In the west wing, Albert was lying in bed when he heard a knock on the door, followed by Edward's voice saying, "Your Highness is with me an order from His Majesty the Emperor.

Albert replied in a tired, sharp voice, echoing in his ear: "Come in.

Edward came in and said, "Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

Albert responded quickly: Get right to the point.

Edward said, "By order of His Majesty the Emperor, you must go on a hunting trip if you wish to give up the position of crown prince."

Albert answered briefly, "Well, get out now.

Edward said, "Good day, Prince Albert."

Albert got up from his bed and went to the bathroom. There, he took a quick and refreshing shower, and then came out of the bathroom after he had recovered. The service bell rang, and as soon as the maid came quickly, she said in a respectful voice, "Yes, Your Majesty, do you command me anything?"

Albert spoke in a more attentive tone than before, and his voice sounded colder, so he asked her to bring me the usual tea.

The maid replied with respect: "Yes, Your Majesty.

After a few minutes, the maid returned with the teapot. Albert took a cup of tea and went to the window to see the servants outside as they arranged the fishing carts. He leaned on the edge of the window and exhaled a deep sigh, then turned his gaze towards the crown prince's uniform, which was next to the desk. He put his cup of tea on the table and began to stare at the uniform carefully, as he passed his long fingers into his golden hair, which resembled the color of golden sunlight. He sighed again, then began to wear the crown prince's uniform, and then walked out of the room.

In the afternoon, Julia was lying under one of the huge trees not far from her home. As she tried to take a short nap, she noticed the sound of horses and wagons approaching her. She quickly became anxious, so she rose from her place and accelerated her steps towards the big tree to climb it. Meanwhile, Julia kept talking to herself, "Why are they here now?" They weren't supposed to be here this afternoon, so why are they here so early? How am I going to go home now?

While Julia was sitting on a tree branch, several horses and chariots carrying nobles passed before her. Unfortunately, these nobles decided to spend the night near the tree and Julia's house. When Julia realized this, she thought to go down and visit her grandfather. But as soon as she decided to go down, someone came and sat under the tree she was in. Julia nodded her head and her questions were growing about the identity of this person. Who is he? She wondered to herself. It was clear that she thought the nobles were bragging and disrespectful to the general public, and seeing that person sitting on the dirty floor was surprising to her, as she often thought they would not accept going down to this level of life.

Julia kept staring at the man sitting under the tree, where he was blocking her from going down. The man's features were not clear; he put on a hat and his face was tilted to the ground. Even if his features were clear, Julia would not have known him; her knowledge of nobility is limited, and her social circle is very small.

As time went on, Julia began to feel hopeful, as a three-day hunting contest kicked off. This means that the man sitting under the tree will have to leave the place, which will enable her to descend freely.

Julia's frustration resurfaced after all the others decided to embark on the hunt, with only a few nobles and servants left. In addition, there was a man sitting under the tree, which prevented Julia from coming down.

Half an hour later, that man made the decision to leave. When he got up, Julia resisted impulsively and quickly stood up, causing her to lose balance and fall. Julia closed her eyes as she waited to feel the impact on the ground, but felt no pain. As she slowly opened her eyes, she discovered that she was in Albert's arms, who managed to catch her before she fell to the ground. When Albert looked into Julia's eyes, there was a wave of calm and tranquility, as if the world around him had vanished. He could only hear the sounds of birds and water, and a sense of relief occupied the place of exhaustion he had previously felt.

Albert remained immersed in Julia's beautiful eyes, holding her tightly, refusing to take her away from him. But his joy did not last long, as Julia's shy voice interrupted him, saying, "Please, put me down, sir." Her voice was sweet and tender, which made him wish to hear more from her. After listening to her words, Albert gently lowered it. As soon as she laid her feet on the ground, she quickly set off for her home. Albert laughed to himself, Julia was like a rabbit running from the claws of a wolf.
