Since General Hugo followed King Joseph to Madrid two years ago, Madame Hugo and several children returned to Paris from the city of Naples on the Italian Peninsula. Out of concern for the education of the children, Madame Hugo (Sophie Hugo) chose a lot and decided to No. 12, Fyantina Weng Lane, a white house with a garden, as the living apartment for the whole family in Paris.

Before marrying General Hugo (at the time Major Hugo), Sophie Hugo was just the daughter of an old ship owner, but she grew up earlier than other women and liked to study, so she developed an idea and decisive personality. Politically, like her father and most people in the Brittany region, she tended to be a royalist party.

In 1810, her eldest son Abel was 12 years old and usually studied in a boarding school. Her second son Louis and the youngest SVIDO were sent by Mrs. Hugo to the nearby Saint-Czech Road private school, so that she could assist her two younger sons in their studies at any time.

This firm, unrestrained and energetic mother, with a little proud face, did not want her sons to be lawyers (a shortcut for officials), nor did she want her sons to become officers who work for the emperor. Mrs. Hugo's greatest hope was to make them great writers.

Day after day, Mrs. Hugo asked her two sons to work happily in a small room, and taught the little ones how to be frugal, and weaved the collected waste materials into beautiful tablecloths. After dinner, the children went with their mother to the garden, by the jungle, and by the stream. The three of them recited Shakespeare's plays or Dante's poems in French or Latin. It was in this unconscious cultural atmosphere that Mrs. Hugo trained a literary master for France and the world, Victor Hugo.

Mrs. Hugo has few social activities, almost no. Apart from raising her children and working on daily housework, her only close friend is Mrs. Fouche. When she has nothing to do, the wife of the police minister who rarely goes to social places often goes to Fyantina's apartment to see her friends. When she comes, she will bring her son Victor and daughter Adele.

After the New Year in 1810, Madame Hugo's family had another noble regular guest, Grand Duke Hruna, the great charity praised by the people of Paris, Andrew Desai.

At the beginning of the period, the reason why Mrs. Hugo invited the Duke of Desay to the mansion was that his husband, General Hugo, wrote a letter to ask. The latter hoped that his wife and children could come to Madrid as soon as possible to get to reconcile the lovesickness of the two places. However, Paris is two thousand kilometers away from Madrid, and the road is not only difficult, but rebels are harassing along the way, and killing and looting has become the norm.

After learning that the emperor was about to send Duke Hruna and his Desai Division to Portugal, General Hugo expressed a request to the Duke of Desai through his wife, hoping that when the Desai Division went south to fight, he could escort Madame Hugo and his three children to Madrid.

In response, Duke Desai patted his chest and agreed. In fact, he had no personal grudges with General Hugo. After several contacts, he felt a little sympathetic. Most of the time, the conflicts and confrontations between the two were just acting for the audience on stage and off the stage. In addition, Desai also wanted to meet the childhood appearance of the French writer Victor Hugo.

Duke Hruna, who has always been profitable and cannot get up early, has a profound meaning. He hopes to leave a good impression on the great writers in the future. When they grow up and become successful, they take the initiative to write books and biography for themselves, so that Andrew Desai can be famous for thousands of history and be remembered forever. In addition to Victor Hugo, of course, Alexander, Dumas, and Honore Balzac are indispensable.

Since the death of General Dumas, Dumas and his mother have been living in poverty (Dummas has a bad relationship with the emperor and has not received a pension), and have barely made a living with just one grocery store. Desay asked Candiola to send people to the city of Ville-Cotley near Paris, giving Dumas' grocery store exclusive rights to sell canned Mediterranean food. This alone can earn an additional monthly income of 800 francs for the Dumas' family (an absolute well-off home).

As for Honore Balzac, his family is rich, his father is an administrative official of the empire, and his mother is also the daughter of a wealthy businessman in Paris. It is not the turn of the Duke of Desai to give alms. When he was worried that he had no choice, Balzac wrote to the Duke of Desai through his father, requesting a complete set of "Delesai Fairy Tales" published and distributed in Spain. Of course, this was a good thing Miss Litsai did in Seville. To make up for the merits, Lysai agreed to transfer the collected edition he had saved to Balzac.

"Desay Fairy Tales Collection" is indeed a killer for all children aged 6 to 26, a woman's invincible killer. When Desay was visiting the apartment of Fiandinner, Victor Jr. immediately fell in love with this "Can Duke" that is circulated throughout Paris. He likes his hymn recitation of poems, "Winter is here, is spring far away; he likes him to tell nice and fun stories in an exaggerated and humorous tone; he likes his infectious expression and narrates his life philosophy that he doesn't understand.

...The widest thing in the world is the ocean, the sky is wider than the ocean, and the mind is the human mind.

...The future will belong to two types of people: the person who thinks and the person who works. In fact, these two types of people are one kind of people, because thoughts are also labor.

...The wisdom of human wisdom holds three keys, one turns on the numbers, one turns on the letters, and one turns on the notes. Knowledge, thoughts, and fantasy are all in it.

*****Borrowing the above famous quotes is a true respect for Master Hugo**********

Soon, Madame Hugo was grateful and looking forward to the Duke of Desay to visit. It was the children, whether Victor, Louis, or Abel, who really fell in love with literary poetry. Every day, there was no need to urge him, and the sound of reading sounds would sound in the room or in the garden.

On January 19, Desay was invited to visit Feryandinna's apartment for the third time. Because it was a Sunday, Mrs. Fouche brought her son Victor and daughter Adele to visit Mrs. Hugo's house.

As soon as he got off the carriage, Desai heard bursts of joyful laughter from the garden. He knew that the children were swinging, pushing snowballs, and playing with each other. Desai didn't want to disturb him for the time being, so he walked straight into the apartment building.

The maid naturally knew the regular customer and explained that the hostess and the female guest were accompanying the children in the garden, asking if they needed a notice. Desai shook his head and said no, just a cup of hot coffee so that the frozen body would be filled with a hint of warmth.

Since the "Desai Foundation" started to operate, Desai has no free time. Almost every day, he has to work hard to travel around the slums in various blocks of Paris, holding flour in his left hand and canned food in his right hand, and there are plenty of fruit candies in his pocket. He smiles and brings warmth and love to the poor children's homes. While winning a huge reputation for himself and his father, Desai has to admit that "showing" is still a heavy physical job.

However, in Paris, where conspiracy is flooded with intrigues, a few people will also become suspicious. They secretly believe that the charitable "Duke of Can" has the original intention of founding the "Desay Foundation" and the various kind acts of paying attention to the families of poor children, which are not just a simple show. The Minister of Police, Joseph Foucher, is one of the few.

Soon, Fouchy took the initiative to send a letter to Desay, choosing to wait for the arrival of Duke Hruna in Madame Hugo's study.

At 3 pm, the door of the study was pushed open, and a young man in his prime came in. He was tall, majestic, well-proportioned, and vigorous in spirit. There was a noble and elegant beauty between his eyebrows, which made people feel kind and kind.

The scheming Fouche naturally would not be deceived by Desai's kind appearance. He kept sneering in his heart. The little bastard in front of him was playing with two-faced and three-faced bastard.

First, he sent his nephew Carls to be friendly with him, but turned around and captured all the spies who set up secret police in the Desay Division and the Dominion of Hruna in one place;

Later, the double act of Desai and Napoleon actually deceived Paris and Madrid, and Catalonia became a trade transfer base with merchant ships overnight;

He cleverly used the personal resources left by the old Desai, maintained good relations with the emperor, and also had semi-public contacts with the emperor's mortal enemy, the British and the royal party, but were not scolded by Napoleon;

The most hateful thing is that Desai actually deployed the intelligence station in Paris with great fanfare, and his eyelids were low. People in Paris, whether they like him or hate him, had to admit that the Duke of Desai was a good person.

In the study, Desay smiled and looked at the terrifying figure in the black coat, Joseph Fouche, who was known as the most terrifying figure in France. Perhaps because he was weak and sick in his youth, the police minister is still thin, hoarse, sallow and bloodless, but his cunning eyes and alert ears are like well-trained mountain hounds, and they will not miss any clues.

Desai understands the countless "glory titles" that Fouche possesses, such as: born traitors, despicable conspirators, slick reptiles, experts in selling their owners for glory, shameless and vulgar spies, morally degraded villains, professional enemy surrenders, the most authentic Machiavellis in modern times, etc. Some of the names were given by the former French heroes, Danton, De Muran, Saint Just, Robespierre, Barras, and the current Emperor Napoleon.

If Desay had faced Fouch alone a year ago, he might have become timid and cowardly. But now, a normal heart is enough to deal with any criticism from the Minister of Police, not to mention that he has made some preparations.

Desai was very clear about the angry mood of the police minister, so as soon as he entered the door, he took out a check of 500,000 francs and placed it gently on the desk, allowing Fouch to see the amount of the check at a glance.
