Eagle’s Glory

After putting away the note written by Aigron, Teresa walked back to her desk, and looked at the moonlit night outside the window.

The cold moonlight was falling on the ground at this time, and the garden outside the window was a lone figure, as if there were elves hiding in it.

Teresa opened the window, then took a deep breath to calm down the excitement in her heart slightly.

In all fairness, the stories written by His Royal Highness are a bit immature, and of course they cannot be compared with her favorite Byron and Goethe, but he is still young after all, and it is rare to have such a talent——Goethe wrote "The Troubles of Young Werther" Isn't it the same when "

With the talent he has shown now, he definitely deserves the evaluation of "the future is promising".

"It would be a pity if such a good story is so unknown and only circulated by two or three people." Theresa suddenly sighed again.

Didn't even he himself have to hide here because of a trick of fate?

What a pity.

For a moment, Teresa saw a young man's smile flashing through the window.

She also didn't know what kind of feelings she had for that Highness, was it pity for his unfortunate situation, or admiration for his outstanding civil and martial arts, or mixed with admiration for his handsome appearance?

Maybe both.

No doubt he was troubled and resentful. But things would have been very different if I had been around—Teresa thought to herself with a little chivalry.

If I can help him get out of the mud and help him gain a foothold and even flourish in this country that was once hostile to him, wouldn't that be writing a legendary story? And he can even exist as the heroine in the story.

She recalled the scene of the two dancing in the splendid palace, until he grabbed her waist to prevent her from falling, and then the two looked at each other.

Teresa's face flushed slightly, she would never admit it to anyone else, she made up her mind at that moment...

72 Confessions (Page 1/8),. determined.

How like the ending of a fairy tale at that moment, the prince and princess lived happily together.

It's a pity... It seems that someone is bewitching behind the scenes, disturbing the prince's mind, making him hesitate, and destroying the proper ending of the story.

However, that will only be a small twist in the story after all-after all, the story must have twists and turns to be interesting.

She blinked again, the night was too late, it was time to rest.

Then Teresa closed the window again.

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

Aigron didn't know how much his gift would cause waves in the family of Archduke Karl, but he was sure Teresa would be satisfied with this gift.

The teachers and senior counselors around him tried their best to persuade him to act in his own interests; and Metternich himself had clearly told him that if he did not accept the kindness bestowed by His Majesty, Then he is proven disloyal and no longer worthy of better treatment.

Therefore, in order to reassure those around him, and to temporarily maintain his ability to act during this period of time, he can only pretend to be courteous to Teresa first.

But he knew that after all, the core interests in his eyes were different from those of the teachers, so he could only pretend to be courteous and perfunctory.

He knew that what he did was extremely unfair to Teresa, and I was sorry for this girl who had always been very friendly to him, but the current situation forced him to do so.

In order to dispel the depression in my heart,

He changed his indifferent attitude and actively devoted himself to his own creation. Princess Sophie was also very concerned. Although she couldn't go to the theater all the time, she kept a close watch on the release of the script.

On this day, they came to the box of the theater together to watch the rehearsal of the script.

This is the last rehearsal before the show.

While holding Princess Sophie's hand, Aigron was seriously admiring the dance...  

72 Confessions (page 2/8),. The performance on the stage, Chanel is now on the stage, although she is only playing a small supporting role, but it can be seen that she is very hardworking and does not want to disappoint the host at all, so she is very devoted to the performance.

"Aigron, you must have a sense of accomplishment seeing your hard work come true little by little?" Princess Sophie asked with a smile.

Now she is very used to the feeling of two people holding hands, without any discomfort.

"A little bit." Aigron nodded, "It is precisely because of this that I am especially grateful to you... Without you, all this would not have been possible."

"Don't say that, it's a rare opportunity to spend money on something you like." Princess Sophie smiled happily, "This is the common treasure of our sister and brother Memmingen, I spend money to Buy it, you won't feel bad at all."

"It's really strange... Originally, I just thought that as long as it can be released, it will be considered as my wish fulfilled, but now I really hope that it will become popular and let more people watch it." Aigron suddenly smiled wryly, "Humans probably You can't get rid of this kind of vanity, it's always hard to be satisfied."

"No, this is not vanity, but the pride in your heart! You have set a standard for yourself in your heart, and you are afraid that you will not be able to achieve it, and your confidence in yourself will be shaken." Princess Sophie stroked her with the other hand. Touched the boy's cheek, "But, Aigron, don't worry... From my point of view, this work is already good, and the actors are working hard. Became an instant hit, and I'm sure the audience will love it."

Then, she blinked playfully, "Don't worry, I hope you will succeed more than anyone else, because then I can get back my investment, right?"

Seeing Princess Sophie's playful smile, Aigron couldn't help but stare blankly.

Her heart seemed to have been revived, to her younger self again.

No, she is also very young now, only in her early twenties... It's just that she was taken away by the indifferent court...

72 Confessions (page 3/8),. Girls' time only.

"I have a bigger pride." He stared at Princess Sophie, and then blurted out. "That is, let you find the fun."

Seeing the young man's beast-like gaze for a moment, Princess Sophie let out a small exclamation, and then wanted to withdraw her hand to escape, but how could her half-hearted struggle be able to match the young man's strength? As a result, in an instant, she fell into Aigron's arms again, and then the two kissed together again.

Without making any sound, the two just kissed like this. Sophie seemed to have gotten used to the new way of getting along with the two of them, and all the conflicts were just symbolic.

Habits, habits are really scary, no matter how shocking and intolerable things are, once people get used to them, it is not surprising that they will eventually become commonplace...

After a long time, the two separated again, and Sophie quickly returned to normal.

Not even a single complaint, as if nothing had happened just now.

"I heard that Grand Duke Karl took you out for a run?" She turned her gaze back to the stage and asked casually.

"Yes." Aegron nodded. "He took me to veterans' gatherings."

"He really cares about you." Sophie laughed mockingly, "Could it be that he put himself in the role of father-in-law in advance?"

This is indeed a fact, but of course Aigron couldn't admit it himself, so he had to remain silent.

"Aigron, you must remember what you promised me..." Sophie's tone became a little troubled, "I'm not saying that you can never get married, I just want you not to sink yourself into a pit so early, and stay with me first. By my side... I will help you find a more suitable candidate in the future..."

"I remember my promise." Aigron nodded, "But I still don't understand why you are so hostile to Teresa? If you have been in contact with her, you will understand, she is a very nice person .”

"You can ask this question, that's the reason." Sophie turned...

72 Confessions (page 4/8),. Turning his head, he frowned at him.

How could the young man in front of him understand her true thoughts?

She liked this boy, and she was infatuated with him to a deeper level than it appeared on the surface, so it became more and more difficult for her to accept him leaving her. But she knew in her heart that as the boy grows up, he will eventually get married and have children, and the continuation of the Bonaparte family bloodline is his destined responsibility—so, she wants to delay for a while, and find a new one for him later. A wife who is noble but submissive and has no opinion. In this way, no one will hinder the future communication between the two.

She herself felt that this kind of thinking was very immoral, so how could she be willing to say it? But in any case, this is what she set her mind to do.

From this point of view, Teresa is definitely not suitable. Although the two have never been in contact before, she has already seen it from the first conversation. Teresa is by no means a silly girl who will swallow her anger. Self-assessment, so...especially not.

If the nightmare really came true, she would lose all the fun she had so hard to get.

In addition, all the conditions she had were so suitable for young people, which made Sophie even more disgusted.

Originally, she thought that everything was over with His Majesty's trip, but she didn't expect that the girl was still lingering, and even urged her father to continue to promote the marriage contract.

However, she didn't have many ways to stop it, after all, it was His Majesty's will - and she could order anyone arbitrarily, but she couldn't order Grand Duke Karl anyway.

Just thinking about it made her a little upset.

In the end, she could only pin her hopes on the young man keeping his promise.

She couldn't speak out about these considerations, and in the end she could only stubbornly insist on her own opinion.

She stretched out her hand and pinched the clothes on the young man's chest, "I have done so much for you, and I have tried everything to please you. If you have the heart, obey me this time."

"Okay...I promise you." Looking at Sophie period...

72 Confessions (page 5/8),. Looking forward, Egron finally nodded. Anyway, he did not think about staying in Austria and marrying Teresa, so this is not a lie, "I will never fulfill the wishes of His Majesty the Emperor and Metternich." .”

"Since you said it, then I'll believe you." Sophie nodded overjoyed immediately, and then she took the initiative to kiss the boy's forehead, "You are willing to resist their arrangements for me, and I will never Will make you sacrifice your own future for nothing, and no matter what they do, I will do everything I can to help you... Eggron, I love you."

Joy and fear were entangled, breaking through the boundaries of reason, and Sophie finally said what had been lingering in her heart but never said it.

It's finally here.

The young man smiled, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and then responded with the same joy. "I love you too."

What is the price of this warm moment? When will it end? He doesn't know, but he has long known that everything must have an end——

On that day, how should we face it?

He has no time to think about it, at least enjoy the moment first.

They stuck together again, both a little confused and infatuated with each other.

"I'm looking forward to the carnival in the near future." Sophie leaned on his shoulder and said suddenly, "When the time comes, we will change our clothes, forget our original identities, and walk around like ordinary citizens... Aegron, at that time Just take me with you, you can go anywhere, and it’s good to let you decide once in a while, so I’ll feel pleasantly surprised.”

Aegron was a little surprised, but nodded quickly.

"I'm also looking forward to that day."

For a moment, he suddenly thought, what if he escaped at that time, or took Sophie away with him?

The idea was so tempting that he was instantly tempted.

But soon, reason poured cold water on passion and made him dispel this idea.

Although it was a change of clothes, it was definitely impossible for two people to just run into the street like this,...

72 Confessions (page 6/8),. The person in charge of guarding and monitoring was still there. Even if he really took Sophie away, it was absolutely impossible to escape the search.

Moreover, is she really willing to abandon all reputation, status, and bear all the infamy for herself? Even if she wanted to, he couldn't possibly want to.

He already owed her too much, and he could only make up for it slowly in the future, instead of dragging her into the abyss for his own whim.

So, don't have any more illusions, silly boy... all costs can be paid for by success later. He said silently in his heart.

However, despite being controlled by reason, Aegron felt extremely resentful in his heart. The feeling that he couldn't do what he wanted to do really made him uncomfortable.

Just make up for this resentment with carnival.

Let's have a real fun at Mardi Gras...

He looked at Sophie, then made up his mind.

Although the two are so close, there is still the last step that has not been realized. He must reach the end point. Only in this way can he make up his wish.

So what did Sophie think? No matter how delusional he was, if Sophie didn't want to, he would never be able to force it.

"It's good to let you decide once in a while, so I can feel pleasantly surprised"... He recalled this sentence again.

That's enough.

Well... great.

He silently made up his mind.

Unknowingly, the rehearsal ended, and Aigron followed Sophie down the stairs, preparing to leave.

During the gap, Chanel walked up to him and handed him a small bag.

"Your Highness, this is the money I got from pawning gems for you at the pawn shop." Chanel whispered, "I'm going to change clothes, so I'll give it to you first."

"Okay, you've worked hard, Chanel." Aigron nodded with a smile, encouraging his loyal followers.

Yes, that's what he wants to do.

No matter how warm and lingering, it can't shake his will. Now that the plan has started...

72 Confessions (page 7/8),. start, it must be done. And the rest is...while all the good things are still lingering.
