He turned his head subconsciously, and found that Sophie was gently kneading his shoulder.
"Your Highness..."
"You must be very tired? You have to practice sword every day, and now you write so many words, your shoulders are really unbearable. Let me rub it for you." Princess Sophie looked at the young man with distressed and gratified eyes, "Don't torture yourself like this in the future, just ask Chanel to record it for you. She is just used to order, isn't she?"
In fact, Aigron is not that tired. After all, he has paid attention to exercise since he was a child, and his physique is already quite good. But since Her Royal Highness is so gentle to him, why should he not accept it.
In addition, "Use Chanel to record yourself so as not to hurt your hand" was just a rhetoric he used to trick Princess Sophie, but His Highness completely accepted this rhetoric, probably because of too much concern.
In this way, he won't have to worry about Her Royal Highness calling Chanel back on a whim in the short term.
"Thank you, Your Highness—" Eggron solemnly thanked Princess Sophie, "You must be tired after sitting next to me for so long, right? You should also take a good rest."
"I'm not tired, I'm just sitting next to you and looking at you. How can I be tired? I won't be tired for a long time." Princess Sophie slowly shook her head, "Aigron, if you can always be like this, you can write Story, I will take care of you silently by the side, that would be great...Maybe this is all my pursuit. This little life is worth chasing and protecting.”
Although strictly speaking it was not a love story, Egron was extremely moved when he heard it at the moment. This must be an unreserved appreciation.
It's a pity...it's a pity that this is just a dream after all.
How will it end on the day when the dream is revealed?
"I don't know if I'm going to be recognized, I'm not very confident about it." He smiled reluctantly. "It's just my entertainment after all."
"You will succeed...I promise." The hand pinching his shoulder tightened slightly, "Even if people in the whole world don't believe in you, I will believe in you, because...because from the first time I saw you When you started, I knew that you were destined to be extraordinary."
Of course, Eggron would not take this kind of blind faith out of preference, but even so, he was very moved.
"Thank you for your trust! So even in order to live up to your trust, I will do my best..." He looked at Her Royal Highness and assured her every word, "On this road, maybe It will cost something, maybe even a lot, but I am convinced that in the end I will be able to make you proud of me and convince you that you have done the right thing."
Only he himself knows what this sentence means.
"I'm proud of you right now, Aegron." Her Royal Highness replied with a smile, "You don't need to impose any obligations on yourself, even if it's good now."
No, it's not good now, this is not the "now" I want... Aigron's nose was sour, and he managed to control his emotions.
Her Royal Highness's tenderness moved him extremely, but the more he was moved, the more he insisted on his own ideas. No matter what the plan must be successful, only in this way can he proudly compensate for everything he got.
"Okay, I should go, it's getting late—" Her Royal Highness smiled wryly, and looked out the window.
Aigron looked out the window, the sun had turned golden yellow, pulling the trees out of long shadows.
It turned out that he had been busy all afternoon, and it was almost dusk now.
"Goodbye, Eggron."
Her Royal Highness withdrew her hand and got up to say goodbye.
But Aegron grabbed her hand and seemed not to allow her to leave.
"Stop making trouble, Eggron." Princess Sophie shook her head lightly, "It would be too impolite for me not to attend dinner. Sometimes we need to do something regrettable..."
But the boy still held her hand stubbornly, refusing to let go.
"At least, let's make the farewell a little more ritual, okay?" Then he asked with hope.
Looking at his eyes, Her Royal Highness quickly understood what he meant, she blushed slightly, after a moment of hesitation, she sighed and nodded, then closed her eyes.
"Well... you are really worrying."
Aigron didn't say any more, but hugged Her Royal Highness again, and then touched her lips gently.
Different from the excitement just now, this time he was very calm, he just wanted to remember this day in this kind way.
Her Royal Highness did not resist either, she just closed her eyes and tasted the sweet fruit.
Perhaps, after breaking through the first time, the second, third and even countless times are just a matter of numerical value.
After an unknown amount of time, the two separated again.
Princess Sophie rearranged her dress, then looked at the young man reluctantly.
"See you tomorrow, Eggron."
"See you tomorrow." Aigron waved his hand.
Then, she turned and left, leaving behind the young man who was still thinking about it.
After walking out of the room, Her Royal Highness' original smile and joy slowly disappeared, and she returned to her usual serious and indifferent expression.
Chanel, who had been waiting in the meeting room outside, saw that His Highness was gone, and hurriedly saluted her, and was about to go in, but was stopped by a gesture from Her Highness the Princess.
"Your Highness, do you have any orders?"
"Take good care of Your Highness." Princess Sophie said to Chanel in a cold tone, "Also, I have something to remind you."
"What's the matter?" Chanel asked again.
"Chanel, you are smart and quick, a girl who can take care of others - but don't forget, you are just a dowry I brought here, no different from the jewelry in my jewelry box. I can give you a lot Things can make you lose everything, and it's very simple." Her Royal Highness looked at Chanel coldly, "Now you are still very useful, so I don't care about you, but remember, if you dare to have something wrong If you think about it, it makes me unhappy, then you can weigh the consequences yourself - no one can protect you."
After finishing speaking, she didn't care about Chanel's blushing and pale face, and went straight away.
65, dedication
After listening to the reprimand, the maid stood quietly, and did not dare to straighten up until the skirt of Her Royal Highness disappeared at the end of the corridor.
Her face was pale, obviously Her Royal Highness's reprimand just now touched her a lot.
Although her loyalty has already been transferred to that highness, she is still full of fear in her heart towards the old master's power.
But even if she was afraid, she didn't want to follow Her Royal Highness's orders.
She didn't know what the consequences would be, and she didn't even know whether it would be good or bad to continue to follow the new master, but she had already determined the way to go for herself with fanatical determination, even if Her Royal Highness was furious.
She took a few deep breaths, managed to recover her mood, and tried to calm herself down, then opened the door and walked into the room.
Her gaze fell on her little master as quickly as possible, and he had returned to his usual indifferent expression at this moment. He was sitting upright behind the desk, and there was a stack of manuscripts in front of him.
The passionate time had passed, and there was no trace in the room to tell what had just happened.
"Your Highness." Chanel greeted respectfully, "Do you want me to prepare dinner for you?"
Her words finally woke Aigron up from his trance.
"Wait a while, I'm not very hungry yet." He shook his head, "Chanel, help me sort out my manuscript first."
"Okay." Chanel immediately agreed, and then took the manuscripts, carefully organizing them page by page.
With sharp eyes, she soon realized that this was not Her Royal Highness's note, so she looked at the boy with some distress.
"Why do you have to do it yourself? Just let me record it."
"Don't worry, I'm not that fragile, Chanel." Aigron couldn't help laughing, and then he seemed to remember something, "I have one thing I want you to do for me, but it might be a little dangerous—"
Chanel regained her spirits as soon as she heard it, and looked up at Aigron. "Go ahead and order, I'd be more than happy to do it for you."
"The touching loyalty, I really hope I can fully repay you." Aigron was taken aback for a moment, then smiled wryly, "Okay—then let me tell you, I hope you will go to the pawn shop if you have the opportunity after following us to Vienna. , exchange some cash for me."
Then, he took out a few gemstones from the drawer of his desk, "You know, although I have a title and fiefdom, because I am underage, my income is temporarily kept by my guardian. I don't have any opinions, but it undoubtedly caused me a lot of trouble, I can't just give a gem to everyone like a fool."
"Okay, I will definitely find a way to do it." Chanel took the gem and immediately agreed.
"These things are not rare treasures, but they are also quite valuable, but if you are bargained by the pawn shop owner, you don't have to worry about it, just pawn it at the price they give you." Aigron continued to tell the other party, "Remember, yes For you, the biggest danger is to be regarded as a thief. After all, with your usual clothes, it is impossible to be qualified to own these. Although most people will ignore suspicion for the sake of making money, it is still very risky after all. After all, there are secret police all over the city."
"Then what should I do?" Chanel was a little confused.
"You have a chance to dress like a lady—that's when you're on stage." Eggron explained in a low voice, "You can use the gap before going on stage to run to the nearby pawn shop as fast as you can, pretending to be the nearest Some lady who is in a tight spot, pawned gems to exchange for me. Of course, this requires a little wit and resourcefulness, and I believe you can do it. Moreover, you don't have to rush to finish it all at once, and you can't always Pawning in a pawn shop, it is too late to familiarize yourself with the surrounding situation before doing it."
"I understand..." Chanel suddenly realized, and then she nodded immediately, "Okay, Your Highness, don't worry, I will do it for you!"
"I believe you." Eggron nodded with a smile.
With the advancement of his plan, he finally began to get the opportunity to contact the outside world, but in this case, money became a necessity, but unfortunately, he didn't have cash on hand that he could hide from everyone and withdraw at any time. So he could only consider the idea of secretly pawning and hiding it.
With Princess Sophie's preference for him, if he really asks for money, Her Royal Highness, who has been made happy, will definitely give it a lot. Unfortunately, he can't explain the reason for using the money to the other party, so he can only give up. idea.
At this time, he was thankful again that he had such a loyal and reliable helper as Chanel by his side, otherwise even such a small step would be very troublesome.
================================================== ==
Soon, it was the day when Aigron and the theater agreed to rehearse his script, and Her Royal Highness did not break her promise.At noon on this day, Princess Sophie sent someone to find Aigron, and led them to the outside of the theater in light clothes, and then walked in together to the box.
It was not yet time for the evening performance, so there were very few people in the theater, and Aigron was happy and quiet.
The theater manager who had been waiting for them soon ran over.
"I didn't expect you two to be so punctual this time." He greeted his siblings with a smile, then walked to the railing and pointed to the lower stage, "We're not idle either, please see—"
As if summoned by him, the curtain of the stage slowly opened, and then a group of actors stepped onto the stage.
They dress differently, play different roles, and then start acting.
Because there was no one in the auditorium downstairs at this time, Eggron, who was standing in the box on the third floor, could clearly hear the lines of the actors-he was very familiar with those lines because he wrote them himself.
Princess Sophie walked behind the railing and watched the performances of the actors seriously. Usually, when Aigron came here, he was not in the mood to watch the show, but today was different after all, so he also stood behind the railing, talking with Su Princess Fei stood side by side and admired it with great interest.
Although the drama itself is just a cover, who doesn't have a little vanity.
"Your actors, their skills are not bad—" Princess Sophie said after watching for a while.
"That's natural." The manager smiled proudly, "Although our theaters are not the largest ones, we have the same strict requirements on actors, so that audiences will come to support them."
"But they're too lacking in enthusiasm!" Her Royal Highness changed the subject, "They're just performing roles mechanically, and they can't reflect the soul of my brother's script characters at all."
"Please understand, they have only just come into contact with this script, and they are still understanding the whole plot, and it's normal if they haven't immersed themselves in it." The manager replied with a smile, "When it's on stage, it will definitely not have this effect."
"It will be too late to find out the problem after moving onto the stage!" Princess Sophie interrupted the manager. "In order to prevent this situation, we two siblings discussed it and came up with a way—"
"What way?" The manager asked subconsciously.
"We want her to participate in the performance." Princess Sophie casually pointed to the person standing behind her.
The manager took a closer look, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"You mean the maid?"
"It's her." Princess Sophie nodded unquestionably, "Sir, let me tell you the truth, I am willing to spend money on the entertainment of our siblings, and I can spend a lot of money, but I can't tolerate it the most." It’s someone who’s out to fool us, take our money and think we’re fools, so I thought having one of our guys keep an eye on the show was probably the best solution.”
These young masters and ladies from rich families really like to mess around!You must have been spoiled since childhood... The manager couldn't help but lament in his heart.
"Your maid, although she looks good, she has never received any professional training, right?" He tried to reason with this wayward young lady, "That means she has to learn from scratch, And that will take time - if she slows things down because of her, it's not an easy outcome for either of us."
"You underestimate her by saying that, sir." Aegron, who had been silent all this time, said suddenly, "I told you before, the current scripts are often dictated by me and then copied by her, so she She is someone who can grasp the pulse of my thoughts, she can understand everything I want to pour into the script, besides, I don't want her to be the heroine, as a supporting actress, she can follow the progress of the performance at any time."
"But..." The manager is still a little embarrassed. After all, this kind of "bringing money into the team" happens from time to time in theaters, but it is usually an actress who has a financial background. It was almost unheard of that the maid was going to be in the show.
"You don't believe it?" Aigron frowned, and then he took the manuscripts he had written recently from Chanel and handed them to the other party, "Why don't you judge her ability on the spot?" ? If you admit that she is barely passable, agree to our terms."
Now that we have reached this point, the manager also felt bad and continued to forcefully refuse, "Okay, let's give it a try."
He took the script from Aigron and flipped through it.
Then, he looked at the silent maid with a scrutinizing gaze.
"Miss, you can perform a live performance—"
Aigron also looked at Chanel, "Chanel, don't be nervous, just play to your due ability."
Although he told Chanel not to be nervous, to be honest, he was a little nervous. After all, he didn't know whether Chanel could pass the manager's eyes.
However, he chose to believe in Chanel.
Chanel noticed the young man's gaze, and she couldn't help shrinking her neck.
She knew that His Highness was looking at her and had high expectations for her.
So she didn't allow herself to fail—she had always vowed to do everything for His Highness, so how could she let him down at the very first step?
For her, this is not just a performance exam, but also means the whole future.
She took a few breaths, then looked at the mural pattern on the dome of the theater.
If you fail, if you disappoint His Highness, then jump off from here!
She said to herself in her heart.
Then, she made up her mind and looked at the middle-aged man in front of her with a calm gaze that sees through everything.
"My dear friend, do you know what you did? You stood in front of a woman who longed for warmth, you gave her hope, you made her smile again, in this case, how could you bear to be so cruel? Let her despair? If you do, then you have committed the greatest crime in the world?"
As she spoke, she frowned slightly, and there was a sad and hesitant look in her eyes, as if she was about to cry, "She was unfortunately at the mercy of fate, her soul was withered, she was so disappointed that she didn't even dare to count on anything, and at that time you coming…………"
Under the watchful eyes of three people, Chanel uttered the lines written by Aigron in a gesture of ecstasy.
Finally, she covered her heart, and ended the lines with a dejected and implied anticipation.
After the performance, she raised her head and carefully looked at the three people in front of her, waiting for their sentence.
"Crack, snap, snap"
