Surviving the Romance Fantasy

The way his shoulders are shrugged is as if he has received a prize.

For the time being, I had to live with the majestic appearance of Lady Jin. Unless there was another opportunity, no matter what anyone said, Seol Taepyeong was a person under the command of his concubine Qin Cheongrang.

Queen Jin, who returned to Cheongryong Palace after having the happiest tea ceremony in the world, quickly looked at various situations inside and outside the palace and then headed to Cheonryongchae.

Even so, he had no choice but to be relatively negligent in the affairs of the Blue Dragon Palace, but since the head maid, Hoein, was such a sharp-minded person, there seemed to be nothing to worry about.

No matter what anyone says, the more important thing is to inspect Tianlongchae.

When I headed to Cheonryongchae with the assistance of numerous maids, Deputy General Seol Taepyeong came out to meet me from the main palace.

“Did you have a good day today?”

“Yes. “The weather is really nice.”

So, escorted by Seol Taepyeong and the maids, she heads to Cheonryongchae.

As I sat in the grand palanquin and watched the back of Seol Taepyeong running ahead of me, my heart pounded for no reason.

‘Gwi-in and Ha-deok-bi… Should I just stay like this… ?’

Although he proudly declared victory in front of the two people at the tea party, it didn’t seem like the two people would give up on being the deputy general so easily.

This is because the current deputy general, Seol Tae-pyeong, seemed to be a very valuable person, both politically and as a person.

Everyone wants to get their hands on an expensive sword, but once they get it, they do everything they can to protect it.

It is like those who have vested interests use their power to protect themselves. As long as the other crown concubines do not give up their hearts, I will have to somehow hold on to Seol Taepyeong, whom I have taken into my arms.

First of all, the surest way is to charm him.

If the relationship became one between a man and a woman rather than a relationship between a military and a subject, and you made him attached to you out of affection rather than loyalty, you would no longer have to worry about him being taken away by other crown princesses.

‘… .’

Inside the shaking palanquin, Princess Jin Cheongrang was deeply troubled.

It is time to become more self-objective.

I wasn’t sure how attractive Jin Cheongrang was as a woman.

She doesn’t have the trustworthy generosity and physical charm of Queen In, and… I’m not as shrewd as Ha Deokbi… People themselves are not comfortable like Po Hyeon-bi.

The only competitive advantage I have as a person is that I am better at Taoist skills and energy.

… The most certain way is to simply enchant Seoltaepyeong with the art of delusion.

‘… There is no benefit to me by doing something like that… .’

A person of Seol Taepyeong’s level is not easily caught in the art of deception.

When Jin Sook-bi was sick as a child, she once cast a charm on him, but he came to his senses even by chewing his own tongue and stabbing himself with a sword.

Of course, Qin Qingrang was also a person skilled in magic, so if she did her best, she could try to charm him, but even if she tried to win his heart by lying, it would only be empty, and it was obvious that she would despise him when he came to his senses.

It is best to avoid doing anything that would be despised by Seol Taepyeong.

However, I am not sure whether I can be liked by him as a woman, and I feel uncomfortable because I feel like I am doing something mean to him by using my authority to suppress her.

So what’s left… I guess it’s really just a matter of liking him as a person.

‘what… What should I say… I don’t know how to lead the conversation… !’

really… Even if I give it to you, you can’t eat it… ! Jin Cheongrang!

Queen Dowager Jin was so pitiful that she felt like crying, but it was clear that she was in a very advantageous position compared to the other crown concubines.

It seemed like it would take quite a long time to control Seol Taepyeong with the desperate speaking skills he used to practice face-to-face training in the corner of the Blue Dragon Palace.

‘My back hurts.’

Seol Tae-pyeong, who was leading the guards of the Princess of Cheondo, was in a cold sweat as he received the hot gaze.

Without even knowing his thoughts, Jin Cheongrang was preparing a deadly weapon to capture Seol Taiping.

“A hundred ghosts will appear.”

It was around the time when Ilgwi’s wounds were barely healing.

I have to manage the active room, check the atmosphere of the sealing and sealing of the royal family, do the work of the internal examiner, must not neglect training as a military officer, and even look after the Cheonryongchae matter. From my perspective, I have another task on my shoulders. It felt like I had come up.

“… .”

“don’t worry. It’s not a monster as massive as a ghost. However, it will be a little more difficult to deal with… .”

Yeon-ri said, wringing out the mop as if she had just finished cleaning. I was sitting on the floor and organizing what I had to do for tomorrow.

Ilgwi Pyeongyang was a ghost so powerful that he turned the entire imperial palace upside down.

It caused numerous casualties and left an indelible scar on the history of Cheongdo Palace. There was no need to explain in words how great his influence was, as he was able to take the position of deputy general just by cutting off his head.

When I heard that there were white ghosts that came after one ghost, I thought what a terrifying enemy they would be…

“Didn’t you say that Baekgwi was Yeonri from the first episode?”

“huh. I’m not sure what Taepyeong will think if I say this now… “I was pretty strong.”

“… .”

“I knew you would see it with those eyes. Oh, it’s true… .”

After organizing the cleaning supplies and putting them away, Yeonri walked over and sat down next to me.

The sky looking up from the active room is high and clear, so you can always see the stars. Because of the ecliptic landscape where light sources almost disappear at night, the starry sky at night always has more star-studded parts than the dark parts.

Now that I’ve gotten used to it, it’s been a long time since I even stop making exclamations about how grand or beautiful it is.

“Taepyeong. No matter how much of a ghost you are in my form, you must never hesitate when cutting. Understand?”

“huh. “I will never hesitate.”

“… “I thought you would give it some thought before answering.”

“I will cut you down cleanly without hesitation, so don’t worry…” !!”

When he answered in a confident tone, Yeonri shook her head. I said it as if I was asking for a little hesitation, but… There’s no way… .

“And don’t be too upset if it’s a little different from what you imagined.”

“What did you imagine?”

“Humans also go through puberty. He’s so full of malice towards the world, and he treats people so harshly… Well, that was it anyway. It’s a bit embarrassing to show others your stormy times… I feel very strange… .”

“I can’t really imagine it, but… .”

“and… Like I said, it was pretty strong. Now I just lie down like this and say goodbye to the years, but at the time I lived quite hard. “I’ve lost a lot of my strength now.”

Yeonri lay down on the floor and looked up at the starry sky.

The spread hem of the maid’s uniform looked like spread wings.

“I no longer have the energy left to handle the power of the Heavenly Dragon… It feels strange to hear that this is the last episode. “I felt like I had been living for quite a long time, so I thought that when I reached the end, I would feel a surge of emotion or a sense of crisis.”

“If you think about it that way, then. “Why are you so relaxed?”

“so-so… I was so excited when my imagined goal got closer, and I thought the world would look different… “It was just a continuation of everyday life as usual.”

Yeon-ri said with an uncharacteristically light laugh.

“I may have been a bit off or broken at some point.”

“… Maybe I just wanted to relieve some of my difficult feelings by doing so. “Everyone does it.”

I said, throwing a small rock near the floor into the yard. The stone rolled several times on the dirt floor and then stopped, resting quietly in the yard.

“A person’s mental power is originally expendable. “You have to take good care of it while it’s there.”

“huh.”

He didn’t seem to be pestering me like he usually did, and the way he just accepted it as an understanding made me feel uncomfortable.

If you think about it, what Yeon-ri said also made sense.

If I were Yeon-ri, I would be very nervous about the current situation and I would be out of breath.

After countless repetitions, we have finally reached the last episode, but how can we look at the world with such a relaxed attitude and contemplation?

There really is something twisted somewhere in his heart, and Yeon-ri may have cultivated it well in her own way. For her, life must have naturally been premised on repetition, predestination, and regression.

Can we say that we are living it?

then… After all this ordeal…

If Yeokdeunggwi were able to see the future after her death, what kind of expression would she make?

Should you cry and hug me and shout out thank you?

Or, as usual, should I just swallow my soup and rice with a bitter look on my face and just sit around cleaning the house?

I couldn’t imagine either way, so I decided not to bother guessing.

However, I just thought that I could at least offer some consolation to her as she continued her difficult journey.

“Taepyeong.”

In a corner of the floor where the starlight was located, Yeonri called to me as if in a whisper.

“Is soup and rice for dinner tonight too?”

“huh.”

“… .”

The next morning.

A pavilion built elegantly in the center of a waterfall with clear water flowing through it. Cheonokjeong.

Finally, the new Princess of Cheondo, Jin Cheongrang, was able to enter there.

Early morning, the sun hasn’t even risen yet. This is when Jincheonrang entered the deepest part of Cheonryongchae to see the scenery of Cheonokjeong.

At the time of dawn, when the sun’s rays are just shining on Asrai Cheonokjeong.

A girl who shouldn’t be here was sitting on one side of Cheonokjeong.

This was Ahyeon, the former Princess of Cheondo.

Before Jin Cheongrang could react, something in the shape of the girl was hugging her shoulder and whispering something.

Jin Qinglang’s pupils trembled once, and his gaze moved away.

Surviving on Ropan Episode 112

Thin ice (1)

“Starting today, the princess will come to Cheonokjeong and practice the energy of the heavenly dragon between the Cheongsu Waterfalls. “You must always guard the entrance to Cheonokjeong and be able to deliver anything whenever you need it, so schedule your time well and take shifts.”

“Yes, Chief Maid.”

The only person who can have a private relationship with Princess Cheondo is at least an upper-class maid.

It was impossible for the personnel below that level to even meet Princess Cheondo, the most noble woman in this country, alone, without those leading them.

She is the Princess of Cheondo who must be treated with the utmost courtesy in her every move and every action. Therefore, although she always led her maids around, she had no choice but to be alone when she sat alone in Cheonokjeong and received the energy of the heavenly dragon.

Therefore, the place where Seol Taepyeong and Princess Ahyeon met alone was always at Cheonokjeong, and they could hardly even talk to each other in other places. Other than that, it was an inner room with a bed as it was a place to spend time alone, and it would not have been possible to bring in an outsider man there.

* * *

* * *

“During the early morning hours, have the Seol maid guard the entrance to Cheonokjeong.”

“Yes, I understand.”

When the chief maid Yi-ryeong said this, the upper-class maid Seol-ran lowered her head and answered softly.

“Taepyeong. Didn’t I tell you that it’s almost time for the Hundred Demons to come out? “From today onwards, you must carefully concentrate your mind and look at your work every day.”

“If you tell me how white ghosts appear, I will pay attention…” .”

“hmm… Actually, it’s ambiguous. “The White Ghost appeared at the palace in a different way every time.”

The next morning.

After confirming all the contents of the early morning report from the activation room, and giving appropriate instructions to his lieutenants, he was preparing to go to the main palace.

Yeonri spoke with a cautious expression while helping me get dressed up.

“Weolgwi Yoran tried to destroy the palace from within, and Ilgwi Pyeongryang literally tried to destroy the palace by force. Both of them would not have been easy opponents, but Baekgeui sometimes acts like this… . Sometimes in that way… . “I arrived at the palace in different directions each time, depending on the situation.”

“okay… ?”

“huh. Since the situation was different in each episode, the white ghost also moved in different ways depending on the situation. “He has a flexible mindset and adapts quickly to situations, so he is difficult to deal with.”

“… “Baekgwi definitely said it was you, Yeon-ri from the first episode, right?”

“… “I was quite an authoritative bookkeeper.”

“… .”

“… .”

But what happened… .

no… . What are you going to do by saying this?

“As I said, this is the most successful and most likely situation in history. In short, this is the first time that something has worked out so perfectly, so there is no way to know how the White Ghost will turn out.”

“Yeonri, your advice seems helpful, but it always leaves out important parts… .”

“Then what should I do…” . This is my first time in this life too… .”

Yes, the mere warning of the arrival of the White Ghost itself has some meaning… .

The problem was that I couldn’t figure out how to deal with it.

“The princess went to her boudoir early to eat. “He just left a message asking me to call him into the inner room because he has something to discuss with his assistant when he comes.”

“Is it okay if I come into the boudoir?”

“General Seol is already a proven figure and is serving as a public adjutant, so it is not against etiquette.”

When you have more to lose, trust in those around you increases.

I believe that he will not do something stupid like misbehave in front of the Princess of Heaven and throw away the rank of general he had worked so hard to build.

I nodded to the words of the head maid, Yi-ryeong, and headed to the inner room located in the deepest part of Cheonryongchae.

Of course, the interior of Cheonokjeong and Cheonryongchae are completely different.

In order to enter the Cheonryongchae, anyone had to take a bath, shed a drop of blood in the clear water to prove that they were not a ghost, and could only enter after bowing and performing a ritual in front of the huge Cheonryong statue so as not to anger the Cheonryong. .

When Princess Ahyeon was the owner of Cheonryongchae, she had the Cheonryongpae, so she was able to skip all these things, but the new Princess Cheondo had not yet received the Cheonryongpae, so she had to go through all the work.

Next time, I’ll have to subtly ask for the Heavenly Dragon Pavilion.

– Grumble

So, after completing all the difficult rituals, we made our way to the inner room.

Befitting the size of the magnificent Cheonryongchae, one had to open and pass through five luxurious paper doors just to enter the inner room of the Princess Cheondo.

And as I approached the final middle door, the maid who guided me walked backwards and disappeared with her head down.

“Whoa… I guess I’ll have to get the real Heavenly Dragon plaque this time.’

I sighed and opened the last paper door leading to the inner room.

The inner room of Princess Cheondo is too large for one person. On one side, there are bedding and wardrobes decorated with luxurious flower decorations, and in front of the wooden window on the other side, where warm sunlight comes in, there is a wooden table with a table perfect for drinking tea. The girl was sitting there.

From Noble mtl dot com

Jin Cheong-rang, Princess of Cheondo.

She was quietly looking up at the branches of the plum tree outside the window, basking in the warm sunlight.

The teacup in front of me seemed like it hadn’t been touched in a long time. The steam rising calmly flowed out the window with the wind.

“oh… .”

He glanced at me for a moment, then smiled happily.

“Come and sit here, Taepyeong.”

And in the words that followed, I sensed some kind of ominousness.

“Oh, princess. “It’s not good to use such a light title.”

“why… ? You don’t like it… ? I want to call you familiarly… .”

“Princess?”

Only then did my sixth sense truly sense the strange feeling.

For some reason, Jin Cheongrang was giving off a completely different feeling than usual.

It is not unusual for the vision to seem strangely out of focus, but when you close your eyes and open them again, they appear to be fine.

“Princess. First of all, when it comes to the relationship between military and god… .”

“Don’t say such boring things… . huh?”

Jin Cheong-rang got up from his seat, walked towards me, crouched down in front of me while I was kneeling, and flicked my hand.

“These are truly manly hands with raised veins and calluses. “Because so much blood was shed on the battlefield, there must have been a lot of pain that couldn’t be talked about.”

“Princess.”

“Just stay still. Come on, let me sweep your hand. Swoossssssssssssssssssssssssssss.”

“Princess. “If you do this, you’ll be in trouble.”

“Is it okay if I rub your shoulders and back? That’s because I am truly amazed by your sturdy physique. I want to sweep away something that is wide in my chest… .”

Such blatant harassment… ?

I swallowed dry saliva and took a deep breath to regain my composure.

I expected that every day working at Tianlongchae would be a series of defensive battles, but I could not have imagined that such an ordeal would come from the beginning.

That’s right. Even though Jin Cheongrang was a young person, he knew how to at least discern between interests and interests.

In addition, he had a surprisingly sly temperament, so he did not engage in overt, active courting behavior.

The current Jin Cheongrang feels as if a string has been torn from his heart… A strange atmosphere was flowing.

If you get caught here, you’ll die… .

Not in a metaphorical sense, but really dead… !

“Princess. If you do this… .”

“Do you think I’m talking through my jokes? Look into my eyes… . My eyes are serious… .”
