As the sun illuminated the room more and more brightly, Aigron, who was lying on the bed, finally opened his eyes and was freed from sleep.
In recent times, he had been sleeping on a cot in the tent, and now he was finally able to sleep under the protection of the stone walls and ceiling, and he felt extremely comfortable.
And this time, he didn't spend the long night alone - his fiancée Theresa was lying quietly in his arms at the moment, still sleeping with her eyes closed.
Aiglon looked at her sleeping face carefully. Her expression was calm with a slight smile, as if she was glad that she had finally found inner peace again. Her chest was also rising and falling slightly, and she was breathing rhythmically, just like for the first time. So elegant and quiet when we met.
However, because she was only wearing underwear at the moment, and she was lying on her side hugging him while sleeping, she was inevitably exposed to a large area of skin, which was dazzlingly white under the morning light, making the young man's heart flutter.
This infatuated girl has already decided that she and her fiancé will be together for a lifetime, so she has taken off all guard against him. Except for the final bottom line that she dare not break through due to various scruples, she is not shy about showing it to the young man. With everything about themselves, it can be said that they are not much different from real newlyweds.
For Teresa, this is of course sweet happiness, but for Agron, it is bittersweet. On the one hand, he does feel very comfortable and happy being next to Teresa, but on the other hand, he You must always remind yourself not to be seduced by girls and break through the bottom line in a moment of confusion.
Looking at Teresa's half-exposed body, Agron forced himself to regain his senses before he was overwhelmed by his animal nature.
Forget it, just be patient and patient... You can't cause a big mess just because you can't control yourself for a moment. He regretfully restrained himself from another impulse.
You bad girl, you must have done this on purpose! Just wait, I will give you a hard time when the time comes... The young man thought bitterly in his heart.
As if sensing the helplessness and curse in the young man's heart, Teresa woke up at this moment.
She opened her eyes slightly, and then her long eyelashes trembled up and down. Finally, her eyes focused on the face of the young man who was only a few centimeters away from her.
"Your Highness, good morning..." A reassuring smile immediately broke out on her face, and she greeted him.
Such a gentle call made the little resentment in Aigron's heart about "can he see it but not eat it" suddenly disappear?
"Good morning, Theresa." He smiled and greeted Theresa, and then he struggled to let go of Theresa's arms. "It's time to get up."
Because they reunited after a long absence, the two of them chatted until late at night before falling asleep together, and said countless affectionate words to each other.
After dawn, Chanel wisely did not come to disturb them, so they slept until they woke up naturally.
He didn't expect Theresa to still hold him stubbornly, as if unwilling to let go. "Your Highness... can we hug you like this for a while longer? After all... only then can the two of us be alone."
"Okay." Since she said so, Aigron agreed without thinking.
He could also understand Teresa's mood - after a long separation, she really wanted to be with her beloved and make up for the lost time; and with their identities and current environment, if they got up and devoted themselves to daily life , then there must be people around you, and you won’t be able to enjoy alone time.
So, at Teresa's request, Agron continued to embrace her and experience the tenderness with his fiancée.
With the arrival of victory, the tense war finally came to an end, and Aiglon thought he could relax temporarily.
Teresa narrowed her eyes slightly and hugged him tightly, enjoying this hard-won sweet time.
"Your Highness... Metternich finally came to us. He promised to ask His Majesty to approve our marriage and send his blessing, so the last obstacle between us disappeared..."
For Teresa, when she forced her parents to agree to her request, she had already made psychological preparations to break with the family, but after all, she was deeply proud of her Habsburg family and had great respect for her family and the empire. With deep feelings, it would be an unexpected joy for her if she could get His Majesty the Emperor's blessing.
Moreover, what she fears most in her heart is that His Majesty the Emperor will be angry with her parents because of her deviant behavior. After all, His Majesty and her father have always had a bad relationship.
And if His Majesty the Emperor also approves her actions, then she will no longer cause trouble to her parents, which can be regarded as the last comfort for her as an unfilial daughter.
"Thank you, your majesty, my grandfather!" Aigron replied half seriously and half mockingly, "Then how does he plan to make this marriage end successfully without hurting anyone's face?"
"Your Majesty and Metternich believe that I am still in Austria and am still your fiancée - since this engagement has not been officially canceled and you have not announced it, then it is still valid." Teresa replied in a low voice. , "I am waiting for you to wait for the war to subside and make achievements, and then come over from the country to marry you under the escort of my mother. Is there any problem with this?"
Aigron understood.
In theory, Teresa is still "secluded" in her own home, and she has nothing to do with everything here.
Although many people already know that this is not true, as long as the Austrian official insists on this statement and Princess Theresa and herself do not refute it, then she will still be in Austria - and of course Aigron and Theresa will not go refute.
So in theory, Teresa was escorted by her mother to Greece to marry herself a few months later.
If the "facts" officially reported become a fact recognized by everyone, then it seems that no one will really lose their reputation... Even if there are some noises, they are just rumors with ulterior motives to slander the princess. Both the empire and itself Will not admit it.
Politics is indeed the art of telling lies...
Even though he was the beneficiary, Aigron couldn't help but feel dumbfounded.
"So, in this world, the boldest will always win." He couldn't help but sigh next, "Don't be afraid if you poke someone in the face, as long as you poke someone in the face big enough, someone will naturally try their best to help you make things right... "
"You have the nerve to say that!" Upon hearing this, Teresa suddenly became angry. "If you didn't go through so many troubles, why would I suffer so much? Why do everyone have such a headache? You... you almost Our engagement is over!"
As soon as she said this, she felt resentful again and couldn't help but clenched her fists and beat Aigron's chest, "Just run away. Why did you leave such a heartless letter? If I hadn't made a decisive decision to stop my father from sending him to the hospital." Once the letter is made public, there will be no room for change in all this!"
The more she spoke, the more frightened she became, and therefore the angrier she became. She couldn't help but glare at the young man again, "I finally smoothed over this terrible storm, and you still have the nerve to laugh at me!"
Aigron himself knew that what he did was too unethical, so he could only laugh and let the girl beat him to vent her anger - it didn't hurt anyway.
"Actually, I wrote that letter for your sake..."
"Who allowed you to abandon me in the name of thinking about me!" Teresa interrupted him angrily.
Aigron didn't dare to say anything anymore and could only let her vent.
"Forget it, since the result is good, there is no need to dwell on what happened before." Fortunately, Teresa knew that she had gone too far, so she also slowed down her tone, "After all, you became a little bit more My conscience has not publicly spoken about the engagement again, which gives me a little leeway, otherwise... it would be really difficult."
Aigron secretly said that he was lucky.
After escaping and confirming his safety, he sent letters to German and French newspapers, making a public statement claiming that he had gained freedom of movement and had no complaints against his grandfather and the Austrian Empire.
He originally wanted to raise the issue of the engagement, but because he had never seen Archduke Karl make any statement about it, he was afraid that Archduke Karl had other plans. In order to avoid offending this prestigious royal prince, he did not. Say nothing more about this issue.
In his opinion, since Archduke Karl already has his own handwritten letter and statement, he can publish it whenever he wants, and there is no need for him to disrupt his pace by adding extraneous details.
To put it simply, it was not for Theresa that he considered it, but for Archduke Karl's consideration, which was why he did not publicly announce the termination of the engagement.
What I didn't expect was that it wasn't that the Grand Duke didn't want to publish it, but that Teresa snatched it away and burned it immediately...
He is not a man of genius who has no plans at all. He was able to achieve such a result purely by accident. It was Teresa who relied on her stubbornness and persistence to make Archduke Karl reluctantly acquiesce to his daughter's willfulness, making this engagement impossible. Surprisingly, this was something he had never dreamed of before.
If Teresa had hesitated for a moment, or been a little less courageous, everything might have turned out completely different.
Lucky, really lucky.
But in terms of results, this is quite satisfactory.
Of course, Teresa didn't know what Agron was thinking. She was already immersed in the memories of the thrilling past events.
"Do you still remember that Christmas when you came to visit our house?" She said softly, "At that time, my mother's consideration was to put the wedding in June. In other words, if there were no unexpected changes, we would have been married several times. It’s been months.”
"If that's the case, I'm afraid our child is already being conceived - I won't let our good time go to waste." Aigron replied with a smile, his tone almost teasing.
Teresa's face turned crimson instantly. It was obvious that at such a young age, she had not yet adapted to this kind of "husband and wife" topic.
But she didn't want to scold the shameless young man, because wasn't this what she secretly expected?
Therefore, she could only give the young man a weak look, and then whispered angrily and shyly. "Your Highness, please wait a little longer... I know that this kind of suffering is not easy for you, but... this is the best way for us."
"It's okay, Teresa, I can bear it." Aigron reached out and patted her cheek, "And I am willing to wait, just like tasting fine wine, concentrating my beautiful expectations in this waiting until that moment To taste our exclusive sweetness together again...I believe this will be the happiest moment in my life!"
Teresa was extremely happy to hear this, but she didn't know how to answer such a topic, and she was unwilling to remain silent and let His Highness's sweet words fail.
"I will try my best..." She thought for a moment and then boldly answered. "Please feel free to... taste it when the time comes!"
This still seems inappropriate? Not suitable for the status of a princess? Maybe, but no matter, there is no one else here to ruin the scenery.
Besides, I have already done so many things to bring shame to my family, why do I need to pay attention to such small things anymore...
Because of this conversation, the two people's hearts were filled with sweetness, and they couldn't help but kiss each other again.
At this time, the shadow of the sun was moving ruthlessly indoors, reminding them of the passage of time.
After a long time, the two of them reluctantly ended their kiss.
Aigron looked at Theresa and was shaken for a moment.
Both of them are still in their teens. If they get married recently, they will be an out-and-out teenage couple. And from this era, it is shocking for a king to divorce - that is to say, once they get married, they will I'm going to live with her for the rest of my life.
There is no doubt that he knows that his marriage is a big event, both publicly and privately, and will affect the entire family - but if this is what life after marriage is like, then he has no resistance.
Teresa was indeed an acceptable partner for him. Whether it was her life experience, her character, or even her decisive determination and her full love for him, he could not find anything wrong with her.
If there was anything wrong, it was on his own side... When he thought of this, he didn't dare to think about it any more.
"Okay, Teresa, we have to get up anyway." He suggested with a smile, "There are still many things waiting for us."
"Yeah." Teresa blushed and nodded.
So Aigron called Chanel and asked her to help the two of them change their clothes. Aigron, who had slept a full night and had a passionate conversation with Teresa in the morning, was already full of energy and full of energy. Endless energy.
"Has breakfast been arranged?" he asked Chanel.
"It's arranged." Chanel replied immediately.
"Does His Highness have any plans for today?" Theresa interrupted at this time.
"Your Majesty will inspect the troops during the day and host a celebration banquet in the evening, inviting the heroes to attend." Chanel replied quickly.
"So...is Miss Agnes here?" Teresa suddenly asked again. "I haven't seen her for a long time. I miss her very much."
