Chapter 12 - The palace

The maid hesitated "P-Palace . How can I talk about the palace ".

Sara was able to understand that she cannot talk recklessly about the palace and it's people but she wanted to know " Just tell me it's not like anyone is hearing . "

The maid come a little bit close to her and say in a low voice "Ok Miss. The palace is situated in the middle of kingdom . It is very difficult to get entry at the palace but few years ago I used to work there. It is full of mystery and politics. "

Sara got very interested "This kind of things definitely happens at a typical palace . So tell me how many people lives there. "

"Lots of people live there, it's like a fair . But if we have to talk about the Royal Family, then the king, First Queen , Third Queen and Twin princes. "

A question came in her mind "But what about Prince Veer? Why does he live outside the palace? "

The maid hesitated to answer this " I think it's not right for me to talk about this. "

Sara give a sad pout "But I have to know about him. I am living in his place, what if he is a bad person. By any chance, was he thrown out of the palace? "

"No- no -no . Our prince is a very nice person and always makes king happy . It cannot happen. "

"Then tell me. "She insisted.

" Actually Prince veer and his mother do not share a good relationship . First queen is trying to make his son a king by using all the means. But prince veer don't like the dirty politics of the palace and he don't like how his mother is trying to defame prince arjun in front of the king. That's why he stay away from the palace. "

"Ok. So he never goes to palace? "

"He visit the palace, when king asks for him. "

"By the way, Prince Arjun is the first prince right ? "

"Yes miss. "

"What kind of person he is? "

"He is a very kind person. Among all the princes in the kingdom and outside the kingdom, he is said to be the most knowledgeable. He has studied numerous books and vedas. He is also a very gentle person , and that's why he is very popular among all the princess. "

"He is handsome? "

"Yes miss. "

"Then girls will definitely go crazy for him . He looks like a perfect package. What kind of relationship he shares with prince veer?"

"Not so good? "

"Why ? "

Maid whisper in her ear "Because there is a rumour that First queen planned the murder of second queen . "

Her eyes widened in shock "What really? But why? "

"Actually first queen was jealous of second queen. Second queen was the first love of king. But he was not able to marry her because she was a daughter of defense minister. And according to custom he has to marry a princess first. First queen was selected as his bride when they were very young because she was a princess from a very powerful kingdom. But even after marriage king was not able to accept her as his wife. And soon he married the second queen. As he used to spend more time with the second queen , she became pregnant before the first queen. Prince Arjun born and after 5 months prince veer born. And it was very unacceptable for First queen as she was the first wife and the princess of a powerful kingdom. She wanted all the power in the palace including the power of becoming the First Prince's mother. She was not happy as she lost to a minister's daughter. "
