After Princess Maria left, both the host Augusta and the guest Teresa secretly breathed a sigh of relief. They returned to their previous chatting and laughing state, and tacitly avoided the topics just now. Waste your breath on irrelevant anecdotes.
When the time reached late at night, according to etiquette, Teresa felt that she could interrupt the conversation, so she acted like she was tired and asked for a rest.
Princess Augusta was also waiting for the guests to do this, so she immediately said good night and asked the servant to take the Agrons to the bedroom that had been arranged.
After closing the door, the original smile on Theresa's face immediately disappeared, and her face was tense and she didn't know what she was thinking.
And Aigron also knew that his wife was in a bad mood at the moment, so he didn't want to get into trouble, so he silently cleaned up and prepared to go to bed.
However, he couldn't escape after all.
"Your Highness—" Theresa stopped him just after he changed into his pajamas, "My suspicion just now came true. Princess Maria obviously had some affection for you before, and maybe Her Highness Sophie even wanted to match you up. …How do you feel after knowing this?”
Aiglon shrugged and did not answer.
"Do you feel happy?" Teresa asked reluctantly.
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Aigron could only reply, "Teresa, you can't blame me for a mistake I didn't make. I didn't know anything about it. I didn't hear about it until I came to Bavaria." What can I do about this? What responsibility can I bear? I don’t think I need to apologize or explain!
As for you asking me how I feel - I don't feel anything. Now that we are married and I have sworn at the wedding, my wife will always be you and only you. It's that simple. "
After Aigron's answer, Teresa fell silent for a moment.
She has always been reserved, and she especially doesn't like to lose her temper and express her anger at others. Although she is very unhappy now, she really can't do it if she insists on losing her temper at her husband unreasonably. She knows that what his husband said is right.
She was silent for a moment, and then sighed, "Actually, I don't blame you. I just think that Your Highness Sophie is too busy with you..."
The past events that she wished she could forget were still lingering around her like ghosts, which was really helpless.
What made her most uncomfortable was that she knew deep down in her heart that if Louisa had not proposed the marriage and His Majesty the Emperor had not appointed the marriage, Sophie's wish might have come true, because His Highness obviously would not refuse Sophie. request.
If that were the case, she wouldn't even have a chance to meet His Highness.
God bless, fortunately, everything happened according to her own wishes... Because of this, Teresa firmly believed that she and His Highness were a match made in heaven, a combination determined by fate. No matter how many people tried to challenge them, they would never succeed.
Until now, she still didn't know the truth about the entanglement between Agron and Agnes. In her opinion, it was the most normal thing for those women to be obsessed with His Highness - because wasn't she herself fascinated?
So she felt a little unspeakable pride, but also felt doubly troubled.
Of course, her views on those people were slightly different - if she still had some admiration for Agnes, then she only had disgust for Princess Maria.
From the moment they met, this woman smiled but taunted her mercilessly, and even exposed her most unbearable scars in person. How mean and hateful! Even now, Teresa still gets very angry when she thinks about it.
She secretly vowed that if Maria stayed away from her in the future, it would be fine. If she still dared to cause trouble, she would make her suffer a painful price and let her cry bitterly to repent for today's offense against her.
Of course, she buried these thoughts in her heart and did not express them.
On the surface, she looked like she had calmed down. She breathed a long sigh of relief, then washed herself and put on her pajamas. Then the couple lay half-lying side by side on the back of the bed.
Because the two of them were now guests at someone else's house, and they had quarreled with someone just now, they were not in the mood to "go further" and just leaned together like this, enjoying the tenderness before going to bed.
Ordinary people can be grateful to each other for a hundred days in one night, not to mention the two of them who have gone through many storms and supported each other in the face of adversity. In a moment of tenderness, the anger that they had accumulated today gradually disappeared.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry... I lost my temper a little." Teresa smiled and looked at her husband, "Well, everything is over now. We don't have to worry about irrelevant people and let her be angry. Go~”
Then, she kissed her husband on the cheek to resolve the quarrel in a coquettish way.
Of course Aiglon was happy to cooperate with her, so he held her in his arms. "It's not your fault, Teresa, you have been generous enough. I was secretly cheering for you just now."
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed his wife, and the two of them tacitly put the turmoil behind them in a tender moment.
After kissing for a while, Teresa blushed slightly and then narrowed her eyes.
"Your Highness, there is something I don't know if you have noticed."
For a moment, Aigron thought Theresa was still angry, but looking at her comfortable face at the moment, it didn't seem like it.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" he asked carefully.
"You really didn't notice..." Teresa rolled her eyes at him, but she wasn't really angry. She said the answer herself, "It seems that I haven't been here for a long time..."
For a moment, Aigron still couldn't catch Theresa's train of thought, and he almost blurted out what was missing.
However, he finally reacted.
Then, he opened his mouth slightly and looked at Teresa with a strange expression.
"Why are you acting like this!?"
Teresa didn't expect her husband to behave like this at all, so she complained softly.
Then, she explained in a low voice, "I used to be quite punctual, but I haven't come since last month. I was afraid that I guessed wrong, so I didn't say anything, but now it seems that it is almost true." .”
"Sorry... Teresa." Aigron seemed to be choked, coughing slightly before calming down, "I'm just too surprised, and not only surprised, but also an unreal feeling, I really didn’t think about it, no, actually I thought about it but I still don’t feel comfortable with it… Hey, what on earth am I talking about?”
"Okay, stop talking incoherently, I understand what you mean." Teresa glared at him again, and then stretched out her hand to block his mouth, lest her husband continue to talk nonsense and spoil her mood, "I actually have something. As for the feeling you described...Am I really about to become a mother? It always feels a bit unreal."
Then, with a smile on her face, she gently stroked her belly, which actually had no abnormalities, "However, this is not surprising. We have been doing this and that for several months, and the naughty little guy is a little bit... It’s too late.”
Aigron listened quietly, not knowing what to say.
"Teresa, are we going to become parents?" After a while, Aigron cleared his thoughts and asked.
He asked knowingly, he just wanted to hear a definite answer.
"Yes, Aigron, God willing, we may really become parents!" Teresa lay in her husband's arms, and then replied cheerfully.
Although they have been married for half a year, they are only seventeen years old now. Even though their childhood experiences and education have made their characters introverted and reserved, they still have the spirit of teenagers and girls after all.
Subconsciously, they have more or less not gotten rid of their status as children - not to mention, at their current age, they can still be considered minors in the 21st century.
Therefore, even if they know in their hearts that "if you keep doing this and that, you will have children," they still find it hard to believe this fact.
However, no matter how young they are, the obligations they bear are still the same heavy.
Since leaving Greece, every elder Aigron has seen has been telling him that he must spread the branches and leaves of this family and continue the direct lineage of the Bonaparte family forever.
And he and Teresa also understood their obligations, allowing their lineage to forever control everything in the family and the throne of the empire as the orthodox descendants of Emperor Napoleon - this is what he deserved.
After his wedding, he and his wife were inseparable. They were not only enjoying the fun of clouds and rain, but also fulfilling this sacred mission.
Now, the hard work has finally yielded "fruits", and Aigron feels very happy.
He lowered his head and looked at his smiling wife, feeling grateful again in his heart.
Teresa followed him unwaveringly, and now she will become the mother of her child. Isn't this a fateful arrangement?
Well, only the children born between the two of us are qualified to inherit everything from me - and I have to work twice as hard to build a family business in order to leave more things to my future children.
Yes, children, because he and Theresa would definitely not have just one child in the future - his grandmother, everyone around them, even Theresa herself, expected them to have more children, leaving only Under his direct lineage, a single seedling can be passed down vigorously.
He will do it.
"After it is confirmed that it is true, I will write to my grandmother. She will definitely smile with joy." Aigron hugged his wife tightly, and then said with a smile, "Well... not only my grandmother, your father The mother should also receive a letter announcing the good news, and they will also bless us and the child."
"Yeah!" Teresa just smiled and nodded.
"Everyone says that after having a child, the wife's attention will shift to the child." Agron joked, "Teresa, my dear, you won't ignore me because of the child, right? What if? That would make me sad.”
"Of course I won't, Your Highness." Theresa buried her head in her husband's arms, and then said sullenly, "Yes, I have always wanted to be a mother and build a family as happy as my parents. Family. But... more important to me than being a mother is being a wife to the person you love - I will love our children very, very much, but that's because they are mine and yours , they follow our love, are born because of our love, and witness our happiness, but in my heart... the most important thing is always you. You may not believe it, but time will prove everything."
Aigron did not expect that his joke would lead to such a passionate confession. The emotion contained in it reminded Aiglon of Teresa's affectionate confessions when they were on the island of Monte Cristo.
The past events are still vivid in her mind, and the girl's expression and words are as intense and focused as they were then. He suddenly recalled everything, even her tone and demeanor at that time.
"Poseidon, I swear to you... I will always be by his side. We will share everything about us, whether it is glorious or dirty... Please witness that no matter what happens, we will always be together."
Every girl will say a lot of similar love words when she is in love, but she takes it more seriously than anyone else, and she really practices it with all her enthusiasm, regardless of everything.
In comparison, I...well, I really feel ashamed of myself.
Even though he had always been as ruthless as he was, he couldn't stand it now.
"Thank you, Teresa," Agron hissed, almost crying, "I'm sorry you have so many things."
"That's natural." Teresa smiled softly, "But what can I do? I can't bear to blame you. Who makes me happy to be bullied by you... Okay, be happy, my dear, this It’s obviously great news, right?”
After saying that, she struggled to get up from Aigron's arms, and then kissed her husband again.
The two kissed passionately, sharing their love and warmth with each other, until finally they were exhausted, and then they embraced and fell asleep.
The next morning, Agron and Theresa got up and had breakfast with Princess Augusta, and then he said goodbye to his wife.
The lady was not surprised by this, so she said goodbye to the couple cheerfully.
"Your Majesty the King of Rome," Princess Augusta solemnly said to Aigron before leaving, "you are the glorious successor, and because you are too young to witness the true face of the empire-but I am different from you , I witnessed with my own eyes all the violence, plunder and massacre that came like a flood, and even I was half a victim. Even if I later married Prince Eugene, I still could not completely let go... You are here I have no way to interfere with the business that is going on, and I wish you success, but I am even more willing to see that you can show another face of Bonaparte in front of the world."
"This is what I try to do." Aigron replied with a smile.
"I hope so." Princess Augusta nodded, and then she sighed, "If he is still alive, he will definitely give you some advice. It's a pity that this is all I can do. ”
"You have done enough, and I will always thank you, Madam." Aigron kissed the back of Madam's hand diligently, and then waved goodbye.
In this way, Aigron quietly left Leuchtenburg Palace with the gift he received from Mrs. Augusta.
