Excerpt from Richelieu, Vol. 3 of 3: A Tale of FranceWhy, Monsieur de Blenau, answered the Governor, you must prepare yourself to meet the Cardinal himself, a messenger has just come to say that he 'will be here in person without loss of time. He arrived last night at the Palm's Car dinal, and brought the King to Paris with him.You seem to hold this Cardinal in some fear, said De Blenau, almost smiling, amidst his own embarrassment, at the evident terror of the Governor. I could have wished that he had given me a little more time for consideration, but I am not so frightened at him as you seem to be, who have nothing to do with it.But pray remember, man cher Comte, cried the Governor, that you promised not to. Betray me to the Cardinal in any case.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
