I Raised Snow White!

46. Marriage with love and marriage without love

[Chapter 46] – Marriage with love and marriage without love.

The ‘Prince’s Visit’, which was a sub-event during the summer season in the game.

In the game ‘Snow White’, it belonged to the ‘division point’ where the ending of the princess changes depending on how these sub-events end. ‘Snow White’ was a game where the ending of the princess was determined by overlapping such turning points.

In this ‘Prince’s Visit’, when a princess gets engaged to a ‘third prince’ from a neighboring country, the third prince who has no right to inherit the throne moves over to Korea’s ‘Deril son-in-law’ and plays a role in supporting the princess as an NPC. .

If the confrontation with the prince ends in failure, the envoys from neighboring countries leave Korea without any incident. The next opportunity for engagement comes when the princess enters the ‘academy’.

It was just such a simple ‘sub-event’…

In the game, I didn’t pay much attention to things like diplomacy and politics, but when it became a reality, it was so complicated and difficult that I felt like I was going to lose my mind.

‘How many meetings have I had with this issue…’

From noble mtl dot com

It has been two months since I received the first report from the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

I haven’t been able to sleep well lately. As she prepared to greet the delegation, her eyes turned red and her dark circles reached down to her cheeks. I was preparing somehow, but it wasn’t that easy.

And what makes this difficult situation even more difficult is…

“…Titania. Let’s talk for a minute. Huh?”

“……Hey!”

The princess was very angry.

As soon as I told the princess that we would soon meet, the princess shouted at me as a liar and refused to come to see me or even talk to me.

As if she doesn’t want to even talk to me, the princess snorts at my call! He exhaled, turned his head, and went into his room.

Seeing her obviously avoiding me, I could only sigh as I looked at the princess. If it’s fortunate, I won’t lock the door saying I’ll live alone like in the past, but…

My heart ached for the princess to avoid me for two months. She called Ainsel and tried to ask how the princess was doing these days, but there was no response even when I called to see if Ainsel followed the princess and avoided me.

“Now I like Titania better than I am… Ha… Seriously, it’s like this ungrateful mirror. Who was really struggling to cure him?”

Even though he pounded Ainsel’s body and grumbled, it was of no use. In the mirror, only the irritated ‘my face’ was reflected, but Ainsel, who was by the princess’s side, seemed to have no intention of returning to her body anymore.

I wanted to go into the princess’s room right away and talk to her, but I didn’t have the time right now. I looked at the stack of papers on my bed and sighed.

Today is the day to talk with the queen mother about the ‘third prince’.

I lazily got up from the bed and headed out of the room with the papers. This document, written together with Vinshaw and the other ministers, must please the Queen Mother…

*

Smart-

“Come in.”

“Excuse me, Your Highness.”

I politely bowed my head and entered the Queen Mother’s office. Perhaps it was time for the queen to take a break, she sipped her cup of tea given to her by the lady-in-waiting and glanced at me.

“I heard you fought Titania.”

“It wasn’t a fight…”

The Queen Mother already knew everything, so she didn’t make excuses. I smiled shyly at the gesture and handed the queen her briefcase.

The Queen Mother glanced at the papers, then casually threw them on her desk as if she was not interested. My lips pouted involuntarily as I seemed to be reading the documents that the ministers and I had worked so hard to prepare.

The Queen Mother looked at my pouting lips at her, and she burst out laughing.

“You pay too much attention to the ‘Third Prince’ sent from the other side without much meaning.”

I nodded slightly to the Queen Mother’s words, ‘It doesn’t mean much.’ The third prince with no right of succession to the throne. The reason why the third prince was sent as an envoy from the other country would not really mean much.

He is neither the first nor the second who has the right to succeed to the throne. Sending a third son who had no right to the throne meant that he was not very interested in whether or not the third prince’s betrothal to the princess was successful.

It’s fine if you do, and if you don’t, it doesn’t matter, so they sent the third prince. Do you dare to face the princess with that thought?

“If it were the old me, I would have established the engagement ceremony. No matter how unattractive the third prince over there was, it was an engagement between countries. It’s easy to break off such an ambiguous engagement, so it might be easier to cross your feet for now…”

The Queen Mother, who had been staring blankly at the teacup, raised her head and looked at me. She lowered her eyebrows slightly, and with a tired expression she looked at me and smiled.

“Now I don’t know what the answer is.”

“……”

“Queen, do you think ‘love’ is necessary for a royal marriage?”

The Queen Mother glanced up at me and asked me. Does she need ‘love’ in a royal marriage? Hearing this question, I was able to understand how the Queen Mother was currently asking me this question.

“I am married without ‘love’ and remain here, and my children who married ‘love’ are not here, so I think that ‘love’ is not needed in a royal marriage if only the result is to be judged. .”

“…So, do you think a princess should marry without love?”

“…To tell you what I think of being married without love and remaining here…”

The Queen Mother looked at me with a bitter smile.

“I cannot say that my life has been happy.”

As she looked back on her own life, the Queen Mother lifted her head and let out a sigh. She then blinked her eyes a few times and let out a sigh as long as the life she had lived.

“I want Titania to always be happy, just like you. I don’t want to see my sweet granddaughter sad anymore. Seeing her crying like that is enough when she was young…”

Did the meeting of the princess remind her of the queen’s past?

Queen Dowager was a person who was married to the previous king, as it is commonly said, ‘betrothal’ between parents. I don’t know about the former king, but he himself had no love or affection for the marriage itself.

She just got married because she was engaged to him.

No matter how much time passed, she couldn’t find any ‘love’ in the process, she said. So she asked her to ‘love’ as much as her child, and to marry the person she liked, and she allowed it, but the result was miserable.

So the queen must have said this.

I don’t know what the correct answer is.

She made different choices in her life and her children’s life, but she didn’t do well in all of them. The Queen Mother seemed at a loss as to what choice she would make for her beloved granddaughter.

I was also like her queen mother.

If it were a game to make this choice…

I said, ‘Because this is for the princess. This choice will allow the princess to see a better ending.’ Thinking so, it was clear that she would have established the engagement between the third prince and the princess without any doubt.

‘But… It’s not a game I’m playing right now.’

I can’t let the princess’s betrothal happen on my own. And, for some reason, thinking that the princess was getting engaged made me feel bad. To think that the daughter I raised with love is engaged to a stranger…

I also smiled bitterly and looked at the queen mother.

“Then, shall we leave this matter to Titania? Even if this match is canceled anyway, isn’t it a match without any problems? Even if the meeting is canceled, the other side can’t say anything.”

“…Why don’t you just say you don’t intend to get engaged?”

The Queen Mother looked at me with a frown on her eyes, but there was a hint of laughter in her voice. I also giggled and replied to the queen mother.

“That is Titania’s choice. I believe that whatever choice Titania makes, she will respect it. Even if she is really engaged.”

“…Yeah, I don’t think that’s going to happen. Even if you don’t, the reason you fought Titania right now wasn’t because of the ‘confrontation’.”

“To say we fought…”

“Yes, rather than fighting, you must be hated by yourself. You know what? The fact that Titania came to visit me a few days ago and that she played with me. I guess you didn’t know?”

“Yes?”

When I asked, surprised by her first sound, the Queen Mother looked at me with a nasty smile on her single single. So, Titania came to visit the Queen Mother behind my back and we played together here? Sneaking up on me?

“Then he told me. That I never want to see you again How angry he was, and he puffed out his cheeks and complained to me, saying he didn’t want to see your face.”

“……Really?”

“Why would I lie to you? The princess got up on my lap and grumbled all day long. With the theme of reducing snacks, he is now trying to abandon himself to another country.”

“Trying to throw it away…”

As I was so shocked that I couldn’t say anything, the Queen Mother clicked her tongue and glared at me as if I was pathetic. She then shook her hand and urged her to leave the room.

“What are you doing if you don’t go soon? Soon it will be time for the princess to sleep.”

“…Then, excuse me first.”

Leaving the queen behind, I hurried out of her room and headed for the princess’s room. She only said that she would meet the princess, but never dreamed that she would think that she would abandon herself with just that.

“Who the hell abandoned you…!”

For some reason, the irritability welled up inside me, and I quickly headed towards the princess’s room. I wanted to look at your face right away and shout out to you not to think of me like that again, but…

“Titania. Please, let’s talk for a moment. Huh? Please, please…”

“……”

No matter how much I waited in front of the room, no matter how much I tried to meet the princess, the princess wouldn’t meet me. I even heard a heartbreaking feeling at the sight of the princess disappearing in front of me as if she was avoiding and running away.

The princess stubbornly avoids me and runs away, to the point where I wonder who she resembles with such stubbornness, and that she has the blood of a human who doesn’t listen to other people in the corner of the room.

So… I wonder if I’m a little tired of the princess who won’t listen to me. I guess the princess needs some time too. I thought of it.

The princess needs some time to organize her thoughts.

I am also busy preparing for the delegation.

After a while, even the princess will listen to me.

As I added the reason

, I thought I should get away from the princess for a while. No, it was not a reason, but an excuse and an excuse.

The princess won’t meet me, so the excuse that she can’t help it.

I’m busy preparing for the delegation, so it’s an excuse that I can’t help it.

Using such excuses and excuses, I distanced myself from the princess for a while. Knowing better than anyone else that the absence of communication is the most dangerous.

So, it was natural for me to regret it.

After this, I regret this. Somehow I had to talk to the princess then. Saying.

Just like that, time passed helplessly, and the morning of the day the delegation was supposed to visit was bright.
