19, enlightenment and decision

"Okay, I understand, thank you."

Aigron's seemingly indifferent reaction was completely different in Chanel's eyes.

Although the time she spent with the monarch she was loyal to was still very short, as a maid, she had developed the ability to observe words and emotions since she was a child, so she already knew a little bit about his majesty.

Perhaps because of long-term repression, he is a little indifferent to others, and his words are very mean, and sometimes even a little cruel, but he never loses his temper, and he doesn't have the problem of nobles often venting their anger on others. Even if he is angry in his heart, he is still happy and angry.

He is introspective and very polite to himself and others.

But now, he should be very angry - because His Majesty really cares about his relationship with His Highness Sophie.

That's right, in this huge palace, only Her Royal Highness the Princess has always taken good care of him. It would be strange if he wasn't grateful.

Now she wanted to be comforted, but she didn't know how to comfort her. At the same time, Aigron had strictly prohibited her from interfering in her own affairs before, so now she didn't dare to speak even if she was anxious, and could only stand silently beside the young man.

Next to him, comfort him in this way.

"Chanel, I want to ask you a question." After a long time, Aigron suddenly asked, "Can you answer me from a girl's perspective?"

"Please feel free to ask." Chanel nodded immediately.

"I admit that I approached Her Highness the Princess for some utilitarian purposes. She is the most important support for my escape plan, and she is also the price I have to pay for my escape." Aigron lowered his gaze slightly dejectedly, "But

, while being utilitarian, I also like her very much. I hate myself for doing this, and I feel a sense of guilt towards her. After I just learned these things from you, my guilt is even deeper... Yes, if a person

Wouldn't it be completely heartless to be treated with such kindness by others but not feel anything at all?"

Chanel did not answer, waiting for Aigron to finish speaking. In the silent room, Aigron seemed to be talking to himself.

"But even if I apologize, the plan still has to continue, and it must continue. But it is conceivable that if I really escape, she will be blamed. In this case, will she hate me very much?"

"I probably hate you a little." After thinking about it, Chanel replied softly.

"As expected... I'm really ridiculous, and I still take chances." Aigron smiled bitterly, "Everyone will be furious when being deceived by others, right? Well, I will accept the price..."

"No, Your Highness, that's not what I meant." Chanel shook his head.

"What?"

"I have served His Highness for several years, and I know quite a bit about Your Highness. I think that instead of hating you for deceiving her, she will hate you for running away from her..." Chanel said.

He understood what he was thinking, "His Royal Highness loves you so much, he will definitely be reluctant to let you leave. After all, after leaving, I don't know when we will see each other again. I will definitely be filled with hatred when I think of this..."

Chanel's words made Aigron seem a little confused.

But it seems quite convincing.

"Then do you think I deserve her treatment?" Aigron asked again.

"Of course it's worth it!" Chanel replied without thinking. "First of all, you are personable and cute, otherwise it would be useless to say anything else. In addition, the reason why you are loved is not just because of your status.

, but because you are not willing to settle for mediocrity... You have the ambition to build a career one day. This kind of ambition and arrogance will of course be favored by His Highness. Everyone wants to admire heroes, right?"

When she said this, her face turned slightly red.

"Your Highness hates mediocre people. No matter how noble a person is, if he has mediocre intelligence and no ambition, how can he be favored? You see, His Highness the Prince doesn't look down on her at all. She doesn't even care about the Emperor.

His Majesty even looks down upon him! Sometimes women are quite contradictory, and they want their sweetheart to stay by their side all the time, but if they keep shrinking by their side, she will look down on him."

Aiglon looked at Chanel in surprise. He did not expect that Chanel could actually say such insightful words.

And it seems to make sense.

He thought carefully about Chanel's words and finally stood up from the sofa.

"You are right, I am not just a person... I also bear the expectations of too many people. My name and my situation will never allow me to be mediocre and a miserable pet, dying of old age in this place.

His Highness's expectations for me are definitely more than this." He looked at the moonlight outside the window, and then said slightly excitedly, "There is no doubt that if I run away, she will hate me, but at least I will have this hatred in the future.

Opportunities make up for it, and I will definitely make up for it; but if I just stay here and live up to everyone's expectations, then what am I? I'm just a ridiculous little reptile, what reason do I have to be loved?"

He raised his hand and pointed at the luxurious furniture and decorations in the room, "The eagle must grow up and then spread its wings. If it is just kept in this hellish place, what's the point even if it's splendid around it?"

"Your Highness, you are absolutely right!" Chanel nodded solemnly, "Even if Your Highness the Princess may be angry for a moment, she will eventually be happy for you."

"That's it." Aigron paced around the room quickly, his eyes flashing and his ambition high. "Yes, that's it."

Chanel's enlightenment made the guilt and confusion he felt just now disappear, and he devoted himself to his plan with full energy.

He knew that Chanel's words were based on her position.

Because she is afraid that she will give up, she will deliberately choose the words that can encourage her the most, but it doesn't matter, everyone has their own purpose in life, and what she says is inspiring and reasonable for her.

"Chanel, next I will look for opportunities to go to Vienna regularly with Her Royal Highness the Princess to go to the theater to watch plays, and I will find a way to take you there. I will definitely be watched and unable to go anywhere, and you will be much more relaxed.

, then you will be responsible for helping me communicate with the outside world." He stopped and explained the situation. "But you must also be careful and don't communicate with others easily..."

"Okay, I understand." Chanel immediately nodded and obeyed, and then asked, "Then...will anyone contact me?"

"We can only leave this to fate. If not, then we can only keep waiting." Aigron shook his head.

"Is that so..." Chanel was slightly disappointed.

It is obvious that Chanel does not know the location of other Bonaparte family supporters, has no contact information, and cannot even proactively search for them. This is indeed a huge shortcoming. Before Bonaparte supporters take the initiative to contact them, they

All we can do is wait quietly.

But it doesn't matter, he has been waiting for so many years and doesn't care about waiting a little longer.

"Don't be discouraged, Chanel. Apart from waiting completely passively, I have other options." Aiglon said suddenly.

"Your Highness?" Chanel regained hope.

"I told the princess that I wanted to write scripts and try to be a playwright. Although this was just an excuse for her to agree to my request, I was not just joking. I was going to write some scripts seriously and then spend money to let her

Go to the theater to perform." Aiglon turned back and looked at Chanel. "And you are responsible for contacting the actors."

"You... do you want to use this hobby to pass the time?" Chanel asked in surprise.

"No, of course not." Aigron smiled and shook his head, "I want to include some secrets of the Bonaparte family in the script, things that only the family knows. In a city like Vienna, information spreads very quickly.

It’s fast, and there is no shortage of audiences in the theater. With each performance, someone will eventually find the theater where the source came from...then we will have hope."

"Is that so?!" Chanel was surprised at first, then ecstatic. "That's great..."

Then she was a little suspicious, "But, Your Highness, weren't you only four years old when you came to Austria? How do you know any family secrets?"

This question hit home and almost made Aigron unable to maintain his expression.

You can't tell her that you saw this in various biographies and historians' works of later generations, right?

"I saw it from some of my father's letters and manuscripts that I kept around me." After a moment, he answered casually.

This answer was a bit far-fetched, but Chanel quickly believed it.

On the one hand, she had to believe it, but on the other hand, she had seen with her own eyes that Aiglon took out such a valuable royal pocket watch from the desk and gave it to herself - if even such a valuable thing could be kept secretly, then leave some letters

And the manuscript is also very simple, right?

"But in this case, when will it be successful? What if it is ignored and missed?" Chanel asked worriedly.

"It depends on the brains of my supporters and luck. Sometimes after we have done everything we can, we can only resign ourselves to fate and wait for God to give us good luck." Aigron shrugged, "Xia Nai

Well, although there is no basis for saying this, I firmly believe that I will be favored by God. If I didn’t have a little bit of luck, I wouldn’t be who I am. And I must succeed. I am nothing but success!”

Chanel looked at the young man in front of him with reverence.

He turned his back to the window and looked at himself with bright eyes. The moonlight seemed to cast a layer of brilliance on him. At this moment, his words seemed unquestionable.

Yes, this is the person I need to be loyal to, this is the person worthy of me going through fire and water!

"Your Majesty, you are right, we will definitely succeed!" She bowed deeply and saluted.

Aigron looked at the maid, then looked back at the deep and cold night sky.

Yes, the plan has already started, so there is no reason to hesitate or regret. The dice has been thrown, and then let God decide who is right and who is wrong.

I must win. Only by winning can I make up for everything I have lost. Only by winning can everything I do be reasonable and reasonable. Only by winning can I have the opportunity to live up to the expectations of others.

So, let’s go and win. The young man clenched his fists.
