A servant secretly walked up to a tall, handsome man and whispered a few words in his ear.
Although the man's face was filled with sorrow, a sliver of joy flashed across his eyes. Without batting an eyelid, he dismissed the servant and sighed softly. He walked to the side to a woman with a delicate face who was secretly wiping away her tears.
"Eldest Royal Sister," the man called out softly and handed a brocade handkerchief to the lady.
The lady took the brocade handkerchief and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Eldest Royal Brother … Fourth Royal Brother is really too pitiful. He's only 13 years old … Why … Sigh …"
The man and the lady were the Eldest Prince of the Eternal Dynasty — Ling Feng and Eldest Princess Ling Qiong.
Just yesterday, the Fourth Prince of the Eternal Dynasty had suddenly passed away from illness. A grand funeral would be held today.
The Fourth Prince was the Eternal Emperor's youngest son. The Emperor doted on the Fourth Prince very much and even disregarded the ministers' opinion that the Fourth Prince was too young to be the Crown Prince. He had insisted on making the Fourth Prince the current Crown Prince of the Eternal Dynasty more than a month ago.
However, no one had expected the Fourth Prince to die so suddenly.
The Emperor was extremely grief-stricken, and the Fourth Prince's birth mother cried herself hoarse. The other princes and princesses immediately headed to the imperial city to attend their younger brother's funeral.
"Fourth Royal Brother is really pitiful. He's already so … sigh … Eldest Royal Sister, don't be too sad. If you hurt your body and mind, Father will be worried." Ling Feng comforted her softly.
The Eldest Princess Ling Qiong wiped away her tears and nodded gently.
Ling Feng scanned the surroundings discreetly from the corner of his eyes and then whispered into Ling Qiong's ear, "The distinguished guest has arrived."
A strange look flashed across Ling Qiong's tear-filled eyes. However, it was as if she had not heard it at all. Tears streamed down her face as she cried uncomfortably, and her face turned pale.
"Eldest Royal Sister! Eldest Royal Sister! " Ling Feng looked at Ling Qiong, who had fainted from crying, and was shocked. He hurriedly carried her and sent her to be treated.
The ministers could not help but sigh when they saw the Eldest Princess cry herself to death because of the death of her younger brother.
Only one person had a cold smile on his face.
It was a woman with a cold and elegant face. Her appearance was extremely outstanding and she had a noble temperament. She watched as the Eldest Prince and Eldest Princess left. There was not a hint of a smile in her eyes, only coldness.
"Third Royal Brother, Eldest Royal Sister is truly in love with Fourth Royal Brother. The way she cried just now was truly heartbreaking." The cold and elegant woman suddenly turned to look at a man with a peerlessly beautiful face standing beside her.
Ling Yan lifted his eyes slightly and smiled at the cold lady in front of him. It was the Second Princess of the Eternal Dynasty, Ling Yue.
"Eldest Royal Sister has always doted on her younger sisters-in-law. She must be extremely distressed about the Fourth Prince's matter today."
Ling Yue chuckled. As she looked at the composed Ling Yan, her smile involuntarily turned colder.
"Third Royal Brother has always been intelligent. Third Royal Brother should know what happened to Fourth Royal Brother. Eldest Royal Brother and Eldest Royal Sister have always been good friends. Didn't they invite Third Royal Brother to stay for a few days in the Lao Li? Why has Third Royal Brother completely forgotten about it now? "
Ling Yan chuckled but did not reply. He merely glanced at the direction where the Eldest Prince and Eldest Princess had left, and a trace of a smile flashed across his eyes.
