After hearing that the first prince would return, Reisa hurriedly prepared to go to the palace. Luckily because just yesterday she went to the palace so she knew the palace paths by heart, the palace guards also still recognized Reisa so it was easy for her to get permission to enter the palace.
"I heard that the first prince has just entered the palace after a long time, do you know where I can find him?"
The guard thought for a while after remembering that the woman in front of him was one of the candidates for the prince's wife and decided to allow this woman enter the palace, especially that this was not the first time the prince had 'fans' and the first prince never blamed the guard for letting a stranger woman enter his palace.
"He should have recently come and still in audience room with the king, if Lady would, I can take you to the first prince's palace."
"Thank you. I shall take your offer."
Reisa had just walked into the palace until she saw the blonde haired man walking very fast towards her, he seemed to be in a hurry.
'Crown Prince?!' at that moment the crown prince also saw Reisa, and he slowed down his steps. If only he didn't have to worry about ethics, maybe right now Allen would run towards the palace hall after hearing that his brother was going to be in an arranged marriage.
Arranged marriage or political marriage was common among aristocrats. Allen also had an arranged marriage with Elisabeth since he was seven years old and it's a strange thing that his brother was still not married or had a candidate until he was twenty-five years old, but after the incident a few days ago, every incident involving his brother give Allen headache, futhermore his brother had also stated that he already likes someone, the same sex and I know Imperial father will be mad after hearing my brother's statement. Allen couldn't stay still so he rushed to the meeting hall to help his brother.
"I greet the blessing of the night, His Highness the Crown Prince."
In front of Allen stood a red-haired woman, she didn't have much time so Allen only gave a short answer 'En' before he walk in long stride again.
Seeing the crown prince who walk hurriedly Reisa's gaze immediately blurred. before her was a scene where the first prince who came out of the audience hall with injured forehead and the crown prince who was about to enter the hall. the scene felt far away but from her sight it could be seen that they were fighting or rather the first prince got mad at the crown prince.
Reisa felt strange after the sight disappeared, replaced by the crown prince's back who began to move away. however Reisa felt that she better not ignore it. Reisa is a little hesitant because what she is facing is the crown prince, a little mistake can be fatal even though the crown prince is knows to be kindhearted.
When Reisa felt she needed something so that the crown prince didn't go to the meeting hall, Reisa caught a glimpse of Lady Elisabeth's presence in the queen's palace. Reisa's brain seemed to work quickly to unite the dots and find a way, she immediately following the crown prince.
"Excuse me, Your Highness. I want to convey a massage that Lady Elisabeth is looking for you." Allen immediately stopped, saw the crown prince hesitated, Reisa gave a little more push.
"Looks like Lady Elisabeth wants to convey something important. Currently Lady Elisabeth is waiting in the palace of the Queen's Majesty." Allen turned around and made Reisa surprised so she immediately bowed his head.
"Thank you."
Allen changed direction, he thought if Elisabeth had anything important to say maybe it was related to the events of that day. On second thought, even if Allen left now he could not help much, especially he could not fight his own mother that made Allen even more sullen.
Meanwhile Reisa didn't know that her lie was something that really happened in the real timeline. Elisabeth waited for Allen and the Queen to tell about the first prince suspicious actions.
After the crown prince left, Reisa looked towards the prince's palace or meeting hall several times. She looked at the guard that left behind
"Thank you for taking me here, I can go alone."
Reisa pretended to go to the first prince's palace until there were no people then she turned towards the meeting hall secretly.
...
In the queen's residence, the ruby palace. After asking several palace maids, Allen finally found Elisabeth who was drinking tea alone in a rose garden.
"Lizzy I heard you want to tell me something important, what's wrong?"
"Al? You look so messy."
"Yes, I wanted to catch up with brother in audience hall, but turned around because you called me."
"I did want to say something to you but it was nothing important to make you run here."
Allen sat in front of Elisabeth, took the drink prepared by the maid.
"Didn't you ask a lady to call me?"
"A Lady? I never asked anyone to call you here."
-CLACK
Elisabeth put down the teacup with force.
"You don't recognize the girl?"
"I've never seen her before in Capital."
Now that Allen think about it, he remember all of Noble lady in capital but he didn't know that Lady.
"For a country Noble to come to capital in this time only means that girl is one of the candidates for your brother's marriage. Even though it is only a candidate but she is brave enough to steal a start. As I thought all the women who approached our dear brother are all inappropriate."
"..."
Allen wanted to say something but in the end he chose to change the subject.
"Lizzy, what do you have to say?"
What Elizabeth wants to convey is actually about their wedding preparations, royal weddings are generally prepared by parents and women as housekeepers, but at the last stage they still need help from men, especially things such as dowries, wedding installments and wedding dresses. Their engagement has been going on for a long time and their wedding is scheduled to be soon, their wedding preparations have also been going on for a year. It's just that many unexpected things happened, especially in the letter she recieved from the queen, most likely their wedding will be held at the same time as their brother's wedding because of the king's decree.
Elisabeth shook her head. She is a little disappointed that she has to share her special day with someone else. It's not like the state treasury lacks money to hold separate marriages, but it looks like the king is pressed to immediately tie up brothers in this country.
"I'll tell you later, for now let's go to Big Brother and see what kind of woman who tricked you to come here."
