Ok, so it's like this....

An Imperial prince and and a duke's daughter were married to eachother when she was 10 and the prince was 13. Basically kids ya know. Then after a year they manifested and the princess's eye colour turned golden and Prince's silver. The only prince had many works, so do the princess, so they grew apart slowly. Meanwhile the prince grew from a baby to adult very soon. The princess was growing up as well. They we're scheduled to sleep together once in a month and that was the only time they met. When the prince was 18 ( princess 15), one night, prince was forced on drug(ya know what I mean) as he turned into an adult. He didn't know anything about the drug. They're basically sleeping 😴 together monthly as usual. But like always there was milk in the bedroom, they had to drink before going to bed. ( They did drink it since they're 10/13). So that's how they had their 'first night'. The prince at first thought, it was a dream. Cos he liked her since their first meeting. And as he grew up he was lusting for her. But he wanted her to at least reach 18 before doing anything. But the Imperial custome( actually the whole society) was bizarre, he didn't know anything about this. Every young couples went through this. As soon as any prince come of age, no matter how old the princess was, no change. She lost consciousness for 2 days. They both were drugged, unable to know anything. He was so ashamed of what he had done that he couldn't come to even face her after that. Earlier they're actually sweet, I mean before that incident, they always smiled chatted with eachother every monthly night. Like friends, they didn't hate eachother even after the political marriage. They loved eachother in their heart. But the princess was heartbroken that he wouldn't see her face no matter what. But actually, he daily went to see her at night through the window. He stroked her hair every night , kissed her forehead. But nobody knew, she didn't knew. Soon, it was spread that the prince was avoiding princess. The servants started to mock princess, the nobels started to oppress her and the Imperial family to bring another princess( at first concubine, then force the princess to go away). But this didn't reach the prince's ears, because he was busy with works and nobody informed him. The princess cried. But they didn't share bed anymore. But soon the news spread out that the princess was pregnant. The nobels stopped. Everyone was very happy with this outcome. Prince heard this. He was more depressed. He didn't know how to apologize, he knew how hurting a childbirth is. He was afraid of losing her. But he couldn't show his face. He just sent the necessary items to the princess through an officer and continue seeing her at night. The princess thought he would be happy with this news, but he didn't show up. So she thought he hated her, he hated sleeping with her so much that he would never see her face again. At the day of childbirth, she was very painful and drowsy, she almost lost all her sense. The prince hold her hands at the time of childbirth. There were only doctors, nurses and prince at the time in the chamber. Seeing her so miserable, the prince hold his hand and cried, he said all he could, he said "I'm really sorry, if it wasn't for the drug, I would never hurt you like this. No, it was only my mistake. I would've been careful. I'm really really ashamed to show my face to you. But please stay alive. I don't want anything, just your safety. I will never hurt you again...etc). The princess just knew someone held her hands and it was very warm. She was too drowsy to hear what he said. A daughter was born. The child had silver hair and eyes just like him and face as pretty as her. He looked at the daughter and named her. Kissed both the mother and child's forehead. But soon a war broke out and the prince had to join the war. He left. The doctors and nurses swore that they would never say anything about the Imperial family's personal affairs. So they kept quiet. When she woke up the next day, the prince was already gone to war. The person holding hands with her was her mother. She asked where is the prince, they said he had gone to war. She saw her daughter. So peacefully pretty. But nobody said anything about the prince. She thought he disliked her so much that he wouldn't even look at her child. She was happy-unhappy for the next 3 years, waiting for him. Her daughter was 3, as the only heir, she was treated preciously inside or outside the Imperial Palace. The war ended. He was said to come back soon. But this time the nobels started pressing her again to bring concubines for the prince. Her daughter was treated equally precious inside the Imperial Palace, but they started badmouthing/neglecting her outside. The prince come back with victory. He was really happy. But as soon as he came back , he had works and meetings to attend. The nobels pressed him so much that he couldn't spare a minute out of his room. The princess waited for 2 days, he didn't come. He didn't come to see her daughter too. At the 3rd day, the princess could no longer bear and sent him a notice of chart about the beautiful women who would be good enough to be his concubine and told him to choose. They'll enter the palace after the victory party a month later. The nobels passed this to him happily. But....He lost his all reasons after seeing this. He went from his office, the nobels thought he was very happy to see this that he would now go to see them ln his own. But his face saying something different. He asked them what was going on. They said as he hate the princess and the little princess, they 'requested' the princess to bring concubines to satisfy him. He threatened them "Just wait you all, I will see you later." And went out. They thought he wasn't angry, he would reward them after. But he straight went to the princess's palace. She was then playing with her daughter, saying in heart that she has to be strong for her daughter, no matter what happens, she will never give up on her daughter( as the little princess is Imperial heir/blood, she can't go with her mom ) and go outside the Imperial Palace trying till her death . The servants started screaming that the princess told he couldn't enter. But the prince listened neither. He barged in the room. He held the little princess and kissed her forehead,

she asked "who are you?",

"I'm your dad".

"Dad?".

"Yes, My lovely daughter".

"But my mom said my dad doesn't love us"

"It's not true. Baby, I missed you so much."

The princess asked,"Why are you here?"

"Ria...."

"Don't call my name. The prince has no need to pretend."

She snatched her daughter from him and told the servants to take her to the little princess's palace, it's time to sleep.

He asked, "Why?"

"No matter what, I will never let you snatch my daughter from me!"

"What are you talking about?".

"Oh, I see. The prince has gotten the report about the concubines, right."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh, I mean, I will never step back from the position of your wife before my daughter grow up to an adult or before my death. So, just be happy with your concubines for now."

"Ria...."

"I said don't call my name!"

"What do you mean by concubines? I don't need any of them!"

"Don't pretend anymore. It's been 4 years, we've met. Let's have a cup of tea together." "What do you mean 4 years?"

"Oh you don't even remember me and our daughter."

"?"

She cried"After our first night, you avoided me. No matter how much I tried, you never showed up! I got pregnant, you didn't. Even my daughter was born, you didn't! Now, you're showing affection to our daughter huh? We don't need your love or attention anymore."

He hugged her and cried, "I'm sorry Ria, everything is my fault. I couldn't show my face for shame of what I did to you."

"Yes, you're right. Why am I crying? I need to be strong to save my daughter from the society. I need to save my daughter from the cruel society...."

"Ria, I don't know why you thought like this. But it's all my fault. I was with you when our daughter was born. I named her."

"You did ...?"

"Yes. I thought I would avoid you for being guilty, but when I saw the face of our lovely daughter, I realized my mistake. I thought I will never avoid you again. But the war broke out and I had to go."

"Then why didn't you come to see me after you came back from war?"

"The officials and nobels pressed me for work. I thought I will see you after I done and ..."

"But they said you've rejected me and told me to go back when I went to see you with our daughter."

"Who did?"

"It wasn't you?"

"I was dying to see you and our daughter. How could I?"

"But don't you hate me and Lia(their daughter)?"

"No! How could I? I was alive for this 3 years in war just to see you both. You never know how hard days were, but you're my only reason of being alive."

"You're telling the truth?"

"I am."

"But you didn't come to see me after our first night...."

"That's because I wanted to wait for you till you're 18. I didn't want to hurt you. You're so delicate. How could I do this to my 15 years old wife? But I didn't know they would drug me. I'm sorry I couldn't stop myself. I'm sorry I couldn't find out that. I'm sorry for letting you suffer so much only when you're 16. I'm sorry for everything."

"But you could tell me.... the society, the cruel nobels, the cruel Imperial Palace people pressed me so much that you ignore me. They only stopped because I was pregnant. But they started again after the news of your victory, that you're coming back and you need a new wife."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know anything about this. But I will punish them whoever did this to you. I will make them know that you're my one and only wife and how much I love you and our daughter."

"You love me?"

"I do. I have no regrets saying this openly after what I had gone through in the war."

"......"

"I can't lose you again. I need to fulfill my duties as a father and a husband. Please give me a chance to do this and cover the times we had lost."

"......"

"Please, Ria, will you?"

"your concubines...?"

"Oh this paper", he said the report papers he dropped at the floor and picked up then tore it to pieces and told,"I don't need anyone else, I just want you."

"Can you prove me?"

"What?"

"I'm nineteen now. And I want another child."

"......."

"You won't?"

"Ria, if you want, I am dying to love you. I dream of you every night ever since I was 17. But will you be good having another child?"

"I want."

"But it's painful, I can't lose you."

"I survived for the last 4 years and I am enough strong now."

"If you want. I love you , Ria. More than my life."

"I love you too, Louis"

After... that night.... ya know what happens.

The next morning, the prince woke up and the princess was still sleeping. He went to their daughter and bought her.

"Good morning, my baby girl, muah"

"Good morning, dad....."

"Yes, my daughter, call me dad."

"Dad, do you love me?"

"Yes, I love you and your mom more than anyone else."

"Okay, where's mommy?"

"She's sleeping, let's go to see her."

"Yes!"

In the evening he asked his aide to report who wanted to bring concubines and who pressed-neglected his wife and daughter.

After that day, he daily slept with The princess, the 2 of them or with their daughter.

He also threatened palace officers if they lick this out, they'll lose their heads.

His plan was to disclose and punish them at the victory banquet as it will be more fun. But he asked the princess what she wanted.

She said with a smirk, "As long as you're with us, I don't care playing a bit with those idiots."

"As expected from my intelligent wife. I will play with them and to tell you the plan, I will tell them that I will attend the banquet with one of those selected lady for concubines."

"What?"

"It's just to show them. I asked them to make our outfit more outstanding. You, me and our daughter, we'll enter together and show them who is my real wife."

"I see. If you lie, you're dead."

"I know, I will never lie to you again."

"That's what I want."

"Yes."

The emperor and empress, who supported her so much for those hard days were also informed about the plan. As well as the duke and duchess.

It's only coming to fun chapter as they're waiting for the nobels to seek their death.

At least the victory party day has come .

The lady who was supposed to enter with the prince, was told to enter earlier and the prince will accompany her later. She was flying on cloud that she would be the next Empress. So, she insulted the princess in every parties and banquets for the last 4 years. But now she had to enter alone, she was ashamed at first, but then she told everyone that the prince has informed her that he planned a surprise and will attend her later. She was being noisy again.

But then, the prince, along with the princess and their daughter, the little princess, dressing very elegantly and matching outfits, that anyone will recognise who's the real future Emperor, Empress and the little Imperial Princess. The bitxh lady told everyone that he was forced to.

But then, the prince finally opened his mouth.

"Hello,everyone. It's been a while that I had attended a party with the all of you. The last war was exhausting. We lost many of our soldiers. Everyone 3 minutes of silence for them."

3 minutes passed by . He said,"Many things will happen during this party tonight and I hope everyone looks forward to it.

The nobels murmuring about how their estimated daughters will enter the palace and then the bixch lady come forward , asked him, "Your highness, I'm lady z, your highness seems to know me from portrait and I was chosen."

The prince was carrying Lia and Ria was draped hand with him. She still continued. ...

Everyone watching the drama but there's a glow in Ria's eyes that has never been seen after she got pregnant.

The prince patting on Lia's head and said,

"I see, so?"

"I was told that your highness will be accompanying me tonight."

"As the lady can see, I'm here with my wife and daughter."

She snatched Ria's hands from him, make them apart and then trying to hold Lia. Ria was watching the drama without any expressions.

The biach lady said with a arrogant expression and tone,

"Your highness, the crown princess is always neglected, so it will be alright. But I am , the soon to be Imperial consort and my friends are waiting to see us together. So, let's continue together from now."

"Dad..."

"As for the little princess, you should go with your mother. Please don't spoil my night!"

Then she again tried to hold Lia but soon the crown prince hold Lia tightly and step aside. Then he said,

"I didn't know some people treated my crown princess and my little princess so harshly. But now that I see, I don't think I can turn a blind eye anymore."

"What.....":B

Looking at Ria, he again draped his hand with Ria and asked,

"What should I do, crown princess?"

"I believe the Crown prince know better than anyone else."

"Baby, did they treat you badly?"

"Yes, daddy, this Aunt is weird. She always said that she would be my new mommy. But I don't want!"

"Okay, servants!"

"Yes, your highness"

"Put this lady to the dungeon, oh yes after the party ends, she yet has some more to watch."

"Your highness, you can't do this, I am your new consort!":B

"I've never said that I will accept any concubines."

"Your highness, we did for your well-being, the crown princess is unable to keep your heart!":N

"Who said? .....yes, I have no regrets of saying this today that I love my crown princess and I always loved her".

"What......?":N&B

"For whatever tormented my princess for the last 4 years, I'm also faulted. I apologize to the crown princess for not being able to perform my duties as a husband. And also to my daughter, my little princess, Daddy is sorry for not being able to protect you last 3 years. But from now on, whoever torments my family will be considered as insulating to the Imperial family and I will held them responsible for this."

Then he looked up to the Emperor and Empress's seat and said,

"Is it alright, Imperial father and mother?"

"We're glad that our son has finally grown up to see through the society and protect his family."

"The crown princess is also an equal partner to show him his faults."

"Thanks, your Majesty."

"We, will try our best from now."

"There must be a lot of 'works' you have to handle. Baby Lia, come here. We'll see from here"

"Yes, your Majesty"

He hand over Lia to the Emperor

"Did you miss me, my little Lia?"

"Yes, grandpa! I missed grandma too!"

"Aww, our Lia is so intelligent, she already knows how to reply smartly."

After watching Lia completely safe in the arms of his parents the prince then started reciting names of the corrupted nobels and officials, those who harshly treated his wife and daughter when he was absent.

He remarked, "I believe every couple has their rights of privacy. It's just as equal for me. Maybe even more. Whatever happened or happens between me and my wife, nothing concerns you. I will solve it myself. There's no need for you all judge my opinion or press my princess."

"But, your highness...."

He interrupted, "I believe you all know what your faults are. My priority is my family. I choose to fight in war, because I want to protect what I have. Not for you all to judge who will be a better companion to me.....As for those who committed a grave sin by mistreating the Imperial family, will pay for their sin."

Everyone became speechless.... intimidated...

He continued with a long breath,

"I am sorry to my fellow soldiers for ruining the celebration moment. But it was very important for me to protect my family against the imprudent nobels and officials related. When my family was on verge of breaking, thanks to some people, I lost all my reasons. I'm truly sorry."

The soldiers replied fastly,

"Your highness, we all understand your circumstances. We've all seen your longing to see your family in the battlefield. But when we reached the capital and learned about the rumours of replacing the Crown princess , we couldn't believe it. Everyone thought to anticipate in asking what was going on. Now that it has cleared up all the misunderstanding, we all are very glad to watch the Imperial family together again."

Ria's eyes glowed as she heard the remarks about the crown prince from the soldiers. She came forward and said,

"I'm so glad that everyone fought so hard in the last battle to bring us victory. Also I'm glad that you've all been supporting the crown prince for the last 3 years. Please take care of us in the long run of life, we'll do the same as well."

"Yes, your highness."

Crown prince come with a smiling face and said,

"For my fellow soldiers, I know everyone has missed their families for the last few years. So, I won't keep you for long. But I would like to invite everyone with family next week to celebrate with us , with your families. I hope this express my gratitude towards everyone listening to me today."

"Gladly, your highness"

A month later, Ria was pregnant again.

They had a son. The eldest princess Lia manifested as a saint and she chose to live as one. So their son, Rudiger inherited the throne after Louis. They lived happily after. :)
