Surviving the Romance Fantasy - Surviving the Romance Fantasy chapter 109

– ‘If this continues, my life may be in danger.’

Xuanbei Po, who was sitting on the floor of Xuanmu Palace and looking up blankly at the night sky, was lost in thought.

Lately, I’ve been busy spending my days day after day under the control of Queen In and Queen Ha Deok.

Although I said that I would try my best for my best friend, Seol Taepyeong, it was not easy for Po Hyeon-bi, a girl from a commoner background, to do anything against the crown princes who said they were longing for her.

In the end… the war of nerves between the crown princes trying to take over Seoltaepyeong will become more confusing.

‘…I’ve done enough, Taepyeong. It’s impossible to go any further than this…’

I elegantly adjusted the collar of my palace uniform spread across the floor and took a sip of the tea served by the head maid.

The current secretariat saturation stage has done everything it can over the past two months. Even though the situation was like this, Seoltaepyeong acknowledged Hyeonbi Po’s efforts because she had exhausted herself to the point of falling down.

I tried my best, but if it doesn’t work, it doesn’t work.

The situation was completely out of Po Xianbei’s hands.

The Jeongseon family will start planning in earnest and try to take away the Vice General, Inbong Ha-ga will try to use her strong relationship with the Vice General to capture him, and Jin Sook-bi will not know anything about such things and will unconditionally drag Seol Taepyeong to Cheonryongchae. something to do.

In the midst of this concubine, where the political situation is becoming more and more chaotic, Po Hyeon-bi, who has already done everything she can, is now just an observer of the situation.

No matter what I try, I can’t do it.

What can you do against queen concubines, queens deok, and queen concubines? They are the ones at the top of this Cheongdo Palace.

So… I guess I have no choice but to wish Seol Taepyeong good luck…

– ‘Po Hyeonbi. That’s it. it’s okay. It is no good for Lady Po to suffer further because of me.’

The image of Seol Taepyeong comforting Queen Po as she left Hyeonmu Palace seemed to flash before my eyes.

“…”

Really… have you done everything you can?

Such thoughts were blooming from within my heart.

The next morning, various news was coming and going in the office of the deputy general at the Hwaengbang government office.

News that numerous plans are being made to snatch away General Vice-President, centering on the approval of Jeongseon.

News that Seonbong Haga is trying to host several events to maintain a stronger relationship with Vice General.

There was even news that Lady Jin of the Blue Dragon Palace had submitted a suggestion to the Emperor to ascend to the position of Princess of Cheondo as quickly as possible.

Deputy General Seol Tae-pyeong is the person standing at the center of a situation that becomes more and more confusing as time goes by. He became distraught from the dizzying news his lieutenants asked him.

In this situation of typhoon-like chaos, even the Deputy General himself could not know which force would ultimately take over the Deputy General.

I feel like I’m on a sailing ship with no rudder. I don’t even know where my destination is anymore.

Where is this ship headed….

– Grumble

And finally… Yeon-ri, the maid who had not been able to meet because she was busy working on big projects with all kinds of high-ranking officials, entered the office.

It was like seeing each other for the first time in two days.

Battle of Vice General (3)

Working as a byeolseon maid in the Crown Prince’s palace is truly a good thing.

Perhaps because she is looked up to by many people and has the support of the crown prince, she does not experience any inconveniences while working, and compared to the time when she was a maid at Tianlongchae, her personal time is considerably guaranteed.

Having more responsibilities was a bit of a headache, but it wasn’t a big drawback for Seolran, who was always confident.

In the end… it got to the point where I wondered if I would work in the crown prince’s palace until the day I left the palace.

‘It was very difficult when I was at Tianlongchae.’

After finishing her day’s work, Seolran sat down on the floor behind the crown prince’s womb for a moment to catch her breath.

“Thank you for your hard work today, Lady Starseon!”

“Starmaid! “Would you like some tea?”

“Uhm… yes, please.”

Since Seolran had always treated others well, she was not very comfortable in this situation where so many maids were watching her.

Still, they say that a position makes a person, and as I worked there for a long time, there seemed to be some things I got used to.

I thought it would be nice to have a smooth routine like this forever, but Cheongdo-guk was not such a comfortable place.

– ‘There was competition among the owners of the four palaces to become the next Princess of Cheondo.’

– ‘Prince Hyeonwon, who is stuck in the crown prince’s womb and has no intention of coming out, seems to have no intention of mediating between them.’

– ‘In the end, it seems most likely that Queen Jin will manifest the power of the Heavenly Dragon and take the position of Princess of Heaven.’

– ‘Deputy General Seol Tae-pyeong has been appointed as the assistant to the next Princess Cheondo.’

Once you reach this level, the big decisions of your superiors will be relayed to you.

And the information that has been passed down in recent years is unusual.

I felt very uneasy because the name of my younger brother, whom I cared for the most, was often mixed up.

“…”

Seolran sat on the floor and thought silently for a moment.

Looking at the news that has come in recently, Queen Jin’s movements are unusual.

If she really takes the position of Princess Cheondo, her younger sister, Seol Taepyeong, will act under her command and assist her.

What does that mean…

In the first place… how could Suk-bi, who had no intention of being in power, be so obsessed with the position of Princess Cheondo to such an unnatural degree…

It felt like the scattered information was coming together, as if it were falling into one piece.

Yes.

Seolran, who had been watching Seoltaepyeong closely since the days of Baekseon Palace… After listening to this story, it was not difficult to come to a conclusion.

The owner of Cheongryong Palace, Queen Jin Cheongrang.

The Sorang who always walked around the palace grounds like a hermit, with his sleeves hanging down, with eyes filled with mystery as if he couldn’t tell what was going on.

The reason why she wants to become Princess Cheondo.

‘Taepyeong… is dangerous…’

Byeolsun maid Seolran looked up at the tiled roof of the crown prince’s palace with a stern face.

Jin Cheong-rang, his concubine who will become the owner of Cheonryongchae, and Seol Tae-pyeong, the deputy general who will work under him.

The moment the composition was drawn, Seolran could instantly sense that her younger brother was in danger.

If Jin Suk-bi were to use her authority and do anything, how far would she be able to resist the orders of Princess Cheondo?

There is a great need for help from those who understand this whole situation.

However, how many people in Cheonryongchae can accurately guess what Queen Jin’s heart is filled with in that flower garden? Probably not a single one.

“…”

If you look around with a stern expression, you will see that this is the Crown Prince’s Palace where Prince Hyeonwon resides.

Working at Cheonryongchae is a thing of the past.

I am a person bound to this royal womb.

“Everything seems to be going according to plan!”

As soon as she entered the office, Yeon-ri said this with a bright smile on her face.

The current situation is that the Crown Princess of the Four Great Palaces is anxious because she cannot eat me. When Yeonri said that with the brightest smile in the world, I couldn’t help but open my half-moon eyes.

“Taepyeong… What should you do if you look at people like that? No matter how much it hurts…”

“What are you talking about, going according to plan?”

“I heard the news from the main palace. He already seemed to be busy dealing with the crown princes and meeting dignitaries. So far, everything goes according to plan…!”

“Please, if you’re going to do something, can you tell me in advance?”

“Wait, wait… This time, there was a truly unspeakable situation.”

When I stood up, glaring at me as if I was going to eat her, Yeon-ri, unable to withstand the deadly attack, waved her arms and said.

“Sukbi Jin’s becoming the Princess of Cheondo is partly due to my influence. “I sent her a gift before my abdication so that she could receive the energy of the Heavenly Dragon.”

“what?”

Come to think of it, I had already heard this story.

As an internal examiner, I had definitely heard about the wooden box that arrived from Cheonryongchae before Princess Ahyeon was dethroned… but I passed it on, thinking it was a ceremonial gift.

“You can’t believe it… The reason Queen Jin opened her eyes to the power of the Heavenly Dragon…”

“I gave you as a gift an incense burner filled with dragon incense, which is used to inhale energy at Cheonryongchae. “It was probably a gift from the Princess of Cheondo, so it was probably placed in a visible place.”

“…”

“Normally, even if you get some help from Yonghyang, you won’t be able to awaken to the power of the Heavenly Dragon so easily. However, I thought that Queen Jin, who is good at handling this kind of energy, would soon become greedy for the power of the Heavenly Dragon.”

In short, Jin Sook-bi hinted at helping him handle that power.

Listening to the story, it seems as if Lady Jin was hoping to become the successor to Princess Cheondo.

The subject who said in front of me that he didn’t know who would become the Princess of Cheondo.

“Taepyeong, I can’t tell you in advance… Anyway, I also have a conscience, Taepyeong.”

“Conscience? “What conscience?”

“No… Well, in a way, this is an action to attract the Seol maid by using your hand.”

After hearing those words, I finally began to see Yeon-ri’s intentions.

It’s something I’ve been talking about ever since I was the Princess of Cheondo. He said he had to somehow bring Seolran back to Cheonryongchae.

“Once you become the royal maid of honor, there is no way Prince Hyeonwon will give you up as the maid of honor easily. So it is unrealistic to get her out through political maneuvering.”

“so?”

“You have to make Lady Seol herself come out of the Crown Prince’s womb. “By my own will.”

There are a lot of rumors inside and outside the palace that Queen Jin will ascend to the position of Princess of Cheondo.

And since there is a rumor going around that I, the deputy general, will be appointed as an assistant, Seolran will quickly realize that I am in danger when she hears this news.

What kind of person is Seolran?

This is the award for a bold female protagonist who takes action quickly when necessary.

“Once you make up your mind to come out of the crown prince’s womb, it is not difficult to put him in the Tianlongchae.”

“I am in a position to be favored by His Royal Highness Crown Prince Xuanyuan, so will they allow me to leave the palace so easily?”

“The method itself is easy. “It’s okay if it hurts.”

– ‘I’m making the Seol maid… suffer from fever.’

When Princess Ahyeon was a princess, she definitely said something like that.

Has it been roughly planned since then?

Of course, if you contract renal fever, which will almost certainly lead to death, you will not be able to work as a byeolseon maid in the Crown Prince’s womb.

“New fever?”

“huh. You’re quick-witted. To be precise, you just have to treat it as if you have a fever. That in itself is not difficult. There are quite a few techniques to make spots stand out. “The important thing is that the Seol maid must have the will to go out.”

Now I understand why Yeonri moved without telling me anything.

This is because it is closer to bringing down Seolran, who is already on her way to success.

Of course, it is a necessary process to be promoted to a higher position… that is, the position of Princess of Cheondo.

If you look at the results alone, you will become more successful… but in any case, openly participating in something that causes your sister to lose her status is bound to have a bitter and difficult aftertaste.

It was to some extent what I was feeling.

“More than anything else… I didn’t think Taepyeong would be very pleased with your actions that seemed to directly deceive the maid. “In the first place, it is important that the brother and sister of Hwayongseolga’s Seol family maintain a strong friendship.”

“…”

I rested my chin and quietly listened to Yeonri’s story.

Since it was clearly Yeon-ri’s plan, I was expecting there to be a screw missing somewhere…

Surprisingly… the back and forth of what is being said is correct.

…Is this really true?

“Of course, there is a blind spot in that Taepyeong has to fall under the person of interest that you are Queen Jin, but…”

When I thought about it again, it was just a slap in the face.

“Anyway, soon the maid will officially become the Princess of Cheondo. You just have to hold on until then. Taepyeong…!”

“…”

“You matched up well when I was the Princess of Heaven! “I was actually so scared on the inside every time they glared at me as if they were going to eat me if I did something wrong!”

Yeonri, that’s because you’re easygoing.

You shouldn’t say that…

“If Lady Jin is trying to do something to you by using her authority to pressure you… you can just use good communication skills and good manners to get away with it! Taepyeong, you’re good at that kind of thing~! “I’m not an apprentice warrior like I used to be, but now I’m a deputy general!”

Yeon-ri hummed and smiled in satisfaction.

Yes. The argument is that since I was the one who didn’t give up and said everything I wanted to say to Yeon-ri when I was the Princess of Cheondo, I can easily protect my chastity(?) even if Jin Sook-bi comes to that position.

Yeonri.

I’ll say it again, it was only possible because of you.

It’s too much to even say that, so let’s be patient.

…….

….

“Just like when I was the Princess of Cheondo, I will grab Lady Jin. Taepyeong. I know because I experienced it myself. Taepyeong, you are not an easy man. “He is someone who can easily control Jin Suk-bi!”

“Yeonri. “That was only possible because of you.”

“…”

“…”

After hearing those words, Yeon-ri closed her mouth for a moment, then walked up to my desk, put her arms up, and sniffled.

“No matter what, that’s too harsh, Taepyeong!!!!!”

“It’s true, but what should I do…!!”

I shook my head while pressing my temples.

Anyway, I knew the intention was to bring Seolran, who was under the protection of the crown prince, to Cheonryongchae. Ultimately, it’s something that had to be done one way or another at some point.

“No… the plan was to select a temporary Princess of Heavenly Capital from the beginning, but at this point, it seems that it has reached a point where it wouldn’t be strange if Lady Jin officially took the position of Princess of Heavenly Island. If you handle the power of the Heavenly Dragon so skillfully, how can Sister Lan have a chance to sneak in? “Isn’t it better to shake hands?”

“That’s not true.”

Yeonri lowered her hand from the table and spoke seriously.

From Noble mtl dot com

“They say she is Queen Jin, who is good at manipulating energy, but she will have no choice but to give up in front of Princess Seol, who has been awakened by her power.”

“…”

“Princess Seolran of Cheondo is the most powerful shaman of the Heavenly Dragon who has reached a level that no one has ever reached in the history of this country. Even Sukbi Jin, who was born with talent that was like a gift from heaven… has no choice but to take a step back.”

Queen Jin Cheong-rang is by no means an easy person.

He is a rare genius who was abandoned by the immortals who trained at Seonsan when he was still young, saying he had nothing more to teach.

Even though she probably didn’t know that fact, Yeonri spoke in a confident tone.

It is not a guess, but rather a statement of fact that has already been seen.

The image of Princess Seol sitting in the pavilion of Cheonokjeong and quietly putting down her teacup. It was as if it was flashing before my eyes.

“The history of Cheonryongchae is long, but there has never been a princess of higher caliber than Princess Seolran before, and there will never be one after that.”

“…”

“Seolran is that kind of person.”

Princess Seolran of Cheondo.

Haven’t we already confirmed several times that she is a person born with an extraordinary temperament? In the first place, the story of Heavenly Dragon Love Story is like her solo stage.

“So… for now, let’s focus on successfully landing her in the Tianlongchae. “Everything else is secondary.”

“okay. “That in itself is correct.”

“huh. Even if you want to come out of the crown prince’s womb, you probably won’t be able to do so easily. All we have to do is to help Lady Seol come out of the Crown Prince’s womb.”

So… the story with Yeonri came to a conclusion.

All you have to do is create a situation so that the Seol maid can escape from the Crown Prince’s womb.

That in itself is true, so I thought I should start the preparation process quickly.

*

“I came out of the crown prince’s womb, Taepyeong.”

And the next morning.

Seolran came out with a bunch of bundles and entered the active room. I don’t know what was hanging on that tiny body, but it was buried under the luggage it was carrying.

“…”

“…”

Seol Tae-pyeong and Yeon-ri, who welcomed Seol-ran at their home, were stunned with their mouths wide open.

It is said that every little action of an extraordinary person is different…

Even so, there was a degree to which decisions were made quickly.
