Her eyes were a little disappointed, but she was not disappointed. She knew that this seemed to be the most she could get from her eldest son.

Perhaps, it might not be a bad thing for her to resolve her complex entanglements with the Bonaparte family in this way.

As the mother and child interacted like ordinary friends, the atmosphere between the two people also eased down.

Undoubtedly, there is no reconciliation between them, but at least they have let go.

"It's great that we can open our hearts to each other today." After a moment of silence, Luisa spoke again, "Before we say goodbye, would you like to listen to a piece of advice?"

"Please tell me." Eggron nodded.

Luisa looked around subconsciously, and after making sure that no one was overhearing, she moved closer to her face, then lowered her voice, "You should pay attention in the future, there are rumors about you and Sophie everywhere, I have only been here for a few days I heard that this is very bad for you."

Aegron's expression froze. "What do you mean?"

"You now have the hope of becoming the son-in-law of Grand Duke Karl, there is no need to give up all your previous achievements for some unnecessary reasons." Luisa looked at him calmly, "Farewell to the past feelings gracefully, this is what young men and women learn in the upper class Your first lesson. The current matter is very important to you, if you want to have an affair, there will be opportunities in the future..."

"Okay, I ask you to stop, ma'am." Aigron bowed to the other party and ended the conversation politely.

Seeing that he didn't listen to the advice, Luisa could only shake her head helplessly. "Your self-esteem is too strong, and you refuse to listen to others' advice, then I can't help it."

"It has nothing to do with self-esteem. I am a person who pays attention to realism. If necessary, self-esteem can be temporarily abandoned." Aigron looked at his mother and replied unhurriedly, "There is only one reason why I don't want to hear it. In my mind, she is more important than you, ma'am. From the point of view of ordinary friends, your advice has crossed the line."

Luisa's face suddenly turned pale, and her body trembled.The words really stabbed her.

"Okay, you can think about your own affairs, I have nothing to say." Then, she turned and left.

Aigron finally ended the impatient conversation. He couldn't hold back his desire anymore, and walked straight to Princess Sophie's bedroom on the other side.

The reason why he rejected his mother's opinion so forcefully was not only based on emotional reasons. At present, Princess Sophie is the biggest reliance on his plan to realize it. If you take the initiative to stay away from Sophie, and then the matter with Teresa fails to be negotiated, then you will face the worst situation, and it will be very difficult to think of a way again.

No, I will talk about these considerations later, now he just wants to see her...

Soon, he got the permission of Her Royal Highness again and had an audience with her.

Just like in the morning, Her Royal Highness was resting on the sofa, but this time she was holding the script he had just written in her hand.

After seeing the boy, she put down the script in her hand, and then looked at him carefully.

"Aigron, your expression is ugly." Then, she said, "Did His Majesty the Emperor reprimand you just now?"

"No." Aigron shook his head, "He just asked me something."

"Then what's the matter with you?" Seeing his expression, Princess Sophie was a little anxious, "Is it your mother?"

"There was no quarrel, we just exchanged opinions with each other. From a positive point of view, our relationship is now straightened out." Aigron shook his head, "Okay... don't mention this, I just want to see you Just a moment, and thank you for taking care of me all the time."

"You said it as if you were about to say goodbye." Princess Sophie couldn't help laughing out of surprise, "It's okay, you're welcome."

Then, she pointed to the place next to the sofa, "Okay, sit down and rest for a while, I think your condition is really bad."

Aigron did not follow her suggestion, but continued to stand in front of Her Royal Highness, looking at her all the time.

"What happened to you?" Her Royal Highness was even more surprised.

"Your Highness... I want to give you a hug, is that okay?" the young man said suddenly.

Her Royal Highness opened her eyes wide.

She looked at the boy suspiciously to confirm his mental state at the moment.

Under the gaze of the young man, she hesitated at first, but finally sighed helplessly.

"Ok."

Then, she stood up leisurely. "I'm really curious what your mother did to you, why you suddenly look like a lost child..."

"I lost my soul...but I found it too..." Eggron muttered under his breath.

"What?" Princess Sophie didn't hear clearly, so she asked, but her question was quickly interrupted.

"ah……"

She suddenly felt someone hug her waist tightly.

Although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, because the boy hugged him so hard, she suddenly felt a little hard to breathe.

"Easy..." she complained softly.

However, the young man didn't seem to hear it, he still hugged her tightly, buried his head on her shoulder, and slightly closed his eyes.

This moment made him feel sincere joy.

"It's okay." Princess Sophie sighed helplessly, and at the same time reached out and patted his back. "Don't be afraid, no matter what happens, at least I still support you."

"Yes, I believe so..." Aegron murmured.

Then, the two hugged like this, speechless for a long time.

"Does this feel better?" After a long time, Her Royal Highness asked.

"It feels so good." The young man looked at her with a smile on his face.

"Then let me go." Princess Sophie frowned, "I can't breathe anymore!"

She said that it was false that she couldn't breathe, but it was true that her face was hot and her breathing was a little short at the moment.

Looking at the face of the young man in her arms, she suddenly felt her heart beating faster.

Really grown up, how handsome.

Then, she barely raised her hand and carefully pushed him away.

"This is just to comfort you because you are so devastated..." She tried her best to calm herself down and make her look more natural. "Aigron, get well."

"I know." Aigron looked at Princess Sophie solemnly, "I...I will always remember this moment."  

35. Stern words

"I... I will always remember this moment."

Although it was not the first time she heard Aigron say such words, Princess Sophie still laughed happily.

"I hope you didn't just talk about it."

After she finished speaking, she smoothed out the crumpled skirt that had just been hugged.

The traces on the skirt will soon return to their original state, but the intimate hug between the two just now will always be a memory of each other.

"Are you all right?" After a while, Princess Sophie had regained her usual composure, and asked Eggron.

"Yes, it's all right." Aigron nodded, "Your Highness, your warm embrace healed me, spiritually."

"I'd rather you lose your mind than see you being so glib!" The princess glared at him, but she didn't seem to be angry at all.

"Okay, since you have always said that you are grateful to me, then I want you to prove it."

"Then how should I prove it?" Aigron asked.

"It's very simple." Her Royal Highness's smile was a little more playful, "When we were adjusting the lines just now, I thought of something."

"What's the matter?" Eggron was even more puzzled.

"I hope you will use the name Franz Memmingen when you sign your scripts in the future. After all, this is what I thought of for you." Her Royal Highness said with a smile, "In addition, if there is a story I like, I will Hope we can co-author and put both of our names. Hope this request doesn't infringe on your pride as an author... I'm your patron and protector in a worldly sense so it doesn't count Is it too much?"

"This is not even a request for me, but an honor." Aigron agreed without thinking, "Anyway, writing scripts is just a pastime for me, and I don't mind being famous in history so much." , using a pseudonym can avoid a lot of trouble. If you like it, it doesn't matter if you dedicate it all to you."

"Very good." Princess Sophie blinked happily, "Aigron, I look forward to your works being known, and I believe you will be able to do so. In other places, our names cannot be linked together. Together, at least in a fantasy world, we can face the world together under a fantasy name..."

Her Royal Highness's voice subconsciously softened, and she was obviously full of joy and anticipation in her heart; but these words also touched Aigron's heartstrings unknowingly.

At first he came up with this idea, it was really only used as a part of the escape plan, and he didn't have any expectations for the story itself, but Sophie's deep friendship for him made him can't help but hope to use Memmingen The name left a memory of two people.

If you are destined to be sorry for her, why not take this opportunity to let her leave some good memories?Agron thought.

After Aigron readily agreed to the request, His Royal Highness Sophie's mood improved. "Also, I want to ask you a question, Aigron."

"what is the problem?"

"When we were hunting before, you told me that what you said in front of His Majesty, that you hoped to be a Napoleon in the pen without contending with the world, was not sincere, it was just a deceptive scene..." Princess His Highness looked at Aigron, and then asked in a low voice, "Then let me ask you now, if I keep fulfilling your wish in this way, so that you can display your talent without any hindrance and find fun on stage... Would you like it?" Extinguish the flame of anger and vengeance in my heart for me, stop thinking about things that are destined to make you dangerous, forget about the empire that no longer exists, and just follow me happily to enjoy your own world?"

Eggron was silent for a while.

"Still unwilling, right?" Princess Sophie sighed. "Even if I have done so much, is it still not enough?"

"It's not a question of how much you have done. You have poured enough affection into me. I can only feel grateful." Aigron shook his head lightly, "However, if Napoleon's son is just a powerless prisoner, A poor guy who escapes reality by hiding in a fantasy world, a clown who has lost the courage to face difficulties, then many people will be disappointed...even you may not think highly of such a person."

"Who said that! It's just that you don't want to!" Her Royal Highness increased the volume, and the sharp scolding made Aigron's eardrum hurt, "I know that although your father has passed away, your grandmother, you Your uncles and your supporters are still alive, but what can they do? The French Empire is no more, and will never reappear! This is a matter for the European powers to decide in Vienna, and you What can be changed?

Aigron, wake up, you are not living for them, you have no obligation to meet their expectations, so what if they are disappointed?You can live happily here...Although you have suffered here, but now I have me, if I am here, you can definitely live happily here. Didn’t I make you happy in the past two years? Are you happy?As long as the old man returns to God, I can give you more in the future..."

What Her Royal Highness said was not completely unreasonable, and her expression was a little sad and full of unwillingness, which made Aigron feel very uncomfortable in his heart—especially, he knew in his heart what he was planning behind his back .

However, what is not acceptable is not acceptable, he has already decided, so it cannot be changed.

Her Royal Highness is right, it's not that others are unwilling to let him go, but that he himself is the last one to let him go.

"Your Highness, I am very moved by your words, and I will consider them." He nodded with great certainty.

Following his answer, the temperature in the room dropped suddenly.

"...This kind of answer, I can only understand it as a rejection." The only response to him was the sharp gaze of Her Highness the Princess. "Aigron, do you think that my obedience to you means that I am an angel? You are wrong. I am obedient to you just because I love you, but don't forget who I am in front of other people."

She stood up from the sofa and looked at Aigron domineeringly, "Since I was a child, I have never been unable to get what I want, and there is nothing impossible to accomplish. That's right, you are Napoleon - Bonaparte, is that man's successor. But now you are also Franz Memmingen, my brother, my friend, mine! I don't care if you want an empire or what, anyway I won't Let my Eggron be dazzled by my own youthfulness, I want you by my side!"

Although His Highness looked aggressive now, Aigron didn't have any fear in his heart. He knew that the other party was not so much angry as reluctance.

"Do you think I'll be fooled with a smile if you perfunctory me a few words? We've been together for so long, you know me, and I naturally understand you too. Habsburg is old and decadent, and now the emperors and princes here are smiling It's just a puppet, only the two of us are the most warm people here... We are close to each other, feel each other's existence, you beg me to hug you, I do it without saying anything, and I let you stay by my side, You use this kind of answer to laugh at me?" Her Royal Highness continued to say angrily, "It's okay if you refuse to listen to me. Do you think I will give up? No, don't think! I will tolerate you, as I have always done. I will influence you little by little, no matter how firm your fantasies are, I will let you stay here for me... Yes, even if your heart is as hard as a stone, I can melt it drop. I can do it!"

"Your Highness, stop talking." Aegron felt a little sad and couldn't help interrupting her.

This is the first time Her Royal Highness has spoken so harshly in front of him.

"Needless to say, this is enough." Princess Sophie replied.

Then, she took a few deep breaths to calm herself down from the excitement.

Then she looked at the boy in front of her again.

Since she married into this palace more than two years ago, he was the only one who fit her best. Every time the two of them chatted, they could be so happy, and even had a kind of joy from the bottom of their hearts.Under his watchful eyes, he gradually grew up, from a child to a man who could save himself from a horse.

Because of this, when she thought that one day he might not be by her side, she felt a little panicked and annoyed.

If only he could forget about those flames and fantasies...

"Aigron, I'm glad you agreed to my signature request." Her Royal Highness nodded calmly, "Hurry up and get ready, perfect your script, and then I'll take you there to find a way to get that theater staged. I The sooner the better, because you can’t just write one story.”

Her Royal Highness's expression was so calm, it seemed as if everything just now was just an illusion.

But Aigron couldn't forget it no matter what.

"Yes, even if your heart is as hard as a stone, I can melt it away. I can do it!" These words seemed to be still echoing in his ears.

He knew that she was really not just talking.

But the more she was like this, the more helpless and guilty he felt.

It's a pity that things have gone astray from the beginning. Although he and she get along so well, they are destined to be unable to have the best of both worlds.

But it doesn't matter, one day, he will correct this vicious joke made by heaven.

If there are destined to have regrets, I will smash those regrets.

"I will work hard, Your Highness." He nodded.

All parting will only be temporary, his escape will make him come back in an even more invincible posture, and no one will be able to dominate him at that time.

He looked at Princess Sophie, and Her Royal Highness was also looking at him.

The thoughts of the two people are completely different at this moment, but they seem to have the most essential similarity.

"Before we say goodbye, can you give me another hug, Your Highness?"

"I said, I will." Her Royal Highness stubbornly raised her head, and then hugged him again.  

36. Condition and decency

Even Aigron himself couldn't express his feelings when he left Her Highness the Princess.

Being able to hug her twice, of course, was an unparalleled comfortable experience, but His Highness's words before parting made him feel heavy.

How much does Her Royal Highness know about her plot?Is it a vague premonition, or a tacit understanding?At least she was never fooled by her acting skills, thinking that she could not be satisfied with living in seclusion in this palace as a wealthy prisoner.

But no matter how much she knew, anyway, she never reported on herself, but made every effort to satisfy her wish, hoping to influence herself and let herself stay by her side willingly.

He was so moved by this intention that he felt a little guilty.

But no matter how moved and guilty he is, his plan will not change.
