Can I See You Again

This Love Will Only Make Us Suffer

At that time, Jun was sitting limply on the porch of his house. He really lost his spirit. A showdown with his unfinished lover makes him reluctant to move immediately. Plus, the news that the lover was picked up on a royal palanquin, ravaged his already messed up mind. Jun just kept flipping through the sheets of books he was opening. Unread, just kept playing.  

“What's up?” Madame Han came, patting her son's shoulder.

“She was taken to the palace,” replied Jun briefly. 

The mother, who saw the gloomy face of her son, immediately embraced the shoulder of her son. 

“Maybe the king already knows, the daughter of the state advisor is still alive. He might want to give you a decent life for Youra. For many years, the noble girl who should be happy, lived poor and suffered”.

Jun finally made peace with his bad thoughts. Maybe what his mother said was true. A little patience, and waiting for the right time, will soon put an end to this misunderstanding.

(In the queen's palace)

“No need to do your best, just carelessly enough. I must have been immediately kicked out of the contender's despicable man's wife”. 

Youra smiled cunningly, trying to surpass the limit of stupidity that she never had. Being stupid, the only way to be quickly eliminated. Youra walked slowly towards those beautifully carved wooden tables with rumbling hopes. Youra laid out a test answer paper that might be more like a blank canvas with ink stains. Really answered origin. 

His hand swung softly, very haughty, confident of being put away soon. However, just as he immediately put down the paper, a beautiful girl with his hopes was having a long dialogue.

“Hopefully, I'm the chosen one. Come on, please, get selected”. 

Youra turned to look at the voice coming from the beautiful girl. Hong Jin-Yi, expectant gazes plastered real as she put down her test paper. Seeing him, Youra got even more excited. This time his hopes will truly be realized. Get out, and go far. Yeah, that's right. Soon there will be a chosen girl. 

After all the girls had finished their exams, they were welcome to return home. Prepare for the announcement and the next exam.

Youra who had just arrived home, was silent and stiff to see Jun who was waiting for her there. Quickly he stepped into the house, so that Jun would not have to talk to him. He pulled Nana's hand to not talk to Jun as well.

“Youra, can you listen to me just once?”.

Youra did not care, even though Jun's face looked very regretful. However, again after repeatedly quarreling with his heart, Youra finally collapsed. 

“What's up?” ask Youa briefly.

“I didn't mean to lie to you about my father. I wanted to tell you from the beginning, but it seems that you really hate the palace relatives. I don't want you to reject me,” Jun said with his serious face.

Youra looked at Jun with her heart. After all, he really loved that man of his. 

Youra walked past the bowed Jun withered in spirit.

“I don't want to talk to anyone. I hope Brother Jun can understand,” Youra replied further breaking Jun's hopeful heart. 

Jun who realized his position, he was a professor in the country, with all the knowledge and academic intelligence he had, as well as a person who highly upholds norms and ethics, as well as the, trying to hold back at all costs. Not for his position, but for the sake of Youra, his future wife. He doesn't want his girl to get into trouble if he violates the norm. 

“Good. I'll take my leave first. Hopefully tomorrow, we can laugh together again like before”.

I'm sorry, Brother Jun..

At the palace, Princess Shin sat on the bed playing Jung Hyun's belt with a spoiled look. As an adult woman in general, she is very eager to be affectionate with the man she loves. However, reality ruins all the dreams that have been arranged. The difference in caste and palace rules, required him to continue to relent. 

Shortly after coolly imagining Jung Hyun nearby, a clear grain fell down from his eye fertilizers.

“However he ignored me,” sobbing, Princess Shin holds her face on both knees.

“Princess, you can't continue to be sad. Let not the king know this. Don't you love her so much? Wouldn't it be very dangerous if the king knew who the young man who made you cry like this?”.

Meanwhile, Jung Hyun sat leaning against the palace walls, bending his right knee. The right hand that was grasping the sword, he placed it on his knees. Smiling for so long touched his chest. Jung Hyun's shuffled teeth really sweetened his already very sweet face. He kept holding himself in a fantasy. Marrying the king's daughter was not his dream. However, if it was Princess Shin, she became very dreamy. The reality between them, the difference in status and his vow to the king, required him to forget his first love.

“Princess Shin, I must how..”. 

He who daritadi continued to touch his chest because it was so happy, finally plumped it with all his might. Trying to lie to feelings is the only way for both of them. There would be no hope of getting married, making Jung Hyun shed tears because of a woman.

“This love will make us both suffer”.

Any great man, any great knight, they still have a heart to feel love and broken.  Of course, Jung Hyun was very hurt. He closed his eyes for a moment after realizing the reality he was trying to lie to. He continued to drown himself in that empty hope.

Suddenly, the void turned into more pleasant. Right now, he was long daydreaming. Trying to piece together more about love or hate. Working for the king, spying on the Crown Prince why is it so painful for him. Until when, he had to lie about his feelings. How thought.

“Jung Hyun,” call Kasim Cho shake his daydream.

Jung Hyun turned to look at that cheerful face.

“Hm?” his reply.

“Your Majesty the King, agree to the Crown Prince's request. Finally, the Crown Prince will be getting married soon,” explained Kasim Cho with his happy face.

Jung Hyun who found out about this news, smiled cheerfully. However, a flashback of what had actually happened, made him reluctant to return smiling. If the king approves of that, it means that Youra will soon be betrothed by the infamous Crown Prince. Jung Hyun should not be happy about involving women who have been victims of cruel government. 

“Good,” the answer is short but meaningful.

Meanwhile, the roaring noisiness of the woman's voice was already raucous, clearly heard from the queen's palace. 

“STUPID!”.

The queen shouted full of anger in her residence. The well-appointed dinner dish in front of him, shattered apart afterwards. The beautiful evening silk dress that was attached to her body, was tightly knitted by her. 

“Why did the king approve of his foul plan?!”.

After shouting again, the queen looked very claustrophobic. This time instead of smashing the dinner dishes, he also kicked the tables that were lined up in front of him. The worried servants could only stay still on the spot, waiting for him to come to a realization immediately.

“That brash kid tried to brainwash his dad, I can't let all this. He should marry a woman who comes from the royal family. The woman I chose”.

The queen lifted her dress up high, immediately stepping out of her room to meet her husband. 

“Your Majesty the Queen, I beg you to be patient. Servant does not want the king to be angry with your attitude like this,” persuaded the servant to fear.

Queen Kim tried to let go of all her emotions that night as well, but her position was a bet. With all her might she tried to refrain from acting out of control.   

Suddenly another servant came and approached, bringing good news. It looks so clear from his face.

“Your Majesty the Queen, I think agreeing to the Crown Prince's wishes is not a problem. Until now, I have not gotten any more info about the girl's family. However, according to one of the stretcher-bearers, the girl had never attended a study at the education bureau, she had long lived at the foot of the mountain. Letting the Crown Prince marry such a woman, wouldn't it be better? I don't think this marriage will solve the problem. Even it will be even better, the people will be even more in disbelief,” said a servant who seemed to provoke more. 

The queen glared sharply at the servant, as if immediately pouncing on him. He approached and touched his servant's chin. Shortly after, the queen laughed.

“You really like to dirty my heart. Quickly go from here!”.

Shortly after the servant left, the queen sat on her bed. His gloomy face slowly turned peaceful with a rough gust of his breath. 

“All will be fine,” thought.
