Chapter 607 Intrigue

However, what William didn't know was that Napoleon was also very uncomfortable now. Compared to Ernst, Lucien's wound was even more shocking. His entire left arm was cut off in the waist, and a five-centimeter-deep hole was left on his stomach. The bones at the wound were directly exposed to the air, and blood was sprayed out in large quantities.

Even Napoleon, who showed his tough face, had tears in his eyes at this moment.

"Lucion, you can't have anything to do. You are the eagle that descended to the Bonaparte family. You still have a bright future. The whole of Europe will be the world where you soar, you...!"

As he said that, Napoleon choked up a little.

Despite the victory over Ernst's troops, the French army broke through was only 13,000. The rest were either injured or killed in the battle or lost contact with the large army after the battle.

Lucien's waist and arms were wrapped in thick gauze, and inside the gauze was a thick tourniquet.

The miracle was that just after Napoleon asked God for blessing, Lucien, who was lying on a simple carriage, woke up slowly. He was affected by the bumps of the carriage and woke up in pain.

Due to excessive blood loss, Lucien's face had already revealed a pathological pale whiteness. After Lucien woke up, he murmured. Napoleon, who was riding on the horse, immediately ordered the carriage to stop and leaned over to Lucien.

"Water...water"

Despite the low voice, Napoleon still saw what Lucien wanted to say

Napoleon immediately untied the kettle hanging on the edge of his saddle, then poured out some of them on his hands and slowly dripped into Lucien's mouth.

Often, people who are seriously injured cannot drink water in large gulps. This is common sense, and Napoleon naturally knew it. After drinking a small sip of water, Lucien fell into a coma again.

Seeing this situation, Napoleon gritted his teeth and said:

"Manna, immediately let the entire army speed up and arrive in Brussels as soon as possible!"

Hearing Napoleon's orders, Mana immediately rushed to the front army.

Napoleon's army defeated the British army and broke through the siege of the coalition. But it does not mean that they are safe. You should know that behind them, there are 15,000 cavalrymen drawn from various units of the coalition forces, pursuing them.

After Lucien fell into a coma again, Napoleon immediately turned around and rushed to the rear army, wanting to block the pursuit of the coalition forces for the French army.

But it may be that Napoleon was constantly dying. Later that day, heavy rain suddenly started to rain in the sky. This was God's favor for Napoleon. Although heavy rain would affect the speed of the French army's march, it would also affect the speed of the coalition pursuers. At the same time, the main thing to pursue was the cavalry, and the heavy rain made the road more muddy. Obviously, the cavalry could no longer complete the pursuit mission.

Although no one was willing to rush on a rainy day, because of the pursuers behind him, French soldiers continued to set out towards Brussels in the pouring rain above their heads. Although William was determined to force the army to pursue the French army, he had to give up in the face of many coalition generals.

Listening to the sound of rain outside and thinking about the battle with the French army all the way since the army was sent, William still felt that he underestimated Napoleon. Although he seemed to have a taste of being invincible under the coalition forces, he suffered several great losses under Napoleon's hands.

"Wait until the rain stops, step on Brussels!"

William, who was willing but not capable, said angrily as he looked at the magnificent rain outside the tent.

................

Queen Louise was very happy during this period. Although her son was fighting outside, she was always worried, but the baby boy Anna gave birth to made Louise's mood fundamentally change. These days, Louise has been staying in Anna's bedroom. Looking at the baby sleeping in her cradle, Louise said to Anna with a smile:

"I think so, I really think too much. This child looks exactly the same as his father when he was young!"

Despite this sentence, Anna has heard it countless times. But she still smiled and said:

"Of course, he is His Majesty's child after all!"

After Anna said that, Louise complained:

"It's a pity that it's all because of this war, otherwise, William would probably see him the first time he was born. Unfortunately, William hasn't been able to come back to see the child yet. There are still many days when he hasn't seen William, and I don't know if he has lost weight or darkness."

"Mother, Your Majesty is a great man. This war is for the whole of Prussia. As the king, William naturally has no choice but to do so. Besides, the war will end all the time, and Your Majesty will still be able to return to reunite with us at that time."

Hearing Anna's consolation, Louise's face became happy again and said:

"By the way, Anna, some of the ministers these days proposed to me to make this child the crown prince. What do you think?"

Louise's words immediately made Anna's heart become active. In Anna's opinion, she gave birth to the eldest son for William, and this eldest son had no physical problems. So it would be better to make the title of crown prince as soon as possible, whether it was for the future of her children or for herself.

But this proposal cannot be expressed from her, after all, it seems a bit too anxious.

"Mother, let's talk about this after His Majesty wins the war."

Although what Anna said was a bit humble, it was also a test of Louise. After all, this topic was first raised by Louise. If Louise intentionally supported her, she would definitely say what she meant.

"Anna, I have also thought about it these days. I think since this child is healthy, it is better to set up his status as soon as possible. As William's first son, this child is naturally the best heir to the throne!"

When Anna heard Louise say this, she was overjoyed. You should know that Louise is the Queen Mother of Prussia. Since she showed support for her children, it would undoubtedly affect a large group of people.

"But now that His Majesty is in his prime, God bless Prussia, is it too early to decide the crown prince?"

"It's not too early. Now, the crown prince can stabilize the foundation of the country on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also shock some people!"

Hearing Louise's words, Anna did not respond but lowered her head.

Anna naturally knew the meaning hidden in Louise's words, and it was natural that those people were shocked. It is not necessary to say more. You should know that shortly after Anna gave birth to this child, the entire Prussian upper class almost knew that Du Li was pregnant, and this news made most of the Prussian native nobles ambiguous about Anna and Karina's three daughters.

Although Du Li has no status now, and according to the common inheritance law on the European continent, the child born to Du Li without status is naturally an illegitimate child, and the illegitimate child has no inheritance rights.

But behind Du Li was Marquis Hans. Although Marquis Hans's business was mainly foreign intelligence, Hans was a member of the Prussian government cabinet after all, and Anna was without relatives in Prussia for no reason. If it weren't for Louise's protection, Anna would have long known how many pieces would have been torn to pieces by the Prussian nobles and ministers behind those local concepts.

Moreover, with Du Li's pregnancy, another aftermath occurred, that is, the trusted officials under Locks also began to test Locks' attitude towards Anna and the little prince.

After all, Karina is Locks's granddaughter and Karina is also the heir to Locks' huge property and power. Now that Du Li is pregnant, it is hard to guarantee when Karina will become pregnant. Will Locks not make some arrangements for her own granddaughter?

It is precisely because of this question that a large number of officials under Locks's sect were constantly testing Locks' attitude, but Locks chose to avoid these people.

In Prussia, Locks and Prince Henry are two carriages running side by side in the military and political circles of Prussia, and their power is deeply rooted. If Locks stands at the forefront of opposing Anna, then it can be foreseeable that Anna's position as queen will definitely become crumbling.

"Grandpa, those people are so annoying. If you don't see them, they all came to me!"

Karina walked to Locks who was sitting in the garden and complained softly. When she heard Karina's complaint, Locks raised her eyelids and glanced at her. This glance made Karina feel a little nervous immediately.

"Karina, are you really going to fight for the position of that queen? Do you not know what happened to you and Du Li in private?"

Karina was shocked when she heard Locks say this.

The reason why so many officials from the Locks faction came to visit was ultimately due to Karina and Du Li.

When Du Li and Karina reached an agreement that day, the two women promised that as long as Anna was removed, no matter who ascended the position of queen, once the other person had a child, the person who was the queen must admit that the child was born to him in order to win the title of a legitimate son.

After the two women reached an agreement, they also informed Lilisa privately. Although Lilisa was born timid and Anna also made many moves to win over Lilisa, Lilisa has been shaking and neutral in the two women Du Li and Anna so far.

Although this made Du Li and the two girls feel a little dissatisfied with Lilisa, they also understand Lilisa. After all, no matter which side of the four girls, the support behind them is much stronger than Lilisa.
