I Became Crown Prince's Wife
The appearance of Ancia (2)

"Duke Cassil did many evil things, but it was too cruel to take Richard's life just because they were family."

“What's with the kid? Even if Duke Cassil and his sons are pursuing the throne, it has nothing to do with Richard, b*the son.”

"Richard is the victim of his abuse."

“Why don't we show mercy just once? The Goddess of Light also wants it.”

People sympathized with Richard.

Tenstheon did not doubt Richard. Ancia says that the black witch, Domiram, is Richard's witch.

However, Domiram himself, as well as Duke Cassil, admitted that Duke was his master. Richard says that he doesn't even know Domiram.

They could not execute a 17-year-old boy with just the words of Ancia to support their suspicions.

Eventually, Tensteon ended the situation by usurping Duke Cassil's title and losing his property.

Richard became a commoner, but he saved his life.

Tenstheon continued to monitor Richard even after that, but he never acted against the law.

Richard remained silent, running a small merchant union and orphanage. The place was famous for its good facilities in the city, and Richard was somewhat respected by the people.

It had been seven years since Blake and Richard had faced each other like this, as Richard had never had a social life at all.

Richard often wore fancy clothes, and he was handsome. She used to care a lot about her clothes and accessories before.

But now, his clothes were far from luxurious. The clothes were luxurious, but it turned out to be simple.

Richard is considered a good philanthropist. Not just because of her clothes. He smiled and bowed politely to Blake.

"Your Majesty, the light of the empire."

"You're the one who brought this 'woman?"

Richard's eyebrows shot up subtly when he heard the word "woman" but soon, he replied with a gentle expression.

“Yes, Your Honor.I run a small orphanage, and the children find a woman lying near the orphanage. But when I brought her inside, she looked like the Crown Princess, who went missing seven years ago.”

“Near the orphanage?”

"Yes." Yeah."

Blake glanced at the woman's face. He was not happy to see his wife after seven years. Instead, Blake's expression was filled with doubt.

A stifling silence enveloped the room. At that moment, the woman hugged Blake.

"Your Majesty, I miss you!"

But Blake grabbed her shoulder and pushed her away from him.

“I have something to tell Your Majesty. Everyone go out.”

"Your highness…"

"Go."

The woman is shocked and tries to hold on to Blake again, but reluctantly takes a step back when Richard tells her to.

When everyone left, Tenstheon opened his mouth.

"Are you not acting too rude?"

"There's no evidence that he's Ancia."

He admits that his appearance is very similar. But it's not enough.

"Did you identify him?"

"She said she lost her memory."

Blake laughed out loud.

“It's not surprising.”

Many counterfeits claim to have lost their memories just like him. Blake had never met face to face with a fake face, but he had heard those stories.

Seeing Blake's reaction, Tenstheon said, "The boy is a polyglot."

"A polyglot?"

The fact that Ancia was a polyglot was a secret that even the imperial family knew very little about.

Of course, no impersonator claiming to be the Crown Princess knew that Ancia was a polyglot. His ability is a very rare ability. They couldn't copy it even if they knew.

"Are you sure?"

"I've confirmed it."

Tenstheon is a wise man. If he said so, then it was true that he had the ability of multiple languages.

It can't be a scam. First of all, he couldn't call Blake without much confirmation just because he looked like Ancia.

“It's not just language skills. He also has the power of light. The boy is Ancia.”

Tenstheon argument is valid. Her appearance, language skills, light power, all told them that she was the real Ancia.

But when Blake heard what Tenstheon said, Rose's face appeared in his mind.

***

"Your majesty!"

As soon as Blake came out of the Imperial Palace, he heard the voice of the woman. He looked at the woman calmly.

He really looks like Ancia.

"I heard you lost your memory."

"Yes…"

“How about your wound?”

"It's okay. Richard was so good to me!”

He smiled brightly.

Blake looked at Edon.

“Edon.”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

“...Bring this woman in.”

He should call her the Crown Princess. All the evidence suggests that she is the real Ancia. But those words didn't come out. As the woman left with Edon, Blake glared at Richard.

“What tricks do you use?”

Despite his blatant hostility, Richard smiled gently.

“You still haven't forgiven me. Of course, I understand that.I will never be forgiven for what my family has done to you. I've always thought about how to get your forgiveness.”

"Stop talking nonsense."

He believed what Ancia said regardless of what others said. He believes the black magician, Domiram, belongs to Richard. But Domiram denies it and saves Richard's life.

Seven years ago, when he was released from prison, Richard had that expression on his face. So innocent, it was as if he had done nothing wrong, but Blake did not trust Richard.

He was still convinced that Richard was hiding something even though his face was plain.

“I know you have feelings for my wife. What are you doing?”

Blake said blatantly and Richard smiled faintly, as if recalling old memories.

"Ha ha ha. That was a long time ago. It happened in the past. I won't deny it, but I'm getting married. Can I keep another woman in mind? ”

Richard is engaged to his brother's fiancee, the daughter of Marquis Westin. As an ordinary person, he became the son-in-law of the Marquis family.

Since Marquis Westin did not have a son, Richard would become the next Marquis after he got married. He pretended not to be greedy, but in the end, he became the heir to the Marquis family, and for the first time in seven years, he would return to society spectacularly.

“I am His Majesty's faithful servant. If I have found it, it is natural to bring it back to the palace. ”

Richard answered politely. His words were logical, but Blake seemed even more suspicious.

“I hope it's true.”

“Of course I mean it. How can I lie in front of you?”

"Go."

“I'll go now. Congratulations on finding Your Majesty.”

Richard left the Imperial Palace, keeping the courtesy to the end. Blake's gaze was cold and sharp as he watched Richard leave.

***

News of Ancia's return spread like wildfire in the Crown Prince's palace.

“Is she really the Crown Princess? Is that true?”

"I don't know. Does anyone here know?”

"So far everything's fake."

“That's why I called you all.”

Melissa said the Crown Princess has returned, and all the servants are gathered on the first floor.

Since I was a guest, I didn't have to follow his orders, but I really wondered who was imitating me.

Everyone was waiting for the Crown Princess, who returned after seven years with a face full of excitement and curiosity, but the servants looked stiff.

They came for the position of Crown Princess.

So there was no way they would be happy to see the real Crown Princess.

But as long as they were in front of others, they could not express their deepest feelings.

Instead, they let Chelsea feel worse.

"If the Crown Princess is really back, then Chelsea are really fucked up."

"I know."

"What does that mean?"

Chelsea frowned when he was unexpectedly attacked.

“When the original Crown Princess returns, Rose will be kicked out.”

The servants laughed at me. I'm the one they really want to attack, but they're attacking Chelsea because they can't touch the Crown Prince's guests.

"Everyone watch your words."

Chelsea warned them, as Camilla said,

“They are not wrong. After all your surname has been tarnished.”

“Well, I don't know why my family name would be tarnished because I serve a good woman. And you're the one who messed it up, Camilla.”

"What do you mean?"

“No need to think about it. Just do your job hard.”

"What!?"

"Camilla stop."

Before Camilla and Chelsea started fighting, the other servants rushed to stop them.

But Charlotte stood up as she said, “How beautiful is our Crown Princess! Oh, I hope he comes back quickly. ”

But unlike the other servants, he was really happy that Ancia had returned. Charlotte must really like my looks.

“Silence everyone!”

Melissa, who was standing at the door, gave a strict order to the servants, and the place quickly became quiet.

I also watched them quietly. Now there's only one thing I'm interested in. Who'sis that? Who imitated me?
