The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl

To the surprise of Deanna and Rita, "Red Rose's Journey Schedule" took little time. Because the competent ladies were secretly preparing their tricks to keep Deanna from noticing.

"You've been set up by Kanton..."

"That's a level where you're going to fall into a bit of human mistrust..."

Apparently, everyone but Deanna and Rita understood that Deanna would accompany the king to the Temple of Mist. I wondered why the ladies who did not feel very comfortable with His Majesty the King, but when I asked them carefully, they came to the conclusion that the carriage to and from was completely different with the king and the red rose, and that between the two, if there were a bunch of carriages packed with luggage and travel tools, and the bedroom at night was naturally different, they would enjoy a comfortable journey, as the King's presence was unattainable.

"Ever since she entered the rear palace, Deanna has been moving around with no time to breathe. I was hoping you'd go away a little bit and change your mood. '

That's Lurie's dialogue. To words full of goodwill and care, Deanna could only smile 'thank you', taking care not to get her facial expressions tight.

Their thoughts are not wrong. If you are a very common aristocratic lady, such as traveling to strange lands, that is not the case, and occasional trips can be great entertainment. I have a daughter who tells me that I can't forget the beauty of the lake that I went out with my family at a very young age. If you tried to be the samurai, you would have thought it would be an irresistible opportunity to free Deanna from the hustle and bustle of the royal palace all the time.

The problem is - the act of being swayed by a carriage and traveling relaxed, for Deanna, doesn't seem like a mood change.

"If you fly a horse from Wang Du to the temple of Mist, you can get there in two days, even the streets are maintained. It's so much more fun to drive away than to go ahead with a carriage."

"It's a little cold for a long drive, though."

"If you stay cold, it's as hot as it gets. The only problem this time of year is the cold of the wind, right? You don't have to worry about the snow taking your legs off, so it won't take you five days in the carriage."

I say no, Deanna, but she loves to go away. Dualis spent most of the offseason visiting the territory because the Crestors have a good number of counts and territories, and until his social debut, Deanna frequently accompanied them.

Getting to a strange land is fun, and it's exciting to touch the culture and customs of that land you don't know....... but that is only a prerequisite that you are free to walk on your own. It's not a 'journey' for Deanna to just be elegantly rocked by a carriage and look out the window.

"Ten days of the descent festival is going to be a patience tournament..."

"Well... there's holla, why don't you just look out the gap and look around? There won't be that much protection."

"That's all you got.... Chris, if your sister-in-law is coming, I won't have a hard time getting out of security."

This time, Chris stays in the rear palace. Since they are only tasked with "keeping the rear palace safe", they cannot allocate so many personnel to "Red Rose" stand-alone items. A few people at once seem to arrive, but Chris is not in it.

"The only salvation is that Yuri and Luli will accompany us, right? The two of you will be working with me on an alibi."

"Though you two said you were sorry the other way around. Normally, when" The Red Rose "goes outside the royal palace, there can't be only three samurai attached."

"That's not their fault, is it? It's because of the shortage of people in the backyard, and I'm not the Queen. Instead, it's just a one-sided room, but I can't believe I'm being given such a role... I don't know what a great person would think."

"Though I understand the very reasoning that 'Red Rose' can't ignore the role she's supposed to play more than being in the backyard, even though it's just the shape."

"So come on, I'm going to ask you to recast the schematics for" The Queen "equals" The Red Rose ". At least not in the present rear house."

Deanna exhaled deeply and deeply.

"Mrs. Magnome was surprisingly a connoisseur... He knew I didn't like him, so he made it critical to explain it deliberately."

"If we talked about it in advance, they would have thought Deanna might be able to escape. It's a hit."

"You're not running away, are you? I can't turn that role around to anyone else, just try my best."

Broadly speaking, it also says it escapes. Around reading through her thought circuit, the boulders are acquaintances of Fione.

"If you think about it, it's a royal palace where people like you are all focused on pulling someone else's legs, and you're the one who was talked about as competent. He couldn't have just been serious."

"The handiwork, including Yuri and the others, was vivid so that we could only prepare well. Thanks to you, I don't believe in humans."

Rita pointing her mouth. Deanna gave up and laughed.

"If this happens, I can't help it anymore. Be prepared."

"That sounds like the only way."

"Rita, you'll be ready to travel, too, won't you? Enough for today. Stand back and get ready."

"Thank you. That's sweet of you."

Dropping off the nodding Rita, Deanna casually looked out the window.

"The Temple of Mist......"

It's just a place I've heard stories about and never been. The neighborhood is king territory, so it was difficult to get there even with patience.

I felt signs of people behind my back when I pulled the map out of the bookshelf between walls thinking about what kind of place to go and just a light preview.

"Studying from this hour?

"Kai, it's you... How long have you been here?

"Just now. It's unusual to have Deanna alone at this hour, isn't it, Rita?

Apparently, really, I just got here today. This free man is not alarmed because when he does bad, he doesn't leave this story behind.

"Rita's already down. Because I'm ready to travel."

"Travel? Rita, are you going somewhere?

I stared seriously at Kai's face. Sometimes it's unusual that this person doesn't understand what's going on in the backyard.

"... what?

"Yeah, it was just a surprise.... well, Kai doesn't know, which means that Master Liliane doesn't either."

"So what are you talking about?

"I'll be away from the rear house for a while, the day after tomorrow."

It is rarely worshippable, such as the way Kai rounds his eyes and complains. They were so unexpected.

"... what, I didn't hear that"

"I first found out this afternoon, too."

"Why Deanna?

As he is questioned, he tells how he was to take part in the royal ceremony held in the Temple of Mist, as the 'Acting Queen'. As he listened, Kai got somewhere, a grumpy look.

"Phew...... 'Worship' on the Lord's Day of the Coming Festival. Hey. Is that what this country does every year?

"Yeah, Kai's going to the temple on Sunday, right?

"I've never been there. Because I'm not an Armenian. It doesn't make sense where you prayed to God you don't even believe in, and it's annoying if you prayed."

"Uh, I see, that's the way you think...... But you know about the Evening Festival, don't you?

"Bye. I can't live in this country without knowing the noise at the end of the year. I like the festival itself, it's fun."

Cash is cash. Deanna chuckles.

"Right. We don't believe in God, either. I wonder what Sunday prayer might be like... as a believer, as a single citizen living in this country, I might feel like I'm participating."

"Sure. It feels more like a year-end event than a religious event. I know that... but isn't that a different matter from Deanna going to Mist?

The story came back to me. I shake my neck sideways, laughing bitterly.

"Even though I don't want to go aggressively. It's not even a story I can say no to, not even if it's Red Rose right now."

"If you don't like Deanna, I'll do something about it, okay?

I am Jen, who tells me that he has done terrible things. I'm also kind of scared to ask you what method you're going to 'do something'.

"Because it's not as bad as you hate it. The Temple of Mist itself is the first to go, and it's more of a pleasure"

"Oh, so the map?

"Yes, yes."

Looking at the map in her hand, Deanna lowered her eyebrow root slightly.

"I'm just not used to being rocked and moved by carriages, that's all. We're basically horses when we go away."

"What, you mean run away?

"That doesn't take the place, and it travels faster, does it? It's convenient because you can go anywhere you want."

"It's not a lady's dialogue to make..."

For once, I am aware of that.

"An ordinary lady would rather admire being able to travel gracefully in the finest carriage the royal family has to offer. If I had more time, I might have given it to Master Liliane."

"It doesn't taste good in many ways."

Kai looks slightly more serious and advises me.

"If that young lady finds out about this, it'll be rough again. Even recently, the number of samurai and female officers has decreased and you're in a bad mood. Isn't that why the new sheriff kept her mouth shut until she was critical?

"It's not just for Liliane. I think he kept his mouth shut to all the side rooms. Including me."

All I knew beforehand would be Mrs. Magnome and the 'Between the Red Roses' maid and lady officer, and a few others.

"Maybe you're going to talk to me after I leave."

"Then there's nothing more you can do.... a schemer, that guy"

Deanna's lips fall apart, feeling exactly the same as she did earlier. Kai, who noticed, asked with his gaze, deceived him, "Nothing".

"Well, I'd like to ask you about the rear palace, and I'll talk to the Rhias tomorrow."

"Ten days is pretty long. The previous chief lady has just seen a painful eye, and so far she doesn't seem to have the guts to think bad."

"During the descent festival, it seems that the rear palace will be busier than usual, so I'd appreciate it if Liliane's attention were taken down there, too"

"Well, it's simple, that guy."

To a single employer, the rhetoric is pretty awful.

"Say that much?

"Because it's simple. It's like no-touch where and what I'm doing if I just do my daily reports."

… then Kai will never arrive at the destination. Would Kai's impotence be a little better without himself being a double secret destination?

"Don't be too alarmed. Even that one's a nobleman. I don't know what you're thinking in your stomach."

"I know. Totally worrying, Deanna."

"Because Kai is impotent, right? Don't be riding into a dangerous place without me."

On the two sides of the conversation, the night went quietly further.
