Chapter 6
Chapter 6 — As soon as I left, he immediately closed the entire city
But very quickly, his face turned cold again:
"She has her heart and soul for her, but that doesn't mean she can indulge herself at will."
"You are my Crown Princess. In the future, you will still have to manage the six palaces. You should have a gentle and generous personality."
"And yet you attacked Tinh Nhu. You must punish her, so that she can hone her temper."
The dark guard did not respond. Because he did not dare to completely agree with His Highness the Crown Prince's words. He was also married, but he never dared to vent his anger on his wife. Even when his wife sheds tears, he panics, afraid that she will think twice and return to her mother's house. For the past two years, His Highness has been extremely cold towards the Crown Princess. Every year, rare treasures are awarded in the palace, the Crown Prince gives priority to taking them to the palace of Minister Tieu first. The Crown Princess can only use the remaining things. He looked at everything in his eyes, and in his heart also felt unfair for the Crown Princess. Remembering that the Crown Princess had helped her, the secret guard finally opened his mouth:
"Your Highness, could you please come and check on the Crown Princess? What if she really falls ill?"
It's so cold. Falling into the lake without dying is also considered a lucky thing. Ly Triet suddenly stopped walking, frowned and said to the secret guard:
“Do you look like a free person?”
The dark guard was silent. In fact, when the secret guard mentioned it, Ly Triet never thought of visiting To Le. Having been married for two years, he just wanted her to stay away from him as much as possible. Every time he was in the study room, To Le used an excuse to bring him food to warm up or cool him down. What he hates most is such careful thoughts. He is not a person whose will wavers. In his heart, there was only Tieu Tinh Nhu, his eyes had no room for anyone else, even though To Le was the only person who had ever had a marital relationship with him. But he is a man. He is the heir to the throne. Even if she had a child with To Le, Tieu Tinh Nhu would have to accept it. Thinking of this, Ly Triet suddenly had the idea of wanting to meet the wife arranged by the matchmaker. The day she fell into the lake, I don't know if she was angry with him or not. Anyway, To Le is also a very easy-to-coax person. Previously, he meticulously prepared the brooches for Tieu Tinh Nhu, but when she refused, he conveniently gave them to To Le. To Le respectfully accepted it and wore it in her hair every day, as bright as a begonia flower in spring. He... misses her a little. Ly Triet flipped through a few copies, and the more he looked, the more frustrated he became, so he said:
"You're hungry. Call the Crown Princess to stew a pot of goat meat soup and bring it over."
He took out the bracelet that Tieu Tinh Nhu criticized a few days ago as unsuitable. Clear jade, gentle water light. He's in a better mood today, so it's okay to comfort her a little. Less than a stick of incense, To Le's close maid rushed in, her face full of worry:
"Your Highness... Is the Crown Princess not with you? She has been absent from the Eastern Palace for three days."
For three consecutive days, not a single palace servant saw To Le. The maid only knew that, on the night of the lantern festival, the Crown Princess was dressed neatly and went out alone to meet the Crown Prince. An indescribable feeling of insecurity suddenly arose in Ly Triet's heart. The hand placed on his desk trembled slightly. In his mind, he saw her eyes asking for help as she fell went into the water that day. That day, although he took Tieu Tinh Nhu away, he still sent someone to stay and watch. That person didn't come to bother him, so he thought that To Le had already obediently returned to the East Palace. Until To Le disappeared. He just learned that the maid had swallowed gold and committed suicide three days ago, freezing to death in her room. Ly Triet's heart began to be chaotic. But he refused to believe his guess. In a panic, he alone and on horseback rushed straight to Prime Minister To's palace. To Le must have returned to her mother's house. Just bring her back. It's okay. In front of the To palace gate. Tu Tuong trembled and hung two white lanterns under the eaves, his wife standing next to him cried until she was exhausted. When Ly Triet arrived, Minister To still politely bowed. There seemed to be tears in those blurred eyes:
“Prince… where is my daughter?”
The old lady also knelt down:
"I heard that my little daughter died. The Eastern palace hid it and refused to mourn her, so my father had to take care of it himself."
