Can I See You Again
The Same Love, in a Different Way
The servants put on the most beautiful and best dresses for Youra. Youra was unceasingly trying not to show that sadness. He was so hard holding back his tears not to drop his pride. "Your Majesty, are you sure it will come?" ask Dayang Nari. There was no answer, other than Youra's face showing sadness. Dayang Nari hid her smile after seeing the look on that face. Shouldn't Youra be happy? Why is she crying?
"Have you fallen in love, Your Majesty?"
Youra raised her face, puffed up her chest, putting on a haughty face towards the queen's palace.
***
"Welcome, Your Highness the Crown Princess."
The main gate of the queen's palace was opened wide. Everyone bowed their bodies saluting. They, the entire occupants of the queen's palace were stunned after returning to stand upright. This was the first time, Youra had used her official dress as the Crown Prince's wife. Very elegant. The red dress with a golden dragon motif was very suitable attached to her beautiful body. She actually came as the future queen of this land.
"I really didn't expect it. This queen candidate finally came along as well. It's good to see you here, my son-in-law," said the queen. Stay with the charade. Showing how kind and friendly he is in front of a lot of people.
"It's nice to meet you, Her Majesty the Queen." Youra's voice trembled, like she was no longer in power. The two girl-to-be concubines turned to her, confused. The view became broken, because a healer came closer.
"You always refuse the examination. This is a good opportunity to check your health." The queen tried to humiliate Youra in front of the two girls.
His breath claustrophobic withholds anger, but still succumbs to keep his good name. Youra finally gave the hand to the queen's court physician, letting them check. "How's it?" ask queen.
The doctors looked at each other. "Yes Your Majesty. The Crown Princess has not served her husband. She's a virgin." The queen laughed happily, she felt like she was already a winner. The two girls immediately looked at Youra, frowning their foreheads in disbelief.
"Have you been satisfied you humiliated me?" youa asked leisurely without blinking, just keep glaring at the queen.
The queen did not budge, she even leaned her body on the luxurious chair. "Do you know what the Crown Princess is like?" ask the queen to the two girls who were dumbfounded.
"According to you, she who does not serve her husband, or the Crown Prince of this deviant country?" ask the queen before biting off a piece of apple.
"Anyway the state of the Crown Prince, the servant will serve him wholeheartedly, Your Majesty," Hong Jin-Yi, he smiled in response, looking very sincere and loving. It was smothering Youra's chest. She clenched the luxurious dress in her grasp.
"What do you think, Miss Han?" ask the queen to Han Ji-Eun. "Hamba thought, The Crown Prince is a perfect man who cannot possibly deviate from the teachings, Your Majesty," Han Ji-Eun replied.
"So you mean, the Crown Princess who doesn't serve her husband?" ask the queen again. Han Ji-Eun smiled, "It seems so, Your Majesty."
"Shut your mouth, lowly woman!" youra denied being very emotional, glaring at Han Ji-Eun. The queen ladies-in-waiting approached, restraining the trembling body of Youra. She was like a lioness who was about to attack.
Hong Jin-Yi just kept staring at him, for a long time. While Han Ji-Eun was still with her thin smile full of disdain. The queen laughed out loud, shaking her head softly. "You guys are really in love with the Crown Prince."
"Take me off! You don't know who I am?!" Youra snapped at the queen's servants who touched her body. "A cunning woman like you doesn't deserve to be the queen of this country!" youra shouted right in front of the queen's face.
The queen did not bother, she did not care Youra wanted to scream or was making an oath. The queen reached for the fancy paper that the king had signed. Opening it while looking at Youa haughtily.
"Sadly, I'll only point at one of you. Will you be happy?" ask the queen to the girls. They both smiled, taking the word.
"Okay, Your Majesty."
The queen took a breath, glancing back at the rampaging Youa trying to break away. "alright. Based on the palace's considerations, based on quality, quantity, and not ignoring ancestral customs, as well as listening to the advice of the virtuous elders, the official palace appointed HAN JI-EUN, the daughter of the Han Prime Minister, as well, as the main concubine for the Crown Prince. The wedding will take place soon, without having to wait any longer." The queen closed the paper again, her grin adorning the meeting.
Han Ji-Eun was astonished, her eyes rounded big showing such great pleasure. While Hong Jin-Yi felt very disappointed. In this world, there was no other hope for her than to be the wife of the Crown Prince, whom she had cherished since childhood.
"Not to worry. Thanks to the palace's decision, you could become the Crown Prince's wife one day," the queen added.
***
The meeting that day was stressful. Youra was finally released by the ladies. Hong Jin-Yi is ushered out by the servants, while the queen rushes away back to her cubicle.
The chosen Han Ji-Eun was still inside the meeting room with Youra. They were given time to talk. As in the previous case, every woman who will become a new wife, will listen to the advice and ask for the blessing of the first wife.
"Sweet as you look." As soon as Youra greeted. Very emotional and depressed.
Han Ji-Eun smiled haughtily, she really did not hesitate to look at Youra in a very disrespectful manner. "You jealous?" han Ji-Eun asked with a faint smile. "Don't ever call me a lowly woman again" Han Ji-Eun continued. "Because you're much lower than the rotting garbage in this country" he added, crossing his arms around his chest.
The furious Youra immediately rose from her seat, quickly pulling the sassy hair of the woman who would become her husband's concubine. "Shut your mouth, lowly woman! Who do you think you can talk rudely to me? Ha?!"
Han Ji-Eun is in pain, but she instead laughs as Youra gets harder pulling her hair. "I will be the queen of this land. I will give a descendant to the Crown Prince. Not just one, I'll give him a lot of kids." Han Ji-Eun didn't want to lose, the more she fought back.
"I won't let you .. touch what's already mine!" Youra pulled Han Ji-Eun's hair even more, until the girl's head was heavily leaning back.
"You think I don't know your relationship with my brother?!" han Ji-Eun's reply was surging. Finally Youra let go of that grasp, she laughed restraining her glee. "Don't say much about you ..."
"You're always sending letters with my brother, plotting revenge, and wanting to get rid of your own husband. You think I don't know? I can get rid of you easily," Han Ji-Eun added breaking Youra's sentence. Youra slipped, not expecting the girl to know everything.
"You will only be a despicable concubine in this palace" said Youra.
"Haha! For how many decades, it was the concubine who eventually became the queen of this palace." Han Ji-Eun tidied up her tangled hair and stood looking at Youa fixedly. "Even the queen you've hated all this time, she's got rid of the real Queen Kim, the Crown Prince's birth mother" she whispered. Afterwards Han Ji-Eun came out of the queen's palace.
DEG!
Youra never knew about it. She kept on being glued in with a blank stare that drove her out of the queen's palace. That fact was more painful than what he thought. The fact that the Crown Prince was truly alone was a painful thing for him.
As a result, Youa wanted to leave immediately from there, easing her heartache. However, his steps were again prevented by Hong Jin-Yi who was standing upright with tears welling up. He bowed his body to Youra for quite a while, before finally returning to stand up straight to deliver a few sentences that instead further slapped Youa very hard.
"I honor you as the Crown Princess of this land. I'm very happy when the decision results say that you were chosen to be the wife of the Crown Prince at that time. Not a haughty girl like Miss Han. In my eyes, you are an extraordinary figure who can give love and love to the Crown Prince. That will help and accompany the Crown Prince well," Hong Jin-Yi explained. There was an emphasis on the tip of his tone, he was trying to hold back the tears.
Hong Jin-Yi approached a few steps, before finally continuing his words. "But I was wrong. You are even worse than the reality. I just kept finding out about the Crown Prince. I got hurt when I heard that he was sick, but I got sicker when I found out you left him. I can't believe the whole news that says your bad. But this fact convinced me." Hong Jin-Yi again bowed her body respectfully. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. To be honest, not only Miss Han, I also love the Crown Prince very much. From this moment on, I will no longer give up. To you, or to a devious woman like Miss Han."
Hong Jin-Yi re-established her body, "I just hope .. someday, I will be re-appointed as his wife. I will win the heart of His Highness the Crown Prince. I'll give you love, which he never got."
Hong Jin-Yi passed by, then entered into the luxurious palanquin that was already waiting for him. Leaving the claustrophobic Youra to the ground.
"Your Majesty!" the servants immediately chased Youra. He uses his body to get back up.
