Until late at night, Seya was still looking down at Tekken Castle from the castle tower of the palace.

Since Gu Shiyu said goodbye to her in the morning and went to talk to Princess Catherine, he has not come back yet.

Did he follow his sister's army to Standwick Castle?

This is the first time she trusts Gu Shiyu enough...... She believed that he was a man in charge, and he should not abandon his legal wife and elope with his original lover.

Did he see him wrong? Did he really go away after rescuing Catherine and Laurel, as the Queen Mother had expected?

If so, should you still keep the agreement you made earlier?

Tell me, O God Almighty, what should I do now!

In the bleak night, Sea's tears flowed down like an endless spring.

On the winding avenue outside the city, more than a dozen torches galloped over.

That was supposed to be a cavalry squad. Will Gu Shiyu be there?

In the distance, she could hear the soldiers guarding the city asking loudly. But the cold wind was blowing from the top of the mountains, from the bitter north, and even if she had sharpened her ears to listen, she still couldn't hear what they were saying.

She hurriedly lifted the hem of her skirt and wanted to run down the city wall to see what was going on. But she suddenly ran into a person head-on, which made her heart immediately rise to her throat.

It was her father, Kendall. I heard him shout, "Hasn't that kid come back yet?" Fuck, am I mistaken in him?! If I had known that, I should have shackled him in your boudoir!!"

Ah, imprison him in the boudoir? What is he?

A father who has lost his freedom, you are wrong! He promised me that he would definitely come back, and I believe he was in that cavalry squad outside the city!"

"If he did elope with Catherine, I'd definitely lead all the loyal warriors of Erathia to chase him up and chop him to pulp!

"Father, can you not speak so loudly, I'm sure the entire inhabitants of Tekken Castle heard what you were saying!"

"Okay, then I'll wait and see! If there is no him in that cavalry squad, Lao Tzu will have to raise troops!"

"Father, please calm down! Don't forget, I am the king of Erathia! If you can't raise an army, it should be up to me to decide who to attack!"

"Don't forget, Lao Tzu is your father! I can do whatever I want! Since he reneged on the agreement, the previous agreement is no longer in force, and Lao Tzu is still the ruler of Erathia!"

"Father, you have given me the throne of king!" Seya burst into tears: "You are so unreasonable to do this!"

"Do you think I'm a reasonable man?" Kendall leaned over the wall, motionless as he watched the cavalry squad go.

Fortunately, after the cavalry team entered the city, it rushed towards the palace, which made Thea feel a lot more at ease. She trotted all the way to the palace gates, chased by a large group of royal guards, as well as her father Kendall.

"Slow down!" exclaimed Kendall, "I don't think you've ever been so eager to welcome me back!"

I remember when I was very young, every time you returned from a trip, my mother would hold my hand and wait quietly outside the palace gate. And you're always picking me up and stabbing me in the face with your stubble beard......

But when you became king, everything changed! You were so short-tempered that you lost your temper at every turn. And every time you and your mother quarrel, I would stand next to me in fear and cry......

You've barely kissed me since...... I can only see your lovingkindness in my dreams...... I often hide timidly next to you, hoping that you will pick me up......

But you don't have ...... You even ignored my pleas and sent me to study on the Holy Light Island...... Father, do you know how many tears I shed over this?

Perhaps you wish me well, that I can take over the throne of Erathia from you...... But I don't want to...... I just want to be an ordinary but happy girl.

When I first met Guzi, I found a glimmer of happiness that I had not seen for a long time, but then it was gone.

Father, Mother, do you know that my heart is now like a heavy stone weighing down on me......

Father, I don't think you've found happiness for me...... If this happiness is based on the suffering of others, then I would rather not!

I'm like a little worm wrapped in a cocoon...... Will I be able to break out of my cocoon and play freely in the sun, or will I struggle helplessly in the cocoon and die slowly?

Seya wiped tears from her cheeks and watched as the palace door opened little by little.

Gu Shiyu was carried in. Before he could get closer, Saya could smell the thick smell of alcohol on him.

The knight in the lead knelt down on his knees and said, "Your Majesty, Lady Queen, I, Cousin, your humble knight, am willing to obey any of your commands!"

"Get up! Gu Zi has recommended you to me, and he admires your talent quite a bit! I will issue a letter of appointment immediately, and I hope you will not live up to his and my trust in you!"

"Your Majesty, I will always remember the courage and honor of a knight!" said Cuthbert, holding his right hand to his chest.

He ...... Is he okay?" asked Seya worriedly as he came to Gu Shiyu, who was unconscious.

"He didn't drink too much...... We all tried to persuade him, but we couldn't!" said Cuthbert, "before he fell unconscious, he told me that he must be sent back to the castle overnight. ”

Tears began to roll in Saiya's eyes.

"Didn't you drink more, I've seen more drunks!" said Kendall, grinning, "Look how I wake him up!"

"Don't!" Cried out to Seya, "You're going to hurt him!"

"I've got to wake him up, or he'll get sick and maybe even become an idiot!"

"He's right!" The Queen Mother also rushed over when she heard the sound: "Every time your father is drunk, I put my fingers in his mouth and make him vomit me!"

"I'm not going to be so stupid!" Kendall cried, "What if he opened his mouth and bit my finger off?! I'm sure he's trying to bite me now!

Kendall put his big hand on Gu Shiyu's lower abdomen, and then pushed it upward. Every time he pushed, he could see Gu Shiyu's Adam's apple twitching violently.

After only a few pushes, Gu Shiyu suddenly opened his mouth, and the wine in his stomach gushed out, like the Milky Way pouring down from the nine heavens. Ignoring the foul stench, Saiya half-crouched and wiped the mucus from his mouth with his sleeve.

Gu Shiyu spoke. The voice was small, but it was loud enough for Saiya, who was crouching in front of him, to hear it clearly.

Catherine ...... Catherine ...... You can't go, don't you know my heart......

Saiya's movements froze. She felt cold, as if she had fallen into a bottomless ice cave......

Kendall heard it, too! He said angrily, "Fuck! Let me give him a few big mouths so he can come to his senses!"

"You dare!" Cuthbert and the people around him immediately stood beside Gu Shiyu, their hands pressed on the hilt of the sword!

"Drink, you have great courage! Do you dare to make a move against His Majesty? You must know that it is a capital crime to draw a sword before the king!"

"You are not our king!" Cuthbert was not intimidated by his aggressive presence: "You are Kendall Einfast, the commander of the First Corps! The king of Erathia is Her Majesty Queen Saiya! But if you mistakenly believe that you are still the king of Erathia, then I will exercise my sacred right as the minister of Erathia!"

"It's the other way around!" Kendall burst into a rage: "Do you even dare to shout in front of me with such a weak Mr. glasses!!"

"He's right, Kendall!" said the Queen Mother calmly, "You are no longer the king of Erathia, you must always remember who you are!"

"Alright! alright!" Kendall turned and saw several of the guards standing in front of him, so he angrily threw his hands to both sides, and the ranks of guards were immediately pushed by him and staggered. The rest of the guards hurriedly dodged a way, allowing an enraged Kendall to pass through the middle.

"Please send His Royal Highness Prince Regent to the palace to rest!" the Queen Mother ordered the guards.

It wasn't until the guards carried Gu Shiyu away that Saiya stood up in despair.

"Your Majesty, if you have no other orders, I will take their leave!" said Cuthbert.

"Okay...... You go to the State Guesthouse to rest first, and tomorrow I will arrange the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Cuthbert bowed, then left the palace with his assistants.

"Mother, this day is simply unbearable......" Two lines of tears rolled down Seya's cheeks.

"Saiya...... You...... You must have confidence in yourself! Your sister is excellent, but I dare say you are even better than her!"

"I ...... I can't accept that my husband has another woman in mind!" Seya cried.

The Queen Mother hugged Saiya and said softly: "That means you like him very much in your heart! As a wise woman, you must learn how to keep your husband's heart, instead of driving him away and throwing him into the arms of another woman!"

"Mother...... Please tell me what I can do to keep him......"

"Influence him with your love!"

"I love him enough......"

"Then you should let him understand that your love for him is no less than Catherine!" The Queen Mother stroked Saiya's show and said: "Love is not only in the heart, nor is it only on the lips, it should be expressed bit by bit in ordinary times." A simple greeting, a knowing look, a gentle smile, and a little care can move him...... You also know that your father has a lot of women outside...... I...... Although he did not give birth to a prince, he never thought of deposing me as queen and finding another woman to replace me. Because he knows that the woman who loves him the most in the world is me, and only I will defend him with all my heart, and other women just admire his power!"

"Mother, do you feel happy?" said Seya, looking up at her mother with teary eyes.

"I don't think I'm happy. The Queen Mother sighed: "I even think that if I were a farmer's wife, maybe I would be happier." There is no 100 percent happy woman in the world, only a man who is constantly messing with flowers and grass! Men will empathize with each other, while women can only accept it! Is this the fate of women?"

"Get used to all this, Saiya!" the Queen Mother comforted, "Warm his heart with your love, and I believe he will gradually forget everything." As far as I know, your sister's mother, Laurel, has gone to Dia. If I'm right, she's supposed to go to the Duke of Elaren to talk about Catherine's marriage to Prince Roland. ”

"Oh my God, did my sister forget her affair with Guzi so quickly?" Seya's eyes immediately widened.

"She's a smart woman...... She's doing this for everyone's good, isn't it?"

"I don't want her to do this for me!"

"Fool!" The Queen Mother smiled: "A woman's thoughts are strange! When a woman is the most stupid, she falls in love with a man! When a woman is the most stupid, she will give everything to the man she loves deeply! When a woman is the stupidest, she will sacrifice everything for her children! Women are the most selfish, but they are also very strange, and women are also the most selfless in the world! Who knows what Catherine is thinking now? But none of this matters anymore, the important thing is that he is still by your side! He didn't leave with Catherine, which shows that he is still a responsible man. ”

"When you say that, I feel so much better......

"Saiya, I want to ask you, did you do that with him yesterday?"

"What...... Oh my God, what are you talking about?" said Seya, who was so ashamed that he just wanted to run away.

"Don't hide it from me!" the Queen Mother said earnestly: "I can know everything from the traces left on your bed! He didn't even sleep in bed yesterday!" she took Seya's hand, those little hands were cold and cold. She sighed, "You're still a virgin!"

"Mother's ......"

"Sooner or later, the one who should be born will be born!" the Queen Mother said: "But I want you to remember that when he is drunk, you should refuse to talk to him!"

"Why ......"

"Because we all want you to have a smart, healthy baby, not a drooling fool!

"Mother......" Seya blushed with shame and ran away in a panic like a frightened fawn.

Until he ran back to the dormitory, Saiya's heart was still pounding.

She sat on the edge of the bed and watched Gu Shiyu in her sleep.

Mother, how can you tell me this, what a shame!

She touched her cheek, which was piping hot.

After a long time, she sighed faintly, curled up in her chair, and slowly fell asleep......
