The Inner Palace Tale of a Villainess Noble Girl

gossip part 18 - descent festival in the absence of the side chamber head

A prayer group where the king's 'couple' carriage was attacked, 'red roses' went missing, hidden boys joined the 'Deanna' side unwittingly, and His Majesty finally realized the truth about 'red roses'. Behind it, the remnants of the rear palace were spending what could be described as the first "descent festival within the royal palace" in the history of the kingdom.

A descent festival just for the side chambers, where neither the king nor the 'Red Rose' are present. In the rear palace of the conspicuous absence of the nominee, the side chambers floating at the festival gather and nothing happens...... there is no wax.

Time rolls back five days ago, when Deanna and the others left the rear palace...

***************

The 'Daiju', waved by His Majesty the King to the rear palace, was not always received favourably by the women living in the rear palace.

Of course the 'Peony' rebelled, but a certain number of 'Red Roses' also existed, mainly those who were dissatisfied with the shortage of manpower and remarked that "nothing needed to be so harsh".

Deanna condoned them like that, "Personnel can always be replenished, but I guess Mrs. Maris' evil was only revealed now," and further made the Red Rose herself spoil herself to understaffed situations - originally there were only a minimum number of samurai in "Between the Red Roses" - to try to minimize dissatisfaction. Without any involvement in the case of the former chief woman, she stood tall no matter how much noise the rear palace fell into, and even had a cold smile to look at how things were going, she would have been the unshameless side-room head in the name of "Princess Rose of Ice Flames".

The noble courtiers, who loved rumors, turned their way around as they liked when Mrs. Magnome took office as the new chief woman and the rear palace settled there.

"It seems that the former chief woman was dismissed because she bought Red Rose's unhappiness in the first place" - the first rumor that flowed. It was a famous story of Mrs. Maris, who barely showed her face on a daily basis' Between the Red Roses' and instead sat 'Between the Peony', and it did not take that long until it was presumed that it would have handicapped the Red Rose's favor.

Or - "During the preparation of the Garden Games, the Red Rose noticed the injustice of the former Chief of Staff and was advanced to Her Majesty," etc., which is not incorrect in a certain sense, but there were some rather delightful rumors that the process between them was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. At a certain point in time, the former Chief of Staff was in an absolute state of obedience to the orders of the Red Rose, which he would also have guessed if he lived in the rear palace, which is superb in credibility.

Naturally, not only were such favorable rumors whispered, but also those that were painted and consolidated in bad faith. "The 'Red Rose' who used the former chief of state like a limb, but because the evil was felt in the outer chamber, she was cast out of the rear chamber with all her sins" theory is its representative athlete, but few believe the story that two people who had no connection at all in the rear chamber or in the social world before it were 'conspiring'.

It was also said that 'the Red Rose', who was blinded to the former chief woman who was defiant of herself, banished her by making up a sin that was not possible ', etc., but regardless of one former chief woman, they still account for the majority of those who think that they would have sinned more than this large number of women officers and samurai were disposed of at the same time.

And whether it is favorable or full of malice, it does not change the content of "The Red Rose Crushed the Former Chief of Staff" - moreover, there are stories of the Red Rose having a meaningful, soothing grin on the fierce ones who directly confirmed the consideration of the rumors, which eventually settled on the conclusion that "The Red Rose must not be turned against the enemy", it seems.

And she stayed, after the rumoured backyard...

"He said the Red Rose was accompanied to the royal prayer. That too... as a proxy for the Queen!

"This is Marika!

Shayla became a pocan before solidifying to that word, which Marika, the new American samurai, struck unhappy at the breakfast table.

"... what's wrong with that?

"Dear Shayla, what's wrong... alle?

"Did you know, was it?

"Yeah, because Your Majesty asked me a few days ago..."

The king's visit, though less frequent than before the season, was taking place slowly. The new chief of state also has a deep understanding of Shayla, and Ray and Marika are accommodating samurai, who, knowing that Shayla is currently the only sideroom going to the king, moves to keep a bad wave from standing in the rear palace.

Especially since Marika is working at the Royal Palace for the first time, or she works hard to help Shayla, the 'Lord'.

"Right now, the highest place in this rear palace is" Red Rose, "isn't it? It is only natural that he should be chosen to represent the Queen."

"Well, maybe they are. But even though Master Shayla is here, I can't believe she's representing the Queen!

"I'm not making a scene like that. First of all, disrespect the Red Rose.... Whatever your Majesty's heart is, it is an unquestionable fact that the Red Rose is at the head of the great side chamber, dedicated to the rear palace"

"... that's what I always say, Master Shayla. You're in charge, I mean, aren't you fooled?

"Come on, Marika!

Marika, who is not afraid, always says what she wants to say. And it was the flow of conversation in this room that has settled here recently, angry and pungent with Ray without punishment.

I'm just not reluctant with Marika's words, but I'm not poisoned either.

Therefore Shayla could not be hurt by her words.

"I, the Red Rose, have never spoken to you more than to deceive you, have I? I don't think I'll ever get a chance to look at you in the first place. The fact that the Red Rose is a wonderful person is that I'm just taking it personally"

"So I wonder how you can admire such a horrible person so much."

"... Deanna is that scared?

When I spoke of what I had been wondering for a long time, I pounded open to Ray's mouth as well as Marika's. That reaction is unexpected for Shayla.

"Huh? 'Cause while it does fill you with majesty, you don't unreasonably harm others like Peony, but rather, you're the kind of person who puts' Red Roses' together and protects the weak side room of your position, like me? Be kind and kind, and sacrifice yourself without hesitation to protect someone...... Respect such a person is the only way, where do you need to be afraid?

"I mean, Sole, who are you talking about..."

Marika was apparently, through amazement, exhausted.

"My house is like barely hanging on the edge of a nobleman, but even in my home like that, I heard the notoriety of the 'Crestor family'. You're cowering the evil of the kingdom, the emperor of the back society, right?

"I'm sure they're not decent aristocrats. Among the aristocrats, those who worked evil and were punished seem to have dated the Krester family in a significant proportion, and there are many stories where those who unknowingly became involved with the poor world heard the Krester family's name."

To what the samurai say, I tilt my neck, even if I know it.

"Though I've heard rumors like that, too"

"It's not a rumor. It's a clean fact on the record of the conciliation bureau."

"Mr. Ray, are you familiar with the records of the conciliation bureau?

"My father works for the conciliation bureau. That's why, Master Shayla, it's better not to get too involved with the Red Rose."

A conciliation bureau is a special institution, even in the outer court, that mainly arbitrates rubbing, disputes between nobles and controls noble crimes. It is also common sense among the nobles that, if it is noted in the conciliation bureau, the fact is beyond question.

Shayla knew that too, but I wasn't really convinced, so I honestly didn't feel like nodding.

"... Whatever happens to your parents, it's only one ingredient to judge Deanna herself. In fact, I asked Deanna to help me."

"We are told that the matter has only moved so that the 'Peony' does not steal the rumoured Shayla that she is under His Majesty's patronage"

"Did Deanna herself say that?

"... I don't know that much."

"Then you won't know if the story is true until you know for sure, Deanna."

"No way, are you going to direct your judgment to Red Rose!?

Ray's, Marika's worried, I don't even know. If Deanna is really the bad guy as rumored, going to her is like going to missouri poison fangs. I am whispered every day by King Juke that I "like" him, because he would be uninteresting to Deanna, no, to all the side chambers in the backhouse.

But Shayla wanted to believe it. About Deanna - and I felt honest in Deanna's eyes, myself.

I didn't want to regret being confused by rumors and positions and running away with a lid in my heart.

"If the Red Rose... Deanna returns from worship. I'm going to say hello. I just have a new year's Evening Club. If you speak to Deanna from me on that occasion, it won't be disrespectful."

"Please wait. Talk to the Red Rose in such a public place, and there is a risk that Shayla will be misunderstood as being under the control of the Red Rose."

"It's not domination, it's asylum. Besides, Deanna, who is at the head of the side chamber, deserves to have me at the end of the line. Instead, you should be ashamed of me for not thanking me for being so protected."

A lot's happened, it's late... but Shayla felt like she was going to be able to face Deanna this time, feeling upright.

You felt such a determination on her part that Ray and Marika would not eat down any more, but move out to clean up the empty plates.

Exactly at that time, the door rang.

"Dear Shayla. May I have a moment?"

"Master Riddill?

The voices I've heard belong to people I know well.

As Shayla rises, Ray opens the door. What noble things do not exist during the continuation, because the room given to the side chamber at the end was given to a female official who was formerly exclusive to the rear palace. It's a cozy room with a bed, a small vanity, a costume case, a table and a set of chairs.

As a result, as soon as the door opened, Shayla was to meet the guest face-to-face.

"Good morning, Master Shayla"

"Have you had breakfast?

"Dear Lidil, Dear Nasha...... what is it?

Beyond the door were Baroness Lidil Ernest and Baroness Nasha Crockett, who, at the same time as Shayla, came from the house of emerging aristocrats as well. Even after Shayla's "pet princess issue" rises, she remains unchanged and friendly, also a rare being.

"Oh, Master Shayla! You haven't changed yet?

"Huh? It's my usual everyday wear..."

"Well. Have you forgotten, Master Shayla, that it's the Descent Festival (Les Armeni Assuto) starting today?

Lydil and Nasha are being talked into on their behalf, and as Shayla, I can only be flattered.

Behind the room, "Speaking of which," Marika hit her hand.

"I forgot to tell you that I've been opening stores in the courtyard for ten days, except for the main day?

"... you haven't heard."

"Oh, I'm sorry!

"I'm sorry, Master Shayla"

Ray also bows his head after Marika. If you listen carefully, it seems that the samurai with each room had been notified to explain the event of the descent festival to the side room in charge on the morning of the first day of the main day.

That even the unplugged Ray regarding the work of the samurai had fallen out on the matter would have been a shock to them that 'the matter of the Red Rose fitting into the Acting Queen'.

"Well, then, Master Shayla, please hurry up and help me."

"I didn't expect you to enjoy the opening of the Descent Festival in the Back Palace! Of course it's in the royal palace, so it won't be as busy as it is in the king's capital."

"I appreciate the invitation... because you would be offended if someone like me showed your face"

One incident at the Red Rose Salon, through the behavior of her uncle and aunt at the park games, Shayla is light and out in public is traumatic. An upper-place side chamber is an honest mood that you don't want to face.

Nasha laughed at you for guessing how Shayla felt like that.

"Dear Shayla, I won't stand up that well. Anyway, because 'ladies' like Peony and Sophia will have an aristocratic descent festival in each salon. Mrs. Magnome prepared the courtyard store for a side room close to ordinary people like us. There's no one there to attack Master Shayla."

"... yes, is it?

"The story of everyone in the samurai says that the 'peony' lady who heard about the courtyard laughed with her nose. Dear Shayla, I've been tired a lot lately, and I hope you enjoy the festivities."

Probably triggered by a garden tournament, the backyard turned into a major storm. Shayla's 'parents' attitude at the park fair was perfectly sumptuous due to a case of fraudulent discovery by the former chief woman, and she was spared from being shaken out between the side chambers, but that doesn't mean there was no action between them.

Shayla also meant caution, and for some time now, she avoided walking in the hallway with dignity. Once every few days, I stole Ray and Marika's eyes, and that's about where I went to meet Dee.

Apparently for Dee, who is also a side room at the end, the storm in the rear palace was completely other HR, and Dee was more blurry when he occasionally went to the rendezvous point. They wear samurai attire at all times because they simply don't want to stand out.

gossip, that's why Lydill and Nasha seemed to care about Shayla, who would have publicly pulled off.

"... right. It's a descent festival because of it. If you don't enjoy it, you lose it."

"That's what I have to do!

"Ray, Marika, you're going out for a minute."

"Before you do, it's a festival, albeit in the rear palace, so congratulations."

I know on my own. How dare you, Lydill and Nasha enter the room and take the dress out of the costume case.

"How about this?

Face to face, the girls laugh.

- The descent festival has begun.
