It means "chestnuts of drunk hedgehogs", unless my memory is beginning to fail me.

Was it established why the lunatic monster clank built by a Heterodyne won't just up and decide the mistress is the boss?
If not, methinks Tweedle is forgetting something important.

I'm annoyed how all of our strongest fighters seem to get curb-stomped these days.

Yeah I would really like to see Zeetha curbstomp some people already, we know she can she took out a whole pirate base. Especially since this volume is the first of the arc, so anyone jumping on halfway through has no idea what Zeetha can do. (Not that it seems likely that anyone would jump on half way through.)
I think Tweedle is going for good publicity on this one. He helps Agatha get to Paris, and says so, suddenly as much as the public is concerned she's on his side. Plus shes out of the way as he deals with the Empire. Also wasn't Paris and the Storm King related? Or was that just Fanon.
Or he might just be lieing through his teeth, either way.

He iz lyink (iz correct schpellink, hy checked - vor Jäger anyvay) in the best vay to lie. He iz tellink der truth, chust not all ov it. Storm King iz frum France. Der original Kings name - Valois. Hiz sigl - de Fler de Lis. Vhat iz best vay to announce to vorld he is Storm King den to marry Heterodyne Princess in Paris? Und make it look like she came of her own vill? hy dun't tink he gonna chust accompany Agatha to Paris.

Hespically a Hetrodyne one? Hy think meybe it will obey eventually, but not until after big fight. But that's just it. "I am your creator; you exist to obey me!" never works... but... many Heterodyne monsters do want to obey the family; or in some cases, their vows (in the case of the Jägerkin) or their programming (in the case of the Castle) involves an obligation to the House of Heterodyne that overrides a lack of enthusiasm about a specific set of orders. This one seems to share some personality traits with the Castle, which would have been it's creator's main prior experience with mechanical AI. Did he build in any obligations to the bloodline? Does it simply share a desire for a Heterodyne? We don't know. And so far it hasn't even had the opportunity to decide. It rushed past Agatha once, which is not much of an introduction. It doesn't know there's a Heterodyne available. (Actually, it might not even know Saturnus has been dead for forty years or so. I can't imagine updating it was much of a priority.) Ulm thought Agatha might be on its side -- and I can see why he might not want to bring that up to her. Interestingly, the monks seem not to have opted to ask Bill and Barry to do anything about it, either. But so far none of the characters seem to have imagined that it might take hers. ...With the potential exception of Tweedle. It has been suggested elsewhere that if that possibility has crossed his mind, his best strategy might very well be to keep her focused on destroying it instead of considering whether to stop for a chat.

Like hy said: "chestnuts of drunk hedgehogs". Hy dun know vot exactly it iz about dis phrase dot hy find... vorrying, but hy do.
Also, ja, hy tink Major andyab1000 haz hit der nail on der head. Der Tveedle iz lyink. He iz not goink to schtop beink an unutterable cad yust like dot. (Unutterable cad? Hy been talkink to Mister Vooster too much.) Hyu ken see de Mistress dun trust heem, und she got no reason vy she should after vot he did. But a truce, for now, vould probably also help de Mistress, zo hy tink she vill go along vit him for der moment und den get avay from him de first chance she gets.
