《Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)》Page 124
Advertisement
Emperor Claudius sighed painfully and regretfully that one of his imperial sons did not make it! The living first son was named Andrew and the second son that did not survive was named Anders. The latter was buried in the Imperial Mausoleum of Sky Empire. The Emperor forbids any information about his dead son from spreading. As much as possible, he does not want Empress Alyna to be sad and the only living Prince Andrew to be guilty of his brother's demise since it was unintentional.
Many years passed, the Emperor and Empress informed little Prince Andrew that he is intended to marry the General's daughter. Since he is intelligent and mature for his age, he secretly read books about marriage to know what it is and he found out that marriage seems to be a very serious, tiring, and boring obligation and commitment so he immediately told his parents that he does not want to marry! He wants to remain single all his life but his parents told him that as a prince of this empire, there are things that he could not avoid like his marriage to the General's daughter... He helplessly sighed and thought how could he make the General's daughter not marry him instead.
Little Beatrix entered the Sky Imperial Palace together with her parents because of the marriage arrangement. Little Prince Andrew silently looked at the pretty little girl in front of him... He could not take his eyes off her as his young heart beat wildly for the first time! He wants to approach her and talk to her but the little girl hid behind her parents!
She does not like me? Why?
He thought and felt something strange and unpleasant in his heart but he is too young to determine what it is. He silently thought about the serious, tiring, and boring obligation and commitment called marriage.

She does not like me and probably does not want to marry me... I should be happy because marriage seems to be a very serious, tiring, and boring obligation and commitment but why do I feel so sad and empty inside?
He could not help but pout as he thought about it while his young heart felt strange emotions... Later, he realized that he wants her to like him because...
I do not know why! I just want her to like me!
So one day, he approached his Imperial Father. After he formally greeted him, he immediately asked.
"Imperial Father, please tell me how do you show your feelings to Imperial Mother?" Little Prince Andrew curiously asked his Father Emperor.
The Emperor was stunned and became speechless for a moment. If his son asked him about court, politics, and military issues, he could easily answer it but his question is a tricky and sensitive topic!
This is very hard... How will I explain it?
"I just express it through actions!" The Emperor vaguely replied.
"How?" Little Prince Andrew probed deeper, his eyes are full of anticipation and excitement.
The Emperor wants to cry but cannot! This is one of the easiest questions with the most difficult way to answer!
"How, Imperial Father?" Little Prince Andrew excitedly nudged his Father Emperor who became silent for a long time.
"Can't you see I am so busy?!! I have several works to do!!! I do not have time to answer unnecessary questions!!! Go now!!!" The Emperor chose to act angry as he embarrassedly made his overly curious son out of his study room.
Little Prince Andrew went to his Imperial Mother's courtyard next. He greeted her first then directly asked his pressing question.
"Imperial Mother, please tell me, how do Imperial Father show his feelings towards you through actions?" He immediately asked his Mother Empress.

The Empress was very stunned! She became speechless for a moment... The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward...
How can I tell a child about that sort of thing? It is not appropriate for his age yet...
"Ahem! Why do you want to know?" She faked a cough and tried to divert the topic.
"Imperial Mother, please I am curious... I want to know how Imperial Father shows his emotions through actions." He asked again.
The Empress realized that her son would not let it go so she tried to answer.
"The Emperor... His Majesty... My Husband... Your Father... He..." The Empress did not know how to proceed so she became silent again...
This is truly the hardest question I encountered! What should I do?
The Empress did not know whether to laugh or cry at this time! Now is the time that she did not like her son is so smart, so curious, and so mature for his age.
"Yes, Imperial Mother... How?" Little Prince Andrew nudged his Imperial Mother to answer his question. He hopefully and silently waited for what she will say next...
