Longing Across Three Lifetimes

"Princess, Princess, His Highness picked the peonies the Noble Consort loves most."

"If His Highness likes them, then dig them up and plant them in our courtyard."

"Princess, Princess, His Highness threw General Li's daughter into the river."

"So what if he did? She can climb out herself. What's the big deal?"

"Princess, Princess, His Highness set the study in the Third Prince's residence on fire."

"Is it a big fire? If not, go help it along. Don't come back until everything's burned down!"

"Dear~ Be a good boy and listen to me from now on, and I promise I won't punish you again."

"Mm, I promise! I'm the best-behaved, aren't I, dear?"

"Mm, you're the best-behaved."

"Dear~ You haven't paid any attention to me for almost an hour. Now I'm upset. Hmph!"

"That's all right. I'll cheer you up."

Whether you've gone mad,

or become a fool,

as long as it's you, that's all that matters.

This time,

let me be the one to cherish you.

Long time no see, my Prince Ning.
