Where flowers wither {Completed}

Chapter twelve(a)

I decided to go and pay my respects after breakfast, I met Consort Yeon woo on my way and we happen to be going to the same place.
When we were granted audience with Consort Yeon hee, we entered.
"Yoo hwa and Yeon woo greet your highness" I say as we bow.

"Please there is no need for formalities you should refer to me as mother"
"Please sit"

"How are you coping with the palace?" she asked.

"The palace is a nice place to live in, we are very much pleased" Consort Yeon woo said.

"I am sorry his Majesty doesn't visit often"

"It is understandable, we know he is very occupied"

I scratched my neck round slowly while they talked.

"You don't seem fine, is it the rashes from few weeks ago" Consort Yeo n hee asked worried.

"No, I have infected this minor skin disease" I informed making it audible to the two maids standing at the corner.

"You should be staying in your chamber to get better, being out in the cold could make it worse"
"You two should be more careful"

"We will, royal mother"
*******
"Arghh your pulling it too hard"

"But Agasshi it is so much, it won't sit well"

"Just keep folding it and tie them together"

"Are we going to do this every morning?"

"I really don't want to cut it"

"Then just wear the cap, since I have been praying you get rejected, it will be just for today"
I glare at her.
"I really don't want to die this young"

"If anyone is dying it will be me"

"It means the same thing"
I glanced up at her almost touched.

"Are you sure this won't fall off?it is so scanty"I observed placing my hand on where it covers my birth mark.

"Let's just go Agasshi"

"Oh I almost forgot, one more thing"
I went over to my make up set and drew a dark line on my cheek,making it up to look like a scar.
