Chapter 955 – #99. Three Thousand Concubines and Emperor Gaiden (13)
“This time, I’m going to show my abilities to my father!”
“Even without that, His Majesty always praises the Crown Prince.”
“No! It’s only because I’m the crown prince. I’ve never shown my true abilities before.”
“…”
All of his other siblings were talented, but both his father and mother were exceptionally fond of himself.
When I was young, I thought it was because I was special.
However, as time passed, the crown prince, who became a child, realized that the world was not such an easy place.
As she learned politics from her mother, she learned that a world other than what she could see existed.
‘Of course, it’s true that I’m more special than others.’
However, he didn’t like the fact that that specialness was obtained through her mother’s halo, not her own ability.
The other children were discriminated against simply because they were not the empress’ children.
‘If my mother hadn’t been the empress, would I have been treated the same as her younger siblings? Aren’t I amazing because I’m not my mother’s son?’
She couldn’t believe that Obama favored her not because of her outstanding abilities, but because of her bloodline.
And she said that it was something that aroused the coming from her crown prince’s point of view.
‘I’m so talented!’
I’d rather not know if I didn’t have the ability.
From an early age, the crown prince was a genius who showed sufficient ability to succeed the emperor.
If it’s a problem
‘The other kids are geniuses just like me.’
It is not unaware that other princes look at evil in front of them, saying that they are like big brother and follow him, but behind them they are lucky enough to become the crown prince and are favored by his majesty.
There was a guy who boasted that if he competed squarely with the crown prince, he would be superior.
For reference, that guy is firmly stamped by the crown prince.
I may not know that myself, though.
‘No way! Who do you dare to compare?’
The rightful successor who inherited the excellent abilities of his father and mother is the crown prince.
It seemed that Obama was not presumptuous of not paying much attention to the other princes, but the prince wanted to overpower her younger siblings by demonstrating her own abilities rather than being made comfortable by the halo of Obama.
So I thought of becoming a perfect crown prince that no one would dare to say anything about.
By using this battlefield.
‘They said that no one said they would go to the battlefield first.’
What would have happened if even one person had believed in their skills and said they wanted to go to the battlefield?
Even though the crown prince thought his younger siblings were cowards, he vowed to prove himself to everyone by doing great on this occasion.
In fact, the prince was a genius with the ability to do that.
“Abama! I can’t prove my abilities this way!”
“It’s still early.”
Obama, who seemed to allow the crown prince anything to prove himself, betrayed him.
He carried him by his side throughout the war and never let him down.
He had come to experience the war for the first time, so he was looking forward to it, so it was empty.
“A guy who doesn’t even know what war is, isn’t quick-tempered. I know why you want to be active on the battlefield, but the more you show yourself like this, the more you feel disappointed.”
“!!!”
“The battlefield is not your playground.”
“…Ah, Obama.”
“Do you know how many people’s heads will be blown off if you go wrong here?”
“…”
It is not a light thing for the crown prince to go to the battlefield.
There will be people around him who will give their lives for him, and when the prince is in danger, he will throw his life to protect him.
“Even the harbingers are sacrificing themselves so as not to become a burden to them, so why are you going wild? What do you think will happen if I’m bored here and decide to cut myself a knife?”
“…It’s going to be a mess.”
“Yeah, I’m glad I didn’t.”
“I’m sorry. Soja misunderstood.”
The prince was impatient with the desire to prove his skills to Obama, and he was alerted to the fact that it could rather disappoint Obama.
‘You made a mistake. I acted like a child.’
The position where multiple lives depended on a single choice was the position of emperor and crown prince.
It was only natural that the emperor, who should have been prudent and prudent, acted impatiently with the thought that he should make a contribution, and the emperor was displeased.
Furthermore, didn’t the crown prince go so far as to say that he was secretly coming to the battlefield?
‘I’ll have to keep quiet for a while. It’s going to be really big.’
You shouldn’t be arrogant that your father only cares about you.
Isn’t that why he came all the way here?
While the emperor scolded the crown prince.
The war was about to begin in earnest.
“Wow…”
The prince’s heart started beating wildly.
It was the first time in my life to see the appearance of the war, so I was in a state of admiration.
A huge number of troops were on the verge of fighting over the walls.
As if he had forgotten when his father had been scolded, the prince asked, moving his butt.
“How do you think the war will be today? Can we win it?”
“Okay. After today’s war, you can judge for yourself. Whether we won or lost.”
“Yes? Me?”
The prince tilted his head at Obama’s mysterious answer that he couldn’t understand.
Then he lost his gaze again to the solid castle wall in front of him.
The fact that he had to demolish that huge wall made his shoulders heavy again.
‘You said that actually experiencing a war would be different from what you imagined.’
In fact, even when he heard those words, he was confident.
He said he would be shocked and shocked by the horrifying and brutal sight, but it didn’t hit him.
Couldn’t he be so weak himself?
On the contrary, he thought he looked down on him for being young.
However, with the huge castle wall directly in front of my eyes, my saliva was swallowed in tension.
It wasn’t even that he was a soldier who had to jump toward that wall.
“I’m still not quite sure what you mean, but I’ll do it when you tell me to do it.”
The prince was very nervous and tried to hide his emotions.
He even answered Obama while bluffing.
I thought it wouldn’t be that hard to evaluate whether we won or lost.
However, it was something he had prepared for many times, but it shocked the crown prince more than he imagined in a realistic war.
⁘ ⁘ ⁘
How can people die so easily?
In fact, this was what the crown prince thought most of the time when he saw war for the first time.
There were certainly days when the crown prince’s heart raced while reading war novels.
But after witnessing a real war…
“Ooh! Ooh!”
“Oh… How do you do this?”
“Who’s the therapist?”
“Yes, yes, they will be running.”
“You should have prepared it in advance.”
The magic of the wizards knocking on the walls.
A soldier climbs a ladder and climbs a wall.
They are fried in hot oil, their bodies are ground with spear knives, and they are pierced by arrows flying from the other side.
A stone bounced off the magician’s large-scale attack magic cast from the enemy’s side could hit the back of the head or cause the face to sink and die.
There are various types of deaths taking place on the battlefield, and sometimes they happen so absurdly that you wonder why they die like that.
And it was hard for the crown prince, who hadn’t even reached adulthood, to endure all these tragedies.
Various stinks from the battlefield also played a part in shaking the spirit of the prince.
“My, the smell is so disgusting. Ugh!”
“Take the prince and go in.”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The courtiers accompanying the crown prince hurriedly took the child who was terrified and retched and went inside.
It’s not enough to shout at showing weakness on the battlefield, but isn’t a man’s arm always bent inward?
‘Just the fact that I didn’t faint is something that should be called admirable.’
I wondered how quickly the crown prince, who witnessed the brutal reality of war, would recover from the aftereffects.
Of course, you may not be able to shake off the aftereffects and become afraid of the battlefield.
But I don’t think my child will be so weak.
Moreover, he was a child who had to continue the war of conquest after me.
“It worked out rather well. It’s better to be beaten first.”
“Yes? Did you call?”
A court lady approached me and asked if I had overheard my self-talk, and I shook my head.
“No. By the way, I didn’t expect you to handle a sword so well. Seeing Jim’s remarkable performance in this crowded battlefield.”
“Are you talking about the concubine mama?”
“I’m not a concubine anymore. She came out of the concubine and jumped into the battlefield.”
The moment the prince was startled by my appearance and almost fell, she was the woman who supported her child by her side.
She didn’t know how surprised she was when the concubine, who had been living with me before she went to war, appeared on the battlefield.
She wondered how the concubine could have come this far, but after hearing the situation, she said that she came out of the concubine.
The current concubine could quit the concubine at any time if she wanted to.
Of course, for a concubine who has ever given birth to an imperial family, the procedure becomes complicated.
But what if you simply spent one night with the emperor and got no attention after that?
He was able to leave the palace without going through complicated procedures.
Of course, getting permission from the empress was the same, though.
‘Why did the woman from the concubine come to the battlefield?’
If she stopped being her concubine, she would be right to worry about making a living with the support money provided by the imperial family.
It’s not that I’m thinking of coming to the battlefield and cutting myself.
‘The fact that she came to the battlefield means that she wants to make her credit.’
Was that concubine from an aristocratic family?
Her face was familiar, but I didn’t know her name or where she came from.
There was no reason for her to bring a court lady to the battlefield to manage the concubines, so she seemed to have no one to answer her question.
And to be honest, she was a bit misunderstood.
‘I wondered if he had come to stand out for me on the battlefield.’
But it didn’t seem like it.
Did I know you were such a good swordsman?
‘If you’re at that level, do you really want to succeed rather than become a concubine?’
I didn’t know that the concubine would appear as a knight…
She still didn’t know what to do with her.
That’s why she didn’t call right away and was watching.
But seeing her active on the battlefield today, I could see that she was a person who would come out someday even if left alone like an awl in her pocket.
