SNF | Chapter 4.5
Yeon-oh turned to see Yeshin approaching with a faint smile. His expression stiffened slightly. Having declared just yesterday that they should sever ties, this unexpected encounter only made him uncomfortable. “With a prince as lively as that, I can see why.” Yeshin spoke as if he completely understood Yeon-oh’s weariness. Yeon-oh forced himself to smooth his expression, barely managing to suppress his discomfort. “…I’m not sure whether you’re neglecting your duties or if you simply…-

SNF | Chapter 4.4
The prince was sulking, and Yeon-oh was not the type to initiate conversation. Moreover, he wasn’t warm enough to go out of his way to be affectionate toward his nephew, especially after such an unpleasant first encounter. “Uncle, do you like my sister more?” In the end, it was the prince who broke the long silence. His cheeks were still puffed out in a pout as he directed his question at Yeon-oh. Do you like the princess more? This was not a simple matter of preference. The princess had been…-

SNF | Chapter 4.3
In the end, Yeon-oh took the initiative. Though they were his nephew and niece by blood, they were still members of the Imperial Family. He had to observe proper etiquette. Yeon-oh’s formal greeting made the Princess bow awkwardly in return, while the Prince simply stared up at him with wide eyes. “Prince, Princess, your uncle just greeted you.” The strange standoff continued until the Empress stepped in. Only then did the princess, as if making a big decision, swallow hard and take a bold…-

SNF | Chapter 4.2
Yeshin, as he had confidently claimed, was indeed a good guide. He explained every nook and cranny of the main street in an interesting way, making it seem like he knew every path by heart. There wasn’t a single moment of awkward silence between them—he kept talking without pause, so much so that Yeon-oh found himself worrying whether he would end up parched from speaking too much. As they strolled through the streets like explorers, a bell rang out, loud and far-reaching. It was the second time…-

SNF | Chapter 4.1
“By the way, where exactly are we going?” Yeon-oh subtly pulled his hand away, feeling awkward. He should have asked this earlier, but for some reason, it was only now that the question came to mind. “Now you’re curious?” Yeshin turned back with an amused expression. “Didn’t I say I’d take you on a tour of the Capital City?” “……” “And after seeing you today, I thought that walking around Capital City might not be such a bad idea.” “How do I look that made you…-

SNF | Chapter 3.4
Now that he understood most of the situation, this was the part Yeon-oh couldn’t comprehend. The Hye family had already gained enough glory by supporting the emperor’s rise to the throne. Even now, they enjoyed more prestige than any other noble house. No other jehu family could match their influence. So why insist on entangling themselves in the imperial succession? “You’re right. Centuries of prosperity do not simply fade away.” “And yet, under His Majesty’s protection, you would…-

SNF | Chapter 3.3
Having fully removed his court attire, the Prime Minister donned a more comfortable golden robe appropriate for his residence. Only then did he take a seat across from Yeon-oh, at which point a servant silently stepped forward and placed a tea set on the table. “Now that I think about it, Yeonseo once mentioned that your tea-brewing skills are quite remarkable. What do you say, Yeon-oh? Would you show this father of yours your skills?” “I am lacking, but I will do my best.” Yeon-oh pulled…-

Tracing his fingers lightly over the paper, Yeon-oh reached for his brush. For a brief moment, he pushed aside the thought that Hanam had turned its back on the Crown Prince and chosen the prince. He disregarded the fact that Yeshin, the one who sent this letter, was part of Uigwi, a division directly under the Crown Prince’s Office. His gaze drifted toward the camellia flowers drying by the window. Only after taking in their sight did he finally move his hand. Ink filled the blank paper in slow,…-

SNF | Chapter 3.1
As soon as Yeon-oh returned home, he had to attend the banquet without delay. After what could be considered a long banquet, Hye Yeonseo and her husband, Tae Ikhan, left immediately. As the third son of the Lord of Sanseo, Tae Ikhan was a better person than expected. Of course, there was no way to know his true intentions, but at least on the surface, he was good enough to understand why the Prime Minister had arranged his marriage with Hye Yeonseo. He was gentle and cheerful. Throughout the banquet,…-

From the intruder in the garden to this man here—just how many times did he have to ask before someone would give him a straight answer? Yeon-oh frowned. Tilting his head slightly, he waited for a response. The man met his gaze and studied him. “Well… This is my first time seeing your face directly, so there’s no way you’d know me.” “You know who he is, and yet you talk down to him?” “Hasung.” Yeon-oh cut off Hasung, who was about to snap in outrage at the man’s continued…-
