215 “(Quick Travel) Meat Eating Journey” Chapter 214
byChapter 214 Western Palace‧Prostitution Chief Guard (7)
His Majesty Alexander III, the King of the Kingdom of Kosay, is recognized as a man of good fortune. He has been the crown prince for more than thirty years. He spent the first thirty years of his life eating, drinking, having fun, and playing games in the world.He inherited the throne at the age of thirty-five, and he was full of plans. He only shouldered the responsibility for two years, and then left all the state affairs to his daughter, who was only fourteen years old at the time, and continued to be his rich and idle man.
It can be said that his life has been smooth sailing, and he has almost never worried about anything. The only thing he is worried about is probably his daughter’s marriage.
So when he was seriously ill, he held his daughter’s hand in a daze: “Lily, my baby…you must find a good husband, so…this way I can close my eyes even after I die.”
What he talked about was nothing but the love and care of a loving father. Margery sat on the edge of the bed with her head lowered, no matter what her father said, she nodded silently.Anthony and a group of guards were guarding the door. The doctors were busy discussing, and everyone had anxious looks on their faces.
Anthony looked at Arthur who was silent next to him, and couldn’t help but secretly thought, His Majesty has become like this, it seems that the princess’s marriage can no longer be postponed.As the first heir to this huge kingdom, she will be crowned queen after her father’s death. Margaery’s marriage is still beyond her control.
After all, she is still too young, and a strong husband will help her win over people after she succeeds to the throne.Being unmarried will also make the lords look down on her, and every noble knows that giving birth to a healthy heir is the most important thing.
Various reasons forced her to consider the candidate for her husband as soon as possible. The king was still thinking about this matter when he was seriously ill. It was also because behind the father and daughter, the king’s cousin was eyeing him. If Margaery was a little weaker after taking the throne, he would be deprived of the throne.
It seems that the lovers will never get married. Anthony thought with regret that if His Majesty the King could live a few more years, it might be possible for the two of them. Who knows that His Majesty would suddenly become seriously ill.The results of the diagnosis have come out. If His Majesty can survive these few days, there is still hope of recovery. If not, the Kosai Kingdom will have to find a new ruler.
It was already late at night, the king finally fell asleep, and Margaery walked out of the bedroom with a tired look on her face.
“Your Highness.” Arthur walked over quickly. The girl raised her head, and her pale face made Arthur’s heart ache. He wanted to say something, but his thin lips moved, but nothing came out.
How many years had passed since he had seen her look so fragile again.The princess in Arthur’s memory was always proud and strong, except for one time.Arthur still remembered that at that time, Her Majesty the Queen had just passed away due to illness, and His Majesty the King had been crying all day long. He was still only a nine-year-old princess, patting his father on the shoulder to encourage him to cheer up.People say that the little princess is really a strong child.
But Arthur knew it wasn’t the case. He was guarding the little princess every day, and in the deserted courtyard late at night, he heard the little princess’s sobs.At that time, Arthur thought that he must protect her and do anything for her, as long as she stopped crying.
But wherever you can succeed in anything in this world, the most heartbreaking thing is those things that you can never do.
So Arthur could only watch the girl stagger back to her room, her two beautiful eyebrows furrowed even in her sleep.He stretched out his hand to smooth the wrinkles between the girl’s brows, but stopped midway.
Arthur knew that Her Royal Highness the Princess was getting married.Soon, a man who matches her will come to protect her, and her so-called ambition is just the delusion of a lowly person.
Strangely, there was no trace of sadness in his heart.Because he knows that his noble and beautiful princess deserves a golden crown, a good marriage, beautiful scenery, and the best of everything in the world.So he was willing to endure, watch, and give everything to the princess when she needed him, and then smile and watch her fall into the arms of another man.
Just why, he felt tight and painful in his chest.

The summer palace suddenly became noisy.
The nobles who were still staying in the royal capital heard that the king was seriously ill and rushed to the villa on the outskirts of the city.While the king was in a daze, several dances were held in the palace one after another, and the message conveyed was very obvious – Her Royal Highness the Princess was about to find a husband.
As if a stone had been thrown into the lake, more and more nobles gathered in the summer palace. In Her Royal Highness’s study, in addition to office bearers and doctors, there were also various lords and their sons, tall or short, fat or thin, who came in and out every day.
In such incredible enthusiasm, Margery only felt funny and sad. She thought that if she opened her mouth, those old guys who regarded her as fat would be eager to take off her son’s pants and let the future Her Majesty the Queen see how capable he is.
She had never realized so clearly that she was a commodity waiting to be sold.But she couldn’t refuse, and she couldn’t blame her father for urging her to get married.Because the world is like this, before you are strong enough, even being able to express sorrow and joy freely is a luxury.
She loves Arthur so much, maybe because she doesn’t have to hide it at all in front of this man.Put the arrogant, ugly, and even fragile side in front of him, and no matter what she is like, Arthur will never leave her.
But soon, she could no longer let that man protect her.
The determination welling up in her heart was like the strongest wine. She stood up, grabbed Arthur’s hand, and led him back to the bedroom with the surprised eyes of all the affairs officers.
“Arthur,” the girl raised her head like a proud swan, “you will not disobey any of my orders, right?”
Arthur was still in shock, but he answered almost instinctively: “Yes.”
“Very good,” she smiled and unbuttoned her collar in front of the man, “Then I order you to have sex with me.”
