"Your Grace, are you okay?" Sheen asked Kana while he's inside the tub filled with flower petals and scented oils.
Sheen is rubbing a piece of soft cloth in his shoulders and arms, while he's cleaning himself on his lower parts.
"Of course, Do I have any reason to not be okay Sheen?" Kana looked at her with a one sided smile.
"His Highness went to Consort Park." Sheen said in a low voice, hoping not to offend her master.
"Let him be, he will come running here in no time now.. Go and prepare my clothes, I'll bath myself." Confidence drips in Kana's tone, and she dismissed her. "Prepare food as well."
"Yes, Your Grace."
Kana doubted if RM can make it inside the chamber of Consort Park but he trust him, RM won't let him down. Kana don't want to rely on his shadow guards but at times like these, they can be trusted.
He finished his bathing session when he see his hands turns wrinkly.
He already stayed long time in the water.
Kana dress up beautifully and opted to wait for the Emperor, but he didn't came neither RM.
"What happened to them? Ugh this is bad, I feel anxious." Kana walk out of his main chamber and tried to walk on the courtyard when he heard Sheen and Lili giggling on the side behind the thick bushes of flowers.
"Pssst! What are you doing?" Kana catch their attention.
"Your Grace!" both of the female servant straightened their backs and act formally.
"Why are you giggling?" Kana shoved them away and he look at the reason why they are giddy.
It is V, Hugging Jeon on his back while they are talking in audibly under a blooming peach tree.
"You two, go away!" Kana scolded them, turning around to scold the girls.
"We are sorry Your Grace.. But they look cute together!" Sheen said, she's still giggling.
"Like you and my Brother?" Kana said and Sheen immediately shut up.
"Your Grace, we'll go ahead, we are sorry." Sheen bowed after hearing the word "brother".
Kana knows that Sheen adores his brother, and he is sure that he's brother feels the same but in this Era where status is important, Kana is afraid that Sheen will just end up as a concubine, and Chances of her being bullied by his brother's legal wife in the future, somewhat enrage him.
Kana went back inside his main chamber and waited until RM came.
He didn't wait for long when RM came with a slight weird demeanor.
"Your Grace, I did everything you told me and the Emperor was glad that you don't want to share him with anyone. I let him to stay there for another thirty minutes to avoid suspicion, I must take my leave." RM bowed again.
"You can rest, Thank you."
Kana didn't wait for long when Emperor Sunwoo arrive, he has a wide smile.
"My Liege." Kana bowed at him.
"Call me by my name, Kana."
Kana nodded, "Sunwoo."
Kana move to hug him but Emperor Sunwoo raise his both arms.
"Why?" Kana wondered.
"Before we eat, I want to wash myself. I touched something, nasty." Emperor Sunwoo shivered.
Kana nodded.
"I will call Sheen."
"No it's fine, I can go to the bath area alone." Emperor Sunwoo get out of his chambers and head his way to the bath area.
Kana did not wait for long when Emperor Sunwoo came back, wearing his thin white robe undergarment, his long jet black hair was all down, making Kana swoon, Emperor Sunwoo looks more handsome when his hair is down like this.
Emperor Sunwoo kiss Kana in the forehead.
"Let's eat." Emperor Sunwoo lifting up the lid of the food containers, to put food in Kana's empty bowl.
Kana did the same on him and they eat to their hearts content.
"Ahm, Sunwoo.. Can you take V with you to the borders? He will act as my brother's replacement since he is still recovering." Kana said while they are having tea, after dinner.
Sheen and Lili already cleaned everything.
"Sure why not, I think the war won't last long because the forces of Silla are there as well, what happen to your father? I haven't heard of him since I left the border, did V got his seal?"
Kana nodded, he suddenly feel sad.
"Yes, my father personally gave it to him, he was wounded and weak and V said he might not make it."
Emperor Sunwoo pulled Kana for a hug and he smelled so nice.
"Let's clean our mouth," Kana guided the Emperor inside the small bathroom, in the sink, RM had made an organic toothpaste made out of herbs to be used.
After that, they settled inside the chamber, both sitting in the bed.
"I changed the day of our departure to the borders, we will leave tomorrow, I already informed everyone." Emperor Sunwoo hold Kana's hand.
"Will you be okay here?"
Kana nodded, "Of course, I am ready on whatever they plot at me.. My Liege, you are not mad on what I did to Consort Park? I mean, you deserve to have an heir rightful to be your successor."
Emperor Sunwoo pulled Kana closer, he lifted him and have him settle on his lap, legs spread apart. The thin robe of Kana was lifted on the side, showing his creamy white legs.
Kana drape his arms on Emperor Sunwoo's shoulders while their foreheads, touching.
"Why would I be mad? If Consort Park will be the mother of my heir, I would rather want to be infertile, someone like her, her family and her father wanted an heir for political assurance.. Even before you make a move, I am not planning on sleeping with her, not now, not ever." Emperor Sunwoo said with conviction.
"Then.." Kana drawls, "Is it fine if I bear an Imperial child?"
Emperor Sunwoo got stunned.
"What do you mean?"
The idea of having Kana pregnant by his child, excites Emperor Sunwoo. That would be great!
"RM's master in Silla made a medicine like tonic, and it can make a young male conceive if taken daily, but don't keep your hopes up." Kana shook his head.
"Then let's try it now." Emperor Sunwoo said, pulling the tie of Kana's belt.
Kana smiled teasingly, he shouted to the servants waiting at the door.
"You can leave and rest for the night."
Sheen and Lili ordered the same to everyone right after they put extra sheets, towels and a basin of water, outside the main chambers.
