Chapter 50
At the same time, Perez released Kylus"s arm, which he had grasped so tightly.
"Ha-am. I slept well."
Florentia stretched out as hard as she could, and then found the man standing in front of her and asked innocently.
"Huh? Who?"
As soon as Florentia opened her eyes, it was the opposite reaction from Perez, who raised its claws and guarded like a wounded cat.
"Ah ……."
Kylus, who had been holding his suddenly released arm, came to his senses and greeted her.
"h.e.l.lo, Miss Florentia Lombardy. I"m Kylus Herring, the attendant of the Second Imperial Palace."
"Oh, the Second Imperial Palace …."
Florentia, who blinked his big eyes for a moment nodded and said while clapping his hands small.
"If it"s a Herring, is it a Herring Family from the Lombardy Scholarship Foundation?"
"Yes, that"s right, lady."
“And Caitlyn is here too?”
“Did you sleep well, young lady?”
Caitlyn greeted politely.
"Wow, nice people came."
It was like she had already known that someone would come.
Kylus tilted his head inward and looked at Perez.
Where did Perez that a few moments ago seemed to break Kylus hand, when he was about to touch Florentia, go..."
He now looking at the figure of Florentia smiling wide.
Kylus and Caitlyn quietly exchanged eyes.
It seems that the two are not usually together.
Caitlyn approached and arranged the messy hair and clothes for Florentia.
Perez looked closely at the Florentia, who was being cared for by them familiarly and asked.
"Do you know they are?"
"Yeah. I saw Caitlyn when I came to the mansion before. Kylus..... I"ve seen him for the first time, but he was from a family that"s very close to my family."
At Florentia"s words, Kylus laughed proudly.
It was because Herring, Lombardy"s va.s.sal, seemed to be receiving recognition.
“You both will be tired, but now you have to move.”
"We are moving?"
Perez hardened his face.
Kylus missed it.
Although this palace is at the same level as a ruined house, it was a place where the Second Prince was born, raised, and had memories with his mother.
Kylus was hesitant to explain this, but Florentia said while holding Perez"s hand.
"A new palace must be given to you."
"I don"t need it."
Perez said fairly firmly.
"No, you need it. What you need the most right now is the palace."
However, Florentia"s words were even more decisive.
"Why?"
“Because this is too close to the Empress Palace.”“Hmm, hmm…….”
At Florentia"s straightforward words, Kylus was amazed and coughed.
Caitlyn looked around to see if the door was closed.
"You know what I mean?"
"Huh.... "
Kylus sweeps his chest down.
If Perez never wants to go and insists on not moving to the new palace, things get very complicated.
In any case, giving down a new palace was a great gift from His Majesty the Emperor, and rejecting it could be seen as rejecting orders, no matter how small children.
Perez still a child, so it was okay to force him to move, but he still a prince anyway, and Kylus didn"t want to start messing his first meeting with his master.
Besides.
Perez is too strong!
Seeing the wrist that was caught by Perez a while ago was still sore, it seemed like it was bruising.
However, Kylus, who was born as an innately capable servant, laughed while touching his sore wrist.
"A good Prince, too!"
Even basic food, clothing, and shelter have not been provided and has already lived alone for several months.
Nevertheless, Perez had many unique corners at a glance.
For example, the extraordinary beauty, the power you cannot think of as a child, and the charismatic gaze that was staring at Kylus a little while ago!
Thinking that the person he will be serving in the future is good in many ways, Kylus spontaneously tightened his shoulders and raised his mouth.
Then he stepped forward and said.
"The palace that His Majesty gave to the Second Prince is Poirak Palace, located on the east side of the Imperial Palace. It is about the size of the palace that Your Majesty Emperor used when His Majesty was a Prince."
"In addition to the building itself, it is even bigger if you consider the gardens included in the Poirak Palace, the maids, and the attendants. It is the same size as the palace of Astana, the First Prince.
"I like that!"
Florentia exclaimed with great satisfaction.
“That again… No, Astana will have a little stomachache!”
Because she is Lombardy"s direct line, she is not hesitating in words and actions.
But there is no one here to condemn it.
Rather, just Lombardy"s people Caitlyn and Kylus quarreled.
"Come on, Perez."
Florentia said when she stepped out of bed.
“To see your new house.”
* * *
"Wow …."
Standing in front of us was a Poirak Palace, ready to meet the new owner.
I admired it without knowing it.
“It’s really big.”
Poirak Palace was a much larger palace than I thought.
I liked it even more because it was a location where I had to take a long carriage ride from the separate palace where Perez lived and go completely to the other side of the Imperial Palace.
"Did you like it?"
I who have a small place compared to this was envied, and my stomach aches at the moment. (I don"t know this refers to Perez who envies Tia or Tia who envies Perez. When you read the next paragraph it"s Tia comparing her house but in fact, Florentia has no reason to be envious. I decide it refers to Tia. Sorry for the mistakes)
The Lombardy mansion is also large, but the house where my father and I are staying is on a small level with a few rooms.
And when I looked back at him, Perez couldn"t take his eyes off the Poirak Palace and the busy servants.
Yes, I did a good job.
In fact, if you are a prince, you have to be treated like this from the beginning and grow up.
It"s ridiculous that Perez had suffered alone while being stuck in that separate palace.
"Probably, in the afternoon, everything will be ready."
Said Caitlyn.
"It"s fast."
"It"s because the Lord moved it directly."
After all, my grandfather was awesome.
I hesitated a lot to ask my grandfather to do Perez" work.
But again, my choice was right.
Caitlyn had nothing to say, and Kylus seemed to be a good person. This way, Perez won"t have to eat poison and have a miserable childhood.
And if you live surrounded by good Lombardy people since childhood, Perez will surely have the impression of a Lombardy servant.
That was my plan.
To make a good relationship between Perez and Lombardy, who will later become Princes.3
That"s why he will give me strength when I later try to become a matriarch.
“Now don’t hesitate and live here.”
There was a lot of work, but what I did was simple.
It only created an environment in which Perez could live comfortably while enjoying the things like the Prince.
"Why do you say that?"
"What, what?"
"Why are you talking like it"s over."
The complexion of the guy who looked at Poirak Palace as if he had been possessed a while ago became dark.
I felt like I was looking at the sky covered with dark clouds that would rain right now.
"Oh, no, it"s not like that."
"It"s too big."
“What is so big about it?”
"So take responsibility."3
Perez"s finger gripped the tip of my sleeve.
"You have to come often."6
"Often?"
I"m busy.
But the look of the guy who sees me who doesn"t give a definite answer is fierce.
Was he the kid, how can he know how to make this kind of expression?
Then, I suddenly thought of the future of Perez and convinced him.
“Once, I will write letters often..… Okay."
The shabby guy"s shoulders droop again.
It was then.
Correuk.
A very loud sound came from Perez who pretends not to hear.
I guess he hasn"t eaten properly in a few days.
I spoke to Kylus on behalf of Perez.
“We are hungry. Please give us food!"

Chaenggrang.1
The teacup that Empress holding was broken with a loud noise.
“What did you say now?”
Even today, the maid who spoke to the Empress, became more white and tired when she looked at the teacups on the floor.
However, no matter how afraid, she knew that if she didn"t answer, she would be punished even more, so she struggled to squeeze her voice.
"True, His Majesty gave the Second Prince....... His Majesty Emperor gives Poirak Palace to The Second Prince. Her Majesty Empress."
“Where is His Majesty now?”
"Eating at the patronage of the Imperial Palace……."
Beep.
The empress, who was being dressed leisurely, got up in a hurry from where he was sitting.
“Bring a dress! right now!"
The dress skirts of the maids fluttered along the corridor, following the Empress"s quick steps.
After attaining the patronage of the Imperial Palace, Empress raised her voice and began to call the Emperor.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, where are you!"
At that time, instead of answering, there was the loud laughter of the Emperor and another person.
"Haha! That"s a smart kid!"
It was the emperor who burst into laughter while tapping on the table of patronage.
Rabini said, turning around the corner with a glamorous smile.
“Your Majesty, you were here…….”
But the next moment, her smile disappeared like it was washed with water.
"Oh! Empress! Welcome. Lombardy"s Lord has just visited, so let"s have a cup of tea as well."
Rabini realized.
Suddenly, the reason why the Emperor was interested in the Second Prince, and the reason why he gives the Poirak Palace.
Everything was done by an old Lombardy man.
"It"s been a long time, Empress."
Lulak Lombardy greeted her while standing up from his seat.
Lulak, who couldn"t stand the anger and watched her, trembling, said to the Emperor.
"I think I have to go, Your Majesty."
"No, why are you leaving now?"
"There"s something I need to take care of at Poirak Palace on the way out...."
"Oh, is that right? Then I will see you off to the carriage."
While the two had a conversation like a close relative whom they had met after a long time, Rabini trembled with a sense of alienation, like he had become a complete outsider.
And the feeling culminated when Lulak"s eyes pa.s.sed her, Lulak left and the Emperor followed him.
That means she couldn"t stand there stupidly.
The empress forcedly smiled and followed the Emperor"s back to see Lulak off.
When it is time to pa.s.s through the corridor in front of the main door where the Lombardy carriage is waiting.
A man was standing.
It was Lulak"s son, Viese Lombardy.
He stayed at the Empress Palace last night, when he heard the news, he was startled and jumped.
Dumb, dumb.
Lulak Lombardy, who took the lead, gradually became closer to Viese.
"Oh, father."
Viese, who was contemplated like a child caught in stealing, was hardened with no courtesy to the Emperor.
And Lulak Lombardy pa.s.sed by without even paying attention to him.1
He made his first son look like a non-existent person.3
"Hh……."
Viese groaned like he was having a nightmare, and could not even think of following Lulak, he stood as if he had been nailed to the spot.1
“Well, see you sooner or later.”
"Now show your face often, Lord."
Lulak and the emperor greeted each other as if no one else.
So Lombardy"s carriage leaves.
Rabini, who kept biting her lips and suppressing her anxiety, approached the Emperor and opened her mouth.
"Sire...."
She was amazed.
"What do you do, Empress?"
He is looking at her and smiling.
It"s a smile that"s not so different from before.
But The Emperor"s eyes changed.
Her hand, realizing it instinctively, fell weakly.
"I have to go to see Iman"s office. The Empress will also return to rest."
There was no mention of the Second Prince.
Now she was sentenced to have no authority over the Second Prince. The Emperor returns to the office, and Rabini has been unable to move in place for a while as Viese did.
