I Became the Master of the Empress

90 – Episode 90

After finishing work, eating with family…

I say this while looking at Debian, who is lying on the sofa as a bed.

“Why are you lying there?”

You can’t say… You’re going to sleep over there with a sick body, right?

“That’s right, I used to sleep here, right?”

I get irritated when my husband answers my words with clear eyes.

The subject had been unconscious for almost two weeks.

I got angry and screamed when I was told that I would sleep on an uncomfortable sofa despite my body not being healthy.

“You are a patient now! “Can’t you go to bed now?”

Really. Shocking. Don’t you even know the state of your body right now?

“Huh…? Huh?!”

Whether I thought that or not, my husband was startled and said strange things.

“Ah… No! “Men and women are different, so how can they share the same bed?!”

Are men and women different?

I answered because I was dumbfounded that he was saying nonsense and wondering where he had thrown away his usually intelligent self.

“We are a married couple. “How about a couple sharing a bed?”

“Huh?”

I continue as I look at Debian, who is surprised, as if he didn’t know I was going to say this.

“What would everyone think of me if I made you sleep on the sofa when you were sick? Are you planning to make me a bad wife? “Now wake up.”

I tug on Debian’s wrist and get lost in thought.

No! Why are you being considerate of me despite my sick body?

To be honest, I’m annoyed by that idiot.

You got hurt because of me, and your body hasn’t fully recovered yet.

When I see Debian brightly saying that he will sleep on a hard and uncomfortable sofa, I feel a pang of guilt in my heart.

Why are you so considerate of me? You are a patient, right? Then isn’t it okay to be a little selfish?

I pulled on his arm hard, feeling grateful that he cared for me so much and feeling guilty that I couldn’t give him anything in return, but…

Debian, a sturdy man, doesn’t move, so I frown.

“It’s really not going to happen?”

It will come out like that, right?

“Hmph, good. If you want to sleep here like that. “I have a method for everything.”

Saying that, he strides over to the bed, picks up the pillow, and heads towards Debian.

Debian looks at me with a puzzled look.

I tell him.

“What are you doing? “Do you want to go further in?”

“What… Are you doing?”

I left him flustered and placed a pillow next to him on the sofa and said.

“Because you said you don’t sleep in bed. I’m going to sleep here too. “Let’s go inside.”

When he saw my actions, he let out a small sigh.

“Phew… No, I’ll go to bed.”

hehehe… I won.

We lay side by side on the bed like that.

I feel worried when I see Debian on the corner of the bed.

It must be quite cold over there.

In the middle of winter, the blanket is a little warm and I start to worry when I see him in the corner.

“You… you’ll catch a cold if you stay in the corner like that.”

As I gently pull on his clothes, Devian responds.

“It’s a little chilly… But not enough to catch a cold.”

Today, I feel unfamiliar with Debian, which says stupid things differently than usual.

“Oh my… What are you talking about? “Why don’t you come here?”

Debian speaks as if it is embarrassed by my words.

“Huh…? Uh? No! “It’s warm here too!”

It looks really cold to anyone, but seeing Debian say it’s warm makes me worry.

Could it be because of the poison that my head became strange?

I was worried, but…

I soon learned why Debian is like that.

Are you embarrassed by sleeping with me now?

Now that I understand his embarrassed tone and behavior, I find it cute.

Well, it’s even weirder not to share a bed with someone you love.

Actually, I too… I’m a little nervous.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t want to see Devian suffering from a cold, so I act calm.

“Why are you so embarrassed? Don’t talk nonsense and come here. “Don’t make me upset by catching a cold for no reason.”

-Excited… Excited…

I try to sound as relaxed as possible.

My heart is pounding so hard…

I’m so excited that I’m worried that Debian might hear this sound.

“Uh…Yeah…”

-Sreuk…

But Debian seems not to have heard my heartbeat, so it moves gently towards me…

I say this out of frustration as I see that it has moved just a little bit… Just a little bit.

“Aren’t there any more coming?”

“Is it still close?”

His trembling voice is so lovely.

He always showed his adult side, but seeing him shy like this is so cute and lovely, but he speaks firmly.

“Can’t you come any faster?”

-Sureuk.

After moving once more, I finally see that I’m in the middle of the bed and smile.

“Good job.”

And stroke his head.

I stroked the head of the unconscious man, hoping he would recover quickly.

Now it has become a habit.

When I touch his soft hair. I feel good.

hehehe… Are you embarrassed?

Debian twitches slightly.

I ask because I find it so adorable that he reacts differently than when he is unconscious.

“hehehe, are you embarrassed by sleeping with me?”

“You weren’t embarrassed?”

Debian says no to what I say.

I smile involuntarily at the sound of a voice that I would hear when a mischievous prank is played on a child.

Aren’t you probably imagining something wild just because you sleep with me?

Of course, I want to become one with him, but since his body hasn’t fully recovered yet…

I am worried and promise to do the following.

If I say this… You’ll probably think I gave permission, right?

But… Wouldn’t they think it looks too cheap?

I’m worried, but he endured this long for me…

I think it’s time for me to answer.

-Sreuk…

I gently stroke Devian’s arm and say,

“Today… Since you just woke up… I can’t do it today, so I have to hold on tight, right?”

Is it because my body gets a little hot without me even realizing it?

I say something that would normally be difficult to say.

“So. If you focus on recovering your body… Next time… Ha… I’ll let you do it. “Okay?”

I feel like my heart will stop.

In romance novels, female protagonists don’t know how to say such embarrassing things…

Debian’s face gets hot and he flinches at my words.

I ask him in a slightly bright voice.

“Answer?”

As if he didn’t know I was going to say this, I touched Debian’s stiff lips and urged him to answer.

“Huh?… Yes…”

When I hear the answer in a foolish voice, I feel a little embarrassed without realizing it.

It’s like a seductress bewitching her husband, isn’t it?

Speaking quickly out of embarrassment and embarrassment.

“Good night, Debian.”

Is it because Devian lost consciousness and used the same bed every day?

When I smell his scent, I feel a little at ease.

I hope tomorrow is as happy as today…

That’s how you lose consciousness.

***

Head to the study hall early.

Perhaps because it is the dead of winter, the corridor feels chilly.

“Your Majesty the Grand Duke! “Are you feeling okay?”

When the soldier guarding the Grand Duchy spoke with a surprised face, I smiled and spoke.

“Yes, thanks to you, I can live well now. “How are you?”

“Yes! I heard you regained consciousness yesterday. “Please rest a little more.”

“hahahaha, I want to do that too, but I can’t rest comfortably when I think about all the work I have to do in the meantime.”

I entered the main study hall and made a cup of coffee in the bathroom.

It’s been almost two weeks since this came out, but I feel a little better because nothing has really changed.

Then, shall we do some work after a long time?

When I open my office, the blue light of dawn coming through the window softly illuminates my room.

“Huh…?”

I fall into despair as I see documents piled up with no room to step and a tower made of paper on my desk.

“Haaa…”

My head is already pounding.

I can’t help it.

It is said that Theodora and Agrippa watched from time to time, but they also had their own work to do.

It would have been impossible to process them all.

“Anyway, for someone who has just become conscious…”

Wouldn’t it be too harsh to ask you to do all of that?

But you can’t do it roughly.

-Percussion.

Place the coffee cup on the desk and quickly review the documents on the desk first.

Huh? This?

A report approving the official launch of a technology investment fund because more money than expected has been collected.

Is this… More than you can imagine?

I’m not kidding, I was surprised to see that the investment amount was more than the empire’s budget for a year, so I quickly looked at the list of investors.

I found out why.

I click my tongue when I see the situation where even great nobles and ordinary nobles are investing even a small amount.

You smell money well.

Even Ioannes put money into an investment fund.

Should I like this or not…

First, sign and then move on to the next agenda items.

Reports have recently come in that research is being conducted in earnest on fertilizer production… I sigh as I look at the report asking for money because investment funds have run out.

“There are no results, but you are just asking for money.”

Okay… Making fertilizer can’t be easy.

Next time it will be paid from the investment fund.

Fortunately, I am willing to approve, thinking that there is still plenty of money earned in the last war.

Huh? This has already been approved?

Report on the creation of the Ministry of Information.

When I saw that the approver was Agrippa, I just passed.

I guess you can take care of it yourself.

After that, the imperial tax reform plan will be reviewed.

But the length is no joke.

“Haa…”

When I look at it roughly, I am in despair because there are 5 documents exceeding 500 pages.

In addition, the court must review and approve or reject the death sentence sentence.

If you look at the pending rulings and related materials…

“Damn… Let me do something like this…”

I don’t know if Agrippa and Theodora thought that reviewing the verdict was not important, or if they did not process it because of the overwhelming volume…

It gives me a headache knowing that I have to handle so much.
