A Kind Goblin’s Bird - Chapter 98

The Crown Prince brought something wrapped in a robe. It was so completely covered that it was impossible to tell whether it was living or inanimate. All they knew was that it was very important to the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince came into his quarters, careful as if it was the throne. Only when he reached the bed in the sleeping quarters did the Crown Prince take off the robe. What came out of it was a woman, her appearance ordinary, and her stature is small. Her eyes were big, and she knelt on the bed and sat blankly, tilting her head and moving.

The Crown Princes eunuchs were perplexed. The Crown Princes attendants were, of course, had no affinity for the opposite sex. But what kind of woman is she in the bed of a Crown Prince who has only men?

What was even more strange was the Crown Princes attitude. The Crown Prince had never had this attitude toward a woman. He had never been kind to a woman. It was surprising that he, who was often indifferent if not suppressing and dominating, brought a woman who was neither pretty nor beautiful, and treated her like a feather.

You should never call me Lord Heon-young unless we are alone.

Young-young recalled the warnings she had heard while returning with Sa Heon-yeong. Sa Heon-yeong briefly explained the events that had happened so far.

According to his explanation, he thought Young-young was dead, and became angry and took the Crown Princes place. So he cautioned that they would be in trouble if people found out that he was not the Crown Prince.

If I make a mistake, if I call you Lord Heon-yeong, then will we separate up again?

Young-young asked, trembling and afraid. The thought of separating with him one more time hurts as if someone is going to rip her intestines apart. Sa Heon-young kissed her forehead at Young-youngs words.

There wont be a second one. Rather, we will be together.

Sa Heon-young didnt say any more, but Young-young understood. Hed rather die together. Young-young nodded her head enthusiastically. As her tears flowed, she wiped her wet cheeks in his arms. If they separate, he would rather die together. He cant even imagine how reassuring that one word is.

And Young-young is now sitting on the Crown Princes bed, his bed.

Sa Heon-yeong gave her a single grin as she tilted her head as she looked at the Crown Princes huge room, then turned his head away.

Grand Eunuch.

The Grand Eunuch, the person serving the Emperor and the manager of the eunuchs, he lowered his head.

Yes, Your Highness.

The guest will stay. Bring the servants to serve.

Guest.

The Crown Princes guest? He is the son of heaven, the next Emperor, and the agent of the absolute. He owns all these rivers and mountains, and even if he does not possess them, it is merely a hand to him, and no one will be treated as a guest by him. The existence of a guest is to be equal or higher than that.

Where could such a being exist for the Crown Prince?

Even that woman No matter how he looked at it, she didnt look precious.

They exchanged glances with confused eyes.

Yes, Your Highness. I will do as ordered.

The Grand Eunuch replied seriously.

He was one of the few people who knew Sa Heon-yeongs true identity. As soon as Sa Heon-yeong took the Crown Princes place, the Grand Eunuch swore allegiance to him.

He hated the original Crown Prince terribly and thought that Sa Heon-yeong would be much better if he was in a position to serve the next powerful person. Thus, he willingly became an accomplice in this silent rebellion.

Currently, the Grand Eunuch has become Sa Heon-Youngs shadow, so he also knew the contents of Sa Heon-Young and Court Lady Yoons private talks. So, of course, he had no choice but to guess the identity of that woman.

She is a very, very important guest. There should be no lack in service, understand?

At Sa Heon-yeongs words, the Grand Eunuch glanced at the womans face. The woman smiled brightly when their eyes met. She had no wrinkles on her face unlike a person who had been tortured almost to death.

That woman is Queen Mun.

The Grand Eunuch lost his words inside.

Queen Mun. A woman who loved King Mun and nearly lost her life while claiming that he was a human. And the woman King Mun loves more than his brother, more than his parents, more than his country, more than his own life.
