The King's Love Mission Crosses Time
The Crown Prince's Rejection

A drop of dew fell from the end of the leaves, the morning air gust gently swayed the trees to create friction on the roof of the empress' palace building. Long, plump feathers dust support for her beautiful bead slowly lifted as the eyelids open. The light of the sun slightly sassy through the pillars of the palace building to infiltrate between the windows. 

The empress brought her body to sit, gathering all her wandering lives as she slept. A look of eyes fell on Dayang Shi's loyal head standing at the corner of his bed. Yes, she was a private lady-in-waiting that the empress deliberately brought from her kingdom.

"Sir, it's time for you to clean up." 

The empress nodded then got up from her seat, the plumeria scent emanating from her body did not diminish in the slightest even though she was asleep, her steps gracefully towards the bath space. There some of the maids were already waiting respectfully to welcome his arrival, in their hands each holding the crown prince's bridal gear.

"Please Empress." 

Head Dayang Shi finished checking the temperature of the water in the tub, thousands of petals plumeria flowers have also been sown in it, concoction aromatherapy of the same flower has been poured. 

Two Dayang people helped the empress to sit in the tub, they began to bathe the empress carefully. Once again the speechless empress enjoyed a gentle rub on her body.

Spending quite a long time, now the empress is ready to go to the crown prince's palace, carrying out her role as empress.

"The Empress arrived at the palace."

Two bodyguards opened the door to let the empress in, her eyes rolling in search of her husband. As if understanding, the crown prince's personal bodyguard approached the empress.

"Empress, please come in. The crown prince hasn't woken up yet." 

The corner of the empress' lips was lifted, her eyes were so firm and almost expressionless, not diminishing her honor as empress an edict uttered on her tongue. "Wake the crown prince." His irises turned to Eunuchs standing in the corner of the room.

Without a rebuttal and also an answer, the eunuch immediately stepped in and woke the crown prince, long enough for the man to finally wake up with his pillow face. Awareness slowly returned as his nose smelled a distinctive scent that had always circulated around him since yesterday. A moment later his netra took a sharp aim at the beautiful figure who was staring cynically at him. 

"Saint ! Who allowed the empress into my palace ?!" 

The entire bodyguard looked down including the consort. Ta's bodyguards stepped over to the crown prince's bed. 

"Prince, the empress has the right to enter the palace and take care of all your needs." The guard explained.

"I don't want to be touched by it ! I don't know what calamity the empress brought !" The crown prince's sarcasm was accompanied by a cynical smile.

"Eunuch, help the crown prince clean up. Dayang Shi, order the palace chef to deliver the food because today we will eat together." Let it come back out of the Queen's lips.

"I'm not eating with you!" Prevent the crown prince from stopping Dayang Shin's steps

"Prince, as per the rules you will eat together in the art hall." The Ta Guards exclaimed.

"I don't want to ! Empress, please return to your palace !" 

Without rebuttal, the Empress saluted then twisted her body, but before stepping she said. "Prince, today you go to the library to read a book. I'll wait for you there." The empress continued with clenched hands, if on the battlefield and not the crown prince of her husband. It was certain that once he slashed his sword, then the haughty head would be separated from the useless gallant body.

The sun increasingly dominates the earth, the heat shows charm to the residents, the sting is not as sharp as can be bees but able to burn the skin. 

Inside the library room, the empress sat gracefully reading books on the table, the love of learning did not bore her in the room. Although it feels hot because of the blazing air, his personal Dayang faithfully gives coolness to the empress.

"The Empress, it's late in the afternoon but the crown prince hasn't come yet." 

"We just wait, lazy guys seem to have to be a little harsh, not successful today then there will be tomorrow." 

Dayang Shi let out a slow sigh, the anxiety filled the lines of his face.  "I'm worried about you, queen." Said slowly.

The Empress raised her head and smiled. "I'm fine and will complete this mission. That way King Re won't be threatened with war."

"But what about your life? Seeing the crown prince's extremely resisting attitude." 

The empress' smile was dim, her heart was beautiful not because of falling in love but fear of failing a mission, dying on the battlefield would be better than dying for failing to accompany the crown prince. On the way as empress of this kingdom, many hidden missions besides accompanying the crown prince to the throne. Many lives depended on him, including the king Re — his own father.

"I'll make it, believe me !" A smile was again etched on the empress' lips. Decorate her beautiful face.

"We better go back to the palace, you haven't eaten anything since morning." The suggestion of Dayang Shi touching the empress's arm.

"Well, there's still tomorrow." The queen closed the book and put it back on the table. His slender body came out of the chair then stepped towards the door. 

Dayang Shi immediately opened the umbrella to shade the empress. The group left the library, from the west side of the building there was someone coming out of hiding. Her eyes were expressionless looking at the empress' back that had drifted away. 

"Sir, are you from the library?" 

"Prince Nev, yes I just came from the library." The queen replied with a smile review.

"Together the crown prince?" 

"No, I've been waiting for him there but the crown prince didn't come there might be another bustle." 

"When will we read together, can the empress?" Prince Nev smiled as he asked. He knew that the crown prince would definitely refuse to come. 

"Of course, it's almost evening can I go back to the palace?" 

"Ah, please sorry to interrupt your trip." Prince Nev has left himself to give way. 

The empress smiled once more then continued on her steps.  "Is the crown prince switched to the second prince ?Look prince Nev has manners." Mumbled slowly.
