Surviving the Romance Fantasy - Surviving the Romance Fantasy chapter 107
Is this a place where the candidate for the owner of Cheonryongchae can come and go as he pleases? It may have been what I wanted when I came in, but not when I left.
If you can’t avoid it, you have no choice but to enjoy it.
Smile at the world like a half-mad person.
Yes. He is the master who subordinates and rules over the deputy general, Seol Taepyeong.
This is because he is the owner of Cheonryongchae.
“Some officials from the Sealbongha family came to Xuanwu Palace. “It seems like some of the maids at Hyeonmu Palace had a hand in the food ingredients.”
“…”
It seemed to have become public knowledge that the young people of Hyeonmu Palace used to prepare meals and cook and eat the leftover ingredients.
In fact, there was no need to argue about even touching the remaining food ingredients. However, if we were to strictly enforce the strict standards of military law, it would all be considered gross disloyalty.
In short… it was a catch.
Although it was not Hyunbi’s direct fault, her inability to manage her subordinates was likely to be a major flaw.
Like Deokbi, who had a sinister mind… he started to ‘make a dent’ in earnest.
This is just the beginning.
Stealing food ingredients that were meant to be thrown away does not amount to a serious crime. He just throws a check and hints to Po Hyeon-bi.
This means that you should quickly let go of the anger you have hidden under your skirt before it escalates for no reason.
Po Xuanbi gritted his teeth and thought.
Don’t even blink!!!!!!
“Consort Yin told me that she would like to discuss the Five Classics and military law at this seminar event. “It seems difficult to refuse…”
It was an academic event held periodically on a podium called the academic platform of the main palace.
The idea was to gather together scholars and discuss the topic of the effectiveness of military law in a place where they showed off their knowledge of scriptures.
In short, it was an application for a war of words. An honest and upright duel challenger was truly worthy of a noble lady.
“…”
“Po Hyeonbi…”
It is difficult to shake one’s head on a proposal made in a formal letter like this without a justifiable justification.
This is because it is a great injustice to the person who put in the effort to make the offer.
As for Hyeonbi, she was always reading and studying scriptures, but she could not be as good at academics and speaking as Ingwibi.
As I’ve said many times, Po Hyeon-bi is just an innocent girl who runs around picking herbs at the foot of Baeksaksan Mountain.
“Let’s give it a try!!!!!”
However, with a fire burning in his eyes, Po Xuanbi stayed up all night reading the entire Five Classics and memorizing it word for word.
Anyway, once you catch your eye, you almost never forget it. All I had to do was organize my thoughts on military law and scriptures, and refine my speech with the head maid An Lim.
Looking at the mirror and raising her voice, Hyeonbi shouted again in her heart.
Snow too!!!! surprise!!!! I won’t do it!!!!!
The next day, the magistrate of the Hobu (戶部), where Seonbong Haga took power, filed a formal complaint regarding the current state of financial waste at Hyeonmu Palace.
Hyeonbi Po stayed up all night with the head maid An Lim to review and send a letter proving that such a thing was not true.
The next day, Queen In sent me a letter asking if I would like to try archery.
Po Hyeon-bi, who practiced pulling the bow for almost a week, was unable to beat In Gwi-bi, but achieved enough results to not be defeated by him.
The next day, Ha Deok-bi reported the working status of Hyeonmu Palace’s maids…
The next day, my wife suggested that we discuss tea together…
The day after that…
The next day…
“….”
Seol Taepyeong, who visited Hyeonmu Palace late at night after supervising the construction work of the active room, was completely speechless.
Leaning on the wooden table in the tea room, Po Hyeon-bi, whose skin had turned pale, was pleading.
“I burned it, Taepyeong. “I burned everything…”
“Pohyeonbi… I never thought you would suffer this much…”
“Yes… Taepyeong… You are someone that no one can handle… But!!!!”
Po Hyeon-bi jumped up and had stars shooting out of his eyes.
“Even though the Jeongseon family and the sealing family tried to do something about me, I didn’t budge…! “You must have understood well that my stubbornness is not normal..!”
“Po Hyeonbi-nim…!”
Seol Tae-pyeong wiped away tears of joy.
I knew very well that Po Hyeonbi lived and died by loyalty, but I did not know that she would exert herself this much.
So Po Hyeon-bi complained for a long time.
Seol Taepyeong knew best how difficult Ingwibi and Ha Deokbi were as opponents. If the two people had decided to keep Queen Po in check, it would not have been easy for Queen Po to protect her dignity.
The head maid, Anrim, who was listening to those complaints from behind, felt it the most.
However, my master, who was able to defend against all the attacks during that time, was not an average person.
‘Rather, it feels like Po Hyeonbi’s capabilities are increasing day by day because of the checks from those two people.’
It is said that humans grow in times of crisis.
I don’t know if Queen Ingwi and Queen Ha Deok knew about it, but Queen Po had suddenly become grander as the owner of Hyeonmu Palace.
They may be shocked to hear this, but it was clear that Queen In and Queen Ha Deok were the most likely contributors.
“anyway…! “If you’ve gritted your teeth and held on for this long, it might be time for you two to give up…!”
“okay. “Anyway, I’m surprised that Lady Jin said there is no particular movement.”
“That’s true too… I thought Lady Jin would be the most active… but I heard she’s stuck in the Blue Dragon Palace and doesn’t come out often.”
Jin Suk-bi is a mysterious character who seems to escape from the world and play in isolation.
Po Hyeon-bi herself was really scared as to how she would keep Po Hyeon-bi in check… but there wasn’t much of a reaction than expected.
Considering that he said he had no intention of joining the Princess of Cheondo the last time he visited the Blue Dragon Palace, he may have really given up.
The opportunity to have Seol Taepyeong under his command may be mouth-watering, but… well, that much may have been a concession.
Po Xuanfei breathed a sigh of relief. There is no way to know how much trouble it would have taken if Jin Sook-bi had turned into an enemy.
“Anyway, as long as there is nothing unusual… there won’t be a big problem!”
Po Hyeon-bi showed off her fresh smile and patted Seol Tae-pyeong’s chest as if telling him to trust her.
can do! can do!
With that promise, Po Hyeon-bi shouted cheerfully.
However, the truly powerful enemy arrives when one is most unguarded.
The next morning. There was a really ridiculous rumor going around around the concubine.
It was a story that Queen Jin Cheongrang succeeded in manifesting the power of the Heavenly Dragon.
It’s been 27 days since I locked myself in the inner room of the Blue Dragon Palace and focused solely on self-discipline.
Even so, is it possible to manifest the power of the Heavenly Dragon, which is said to be difficult to manifest without the innate abilities and qualities given by heaven, in a corner of the room, in just about a month, without anyone’s teachings?
Originally, the energy of the Heavenly Dragon was a power that could not be easily manifested even if the Princess of Heaven, who received national support, trained for several years.
However, the senses bestowed by heaven and the tenacity of mind for unknown reasons made such an unbelievable miracle possible.
Cheongryong Palace, the home of young immortals.
A girl was hiding her head in the corner of the living room, covering her lower body with her sleeves. A bluish energy descends and settles around the eyes.
It was an unprecedented miracle in the history of Cheongdo Palace.
There are degrees of cruelty in people.
The maids had no way of knowing what was making this girl so stubborn.
…Actually, it was strange to know that.
Battle of Vice General (1)
It was the first time that Seol Taepyeong saw a person fainting while standing.
When Queen Jin came to the party meeting and saw her wielding the power of a heavenly dragon, not only the high-ranking officials of the party, but also the civil servants and even Baek Taoist An Cheon, who was an advisor, could not help but gape.
Because I didn’t understand the situation that was happening in front of me, I didn’t know how to react, even if only for a moment. It was so outrageous that I almost fainted.
Since ancient times, what is the energy of the Heavenly Dragon?
It is a mysterious energy that the Princess of Cheondo, who is filled with noble energy while bathing in the clear water of Cheonryongchae and Cheonokjeong, can manage to a small extent when she spends days and days meditating and communicating with heaven.
In order to manifest that power, the maids of Cheonryongchae assisted Princess Cheondo day and night, and in order to control and develop that energy, Cheonryongchae was built in the center of the concubine, which was full of negative energy.
The manifestation of that power, which overturned all previous prerequisites, caused a stir at the party meeting where Po Hyeon-bi was actually nominated as the next Princess of Cheondo.
“I knew that Lady Jin was good at Taoist arts and sensitive to the energy of the sky, but I had no idea that she had become this outstanding.”
“Certainly… it would make sense for the person who best handles the Heavenly Dragon’s energy to sit in the position of Princess of Heaven.”
“Haona…”
Seol Tae-pyeong, who was sitting in the deputy general’s seat and listening to the party meeting, was dumbfounded and just watched the situation.
I wanted to run to the active room right away and ask Yeonri, who was mopping the floor.
Was it also a predestined future for Jin Sook-bi’s power to manifest?
If so, why didn’t you tell me earlier? If not, what should I do now?
“…”
“…”
There was an awkward silence in the conference room of party officials.
Everyone has similar thoughts in their heads, but they can’t bring themselves to say them out loud.
Since Po Hyeon-bi had already been tacitly designated as the next Princess of Cheondo for a long time, officials inside and outside the palace were reorganized around her.
Send artifacts and gifts to Hyeonmu Palace, promise her various positions or maintain the system, and win her favor…
If the power structure centered around Xuanwu Palace is completely overturned at the end, the entire system will have to be reorganized around Queen Jin.
That means that the political scene at Cheongdo Palace is once again entering an unknown world.
This means that the behind-the-scenes struggle that has been going on for the past two months must be waged again… Some of the party officials who had finally emerged victors could not help but be unhappy with the current situation.
But… who in the world could have predicted this?
The power of the Heavenly Dragon, locked in a corner of the Blue Dragon Palace, was unleashed alone without anyone’s help.
At this level, it was almost like a wedge had been driven in, so the party superiors had to move quickly.
It seemed like everyone wanted to run out quickly after this party meeting.
Political battles often became a battle of speed.
The person who was the first to win Queen Jin’s favor had a high chance of becoming the real power with a connection to the owner of Cheonryongchae for the time being.
*
After the party meeting ended, there were many people who wanted to visit the Cheongryong Palace, but the first person to step through the main gate was Deputy General Seol Taepyeong.
“Have you been doing well so far, Lady Jin?”
“Yes, yes. Welcome. Now, let’s come in and talk.”
The Cheongryong Palace building, with its neatly laid bluish tiles, looks magical just by looking at it.
At one time, Baekseon Palace, where Baekseon Lee Cheol-woon resided, was the most mysterious place in the palace, but after his death, the Cheongryong Palace seemed to have become the most mysterious place.
Not only among the eunuchs of the outer palace, but also among the maids who worked directly in the harem, Cheongryong Palace was perceived as a space where some mysterious monk lived.
It may be because of Jin Suk-bi’s piloting skills, which are improving day by day.
Anyway, Queen Jin, the owner of the Blue Dragon Palace, despite her young age, gave off a half-mystical aura and was revered by people inside and outside the palace.
His talent for sailing may have played a part, but it was also because he maintained a reserved and quiet appearance, covering his face with the sleeves of his old-fashioned clothes wherever he went.
He never said more than necessary in any public place, and although he spoke quietly using implicit vocabulary, he always had the ability to get to the point.
Reticence.
That heavy temperament further enhanced her mysterious aura.
……
“Now that you think about it, it’s been a while. I think it was when he came to me and offered me a drink after the uproar over the Wolgui incident… This is the first time we’ve seen each other like this since then. Yes, you may have been very busy during the Hyeongwoljang period, but you will be even busier now that you have risen to the position of deputy general. It’s understandable that we don’t see each other often. First, sit down there. Hoein! At that time, please bring me Sangwolcha (霜月茶) brought in from Inseongguk. I hope it suits your taste. This is a car that even the Queen was impressed by, and since General Busu personally brought it to the Blue Dragon Palace, he should show this level of respect. Yes, from the looks of it, there has been a lot of commotion at home and abroad recently, and there is a possibility that I may come to Tianlongchae, so I came to say hello… You must be very busy, so I am grateful for your concern.”
“…that’s… what I heard…”
“Yes, I heard that there is a rumor going around that I have manifested the power of the Heavenly Dragon. It must have been a big surprise for you, and I was also very surprised. There was no particular purpose, I was just working hard to practice Doseonjutsu as usual, and this kind of power came down to me… Maybe I am truly a blessed person. Without any other purpose, I just practiced the art of Doseon. Really, I had no other purpose… I really did…”
“It’s definitely been a while since I saw Lady Jin…”
“It’s been a while since I last saw you, but nothing much has changed, right? I feel the same way when I look at you. Although you became a deputy general and wore a more flashy military uniform, every time I see you, it often feels like you are no different from when you were an apprentice warrior. Well, in a way, not much time had passed. Starting from being an apprentice warrior to becoming a deputy general seems like a very long time, but you rose in the world particularly quickly… I knew that your skills were magnificent, but I never thought you would rise so quickly. You did it. Now that I have become a deputy general and even served as an assistant to the Princess of Cheondo, it might be a good idea to aim for the position of general when I get older. Congratulations on your future path. Now, first of all, try a bite of Sangwolcha. Even if you don’t know much about tea ceremony, you don’t need to be too nervous. I am not the type of person to criticize a non-official man for such a personal tea ceremony. I’ll ask you to bring some good refreshments, so try them once, and if you like them, I’ll tell you to keep some for when you return to the active room. How do you feel? Does it taste good? If you think it’s a bit bitter, I’ll give you some red snow tea. Or, there are some other teas, and it would be nice to bring out a tea that I have never tried before and share my opinions… So, what do you think? Does it fit your mouth?”
“I haven’t tried drinking it yet…”
“Oh, I see. “I guess I was a little anxious.”
It was truly impressive to see Lady Jin looking at Seol Taepyeong with her head sticking out almost through her sleeve, with her crown buried in her sleeve.
If it had ears and a tail, it would flutter endlessly, but fortunately, human ears do not flutter and it does not have a tail.
It was indeed the first time in a long time that Seol Taepyeong was visiting the Blue Dragon Palace in person, so he seemed excited, and the reason he talked more than usual was probably because the other person’s rank had been raised to deputy general.
When Seol Taepyeong was an apprentice warrior, even talking carelessly was disloyal.
During the days of Tongseokjang and Hyeongwoljang, I was unable to get to know them privately because I was also working as an internal inspector.
However, he has risen to the high position of deputy general, and is not the person who will serve as an assistant to the Princess of Cheondo in the future…
Finally, the level is somewhat consistent.
Even though Queen Dowager Jin is still much higher in the palace protocol hierarchy, it has become a relationship where it is okay to at least exchange some personal conversations…!
For Queen Jin, it was an opportunity to unravel the bundle of stories she had been holding back.
Even the wisest young immortals in the world cannot be free from the pods that stick in their eyes.
Compared to the quiet impression he usually maintains, he is not even aware that he has become too talkative now.
Although he is by no means a person who is incapable of such basic self-objectification, he cannot control his excitement as he has a private meeting with Seol Tae-pyeong, who comes almost once a season.
How does the tea taste? How does the tea taste? How does the tea taste? How does the tea taste?
Speak quickly. Speak quickly. Speak quickly. Speak quickly.
The appearance of Jin Sookbi, waving her tail and shooting stars with her eyes. He seemed to be urging me to speak quickly, as the next car would have to be decided depending on the answer.
‘…’
That sight made Seol Taepyeong have no choice but to swallow dry saliva.
Seol Taepyeong’s head was spinning while he was sipping the tea, which definitely tasted like a luxury product.
From the beginning, I came here with the light idea of saying hello to Queen Jin before returning to the active room.
Just as you offered your greetings in advance to Queen Po, it is actually basic courtesy to visit and offer your greetings in advance to a person who has the potential to become the Princess of Cheondo.

At the same time, there was also an intention to take a look at Queen Jin’s condition.
However, I couldn’t help but be taken aback because I didn’t know they would welcome me this much.
By any chance, if Jin Sook-bi becomes the Princess of Cheondo, will she always maintain this level of energy?
Before the matter of life and death, can you handle this?
I feel like a delicate girl being attacked by a large energetic dog.
In reality, Seol Taepyeong was a sturdy man and Jin Sukbi was a young girl… but their social status was the complete opposite.
And power within this palace is usually determined by social status.
Queen Jin’s sparkling eyes seem to be telling Seol Taepyeong.
Drink tea, eat refreshments, chat, report on the current situation, take a walk in the garden, eat some Chinese food, watch the maids at work, and take a look at the facilities of Cheongryong Palace. Don’t you just go before sunset? .
What can you do if I tell you that I will feed you and make you sit down?
Seol Taepyeong can’t do anything. nothing.
A miraculous swordsman who cut down thousands of ghosts in one night and even cut off the head of a demon that was no different from disaster with a single sword.
I was defeated miserably by a girl who weighed half my weight.
“Mistress Jin.”
However, it is said that even if the sky falls, there is a hole that will emerge.
At a time when Seol Taepyeong was sweating profusely, the head maid opened the paper door and came in to report.
“Now, Sangseogwan Nari is at Cheongryong Palace. “He wants to chat for a moment.”
Sangseogwan Inseonrok!
Seol Taepyeong’s ears perked up.
It is the name of the head of the Jeongseon family, and in fact the highest ranking official at Cheongdo Palace.
Yes. At this time, when Queen Jin’s power was being revealed, the person who moved the fastest was the Sangseogwan.
As expected, political acumen is keen. By taking advantage of her high status, she is trying to lay the line in advance for Lady Jin, who has been revealed to have the potential to become the Princess of Cheondo in the future.
There are very few people who can enter the Blue Dragon Palace so easily without any prior procedures, unless they are one of the top three Tang officials.
Even the second-rank officials in each department, when they hear that a senior secretary has been appointed, don’t rush out and greet each other at right angles.
No matter how powerful he is as the owner of the Blue Dragon Palace and the next Princess of Cheondo, he can’t just ignore Sangseogwan at his doorstep…!
“Are you saying this directly from the Chief Secretary? “Wow, that’s a big deal…”
Seol Taepyeong quickly accepted the piece. This was an opportunity.
