Early the next morning, Victor Emmanuel II and Empress Augusta left Milan under the escort of the Guard Cavalry dispatched personally by Franz Joseph. After several hours of journey, they finally arrived at the border between the Austrian Empire and the Sardinian Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, please allow us not to accompany you and Her Majesty the Empress any further!" Joseph Jellach responded to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Thank you for your efforts!" Jerome Bonaparte smiled slightly and said to Joseph Jellach.
Afterwards, Joseph Jellach turned around and headed back towards Milan, while Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta continued forward.
Soon, Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta encountered the Sardinian General who had previously escorted them to the border.
Upon seeing Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta, the Sardinian General swiftly dismounted and approached Jerome Bonaparte and Empress Augusta, saying, "Your Majesty, Empress, you have returned!"
