"The news hasn't spread yet, but I know that my parents have spoken with Xize's parents and they've decided to call off the engagement."
Once this matter is exposed, the royal family will be in deep trouble because of me. The kingdom's subjects will think that I have disgraced the royal family and that my parents have failed to discipline me properly. Gradually, they will become dissatisfied with my father's rule, and then those with ulterior motives will launch a war. In this way, the kingdom's peace will no longer exist.
If that day ever comes, I will be a sinner to the entire Republic of Diaz.
As soon as Arthur finished speaking, Song Yuli looked at her incredulously.
Good heavens, are you kidding me?
It's just a small matter, is it really necessary to make such a big deal out of it?
Why demand war and the guilty? We live in a peaceful era!
Song Yuli looked at him speechlessly: "So, you couldn't stand it and wanted to commit suicide?"
Arthur nodded.
Her initial thought was simple: if Diaz were to be engulfed in war because of her, she would rather die now.
Song Yuli: "..."
"Arthur, aren't you overthinking this? We live in a time of peace, there aren't any wars like you're talking about."
Arthur looked up at Song Yuli and shook his head seriously: "You don't understand. You live in a peaceful country, so you naturally assume that all countries are peaceful, but that's not the case."
Even now, many countries in the world are still engulfed in war, and many people are still suffering from the ravages of war.
I once lived in a war-torn country where the people had neither shelter nor food. They were all emaciated, their eyes filled with deep fear. I don't want my people to become like that.
Song Yuli was speechless for a moment.
Seeing Arthur with his head down, surrounded by a gloomy aura, Song Yuli lowered his eyes, looked at his stomach, and directly changed the subject.
"Arthur, I'm pregnant."
Arthur was taken aback, and looked up at her in confusion: "I know, Grandma already told me."
After hearing this, Song Yuli spoke again: "Then tell me, after the child in my belly is born, will it look more like me or more like Nangong Yu?"
Upon hearing this, Arthur instinctively asked, "The baby is still in your belly, how would I know?"
Song Yuli touched his nose somewhat awkwardly: "That's why I'm letting you guess, do you hope the child looks more like me or more like Nangong Yu?"
After hearing this, Arthur actually lowered her head and pondered for a while before looking up and speaking.
"Of course, it would be better if she looked more like her cousin, because her cousin is good-looking."
"puff--"
A sharp little arrow shot straight into Song Yuli's heart.
So, you mean I'm not good-looking?
Seeing Song Yuli's unpleasant expression, Arthur subconsciously shook his head: "No, no, no, sister-in-law, your idea is quite nice, but compared to cousin, it's still a little lacking."
"puff--"
The second sharp arrow struck Song Yuli's heart once again.
Arthur stared at Song Yuli for a long time before suddenly speaking again: "However, I hope the child's eyes will look like yours, because your eyes are really beautiful, and when you smile they are like crescent moons, sparkling and eye-catching."
