Episode 160 The Empress Takes Action
Episode 160 The Empress Takes Action
Emma visited Baron Nedville’s residence today as usual.
The time she entered her mansion was around 10 am.
She came here for only one reason.
She was there to meet Luke.
Until Luke returned to the imperial palace, she wanted to somehow spend time with him every day.
“Good morning, Emma! “You came today too.”
Polly, one of her maids who worked at her mansion, greeted her warmly.
“Yes. Good morning, Mr. Polly.”
“Did you come to see Master Luke?”
Polly approached her Emma, holding her broom in her hand. Instead of answering, Emma just smiled sheepishly.
“Isn’t it too obvious?”
“But what about good things?”
When Emma looked embarrassed, Polly burst out laughing.
“How are you, Bocchan?”
“Hmm. “I feel like she treats me like her little sister.”
“Do better.”
Polly touched her Emma’s shoulder lightly.
“Yes… ….”
Emma’s cheeks turned red, and Polly laughed lightly at the sight.
“By the way, master, where are you now?”
“I didn’t see you go out today. Are you probably in your room?”
“Thank you, Mr. Polly.”
She motioned to her Emma to go up quickly. Emma gave Polly a silent bow and then she ran up the stairs to the second floor.
She no longer cared even if Her Majesty the Empress and her maids were together.
Emma was just happy that she could spend time with Luke.
For the past six months, there was no way to receive news other than the letters Luke sent occasionally.
Emma walked quickly to where Luke’s room was.
When Luke’s room was in sight, the door to the guest room suddenly burst open.
“Emma?”
At that moment, my eyes met with Cecilia, who was sticking out her upper body.
Emma quickly stopped in her tracks and placed her hands neatly on her lower stomach.
“I meet Her Majesty Empress Cecilia, the mother of the Empire.”
She bowed her waist at a right angle, reciting the greeting that Luke had taught her.
‘I stuttered again today… ….’
Cecilia was a very difficult opponent for Emma, no matter how many days she had to face her.
“Okay. “Good morning.”
Then she ordered Cecilia to raise her head.
“It looks like you came to see Luke.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Hmm.”
Cecilia gently rubbed her lower jaw. Then she looked at Emma from her head to her toes.
Why are you looking at me like that…… The poor?
Not knowing what to say, Emma just blinked her eyelids.
“Since when were you and Luke childhood friends?”
Why are you suddenly asking this?
Emma felt puzzled by the unexpected question, but she thought that since it was the emperor’s question, she should answer sincerely.
“Master Luke and I were born and raised here. “I don’t remember exactly when, but we’ve been together for a very long time.”
“It sounds like a very close relationship.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
Do you think you are satisfied with the question at this level?
Emma examined Cecilia’s complexion with her wary eyes. But isn’t Cecilia still staring at her?
‘Did I do something wrong?’
When that thought occurred to Emma, she felt as if she were sitting on a thorn cushion.
“Emma. “I have something to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“Please come into my room first.”
Cecilia motioned for me to come closer.
Why do so many unexpected things happen today?
“Quickly.”
As soon as she heard Cecilia’s urging, Emma immediately caught her senses.
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Emma placed her hand on her chest to calm her racing heart. She then went into Cecilia’s room.
After she entered the room, Emma kept looking around because she didn’t know what to do.
“Sit somewhere reasonably comfortable.”
Cecilia spoke to her.
But she couldn’t take a single step from that spot.
‘What happens to me now?’
It was because that thought was dominating her mind. Cecilia let out a faint sigh and walked over to her Emma.
From noble mtl dot net
“Sit on the stool over there.”
“Yes, yes!”
Emma approached the stool that Cecilia pointed to and sat down carefully. Cecilia then sat down in her armchair and stared at her Emma.
“Emma. “Have you ever had a fight with Luke?”
“Yes? Ah… ….”
Emma trailed off her words, tracing her memories of her childhood.
Come to think of it, she fought a few times when she was very young. The reason she fought wasn’t really a big deal.
She keeps the toys for herself or fights over who gets to play in her garden.
“There was.”
“I see.”
Cecilia nodded her head once.
Then she noticed Emma. She noticed that, unlike before, the Empress’ ruby colored eyes were filled with anticipation.
Emma couldn’t figure out why.
‘Did something happen with Luke?’
That was all she could deduce.
“But…… Because I was too young. “It was when I was 4 or 5 years old.”
“It seems like a lot of childhood.”
There was silence for a moment between the two women.
“How did you reconcile?”
“Ah… ….”
Why are you asking so persistently?
But she didn’t have the courage to ask Emma why. All she can do is answer her emperor’s questions as best she can.
“At that time, um…… Make a wreath…… “We ate bread together or something like that.”
“… ….”
Cecilia narrowed her eyes after hearing Emma’s answer.
When she noticed this, Emma felt her heart tighten as she wondered if she had answered wrong.
“Then Luke… ….”
“… ….”
“Do you still like corollas?”
Luckily, I didn’t give a strange answer.
Once Emma realized that, she internally sighed in relief.
But this time, a question came up that was difficult to answer.
This was because she had not given Luke a wreath as a gift since she was very young.
Also, it’s a bit funny to give a flower crown to a man.
Emma carefully examined Cecilia’s complexion. From her perspective, Cecilia had a serious expression on her face.
“Now…… I do not know.”
“Hmm. After all, it would be a ridiculous sight to give a man a flower crown as a gift.”
“… ….”
Emma gave an unspoken affirmation.
“Other than that, if you know what Luke likes, I want you to tell me.”
There was a serious light in Cecilia’s eyes.
Emma felt embarrassed inside.
Although she had known Luke for a long time, it was because he had never particularly revealed his likes or dislikes about anything about her.
She said, ‘When she was with me, she said she would like anything she did…’ ….’
Emma immersed herself in her thoughts, pressing her temples with her forefinger.
Fortunately, she was able to recall a few things Luke liked.
The first thing that came to mind was that Luke likes spending time with him.
“Do I need more time?”
“Oh. No… ….”
But she was sure this wasn’t the answer Cecilia wanted.
So this is excluded for now.
Emma had other things in her mouth.
“I really like gold.”
“Money is something everyone likes.”
“Brother Luke likes gold more than others.”
Cecilia studied Emma’s expression closely.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like she’s lying.
“…… What else?”
“I also like soup made with ground kava.”
“I see.”
Cecilia nodded her head once.
‘That’s another simple taste.’
Inwardly, I was thinking this.
Cecilia then asked if there was anything else. Emma answered sincerely in an enthusiastic voice.
“I really like Yeongji. Youngji people also like it. And even though he said it was annoying to see Youngji work, he secretly enjoyed it. I like to go for walks, and…….”
Almost didn’t give Cecilia the answer she wanted, but she did.
“Stop. That’s enough.”
Cecilia stopped her Emma from speaking by raising her hand.
Emma was afraid that Cecilia might have become uncomfortable.
“Your Majesty. Also, would it have been helpful?”
At that wind, Emma’s voice trembled slightly.
‘Oh my. It must have scared me unknowingly.’
Cecilia got up from her armchair and slowly approached her Emma. Emma shook her head, tensed.
Cecilia ordered her Emma to raise her head.
“Thanks to you, it was a great help. “Thank you.”
Cecilia smiled, slightly curling her lips. Only then did Emma relax.
“Ah, thank you, Your Majesty.”
“Let’s just leave now.”
Emma nodded to Cecilia and went out into her hallway.
Cecilia stared at the locked door for a moment before she sat down again in the armchair. She then cupped her mouth together and blew on her.
Thanks to her advice from Emma, she was able to find a way to get her relationship with Luke back on track.
“Soup made with kava… ….”
Cecilia decided to make it herself.
* * *
I came out of the mansion.
She briefly encountered Emma in her hallway, but Flora and Mulia immediately grabbed her and took her to their room.
On the way, she reached out her hand for Emma to help her,
“Mr. Luke. We have something to share with Miss Emma, so let’s borrow it for a moment!”
What’s so special about Flora saying that?
I had no choice but to nod that I understood.
“But what should I do now?”
I left the mansion without any plan, so it was only natural to have concerns.
I stood there and tried to think of my next plan.
But nothing in particular came to mind. Originally, I had planned to spend some time alone with Emma.
Then, suddenly, upon returning to the mansion, my mind wandered to a place I had never been to before.
“I’d like to go to the training ground after a long time.”
I took a step towards the training ground located behind the mansion. When I arrived at the training ground, I could see Hans engrossed in sword training.
-Hook.
Every time my brother swung the wooden sword, the sound of cutting the air passed by my ears.
Even though there is some distance to the training ground.
Hans usually looks a bit stupid and pathetic, but he’s definitely different when he’s practicing swordsmanship.
I moved closer to the training ground. The more I did, the louder and clearer the sound of cutting through the air became.
Before long, Brother Hans put his wooden sword on his belt and rubbed his hand on my forehead.
“Why did I come all the way here?”
“It’s been a while since I came here to take a look.”
Then my brother chuckled.
“How is it? “Aren’t you itching?”
“Not really?”
As he shrugged his shoulders, his older brother shook his head.
“A boy doesn’t feel anything when he sees a wooden sword?”
“You know it too. “I’m not really good at swordsmanship.”
“I won’t listen to excuses!”
My brother suddenly screamed.
Why are you doing that?
I blinked my eyes in confusion, and in the meantime, my brother brought another wooden sword.
“It’s been a while since we last sparred. “Let me take special note of it.”
“… ….”
I looked down at the wooden sword for a moment and then held it in my hand.
It wouldn’t be a bad idea to warm up like this once in a while.
My brother told me to come up to the circular sparring hall.
As we faced each other, my older brother gestured with his chin.
“Come.”
I jumped straight forward.
I exchanged a few sums with my brother, but that was it.
I lost my balance and lost sight of the wooden sword and it fell apart.
“Huh. “I feel a little relieved now.”
“What? “Do you have anything accumulated for me?”
As soon as I asked, my brother shouted.
“Of course not!”
Why on earth are you doing that?
As I was staring blankly, my brother huffed.
“I can’t believe I spent every day with such beautiful people! “As an older brother, I can’t forgive you!”
Ah, that was it… ….
I think the priority now is to clear up my brother’s strange misunderstanding.
