Moonlight Love Poem

"Before you wanted Auston and Campbell to marry, why don't you ask the Duke of Campbell's opinion now?" The crown prince stopped the conversation between him and the emperor about the flying beast, and started talking about it.

I stopped the meaningless thinking in my head and looked up.

The emperor took a deep breath, and his eyes shifted to me: "What is there to say? Campbell, don't you want to?"

I looked at the emperor and calmly said: "I don't want to, Your Majesty. It's not that there is anything wrong with His Highness the Second Prince, it's just that I'm not good enough for him. Please think again."

The emperor's face became more gloomy, and anger flashed across his face. He said in a low voice, "Campbell, are you trying to call me ridiculous?"

Princess Marlene raised her eyes, her face was clearly sizing up, and her eyes were so burning that I couldn't ignore it.

"...That's not the case, Your Majesty." I bowed my head, avoiding the eyes of the two above.

The crown prince said again: "Your Majesty, since Campbell and Auston are unwilling, and the Duke of Campbell has been proven innocent, can this engagement be cancelled?"

"That's enough," the emperor said with a gloomy face. He slapped the throne heavily, and the words he said couldn't be refuted: "Aldrich, I'm not old yet! It's not your turn to question me now."

"Ansel Campbell. That's how your engagement with Auston is concluded. You stay in the imperial capital while Auston reflects on himself, and the wedding will be held after he finishes introspecting!"

There was silence in the hall, my brows twitched, and I really wanted to say something, but the current situation was obviously not suitable, and speaking out would only anger the emperor.I bit my lip hard, resisting the urge to speak.

The sword lying on the ground came into my sight, and with a jump in my heart, I recognized that it was the sword that Austen was carrying on his body.

What kind of situation could make Auston drop his sword?The marriage contract cannot be changed in a short period of time. Maybe I can take advantage of this joking marriage contract to see the situation of Auston.Being imprisoned in the high tower prison by his father, as a prince, he should not be hurt, but he will never feel better.

Thinking of this, I asked aloud: "Your Majesty, since the engagement cannot be changed, can you let me go and see Auston?"

The emperor hesitated for a while, then nodded: "Go."

I saluted His Majesty again, turned around and walked out.

The crown prince watched Ansair's back walking out of the hall in silence, and frowned slightly.

Because the emperor solved the matter, he was resting with his eyes closed, and did not see the crown prince's movements.

"Anyway...it doesn't matter." The crown prince said silently, and the expression on his face became relaxed.

The appearance of the high tower prison is no different from what I remember. It is still a quaint tower with dark gray bricks. Green vines and moss wrap around the tower. When opening the door, I can still feel the fragility of the door and dare not use force.

I stepped on the steps, which were covered with moss, and I could see cobwebs even when I looked up.

"Auston?" I used my sword to push aside the spider web and went up to the first floor.

No one responded, so I sighed and continued to walk up.

When I got to the top floor, I finally got a response.

"Oston?" I followed the answering voice and opened the door of a certain cell.

Oston stood inside, and when he saw me, his expression was a bit startled. I first looked at the condition of the cell: Although it was not clean, there were no rats crawling over in groups as I imagined, and Xue Yin was also inside. , I was very happy to see me and flew over, and threw myself into my arms.

"Karimo." I touched Xue Yin's back, looked up at Auston, "...what's going on?"

Auston turned his head, his black hair was a little messy, and his smooth side face was exposed. He lowered his eyes: "Your Majesty still called you back."

Even my appearance here is the result of agreeing to the marriage contract with Auston.I pursed my lips, trying to comfort him, but couldn't find anything to say.

"How did you get to this point?" I asked him dryly.

Alston briefly talked about the process, but he still didn't want to turn his head to look at me.

"Aren't you willing to face your fellow inmates?" I whispered, seeing Oston turn his head immediately, his face darkened.

"How could he lock you in?" Oston frowned, his expression was displeased, his fists were clenched, and he was about to come over.

"Finally willing to see me?" I looked directly at him, "Your Majesty didn't imprison me, I came here by myself. Auston, you didn't feel sorry for me, but I am sorry for you."

Alston looked at me, silent.

"You were angered by the emperor because you spoke for me...it's my fault." I sighed, "But His Majesty seems to be determined about the engagement, so he had to agree first, I'm sorry."

"It's not your fault, don't blame yourself."

I stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "There is always a way."

I stayed with Auston for a while in the Tower Prison, and then returned to the Duke's House.

But when I got home, the butler told me that my brother had gone to Archibald's appointment and hadn't come back yet.

I thought of the prince's many fiancées and Xue Ye who kept pestering me to dance that time, and felt that it was very dangerous for my brother to go out with him alone, not to mention not coming back at such a late hour.

Just when I was about to go out to find my brother, the guard at the door came to inform that the crown prince from a neighboring country had sent someone over and wanted to see me.

When I went out, I saw a brown-haired man, also wearing the revealing clothes of neighboring countries, who seemed to be one of the crown prince's many entourages.

"Good evening, Your Excellency Duke Rose, the Crown Prince sent me to deliver a message to you. Your elder brother, Your Excellency Cyril, will temporarily stay at His Highness's side tonight, please rest assured."

"No." I said coldly, "Syril needs to return to the Duke's Mansion tonight."

The man looked embarrassed: "But, I'm just a messenger, and I can't change His Highness's mind."

I always feel that he is delaying the time, and my brother might be abducted to bed by some crown prince if he is later. My brother had a good impression of Archibald before, not to mention that he saved him at the hunting feast last time. Cyril.

"I'll go and talk to him myself." The man came in a carriage, and following him should be able to find Archibald.I asked the steward to bring my sword, and took it in my hand, ready to force my way into the carriage.

"No, Your Excellency!" the man said anxiously, reaching out his hand to stop me, "Your Highness will scold me, you can't go with a sword!"

I had someone stop him and stepped into the carriage first.

"This sword won't be aimed at him." Seeing his obvious hesitation, I became a little impatient, "I will always find the place where your Highness lives, within the empire, and I will not disrespect His Highness the Crown Prince. "

He finally moved, sat in and let the coachman drive.It's just far away from me.

I didn't want to chat with him either. After the driver stopped the car, I followed him into the place where the crown prince of the neighboring country lived.Watching him knock on the door, telling the people inside that Duke Rose is coming.

After the door opened, the first thing I saw was Archibald, the prince of the neighboring country who was smiling. His eyes stopped on my face for a moment, and his tall figure blocked my view of looking in.

"Good evening, Your Excellency Qiangwei. You are still shining like a jewel." Archibald smiled, "Are you worried about Cyril?"

"Good evening, Your Highness. My brother is relatively weak, and I don't worry about him staying out alone at such a late hour. Even if he lives with you, it's enough to worry me." I greeted hypocritically, and then Expressed to him that I want to take my brother away.

He turned sideways and let me in: "Thinking of leaving tomorrow, I still want to have a long talk with Your Excellency Cyril all night, but if it is you, there is no way, please come in."

My brother stood up a long time ago, and when he saw me coming in, he called me happily.

"Yeah." I approached him, as if unharmed.He was still holding a heavy book in his hand, and the name could not be seen.

"It's good that you're fine, brother." I asked, "I didn't expect you to be with this Highness, and I was surprised when I found out that you weren't coming back."

My brother smiled and handed me the book in his hand: "I can't help it. I had such a happy chat that I didn't want to leave. Archibald is really a knowledgeable person. I got a lot of new books from him. Knowledge."

The person who was praised said: "It is my honor, and it is also a great pleasure to meet you."

I didn't see the name of the book clearly, but it's not surprising that Archibald is knowledgeable. As the crown prince, being proficient in everything is the foundation.

"Brother, let's go." I raised my head and handed the book back to him. When I saw his expression clearly, I was stunned. He looked straight at me with a somewhat strange expression.It seemed that he was very excited after learning about some important event but refrained from talking about it. I was surprised by the chill just now.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me brother?" I asked.

But he shook his head: "nothing, let's go."

"...Okay." I turned to Crown Prince Archibald, who was looking at us with folded arms, and I saluted him, "Your Highness, don't bother me. We will leave first .”

"Do you need me to have someone send you away?"

"Thank you." Originally, I also came with their people, and I didn't know how to go back.

He turned around to open the door, and said a few words to the person standing by the door: "Please wait a moment."

The author says:

Sorry I'm so weak...
