episode 685 insider circumstances (7)
after talking outside for a bit, ray brought prince semir into the private room.
“sit there anywhere.”
while talking, i pour the steaming black tea into a teacup.
the fragrant aroma of tea soothed the prince’s mind and body.
leaning back in her chair, ray took a sip of her tea and said.
“so what happened?”
judging by his appearance, he doesn’t seem to have come to apologize for what happened in the demonic church.
prince semir’s expression darkened for an instant.
“i would like your help.”
“help?”
ray asked as if he didn’t understand.
prince semir confided in him.
what is the current situation surrounding the royal family and how the king came to punish himself as a member of the royal family.
all day long, he ran around the castle looking for nobles to lend him his strength, but all of them were rejected.
after explaining that, ray also had a rough picture in his head of what would happen next.
he clicked his tongue
“tsk tsk, there is nothing i can do to help unless the aristocrats have been drugged as a group.”
in a way, those who value their title or territory rather than their own bodies are nobles.
there would be no reason to act on prince semir’s outrageous proposal.
perhaps even thinking about it himself, prince semir couldn’t even answer properly.
“it’s not difficult to help, but it’s okay.”
ray said while looking directly at prince semir.
“did you think about the next day?”
foreign nationals meddling in politics inevitably causes problems in many ways.
that would bring about a change even for prince semir.
are you really ready to take responsibility for it?
silent eyes without words.
it made my heart feel cold like a well-organized sword.
he couldn’t answer the question right away.
resolution.
now that i think about it, he was just trying to take responsibility for what he had done.
i hadn’t even thought about the consequences of that.
-do not forsake the responsibilities and duties of those who stand above you.
it reminded me of my father’s words that i had been saying since i was a child.
his royalty.
his royal family.
it is a body that ran away in a car that was fed up with nagging enough to make a scab sit on its ear.
however, when i listened to his words and thought about it again, i couldn’t find the slightest sense of responsibility as a member of the royal family in my past self.
‘your actions while regretting the past were no different from before.’
after realizing it, i felt like i knew a little bit.
the determination of those who have to make decisions and the boldness to take responsibility for what is done.
that was the lumber of the would-be king.
and the current king, whom he had ridiculed and disapproved of, was truly a person more worthy of a king than anyone else.
prince semir, who had been lost in thought for a long time, nodded with a different face than before.
“help me. i will take all responsibility.”
when he, who had thought he was an immature prince, overlapped with king gleiman’s face for an instant, ray smiled.
‘as expected, blood can’t be deceived.’
“how are you going to pay?”
it is obvious, but the basic principle of sangdo is that if you have helped, you must get it back.
at that, semir smiled meaningfully and answered the question with a question.
“who do you think will benefit the most if the three powerless princes rise to the throne?”
the direct benefit may be taken by the king and his successors.
but in the process, he would form a friendly relationship with gleiman.
rumors couldn’t help but spread as they chased nobles all day and demanded to join the king’s faction.
among them, the majority of those who did not like the look.
“it must have been because of my father.”
“ha ha ha. are you talking about that palpo? he is a very filial prince.”
when the nobles chew and laugh at him.
ray walked in and out of daejeon.
his appearance in pure white overalls instead of worn-out robes was enough to draw the attention of many nobles.
a platinum brooch that goes well with her hair color stands out on her chest.
an accessory that even the lessian empire doesn’t make very many.
several nobles who recognized the true value of the brooch swallowed in vain.
“yes, the seal of eminence!”
“it’s not blue or red, it’s platinum...”
his subordinate’s seal.
if you show it to the commander, you will be given the authority to command some combat troops of the lesian empire in case of emergency.
even in the empire, it was difficult to imagine the value of a brooch with a seal that only the emperor or his successor could bestow.
the knight who recognized ray took an example.
“meet the monarch of the principality.”
“please send a message to the king.”
“yes.”
the knight, who had been quieting his voice for a moment, exclaimed loudly.
“prince soleil eats it!”
with the words, the door to the audience room slowly opens.
ray walked down the red-carpeted hallway into the throne room and knelt before king greyman.
“meet his majesty the king.”
it is an excessive example to say that it is a greeting exchanged between the king and the king.
unsurprisingly, the aristocrats who were watching from the outside were agitated.
it must have been quite a shock to see the king, who was thought of as a powerless old man, receive the courtesy of a saint.
this was ray’s intention.
‘even if it’s this much, i won’t be able to touch it carelessly.’
while he was thinking that, king gleiman greeted him with a gleeful smile.
“it’s really nice to see you again, prince.”
“yes, your majesty.”
“so what’s your business with jim?”
ray confidently said to the king who asked with a smile on his face.
“i want to find out about the epidemic spreading in the capital. give me your manpower.”
even the king seemed quite surprised by his words that far exceeded expectations.
the king, who was tidying up his beard, asked.
“before you are a prince, you are also a saint. if you solve the kingdom’s plague, there is nothing that you can’t provide labor. i’m just curious as to why you thought so. if you look at it, isn’t it just a foreign job to you?”
ray answered the question with a smile.
“do you need a reason to help others? as you said, i am the body that was a saint. if so, there is no reason.”
in fact, there is a reason.
in order to strengthen the kingship, he had to move himself, but moving alone would not be of much help.
on the other hand, it is a different story if you lead the troops, solidify your position, and begin to lay the groundwork here.
the biggest reason was to investigate infectious diseases and treat the sick, but that was not the only reason.
‘if semir is chosen as the next king, it’s a good thing for me.’
a king in debt is easy to use.
a good card that can be used in times of emergency appeals with all its might to catch up with me, but how can i just leave it alone?
however, as king gleiman, who did not know that fact, he was deeply moved by ray’s words.
“...i see you are the person chosen by the goddess. please, i hope jim’s insensitive words do not trouble you.”
“i apologize.”
the smoke is very good.
king gleiman, deeply moved, nodded vigorously.
“good night. let’s get the resources of the nobles and recruit manpower.”
it was the moment when the good-hearted king was fooled by the saint with a black inside.
