Idols Around the World 763

Chapter 763 – #96. Jinhaesol (67)

‘The emperor of the empire must keep a secret promise…’

Sideways.
It is the place where the emperor and nobles decide big and small politics.
And as the new emperor of the Geos Empire, she couldn’t hide her nervousness and bit her fingernails.
Although she was a dignified figure unlike an emperor, she was handed over as if she hadn’t seen it because the situation of the nobles who had to point it out wasn’t very good either.

“Your majesty.”
“Yes?”
“How shall I come? Will you give orders to attack?”

The troops sent to the territory to stop the nobles who caused civil war returned and took up positions near the army of the invaded empire.
As soon as the new emperor gives the order, war will begin.

“Jim, I don’t know Jim. I don’t know anything about war. Gather your opinions and tell me what to do.”

Eventually, the new emperor clung to the nobles.
She knows she shouldn’t be like this, but the only people she can hang on to are nobles.
Aren’t they the ones who have been working with the emperor all this time?
She believed that she at least knew how to order the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.
But…

“Hmmmm, Your Majesty. It is not good for a ruler to postpone such an important matter to his subjects.”
“The rulers are ready to do anything for Your Majesty. Honey, please order what you think is right.”

The nobles were not willing to take any responsibility for this war.
That would also be true, because the emperor’s army was not in a normal state.
The first thing the nobles did when they changed emperors was to order their soldiers back to their lands.
Thanks to this, the emperor’s army was now a balloon that had been inflated in size due to forced conscription.
What would happen if such an army fought the Empire?

“Why is no one helping me and telling me to make a decision! Would you really do it if Jim told you to attack?”
“Of course it comes. The soldiers of the Geos Empire are willing to go to the battlefield under your command.”
“Then what if everyone dies!!”
“It will be an honor for the family to give their lives for the great Geos Empire.”

Taking care of the glory of the family is the job of nobles.
The irony is that commoners are the first to die when a war breaks out.
Even if they died on the battlefield, they could not receive any compensation.
Just a few gold thrown by the imperial palace is delivered to the family in a formal way.
Even most of that gold would go into the hands of the lord, and it would be replaced with rice or flour the size of a rat’s tail and distributed to the people.
That was the inevitable fate of those recruited as soldiers of the Geos Empire.
The new emperor could not overcome the aristocrats who eventually shied away from responsibility.

“I will send an envoy to the empire. No matter how you look at it, it’s not good to go to war with the Empire here. Shouldn’t we be able to suppress the aristocrats who caused the civil war only if we maintain the current military?”
“The army of the Geos Empire will not be defeated. It is not right to mention defeat without even starting. Please believe in the army of the Geos Empire!”

I told you to do what you want, so I did what I wanted, but now it’s not again.

“If so, does Count Sola think that our army will be able to defeat the Imperial army and win? Would he be right to go to war with the Empire?”
“… I’m sorry. Your Majesty has perverted the will of your convictions. I didn’t mean it in that way.”
“Didn’t I just tell you to trust our military! But didn’t you want to go to war? So, does the Count agree to send an envoy to the Empire?”
“I’m just trusting Your Majesty’s wise judgment.”

It’s not that I don’t believe it, it’s that I don’t want to interfere!

‘I’m going to fuck it.’

The new emperor chewed on the swear words he couldn’t bear to let out.
Until the very end, he showed himself the attitude of a great nobleman who shied away from responsibility.
If that’s the case, why don’t you do the opposite!

‘I think I know why he became a tyrant. He would have had to be a tyrant to deal with things like that.’

You asked me to decide on my own, so I decided to send an envoy with a big heart, and the things that had been closed like clams open their mouths as if they were burned and tackle right away.
So then I asked your opinion if it would be right for you to go to war with the empire, and that’s not the case again.

Then what do you want to see me?

“What on earth do you want from Jim?”

If you throw away the courtesy and dignity that you are clumsily learning in a frustrating mind and ask directly.

“The castle is ruined!”

Sung puts up this shield.
It seems that the only thing they know how to say is last name.

“Say something else other than saying that sex is exaggerated! Are you saying you want to send an envoy or not!”

Stuffy things shut up again.
In the past, the emperor was not sure if the choice he had made was the right one.

‘Isn’t there a need for me to come here? I should have handed it over to another member of the imperial family…’

When she became emperor, she had things she wanted to do.
It is to free the blood cousins ​​who have been persecuted by the tyrannical emperor.

‘Letters of thanks are still coming up every day.’

He was an emperor who was well aware of how horrendous and difficult life is, having to be monitored by someone all his life.
So, the royal family was freed from all surveillance and given the right to live freely.
He even rewarded them with the gold and silver treasures overflowing in the imperial palace.
And that was the emperor’s only dream.

‘I have nothing more to do. I just want to play and eat like the rest of the royal family.’

He just wanted to live comfortably.
Anything was fine as long as I could meet the people I wanted to meet and not live under someone’s watch.
But what!
After becoming emperor, isn’t this being watched in another sense?
It is the existence of knights and courtiers who guard her side 24 hours a day.

‘Ah… It looks like the face will be pierced. I hate it.’

Of course, they are not watching to report their every move to the tyrannical emperor like before.
But…

‘I don’t like it when people stare at me in any way!’

However, once he ascended to the position of emperor, he could not refuse to take his courtiers with him.
That’s why I regret belatedly.
I regret that I had to stand in the vanguard.

‘Is there anyone in the royal family who is interested in the position of emperor? I can just do good and come down.’

Had she waited with bated breath instead of standing in her vanguard, her other cousin, not her, might have stepped into this position of hers and freed her.

‘I hate nobles so much. It’s strange to say What are you asking me to do? Why don’t you speak directly? Are you saying that because you want to brag about being smart?’

Okay!! I am an unlearned ignorant bastard! So, please be direct!

I want to scream out loud, but that’s something I can only imagine.
To pierce her stuffy stomach today, she punched only her small breasts with her fist.
And she said with a feeling that she didn’t know.

“Since no one seems to oppose it, I will send an envoy to the Empire. Go there and find out what they want in exchange for stopping the war.”

Her aristocrats did not refuse, even with her very talkative look on her face, when she made sure to do her bidding.
Finally, the war with the Empire, which was a nuisance of the Geos Empire, entered its final stage.

♧ ♧ ♧

The envoy sent to her empire returned pretty quickly.
The Empire had already thought of all the costs of ending the war.
With a deep sigh, the new emperor opened his letter and read it.
And each time he read it down, he only sighed deeply.
To be honest, it didn’t matter if I gave everything the benefactor asked for.
She had no knowledge of how important or valuable these things were to the Empire.
I guess I just asked for something good… She had a carefree idea to do.

‘The problem is the nobles…’

If you confirm what the imperial emperor asked for, the aristocrats will surely bite their teeth.
The fight between those who wanted to tear off even a little bit more and those who wanted to protect it was nothing short of hell.

“The Emperor of the Empire has brought a request. But Jim seems to have a lot of excesses. Nobles, I’d like to hear what you think. And I want to know what I can give away and what I must absolutely keep.”

The emperor spat out the lines prepared with great care in front of the nobles.
There was still a lot of time left until an opportunity was created for negotiations in earnest.
And as soon as the nobles saw the conditions demanded by the emperor, they frothed and shouted their objections.

“Neither this nor that. What if you just say no to everything? To end the war, something must be handed over to the Empire! I haven’t even had my luck with the prisoner exchange yet!”

The problem is that the nobles nailed it, saying they couldn’t give everything the emperor asked for.
The land shouldn’t be like this, the princesses shouldn’t be like that, and the demand for compensation shouldn’t be too big.
What’s the point of just saying no to everything?

“From now on, don’t just say no, say what you can give. There must be something worth giving up.”

The emperor let out a sigh, thinking that a day felt like a year.
If time was contained in a sigh, the emperor would have grown old rapidly.
