Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Afternoon when the king and the soldiers arrive at the inner-palace. The king let out a deep sigh before finally entering the green hill palace with Mr. Khut. Pim was the one they met who was in the yard at the time and holding a tray with a bowl of soup and a glass of water. "Good afternoon dear king, I'm glad you came." Pim greeted him with a smile as he bowed. The king just nodded before looking at Pim's hand. Is that for the Imperial Noble Consort Ling?" Ah yes ma'am. He hasn't eaten this morning, he just woke up."How is he?" He asked seriously. it's not well, dear king. He's been sick for a week but he forced himself to paint for a few days until he really fell yesterday." The anxiety in the king's eyes intensified which he tried to hide because of what he heard. Later it turned to Mr. Khut. Mr. Khut, summon Physician Chakru, order the soldiers to bring nutritious vegetables and fruits. You also go to the food department right now and send a nutritionist here." Your Majesty will follow." After that, Mr. Khut complied while the king took the tray from Pim and went to the room of Imperial Noble Consort Ling. Imperial Noble Consort Ling woke up when the king came to him so he was surprised by his sudden arrival. He would have tried to get up to pay his respects but the king hurried to stop him and help him back to bed when he stopped and immediately became serious when he realized what he had done. ehmm … You don't have to get up, your pain will only get worse." Its cold promise. I'm sorry dear king and you have to catch me in this look and condition." He said weakly. The king just stared at him.And that's exactly what you're thinking. It doesn't matter anymore. The important thing is that you get well because I'm not used to seeing you like that. It's better to see you reprimanded and brave than to see you like that." The king ejaculated directly. He just smiled hard because that's when he was suddenly attacked by a series of coughs. Because of that, the king was alarmed and immediately climbed on the bed to pick him up and lean on himself while gently caressing his back while Pim made him drink water because he was still coughing. Due to extreme weakness and also due to severe coughing, he just leaned on the chest of and and rested there until he did not realize that he was asleep. The king just let him rest so Pim left them until even the king fell asleep because he was probably tired from a few hours of travel. A few moments ago, the king became restless because of the noise coming from outside the palace. Later, Mr. Khut came in to inform him that he had returned carrying the king's orders as well as Imperial Physician Chakru. The king slowly laid Imperial Noble Consort Ling to bed for Physician Chakru to examine. In the middle of the treatment, he woke up, so when he took the medicine, the newly cooked food that would help his recovery arrived, which was cooked by the nutritionists he called. Even though the king hadn't said anything, everyone went out to leave the two of them. When everyone was gone the king helped him to lean on the pillows it had arranged behind him before he leaned slightly on the headboard of the bed for his food. He was just silent as he stared at the king. She doesn't know what to do or what to say.thank you--" "Don't be. Just get well soon okay. Now eat this." The king just cut him coldly before he slowly tried to feed him. It was an awkward situation so he tried to speak again.dear king, I-I think I can eat alone, maybe I'm still bothering you …" He was still weak when the king sighed. "No you can't, you're still weak. What's wrong with you, where is the brave and proud Imperial Consort Ling that everyone knows." It was just a sarcastic promise from the king before he was tried again. He couldn't answer because of that and just kept quiet He fell asleep for a while after he ate so he did not know the events. When he woke up it was late at night and he also felt lighter. He even traveled his gaze all around when he stopped because he saw the king in the chair near the window and it was asleep. He stared at it for a long time with alarm and averted his eyes because it woke up and immediately looked at him. It immediately stood up and adjusted its king suit before approaching him. "How are you feeling?" He asked before he touched her forehead for a moment. I'm feeling pretty well. I think the medicine I took earlier worked right away." His response was weak. He nodded before speaking. "That's fine. I'm leaving. I still have a lot to take care of in the palace."A-is that leaving Your Majesty?" You heard me didn't you?" but Your Majesty, only now have you set foot in my palace again after a few months. Your Majesty, we have been talking about the green hill palace for a long time. Many say that it is abandoned. My dear king, I am sure that now I have seen you. of the people who came here, I know they will talk again about whether my palace will be revived or not. If you leave now, they will only laugh at me because you did not sleep here and that only means one thing. " The king was silent when he said that. I beg you dear king, please come here even until tomorrow to save my face from the many people who no longer respect me just because you have lost your favor with me." He calmly but firmly promised. The king just stared at him because of that before nodding. Then I will sleep here tonight. He smiled at the king's answer. He didn't think he could handle it. The next day, the King had returned to his palace where Noble Consort Xiao was waiting in the king's hall. Good morning, my dear king …"Good morning to you Noble Consort Xiao, why are you here?" The king replied that Noble Consort Xiao had just passed by and sat on his throne."Dear king, I am here because I have good news for you."Good news? And what is that? You look so happy? " The king responded again when Noble Consort Xiao approached him. "Dear king, I know you are a little disappointed because the dear queen is pregnant with a princess but you don't have to be sad because you already have the eldest Prince and that will come from me." The Consort promised tenderly and with a smile, so the king was stunned for a moment before staring at him. you're pregnant?" He is a very dear king and my doctor says he is a prince because of his position." He was happy to respond again. The king was pleased to hear that so he embraced the Consort."I am happy then. I am so excited to see my eldest Prince. " He smiled again at this promise before sitting down again. The Consort also just sat in front of him.I will take good care of our future child and myself Your Majesty, that's a promise." Consort said while caressing her stomach. A few moments ago when their happy conversation stopped due to the arrival of Mr. Khut.Dear king, I'm sorry for the inconvenience." Mr. Khut, what is that?" Dear king, the Vice-Premier has returned and has a report from the war." Vice Premier ?!" There was a mixture of excitement and joy in the king's voice because of the name he heard, so he sent Noble Consort Xiao home immediately. After Noble Consort Xiao left, the king immediately admitted the Vice-Premier. "Dear king, good day." Greet this promise with a bow. The king's emotion was inexplicable and it just stood there.Dear king, let me report. I was one of those who followed Prince Ri when he chased the Bouluan Clan and we were able to return successfully only yesterday. " "The and the Prince Ri?" immediately promised by the king. "Your Majesty is alive. He only had to be treated for the wounds he sustained in the camp with the Prime Minister of the Grand empire but they will be here tomorrow. " The king almost jumped for joy as his face lit up because of the very good news he had heard. Then we will celebrate your successful return. I will prepare a feast for tomorrow. You have a reward for your successful mission. " Thank you very much Your Majesty." Then you can leave and rest." Your Majesty will follow." After saying that, the Vice-Premier left. The next day the people gathered at the king's palace for the banquet it had prepared for the successful return of Prince Ri. In his hall came the dear Prince Ri. Even before he knelt down to greet him, he met his brother to hug him. She almost burst into tears of joy because the Prince was alive. "Thank you. Thank you for coming back alive. " He emotionally promised when he could return to his throne while Prince Ri was just kneeling on a carpet in front of him."You have no idea how much I prayed for your return Ri, when I found out that you still followed the Bouluan Clan and a few days of not returning I was very worried. Now that you've comeback alive I wish to give you the reward that you deserve. I promised myself I would give you whatever you wanted. Now tell me what you want to reward my brother, no matter what. " Anything?" Prince Ri's kind of promises are dim.YES, anything." anyone?" courage again Prince Ri promises reason to stop the king from smiling. They were both stunned for a long time and just stared because of what Prince Ri said. No names were mentioned but they immediately got each other's point. Even before they were even more confused with each other the king spoke again. "As that reward, I give you gold and antique artifacts, I also give you the land in the southern and eastern parts of the empire, and I also offer you the East Wing Manor with your palace." This was the king's deredest promise to change their conversation so Prince Ri did nothing and just nodded in acceptance of the king's order.Also, I received a letter from the Prime Minister of the grand empire regarding his desire to marry you to his eldest daughter, Lady Khao. What is your opinion on this, I want to know before making a decision. " Serious but gentle promise of the king. Prince Ri just sighed before answering. We did talk about it Your Majesty but I asked him to let you know because in the end, you will be the one to follow."Consider this as one of your rewards, you can decide it on your own." The king smiled. Prince Ri let out another deep sigh before answering.But it's not just a decision for myself majesty, it's for the whole empire. If my marriage is to further strengthen the alliance and association of our empire and the grand empire, I will follow. "Then you agree to marry the older sister of one of my Consorts?" If necessary my dear brother." Prince Ri's response was serious but calm, so the king just nodded "Then I will prepare for your wedding as soon as possible."It's up to you, ma'am." Prince Ri answered flatly. Then you can go to the party. I'll follow." After the king said that, Prince Ri bowed again and cleaned the king's hall. Even when they were so far apart they could not paint their pale faces. The king sat on his throne for a long time while his mind was deep before he decided to go out and head to the venue of the banquet as he was the only one waiting. To Be Continued…
