Eagle’s Glory

After saying goodbye to Maria, Aegron still lingered in anger, but he had already learned to control his emotions for a long time, so he did not make any outrageous actions.

Seeing him come back, Chanel, who had been standing beside him, walked back quickly. She wanted to ask what the master had just talked about with Princess Maria, but seeing the young man's livid face, she didn't dare to ask any more questions. .

But it seems that complete silence is not the solution, so she had to boldly ask the young man.

"Your Majesty, are we... are we going to continue shopping now?"

"No, Chanel." Aegron replied softly, "Let's go back, Teresa should have been waiting impatiently for us..."

Just as he was about to leave, after a pause, as if he had remembered something, he stopped again.

"Have you had contact with Princess Maria before?"

"As a maid, how can I have any contact with her..." Chanel replied with grievance and a little sarcasm, "And when I first entered the Bavarian court to serve, I didn't see any members of the royal family, only I could be yelled at by those in charge. Later, because Princess Sophie was married to Austria, other people refused to follow her. When I saw the opportunity, I immediately signed up and hoped to serve His Royal Highness there. The people above saw that I was quick-witted and young, so they agreed to my request, and it was not until then that I had the opportunity to contact your Royal Highnesses..."

Of course Aigron understood that Chanel volunteered to go to a foreign country, not because she was loyal to the Bavarian royal family, nor to please Sophie, but to take the opportunity to come to the Austrian court and then come close to him.

So when he heard this, he couldn't help reaching out and stroked Chanel's cheek to show encouragement. "Well, well done."

Chanel smiled slightly, then continued, "After coming to Her Royal Highness Sophie, I have met Her Royal Highness Maria a few times. To be honest, I don't have a good impression of her - she is sharp and talkative. I can easily make others angry with a smile, but fortunately my identity is not worthy of her attention, so she didn't make me sad..."

Agron's face became strange.

"It seems that Sophie is like that too."

"Yeah, it's just not like that for you." Chanel replied with a smile.

After laughing for a while, she shook her head slightly, "The two His Royal Highnesses are twins after all, their personalities and ways of doing things are indeed very similar... But as far as my contact is concerned, there seems to be a subtle difference, Su Princess Fei is more dignified, looking down on people is looking down on people, and she is straight when she mocks others, while Her Royal Highness Maria is a bit…”

Chanel seemed to have no idea what to say.

"Yin-yang weirdness?" Aegron added in a timely manner.

After talking too much, my heart is full of tears. This is the valuable experience he has gained after the two meetings.

"Yes! That's what it feels like!" Chanel nodded immediately and agreed with this evaluation, "Her Royal Highness Maria can often make others angry with a smile and demean others, and she sometimes even seems to take pleasure in it. ...Hey, it seems that Her Majesty the Queen has been irritated by her several times."

Aigron finally understood, it turned out that she was not targeting herself, she was treating everyone equally.

Taking into account the same-sex repulsion, Chanel's evaluation will inevitably contain some personal subjective colors, but Aigron's experience from the two contacts with her is indeed inseparable.

When he said this, Aegron suddenly regretted a little. If he had consulted with Chanel earlier, he would not have been so passive - it's a pity that he buried everything in his heart at that time.

If he had known Maria's character earlier, he would not have allowed himself to be so passive.

Forget it, since the matter has reached this point, it is meaningless to tangle again. Anyway, everyone will meet at dinner later, and there is no way to hide. Aegron has decided that no matter what happens next, he must not get angry. lest it make things worse.

Suddenly, Aigron suddenly thought of a very important question, "Chanel, how is the relationship between the two sisters?"

Chanel frowned again and began to think, and after a moment he replied softly, "I can't tell... Sometimes the two of them get along very closely and seem to have nothing to say, but sometimes they mock and demean each other, as if they have to argue. Impossible."

Aegron can also imagine why this is the case-the two sisters cherish each other because they were born at the same time, but because of their arrogant and sharp personalities, they instinctively reject the other "exactly the same" self, so they are sometimes intimate and sometimes quarrel. contempt.

So, how much grief does Maria have for what happened to her sister?

He couldn't guess the answer, but instinctively felt something was wrong.

It's a pity that things have come to this point, and the letter to Sophie has also arrived in her hands. What's the point of worrying or worrying about it?

Aegron could only take a deep breath, and then returned to his usual calm.

"Okay, I see, thank you. Let's go back."

Then, he made a gesture, and Chanel, who was still full of doubts, had to remain calm, and then brought Aegron back to the living room.

When they came back, it was already dusk and evening, while Teresa was still engaged in a conversation with Princess Augusta such as "The weather is good today", "The weather in Austria is better", "The weather in Greece is the best" This kind of nutritious conversation - no way, this is the need of socialization, even if the two people are impatient in their hearts, they have to go on.

After seeing her husband come back, Teresa finally breathed a sigh of relief, freed herself from this dull chatter, and looked at her husband with a happy smile.

"Darling, are you feeling better?" she asked cheerfully.

"Well, I'm in a better mood." Aigron nodded calmly, then walked to his wife's side, "Did you have a good time talking?"

"Very happy! Her Royal Highness Augusta is a very cheerful and gentle person. She has formed a happy family. I have received many useful lessons from her." Teresa used the usual words in the social field. answer.

"Well, I also feel very happy, Princess Teresa makes people feel very pleasant to get along with." Princess Augusta also replied with a smile, "I really hope you can have a big family soon, children are God's gift to us The more angels around, the better."

"We'll work hard..." Teresa replied shyly.

Princess Augusta looked at the wall clock next to her, then looked out the window.

"It seems that another guest has come." Then, she turned back. "I saw her carriage."

"Well, is there another guest?" Teresa had the same doubts as Chanel just now. After all, Princess Augusta is in a state of receiving guests today, so no one would come to visit at this time.

"Hey, she's too self-willed, but what can I do? After all, she's my sister, even if it's not the same mother, I have to tolerate it." Princess Augusta smiled bitterly, and then she reminded the teenager in front of her. Couple, "Well, now that she's here, how about we have dinner together later?"

"Of course there's no problem. Since it's your sister, the Princess of Bavaria, of course we should show some respect to her—" Teresa agreed without a second thought.

"She's not a good person to get along with...it's quite nerve-racking at times." Princess Augusta still smiled wryly, and then she seemed to think of something, "But, although you meet her for the first time , but I think maybe you two will feel a little familiar and intimate."

"..." Teresa looked at her puzzled, not understanding what she meant.

Suddenly, there was a very bad feeling in Teresa's heart. She seemed to have thought of something, but she couldn't catch the hint of inspiration all of a sudden.

However, the development of reality didn't require her to think any more. It didn't take long for the door to be opened by the servant, and then, while the skirt fluttered, a woman wearing a soft hat and holding a folding fan walked in slowly.

Teresa's attention was instantly sucked away by her.

"His Royal Highness Sophie..." Teresa exclaimed, "How could you be here?"

"She is not Her Royal Highness Sophie," Princess Augusta replied immediately. "She is Sophie's twin sister, Maria. Teresa, am I right? You must have recognized her at a glance!"

After hearing this explanation, Teresa immediately understood what Princess Augusta's sentence "Even though you met her for the first time, I think maybe the two of you will feel a little familiar and cordial" actually means. what.

It stands to reason that she has also learned the genealogy of various royal families, and has already known that Sophie has a twin sister, but she has always avoided contact with Sophie, and even deliberately forgets things related to her. Pay attention to this.

But when the identical face reappeared in front of him, the once dusty memory began to emerge vividly in front of his eyes again.

Familiarity is very familiar, but kindness is not at all.

From Princess Maria's half-smiling expression, she can always find the familiar sarcasm.

Almost in an instant, Teresa turned her gaze slightly and looked at her husband, while Aigron's surprise and slightly embarrassed apologetic eyes met her.

He wasn't surprised enough! Theresa immediately said in her heart.

Based on what she knew about her husband, once she saw Princess Maria for the first time here, even if she knew that she was only Sophie's twin sister, he couldn't be so calm.

So, what does he know? Had the Bavarians surreptitiously informed him before? Theresa was immediately suspicious.

Also, why did Princess Maria come to visit her so rudely when her sister was still receiving guests? Now it seems that there is an answer too - she did it on purpose.

Teresa doesn't know what's going on, but she knows it won't be as simple as it seems.

Haven't all those grievances and entanglements ended? Why is it endless... She suddenly felt a pain in her head, and the original ease and comfort were instantly swept away.

Mrs. Augusta didn't know what happened in Austria, so her mood was as relaxed as before. After Maria walked to her side, she took the initiative to speak to Teresa.

"I was a little surprised when I heard that Maria wanted to visit me today, but maybe it's fate... Her sister is in Austria, and I heard that she took good care of Aegron, and now she happens to meet her. you."

What is the fate of this? She must have done it herself! Teresa thought.

Thinking of this, her mood was a little worse - although she didn't know what Princess Maria wanted to do, she definitely didn't feel any kindness from the other party's smile.

"Yeah, we have received much care from His Royal Highness Sophie." Although she thought so, on the surface, Teresa maintained her demeanor, "It's a pity that after we leave Austria, it may be difficult to see her again... "

Then, she looked at Maria again, "Your Highness, it's my honor to be able to meet you. I'm sorry, I mistook you for your sister just now."

"His Royal Highness Teresa, I have heard about you for a long time, and I am very happy to meet you today - you are as beautiful and dignified as you said. ." Maria had a smile on her face, and then replied in a tolerant tone, "Even those closest to us often make such mistakes, let alone you?"

Although this sentence sounded very ordinary, Teresa couldn't help but glance at Aegron.

Agron's continued silence made her a little impatient.

"Honey, shouldn't you say hello?" she urged. "She's your aunt's twin sister, you can't be rude."

"It's okay, just treat me as an ordinary friend, but don't be so unfamiliar." Maria replied nonchalantly, and then seemed to think of something, looking at Teresa with a curious smile, "As far as I know, Teresa Your Highness, your father is the younger brother of Duke Reichstedt's grandfather. If you want to force an elder, it seems that you should also be your husband's elder? Are you respectful when you get along every day? That's true Tired."

After being asked by Maria, Teresa was blocked and speechless, and the anger in her heart had nowhere to vent.

She found out that Maria was indeed hostile towards her—and her words seemed to be as venomous as Sophie's.

Sure enough, they are real sisters, really a virtue... Those gray memories of the past came back into her heart, making Teresa's heart full of mixed feelings.

At this time, Aigron found that he could no longer remain silent, so he reluctantly said, "Nice to meet you, Her Royal Highness Maria. I am very grateful to Her Royal Highness Sophie for taking care of me back then, so I have seen you a lot. feel."

"Your Highness, the price of your gratitude is a bit high." Maria replied with a smile, "I thank you for my sister, she will be very happy to know that you and your wife are happily enjoying the hospitality of our country. ?"

At this time, Princess Augusta finally found that the atmosphere was not quite right.

"Okay, it's dinner time, let's eat together—" She forcibly interrupted the unpleasant conversation and made a gesture.
