(Eng-AC FF) Unspoken Love ✔

Episode 17

People from the Bachidore Tribe walked down the road in the middle of the city, delivering the bodies of two of their elders who had been murdered viciously, to be buried on the edge of the city. The Harim family participated because they also came from the Bachidore tribe. People from other tribes gathered and looked at them with pity.

"That is the consequence for not obey to Tagon Niruha," one man whispered.

"But they shouldn't have been killed that easily, right? Their heads were destroyed ..." said another while shuddering.

"Oh ... that's Lady Tanya ..." exclaimed a woman.

Tanya followed by Yangcha, her bodyguards and servants, walked over to the procession of the corpse. Tanya looked at one by one Bachidore people who looked sad and devastated. Suddenly Tanya knelt on the ground. Yangcha didn't get in the way of the girl doing the action. And everyone who saw this was shocked, including Bachidore's people.

"Wh ... what are you doing, Lady?" asked Harim.

"I apologize for what happened to the Bachidore elders," Tanya said.

"Ouch ... you don't have to do this. After all, you didn't do anything wrong," said one of the Elders family members.

"That's right, the one who should apologize is Tagon Niruha," Nunbyeol said nonchalantly. Chaeun nudged her, forbade her to speak carelessly.

"Get up, Lady, your clothes will get dirty," Harim said.

Tanya got up and Wurumi helped pat Tanya's skirt that was hit by the ground.

"We will prepare a proper burial ceremony for them and give comfort to those of you who are grieving," said Tanya.

And all who saw this spread how generous the empress was.

From the top of the palace, Tanya could see the activities of her people around the palace. She remembered Tagon's words that she could do nothing but obey orders if she did not have power. So Tanya wants to try to find power by winning the hearts of her people. But that does not mean that the kindness that she gives to the people are merely political sensations. She sincerely did it, but she also hoped that the people would eventually side with her who wanted to stop Tagon's tyranny.

"I heard what you did this morning," said Tagon who appeared behind Tanya.

"Good job," continued Tagon, "You managed to calm them down. The cruel king and the merciful empress, we are a very harmonious couple."

"To be exact, you are the one to act bad and I cleared it," said Tanya sarcastically.

"Are you still mad at me?"

Suddenly Tagon hugged Tanya from behind. The girl flinched and was about to release Tagon's hand from her waist, but Tagon tightened his arms even more, even putting his head on his wife's shoulder.

"I'm sorry. Yesterday I was very rude to you. When you said you wanted to go home to Iark, I was angry and frantic, because I didn't want to lose you. I don't know since when, but I realized that I had fallen in love with you."

Tagon let go of his arms and turning Tanya's body to face him, "I promise I will try to be a better person."

Tagon's face approached, he was about to kiss Tanya's lips, but the girl looked away. Tagon just smiled faintly and left from there.

Yangcha knocked on Tanya's door. After there was a signal from inside, he entered. Agaji was putting a hairpin on Tanya's hair which was neatly rolled. Yangcha put a big bag near the door.
