A Kind Goblin's Bird - Chapter 38
About two hours after Court Lady Yoon, the Empress’s closest aide, knelt down in the yard, Sa Heon-yeong, King Mun, appeared. His hair was loose and he was wearing only a long robe, but no one dared to discuss manners with him. He was the absolute ruler of this royal family.
“What’s going on?”
“The Heavenly Lady is looking for His Highness King Mun.”
Court Lady Yoon raised her head at the direct explanation towards King Mun.
There was a strong smell of a love affair. A long wound was visible through the open long sleeves. His childhood wound was covered with red scars. It must be the trace made by Queen Mun.
King Mun, who felt her gaze touching him, said voice.
“I asked for the purpose.”
“I came here to inform you, following the orders of Her Majesty the Empress. Right now, she is commanding King Mun to enter the palace with the Queen.”
Hahaha, King Mun burst into laughter.
But no one laughed. The atmosphere was chilly. King Mun’s eyes were not smiling either. He tilted his head and looked down at Court Lady Yoon, who obediently bowed her head.
“My mother is calling me, so I have to keep the morality of being a child. All right, I’m going to the palace now.”
Court Lady Yoon was puzzled and raised her head again.
It was two hours. Two hours she had to listen to their affairs in the yard. The queen seemed to struggle with his power, but King Mun comforted her and continued their love affair. And eventually.
‘Wife? Young-ah? Are you sleeping? God, you can’t sleep on me like this.’
King Mun came to say this. But the queen said nothing. It must have been the end, whether it was a sleep or fainting. It was then that King Mun reached his climax alone and then appeared in the yard. So the queen wouldn’t be in a situation where she could possibly enter the palace.
Whether Court Lady Yoon was puzzled or not, King Mun burst into a sharp smile and went back into the queen’s bedroom. Then the maids quickly followed after him.
Seeing King Mun reappearing half an hour later, she couldn’t keep her mouth shut.
King Mun was walking down the hall with his wife in his arms.
“Your, Your Highness.”
No way, Court Lady Yoon woke up hastily. Queen Mun was asleep. Her attire was, of course, perfect.
It was natural. The queen’s maids must have not been unaware of how to dress her up. It was said that King Mun loved her, but the queen’s belongings were nothing but extravagant. Her diamond earrings twinkled.
“Your Highness, are you sure you want to go this way?”
“Can I not obey Mother’s orders?”
Was he going to enter the palace holding the sleeping queen? This is unprecedented. Court Lady Yoon was unable to continue her words and only flapped her lips, but King Mun lightly kissed his wife. It was kissing her through the mask, but his figure could tell without a single word how precious she was.
King Mun climbed into the carriage while holding his queen. Court Lady Yoon was required to ride the same carriage by law. So she had to watch King Mun stalk his queen the whole time.
King Mun put his queen on his body and patted her on the shoulder. He held her the whole time, as if whispering something. While the carriage swayed, King Mun’s long fingers stroked the queen’s hair as if playing an instrument.
At that point, she should wake up.
When Court Lady Yoon thought that the queen was not awake, the carriage was entering the palace.
By any chance.
Doubts sprouted in Court Lady Yoon’s heart.
“Your Highness, are you not waking up Her Highness?”
Is she in a situation where she can’t wake up no matter what you do?
When Court Lady Yoon asks, the cold eyes of King Mun touch her.
“My wife is weak, she shouldn’t breathe the poison of the imperial palace.”
In other words, it means that he placed her to sleep by force.
