Taming Her Highness the Princess

13 – I wanted to show you

At the same time, the courtyard of the Lotus Palace.

“Ruinel! Ruineel!”

Irea, who found Ruinel while wandering around the Lotus Palace, runs with an innocent smile on her face. There were several familiar people behind Ruinel, but they didn’t matter much to Irea now.

“I’ve been looking for you for a long time! Where were you and what were you doing?”

“Oh, I-“

“It’s okay. ‘Cause there’s no need to apologize Rather, would you like to see this?”

Irea raised both her hands confidently. Ruinel lowered her gaze, wondering what she wanted to show her, and found a bellbird sitting on Irea’s hand.

I see a bellbird made of flames waddling around with a dainty gesture. Although it was more sloppy than what Jeniel had shown before, Irea’s bellbird was also quite complete.

“Did Your Highness make this?”

When Ruinel asked, admiring her heart, Irea confidently nodded her head.

“Yes! It’s the result of practicing all day yesterday.”

“Your Highness is practicing…… That’s awesome. The bellbirds are also very cute.”

“That’s right!”

Excited to hear her praise, Ireah smiles brightly, revealing her white teeth. However, Irea’s full bloom smile gradually faded as she became conscious of the people standing behind her Ruinel.

“…… Huh? But who are these people?”

I’m familiar with them somewhere, but I’m not sure what they’re doing. Now that Irea has her doubts, the eldest woman steps forward to her and politely bows her head.

“Your Highness the Princess. It’s an honor to meet you. My name is Medallan, and I am in charge of the head of the Senate. For the past twenty years, she has overseen the imperial family’s clothes, so I hope you can trust her.”

If it was a member of the upper house, it was the place where the imperial family’s clothes were made, and if it was a fisherman’s house, it was the highest official position there. Irea didn’t understand that. Exactly, I don’t understand why Eochimjang came here directly.

“I always enjoy wearing clothes made by Eochimjang. By the way, you don’t have to come to the lotus palace yourself, do you? As usual, you can have someone deliver the clothes to you.”

“That is…… This time, His Majesty himself ordered it, so I made my own outerwear and came here.”

Outdoor clothes? The story went deeper and deeper. Ruinel cleared her throat as Irea raised her question mark above her head. Come to think of it, she had a Wen scroll in her hand.

“Your Highness. Do you remember that Professor Jenial told me to prepare for the outing?”

“Huh? Ah…… If that’s the case, I’m thinking of rejecting it. I couldn’t answer because I wasn’t in a hurry at the time, but I don’t have the desire to go out of the lotus palace.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t think that will work.”

One of Irea’s eyebrows furrows as she hears her refusal from Louis Nel. Refuse? Even though she was an old friend and escort driver, this was her crossing the line.

“Ruinel! What kind of nonsense is that now-“

“Because this is Your Majesty’s order.”

Irea’s mouth shuts up. It was because what Ireah feared more than Jenial was her father, the Emperor.

Ruinel, who knew that, unwrapped the string of the scroll with a slightly apologetic smile. Afterwards, he unfolded the scroll on both sides and, after clearing his voice once, shouted loudly:

“My daughter, Irea, listen! Jung Seo-ryeong and your professor said that since the princess never stepped out of the lotus palace, her sociability was questionable! Shouldn’t she have to listen to her servants talking about this ill-stricken father?”

“Ha, but…… !”

“If you hear this, you must be thinking of making excuses again. Knowing that, I will make this father give you the best artisans in the imperial palace along with the fisherman. When it comes to dressing up, no one can follow them, so dress up as pretty as you can and go to social gatherings.”

After finishing his words, Luinel put down the scroll. Irea, who became contemplative, was shaking her head, but she had to say something.

“Since it is the imperial order, you will have to follow it. Everyone please do it.”

“Lu, Ruinel!?”

Was Ruinel such a scary woman? She wanted to protest why she was doing this to me, but she couldn’t afford it.

“Your Highness. I will make you the most beautiful woman in the world.”

“Come over here.”

Her World A chimjang with an evil smile and her artisans were slowly approaching with both hands outstretched.

“Hee, hee…… !”

Irea tried to get away from her, but her sharp protruding body caught her by the wrist of Irea. Thanks to this, Ireah felt her goosebumps rising.

“Let go, let go! Reckless! She is the owner of the Lotus Palace, and she is the noblest lineage in the empire!”

“Yes. Since it is an order from someone more noble than His Majesty, we have no choice but to follow it.”

“You ignorant bastard! You guys really don’t know that it’s dangerous outside the lotus palace…… !”

Irea tried to resist as much as possible with her authoritative tone, but it was futile. The more she did, the more she became a prey for the laughing masters.

“Young master. We have arrived.”

At the driver’s words, Jeniel closed the professional book he was reading. When you open the back seat door and come out, you will see the front yard of Yeonhwagung, where a splendid fountain spouts water.

Since the sunset was setting and darkness was about to come, it must have been time. Jennie Earl, who was looking around her to see if she knew she was still there, soon found a group of people.

In the center of the place where her laughter echoes warmly, I see Irea trudging along. Judging by the gloomy expression on her face, it seemed that she hated going out terribly.

‘By the way… ….’

Her Ireah’s appearance has changed a lot. Her long, straight pink hair was braided and curled up on top of her, and a light make-up was applied to her face, enhancing her already gorgeous appearance.

Her outfit was also changed to a dress instead of her usual cardigan and skirt. A black evening dress that boldly exposes her shoulders and upper chest.

The hem of her dress shimmered as if it were filled with stars, and a part of her side was open, so the skin below her thighs was occasionally exposed whenever Ireah walked.

She wears high heels and earrings that look expensive even at first glance. Her figure was different from the plain figure of Ireah that we usually see at Yeonhwa Palace.

‘Is it really a member of the upper house?’

I never thought she could dress up a woman who couldn’t dress up so perfectly. Jenny Earl admired her heart, but Irea, who borrowed the power of Sang-sang’s won, looked gloomy like her puppy in the rain.

The artisans around her often praised her for her beauty, but Irea didn’t seem to be able to hear it, but her expression was fierce.

Jenny Earl lets her laugh low, thinking that she is indeed a child of seven. Eventually, as Ireah reached the vicinity of her vehicle, Jennie Earl placed her hand on her chest and lightly bowed her head.

“Your Highness the Princess.”

After receiving her greeting, Ireah naturally looked at Jennie Earl. She looks pretty cool wearing a pomade with her bangs neatly swept back and wearing a banquet tailcoat.

But what’s the point? Ireah pouted and looked at her like a student forced to attend a class she didn’t want to attend.

‘She doesn’t even want to be greeted.’

She seemed to hate leaving the lotus palace. At that point, she couldn’t argue with her, so Jenial took her eyes off Ireah and looked back at the others.

“I would like to express my gratitude to the members of the upper house who worked hard to help Her Highness dress up. From now on, I will serve Your Highness, so it’s okay if you go back.”

The members of the upper house who listened to Jenial’s words bowed their heads with smiles on their faces. Ruinel hesitated for a moment, but gave up and bowed his head when he realized that he could not go with him as an escort.

After Ruinel and the upper house craftsmen were sent away, Irea was left alone. Still looking uncomfortable, Jeniel opened the back seat door without speaking.

“Let’s get on.”

Irea got into her car without saying anything, knowing that she could not avoid going out now, apart from feeling bad.

Jeniel also opened the door of the opposite seat and got into the car. Then, the waiting driver steps on her accelerator and starts driving naturally.

Vehicles that had left Yeonhwa Palace and were running along the main road of the Imperial Palace soon entered the city center. Tall and low buildings are lined up with rows of streetlights.

Jenial, who had been reading specialized books, looked back at Irea. I see Ireah looking at the scenery outside the window with her hands on her knees with a rugged expression.

Thanks to that, Jenny Erl, who had no choice but to look at the back of Ireah’s head, noticed that the cherry blossom-shaped hairpin that decorated his rolled-up hair was a little crooked.

“Your Highness. Let me excuse you for a moment.”

After saying that, Jeniel gently adjusted the position of Irea’s hairpin. Thanks to this, Irea looks back at her with her shoulders twitching.

“Ba, what did you just do?”

“Ah. The position of the hairpin was crooked, so I just adjusted it.”

Was it like that? She was surprised to think that she was touching her hair on her own, but she felt embarrassed. When Ireah hesitated, unable to choose what to say next, Jenial struck first.

“You dressed up so beautifully, why are you in such a bad mood?”

Is it beautiful? Irea’s dazed mind turns pure white at Jeniel’s sudden words. It was because he didn’t know that the word “Beautiful” Would come out of Jennie Earl’s mouth.

“Oh, um… ….”

Unknowingly, Ireah, who was flustered with his face flushed, lifted the fan he was holding in his hand and spread it out. It seemed that if he didn’t cover his face, his embarrassment would be revealed.

“I knew. As for how beautiful I am…….”

When did you bring the fan again? I don’t know for sure, but Irea’s depressed mood seemed to have eased, so Jenial decided to be satisfied.

In the meantime, the vehicle entered a long tunnel. A vehicle traveling through a tunnel with sparse white lights gradually slows down in a specific section and stops.

“Huh? Why here…….”

Irea made a face that she didn’t know why, but Jenial was calm.

“We are planning to change vehicles in preparation for an unexpected chase. It may be cumbersome, but I hope that Your Highness will cooperate.”

I just want to go to a social church. Do I need to go this far? Ireah was doubtful, but decided to do what Jenial said and nodded.

After getting off the car, Irea and Jenial changed to a luxury sedan parked nearby and got on board. However, this time, Jenial sat in the driver’s seat and Irea sat in the passenger’s seat.

‘I was told to ride, so I did… ….’

How can I get there without a driver? By the time Ireah had another question mark over her head, Jennie Earl started the car, shifted gears, and gently stepped on the accelerator.

The vehicle driving along the road soon exits the tunnel and shows a bright view of the archipelago. Having experienced all of this, Irea looked back at Jenial without hiding her surprise.

“Did you even drive?”

What is the purpose of this question?

Jenial was puzzled but answered.

“Of course you can.”

“I know driving is very difficult…… !”

“It’s not that hard. Your Highness will also be able to obtain a driver’s license when he becomes an adult next year.”

Jenial’s figure as if it’s nothing special and turns the steering wheel looks amazing. Irea’s heart pounded strangely as she glanced at Jeniel, who was absorbed in driving.

‘Jeniel is an adult… ….’

She recognized her obvious fact, and Ireah felt as if she had stepped closer to her adult world.
