When this thought came to his mind, Aigron suddenly lost his words.
It was a crazy idea that frightened him.
He has not made any plans for this, and it is impossible for him to make such a dangerous move just on impulse.
The more critical question is, what will Princess Sophie think? If she is not happy or even hates this idea, then it may mean that her previous efforts to bring the two people closer have been wasted.
Therefore, caution must be taken.
But even though he told himself in his heart not to mess around, he was still excited by this sudden idea.
He blinked and looked at Princess Sophie, who was helplessly letting him hold her hand and watching the performance on the stage.
Looking at her angry and slightly ashamed profile, Aigron couldn't help but feel his heart beat.
Would she really be unwilling? He asked himself.
No matter what, he wanted to give it a try, even if he took the risk.
If you want something but are too timid to take any action, then you will never get it.
Of course, it was not at this moment. He was not mentally prepared, and neither was she...
"What's wrong with you? Are you in a daze again?" Seeing his strange behavior, Princess Sophie couldn't help but turned her head and asked with concern.
"Your Highness, you are so beautiful that I forgot my words for a moment." Aigron blurted out, "I am willing to pay any price to stay in this moment."
"Don't be crazy!" Princess Sophie immediately blushed and scolded him angrily, but she didn't do anything. She just turned her head away, as if she didn't dare to look into his eyes again.
Unknowingly, although she was as kind to him as ever, it seemed that she was no longer the strong and tolerant elder to the younger generation, but had a lot more girlish shyness.
Yes, she is also enjoying the youth she once lost.
"If admiring you means being crazy, then please let me lose all my mind." Aiglon replied in a low voice.
Then, he couldn't help but push His Highness's fingers away with his hand, and then directly inserted it into the gap between the fingertips. The two of them intertwined their fingers and held it.
"Aiglon! You are so ridiculous today!" Princess Sophie glared at him again, "If you do this again, I will be angry!"
Okay, let's stop here.
"Your Highness, please don't abandon me..." Aiglon suddenly spoke, "I am indeed a bad boy who makes you unhappy and causes you trouble. I may do things that make you even more angry in the future, but even then... …I also want to ask you shamelessly, don’t abandon me, don’t forget the love between us…is that okay? Because I really don’t want to lose you.”
These words were not his pre-planned lines, nor were they rehearsed in his mind. They were a rare expression of his true feelings.
What he prayed for was a heart that cared for him.
That heart was destined to be severely broken by him, but even so, he wanted to beg for forgiveness because he could not bear the cost of losing it.
"Hey...why are you so scared?" Seeing how nervous he looked, Princess Sophie thought her tone was too harsh and scared the boy, so she quickly changed her tone, "I just told you not to go too far. What are you so afraid of? Well...well, you can hold it if you want. It's really hard to do anything about it."
After a pause, she smiled again and comforted the young man, "Don't worry, I will not abandon my caring and lovely Aigron..."
"Really? That's great." Aigron calmed down. "I feel relieved."
"Okay, stop making trouble, I still want to watch the show." Princess Sophie stroked his hair with her other hand with a friendly smile, acquiescing to his rude and abrupt behavior, "Oh
, what would you do without me..."
After finishing speaking, she turned her head again and looked towards the stage.
Although she sounded helpless, her expression at the moment was shy but excited, with a reddish glow on her fair face, inadvertently revealing her true mood at the moment.
Aiglon kept holding her hand, feeling the warm touch in her palm.
There is no doubt that he received Her Highness's unspeakable favor, and even such an unruly behavior was tolerated by her tenderly.
However, how could he be satisfied with such a small gain?
The more gentle and approachable His Highness Sophie is to him, the more the young man desires more. Years of imprisonment have made his soul extremely dry. When he finally meets someone who is willing to be kind and gentle to him, he
The mind is like a sponge, eager to swallow more and not knowing where to find satisfaction.
Time passed unconsciously, and gradually, the drama on the stage came to an end, and then the curtain came down.
The audience burst into warm applause, obviously liking the show quite well.
"It's such a pity that it ended so soon... This drama was quite enjoyable." Her Royal Highness sighed, as if she was reluctant to let the drama end here.
She adjusted her mood and finally returned to her normal demeanor, if she ignored the hands held by the two people.
In fact, he didn't care about the performance on the stage at all, or in other words, he was not in the mood to pay attention to the stage at all.
There was another moment of silence.
"So, it's time for you to let go, Aiglon." Princess Sophie signaled the boy with her eyes, "The time is coming, we can't just walk out like this, right?"
"Okay, Your Highness." Aigron nodded.
Although he was unwilling to do so, he understood Her Royal Highness's difficulty, so he let go of his hand obediently.
Princess Sophie, who was finally relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and then signaled to Aiglon. "Okay, let's go, it's time to go home."
"That's not home, it's just a place where I live." But Aigron did not take steps immediately, but replied coldly and dejectedly, "There, Miss Sophia Memmingen will transform back into Her Royal Highness Princess Sophie.
...Cinderella put on the glass slipper and became a princess, but my princess can only occasionally put on the glass slipper to become Cinderella."
"Don't be silly, I'm the same everywhere." Princess Sophie shook her head, "Even there, I'm still taking care of you."
"But the prince only wants Cinderella, not the princess." Aiglon replied stubbornly.
Princess Sophie understood the meaning and smiled slightly helplessly.
"But don't worry, Cinderella doesn't want to be an ignorant and silly girl this time. She studies under the witch, and sooner or later she will hold the wand of power. At that time, she can be both a princess and Cinderella, Your Highness the Prince
Whatever he wants, Cinderella can give it to him with a wave of her wand...Aiglon, isn't it wonderful that the story ends like this?"
Yes, if this is the ending, everything seems so wonderful, as if in a fairyland.
However, it is this "sooner or later", damn sooner or later, that determines everything!
An uncontrollable anger surged into Aigron's heart.
Of course, this anger was not directed at his Centirella, but at history's teasing and helplessness against the King of Rome and himself.
You know, the old Emperor Franz lived for almost ten more years, and after his death, the mentally retarded Prince Ferdinand, who was sick and seemed to die at any time, remained emperor for more than ten years, a full 22 years.
Years later, Cinderella forced the emperor to abdicate, then ordered her husband not to succeed to the throne, and gave the throne of the Habsburg family to her son. In the end, she truly became the empress dowager and mastered the wand of power in the empire.
Historically, the King of Rome and Princess Sophie were extremely close. Perhaps he passed away amid unwillingness and pain with the expectation of a fairy tale ending for Cinderella.
Fairy tales are just fairy tales after all, and reality can always crush them.
Even if he could escape illness and accidents and live for decades, he wouldn't be able to pay the price of waiting 22 years for another fairy tale. He might have been driven crazy long ago.
Therefore, no matter how beautiful it looks, he cannot make this choice.
So...instead of waiting for the witch to slowly grant the wand to Cinderella, it would be better for him to take a risk, grab the wand from the witch's hand, and use it according to his own will. You can't get anything by just being patient. See
No matter how beautiful the fairy tale seems to be, it is just a mirage.
Yes, this is the only way to go.
Your destiny can only be in your own hands. If it is taken away by others, then find a way to get it back. It is worth paying any price for it.
Only by regaining control over his own destiny can he find the Cinderella that is waiting for him in an upright manner.
In the midst of the rushing thoughts, the dull and painful feeling of guilt in the young man's heart gave way to passion, and a raging fire was once again ignited in his heart.
"Aiglon, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that the boy was still in a daze, Princess Sophie couldn't help but urge him, "Let's go quickly. If it's later, there won't be enough time."
"Sister Sophia." The young man suddenly raised his head, "I remember what you just said."
"What did I say?" Princess Sophie blinked, not understanding what happened to him.
"You said that this small world is our world, the world that belongs to Sophia Memmingen and Franz Memmingen - so, before you take a step here, you are still Sophia Memmingen.
Root." Aigron looked at Her Royal Highness quietly with a serious expression.
"That's true." Princess Sophie nodded. "What's wrong...!"
As she was speaking, she clearly noticed that the young man was taking steps toward her, and she instinctively felt the danger.
"I want to hug Sophia Memmingen and Cinderella." Aigron replied calmly. "Even if it's only here."
Although his tone was calm, it was extremely determined.
Sophie suddenly panicked in front of his willpower.
Then she was shocked to find that the young man had taken steps.
"Hey!" she exclaimed in small surprise.
But in terms of skill, how could she possibly defeat a young man who has been studying swordsmanship since childhood?
In the midst of her little exclamation, he held her in his arms.
"What are you doing?!" she asked anxiously.
"Just hug me for a while. The magic given by the fairy won't disappear until twelve o'clock, right? At least it's still effective now." Aigron replied, "Don't worry, I will never do anything rough to you.
, I just want to give you a hug."
"You...you are really..." Her Royal Highness the Princess was ashamed and annoyed, but after a moment, she sighed softly, "Hey...it can only be for a short while, I really don't have time."
