King's Regrets
The Eps 60
In the afternoon crown prince Zhang arrived at Yu city, and he went straight to Xia Lian An's house.
"Greetings noble crown prince." Xiao Wei said after opening the gate of Xia Lian An's house.
"Is Miss Xia there, Miss Xiao?" Crown prince Zhang.
"There's a noble one, please. I'll tell miss your arrival."
"All right."
Crown Prince Zhang and his personal bodyguards entered and followed Xiao Wei. They then sat inside Xia Lian An's house, while Xiao Wei went to meet Xia Lian An.
While waiting for Xia Lian An to come, crown prince Zhang walked out and stood near the park.
"Crown prince Zhang?"
Crown Prince Zhang turned his head, he was a little surprised to see the eldest daughter was in Xia Lian An's house. On top of his left foot was wrapped in a cloth.
"Your highness princess, why are you here. And what happened to your foot?" Crown Prince Zhang said after walking up to the eldest daughter.
"My leg was hit by an arrow when I was coming here."
"Even someone dared to hurt the elder brother of the emperor."
"Crown prince Zhang, what are you doing here yourself?"
"Ah, I want to see Miss Xia. After visiting emperor Shun, I came here."
"Crown prince Zhang, I remind you that Lian'er isn't that easy to get. And also the emperor Shun...."
"Your highness princess, I also want to remind you. Currently Miss Xia is no longer the wife of emperor Shun, so please stop to consider her your own sister-in-law. And also, miss Xia would never return with emperor Shun who had hurt her until she felt hurt all the way to her bones."
"Crown prince Zhang, you...."
"Oldest brother, lord Jiang. What are you guys talking about?" Xia Lian An walked over to the two of them.
"We're not talking about anything." Speak the eldest daughter quickly.
Crown Prince Zhang looked at the attitude of the eldest daughter as if she was covering up what the two of them had talked about earlier. Then he smiled.
"Miss Xia, I brought you sweets from the capital. I also brought you some pretty clothes."
"Mr Jiang, you don't have to do that."
"It's okay, miss Xia has given me this bag of fragrances. Of course alu should give something to miss Xia."
Xia Lian An looked at the eldest daughter awkwardly as crown prince Zhang brought up the fragrance pouch he gave.
The eldest daughter looked at the fragrance pouch on the waist of crown prince Zhang, tightly clenched hands, as she knew how to give the pouch to crown prince Zhang, it means that Xia Lian An will indeed never be together with emperor Shun again.
"Ep... Oldest brother, I'll help brother go back to the room to rest." Xia Lian An said breaking that gripping silence.
The eldest daughter just nodded.
"Mr Jiang, you can wait a moment. I'll help the eldest brother first."
"Okay, Miss Xia."
Xia Lian An then held the eldest daughter's arm and swept her into the room.
"Sister better rest, regarding my relationship and that of the emperor's majesty. I really want to bury him."
"Lian'er."
"I'm going out so that brother can rest."
Xia Lian An turned around and left the eldest daughter.
The eldest daughter stared at Xia Lian An's departure desperately.
"I'm sorry mom, I've tried."
In a different room, crown prince Zhang was drinking tea brought by Xiao Wei. While on the other seat were several boxes that crown prince Zhang had brought for Xia Lian An.
"Sir Jiang, why are you bringing so many things for me?" Xia Lian An said after entering the room.
"I don't know which clothes to choose for Miss Xia, all look beautiful."
Xia Lian An exhaled slowly, she did not understand what the crown prince of this Ming country was thinking.
"Master Jiang, what exactly did master Jiang and elder brother talk about earlier?" Xia Lian An asked carefully.
Crown Prince Zhang smiled "Did he not say anything to you, Miss Xia?"
"No." Xia Lian An shook her head.
"He kept calling you Lian'er and treating you like you when he was with Emperor Shun. I just reminded him that what he did was not good. He'll just keep yelling at the past with the calls of brother and sister."
Xia Lian An was silent, actually what crown prince Zhang said was true. But, the eldest daughter had already done a lot of good to Xia Lian An. So he couldn't bear to not let the eldest daughter call him sister.
Crown Prince Zhang stood up and walked up to Xia Lian An then grabbed his hand.
"Miss Xia, you must stand upright on your feet and your own convictions. People who will only tie you to past memories, you shouldn't have to think about it anymore."
"Mr Jiang.."
"I know the princess is very kind to you, but she who always calls you sister will continue to tie you to your past with emperor Shun."
Crown Prince Zhang stroked Xia Lian An's cheeks and looked at the two clear eyes.
"I just don't want the past to keep following the woman I love. Although I don't know if we'll be together or not, but at least I want to let you out of that shadow of pain."
Xia Lian An was silent, she did not know what to do to the eldest daughter who was already very kind to her.
If he forbade the eldest daughter to call him sister again, it would probably hurt the eldest daughter. But if he still let the eldest daughter call him sister, everything that crown prince Zhang told him if he could never escape from the past, would become a reality.
"Miss Xia?"
"I'll think. He's been so good to me anyway."
"I understand."
Crown Prince Zhang looked at Xia Lian An, he was so afraid of losing the woman he loved. He also did not want to, if Xia Lian An kept remembering even dreaming of the treatment of emperor Shun to him first.
Only by releasing Xia Lian An from people related to emperor Shun would crown prince Zhang feel a little calmer. Because at least Xia Lian An would not see emperor Shun on the eldest daughter or younger brother of emperor Shun.
"I'm sorry, let me do a little selfish thing to you. I really don't want you to stay in that memory of the past, Lian'er."
