I'm the King's Son?
CHAPTER 20
I looked at the person who had shocked me half to death, still crouching. And all the serapah vows that I had prepared instantly disappeared also disappeared in just an instant.
The man extended his hand to me. I just looked at him in wonder. Who he is, I don't think I've seen him in my entire life. But judging from his appearance he looks like a noble what is this....
"Son't you daydream?." He said he broke all my thoughts.
He still faithfully clasped his hands at me with a smile.
He turned out to be Xiao Chen. The second son of the king. Born to a concubine named Jiang. He's a good kid with the ridiculous mannerisms he has. 16 Years old. It has 5 elements. Fire, wind, water, earth as well as lightning.
I received his hand and immediately stood up. But what happened was that he dragged me. I don't know where he's taking me. We both ran a little far away from my residence. I just kept following everything he did.
I was too lazy to ask, after running around earlier and now I have to be dragged forcibly like this. Can't my mornings here be fun?. Why is it that there are always annoying things going on.
"Where are we going?." I asked her very flatly. And that sentence made him stop his footsteps.
We both stopped near a big tree in the garden. I had no intention of going to this place. Huhhhhh... Oh gosh.
"Your Majesty... There's something I want to tell you." He said it seriously and looked at me deeply.
"What?." Just a makeshift response I gave him.
"Sister... All this time, a few days... All that happened to you... Actually was... Behaviour from my mother." He said in a stammer.
My eyebrows shot up one, not understanding what he said. It seems like my brain is still digesting the words it says. And for a few minutes my head was also still loading.
The brain work in my head slowed down.
"Sister..." Prince Xiao Chen called me slowly.
"Ep... What's?." Now I look like a fool.
"You... Is that okay, Your Majesty?." Prince Xiao Chen asked worriedly.
"I'm doing fine. And what do you mean I don't understand." I said with a plain look asking for a stamp.
"Your Majesty, I don't mean brother please don't go tomorrow." He begged while pleading with me.
~At other places~
Lien Hua was sitting pensively. His mind floated in light of the incident when he met the Crown Prince. Sometimes he will smile sweetly, sometimes he will express himself.

The Prime Minister who saw his daughter like this was worried. Lien Hua would rather be a loner now. He called his wife who was approaching him.
"What happened to our daughter?. Since when did he like being moody and alone like that?." The Prime Minister said to his wife.
"Either... It had been since yesterday that he was like this, after coming home from the palace. I don't know what happened to him there." Lien Hua's mother Lady Lien felt anxious to see her daughter.
"We just ask Lien Hua. What exactly happened to her?." The Prime Minister walked over to his youngest daughter followed by his wife behind him.
"Lien Hua's..." Call the father.
"Yes His Majesty... Eh?! dad, mom." Lien Hua replied in surprise when she saw her father and mother were already nearby.
"Your Majesty?." His mother asked in wonder.
"Who are you really thinking about Lien Hua?." The Prime Minister asked firmly.
"Well-well... L'm... That's me..." Lien Hua was nervous.
"You're thinking about the Crown Prince?." The Prime Minister asked his daughter.
"Dad..." Lien Hua Lirih.
"Is that really my daughter?." Madam Lien who as her mother also asked because she felt curious.
Lien Hua looked down at her father and mother, then she nodded softly in return. The two men just stared in disbelief at their son. They did not expect his son would put his heart on a successor to the royal throne.
"Lien Hua's... Do you like the Crown Prince?." His mother asked back.
"Mothers... I don't know, I just... Just always thinking about it. Please forgive me, mother." Lien Hua looked down deeply.
"Dad doesn't forbid you to like my daughter, but I strongly disagree that you have a relationship with the Crown Prince." The Prime Minister stroked the head of his dear daughter.
Instantly, Lien Hua immediately looked up at the father who was looking at him.
"Why father?." Eyes glazed.
"Yes my husband why are you talking like that?." His wife, Mrs Lien also asked because she did not understand the way her husband thought.
"Dad doesn't want you to get hurt later. And again the Crown Prince will risk his life if he comes into contact with you any further. Please stop your feelings, before your race gets bigger on him." There was also a sad tone as the Prime Minister said so. He left the child and his wife who looked at him confused, for he said ambiguously.
"Mother..." Lien Hua looked at her mother sadly. The sensitive Madame Lien immediately grabbed her daughter in her arms.
"Mom understands... I'll try to talk to your father. Lien Hua can't be sad, hm?." Then he cupped his son's face with both hands. Smiling hoping that his daughter would calm down after seeing his smile.
~At Crown Prince's residence~
I'm working on some of my duties as Crown Prince here. A few piles of paper are on my desk.
It didn't feel like I had finished everything quickly. For almost an hour I sat down daydreaming after doing my job.
It was still fresh in my memory when I spoke to Xiao Chen. He was very worried about his brother, the Crown Prince. I smiled bitterly as I remembered it. I envy myself in the past. So many people love and care for him. Inversely with me in the future.
"Your Majesty..." The call from Uncle Hong Li was not heeded. I am still faithful in my daydreams.
"Your Majesty... Teacher Feng Ying has already come wanting to meet you." But there was no answer from my mouth. I was lost in my own world.
"Your Majesty... Oh, my God, what's wrong with you exactly?. Why do you like daydreaming lately?." Even Uncle Hong Li's fussiness didn't make me realize.
"Your Majesty..." With a pity Uncle Hong Li is still trying to call me.
I laughed with a bitter taste in it. Making Uncle Hong Li and teacher Feng Ying stare strangely at me. I turned my eyes to the window next to me. The afternoon is beautiful. But I can't treat the wounds in my heart. I miss my parents, but on the other hand my heart still holds all the bad memories that happened to me.
Elsewhere Lien Hua was also grieving and crying silently while staring at the beautiful afternoon sky. He smiled wistfully at the twilight that was so enchanting but inversely proportional to his feelings.
