"Hiss..." Crown Prince Louis stopped, took a deep breath of air with a solemn expression, and made up his mind:

"This is indeed a good idea. Paris Military Academy. I will definitely learn a lot there. Without further ado, let's go and ask for my grandfather's permission now."

After making up his mind, Crown Prince Louis took Lawrence to the King's Suite without hesitation and told his grandfather his plan.

Louis XV, who was recuperating on the hospital bed, quickly realized after hearing this that this should be Laurence Bonaparte's idea, but he still asked with great confusion:

"Going to the Paris Military Academy? There is no need for such an unseemly thing. If you want to know about military affairs, I can recruit some consultants for you."

Crown Prince Louis shook his head and replied firmly:

"No, grandfather, the advisers will only treat me as a pampered grandson, but I want to receive the same education as the future generals. As for being unseemly...I will go to the Paris Military Academy under a pseudonym."

"Disguised under a pseudonym..." Louis XV frowned slightly, seeming to sense his grandson's determination.

Lawrence was also a little surprised, but did not say anything to stop him. If Prince Louis could use a false identity to mingle with the students, Lawrence could still achieve his goal.

Louis XV, who was lying in bed, seemed a little hesitant. He did see that Auguste was serious, but there was indeed no precedent for this kind of thing in France. Let a distinguished crown prince go to the military academy to hang out with a group of civilians.

He even had to be beaten, scolded and punished by those strict instructors.

Louis XV, who already had a splitting headache, couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he looked at Lawrence and asked:

"Lawrence, do you think it is a good idea for the Crown Prince to go to a military academy?"

Lawrence was also well prepared and nodded confidently:

"I think so. The most important thing is that His Highness the Crown Prince can gain a group of loyal military subordinates, which should allow His Highness to better control the army in the future."

"Well...yes, control the army..."

Louis XV nodded subconsciously. These words really touched him, because the old king himself had insufficient control over the army, so he was forced to appoint the Duke of Choiseul to take charge of the army.

Although this powerful duke made Louis XV very afraid, there was no better candidate among Louis XV's cronies.

The king certainly does not want the crown prince to face the same dilemma after he succeeds to the throne. It would undoubtedly be a good thing if he could really gain a group of officers from the Paris Military Academy who could be entrusted with important tasks in the future.

Louis XV thought for a moment and continued to ask:

"But will this have a negative impact on public opinion, Laurence? Even if August pretends to be anonymous, one day this matter will be revealed."

"I think not, Your Majesty." Lawrence smiled and replied:

"The Russian Tsar Peter once traveled around Western Europe disguised as a corporal. This is a good story. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just imitated Peter's old story, which is not enough to attract criticism."

Hearing the name of Peter I, Louis XV couldn't help but fell into deep thought again.

Although he hated fickle and disloyal Russians, Louis XV also admitted that Czar Peter fifty years ago was indeed a hero who made Russia rise in Eastern Europe.

"If August could have achieved what Tsar Peter had achieved..."

The king couldn't help but start to imagine that if his successor could make France rise again in Western Europe like Peter the Great, even if he had turned into a handful of bones by then, his spirit in heaven would definitely laugh happily.

Thinking of this, Louis XV met the eager gaze of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, nodded slowly and said:

"Then...Okay, Auguste, I allow you to stay in Paris and go to military school, but don't slack off; Lawrence, if you have nothing important to do, you can go with Auguste."

"Got it! Grandfather." Crown Prince Louis glanced at Lawrence excitedly.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Lawrence also nodded slightly. He had originally wanted to enter the Paris Military Academy with the Crown Prince so that he could better hold the future officer group in his hands.

Louis XV also looked at Auguste with satisfaction, seeing that his heir no longer indulged in hunting, making locks, and overeating, which was quite gratifying to the old king.

When the two were about to retreat, Louis XV suddenly remembered something and added to Lawrence:

"Oh, by the way, let Duke Charles join you. He is also August's attendant."

Lawrence nodded thoughtfully, leaned over and replied:
