Chapter 12
Chapter 12 — Past Fairness Restored
“When the subordinates turned around, they only saw the King being dragged into the alley by two people.” The blue veins on the back of His Majesty's hand appeared. “Who are those two people?” The old subordinates looked at the Crown Prince, then at Tham Bao Chau. “One is the guard of the Eastern Palace.” The prince suddenly raised his head. “You are spitting blood!” The old subordinate coughed up blood but still gritted his teeth and said: "The subordinate recognizes him." “His left little finger is missing a piece.” "Later, his subordinates were chased and killed, and he led them." The commander of the forbidden army immediately stepped out. “Your Majesty, you can check the list of East Palace guards.” The Crown Prince's face finally changed. Tham Bao Chau was shaking like a bed. Ta Tam Lang looked at her. “What about the other one?” The old subordinate panted for a long time. “The other one covers his face.” “But my subordinates heard that woman calling him Crown Prince brother.” There was silence in the palace. Tham Bao Chau suddenly cried. “Not me!” “I'm just scared!” “That day, my sister insisted on asking why I took her brooch.” “She said she was the real lady of the Marquis Palace.” "I was so angry that I pushed her." “I do not intend to harm the Royal Family.” She crawled towards Lieu Thi. “Nang, I really don't think that much.” “I'm just afraid that after my sister returns, people won't need me anymore.” Lieu Thi hugged her, crying in pain until her heart broke. “Bao Chau, why are you so confused?” I watch them hug each other. The last bit of hope in my heart was like a red speck left in the ashes, finally extinguished. Even though the evidence of the crime is in front of your eyes. The person Lieu Thi hugged first was still Tham Bao Chau. Tham Hoai Chuong trembled and said: "Your Majesty, this matter may still be hidden." "Bao Chau did not understand things at a young age and absolutely did not dare to get involved in Eastern palace affairs." "As for Duong Am falling into the water, I wish to make amends." "God wishes to welcome her back to the palace and make up for it well." I suddenly laughed. Everyone in the palace looked at me. I walked step by step in front of Tham Hoai Chuong. “Compensate?” “What do you get in return?” “Make up for when I was fifteen years old when I cried for help in the water until my throat bled?” "Make up for my fever for half a month. Is my dream filled with lake water?" "To make up for the first year in my hometown where I didn't dare look in the mirror because I felt like no one needed me?" Tham Hoai Chuong's lips trembled. “Duong Am, that year father…” I interrupted him. “You are not the father.” "Father will not blame his daughter for embarrassing her first after she almost died." "Mother will not force her daughter to pray for the person who harmed her when she returns." Lieu Thi cried and raised her head. “Duong Am, you know it's wrong.” I look at her. “You know it's wrong.” “But she still hugged Tham Bao Chau.” Lieu Thi's hand stiffened. I continued to say: "I really wanted to be your daughter." “Want to learn the rules of the capital.” “I want you to not hate me.” "I want one day you all will pat my head and say I'm very good." “But later someone told me.” “I survived very well.” I turned my head to look at Ta Tam Lang. He stood there, eyes red but still smiling at me. Like a light that refuses to go out in winter. I'm back. “So I won't wait anymore.” “From today, I break with Dinh An Marquis Palace.” "I can't repay the grace of being born." “But for the rest of your life, please don't come to ask for my life again.” Lieu Thi cried until she almost fainted. Tham Hoai Chuong lay down, not speaking. His Majesty opened his mouth in a low voice. "Standard
.” "From today, Tham Duong Am is no longer under the control of Dinh An Marquis Palace." "The case of falling into the water that year and the case of Chieu Vuong being attacked, both were investigated to the end." The Crown Prince's face turned pale. “Your Majesty, I have been wronged.” His Majesty did not look at him. “Secret down.” When the Crown Prince was detained by the forbidden army, he suddenly looked at Tham Bao Chau fiercely. “Idiot.” "I shouldn't have kept you back that year." Tham Bao Chau's whole body stiffened. Lieu Thi raised her head, her eyes filled with fear. The smile on Ta Tam Lang's face disappeared. “Your Highness's words, I hear something very important.” The Crown Prince kept his mouth shut and did not speak. Just as the army was about to lead people away, urgent footsteps suddenly rang out outside the palace. A palace man knelt on the ground. “Your Majesty, it's not good.” “The Eastern Palace lacks a guard.” “Before leaving the palace, that person led a team of centaurs.” “The direction is the village where Miss Tham just came from.” 13 As soon as the palace man's words ended, it was as if a basin of ice water had been poured into the palace. The first thing that appeared in my mind was the figure of Aunt Dao standing under the willow tree sending me off. In her hand, she was still holding the corner of her apron, her mouth was saying that I was annoying, but her eyes were filled with uneasiness. Ta Tam Lang's face also changed. He turned to his Majesty. “Brother Hoang, I have to go back to the village.” His Majesty said in a deep voice: "The Imperial Army has chased after us." Ta Tam Lang shook his head. “They targeted Duong Am.” "If they can't find her, they will vent their anger on the people in the village." “Aunt Dao is still there.” I tighten my fingers. “I'll go too.” Ta Tam Lang looked at me and immediately said: "Okay." His Majesty frowned. “On a dangerous road.” Ta Tam Lang is very serious. “The danger is them.” "They dared to come to the village, which shows they were crazy because of the rush." “The more you hurry, the easier it is to show your tail.” "Duong Am doesn't go, they don't let go of Aunt Dao either."
