CHAPTER XII

Early the next morning, Alfonso went to the Élysée Palace again.

Yesterday he talked to the president of the promotion association about the supermarket.

The other party said that he would find a way to gather the merchants of the Champs-Elysées for a meeting on Friday this week, that is, three days later.

Anyway, they usually have a meeting every three or five days, and Alfonso's matter is by the way.

When the time comes, he will talk to which merchants he likes, and he will coordinate with them.

But the other party also said that it is still necessary to follow the principle of mutual consent, and the transfer fee and rent should not be less, and the emperor cannot come forward.

As for why Alfonso went to the Élysée, it was because for a long time from now on he would be educated as a governess with the son of Napoleon III.

This was also agreed in advance by Isabella and Napoleon, and Alfonso could not be refused.

Napoleon IV is just 12 years old this year, just a year older than Alfonso.

Coincidentally, the heirs of France, Spain, Austria-Hungary, and Wilhelm II, the eldest grandson of Germany, were 12, 11, 10, and 9 years old.

If we can find a way to bring them together, these young people of noble status should have a lot in common.

In addition to the problem of education, Napoleon III also rented a house for Alfonso next to the palace.

Originally, he even planned to help him pay the rent, but Alfonso sternly refused, saying that he still paid for it.

He was mainly worried that he would receive too much favor from Napoleon, but he did not remind him of the Franco-Prussian War, and his conscience would not be happy.

When the waiter saw Alfonso coming, he quickly led him to the private residence of the royal family.

Alfonso had arrived early, but by this time Nasi had already begun his morning exercises, and on the training ground, a teenager was wielding his saber and sweating profusely, just like Alfonso had done a few weeks earlier.

Empress Eugenie had been standing by and watching, her face serious.

Seeing that Alfonso was late, she was going to say a few words to him, but when she saw that face, she couldn't help but soften.

only said: "Next time you come early, it is time for young people to exercise, although I don't do knights now, but health comes first." ”

"Okay, not next time." It seems that Empress Eugenie still doesn't know the legendary story of her wearing N, and the emperor didn't tell her.

Alfonso thought for a while, in this case, it was rumored that the relationship between Nasan and Eugenie was true, and yesterday's joint appearance was just a performance for outsiders.

It's also to blame Nasan, who goes out every day to mess with flowers and grass.

After all, although Eugenie is one of the two most beautiful women in Europe on the same level as Princess Sissi, she is now 42 years old, and the emperor only likes 24 years old.

Nasi also stopped practicing his sword and looked at Alfonso blankly, he had heard that the Spanish prince was very handsome, but he didn't expect it to be so beautiful.

"Eugène! What are you doing! Don't stop! Eugenie was angry when she saw Nasi stop.

I just finished teaching other people's children, and my own children came to be lazy, isn't this a loss of face?

"Oh, I'm sorry." Take the four to force his eyes back and continue to swing his sword.

Alfonso casually took the sword handed by the guard, his appearance had been strengthened to the limit.

However, the physical fitness is only equivalent to a strong gladiator, and there is still a small increase every day, and it is still necessary to exercise.

"I don't want to go too far, but it's a waste of time if I don't exert my strength, just expose it, set up the people of the European Sword God, and most of the newspapers have been reporting on my forest encounters recently."

Standing next to Nafour, he wanted to say hello, but Eugenie's stern gaze dissuaded him from the idea, and he had to wait until breakfast.

"Boom"

Everyone watched in amazement as Alfonso swung his saber at four or three times as fast as he could take.

The air was constantly slicing, and each swing of the sword was exactly where it stayed, and the hands were not steady.

Those present were all knowledgeable in swordsmanship, and even Eugenie had some training, so she naturally knew what it meant to swing like this.

There are not so many bells and whistles in European swordsmanship, as long as the sword is stable and fast enough, and the power is strong enough to appear where it should appear at the critical moment.

"Roland is back to life!" The instructor captain exclaimed, which was also what everyone thought in their hearts.

"Alfonso, if I'm not mistaken, you're only 11 years old, right? What's going on with you? Eugenie felt like she might still be in a dream.

In fact, Alfonso has not yet reached the level of non-human, and there are many people in Europe who are more physically fit than him.

It's just that he has such physical qualities at the age of 11 is incredible, and with his perfect appearance, it is easy to remind people of the legendary Paladin Roland in France.

"I was born with divine powers." Alfonso reluctantly said that he really couldn't find a better explanation.

"You are truly favored by God," Eugénie could only sigh, and if Alfonso were not still in exile, she would have felt that God was too partial.

In the silence of the crowd, the morning exercise ended.

At this time, Nasi seized the opportunity to speak, he already had a good impression of Alfonso, and when he saw his amazing swordsmanship, he almost turned to worship.

"Alfonso, how did you practice swordsmanship, and which master did you study with?"

Historically, Nasi was an adventurer, and after the fall of Nasim, he served in the British army, went on an expedition to Zulu, and finally died in Africa, and was extremely heroic.

"It's really just innate divine power, and swordsmanship is practiced with ordinary guards."

Alfonso was also happy to make friends with Nashi.

According to historical evaluations, although Nasi is a little impulsive and a little simple-minded, he is still brave and fearless.

The appearance also inherited from Eugenie, much higher than the average of the Bonaparte family, at least much better than Rudolph's children, he likes to play with good-looking children.

According to the schedule, Nasi and Alfonso practice fencing in the morning, and after breakfast, learn the foreign Chinese language (currently Italian) for two hours, and practice fencing and equestrianism for a while.

In the afternoon, there will be a pure culture class, and foreign Chinese, heraldry, history, and military affairs will be studied.

After 4 o'clock, you can move freely, after all, the heir of the empire can't be a nerd, and still needs to socialize.

……

The day's learning is over.

After Alfonso showed his ability to learn, Eugénie relaxed his discipline.

Correspondingly, Nasi was sinned, and at the end of the day he was in charge.

But Nasi has no ill feelings towards Alfonso, who caused all this, and for his peers who are far superior to him in all aspects, normal people will only rise up to worship.

At the end of the day, Na Four almost called Alfonso, who was a year younger than him, the eldest brother.

"Eugène, let's go shopping at the Champs-Élysées and confirm the location." Alfonso took Nasi with him, said goodbye to Eugenie and walked outside the palace.

"Is that the supermarket you were talking about? I'm very familiar with this piece, and I guarantee to help you choose the best location! Nasi patted his chest and promised.
