I Returned As the Governor of the Country That Abandoned Me - I Returned As the Governor of the Country That Abandoned Me chapter 48

48 – To the older brother, older brother, younger siblings

[Family is like that. Even if they fight while blushing, they reconcile and smile as if it never happened.]

“Your Highness the Crown Prince. I will go in.”

“Keuheum.. Come in.”

With the prince’s permission, the attendant serving him went inside.

“Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince.”

“Welcome..”

The prince sitting on the bed to greet him. The prince, who was sitting on the bed, was writing something on a piece of paper.

“Your Highness, this is…”

“It’s a letter to my younger siblings.”

[When someone strays, they catch each other and become a strong support for each other.]

The prince said as he carefully folded the letter. It seems that all the contents are written down.

“If so, can I deliver the letters to the royal grandchildren?”

“There is no need for that. You will read it naturally someday.”

The prince smiled softly and said. One day you will read it naturally. There was no way that the attendant who followed him did not know the meaning of the prince’s words.

His attendant calmly bowed his head.

“How is that? It is the will of Heaven that people live and die.”

He said with a soft smile. As if nothing was wrong. But how could it be anything? In his eyes, he clearly had a lingering attachment to life.

[So don’t hate each other. Be each other’s strength. Cry with me when you’re sad, laugh with me when you’re happy.]

“What is the schedule for today?”

“There is no big schedule. Everything necessary was taken care of by His Highness, the 2nd Prince.”

“I’m sorry that you seem to be putting a heavy burden on the second child.”

“The second prince won’t mind.”

“Yes. Maybe the second one would suit the position better than me.”

The prince said bitterly. He thought that maybe it would be better for the strong and clever child to become the crown prince than the weak himself.

“You want to go outside.”

“No. Preserve the jade body..”

“This is my last request.”

The prince said with a smile. Last request. The prince has always been counter-threatening like that, and has been making unreasonable requests to the attendants every day.

[We are a family. A family is an existence that trusts and supports each other and always becomes an ally.]

“Where would you like to go?”

“Go to the palace where the second prince is staying.”

In the end, in response to his counter-threatening, the attendant said as if there was nothing they could do. The two of them exited the palace of the crown prince and headed for the palace of the 2nd prince. Covertly and quietly. The Crown Prince did not want to disturb his younger brother busy with his state affairs.

“Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince!”

The prince arrived at his palace before long. Recognizing him, the guard of the prince’s palace greeted him.

“Don’t make too much noise, just open the road.”

“Okay! I will inform His Highness that the Crown Prince has arrived!”

“There is no need for that. Don’t bother disturbing busy people.”

The soldiers who open the front for the two. The prince slowly entered his palace.

‘It’s been a while.’

I came often when I was healthy, but I couldn’t come often after my health deteriorated. In his palace, which he had come to after a long time, nothing had changed.

“Your Highness. Excuse me..”

When I was walking in the palace of the prince, it was then that the attendant pointed in a certain direction. The prince carefully looked in the direction he pointed.

[If family members can’t trust each other, who should we trust? If you can’t even trust your family, how can you trust others.]

“Yosef..”

The place where his gaze reached was the 2nd Prince, Josef von Prodentea.

While he was taking a break, his younger brother was sitting on a chair in the garden with his eyes closed. He just looks at his brother from afar

I couldn’t help but watch.

“Sorry, second.”

The things he is doing are originally things that he, the crown prince, should have done. However, because he was ill, he couldn’t do anything, and instead of him, the 2nd prince was handling everything.

“Forgive your ugly brother.”

He has a younger brother who has followed him since he was little. The age difference isn’t that great, and when we were young, we often fought, but as we got older, we became close enough to share our worries and have a drink.

‘I haven’t been able to do that lately.’

2 The prince was taking over the prince’s job, so he didn’t have enough time for that. No, maybe this is an excuse. He just had no face to see him doing his job.

[I don’t know if I’m qualified to say this to me, who leaves you guys first.]

2 Beginning with the prince’s palace, he slowly went to see how his younger siblings were doing.

Your first sister liked flowers.

Her second sister loved books.

Your third sister liked animals.

Your fourth sister liked embroidery.

Your third brother liked swords.

Even though they were family, I didn’t know what they liked or what hobbies they had. It wasn’t until the time of death came that I found out what you guys like.

And last. The prince headed to the palace where his youngest sister was staying.

‘LeSain..’

Among his siblings, she is the only half-sister. However, the prince never thought of her as her husband, not even for a moment.

[Forgive me for leaving you guys behind first. As an older brother, please forgive me for not fulfilling my role as an older brother properly.]

“5 What does the princess like?”

“I’m sorry to inform you, Her Highness, the 5th Princess, likes a knight named Aran von Robertein.”

“Isn’t that a fact known to all members of the Empire?”

The prince smiled and said. Aran von Robertein. The man who stole her sister’s heart, the irreplaceable knight of the Empire.

“Not the Aran Knight. Is there anything you like materially?”

The crown prince prepared the last gift for his younger siblings. According to the things each younger brother likes.

I prepared the garden. He prepared foreign books, rare animals, embroiderers and famous swords.

And the last remaining sister is the 5th princess. He wondered what she wanted.

[I believe in you guys. I believe that one day you will understand each other and love each other.]

“I apologize, but Her Highness, the 5th Princess, does not prefer material things.”

The crown prince still looked at his youngest sister from afar. Does that child really have nothing to like?

5 I could see the princess playing around with her escort knight, Ellen. How could she, the princess, play with a mere knight?

5 It caught my eye to see the princess talking with her maids and smiling. How could her maids laugh and chat with the princess?

The prince couldn’t understand her like that. But after a while, he was able to understand.

‘You seem to have liked people.’

Finally, her own youngest sister liked the guy. A child who likes people like that, how frustrating must it have been in that small palace with few people.

‘It’s my fault.’

It’s her own fault for neglecting that child. The prince certainly thought so.

“That child’s gift will arrive when I die.”

“Don’t say that.”

She likes Aran von Robertein. When he dies, he will return to the empire as governor of Hylan. With that, I can give that child a present.

Is this my sin? Is my death the only way to give that child joy?

After confirming all of his younger siblings, the prince moved to return to the prince’s palace.

The setting sun slowly begins to set. The flames of the sun, which were gradually extinguished, seemed to symbolize her own life, and she was afraid of the coming of the night.

On the way back to the prince’s palace. Was it because I was disturbed by the sunset? For the first time, the prince confided his feelings to the attendants.

“Actually, I mean. I am afraid of death.”

[That’s why I’m not afraid of death. Because I know that you all trust and depend on each other and can fulfill your role as a family.”

“I am still alive.. There are so many things I want to do..”

[Therefore, I no longer have regrets in life. Because I know that you guys will achieve the things I couldn’t do.]

“I want to draw the future of this empire with the children I have seen… “

[The future of the empire depends on you. Even without me, if you all join forces, the empire will become richer and stronger.]

“Also, I am afraid that I will be forgotten by those children.”

[Forget the dead me. The death of a family member should be sad, but you shouldn’t just be sad. Put aside your sadness for a while, and protect the rest of your family for the sake of the empire and for you.]

“Ah.. I wanted to have a meal at the same table as those kids..”

[And someday, if we meet again in the afterlife, then let’s laugh and drink.]

The prince said through tears.

“I don’t want to die.”

[This older brother, brother, will go first and smile, waiting for you guys.]

“I have a request for you, will you listen?”

The prince, who wiped away his tears, spoke to the attendant who was silently listening to his story.

“Please tell me.”

“There is something I didn’t write in the letter. Please pass that on to those children.”

“Yes. What are you talking about?”

At the attendant’s question, the tearful prince said with the brightest smile he could.

“I love you.”

[I love you. My brothers and sisters.]
