Kiss your shadow

[G-Kiss] | 22.

Is it my imagination that his expression looks distorted as he turns around and looks at me?

Yes, even if the lord really didn't know anything about this, he would know that he and I were the ones who were the subject of the rumors that were frequently circulating in the palace.

...a rumor that the king was embracing a court lady.

Last night, he suffered greatly when the news spread throughout the palace that a court lady had received favor from the King.

Even if you're slow, you know that.

The reason I disappeared was because of none other than the queen.

He frowned slightly, turned his head, and whispered something so that only I could hear.

I thought it was a choice made with consideration for the people around me, so I gave my silent consent and walked away as if nothing had happened.

민윤기/이융

''Let's go to Gangnyeongjeon to talk about the details.''

Seeing that you don't seem excited even in this situation, maybe... you're not that young after all?

Squeak

Squeak-

Drumroll

Drumroll_

The window closed naturally, and silence fell over the palace.

Outside the closed door, the court ladies and eunuchs were bowing their heads without making any noise.

At the end of the hallway, which was as quiet as a mouse, a faint light came through the closed window.

The air we sat in was thick.

He was just sitting in his bed, his back straight, like he always did, and in front of the door.

As for me, who could do nothing but sit there with my head bowed, I had to do that until his death.

민윤기/이융

........

민윤기/이융

.....raise your head.

신여주

.......

민윤기/이융

..tell me everything you know.

민윤기/이융

Everything you have experienced, heard, seen, and heard about the queen, just leave it all out.

민윤기/이융

Even if it's a lie, I'll still consider it true.

Every word he spoke as he looked at me quietly seemed eerily subdued.

In one hand, he held a glass filled with chrysanthemum wine that was clinking.

The gaze that looks at me with unwavering eyes seems to contain so many meanings,

I ended up telling the whole truth without even being able to think about anything else.

신여주

.....majesty,

민윤기/이융

The Queen will be dethroned.

신여주

.......

민윤기/이융

Those actions are so utterly disgusting and detestable that she will be locked up in her own home under the name of Deposed Queen Kim and live there until she dies.

민윤기/이융

...I will call for the Prime Minister's quick recovery.

As if imagining his image in my head, my hand gripped the glass with strength.

The position of the king of a country. And the highest position to assist such a king.

It was easy to predict what grand dreams the author, who had already risen to that position as Prime Minister, would be dreaming of.

...maybe it's already being put into action.

민윤기/이융

If the Queen is deposed, the ministers will probably urge me to quickly take the position of Queen Mother.

민윤기/이융

The most admired person in that place is...

신여주

......

Concubine Jang,

Could it be that I was just watching things unfold this way?

Her face, with a smile on her lips, was vividly drawn as she sat down in the palace.

신여주

.........

Who could it be,

A person who has no backing and who is not beneficial to any of the ministers when he takes office.

But a person who has the ability not to be played around by such substitutes.

And above all, someone who can fool them.

신여주

.....

신여주

majesty.

민윤기/이융

.....?

신여주

..please put me in the position of the mother of this Joseon.

Okay, since it's come to this, rather than rebuilding the collapsed government... let's destroy it further.
