“Gwangho Army, Nari!”

Yeonwoo swiftly moved her body to support Geon, who was about to collapse.

Even standing seemed challenging for Geon, who leaned on Yeonwoo’s body to barely maintain his balance.

He exhaled heavily.

“Nari! Pull yourself together, Nari!”

“Cough!”

The blood flowing from Geon’s mouth stained his front red, making Yeonwoo dizzy.

—Swish!

At that moment, an arrow flew from the same direction towards them. Geon, summoning the last of his strength, wielded his knife to deflect the arrow.

—Twang!

It was the final struggle to defend against the arrow with his injured body. Perhaps the next arrow would be unstoppable.

Another arrow followed.

—Swoosh!

Fortunately, the arrow missed both of them and lodged into the ground haphazardly. Luck was on their side this time.

However, since Yeonwoo and Geon were not in a condition for a proper fight, being targets of arrows was only a matter of time.

In Yeonwoo’s mind, a red warning flag fluttered.

‘I need to get out of here.’

The more desperate the situation, the more alert one needed to be. Their location was exposed to the assailants. Getting away was crucial for the safety of both Yeonwoo and Geon.

Since Geon was seriously injured, covering a long distance in this state was impractical. They needed a hiding place immediately.

Surveying the surroundings, Yeonwoo’s eyes fell on a tiger’s den.

Yeonwoo took out a smoke bomb she had brought for emergencies and threw it not far away.

The hazy smoke from the smoke bomb filled the surroundings, concealing the positions of both Yeonwoo and Geon.

Seizing the opportunity, Yeonwoo, crouching as low as possible in the smoke, supported Geon and moved towards the tiger’s den.

After entering the narrow gap at the entrance of the den, she quickly leaned Geon against the wall.

Geon, breathing heavily, seemed to have difficulty even opening his eyes.

Looking at the arrow embedded in Geon’s chest, Yeonwoo barely held back tears.

Using the hem of her clothes, Yeonwoo wiped the blood from Geon’s mouth and spoke.

“Nari! Are you okay?”

“Go…”

Geon’s lips, which fell heavily, let out a harsh metallic sound.

“They are targeting… me. If I’m with you… it’s dangerous.”

Being threatened by unknown assailants was not a new experience for Geon. This attack was an extension of those who targeted him.

But staying with him would make Yeonwoo an additional target.

Since they were only after his life, being away from Geon would be safer for Yeonwoo.

Geon couldn’t allow Yeonwoo to be endangered because of him.

However, when Geon told her to leave, Yeonwoo shook her head in response.

Her voice fluctuated irregularly, as if she might burst into tears at any moment.

“I can’t go. How can I leave Nari alone?”

Yeonwoo’s mind was in chaos.

Who was trying to harm Geon? Why? For what reason?

But there was no time to deeply ponder the identity of the assailants and their motives. She had to find a way to protect Geon from the assailants.

In the midst of this, Geon’s complexion became paler and paler.

“I’m… fine… so go.”

It was a lie. He didn’t look fine at all.

His face was losing color rapidly.

He needed treatment as soon as possible.

To do that, emergency first aid was necessary, and they needed medicinal herbs immediately. But outside, unidentified assailants lurked.

Leaving Geon alone would be feared for fear of assailants outside harming him. However, supporting Geon and going out would undoubtedly expose them to arrow attacks.

In a situation where nothing could be done, Yeonwoo wracked her brain.

‘Think. Figure it out, Hong Yeonwoo!’

At that moment, one thought crossed Yeonwoo’s mind.

Yeonwoo gulped down her saliva, then firmly grabbed Geon’s hand and earnestly pleaded.

“Nari, I will definitely come back. Don’t lose consciousness and endure.”
Geon, now seemingly devoid of strength to respond, closed his eyes and only gasped for breath.

At the moment when it seemed his breath might cease at any moment, Yeonwoo’s heart thumped anxiously. A faint strength entered Geon’s hand, which Yeonwoo had held momentarily.

As if responding to her words, Geon tightly grasped Yeonwoo’s hand. The warmth transmitted through his hand proved that he was still alive.

Yeonwoo, slightly relieved, held Geon’s hand carefully and spoke.

“You must endure. I promise to come back, so Nari, you must protect yourself.”

Yeonwoo solemnly uttered her reassurance and rose from her seat.

The hand she held slowly slipped away.

“Please don’t die.”

Yeonwoo recalled the masked men she encountered by the river when she bathed.

There was no evidence, but she had a gut feeling that today’s events were an extension of that day.

Who attacked Geon, and for what reason?

Their identities were unknown, but it was clear that Yeonwoo had to overcome them.

Strength surged into Yeonwoo’s hand gripping the bow.

‘I won’t leave you alone to die. I will definitely save Nari.’

With a determination, Yeonwoo moved towards the exit of the den.

From now on, she had to trust herself. There was no one to rely on.

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Synopsis:

“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”

Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.

While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the  Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
