Eagle’s Glory

Two hundred and twenty-six, hesitation and farewell

"Then maybe you can exchange this for Master Bianca's life and freedom?"

Alice's words were gentle and a little bewitching, and they easily touched Agnes's heartstrings.

After seeing the light of day in her family's affairs, what she is most worried about now is that she and her master will turn against each other. If she can make some sacrifices in this way so that her master will not be punished too severely, it seems that... it is not a bad idea?

Agnes was slightly moved, but immediately she woke up again.

She discovered that her sister at this moment seemed a bit like that guy——

Clever words and persuasion, step-by-step verbal inducement, both soft and hard tactics... are too much like that young man's routine, and the scariest thing is that every time even if he doesn't want to, it seems he has no choice but to bow his head in the end.

Agnes, who has suffered several hardships, instinctively has a kind of resistance and fear.

Therefore, she immediately woke up from her heartbeat state.

"Sister, is that what he meant? Are you here to be his lobbyist?" Agnes asked warily.

Alice was slightly shocked by her sister's reaction, then she nodded with a wry smile, "That's great, my sister, you have grown up..."

Then, she sighed again, "No, this is what I think, but you might not believe it."

"If you say that to me, then I will believe it. I don't want to, and I don't want to suspect that you have malicious intentions towards me." Agnes looked directly at her sister, and then replied in a low voice, "If you can't even write to your closest relatives, So what’s the point of living?”

Alice was inexplicably moved by her sister's answer, and her heart softened for a moment, and she didn't want to continue to push her.

"Agnes, well, let me say it again, this is really my idea. Your Majesty has not revealed this to me. He wants revenge, not to threaten you with Bianca. I am just thinking, if If you are willing to cooperate, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds? You gain fame and a glorious future, and at the same time you help your beloved teacher escape punishment and preserve the relationship between master and disciple... Isn't this good? "

Is it not good? Agnes asked herself again.

She thought about it carefully and found that her sister's words seemed not wrong. Although she was not willing to do it, it was indeed a solution.

The promise I made to the King of Rome before was to defeat my master.

It would be better for her to survive, but I also know that there are many ways in this world that can make a person's life worse than death. Even if it doesn't involve torture, it would be a kind of horror to let the teacher spend the rest of his life in a dark prison without seeing the light of day. punishment.

She had been helpless before. After all, it was the teacher who made the first mistake in assassinating the King of Rome. It was reasonable for the other party to retaliate. The most she could do was save the teacher's life.

But now the suggestion made by my sister can make me make a huge contribution to the King of Rome - for this, it shouldn't be too much to exchange something from him, right?

The more Agnes thought about it, the more it made sense, and she was tempted again.

However, she has never been a person who is proficient in planning, and because of the incident at tonight's dance, she was in a bad mood. Therefore, the more she thought about it, the more upset she became. In the end, her thoughts seemed to freeze and she could not think of any decision.

Alice saw her sister's appearance and immediately guessed her current state.

Her sister is such a simple-minded person. It would be easy for her to draw a sword and kill people, but she would not be able to play tricks at all.

If she had followed her previous plan, now would be the best opportunity. She could show off her sister's style, forcibly convince her sister, make a decision for Agnes, and then be done - and she also knew that Agnes would not Those who blame her will still abide by their agreement and carry it out to the end, even if they regret it later.

But at this moment, seeing her sister in such a bad mood, Alice hesitated, but still couldn't bear to let her sister fall into greater pain at this time——

Alas, let her take a break first.

So, she hugged her sister and comforted her softly, "Agnes, it's okay, I'm just a suggestion... You don't need to make a decision right away, we still have time, and he can wait. This It's your business. I can only give you some suggestions. It's you who makes the final decision. You're tired enough tonight, so go to bed early..."

Agnes threw herself into her sister's arms, then kept moving her head slightly, rubbing her sister's chest and abdomen, as if to borrow warmth.

"Thank you... I will think about it carefully and give you an answer."

Then, she suggested to her sister in a low voice, "Shall we go back? It's been a long time since I've been away from home. I miss my parents a little bit."

"Okay, I think we've done our due diligence, and there's nothing else we need to do here." Alice gently stroked her sister's hair in her arms, and then agreed. "Edgar and I will resign to His Majesty tomorrow and then choose a day to go back."

"Really?" Agnes was overjoyed, then broke away from her sister's arms, and then looked at her sister with joy.

Alice just smiled and nodded.

According to her calculations, during this period of time, she and her husband have won the favor of the two majesties here. What needs to be done has been done. Now it is time to go back as soon as possible to complete the tasks assigned by their majesties - and harvest the fruits of victory at the same time. .

When she thought of this, Alice's originally calm heart couldn't help but stir up waves.

=======================

As promised, the next day, Alice and her husband expressed their desire to go home to Aiglon.

Aigron himself knew that the couple had been staying here for a long time, and they must have a lot of things to deal with back home, so he readily agreed to their request and allowed them to leave on another day.

However, although he understood their difficulties, Aigron was still a little reluctant to give up.

After all, in this remote place, he faces familiar faces every day, and for the sake of safety, the scope of his activities is very small. The visit of Edgar and his wife brought precious freshness, making his life more interesting. A lot more interesting.

Because of his reluctance to leave, in Aigron's eyes, even Edgar became a lot more pleasing to the eye.

"Edgar, are you feeling well?" Aigron asked. “Can you handle the bumps along the way?”

"Your Majesty, I am completely healed..." Edgar cleverly concealed his embarrassment, and then replied respectfully. "With your permission, we can leave tomorrow."

That time because he was too drunk, he missed the boat party hosted by the Agrons. As a last resort, Alice had to help him find an excuse for a sudden serious illness.

In order to cover up the lie, he had to live in seclusion during this period, showing himself to be physically weak, but it made him depressed - so he was more nostalgic for the colorful world of Paris than the Alice sisters, and it was as if he was ready to return home.

"Tomorrow? What a pity..." Aigron sighed, "However, there is always a time for parting between friends, and I won't force you to stay - I just hope that the next time we meet, we can always Get together."

"That's natural, Your Majesty." Alice replied with a smile, "We are waiting for you to come to the loyal capital. From now on, no one can stop you!"

Aigron looked at Alice and couldn't help but laugh.

"Madam, then I also wish you all the best."

Only the two of them know what Aigron is referring to - at this moment, Lady Alice is holding his handwritten letter, and will handle her family's affairs as his client with full authority.

"I would like to lend you your kind words, Your Majesty." Alice nodded slightly, "I will handle everything properly and I will give you an account when the time comes."

"Of course! Of course..." Aiglon laughed, while Edgar looked confused.

After laughing for a while, Aigron asked again. "By the way, where's Miss Agnes?"

The couple looked at each other, and finally Alice answered, "She... was a little out of shape today, so she didn't come over."

Aigron's face suddenly darkened.

"Sorry...Your Majesty..." Alice apologized quickly.

"No, there is no need to apologize, ma'am. It's me who should apologize... It was my negligence that caused an unexpected disturbance and caused her unreasonable trouble. I'm very sorry." Aigron sighed. Tone, "She didn't deserve this."

This incident aroused anger in Alice's heart again, but she didn't dare to show it on the surface.

"Your Majesty, our family is your ministers, and naturally we are also the ministers of Her Majesty the Princess. In this case, no matter what your two majesties do, in our opinion, it is absolutely wrong. It's just that my sister is not used to serving you. I have not established this kind of awareness, so I can't bear a small blow. Please rest assured that I have comforted her and she will be fine."

"That's good." Aigron sighed again.

Edgar watched the conversation between his wife and the young man with cold eyes, and was secretly happy in his heart. How could he not understand that his wife was obviously deprecating herself, but secretly she was accusing Princess Teresa of being willful.

After all, he had offended Princess Teresa a long time ago. Her Royal Highness had never had a good attitude towards him, and she certainly would not have it in the future, so she was happy to see a rift between the Agrons.

He understood his father's thinking. As the saying goes, wealth can be found in danger. Instead of trying to please an Austrian princess with her own confidant, it would be better to provide a backer herself - Agnes is the guarantee of their family's future prosperity and wealth.

Agnes suffered a setback last night, but on the other hand, she also gained His Majesty's sympathy as a victim. His Majesty will only miss her more - for Edgar, he doesn't care anyway. I feel sorry for my wife and sister, the harvest is enough and satisfying.

"Speaking of this..." After a pause, Mrs. Alice changed the topic again, "Your Majesty, I told Agnes about your plan last night-"

"Oh? Is there a showdown?" Aigron was slightly surprised, "What is Agnes's opinion?"

"Agnes was surprised, so she couldn't make a decision right away." Alice shook her head regretfully, "You know...she is a little slow in this regard."

"It doesn't matter. Isn't that the same? If everyone is as smart as you, it will give me a headache-" Aigron waved his hand to show that he didn't care.

"Are you accusing me of being too scheming, Your Majesty?" Alice seemed annoyed, and then asked Aiglon.

"No, I don't mean that. Prudence and meticulousness, as well as commensurate humility, are all part of your cuteness." Aigron replied with a smile, "I just said that cuteness cannot be the same. You and Agnes is just right."

"Everyone says that Emperor Franz is old, and the Austrian court has become cold, numb, and unreasonable, and it has lost the playfulness that we French people often have..." Alice covered her mouth and laughed softly. "Now it seems that this rumor is exaggerated. Your Majesty, you are very good at this."

"I can assure you that this rumor is actually correct. My grandfather was indeed an indifferent old man, and his court was deserted and lonely. But after all, I am still a Frenchman." Aigron replied with a smile, "So there are some things I You can teach yourself without a teacher.”

"I don't know if I should be proud of this, Your Majesty..." Alice laughed again.

The two of them talked as if they were almost friends, laughing and talking freely. This was naturally because some of the qualities displayed by Mrs. Alice were recognized by him.

"Your Majesty, based on what I know about Agnes, she is just a little confused right now. I believe that when she understands her situation and figures out what is best for herself, she will agree then." She smiled. After a while, Alice regained her seriousness, "And, I will let her make the best choice."

"Well, then I leave this matter to you, madam, I am convinced that you will bring me the best results-" Aigron responded immediately.

After all, there is still some time now, so Alice can just spend more time convincing her.

Then, the two sides chatted for a few more words, and then the Edgars prepared to leave.

Aigron looked at the couple in front of him and suddenly made his final request.

"I want to meet her and say goodbye to her in person, is that okay with me?"

"Of course, Your Majesty." Alice agreed immediately. "How about you come with me now?"

Since Alice took the initiative to invite, Aigron no longer had any scruples. He followed Alice all the way to Agnes's dormitory.

"Agnes, it's me." Agron knocked on the door proactively, and then explained his purpose of coming, "I heard that you were leaving, and I wanted to say goodbye to you -"

The door opened quickly.

Then Agnes's unpainted face appeared at the door.

Aigron looked at her appearance, and then compared it with the dressed-up appearance in his memory last night, and found that he liked both looks.

"Agnes...I'm sorry..."

"No need to be sorry, sir, it's not your fault." Agnes shook her head. "I say goodbye not to vent my anger on you, but I miss home."

"That's good. At least you have family to miss and worry about-" Aiglon sighed. "I hope you can have all this in the future."

"Of course." Agnes replied without hesitation. "I will protect them forever."

For a moment, the two people were silent, and Aigron didn't know what to say.

"Why don't you come in and sit down?" Agnes suggested.

Agron's eyes widened in surprise - Agnes would never have been so nice to him before.

However, he just smiled and shook his head and rejected the proposal.

He just reached out and hugged the girl as a friend as a farewell - and Agnes did not resist.

"We will meet again, Agnes," he whispered in her ear. "We will have a lot of time together then."

Agnes glared at him, but she didn't seem surprised and didn't bother to scold him anymore.

She just pushed the young man away gently.

"I thought you would say more nice things, but... I shouldn't have expected anything from you."

Then, she bent her knees slightly and saluted Aigron gently, "Goodbye, Your Majesty."
