Episode 453

Wi Jeong-pil hurriedly stopped the work.

“Jimmu Dojang, how could Your Highness do that...”

“Shut up, old man. are you a baby If you don’t want to die earlier than Myeong, you’re crushed.”

Seeing Jinmu staring at him with terrifying eyes, Wi Jeong-pil felt his breath stop.

“Hey kid.”

“....”

“Is that really what you think? You want to run away?”

At those words, the prince looked at Jinmu without avoiding Jinmu’s bloody eyes even though his eyes were calmly trembling.

Even that seasoned Wi Jeong-pil is so blue that he can’t open his mouth.

Although the skin and bones are similar, it is indeed a platform worthy of the title of crown prince.

The true light that I saw when we first met was not a lie.

As Wi Jeong-pil said, it is a look that a naive guy who thinks of escaping can never have.

“I will not deny it. I hate this yellow castle.”

“You don’t like it?”

“Yeah, I hate it.”

“...”

“I hate my father who turned away from my mother’s death, and I hate my uncle who tries to use me in pursuit of power. Even those who cling to them and covet power, wrapped in the name of loyalty...

“...”

The prince deeply bit his lip at Jinmu’s words.

“Yes, she... killed my mother.”

“Don’t you want revenge?”

“plural? Do I look strong?”

The prince smiled and showed his skinny arms.

“It’s the same with this body, but I only have the crown prince’s name, but I have no strength. At the very least, Wi Jeong-pil, who feels sorry for me, is the only one.”

Jinmu listened to the voice that flowed from the mouth of the little boy, Prince Ani.

“But I know I have to take responsibility.”

“responsibility?”

“okay. A lot of people died to save me to protect me.”

“...”

“I didn’t want to be born as the Crown Prince, but it’s a responsibility I must shoulder and a debt I must pay.”

“But did you try to escape because you had no strength?”

At Jinmu’s question, the crown prince closed his mouth for a moment and looked at Wi Jeong-pil, who was sitting on one side, vaguely.

“Yeah, it was embarrassing. The image of people living freely like you.”

“...”

“When I heard your story, I thought I wanted to throw everything away and go after you.”

“I’ll let you go if you want. If only my purpose is fulfilled.”

“I’m leaving...”

The prince silently repeated Jinmu’s words and laughed.

“Well, can I?”

“what?”

“Wind is just wind. I can’t leave this place I survived not because I wanted to save my life, but because I hoped that the opportunity would come someday.”

“hope?”

“Yes, I hope that there are still more people who are loyal to this imperial family than those who covet power like the nobles and uncles.”

“....”

“And even if I said I was chasing you, what would that mean? He who pursues knows that he will never get ahead. It is a different life from mine.”

“Hoo!”

A groan escaped from Jinmu’s mouth.

“It’s pretty good for a kid.”

“You are unmanned and quite good. To say such words to the crown prince?”

“It’s overrated.”

Jinmu smiled at the prince’s laugh-like criticism.

“I liked it anyway.”

“...?”

“Because I knew he was worth trading with.”

“What do you mean?”

“I plan to get rid of the queen and the queen from now on.”

“what? is that now?”

The prince widened his eyes as if surprised.

According to Wi Jeong-pil, he is neutral, but he is close to King Yeong’s person. Why?

“The preparations have already been completed and you are my last hand. Yeokman (役滿: the best hand in mahjong).”

“Only stations?”

“okay. The highest and hardest hand to come out of. A final blow no one expected.”

Jinmu’s mischievous expression made the prince’s eyes shake wildly.

What is the alternative interest rate?

“Why me?”

“Has the Emperor Omok returned?”

“Not yet...”

asked Jinmu as he walked out the door, and Omok, who was ready to move, shook his head.

“The damn idiot is dragging on needlessly. go and tell He will be attending the Daejeon Conference, so be sure to bring the contents of the interrogation of the kingship, especially the proof that the poison of the black snake was involved in the deaths of the princes.”

“All right.”

“Great Palace!”

“yes.”

“Send a call to Sechan. The fake prince game is over. Erase all traces and immediately withdraw from the search for the real crown prince.”

“All right.”

The Omok and Daegung received different orders and flung themselves.

“The rest will go to the imperial castle.”

“yes!”

* * *

Dang Se-ryeong’s hand, which was thinly slicing through the flesh, stopped, and Hwang-shin’s eyes widened like a bell.

“You child! What do you mean?”

“...”

Dang Se-ryeong, her eyes wide open, grabbed the kingship by the collar.

However, there was no way that Wangjik, whose whole body was in tatters, could speak properly.

Although he was a king who had undergone severe training from the palace to fulfill his duties, he was helpless in front of the cruel torture of Dang Se-ryeong.

The pain caused by the torture was also painful, but perhaps because of the amount of blood shed, she was not in a sound state of mind.

“...never... can’t... survive.”

“...”

He muttered the same words over and over again.

He was given medicine to help him survive the torture, but he would soon die.

Should I believe

Shall we dismiss it as speaking casually in a state of stupor?

If true, the imperial palace would surely face the worst.

“What about you, sister?”

“What the fuck what! You should tell me soon.”

Dang Seryeong tried to move without even washing away the blood on his hands.

“Hwangsin!”

At that moment, the door to the torture room was thrown open.

“The sub-lord?”

“Here you are. I need to move quickly.”

“yes?”

Oemok asked Dang Se-ryeong, ignoring Hwangshin’s question.

“Did you find out anything?”

“...?”

I figured it out because I tortured him.

“I found out several things. What a terrifying plan indeed. But what is it?”

“I’m glad. You should go to the imperial palace as soon as possible.”

“The imperial palace?”

“yes. The Daejeon Conference was held. While going there, the Heavenly Lord told me to bring what I found out and what Mandokjeonju found out about the poison of the Book of Black Death.”

“...!”

Dang Se-ryeong and Hwang Shin opened their eyes wide and looked at him at the same time.

“The Daejeon meeting was held?”

“yes? yes. But why are you so surprised?”

“Shit!”

“...?”

When Dang Se-ryeong spat out swear words with a chewed expression, the outer eyes made a more puzzled expression.

“The situation is at its worst.”

“What is it?”

“I will explain as I go. I’ll put together what uncle found out and follow right away, so please head to the imperial palace as soon as possible.”

“...yes?”

“It absolutely has to be stopped. No one should be allowed to attend the Daejeon Conference.”

“That’s...”

He kept saying more and more unknown things.

Shouldn’t you tell me the reason for something to convince me?

“I hope not, but if the queen has the worst in mind... everyone in the meeting will die.”

“Yes?”

Dang Se-ryeong, who had only one eye that could not properly grasp the situation, blinked blankly and could not stand it, pulling his collar and shouting.

“What are you looking at! Hurry up, you slug bastard! If you do something wrong, your captain and all the people living in the imperial palace will die!”

“...”

What is it? What is this familiar idiom? It’s like Heaven... It feels like that.

“Are your ear canals clogged? Aren’t you running fast?”

“Yes? Yes!”

The outer eye, which answered awkwardly, hurriedly ran toward the imperial palace.
