I Became Crown Prince's Wife
The White Dragon the Murky bag.5

“Oh! How can newlyweds make food for others!”

Baekhan's face reddened.I only cooked a little, so why was he so surprised?

I thought he was a mean little boy, but he was funny.

"I made it for you specifically, with no meat in it."

"Are you cooking for the Crown Prince as well?"

“Yang Mulia is training. I'll give him food when he finishes training.”

Ever since Blake came to his senses from his stupor, he had started to work harder in his sword practice.

“Give this to the Crown Prince as well. I won't eat it.”

He didn't take the chopsticks, and refused my cooking.

“...do you hate dumplings?”

"It's not like that…"

“Tell me if there's anything you want to eat. I'll make it for you. I'm pretty smart at cooking.”

"no need. I won't eat your cooking.”

So it wasn't about cooking, she just turned it down because it was my cooking. To be honest, I was a little surprised.

"Do you hate me so much?"

"No no!It's not like that!"

He shook his head in embarrassment.

"Then why?"

“...you don't know, yes?”

Baekhan sighed.

"About what?"

“... White Dragon is easily jealous.”

"Jealous?"

She suddenly grabbed my shoulder, looking straight at me with her beautiful eyes.

"You're so pretty."

"...why are you saying that all of a sudden?"

“If I eat the food you made, I'm sure the White Dragon will be angry.Do not misunderstand.”

Baekhan explained the situation clearly. It's not because of me.

"I understand. I'll trust you.you don't hate dumplings, do you? Then, I'll ask the chef to cook instead. ”

"Do you want to?"

“The tea was made by a waiter, Melissa, so will you drink it?”

Baekhan nodded his head. I put the tea cup in his hand.

"Thank you."

He wrapped his hands around the teacup and downed the tea in one gulp.

“This jasmine tea. If it doesn't suit your taste, I'll prepare another one. ”

“No need, it is better than Taekri.” tea

“What is Taekri tea?”

I've been looking for a lot of creative cooking books in this world, but I've never heard of 'Teh Taekri'.

“Do you not know? People drink Taekri tea every day in the Chang.” Imperial family

"I've never heard of it."

“Huh, it's a pity that you don't know the taste of Taekri tea. If Eunhan becomes Emperor, I will send it to you.”

That is to say, in the end, as long as Eunhan goes to Chang, I will get whatever I want in return, whether it's about the Blake curse, the stone slab or even the tea.

“Why did you choose Eunhan? Is it because you two are childhood friends?”

"I'm not cool."

He put the tea cup down violently. Did I offend to say that he chose Eunhan as Emperor because of their relationship?

“Silver is a Heavenly Dragon! I dare not choose him!”

“... Heavenly Dragon? Not the Black Dragon?”

“What do you mean Black Dragon!My brother was chosen by the Heavenly Dragon! He is the Emperor chosen!”

It's the opposite of what Eunhan said, but Eunhan won't lie to me.

"Then why did the Chang Empire try to kill Eunhan?"

“At first, the Sky Dragon and Black Dragon had similar forms. The former high priest took advantage of it to fabricate a lie. He wanted to make his nephew the Crown Prince, so he tricked everyone into thinking that Eunhan, who was the Sky Dragon, was actually the Black Dragon.”

Even Eunhan's mother thought her son was a Black Dragon, so deceiving others was easy.

“What happened to the former high priest?”

"He died. The White Dragon could not forgive him for expelling the Heavenly Dragon from the land of Chang, so I was chosen. When I was chosen by the White Dragon, even though my family did not have the qualifications, everyone was shocked. But I know what the White Dragon means. The White Dragon expected the return of the Heavenly Dragon. They chose me to complete the task.”

There was a hint of sadness in Baekhan's eyes.

“So you're wrong to say I chose it. She is the reason I was chosen.”

"I'm sorry.I don't know.”

"It wasn't your fault. Maybe because my brother didn't tell you.”

He sighed and took another cup of tea.

"Does anyone else know that Eunhan is a Sky Dragon?"

“The Imperial Family knows. I have no choice but to know. The Sky Dragon had a black rain cloud. He gave this power to the chosen one to face the rain.”

Eunhan is not an unpleasant Black Dragon.

“After my brother left, there was a severe drought in Chang. People were filled with hatred, and the Imperial family was about to collapse. If this continues, the Empire will soon be destroyed.”

“….”

Chang's Fall…

I think Chang was destroyed because of a fight between hundreds of heirs, but not because of that.

In the original novel, Richard killed Eunhan when he tried to avenge Tenstheon.

When Eunhan, the Heavenly Dragon, loses his life, Chang loses his successor and goes down a path of destruction.

I thought I couldn't send Eunhan to the country where the destruction would happen, but instead.

If Eunhan does not return, Chang will perish.

“Even at this time, many people are dying. Only Eunhan can save Chang. Your Majesty, please help us.”

“I haven't seen Eunhan in a long time. He wouldn't listen to me even if I told him to go.”

Even if Eunhan is the Heavenly Dragon and can prevent Chang's destruction, I don't have the strength to persuade him.

"No. He will listen if you persuade him.”

Baekhan's certainty was somewhat frustrating.

I was about to say it again, but Baekhan suddenly staggered.

“Baekhan!”

"I'm fine."

He stood up, refusing my help.

“I don't have much time. I'll give you ten days. If Eunhan can't be persuaded, just assume we don't have a deal.”

***

Don't have much time?

While I was in my room, writing a letter to Diana, a shocking shadow of Baekhan kept popping up in my mind.

Is he sick?

He was a cruel little boy who threatened me, but was still worried.

Then suddenly, I heard a loud noise outside.

"Go home now!"

"No! I'll never go home alone.”

Eunhan and Baekhan were arguing.

"Do you really want to die ?!"

“If you're worried about me, why don't you go with me? brother, how long do you intend to disobey Heaven's will?

"If you want to die, then you are free to do it!"

I opened the door and exited, and just then, Eunhan rushed out of Baekhan's room.

As soon as Eunhan saw me, she lowered her head and tried to return to her room. I held him in a hurry.

“Wait, Eunhan, can I talk to you for a minute?”

"Yes, Your Majesty."

I'm headed to the greenhouse with him. The greenhouse was full of Blake's favorite red roses.

"Your Majesty, do you have anything to say?"

"I heard you two arguing in the room."

"I'm sorry for causing the disturbance."

“No, I'm not angry. I just have a little question.”

“Please ask.”

“What Baekhan has chronic disease?”

"No, he doesn't have."

Eunhan shook her head without hesitation. He doesn't seem to be lying.

"But didn't you say his life was in danger?"

“People chosen by the Dragon cannot leave the land of Chang. The White Dragon, in particular, was under strong control. If he continued like this, his body would gradually weaken. But if he returns to Chang, he will be fine.”

I realized the reason why Eunhan was in such a hurry to send Baekhan back to Chang. That was also why Baekhan said he had no time. At least it wasn't a life-threatening illness, so I felt relieved.

"By the way, is it okay for you to leave Chang's land?"

“I'm fine... because after all I've been ignored.”.

"That's not because you were chosen by the Sky Dragon?"

Eunhan was surprised.

"... Where did you hear that?"

“I heard it from Baekhan. If you die, Chang will be destroyed.”

"That's disgusting."

Eunhan swore harshly.

“I was told to die for Chang, and now they're saying that it's all a misunderstanding. After killing my mother for the sin of giving birth to an unlucky child, they asked me to come back. No matter what, my mother is dead. They disgust me.”

I stood beside him as he expressed his anger.

“I don't care about Chang's fate. In fact, I'd rather Chang be destroyed. I will never set foot on the ground Chang.”

Eunhan had always been polite and reserved, but now she gritted her teeth to suppress her unbearable anger.

I couldn't get her to go back to Chang when she just told me about her deep-rooted grudge.

Eunhan's hatred was even deeper than I imagined, and even though I knew the situation, I couldn't force her to return to her homeland.

I don't think he'll change his mind in ten days.
