The King's Beloved Empress
Episode 39 (In revision)
The long-awaited day came as well. The day Ellen would return home after a month. He couldn't even sleep all night because he thought a lot about everything once he got home.
Moreover, their culture is always holding a fireworks festival every year and this is really the right time to attend it.
Ellen felt more and more that she was really Ellen. He thought nothing more about his life exchange. And he's quite happy for now.
All the royal families are ready. They will use 3 horse carriages each special Ellen and Aldrich, Kath and Queen Irene, and also their special servants.
On the way, Ellen felt a little awkward and sleepy. Since at the palace, honestly they rarely together because of their respective activities. But right now they were just the two of them inside the horse carriage with such a strange atmosphere.
"Are you that happy to be home?"Aldrich asked to look at Ellen who was daydreaming outside the window.
"Eh? Yes, my majesty, I'm glad I miss him."Answer Ellen.
"After we get there, we can't linger. In two days I'll be out of town."Aldrich.
"What's? Out of town?"
"I have to meet someone there to get things done."Answer Aldrich.
"Why sudden?"Ask Ellen again.
"actually no. I've been planning this for a week."
"So will Your Majesty not be too tired later if after from home I go there immediately?" Ellen felt a little bad.
"Are you worried about me?"Aldrich asked deliberately to tease his wife.
"Ah..of course your majesty. You're still my husband, how am I not worried?"Ellen replied which made Aldrich open his eyes wide.
"So, when will his majesty return?"Ask Ellen again.
"Hmm, about a week, I'm not sure either. If I finish my job sooner, I'll be right back."Answer Aldrich.
Ellen did not know whether she should be happy or sad. Avoiding the King was once part of his plan. But now it might not matter if Aldrich leaves for a while?
"Oh well, your majesty, thank you for telling me."Ellen.
In the novel the King if he has a job outside the city will never want to tell his wife because he thinks it is not important. But now everything is the opposite.
Ellen so slightly felt does the noble king have feelings for her? He didn't want to be overconfident because after all Aldrich had everything.
Arriving at the castle, Ellen went straight down quickly even she did not care about the coachman who wanted to help her down.
Mr. Marcus and Mrs Ziane had already stood up to welcome their arrival.
"Mother! Daddy's! Shouted Ellen calling her parents until they were a little shocked. Ellen ran chasing like a child and hugging them filled her sense of longing.
Mr. Marcus and Mrs Ziane hugged their beautiful daughter feeling moved. Kath and Aldrich who saw the scene somehow became a little envious. Queen Irene felt the warmth.
After she finished hugging, Lady Ziane touched Ellen's eel which made Ellen grimace in pain.
"Aw! Mommy's sick!"
"Based on this kid, it hasn't changed at all! You're already empress, why is your nature like this anyway?!"Madam Ziane said she was upset because she was reluctant to be seen by the royal family.
"Haha, it's okay baby, our daughter is still sweet."Mister Marcus said as he stroked Ellen's head.
"Hehe's right ma'am!"Ellen said even grimace.
"Greetings to the Queen, her Majesty the King and the Princess..."Said Madame Ziane lifting her skirt respectfully.
Aldrich just nodded the same as Kath.
"Greetings to you too Miss Ziane. You're still pretty ya."Praise Queen Irene.
"Ah thank you your majesty. You're still very pretty."Praise Mrs Ziane back.
"Come, please come in, your majesty, I will take you to rest."Bring Madame Ziane.
They all obey. Aldrich had been looking for where his wife was. He could not believe that Ellen had just disappeared from his sight, but Ellen was with them.
While Ellen went after her brother who was walking somewhere. And that was when she saw her brother's back clearly before her.
"Ellen?! When did you arrive?"
"just now. Why didn't you welcome my return?"Ask Ellen pout.
"Oh I didn't know, sorry."Erick said, then he hugged his sister.
"Sister didn't tell me you were getting married tomorrow either."
"Ah haha, I told you. Never mind, the important thing is that you're here." Erick.
"Who is the wife of my sister? Tell me dong please!"Ellen pleaded.
"can't. You have to wait until tomorrow."
"Why?!"Ask Ellen in frustration.
"Surprise. Patience a little why! You better go rest there. There's something I still have to do."Erick.
"Sister is so annoying!"Ellen said annoyed.
"Are you not afraid of your husband? The royal family must be going with you, right? You should have accompanied them stupidly!"
"Ah yes, right too. I just miss my sister."Ellen.
"Can't meet me. Now go back there."Erick.
"Huh, okay."Ellen said back in annoyance and she felt a little strange about her sister's unusual attitude.
What the hell is it?
Ellen continued to watch her brother who had walked a little away from her sight until she was unaware that he had hit someone in front of her.
"Ouch!"Stricken Ellen.
"Miss Ellen? Ah I mean noble empress? You've come back!"The voice of a man named Yohannes. Ellen raised her head to look at the tall man.
"Prince Yohannes? What are you doing here?"Ellen asked in surprise.
"I'm here as often as usual. How are you, your majesty?"Ask Yohannes.
"My news is good prince. What about you?"Ask Ellen back.
"I am also kind, Your Majesty."Yohannes looks happy.
"I really miss you. It seems like today is really my lucky day visiting the castle."Yohannes.
"really? Why do you like coming here?"
"Because I have friends here. I always felt uncomfortable in the palace. It feels freer here."Reply Yohannes.
I thought I wouldn't see him again.
"By the way how are you now? I'm just wondering if you're living pretty well there."Ask Yohannes.
Well, actually I've been through quite a lot of conflict. But I better not tell him...
"I live very well, prince. Thanks for asking."Answer Ellen.
"Oh so, thank goodness."Yohannes felt a little awkward.
"Sorry prince, I have to accompany my family first. Anytime if I have time, I'll take the time to chat with you."Ellen remembered her husband.
"Oh yes, Empress. Thanks for your time."Hail Yohannes.
Ellen smiled then she immediately went inside her castle. Instantly everyone who was waiting for his arrival saw him with an iceberg-cold gaze, especially Aldrich and the mother.
Die me!
