Eagle’s Glory

Princess Sophie watched the Prime Minister disappear at the other end of the corridor with sharp eyes, and then she walked back into the room again. Of course, it was impossible for Aigron to know about the quarrel between Sophie and Metternich just now, but from her performance just now, he had already guessed a little.

"Your Highness, did you argue with him just now?" he asked.

"It's not really a quarrel, it's just a discussion with him about what to do while you're recovering from your injury." Princess Sophie replied easily, and then sat back on the head of the bed.

"Actually...it doesn't have to be like this. He also has his own position, and his attitude towards me is not particularly bad." Aigron smiled bitterly. "He is a politician, and he neither loves nor hates people."

"What I am not satisfied with is not his character, but his attitude and his habit of not taking us seriously!" Princess Sophie narrowed her eyes slightly, looking rather dissatisfied, "His Majesty the Emperor He just trusts him too much, so he's used to his attitude... No matter how intimidating he is in front of others, he is always a servant, how dare he treat us with such an attitude?"

When she said this, she couldn't help but bring a bit of meanness in her tone, "Hmph, my surname was Wittelsbach before, and now my surname is Habsburg, no matter which one is a hundred times more prominent than his shabby surname, Who knew who the Metternich family was a few decades ago? Now they dare to be arrogant in front of us... I didn't scold him in front of other people. It's already a shame for him."

"But Bonaparte and de Beauharnet weren't big names a few decades ago..." Aigron whispered.

"I don't see that you're really a kid who likes to talk back." Princess Sophie rubbed his face gently, and then added, "Of course you are different—don't ask what the difference is, I'll say it is different. It's just different."

"Okay, then it's different." Aegron could only smile bitterly.

He could feel that after this accident, the already harmonious relationship between him and Princess Sophie became a little closer.

Although it is impossible to count on her to help him escape, at least he has one more protector in this court, and he is one of the most important members of the court, which means that he can live a lot of comfort here.

And it was a very pleasant experience to be with her.

So, there is only one thing that needs to be solved now - how can you keep Chanel by your side without a trace?

"I want to thank you for one more thing." With this purpose, he said cautiously, "Your maid took care of me last night and made me feel very comfortable."

"Really?" Princess Sophie looked back at Chanel, then nodded, "Well done, Chanel."

Chanel just bowed and saluted.

"In that case, let her stay and continue to take care of you during this period of time. You are surrounded by a group of old guys who are disgusting, so how can you recover quickly." Princess Sophie casually suggested, "Besides, with her by your side, it will be much more convenient when you have something you want to convey to me..."

"Huh?" Aegron was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the request he wanted to make had been fulfilled before he actually made it.

For a moment, his heart was filled with joy and emotion, "Thank you for thinking of me so much..."

"So you have to listen to my words." Sophie replied with a smile, "I only hope that what I have done can convince you that not everyone here is against you..."

Then, after the two chatted for a while, they finally left reluctantly, and as Aegron had hoped, the maid Chanel stayed.

"Your Highness, that's great..." After the door was closed again, Chanel let out a sigh of relief.

"It's too early to be happy." Aigron returned to his usual calm.

He tried to move his legs and move his body.

Then, he struggled to sit up, and the pain from his body made him moan softly, but he sat up smoothly.

"His Royal Highness!" Chanel was shocked and rushed to his side in a hurry.

"It doesn't matter." Aegron raised his finger to stop him, "I seem to be recovering faster than I thought."

"Is it really all right?" Chanel was still a little worried, and kept looking at him, "Why don't you just lie down and rest..."

Aegron glanced at her and made her stop talking.

"I appreciate your worrying about my body, Chanel." After a moment of silence, he said, "But since you believe that you need to be loyal to me, then you should understand that the one who gave the order is me, And you're just in charge of the execution... So, if I didn't ask you for advice, then you shouldn't question it and just do what I say, understand?"

"His Royal Highness..." Chanel's expression was full of grievances, "I'm just... just worried about you..."

"I know, but so what? I just need you to act according to my will." Aegron replied coldly, "Unfortunately, I can't give you too much tolerance under the current circumstances, and you regret it now. , As if nothing happened between us and it's too late, I won't blame you."

Even if he couldn't see his face, he knew that his expression was very flat, and he knew that he was so inhumane, and even a little ignorant.

But he was convinced that, in his situation, he needed to do it.

Maid Chanel's will for revenge is very obvious and firm, but she obviously has no training, and she doesn't look like an experienced military division, just full of loyalty and enthusiasm for revenge. Such people are actually quite dangerous, because if they are careless, others in the court will see something wrong.

But it doesn't matter, she needs to be trained (or pour cold water like now) from time to time, and eventually she can let go of the jerky excitement and learn how to obey in silence.

Since hatred can make people learn to be angry, of course, it will also make people learn to forbear.

Under his gaze, Chanel was stunned for a moment, and finally lowered his head heavily.

"I see, Your Highness. I will do as you ask, so please don't drive me away..."

I am sorry. Aigron whispered in his heart.

Does it make sense for people to pay such a price? He didn't know, but since she chose this path herself, she could only go on.

He retracted his thoughts, then moved his neck and hands, then moved his legs gently, got out of bed and stood up.

As soon as he stood on the floor, he felt a little dizzy, and his legs were trembling and somewhat reluctant, but he still forcibly controlled his body and finally stood firm.

Chanel's eyes were still full of worry and anxiety, but she still didn't speak in the end, it seemed that she listened to his words.

Aigron continued to move his body, and found that he was still walking unsteadily.

Yes, it is much better than expected. I can get out of bed so soon, so I should be able to return to normal body functions soon. But there is no need to continue to force yourself.

"Now help me," Aegron said.

Chanel, who finally waited for the order, finally breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the side of the boy, hugged his body, and stabilized him.

After she stabilized, Aegron stepped forward, and with her support, he walked step by step to his usual desk.

Then, he opened the drawer on the second floor.

"Chanel?"

"Is there any order, Your Highness?" Chanel asked.

Aegron did not answer immediately, but took out something from his drawer and handed it to the other party.

In an instant, a burst of jewels made the already bright room suddenly look a little brighter.

"Yeah!" the maid exclaimed.

She clearly found that Aigron was holding a pocket watch. This pocket watch was very luxuriously decorated. The outer shell was inlaid with gold enamel, and a letter "N" was formed with small diamonds.

The teenager opened the case, because it has not been used for many years, the scale of the pocket watch has already stopped, and the inner wall is decorated with the emblem of the bee.

Looking at this pocket watch, Chanel was fascinated at once - after all, there are a few girls who can resist the charm of jewelry.

"So beautiful..." She couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course it's beautiful. This is a custom-made item for the imperial family. My father gave me a gift when I was a child." Aigron replied in a low voice, "The bee is the emblem of the Bonaparte family."

"Is that so..." Chanel blinked, staring intently at this historic gift.

"gave it to you."

"Um...um...huh?!" The sudden sentence made Chanel feel like he was hallucinating.

"Give it to you." The boy repeated again.

"You gave it to me? Why...?" Chanel's eyes widened, "I... I'm not worthy of this gift, I'm just a mere maid..."

"It's okay, I'll give it to you," Aigron insisted. "I don't need it anyway. Since I came here, I've been banned from using anything that can be associated with Napoleon's name, even the handkerchief from N. Changed it to F... I managed to hide it with great difficulty, but if I keep it in my hands, it's just hiding it in it as it is now, so I might as well give it to you and make the best use of it."

[This is true, but the pocket watch is a fictitious thing]

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Chanel was pampered and moved again, "You... You are so kind to me... I don't deserve you..."

"Did you forget what I said again?" Agron looked at Chanel.

Only then did Chanel realize that he had violated the prohibition of questioning the order.

"Yes...Yes..." She hurriedly took this precious pocket watch from Aegron's hands with excitement, her hands trembling when she took it.

Then, she put it in her arms solemnly, with a solemn expression, and then she looked at the boy again, as if full of enthusiasm.

Aigron looked at the maid's reaction and was quite satisfied.

The two people have just met now. Although the other party is extremely dependent on their trust, if blindly suppressing it will only be counterproductive, they should be rewarded appropriately.

Gold and silver jewelry meant nothing to him at all, and he didn't care.

In addition, this gift can also be used as a token. When he needs to let her contact people outside the palace in the future, as long as others see this thing, they will believe that Chanel is the person around him.

"Chanel, I will remember what I promised you." He repeated his promise again, making the other party feel his sincerity.

"I will repay you with everything I have..." Chanel bowed down.

"Help me go to the window and take a look." Aegron changed the subject.

"Yes." Chanel complied immediately and walked to the window with him.

"Is this palace beautiful?" Aigron asked suddenly.

"Very beautiful, Your Highness," Chanel replied.

"It's beautiful, but... I don't love it." Aegron looked at the high Arc de Triomphe, "It doesn't belong to me, and I like things that only belong to me."

Chanel closed his eyes slightly.
