"Yes, His Majesty once said that if anything happens, he will hand over this item to Lady Lycia."

After speaking, Phanias left the room.

Then he handed Licia a letter.

"Your Majesty entrusted this to me after he fell ill." Fanias said, "Your Majesty said that it will be handed over to Lady Lycia when she dies."

"Although His Majesty is still building it, since His Majesty himself said so."

Could this be the king's last words to Licia?

Licia stared at the letter with a complicated face, showing a sad smile.

"I didn't expect that I would use this form to read my father's last words. Although it is a sad thing, it is already supreme happiness that my father will leave words for me."

Licia opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.

Li Le and Fanias watched silently from the side, and Lycia carefully read the letter.

"This, what is this?" Licia's expression gradually became serious, and by the time she finished reading the letter, her face was already full of sadness.

"Phanas?"

"What are your orders?"

"This is the only thing your father gave you?"

"Just this letter."

"Impossible! Phanias, find me quickly."

Licia suddenly shouted sharply.

"Lord Lycia, please calm down, this is the last letter entrusted by His Majesty the King, it is absolutely true."

"That letter should have written His Majesty's true intentions."

Chapter 317

"It's annoying." Licia's expression changed drastically: "No, these can't be the last words of my father, Phanias, are you trying to lie to me?"

Tears welled up in Lycia's eyes.

"Never mind."

"Who would believe it? Ever since you married Lord Balut's daughter, you have been courting him. Do you think I didn't notice?"

"Anyway, you think I'm an eyesore, so please explain to me."

"Lord Lycia!"

Phanias' deep voice shook the air in the entire room.

The situation is on the verge of breaking out.

"Both of you, please calm down, Lady Licia, have you forgotten who strengthened the defense here?"

"I, I don't." The furious Licia said halfway, turning her face away. ,

The only sound in the room was her heavy breathing.

"Today, I'm leaving." Fanias glanced at Li Le.

S Lile nodded.

After Phanias left, the room fell into silence for a while.

"Calm down?"

"Hmm." Licia replied disappointedly.

"What was written in the letter?"

"Do you want to hear it?"

"if convenient."

"Hmph, you really are."

"What's wrong."

"It's nothing, nothing." Licia shook her head feebly: "It says that a king must love his people like a son, and he must be mentally prepared for how to act as a king. There are only a few things written in the letter, and I was tired of listening to it before. The cliché of Fanias."

"Is that really all there is?"

Only these words, she will not be like this.

Licia fell silent, and she said in a mosquito-like voice, "I also wrote that I am a child born of an adulterous relationship between a mother and an unknown man."

"However, my status will not be shaken. In the name of the king, I will be officially recognized as the next heir."

That's how it was, Li Le's heart felt bitter.

"Does that mean that the letter will be proof of the succession to the throne?"

Licia's face was contorted.

"I don't care anymore, I don't want my father to recognize my status, I just hope he likes me, as long as he says that to me, I'm satisfied.

"But even last words are such a thing."

She tossed the letter aside, her fists shaking with rage.

"I am not the child of my father, and I am not qualified to enjoy father's love. I have known this kind of thing for a long time."

Licia spoke with tears in her eyes.

"It was the same when I gave him the flower crown. At that time, what kind of mood did the father look at me?"

"He must be laughing at my ignorance and stupidity. I am surprised by my stupid face."

This is the first time I heard that this should be an unpleasant memory between her and her father.

When I met Lycia, she said she hated flowers.

It's rare for a girl to hate flowers, so there must be a connection.

"Even if my father doesn't tell me, I still know." Licia said, "Why did he specify everything in the final letter, why?"

"I just want ordinary happiness, isn't that all right?"

Licia's burden was too heavy, but no one could do it for her.

"I can't make it easier for you. Everyone has problems that they have to solve on their own."

For example, it's like being bound by an agreement between your brothers.

Avoidance is never the answer.

I have also denied my brother several times in the following life.

But the words he left behind have not disappeared.

Not only did he not disappear, every time I deny him, it will make my heart hurt.

On the surface it seems to have disappeared, but in fact it is still inside the body.

"Sorry for worrying you." Licia wiped her tears.

"I'm not worried about you."

"It's such a time, you're still so ruthless."

"Gentleness won't do you any good."

Li Le picked up the letter she had thrown on the ground and put it on the table.

"You idiot, then leave me alone for a while."

Licia wiped her tear-stained face and showed a tired smile.

the other side.

It was already late at night, and Phanias was not sleepy at all. He was waving his wooden sword in the courtyard.

He expected the Sandman to be exchanged for such an empty swing.

Recalling Lady Lycia's expression after reading His Majesty's letter, Fanias couldn't help sighing.

What was written in that letter, he could probably figure out a thing or two.

It is impossible for His Majesty, whom I know so well, to say what she wishes to Lady Licia.

Lady Lycia blindly believes in the Majesty that Duke Barut fabricated.

If Lady Lycia is unwilling to believe the contents of the letter in the future and chooses to believe in the phantom created by Lord Balut.

To whom should I swear allegiance?His Majesty entrusted the princess to himself.

I was ordered to teach Lady Lycia the ability to become an excellent king, no matter how much she cried.

Xiang Licia-sama is also for this purpose.

However, so far no results have been borne.

Suddenly, Li Le's words rang in his ears.

"Isn't Lord Balut making Lady Licia have strange ideas?"

Fanias certainly knew that this city was now being controlled by Duke Balut.

It can't go on any longer. It's the most ideal and the most reasonable for Lady Licia to get started early.

But it's hard to expect the current Licia-sama to do this.

Lady Lycia has not yet realized His Majesty's true meaning.

And these days the nobles are just about to move.

Although I want to wait and see what happens until Licia-sama grows up, I'm afraid I don't have the time.

Phanias swung the wooden sword, and the flowing sweat splashed all over his skin.

"You are here."

"Did it wake you up?"

The wife of Phanias approached.

"No, I just want to blow the night breeze." She smiled softly.

When His Majesty was still alive, His Majesty recommended him to marry the daughter of Prince Barut.

Say you think too much?

His wife handed him the towel as if nothing had happened.

Although she may be a little too young for her, she cannot live up to His Majesty's painstaking efforts.

However, after they were both married, Phanias found that she was actually a very clever and interesting woman.

Perhaps, His Majesty foresaw that he would fall ill, so he made such painstaking efforts in order not to put himself in a dangerous situation.

Now, Phanias has long forgotten that his wife is the woman of Duke Balut, and loves her from the bottom of his heart.

"What's bothering you?"

"No."

"Hehe, even if you don't tell me, I'll know, my husband is not good at lying."

"Really." It seemed impossible to lie to his wife, she seemed to have the ability to read her own mind.

However, this ability is mainly used to take care of your own cover.

"Actually, I have something to tell my husband."

"You say it."

"A few days ago, thanks to the doctor who diagnosed me, I know."

"Doctor, is there something wrong with your body?"

Phanias dropped his wooden sword and grabbed his wife by the shoulders.

"No, it's not like that."
