## Chapter
- number: 133
- release_date: 2025-03-13

### Summary
Following their chaotic reunion, the dynamic between Geumja (as "Joe") and Prince Kyle deepens into a display of affectionate intimacy, with strong implications of an off-screen physical relationship. Kyle is portrayed as secure and deeply loved, proudly wearing a large, heart-shaped gem from Joe as a public symbol of their bond. This act reinforces the fan-perceived role reversal in their relationship, where Joe is the dominant partner. Simultaneously, a major political plot escalates as the Emperor and nobles gift Geumja numerous horses. This is interpreted dually by the audience: either as a condescending insult referencing her past as a stable boy or as a calculated political trap, enabling her to build a cavalry that could later be used to frame her for treason. Seemingly oblivious or indifferent to the potential mockery, Geumja pragmatically accepts the gifts to build her military power. The chapter also marks a somber turn with the death of the Empress, a controversial figure whose passing adds to the palace intrigue.
