Chapter 25
"Her Majesty the Queen has specially chosen a beautiful, gentle and virtuous young lady for Your Highness.
That lady is like the moon in the sky and like a pearl on the ground. She shines brightly among the crowd, and will never be overshadowed even if she stands next to Your Highness.
It's a pity that you will definitely not be able to meet her in this place.
But it's also good. If you dare to meet her, wouldn't it be a provocation in person? Even if the lady from a noble family is willing to forgive your mistake, the queen Her Majesty will never tolerate you again.
His Royal Highness will never want to see you at this time.
Because His Royal Highness has already turned back from his wrong path. He got rid of you once and can get rid of you a second time, but he will never want to have any follow-up entanglement with you.
People like you should not even see His Royal Highness. You are blessed to be alive today, how dare you not cherish it?
If you make Her Majesty the Queen angry again, you will not even have the chance to live here.
Listen to my advice, being alive is better than anything else. You haven't eaten for a few days, right? If you don't even drink water, you will die in three to five days.
Do you want to see His Royal Highness before you die? His Royal Highness is busy with the engagement party and will never come to see you. Even if he comes, it won't be good.
Have you forgotten that His Royal Highness's fiancée has been chosen?
His Royal Highness is a good man with a very good temper. If his future wife is not good enough for you, If Qi wants to see you and asks him, he will not refuse.
It is very likely that the two of them will come together at that time, but you look worse than usual. When you meet someone with all those jewels and precious stones, you will just be like a pile of mud under the brilliance.
Do you want the last impression left in His Royal Highness's heart to be that I was really blind to choose someone like you to get close to? You are harming His Royal Highness. "
The gatekeeper seemed to have drunk a lot today and said a few more words.
The World of Truth felt that maybe he could ask something at this time.
"His Royal Highness is preparing for the engagement banquet. When will it be ready?"
asked the World of Truth.
"I don't know. It will take at least a month, right?
One month is too short. According to marriage customs, it will take at least three years to prepare. However, the engagement party can take less time, at least a year to prepare.
But the young lady who was chosen as His Royal Highness the Prince's fiancée doesn't mind these, and the family behind her doesn't mind either.
Her Majesty the Queen is anxious to get this done, and everyone is impatient. No one will get entangled in trivial matters, and they just hope that the preparation time will be as short as possible.
After all, no matter which family it is, marrying into the royal family is a good choice. After the marriage, they will definitely get a lot of resources, whether it is political or economic, they will be satisfied.
This is also to maintain the relationship between the royal family and distant relatives. Don't you know yet? The royal family and court officials mostly have some blood relationship, but they are not close."
The person outside the door answered with a mutter.
"Does the prince go out often?"
asked the world of truth.
"Yes.
He had almost no free time before, but now he is busy preparing for the engagement banquet. This also shows that the prince is very satisfied with the fiancée chosen by the queen.
You should stop trying to make trouble. This will be good for everyone and I will have less worries."
The person outside the door answered.
"Did the prince bring the dog?"
asked the world of truth.
"Hahaha! How is that possible? Your Highness hates dogs the most, and how could His Highness, with such a noble status, raise a dog himself?
Don't dream.
However, His Highness has many friends around him now, all of whom are princes and nobles. Occasionally, some of them like to fight chickens and run dogs, and they also lead some dogs at home.
Those dogs have also seen His Highness. At first, they were very noisy, but later they became quiet. Everyone said that those dogs were happy to see His Highness, so they were willing to obey.
Her Majesty the Queen said that this was enough to show that His Highness had grown up.
Because he was about to get married, he could be independent. If you are not afraid of barking dogs, you will naturally be fearless in the future and stand tall.
This also shows that His Royal Highness is more than qualified to marry anyone.
Thinking about it this way, the young lady is still a little unworthy.
But no matter how good that lady is, she is much better than you.
Even if that lady may not be His Royal Highness's fiancée, you will definitely not be able to leave here and stay by His Royal Highness's side as his follower like before.
How can an ant like you be qualified to serve His Royal Highness?
Do you know how the people who served His Royal Highness in the past were selected? At least you need to have an identity and a family. Some financial resources, and also a good character.
A slightly better face is only the most basic requirement, and serving His Royal Highness the Prince does not require a very good-looking face. You just took the initiative and got a good deal.
Don't be too proud.
You have annoyed Her Majesty the Queen. Unless His Royal Highness the Prince is desperate, you can only see His Royal Highness the Prince before you die, and you need His Royal Highness the Prince's prior consent.
Do you think you occupy an important part in His Royal Highness's heart? Impossible. You are
absolutely not as important as Her Majesty the Queen in His Royal Highness's heart. Even if you don't compare with Her Majesty the Queen, His Royal Highness the Prince is now... He already has a fiancée, but you are not even as good as her.
Shouldn't you face reality?
I don't know how such words came out of my mouth.
Did you put the things in your dream on His Royal Highness the Prince? This is not good, you need to change.
Distinguish the boundary between reality and dreams. If you can get out of here one day, you can live well. Otherwise, you will only die early and be reborn.
Forget it, since you did those things before, I don't think you are a person who only wants to survive and seek stability. In this case, I have nothing to advise you."
The person outside the door sighed.
"Do you think His Royal Highness the Prince is a good person?"
asked the World of Truth.
"Your Highness is of course a good man. Is there any other good man in the world besides him?
When I was desperate and poor, it was Your Highness who gave me a sum of money so that I would not starve to death on the street.
At that time, I thought that I would live for Your Highness all my life.
I would do whatever Your Highness asked me to do. Your Highness could do anything. I would definitely follow him and do whatever he wanted for him until he was satisfied.
I am willing to give everything for Your Highness, but unfortunately Your Highness never appreciates it.
Maybe he has forgotten me a long time ago, which is normal.
It happened many years ago. Your Highness was much older than he is now. I was still young, and now I am so busy, how much can I remember?
His Royal Highness is a good man, he must have done more than one good deed a day, his merits are immeasurable, and his good deeds shine throughout the world, although I have benefited a lot, but I am just one of the countless people.
I don't mind if he forgets me, I am satisfied as long as I can see him here.
I really hope that His Royal Highness's eyes can look at me again, but I also know that His Royal Highness has the world in his heart, and it is normal that he can't see me for a while.
He saved my life once, and now whatever he does is what he should do. "
The person outside the door kept chattering, and after a while he became quiet as if he fell asleep.
The World of Truth looked out through the crack in the door, and suddenly there were footsteps outside, it was someone coming to take over the shift.
The World of Truth knew that he couldn't get anything out of him today, so he closed his eyes and lay on the ground to rest.
He didn't want to open his eyes, because it was pitch black here, whether it was day or night, and his eyes seemed to have lost their function here.
This environment at this time was most suitable for rest.
He fell into a drowsy state in the darkness of this small room.
I don't know how long it had been, the door was suddenly opened, letting in a large amount of light, and a person walked in from outside, walked in front of the World of Truth, and blocked part of the light.
The World of Truth came out of his dazed state.
"Who are you?"
The World of Truth forced himself to open his eyes, but he couldn't see the face of the person in front of him clearly. Even his clothes were unfamiliar and he didn't recognize him. Judging from his figure, he seemed to be a man.
He thought, could it be that Her Majesty the Queen finally waited until the engagement banquet of Her Royal Highness the Prince was over, and remembered that there was still someone like me here, so she was going to send someone to deal with me?
But it's not necessary to dress so formally, right?
Or do you want a group of people to come and chop me into pulp?
Is there such a deep hatred?
I don't feel like they have done anything so excessive.
Strange.
"Did they give you something to drink? You don't even recognize me."
Araki asked in a panic.
"It turned out to be you, I didn't see clearly for a moment."
The World of Truth laughed.
"Am I dreaming? I actually saw you here. But when I dream, there are not many people outside the door. Are they waiting for you to go out? What are you going to do?"
The World of Truth asked.
"It's not a dream. They are not waiting for me to go out, they just want to ensure the safety here. You should not ask what I should do, but what I did."
Araki carefully picked up the World of Truth.
The world of truth had been lying on the ground for too long, and some parts of him had become stuck together. The first to be affected were his bad leg injuries and clothes, and the second was his back, which had marks from the whip.
Araki clearly heard a sticky tearing sound.
He asked cautiously, "Will it hurt?"
"No, don't worry, I'm unconscious now."
The world of truth replied with a smile.
Araki's eyes suddenly turned red, as if he had been hit hard, and he whispered, "I'm sorry."
"You didn't cause these injuries, and you didn't even give the order to beat people. You don't have to blame yourself for these injuries. You have nothing to be sorry for."
The world of truth patted him on the shoulder.
Araki said, "Every word I said before counts."
