The next day, Seung-Kwan went straight to question Kang Su-Jin.
Really... Is it all over now? Come to think of it, we said we had a friendly marriage, but we've never had a wedding ceremony... Seriously
"We're just living together... not marriage..."
"What else are you dissatisfied with?"
"..? When did you come?"
"Heh.. I'll just come anytime~"
Mr. Yoon Jeong-han also... He shows up well when needed... anywhere
"So what is our heroine's concern?"
"Honestly.. you only said it was a friendly marriage, you didn't say anything.. This is just living together.. what is it..?"
"But maybe Seungkwan Boo has some thoughts too?"
" what.. "
"If you keep fighting with Kang Su-jin, you don't know how much she'll torment you."
" .. I guess so.. "
Well... I know how much Kang Su-jin will torment me... But... I want to get angry... But this is just us spending time together...
"Or you tell me"
" yes? "
"If it's Seung-kwan, he'll definitely listen to most of what you say."
" Haha.. but"
"Why? Are you still afraid of Seung-kwan?"
"Uh..no.. "
"Then why?"
"I know how Seungkwan feels, so how can I tell you..."
"Ha.. Are you saying they're really the same?"
"What...what does that mean?"
"Ha.. No, it's no use telling me.. Well, then figure it out!"
" yes? "
"Just as you wish, to raise your spirits."
'Swoosh-'
..what if he just says what he wants to say and leaves.. Seriously..what does he want me to do.. huh
'Bang-'
" ..Choi Naegwan.. here.. how"
"Quickly..! You must go to the cold palace..!! Emperor Seunggwan..!! "
" .. ..what's going on?"
"Ugh..Come on, hurry up..!!!"
" ...Okay. Let's go together."
'Drrrrr-'
"Ah.. Before we go, Seungcheol, let's go together."
"Yes, Mama."
Oh, I'm late with the introduction... This person is the royal guard that Bu Seung-gwan assigned to me as soon as he arrived in the Yuan Dynasty. He is said to be the second most outstanding person in this palace, after Seok-min, that is, Seung-gwan's royal guard.
'Bang-'
"..what happened?"
" Uh... that"
" ..stop!"
" ...you"
"Jun-Hwi, no, Master, what are you doing now?"
" Uh.. that.. "
"What you're trying to do now... are you trying to take out Kang Su-jin..?"
Even though I usually seem very timid, I'm definitely not that timid at times... It feels like you're making me look weak.
"Please...don't say that..."
"Then go right now and personally confess the Crown Prince's crime to Emperor Seunggwan."
"What is that"
"Don't you understand? I'm saying I have no intention of letting you see it."
" Haha.. but"
"Listen! Lock up and interrogate Eunuch Choi as well. And fix that weakened door, okay?"
"N..yes!"
'Bang-'
"Oh.. Still, you're pretty cool."
"Thanks for the compliments haha"
"But those guys are so funny too"
"What is it?"
"How can you try to deceive someone so pure? Haha, that's really foolish. Deceiving a pure person is the easiest and most difficult thing."
"What does that mean?"
"Well... that's what I mean~ haha. Just let it go~"
" ..yes "
Ah.. my head hurts.. it's so complicated.. in my head.. today.. I think it's better to rest a bit.
'Drrrrr-'
"Hey.. you're here?"
" yes.. "
"Why are you so tired? Are you sick somewhere?"
"I brought it to the cold palace earlier."
"Uh...why?"
"I was tricked by Eunuch Choi. So when I went there... Kang Su-jin was in a terrible state."
" .. Choi Naegwan?"
"Yes. Why?"
"In our palace, none of the eunuchs with the Choi surname are in charge of the cold palace?"
"That sound..."
"...Look here! Bring that man named Choi Naegwan here right now!"
"P..Your Majesty!! The woman in the cold palace has disappeared! And.. "
" ...? "
"Prince Junhwi has also disappeared!"
" ...Catch him now, hurry!!"
"N..yes!"
'Bang-'
"Uh..what is this..?"
"Hey lady"
"Huh? "
"If... I really... become weird, will you be on my side?"
"Ugh...what is that all of a sudden..."
"Maybe... I'm really... scared..."
"What is that?"
"I'm afraid I'll become like him... I'm afraid that day will be replayed again..."
"Uh..what is that.. "
"Please... stop me from becoming that person."
He's crying. My man, who always seemed so strong, is crying so sadly. His eyes look so sad.
' Hug- '
"Cry. Cry as much as you want, as much as you're scared. Crying is the best medicine in times like these."
" Heh.. sob.. ah.. "
"As much as you want to cry... I will protect you... so for now... be honest with the Emperor."
"If I become like that person, I'm afraid that the people around me will leave me. And I'm afraid that you'll get hurt."
"I see.. So that's what Seungkwan did.. He must have been so scared."
"I'm scared to be honest about my feelings..."
After that, I patted him on the back without saying a word. In times like these, it's best to just listen quietly. After all, Seung-kwan... wasn't he the one who suffered the most?
"Is it done now?"
"Yeah.. yeah"
" Haha.. Our emperor is a total crybaby, more so than he looks."
"How long are you going to call me Emperor?"
"No... Seungkwan?"
"I don't like that either..."
"What's good?"
" ..brother, I like that"
" .. but that's.. still.. "
" .. why? "
"Okay.. I understand, Seungkwan."
"Look... It's Seungkwan again..."
"..don't be upset..hehe"
" .... "
" ..brother "
"Okay.. Okay"
'The next day'
Yesterday, we heard that Jun-hwi and Kang Su-jin had been captured. So, we prepared ourselves and headed out early this morning.
" ..!!! "
Jun-hwi and Kang Soo-jin were in a state of unspeakable disfigurement. Kang Soo-jin appeared to have been tortured repeatedly, and Jun-hwi seemed to have suffered alongside her while trying to protect her. Soo-jin was so disfigured that it was hard to believe she had done it to a woman.
"Oh..no, how could it be like that.. "
Even though I'm like that, I didn't want it to be that bad... But where did the person who was the eunuch Choi go?
"Hey... Brother"
" why? "
"Where did that man named Choi Naegwan go?"
" Really? Where did it go..?"
Where is this Choi Naegwan? Surely he didn't run away?
In the end, the verdict was that Moon Jun-hwi was exiled, although not as severely, because he was the crown prince, and Kang Su-jin was sentenced to death because she sold me to another country.
Then suddenly someone shouted.
"Kill the emperor of this country..!!!!"
Choi Naegwan aimed his bow at his older brother. "No... please..."
'Swoosh-'
'Pook-'
The arrow missed my heart a little, but it hit so hard that I collapsed on the spot.
"Hey lady!!!!"
Ah.. I'm dying now.. Really.. Wow, I came here for a reconciliation wedding and got shot by an arrow and died like this.. Seriously haha.. I have to live better next time...
'Slurp-'
Brother...
Even if I'm not here... please... don't cry...
Just... forget me... and meet a pretty woman... and live happily ever after.
That is my last wish...
Please.
