All stages of learning have passed the crown prince well, now the man is ready to ascend the throne, the presence of the empress means a lot to him. The woman is serious about her role. The alternating tributes came for the empress. Either sincere or not.
Tomorrow the crown prince becomes king, all preparations are almost perfect. The elderly and active ministers are still waiting for tomorrow.
"Empress, you really did direct the crown prince well." Prime Minister Ma invited the empress to come to the art hall.
"That's my job prime minister Ma"
"If it wasn't for your interference, there was no way the crown prince could be what he is today. Can catch up in learning from the prince of Nev." This middle-aged man smiled faintly.
"That's what I should do. Since the future of this kingdom is in his hands, as a future queen, I must ensure the supply of the crown prince to become king."
"You're right empress, I trust your abilities. Not only wind news, but I saw very clearly how agile an empress trained the crown prince. This is a new history in this kingdom." The prime minister's smile seemed to humble herself to the empress.
"Who am I no more ? While the teacher reserved for the crown prince was below the ability of the second prince's teacher."
The face of prime minister Ma turned flat, the fake smile that was presented was gone already. Has the empress gotten anything all this time ?
"You misunderstood the empress, their teacher was the same "
The empress thins a smile. "really ? Unfortunately that doesn't look like that."
"It seems like our meeting is quite today, please stay here because soon Concubine Ve will be visiting you." Prime Minister Ma said goodbye to resign.
The queen's iris eyes took a sharp aim at the prime minister's back which slowly drifted away. On the steps of the lady-in-waiting Shi directly approached the empress, the look on her face looked anxious.
"Emer, you see the suspicious behavior of prime minister Ma ? I'm sure the crown prince has been in his influence all along."
Empress smiled. "Darang Shi, the crown prince was not in his influence. But it is in the child of threshing than it should be. Look at what he has given to the second prince. Very much different. It is not taboo anymore in a kingdom there is a fortress called. It's not all a conspiracy."
"You're right." The woman immediately retreated after seeing Ve's group of concubines approaching towards the hall.
From afar, the smile of the late king's concubine curved perfectly. Although beautiful but still the previous queen became the winner. The plenary beauty of the late queen was well known at that time. Concubine Ve landed the body next to the table facing the empress.
"Well, it's unexpected that the empress expertly plays the lute. Your quote produces a beautiful melody, someday I'll learn to you." Ve's concubine was amazed by the skill of the future queen.
"You're overreacting, I'm just learning too." The empress put the lute to her side. Those smooth, wiggly fingers reached for the flower tea cup. The typical movement of the nobility is very stunning, seen from his procedure to lift a glass and drink it.
"Are you ready for the coronation tomorrow ?" Ve's concubine took out a box that had just been handed over by her personal ladyboy.
"Sure ! Isn't tomorrow the long-awaited day ?" The Empress's bead scanned the golden-colored city before her.
The Empress grabbed it and opened it and saw the contents inside, there was a beautiful necklace there. It's just that the queen candidate doesn't seem interested.
"I'm sorry, I can't accept it because what I wore at the coronation ceremony was already prepared by the Queen Mother. And all are descended from the late queen." The queen pushed the box back.
"Sorry for that, I don't know." Ve's concubine slightly cursed her stupidity. Because honestly, he doesn't know that.
The conversation was quite long, many things they discussed from the crown prince, the late king and queen to even the second prince.
The gentle breeze signaled that it would rain, in the sky the black clouds began to gather in a moment it would blow up the water. However, Ve's concubine had not yet moved from her seat. The middle-aged woman seemed to have no end to the topic.
"The crown prince arrives."
All attention was directed to the owner of the name, from a distance the crown prince's entourage entered the art hall area. The man grew older every day, his handsome body getting closer with a thin smile on his lips.
"Prince." The Empress brought a standing body to welcome her husband's arrival.
"Sir, I'm looking for you in the palace. Apparently you're here. Are there many guests today for you?" The iris of the crown prince's eyes glanced towards Consort Ve who was smiling warmly. As usual, the crown prince's cold attitude did not melt
"Yes, is there anything you need?" The empress sat back down to follow the crown prince.
"Nothing, is there any need to wait to visit my own queen?"
"I'm sorry, prince." Empress smiled. Her hands directed toward pouring flower tea for the crown prince.
"Prince, empress. Looks like it's gonna rain. I'll go back to the palace." Concubine Ve felt a little neglected.
"Please, we'll also be visiting Suri's mother soon." The smiling empress felt uneasy from focusing too much on the man beside her.
"Don't get too close to her."
The words of the crown prince seemed to say that he did not like the late king's concubine.
"She's the King's concubine and soon you'll have a concubine if I don't give you a baby."
"I won't have a Concubine, then I'll spend the night in your palace from tonight. That way you'll quickly give birth to my successor." An infuriating smile was imprinted on the crown prince's lips.
There is no more cold and stiff between the two, they are like a couple in love with each other. The empress could always color the once bleak days in the crown prince's life.
