Chapter 38

Here's a double update! Sorry to keep you waiting 🥰😘😘️

***

Madame Yoon went stiff. Eversince she got married to General Han, her husband didn't look at any other women because he's rarely at home, in the capital, the Han Manor is the loneliest household because there wasn't any concubine, the place is filled with servants and guards.

But she liked it this way, having more concubine means chaos on asking and dividing the master's time and attention.

Madame Yoon is a jealous woman but she doesn't have anyone to be jealous to and now her son, proposes to her like this.

She can't help but feel uneasy.

Didn't her son wanted to abolish the harem so he will be the first and last partner of the Emperor? Kana clearly knows that having someone next to your man is a maddening feeling.

"Your Grace.. Why?" she suddenly felt her voice turns hoarse.

"I want her to be honorable enough to be the Emperor's mother in law." Kana said like he just spout a good news.

Madame Yoon almost drop her teacup.

"W-what?!"

"It's crucial, The Consorts are now taking actions to get themselves pregnant while I am a male. Even if the Emperor favored me. If I cannot give him an heir, what is my use in this empire?" Kana's voice was filled with bitterness. He don't want to mention that he's drinking some tonic.

"I will at least give him my sister on my behalf."

"Then, you mean.. You mean.." Madame Yoon was lost of words.

"Take Lili with you, arrange a feast once father arrives, I will personally visit, I need you to train Lili about Palace etiquettes." Kana said with finality.

Madame Yoon nodded. Kana wanted Lili to be the first Imperial Concubine.

Lili being a daughter of lowly concubine, she will surely end as one.

"I understand, Your Grace."

"I will personally talk to Bai Wuilan, mother," He turn to Sheen who has an indifferent expression.

"Call Lili and her mother here."

After a while, they get in.

"Your Grace." The mother and daughter bowed.

"Bai Wuilan, prepare yourself for the coming of my father.. You will become his first concubine, but from the outside appearance only, I ask my mother to freed you from the Park family for you to have a good life hence I expect you to obey.. You will follow my mother's orders.. Do you have something to say?"

Kana said in a commanding tone.

He knows that he's being reckless and disrespectful of anyone's life decisions but he's like playing a chess now.. He need to move his pieces for him to win.

Bai Wuilan shook her head.

What else can she ask for? She will be a first class concubine, she will have a free life.

"Nothing, Your Grace."

Madame Yoon smiles at Bai Wuilan.

"Since we will be sisters, I hope you will behave well, Lan."

Seeing the smile of Madame Yoon, Bai Wuilan relaxed.

"This sister will oblige and follow sister's rules."

Kana smiled in content.

"Take Lili with you, teach her proper etiquettes. She will live in the palace soon."

Lili's eyes turns like a wide saucer.

"What do you mean Your Grace?"

"You will find out after I will become the Empress. For now be obedient, you said you will follow whatever I want because I helped you be with your mother.. Lili, this is what I want."

Lili nodded, her eyes on the floor.

"I will definitely agree Your Grace."

"Now, pack up." He ordered Lili and turn to his mother.

"I'm afraid I cannot sent you out mother, it's late for the daily visit for the Empress Dowager."

Madame Yoon hugged him.

"Always remember your status, held your head high and don't let anyone bully you, Your Grace."

Kana nodded, "Whoever will try to bully me will receive an equal payment, please explain everything to Brother Yin and tell him for me to recover quickly he has thousands of troops to take care," Kana step closer to her ears.

"The prince of Yuan owed us mother, when you come back, write a letter for him and tell him this.."

Kana kiss her cheek after he whispered the words and he left with Sheen and Yoongi.

Madame Yoon shook her head in disbelief, this cunning boy is his son? What a clever idea!

Madame Yoon hold Bai Wuilan's hands.

"You will be my husband's concubine, in the surface.. I will give you anything, name, status, education, money, servants, but don't you dare to get my husband.. Or hell will be open for you, Lan." She smiled sweetly.

Bai Wuilan was afraid by that threat but she smiled.

"Rest assured the madame can be calm and peace.. I will do everything I can do except on getting the general."

"Good, good." She sigh in contentment.

She just hope that Kana won't fall on this web trap that he's planning. A mother can hope.

They go back to the Han mansion and Madame Yoon arranged everything for the Mother and daughter who was added on their family. She explained everything to Yin and hearing that Kana arranged this Yin could only nodded and agree.

Bai Wuilan and Bai Lili was given a courtyard inside the Han Manor, servants and necessities, jewelries and clothes.

The training of Lili was arranged also, all what's left is the arrival of the General.

Madame Yoon scribbled on writing what Kana had said on her earlier, seeing that the bird messenger of the Yuan Prince was still there, she wrote this.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid that I will ask your payment now. I arranged a second marriage for the general and I want you to say that the woman was a slave from Yuan Empire and she's the one who take care of the general hence she is sent here in advance once the general recovered, and she has a daughter. I will be filled with gratitude. "

First Imperial Consort, Han Kana."

And end up drawing a sunflower as Kana's seal.

The servants who sees Lili and Bai Wulan before was sent to work on one of their properties to avoid further problems of identification.

Madame Yoon set a drama that Bai Wuilan was a slave from Yuan that was given to the General by the Prince of to Yuan to take care of him in the battlefield base on what Kana had instructed her and anyone buys her drama.

She sigh heavily, and now.. The next move will be up to Consort Han.
