Eagle’s Glory

Under Aegron's gaze, Sophie stood motionless and seemed to be thinking.

Aegron hesitated for a moment, but decided to walk over to comfort her.

Although he knew that if he went now, Sophie might get angry and vent, but he also knew that this matter could only be handled by himself, and Chanel couldn't help at all.

Sophie had already helped him so much that it was okay for him to suffer a little anger.

"His Royal Highness... It's already so late, let's go back." He walked over to Sophie and whispered.

As if awakened by a shock, Sophie's eyes regained focus and then focused on the young man.

Contrary to Aegron's expectations, Sophie didn't get angry or even showed anger, but just looked at him with mixed emotions, more like she was ashamed.

"What's wrong with you?" Agron was a little surprised at Sophie's reaction.

"It's nothing, Agron." Sophie shook her head gently, "Let's go."

Although Sophie didn't know why Sophie held back her anger, since things ended so easily, Aegron was relieved.

So he didn't say any more, and the two walked out of the theater arm in arm and onto the carriage.

In the Benz carriage, Sophie still looked thoughtful, which made Aegron a little worried - he even wondered if she was being fooled by Teresa.

"His Royal Highness, what did you say to Teresa?" He couldn't help but ask, "Why do you look so gloomy?"

"We said something about you, Agron." Sophie gave him a look and replied.

"...I'm sorry." Agron didn't know what to say, so he had to apologize.

"It's not your fault, it's what the old **** have tossed about. What can I blame you for?" Sophie sighed, "I'm very grateful for your willingness to drag things up for me."

I don't know why, but she seems more sad than angry at the moment, "Teresa said that I was selfish, I don't want to admit it, but isn't that the case? I don't allow you to accept this marriage, obviously I love you a lot. Disadvantage, but you have never complained to me, silently abided by my agreement... You made sacrifices for me, but I took it for granted! I have always been reluctant to face this fact, just doubled to compensate you, But what kind of compensation is this! Today someone finally pointed it out to the face without mercy. I have nowhere to hide, but face the reality, which really makes me miserable and ashamed."

"It doesn't need to be so serious, it's not a sacrifice." Aigron laughed, "It's all over, there's nothing to mention."

Aegron is so calm, of course, because he has already decided to escape, so the marriage with the Archduke Karl's family has long been meaningless to him.

If he was in another situation and had other plans, would he really give the same answer in the face of the test of life? He wasn't sure.

Of course, these words do not need to be said.

"I look down on everyone, and I never feel that I owe them anything, but fate made me meet you, and everything has changed completely..." Sophie blinked, as if she was about to cry, "Iger Long, have you never resented me?"

"It's alright." Agron smiled casually and stroked her cheek, "All you gave me is enough for me, and I haven't expected anything else, I'm not used to begging others. Give me something."

Sophie was so moved that she plunged into his arms desperately and hugged him tightly, "Kiss me!"

Agron complied.

After a long time, the two talents parted their lips.

"Your Highness, are you better?" Agron asked with a smile.

"Much better..." Sophie smiled again, and then replied with a blushing face, "I wish I could just stick to you like this."

After making a joke, she continued, "Aigron, I thought about it carefully, you don't need to keep a promise for me that will only hurt yourself."

"You... what do you mean?" Agron was a little surprised.

"If Your Majesty insists, then you don't need to disobey his will any more. If you offend him, then you will make yourself unlucky for nothing." Sophie replied in a low voice, "I don't want to do it for my own selfishness. As a result, your future will be ruined."

Aegron blinked, completely comprehend why Sophie behaved like this after being scolded once, instead of being furious.

"You...you forgive Teresa?" he whispered.

"No, I will never forgive her for the rest of my life. This shameless **** dares to come and rob my most precious treasure, and dare to speak to me like that..." Sophie's eyes finally flashed with anger, "I just For you, I have no ability to protect you in the face of His Majesty's anger, and I should not harm you."

As she spoke, Sophie suddenly burst into tears, "If the price of my willfulness is to make you unlucky, then I'd rather swallow it."

Although her expression was as calm as possible, Aegron could still feel the pain in her heart at the moment—for someone as arrogant as her, to be able to say such words must be heart-wrenching.

"Don't think too much..." She suddenly smiled reluctantly again, "Idiot, I haven't given up! I will try my best to obstruct this marriage, try my best, and I will still be in Bavaria. Think about it... by the way, my twin sister isn't married yet, maybe anything is possible! I won't admit it until the last moment when there's no hope... I just wanted to tell you that you've sacrificed enough for me , you shouldn't take the pressure next, just let me work hard! Even if the worst result is just because of my incompetence, I won't blame you, Aegron..."

As she said that, she sobbed softly, "Just do what your teachers have persuaded you to do, it's up to me to take responsibility for myself. I've arbitrarily manipulated you for too long and can't Keep going like this."

Looking at Sophie sobbing, Aegron felt mixed feelings all at once.

So weak, yet so strong, what made her like this?

This is love.

Even though his heart was already accustomed to being indifferent and alienated, his heart could not help but melt when he encountered such a hot tenderness.

It's ridiculous that he has always been full of calculations and use of her.

I'm so mean and mean... he thought to himself.

But now that it has come to this point, what else is there to say?

He could only smile wryly, took Sophie into his arms, and gently stroked her hair, comforting her traumatized heart in this way.

All this is a chance to pay back.

"At least there is still a while, we can enjoy a good time." Sophie whispered in his arms with a crying voice, "Aigron, I want to..."

The sense of crisis emanating from the bottom of her heart made her desperate.

In an instant, the hem of her skirt fluttered gently, and her long hair fluttered in the air in a mess, and then fell gently, and everything was invisible in the dense sound of horse hooves.

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

The next morning, Aigron, who had finished his practice, suddenly received an order to be summoned by Prime Minister Metternich.

He hurried over to meet the high-ranking Prime Minister.

As soon as the two met, the old Prime Minister did not speak, but looked at the young man up and down, as if to assess how much the young man had grown during the period when the two did not meet.

After a long time, Prime Minister Metternich nodded, "Not bad, Your Highness, it seems that you really took what I said to heart."

Aegron didn't quite understand what the other party meant, so there was no interface for a while, waiting for his next words.

"But I didn't expect that you suddenly became interested in music?"

Aegron was a little confused at first, but a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he suddenly thought of something—

"Did the Archduke Karl proposed to you?" he asked next.

He recalled that, while he was visiting Archduke Karl's estate, Teresa once played a piano piece for the family at dinner—Beethoven's "Moonlight". Teresa, then, was somewhat indignant at the treatment of Beethoven and lamented when she heard that he was about to pass away.

Then, she proposed to her father to visit the musician who was about to leave the world with Aigron, but after hesitating for a while, Archduke Karl couldn't resist his daughter's wish, and finally agreed.

So Prime Minister Metternich suddenly asked this mindless question, and it is understandable why - Archduke Karl officially greeted Metternich and asked to allow Aegron to visit the well-known musician.

After figuring out the cause and effect, Aigron relaxed. He didn't care whether the other party agreed or not, and he wouldn't lose anything anyway.

"Yes, Archduke Karl is really sympathetic to children." Metternich smiled slightly sarcastically, "Such a willful request was agreed casually."

"Then what's your opinion?" Agron looked at him inquiringly.

"I admit that guy is a talented musician, but he is too rebellious and his temper is very unbearable—" Metternich shrugged, "But even so, he is not a criminal, since you want to see , then go see it, but…”

Metternich raised a finger, "I have a request - I hope you don't make any remarks that undermine the prestige of this government, and you are not allowed to repeat any outrageous remarks about that guy, you just watch him die. The way it was before, that's all."

"I have no interest in evaluating the government, Your Excellency," Aigron immediately assured. "I have never cared about a musician's political stance."

"I know, I have confidence in your indifference, my dear lord, you were brought up by me, and I don't believe you would believe the bluffing nonsense of liberalism and romanticism." Metternich Continuing to laugh sarcastically, "I mean, you want Teresa not to make such deviant remarks - if people in her capacity say things that criticize the government, criticize me, and then be taken out to the public. If you publish it, it will embarrass everyone, and Archduke Karl himself will definitely not be able to please."

Aigron believed Metternich's words this time.

At this time, Beethoven, although he lived in Vienna and was very famous, he was very stalemate with the Metternich government. Even in the later years of his life, despite being poor and ill, he continued to criticize the Metternich government's harsh remarks and Publishing restrictions, so the corresponding Metternich government also hated this disobedient artist very much, almost isolating him from the public.

As a member of the royal family, Archduke Karl is naturally inclined to Metternich's side in terms of political stance, so it is normal to hear his daughter's request to be a little embarrassed. It is conceivable that the Archduke will often be against his daughter's deviant remarks. very headache...

"I will try to restrain His Highness's speech." Thinking of this, Aegron nodded. "But what I can do is probably pretty limited."

"No, Your Highness, I never believe in vague promises from others, because I have made such promises countless times and I have not kept them once." Metternich sneered, "I will say it bluntly, during this period you have to Be responsible for her actions, it's your responsibility when something goes wrong, and I don't want to see you stand by."

"She is the daughter of Archduke Karl, how can I control her?" Agron asked rhetorically.

"She is indeed the daughter of Archduke Karl, but she is also your future wife, and of course you are responsible for it." Prime Minister Metternich frowned impatiently, "Anyway, I hope you make sure she doesn't do anything. What embarrassing everyone, complete this visit safely and safely, and let Her Highness Teresa's willfulness end in a decent way."

If you can't beat the Archduke Karl, are you using me as a safety switch... Aegron couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Obviously, if Teresa really did something outrageous, the most humiliating person would be Prime Minister Metternich herself. He has always been hated by the citizens of Vienna because of his high-handed control. The members of the royal family openly sing the opposite, and he is the one who loses face the most—but due to the prestige of Archduke Karl, it is difficult for him to stop Teresa's waywardness.

So he can only rely on Aegron to solve this problem.

It doesn't matter, Aigron is willing to cooperate with Metternich this time - he doesn't want to make extra troubles today when his plan has seen the light of day.

"Since you have said this, then I can only fulfill your wish." Aegron nodded, indicating that he agreed to this request, "I will find a way to restrain His Highness Teresa's words, but - Does Archduke Karl agree?"

"Of course you have... As I see it, Duke Karl has already agreed, but he hasn't said it publicly. Otherwise, why would he bother so much for you?" Metternich looked at the young man, gloomy. He smiled, "His Royal Highness, I am very glad that since we last met, you have indeed cooperated with my wishes, and I am very satisfied with your progress. So - please continue to obey our will, you will find that all this It's all worth it."
