Eagle’s Glory

Chapter 25: 25, planning

Under Aegron's sincere apology, Princess Sophie finally forgave Aegron's previous absurd behavior, so the two abandoned their previous suspicions, as if returning to the previous state of intimacy.

After the relationship was restored as before, the mood of the two became relaxed and happy, so they began to watch the drama seriously.

After all, Princess Sophie is a Bavarian, so she likes music and drama very much, so she explains Aigron while watching the drama.

However, it seems that she doesn't like the performance of this theater very much, and she doesn't care about the details of the actors' acting skills and the stage setting. In her words, the level is very mediocre.

"Since the level here is very mediocre, why did you bring me here?" Aegron was a little puzzled.

"Because it's not a well-known theater, I'll take you here to go to those big theaters. What if someone who's seen me recognizes me?" Princess Sophie asked. "Although I married here not long ago, there are quite a few people who met me by the way when I came to the palace to meet His Majesty."

Aigron also makes perfect sense when he thinks about it.

"Even if we come here, we can't take it lightly." Princess Sophie warned Aegron carefully, "If there is any trouble, I don't care, but it will be very difficult to continue to bring you here."

"Don't worry, I won't cause you any trouble." Aigron nodded, then looked towards the stage, "Being able to come here to watch the play is already my unexpected happiness, I What more can you continue to ask for?"

The young man's seemingly happy, but actually sentimental sigh touched the princess' heartstrings again, she couldn't help but habitually stroked his forehead with love and pity.

"Aigron, don't be discouraged, one day I will become the one who speaks the truth here, and then you can do whatever you want. If anyone makes irresponsible remarks about you, I will make him unable to enter the palace for the rest of his life. inside."

Aegron was deeply moved by Her Royal Highness's so affectionate words.

The more moved, the more apologetic he felt.

I'm sorry, Your Highness, I have no choice, I can't wait until that day...

Just as the two were talking, there was a light knock on the door of the box.

"Who?" Her Royal Highness withdrew her hand and asked very displeased.

"Your Highness, it's me." A male voice came from the door. "Sorry to disturb you."

Aegron could easily hear it. This was the voice of his military and swordsmanship teacher, Captain Foresti, who was also the protector when he was out.

Princess Sophie made a gesture to signal Chanel behind her to open the door.

When the door opened, the captain walked in quickly.

"Is something wrong, sir?" asked Princess Sophie nonchalantly.

"Sorry, Your Highness..." The captain's expression was a little weird, "We are being questioned by the secret police."

"Huh?" Her Royal Highness frowned.

"Your actions just now attracted the attention of the secret police." The captain explained in a low voice, "Now, we are at a stalemate. What do you think should be done?"

Since becoming prime minister, Prince Metternich has always believed that tight and severe control of the people is necessary in order to control the situation and avoid a repeat of the French disaster in Austria.

In order to achieve this, he strictly controlled the press and published a secret police force. These secret policemen dressed in plainclothes and wandered in crowded places such as cafes, theaters, etc., in order to suppress the public's speech and put an end to any "dangerous thoughts". " spread.

Such a high-pressure rule naturally caused resentment among the citizens of Vienna, but because of his powerful power, everyone could bear it until 1848, when the citizens of Vienna who rebelled in anger finally ousted the Prime Minister.

In the eyes of the secret police, Princess Sophie was acting in the theater just now, and it was very suspicious no matter how she looked at it, so she was about to come over for questioning, but was stopped by the captain and others, and there was almost a conflict.

"How dare these ghosts come to get in my way?" After hearing the reason for the incident, Her Royal Highness the Princess was furious. "It's my freedom to buy what I like, is it their turn to take care of it?"

Like you just now, it's no wonder you're not suspected... The captain can only say this in his heart.

"His Royal Highness, what do you think should be done?" the captain asked cautiously, "Should we reveal our identity directly to them, or..."

"Take me there and I'll handle it." Her Royal Highness interrupted him a little irritably.

"But..." The captain hesitated, for fear of trouble.

"Take me there!" Her Royal Highness gave him another order without giving him time to think about it.

So, the two of them walked out of the box.

The box was quiet again, and only Aigron and Chanel were left.

Aigron leaned against the railing and quietly watched the performance on the stage. His expression was calm, and he knew that it was not the time for trouble.

"Chanel." After a while, he said.

"Your Highness, do you have any orders?" Chanel asked.

"Chanel, I just observed, there are only stairs on both sides from the first floor to the third floor, and if you want to go downstairs from our box, you must go through a corridor." Agron turned back and whispered to Chanel, "And my teacher, Captain Feresti, is sitting in that corridor, and it is very difficult, almost impossible, to pass him without incident. And... there are other guards here, and the secret police, so With a lot of manpower, it is definitely not something I can break through.”

This was the conclusion he had come to after thinking about it for a long time.

"Then what?" Chanel asked worriedly.

Aegron did not answer immediately, but stuck his head out from the box, glanced from the stage and the auditorium on the first floor, and observed the environment in the theater again.

"The only way is to jump from the box and fall directly into the auditorium." In the end, he seemed to be talking to himself. "Then, mix in the crowd and rush out through the gate."

"Yeah!" Although his voice was very soft and his demeanor was calm, Chanel couldn't help but turn pale when he heard it. "Jump...jump down?"

She also walked to the railing, then looked down, measured the height in her heart, and shook her head, "Your Highness, this is too dangerous."

"Of course I'm not stupid enough to just jump down like this." Aegron couldn't help laughing and crying, "I'm pretty good at it, as long as I use a little tool—such as a rope or something else, I can slide down from it. This height is not enough to let me down. To the extent that I am intimidated, I can try it. Besides, it is impossible to achieve great things without taking a little risk.”

"Then... what if the audience below notices it?" Chanel finally calmed down, but soon had new doubts, "If someone slipped down from the box on the third floor, the people below would definitely scream out. Speak! When the time comes, people will still not be able to run away.”

"Yes, this is the real problem." Aegron nodded. "So, we need someone to help me create chaos in the theater and cover me from running out of the theater. At the same time, it's useless to just run out of the theater, I need someone to pick me up outside and help me escape Vienna, that's all , can be regarded as the completion of my initial plan.”

"Indeed..." Chanel looked at the young man with sincerity, "Your Highness, your consideration is really thoughtful."

"No matter how thoughtful you are, you can only rely on luck in the end... Maybe this is life." Aegron smiled bitterly, "If no one comes to us, we can only wait until we do, I hope not. It's been too long, and I'm sure my supporters must miss me terribly - after all, they can't do anything without my name."

"Yes, Your Highness, we all need you!" Chanel nodded heavily, encouraging the master in this way, "We've all waited too long."

"Chanel, your task is very heavy. Once someone tries to find me, it's time for you to serve me." Aegron stretched out his hand and put it on her shoulder, "Remember, the empire is on your side. On your shoulders, keep your eyes open and don't miss any opportunity."

Chanel's breathing became a little sluggish.

She seemed to feel that the boy's hand on her shoulder was extremely important, and the strong sense of mission and honor overwhelmed her so much that she could hardly breathe.

"Yes! Your Highness." She tried to restrain herself and replied with the utmost respect, "I will do my best to complete the mission you have entrusted..."

At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door again, the two immediately interrupted the conversation, and then Chanel opened the door.

"It's really annoying." Princess Sophie complained and walked in quickly, "I finally got rid of these annoying flies!"

"Is it resolved so soon?" Aegron was a little curious, "Your Highness, how did you send them off? Did you reveal your identity?"

"Of course not. If we reveal our identities with these ghosts, then what's the point of us coming out in a micro-clothing?" Her Royal Highness shook her head, and then laughed again. "Fortunately, I didn't expect a similar situation before, so I did a little preparation."

There was some slyness and mischief in her smile, like a child who succeeded in mischief, Aigron was aroused by curiosity.

"What's the preparation?"

"I asked for a passport from the officials of the Bavarian embassy before, and I also told them that we are the family members of the embassy officials, and it is my freedom to go to the theater. If it disturbs my entertainment, they will be responsible for all the diplomatic responsibilities arising therefrom. ." Her Royal Highness replied with a smile on her face. "Sure enough, after I said that, they didn't dare to ask more. After all, what crime did I commit when I was willing to spend money?"

"So it is." Aegron suddenly realized, and then complimented the other party convincingly, "You are really amazing."

"It's not you who makes me so tired." Her Royal Highness glared at him.

Then, she waved her hand again, "Okay, let's leave these things alone, let's continue watching the show, time is running out."
