Eagle’s Glory

Under the brilliant lights, Aigron leaned against the railing and looked towards the stage.

He didn't bother to find his cousin in the auditorium, because he knew that cousin must be watching him at this moment.

Look, watch! I'm the one you owe your allegiance to!

He was overwhelmed in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm, watching the performance on stage like the most attentive audience.

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden?" Sophie was a little curious about his actions, so she walked to his side and watched the performance together, "Aren't you still absent-minded just now?"

"Since it's all here, I think it's better for me to watch it again." Aigron replied casually, "After all, this is our hard work, and the efforts of the actors are also worthy of appreciation."

Sophie was standing next to him at the railing together, and his cousin would undoubtedly be able to see Sophie's face clearly with the help of the light, but he didn't think it was a big problem.

"I remember when you said that." Sophie picked up the topic, "These actors have indeed performed better than I imagined. At first, when the manager said that we would use a bunch of unknown actors, I was worried. ! Turns out they worked really hard, huh... Maybe it's because of Chanel's role in supervising it."

"So, how about we reward them?" Aigron suggested.

"Good idea!" Sophie suddenly became interested. "Anyway, this script made us earn some money by accident. Why don't we give them the money as a reward..."

"Well, anyway, I don't need this little money." Aigron thought for a while, then nodded, "By the way, why don't we go to the backstage to say goodbye after the curtain ends, and thank them for their efforts."

"Yes." Sophie agreed to him without thinking, "I think these actors should also be curious about who the creators of the script, the Memmingen siblings, are?"

Her face was full of excitement, clearly looking forward to seeing herself and Aigron in their new identities.

However, it never occurred to her that the young man actually had some other purpose in making this proposal.

Aigron didn't say any more, but continued to watch the performance on the stage.

Soon, the performance ended, the curtain fell slowly, and the audience slowly left after thunderous applause.

"Let's go there." Aigron turned his head and suggested to Sophie.

"My darling, did you forget something...?" Sophie didn't act immediately, but blinked her eyes.

Her voice is very soft, and it seems to be full of endless temptation.

Eggron's heart skipped a beat, he didn't expect Sophie to be so cute when she took the initiative to flirt with him.

He approached Sophie with a smile, then led her into the shadows, then bowed his head and kissed her.

After parting their lips, the two walked out of the box arm in arm, then walked to the first floor, and then came to the back of the stage. At this time, the actors were preparing to go to the changing room to change back to their usual clothes.

"I'm going to say goodbye to the actors." Aigron said to Sophie, "Speak to the actresses."

"Are you really...what are you afraid of? I'm not such a small-minded person." Sophie rolled her eyes, and then laughed happily, "My Eggron is not the kind who will be fascinated by vulgar fans Idiot, I still have this confidence."

After all, she still happily accepted Aigron's proposal.

Aigron winked at Chanel, signaling that she must find a way to prolong the time, Chanel nodded understandingly.

Aigron said goodbye to Sophie temporarily with peace of mind, and then came to the changing room of the actors.

The sudden appearance of the young man surprised the actors at first, but after being introduced by the theater staff, they soon understood that this was Mr. Memmingen, the creator of the play they had just performed.

This sudden news caused even greater consternation, because the actors couldn't believe it,

The grown-up tragedy they had just staged was written by a seemingly innocuous young man.

After a while, they finally accepted the fact, and then they all paid tribute to Aigron, and Aigron thanked them one by one, thanking them for their dedication to the performance, allowing his script to be performed the way he wanted to see it.

Then, Aigron continued to chat with them for a while, talking about his experience with the script and his vision for the next script.

When chatting with them, Aigron suddenly felt very happy. No one here knew that he was the son of Napoleon, and no one called him His Highness. Everyone gave him only respect, and all this respect was not based on his so-called The "blood" got it, but got it by his own talent.

This really gave him confidence.

Of course, these actors are also very puzzled about the identity of the young man, because by looking at him, it can be seen that he has received a very good education and has an extraordinary bearing, and he will definitely not come from an ordinary family.

But the actors didn't ask. After all, there are too many people using pseudonyms in this era. Of course, these sophisticated people will not offend the taboos of the nobles just out of curiosity.

Unfortunately, this was destined to be only a short meeting, and the boy knew that he had more important things to do.

"Goodbye, everyone." Aigron bid farewell to the actors, "I hope that you will all become more famous actors in the future. What you have shown makes me think you are worthy of people's praise."

"I also wish you can write more touching works, sir." An actor bowed to the young man, "You can achieve such achievements at such a young age, and I firmly believe that as long as you continue to work hard, you will be famous in history. "

"Thank you." Eggron smiled, then turned and left.

After opening the door of the changing room, he took a closer look and found that there was no one in the corridor.

He breathed a sigh of relief, then moved aside, hiding himself between the gap between the stairs and the storage room.

As he expected, there seemed to be a black living creature surging in the shadows, quickly approaching him.

Soon, a figure wearing a black hat appeared in front of Aigron.

Then, the other party raised the brim of his hat, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

With hardly any identification required, they recognized each other.

coming!

Aigron felt that his blood was almost on fire, but he restrained his excitement, pushed open the door of the storage room, and brought the other party in together.

There was a lot of dust in the storage room, and there was a musty smell, which was very unpleasant, but Aigron didn't care at all, and he looked at the young man across from him again.

And the other party was also looking at Aigron, and seemed to be equally excited.

Immediately afterwards, the two embraced suddenly.

"His Majesty!"

"My cousin!"

They greeted each other in French.

Aigron's voice choked, and tears appeared in his eyes.

Although most of his performance at the moment is acting, but there is also a little bit of true feelings from the heart-he has suppressed his feelings for too long for many years, and at this time a real "relative" came by his side, and he came to rescue him How could he not be excited?

No matter how much selfishness the other party has, in short, he is very grateful to the other party.

After hugging for a moment, he let go of each other.

"In a desperate situation, the only thing we can rely on is our relatives..." Eggron sighed, "Louis, we don't have much time, so let me finish as soon as possible."

"Please speak, Your Majesty!" The young man nodded, "I will remember every word you said."

"Very good." Aigron nodded, "First of all, I don't know how many rumors the outside world have about me with ulterior motives, but I can tell you clearly that I have never thought of giving up my identity, let alone giving up The throne, everything I do... everything is for the revival of my lost empire. Please don't believe the rumors, follow me, for our family, and move towards this goal."

"I see, Your Majesty." The young man nodded again emphatically, "With your words, I am relieved! As long as you don't die, the empire will not die."

Agron smiled. "How many people do you have?"

"My financial resources are limited, and Austria has taken great precautions against us, so only a dozen of us have come to Vienna." Napoleon-Louis Bonaparte didn't talk nonsense, but replied directly, "But these people are Absolutely loyal people, including my own brother."

"Yeah, another cousin of mine." Aigron continued to smile, "I believe in you, the previous generation of our family has done enough great things, and it's time for our generation to do it next!"

Then, he changed the subject, "Louis, I order you, try your best to help me escape, I want to escape from Austria, I can't do anything here."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Louis straightened his waist and assured in a low voice, "I will do my best."

"This kind of thing can't be done by brute force. After all, no matter how powerful we are alone, we can't beat a cavalry battalion, and there are hundreds of cavalry battalions in Austria." Aigron shook his head, and then said his plan, "I thought about it , my best place to escape is here, you will create chaos in the theater, and then I will jump directly from the third floor and mix with the audience to escape—and during this time, you will first help me conceive an escape route after escaping from Vienna , and prepare the necessary supplies and hiding places."

"I will prepare." Louis immediately agreed, "But Your Majesty, it will take some time, and..."

His expression showed a little embarrassment, "And some money, we have some money outside, but we dare not show up casually after we came to Austria, so now we don't have much left on hand."

"This is indeed a necessary prudence!" Aigron glanced at him approvingly, "It's okay, I will find a way to get Chanel to give you money, don't save, prepare a little more! As long as the goal is achieved, this cost is nothing What is it. As for the time, I have been waiting for so long, and it’s okay to wait a little longer, but you must hurry, the sooner the time is better for us! The crown of France is already crumbling, and I don’t want to wait for someone else to pick it up. Go eat some leftovers!"

"Okay." Under Eggron's urging, Louis straightened up again, "Your Majesty, leave it to me, and I will take care of everything."

"Very good..." Aigron nodded with a smile, "Okay, let's go here first."

"How can we contact each other in the future?" Louis asked.

"The less times we contact, the better. Unless it's the most important ones, you don't have to tell me." Aigron carefully explained to him, "As for the most important ones, you can pretend to be a theater and send them to me. letter, and then send it to the following address... Remember, you must use codes and argots."

Then, he told Louis about his communication with the theater and the fact that the hotel booked a room as a mailing address.

"Your Majesty...you are truly gifted by God!" After hearing all this, Louis looked at Aigron with a changed expression, "I never expected you to prepare so many things in an orderly manner..."

All the traits displayed by this underage cousin really shocked him a little.

"If you've lived like me since you were a child, you'll have a lot of time to think about these things." Aegron replied half-jokingly and half bitterly.

Then, he patted the other person on the shoulder lightly, "My cousin, everything depends on you from now on, our family is destined not to disappear into history in obscurity... I firmly believe so."

"I also firmly believe so." Louis promised sharply, "Your Majesty, you have given me enough confidence, then I will show my true skills and not let your hard work go to waste."

"Okay, goodbye." Aigron said goodbye to him, "I'll go out first, and you will leave later."

"Goodbye, Your Majesty." Louis bowed to Aigron.

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

While Egron was meeting her cousin, Sophie was also saying goodbye to the actresses.

Just like Aigron just now, these actresses were also very surprised when they saw Miss Memmingen, and then looked at the young authoress with admiration.

Sophie enjoys the respect and admiration of others with her fabricated identity. She has changed her usual style of not being close to others and bossing her around, and she has a good chat with almost everyone.

And Chanel also deliberately pulled her to chat with the actresses, so as to delay the time, so that her master could have a longer time to meet his cousin.

"Okay, let's go back." After an unknown amount of time, Sophie felt a little tired, so she said to Chanel.

"Miss, why don't we go to the audience area again? Maybe we can hear some suggestions from the audience." Chanel was a little anxious, so she proposed. "After all, Mister may be very happy chatting with the actor, and it's not good for us to interrupt rashly."

"It makes sense." Sophie thought for a while and agreed to the proposal, so she took Chanel to the auditorium on the first floor.

Although the auditorium was a little less crowded at this time, most of them were still there. They chatted and waited for another play to be staged after the interval passed.

Just as they came to the corridor near the gate, Sophie stopped suddenly.

She looked at a girl who was leaving the table and was about to walk out of the theater, and suddenly felt a little familiar.

As the distance between the two of them got closer, the outline and appearance of the other party became more and more clear. Although the other party was dressed plainly, Sophie finally recognized him.

It's her? How did she know it was here?

She's following us?

Thoughts came one after another, Sophie felt humiliated at first, followed by a burst of anger.

Are you also worthy to take care of my affairs?

At this moment, the girl opposite also recognized Sophie, she subconsciously stopped, and then wanted to dodge, but found that she seemed to have no way to escape.

Then, she forced herself to calm down, and then walked over with a blank expression, trying to pass by Sophie.

"Stop!" Sophie stopped her just as the two passed by. "Teresa, in your capacity, there shouldn't be any need to run around in a sneaky way to disturb other people's moods, right?"
