The King'S Bride < & Bride >
12. The invisible shackles
A week later he received a letter from the first prince asking him to come to the palace.
At first the little girl wanted to ignore the piece of paper unfortunately Dr. Gi snatched the paper without excuse and told her to leave
Lazily staring out the glass door in the palace his body was leaning against the door
"Amazing sight" from his direction the view of the old palace was seen liking the sun shining all around him
Echem...
Hearing that voice alin immediately turned his body and sat down on the sofa
"Why have you been here so long?" Fangzue's hoarse voice sounded annoyed, seeing the prince's attitude could only sigh "Do you think my work is just hanging on the street? My cut for this month is over so I can't be careless" alin answered tightly
Fang Zue raised both eyebrows "You should thank me today you're off"
"You're just selfish, you never think about the fate of your people who are sick right now"
usually when alin on duty there will be many patients who come other than free, the drugs given all proved to be very powerful and also very friendly so that all the patients feel comfortable but they all call the little girl Ling'er. at first only one or two people over time everyone from the simple circles called it ling'er.
Only among the nobility knew him as Alin Craetta the grandson of the Royal Physician Alley Swanetta
"I want to give you an offer" Fang zue said
Without thinking Alin immediately replied "I refused it"
"What?!"
Fang zue was surprised he had not just said what he wanted to offer
Alin repeated his words
"I refused!"
Fang's face turned black and the aura around him was gloomy
"Aren't you sorry I wanted to offer you a high-paying palace doctor? Don't you go crazy over treasure"
'It turns out that his thinking is narrow' said alin in the heart "hypocritical if I say I am not interested in the treasures of the law of the Jungle is still valid until now, who is strong he won"
"I am crazy treasure but I still have a heart I don't want to accept any illicit money anyway it's in this palace has a lot of doctors so there is nothing to do"
Fang zue nodded in agreement that the doctor in the palace was enough let alone a woman, the number of them until they wandered around every corner
"Yes if you don't want to but I still want to ask you something!"
"What?"
Fang Zue grinned "You and your family haven't given me a present for my birthday two weeks ago so now I want to ask for it, where is my gift?"
Fang Zue's words almost made Alin choke fortunately the water in his mouth did not spurt so this was his real intention to send a letter and ask him to come to the palace just to ask for a birthday gift.
Regretting...
That one word came to mind. The little girl smiled bitterly as she took off the watch in her left hand, it was the only thing she could give away at the moment she could not possibly give her phone as a gift
"It!"
Alin put the watch on the table there was a little bit of insincere feeling when the clock was taken by the man in front of him "Lumayan Bagus!" muttered Fang Zue while trying it out
"Well, it's not good that Rolex original watches are the latest brand, very good! If only you were in the woods or on the edge of a cliff, I'd make sure I gave you an extra gift for asking for that watch!"
"What extra gift is that?" Fang zue tekekeh saw Alin's face that was unwilling to lose his watch
"Oh you want let's go now there, the reward I will make you fly to heaven so that you can not return" angry mixed with resentment has filled the little girl's brain
"So you're not willing to present it?"
Alin smiled wryly "I can be sincere as long as you appreciate my gift. You don't know my struggle to get that thing" it's actually pretty easy to get him he just needs to put a puppy eye in front of Professor Alpha and ask him what he wants
After that, Alin stood up and was about to go "Easy now I want to go back"
"Eeh not that soon, honestly my father asked you to come. It would be best if you meet her before you go home" Fang forced the Little Girl to follow her into the king's study
There was already a queen mother with sparkling eyes looking at alin besides that there were also several servants and ministers
"Greetings Respect from my father, mother" Fang zue said as he bowed slightly
The servants and ministers stared at alin because from earlier he just kept quiet without paying any respect seeing Fang zue's eye gesture that told him to salute alin snorted in annoyance
While looking at the king and queen alin said "Greetings from me to the King and Everything" the little girl did not bow at all so the king chuckled at her
"My son Alin we can finally meet again!" the King said with pride. Alin knit his eyebrows
'Since when did I become his son?!' mumbles alin in the heart
"Alin Craetta, my best friend Swanetta's granddaughter, do you know why I asked you to come here?" ask the King
Alin shook his head "If it were to offer me as a palace doctor like the prince did, I apologize that I would still reject him"
The King laughed "I just want to thank you for saving my family, first my wife and then my successor you're like a guardian angel. As a sign of my gratitude I will give you permission to freely go in and out of the palace anyone who prevents you will deal directly with me"
Everyone was astonished to hear it except for the Queen who had known the king's previous decision "Thank you for your kindness the king" said alin of course he was happy because it had been a few days he thought of a way to get into the Old Palace which was full of plants
"And I want to tell you something too. I'm the King and father of my son's son, wanting to propose to you as my second son-in-law your marriage will take place after Fang Zue gets married. Do you mind?!" said the King with a great light in his eyes
In an instant all the happiness of the Little Girl was lost without a trace. Her smile turned into a slick smile and the surrounding aura became gloomy, the Queen who was sensitive to this change of attitude instantly descended from the King's throne and immediately embraced the girl
"Calm down dear, what the king meant was not Fang zue but Ruan Ruo or better known as Rumireo Radeya" said the Queen as she stroked alin's head affectionately. Fang Zue's face was no less grim than Alin's - why his heart was hurting so much that he couldn't say anything, he had just seen an attractive girl in his eyes but now the girl was going to be given to his sister
Everything the queen said did not help at all, there was no change in her gloomy attitude. Seeing that the King again asked "Do you mind?"
Consciously Alin looked intently at the person sitting on the throne, who he was who had the right to determine his marriage he was not his family and also not a God in his eyes "I have many conditions of the King, I have many conditions, I can't decide to take that proposal for granted"
As the king expected, the little girl in front of him would be difficult to achieve
"What's the condition?"
"Wedding is sacred I want to only get married 1 time in my life and I also want my future husband to be like that"
"Did Ru know about this?!"
Alin was sure that the king and queen would not tell Ruan Ruo about their decision
The King rose from his throne and told all the ministers and servants to leave until the four of them were left in the room
The king no longer sat on his throne, now he was in front of the little girl and holding both shoulders
"I'll tell him son, agree or not this is still my decision"
The aura around the little girl grew increasingly gloomy as she thought of various ways to stop the king's decision
"But King you should know me. I'm not a good person anyways me and Ru have different beliefs"
The King chuckled "I know everything"
Alin gritted his teeth "King you should know I'm not a virgin and I've had past trauma" Alin's voice was so soft when he said that. It was fortunate that the ministers had walked out of the room so no one would scoff at him. As a virginity girl is something that must be guarded like a treasure but the treasure is worth the treasure, many naughty eyes that intend to steal it
The King and Queen also felt the sadness of the little girl before him. The King also still remembers the dark time when he felt he had failed and until now he still feels guilty "Everything that happened in the past is not your fault son!" muttered the King
The three of them were swept away in the conversation thus ignoring Fang zue who was still faithfully listening from earlier 'So Alin is not the Virgin Girl' there was a hint of disappointment in Fang zue's eyes
"Have a wish to forget the past, do not be remembered because it will only open the wound in your heart" The Queen tearfully stroked her hair and hugged her.
Alin took a few steps back from the two of them honestly this is actually a common thing for alin and only his grandfather who knows his condition.The parents of the little girl did not even know "You two don't need to feel guilty or sorry for me. I'm happy with living freely as I want, I'm happy so you don't try to shackle my feet"
The King sighed "I'm actually the one who wants to ask you for help son! Once I beg you to help me" Alin knit his eyebrows old man in front of him was very stubborn "Son you're a doctor you know my life is not long" the Queen's voice came out like lightning in a hole, Fang zue immediately nodded at his mother
"Mom what do you mean? Don't scare Fang'er ma'am, Fang'er's mother is strong and will live another 1 century!" fang zue's voice shook
Alin again sighed why his life should be like the story in the novel. It felt like he wanted to go back to his childhood where he knew nothing about the kingdom that he knew only playing with swords, running, laughing, and climbing trees. He does not need to make decisions or choose, it is unfortunate that life is like a wheel that continues to spin sometimes above and sometimes below no one knows for sure what will happen tomorrow
All he knows is whatever he chooses he must be able to manage the risk.
"What are your Wishes?"
"Marry her and change her bad habits"
Alin smirked "Trus what profit do I get from this marriage?!"
"We'll pay you!"
..................
The king's decree of the day has also been issued in a week there will be the first prince's wedding and a week after his marriage to Alin will be done "AKH Shit, soon after, damn where the fuck's going, how dare he ask you to set him up with me!" Ruan Ruo muttered while throwing things around his frustration culminated in Ruan Ruo's brain looking at him like a possessed person
At first he met her in the hospital but then ignored her like a wind, she just smiled and was friendly in front of her patients
The shadow of alin's face yesterday kept on shadowing him he smiled as if there was no problem he kept smiling and said the same thing to the patient 'Is It Still Sick? It must be difficult for you but be calm I'm here' said the word bewitching all patients including himself who is not a patient
"What am I thinking? Ru stupid crazy woman trying to frame you why are you interested in her?!" Ruan Ruo muttered as he shuffled his hair
He went out and walked towards the labyrinth his feet did not stop stepping until he arrived at the middle, the labyrinth was not far from the old palace and palace. at the beginning of the labyrinth there is a new palace while at the end there is an old palace
"It's Quite Quiet!" muttered Ruan Ruo while looking around him
hm... When tomorrow comes
I'll be on my own
Feeling the frightened of
The things that I don't know
A soft voice rang out from the direction of the old palace - there was little trace of sadness in his face. Unknowingly Ruan Ruo's feet stepped closer and closer towards him
When tomorrow comes
Tomorrow comes
Tomorrow's comes...
The faster his steps in the end Ruan Ruo ran into the palace he was curious about the soft and melodious voice that seemed to be pulling him closer
And though the road is long
I look up to the sky
And in the dark I found,
I lost hope that I won't fly
And I sing along, I sing along
And I sing along's...
He knew the song had been around for a long time but he had never heard of it
As he entered the palace at a glance he saw a white figure on the top floor
The singing stopped and changed the sound of the boy's laughter
"khehe..."
Ruan Ruo immediately ran after the white figure he had turned several times over the palace corridor
The sound of laughter was still heard and the longer the white figure was clearly visible.the white figure was sitting on the grassy floor while holding a book he was still laughing
"It turns out you!"
