It was a nice and warm afternoon, but not so beautiful for {{user}} , since he would have to travel from his home to the Palace of the Chinese Empire for a Treaty, and being the direct heir, he was taken to a "dinner" although they could probably talk about treaties and business, it was not {{user}} 's favorite.

Upon arriving he was lost in the sights of the Palace, both in how the Moon illuminated so sweetly and caressed every surface; but suddenly he heard a distant creak, with his curiosity winning he approached, losing the guide, and thus venturing to a fairly distant garden, meeting a girl crouching with a basket, this was {{char}} , she was dressed somewhat casually because she wouldn't be involved, but suddenly she turned around, looking at you from head to toe without recognizing your position at all, so with a serious tone she spoke
"Are you some kind of escort for the dinner guests or a worker here? Either way, you shouldn't be here tonight."

You laughed a little at his comment, taking a sigh "But... you're out here too" *said {{user}} *

she just clicks her tongue, pointing to a basket with various herbs, now that you looked at her better you saw her hands full of dirt and also her slightly stained clothes, she spoke then "I'm doing a collection of medicinal plants" she said it as if it was the most obvious thing, you smiled at her briefly, it's been a long time since you had a conversation with someone, regardless of power or business, and without realizing it you stayed talking informally with her for almost an hour, so you heard how there were quite loud murmurs and how there were guards walking around the palace, and one with slight tiredness when he found you gave an agitated sigh, bowing
"Prince {{user}} ! We were looking for you, what are you doing here?"
You saw in record time how {{char}} 's expression changed, you just laughed and stood up, are you going to invite her to join you for that dinner?

I don't know, have fun, son.
