The Hated Son

CHAPTER IV
13/19

I warn you that if you, or any one in this province, over which I am governor, does aught to displease the young duke, or thwart him in any way whatsoever, it would be better, should it come to my knowledge, that that man had never been born.

You hear me.

Return now to your duties, and God guide you.

The obsequies of my son Maximilien will take place here when his body arrives.

The household will go into mourning eight days hence.
