Surviving the Romance Fantasy - Surviving the Romance Fantasy chapter 134
– ‘Where could there be a person like Lady In that would treat her so coldly…? .’
– ‘Shh… I can hear you… .’
Outside the courtyard of Hoseon Palace, the maids could be heard whispering.
Hyeondang, who was kneeling behind Queen In,’s brows narrowed.
Hyeondang rolled up her sleeves and stood up to condemn the maids who were making such absurd remarks, but Queen In shook her head and stopped them.
“Your Majesty… .”
“… .”
Lady In Ha-yeon sat in front of the paper gate of Hoseon Palace for over an hour, holding the Taeseong sword she brought as a gift.
Although the crown princess was supposed to be closer to Prince Hyeonwon than anyone else, the prince did not even give her a glance and made her sit outside in the cold.
It is the beginning of winter.
The cold was rising to the point where the blood was draining from the tips of her fingernails, but In Guifei continued to sit still.
As the owner of the four palaces, there is no meaning to existence if you cannot assist the crown prince.
The reason she was able to sit in the position of queen is also to fulfill her duty.
Since she comes from the Jeongseon family and has a stronger will than anyone else, there is no way she would be offended by such a cold response.
Hyeondang knows better than anyone else how strong-hearted Lady In Ha-yeon is.
In Ha-yeon, brave yet gentle, confident yet graceful, is the master he must serve for the rest of his life.
However, the current In Ha-yeon… It looked as unstable as a branch swaying in the wind.
“Your Majesty. “Let’s just have Suzakugung today.”
“… .”
Was it a big shock to be shut out at the door by Crown Prince Hyeonwon?
No, it wouldn’t have been like that.
This woman, who serves as her own master, is not so weak that her heart is broken by just such an ordeal.
Even in the face of scenes more shocking and terrifying than this, the spark of vitality that burns those eyes has never been lost.
This situation in which Crown Prince Xuanyuan attacked the enemy was nothing more than an opportunity.
The seeds of anxiety remaining deep in her heart lie elsewhere.
Lady In, who was kneeling in front of the paper gate and putting down her sword, gently closed her eyes.
The pupil trembles once. The agitation was wracking his heart.
– ‘That may be a short thought. ‘His Royal Highness.’
– ‘Not all people from the Jeongseon clan have the same size of bowl. Since a person’s background does not completely represent the person, a person must be judged as a person.’
– ‘Queen In Ha-yeon is a worthy woman who has not lost her nobility despite her noble position. Having worked as an internal medical examiner for a long time, I can tell you this with certainty.’
Seoltaepyeong’s mantra addressed to the crown prince from beyond the paper gate was stuck like a dagger in his heart.
Seol Tae-pyeong was the first to step forward and protect himself, the leader of the Jeongseon family, whom Seol Tae-pyeong should blame more than anyone else.
Lady In Ha-yeon was already old enough to know about politics.
There was not a single reason for Seol Taepyeong to force himself to step forward and protect Lady In in front of the crown prince who trusted him.
Rather, it was nothing more than a handshake from a political point of view, which might get some hate from the crown prince.
Seol Tae-pyeong is also a person who already knows enough about the insidious politics of Cheongdo Palace.
Even though he knew better than anyone else that his words and actions were of no help in self-preservation, he continued to protect Ingwibi until the end.
Why did you do that?
Because I thought it was right.
That man is a person who follows the path he believes is right more honestly than anyone else.
However, he is not a person who does not know the bitter taste of complex reality.
Even though he knows this, he is a person who moves forward through a thorny path like an iron horn.
What does it mean to be just?
I now know the insidious secrets behind the Jeongseon family, which I have lived my whole life believing was justice.
It is impossible to live as an untainted, pure, and noble masterpiece for the rest of your life.
I knew that one day I would have to get my hands in muddy water.
I felt like the beliefs I had believed in my whole life were starting to crack.
A feeling of skepticism comes over the life I lived with so much pride in being the leader of the Jeongseon family.
I feel disillusioned with the appearance of In Seon-rok, the chief inspector, who ran faster than anyone else to take advantage of Seol Tae-pyeong’s weakness.
He goes around saying he is more righteous than anyone else, but deplores the hypocritical political situation of Jeongseon Inga more than anyone else.
Once you accept the undeniable truth that you are also a person of the Jeongseon family, and that you were able to rise to this level thanks to that.
Suddenly, I look up and see a tightly closed paper door.
If you look behind you, what you see in the distance is Jujak Palace.
You can see the back road leading to the main house of the Jeongseon family, and you can also see the roads leading to the streets of the Imperial Capital at a glance.
There are many roads.
However, I don’t know which way to go.
Even Jeongseon In-ga feels like a stranger.
Even the magnificent Jujak Palace feels like a fake prison.
Even Crown Prince Hyeonwon has no intention of opening that tightly closed paper door.
There was no one who could truly understand him.
I have lived in this palace for so long, but there is no one who can embrace my feelings.
I’ve stayed here for several nights, and there isn’t even a single place where I feel comfortable.
What does all this mean in the first place?
“Hyeondang.”
Queen In quietly called her chief maid in a low voice.
Hyeondang, who was bowing his head behind him, came closer and answered.
“For a moment… “I’m frustrated, so could you please take care of this for me?”
“yes… ?”
After saying that, Queen In put down the Taeseong sword she had brought with her and carefully untied the Taegum hairpin from the back of her head and placed it on Hyeondang’s hand.
“this… Dear Queen… .”
The queen’s red hair, which had been tied up neatly, spread out and came down. The hanging hair looked like a curtain hiding his heart.
He lowers his palace robe and only then raises his head a little.
As soon as Hyeondang made eye contact with his master, he was startled.
Those eyes that burned red in any crisis.
The most authoritative crown princess, who smiled even in front of a procession of ghosts and never lost her relaxed demeanor in the face of any political upheaval.
Her eyes seemed empty and had lost their shine.
Hyeondang seemed to sense a huge emptiness blooming in his heart and answered with difficulty, lowering his head.
“Well, I don’t want to keep it… “This Taegeum hairpin is a very precious item.”
“Okay.”
“Your wife.”
“For a moment… I want to get some wind… .”
After getting rid of all the maids, Lady In disappeared behind Hoseon Palace alone.
I left the Taeseong sword I had brought with me, and the Taegeum hairpin was left in the hand of the head maid…
Queen In quietly disappeared into the shadows behind Hoseon Palace.
This is a queen who has walked the path her entire life.
There has never been a single deviation, and he is adamant about rules and regulations and has never broken a single personal law.
So, I thought this incident would end soon, but… .
Before even one hour had passed, I was able to notice Hyeondang, the chief maid of the Jujak Palace.
A message from Queen In that she would visit the backyard of Hoseon Palace for a while.
However, the woman who was supposed to be in the backyard of Hoseon Palace had disappeared.
“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think Prince Hyeonwon is a reverse demon.”
“… okay? “Is it okay to come to that conclusion so easily?”
“too… “Prince Hyeonwon from ‘As I Know It.’”
As soon as I returned home from the active room, I looked for Yeonri.
Yeon-ri was lost in thought while sweeping the yard, and as soon as I arrived, she asked me what happened and urged me to answer quickly.
After telling her to bring me a cup of tea, I sat down on the floor with Yeonri and talked.
“… “Isn’t that too weak of a basis?”
“no… Not really… .”
The Prince Hyeonwon ‘I know’ is not talking about the current Prince Hyeonwon.
This is the appearance of Crown Prince Hyeonwon as seen in ‘Heavenly Dragon Love Story’.
The reason Prince Hyeonwon completely falls in love with Seolran in Love Story of the Heavenly Dragon is because she literally restored color to his eyes.
Prince Hyeonwon was slowly sinking into darkness. The scene where he was dragged by the arm and climbed onto the tiled roof of the Prince’s Palace, conveying the beauty of the world.
And the crown prince who lived with that scene in his heart for the rest of his life.
Yes, that is the Prince Hyeonwon I knew.
This is Prince Hyeonwon from ‘Heavenly Dragon Love Story’.
──And there is no way that Yeokdeunggwi would know about the existence of ‘Heavenly Dragon Love Story’.
“No matter how smart Yeokdeunggwi is, he cannot know the contents of Heavenly Dragon Love Story.”
Yeonri pointed out two methodologies for finding reverse return.
He must be a person who is aware of the fact that this world is reincarnated.
The person must be acting differently as if the person has suddenly changed.
Among them, the latter methodology has a slightly deeper meaning to me.
This is because we can compare them with the appearances we saw in Heavenly Dragon Love Story.
No matter how much of a genius he is at performing, there is no way he can move according to the contents in it without even knowing the existence of Heavenly Dragon Love Story.
This means that if a character shows movements that match the contents of Heavenly Dragon Love Story, the probability that it is not a reverse return increases exponentially.
Simple external movements or judgments can coincide or be imitated, but it will not be possible to imitate all internal values as the crown prince did this time.
Because those are things that cannot be known unless you are truly involved.
If we eliminate them using the elimination method, we will be able to exclude several people from the list of suspects among those of the third rank or higher.
“okay… Taepyeong, if you do that… I guess it’s something like that… Umm… .”
Yeon-ri crossed her arms and had a hard time convincing herself.
Still, he asked me while looking at my eyes to see if I still felt anxious.
“then… It would be a good idea to check from above before heading down. Starting with Emperor Yunseong… .”
“I think the probability that he is not the Emperor of the Clouds is quite high… .”
If he was such an influential person, he would have felt uncomfortable about even the smallest details.
However, Emperor Yunsheng has never once caused a sense of discomfort over the past many years.
This is because he is a person who completely followed the flow I knew.
However, there was a feeling that the basis for that alone was weak.
“still… It would be right to beat on the stone bridge before crossing it. As I said, external movements can be easily imitated.”
If you can find the reverse ghost early, you will be able to catch and kill it before it resurrects without unnecessary sacrifice.
The story is that this will be the starting point to end all these ordeals.
“In that respect… .”
“nice… We’re in big trouble… ! Deputy head… No, my inspector Na-ri… !”
At that time, a maid ran in from the entrance of the living room’s home. I wanted to start the conversation in earnest, but I was interrupted like this… .
It’s quite late. Anyway, it didn’t seem normal for someone to rush in like that at a time like this.
“What’s going on?”
“My lord, the lady of the royal palace… “Your whereabouts are unknown.”
“what… ?”
The news that no one else, but the owner of Suzaku Palace has disappeared.
As an internal examiner who protects the concubine, it was something he could never do quietly.
The structure of the posterior arch is located in the palm of the hand. Because I have lived here for half my life.
When news of Queen In’s disappearance began to spread in earnest, Queen In was already leisurely walking out onto the market streets of the capital.
How was it possible to escape so easily from this magnificently spacious Cheongdo Palace filled with soldiers?
From Noble mtl dot com
It is impossible to believe that someone like Queen In, who has lived a thorough life with discipline as the top priority, would disappear like this… Because no one in the palace expected it.
If it were Queen Po or Lady Jin, they would have tried to deal with it quickly without panicking even if a little trouble arose.
It’s not like it’s anyone else, it’s Gwibi who is deviating like this. It was an incident that made even the most hard-hearted ladies-in-waiting doubt their ears.
Therefore, when In-gwibi casually told him to get out of the way, all the soldiers did so.
She is not accompanied by many maids, is not wearing a golden hairpin, and has her hair down.
Unlike usual, it is an unusual appearance that does not feel majestic or intimidating.
Nevertheless, the soldiers listened to her command without any doubt and made way.
Because it’s Lady In Ha-yeon.
This is a woman who has been at the center of the rules of this Cheongdo Palace throughout her life and is like an example to everyone.
Anyway, their identity is clear, and even if they do something, there seems to be a reason for it.
It wasn’t easy to shake your head in front of him and doubt her.
The trust and authority he had built up over a lifetime had become poison.
“… … .”
The ecliptic late at night.
A street with no one passing by.
A girl who had lived her whole life as a hard worker was looking up at the sky, lost.
Looking up at the sky with blank eyes, there was only one large moon that seemed to be shining down on her miserable self.
What is right and what is wrong?
If you know what is right, can you do it? Like that guy?
The moon seemed to be asking her.
Surviving on Ropan Episode 134
Reverse Return Search (4)
It is not an ordinary incident for a country’s crown prince to go missing.
First of all, all those involved will be punished, and depending on the nature of the crime, it was a serious matter that could result in someone having their head ripped off.
The owner of the palace has disappeared from the palace, and the head of the maid must be reprimanded for what she was doing. All the soldiers who paved the way must be punished for their crimes, and the internal inspector who checks the morals and discipline of the concubines must also be reprimanded. cannot be avoided.
The nobler the position, the greater the influence it has on the surrounding subjects.
The position of the crown princess is such that even one deviation can make people around her run away.
I don’t know if a Pohyeonbi, born with the blessing of divine passion, would be able to deviate without being discovered by anyone, but if a Gwibi, who was born as an ordinary human being, disappears, it is bound to be noticed right away.
* * *
* * *
Many people will be harmed, and many people will be wronged.
There was no way Ingwibi didn’t know that.
This proves that the condition is so bad that it cannot be taken into account.
Seol Taepyeong became anxious for no reason.
“Consort Yin didn’t seem to be in good condition. It’s as if he’s being chased by something, or as if he’s growing anxiety in his heart… “You felt lost.”
“… .”
When I returned to the main palace in a hurry, Hyeondang, who had already gone through a lot of hardships, was giving testimony in a haggard manner.
It seemed that he had already been reprimanded by the dignitaries of the main palace and by the officials of the Internal Affairs Department.
Even though her master disappeared right under her nose, the head maid could do nothing and just accept the Taegeum hairpin.
Once this incident was over, it would probably be difficult to maintain the position of head maid.
“… That… .”
