Chapter 398 A long-lost reunion hug
In the evening, Caesar's Palace.
Shikoti, who returned to the main space, avoided all the patrolling royal guards and entered the queen's bedroom.
Although the itinerary for "Land of the Last Battle" was only three days, Shikoti, who came back here again, felt as if he had passed away.
She took off the dusty, even worn hunting jacket, hesitated for a moment, instead of throwing it into the "old clothes basket", she stuffed it into her backpack and prepared to take it away later.
To do a play is to do a full set.
Since she left without telling everyone, and since she declared that she was "accompanied by her mother who was unwell", she would not leave behind a dusty old dress, making people wonder what she had done.
After cleaning her body and putting on the long-lost black-bottomed gilt-patterned dress, the newly refreshed eldest daughter of the emperor tidied up her appearance in the bathroom, and slowly corrected the sharp eyebrows and eyes that were slightly sharp due to the rush to fight, allowing herself to recover To the usual "elegant princess" state.
In addition, she also found a small glass bottle in the bathroom, tied a rope around the mouth of the bottle and hung it around her neck to shelter the little carp that left with her.
...a really small one.
The "egg of a carp" is only as big as a sesame seed. How big can a baby carp hatch from it be?
Anyway, for Shikoti, she had to hold it on her fingertips and squint her eyes towards the sun to see that there was still a little life there.
Because it is so small, this young carp has not even grown the white fine scales of its parents, and its whole body is slightly transparent, fluttering its wings in the wind like a bug.
It hugs the 3.8-carat diamond that Shikoti gave her, just like hugging a huge mountain, making Shikoti very worried that it will be crushed to death accidentally...
However, the small size of the juvenile carp is also good. She can just find a small bottle for it and carry it with her. She doesn't have to bother explaining the origin of this strange and extraordinary creature—they won't notice it anyway.
When Skoti walked out of the room, her father and queen were still awake.
The queen mother had her usual gentle and quiet smile on her lips, but her eyes seemed helpless when she looked at her; while the emperor father sat on the lacquered sandalwood chair, his face was calm like a sculpture under the half-lit night light.
Skoti was a little nervous—because she persuaded her mother to act as an "accomplice" when she left, but she didn't let her always rigid father know.
At this moment, there is a feeling that the rebellious girl Qiaojia is being caught by her father.
Looking at each other, her father spoke first: "Are you back?"
"Ah."
"went well?"
"It went well."
"The excuse of 'asking for leave' is not bad, but if someone digs into it, it is still full of flaws." Father said in a calm tone.
Shikoti raised his head.
For example, the serious words, the words that her father said surprised her even more.
She thought she would be severely reprimanded for her rebellious behavior, just like seeing her wearing inappropriate clothes and saying inappropriate words.
But unexpectedly, her father didn't seem to object so much.
"I'll take care of it," Scotti said.
So the royal father slowly loosened his furrowed brows.
Few people know that among the direct members of the Nishizawa royal family, it was not the princes and daughters who once resisted the tradition the most, but the current Emperor Nishizawa.
When he was young, Emperor Nishizawa wanted to be an astronaut and go to the sky to see the blue world.He prepared for this for a long time, and even went against the tradition to apply for the Imperial Academy of Astronautics, where he graduated with the first overall score.
But then what stood in front of him was a huge resistance that he had never thought of - even if he had such a dazzling transcript and diploma, no aerospace department dared to accept the future Emperor Caesar.
All the resumes he submitted fell silent, the officials in charge pretended to be deaf and dumb in front of a secret order from the cabinet, and the teacher with the best relationship with him closed the door on him after disclosing some information cryptically.
In the end, all the resistance, all the struggles, all the cries turned into nothingness, just like a colorful soap bubble that will always be pierced one day, like a rebellious wanderer who always inherits the family when his father grows old Industry.
The boy who wanted to become an astronaut was finally killed by all his dreams and bound to a false honor.
He became the old-fashioned and knowledgeable Emperor Nishizawa in the eyes of outsiders. He squatted in the palace every day to study historical materials. Courtesy signatures on various documents - tossed to Shikoti.
No one knew what he was thinking.
He closed his heart early and acted more and more like an Emperor Caesar who satisfied the world. Even his wife and daughter had difficulty getting close to the real him.
Only at this moment, Shikoti seems to have caught a glimpse of the real him from under his heavy shell.
From the bottom of his heart, he wanted...his children to have a life of their own.
Shikoti lowered his eyes and smiled.
She stepped forward, opened her arms, and gave her father and queen a long-lost hug.
……
After learning the news that Shikoti was coming back, Shikoti's clerk was already waiting for her at the gate of the palace.
When the figure of Shikoti appeared, this highly educated woman who was trained by the royal etiquette officer bowed meticulously and said hello: "Good evening, Your Highness."
"Good evening, Alice."
"How is Her Majesty's health?"
"It's all right."
"Thank you for the glorious protection of the ancestors...Your Highness, are you busy these days?"
"A little bit."
"Your Highness, please pay attention to your health."
"I will."
Having said that, Alice still has slight doubts in her heart.
Because in the past three days, Skoti claimed to be "accompanying the mother who is unwell", but in fact she was in a state of complete loss of contact. She did not answer the phone and did not return messages, even the greetings sent by Alice. Reply - This has never happened before.
However, Alice asked the medical officer in the palace on the sidelines, but found that Her Royal Highness had no records of medical consultations in recent days, and no report of physical discomfort; I don't know anything about it - I heard that it was a special holiday granted to her by Her Royal Highness the Queen a few days ago, just the day before Shikoti proposed to visit her mother.
This series of doubts and coincidences made Alice involuntarily have some doubts: Is His Royal Highness Shikoti Caesar, who has not heard from her in the past three days, really in the palace?
