Chapter 145 - Be the m?tur? one [1] (1/2)

Just because the number of maids around the place had lowered didn't mean that Moon Jiwoo's chances of coming upon them gossiping would be zero. At least this time around they weren't all that malicious.

For the most part, they just seemed to be idle chat one did when they were bored, and it didn't seem as if they had intention of looking down her or making their distaste for her obvious. In other words, this was totally harmless.

The gossiping between them was something everyone usually did and not something one should easily be taking offense from.

However, Moon Jiwoo did not consider them to be that light. Coupled with her mentality in that moment, it was understandable why she wasn't able to accept them in a light-hearted manner and took them to be what it was more than that. Even the maids words did not mean as much as she was interpreting from them.

When Moon Jiwoo was about to walk towards her bedroom, the mentions of her and Sookyung's name reached into her ear. Curious about what it possibly could be about, she decided to listen in on it.

Maybe she should not have done that at that point. It could have lead her to do a decision she might regret later on, but the curiosity she had in that instant was too strong to worry about that.

Moon Jiwoo was concerned with public opinions really a lot in that moment. She wanted to know what everyone thought of her although she reminded herself to not care about it.

One of the maids said, ”That Shin Daerin is put into a really pitiful situation.”

”She was the one who got into it. It's not anyone's fault to begin with. These days his Majesty seems really close to Lee Eunmi-ssi, and let's be honest, there was no cases of a fated one being abandoned.

No matter how much his Majesty loves Shin Daerin, the position of Eunmi isn't something she can take.”

”I was really rooting for both of them. It was really nice to see such romance. His Majesty is trying really hard for Shin Daerin, but this entire thing to be more is impossible. I don't even know what Shin Daerin is hoping from this.”

”As much as it is good to be in a relationship with his Majesty, I would rather have freedom then he locked away in a palace with my life being endangered all the time. There is bȧrėly anything she is able to do, and in the end, this is not worth it. Imagine living your life being hid away.”

”That does sound displeasing, but the other party is the king. Someone like us won't even be able to imagine ourselves with his Majesty. This is something out of a fairy tale, but I really see no future with this.”

”What I think is Shin Daerin should be smart and break this off for once and all. In the end, it's obvious how she will be the abandoned one. Can't she see how close Lee Eunmi-ssi and his Majesty had grown to become over this period of time?”

”Thinking about it, you are actually right. I have seen them together the other day, and both of them actually look really good together.

Regardless of what the King's feeling is, it appears that both of them are really suitable for each other. Eunmi-ssi feels like a true Queen while Shin Daerin is just like a vase. She is more of a burden to his Majesty.”

”There is being talks about his Majesty giving up his position for her, and judging by how the things are going so far, that could truly happen. As much as romantic this is, this is disastrous! Imagine what would be happening to this world if he possibly gave up the throne.”

”Don't tell that's actually true! I have heard potentials thought of that happening, but there is no way that is true, right?

We recently just escaped from a large trouble couple of years ago, and we will be doomed if the King leaves us this time around. The Blue Clan will be destroying us for real.”

”What I think that Shin Daerin should be sensible and leave. That would be the best decision for this time. It's common for the Kings to have couple of Mistresses, but the love they have for each other is too dangerous.

You know the sacrifices the king is making for us, and this actually makes me think she could possibly bring our nation to downfall. I know that they are in love with each other, but love isn't everything.”
