She Is Not a Witch: The Girl with the White Rose
"Now, please offer your best wishes to the couple."
The morning light slanted into the hall from the windows, and the hall was full of great nobles from the Green Empire. The candles were flickering, resplendent and resplendent. , and then waited for the arrival of the two emperors.
The hall became very quiet for a while, and many eyes looked at the door, waiting for it to open.
Today is my wedding, and it is also an important ceremony in the empire. In the tradition of the Green Empire, a man and a woman will be regarded as a real adult after they get married, and they will start to have access to power and enjoy respect, but it also means It means that there will no longer be all kinds of preferential treatment when teenagers and girls.
'Frocia, you must mature as soon as possible. ’
Before I got married, my mother reminded me so while sitting in the bedroom.
She smoothed my hair slowly with her hands, spread it out in the sun, looked at it carefully, and stroked it slowly, as if she wanted to firmly remember this color.
When I was very young, I was closely watched by the adults. Although the Landsworth family is extremely prominent, and it is normal for the bloodline of the family to receive attention, compared to my brothers and sisters, my name seems to be more important. Many appeared in their mouths.
In the eyes of adults, this is a good thing, because children who receive attention can always get more love. But children don't think the same way as adults, especially in the Landsworth family, which is known for its many etiquettes.
Because the ancestor was a poet, he preferred literature, painting, and other beautiful things, so he had more requirements on the manners and manners of the children in the family. This tradition has continued and spread throughout the East. After all, the Landsworth family is the East. The leader of the nobles in the world, everyone will imitate unconsciously.
Strict etiquette suppresses a child's nature. For this reason, my brothers and sisters resisted a lot. Of course, they also suffered a lot of beatings and criticism. It's just that when it's my turn, it's different.
"Although you are my child, I still feel a kind of surprise and surprise, as if I got the jewel of the sun." My mother hugged me and described in detail.
I didn't deliberately remember any manners and etiquette. I was born to adapt to this kind of life, like a swallow flying across the water, light and natural.
'Sunsilmaril of the Landsworth family', from then on, the nobles in the Eastern Region began to call me that, and the appearance far surpassing girls of the same age made me attract attention wherever I went, which is a good thing , It is also a distressing thing, after all, no one likes a life without privacy, being watched all the time.
'Since you are the sun, you are destined to be unable to avoid the eyes of others. ’
Once, when I was talking to my father about my troubles in his study, he said this philosophical remark, and it took me a long time to adapt to the eyes of the people around me, and I tried my best to improve myself in literature, poetry, Supernatural skills, music, clothing, manners, voice, etc. are perfect, and gradually let oneself no longer show shortcomings.
But such efforts in turn intensified the effect of this halo, so that my father told me later that many nobles in the imperial capital had heard of my reputation, and the emperor would send envoys to visit me soon.
What this means is easy for the great nobles in the empire to understand.
After my pleading, my father finally agreed to me, rejected the emperor's marriage proposal, and then sent me to school in Emenas, which is the permanent neutral place where the Sage Council is located, even if the emperor's Authority, too, will be suppressed there.
The knights of the family escorted me across most of the empire to this famous academy deep in the Mountains of Sighs.
The life in the college is like the warm manor in my hometown. I no longer have all kinds of elders visiting me here, and few peers disturb my life. Everyone seems to be attracted by another classmate in the class.
For the first time, I was no longer the center of everyone's attention. This feeling was amazing, allowing me to sit in the auditorium and watch the silver-haired girl surrounded by everyone.
Her name is Rochelle, and she comes from a country in the west, a country that was once as famous as Green Green, but it seems to have changed owners recently.
This girl has a different beauty from mine. She looks weaker and more lovable. Her light blue eyes are very clear. Although she doesn't talk much and has a quiet personality, she has an amazing charm , so that the students in the class are obsessed, even I have to admit that this girl does have an extraordinary charm.
Of course, she became the monitor of the class. This is something everyone discussed in private. I also quietly voted for it, and even a few imperial noble classmates who followed me also voted.
When Luo Xier became the class monitor, she had to take responsibility. She would tell everyone about the recent study arrangements and various activities in the class in a soft voice.
The freshmen are all geniuses and number ones everywhere, so it’s hard to say that they don’t have arrogance. In other classes, being a monitor is hard work, unless you can crush all your classmates in terms of identity and extraordinary strength, in order to gain a little respect.
But Luo Xier doesn't seem to have such conditions. According to her own description, she was born as a commoner, and because of poor health, she occasionally asks for leave, and her combat strength is average.
Even though the objective conditions are indeed not good, everyone can't help but like her, and even think that listening to her soft and delicate voice is a kind of happiness, so they are very cooperative with the squad leader's arrangement.
Unknowingly, our class has become the most harmonious group in the grade, and everyone is always happy.
I didn’t know this at first. I thought Emenas was just so beautiful. It wasn’t until I chatted with my brothers during the holidays, and they talked about various things they encountered in school, that I was surprised by this situation.
I am very grateful to Rochelle, because of her existence, I have lived a peaceful and leisurely life for the first time.
You can sit quietly under the window sill of the classroom, slowly read your favorite books, chat with your classmates occasionally, and then under the leadership of the monitor, everyone plans to have dinner there tonight, take a walk and play games together.
I like this kind of life very much. It is like a fish swimming in the water. It is comfortable and comfortable. It is both lively and quiet. You can choose freely.
Slowly, I also started to get in touch with Rosier, and I got acquainted with it very easily, not as difficult as I expected before.
This is not an empire, and not every girl of the same age is like Miss Li in the aristocratic circle. She thinks a lot, is cautious and very guarded. I warned myself, and then tried to be as honest as possible with her. get along.
As I talked more with Rochelle, I became more and more curious about her. This girl is not as simple as a blank sheet of paper as I imagined, on the contrary, she seems to be a kind of clarity and freedom after understanding many things in the world.
Facing all kinds of things with peace of mind, neither anxious nor flustered, under the hot and serious gaze of those light blue pupils, many things were done slowly and unconsciously.
Because of her existence, I began to doubt the teachings of my family for the first time, can birth really determine everything?
It is always fun to be friends with Rothier, watching her talk softly to the horse when she is learning how to ride a horse, stroking the head and neck of the black horse, panicking when she is being licked by the horse's tongue, riding on the horse's back Come on, Luoxier couldn't speed up at first, and she was reluctant to hit the horse under her. I went up to her with a smile and told her that in fact, as long as I pinch the lower horse's belly and give a signal, most of the trained horses will know how to speed up .
During the lunch break, everyone gathered in the quiet hall of the temple, some flicked the strings in their hands, and some kept time at the side, and then under everyone's urging, Rochelle would stand up shyly and close the door. Eyes, sing softly.
In Temple College, hymns are a compulsory course, and Rosier learned so well that the teachers asked her to be the lead singer, saying that it was the best they had ever heard.
I don't know how to judge hymns. I just know that when Rochelle sings, even the birds outside the window will be quiet. I am afraid that only the singers in fairy tales can compare with her. Bar.
With the existence of this girl like a silver moon, I finally experienced the life style of ordinary people, as well as everyone's ideas and hobbies in college life, which corrected many wrong ideas I had developed over the years and realized that What should be the normal standard.
If only such a life could exist forever.
Although my father refused repeatedly, the emperor's will became stronger and stronger. Even I, who was far away in Emenas, gradually became aware of the undercurrents in the upper layers of the empire.
No longer embarrassing my father and family, I took the initiative to return home, began to meet the envoy sent by the emperor, and then, under the **** of the knights, set off for the imperial capital.
Titania is extremely prosperous, even in the rich eastern region, there is no city that can have such a magnificent atmosphere, lively and colorful.
After meeting a few familiar childhood playmates, they told me the current situation of the imperial capital, and then they were brought into the palace by the red-clothed messengers in the Rose Palace.
Passing through beautiful and elegant palaces one after another, turning around beautifully carved corridors one after another, finally arrived at this courtyard.
Father and the emperor were sitting in the white round pavilion in the courtyard talking, while I was sitting under the pergola and watching from afar, waiting for their conversation to end.
The afternoon sun passed through the flower vines and became fine and mottled. The breeze was accompanied by cicadas singing. I was swinging slowly, looking at the green and white flower vines beside my hand, and my thoughts drifted far away.
Marriage is almost a certainty, and the beautiful campus life is over. In fact, after Luo Xier gradually stopped coming to school, the school gradually became boring.
Will she marry someone in the future, and what kind of person will she marry? I began to think about this question, but there was no result.
Just when I was in a daze, the maid at the side walked over to remind me, and then I stood up, lightly blocked the sunlight above my head with my hands, and looked at the approaching blonde prince.
The Crown Prince, Ansair, the fiancé that the Emperor and my father made for me.
After meeting Ansair for the first time that day, life seemed to have changed. The crown prince began to visit frequently, and various discussions began to appear in the imperial capital. They seemed to be older than me. I know, I will definitely marry this crown prince.
Ansair, the crown prince praised by people, seemed a little dazed. I could feel his nervousness when he was talking to me. As the heir to the empire, shouldn't he be a veteran in the social field? He is so clumsy , When I asked my brother this, he answered with a helpless expression of wanting to laugh.
"That's not true, Frocia."
"Although I really don't want to admit it, Ansair is indeed a very good person. I can't compare to him in some aspects. The reason why he is like this in front of you is whether you have forgotten your own charm."
"Let me tell you how outsiders evaluate you, my sister."
"The Sun Silmarillion of the Landsworth family, the jewel in the crown of Titania, the golden hair like the sun, the clear and moving eyes like the lake water, the beautiful and alluring girl, the white future of the empire Queen Rose, Your Highness Frocia."
"Okay, okay, don't say any more, the long-lost feeling came to my heart again, so gorgeous, but so suffocating, there is no dead end to hide." I shook my head.
After knowing the reason, I no longer underestimated that prince, but slowly started talking with him, and gradually I was also moved by this prince, maybe not the perfect marriage partner in my mind, but at least not Bad choice.
If he becomes the emperor, can I guide him to slowly change this country and make it a little bit better, so that he can invite Rothschild to be a guest in the palace with peace of mind in the future.
If I become the queen of a tyrannical king, I'm afraid I won't have the face to be friends with Roxier in the future.
As for the beautiful world she told about, I yearn for it. Although it is very far away, I also want to get closer, so that she won't blame me for marrying obediently like this.
Touching the small glass bottle hanging on my chest, I regretted leaving school early and not being able to spend more time with her, and I don't know if her body has really recovered. , really scared me.
Thinking slowly flowed, and time came to the day of official marriage in a blink of an eye.
When I walked into the hall, I had a sudden feeling, it seemed a little unreal, I just followed the process step by step with the assistance of the priests and ceremony officials.
Finally, the closed door opened, but what walked in was not the father and emperor I expected, but another prince.
The battle started, and although Ansair did not flinch and bravely faced the scene of betrayal, the ending remained unchanged.
Looking at the blood slowly flowing on the ground and the resting face, I understand that the fantasy scene in the hesitation in the past has been completely shattered, and the empire is destined to walk on the road of iron and blood.
The glass bottle shattered, and the water droplets in it reflected the colors of the rainbow in the air, falling into my forehead with little stars, and a cool and clear feeling emerged in my heart.
The flow of the wind, the vibration of the air, and everything around me began to appear. An inexplicable intuition guided me to retreat, avoiding the eyes of everyone in the hall, and gradually disappeared into the candlelit hall while in chaos.
Running fast in gold flower enamel high heels on a white background, I was amazed that I could be so steady without falling down once, and every time I happened to miss the eyes of others and the guards, avoiding it with a kind of wonderful luck. Started a search and left the Rose Palace.
During the war in Titania, I hid in an uninhabited house. The owner here should have gone to the south for vacation recently, and the things inside are perfect.
After spending the most dangerous time in this way, I looked at the glorious crown rising in the sky, and a familiar feeling appeared again. There seemed to be an angel in the sky, and even if I couldn't see the angel clearly appearance, but Rosier's appearance always appeared unconsciously.
Thanks to the occasional gentle silver moon in my life, which allowed me to spend a quiet time and sort out everything about myself.
It has been a few months since I returned to Landsworth's house. At that time, no outsiders were notified, only my father knew.
"It's good that you come back." He stroked my hair, feeling lucky to have found it.
"It's all my fault for forcing you, Frocia, you are always so smart and understand the family's difficulties, but since fate is lucky to let you out this time, then you can freely choose your future life."
"It is to go back to the Landsworth family, continue to be the eldest lady that everyone envies, and then get married and enjoy the glory and dignity."
"Still no longer appear in the eyes of the world, live an incognito life, and gain the freedom and freedom of life."
My father recited the words and sentences in the poem and asked me what I thought in a soft voice. I chose the latter without any surprise.
"It really is a child of the Landsworth family." The father smiled after hearing this, and then continued.
"The ancestors of our Landsworth family have been like this for several generations. They yearn for a comfortable and stress-free life, but as heirs, they cannot let go of everything."
"Then, bravely do what you yearn for, and don't bother with all kinds of responsibilities anymore. Regarding your mission, you have already completed it, and you don't owe the family anything, and we will no longer interfere with your choice."
Hiding away from the eyes of the world, I lived in seclusion in the corner of the Emerald Forest and spent the truly fulfilling time of my life.
Here I learned the things I wanted to do but didn't have time to do before ~IndoMTL.com~ Things I liked but got tired of being asked, things I was interested in but didn't want to be evaluated by others, and so on.
In life, whether it is planting flowers, breeding, sightseeing, walking, painting, writing poems, etc., I have tried all the things Rothier mentioned.
I have to say, she really illuminated the trajectory of my life.
Years and years passed, until a letter was delivered to my hands.
The empire once again came to the crossroads of choosing the future.
Then, what I didn't finish last time, let me do it myself this time.
——I would like to use this poem to miss my friend from the past, Luoxier.
With a pure white unicorn banner on a blue background, I put on the armor to cover my face, held the lance in my hand, and started to move forward, composing the poems in my heart.
