The King's Beloved Empress
Episode 47 (In revision)

In the room, Ellen still thought of Kath saying she was beautiful. He still could not believe it and thought that it was just his hallucination.

"Did he really say that? She said I was prettier than Lizzy?! Am I hallucinating?"Ellen muttered while lying on her bed.

While at Kath's residence, the girl regretted her words. She did not knowingly say it because she did admit that her sister-in-law was much prettier and cool.

"Argh! Why did I say that?! I seem to have gone crazy because of that woman! Now she must be getting more proud of herself and bothering me all the time!"Kath muttered annoyed.

At Lizzy's residence, the girl had a chance to think about her plan that went smoothly or not. She from last night until now could not calm down because she kept thinking about Ellen who was pregnant young.

"Damn it, why am I not calm like this? Should I just check there and see the results? I don't want the daughter of that woman until birth to pass on the inheritance! Anyway I have to make that woman miscarry and divorce Aldrich!"Lizzy muttered with a sharp look looking at herself towards the mirror.

As he said, Lizzy moved to visit the palace pretending to check Ellen's health. Though he wanted to make sure if the child in Ellen's womb was dead.

"Good afternoon, queen!"Greetings Lizzy polite and elegant.

"Lizzy Ah? Welcome then. Do you want to check Ellen's health?"Ask Queen Irene.

"That's right, your majesty. Where is the noble consort Ellen? Can he be checked today?"Ask Lizzy.

"Ah that.of course. Wait a minute, let me call you."Queen Irene looks forced. His feelings felt a little bad.

Queen Irene walked up to Ellen's room and Lizzy followed the middle-aged woman behind her back.

"Ellen, today Lizzy's doctor came to visit to check on your health."Call Queen Irene.

While in the room, Ellen was so shocked.

What's?! Why did the snake woman even come here! He must have deliberately wanted to check whether I had taken his vitamins or not, right? Calm down Ellen, act like you always do...

Cklek, Ellen opens the door and is confronted by Queen Irene and Lizzy. The girl's smile seemed unusual. Ellen tried acting as natural as possible.

"Ah mother, so miss Lizzy today will check on me huh?"Ask Ellen.

"Yes right, your honor. Today I'll check your health."Lizzy.

"Why should I check everything? Didn't Miss Lizzy say I was okay? You should be called if I have an illness?"Ask Ellen.

"Well, not even your Majesty. I as a doctor of the palace trust was also obliged to examine his patients even though he said he was not sick. I just want to make sure it goes ahead."Lizzy.

Queen Irene began to sense there was an unfavorable aura between the two young ladies before her.

"Miss Lizzy just wants to make sure I've taken her vitamins or not? Relax, I drank it. As you say, I feel healthier and fitter."Ellen said that it looks natural to show that she is fresh.

"Oh good, Your Majesty, I'm glad to hear that. You also have to move a lot so that the blood does not freeze. And I hope you drink it regularly every day."Lizzy.

This woman is really looking to die! If only I could have known sooner what the drug contained...

"Of course Miss. I drink it with routine. I even drink it 3 times a day."Ellen.

"Oh yeah, then you just want to ask that, right? I'm fine now. You don't have to check on me, so you can go straight home."Ellen said without further ado.

"Ah yes, that's right, your majesty. I'll come back the next day."Said Lizzy who knew what Ellen meant.

"Have I told you that you don't have to check on me again until I call myself? To be honest I'm not comfortable if you come in tomorrow to check on me again. I look like..supervised."Ellen.

Deg, Lizzy started to sweat and she was a little surprised by Ellen who quickly realized her intent. Inevitably he had to trust the empress and go home according to her orders.

Well, this woman can too. He turned out to be pretty smart. At least she's smarter than the dead woman...

"Pardon your inconvenience, Your Majesty. I only meant well because of my obligation as a doctor. I heard you say healthy is happy. Thank you for your precious time, Your Majesty the empress and Her Majesty Queen Irene."Lizzy said salutations.

Ellen was silent and she was lazy to say hello to Lizzy. He just gave a smile.

"Oh, we also thank you for taking the time to visit here, Lizzy."Reply Queen Irene.

"Yes, your Majesty the Queen. Then excuse me for saying goodbye."Greetings Lizzy.

After the girl went away, Ellen could only breathe a sigh of relief. He really did not expect that the woman really wanted to do something about him.

"Are you okay, Ellen?"Queen Irene asked looking at her daughter-in-law's attitude.

"I'm okay mom. That was very stressful. I almost wanted to put it on. I know, she doesn't seem to be doing her job. I hope he doesn't come here again until I provide solid evidence that he really wants to harm me."Ellen.

"really? So then...Lizzy really has such intentions? But he's not a doctor?!"Queen Irene asked in disbelief.

A doctor must take an oath. His vow is to heal, not kill. So if Lizzy did it, she would be given a very severe punishment. It is likely that he could lose his life.

"I also used to feel sorry for her, because I thought about the risks that would come to her. But if it's true, then it's worth it."Ellen.

Queen Irene was silent and a little saddened by her daughter-in-law's statement.

"Mother, is that mother's best friend still around?"Ask Ellen.

"Ah, he died 3 years ago."Said Queen Irene.

"Oh...Why did he die mom?"Ask Ellen again.

"Because of pain. Even though he's a doctor, he's still a human who can get sick, right? He can't even cure his own illness."Queen Irene was sad to remember the past.

"Then did you ever think of setting Miss Lizzy up with her Majesty the King? I'm also curious if Miss Lizzy comes from a noble family as well?"

"Of course I've thought about it. But it couldn't be because Lizzy wasn't a noble daughter. He's just a kid from a state-credited medical family. After all, he would not be able to go through two tasks at once. The job of being a doctor is hard."

"But why could he like His Majesty the king, when he should have known that he could not be with the noble king?"

Seriate. (Thank you for reading. Don't forget like yes 👍)
