Shinario-dōri ni Taijō Shita no ni, Imasara Nan no Goyōdesu ka?

"You don't have to apologize. There's a lot to talk about today, but time is limited."

I'm sure your father sewed it between intense duties and twisted this time for me. It was rare to return within that day until just before I left the mansion.

"I'm going to tell you everything I can tell you at the moment today. And I want to hear what you're thinking, as time permits."

Unexpectedly, your father is smiling bitterly when he sees me looking up like I've been bounced.

"Don't be so obviously surprised. With me, there was some reflection on this one."

"Oh no...!

"I do, because half of it is the same as I set it up."

When I didn't know what it meant, my father prefaced me with saying, "If you talk to me, it will be long..." and began to talk about the backdrop of what I didn't think would happen.

My Royal Highness the Crown Prince Grecion and I were engaged when I was only seven years old.

A little weak, but honest and gentle, Master Grecion and a little impatient but hazy and energetic, I seem to have looked just right balanced at the time.

After the sudden premature death of his predecessor, at the time when the current king had just been reigned, there was a succession of engagement visits to His Royal Highness the young Crown Prince without cutting to the king during all this period.

If you hit it badly, it will upset the balance you maintain in the delicate balance, and if you don't make up your mind, you will be busily killed by the engagement interview as part of the power struggle. Even the king, who was suddenly in power, relied on his best friend, his father.

Fortunately, our house already had the power to push and not be pushed at that time, and I don't have to worry about the power balance breaking down due to my engagement… I must have been the best option for the king at the time without any more.

Your father also understood the king's predicament too well, and if the court is rough enough because of a power struggle, it is better to keep power in the Duke's house. It seemed inevitable that His Highness and I would accept a tentative engagement.

In fact, since my fiancée's position, the number of visits to the engagement that I had not even cut was rapidly reduced, and the country stabilized with more time spent in government by the King.

The measure of engagement taken at that time was the right choice.

At that point.

My Highness and I grow up without a major illness.

The growth of His Royal Highness, who was the only one to inherit the king's blood without any brothers in particular, was also important for the country.

But as we grew, new problems surfaced.
