“I heard that SeoMoon declared war on Yeon. Have you heard anything about it, my lady?”

The old woman asked as she took the medicinal herbs. MoonWon shook her head.

“What would I know?”

“I was just wondering if the guest who visited you a few days ago had told you anything. Well, I guess that makes sense. You’re in a similar circumstance to us, so I can’t say anything… Aigoo.”

When MoonWon first came here, she told the villagers a brief summary of what had happened to her. She told them she was from a noble family, but the family had collapsed, and she alone had managed to survive. She bowed to them and asked them to just provide her some land on which to settle down. At first, the villagers were uneasy, but when they saw how she approached them first and bowed, they gradually opened their hearts.

“If a war begins, then the ones in rural areas like us will be the ones to suffer. A merchant stopped by from the capital, and he told us that all the nobles had already fled. Evil bastards.”

MoonWon bit her lips when she heard the news. When her face darkened, Hong-yeom stepped forward from behind her.

“Because the weather is so cold, it will be difficult for them to progress far with the war. All we can do is hope that it settles down soon.”

“I agree. Ah! I’ve given you a bit more for the medicinal herbs since they’re good quality, so please take it.”

“You don’t have to do that…”

“I receive a lot of help from you because you know how to read, my lady. And you handed out all those things to us last time. I’m still using it well. Just take it and pretend I didn’t give you more than usual.”

MoonWon declined and tried to refuse the extra money, but the old woman merely shoved the money into MoonWon’s hand and ran back into her store.

“I’m giving it to you so just take it.”

Although she was a noble, MoonWon always approached them first with a humble attitude. She never expected more than what she was given. Because of this, she received help from the villagers and managed to survive in the dangerous terrains of Yeon. However, desires began to slowly creep back.

“Everyone is having a hard time. It wouldn’t be right to take more just because I want the comfort.”

As more time passed since she had last left the bamboo grove, her old self was slowly returning.

“Let’s head back for now. Yeori is waiting.”

When MoonWon turned around, Hong-yeom followed behind her. MoonWon smiled and lowered her head in greeting at the people who greeted them, but the only thought in her mind was Doyoon’s words.

‘Heon was against it, but the Emperor and the Crown Prince thought differently.’

Just as the rumors said, SeoMoon had declared war on Yeon, and the towns along the border like this one would not be able to escape the consequences. She had just begun to settle down, but it seemed that they would have to move once again.

‘Where should we go this time?’

However, before she decided on a location, the actual act of moving would be difficult. Winter would come in full force in a few weeks’ time.

Yeon was known for its brutally cold winters, so moving to another country, no, moving to another town would be near impossible.

“I think we should move in the spring.”

Although they weren’t on the run from having committed a crime, she couldn’t help but feel dread whenever people from SeoMoon came looking for her.

It had begun ever since she’d left the bamboo grove.

For some reason, she felt sorry towards Hong-yeom and Yeori.

“I keep making you two suffer every time…”

“If we thought we were suffering, we would have left by now.”

His self-possessed answer caused MoonWon to lower her eyes apologetically. As they walked through the crowd, MoonWon stopped in front of a woman selling snacks.

Hong-yeom stopped behind her as if this was nothing new.

“Are you thinking of getting something for Yeori?”

“Yeah.”

At first, MoonWon treated Yeori as if she didn’t want her there. But now, it seemed that all the resentment had faded away a long time ago.

Yeori had bowed down at Hong-yeom’s venomous accusations, but she continued to take great care of MoonWon more than anyone.

When they had both caught a terrible cold, she always put MoonWon first and nursed her through the night without sleep. She never took care of herself and always made MoonWon her top priority.

Consort Yeong followed the man leading the way. When she came across the magnificent view, she gasped in awe.

But that only lasted a moment. Consort Yeong bowed when she was guided to the front of a long pavilion.

“I apologize for my lateness, my lord.”

When she did not hear a response, Consort Yeong knelt down to the side. Although she was a maiden who directly served the Emperor, right now, she could not hold up her head.

“When His Majesty got ahold of the evidence from the royal physician that proved the Consort was adding an aphrodisiac to his medicine, he became enraged. He ordered her to be confined to her palace, and she hasn’t been able to take a step outside.”

“The Consort was merely confined?”

When she heard Heon’s cold, deep voice, Consort Yeong lowered herself even more.

“Court Lady Yeo and even the maids who serve them have been completely quarantined. Currently, the eunuchs we have planted inside are keeping an eye on her.”

Heon’s lips stretched into a smile when he heard Consort Yeong’s report.

Consort Yu’s foundation of support had originated from the Emperor’s overwhelming favor.

He should have taken away her authority and isolated her a long time ago. But he ended up accomplishing it three years after MoonWon had left.

Having lost the Emperor’s favor, the Consort could have used other methods to get what she wanted, but once Heon made his move, it would all be for naught.

“And His Highness the Crown Prince received a harsh scolding from His Majesty. At first, His Highness merely listened. But then he began to raise his voice, and it ended with both of them shouting at each other.”

Hearing these words, Heon looked out into the panoramic landscape.

He hadn’t come here to enjoy the view. Although his eyes looked distant, the gears in his mind were turning.

“Are you going to raise the second prince to become the crown prince?”

The peaceful atmosphere suddenly grew tense. Startled, Consort Yeong crouched down and lowered her head.

Born into a lowly family, this poor maiden had been sent to become a consort of the Palace. And the one who had done this was Heon. In exchange for becoming his eyes and ears, she was given a luxurious life.

Although she hadn’t told him that the aphrodisiac was bringing the Emperor great pain, Heon had already prepared for it. Consort Yeong bowed even more deeply as her eyes trembled.

Consort Yeong gasped without realizing it. The plans she had set in motion had been revealed.

Consort Yeong fell to the ground and pressed her head to the ground. The moment Heon realized she had stepped out of line, she’d have to give up her life.

Before she could make a plea, two men came and stood at her side. Consort Yeong staggered to her feet and stared at Heon’s feet with terrified eyes. Then she lowered herself into another deep bow and followed the men out.

Once her presence had completely disappeared, Junghwan approached Heon and bowed.

“I received word that the duke and Lady SoHee have arrived at the main residence.”

Leaning against the pavilion wall, Heon pressed his brow with his finger. It was obvious why they had come, and he had no reason to meet with them.

The branch residence was located at the hot springs. Even Junghwan was not allowed to enter as he pleased. Whenever Heon wanted to rest for a bit, he always went to the branch residence.

In the past three years, he had only found exactly one trace of MoonWon’s whereabouts.

Despite the torrential rainfall, Heon didn’t sleep that night as he urged his horse to go faster. The man from the countryside had taken a look at MoonWon’s portrait and claimed that he had seen her.

His blood ran dry, and his heart raced. He had run into numerous dead ends, and he did not want to miss this chance.

As soon as he entered inside, Heon’s eyes hardened as he looked around the shabby village.

The houses were incredibly old, and it seemed like they would collapse at the slightest gale of wind. They were houses in name only.

“It’s the house up on that hill over there.”

MoonWon’s house was even shabbier and dirtier than the ones he’d seen in the village. How could she have lived in a place like this? He felt as if his blood was flowing in the opposite direction due to the distress.

This had been the closest he’d ever gotten. He couldn’t miss this chance. As soon as he entered inside, a middle-aged woman sat up with much difficulty.

The man followed Heon inside and helped the woman up as he asked.

“Didn’t I tell you to keep a good eye on them?”

“I told them it wasn’t anything serious and managed to keep them in here at first. But they’re quite observant and caught on quickly. They held a dagger to my throat, so how could I hold onto them?! At least I had the men stationed outside, so I thought it was going to be okay. But the lady’s skills with a bow and arrow were incredible. Before the men could defend themselves, they all fell.”

The woman glanced up at Heon and spoke in a dejected voice.

When Heon heard what she said, he went back outside to the groaning men. He could see that something sharp had grazed their bodies.

“Now that a year has passed, couldn’t you have at least given me a chance?”

Even through the torrential rain, he could see traces of her on an arrow that had lodged itself into the wooden fence.

After she had left, Heon hadn’t forgotten her for a single moment. No matter what, he needed to see her. Even if he had to search for her for the rest of his life, he didn’t plan on letting her go.

Worried about Heon, Junghwan approached him.

How foolish. He hadn’t been able to protect a single thing MoonWon had wished for. Heon knew he did not have any right to search for her, but all he could do was blindly cling onto her.

MoonWon dipped her feet in the warm water and smiled at him. Even though he knew it was a hallucination, Heon stretched out his hand.

“I would not dislike this marriage.”

In a marriage that she felt belonged to her, another woman had suddenly interfered.

Although it was a woman’s duty to marry into a household her family had chosen for her, she couldn’t help but feel angry and upset. And when she met his bride at the Palace for the very first time… she barely managed to suppress the anger that threatened to boil over. The woman was a disappointment.

She wasn’t beautiful nor did she have any feminine modesty. How could this woman be the bride of the Chief Commander? She couldn’t understand.

As late autumn departed, the bitter cold of winter arrived.

After a brief moment of peace, the nation of SeoMoon declared war on Yeon.

“Moving troops in this winter would needlessly put their lives on the line. Please show some mercy and give us permission to move in the spring.”

Heon personally lowered his head, but neither the Emperor nor the duke said anything. Seeing their reaction, Heon’s brow slightly twitched.

“How can SeoMoon’s soldiers fall just because of the weather? We cannot sit by and do nothing after what Yeon has done to us. We must take this opportunity to pull them out by the root. That way, they will not bare their teeth at SeoMoon again.”

Having attended the meeting today, the Emperor cut Heon off. The other men murmured when they heard the Emperor’s resolute remark. One of the men glanced at Heon’s complexion and lowered his head.

“I heard that the winters in Yeon are a lot worse than the ones in SeoMoon. If our soldiers are harmed due to the bitter cold, it may give a chance for the other countries to attack us. Please consider the Chief Commander’s plea and reconsider.”

“Your Majesty, we do not think it would be proper for the duke to be promoted to the position of prime minister. Although Lee Moon did commit a crime and stepped down, he has remained loyal to SeoMoon for a long time. We cannot let the duke become the prime minister, Your Majesty.”

The topic of the war with Yeon completely disappeared. Followers of the duke argued against the information given by those who were protesting, and those who were against the duke’s promotion continued to say that the duke mustn’t be promoted.
