Can I See You Again

Because of Him

The ministers came out of the meeting hall surly. None of them brought smiles or laughter after. The Crown Prince really showed his power, as the heir to the throne.

"This can't be allowed. We must demand a return to the law that has been in effect. Just once appeared he was so pretentious."

"If this is the way, our business will not develop properly. The gains we've been feeling all along will be reduced."

Even after the meeting was over, they still did not accept that reality well. The unilateral decision that the Crown Prince made was detrimental to them. This caused them to think of another way not to let the Crown Prince get more powerful. Shortly after struggling with emotions, the secretary of state approached the ministers.

"What the Crown Prince decides is a good move. Even at the beginning of our meeting, he gave a good impression," the Secretary of State argued.

"You said such a thing, because you're the richest man after the king in the country, right? Try you're in our position, I'm pretty sure you won't take it all that easily."

They repeatedly protested and complained in person, until the fed-up Prime Minister of Han left the place as soon as possible. In front of the palace, Prime Minister Han accidentally meets his son, Jun. He just kept walking past his father, not one bit to say hello.

"What have you taught the Crown Prince?" ask Prime Minister Han, stop his son's steps.

Jun turned around, looking at the father. "What do you mean?" jun asked confusedly.

Prime Minister Han walked over to his son. His face was very serious and confident. "Crown Prince, your beloved disciple .. he dared to change the system of rules that ever prevailed. But I think what's interesting to you isn't about that. Crown Prince, close the case of attempted murder that happened to him. Isn't that weird?" Prime Minister Han smiled, staring fixedly at his son's eyes. "I feel sorry for you. He'll try hard to have the child of the woman you love. You'd be very hurt if it really happened."

"Shut your mouth!" quick refute Jun. He pulled his father's collar, and raised it a little high. "That's not gonna happen. You and your rotten mouth will stop interfering in my business!"

The reaction of his son made Prime Minister Han laugh out loud. So loud, almost everyone around saw them.

"If you keep meddling in my affairs, I won't stay silent anymore" Jun threatened his own father, before finally letting go of that grasp and leaving from there full of emotion, extremely jealous.

(Dwelling of Princess Shin)

Princess Shin sat on the steps of her house, lamenting the unfortunate fate that plagued her. His sister and father fell ill, but he did not get permission to come to the palace. Ha Sun the husband who had just arrived, immediately approached after putting some equipment in the courtyard of the house.

"Daughter, is there something disturbing?" ask the husband. The waiters stayed away a little giving freedom to the couple who did not love each other. They smiled at each other, hoping that Princess Shin and Ha Sun could get to know more.

"I'd love to go to the palace, but I'm not allowed to visit anytime soon" Princess Shin said. Ha Sun smiled, he sat right next to Princess Shin. "No problem. Later if it is allowed, I will immediately take the princess to the palace. Oh yeah, how about we cook?" Ha Sun tried to comfort his wife, as usual.

Princess Shin who from earlier just bowed sadly, finally raised her beautiful face. "Cooking? Ii'm sorry. I'm not very good at cooking," Princess Shin replied in the midst of her grief. Ha Sun giggled, this time looking so happy. Princess Shin looked at the face of the young man who just kept laughing in front of her.

It hurt so much, that laughter made Princess Shin even more injured. She does not love the man who is her husband. Never noticed it either. However, the husband always shows that he is fine, always be nice to him.

Seeing that cheerful face, Princess Shin smiled as well. "Have you ever cried?" ask Princess Shin. Ha Sun stopped laughing, then turned to her, "Of course. I always cry, but a man can't look so whiny. Especially in front of his wife," Ha Sun replied back to Princess Shin's gaze.

The two pairs of eyes suddenly met, there was peace created there.

"I'm sorry, for not being ready to be a good wife to you. You always cook for me, tidy up my clothes, give me a place to hide. Did I not hurt your feelings?" While shedding tears, Princess Shin tried to smile at her husband.

Ha Sun grabbed onto those pretty cheeks, wiping away the tears that flowed there. "No. I'll be fine, so you stay in good shape."

Ha Sun's answer raised a strange point in his heart. It felt like Princess Shin was crying, screaming against fate and forgetting Jung Hyun as soon as possible. A man like Ha Sun, too good to be hurt. That is what makes Princess Shin even more sad. Love and politics, too torturous to live. They live under royal orders, living the rest of a painful destiny. Love was always ignored in those days. They believe that political marriage is much more profitable and brings happiness. Though reality is always different, many hearts are hurt by it.

(Crown Prince Palace)

The Crown Prince's unilateral decision is very dangerous for his own life. The ministers will reject and petition. The Crown Prince's life will be even more dangerous. However, instead of worrying, the Crown Prince even smiled to himself after arriving in his room. He stood in front of the mirror, touching his lips again.

"Your Majesty, won't your decision harm you?" eunuch Cho's worried face changed the look of his face to be more funny than usual. The Crown Prince chuckled, turning to face the servant. "I know," he answered.

"Why did you do it?" ask Eunuch Cho once more.

"I don't like those hypocritical old men. They're traitors who always pretend to think about the people. If I die for my decision, I won't regret it."

"Your Majesty, can you not attribute everything to death? I'm afraid to hear it" replied Kasim Cho.

The Crown Prince looked back at his handsome face through the mirror. "Nothing is eternal in this world, but ..." The Crown Prince touched his lips again. "He made me want to live forever."

Eunuch Cho approached, touching the Crown Prince's arm. "So happy I see you this cheerful, Your Majesty. After this, do you want to go back to see your Empress?" ask Kasim Cho.

Unlocking his robe, the right corner of the Crown Prince's lips formed an unusually sweet knot of smile. "As a man, I think you understand my thoughts very well. It's just, I don't want her to get tired of seeing me."
