"Lady Han!"
"Please wait!"
Kana followed the voice and he saw himself being followed by a lady in waiting.
Kana felt like he is watching some kdrama movies, he suddenly wish to have a popcorn.
He saw his father and brother training the soldiers, they were in the training grounds, the soldiers are scattered and all the armory are on the long table.
Loud clanging of metal swords, spears and the sound of swooshing air coming from the arrows, the grunting of the soldiers and the commands of his father, filled the air.
He saw the previous Kana walking gracefully in his navy blue hanbok, his hair is tied on the top part of his head, leaving a few strands at the side of his face, it was carefully secured with jade hairpins dangling on each side.
His hand is holding a peacock fan that match the color of his outer robe.
Sheen is walking behind him.
She quickly block the servant girl. Someone might recognize that she's the second Prince's servant.
Kana's father is busy at the moment so they don't want to make a scene.
"What do you want from my lady?"
So no one really knows that the youngest of General Han is actually a male. Kana nodded on himself as he continued to watch, he concluded that this is a fragment of memories from the previous owner of this body.
"Prince Haii would like to have a word with you Lady Han, if you want, this way." She motioned them to follow.
To Kana's surprise, the previous Kana followed them.
He saw Sheen rub her nape as she followed her master towards the said location.
Does Prince Haii and the previous Kana had a relationship? What on Earth?
Kana, followed them as well, he wants to gossip.
In this dream, he's like in a movie marathon.
"Leave us." Prince Haii said so his servant and Sheen left them alone.
"How are you, Lady Han?"
Kana wanted to chuckled hard when he saw the previous owner of this body, blush like a little girl.
"I'm very much fine Your Highness, what about you?" Kana opened his fan to hide his blushing face.
Prince Haii sigh loudly.
"I can't wait to make you my Empress."
***
Kana wake up, feeling like someone was hammering his head.
Gosh, what a dream!
He can't stop thinking about it, does the previous Kana and The second Prince was an item?
"Sheen! Are you there?" he called his servant lady when he tried to got up but felt dizzy.
"Yes young Master, are you alright?" Sheen appeared and immediately got worried in his distress aura. She helped him to sit on the bed.
"I have a question." Kana massage his temple.
"Does Kana... I mean, me... Do I have something with Prince Haii?" I whispered.
"What something Young Master?" Sheen didn't understand.
Kana wanted to slap himself.
How to put it in words?
"Do we have relationship or connection?"
Sheen's eyes turned wide like saucers.
"I must say that you like each other but your parents didn't want it."
"Elaborate further." Kana demanded.
So it's like a forbidden relationship?!
"First Consort Mia came from Yuan Empire, while your Mother Madame Yoon came from the Kingdom of Silla, Madame Yoon is the niece of the current King, and Your father General Han is afraid that they might use the military to oppose the current emperor, I heard that Commander Yin your brother once scolded you for that, you are not allowed to see and meet Prince Haii since Prince Sunwoo became the crown Prince." Sheen manage to say despite of being nervous. Her voice is quivering.
So that maybe the reason why he doesn't have any memories for the crown prince?
Sheen mentioned that the previous Kana often walk and mingle with the Crown Prince but why he can't remember it? Is it because the previous Kana loves Prince Haii?
And now that Prince Haii didn't get the Crown Prince title or obviously the next successor of the throne, having Kana as his wife is enough to give the power that they want.
Sheen mentioned that Madame Yoon is a noble lady and Consort Mia came from Yuan, if Prince Haii and Kana will be together, they can easily ask the assistance of the two neighboring kingdoms against the Emperor.
Kana remembered the soft expression of the Crown Prince when they walm together at the market, in the wodden Bridge and when Prince Sunwoo mess his hair.
Kana massage his head even harder.
This is more problematic than joining a war in the Warfield.
"Master pardon me, I can't talk any further.. I don't want to be punish." She begged.
"It's okay Sheen.. Go prepare my bath." he dismissed her, he don't want to ask any further or he will be gone nuts.
Sheen bowed at him before leaving the room to prepare his bath.
Kana is thinking about the rules of the selection.
If the previous Kana has feelings with Prince Haii, Kana is sure that the prince will be mad if he will be selected as Consort of the crown prince.
"I can't wait to make you my Empress."
Kana cringed on that.
He doesn't like the idea of having Prince Haii around him.
'I wonder what the previous Kana saw at that prince? Prince Sunwoo looks more handsome than him.'
Kana tap his forehead.
What he is thinking?
5Kana made up his mind.He overlooked the situation and according to the memories that floods on his mind, General Han has been serving the Emperor with all loyalty and honesty. Kana also asked Madame Yoon on how did they end up being together.According to her, General Han was sent by the Emperor Jong Munwoon, the current Emperor and the Father of the three prince, as reinforcement to help the Kingdom of Silla, which Kana found out was the part of the three kingdom in the now modern Korea when they got attacked by the Barbarians, General Han fought in all bravery that the King of Silla, Madame Yoon's Uncle, granted him a wish.He chose to marry Lady Yoon and their union became an instrument for Siam and Silla to be united.Kana remembered how kind the Crown Prince was when they met, he's so soft spoken and really educated.Kana wanted to laugh out loud when he realized what he wanted to do, back when he still didn't accept the fact that he traveled back in time, he wanted to go back
❤️❤️Kana started his day by baking cinnamon rolls because he crave to eat it. He wanted to laugh out loud when he asked the servants to help him. This is the first time that they saw their young master on the kitchen and they are afraid that Madame Yoon might be mad at them. "Young Master, please let us do this." The servants keep on pleading but Kana shush them out."This is easy, come on guys.. Why don't you do something for me? Please powderized these things." he handed them the cinnamon sticks and sugar.The two kitchen ladies obliged while Sheen helped him kneading the dough.It took them 2 hours to finally make a huge amount of cinnamon rolls, he can't help but drool when he put caramelized milk on top and mixed nuts.Kana was delighted upon his success on making the food that he wanted to eat. He even gave every servant, at first they are reluctant to try because they saw how Kana suffered on making the sweet treat but Kana threatened them that he will whip every one who won
At the Park Residences "How do I look, Lulu?" Lady Park Mianhae asked her personal servant after preparing herself. "You look absolutely beautiful my Lady." She said truthfully. "But I heard that the daughter of the General Han is more beautiful, they said that her face can launch a thousand ships... And to think everyone will join the selection.. I don't want her to join.. Do something for me Lulu!" "Just tell me what to do My Lady, my poor little idiot Step sister is working there as a new servant, we can use her as pawn."Lady Park smiled wickedly. "Perfect! The Crown Prince should choose me. Only me, Lady Park is suitable to sit with him on the dragon throne as his Empress." she proudly raise her chin. "Only you, my lady." Her servant agreed. ***That week, Kana nurture his skills on embroidery, cooking, tea making, dancing, literature and arts. He even ask the list of the ministers names and their jobs for him to be oriented and prepared. Gladly he's a fast learner, and he
***That day when Prince Haii visited, Kana didn't face him, Since Sheen already started the rumor of his master feeling ill and looking rather ugly.Prince Haii left agitated and worried so as the Crown Prince who came in a hurry but blocked by Commander Yin."There's no need for His Highness to come and visit Kana'er, he's been busy about the selection and meeting him can only add to the rumors." Commander Yin said while bowing his head."Is he alright?" Prince Sunwoo said in all weariness."He is alright your highness."Prince Sunwoo nodded and calm himself. He has been calmed until the day of the banquet came. The rumors spread like wildfire and it somehow delighted the Park family. The said rumors about the daughter of General Han keep circulating around until the day of the banquet came.This banquet is a way of welcome the attendees, specially prepared by her majesty the Empress.Kana is all set and ready, wearing a gray flower pattern hanfu, the line pattern on its sleeves ma
***The people who witnessed the performance where all open mouthed in shock. The rumors said that the lady of Han Family was ugly, and she does not possess any talent. What ugly?! She look like a fairy! What untalented?! She play the Flute with finesse and grace! The banquet went on after Kana finished his little performance, he keeps on looking at the Crown Prince who looked so proud and even sporting a wide smile after Kana performed his piece. Kana covered his mouth with his sleeves when he tried to suppress his smile but he can't, seeing the crown prince look proud on him somewhat give Kana the happiness that he never thought he will feel in this Era. Kana glance on Prince Haii who had a dark expression, he noticed that the Crown Prince and the lady of Han family has been stealing glances on each other which made him even more mad. Kana didn't even look at him for a long time, Prince Haii feels bad and it shows in his face so the First Imperial Consort whispered on him to
When the clock hits nine, drum rollings are heard all through out the palace to indicate the start of the selection. 30 ladies grace the wide Imperial courtyard including Kana who immediately go with the flow. "Good morning ladies, I hope you had a good night sleep." The Emperor said, but Kana wanted to laugh when he saw Lady Park looking so tired. She didn't sleep because she's paranoid, that's it. "Good morning Your Majesty," Everyone answered. The judges has been introduced, before the Empress announces. "So the start of this competition is Art, we already told you beforehand about art, so I am hoping that you have your materials with you on what you are planning to do as long as it is related to arts, I give you 10 minutes to prepare your things, and another 50 minutes to finish. Starts now!"Kana just shrugged it off, gladly he anticipated this, so this is like an art class in elementary schools, bring your own materials. His servants came, carrying his things on the table
Glamorous looking first Imperial Consort Mia graces the hallway to the chambers of the ladies who joined the competition. She's frowning in disappointment when she witness how Lady Park was left behind by the daughter of General Han. Trails of servants followed her, waiting for her orders. Back then, Consort Mia remembered when she was just a lowly concubine given by the Emperor of Yuan as a tribute to the Emperor, she work hard to be in what she is now, and she wanted Lady Park to be like her, or preferably to be the Empress. A woman like Lady Han won't bring her down and she pledge that she will help Lady Park in anyway she can. "Her highness Imperial Consort Mia has arrived." The servant on the door said before opening. Consort Mia prepared her comfort smile to give Lady Park encouragements but she is not shock to see Prime Minister Park inside. "I know that you are here, isn't this a perfect timing." Consort Mia smiled before she sat on the comfortable cushion inside the cha
After that scene in the garden with the Crown Prince, Kana really felt his knees wobbled, so he go back to his chambers and rest. He took time to plan on what he will cook for the cooking competition but he don't have any idea on what to cook. He don't want to ask Sheen or Lili or even his black angels for ideas. He wanted to do this alone without anyone's help. Kana is leisurely lying on the couch beside the window when Hoseok appeared. "Hoseok? What's wrong?" He abruptly get up and ask, Hoseok is the most calm amongst his shadow guards but now he look disturb and unease. "They move the competition now at 11 o'clock my Lady, and they will start complete or incomplete. You have only 15 minutes to reach the Imperial kitchen." Then he disappeared. Kana get up immediately, how does this happen? Who move the schedule? But it doesn't matter who, the real reason is they wanted him to lose in this round. He rush to the door, Sheen was outside waiting for them. " Where's Lili?!""You
