Hong Raon.

Today is the day that me and The king  will get married. I was dress so that I couldn't see the king, my future husband. My silk robes were given to me by the King's father.

I got dressed in my finest royal robes and I set off on horse back to Raon's house. I was with two men, one carrying an umbrella and the other who was dressed in read carrying a goose. When I got to the house, I look up and saw the first glimpse of my bride through a small window. But she cannot see me. Her face is covered with white powder, patched with spots of red, and her eyelids are glued together by an adhesive compound. Guided by attendants, the bride would bow to the groom twice and he would bow to her four times and thus the wedding was completed. According to one source, wedding papers were also exchanged — the groom's document bore the print of her thumb in red wax while the bride's document bore the groom's seal. The bride is alleged to have "guarded her marriage certificate as her life" because the groom could not remarry until he had his paper back.

After the official ceremony, I went back and ate with my friends for a short time and goes back to his quarters to get ready for my bride's arrival.

I was so frightened because I couldn't see anything. I arrive at my parent In law's house. I mean the palace and bow at the kings feet and return back to my parents home to remove my make up and have my eyes unsealed. Later His majesty returns and stays the night and in the morning returns back to the palace. I say nothing to him until after three days.

After three days I return to the palace and stay there for good.

After 3 weeks
I head to the queen's quarters where my maids are waiting for me. I start my duty. I enter the Sajeongjeon to listen in with the daily meetings with the king. Then after the meetings I head back to Gyotaejeon. Where I was greeted by Jinyoung. One of my masters when I was an Eunch at the palace before.

"Congratulations on your wedding Raoni" Jinyoung says.

"Thank you very much." I thank.

"How was your day so far, my queen?" Jinyoung asked.

"Well it's been going okey. Would you like to walk with me in the gardens." I asked

" yes, your majesty," Jinyoung replied.

I got up and walk with Jinyoung beside me. We walked through the Yeongjegyo bridge, through the courts and then the gardens. We sat on the swing benches and talked. It has been a long time since we talked to each other.

"Have had a chance to speck with Half breed?" I questioned

"No, but I do have a meeting with him in a few days time," he says.

"To just warn you, he hasn't changed a bit, he is still his old usual self." I explained.

"The person with a short temper?" He asks.

"Yes, he doesn't know when to or when to not bark." I explained while laughing.

"Oh Christ Almighty, he hasn't changed. Also you haven't changed either. You are the same Raon that I met a long time ago,"Jinyoung agreed

Then one of the palace guards came to the gardens and said

"Your majesty, The king wants to see you."

"Okey." I say with a confused look.

So I got up, and I bowed before Jinyoung and he did the same and I set off to the Geunjeongjeon where the kind was. When I entered the throne room, I was shocked to see princess Xian lee.

"Pleasure to see you again Princess Xian Lee," I say.

"The pleasure is all mine, your highness," princess Xian lee says while bowing before me.

" what brings you here to Josen?" I asked Princess Xian Lee.

"Well I wanted to visit you, and my brother." Princess Xian lee looks at the king and smirks.

"Well you must be tired, let me escort you to your quarters..." I suggest.

"Yes please, thank you." She says thankfully.

As I see my wife lead my sister to her quarter, I go to Kim Byung to do some sword training. So I head back to my quarters and get out of my royal robes and into my training robes. As I was making my way down to the outer courts, I see Kim Byung training. I call out to him, he bows to me, I draw out my sword and we start the training. I practice my skills so that I can be ready when something bad happens.

I get my maids to help Princess Xian Lee unpack. She just came to visit us because she lives in Qing. She lives with father King and Mother Queen. She quite young coming here all by herself. So I suggested that we should walk around the palace courts. I was feeling underneath the blue today. I don't know why, so I just shake it off and keep walking. So Princess Xian Lee and I talk and laugh while we walk around. It was quite sunny so we had Eunuch Sung holding the parasol for us. We walked to the courts were the king and Kim Byung were training at.

"Eunuch Sung, I will be resting here. Please bring some chairs and place them on the shaded area please," I commanded

" yes, your Highness," Eunuch Sung says and prepares my order as quickly as he can.

When my order was complete, both Xian and I sit down and watch the training. I look in the distance and there was the king and Kim Byung training. I was feeling a little hot and wanting to vomit.

"Princess Xian Lee, please feel my head," I asked

"My queen, you seem to have a fever. You look pale." She says

I stand up and walk a little but all of a sudden, I feel so airy and collapsed onto the ground.
