"No, I think Sir Simond, you may have misunderstood. This manor was originally donated to you because everyone was grateful to you, so you don't have to have any psychological burden at all, and because this is the case for the time being,
There is no owner of this manor yet, so I currently entrust Miss Nia to take care of it."
Seeing that although Simond said he refused, there was a look of struggle on his face. The Duke of Orleans was naturally unwilling to give up such a good opportunity, so he persuaded Simond very sincerely.
As the Duke of Orleans' words fell, Simond's face became even more distorted. Of course, occasionally, Simond would cast his eyes on Nia who was standing aside. Nia was looking at Simond infatuatedly, with a look in her eyes.
Somewhat sad.
"Of course, we also know that Lord Simond is upright and upright, so the nominal owner of this manor will be Miss Nia. As long as Lord Simond can relax occasionally when he has time, he will live up to all of us.
I feel like it”
"Well, well, since the Duke of Orleans is so polite, I would be betraying His Excellency the Duke's kindness by trying to shirk it, so I would be disrespectful to do so."
With that said, Simond picked up the key on the tray, and when Simond picked up the key, Nia first looked at Simond as if he was angry, and then said:
"Since Sir Simond has accepted it, I will go to the manor to tidy up first, so as not to be rude when you go there. Please also ask Sir Simond to take over the manor as soon as possible. I will wait for you at the manor."
As she said that, Nia bent down and saluted Simond and the Duke of Orleans. It didn't matter that she bent down, she saw that a large area of snow-white skin was exposed, and from the angle where Simond was sitting, only a strip of snow-white skin could be seen.
, the charming ravine appeared in front of him, and Simond was a little uneasy now.
Seeing Simond's lecherous eyes, the Duke of Orleans smiled slightly. He knew that his plan was successful. As long as Simond could accept his gift, he believed that Simond would become a pawn in his hands sooner or later.
Later, Simond and Orleans chatted again, but during the chat, Simond was not distracted at all. Seeing this, the Duke of Orleans knew what he was thinking, and he immediately said:
"It's getting late. Miss Nia must have made arrangements in the manor, so I won't disturb you anymore. I will arrange a carriage to take you to the manor outside the city later."
Hearing Orleans say this, Simond's face was happy and he smiled:
"Thank you very much for your kindness, Your Excellency Duke. I will take the first step now!"
Simond stood up as he spoke, and Orleans also stood up and said to his son:
"Philip, please send Sir Simond off."
Saying that, Orleans turned his gaze back to Simond's face.
"Thank you Sir Simond for taking time out of your busy schedule to come to this humble residence. I also hope that you can come and be our guest next time!"
After the Duke of Orleans finished speaking, Simond bowed to him and then left the room under the guidance of Philip.

On October 2, 1789, Napoleon and his entourage finally arrived in Dijon after a long journey. At this moment, the entire Dijon had become a huge military camp. This time, in order to achieve the thunderous power against the rebels in Lyon, Louis X
Six not only ordered the Second Army stationed near Dijon to march to Lyon, he also asked the French army stationed in Nancy to send 10,000 people to Dijon to join the Second Army. In this way, plus the Second Army deployed by the Second Army,
Garrisoned troops in the surrounding area of Jon, this time to put down the rebellion in Lyon, Louis XVI gathered 50,000 troops.
Dijon is located in eastern France and was once the capital of the Duchy of Burgundy. Although the Duchy of Burgundy has disappeared in history due to a series of reasons and its territory has been divided up. But because of Dijon and the Habsburg family
The territories of Burgundy are located next to each other, so France has always maintained a certain military strength in Burgundy.
The reason for this situation is that the Principality of Burgundy was once a vassal of the Holy Roman Emperor, but it was also a subject of the King of France. Therefore, in history, the two countries once fought for the ownership of Burgundy, even if
Today, the successive kings of Habsburg still retain the titles of Duke of Burgundy and Count of Burgundy.
After sensing Dijon, Napoleon ignored his fatigue and immediately met with the commander of the Second Army, the Marquis of Crich.
Although Marquis Creech was mentally prepared, when he saw Napoleon, he was still surprised by Napoleon's youth. Although Napoleon was already twenty years old, he was a bit shorter than ordinary people.
Napoleon looked at least three or four years younger than his actual age.
Because the Marquis of Creech was stationed in Dijon all year round and had never met Napoleon during his short visits to Paris to visit relatives, the Marquis was very familiar with Napoleon's name, but had no impression of him personally.
But even so, Crich is still very interested in Napoleon. The Marquis has learned a lot about the thrilling events in Paris the past few days from various sources. Although it cannot be said to be all, there is still a good chance. For
Napoleon was able to quell the riot with the fastest speed and the toughest means in such a complicated situation, and the Marquis still admired it very much.
To be honest, the Marquis is not a person who judges books by their appearance, so after seeing Napoleon, the Marquis was only slightly surprised and welcomed Napoleon's arrival.
"Welcome, Napoleon, I hope you can show your abilities in this operation. You must know that the First Brigade is the most powerful unit of our Second Army. I hope you can live up to the French people."
and His Majesty the King’s trust in you!”
"Your Excellency Creech, I am here to learn from you. A general like you is the treasure of the entire Kingdom of France. I believe that I will be able to learn the best character of a soldier from you. At the same time,
I will also fight endlessly for the prosperity of the Kingdom of France!"
Seeing Napoleon's statement, Crich seemed very satisfied. The first reason for requesting someone from the royal family was because Crich received a letter from his wife. In the letter, his wife said that Napoleon was her younger brother whom she had already met.
I hope that Napoleon can come to Crich's command and gain merit. Another reason is Crich's curiosity about Napoleon. Naturally, it is impossible for a young man to gain such a great reputation in vain, and Crich really wants to see if Napoleon is.
It is really as magical as the rumors say. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian (qidian.com) to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
