Chapter 133

• Yi Hwan's POV
• The great hall of the palace was drizzled with every manner of colorful, fluttering streamers and soft silks, brilliant with golden lights from lanterns at every corner. Tonight was a celebrative night over the new Prince, now six months old. The king had decided to hold a banquet hosted in his name. Across the great ocean of internal courts, bordering countries had arrived—nameless faces hidden and known only by the titles they held.
• I looked at the visitors who were coming toward the entrance of the hall; all this while, I felt proud and content. Eun Kyung and I had worked hard to stand on this end, and now we were among friends, family, and allies. That was the time to really celebrate—times of boundless festivity.
