103 Crisis of the Black Knight
Lilitha looked up at the sky.
Blue.
Fluffy white clouds floated around, but I couldn’t see beyond them.
As I was still staring at the sky, Marie came closer and asked.
“Lilisha-sama, what are you looking at?”
“sky.”
“I know you look at the sky. But why are you looking at it that way?
Seeing that, my throat hurts.
“Marie! Neck! Neck! Neck hurt! My head can’t come up!”
Marie sighed and supported her head.
When a slightly stiff hand touched the back of his head, his body felt weak.
Whoa, as I leaned on Marie’s arm while breathing, she asked again.
“So, why were you staring at the sky like that?”
“I was wondering if I could see the carriage.”
“…”
“Maybe the carriage with the nanny will come again.”
“is it so.”
Mari said quietly and held Lilitha on her lap.
Lilitha leaned back and looked at the sky again.
still blue The clouds were so thick that I couldn’t see beyond them. There must be a carriage on it.
“I also want to ride a flying carriage.”
“Don’t talk like that.”
Marie said in a voice that sounded like she was going to cry.
Is it lonely because the nanny went to play in the sky in a carriage?
Lilitha tapped Marie’s hand wrapped around her stomach.
“It’s okay, Marie. I’ll take you with me when my carriage comes. You can have fun.”
“…Yes. Thank you, Rilisha-sama.”
Lilitha looked at the sky quietly.
It wasn’t that I was playing idle. Actually, I had been waiting for this because I wanted to ask the nanny something.
‘But I don’t intend to come. Is it more fun over there?’
Can not help it. You should ask Marie.
Lilitha raised her head to the top and looked at Marie.
Marie’s chin and nostrils were visible.
When he laughed for some reason, he noticed what Marie was laughing at and began to tickle her.
Then I forgot to ask again.
I was rolling around on the ground for a while, tickling Marie and playing, when I heard the voice of the baroness.
“Empress Mama, the time has come.”
The baroness was looking at Lilitha with a stern expression. Because he was playing with mud.
But because Lu had told her to leave it alone, the baroness didn’t say anything while Lilitha was playing like this. It’s just that the eyebrows rise above the hair.
Lilitha stretched her shoulders.
Unaware of Lilitha’s feelings, Mari stood up with a bright smile. It’s time to study, he said, giving himself to the baroness.
Marie was frustrated. marie is stupid
Lilitha was led by the baroness’ hand, changed her clothes again, and put her hair back.
Nadia Mama has been down a lot lately. It’s because the nanny went to the sky alone.
I sat there helplessly and stared blankly at the garden, then I asked Rilisha about Rudy from time to time.
Today, as she was about to change her clothes and go out, Mama Nadia saw her and asked.
“Empress, is the Emperor comfortable?”
Hearing those words made even Lilitha feel depressed.
I didn’t know why Lu left, but I found out later that he had gone to war.
Among the stories Lou told me in the past, there were many exciting war stories.
‘I also wanted to go and fight together.’
It would have been fun together.
Two shining birds fly in the sky, and Lu’s magical animals run about on the ground.
When Lu wields a large sword called Excalibur, Lilitha becomes a black knight and rides wildly on a large black horse.
I was blankly thinking about that scene, but the baroness said softly.
“Empress Mama, Mama Nadia asked a question. You have to answer.”
“ah.”
Lilitha came to her senses and looked at Mama Nadia.
I suddenly remembered something I hadn’t told Mama Nadia.
“Lu’s hair is black.”
Nadia Mama tilted her head.
“Enrico’s hair?”
Now, everyone is ignoring Nadia Mama calling Lou Enrico. No one says the name is strange.
Rilisha also skipped the name and nodded her head broadly.
“Yes, Lu has black hair and black eyes. I was surprised that it suddenly happened, but His Majesty the Emperor was very happy.
“…”
Nadia Mama made a strange expression and tilted her head slightly. And after a while he murmured.
“His Majesty the Emperor…”
Nadia Mama lowered her head slightly and murmured softly.
“But the black hair belongs to the Corea dynasty, so why…”
Marie approached Mama Nadia slightly nervously and said,
“Perhaps the distant empire also has the blood of the Corea dynasty mixed in, Mama.
uh, did you?
Lilitha opened her eyes wide, and the baroness exchanged glances with Marie. Then, I took Rilisha outside.
A carriage was waiting outside the mansion. It doesn’t have a roof, but unlike the mansions I used to go to, it’s very pretty. It looks like Cinderella’s pumpkin carriage cut in half.
Behind the carriage was another carriage.
In front of the carriage stood the escort and maids who always followed Lilitha.
They stay in front of other buildings or mansions nearby while Lilitha goes into the mansion.
They thought it would be more comfortable not to follow them, but the chamberlain and the baroness said that the empress should always have someone to follow her.
Lilitha dropped her shoulders and got on the carriage.
From now on, there is imperial language reading and writing and dance study.
“When did you learn to ride a horse?”
When I got into the carriage and asked the baroness, the lady with a hard face answered.
“I heard that the horse that Her Majesty Emperor Sang Hwang gave as a present to the Empress arrived yesterday. I think you will see it today.”
“Good!”
As Lilitha clenched her fists in excitement and raised them upwards, the baroness said with a stern expression.
“Before that, we must thank His Majesty the Emperor Sanghwang. Seeing the horse comes next.”
“Okay! Go now!”
“Mama, as I always tell you, when you visit His Majesty the Emperor, you must contact us in advance. Otherwise, it will be rude.”
The baroness said so, but she can’t wait. When I insisted on that, the baroness said as if it couldn’t be helped.
“I thought you would say that, so I applied for a visit in advance.”
I was so happy that I jumped up. When I hugged the baroness sitting across from me, I was surprised and quickly grabbed Lilitha by the waist.
“Empress! It’s dangerous. No matter how slow it is, getting up from a running carriage!”
The Baroness seems to be getting wrinkles from worrying too much. The nagging continued until the carriage arrived at the door exiting the concubine. oh my ears hurt
Upon arriving at His Majesty’s Palace, as always, delicious snacks and drinks were served. It is said to be made by grinding fruit, but it is incredibly delicious.
As I munched on it, I thanked His Majesty the Emperor Sang Hwang for talking to me.
“ah!”
Rilisha remembered what she wanted to ask her nanny or Marie earlier.
Why didn’t I think of it until now? You are here. Why don’t you ask me directly?
Because Teacher Manners said that you shouldn’t talk when you have something in your mouth, Rilisha hastily chewed what was in her mouth and swallowed it.
And just as he was about to open his mouth, the door suddenly opened and an attendant entered.
You seem a little perplexed.
The attendant, who always smiled, came closer with a hardened face and bowed down.
“Sorry for the pleasant time you had with the empress, Your Majesty the Emperor.”
“What’s going on?”
“After the situation, Mama came.”
“Wasn’t the promise tomorrow?”
“It’s true.”
The attendant glanced at Lilitha.
His Majesty Hwang Sang-je muttered, “Ah,” then nodded.
“Did you come to see Lilitha? Stop by. It would be better to meet each other while I am around.”
‘After the situation, did Mama come to see me?’
Rilisha widened her eyes. No way, no way, is it like that? Unknowingly, I became nervous.
After a while, Mama came inside after the situation. For some reason, it seemed as if a cold wind was blowing only around her.
After the situation, Mama didn’t even look at Lilitha.
As if quietly sliding, I approached Grandpa’s majesty. Without feet, the skirt seemed to move by itself.
[The elegant lady doesn’t move below the waist. Keep your torso a little more upright, but move your limbs with a limp feel like seaweed underwater. Take your strength, Mama! Mama now is just like a log. You should move as if the skirt is sliding on its own and your body is attached to it. oh my god Please help Mama move.]
The manners teacher was saying that every time. Maybe the way Mama walks after the situation is exactly what Mr. Manners said.
Unknowingly, Lilitha clapped her hands. amain.
His Majesty the Emperor chuckles and laughs. After the situation, Mama glared at Ririsha.
And he said in a voice like ice.
“Empress! I heard a story that I couldn’t believe, so I came to see Her Majesty Emperor Sang Hwang even though I knew it was rude.”
Then, shouldn’t I tell His Majesty the Emperor? Why are you looking at Lilitha and talking?
When Lilitha blankly thought about that, after the situation, Mama looked at her with her eyes wide open.
“I heard that the empress is learning horseback riding. Is that true?”
It’s a bit scary for some reason. Up until now, this noisy Mama wasn’t that scary, but if Mama is what Lilitha thinks after this situation…
Lilisha glanced at His Majesty the Emperor.
His Majesty the Emperor noticed her gaze and asked.
“Empress, is there something you want to say? It’s okay. Don’t be afraid of the situation.”
Rilisha swallowed and opened her mouth.
“I heard something strange a few days ago.”
“Yes, what did you hear?”
“They said that His Majesty Sang Hwang was my father.”
“…”
His Majesty Hwang Sang-je opened his eyes wide as if slightly surprised. After the situation, Mama was so surprised that she opened her mouth slightly.
‘As expected. It wasn’t.’
Rilisha put her mind at ease. However, His Majesty the Emperor’s next words took Lilitha by surprise.
“Lilitha! Did the empress not know yet? I’m sure I am your father. There’s no way someone other than me could be the empress’s father.”
“Oh!”
Risha’s mouth fell open. I felt like I was going to run out of saliva, but now is not the time to pay attention to that.
Lilitha forcibly moved her neck, which did not turn, and looked at Mama after the situation. A face like an ice queen with torn eyes glared at her.
“Then, after the situation, Mama was my mother?”
What he said in his heart came out of his mouth without realizing it.
“Kukukukukukuk. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!”
Suddenly, His Majesty the Emperor started laughing madly.
The attendants in the room also smiled round and round.
The only ones who didn’t laugh were Lilitha and Mama after the situation.
“Go, dare, I dare you to think that I gave birth to a child without a shred of elegance like you.”
After the situation, Mama shuddered.
But Lilitha felt the same way. Mama’s child who moves like a doll like that.
“I didn’t want to be the son of Empress Sang Hwang, either. But since His Majesty Shang’s wife is Mama Shang’s, I thought that if I were His Majesty’s daughter, then of course I would be Mama’s child.”
When Lilitha said that, His Majesty the Emperor bent down and laughed even louder.
Perhaps because His Majesty Hwang Sang-je laughed too much, Hwang-Hwang Mama just left after a while.
After that, I heard from His Majesty the Emperor, who laughed for a long time, that Lirisha’s mother was Nadia Mama.
Since the nanny said so, I tried to ask her again, but when she said that she couldn’t ask because she had gone up to the sky in a carriage, His Majesty the Emperor Shang patted Lirisha’s head again.
“Emperors have many wives. When I was emperor, several women besides the empress gave birth to my children.”
His Majesty the Emperor Hwang said so and said that there would be a chance to meet another prince and princess later.
Lilitha’s face naturally frowned. Meeting other siblings is not important. There was something more important.
“Emperor Lu is also… Then, does Lu have any other wives besides Lilitha?”
At Lilitha’s question, His Majesty the Emperor smiled.
“Not right now. But later, when the empress and the emperor grow up a bit, they will have other wives. When that time comes, let the empress take good care of the other wives.”
hate.
Lilitha jumped up. Snacks and drinks, none of that matters.
He said hello and came out.
I had an appointment with the baroness, so I studied first. I was praised for working so hard, but I was not happy at all.
A nanny used to do that. A wife shares her husband’s love. It is said that the more you have, the happier you are, and the less you have, the more unhappy you are.
Until now, Lilitha had only thought that she was the only one marrying Lou. I never dreamed that there would be more wives besides Lilitha.
‘Lu didn’t say that.’
I always said that when you get married, the two of you are together. I believed it. But if not, if another wife might come again…
‘I have to become the Dark Knight right now.’
It takes strength to fight and win. Stronger, stronger, stronger! I will become a very strong black knight and defeat them all. I’ll kick them all out.
“Thank you for your hard work, Mama. You worked very hard today.”
After studying, the baroness complimented her and brought her a snack.
It looked very appetizing, but I shook my head and went to see the horse.
It is said that if you get used to it later, it will take you to the royal palace.
But now I had to practice, so I had to go to the riding range.
My heart was pounding. When I pictured a black guy who looked exactly like Lou’s horse, my snort naturally increased.
After driving for a while on the pumpkin wagon cut in half, I saw a large building. Incredibly big. It was so big that even if I looked up for a long time, I couldn’t see the end of the building.
When the carriage arrived, the door of the large building opened, and several people came out.
The servants, guards, and maids followed behind Lilitha.
Normally, I would walk around because of the baroness’ nagging, but now I was in a hurry.
I grabbed my skirt and ran vigorously and ran into the building.
The inside of the building was much larger than it looked from the outside.
There are things like wooden fences on one side of the building, and the floor is not wood or stone, but dirt.
And there were two horses standing. One is big and the other is small.
“uh….”
Rilisha stood tall and looked at the horse in front of her.
It’s different from what you think.
Unlike Lu’s big black horse, the two horses in front of him were white as if they were covered in snow. His mane, his fur, and even the saddle on his back were white.
It’s not what the black knight said.
Above all, this horse is small.
Lu’s black horse was much bigger than the others, but this one looked much smaller than Lu’s even though it was big.
The man holding the horse bowed his head.
“Empress Mama, I am the breeder who will raise your horses and teach you the basics.”
The keeper pointed to the smaller of the two horses and said.
“This little child is the steed of the empress. It is still young and has not been trained, but from now on, it is better to gradually learn the face of the owner, so I brought it for a face-to-face meeting today.”
Rilisha saw a small colt. It’s pretty, but it’s small and white. This can’t be a black knight. Never.
The man who did not know Lilitha’s feelings continued.
“Mama’s riding will be with this white mare from now on. She’s a gentle and kind girl and her training is perfect, so you can ride safely.”
The zookeeper bowed politely and stepped aside.
Lilitha’s shoulders drooped.
‘What should I do?’
Now I have no choice but to become a white knight. However, I think the black knight would be stronger, but it was a big deal.
