Eagle’s Glory

In just a few words, Maria let herself overwhelm Andrei in aura—although she is now in a state of "holding hands" in a strict sense, but considering her special status, Andre Davout is not. Dare to make a mistake, not to mention that he thought that His Highness and His Majesty had some personal relationship, so he could only be more respectful.

After calling Andre away, Maria reopened the door and walked into the bedroom. Then, the smile on her face disappeared, and she looked at the young man lying on the bed with a reluctant expression.

"Okay, as you wish, I've asked my entourage to arrange the packing, and we can leave at night—"

Aegron felt ashamed, so he could only smirk and thank him.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Your Highness."

"Such insincere words are meaningless to say." Maria shook her head, not intending to calm down at all. "Okay, now the only question, where do you want to go?"

"Let's go south, let's go to the Principality of Parma together—" Aigron said his long-planned answer.

The Principality of Parma is adjacent to the Lombard Kingdom, and the distance is so close that he can avoid bumps on the road as much as possible.

Moreover, it is now ruled by his mother, which, strictly speaking, should be the safest place he can find shelter now.

Even more ideally, he also possessed a forged identity document her mother had given him, or sneaked into the Principality in a conspicuous manner.

The only problem is that he doesn't have a good relationship with his mother, but this problem is no longer a problem - he has reconciled with his mother on the surface, and her mother also asks him, so this time she should also choose to cover this up Worrying son.

Emotionally, Aigron doesn't want to see his mother again, but now is not the time to talk about feelings, and he won't give up his reason because of a little entanglement.

"Go to Parma?" Maria was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood Aigron's intention, but she was still a little hesitant, "Your mother...will you cooperate?"

Apparently, she'd also heard rumors of Aegron's feud with her mother, so she hesitated a bit.

"It doesn't matter, she's not that patriotic..." Aigron smiled, "For her, family is more important, and now she won't harm me."

Maria understood that Louisa would protect the eldest son, but Aigron knew that in the eyes of his mother, the two children of her and Count Nepeg were more important - just to make the eldest son a protector, so he would treat him Just look at it differently.

Now that the young people have mentioned this, Maria no longer doubts it any more. In her opinion, this is indeed a good solution.

Louisa is the ruler of the duchy, and if she has her protection, it will be much more difficult for that Bianka to hunt down.

"Okay, then do as you say." Maria nodded and agreed with him.

However, when she said this, she became a little annoyed, "Hmph, I blame you! I just came out to have a look, but the journey turned into a mess! I risked my life and almost died under the sword at this moment. go to another place!"

Aigron could only smile bitterly.

"I'm sorry, it's really my fault, but it's not what I want to see... I can only blame the capricious fate. Don't worry, once you're there, once it's safe to do so, I will I'll see you off immediately, and you can definitely go home safely."

In other words, on the road, Maria was his talisman.

"It's all your fault! I got into such a troublesome situation!" Maria didn't seem to listen to his advice at all, and still scolded him indignantly, "When I meet your mother, how should I introduce it? How should I explain it? "

Agron was stunned.

At this time, do you still need to consider this issue? He felt a little ridiculous.

But looking back, he realized that this was indeed a problem.

In any case, Maria is a princess of a country, and she can't hide her identity from her mother-because she and Sophie look exactly the same, and Luisa has seen Sophie, so it's impossible not to recognize her.

Therefore, both of them are princesses, and etiquette must be taken into account, but it seems that it is not right to follow the official etiquette, because in theory, Maria did not make an official visit to the Principality of Parma, and there was no prior notification.

Besides, how should I explain my relationship with Maria to my mother?

"Mom, this is my mistress's twin sister, and I'm going to get her too—"

Uh, if she said that, would she feel very happy and proud of this arrogant son? Or will he tie himself up and give it to his father in a rage?

Hey, thinking about it too much is a headache, and Aigron finally felt that he should not think about these things first.

The boat will naturally go straight when it reaches the bridge, so let’s save your life first!

So, he suddenly stretched out his right hand and took Maria's hand.

"Huh?!" Maria looked at him in surprise, but stopped complaining.

"His Royal Highness, I'm very sorry for the trouble I've caused you, but since you've helped me and tolerated me like this, you might as well believe me again. I don't think this problem is difficult to solve. Although my mother is not a magnanimous People, but she also knows the priorities of things, will not embarrass us all because of some inexplicable things, and she will pretend to be invisible when necessary."

Aigron said whatever, and finally made Maria no longer tangled.

So, after a quick preparation, they packed their bags and prepared to leave the hotel.

After a lot of tossing, the owner of the hotel also knew that the identity of these guests was no trivial matter, so he was very cooperative.

Soon, the group took advantage of the night to leave. Aigron was still seriously injured, so Andre Davout had someone make a simple stretcher and personally carried him to Maria's carriage, and then rode on a horse. Follow along with the carriage.

The group quickly left the city of Milan, and at this time, the secretary Leon Esposito, who had been staying in the manor and had received the news, also rushed over to meet, even the traitor that Aigron captured and tortured. Russo was also brought over by him.

Milan was very close to Parma, and because of the cover of Maria, the trip went quite smoothly. After just one day, they came to the territory of the Principality of Parma.

For Aegron, this was a completely unexpected journey. He hadn't thought about looking for her since he said goodbye to his mother last time, but his fate was so unpredictable that he could only laugh at it.

The Principality of Parma is a very small country, and Aigron came to the hotel where he lived last time - but, last time he came, he was followed by his wife Teresa, and this time, he There was another person beside him.

After coming here, he asked his captain of the guard Andre Davout to find the palace with his letter, and handed it over to his mother's attendant through the previously agreed method.

It didn't take long for a few people to come quietly to visit where Aegron stayed.

These people were taken outside Aigron's room, and the leader was the Grand Duchess Louisa in casual clothes.

Although Louisa was very surprised, she still seemed calm, she backed away, and then walked to her son's house alone.

In the letter, Aegron had already said that he was injured, but he did not say the reason, so when he saw the young man lying on the bed, his mother was not very surprised, but a little sadness flashed in his eyes.

Although this middle-aged woman has a mediocre intelligence, she has experienced countless turbulent events in her short life, so she can be considered to have developed a little mentality. Although things were rushed, she did not panic.

"My son, how did you bring things to this point?" she asked Aigron in a low voice. "Did you get hunted because of trouble in France?"

Although it was in a remote location, the news of Louisa was not very closed. Of course, she also heard the news that Aigron ran to France to stir up the flames. Then, seeing that her son was injured, she would naturally make this reasonable speculation.

Although this speculation is somewhat biased, it is also close to the truth to a certain extent.

The inside story is very complicated, and Aigron didn't want to explain in detail, so he just answered vaguely, "I was assassinated by an assassin in Milan. Although it is not certain that it was sent by the Bourbon family, it should have something to do with France."

"King Charles X is really a despicable and shameless person!" Louisa was convinced that it must have been done by the French King, so she was filled with righteous indignation, "What he did can only prove his guilty conscience. If you wanted to assassinate the two brothers when your father was alive, they would have already died more than ten times, who would be as despicable as them!"

It's not that Louisa hates the Bourbon family, but as a member of the orthodox royal family, she feels that the medieval method of assassinating political opponents is too cheap, not to mention that the victim is her own son.

Of course, she is another standard for her son's deliberate conspiracy to subvert the kingdom of France.

Seeing his mother so angry, Aegron felt a lot better.

"Thank you for your kind words for me." Aegron expressed his gratitude to his mother, "Although I am seriously injured, I am more confident now, which shows the weakness of my enemies - they have no confidence to follow I compare, that's why I use this method."

Louisa's expression was uncertain, as if she was thinking about something.

"Do you want me to take you to my palace as a guest? It should be safer there."

"No need." Aigron shook his head immediately. "There are too many people in your palace. If I go there now, the news will be leaked soon, and I don't want to cause you trouble."

Under the circumstance that he has offended the French royal family heavily, if his mother brought him to her own palace with great fanfare, it would inevitably cause some disputes, and Aigron did not want to make trouble.

"Okay..." Luisa nodded, and felt that Aigron was right, "Then you can take care of your injuries here, I will secretly let people pay attention to the safety here, and there will be no suspicious people approaching. you."

Aegron breathed a sigh of relief after receiving his mother's promise.

After all, she is the ruler here. As long as she has her protection, no matter how elusive Bianka is, it is impossible for him to endanger himself. As long as the injury is healed, he can come and go freely again.

He knew that he owed his mother a favor this time, so he rarely softened his attitude toward her mother.

"Thank you, ma'am... Whether it's your help or the righteous indignation you just sent out for me, I'm glad that I was able to find you for asylum."

"Son, you don't need to say such polite words, you won't be truly grateful to me, and I don't need such meaningless gratitude-you and I both take what we need, and I don't help me out of nothing. Yours." Luisa smiled slightly, "If you come to me for help and I leave you behind, how should I explain to Ambrose and William? They have been preparing to serve you."

Since Louisa spoke so thoroughly, Aigron didn't say anything more.

He also knew in his heart that in his mother's heart, the most important child was not himself after all, and it was no longer easy for him to do this.

"By the way, there's something you want to explain to me—" Luisa suddenly changed the subject, "I saw a woman who was exactly like Sophie in your entourage. Who is she? Acacia is bitter, so you deliberately found a similar-looking woman to be your mistress?"

Aegron secretly marveled at his mother's imagination - does this imagination come from life, or is it the inevitable crankiness of people in middle age?

No matter what, he must refute the rumor.

"No, no, she is the twin sister of Her Royal Highness Sophie, Her Royal Highness Maria."

"What!?" Louisa was really stunned now. "What's going on? How did you kidnap a Bavarian princess? Is this crazy?"

"You don't need to be so imaginative..." Aegron sneered a little embarrassingly, "She came here voluntarily to help me, and this is a very long story."

Then, he explained to his mother why he and His Royal Highness Maria had fallen into the present situation by accident. Of course, he deliberately blurred out some specific details.

Louisa listened quietly, and did not comment until Aigron finished speaking, "That is to say, after being offended many times by you, she still forgave you, or did she choose to help you? Why?"

"Maybe for Sophie's sake," Aegron replied.

Louisa frowned slightly, as if in disbelief.

"What about you? My son, what are you going to do to her?"

"Of course I can only be grateful to her—" Aegron replied.

"Everyone you've been thankful for so far has been unlucky, your maternal grandfather, Archduke Karl, Sophie—" Luisa replied calmly, "As a new member of the list, what are you going to do to her? "

Hello! How can you see your son that way without putting a little trust in it? ! Aegron was furious.

But sadly, it seems... true.

Seeing that her son was silent, Luisa shook her head and gave up asking.

"My son, you are already an adult, and you have always been used to your own way. In reality, you have proved that you can do whatever you want, and I shouldn't say more - I just ask you to think, Some things are not as easy to manipulate as you think, and once you play with fire, they can turn into disasters..."
