Chapter twenty

Apparently, I'm a consort in this world, gotta be careful not to get my head off. It seems Yuki's an emperor and had yet to choose an Empress.

"My lord, you have recovered. Your illness they said it couldn't get cured." A man spoke.

"Illness? I don't remember that." I spoke.

"His Majesty the Emperor is here!" A person shouted.

"My consort you have awakened at last." He spoke.

"Ah, greeting's I guess." I replied, "I wasn't expecting any visitors so sorry my clothes aren't the most..fancy, I guess."

Yuki looked at him and then walked over to sit on the bed with him.

"So, did you come..cause you wanted me to serve in bed or cause you wanted to?" I asked.

"B-B-Bed, no. Ahem, I just wanted to check on you nothing more." He spoke.

"Okay, So...what do you want to do? Cause if I suggest something you might take it offensively and off my head goes. So I thought I'd ask you to prevent my life ends too early." I replied.

(Cielo is the only one his majesty would allow to talk in such a way, another tried that and they wouldn't be seen again.)

"Nothing really, I just wanted to visit before I go back to my palace." He replied.

"Well, then why don't you have the chief's make your street food, that sounds really yummy," I spoke.

"My lord, it's not very proper to address his majesty informal," Tsu spoke in my ear.

"Oh yeah, forgot. But anyways I wanna go outside, maybe I should get a dog or something to walk every day or I could..."

Cielo had talked on and on and Yuki Said nothing at all and listened. Yuki never talked with Cielo before he was ill, he now more interested but he doesn't care if what he says sounds a..little much.

"My consort maybe you should get a physician to check you first before you think of all these things to do." He replied.

"Eh? Don't need to. I know I'm fine. I remembered in this book once where if you get the illness I did, the only way it could worsen if you put a...slice of white silver leaf. Though I don't know you would find it out the area they only grow way out in the mountains." I replied.

"White silver leaf? My consort, you're saying even though you've just awakened you could still be bedridden by a single leaf." He replied.

"Yeah, it's a dangerous leaf. If I remember correctly it can kill a wild bear, full-grown in under two minutes. One tasted the poison spreads through the whole heart then boom, dead. Didn't realize till the last second, a bear can mistake it for the black sliver leaf which is harmless and makes you live longer." I explained.

"My consort, you're so smart. The physicians should know this as well." Yuki patted Cielo's head.

"Hmm, they should know. I think that we should have food since I'm hungry, you can join if you like or ah go back to the whole mighty ruler of the world thing if you want." I replied.

"No, I'll stay." He replied, "Bring the food."

A servant scurried off and went to grab the food.

"So, I was wondering, other than me how women are you have here anyway?" I asked.

"15, Consort." He replied.

"15? That's a lot, I never knew. Oh, look there's the food, yay." I replied, "Ooh that looks really good, I'll eat that one first."

Yuki giggled, he never met someone so interested in food before.

"Eh? What's so funny? I didn't think food would make you giggle. Maybe we should go see a show, I hear there's a place you can have shows and their clothes are supposed to be worth Really much." I replied "I mean the clothes you gave me are pretty too but I think they're not my style, I'll just fix them up. If you don't mind."

"I don't, you can do whatever you want My consort." He replied.

"Hey you know what stop calling me consort or my lord this, that's a bunch of bull. Just call me Ami if you like that's a nickname for my first name which a lot of people say is girly but I think it's fine cause I mean my sisters way..meaner then you'd think. There this one time a boy tried asking me out thinking I was a girl right? My sister... the poor man had to put in the physician's place for five weeks." I replied.

"Five weeks? Who is this sister of yours?" He asked.

"Well her name is Snowflake Kinagure, a general I believe," I replied.

Yuki looked at Cielo in surprise, this is the little brother she was talking about.

"So Ami is the little brother of my most fierce general, huh. Why are you so..soft?" He asked.

"Hmm? I take after father, he's the male Empress Dowager. Didn't you know? Why do you think so many consorts try to get me to like them, so they can get my fathers to favor. I never met the emperor though." I replied.

"Then how were you born?" He asked.

"Oh see father had a wife who gave birth to me and sister before he entered the palace, he said that the late emperor was the sweetest husband he ever had." I replied, "Oh just so you know you're a child from the late empress, not the current one."

"Well I had such a lovely time, it's getting late and I should get going." He replied.

"Oh yeah that's right, there's a festival I should get clothes on. Thanks for having food with me, Your majesty or whatever." I replied.

Yuki left the room and walked back to his palace and heard his attendant speak "Your majesty, he was so rude and didn't ask for your permission for no titles at all."

"Silly fool, I like him. He's no so...proper or cunning either. He doesn't care for my favor doesn't care that there are 15 other women in the harem, he even told me to call him a first name, not me telling him, he doesn't care that his head can get chopped off, I mean he cares but doesn't act as he cares. He said he was going to the festival didn't even ask for my permission." He replied.

"Oh hey, a...Tsu said I needed to ask you if I can go out of the palace cause apparently it will cause rumors and not good...so whatever can I go? If not that's like okay, cause I'll just read a book or something." I replied.

"Ami, would you like to go walk in the courtyard with me?" He asked.

"Hey is that like a date? I mean I married to Yeah but you haven't confessed your love for me so...yeah." I replied.

"A date? Alright, you can call it that." He replied.

Yuki grabbed Cielo's hand walked within the courtyard as A young woman with many servants and Super fancy clothes come up to them.

"Greetings to your majesty, and consort Kinagure." She spoke.

"Hi," I replied.

"My lord that's noble consort Suchi, please greet her properly." Tsu scolded.

"Oh sorry, I mean greetings to her highness." I replied "I thought I'd say hi cause you look like a person from a...Kyoto, one of them Noble girls they always are so causal and stuff."

"Consort Kinagure, please do not compare her highness to a girl from Kyoto. They are very different." A servant spoke.

"Don't be so proper, call me Cielo everyone does." I replied, "Mama says as long as your nice people will always be nice back if they ain't hit them with your shoe as hard as you can till they so sorry."

Yuki really didn't want to meet his mother in law she sounds scary...

"Well? Did I forget to ask? Does your highness by any chance have some black sliver leaves, they make some good tea, I wanna try and make some." I replied.

"I have some white silver leaves," Suchi replied.

"They're no good less you wanna kill someone. Those can kill an adult bear, don't know why you have those, you shouldn't drink that tea not only can it kill you, if you have the right amount you could cause a miss carriage so yeah be careful of that." I replied.

"Oh you know what we should have Dragon leaf tea, that's stuff good. But we don't have any, so there's no way we would find some in this season, I guess we have to wait till spring to find some." I replied.

"My consort, you should head back. What if you get lost? Then I'll have to find you, myself." He spoke.

"Bye, I wouldn't get lost anyways. I have this stiff guy right here to make sure I don't get lost. Byeeee! I'll see you whenever." I replied.

Cielo left following Tsu, then there was Suchi and Yuki alone in the courtyard.

(It was supposed to be me and My consort alone, this woman I've heard from the servants she very means, if she's that way with My consort then I'll have her head off)

"I will take my leave, your majesty." She replied.

NC left and Yuki walls back inside and sleeps on his bed happy for the next day, meanwhile, Cielo is reading on his bed and falls asleep with the book on him. Inside his room is a tea prepared by the NC, she planned to kill him off not knowing what will happen tomorrow.
