Go There

I was a little taken aback when I got the letter from the butler. 

Imperial letter? At this time. 

Oh, I forgot about this. This is very important. In my past life, the emperor also sent me a letter. I went there and I came back with that disgusting fake family and a fiancé __This time I need to reject them all. So I won't go there this time. I have to ask for some time.

"Bia,"

I called Bia.

Bia hurriedly replied, "Yes, my lady. What do you need?"

"Give me a paper and a pen. I will write a letter to the emperor."

Bia and Butler both were surprised.

"My lady you didn't even open the letter."

They both said a while later.

"You give me some paper. I will read the letter now."

After saying that, I opened the letter. Like last time, the emperor asked me to visit the imperial palace to see him. But how can I go there now? 

A moment later, Bia came with paper, pen, and ink. I took them from her and after taking them, I started to write a letter.

I thought so much. How can I reject the emperor with good words? After thinking for a while, I got what would I write. 

I gave the letter to the butler and said to him, "Send this letter to the imperial palace. But it will only go to the emperor."

The butler took the letter and nodded. After taking the letter, he went out of the room. Bia was a little bewildered while seeing me like this. It is normal to be stunned. I understand. She didn't see me like this. Will a seven-year-old girl be like this? No, they are innocent and won't be able to do anything. They need people, who will take care of them. But what can I do now? I died once and came back. So I am a little different from them. 

Bia don't be so surprised now. There will be more in the future. But don't worry, I will protect all of you.

"Did butler put all of them in prison?"

I asked Bia. I changed the topic. If she asks me anything, I can't say to her. If she knows, she won't believe me or she will cry when she hears. I don't want to be in an awkward situation when I have so much to do.

"Ah, yes, yes. Butler put them all in prison. They are shouting and crying. Especially, the captain guard. He was pleading to see you one time. How audacity of him?" 

Bia said with a disdainful tone. But the last line she said with an angry voice. 

"Don't worry, Bia. I won't be soft-hearted. But I will go to see all of them."

I said without any emotion. 

"What? My lady, will you go to see them?"

She was astounded.

So she paused for a while and said again with worry, "But my lady, they are not good people. If you go to them, won't they try to use you again?"

"I will go to see them but not now. They need to know what it is like to be used by other people and try to take what's others. I cut their tongue so that they can't be greedy anymore."

I was a little angry when I said. I remember about those treacherous siblings. How dare they covet my things? I was so foolish and innocent that I didn't even know what was malicious and good. 

I will take revenge little by little. Also, Imperial family, I hate them. But I can't implicate any innocent people. So I have to investigate everything. I need to become stronger. I was thinking and suddenly I heard Bia's voice. It woke me up from my thinking.

"My lady, you need to go to the imperial palace."

She said with worry.

"I won't go. That's why I wrote the letter."

I said while looking at her.

"But you can't go against the imperial order. They will take you and put you in prison."

Bia replied with a trembling voice. 

You are so afraid, Bia. Why do you get fear so quickly? 

"Nothing will happen, Bia. Don't worry. If it was an imperial order, then it wouldn't be a simple letter, remember that."

I said without any worry. I know the emperor will send another letter. But dear emperor, I won't go so easily. In my past life, you were the one who put me in that position. I don't know if you were with them but I won't show any favor even if you were innocent. But the imperial family and I won't be friends. Especially, if the first prince became the emperor. But I will save you this time. If you aren't here then who who will punish them? So don't die so easily this time.

I have to go to the library to read some books. Even though I read so many books in my last life, I have to read this life, so that my brain can work so easily. I can't let them take advantage of me so easily.

"Bia, let's go to the library."

I said after thinking so much.

"My lady, you need to take a rest. You were sick so much. If you don't take a rest now then your body will be weak."

She was worried for me.

"But I have to go to the library."

I insisted. She couldn't do anything, so she had to take me to the library. Both Bia and I went to the library.

On the other hand, in the imperial palace.

The emperor's office. The emperor was sitting in the chair and was looking at the document and signing.

Someone opened the door hurriedly and said, "Your majesty, a letter came for you."

"Assistant, how many times do I have to tell you that at that age you can't be so excited? If you die in excitement then where will I find another assistant like you."

The emperor said while frowning his forehead.

"Your majesty, if it was not from that place I wouldn't have excited so much."

The assistant replied.

"That place? From where?"

The emperor didn't understand what his assistant telling him.

"Count Axion, you are not a little boy. So don't do idle chatter. Speak cleanly."

The Emperor said with a heavy tone.

"A letter from Eleutherius estate."

Hearing him, the emperor was taken aback.

"Then why are you standing there? Give me the letter."

The emperor said hurriedly. As if his treasure was going to be taken by someone.

Count Axion laughed at him in his heart. He gave him the letter and was standing aside to see the emperor's emotion after reading the letter. The Emperor does not care about anything anymore. 

Count Axion saw a little disappointment in His Majesty's face.

The Emperor saw the little girl when she was one year old. She was like a little doll. From that moment he wanted a little princess. But his two wives, one is empress and the other is imperial concubine didn't give him any princess. Later, when his imperial concubine gave birth to his second child, he was also a prince. He was sad but the second prince was also looking like him.

The emperor was so excited about the letter because Estelle's father was his good friend. It became a few days after he died. So he wanted to comfort the little girl. But after reading the letter he became disappointed.

"What happened, your majesty?"

Count Axion asked.

"She won't come."

The emperor said with a little sad face. The emperor doesn't show any emotion in his face after he becomes the emperor. But Count Axion was also one of his cousins and his friends like Marquis Eleutherius. So he understands his emotions.

"Can I see the letter?"

He asked.

The emperor looked at him and said with a bad face, "The letter is for me. Why will I give it to you."

As if he was a child and his little doll would be taken away from him.

"Your majesty, I will only take a look. I won't destroy the letter."

Hearing him, the emperor only coughs a little.

"Ahem, it was her first letter writing. Even her father didn't get a letter from her. So you can't make a little fold in the paper."

The emperor warned him while giving him the letter.

Count Axion took the letter while thinking, "How much do you want to treasure a letter from a little girl? I also have a daughter. Can a little child write a good word?"

While talking in his heart, he took a look at the letter. After looking at the letter, he was stunned.

"My goodness, your majesty."

He shouted.

"Why are you shouting? My ear will fall on the ground. Talk slowly."

The emperor was annoyed.

"How can a child's writing be so good? If Etan was alive he would've sung a song every day about his daughter writing."

"I can see that. But read quickly and give me the letter."

"Yes. I am reading the letter."

Their conversation ended and Coung Axion started to read the letter.

 The letter was like this:

 Your Majesty the Emperor, I hope you are well and live a thousand years. I am unable to visit you now. So I hope you will forgive me for my audacity. As you know, my parents just died. I have to be filial to my parents and can't go out of my estate for a while. I will visit you later when I will feel better. I wish you wouldn't hold me accountable to a little girl who wants to be filial to her parents.

 Estelle Eleutherius.

After reading the letter, the count was astounded. 

"Can a little girl who is seven years old write a letter like this? I am surprised. She is not only cute but also more adorable. How can her writing be also so cute?"

The count Axion was become a fan of her. But when he thought of the court officials his face became hard again. 

"But Your Majesty, what will you do now?"

He said with a concerned voice.

"In which matter?" 

The emperor asked but didn't understand what the count meant.

"The empress asked you about the engagement of the first prince."

Hearing this, the emperor's face also hardened.

"Didn't you and Etan have a verbal promise about her engagement? So make it true now. No one can force her to do anything that she doesn't want to do."

The emperor said with a tough tone.

Count Axion also understood what he meant but he couldn't do that.

"But..."

His but was cut by the emperor.

"No, but. The Imperial family and other noble members can't go to the Eleutherius estate without their invitation. But you count Axion has permission and a token that was given to you. So you can go there and talk with the little girl. After talking you will understand what I said."

Hearing the Emperor, Count Axion was relaxed a little. Then he agreed with the emperor to go to the Eleutherius estate.
