The Resetting Lady

[91]

06. Referee

Prince Gwiz was the king’s son.

Nothing was more important than that. What Prince Gwiz looked like, how his voice was, and what kind of food he liked, was not that important. Even if he had a hobby of killing people, it was not very important in the face of the fact that he was the king’s son. Of course, what kind of woman he loved was not that important compared to his birth.

“Jim is too old to welcome the new queen.”

The king spoke to his subjects who recommended such a new queen. What he said was not wrong. He left the government, but no new rain. He did not want to make a rival for Prince Gwiz.

“Your Highness, but it’s dangerous to have only one Your Highness. People don’t know when and what will happen.”

Shouldn`t we make a proper law so that it is not dangerous? Isn’t it more dangerous to make more princes in the face of the new rain?”

“No matter how many kings I have, I’m not lacking. Also, it is widely said that Prince Gwizu neglects his studies and covets women’s beauty.”

“So make them compete with each other? Do you mean to put the throne back and send poison and sword between brothers?”

“It’s not like that. But the mere existence of brothers will help us to get things together.”

“Get away. I won’t listen.”

But the servant, who spoke directly to him, also had a blood relationship with the Queen, who was Prince Gwiz’s biological mother. The king stroked his chin. And he called Prince Gwiz himself.

“The future of this country depends on your shoulders. Always be careful.”

“Who has spoken ill of me to Your Majesty?”

“Guise, the king listens to the advice. The fact that such a story is circulating means that there is a problem with your behavior.”

“That doesn’t make sense.”

Prince Gwiz replied in a sullen manner.

The king asked his son, but he didn’t think his words would work for him. Nevertheless, it was better to discipline Prince Gwiz than to create a new prince. It was better to concentrate on one thing and hand over full authority to him than to weed it out among several princes.

“If your actions were so, who would trust and support you?”

“I’m going to be king, and who doesn’t support me?”

The king looked down at his son.

“…….”

침묵이 흘렀다. 귀즈 왕세자는 왕의 눈치를 보더니 무릎을 꿇었다.

“제가 경솔했습니다. 정진하도록 노력하겠습니다.”

약간의 불안감과 의심 속에서 귀즈 왕세자는 자랐다. 오만하다는 평을 들었어도 그는 그럴 위치였고, 학업이 부족하지 않았고 육체 또한 강건했다. 외모 또한 빼어났다. 그가 자라면서 새로운 왕비에 대한 이야기는 자연스럽게 사라졌다. 왕은 늙어갔고 유일한 왕자는 건강했으니 어쩔 도리가 없었다. 가끔은 하인들을 폭행하고, 가끔은 심심풀이로 사냥개들을 죽이고는 했지만, 드러내지는 않았다. 그는 왕 앞에서는 자신을 누를 줄 알았다.

약간은 잔인하고, 약간은 오만한 귀즈 왕세자는 그렇게 자라서 한 여자를 만났다.

“Your Grace, what’s the matter?”

It was in the palace garden full of red roses. Prince Gwiz said, looking down at Catherine in a white dress. Catherine was sitting on a chair in the garden. Because he called it out.

“Katherine, I love you.”

Prince Gwiz thought he loved Catherine. It’s probably because he thinks so. It is meaningless to give meaning to, share, and grade each person’s feelings. But Prince Gwiz was young and wanted Catherine to love him completely.

So Prince Gwiz spoke frankly to the woman he loved in his rose garden. He loves her. That’s an obvious fact.

“But I can’t marry you.”

She doesn’t seem to have expected it. The purple eyes are slightly dimmed.

“…why?”

Catherine asked with her head down quietly. Prince Gwiz was heartbroken in his eyes. But nevertheless, I couldn’t marry her.

“You know that.”

Catherine, you know that. I’m going to be king. And I have to marry a royal family to solidify my throne. Your maternal grandmother is Grand Duchess Catherine, but your mother married the count at least. I love you, but you’re not on my level.

“Your Grace, tell me yourself.”

Catherine raised her head again, and with her eyes, she begged to see Prince Gwiz. His eyes seemed to hope that it was not the reason he thought it was. I feel a little bit sorry to break expectations.

“I have someone to marry. You know that. I was married before I was five years old.”

“But you didn’t even have an engagement.”

“I’m sorry.”

“…don’t you love me?”

It was not. Prince Gwiz had never felt the same way as Catherine did for any woman. Although she was always unable to tolerate a little ferocity in women, she was able to persevere for a longer time in front of Catherine. She was special. Perhaps. But this was a different problem.

“I love you. But you can’t get married. King Lithium agreed to lay a railway in his country with ten gold mines in the white mountains in exchange for marrying his daughter…It can make a lot of people live full.”

Because you’re the man to be the king. Catherine should understand him. Isn’t that natural? Prince Gwiz explained to her eagerly, but Catherine’s face did not brighten.

Catherine seemed to have a hard time holding on any longer.

“…I see. Your Highness.”

Catherine woke up in tears.

“Be happy.”

“Catherine!”

Prince Gwiz took Catherine’s hand.

“Your Grace, please let me go.”

“I can’t live without you. I need you.”

“You don’t have my seat next to you.”

“Catherine!”

Are you saying this on purpose? Can’t you just answer what you want? Prince Gwiz lamented her simplicity, which eventually led him to open his mouth first.

“You don’t have to get married to love, do you? Marriage is just a formality.”

“…Your Grace?”

Catherine opens her eyes round, as if unexpected. You usually have such a good sense. Prince Gwiz pressed his heart out and pleaded.

“You’re the only one I really love. You know, don’t leave me behind.”

“Your Highness… will marry him. How can I be next to you?”

“I can’t do it without you. I’m going to die right now. Please… Catherine.”

“Your Highness.”

What should I give her to satisfy her? What kind of gift will I have to give him?

“I’ll give you a palace to stay in. I always sleep there. I’ll have a meal there. But marriage, not that one. I love you but I have too much to bear.”

Catherine looked down at the hand quietly. Prince Gwiz had never seen her so quiet. Catherine has always been a chattering little bird-like woman. But she was like a doll that didn’t know what she was thinking now.

“…Your Grace, I… But me and my son… Will he continue to be the seed of sin?”

“Let’s go to hell together. If you’re guilty, it’s my fault.”

Prince Gwiz hoped that his words would sound plausible. Catherine wept in silence. As Prince Gwiz slowly became angry at his nervousness, Catherine opened her mouth.

“Okay, Your Highness. If only I had your heart… I’m going to use that….”

As expected, Catherine loves herself. Prince Gwiz quickly got up, hugged Catherine and kissed her. She seemed a little resistant, but soon she closed her eyes and accepted his lips.

“What? The government? I don’t think I’ll accept that. She’s not a prostitute, she’s a granddaughter of the Grand Duke, a count’s daughter.”

Marquis of Pancair was wrong. She loves herself, so she’s willing to put up with it. Didn’t you finally say yes?

“Thank you for your understanding. Katherine, I love you. I’ll do whatever you want.”

Prince Gwiz happily embraced Catherine. And he was a little surprised at himself. I can’t believe I feel relieved. He was inwardly nervous that Catherine would turn him down with a straight face.

‘That was a good worry.’

But who rejects his order? He’s going to be the king of this country.

Who would be good?’

Prince Gwiz decided to speak at once today, as Katherine had convinced him.

“If you want, yes. How about marrying Haier? Marry him and move his residence to the palace.”

The king’s mistress should be a married woman.

The law and religion allow only a partial marriage, but those with money want to have several women. add up to a king However, due succession is only recognized by a legitimate wife. It was impossible for an illegitimate child to take over the title. So the government should be married.

“Let me…”

“Yeah, you can’t just turn your child into a bastard. You’ll need a fake husband.”

Choose the right man and marry him. Even if you know that the whole country is a government, there is no problem in declaring that you are his child if you have ever married him. There’s no way to identify your own child.

No Duke or Marquis is allowed. Not even men with power in the capital city. Moderate, weak, young man. sublime people who cannot resist themselves

“Mr. Haier….”

“You don’t like it? Then I’ll give him the count. But not too strong. I’ll pick a man for you, and you can pick one of them.”

“…I….”

Catherine tried to say something, but soon smiled and said,

“I will marry the man you choose.”

Prince Gwiz kissed Catherine. It was the perfect answer he wanted.

Prince Gwiz prepared for Catherine.

She made a secret room with her in the basement connected to her room. He will get married and make children compulsory, but it will be with Catherine that he falls asleep at night. So he gave Catherine the key.

During the wedding of Crown Prince Dunguiz, Catherine will be vowing a meaningless wedding in a temple.

“You are my only wife. That should be enough.”

“…….”

The appearance of the princess from abroad was not attractive. Prince Gwiz held a hard-bodied woman and shook her compulsorily. And I came out of the room with my clothes on. It wasn’t where he was. A real wedding takes place at night.

Katharine

The only woman who understands my darkness.

“Catherine!”

But she was not in the basement. Prince Gwiz looked around. No, she’s not. Catherine was supposed to wait for her here.

“…it’s.”

It was a letter left by Catherine.

I love you, Mr. Haier. Please don’t contact me anymore.
