“Mrs. Weaver?”
Unexpectedly, it was Mrs. Weaver. Amy had sent food to her room earlier, knowing she and her son must be tired from their long journey. What could bring her here?
“I have something to tell you.”
Mrs. Weaver stepped forward, whispering something into Amy’s ear.
“What did you say?”
Amy’s eyes widened in disbelief.
“It’s wine from Cammoa.”
The Crown Prince’s eyes bulged as Amy placed the goblet of wine before him. How had she managed to bring it so quickly?
‘Surely, she’s just pretending.’
The Crown Prince skeptically took a sip, then choked on it.
“What’s the matter? Isn’t this your favorite?”
Amy looked at him with wide, fierce eyes, her smile only on her lips. The Crown Prince dabbed his mouth with a handkerchief, sweating.
“No, no… of course. I always enjoy it…”
His stammered response only deepened Amy’s sinister smile. The Crown Prince typically preferred sweet, low-alcohol beverages. Liking this wine? Hardly. Amy then sharply turned her eyes, dropping her facade.
“Then you must know. It’s definitely authentic.”
Fearing her intense gaze, the Crown Prince quickly nodded. But Amy wasn’t done yet.
‘I’ll make sure he never dares to challenge me again.’
Suddenly, Amy’s expression drooped sorrowfully.
Certainly, here is the English translation of the Korean paragraph you provided:
“His Highness the Crown Prince was concerned about his younger brother who had risen to a high position. However, His Grace has not held his position for long, so if any issues arise, it would be my fault for not serving him properly. It is only natural to be chased away from the Crown Prince’s residence, they say.”
Upon hearing those words, flames flickered in the Crown Prince’s eyes.
“No, I have never heard such… Who dares to utter such slanderous words!”
“Who would dare utter such words in front of Your Highness? But they seem to find their way to my ears quite easily.”
“If such a thing had happened, you should have spoken up sooner, you…”
The Crown Prince looked helplessly at the bewildered Amy. She let out a deep sigh as if she understood everything.
“Now I can rest easy without hearing such insults. It seems like I was just greedy, as the rumors suggest. Anyway…”
With that, she raised her hand to stop the Crown Prince who was about to retort and put on a sorrowful expression.
“But if you display such behavior at the banquet after coming all the way here…”
The Crown Prince was taken aback. As Amy raised her eyes and stared at him, his gaze faltered.
“…That would be my fault as well, wouldn’t it?”
…
In this tangled situation, he rolled his eyes anxiously. Then, as he looked around with an uneasy gaze, he suddenly noticed his half-brother, who was staring at Amy with an expressionless face.
His heart skipped a beat.
The Crown Prince stared at Noah with a trembling gaze. In his mind, he recalled the reason why Noah had to come here.
“There are rumors that the instigator of the rebellion that started in the South has blue blood.”
Suddenly, the Empress, who had secretly summoned the Crown Prince, uttered these shocking words.
“Blue blood, meaning of noble lineage, isn’t that impossible?”
The Empress turned away from the Crown Prince, who vehemently denied it.

She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
