Eagle’s Glory

After the maid Chanel narrated his life experience, Aigron finally put down his guard and decided to believe her.

Chanel's narration is at least logically reasonable, and her monstrous hatred is absolutely impossible to fake - and even in the worst case, it doesn't matter if she is deceived, anyway, she has nothing to lose now that's it.

For the first time, he had someone he could trust and drive by his side, and he inevitably felt excited, but his frail body could hardly bear this passion.

He knows that all this is just the beginning, the most important thing for him now is to keep his body in good condition, only a healthy self is qualified to talk about freedom.

After drinking the broth, his body had already warmed up a lot. He raised his eyes and looked out the window. It was still dark night sky outside.

He looked at Chanel again, she had wiped away her tears just now, and finally maintained her superficial calm, but her blue eyes were bloodshot, enough to feel her physical exhaustion.

She took care of herself until the early hours of the morning, and then experienced emotional ups and downs. She must be very tired.

"Chanel, I don't have anything else for you to do tonight, you can take a rest." So he said.

"It's okay Your Highness, you haven't replied yet, I need to take care of you." Chanel smiled.

"Since I'm awake and still able to eat, it means I've passed the dangerous period, and I'll just rest for a while. And you need to rest now, and I will continue to rely on you tomorrow." Aigron gave the order .

After a pause, he added another sentence in a gentle tone completely different from the indifference just now.

"Chanel, as long as you are loyal to me, I will fulfill your wish for you. So you should rest now. I need a healthy you to continue to serve me. This is very important to me."

After hearing this sentence, Chanel's eyes widened in surprise, a blush flashed across her face, and she bowed.

"Okay, as ordered, Your Highness."

Then, she sat on the sofa bench that Aegron used to sit on, and then leaned down on the armrest.

She was indeed very tired, so after only a moment, her breathing became very even, her back rose and fell rhythmically, and she was obviously asleep.

Looks like the young Avenger is pretty easy to coax... Aggron thought.

That means she's an easy guy to work with—or command—but it also means she's not the type to be brilliantly quick-witted.

But it doesn't matter, now he needs loyalty more than cleverness, and people who are too clever and scheming are not so easy to use.

Looking at the sleeping maid, he suddenly felt drowsy again.

It's time to rest, let's think about tomorrow's events after dawn... He closed his eyes again.

Although the pain on his body is still tormenting him, compared to yesterday or any day before, he is in a much happier mood. He knows that there has been a little ripple in his stagnant court life, and perhaps this means that there will be more in the future. stormy sea.

This is what he expected.

If there is a storm, let it come more violently, and destroy the world!

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

When Eggron regained consciousness again, he felt as if his face was being gently stroked.

At first he thought it was Chanel, but when he opened his eyes, he found that he had guessed wrong, the person sitting by his bed and stroking him was Princess Sophie.

It was already bright, and all the curtains in the room were opened, and the warm sunlight poured into the spacious suite from several directions.

It illuminated all the furnishings inside, and at the same time, it seemed to add a layer of radiance to Her Royal Highness.

But from the side of her eye sockets, she could still find traces of fatigue, probably she didn't sleep well last night.

"I heard that you are out of danger, so I came to see you." After seeing him wake up, Princess Sophie smiled, "Aigron, you really can't imagine that when you open your eyes How excited I am...God finally saved me from making an irreparable blunder!"

"I'm also very grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to experience the feeling of waking up from your touch." Aigron smiled, "It's very comfortable, Your Highness."

"You're looking more and more like a prodigal grandson!" Sophie glared at him complainingly.

However, she soon showed a relaxed and relieved smile. "But at least you can talk, and that's better than anything else."

Then, she didn't speak, but looked around the boy with a smile, as if confirming that he had come back to life without any defects.

"I'm sorry." After laughing for a while, Princess Sophie leaned over slightly, took his shoulders, and then gently hugged him in her arms, "Because my willfulness caused you to fall into this situation, I can only I impudently ask you to forgive me."

The boy froze unnaturally, and managed to calm himself down from the turmoil in his mind.

"It's not a matter of forgiveness or not. You originally proposed hunting just to help me relax. The accident that happened later was just my bad luck, not your responsibility." Aigron rested his head on the shoulder of Her Highness the Princess. , and then saw Chanel standing in the middle of the room.

At this moment, she had completely recovered from the excitement of last night, and stood behind Her Royal Highness expressionlessly, as if waiting for a new order from her master.

Everything last night was not a dream, great! He was secretly pleased, and then blinked at her, while Chanel bowed to him.

"No, I should have been the unlucky one...you endured all this pain on my behalf..." Princess Sophie, who couldn't see his small movements, continued to say in a guilty tone, "If you didn't react immediately , perhaps I might have even been... Eggron, you were a hero yesterday."

"You must not say that. I just did what a person who has been favored by you many times and who is your friend must do. If this is called a hero, then this title is too cheap Yes." Eggron replied with a smile, "I'm more concerned, now you should believe what I said that day..."

Princess Sophie let go of her embrace, then put her arms around the boy's shoulders, and looked at the boy again. At this moment, his smile was so pale and feeble, yet with a weak charm.

Ever since she came to this magnificent palace and became a member of the Habsburg family, every time she saw this melancholy child, she would always have a protective desire rooted in motherhood, and even a little chivalrous spirit, I always want to do something for my poor brother-in-law.

But yesterday, she clearly felt that this child had grown up, and he could try to protect himself—even he did so without hesitation.

God knows with what force the melancholy, frail and unfortunate child must have burst out at that moment, tore himself off, and used his body to cushion himself as both fell off the horse.

He said that he was reluctant to bear himself, but now he has proved it with practical actions.

"I believe what you say." Princess Sophie nodded solemnly, and then she let out a long sigh, "Well, before I knew it, our Eggron became so cute!"

After sighing, she lowered her head slightly and kissed the boy's broad and smooth forehead.

"I really don't know which princess in the future will be so lucky to be your wife, she must be the happiest princess in the world..."

Although she only touched it superficially, Aigron only felt his heart beat slightly faster, and his mind fluttered for a moment.

It's sad to say it, although he has lived for almost forty years, even in his last life, he has never been in love.

"No princess would be so stupid as to marry a prince who has neither kingdom nor treasure." He forced himself to restrain himself, and then made a joke.

"It might be." Sophie blinked and replied with a smile, "There will always be some silly princesses who fall in love with princes who have neither kingdom nor treasure just like my sister... No matter how hard you try, you will always get one..."

As soon as the words came out, both of them suddenly felt a little embarrassed, after all, there seemed to be a little more ambiguity in this sentence.

Aigron looked at the other party again.

Although she is an aunt in name, she is only six years older than Aigron, and she is only in her early twenties after all, which is the time when a woman is most radiant. Perhaps because of the light, or perhaps because she was moved by yesterday's heroic deed, the way she looked at herself today was a little gentler than usual, as if rippling with dots of lake light.

At this time, a sudden sound from the door interrupted the embarrassment between the two.

The two turned their heads at the same time, and found that several people appeared at the door of the room, and the leader was Prime Minister Metternich.

Sophie frowned slightly, obviously displeased with his sudden arrival.

And Egron nodded to His Excellency the Prime Minister expressionlessly.

"Your Highness, I'm here to visit you." Metternich also nodded, and then walked in quickly, "I'm glad to hear that you are out of danger."

"Thank you." Eggron replied. "I hope my accident has troubled you little."

"It's a bit troublesome to say that there were rumors in Vienna yesterday, but now that you are awake, the rumors will soon subside." While speaking, the Prime Minister walked to the bedside, his eyes wandering around, and confirmed Egron's current injury , "However, although you are out of danger, you'd better recuperate at ease recently, don't exercise strenuously, and recover your health as soon as possible."

"Okay, I will, don't worry." Aegron nodded gratefully.

Only then did he realize that although it was unlucky for him to be injured by falling off a horse, it was also an unexpected gain from another perspective—at least for now, he didn't have to worry that someone would force him to go to a military academy or barracks.

Thinking of this, he felt a little secretly glad.

Then, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and there was an uncomfortable feeling.

He glanced at it and found that the old man on the opposite side was observing him secretly. The old man's gaze swept over his arm like a falcon, which made him feel a little scared.

wrong! He was suspicious of me, he suspected that I fell off the horse on purpose, and used self-injury to avoid being forcibly arranged. Eggron suddenly woke up.

There is no doubt that it was an unexpected situation that day, but because the timing was so ingenious, it is very normal for the old and cunning Metternich to suspect that he injured himself. He must be very suspicious, why did he need to do this because of such a small matter .

So what should we do?

Explanation is meaningless. A person like him has been in the diplomatic arena of intrigue and deceit for many years. He doesn't know how many lies he has told, and he doesn't know how many lies he has seen others tell. Any confidence, if he doubted so much, it would be useless to say good things about himself.

Therefore, it's better to face it calmly and let him think whatever he likes. Anyway, now that he is injured, he can't do anything to him.

Thinking of this, Eggron felt relieved.

After the two looked at each other for a while, Prime Minister Metternich nodded.

"It seems that you are indeed out of danger, which is great. Now that you need to rest, I won't disturb you any more."

"I'm very touched that you took the time to visit me, thank you." Aigron thanked him indifferently, "You still have too many important things to do, it's not worth wasting too much time on me."

"So, goodbye." Metternich nodded again, and then walked out of the room.

Just as the Prime Minister was about to leave in the corridor, he suddenly heard a greeting from behind.

"gentlemen."

Surprised, he turned around and found Princess Sophie chasing after her.

Although he was a little impatient, he still showed a pleasant expression. "Any orders, Your Highness?"

"You just looked at Franz as if you were looking at a criminal, which made me very dissatisfied." Princess Sophie looked at Metternich and said word by word, "I caused everything yesterday, he I was injured to protect me, if you want to blame, you should blame me, please don't embarrass a child."

If I could blame you, I would have blamed you long ago! thought Metternich.

"Where you are, life is always full of accidents, and it's not your fault."

"Frantz deserves to be treated better. I hope that I will take care of him while he is recuperating recently. You should stop arranging inexplicable activities for him." The princess frowned, and then continued, "Yes At that time, I really felt that some people can't bully their fathers, but they bully their children, and they are really worthless."

This arrogant, stupid woman! I knew that Bavaria has no good things, so I shouldn't have spared these traitors from the Rhine Federation! Metternich cursed in his heart.

"I'll think about it, Your Highness." He left cold words, then turned and left.
