Chapter 5 — Ha Tat Must Forcibly Pray

"How can this be? I am your mother. How can I not take care of your big marriage matters?" I smiled slightly: "Of course you still have to take care of it." “I still welcome you two to attend my wedding.” As soon as the words ended, the two of them stiffened in place at the same time. I didn't look at them again, turned around and left. 11 I did not expect that I would also be infected with the disease. Perhaps because he was previously punished, his body was weak. Illness comes like a falling mountain. Our body is getting weaker and weaker. Bui Hanh Ngoc constantly guarded my bedside day and night. The back of his hand pressed against my forehead and said tiredly: "I'm about to become a widower before we get married?" I lay barely alive on the bed. He was silent for a moment then said: "You still haven't told me why you didn't choose the royal brother, but instead chose me." "I am a person without great ambition, greedy for food and lazy to work. You are so good, maybe you don't value me." I was helpless to move my fingers. He doesn't know that he is a very good person. In his previous life, in the last years after Bui Can ascended the throne, he held all the power in his hands. There was no one in the court who was willing to speak up for a concubine who was hated by the Emperor. Only Bui Hanh Ngoc presented a memorial every month, scolding very harshly: "Your Majesty mistreats his wife, she is truly unworthy of being a wise lord." “If you bully a woman, Your Majesty will be remembered in history books.” Day after day, finally Bui Can could not bear it anymore, issued a decree, banishing him to Nam Cuong. There were constant wars there, and foreign tribes often invaded. Bui Hanh Ngoc stayed there for three years, recovered a lot of large and small territories, and returned triumphantly to the capital, his reputation is extremely resounding. Bui Can also specially organized a welcome party for him. During the party, he allowed Bui Hanh Ngoc to ask for a reward. But he did not expect that after three years, as soon as he opened his mouth, Bui Hanh Ngoc would beg on my behalf. He played with the wine cup in his hand and smiled lazily: "I can't stand unfair things." "The queen is not at fault. It's just that the royal brother is angry at someone who is innocent." … The Queen's body is still weak. Bui Hanh Ngoc was forced to spend part of his time taking care of people. For some reason, the palace maids all quietly retreated. I was the only one left in the room. In a dream, someone always wipes the sweat and gives us water. That person's movements are incompetent, clumsy and frantic, and often cause pain. I mumbled that I was cold. He hesitated for a moment, then hugged me. The familiar scent sometimes does not cover the tip of the nose. When I woke up, the face I saw was Bui Hanh Ngoc. I held out my burned hand and complained: "You're so clumsy." "If I say it's cold, you just need to cover yourself with another layer of blanket. Why are you hugging me? What should I do if I get infected?" The faint smile on Bui Hanh Ngoc's face suddenly disappeared. He looked up at me, expressionless: "You mean someone else came here just now?" 12 I don't know which of my sentences made Bui Hanh Ngoc angry. After watching me drink all the medicine, he turned around and left, not knowing where he went. I sat on the bed bewildered. It turns out that no matter how good a prince is, when angry, he is just as scary. At dusk, when he returned, there were many wounds on his body. I carefully looked at his cold face and held his hand. Bui Hanh Ngoc seemed to have just woken up from a deep dream. He looked at me and smiled bitterly: "This is the first time in my life I know what fear feels like." Afraid of what? I asked, but he just pursed his lips and refused to speak. On the day my sister got married, I decided to go back to Tham residence to get some old things. Bui Hanh Ngoc wants to go with me. I didn't want him to see my brother again, so I smiled and said: "Why do I have to go with him?" “I just returned to my home, can I still be in danger?” Bui Hanh Ngoc looked at me silently. In the end, he still agreed, but sent a few secret guards to follow. I smoothly returned to the palace. The sound of gongs and drums echoed in the sky, everywhere were hung red silk and the word joy. Mother and elder brother stood in front of the main street to welcome k

overbearing. Everyone's eyes were focused on them, no one paid attention to me. We passed through the noisy guests and entered the back yard. But as soon as I pushed open the bedroom door, I froze in place. The person who should have been at the Eastern Palace preparing to get married was calmly standing there looking at me. 13 My palms suddenly became cold. I instinctively took a step back. But my back touching the door frame was even colder. I could only watch helplessly as Bui Can gradually approached. I opened my mouth, almost moaning and pleading: "Your Highness..." He looked down at me, deep in his dark eyes was intense hatred. That cold, elegant face had become very haggard. It was like he had been tossing and turning for many nights, unable to sleep. He smiled coldly: "What else are you pretending to do?" “Didn't you think of all sorts of ways to approach me before?” “Now you brought yourself to the door, why are you unhappy?” I closed my eyes, chokingly said:
