Chapter 2 — The Princess Has Not Been Separated Today

The prince immediately stood up, clasped his hands with the Old Princess and said:

"Today, I just returned triumphantly. I'll wait for you to get organized and then come to greet your mother-in-law."

I brought a happy mood back to Ham Dam Uyen. Since marrying into the Royal Palace, before they could even get married, the Royal Family was already on the battlefield. Even the true appearance of my husband, I have never seen clearly, yet I continued to wear the title of Quang An Vuong An for three years. That year, the Royal Family had to go to war. The Emperor felt sorry for him, so he issued an order that before going to war, he must complete the marriage and try to leave a legacy for the family. Although Quang An Vuong Tieu Dien had a noble status, the ferocious Bac Dich tribe came like hungry tigers. No one in the capital could afford to marry their daughters into a family that would likely have to commit adultery at a young age. But my father is different. That year, my mother was fed up with the struggles in the backyard, so she asked my father for a letter of divorce and went alone to the North, to live freely in the countryside. My father turned around and married the daughter of the Minister's Palace. After getting married, the two had a passionate love and gave birth to another daughter. Everyone in the capital knows that the Thi Lang Bo Ho palace has two daughters. The eldest daughter, Kich Vi, was the daughter of a female merchant. Her father did not love her, her mother did not love her, and her status was not even equal to that of a concubine. Little girl Kich Lan is the biological daughter of the current Great Lady. She is pampered and pampered in every way, both talented and beautiful. Right at such an important time, my father wanted to please the Emperor so he gave me as a gift and married him to the Royal Family. I still clearly remember that big wedding night. The red candlelight on the table shook, its shadow flickering on the red veil on my head. Through the veil, we can only see a vague figure. He turned his head to look at me and said:

"Tomorrow this king must go on an expedition, his life or death is unknown."

“If you can't return, my mother will find you a good place to stay.”

“If you are lucky enough to return to the capital, this king will compensate you for today's wedding night.”

He reached out and cut off the wick.

“It's not early anymore, young lady, rest early.”

Even though he was just a vague silhouette behind the veil, every gesture of raising his arms and lifting his legs made my heart unconsciously beat faster. Until he left the room, my heart was still pounding non-stop. From that moment on, I felt that the King must be a good person. But among this group of noble kings, how many are truly good people? Every family has wives and concubines in groups, and the backyard fights to the point that chickens fly and dogs bark. It was because my mother hated such a life that she chose to leave far away. I also don't want to get caught up in that mud when I was young. Before hearing his words, I even expected him to die on the battlefield. At that time, I can of course escape the Royal Palace. But after hearing those words that day, that cool and gentle voice was like a clear stream flowing into my heart. I began to hope that he could return safely. Then let me leave. Because of today's separation, from the second day after marrying into the Royal Palace, I began to secretly plan and make arrangements. When Old King When Phi Phi fell ill, her two granddaughters on her mother's side were by her side day and night to take care of her. As for me, I sleep every day until the sun rises before I wake up. Every day, I put on meticulous makeup, dress beautifully, then head straight to the most luxurious mandarin restaurant in the capital - Nam Phong Quan. The shopkeeper didn't dare stop me. Don't even dare to actually introduce men to me. Occasionally returning to the backyard, every time I passed by the courtyard of those two cousins, I showed the appearance of being the head of the house. I sat on one side, asked the maid to fan me, leisurely enjoying the premium Long Tinh tea, while supervising the two girls carrying water and pounding rice. Every day I give you tasks: The large water tank in the hospital must be filled. The amount of new rice brought into the government every day must be completely pounded.
