However, just as the young man walked to the window and looked at the scenery outside the room, and was about to read out the ideas in his mind, there was a soft knock on the door of the room.

Chanel stopped writing.

She was not surprised, as if with a premonition.

"That arrives so fast……"

Aigron also stopped, and he seemed to have guessed who was coming.

"Go and open the door." He waved his hand.

Chanel obeyed the order, walked to the door, and opened it gently.

The moment the door was opened, Chanel was suddenly pushed away, and then a figure in a skirt walked in quickly, and came in front of the young man.

She looked at the young man quietly, as if she wanted to analyze from his face what was different about him from before.

"Your Highness, long time no see." Eggron greeted her with a smile, "I was planning to visit you later."

"You're finally back..." Princess Sophie let out a long sigh of relief. "I thought you were going to leave and never come back!"

"You don't have to worry about this. If I really leave here one day, I will say goodbye to you first." Aigron replied with a smile.

"Don't say such terrible things with a smile on your face!" Sophie scolded Eggron, and then suddenly hugged him, "I haven't seen you in so long... God! You are such a bastard, It's been so long without hearing from him!"

"I can't write to you there..." Aigron smiled wryly.

"Then you...then you seem to please that family?" Sophie asked nervously.

"Their family is indeed very polite to me, so polite that it even makes me embarrassed." Aigron replied. "However, I followed the promise between us and promised them nothing."

"At last you still remember!"

After getting the answer she wanted, Sophie was immediately elated, with a smile on her face.

Suddenly she remembered that there was another person here, so she whispered an order to Chanel.

"go out!"

Chanel felt very uncomfortable, but she had no choice but to obey and walked out.

When there were only two people left in the room, Sophie's expression became more relaxed.

"Finally no one can bother us."

After her mood finally improved, she naturally sat back beside the desk, and then picked up the pen casually. "It looks like you've been planning to start writing since you got back? What a satisfying passion. So, now is the time to let me help you."

"Thank you."

Aigron first thanked him, then walked back to the window, and then began to speak eloquently, reading out the lines he had just conceived for a long time.

But Sophie didn't say a word, and quickly recorded it on paper, as if she regarded it as a rare entertainment for herself.

After an unknown amount of time, Aigron finally stopped his chanting, and at the same time, Sophie finally stopped her pen.

"It's really tiring." Sophie pinched her numb right hand.

"Your Highness, you don't have to make yourself so tired, just let Chanel come." Aigron felt distressed.

"It's okay, I feel very happy from the bottom of my heart when I think that I have saved you so much hard work with my own hard work." Sophie laughed.

Then, she changed the subject again, "During the time you were away, the theater screened your script a few more times, and the reverse was quite good, so the theater was very satisfied—they recognized your talent."

"Really? That's great."

Although Aigron doesn't really aim to become a playwright in life, he is still very happy when his talent is recognized.

"They don't just thank you verbally. What the theater now means is that they are willing to cooperate with Mr. Franz Memmingen for a long time and stage his works." Sophie continued, "In addition, they will give you back A promissory note was sent for your share of the time. Are you proud of yourself, Aigron?"

"Yes, I'm a little proud." Aigron nodded, "This proves that even if I lose everything I have now, maybe I can still live on my own ability."

"What loses everything? Can't you say something nice?" Sophie couldn't help robbing him, "Aigron, you will have everything, whether it's honor, money, fame, or the admiration of everyone... because this is You deserve it of course!"

"Thank you for your kind words." Eggron thanked her with a smile. "I will never forget how much help I have received from you... I hope that the little money I earn is enough to make up for the money you lost because of me."

"It's still too early to make up for the loss, I'm afraid you have to put in more effort—" Sophie smiled and shook her head, "But you don't need to care about this, the money I spent is neither a liability nor an investment , if you have to have a name, it is a gift, as long as you and I are happy..."

After hearing these words, the young man's heart was suddenly filled with emotion.

Perhaps in his personal impression, he was full of beautification of Sophie, but all along, her care and love for him was not exaggerated at all.

Maybe she is not Cinderella, nor Beatrice, not any idealized person, she has her own shortcomings, but even so, for him, she is a unique existence.

"Your Highness, meeting you is the luckiest thing in my life. Without you, I really don't know how to get through this oppressive and lonely time." Touched, he said, "I I will remember this luck until I am buried."

"Don't be stupid." Sophie smiled and shook her head, "You are not allowed to say such unlucky things at such a young age. I don't want you to die, just stay by my side."

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

After returning to the court, Aigron's life returned to its former peace, but compared to the past, his schedule was much more fulfilling.

Not only did he have to deal with his own educational courses, but he also had to forward letters through Captain Foresty, keep in touch with the theater, and occasionally sneaked to the theater with Sophie to watch the performance of his own play.

Every time he visits the scene in person and sees the audience cheering collectively at the curtain call after the script is finished, he feels a sense of accomplishment spontaneously.

The only regret is that no one has come to him so far.

There is still no news from those people he was looking forward to, as if they have disappeared.

But he was not in a hurry, because it was useless to be anxious, he just hoped and waited.

Unknowingly, time is passing by quietly, the wind and sunshine in late autumn have ended, and the bitter winter has come quietly.

Because it is located on the banks of the Danube, Vienna is very windy in winter. Even during the day, the raging cold wind will sweep ruthlessly through the streets and alleys with whistling sound.

However, the cold wind could not stop the enthusiasm of the citizens who took to the streets.

because--

Carnival is here.

Every winter, the capital of the empire would be immersed in a sea of ​​joy. People who had worked hard for a year were unwilling to let go of this opportunity to take a rest, and vented their bodies and minds in various ways.

They will sing and dance, celebrating their hard-won peace.

The citizens will not know that there will be two more unexpected guests in Vienna this year's carnival.

In the Schönbrunn Palace in winter, the night will be very early, and the sky has already darkened just after five o'clock in the afternoon.

In the distance Vienna was already brightly lit, but the court was still silent, proudly secluded from the world.

At this time, Sophie quietly came to Aigron's room again.

"Aigron, did you call me here suddenly?" she asked.

"Your Highness, tonight is the day we go to the carnival together?" the young man asked.

"Yeah, what's the matter?" Sophie nodded, "I'm going to call someone to inform you later..."

"I think I should make some preparations in advance." Aigron replied with a smile, "Since it's a carnival, should we have some costumes?"

"When we usually go out, don't we just cross-dress?" Sophie felt a little strange.

"No, that's different, I'm going to have something interesting—" Aigron continued to smile, "I hope I can give you a little surprise."

"Really?" Princess Sophie was even more surprised. She nodded with a smile, "Then you really made me look forward to it—well, what is the surprise?"

"Wait a moment." Aigron made a gesture, signaling His Highness to wait first.

Then he went back to his bedroom.

Sophie waited quietly, but soon, the door opened again, and then, a young man with a brand new look came out again.

Sophie's eyes widened slowly, and then from surprise to surprise.

The boy was wearing a dark brown vest and coat, loose leather pants on his legs, and stockings and round-toed suede shoes on his feet.On top of his head, he also wore a round hat with feathers.

After wearing this suit, the young man looked handsome and free and easy, and more importantly - he looked like he came from Bavaria.

Aegron walked up to Sophie, and then respectfully took off his hat to salute her.

"Your Highness, what do you think?"

Sophie didn't answer immediately, but hugged him short of breath.

Seeing the service in her hometown made her more and more drawn to her heartstrings.

"God...it's so similar." She kissed the young man's forehead and almost cried, "Aigron, my heart...if you are so caring all the time, I won't be bothered anymore .”  

84, carnival

"If you are so considerate all the time, I will never worry about it again."

Sophie's words seemed to contain mixed flavors. There were comfort and joy, but also a little trouble and sorrow. After all, she still knew in her heart that God did not leave much future for them.

However, at least you can enjoy the moment, that's enough.

She quickly took back all her emotions, and then let go of the young man in her arms.

"Wait a minute, I'll go back and change my clothes too."

After speaking, she left quickly, leaving Aigron behind.

It seems that she really likes it... Eggron thought to himself with a little complacency.

"Chanel!" He called out loudly.

"Your Highness?" Chanel, who heard the greeting, walked over from the next room, waiting for his order.

After seeing Aigron's outfit, she was obviously taken aback. "you……"

Of course she remembered that she had found these clothes for the young man.

And the purpose of wearing these clothes, needless to say, is also to please Her Majesty Sophie.

"Chanel, today is the day we go to the carnival... I will take you there as I promised before, so you can see the fun of the Austrians." Aigron said to her with a smile, "But , when the time comes, His Highness and I will go out for a stroll, and it will be fine for you to stay in the theater."

"Of order, Your Highness." Chanel lowered her head expressionlessly, "I wish you a good time."

"Thanks, I think I will." Eggron nodded with a smile.

Just after the two of them were ready to stop, Sophie ran over again.

As soon as she came in, she ignored Chanel and directly grabbed the young man's hand.

"Aigron, let's go!"

Aigron looked at Sophie and found that she had also taken on a whole new look.

She was wearing a thick, puffy winter dress with white and pink lace at the neckline.The sleeves are bulging puff sleeves, and there are many exquisite laces on the skirt of the lower body, and she wears a bowknot hair accessory on her head-the whole dress looks like she has returned to her girlhood.

Maybe this is what she longed for deep in her heart.

"Your Highness, you are so pretty." He couldn't help but compliment.

"Shouldn't you call me that at this time?" Sophie asked pretending to be annoyed.

"Sophia, I... I'm so happy to enjoy this festival with you." Aigron quickly responded.

"Frantz, as long as you like, I will always be by your side." Sophie finally smiled again, and then she stretched out her hand from behind, "I even prepared this for us!"

Aigron took a closer look and found that she was holding two exquisite masks in her hand.

"Here you are!" Sophie handed him one.

Aegron took it and put it on for himself.

This mask is for masquerade balls, and it can cover the upper half of his face. Aigron looked at his current image in the mirror, and suddenly found it quite interesting.

It was something he had never experienced before.

"Okay, stop looking in the mirror!" After a while, Sophie urged him, "Aggron, we should go."

Then, he looked at Chanel who had been silent beside him.

"Your Highness... do you have any orders?" Chanel asked hurriedly with her head lowered.

"Chanel, Eggron asked you to join the carnival activities, and I agreed." Sophie asked casually, "So do you have a dance partner tonight? If you have a favorite candidate among the court attendants, I can make an exception and invite you He went there together, so you should have more fun."

"Your Highness, how could I have such a candidate?" Chanel clenched her fists lightly out of her sight, "Just completing the tasks you gave me has made my life full enough, I don't What dance partner do I need to bring over?"

"Well... since that's fine, you can find a dance partner there, anyway, isn't that what people go to the masquerade to enjoy...?" Sophie didn't bother to pay more attention to her, and it was fine if she didn't appreciate her. "When you get there, you are free. As long as you don't disturb our interest, you can do whatever you want, enjoy it."

The more Sophie said that, the more uncomfortable Chanel felt, but she didn't dare to show it in front of the two Highnesses, so she just lowered her head and remained silent.

After explaining, Sophie and his party came into the night, and then came to the carriage.

"It's a pity that it's not a pumpkin carriage." After seeing that the carriage was still as unremarkable as before, he was disappointed and couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
