After a month , the King announced that I will go into seclusion in a mountain to treat my frail body and will only come back when I was fully treated.
The Queen's seat left empty and I heard the Queen Dowager kept pestering the King to strip me off my t.i.tle. She argued with the King of my capability to give an offspring to continue the Royal Family's legacy.
However, the King kept ignoring her. These of course were reported by Eunuch Han through the letters he sent to Court Lady Song. He still couldn't help being nosy and said he was lonely since no one picked a fight with him after we left.
I didn't allow the King to visit me as I didn't want to rouse any suspicions. I told the King to make it looked like he didn't care about me anymore so that no one will be interested in my matter.
However, the King still send a letter every once a month and expressed his distraught in pages long. The letters will come together with our food supplies hidden beneath the stacks of food. It will be a lie if I said that I didn't miss him but I refrained myself to reply to his letters for fear someone might interjected it.
Five months after I left the Palace, it was finally the day.
After a night long, fighting for both my life and my child's, the midwife told me that I had a son.
Finally, an heir to the throne. A prince.
The King was dying to see the Prince but I told him that I will come home soon and he didn't need to trouble himself to travel miles away. I told him that the nation needed its King - the throne shouldn't be left empty for such a trivial matter.
I promised the King that I will come back in a month but eventually it had dragged to couple of months because the Prince was very frail and I was afraid that the long journey would affect his health further.
One morning, I received a letter from the King. The King had expressed his disappointment in the letter and said that I had no intention to return at all. Therefore, he wrote in his letter that he will come to take me home.
It will take at least three days of journey from the Palace to where I was and if my calculation was right, a.s.sumed the King had began his journey after he sent the letter, then he will probably arrive before dawn, the day after.
I told Court Lady Song to pack all our things and told her that we will finally going home.
