My Prince : Wang Yo

은별

Jihyun wore a new Hanbok which Wang So bought for her. She heard that he will be staying here in Songak for good. But then a question rised in her mind. Will she have to go back to Shinju?

"Why are we going to meet the King? Is he going to send me back?", Jihyun asked So as they both were waiting for the king in the court.

"I have no idea, Jihyun. But even if he wants to send you back I'll prevent that no matter what", Wang So assured her.

For now Jihyun decided to trust her brother. Soon the King entered alongside Wang Moo, the Crown Prince and Jimong. Jihyun and So bowed towards them.

"You get prettier every time I see you, Lady Kang"

"Aniyeyo. You are being kind, Crown Prince"

"The King has to tell you about something, Lady Kang", Jimong informed.

"I thought about my promise to keep you safe, Lady Kang. But keeping a girl away from her family without any reason leaves a bad impression on the royal family", the King spoke.

I guess I need to leave for the sake of the royal family, she thought.

"I came to a conclusion. I give you a chance to marry any of the prince and stay here as a part of our family", the King continued.

Jihyun looked at Wang So. So gave her a apologetic look. That was the only option left for her. So really wanted to help Jihyun but he couldn't go against the king after knowing the King was actually concerned about this matter and that was the best option to keep Jihyun by his side forever.

"Do you have any prince in your mind?", The Crown Prince asked her.

Everyone was waiting for her answer.

"The 3rd prince Wang Yo, your majesty", Jihyun answered.

Everyone was expecting Baek Ah or Wang Eun but her answer was not expected by any of them.

"I'm sorry your majesty, excuse us", Wang So pulled Jihyun out of the court.

"Oraboni, my hand hurts", Jihyun pulled her hand away from Wang So's tight grip.

"Are you crazy? Why him? You could have choosen someone else", Wang So screamed at Jihyun scaring her.

"I think I like him. Isn't that enough for me to choose him?", She replied.

"That guy tried to kill the Crown Prince"

"But he didn't, did he?"

"That's a suicidal choice"

"Can't you believe me with this? I think I can change him for good", Jihyun hissed.

"That's going to ruin your life Jihyun"

It's not mine anyways, Jihyun thought.

"No means no Jihyun. Go and tell the King that you are marrying Baek Ah. He is the best option"

"But I don't like him"

"Jihyun-ah, please", Wang So pleaded.

I'm doing this for you Oraboni.

"Oraboni, I can handle this on my own", Jihyun spat and went back to the King's court to inform the King about her final decision.

After returning from the court Jihyun went to meet Queen Yoo.

"What a pleasant surprise, Lady Kang"

"You offer us still available, right?"

"Are you done deciding?"

"I will marry your son", Jihyun announced and left the Queen's chamber.

"Princess please eat or else you will get sick", Jihyun stopped when she heard Princess Raon's voice.

She saw Raon trying to feed a young girl.

"Princess Raon"

"Jihyun-ah, What are you doing here?"

"I had some stuff to do. Need some help?"

"Can you?"

"Leave it to me", Jihyun took the chopsticks from Raon's hands and looked at the cute 6 years old girl who was refusing to eat.

"What is your name?", Jihyun talked to the girl but she got ignored.

"Her nam-"

"Not from you, Princess Raon. I want to hear her say that", Jihyun stopped Raon from speaking.

"Annyeong, I'm Jihyun... Kang Jihyun from Shinju. You know Shinju?", Jihyun asked the little girl.

And this time she nodded.

"What about Wang So?"

"She is scared of him", Raon informed Jihyun.

"Why? He just looks scary, but he is fun. Let's have fun with him once you finish your food", Jihyun tried to feed the younger girl but it was not an easy task.

"You don't want to eat this? Then let me show you some magic"

The little girl looked at Jihyun curiously when she mentioned magic.

"Look at this, the rice disappeared", Jihyun had wrapped the rice and some boneless meat inside the cabbage wrap.

"You want to see the next trick?", The girl nodded at Jihyun's words.

"Take a bite of this", this time the girl ate the wrap Jihyun made.

The little girl was surprised looking at the meat and rice inside the cabbage. Jihyun made a couple of wraps by changing the ingredients in each of them to keep the little girl busy with the so called magic which avoided her thinking about the food she was eating. After her eating was done Court lady Oh came to pick the little girl.

"Thank you so much, Jihyun-ah", Raon thanked Jihyun.

"That was nothing. I just love kids so much"

"Eunbyeol, My name is Eunbyeol", the little girl shouted loudly since she was a little far from them.

Her voice was sweet as honey which melted Jihyun's heart. Jihyun walked near her.

"Eunbyeol, it's a pretty name", Jihyun patted on the girl's head with a smile on her face.

"Lift me up", Eunbyeol grabbed Jihyun's skirt.

Jihyun did as she was told. The little girl pecked on Jihyun's cheek.

Wang Yo cleared his throat to get attention from the girls before saying, "Kang Jihyun, it seems my daughter also likes you"
