Chapter 31

Chapter 31 Your Majesty … take a rest. It's going to be morning. You've been drinking for a while." Mr. Khut spoke calmly to the king because since he left Consort Xiao in the garden he has been drinking wine."Imperial Noble Consort Ling … where is he?" H-ho? Your Majesty at this time, he's probably in his room and still asleep."You think I don't know that ?! What I'm saying is if he showed up here at the palace !!!majesty, h-no." No ?! Hahha !!! It's impossible the rumors about him and Prince Ri haven't reached him yet!"I don't know Your Majesty but according to our soldiers he did not leave the green hill palace today."Huh! Hahaha! I can't believe it!" The king ejaculated sarcastically before gulping down the wine again. "Your Majesty … I know your mixture is not good today because of what you have discovered but you still have important things to do tomorrow. You will still meet with the chief general of the northern border and also to visit Concubine Lhan as agreed . " I can't forget about that! Leave me first and sleep if you want!"I'll follow you, Your Majesty." It was afternoon when the king arrived at the northern border where they met with Concubine Lhan's father who was the chief general of the army guarding the said border. They talked about border security and other things. After the meeting Concubine Lhan approached him.My dear king … how are you, you have finally visited me here. If it weren't for the meeting, you might not have fulfilled your agreement to visit me here at Green Valley Palace." Tender but with a sullen voice in its promise. Please be patient with me. I'm really busy in the inner-palace so I don't have a chance to go out to visit you." "Hmm, I understand dear king. I'm just sobbing but please don't think I'm really sulking." Its smiling response. "Thank you so much for that." He just promised coldly while his face was blank, which is why Concubine Lhan immediately noticed. Your Majesty, you seem to be thinking deeply, is there a problem?" The king sighed before giving him a miserly smile. "Does that smile mean yes? You know dear king I have an effective cure for your problem so that you can somehow forget for a moment."And what is that Concubine Lhan?" Hunting dear king! It's still early, a few hours before dark so let's go. One more thing I would like to witness how good an archer you are." This promise was lively, so he smiled even if it was just sparingly. And where did you hear that?" He asked curiously but at the same time smiling.My father told me that he had been serving your father in the empire for a long time." Smiling again at this promise. eh you, are you good at shooting?" Hah me? Of course your majesty, am I still !!!" It was bragging about this joking language so they both laughed. Moments later Concubine Lhan stopped laughing and just stared at him. Oh, what surprised you?" He asked curiously. No dear king. I'm just glad you're here and with me at last." Smiling at this response. What are we?"Yes?"Hunting?" Ah really? Then that's fun! Let's go!" His response was happy so he laughed too. On horses the king and Concubine Lhan came out with the soldiers out of the Green Valley Palace towards the vast woods outside the palace.Light and darkness seize when they return to the palace from hunting. The chief general prepared a feast for the king so that the king could not return to the inner-palace immediately. After the meal, there was more drinking and fun, so Concubine Lhan decided to prepare the king a room to sleep in because he was drunk and dangerous when tonight he went home to the inner-palace, especially since it took a few hours to travel back there. . Later he approached the king who was sitting in the hall and still holding a cup of wine. "Dear king, come. That's enough." He calmly promised after taking his cup. Concubine Lhan, it's you." The king promised drunk after staring him in the face. "Yes dear king. Come and I have prepared a place for you to sleep. I will take you there." He calmly promised again before escorting the king into the room he had prepared for it. When the king lay down, he was asleep due to drunkenness, so he took a basin of water and a cloth to wipe it and put on a white nightgown and white nightgowns. As he sat on the side of the bed he first gave it a look and was about to stand up when he held the king's arm. "Where are you going?" This promise is why he was surprised.dear king, you're awake. I would have gone back to my room to sleep." He replied. "Room? Why isn't this your room?" Surprisingly, the king promised that the whole room was still wandering. "No dear king, I also thought that you would just sleep in my room but-- but you are drunk and can't decide if you want me to sleep with you tonight or not so I decided to prepare another room for you to sleep in. . " The king just smiled at what he said but the strong effect of alcohol was still obvious to him. Why are you smiling majesty?" To his surprise, the king arranged to lie down and leaned slightly on the headboard of the bed. "Come …" He told her and gestured with his hands so he obeyed and sat leaning on his side. You know, I think you're what I need right now." He smiled before letting out a heavy sigh so he was surprised. Your Majesty … You seem to be breathing deeply and your eyes are dim, do you have a problem with your wives now?" How did you tell my wives I had a problem?" Because that's not what a king looks like if the problem is only about the empire or politics. Anger should be seen on your face not sadness like what I see now in your eyes." The king smiled again at what he had said before getting serious again Awesome, I didn't know you had that kind of talent either. I remember someone with you." Someone? And who is that, Your Majesty?" The person I'm the reason why I'm like this." Then one of your wives?" His language is still calm.You know, these are the times I need to talk like him, these are the times where I need his advice but how can I do that now if he's the cause of it all." "And those other wives?" He asked curiously but he just grinned and shook his head. "My queen is someone I can't talk to about this thing because the truth is she doesn't care about others. As long as her position doesn't move she doesn't care about others. Consort Xiao on the other hand is very cunning and aggressive. She has a lot of aggressiveness. secret intentions so he's not the person you want to ask for advice. Consort Lawana, on the other hand, is young and doesn't know much about things. " The king's long litany made him smile. "Then Imperial Noble Consort Ling is the one you are referring to Your Majesty?"that's how you think so I'm thankful I'm here now so I can talk to someone somehow." The king added to what he said so he smiled. "Then I will help you forget your problem even tonight, Your Majesty …" He made a weak but seductive promise before he let go of the king's arm and instead knelt here in front of him. The king just stared at what he did. He just returned it with a sweet smile as he placed his hands on its neck. He then lowered his gaze to her lips and gradually applied his lips to hers. After that confrontation they first stared at each other until they understood each other followed by reapplying their lips but this time it was more aggressive because the king had already retaliated. Later, the king pressed him to his waist so he began to move his body to wake up the sleeping manhood of the king under him while they continued to share a passionate and deep kiss. After what happened to them they were both tired in each other's arms covered with blankets.They continued their conversation earlier. "You know dear king, instead of punishing yourself for thinking about something you're not sure if it's true or not, why don't you just be brave and ask Imperial Noble Consort Ling everything. Why bother with a problem? if you're not sure if this is really a problem? " The king was silent then and just closed his eyes.A few days since the king returned to the inner-palace he had not seen Imperial Noble Consort Ling. He also did not go to Green Hill palace. Until one day, when he couldn't stand it he went for it too.Where's your boss ?!" The king's question in a loud voice immediately after entering the green hill palace caused the servants, especially Pim, to be shocked and frightened. he's in the garden, ma'am …" He replied with low looks. The king immediately obeyed and went to the garden. Imperial Noble Consort Ling was surprised by the king's sudden arrival but he still smiled before speaking. Majesty, good morning " he greeted in surprise and was about to bow when he was even more surprised because of the sudden grab of the king's arm. That was so tight that it hurt him. "K-Majesty-- n-I'm hurt."Let's talk inside!" The king promised angrily and dragged him inside so he could almost be dragged. He pushed her away so she fell down on the bed. "Your Majesty, why are you so angry?" The king just smiled at what he said before giving him a glaring look."Is that really that hard huh ?!" "Your Majesty … I can't understand you …" He said calmly after standing up to face the king. "You don't understand me? It's impossible you don't know the rumor that's spread throughout the palace today."Ah … About that, you know." She just said flatly reason to grant him the questioning look of the king. It didn't seem to believe what he was saying. "You know that I know what the truth is but that's just your reaction ? "What should I react ?!" "You really don't care about me! You don't care what I can feel because of the truth I found out!" He was only swallowed up because of what the king said before he looked at the emptiness because he could not bear to look at the king. "Your Majesty-- I don't know what you expect me to do or what my reaction should be but I won't discriminate." What ?! So you admit that everything is true ?! "Like I said, I won't deny that." Why ?! Why are you like that hah!" "Your Majesty-- I won't discriminate because that's the truth, why, do you want me to deny all this ?! "Why don't you do ?!" "What? Why, is that what you want to hear from me? That that's not true?" "If necessary, why don't you do that ?!" "For what, to save myself and let my servant face death for lying? Or to help you lie to yourself that we didn't really have a relationship with your own brother ?!" "Imperial Noble Consort Ling !!!" The king just ejaculated angrily at what he said. "Your Majesty, what you have learned is true and I will not deny it because in spite of everything, you need to know that." he replied emphatically with courage. The king was only wiped out by what he said. She sighed and glaring eyes looked at him. "In that case-- tell me … y-the man you kissed on the beach that I saw, is that Prince Ri?" clench his fist at this emphatic question. yes, s-he is." His courageous response in a low voice caused the king to close his eyes in restraint before speaking again. "Now tell me too-- last night you came home to visit your family, I've witnessed you slept with another guy … w-was that also him, my b-brother?" yes, it's h-him …" He said weakly but it was warm to the king's ears so he automatically raised his hand so that he could lay his hand on him which he was so scared of but he was able to control himself and was just stunned by fist. I could see the anger on his face and even his body that almost trembled with anger. Argus, w-I don't have a reasonable reason k-why I did those things to you as well as lying so I don't know what to say." He calmly promises. The king just nodded with his sarcastic grin before giving him a glaring look and walked out. He just fell down on his bed with his forehead covered when he was stopped because of Pim's entry who immediately bowed in front of him. dear Imperial Consort Ling, p-please forgive me. I didn't mean to betray you. I was afraid of what Consort Xiao might do to my family. I'm sorry …" he cried Pim while still kneeling in front of him. He took a deep breath before reaching for it to stand up. "Pim … I understand why you did that." He started calmly before standing up and going to the window and there focusing his attention. Thank you very much Your Majesty. Thank you very much …" Pim immediately said that he was just standing behind him. The truth of the matter is that I am even grateful to you because you put me to sleep and let the dear king know the truth because I was almost mad thinking about how I would confess to him. Now that it has been revealed that everything is as if I had been pulled by a thorn. in the chest even if the replacement is also a grief. " "Dear Imperial Consort Ling …" Pim only said that his eyes were still dim when he faced him. But Pim, that doesn't mean I've received what you did. Pim if something like this happens again, tell me right away. Let me know you have a problem, I'll help you as much as I can promise. "I understand, Dear Imperial Consort. I'm sorry again." "Pim, you know you're probably important to me. Here in the empire, you're the only one I trust. Please don't betray me anymore." calm but he made a strong promise. Pim nodded immediately. "Promise Your Majesty, promise me. Just give me one more chance for you to trust me again." "Pim I'm not saying this because you're a servant. I'm saying this because I don't just consider you a servant, you're a friend and younger brother to me so I trust you and I'll also protect you if you need help." Pim just hugged him because he said that. When it loosened of him he turned again to the open window and took a deep breath. "Dear Imperial Consort, the dear king, you are very angry. W-what are we going to do, what are you going to do now?" Full of concern, Pim promised to hold her arm.We're not going to do anything Pim. The blazing fire will only get worse if we keep it burning." "W-what do you mean?" "Pim, whether I chase the king or not, nothing will change. I still sinned against him. He is very angry now, if I follow him I also have nothing else to say but what really happened as he found out and just repeated that truth will hurt him. "I understand dear Imperial Consort." He didn't respond and turned back to the window with his arms folded. To Be Continued…
