58, Directive
After seeing off his guardian, Agron finally had time to rest, and by the time he woke up again, it was already the next morning, and he had slept for more than ten hours.
Because he rested enough, he woke up refreshed and swept away his previous fatigue.
He spent the day at his usual pace, and when dusk fell, Chanel brought him an invitation from Princess Sophie, and also asked him to change into the clothes of a common citizen.
As soon as he heard this, Agron understood what was going on, so of course he did not slack off, and he quickly took care of himself again, and then went to meet Her Highness the Princess.
After a few days of not seeing her, Princess Sophie looked a little haggard, and Aglon noticed.
"Your Highness, good evening." He first said hello, then worriedly again, "You don't seem to be in good spirits?" β
"Nothing, Aiglon, welcome back." Princess Sophie shook her head, then smiled slightly, "I'll take you to Vienna tonight, it's time to see how they're going." β
"It's okay if it's a day or two late, why don't you take a break?" Aiglon proposed.
"Nope! Just today. Princess Sophie flatly rejected his offer, "This is a matter of the reputation of the two Memmingen siblings, and we must not slack off." β
"Okay." Now that His Highness has said this, Aglon certainly can't say anything more, "Thank you. β
The two men boarded the carriage that had been prepared together and set out on the journey to the theater again.
Along the way, Aigron could clearly feel that Sophie was not in her mind, as if she had a lot on her mind, but she refused to reveal it, just chatted with each other, and Princess Sophie did not ask for half a word about his experience of following His Majesty in the countryside for a few days, perhaps deliberately avoiding the fact that she was unwilling to face.
As for why His Highness was unhappy, Aiglon also had a vague answer in his heart, and because he guessed it, he didn't dare to ask again, so the two of them deliberately avoided talking about it.
The carriage made its way through the streets of the city, and finally reached the corner of the Ruby Theater under the cover of night.
The two of them stepped out of the carriage and walked towards the theater under the tail of the Guardian.
Because it was already autumn, the wind was a little cool at night, and Aiglon deliberately stood on the side of the wind, and then reached out diligently.
Sophie naturally took his hand, and the two of them walked into the theater as if no one was around.
As generous VIP customers, the two of them now of course enjoy a different treatment, as soon as they enter, they will be greeted by someone who will lead them to the box they have booked.
Then, the manager of the theater soon arrived.
"Good evening, sir." Sophie greeted him coldly, "I want to ask, what's going on with the script?" β
"Miss Memmingen! You're finally here, and I'm afraid you've forgotten about it. As soon as they met, he complained helplessly, "As soon as you leave, you are happy and relaxed, but we are in trouble." β
"We also have our things to do." Sophie replied, "Just tell me how it's going." β
"You're already too us, miss." The manager frowned, and then complained, "Your young master insists on maintaining his original flavor and does not allow us to adapt, so when we encounter problems, we don't dare to mess around ourselves, but...... When I wanted to ask, I couldn't find you! In this case, the progress will definitely not be fast, can you think of a solution? β
This question surprised both Sophie and Aglon.
But when you think about it, it's true that this is an unavoidable problem.
What to do? The two men looked at each other.
The manager's intention was obviously to leave a mailing address for the two of them, so that they could communicate at any time when there was a problem, but this was impossible for the two of them, and they couldn't leave the address of the palace.
"I understand the desire of the two to keep their residence secret, rich people have their own quirks, and everyone can bear it for the sake of money......," the manager continued, "but can you think of a way to keep us informed of their intentions?" β
"Well, I'll leave you an address later, and then you can send the letter to that place." Sophie thought for a moment, then replied.
"Okay, then I'll be fine, miss." The manager breathed a sigh of relief,
"Okay, let's leave this issue aside for the time being, how is the progress of the script?" Princess Sophie changed the subject, "You can't have done nothing, can you?" β
"Of course not." The manager hurriedly shook his head, "Actually, I'm already arranging for someone to rehearse." But as you know, we have a limited stage and a limited number of people, so we can only focus on the existing repertoire......"
The manager's implication was that he could only arrange for unknown young actors to cope with this errand.
"You're thinking too beautiful, aren't you?" Sophie became angry when she heard this, "You will take risks when you stage any new drama, and this time I bear all the costs, which means that the risks are all on me, when have you ever encountered such a good thing?" As a result, do you use this to perfunctory us? β
"Miss, don't be angry." "As you can see, we don't have the best theater here, so we have to be cautious and put on shows that have proven to be sought after elsewhere...... This minimizes the risk. Now several of our pillar actors have their own performance tasks, and the audience will not easily accept substitutions...... You can help us offset the costs, but there's no guarantee of profit, and we really can't afford them to risk a show that they don't know how to make a profit. β
Sophie tried to say more, but was stopped by Agron.
"I don't mind if they become famous actors, I just need them to perform seriously and hard." He looked at the manager gently, "The fact that you're willing to help me get to the show is already very satisfying for me, sir." β
Seeing that the young man was so good at talking, the manager was also relieved, "Young master, thank you for your magnanimity. Don't worry, these little actors are working very hard, after all, there are too few opportunities left for them, and I will watch it for you. β
"When is the rehearsal?" Aiglon asked directly.
"We usually rehearse at noon." The manager replied. "If you have time, you can come and have a look, I believe that if you come to guide in person, the effect will definitely be much better, at least it will be closer to your heart."
The two men looked at each other again.
The few times they went out were at night, and Aglon wasn't sure if Sophie would bring her over during the day.
Sophie nodded slightly, indicating that she could accept the offer.
"So be it." Aiglon immediately agreed, "Goodbye, sir. β
"You're so talkative, Aiglon." After he left, Sophie couldn't help but complain to Agron. "People like you will definitely lose nothing when doing business."
Aiglon just smiled.
The script itself is just a prop for him, and he doesn't care who plays it.
"As long as you can realize your dreams, why bother with so many details? It's just a matter of affecting the mood in vain. He shrugged his shoulders in a dashing manner.
"That's right, of course you don't have to care about these ......" Sophie pretended to be angry and frowned, then reached out and pinched his face, "Anyway, you spent my money, what's so distressed!" β
As soon as she finished speaking, she couldn't help but laugh herself.
"Okay, as long as you're happy."
With her laughter, it seemed that the haze between the two of them just now also dissipated.
"Do you feel sorry for Teresa? I heard that she changed her mind temporarily, and told His Majesty that she would reconsider. After a few moments, she asked suddenly.
Aiglon was not surprised that Sophie was so well-informedβif nothing else, Her Majesty was her own sister.
"It's not that I'm sorry, but I'm very surprised, even a little touched......," Aglon shook his head, "because she's taking on the trouble for me." β
"What do you mean?" Sophie was puzzled.
Aiglon told Sophie what had happened that day.
Sophie listened quietly and then asked.
"In other words, you took the initiative to tell her to think about it later, right?"
"That's right." Aiglon nodded, "Unexpectedly, she took the initiative to take responsibility...... In that sense, I am very grateful to her. β
"Well, since things are already like this, there's no point in thinking about it so much." Sophie shook her head and motioned to end the conversation, "Since we're here in the name of the Memmingen siblings, let's leave things going on over there. β
Didn't you ask for it yourself...... Aiglon couldn't help but complain in his heart.
However, he could also see that Her Royal Highness the Princess was very happy at the moment, and even the corners of her eyes were full of smiles.
Obviously, the news that Aiglon said greatly changed her mood.
"Oops, I forgot one thing to do." Her Royal Highness suddenly seemed to remember something, opened the door and walked out of the box, and then beckoned in the corridor to Captain Forrestie, who was guarding there.
The captain walked into the box, confused. "Your Highness, do you have any orders?"
"Captain, I hope you'll come to the city to help me with something if you have time recently." Princess Sophie said calmly.
"What's the matter?" The captain asked again.
"You can open a suite in a hotel near this theater for a year. I'll bear the cost, and you can just quote the number to me when the time comes. β
The captain's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at the two Highnesses in front of him, and his expression at that moment became extremely shocked and strange.
"Your Highness...... Your Highness......" His tone was a little dry, as if he didn't know what he was talking about, "You...... Why do you ask for this? β
"We need to leave a mailing address." Princess Sophie replied with a complacent look, "Aigron wants to stage his play here, and that makes it necessary for him to have a place to communicate with the theater at all times." Of course, it is impossible for us to leave the address of the palace, so I think this is the only way to do it - you can rent a suite, go there regularly, and bring us the letters from the theater back to the palace, can you? β
"Uh...... Originally...... I see. Captain Forrestie was stunned for a moment, and finally managed to control his demeanor.
Then he looked at Aiglon.
"Your Highness...... You...... What do you think? β
"That's it, Captain." Aiglon nodded, "I hope you can do us a favor...... Think of it as a dream come true for me. β
