are indeed unpopular, Princess Rikanicht," she said with a hint of sarcasm, and then walked forward on her own.

However, she was also stopped.

"Do you have permission to make a reservation?" the guard asked in the same manner.

"I...what permission do I need...? Are you crazy?" Alice's face suddenly turned pale, and then she pushed towards them. "Let me see His Highness! I don't believe he will refuse to see me!"

So Liana and Alice started pushing and shoving the guards, but how could they push the tall and strong guards? But because of her special status, the guards did not dare to use force and just stood in front of them.

As time went by, these guards became more shaken. They all knew that these two girls were definitely not ordinary people. If anything happened, they would be held accountable by the higher authorities, so they began to retreat step by step.

"Useless guys!" Seeing these guards retreating, Eugenie had to stand up and said, "Block them, don't retreat!"

"Okay, it turns out it's you!" Liana, who was already angry, became even more furious. "It turns out it was you who did the good deed! You actually mobilized the guards privately and dared to isolate His Highness the Prince. How brave you are!"

"What does private transfer mean? My father gave me the power to assist him in handling daily affairs." Eugenie sneered, "It is also my responsibility to prevent idle people from going to see him and protect His Highness the Prince's precious time."

"What?" Liana and Alice looked at each other in surprise. "When did the Father...give you such power?"

"This is not something you should know." Eugenie sneered and glanced at the two of them. "Okay, now I think you can go. His Highness the Prince is not in a good mood today and it is not convenient to see guests."

"Bah! Don't even think about it!" Alice certainly didn't take her words seriously. "Unless His Highness says he doesn't want to see me, no one can stop me from seeing him! You and your minions should disappear immediately, or I'll teach you a lesson!"

This bossy attitude unsurprisingly angered Eugenie, who had long been dissatisfied with them.

Her face flushed, and then she looked at them coldly. "I really didn't know you two had the qualifications to face me. If I were you, I would have been so ashamed that I would never dare to appear in front of people again. You can still run out with such a big face. I really admire your face..."

"What do you know, you guy?" Such a harsh attack made Alice's face flush.

"Let's find a quiet place to talk it out!" Lianna said coldly. "Dare you?"

Even though she felt that she had the upper hand, Eugenie didn't want to make a fool of herself in front of these guards, especially if the two uneducated people on the opposite side went crazy and talked nonsense, it would be a big deal - after all, she was hiding it from her father.

What's more, she really wanted to show off her victory.

"Okay? What's there to be afraid of?" She smiled coldly, "Follow me!"

She turned and left, and then the two followed her along the corridor and came to Eugenie's bedroom.

This bedroom is not big, but Eugenie always pursues comfort, so the furnishings here are very luxurious, and the desk is also full of letters and documents - since accepting his daughter's request, Charles has begun to give unimportant documents to his daughter to try to deal with, after all, she really needs to accumulate experience.

As soon as she came here, she opened her right hand to the desk as if showing off a treasure, "How do you feel, both of you?"

Lianna and Alice looked gloomy, glanced at her hatefully, and then walked to the desk, and were shocked to find that this was indeed a letter from their father.

"How could it be... How could it be..." Alice was surprised and disappointed, and couldn't help muttering to herself.

"Is there anything strange about this?" Eugenie sneered, "As my father's real daughter, I have the obligation to serve the family and contribute to my father's career without any complaints. This is the bond between father and daughter, which some people will never understand."

Such ruthless words made Lianna and Alice even more angry.

"Well, it's your business, I don't care, but now I want to see my father, please don't waste our time." Lianna hid her jealousy and said coldly to Eugenie.

"Didn't I tell you that His Royal Highness is not in a position to see guests?" Eugenie sneered, "Oh, you guys always don't understand what I'm saying, it's so embarrassing."

"You have no right to stop me from seeing my father!" Alice couldn't help but yelled at her, "I'm my father's favorite child!"

"When did you come up with this idea?" Eugenie laughed mockingly, "Who is your father?"

"What do you know, you little girl? Are you qualified to talk to me like this?" Alice was so angry that her face turned pale, "If it weren't for my mother's kindness, you wouldn't have a chance to come out, so don't get in my way here, go away!"

"If you have a little bit of brains, go away immediately, so that I can save you some face." Lianna also spoke gloomily, "Otherwise, I promise you that you can't afford the consequences."

The two sisters' ruthless words also completely angered Eugenie.

"You two bastards, are you worthy of talking to me like this?" She raised her eyebrows and pointed at the door. "Today is just a small lesson. I will let you know how powerful I am! Get out of here!"

How dare she talk to me like this?

Anger immediately burned in the hearts of Lianna and Alice.

Although the two daughters hated each other very much and were as hostile as fire and water, when they were despised by Eugenie, who claimed to be the "eldest daughter" and the real daughter of the Treville family, they couldn't help but feel almost the same anger.

This bastard must be taught a lesson.

The two of them looked at each other and recalled a "dispute" between the two of them before.

"What? Do you have to ask me to call the guards? I advise you to save some face for yourself, otherwise it will be ugly." Eugenie sneered again.

"Yes... there are a group of guards outside, but... it's two against one here!" Lianna answered with gritted teeth, and then suddenly rushed forward.

Eugenie was thrown down immediately without any preparation. Before she could say anything, Lianna, who was older than her, pressed on her. Her four legs seemed to be pressed together, making her almost unable to move.

Before she could shout out in shock and anger, her mouth was blocked. Alice blocked her mouth with her sleeves with anger, and then pressed her head, almost making Eugenie lose all ability to move.

Eugenie was folded up and bent her body, with her face parallel to the other two people. Lianna immediately rubbed her clothes, and then untied the opening, revealing a large area of ​​white skin on her shoulders and chest.

"Isn't this a furry child who has not grown up at all?" Lianna showed a cruel sneer, "Such a furry child dares to talk to me like this!"

"Uh...uh!" Eugenie was still struggling and whining. It was obvious that the other two people had no interest in figuring out what she was shouting.

Then, Alice reached out and touched the open neckline, while Lianna lifted up the skirt, then grabbed the ribbon at the waist and pulled hard, making the socks half off Eugenie's feet, exposing a large area of ​​skin on her legs.

Then, ignoring Eugenie's call, she touched the smooth and tender skin with her left hand, and then gradually stroked it deeper into it without mercy.

They had little experience, and the occasion was not interesting at all, so that this kind of caressing turned into an unspeakable torture. Eugenie had been pampered since she was a child, where had she ever suffered such hardship? Pain and shame brought tears to her eyes, which only made her two sisters happier.

Don't you dare to be so arrogant now? They sneered in their hearts.

With the pleasure in their hearts, they continued to caress. Alice grabbed Eugenie's slightly raised peaks with one hand, and then started to caress her. With a malicious sneer, she simply held the rising stamen of the bud, Then knead gently.

Their experience was not rich, but after adolescent children experienced such stimulation, the shame and pain they once felt slowly turned into a strange feeling. This strange itchy feeling gradually made Eugenie feel uncomfortable. It was so extreme that he felt as if he was trapped in a sealed box. It was very difficult to breathe, and even his tailbone was trembling.

"Um...ah..." Her angry shout turned into a slight hum, her breathing became very rapid, and the viscous liquid gradually flowed out from under the stamen.

This cry seemed to have infected the other two people. Liana and Alice seemed to recall a certain previous experience of their own, and then their faces became flushed, and their eyes were filled with mist.

Their breathing also became very rapid, and then they simply stuck to Eugenie's body, and then stretched out their tongues to lick her earlobes, and their hands did not stop moving, continuing to let Eugenie experience the discomfort. The torment of words.

Eugenie's consciousness was gradually blurring. The heavy breathing of Lianna and Alice blew on her body. She felt like she was being blown by the strong wind, and her whole body was getting hot because of it. Her earlobes and other places where she was being licked could not help but feel the sensation. The numb and itchy feeling made her feel like she was drifting into some uninhabited land.

No more, I can't bear it anymore... She lamented in her heart.

"ah……"

With a soft cry from her, it was finally over.

At this time, Liana and Alice gradually regained consciousness.

"Hmph, do you dare to call the guards in to drive us away now?" Lianna sneered looking at her blurred eyes.

"Stay here honestly!" Alice said to her mercilessly, "I will sue you properly in front of my father!"

As they spoke, they rearranged their clothes, and no one helped Eugenie do so.

"You..." Eugenie was already in tears at this time. Of course, what made her so painful was not just the physical pain, but the shame and resentment of being manipulated by two bastards.

Although her body was still weak and weak at this time, her eyes were burning with flames, as if they were about to engulf the two half-sisters opposite her, "I will kill you with my own hands! I will definitely dismantle you all." Eight dollars!”

"snort."

"laugh."

With two disdainful responses, they left the room.
