C2227 love-kill (1/2)
The feelings of Crown Prince Edward were complicated. His father's image was simply too great in his heart, but his father's death was directly linked to him.
If it wasn't for him being a celebrity, why would his father take advantage of the cold rain to go to university to look for him? If that was the case, his father wouldn't have ended up with the final illness of typhoid fever.
Of course, he was well aware that his father's death was only an inducement, and that years of intense work and stress were the root cause of his physical collapse.
However, his mother didn't give him the chance to explain at all, she just pushed all the responsibility onto his head. All these years, when Edward wandered around among the flowers and became a popinjay, she would often give up on herself with a depressed heart.
He understood this logic, but his heart wasn't something that could be crossed just by reasoning alone.
Until today, when his father's figure once again appeared vividly in front of him, the Crown Prince's emotions almost broke down. He suddenly turned around and walked to Xiao Letian with big steps, his face twisted with a sinister expression.
”How did you get this picture? Tell me, have you been a spy in my England for a long time? ”
”Speak!” How on earth did you get this picture!? ”
The Crown Prince was growling, while Benjamin and the others were cheering, ”Awesome! Xiao Letian, you were clever for such a long time, did you hit the wrong horse?”
”You said that it's fine if you send the jade carving away, but why did you send the tiring scene before the prince's death? Don't you know that the Prince died of fatigue? ”
”Ha ha-ha, that's great! You're trying to push yourself into the line of fire!”
All of the guests present became embarrassed, especially the members of the British royal family. They knew too well about the relationship between the prince and queen from Germany, and how hardworking the prince was in the last years of his life.
The splendor of the Victorian era was not just the Queen's work, but his husband's dedication.
How could Xiao Letian be so stupid as to touch this taboo, so stupid that even the Queen fainted, you still expect the Crown Prince to be courteous to you?
But no one came out to persuade them, the Queen and the Crown Prince were angry, who would dare to come out and look for trouble?
”Answer me! Where's your tongue? Answer Me... How can you have such a picture? ”How do you know what my father looked like before he died …”
Edward really wanted to grab Xiao Letian's collar and punch him hard, but all these years of education and etiquette from the royal family had caused him to hold back his anger.
Everyone thought that it would be difficult for Xiao Letian to pass, and it was truly a pity that he had ruined the originally joyous banquet.
At this time, someone from the crowd who was ruthless spoke up, ”Prince, you speak too much. This Xiao Letian is the public enemy of Europe, he is used to schemes and tricks! Our Far East was conquered by his minuscule efforts... ”
”Prince, you really should check if there are Chinese spies in the royal family …”
”Yi Wan, shut up! Did I let you speak? Do you have the right to speak here!? ” Edward shouted loudly without even turning his head, his saliva flying all over Xiao Letian's face.
Yi Wan's flattery also hit the horse leg, causing the Crown Prince to scold him until his face turned red, and his neck shrunk, not daring to speak anymore.
