After nearly a year as acting king, Yalita is now more mature, poised and wise. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The bright sunlight shone through the glass window on her desk, illuminating the secret letter on her desk, but not her face.
Yalita sat quietly in her chair and looked at the secret letter on the table for half an hour.
She knew what might be in this secret letter from Greenwater, but she didn't have the courage to open it and read it.
Eventually, Yalita knew that she would have to face it sooner or later, so she picked up the secret letter, opened it and read it.
Yarita's expression was calm, not even the slightest frown or eye open.
Putting down the secret letter, Yalita reached out to take the black tea next to the table to moisten her throat, only to find that her hands were shaking so much that she could barely hold the small cup of black tea.
"Your Royal Highness, Eldest Princess, your heart is upset. Shi'an emerged from the shadows behind Yalita, her brow tingling with apprehension.
Yalita didn't try to pick up the black tea again, and her tone was so calm that it was abnormal, "It's confirmed, Casio, he's dead!"
The moment she heard this, Shi An's beautiful eyes trembled, and her whole body trembled even more imperceptibly.
She didn't speak, just stood quietly beside Yalita.
In fact, Yalita felt that she should be happy at this time, but she really couldn't be happy, and her heart was filled with sadness like never before.
Although after reporting the situation of the Heavenly Shield Fortress from Shi'an, she also fantasized about what she should be feeling if Casio was really gone.
But when this moment really came, she realized that the sadness she had never considered was filling her chest.
She has many reasons to want Casio to disappear from this world, but there is one reason, which is not comparable to all the reasons.
Casio, her biological brother and one of her few remaining relatives!
After a moment of silence, Yarita got up and walked outside, deeming it necessary for her mother to report Casio's situation.
Through the corridors, Yalita, accompanied by the guards, came to a small and quiet garden.
At this time, in the small garden, there was a middle-aged woman in simple clothes, squatting on the ground, quietly pruning the flowers.
Yalita didn't come forward to disturb, and stood quietly to the side, imagining how she could tell her mother the bad news.
Ever since the tragic death of her father, Grand Duke Quesma, in the war, her mother has put aside all her business and retreated into the background, concentrating on the flowers and plants.
Yalita stood for a long time, until her mother had tinkered with the flowers of the little garden, which was half too late, and then came to the little table.
"Sit down. "Yarita's mother is three points similar to Yarita, full of an intellectual and elegant temperament.
Yalita sat across from her mother, but didn't say anything, a little nervous.
Yarita's mother sat quietly, staring at Yarita's little uneasiness, and suddenly took the initiative to ask, "Is it about Casio?"
Yalita was silent for a moment, then nodded.
This time, it's a more dead and oppressive silence!
Yalita knew that although her mother didn't bother with the affairs of the Principality, she still had her own channels and was able to learn about the outside world.
"Muriel will be very sad. Yarita's mother said suddenly.
"Yes. ”
"The matter between your sister and brother should have a result. ”
Yalita looked up at her mother in amazement, she knew that behind her mother was actually the great nobles of the Geraka Empire, and she was also her mother's maiden family.
Now that her mother had said this, it was clear that the two of them were no longer allowed to mess around because of Casio's affairs.
Yes, the things that are extremely important to Yalita and Muriel, in the eyes of their mothers, are actually nothing more than conflicts between children, nonsense!
"Yes. In the end, there were only two words for Yarita to reply.
After sitting for a while, Yalita saw that her mother had no instructions, so she got up and left.
Yalita had barely taken two steps before her mother suddenly spoke again: "Greenwater is always the last place your brother stays, and it is also a part of the principality, it's time for your brother to go home!"
Yalita knew that her mother had spoken and allowed her to use thunder to reclaim Greenwater.
"Yes. With these two words one last time, Yalita restored her mother.
After Yalita left, her mother did not leave the small garden, but still sat on her chair in a daze, looking at the bright sky, as if she had seen Casio running and playing in the palace garden.
Virginia City, now home to Muriel's stronghold.
"Get out!" the bright moon was in the sky, but from a palace, an angry roar came out, breaking the silence of this moonlit night.
The guard in charge of delivering the secret report ran out of the palace in a rather embarrassed manner, but met a beautiful woman with an elegant temperament and generous temperament.
"Princess, His Royal Highness the Prince, he ......"
The beautiful woman shook her head, stopped the guard, and walked softly to herself inside the palace.
As soon as he entered the palace, he saw a young man dressed gorgeously and with a five-point resemblance to Casio, sitting on the steps of the hall, staring at the floor in a daze.
"Muriel, what's wrong with you?" the princess slowly leaned over to Muriel's side and sat down.
"My brother, dead!" said Muriel, his face filled with grief, as if he had lost the most precious thing in the world.
The princess reached out and gently patted Muriel's back, and said softly, "Can you tell me about him?"
Muriel was silent for a moment before he said, "Casio is very smart, the smartest of all our brothers and sisters, and the most loved by our father and mother. Many people think that he is an unlearned and unskilled gentleman, but he is not. He just followed his own heart, did what he wanted, and never cared about the consequences. ”
"You love him too, don't you?" said the princess, looking at Muriel, with a smile.
Muriel smiled bitterly, "Yes, I like Casio's state of living according to his heart. Therefore, at some point, I love him more than my father and mother. He also kept me an idolatrous. ”
"When I found out how he did in Greenwater, I was really happy. This proves that my brother is not the kind of gentleman that everyone knows. ”
"From then on, I thought that when I had defeated Yarita once and for all and became the king of Dolan, I would go to Greenwater again and have a good drink with him. ”
"At that time, I will take him back to the royal capital, I will give him whatever position he wants, and let him do whatever he wants. ”
"But why didn't he wait for me and leave first? He's only twenty years old, his life has just begun, and the future is still waiting for him!"
When Muriel said this, he couldn't help but cry bitterly.
This was the first time since the princess had known Muriel that she had seen this strong man crying, and she didn't say anything, silently hugged him and sat here quietly with him.
