The moment Aigron hugged Princess Sophie, everything in the room seemed to freeze, and only the ticking sound of the clock could remind them of the passage of time.
I don't know how long it took, but Aigron finally recovered from his impulsive passion.
Looking into the eyes of Princess Sophie next to him, he even suspected that he was dreaming for a moment - what have I done?
Princess Sophie seemed to have regained her consciousness at the same time. Her breathing suddenly became rapid, and then she grabbed Aiglon's shoulder and pushed hard, then fell backward and stumbled onto the carpet.
Aigron wanted to go over and help her up, but was stopped by her sharp eyes. He could only stop and watched the princess stand up from the ground.
Her Royal Highness the Princess's eyes flickered, her expression was gloomy and uncertain, but she could not see any joy.
"I'm sorry... Your Highness..." Aigron lowered his head, as if he was a child who made a mistake, "I... I just like you too much."
The aftertaste of the kiss still lingered at the corner of his mouth, and his face was flushed.
In fact, theoretically speaking, this was not a very successful kiss. When he kissed him, he was already in a dazed state and had no idea what to do next; and Princess Sophie was even more like this. She seemed to have already
He was paralyzed by shock, and his whole body remained motionless without making any movement.
Then, it ended hastily.
But even so, Aigron's body was still trembling with excitement. The selfless passion of that moment made him feel an indescribable sense of happiness. Besides, he had never had any experience of kissing other women, so he was not qualified.
Compare which way is more comfortable.
All in all, it’s very comfortable!
But the most important thing is to be comfortable. How should I end my impulse now?
Aigron kept looking at Her Highness the Princess, but Her Highness the Princess ignored him. Instead, she straightened out the clothes that he had made a little messy, then turned around and planned to leave.
"Your Highness!" Aigron hurriedly followed her, trying to stop her.
However, Her Royal Highness the Princess still did not respond and continued to walk towards the door.
"I made a mistake. If you want me to pay the price, I am willing to pay any price. I just ask you not to be so cruel as to expel me from your life, because you are my only relative..." Aigron did not force it.
He stopped her and just said to her behind her back in a sad tone, "I can't imagine how I would survive without your care."
His sad plea finally touched Her Royal Highness a little. She stopped slightly, then turned around and looked at the boy again.
"You should rest first." Finally, she left a short sentence, then opened the door and closed it, and left.
Looking at the door that was closed again, Aigron stood there blankly, feeling lost.
"Your Highness..." At this time, Chanel, who had been hiding in the corner without making a sound, finally ran out of the shadows. "You... are you okay?"
"As you can see, I... I'm very good, very good." Aiglon laughed at himself with a wry smile, and then gave the order, "Chanel, bring me some wine, something stronger."
Chanel hesitated.
These days, there are no laws or customs that prohibit minors from drinking. Aristocratic young men like Aigron usually start drinking early, but Aigron usually only drinks a little when necessary, and he does not touch hard liquor.
Don't like this kind of drink that can affect your judgment.
Now that he has made this request, it shows that he is really not at peace in his heart.
However, even though she had some thoughts in her mind, Chanel, who had become accustomed to "obeying orders without compromise", silently brought a bottle of French brandy from outside.
Aigron poured the wine into the wine glass, looked at the sparkling luster of the glass, then brought it to his mouth and took a big gulp.
He almost choked and spat it out, but finally swallowed it whole.
"I did something stupid." Then he said dullly.
Princess Sophie was too important to him. She was a relative who always cared for him and cherished him, and was also a key link in his escape plan. Only with the help of Princess Sophie, could he complete his entire plan without others paying much attention to it.
Plan layout.
Therefore, whether in terms of his escape plan or in terms of personal feelings, he just made a very dangerous move.
But even so, he didn't regret it.
It's just a matter of finding a way to remedy it.
"Your Highness, don't be too panicked. Your Highness the Princess is not angry with you." Chanel comforted him in a low voice, "And before leaving, she still told you to take care of yourself. It can be seen that even after what happened just now, she was still very worried.
I care about you."
"Having said that, when should she forgive me? One day later, one month later, or even longer? This is very important to me." Aigron took another sip of wine in distress, "Chanel, you
After staying with her for several years, tell me, is there any way to make her happy as soon as possible?"
"This... I think it's quite difficult..." Chanel shook her head helplessly, "Her Highness has a very tough temper and a very independent mind. It's easy for others to say no to her."
"Then do you mean to leave it to fate?" Aigron frowned.
He had long seen that Chanel's mind was not very bright, but now that there was no one available, he had no choice but to treat her as a dog-headed strategist.
"Actually, I think His Highness cherishes you so much. He is just confused because of the sudden incident today. He will soon forgive you after a while." Chanel whispered, "But you'd better be more considerate to her recently, so that
It will be much better.”
In the end, I only had this idea...Aigron shrugged.
Forget it, there is nothing better to hope for anyway.
"By the way..." Just when Aiglon wanted to have another drink, Chanel seemed to have thought of something.
"What?" Aiglon regained his hope.
"After coming here, Her Royal Highness misses her hometown very much. If you can relieve her homesickness, she will definitely be very happy!" Chanel replied.
This statement makes sense, and it seems that Chanel is not incapable of coming up with ideas.
"Then you go and get me some Bavarian clothes." Aigron immediately made a decision, "By the way, if you have time, teach me the Bavarian accent - for her, there is nothing wrong with being a spiritual Bavarian.
"
"Okay, Your Highness." Chanel couldn't help but laugh.
After making the decision, Aigron finally felt much better, but what followed was a splitting headache.
But this time it was much better. The headache did not come from the pain of the soul, but from the alcohol - after all, he didn't have much experience in drinking strong liquor.
He could clearly feel that with the hug and kiss from Her Royal Highness the Princess just now, the despair and pain that had been entangled in him had disappeared, and the trauma in his soul had healed.
Maybe people live just for this little thing. They just want to know that they are not living in the world because of a sad joke or accident. Someone needs them.
So, please rest in peace, my soul troubled by pain, I will do everything well.
He said silently to himself, then closed his eyes.
=====================================
"Your Highness, Your Highness...?"
Amid the calls, Aigron slowly opened his eyes.
It was already broad daylight, and when his blurred vision began to focus, he found Chanel looking at him with concern.
He shook his head slightly. His head still hurt slightly because of the hangover, but his mental state had improved a lot.
"Good morning, Chanel. What's wrong with waking me up?"
"The Count and Countess of Naipeg are here to visit you." Chanel replied in a low voice, "You should get up quickly, they are waiting outside the door."
As a die-hard Bonapartist, Chanel was also full of resentment towards Queen Louisa, and of course she could guess that Aiglon's painful performance last night must have been caused by the arrival of the Grand Duchess.
So now I feel even more angry, and I am very cold when talking about her.
"Really?" Aigron frowned.
Although I don't want to see them, since they are already here, I can only show the most basic courtesy.
He struggled to get up from the bed, then got dressed, and then washed up hastily with the help of Chanel. After dressing up, he walked out of the bedroom, and then looked at the couple sitting on the sofa by the fireplace.
people.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, ma'am."
He apologized to the other party without any sincerity.
"You've been in poor health recently and you really need more rest." Louisa smiled, "I'm sorry, Franz, I've been neglecting you too much. This is my fault."
"It doesn't matter, I understand. You also have your own family and life, which are enough to keep you busy. It is impossible and unnecessary for you to use your energy elsewhere." Aigron replied seemingly respectfully.
Of course the couple could understand the ridicule in the young man's words, and they looked at each other.
Louisa frowned, she hadn't been treated like this for a long time.
She rubbed her fingers impatiently and then stood up directly.
"Okay, I know you have a lot of dissatisfaction with me, and I don't ask you to act like a good boy. But even so, I have the right to ask you to be more respectful in front of me. In this palace, I am the eldest princess!"
"If you ask so, of course I can accept it, but I also have a request. Can you please stop pretending to be a good mother? I am not worthy of it." Aigron was not intimidated, but retorted. "Your Royal Highness, Princess,
Your loyal Franz is always at your command."
My mother's eyes widened with anger, and she almost got angry on the spot, but in the end, she calmed down and sighed.
"Okay." She turned and left.
As a result, another attempt to bridge the relationship between mother and son ended in dissolution.
After making her run away, Aigron was not happy.
He didn't know why he was so hostile to Louisa, but when he thought about everything she had done to the King of Rome in history, and what she had done to him after he traveled through time, he couldn't help but feel angry.
Perhaps this is the anger caused by the lack of maternal love.
At this time, he noticed that Count Naiperg had not left.
"Sir, do you have anything else to explain to me?" So he asked.
"Your Highness, please allow me to speak frankly - your attitude towards Madam is really a bit harsh." The Earl thought for a moment and then spoke, "No matter what, she is your mother after all... Blood ties should not be ignored like this.
. I hope you can apologize to her, sincerely."
Apologize? Why? It's the other way around, right? Aigron suddenly became angry again.
"So, Mr. Earl, are you teaching me how to do things?" Aigron asked impatiently.
Count Naipeg was a little angry at the young man's attitude, but he still shook his head, "That's not what I meant..."
"That's good. Otherwise, if you want to play the role of father in front of me to teach me a lesson, then you have to consider whether you are worthy of it." Aigron sneered, "You don't think you have it.
Are your qualifications comparable to that person?"
Being snatched away by him, the Earl's expression suddenly froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched in anger.
If he had been insulted in person like this when he was young and in the army, he would probably have asked for a duel directly.
But he still endured it. "In terms of merit, of course I can't compare with him... But if it's a competition on how to make Luisa happy, I think I can win."
The earl's answer surprised Aigron. He didn't expect that the other party would be so good-tempered towards him.
"How she treats me, of course you can see it if you stay with me all the time. So please ask yourself, what would you think if this happened to you?" Aigron slowed down his tone. "So, I will treat her
Respectfully, but if you force me to love her as much as I love my mother, I'm sorry I can't do it."
Count Nepeg glanced at the young man with complicated eyes.
This child is not so much arrogant, but more like the final stubbornness of a heartbroken child.
"Okay, Your Highness, I understand how you feel now." He stood up and saluted Aiglon, "I hope that all this can be made up for, and I will work hard to make up for it. I sincerely hope that you will accept
You will have good luck if you come down."
"What do you mean?" Aigron was a little confused.
"You will know soon." The count waved his hand and said goodbye to him gracefully.
