Eagle’s Glory

In just a few words, Maria allowed herself to overwhelm Andre in terms of momentum. Although she was technically "at her wits' end", considering her special status, Andre Davout was not able to do so. He dared to make a mistake, not to mention that he thought that His Highness and His Majesty had some kind of personal relationship, so he could only be respectful.

After calling Andre away, Maria reopened the door and walked into the bedroom. Then, the smile on her face disappeared, and then she looked at the young man lying on the bed with a reluctant expression.

"Well, as you wish, I have asked my entourage to arrange their luggage. We can leave in the evening -"

Aigron felt guilty, so he could only smile and thank the other party.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Your Highness."

"Such insincere words have no meaning." Maria shook her head, showing no intention of giving up. "Well, the only question now is, where do you want to go?"

"Let's go south and go to the Principality of Parma together -" Aigron said the answer he had been thinking about for a long time.

The Principality of Parma is adjacent to the Kingdom of Lombardy, and the distance is very close, so he can avoid as many bumps in the road as possible.

Moreover, it is now ruled by his mother. Strictly speaking, it should be the safest place he can find now.

What's more ideal is that he also has the identity documents her mother forged for him, so that he can sneak into the principality without attracting attention.

The only problem is that he has a bad relationship with his mother, but this problem is no longer a problem - he has reconciled with his mother on the surface, and his mother also wants something from him, so she should choose to cover this up this time. An anxious son.

Emotionally speaking, Aigron doesn't want to see his mother again, but now is not the time to talk about feelings, and he won't give up reason just because of a little entanglement.

"Go to Parma?" Maria was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood Aigron's intention, but she still hesitated a little, "Will your mother... cooperate?"

Apparently, she had also heard rumors that Aiglon and his mother were not getting along, so she was a little hesitant.

"It doesn't matter, she is not that patriotic..." Aigron smiled, "For her, family is more important, and now she will not harm me."

Maria understood that Luisa would protect the eldest son,

But Aigron knew that in the eyes of his mother, her and Earl Naipeg's two children were more important - it was just to let the eldest son be his patron, so he was treated differently.

Now that the young people have mentioned this, Maria no longer questions it. In her opinion, this is indeed a good solution.

Luisa is the ruler of the principality. If she protects her, it will be much more difficult for Bianca to hunt her down.

"Okay, then do as you say." Maria nodded and agreed with his opinion.

However, when she said this, she became a little angry again, "Huh, I blame you! I just came out to take a look, but the journey turned into a mess! I risked my life, and almost died under the sword at this moment, not to mention it was inexplicable. Go to another place!"

Aigron could only smile bitterly at this.

"I'm sorry, this is indeed my fault, but this is not the result I want to see... I can only blame the capricious fate. Don't worry, after getting there, once it is safe, I will I’ll see you off immediately, you can definitely go home safely.”

In other words, Maria was his talisman on the road.

"Anyway, it's all your fault! I got into such a troublesome situation!" Maria seemed completely unable to listen to his advice, and still scolded him angrily, "How should I introduce your mother when I meet her? How should I explain? "

Aigron was stunned.

It’s already this time, do we still need to consider this kind of issue? He felt a little ridiculous.

But thinking back, he realized that this was indeed a problem.

In any case, Maria is a princess of the same country, and she can't hide her identity from her mother at all - because she and Sophie look exactly the same, and it's impossible for Louisa not to recognize Sophie after seeing her.

Therefore, since both of them are princesses, etiquette issues must be taken into consideration, but it seems that it is not right to follow the official etiquette completely, because theoretically Maria did not make an official visit to the Principality of Parma, nor was she notified in advance.

Besides, how should I explain my relationship with Maria to my mother?

"Mom, this is my mistress's twin sister, I'm going to get her too -"

Well, if you put it this way, would she feel very happy and proud of this ambitious son? Or will he tie himself up in anger and give it to his father?

Alas, thinking about it too much gave me a headache. In the end, Aigron thought it was better not to think about these things.

The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge. Let's save our lives first!

So, he suddenly stretched out his right hand and took Maria's hand.

"Huh?!" Maria looked at him in surprise, but she still stopped complaining.

"Your Highness, I am very sorry that I have brought you so much trouble. However, since you have helped me and tolerated me in this way, you might as well trust me again. I think this problem is not difficult to solve. Although my mother is not a tolerant person, She is a human being, but she also knows the priorities of things and will not embarrass us all because of some inexplicable things. She will pretend not to see it when necessary."

Aigron talked hard and finally made Maria no longer entangled.

So, after quick preparations, they packed their bags and prepared to leave the hotel.

After a lot of troubles before, the owner of the hotel also knew that the identities of these guests were of great importance, so he cooperated very well.

Soon, the group left under the cover of night. Aigron was still seriously injured, so Andre Davout had someone make a simple stretcher and personally carried him to Maria's carriage, and then rode on horseback. Attendant beside the carriage.

The group of people quickly left the city of Milan, and at this time, the secretary Leon Esposito, who had stayed in the manor before and had received the news, also rushed over to join them. Even the traitor whom Aiglon captured and tortured Russo was also brought over by him.

Milan was very close to Parma, and because of Maria's cover, the trip went quite smoothly. After only one day, they arrived in the Principality of Parma.

For Aiglon, this was a completely unexpected journey. He had never thought of looking for his mother again since he said goodbye to her last time. However, fate was indeed so unpredictable that he could only laugh and laugh about it.

The Principality of Parma is a small country, and Aigron came to the hotel where he stayed last time - except that when he came last time, he was accompanied by his wife Theresa, and this time, he There was another person beside him.

After arriving here, he asked his guard captain Andre Davout to find the palace with his letter, and handed it to his mother's attendants in the previously agreed way.

Not long after, several people quietly came to visit where Aigron was staying.

These people were taken outside Aigron's room, and the leader was Archduchess Louisa in casual clothes.

Although Louisa was very surprised, she still seemed calm. She stepped back and then walked to her son's residence alone.

In the letter, Aigron had already said that he was injured, but did not say the reason. Therefore, when he saw the young man lying on the bed, his mother was not very surprised, but there was a little pain in his eyes.

Although this middle-aged woman has mediocre intelligence, she has experienced countless turbulent events in her short life, so she has developed a certain mentality. Although things were rushed, she did not panic.

"My son, how did you get things to this point?" She asked Aiglon in a low voice, "Are you being hunted down because you made trouble in France?"

Although she was in a remote location, Louisa was not very well informed. Of course she had also heard the news that Aigron had gone to France to stir up trouble. Then when she saw her son injured, she naturally made this reasonable speculation.

Although this guess is somewhat biased, it is close to the truth to a certain extent.

The inside story was very complicated, and Aigron didn't want to explain it in detail, so he just answered vaguely, "I was assassinated by an assassin in Milan. Although I can't be sure it was someone sent by the Bourbon family, it should be related to France."

"King Charles Use any means to get rid of your opponents... Bah! If you had tried to assassinate the two brothers when your father was still alive, they would have died more than ten times. Who would be as despicable as them!"

It's not that Louisa hates the Bourbon family, but as an orthodox royal member, she feels that the medieval method of assassinating political opponents is too cheap, not to mention that the victim is her own son.

Of course, she has another standard for her son's conspiracy to subvert the Kingdom of France.

Seeing his mother so angry, Aigron felt a lot better.

"Thank you for speaking kindly to me." Aigron expressed his gratitude to his mother. "Although I was seriously injured, I am more confident now. This actually shows the weakness of our enemies - they do not have the confidence to follow me. I am competing, so I use this method."

Louisa's expression was uncertain, as if she was thinking about something.

"Would you like me to take you to my palace as a guest? It should be safer there."

"No need." Aigron immediately shook his head, "There are too many people in your palace. If I go there now, the news will be leaked out soon, and I don't want to cause any trouble to you."

Now that he has offended the French royal family many times, if his mother brings him to her palace with great fanfare, it will inevitably cause some disputes, and Aiglon doesn't want to cause trouble.

"Okay..." Louisa nodded, and felt that what Aigron said made sense, "Then you can recuperate here, I will secretly make people pay attention to the safety here, and no suspicious people will approach. you."

After getting his mother's promise, Aigron breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, she is the ruler here. As long as she protects him, no matter how mysterious Bianca is, it will not harm him. As long as he recovers from his injuries, he can come and go freely again.

He knew that he owed his mother a favor this time, so he rarely softened his attitude towards her.

"Thank you, ma'am... Whether it's your help or your just indignation on my behalf, I'm glad that I can find you for asylum."

"Son, there's no need to say such polite words. You won't be truly grateful to me, and I don't need this meaningless gratitude - you and I both get what we need, and I don't help you for nothing. Yours." Louisa smiled slightly, "If you come to me for help but I abandon you, how should I explain to Amberdine and William? They have been preparing to help you."

Since Luisa had spoken so clearly, Aigron said nothing more.

He also knew in his heart that in the mother's heart, the most important child was not him after all, and it was no longer easy to do this.

"By the way, there's something you need to explain to me -" Louisa suddenly changed the subject, "I saw a woman who looked exactly like Sophie among your entourage. Who is she? You want to ease the You are so lovesick that you specifically found a woman who looks similar to you as your mistress?"

Eggron secretly marveled at his mother's imagination - does this imagination come from life, or is it the inevitable randomness of middle age?

No matter what, he had to refute the rumors.

"No, no, she is the twin sister of Her Highness Sophie, Her Highness Maria."

"What!?" Louisa was really shocked now, "What's going on? Why did you kidnap a Bavarian princess? Are you crazy?"

"You don't have to use your imagination so much..." Aiglon laughed slightly awkwardly, "She came here voluntarily to help me, and it's a long story."

Then, he told his mother exactly why he and His Highness Maria ended up in the current situation by accident. Of course, he deliberately blurred some specific details.

Luisa listened quietly, and it was not until Aiglon finished speaking that she gave her evaluation, "In other words, after she was offended by you many times, she still forgave you, or chose to help you? Why?"

"Maybe it's for Sophie's sake." Aiglon replied.

Louisa frowned slightly, as if she didn't believe it.

"What about you? My son, what do you plan to do with her?"

"Of course I am only grateful to her -" Aiglon replied.

"So far, everyone you have been grateful to has been in bad luck. Your grandfather, Archduke Charles, Sophie -" Louisa replied calmly, "As the new member on the list, how are you going to make her miserable? "

Hello! How can you treat your son like this and not put a little trust in him? ! Aegron was furious.

But sadly, it seems... true.

Seeing her son's silence, Louisa shook her head and gave up questioning.

"My son, you are already an adult, and you have always been accustomed to going your own way. In reality, you have also proved that you can do whatever you want. I shouldn't say anything more - I just ask you to think of it, Some things are not as controllable as you think. Once you go too far, it will turn into a disaster..."
