The next day, as if he had been carried by the wind, my uncle left the palace, leaving me to think amidst these struggles and contradictions, while also developing a strong longing for freedom.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdjdiV4CF8w

What I desire is not power and glory, but freedom—just like my untethered uncle, carefree and free to explore the world at will. I began to understand that this palace was not the life I wanted. Therefore, I made up my mind to give up the opportunity to inherit the throne.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMqktgTUiL

The day I made up my mind, I requested a meeting with my mother. That evening, I stood before her, took a deep breath, and said the decision I had made: “Mother, I’ve decided to leave the palace and give up my inheritance rights.”102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YXL0mzwxg

She was stunned for a moment, a flash of surprise passing through her eyes, followed by a deep silence. She did not immediately answer me but quietly looked at me, as if contemplating my decision. “Are you sure?” she asked.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddOsu4rMRD

I nodded, feeling no regret in my heart. “Yes. Because I am not pursuing the throne. I don’t mind who becomes the ruler, and I don’t need power. I long for freedom, just like my uncle. I believe a life without constraints suits me better. I want to pursue a life that belongs to me outside the palace.”102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0Sm6aBkqc

She remained silent for a moment, then gently smiled, “Of course, you have the right to choose your own life, and freedom is indeed something worth cherishing. Since you’ve made up your mind, go ahead!” Her tone carried warmth and understanding.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5AV1fATpgm

The next day, I packed my belongings and left the palace, with my mother and sister seeing me off. My sister even declared, “I will definitely inherit the throne! When that happens, you must come back for my coronation!” Hearing her ambitious words, I smiled brightly at her from the bottom of my heart, wishing her a prosperous future.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivxNHHufec

In that moment, I felt an unprecedented sense of release. I will not become the Empress, perhaps I have given up this responsibility, but I have gained something far more important—the right to choose.102Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zFEx9AUnh
