"I just have too many things to do right now and no time to be distracted."
Because he was misunderstood that there was a problem in that area, Aigron suddenly felt a little angry and loudly refuted the priest.
But the priest seemed to have given up. Not only was he not intimidated by his anger, but he calmly retorted to him.
"When your father was doing bigger things, he didn't hesitate to be merciful and even gave birth to several illegitimate children..."
These words left Aigron speechless for a moment.
That's right. Since escaping, he has devoted all his energy to his career and has almost never thought about it. By the standards of French monarchs, he is almost a Puritan.
It’s normal for others to look suspicious...
When he thought of this, Aigron suddenly felt panicked.
"Okay, you can think whatever you want, and what can I do? Do I have to find a woman among them to prove how normal I am?" He asked angrily.
"Your Majesty, I didn't say that..." the priest shook his head quickly, "I just mean that you should put some thought into this. The Bonaparte family, with its small population, needs you to work hard to spread its branches, otherwise it will never be the same.
It’s hard to get everyone settled.”
The priest's expression was very sincere, and Aiglon also knew that Father Faria would never have said these words if he had not considered himself a close minister in his heart.
No matter how ugly his words are, his starting point is for himself. This is a servant's advice to the monarch. Although it may seem absurd, it is one of the most serious issues under the monarchy.
Because the continuation of the royal family is the continuation of the empire, and disputes over the inheritance of the royal family mean chaos in the empire's political situation and even fierce internal strife. This has always been the case.
Therefore, even though he was angry in his heart, Aigron still maintained his respect for the priest. It is not easy to find such a wise and loyal servant.
"I've decided to marry Teresa, but now she's not here, how can I let things go?" Aigron shrugged. "You are making things difficult for me."
"This is indeed a big regret." The priest nodded slightly, "So, I suggest that you seek comfort from other people first."
The so-called "other people" in his mouth are almost obvious.
After all, there is only one person around Aigron.
Aiglon frowned and looked at the priest who was silent, but the priest was very calm and looked back at him calmly, showing that he had no selfish intentions.
Could it be that Chanel secretly asked him for help?
No, it's impossible.
He didn't believe that Chanel would do this. If Chanel wanted to ask for something from him, he would definitely tell her directly.
"Chanel..." After a moment of silence, Aigron sighed. "This matter is more complicated."
"When people like you say things are complicated, then things are actually very simple. You don't want to." The priest looked at him doubtfully, "Your Majesty, although I have been in prison for almost 20 years, maybe my aesthetics are not the same as now.
It's a little out of touch, but at least in my opinion, Chanel is a very cute girl. If you are really a normal teenager as you say, then you can't be untouched when we get along day and night... So what are you worrying about?
Indifferent?"
Before Aigron could answer, he continued, "Usually when we communicate, she will inadvertently reveal her admiration for you and her gratitude to you... Just see the look in her eyes when she mentions you.
With the light that flashes, no one will doubt her infatuation with you. Your Majesty, with your intelligence, wouldn’t you be able to tell that?”
"Of course I can see that." Aigron nodded.
"Then why have you always refused to fulfill her wish?" The priest immediately asked, "Everyone can see that she treats you like a god, and she can get whatever she wants with just a word from you, so why have you always been indifferent? Could it be that you
Don’t you like her appearance?”
"How is that possible? Chanel is very cute." Aigron immediately shook his head, "And he is also considerate and takes care of others."
"Then you look down upon her humble background?" the priest asked again.
"No, when have I ever cared about this? Although Chanel was born a commoner, the Bonaparte family was just a small landowner on a poor island at the beginning. There is nothing to look down on." Aiglon shook his head again, "
Besides, now she is my honorary knight, and she will be a duchess in the future, how can I look down on her?"
"Then you can't blame some people for being suspicious." The priest sighed, "Your Majesty, ask yourself, wouldn't anyone who knows the inside story be very surprised by your actions?"
Aiglon was really speechless now.
Although he had always been very close to Chanel, he had avoided Chanel's intentional or unintentional hints. He knew that in the eyes of others, his behavior towards Chanel was a bit strange.
He didn't do it out of moral burden, he had never done that in the first place.
It's a more subtle and complex state of mind.
"Actually, I don't know how to describe...Father, to a certain extent, in my heart, she is glorious." After a moment, the young man sighed.
"How can we explain this?" the priest asked, "Do you think she is an angel?"
"It is true to a certain extent." Aigron nodded, "When I was trapped in a cage, when my heart was full of resentment, when I didn't dare to trust anyone around me, she appeared.
It brought new light to my life. Although I deliberately tested her out of instinctive doubts at first, her performance exceeded my expectations and won my trust.
Later, she assisted me in my escape... I praised her in front of many people, but it was all from the bottom of my heart. I am really grateful to her. She gave me so much spiritual encouragement and help... She is my
I am a friend, comrade, and partner, even closer than that. I don’t need to be on guard in front of her. I can feel happy and happy like an ordinary person. I don’t need to act like a king, because I know that no matter what I do, she will agree with her.
I.
For a person like me, this is the most precious thing... But because of this, I am a little afraid that I will destroy this precious property by doing more. Really, I am not lacking.
The love between men and women lacks spiritual comfort. I am afraid that once my relationship with Chanel is dragged into the most utilitarian vortex, I may lose this wealth, destroy Chanel, or make Chanel become
Not like Chanel... You may think this idea is a bit ridiculous, but that’s what I think.”
After finishing this long speech, Aigron blushed rarely.
This was the first time in his life that he confided his deepest thoughts to a person.
The other party is an old priest who is partially paralyzed, and he is loyal to him, so he does not need to be afraid of the consequences.
"Don't you think it's funny?" Aigron asked with a wry smile.
"No, it's not ridiculous, Your Majesty. It's only at this time that I feel that you are also a young man, even a poet." Father Faria shook his head gently, "Although your ideas are unique, they do have their own logic.
.”
After a pause, he suddenly raised his voice again, "However, your words are entirely based on your own position, but you have not considered her position. You are afraid of ruining the relationship between the two people, but you have not thought about it.
Is it? Your intentional or unintentional alienation is more fatal. You will make her even more sad. You make her doubt herself all the time and fear that she will be disliked and abandoned by you... The sad look she occasionally shows when she is silently meditating really makes me miserable.
The old man is a little heartbroken, can you really remain indifferent?"
Aiglon wanted to refute, but was speechless for the moment.
"You put her too high, but you are pushing her away. She doesn't need your praise at all. Instead, she only needs a more direct caress." Father Faria continued, "Let me see, the matter is very simple.
You are your Majesty, you can manipulate her however you want; she loves you and is happy to be manipulated by you, so what else can you say? Since you keep saying that you owe her, you should listen to what she has to say
, instead of throwing a bunch of things at her that she doesn’t need and being indifferent to her desires, right?”
Under the priest's questioning, Aigron actually felt speechless.
It seems there is nothing wrong with what you said...
Wait, why did the topic go so far?
"If you are afraid that Chanel will no longer be Chanel in the future, then use your authority and ability to order her to continue to be herself. You can do it, so... why not do it?" The priest's eyes were bright.
There is a god, "You are the sun, so you should act according to the sun's logic."
silence.
There was a long silence, and the young man lowered his head, seeming to be deep in thought.
"Your Majesty..." the priest spoke again.
"Okay, stop." Aigron interrupted. "I probably understand."
"Do you really understand?" the priest asked.
"That's enough!" Aiglon interrupted him impatiently, "I have my own ideas on this matter. I no longer need your advice. Let's end it here."
It seemed that he really understood... The priest laughed secretly in his heart.
Sweet little girl, I can only help you so far...don't thank me.
With a little cunning and ridicule, Father Faria moved the corners of his mouth slightly, causing a hidden smile to appear on his face.
These days, Chanel has been taking care of him with all her heart. Although Faria knows very well that the other person is only carrying out the orders of His Majesty the Emperor, he is still full of gratitude to her.
Moreover, with his intelligence, when he usually gets along with Chanel, he can guess what this little girl is thinking in just a few words.
So, taking advantage of the opportunity today, he wanted to give Rashanelle a hand, just as repaying his kindness.
Of course, his most basic starting point is indeed to think about his master.
In his opinion, the royal family is so thin that young people have the obligation to expand the family. The situation of Her Majesty Teresa is not yet known. At least for now, Chanel should be allowed to accompany His Majesty.
It would be even better if there is an illegitimate child in the future. Maybe it can play a role in protecting the royal family in the future.
Louis XIV once named the two sons born to his mistress, the Marquise de Montespan, the Duke of Mann and the Count of Toulouse. He even appointed the Duke of Mann as regent before his death to assist his great-grandson.
King Louis XV, who was only five years old.
This kind of thing has happened many times in the history of France, and everyone is not surprised.
He only hoped that after his enlightenment, this young man could let go of his worries and truly face Chanel, the girl who had been loyally accompanying him and giving silently.
This is the reward she deserves——
Aiglon returned to his room.
His face swept away the previous excitement and became serious, seeming thoughtful.
"Your Majesty... what's wrong with you?" Chanel saw something was wrong and hurriedly ran to him and asked.
"I'm fine, Chanel..." Aigron shook his head gently, then looked directly at Chanel, "Just in time, I just wanted to see you."
"You...do you have any orders?"
Chanel blushed slightly and asked in a low voice.
She was keenly aware that her vision was a little different from usual.
"No, I just want to see you." The young man still looked at Chanel and replied.
It's really cute.
Chanel was so shy that she didn't know what to do, and her heart began to beat rapidly.
"You seem to be sweating a little." After a while, Chanel said, picking up the silk scarf next to her with her numb right hand, and walked to the young man's side, "Let me wipe it for you."
"ah!"
As soon as she put her hand on the young man's forehead, her movements stopped because the young man held her hand and put it firmly on her chest.
"Your Majesty...?" Chanel looked at the young man blankly, not knowing what was happening.
"Chanel..." Aigron suddenly smiled, "Will you always obey my orders?"
Although she didn't understand what happened, Chanel nodded without thinking. "Yes, I will always obey you. This is my honor, Your Majesty!"
"Okay..." Aigron continued to smile, then lowered his head and leaned into her ear, "I am a selfish bastard, but even so, it doesn't matter. I don't allow you to leave me. I want you to follow me all the time.
My side, just like before and now, takes care of my life, relieves my troubles, worries about my worries, and rejoices in my joys...I will not allow you to refuse my order!"
Chanel opened her eyes wide, and suddenly, two tears streaked down the corners of her eyes.
"Okay, Your Majesty..." She choked and nodded, "This is what I want, and I will do it."
"Okay, I asked you to make a terrible sacrifice, and accordingly, I will give you what I should give you." Aigron gave the order again, "Close your eyes!"
Chanel immediately closed her eyes, but tears were still flowing freely.
Then, the young man's lips pressed heavily against her reddish and tender lips, and then his tongue stuck in, wantonly picking out the sweet juice.
Chanel did not resist, or in other words, she never thought of resisting.
Although she didn't know what happened, she was already satisfied, and the fear and confusion deep in her heart were being swept away with this kiss.
She even felt that her soul was soaring into the sky...
After a long time, the young man finally let go of his lips and took a step back.
Then, he looked at the other person proudly and bowed.
"Chanel, I promise you that everything I owe you will be returned to you."
