I Was Born As The Kings Daughter Chapter 23 (1/2)
CHAPTER 23: So Fishy About This
What was he doing here? I’d wonder about that later I bounded to him
“Daddy!” Every ounce of e me I was truly terrified—this wasn’t an affection (T/n: reaaally? Or is Sang-Hee turning into a tsundere :>)
I clung to his leg He looked down on aze Can’t you at least suhter alht—in a musuem! Alas, he remained completely placid
The old blob frowned and said, “Who do you think you are?”
“I’ said smoothly
In a flash, several dozen knights, the elite corps of the Goryeo Kingdouards called the Special Knights, were specially trained for hand to hand corand-scale warfate They were e, and assassination That was the extent of e I knew they were the 1st battalion of THE Goryeo Kingdohts
“Oh…I should have ”(A/n: lololol, its like being a king is an afterthought xD)
“Wha…”
“These knights are underascratched his head then He looked scruffy because he had on actual clothes I wanted to scold hi fishy about this It was undoubtedly the King Still, dozens of the Special Knights did not materialize unless the situation warranted it Their presence itself was significant The King looked bored, as if he was ignorant of the nitude of their presence, he looked as if he just happened to have been interrupted during a stroll around the neighborhood
“Bring the museum director”
“Yes, Your Majesty”
Soain with the musuem director
He asked, “Who owns this museum?”
“A friend and I own it”
“I’d like to buy it”
“What?”
“Not the scrolls, the building I’ll offer you double the market price”
Making the director dumbfounded by the offer
Twice the market price? Father, yu want to be a real estate investor now?
The King approached thetapped his own head with the man’s hand
He then said unenthusiastically as if reading a script, “All of you are witnesses This ! Immediately suspend the circulation of cultural artifacts here I now declare this a prison, and you are hereby sentenced”
“There was an acknowledged need to expand the prisons anyway, and this reat location”
“It is large enough and has good security But there’sthe probleet”
“I guess His Majesty will personally bear the expense”
It was irrational that a King would personally pay with his own pocket to build a prison rather than using the public funds There was no co would need to pay any money at all
The King said, “Saiy its a tax”
Alex nodded, as if this all made perfect sense
“Fro will be rebuilt as a prison This man will be the first prisoner”
This was all a ruse nobody would atte in the presence of the Special Knights
“So will you sell it or not?”
“I’ll sell it”
Theto suppress his elation He had just struck it rich The museum was in an inconvenient location, far froe building was astrono had blown a huge sum
He’s no fool, so ould he do this? (T/n: oh he’s just a passing-by King, looking homey with his slippers, he definitely didn’t rush frohter only to see a pedo touching her, thus he just didn’t give any fcks and now that guy is arrested for ‘atte)
A few one speechless Soical abilities overpowered his, had wrested control of the ragdoll with a co had arrived
“Father Do you want to play a fetch too?”
It hit Hwan-Seong, “My Mutt is in danger!”
“Wait here”
After the King left, Hwan-Seong wondered aloud, “What’s going on?”
Gitae’s world was being overturned It was unheard of for a prince to worry that a princess was in danger Each surprise was greater than the next as he accompanied the prince and the princess
The King ordered, “You two stay here”
“What is father doing?” Hwan-Seong asked
Alex explained, “He’s planning to make a dramatic entrance”
He’s playing the role of a here rescuing the dah
The scholars nodded, “He’s using this as an excuse to turn this place into a prison”
“Yes, now an assassination atte, he has a justification for taking the property he’s had an eye on for a while now”
The King had staged a threat on his expendable daughter deliberately to turn the museum into a prison
