19. Enlightenment and decision

"Okay, I see, thank you."

Aiglon's seemingly bland reaction was very different in Chanel's eyes.

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

Maybe because of his long-term depression, he treats people a little indifferently, 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 that nobles often take people to vent, even if he is angry, he is not angry, and he is 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 the huge court, only Her Royal Highness the princess has always taken good care of him, and it would be strange if he was not grateful.

Now she wanted to be comforted, but she didn't know how to comfort him, and at the same time, Aglon had forbidden her to interfere in her own affairs, so she didn't dare to speak anymore even if she was in a hurry, so she could only stand silently beside the boy and comfort him in this way.

"Chanel, I want to ask you a question." After a long time, Aglon suddenly asked, "Is it okay for you to answer me as a girl?" ”

"Just ask." Chanel nodded immediately.

"I confess that I approached Her Royal Highness with some utilitarian purposes, and she was the most important reliance on my escape plan, and the price I had to pay in order to escape." "But, while being utilitarian, I like her very much, and I hate it for myself, and I feel sorry for her. After hearing about this from you, my guilt deepened...... Yes, if a person is treated so kindly by others and does not feel it at all, isn't it completely heartless? ”

Chanel didn't answer, waiting for Agron to finish, and in the silent room Agron seemed to be talking to himself.

"But even if I'm sorry, the plan goes on, and it must go on. But one can imagine that if I did escape, she would be blamed, and in this case, would she hate me very much? ”

"I guess I'm going to hate you a little." After thinking about it, Chanel replied in a whisper.

"Sure enough...... I'm ridiculous, and I'm still going to take chances. Aglon smiled bitterly, "If you are deceived, you will be angry, right?" Well, I'll accept the price of ......"

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

"What?"

"I have served by His Highness's side for several years, and I still know a little about His Highness. I think that when the time comes, it is not so much that she hates you for deceiving her, but that she will hate you for running away from her......" Chanel said what was in her heart, "Your Highness loves you so much, and will be very reluctant to let you go." After all, after leaving, I don't know what day it will be when I see you again, and I will definitely hate it when I think of it......

Chanel's words made Agron seem a little ignorant.

But it seems quite convincing.

"Do you think I deserve to be treated like this?" Aiglon 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. In addition to this, you are loved not only because of your status, but because you are not willing to settle for mediocrity...... You have the ambition to build a career one day, and this kind of ambition and arrogance will certainly be favored by His Highness, and everyone wants to admire heroes, right? ”

Her face flushed slightly as she said this.

"Your Highness hates mediocrity, no matter how noble a person is, if he is mediocre in intelligence and has no ambitions, how can he be looked down upon? You see, Her Royal Highness the Prince doesn't look down on her at all, she doesn't even care about His Majesty the Emperor! Women are sometimes quite conflicted, 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 them a little. ”

Aiglon looked at Chanel in surprise, he didn't expect Chanel to be able to say such insightful words.

And it seems to make sense.

He pondered Chanel's words, and finally got up from the couch.

"You're right, I'm not just alone...... I am still burdened with too many people's expectations, my name, my situation does not allow me to die of old age in this place as a mediocre pet, and His Highness definitely expects more from me than that. He looked out the window at the moonlight, and then said with a little excitement, "There is no doubt that if I run away, she will hate me, but at least I will have a chance to make up for this hatred later, and I will definitely make amends; But if I just stay here and live up to everyone's expectations, then what am I worth? It's just a ridiculous little reptile, so what's the reason to be loved? ”

He raised his hand and pointed to the lavish furniture and décor in the room, "The young eagle must grow up and spread its wings, if it is just captive in this ghost place, even if it is surrounded by gold, what is the point?" ”

"Your Highness, you're so right!" Chanel nodded heavily, "Your Royal Highness the Princess will be annoyed for a while, but she will be happy for you in the end." ”

"That's right." Aiglon paced briskly around the room, his eyes flashing and his ambition high. "yes, that's it."

Chanel's enlightenment made the guilt and confusion in his heart disappear just now, and he threw himself into his plan again.

He knew that Chanel's words had an element of her position.

Because she was afraid that she would give up, she would deliberately pick up the words that could best encourage her, but it didn't matter, everyone had their own purpose in life, and what she said was enough to inspire and make sense to herself.

"Chanel, I will find an opportunity to go to Vienna regularly with Her Royal Highness the Princess, to the theater, and I will find a way to take you there. I'm sure I'm not going anywhere, and you'll be much more relaxed, and you'll be responsible for helping me communicate with the outside world. He paused and explained the situation. But you must also be careful not to communicate with people......"

"Okay, I understand." Chanel immediately nodded in obedience, and then asked rhetorically, "What about ......that?" Will anyone connect with me? ”

"We can only resign ourselves to this fate, and if we don't, then we can only wait." Aiglon shook his head.

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

It is clear that Chanel did not know the location of the other Bonaparte supporters, nor did he have contact information, nor could he even actively seek out them, which is indeed a huge shortcoming. Until Bonaparte's supporters reach out, they can only wait quietly.

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

"Don't be discouraged, Xanele, I have another way than to wait completely passively." Aiglon said suddenly.

"Your Highness?" Chanel rekindled hope.

"I told the princess that I wanted to write a play, to try to be a playwright, and although it was just an excuse for her to agree to my request, I was not joking, I was going to write some plays seriously and pay the theater to perform them." Aglon looked back at Chanel. "And you're in charge of engaging with the actors."

"You...... Do you want to pass the time with this hobby? Chanel asked, somewhat surprised.

"No, of course not." Aiglon smiled and shook his head, "I'm going to mix some secrets of the Bonaparte family in the script, things that only the family knows, in a city like Vienna, information spreads very quickly, and there is no shortage of audiences in the theater, and with one performance after another, someone will eventually find the theater that came from the source...... And then we have hope. ”

"Is that so?!" Chanel was first surprised, then ecstatic. "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? ”

The question hit the nail on the head, almost making Aglon unable to hold his expression.

Can't you tell her that this is what she saw in the various biographies and historians of later generations, right?

"I read it from some of my father's letters and manuscripts that I have kept around." After a moment, he replied casually.

The answer was a bit far-fetched, but Chanel was quick to believe it.

On the one hand, she had to believe, and on the other hand, she had seen with her own eyes that Aiglon had taken out such a valuable royal pocket watch from his desk and given it to herself—if even such a valuable thing could be kept secretly, then it would be very easy to leave some letters and manuscripts, right?

But when will it succeed? What if it's been overlooked and missed? Chanel asked with some concern.

"It's up to my supporters' brains and luck, and sometimes when we're done with everything we can do, we're left to our fate and wait for God to grant us a good fortune." Aglon shrugged his shoulders, "Xanael, there is no basis for this, but I firmly believe that I will be favored by God, and if I don't have a little luck, I can't be me." And I have to succeed, I'm nothing but success! ”

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

He turned his back to the window, his eyes blazing at himself, the moonlight seemed to shed a layer of brilliance on him, and his words seemed to be unquestionable at this moment.

Yes, this is the person I need to be loyal to, and this is the person who deserves to go to the fire!

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

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

Yes, the plan has already begun, so there is no reason to hesitate or regret it. Now that the dice have been dropped, it's up to God to decide who is right and who is wrong.

I'm going to win. Only if you win, can you make up for everything you have lost; Only if you win, what you do is reasonable and reasonable; Only when you win can you have a chance not to live up to the expectations placed on others.

So, go for it and win. The boy clenched his fists.
