Soaking wet, all three and a half of them entered the palace. The guards all bowed deep refusing to even meet their eyes. Xia, who was naturally friendly, did not understand why. He leaned closer and whispered to his mother.
"It's because we are royalty now. They can't look directly at us," Yukiya explained the basics of palace etiquettes. "I'll teach you some basic palace etiquettes when we reach our room."
Xia timidly nodded.
Right then yin long pulled Xia closer and hugged him softly. "Don't worry too much. They are just paying respect. As for palace etiquettes, you don't have to follow it. It's because even I don't implement up the thousands of rules,"
"Really? That cool." Xia gave her a thumbs up.
Yin long did not understand this gestured yet she laughed aloud. "It's because my husband is partial to me. He is just the best," she boasted loudly.
"Yeah, Long is the best, too. He is my darling, too," Xia chimed with her in glee.
