I'm here to save the world, what are you doing?

"I'm looking forward to seeing my sisters, too."

Octavia leaves the palace.

Kokwus watched his daughter leave, his fingers gently stroking the portrait of his late wife on his pocket watch, and sighed helplessly:

"My dear, everything is beginning to happen as you said. Not only Plotina, but also Octavia has been... "

Thinking of Lucius, the emperor's eyes suddenly became sharp.

Quack, you born evil little Clovis devil, enjoy your last happy moments!

When you come to see me tomorrow, you will definitely have a hard time!

............

The inner court of the imperial palace, the residence of the third princess Plotina.

This exquisite little palace is located on the east side of the imperial palace and is surrounded by lush gardens.

Plotina was leaning on the soft couch by the window, reading an ancient book, her slender fingers gently turning the pages.

The sunlight shining through the window shone on her long black hair and cast a hazy halo on her deep gray eyes.

"Your Highness, the First Princess is here to visit."

The maid's voice made Plotina look up, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

Is my sister here?

She had received news from the affairs officer that her elder sister, who had been missing for eighteen years, had returned to the imperial capital. To be honest, she did not feel much, after all, her elder sister had been missing for two years when she was born.

However, she was also prepared for her sister to come and see her, but the time was much earlier than expected.

In her expectation, after finishing the conversation with her father, sister Octavia should go to see her twin brother Tiberius first, then go to see sister Maria, and finally come to see her.

But now it seems that this imperial sister has chosen herself as the first target to visit?

While Plotina was wondering, Octavia had already walked into the room.

The two princesses looked at each other, and time seemed to freeze.

Plotina looked at the legendary sister and seemed to see the shadow of her mother in a trance.

"Hello, Sister Plotina."

Octavia was the first to break the silence, her voice gentle and kind:

"I'm Octavia, your sister."

Plotina put down the book, stood up gracefully, and performed a standard court greeting:

"It's so good to see you, sis."

"I remember when I was little, my parents were always sad whenever they talked about you. Now that you're back, a long-cherished wish has finally come true."

Octavia stepped forward and gently took her sister's hand:

"Sister, you are more beautiful than I imagined."

Plotina smiled slightly:

"Thank you, sister. You are a true beauty, just like our mother."

"Really? To be honest, my memory of my mother is already very vague."

Octavia spoke softly, a trace of sadness in her eyes:

"I left Splenda when I was very young, and I wasn't even able to be with my mother when she died."

Plotina's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes:

"Yes, my mother's death was so sudden that none of us were prepared."

"Come, let's sit down and talk."

Octavia suggested with a smile, the sadness in her eyes replaced by tenderness:

"Sisters shouldn't have so many restrictions. We have so much time to make up for."

The two sat down on the chairs by the window, and the sunlight shone on the two princesses, outlining beautiful silhouettes.

"By the way, sister, do you know where I came back from?"

Octavia asked casually.

Plotina blinked, her expression normal:

"I heard you came back on the Orient Express with the young master of the Clovis family?"

"Yes, Lucius Thurianus Clovis."

Octavia nodded, her eyes full of approval:

"The son of the Guardian of the East, a young man of extraordinary talent."

Plotina's expression froze slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

"Judging from the outside world's reputation, it is indeed the case."

The feedback that "Jian Distraction" gave herself showed that Octavia had no ill will towards her, only kindness and curiosity.

But Plotina didn't understand why the other party mentioned Lucius to her.

"Do you know Lucius?"

"do not know."

Plotina avoided her sister's gaze and subconsciously gathered her hair.

"I saw it a few times from a distance when I was a child, but that was a long time ago."

A sly glint flashed in Octavia's eyes:

"Really? I met him in the East. Our experiences were as wonderful as the stories sung by bards."

Plotina pursed her lips and didn't respond.

"My dear sister."

Octavia smiled mysteriously and continued:

"I think Lucius has a special kind of magic that is hard to resist. Once you are infected with him, you will never forget him."

"What is my sister talking about?"

Plotina became increasingly confused, her fingers subconsciously clenching the hem of her skirt.

"Oh, sorry, something just suddenly occurred to me."

Octavia waved her hand and changed the subject:

"By the way, my father said that he intends to arrange a marriage between you and Lucius?"

"Yes, this is what Father meant."

Plotina nodded slightly.

"Will you marry him?"

"Royal marriages have never been about personal will."

Plotina answered calmly, seemingly indifferent, but deep down, there was still a hint of joy hidden in her.

Octavia noticed this detail and a meaningful smile appeared on her lips:

"Did you know? When we were in the East, Lucius often mentioned his childhood sweetheart, Nora Berenhill, who lived far away in the Imperial Capital."

"Every time the memories between them were mentioned, his expression was as sweet as if he had eaten a piece of candy."

"Oh yes, he also has a secretary named Ivylia by his side. She is also a stunning beauty, and she is inseparable from him every day..."

"As your fiancée, I'd like to know what you think about this?"

"..."

Plotina bit her lower lip lightly, pretending to be nonchalant and shook her head:

"I don't have any opinion. It's his own business."

"He's the one being criticized. If he doesn't care, then why should I care?"

Plotina: ??????

Lucius, why do you mess with so many girls?

Even if I tampered with your memory, you still haven't forgotten your desire to become the harem king?

Why is this so...

If, if I could stay by your side forever, I would definitely turn you into a good man who would be devoted to me.

But I can't even do such a simple thing...

A tide of sadness surrounded Plotina.

"Wow, you're really generous, sister."

Octavia smiled softly, retracting the effect the gift had on her sister's emotions.

Then she stood up, walked to the window, and looked down at the roses in bloom in the garden:

"But then again, sometimes the good things in this world can be shared, don't you think, sister?"

Plotina: ???

Sister, what does this mean?

This should be considered explicit, right?

Does my sister also have feelings for Lucius?

"Y-yes, sister."

Plotina forced a smile, pretending not to know what Octavia was talking about, and simply responded to her.

"It was nice talking to you today, sister."

"I'll come here often in the future."

"After all... sometimes, sisters need to be of one mind to gain an advantage, right?"

Leaving this puzzling remark, Octavia left, leaving Plotina alone in deep confusion and anxiety.

At the same time, Plotina discovered that there was a photo stone on the chair where Octavia had sat before.

Out of curiosity, Plotina activated the photo stone.

Then, she froze in place as if struck by lightning.

In the still image shown by the photo stone, his sister Octavia was lying in Lucius' arms and kissing him.

In addition, this picture actually has a soundtrack——

What if I fall in love with your husband?

"What if your husband falls in love with me too?"

"Sister, please stop crying so loudly."

"I will never let him suffer any injustice."

...

Plotina: ???

82-Lu Ge lied to me, this Nora is not scary (4K)

At Splenda Central Station, sunlight shines through the huge glass dome, casting dappled light and shadows on the platform.

The noble sons from the East gathered around Lucius, waiting for him to give his final summary of this long journey.

These young faces have already established deep friendships and loyalty during their past journeys, and at this moment their eyes are full of respect and expectation.

The time to say goodbye has come. After today, they will return to their respective clansmen in the imperial capital.
