Michelle pov :
I was in my chambers when one of my lady in waiting approach me.
Leilin : Your majesty, pardon me from disturbing you, but there is something important happening in the Western empire.
Michelle : It is no problem but what's wrong ?
Leilin : The princess of the Eastern empire has arrived this afternoon.
Aliyah : Oh her ? I heard that she is just a mere daughter of some lowly Viscount and slave . Ha ! She even has slave blood, how can someone like her be a princess then again a heir to an empire.
Isabella : Oh me oh my, don't talk like that when the princess is around and don't you know not to talk about the Eastern empire especially the imperial family.
Aliyah : Why not?
Isabella : The emperor and empress, especially the empress hates it when you talk about the Eastern imperial family. So do not mention that name so commonly. The empress have bad blood with the empress of the Eastern empire, you might get executed in her courtyard if you talk about that so plainly.
Leilin : Enough both of you, can't you see the princess is not happy about this subject.
Michelle : It's okay, I'm thankful of your thoughtfulness.
Isabella : If you don't mind me asking, what's wrong with the empress and the Eastern imperial family.
Michelle : You see my mother was previously the empress of the Eastern empire. But then the emperor decided to divorce her over a mere mistress. The only one who help my mother was none other than my father. And that's how she became the Western empire empress.
Aliyah : I see as it is a hard topic to talk about I will not mention it anymore.
Isabella : As do I your majesty. I offer you my sincerest apologies.
Michelle : It's okay, just a hard subject to talk about, but overall I'm fine. Still though it doesn't change the fact that she's here after all soon it will be new years party after all I'm exited to see what she will do then.
