DAECHWITA (Min Yoongi FF)

Daechwita. Cast : Kim Jang Mi, Min Yoon Gi - "Young lady!" I tried to heed the call from Ahra calling me from outside my room. She should have known I hated it the most when someone interrupted my reading time. "Young lady, the eldest prince has summoned all his daughters to gather in the main hall." Hearing the name Ahra spoke of, I also closed my book and decided to end my reading activities because if it was my father who called then surely this is an important thing. - “I am Hwang Yoo-il here to deliver the edict that was issued by the Great King. The King has received a letter sent on behalf of Prince Jeongmin. With all generosity he decided to award the wedding for Prince Jeongmin's second daughter, who is known not only for her good looks but also for her intelligence and generosity with General General Min Yoon Gi. A young general who has done many services to protect this kingdom. A good day has been set a month from now, the group can leave for the south of the capital where Min's residence is on the day of the wedding, that's all." When the person who was the order of the King from our residence left, there was an uproar in our family. My father who looked happy, and my mother who tried to persuade my father to cancel the marriage, Madam Hong who seemed satisfied with the king's edict as well as my other two sisters Somi and Bomi. "My Husband, how could you have the heart to send my little daughter to marry the Demon General? Why don't you discuss with me first about this matchmaking? There are still many other nobles" “My wife! Your daughter is already Nineteen years old. The perfect age for marriage. She is the daughter that I love and love the most, that's why I begged the King directly for her matchmaking just like Sungmi and Taehyung's marriage. The Min family is a noble family. Even the current Queen and the previous Queen belonged to the same Min family as the great general. The Great General's family lineage is not from an arbitrary family, for three generations the Great Queen had always come from the noble Min family and it has become an unwritten condition considered by the royal court of honor in the selection of candidates for the crown princess, including in the selection of the queen mother, because of that, even though my mother gave birth to the first son for aba-mama, but she was not crowned the crown princess because she was not from the Min clan, even General Min is the grandson of the Queen's nephew and biological nephew and also the late Crown Princess, Imagine if our daughter had General Min's child, especially if it was a girl then it will open up opportunities for our grandchildren to become queens in the future. Having a son-in-law of General Min is an honor. " "But my husband," "A husband like that deserves a strange girl like her." “Concubine Hong, watch your words! General Min is the Son of MY FRIENDS! " Dad's yell was enough to shut her mouth. From Taehyung orabeoni's story, General Min's late father was my father's best friend since childhood because they studied at the same teacher, namely Teacher Jung, the grandfather of Hoseok's Brother-in-law. Madam Hong disliked my mother's children from the start, especially myself Because according to Taehyung orabeoni, my premature birth shifted Bomi's position, who should have been the third child in this family. Moreover, I always managed to beat Bomi in everything. Because of that, my father loved me even more. “Mother, it's okay. If this is the King's decree then I will accept it. Going against the king's orders is treason and I don't want to do it. I'm sure I'll be fine. If I could endure living with Madam Hong's two annoying daughters all this time, then I can definitely endure him. ” "You girls don't know at-" “CONCUBINE HONG! YOU TOUCH MY DAUGHTER THEN I WILL MAKE SURE YOU ARE BEG ON THE STREET! " "My lord." - The palanquin that took me to the Min family residence entered the pine forest which was quite dense. The spring that is greeting the land of this country makes the scenery of this forest even more beautiful. I've heard about Lord Min's family who decided to stay a little further away from the capital but honestly I did not expect if they build their residence in the forest like this. “Ahra-ya, what do you think General Min is like? ” I asked Ahra who was walking beside my path. As my lady-in- waiting, of course she will always be with me. “According to the news from the eldest prince's bodyguard who worked for General Min a year ago, He is still 23 years old but he already had a lot of achievement in war, He has a beautiful face but his eyes seem ready to kill. He is proficient in swordsmanship, horse riding, archery, poetry, playing music, painting, and also likes to spend his time reading books in his collection. He has broad insight into many things. However, there is something strange about him, even though the level of his aristocratic status allows him to have a concubine, but until now he never visited a brothel or sought a concubine. Hearing Ahra's explanation, somehow I could imagine the figure of General Min who had a face that looked stern and full of mystery but also looked dignified. "Broadly speaking, General Min is the ideal husband figure for you, miss. It's just that there is a growing rumor that he is not interested in women because he is always with his right hand all the time who is named Jimin." I who heard that could only shake my head. Honestly I don't mind someone's s****l orientation, especially if it's just hearsay. Taehyung Orabeoni often spends time with Namjoon Orabeoni, but the proof is that now he has a wife and two handsome and beautiful twins. Moreover, not showing an attraction to the opposite s*x does not mean that he has a deviant s****l orientation, right? I myself have never been interested in men, even though some of the noble children who had intended to propose to me were quite handsome. "He's a general, I guess clichéd romance is not the main thing on his mind." "That is true. Ah, I heard from the General's envoy last night Hwarot that you are wearing now and your wedding rings was the property of the late General Min's mother whom he had been keeping. For a man especially someone with the title Demon General he has a sentimental side too. ” This information is nothing new to me because last night Taehyung orabeoni had told me about how General Min respected his mother and father so much, how sad he was when he had to lose both of them, and how hard he tried to get up and continue his father's struggle as a general. "Yo lil'sis, here we are." The stretcher that carried me stopped and the figure of Taehyung orabeoni appeared from behind the sliding door of the stretcher. With the help of Ahra and Taehyung orabeoni I got out of the stretcher with a little difficulty because of the weight of the clothes I was wearing. “I really did not think that my little sister would soon become the wife of a general. Ah, finally that cold man got married too. Who would have thought that he would be my brother-in-law. I thought you were going to marry Lord Song's son, Yunhyeong." I can only roll my eyes to hear his words. Married him? BIG NO. "And share love with his four wives? orabeoni, if I can still get a smooth cucumber, why accept a cucumber that has rubbed its surface? live with Mrs. Hong for seventeen years It's enough to stress me out, why do I have to repeat the same thing? " End Jangmi PoV - Yoongi PoV The hustle and bustle sound clear this morning at my residence. The usual calm atmosphere has now been replaced by the busy sound of workers in my residence who are preparing for my wedding preparations today. Yes, finally today i will married the girl chosen by the Great King as a gift from him for my achievements so far. Especially in conquering Silla and reaching a peace agreement with Baekje. "Yoongi hyeong, the bride's entourage has arrived." “Is it true?” “nde hyeong-nim. Prospective sister-in-law looks beautiful with your mother's Hwarot. Like a goddess who descended from the sky.” Hearing these words from Jimin, I just smiled a little. Remembering the king's choice of girl is Taehyung's younger sister, it's not new if she has a good-looking face. “I haven't seen her in six months and I can honestly say that she's getting prettier. Isn't this unfair? The whole Taehyung family is blessed with a beautiful face. “Now it's Kim Namjoon's turn to say something like Jimin. "Are you still thinking about Kim Sungmi, Namjoon-ah?" I asked him. I certainly know this because Namjoon is my best friend who is like my own brother has had feelings for Kim Sungmi who is Taehyung's older sister for a long time. But he failed to get the chance to express his feelings because Sungmi had an arranged marriage with Hoseok who are our own best friends. "it would be a lie if I say I don't think about her anymore. But I realized that here I was at fault for being too slow in expressing my feelings. I was too focused on my work and subordinated my own feelings. But I gave up on her hyeong because I know Hoseok loves her. And as long as she's happy I'll be fine." I know that maybe for people out there, being born and being part of a noble family who has a close relationship with the royal family is a blessing. But the real reality not that beautiful. Sometimes being part of a noble family especially if you are the only successor to the family like we experienced means you have to be prepared to live with rules. What you eat, what you drink, what you wear, who you are friends with, even with whom you will have a match, all of that has been arranged by the elders of the family. all because you were born as a nobleman. it is not uncommon for us to lose our freedom as a payment for being born into a noble family. In fact, not infrequently of us have to die because we enter upper level aristocratic family like my mother was. being the daughter-in-law of the Min family and the wife of a great General certainly makes her an easy target for those who hate my family or hate my father's righteous nature as a general. What's more, my mother was not a girl born into a high-class noble family like my father. The reason my father married my mother was purely because of love. Father ignored the advice from grandfather about the importance of family status. even though it turned out that grandfather had his own reasons why he said that to my father. It's not that he doesn't like my mother, he actually did it to protect my mother because it turned out that grandpa's hunch was true. twelve years ago my mother died because of the kidnapping incident that occurred in this mansion while trying to protect me from being slashed by the hired kidnapper. as the only son of the Min family, of course I was the key to the family's successor. Moreover, the descendants of the Min family, both girls and boys, have a high chance of sitting in government. For generations the Great Queen has always been chosen from my clan, including the current great queen and also the late Crown Princess who was my father's little sister. So that my mother and I, who was pregnant with my younger sister, also became targets of my father's political rivals. why are they that cruel? because the mother's aristocratic status was not as high as the father's, the mother's family could not demand much justice. That's what my grandfather was afraid of when his son decided to marry a woman with a noble status below them. That incident also killed not only the lives of my mother and sister, but also Rohee's parents and gave a permanent s***h wound to my eye and an arrow stab wound to Rohee's left thigh who was at that time trying to run to my father's training ground. The wound that reminded me of the incident. "Hyeong-line what's wrong with you? your scar hurts again? do I need to call a doctor? "I shook my head in answer to Namjoon's question who looked worried. "Do you remember that incident again hyeong-nim? "I just smiled a little in response to Jimin's guess for not wanting to worry them. "Don't worry hyeong-nim, after this event is over I will go south looking for information about this because one of my agent told me there are people who see the figure of the man there a few days ago. I will not let those who are responsible for the suffering that you and Rohee have endured so far can live in peace and quiet." "Namjoon, try to rest first. you just came back from the land of Tang. " "Anida Hyeong-nim, how can I rest in peace while those bastards live guilt-free after what they did? your mother, Rohee's parents, you, Rohee, even your late sister do nothing wrong but become a victim. they have to pay for all the pain. You know that I swear to Rohee, right? to fight the justice for them. " I could only sigh because if it had come related to his vow with Rohee, Namjoon would be very stubborn. even though Rohee didn't mind it anymore and let go of her parents' death, Namjoon was still Namjoon. "Don't bring it up again Kim Nam Joon, you have to put the other little people who need justice more, Namjoon-ah. And for you, my Orabeoni General, it's time for you to welcome your future wife. " only this girl named Rohee dared to scold Namjoon the chief investigator and I the great general. well, Min Yoongi's adopted younger sister shouldn't be weak and timid. Looks like I taught her well. "and your parents are also the people of this country. I will not give up and will MAKE SURE to bring their heads in front of you. I don't like it when someone hurts someone I LOVE THE MOST.- "you are like my own sister. " I saw the change on Rohee's face. aish KIM NAMJOON STUPID. How long will he be blind to Rohee's feelings for him? - ‘Ddalgi" It was the word that first crossed my mind when I saw the face of the girl that the King had specially chosen for me. During the process of the wedding ritual I couldn't take my eyes off her figure. “Hyeong-nim, take good care of my sister. Just watch out if you dare to hurt her. " I replied to Taehyung's menacing words with a nod shortly after our wedding ceremony was over and currently we are sitting together by the river which is right behind my residence after having dinner together. I know it must be hard for him to let go of his sister to be my wife. Moreover, Jangmi is the youngest sister with one mother with him. “I know your status allows you to have a concubine as well as mine. But Hyeong-nim, I hope you can be faithful with only one wife like your father. Because having more than one woman in a household can create a prolonged conflict like what happened in my family.” “You take it easy kid, you know yourself since a long time ago the Min family had an unwritten tradition of marriage that forbade us to have more You take it easy kid, you know yourself since a long time ago the Min family had an unwritten tradition of marriage that forbade us to have any more wives as long as our wives can do their job well. And I'm sure your sister can. " "Of course. Kim Jangmi is the golden boy in my family. Maybe if only she had been a man, by now she would have been sitting in a seat of government. Even Lord Song, Lord Ko, and several other nobles made proposals for her but Jangmi refused because they already had concubines. Do you know what she said to me when we arrived earlier? When I said I thought she would accept the Song family proposal she answered -And share love with his four concubines? Why choose an scratched cucumber if there is still a cucumber that is smooth? - You know what I mean, right? " Hearing what Taehyung said about cucumber made me chuckle. Jangmi is really the younger sister of Kim Taehyung, she is able to choose a unique diction to say things considered taboo become more deserve to be heard by the ear. "Ah, and one more. My sister really likes to read so I hope you can provide books for her to read. " Taehyung's last sentence made me smile. I know the reason he said this was because it was not common in our neighborhood. People have long believed that women are only required to be smart in kitchen and bed affairs but it is not appropriate to study literature, commercial business, law, or politics. But my mother taught me that women also have to be good at these things to help their husbands. for this I'm sure I can afford it because I myself really like to read so there is nothing wrong with sharing the same hobbies right? "She is a woman who will fully manage Min's residence, of course she has full access to my private library, Taehyung-ah." End Yoongi PoV - Author PoV Ahra, assisted by several trusted ladies directly appointed by General Min, now appears to be helping Jangmi prepare for the first night. One by one the cloth that stuck to the body of the girl who was still the descendant of the previous king was removed. With Ahra's help, she entered a warm bath to clean herself before the main event of today's wedding took place. “Take it easy, General is a gentle man. Even though he is notorious for being cruel, he is actually a kind person.” “Rohee-sshi, have you known General Min for a long time? ” Jangmi asked Rohee, the person who was now helping to rub her back. “We have known since childhood, my late mother and father were personal servants to the great lady and master. During the kidnapping and murdering incident, my parents were both victims. Since then I have been under the protection of the great lord and now under General Min's protection until the time has come for me to find someone who will be my companion in the future.” “You're not bound by a slave agreement with him? ” Rohee answered with a shake of Ahra's question. “master indeed often bought slaves, but he did not employ slaves at his residence. Everyone who was here already free from slave status after he bought them. If they need work then he hires them and gives them decent wages according to their work. Or if the slave is still a child, he will take up the child and look after them until the child is independent.” Jangmi smiled slightly at Rohee's explanation regarding Min Yoongi. Now she has even more reasons to accept Yoongi as her husband fully and learn to love him. She hates slavery, because of that she is always angry if Bomi or Somi considers Ahra a slave because basically Ahra has never been employed as a slave by her, her father, or her mother. For her Ahra was her sister, best friend, and guardian for her. Since Ahra was bought by her father from the auction, since then her father removed her slave status and make Ahra a part of their family who will accompany Jangmi and Sungmi to study and play. Because Ahra lost memories of her past before she was at the auction site. She even forgot her own name and the name that was now pinned on her was a gift from their father. Even though she is only an adopted child, Prince Jeongmin and his wife did not treat Ahra differently from their children. She was even equipped with the same knowledge as Jangmi and Sungmi and often practice swordsmanship with Taehyung to protect herself so that the incident that caused Ahra to be at the auction site does not happen again. And now Jangmi is grateful that at least the man who is now her husband has the same principles as her. - TBC
