Afzam was silent while clenching his fists to hold back his anger. "Does Brother Zein like her?"

"No, I don't have any feelings for . We married for each other's benefit, what's wrong with you?" Zein asked, surprised by his younger brother's attitude..

"It's okay, I just hope you're happy. I heard that you defeated all your opponents in the match, you got the rainbow sword heirloom?” Afzam said, changing the subject.

"What do you mean? Wasn't the heirloom in my hands from the start? The rainbow heirloom in the kingdom is just an ordinary sword, not a supernatural heirloom sword, it doesn't have any power other than its extraordinary sharpness.” Zein raised his hand in front of his chest, not long after a rainbow sword appeared.

Afzam was shocked to see the beauty of the sword, he really wanted to touch it but was hesitant to do so.

"Since when did you have it?" Afzam asked.

"5 years ago," Zein replied, then put the sword away.

Afzam turned his body around, feeling that there was nothing more to talk about with Zein. "Okay, I'll take my leave."

Zein nodded, he did not suspect anything at all about Afzam's feelings for Arsy, they had only met openly a few times.

Uhuk …

Uhuk …

Zein coughed feeling pain in his chest, his sapphire irises looked up slightly to see a pink handkerchief with a floral pattern extended to him.

"Your Majesty, I think it would be better for Your Majesty to rest and call a physician.” Seeing that Zein did not immediately take the handkerchief, Arsy took the initiative to help clean the blood stains left on the man's lips.

""Thank you," said Zein while holding the girl's hand, making Arsy's heart beat faster and her face flushed red.

Arsy's gaze shifted to the sword in the man's hand, she still remembered that the sword was the sword that had been fought over in the martial arts world.

Zein released his grip on Arsy. "You are very beautiful in that dress."

Arsy was surprised and blushed with embarrassment at the man's compliment. "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Why are you here? Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Zein asked as he leaned his head against the pillar, his sapphire eyes staring at the ceiling of the building.

Arsy sat in front of the man, looking at the fish pond under the hut.

"Nothing, I just want to meet His Majesty."

Zein smiled faintly when he heard the girl's answer.

Meanwhile, Afzam threw his body on his study chair and roughly placed his sword on the table, the man's brown eyes staring blankly at the row of books on the shelf.

"Why did Brother Zein have to choose Arsy? Even though I planned to make her my Empress."

The memory of when the girl met him a few days ago was clearly visible in his eyes.”It's only been two days since I left the Palace, but Brother Zein has already made his move. But I know that it's not your fault, because Brother Zein also doesn't know that I like Arsy.”

""Do you now begin to understand who our eldest brother is?" Jiao Hua suddenly said from the doorway.

Afzam turned his attention to the door of his study room, the door was opened from the outside and revealed the figure of the 7th brother.

Jiou Hua stepped forward without asking permission and approached Afzam with a look of pretend pity.

“7th Brother, what are you doing here?” Afzam asked with a frown.

"Of course, to see my younger brother.” Jiou Hua moved his face closer to his younger brother and said, “Do you want to take back what you should have?”

Afzam looked at the man suspiciously. "What do you mean, bro?"

Jiou Hua moved his head back. “You like that beautiful maid while I want the throne of the Southeast Star, but all of that would not have come true if Eldest Brother was still alive.”

""Do you want to kill your first brother?" Afzam asked to make sure.

"Don't be so rude like that, I wouldn't dare do that. But we will get rid of Brother Zein from the palace, doesn't he like to wander around? Leave him outside the palace and don't let him come back until I become a King," explained Jiou Hua with a grin.

Afzam was very surprised to hear Jiou Hua's words, he did not expect that his sibling would have such terrible thoughts.

"Hey, why are you so surprised? We are on the same side," said Jiou Hua, snapping Afzam out of his thoughts.

Brak

Afzam slammed the table and then stood up from his seat, staring at the 7th Prince with an angry gaze.

"I can't possibly agree to Brother's proposal! The throne belongs to Brother Zein, Brother Zein also doesn't know that I like Arsy and Arsy likes Brother Zein!"

He shouted loudly at Jiou Hua, surprising Ezra who happened to be standing in front of Afzam's study door to deliver food.

"Prince Afzam also likes Arsy? And Prince Jiou Hua wants the throne? I can't just stay silent, I have to go find Arsy and the Crown Prince immediately," she thought.

Ezra immediately turned her body and left Afzam's study room.

"Afzam, you are too naive. Do you think that if Brother Zein finds out that you like that maid, he will cancel the wedding?” Jiou Hua grinned inwardly, seeing Afzam's expression starting to look doubtful.

"Brother Zein is not your biological brother, you and he have the same father but different mothers. As for me, we are of the same father and mother, shouldn't you have more trust in me?" Jiou Hua continued.

The 7th prince smiled in satisfaction seeing Afzam silent with his pupils shrinking.."Just think about what I said, it would be better if you agree with what I said. I'll go first, my beloved little brother."

Jiou Hua turned around and left Afzam's study with satisfaction.

Meanwhile…

In the back garden of the cottage, Arsy secretly showed Zein, the figure of the man with golden yellow hair was like the sun in the midst of darkness.

Golden Yellow Mane waving in the wind with sapphire irises like a cloudless blue sky.

"Beautiful."

Zein opened his eyes hearing the compliment. "Do you really like looking at me secretly?"

Arsy was surprised and immediately looked away. "Sorry, Your Majesty. I really like looking at Your Majesty."

"How do you feel about Afzam?" Zein asked without looking at the girl.

Arsy was shocked to hear the question. "Feelings for Prince Afzam? My feelings are... normal, why does Your Majesty ask that?”

"I feel that Afzam has feelings for you," said Zein, tilting his head slightly, looking at the girl in front of him.

"Ah?" Arsy was surprised and couldn't believe Zein's words.

"Your Highness, you are overreacting. How could Prince Afzam possibly have feelings for me, but..." Arsy trailed off.

Zein looked at the girl curiously, there was a feeling of anxiety about the girl's words.

"I will still love His Highness the Crown Prince even if anyone has feelings for me," Arsy continued.

Unconsciously, Zein smiled faintly when he heard the girl's words. For a few seconds, Arsy was amazed to see that sweet smile.
