The Great Queen Mau Lewat
Chapter 258 Side story (A Guang story)
" You didn't go home? " A Guang asked Na Li who was still silent without packing her clothes.
A Guang tidied up the item he wanted to bring home. Tomorrow is the birthday party of his two twin sisters, Sima Feng and Sima Fei. Their birthday is actually two weeks away. But due to the request of A Fei who wanted to celebrate his birthday party together with prince wei, the event was finally accelerated.
" no. I'll stay in the dorm. "
" really? isn't it boring staying in a hostel while the other friends are back home? "
" Not really. Their departure gives them peace of mind and I like it quite a bit. " Say Na li reasoned.
Actually A Guang wanted to ask why the woman had never once returned home. But he was disinclined, and felt it was not his territory to interfere. So A Guang just nodded in understanding.
Junyi who was in charge of picking up A Guang was already prepared in front of the academy gates.
" Uncle Junyi, actually you don't have to pick me up. I can go home by myself. " Say A Guang while handing over the goods to junyi.
" You always say the same words, Your Majesty. But when I'm late, you're always waiting for me. So instead of me not coming and letting you wait all day, I'd better keep picking you up. " Said Junyi reminded her young master.
A Guang was misbehaved being reminded of something that was enough to embarrass him.
" Ahem. Already have. Let's go walk. " A Guang ended the conversation that brought up the absurdity. Hurry up into the train car.
A Guang's carriage arrived at the palace. All the preparations for the banquet made all the servants seem busy.
" You have arrived, my son. " Ziyan welcomed A Guang's arrival with a hug.
Even though they met a week ago. Still, Ziyan missed his eldest son so much.
" Mom I miss you. " Said A Guang replying to the mother's embrace.
" How was your trip? "
" Mom, your question is like I just came from far away. I just came back from the academy instead of from the neighboring kingdom. "alloh A Guang.
He knew that what his mother meant was not really about his trip but about the life of the academy after the events of last week.
" Mom take it easy, everything is safe. I'm sure during the week, the two men must have felt the consequences of his actions. "
Ziyan nodded in satisfaction.
The arrival of the waiter who brought snacks for the two made the conversation pause for a moment.
" Thank you. You guys can get out. " Ziyan's orders.
After all the servants left. Ziyan reopened her voice.
"You've prepared gifts for your two sisters. " Tanya ziyan suddenly.
A Guang's body suddenly stiffened. The cake she was holding fell. Her mother's question made her realize that she had forgotten something important.
A Feng might not blame him, but in contrast to A Fei, who would bend his face if he forgot the gift for her and severely refused to speak for days.
Once A Guang forgot the gift for his little sister. And after that, the girl silenced him completely not to ask him to talk. After a great effort A Guang put in to persuade A Fei. He finally managed to break it. Only then did he know that for A Fei the gift had meaning as a form of attention from his family members. So no matter the value of the gift, the most important thing is its sincerity.
" You don't have to answer. From your reaction, I already know that you forgot about it. "
A Guang only grimaced to hear the mother's words so striking right pierced his heart.
" Mom, I just haven't prepared it yet doesn't mean I've forgotten it. I plan on going to the capital after this. " A Guang reasoned.
" It's good that you don't forget. Do not let the incident happen again. "
A Guang fused his index finger and thumb into a circle as a sign of okay.
*******
A Guang stared at the shop nanar in front of him.
As promised to her mother. He will not forget the gift for his brother. That is why he is currently in front of the largest accessories store in the capital.
" uncle. Can you come in and buy me some accessories. Look at! how can I enter if there's a sea of women there. Wouldn't my arrival be very contrasting and attention-grabbing. " Adu A Guang's.
" Of course it's different. If I were to enter, then it is certain that the views of the women there will turn into hungry gazes like wild animals that are ready to pounce on their prey. Whereas if uncle comes in, I'm pretty sure that no one will look at uncle. " Obviously Sima Guang who succeeded in making a nosebleed because he was upset.
Knowing all the reasons will be useless. Junyi could only use the name A Fei.
" Your highness. I have no problem getting in and buying you accessories. But if the princess gets to know that the gift given to her is not your own choosing. I'm sure he'll be very sad. Don't you know for yourself when the most important thing for a princess is her sincerity. "
The shadow of his father's wrath appeared. If he made A Fei cry then both father and A Feng would definitely beat him up.
" It's. Don't you remind me again. All right, I'll go in by myself. " Forced A Guang to enter.
He gulped roughly as he looked at the crowd of women in front of him. Then with very heavy steps walked into the store.
A Guang's breathing seemed to come to a halt as the women's gazes pointed at him. Like a floodlight, he suddenly felt the center of attention. Even his body suddenly froze making his steps stiff like a wooden puppet.
From a distance, Junyi very loudly tried to hold back his laughter.
' It turns out my young master is so innocent. ' Thought.
Without wasting any time, A Guang rushed over to choose accessories that he thought were suitable for A Fei. A silver leaf-shaped accessory.
With his long footsteps he immediately headed for the cashier.
Under the hungry gaze of the woman who was enchanted by A Guang's good looks. He tried to be indifferent despite trembling inwardly. To him they were more terrifying than the bandits he could easily defeat.
When his eyes try to find busy by looking in the other direction. A Guang glimpsed a familiar figure.
' Isn't that Na Li? ' Inner A Guang hesitated.
As he wanted to focus his gaze, a middle-aged lung woman who was behind A Guang patted him on the shoulder.
" Handsome guy, don't you want to pay? look, the person in front of you is done. " Then blink his eyes.
A Guang felt a strange feeling that made his whole body goosebump when he received the woman's blink.
" sorry. " And soon A Guang completed the payment.
I don't want to be in that place any longer. A Guang immediately stepped out.
In front of the exit, A Guang again saw a figure similar to Na li, but in female clothes.
" Is that the real form of Na Li. " Murm A Guang.
Don't want to miss the trail. A Guang immediately followed. Even due to being too focused, A Guang to the point of not hearing the junyi call.
A Guang continued to follow Na li's footsteps until he finally arrived at a sizable pavilion called 'Lianhua'.
" What is this place? " Task A Guang to yourself.
When A Guang wanted to step inside. Someone patted his shoulder.
A Guang flinched and turned his head.
" Uncle junyi? what are you doing here? " Because of being too focused on following Na li, A Guang forgot about Junyi's existence.
" Should I have asked you, Your Majesty? what are you doing here? is it because you are too impatient to forget my existence. "
" I'm already impatient. I want to go inside. I just saw one of my friends come in. Wh why? "
A Guang saw a strange-looking silent reaction.
" You want to go in there? Oh, my goodness, your majesty. If you like these activities do not need to come to this place. You just need to call them and ask them to come to the palace. It's still daytime anyway, even if you're a crown prince.It's inappropriate if you play with them during the day. "
" What do you mean Uncle Junyi? calling them? who do you mean by them? " A Guang still did not understand the direction of the junyi conversation.
" They I mean, of course, the prostitutes. Lianhua is the largest brothel in the capital. "
Both eyes of A Guang were wide. Even his mouth was wide open while looking at the majestic building in front of him.
