126 I decided to attack my husband
The news that the Putegrin Empire was participating in the war between Cania and the Kingdom of Crete quickly spread throughout the imperial palace.
Rilisha heard the story through the mouths of the ladies-in-waiting.
The pickled fruit in my mouth fell onto my skirt.
“Really?”
“Yes, Mama. This is certain news. Your Majesty ordered that just a little while ago. The attendant informed you. They say they are leaving the day after tomorrow.”
“War…”
As Lilisha muttered blankly, one of the ladies-in-waiting said with tears in her eyes.
“Mama, keep your mind firm. You will be fine. Your Majesty is stronger than anyone else. I am sure you will be safe even if you go to war.”
Lilitha jumped up and stamped her feet.
I try to fix it, but when I get angry, old habits come out without my knowledge.
Even the ladies-in-waiting were well aware of it, so no one was surprised.
A few people came closer to Lilitha as if they were sorry. say soothe
“Mama, don’t worry.”
“Your Majesty will be fine.”
“Of course, Your Majesty has creatures of light.”
The maids are misunderstanding something. Rilisha raised her head and looked at the ladies-in-waiting.
“What are you talking about? It’s only natural that Lou is safe. Lou is the strongest person in the world. If we have to worry, it’s Crete, not Lou.”
“uh.”
“yes?”
“I-Mama…”
While the maids were confused, Tyra asked.
“Mama, then why are you so shocked?”
Tears welled up in an instant at those words. Lilitha clenched her fists while staring at the floor.
“I thought it was strange. The day after the New Year’s banquet, I thought it would definitely come, but nothing was said. The next day, I thought it would definitely come this time, but I skipped it again. But I waited patiently. Since I am the empress, I thought that I would wait until Her Majesty spoke. I ate.”
Tyra frowned.
“Mama, what were you waiting for? What did you think was coming?”
“First night!”
When Lilitha spoke with tears dripping down her cheeks, the ladies-in-waiting who had been talking about this and that worriedly became quiet.
Lilitha’s shoulders drooped.
“I was expecting it, the first night.”
I was really waiting. When you turn 15, you are an adult. no longer a child
Besides, Rudy is already 17 years old. I ate a lot more at the age of 15.
Tae Hwang Sang-je said that he had his first child before he reached that age, and Tae Hwang-hwang-hu told him about it every time they met.
Tae Sang-hoo was three years older than her husband, but the story was left out. A foxy old woman! While she was much older than Lilitha and gave birth to a child.
No, that’s not the problem now. I don’t care if it’s the situation before or after the situation. The problem facing Lilitha right now is Rudi.
Rilisha muttered with conviction.
“A grown man never sleeps without a woman.”
For some reason, the ladies-in-waiting sighed.
However, with a few exceptions, most of them are single women.
Lilitha is married, the ladies-in-waiting are unmarried.
If you ask who knows a man better, of course you would.
Even at the tea party held by Tae Sang-Hwang, all the ‘married’ women were saying that.
A man, like every ten women, is a beast. It eats up any woman in a position to touch it. Oh my, a man whose wife is a virgin? I’ve never heard of such a case. Oh, I guess I’ve heard of it. It’s a distant relative couple I know, and they said there was such a case. hehehe, how unattractive it is that even after getting married, the first night would not have happened yet.
Every time I heard stories of women standing around and disparaging themselves in that way, it was heartbreaking, even though they were smiling nonchalantly on the outside.
All men in this world are beasts, but why is Rudy the only human?
I want you to throw away the opposite s*x in a distant wasteland and come back. Just sure!
But Lilitha knew. Rudy is a sweet and kind person. She’s shutting down her animal instincts for the sake of Lilitha, who is still young.
It wasn’t that he was unattractive, but Rudy believed that he was just waiting for Lilitha to become an adult. Because Rudy is a good person.
But no matter how long I wait, it never comes. I wait for yesterday, today, and tomorrow, but when I open my eyes every day, she is alone in the bed. It was now embarrassing to ask the lady-in-waiting if Rudy didn’t come every morning.
“I won’t stand it anymore.”
Lilitha bit her lip tightly.
“Mama, if you ignore it like that, it will bleed.”
Tyra panicked, holding her hand and peering down at her face.
It is the ladies-in-waiting who are in trouble when the empress’s body bleeds. Sorry, I got excited and forgot about it for a while.
Lilitha licked the blood with the tip of her tongue, sucked it up, and then clenched her fists. He said it vigorously with tears dripping down his face.
“I’m going to His Majesty’s room tonight. Don’t stop me!”
“eee!”
“mama!”
“My God, Mama finally.”
The ladies-in-waiting screamed like screams. Tyra put her hand on her forehead as if her head hurt.
I know the feelings of the ladies-in-waiting.
The emperor’s room is not a private space. It was a place where everyone came and went.
Therefore, it is customary for the emperor to go to the other person’s residence when spending the night with a woman. There was no such thing as a woman going to the emperor’s room.
But I can’t wait anymore. If the opponent is too gentle to become a beast, then you have no choice but to become a beast, right?
The baroness, who had been watching quietly until now, took a step forward.
Lilitha lowered her head, unable to see the baroness’s face.
The maids also became quiet.
Oh, I’m sure I’ll get scolded again. The excitement of a moment ago had subsided like a joke.
“Okay, Mama.”
After saying that, the baroness looked at the ladies-in-waiting.
“All of you, please leave for a moment. I have something to say to Mama about the bedroom plan.”
“…”
The ladies-in-waiting looked at the baroness with their eyes wide open as if they had seen a ghost.
The same goes for Lilitha. Are you sure what you just heard was the baroness’s voice? Isn’t that the voice of a fox or a crow disguised as a voice?
I learned this time that my voice won’t come out if I’m too surprised.
The ladies-in-waiting looked confused and possessed by a ghost and slightly bent their knees. And quietly everyone leaves.
“Tyra, you can leave too.”
When the baroness said, Tyra quietly bent her knees.
After everyone left the room, the baroness came right in front of Lilitha.
And said in a soft voice.
“Good job. No one noticed Mama’s anxiety.”
“…”
Lilitha’s head fell down.
“Did you remember what happened during the Prairie War?”
“…”
Nodding, bowing her head once, the baroness’s voice echoed through the quiet room.
“Mama, forgive me for touching you for a while.”
The baroness quietly hugged her.
“You have been very patient. It is a secret that no one should know that there are monsters that threaten Your Majesty. You have done well.”
“…Luga…No matter how strong…there is always danger…”
no more words come out Lilithia hugged the baroness tightly and buried her face in her chest. A small cry escaped from the baroness’ chest.
The baroness continued to hold her and rub her back until she calmed down.
When the cries finally subsided, Lilitha sniffled and lifted her head.
“…but…hey…about the first night…hey…it’s true…”
“I know. I know that Mama is waiting for you very much.”
The baroness gave a small laugh.
“By the way, what’s the plan for the bedroom?”
When Lilitha asked, the baroness said with a calm face.
“It’s a shame if you don’t eat the table that’s been set. Tell Your Majesty that.”
“…”
What is it. Isn’t that kind of a bedroom trick?
But the baroness taught me nothing more.
“You will know when the time is right. For now, we can leave everything to His Majesty.”
“…”
good anyway Lilitha becomes the real Lu’s wife today.
*
As the day got dark, the ladies-in-waiting wiped every corner of Lilitha’s body with warm water. Finish with the balm you use for the first time from head to toe.
For some reason, the clothes were loose skirts that she usually wears to sleep.
The ladies-in-waiting wanted to wear something different, but the baroness forbade it, saying it would be a big deal if she caught a cold.
It’s a little sad. For this day, there are some erotic clothes I bought from merchants who enter and leave the imperial family.
It is said that noble ladies secretly purchase clothes. If you wear it, men fall in love with you.
‘I can’t help it. Because the weather is so cold.’
If the empress catches a cold, the ladies-in-waiting also have a responsibility problem. The baroness’ concerns may have been justified.
My heart was pounding. What if the attendant doesn’t let you in? I’m a little worried. No matter how empress she was, she couldn’t enter without permission, but it would be difficult if she offered to ask for permission.
I fell asleep while thinking about this and that. I’ve never been awake until this hour. Lilitha dozed off and fell asleep on the sofa in earnest.
Tyra asked me to lie down in bed, but what if I can’t get up again? Never.
It seems that I slept for a while. When someone called her to get up, Tyra and her maids surrounded Lilitha.
“It’s been about an hour since His Majesty got into bed.”
The maids swallowed their saliva at the baroness’ words. Everyone was nervous and their faces hardened.
Lilitha jumped up.
“let’s go!”
As she clenched her fists in tension, the baroness draped a thick fur coat over Lilitha’s shoulders. It was a cloak with a hat attached to it. The baroness stuffed it up to her neck, tied it with a string, and put a hat on her head.
“It’s cold in the hallways in this outfit. If you catch a cold, it’s a big deal.”
says the baroness, changing shoes.
However, isn’t it a bit strange to have furry shoes in the yard that invades the husband’s bedroom after a long time.
Tai seemed to think so too. When our eyes met, he whispered with his mouth that furry shoes are the point of charm.
When all the preparations were finished, the ladies-in-waiting went outside, with Rilisha in the middle.
A group of women stomped through the corridors of the imperial palace.
Occasionally I met an attendant working late at night or an escort patrolling.
However, no one talked to the nervous group of ladies-in-waiting or questioned where they were going.
Lilitha arrived at the emperor’s residence without any restraint.
In front of the emperor’s room stood an attendant in charge of opening and closing the door and a guard guarding the door.
‘What if I don’t let them in?’
I was a little worried.
As the baroness advanced farthest, the guards who had been standing still raised their weapons a little with a click.
“!”
It was the first time I had seen the guards move. Until now, they thought standing still was their job.
said the baroness, raising her eyebrows.
“It’s the empress. You dare to draw a weapon.”
It was a voice I had never heard before.
But the guardsmen were not frightened or flinched in the least.
“I’m sorry, but we are under orders not to let anyone into His Majesty’s chambers.”
“Even if it’s the empress mama?”
“…”
The guards were silent.
That’s right. Lilitha’s shoulders drooped. Huh. Not just anyone can enter the Emperor’s room without hesitation. Even if she was an empress.
Lilisha wanted to rush into the room like this, but if she did, the maids would be punished.
Lilitha reached out of her cloak and gently grabbed the baroness’ clothes.
“Let’s just go.”
It was when Rilisha had just said that.
The chamberlain came out of a door not in the front, but a little further away.
The chamberlain walked down the corridor without making a sound of footsteps and bowed politely.
The baroness wanted to say something, but before that the chamberlain spoke first.
“No one else. As long as it’s the empress.”
After saying that, he gave the guard a little glance.
The guard put his weapon back in place and looked straight ahead with an expressionless face.
The servant opens the door.
Someone gulped. Maybe it was Lilithia, maybe it was another lady-in-waiting.
Tyra raised her fist as if to cheer up.
Risha moved her nervous body creaking and went inside. My body felt like a wooden doll.
The door quietly closed behind her, revealing a large room in the dim light.
On the other side of the room, on a large bed, a long piece of cloth was hanging down.
‘Luga in there.’
The sound of saliva passing gulp, gulp, echoed over time. It seems to be heard from far away even though it is the sound you are making.
It walks with a creak like a broken wooden doll. Furry shoes with burst heels dragged along and made a noise.
I went to the side of the bed and pulled back the curtains, leaving some black hair scattered on the pillow. Maybe because I closed my eyes, I looked younger than usual.
“cute.”
After making that noise, Lilitha realized that she had no idea what to do next.
The baroness said that Rudy could do as he pleases, but now Lou is sleeping!
After hesitating about what to do, I took off my hat. There was blood all over his face and it was very hot. It wasn’t until he touched the string that tied his cloak that he realized he was sweating. Your palms are damp.
“Whoa. Whoa.”
Heart, please stop talking.
Lilitha inhaled and exhaled deeply, calming herself down, and tightening her grip. The closure of the strap was easy to untie. I pulled the long string lightly, and the cloak fell to the floor.
“Now, what should we do? Yes, we should lie down together. Yes, let’s lie down.”
Lilitha hurriedly climbed onto the bed. My heart is beating so fast it feels like it’s about to jump out of my mouth. My heart was beating so hard that it was difficult to breathe.
After crawling to Rudy’s side, he knelt down and sat down.
Rudy talks to her kindly like he always does to Lilitha.
“It’s okay, Lou. It doesn’t hurt. Don’t be afraid.”
no, isn’t this? I’m so flustered I think he’s saying something weird.
“Because it’s really okay. Couples do everything. Don’t worry.”
I don’t think this is either.
But when I say something, I feel like my heart calms down a bit. Rilisha crawled into the futon, being careful not to wake Rudy.
Lie down on your side and hold your body tight. As Rudy’s arm touched his chest, his heart started pounding again.
Looking at Rudy’s profile, the forgotten tears began to flow again.
I stretched out my arms and hugged Rudy’s body, then spoke to him in a low voice.
“Never, absolutely, you must come back safely to me. It’s a promise, Lou. I will wait with the baby. I will keep waiting with a child who looks a lot like Lou. Please come back safely to me, Lou.”
Lilitha closed her eyes and realized that she had forgotten one thing.
He hurriedly got up again and put his own on Rudy’s lips.
Lips once, then again, and then again.
After kissing her lips several times, she whispered softly.
“This is the magic I give you. The magic to return safely. I give it to you in advance so that you don’t become a sleeping beauty.”
After lying down next to Rudy again, I couldn’t sleep because my heart was beating so loud for a while.
But if you listen carefully under the blanket, you can hear Rudy’s heartbeat.
I was relieved by the sound, and my heart calmed little by little.
And before she knew it, she fell into a deep sleep.
*
‘What kind of torture is this?’
Rudy looked at the ceiling and let out a long sigh.
He had been awake since Lilitha came in. It’s so noisy, there’s no way I won’t wake up.
But it was clear that it would be a nuisance when he woke up then. From the baroness to the chamberlain, they are all in the same family. It was obvious that if I tried to send Lilitha back on the spot, it would be noisy. Besides, Lilitha would cry too.
So I tried to do something when I was alone with Lilitha, but he acted so cute that I waited for a while. Besides, hmm, I thought it might end like this.
Lilitha has no knowledge about men and women. yeah i knew
Most of the women of this era get married after hearing that their husbands will take care of them, so all they need to do is stay still.
Occasionally, there are cases in which people are educated about male-female relationships through family customs, imperial family, or royal family policy, but that is only a minority of stories.
In this era where TV, movies, and even novels are rare, the aristocratic woman who grows deep inside the house is literally a flower in a greenhouse. Purely cultured, clear spring water without a spot.
“Still, to believe that if we sleep together in a futon, we will have children.”
Baroness, maybe this is too little education.
Rudy looked at Lilitha’s face for a while, then carefully placed an arm pillow on her.
I hugged her tightly and closed my eyes, but of course sleep didn’t come. I guess I’ll have to stay up all night in this state.
“Thank you for the magic kiss, ma’am.”
Rudy smiled lightly and kissed Lilitha on the lips.
