After announcing the decree from Prince Rui's palace, the prince did not go anywhere else. He returned directly to the palace, locked himself in the study, and refused to see guests.
There was a huge stone pressing on my chest, blocking it there. I couldn't get up or get down, and I couldn't even breathe smoothly.
Is the beautiful figure he saw in Prince Rui's palace his hallucination or reality?
He has never believed in ghosts and gods, but today, he really doubted whether there really was some kind of magical power in the dark. Just like this, a miracle appeared in front of his eyes, and then disappeared without a trace.[
The gentle and rhythmic knocking on the door brought the prince back from his thoughts.
"Your Highness, it's me." A pleasant female voice sounded outside the door, it was the voice of the Crown Princess.
The prince heard her worry, calmed down, and then opened the door as if nothing had happened, and let the prince who personally brought hot tea and snacks walk in, "Yarou, why are you here?"
"Your Highness, I heard that you have been busy since you returned home. I am worried about your health, so I came here to take a look." The Crown Princess was respectful and gentle. Although her voice was very soft, her words were clear and her eyes were always lowered.
As long as she did not meet the prince's gaze, she was very precise about the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, and always restrained her behavior according to the standards of the future queen.
"I just want to read quietly for a while. My seventh brother recently returned victoriously from the Wei Kingdom. In the later period, the issue of peace and security for the people and the appointment of officials are a big problem. My father wanted to take this opportunity to train me, so I handed in all the questions.
We're here." Half hugging Crown Princess Yarou to his chest, the prince did not hide the tiredness in his voice, "Maybe I've ignored you a little, I'm sorry, don't think too much about it."
"I am just worried about your health. The prince is the crown prince of the country, so he must take good care of himself."
In the warm moment of harmony between husband and wife, the prince suddenly recalled the shadow that was imprinted in his heart. Who was she? The more he thought about it carefully, the more he felt that she must be real. She was in Prince Rui's palace, hidden in the palace.
In a certain corner.
I have to think of a way to go to the seventh brother's house and explore again. If I revisit the old place, maybe I can really see her again.
Thinking in his mind, a smile unconsciously appeared on the corners of his lips, and the hand that slowly touched Crown Princess Yarou's shoulder stopped.
