Umi to Kaze no Oukoku

16 King Rudolph and Misha

"What? Aren't you mistaken, Ariena? I think Misha is still young to fall in love."

Ariena told Alexei that Misha had a thing for Shaw.

"Misha must be 13, right? Prince Shaw is 14, and it's not weird to be in love at all. I must have been 14 when I fell in love with Alexei at first sight."

Speaking of which, Alexei smiles at sweet and sour memories.

"Besides, he rescued me from the pirates. My face is cute, and if you give me a gentle hug, I can't help falling in love. It's just that I was blue when I heard Prince Shaw had a pardon daughter-in-law, so maybe I'll give up?

Alexei gave up that she didn't have a chance to win because she had previously tried to get Misha to marry Shaw, but although she liked her sister and her modest attitude, she knew her personalized and beautifully matched bridesmaids.

"Ariena will also know Misha can't do it. Prince Shaw's bridesmaids are special. And to the son-in-law of Princess Zelia of the Kingdom of Surah, they want it. The next Queen of the Kingdom of Surah may be Prince Shaw's daughter. Even if Prince Shaw, the hottie, gets tired of roses, lilies and orchids and stops looking at the wild blossoms, he won't fold his hands. His Majesty King Edoardo of the Kingdom of Cazaria was also thinking of Princess Shelley, the bastard, but he seems to have been tempted by Princess Melissa's beauty, intelligence and colour."

Pun and Ariena get angry that Alexei is terrible against her sister.

"Dear Alexei, you like Boncu Bon like Princess Melissa. His Majesty King Edoardo had received a letter from Rosalimond saying that Princess Melissa was a dragon knight with honors at the University of Paloma. She liked Princess Melissa very much and it would be nice to be invited to the royal palace event, but Stewart was angry that her eyes could be drawn to her chest. The king over there is easy to make mistresses, so keep your eyes peeled away from Master Stewart."

Alexei laughs that Stewart will be fine if he doesn't keep an eye on Lady Rosalimond.

"Princess Melissa is like a love affair with Prince Shaw, and Rosalimond seems to like it because she hasn't been approached by a Paloma college student or a Westin classmate. If Crown Prince Stewart looks at his chest like a couple promises... oh, I don't want Rosalimond to get ahead of me..."

Alexei approached the dangerous topic area, so asks to what extent Misha thinks Shaw.

The two, a couple of dragon knights, had no children after a year and a half of marriage. Ariena had taken over the green magic, but she didn't have enough magic to cast a curse on the cabbage for the baby, so she wanted the mother to build a cabbage field for her son.

But King Georg's heirs, who resent Queen Yuri shooting his predecessor's dragon rider Cassandra, had a refusal to use such suspicious magic to create the next generation of princes and princesses, so the cabbage fields had to give up.

Ariena filled her head with children's issues rather than answering Alexei's questions.

"Ask Misha herself how much you like it. Besides, if the cabbage fields don't work, you have to think of other ways. Uh-huh. Catherine told me about William and Princess Mimi's conversation from Brother Phillip, and she wrote it funny and funny. Princess Mimi loved Prince Shaw and asked her if she could sell herself into the dragon-riding Sands because she wanted to be a pardon daughter-in-law or how she would like it. Catherine wrote to Sir Andrew that she couldn't make it that far. That's right! Princess Mimi came up with the idea that she should be the Dragon Knight of Bonds and make a mate flight with Sands."

Alexei bursts out laughing that in unmarried Mimi, the operation is impossible.

"Surely, a dragon cavalry doesn't mate flying unless the bonded dragon knight is sexually mature? Even if you want to drop Prince Shaw in the virgin Princess Mimi, you can't?

"Well, it looks like the matter was traded to King Aslan to make him Prince Shaw's pardon in exchange for his admission to Leudenheim with Princess Erica's escort. Besides, we're a couple, so there's nothing wrong with that."

Smile and kiss Ariena, who dyed her cheeks a little, that Alexei is worth a try. Prince Alexei had taken it seriously that even in this case of Baron Hagel's conspiracy, there were aspects of the inheritance being poked through an unborn gap.

To the Crown Prince and his wife in Lovelab, still feeling newlywed, the matter of Misha has been left behind, but King Rudolf takes it quite seriously.

"When Alexei said it out, I didn't feel like riding... but apparently Misha fell in love with Prince Shaw at first sight"

Count Cunningham, one of the few loyal ministers, also noticed Misha's young first love, as he was also entrusted with the security and management of the Henderson family.

"That's because the pirates helped me. Sir Genius used to be a temperamental samurai, so Princess Misha never went outside. Prince Shaw would look like the ideal prince for a young warrant lady. But it's polygamy."

Count Cunningham brought up polygamy because he had witnessed Rosina behaving in such a way that it was difficult to tell the King that the ladylike and modest Misha had no chance of winning.

"Count Cunningham, you're alone with me, so you can answer honestly. Prince Shaw's pardoned daughter-in-law is Princess Rosina. I have never met her, but I have heard that she is a dragon knight, a talented man, or gorgeous. Misha looks just like her mother Sophia, modest and gentle, but I guess she thought she wouldn't be dealt with."

With a bitter smile, the two remember Sophia, who died young.

"If Sophia had lived, I would have made her an official concubine after her father's death... so that Misha wouldn't have seen her like this one"

When I revealed my affection for Sophia and Misha, I regretted leaving them at the Henderson family for fear that they would be used as hostages by my father's former King Georg.

At the time of the death of his father Georg, Sophia had left the world, and since Alexei and Narcisse returned home, King Rudolph takes heavily his indecision in remembering Lady Constance, who had found it difficult to forget, and who had also met Misha.

"Count Cunningham, will you find someone to make Misha happy? Old Imperial rebuilders say they have to be excluded the most, and then no dragon knights. Some people plot a conspiracy like Baron Hagel this time, so there's a point in your statement, but if you exclude these two..."

The old Imperial rebuilders have a good number in the military, and the exclusion of the elite dragon knights means they have to look for Misha's son-in-law from among the civilian or trusted nobles.

"Misha is my daughter for once, but she is only a common son. The prestigious nobleman will not be too pleased, and if the noble lady is her aunt, will the modest Misha live in fright?

If Count Cunningham was even worried about that, he sighs if he can't find Princess Misha's daughter-in-law or something.

"Your Majesty, I think it's a good idea to tap the stone bridge and cross it, but if they knock the stone bridge down like that, we won't move on. Besides, if a prestigious nobleman in the country doesn't daughter-in-law, isn't the King Prince of the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands more impossible? Instead of a high-profile aunt, talented ladies are gathering in Harlem."

King Rudolph roars, pointing out the weakness of his thoughts as Zubari.

"But Alexei said that Prince Shaw's bridesmaids were free to act and look like they were having fun. In our view, there seems to be a considerable difference between Harlem and polygamy in the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands. The rights and property of the wives are protected by the Empire Three Kingdoms. I can tell you about the divorce from my wife, and I'm free to remarry, and when I do, I get what I've increased my bribe with investments and transactions. Besides... there is no discrimination against bastards in the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands. Misha made Sophia a shade as a common son because of my hesitation to make her queen. If you marry the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands, you will be treated equally, whether you are a common son"

Even though Count Cunningham said equality, he discouraged the pardons from disputing that they were royal princesses. That's how much King Rudolph knew the statement, and I assumed that if we kept Misha in the country, he was afraid that he would risk being blamed for another conspiracy.

This Baron Hagel conspiracy was still prevented, and it was clear that Misha was not guilty, but if the married person was responsible for at least one stick of the conspiracy, there would be a danger of being held guilty. If the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands were to daughter-in-law, whether Misha was a common son or not, it was realistic to see Prince Shaw with a mother without a back shield that the children born would be nurtured dearly as princes and princesses.

"If it's such a rich country, one or two of Princess Misha might be okay. After all, it's a country that doesn't sleep outside and die even in winter. I can only envy a country that won't starve if it takes fish at sea and eats the fruits that are trees. On top of that, we are cowing the deal, so the wealth of the world is gathered in the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands."

King Rudolph laughs bitterly at the stupidity of his loyalists.

"We'll have to discuss this with Misha for once. We have to explain polygamy in the United Kingdom of the Southeast Islands, and if Misha reacts to the rejection, we just have to say there was no such thing as a story."

If Misha likes Shaw, King Rudolph thinks he wants Sophia to marry the person he likes to make up for her inability to be his queen.

"Prince Shaw received a report from an ambassador in New Paloma that he did not want to increase his dowry. That ambassador, too, is your father's heir, but he's taking his job seriously. King Edoardo was also thinking of making Princess Shelley, the commoner, Prince Shaw's pardon, but I hear he was abandoned when he saw Princess Melissa enrolled in the University of Paloma"

King Rudolph thinks that a dragon knight, on top of his talent, seems to have no chance of winning over Misha, but Prince Shaw should have no such type of forgiveness as a beautiful girl of dim fortune.

"I was also attracted to Sophia's sad eyes, so Prince Shaw may also want to make Misha's dark gray eyes shine with laughter. You should have the shipyard land for the money..."

I knew Sophia, who had lost her wedding dragon knight in a war with the Kingdom of Iran earlier and lived like a widow while unmarried, hoping to somehow sparkle her sad eyes with happiness, but she could die unfulfilled.

He was King Rudolph, determined to atone for that remorse by making Misha happy just like him.
