After bidding farewell to Maria, Aigron was still angry, but he had learned to control his emotions over a long period of time, so he did not do anything outrageous again.
Seeing him come back, Chanel, who had been standing by her side, quickly came back. She wanted to ask what the master had talked about with Princess Maria just now, but seeing the young man's livid face, she didn't dare to ask any more questions.
.
But being completely silent didn't seem to be an option, so she had to boldly ask the young man.
"No, Chanel." Aiglon replied softly, "Let's go back, Teresa must be impatient waiting for us..."
Just as he was about to leave, after a pause, he seemed to remember something again and stopped again.
"Have you had any contact with Princess Maria before?"
"As a maid, I am not qualified to have any contact with her..." Chanel replied aggrievedly and slightly sarcastically, "And when I first entered the Bavarian court, I couldn't see any members of the royal family.
I could be yelled at by those in charge. Later, because Princess Sophie was going to marry in Austria, no one else would take the initiative to follow her there. As soon as I saw the opportunity coming, I immediately signed up hoping to serve His Highness there;
The people above saw that I was agile and young, so they agreed to my request. It was only then that I had the opportunity to come into contact with their highnesses..."
Of course Aigron understood that Chanel took the initiative to go to a foreign country not because she was loyal to the Bavarian royal family or to please Sophie, but to take the opportunity to come to the Austrian court and get close to him.
So when he heard this, he couldn't help but stretched out his hand and stroked Chanel's cheek to encourage her. "Well, you did a good job."
Chanel smiled slightly, and then continued, "After coming to Her Majesty Sophie, I met Her Majesty Maria several times. To be honest, my impression of her was not very good.
I can easily make others angry, but fortunately my identity is not worthy of her attention, so she didn’t make me feel bad..."
Aigron's expression became strange.
"Sophie seems to be like this too."
"Yes, I just won't do this to you." Chanel replied with a smile.
After laughing for a while, she shook her head slightly and said, "The two Highnesses are twins after all. Their personalities and ways of doing things are indeed very similar... However, based on my experience, there seems to be a slight difference, Su
Princess Fei is more dignified, she looks down on people when she looks down on them, and she is forthright when she satirizes others, but Her Royal Highness Maria is a bit..."
Chanel suddenly seemed a little confused about how to express her words.
"Yin and yang strange energy?" Aigron added in time.
He shed tears when he said it too much. This was a valuable experience he gained after two meetings.
"Yes! That's the feeling!" Chanel immediately nodded heavily and agreed with this evaluation, "Her Royal Highness Maria can often make others angry with a smile and belittle others in a roundabout way. Sometimes she even seems to take pleasure in it.
...Hey, it seems that Her Majesty the Queen has been extremely angry with her several times."
Aigron finally understood. It turned out that she was not targeting herself specifically. She was doing this to everyone equally.
Considering that people of the same sex are repulsive, Chanel's evaluation is bound to have some personal subjective color, but from the experience gained by Aigron from his two contacts with her, it is indeed inseparable.
When he said this, Aigron suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had consulted with Chanel earlier, he wouldn't have been so passive. It was a pity that he buried everything in his heart at that time.
If he had known Maria's character earlier, he would not have allowed himself to be so passive.
Forget it, since the matter has reached this point, there is no point in worrying about it. Anyway, everyone will meet at dinner later, and there is no way to hide. Aigron has decided that no matter what happens later, he must not get angry, lest he get angry.
Things got worse.
Suddenly, Aigron suddenly thought of a very important question, "Chanel, what is the relationship between the two sisters?"
Chanel frowned again and began to think. After a moment, she answered softly, "I can't tell clearly... Sometimes the two of them get along very closely and seem to talk about everything, but sometimes they ridicule and belittle each other, as if they have to argue.
There is no difference between one person and one person."
Eggron can also imagine why this is the case. The two sisters cherish each other because they were born at the same time, but because they both have arrogant and sharp personalities, they instinctively reject the other "identical" self, so they are sometimes close and sometimes quarrel and despise.
So, how much grief does Maria feel about what happened to her sister?
He couldn't guess the answer, but he instinctively felt something was wrong.
It's a pity that things have reached this point, and the letter written to Sophie has already been in her hands. What's the point of being anxious or worried anymore?
Aigron could only take a deep breath, and then returned to his usual calm.
"Okay, I understand, thank you. Let's go back."
Then, he made a gesture, and Chanel, who was still full of doubts, had to keep calm, and then brought Aigron back to the living room.
When they came back, it was already dusk, and Teresa was still having a silly conversation with Princess Augusta, such as "The weather is very good today, the weather in Austria is better, and the weather in Greece is the best."
There is no other way to talk. This is the need for social interaction. Even if two people are impatient, they must continue.
After seeing her husband come back, Teresa finally breathed a sigh of relief, freed herself from this dull chat, and then looked at her husband with a happy smile.
"Honey, are you feeling better?" she asked cheerfully.
"Well, I feel much better." Aigron nodded calmly, then walked to his wife's side, "Are you having fun talking?"
"I'm so happy! Her Royal Highness Augusta is a very cheerful and gentle person. She has created a happy family. I have received many useful teachings from her." Teresa used words commonly used in social circles.
answer.
"Well, I feel very happy too. Princess Teresa is very pleasant to get along with." Princess Augusta also smiled and replied, "I really hope you can have a big family soon. Children are given to us by God.
The more angels you have around you, the better.”
"We will work hard..." Teresa replied shyly.
Princess Augusta looked at the wall clock next to her, and then looked out the window.
"It seems that another guest has arrived." Then, she turned around and said, "I saw her carriage."
"Well, is there another guest?" Teresa had the same doubts as Chanel just now. After all, Princess Augusta was a guest today, and no one would normally come to visit at this time.
"Hey, she is too willful, but what can I do? After all, she is my sister, even if she is not the same mother, I have to tolerate it a little." Princess Augusta smiled bitterly, and then she reminded the young man in front of her.
Couple, "Well, now that she's here, how about we have dinner together later?"
"Of course it's no problem. Since she is your sister, Her Royal Highness the Princess of Bavaria, of course we should respect her more." Teresa agreed without thinking.
"She is not an easy person to get along with...sometimes it is quite nerve-wracking." Princess Augusta still smiled bitterly, and then she seemed to have thought of something, "However, even though you met her for the first time,
, but I thought maybe you two would feel a little familiar and cordial."
"..." Teresa looked at her in confusion, not sure what she meant.
Suddenly, a very bad feeling arose in Theresa's heart. She vaguely seemed to have thought of something, but she couldn't find any inspiration.
However, the development of reality did not require her to think any more. She did not wait long before the door was opened by a servant, and then, with her skirt fluttering, a woman wearing a soft hat and holding a folding fan slowly walked in.
Teresa's attention was instantly absorbed by her.
Familiar is very familiar, but not friendly at all.
"Your Highness Sophie..." Teresa exclaimed, "How could you be here?"
"She is not Her Royal Highness Sophie." Princess Augusta immediately replied, "She is Sophie's twin sister, Maria Theresa. Am I right? You must have recognized her at a glance!"
After hearing this explanation, Teresa immediately understood what Princess Augusta meant when she said, "Although it is your first time to meet her, I think you two may feel a little familiar and cordial."
what.
It stands to reason that she has also studied the genealogy of various royal families and already knew that Sophie had a twin sister. However, she has always avoided contact with Sophie, and even deliberately forgot things related to her. Over time, she has no idea.
Pay attention to this.
But when that identical face appeared in front of him again, the dust-laden memories began to vividly appear before his eyes again.
Familiar is very familiar, but not friendly at all.
From Princess Maria's half-smiling expression, she can always find the familiar sarcasm.
Almost instantly, Teresa turned her gaze slightly and looked at her husband. What greeted her was Aigron's surprise and slightly embarrassed apologetic look.
He's not surprised enough! Teresa immediately said in her mind.
Based on her understanding of her husband, once he saw Princess Maria for the first time here, even if he knew that she was just Sophie's twin sister, he would not be so calm.
So, what did he know? Had the Bavarians secretly informed him before? Theresa immediately became suspicious.
Also, why did Princess Maria come to visit in such a rude manner when her sister was still receiving guests? Now it seems that there is an answer. She did it on purpose.
Teresa didn't know what was going on, but she knew it was definitely not as simple as it seemed.
Aren't all those grievances and disputes over? Why are they endless... She suddenly felt a pain in her head, and the original relaxation and comfort were swept away in an instant.
Mrs. Augusta didn't know what happened in Austria, so her mood was as relaxed as before. When Maria came next to her, she took the initiative to speak to Theresa.
"When I heard that Maria wanted to visit me today, I was a little surprised, but maybe this is fate... Her sister is in Austria, and I heard that she takes good care of Aigron, and now she also happens to meet her.
you."
How could this be fate? She must have done it on purpose! Teresa thought to herself.
When she thought of this, she felt a little worse. Although she didn't know what Princess Maria wanted to do, she definitely didn't feel any kindness from the other party's smile.
"Yes, we have received so much care from Her Highness Sophie." Although she thought so in her heart, Teresa still maintained her demeanor on the surface, "It's a pity that after we leave Austria, it will be difficult to see her again in the future...
"
Then, she looked at Maria again, "Your Highness, it is my honor to meet you. I'm sorry, I mistook you for your sister just now."
"Your Highness Teresa, I have heard about you for a long time. I am very happy to see you today. You are indeed as beautiful and dignified as the rumors say. It doesn't matter. You don't have to feel bad. We have always been misunderstood. We have been this way since we were children."
Maria put a smile on her face, and then answered in a tolerant tone, "Even those closest to us often make mistakes like this, let alone you?"
Although this sentence sounded very ordinary, Teresa couldn't help but glance at Agron.
Aiglon's continued silence made her a little impatient.
"My dear, shouldn't you say hello?" So she urged. "She is your aunt's twin sister. You can't be rude."
"It's okay, just treat me as an ordinary friend, you don't have to be so unfamiliar." Maria replied nonchalantly, and then seemed to think of something again, looking at Theresa with a curious smile, "As far as I know, Theresa
Your Highness, your father is the younger brother of Duke Lechstadt's maternal grandfather. If we want to talk about elders, it seems that you should be regarded as your husband's elders? Are you also respectful when you get along on a daily basis? That's really true.
Quite tiring.”
When asked by Maria, Teresa was suddenly speechless and had nowhere to vent the anger in her heart.
She discovered that Maria was indeed hostile to her and her words seemed to be as vicious as Sophie's.
They are indeed sisters, what a virtue... Those gray memories of the past came to mind again, leaving Teresa with mixed feelings.
At this time, Aigron realized that he could no longer remain silent, so he spoke reluctantly, "I am very happy to meet you, Your Highness Maria. I am very grateful to Your Highness Sophie for taking care of me back then, so I have a lot to see you."
Feeling."
"Your Highness, the price of bearing your gratitude is a bit high." Maria replied with a smile, "I thank you on my sister's behalf. She will definitely be very happy to know that you and your wife are happily enjoying the warm hospitality of our country.
?”
At this time, Princess Augusta finally realized that something was not right about the atmosphere.
"Okay, it's dinner time, let's go have a meal together." She forcibly interrupted the unpleasant conversation and then made a gesture.
