The Place Where I Was Sold as a Slave Was the Imperial Palace

Chapter 77

076

Nanny and Mama Nadia fell asleep before I knew it, and Marie went upstairs a little while ago.

The fire in the fireplace is still burning, but all lights are out.

In the darkness, only Lilitha and magic are awake.

In the monstrous darkness, an occasional crackling light arose.

Today, from around the afternoon, magic continues to riot. Normally, there are no fireworks, but today I have already seen it several times.

‘As expected, everyone knows!’

Rilisha clenched her fists.

It’s finally tomorrow.

After preparing for a long time, I will leave this mansion tomorrow.

And it was clear that the magicians knew about it and supported it.

I believe that everyone will succeed. It sparks like such a joy.

ok don’t worry I will definitely come back with Lou. Your support is definitely not in vain.

‘Ah, of course you guys are going too.’

Lilitha muttered in her heart, pulled the blanket over her head, and raised her voice in a low voice.

“Come here, boys! I’ll tell you the plan.”

The blanket was quickly filled with magic that sparked fire.

Magic flashed before Lilitha’s eyes as if saying something. It’s like saying, coming, coming, coming.

“Noisy! It’s shiny and makes your eyeballs go round and round. Be quiet. I’ll tell you about tomorrow’s plans. We’re going this way. We ran before and were caught, so this time we’re going quietly on our stomachs.”

Lilitha unfolded the map she had prepared in advance under the blanket. After touching the square part of the mansion with his finger, he moved his finger along a winding line.

“You can go like this. And, yes, here it is! You have to run from here. Okay? Stick to it. Don’t fall by mistake. It’s hard to see because there are trees here.”

When I was young, sometimes when I woke up, I would see Rudy sitting at his desk writing something.

Back then, the golden hair that moved slightly in that large chair felt very high, but now she could sit in it herself.

I didn’t meet Lou until I grew up that much.

I miss you.

I hope Lou casts a spell on Lilitha’s forehead again.

“…”

The truth is a little unsettling.

When I was young, I thought that if I went outside the mansion, I could meet Lu.

But now I know that’s not the case.

Now I have learned and know that this mansion is in a place called the concubine, the concubine is in a large imperial palace, and the imperial palace is in a large place.

The baroness said so.

It is said that there are many cities in this world that are larger than the concubine or the imperial palace, and when they are combined, they become one country.

Then where the hell is Lu?

I don’t know if it’s in the concubine outside the mansion, or in the imperial palace outside of it. doesn’t tell The mean servants simply answered, “It’s far away” whenever Lilitha asked.

‘Who doesn’t know that?’

Drops of water dripped from Lilitha’s eyes as she curled up on her side.

Marie once said that she was sold because she had no money.

It is said that in the world outside the mansion, it is impossible to have no money, but Rilisha had none. Couldn’t it just be bread and beef jerky?

“Guys, if we leave the mansion now, we might become beggars.”

I remember most of the stories Lou told me.

Among the stories, there was a story in which a prince turned into a beggar and became a real beggar.

“If I become a beggar, I might not be able to find Lou.”

The Lilitha that Lou knows is a princess. Lou doesn’t know the beggar Lilithia. The more he thought that Lu might not recognize him, the more saddened he became.

As I sniffed and rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand, the magic that had been quiet for a while became sparkling and noisy again.

It is as loud as thunder on a rainy day.

I felt bright even when I closed my eyes as the magic was shining right in front of me.

“shut up!”

Lilitha smiled brightly after talking to the magicians in words mixed with tears.

Everyone is comforting and encouraging themselves.

Thinking so gave me a little courage.

“It’s okay. You can do well. We will definitely meet Lou.”

Glitter! Glitter!

The magic lights flashed loudly and flew around the narrow blanket.

It seemed to tell her that she could definitely get out of the mansion safely and bring Lou back.

Lilitha hugged the map tightly to her chest.

This map is a treasure that was completed after wandering around for a long time and being captured by an attendant. I will lead Rilisha to Lou.

‘Let’s go to bed early for tomorrow’s sake.’

Lilitha, who had been sniffling and crying for a while, had entered dreamland without realizing it.

In a dream, Lilitha met Lou.

But strangely, the face is not visible.

Lu, who was bathed in sunlight from behind, placed a hand on Lilitha’s head and said.

[Princess, why did you become so pretty? I was pretty when I was young, but now I’m more beautiful than Nadia Mama.]

Of course.

Of course, Lilitha will become more beautiful than Mama Nadia.

said the nanny. Lou’s first love is definitely Nadia Mama.

I don’t know why, but Lilitha was very angry at the nanny’s words.

I don’t like Mama Nadia, but I don’t hate her either. Sometimes when Mama gets weird, I feel scared, but that was it.

However, after hearing what the nanny said, she hated her a little.

[Never lose!]

In her dream, Lilitha raised her fist and shouted. I will become more beautiful

“Mama, shall we use the old balm today?”

The lady-in-waiting who was doing her hair asked.

The scented oil the lady-in-waiting was talking about was what the emperor used when he often visited her. It was a sweet scent that wives often use to seduce men.

The empress quietly looked into the mirror in her hand.

An old woman is looking at herself in the mirror.

“No, today is.”

“But Mama, tomorrow is the day when His Majesty the Emperor is coming.”

The lady-in-waiting was speechless.

The emperor is already in this city. Around dusk, the news came that they had arrived.

After being away from the country for a long time, the empress, the crown prince, and nobles entering and exiting the palace were scheduled to meet at the palace tomorrow morning.

It’s a bit strange.

A normal emperor would not do such a thing. It was the emperor’s style to surprise people by storming in without any news.

‘Because he’s old too. So that’s it. It doesn’t mean anything. It won’t mean anything.’

The empress muttered as if trying to convince herself and closed her eyes.

I’ve been thinking a lot for months.

After the Countess’s death, he looked around and saw that things had changed a lot before he knew it.

The faces of familiar people disappeared for one reason or another and became lonely.

It was simply thought that since the empress herself had grown old, personal things had become more important as they had grown older too.

However, it is only now that the possibility of not knowing raises its head.

‘no. I have to trust my husband. That person and I have accumulated time.’

Even if there is another person in her husband’s heart, even if the woman’s shadow does not disappear, there is definitely love between her and the emperor. There was a bond and trust built up over a long period of time.

Unlike the empress herself, the emperor loves his wife. He, who had been overlapping his body and mind for a long time, knew that.

The empress opened her eyes and smiled at the lady-in-waiting.

“It’s over now, go away.”

“Yes, Mama.”

The maid quietly withdrew, and silence returned to the room.

The empress put down the mirror and rose from her seat.

In the silence, only the rustling of clothes could be heard.

The silence felt like it was his situation now, and his heart felt cold.

‘are you okay. This anxiety will disappear when Your Majesty returns.’

When the emperor returns, he will smile, and after that, he will talk about the crown prince and click his tongue.

If you say sorry, the emperor will surely laugh and say it’s okay.

The emperor would discuss why the child fell so short of his expectations, and then discuss who should inherit the throne next.

Then you have to answer yourself.

The third would be nice, he said.

If I told him that he would make a good emperor because he was smart and determined, the emperor would surely sigh and nod.

Until the Emperor returns, nothing must be done. Even if you are anxious and heartbroken, you have to be patient.

The heart that has endured thinking like that will be rewarded when he returns. The wise man will surely know that he has been patient and waited.

Yes, it will definitely be fine.

The empress covered her eyelids, which were trembling anxiously.

Moisture slowly rose in the tightly closed eyelids.

The next morning, the empress came out of the residence dressed more splendidly than usual. The ladies-in-waiting followed her in a long line.

The place to greet the emperor is in front of the main palace, in the middle of the Klitschko-shaped building, where the emperor’s bedroom is located.

When we went to the front of the main palace, nobles, gates, and military officers were already waiting.

The prince couple and the princes are also present.

The empress glanced at the prince and his wife as they greeted them, then turned her head.

After waiting for a while, I saw a fancy carriage in the distance.

“!”

The empress’ eyes widened.

A strikingly beautiful dark horse was walking beside the carriage. On top of it, a small person who is difficult to see as an adult is riding.

‘no way.’

Was it the golden child whom the emperor loved and took away?

The empress narrowed her eyes and saw the man riding the dark horse.

It is true that golden slaves were the adorning possessions of emperors, but never before had a husband allowed his slaves to possess such luxuries.

Although the current emperor looks extravagant, he is actually stingy. I don’t like spending money on useless things.

“Who is it?”

“No way, did you get a new concubine over there?”

“A woman wouldn’t have ridden a horse.”

“No, I mean that, the golden child. Maybe he.”

“Huh, the emperor who likes women can’t believe it.”

People talk in low whispers.

‘no. The Emperor never loves men. Because men can’t give birth to children with magical powers.’

The emperor doesn’t even put love in his heart from the beginning unless it’s for the country. I was careful not to fall out.

Maybe that’s why he fell in love with the Princess of Correa once.

It could be that he thought, without realizing it, that it was okay with that woman, that even if he loved her to the fullest, it would not harm the country. He might have thought that even if his heart went crazy for her, if he could acquire magical powers, everything would be offset.

That’s why the protection that I had in my heart came off.

It was a story that was possible if it was an emperor.

That’s why he couldn’t tolerate Enrico. Because he knew how much the emperor wanted to possess magical powers.

The kid would have taken everything.

The emperor’s heart, which was barely controlled, was taken to Nadiagra.

How can I accept that?

The emperor’s chariot drew closer, and the figure of a man atop a dark horse could be clearly seen.

She was a child who had done all of the extravagance and was dressed in an extravagant outfit.

The hat he wore on his head was studded with high-quality, beautiful peacock feathers that had been airlifted from somewhere, along with jewels, and his clothes were decorated with gold and silver threads.

The front of the robe is decorated with jewels so densely that there is no gap.

No one entering or leaving this palace has ever worn such extravagant clothes. It was more colorful than the emperor’s attire.

The people’s murmur grew even higher.

However, the empress’ gaze was nailed to the child’s face.

Those eyes, that nose, that face line.

Unknowingly, the empress’ body staggered.

The prince next to her quickly grabbed her by the waist.

The empress looked at the child on the black horse, standing with her body about to collapse leaning on her son’s arms.

‘Looks like It’s not Nadiagra. He resembles that woman.’

The outline of Princess Corea, seen in the portrait, remains intact on the face of the child on the black horse.

‘The successor of the Duke of Watoring.’

The golden child was definitely Princess Corea’s child.
