The rest of the day went well. When it was evening, I decided to visit the emperor and tell him about prince Edward's choice. If grandmother reaches there before me, our plan will fail.
He was waiting for me at the terrace. I got there and bowed. He was happy to see me. We hugged and I rested in his arms. Grandmother was going to make her move very soon. I had to tell the Emperor before it was too late.
"Your highness, I have something important to tell you," I said, breaking away from the hold. It was a serious matter. Things might not end well for us.
"Go ahead, Queen Ariadne" The Emperor urged me. "What do you wish to tell me?"
"It's about prince Edward" I began. "He has fallen in love with one of the women in the harem."
"Then, it's a good thing" He smiled. "Love is a good feeling. Who is this lucky concubine?"
