Chapter 10 — I Wait For Reconciliation, But He Refuses To Let Go

Waiting for my cousin to ascend the throne. Wait for Diep Thanh Thanh to leave the capital. Waiting for the two of them to confirm their intentions with each other. We will receive the letter of reconciliation that we have been waiting for for two years. Just thinking about it makes me happy. That night I even ate another bowl of rice. Sleeping is also much better than usual. Because I know. My truly good days. It's about to start. It took me two full days to accept the truth. My brother really ordained me as Queen. It's not a mistake. It's not a misreading of the scriptures. It's not like the eunuch sent the message to the wrong person. Even the Queen's golden seal was brought to Phuong Nghi palace. The noble lady, no, now she must be called the Queen Mother, and came personally. She was so happy that her eyes were red. Hold my hand and tell me everything. From managing the harem to giving birth to children. Listening to the end, my head started to hurt. Wait for the Queen Mother to leave. I immediately lay down on the couch. Dong Tuyet brought the tea and carefully asked:

"Miss, do you really intend to be Queen?"

I jumped up.

"What are you doing?"

Dong Tuyet was startled.

"But the decree has already been given."

I crossed my arms over my chest, looking serious.

"He must have forgotten."

Dong Tuyet was stunned. I nodded firmly.

"He's so busy ascending the throne, he has to read tons of medals every day."

"Definitely forgetting about separation."

Speaking of this. I feel more and more that my guess is very reasonable. After all, he's been so busy these past two years that he hasn't even had enough sleep. It's not strange if you forget. Dong Tuyet opened her mouth to say something. But look at my confident face. Finally swallowed again. The next day. I changed my clothes and went straight to the royal study room. As soon as the eunuch outside the door saw me, he immediately bowed his head.

"The slave pays his respects to the Queen."

Listen to the words Queen. The corner of my mouth twitched. It still feels extremely strange. I waved my hand.

"Where is your Majesty?"

"In progress inside."

"Can I come in?"

"Of course."

He pushed the door himself. We step in. Inside there are several ministers. There were also a few guards standing guard. The cousin sat behind the dragon bench. Hearing the movement, he raised his head. See me. His eyes softened slightly.

"What are you doing here?"

I'm not polite. Pull up a chair and sit opposite.

"I have something to say."

Several ministers immediately bowed their heads. Pretend like you can't hear or see. Brother looked at me for a moment. Finally had to say:

"You guys go down first."

The great mandarins seemed to be granted amnesty. Run faster than a rabbit. Soon. In the room, there were only me, him and a few confidants left. The cousin put down his pen. I cleared my throat. He raised his eyebrows. Don't know why. I always feel like the way he looks at me lately is very strange. It's like looking at a stupid child. Continue saying:

"I have thought about it."

He nodded.

"The story of separation..."

The last word just came out. His face immediately darkened. I pretend I didn't see it.

"Anyway, the decree has already been given."

"If you want to fix it, it's troublesome."

"So I won't compare anymore."

His expression softened slightly. I immediately continued:

"But you must compensate me."

His hand holding the pen stopped. Finally, let's talk about the main story. The whole room suddenly became quiet. It was so quiet you could hear a pin drop to the ground. Ta feels a bit weird. Raise your head and look around. The guards standing on both sides stiffened. One person almost dropped his sword. Even the chief eunuch bowed his head lower. It's like wanting to dig a hole and crawl into it. I don't understand. Just ask for a guard. Is that scary? Right at that moment. A shadow of a person came in from outside. It is Kim Dao. Obviously he had just been called. Still the familiar black outfit. Still that cold face. I immediately felt a beautiful and joyful scene. Kim Dao knelt down to worship.

"Your subordinates pay their respects to Your Majesty."

Brother didn't say anything. Just quietly looked at him. Kim Dao gradually felt that something was wrong. He saw me sitting next to him again. The corners of his eyes immediately twitched. I don't understand why. I felt a layer of sweat appear on his forehead. A while later. The new singer spoke up. The voice was terrifyingly calm.

"The Queen wants you."

Kim Dao almost knelt unsteadily. I hastily explained:

"I just want him to follow me."

It's better not to explain. Just finished explaining. The expression on his brother's face became even more unsightly. Kim Dao almost fainted. Brother looked straight at me.

"Ci Van Khe."

"You like him?"

I blinked. Isn't this question too obvious?
