.

-Whew.

As I pulled off the tough meat of the stingray with my chopsticks, the lamb inside was revealed, and the rich aroma of lamb rose up.

Cheonhwa carefully picked up the squid and lamb with her chopsticks and brought them to her lips.

As the chopsticks that had been briefly hidden between Cheonhwa’s lips came out, a warm steam rose from between her lips and disappeared.

How pretty is the way she moves her mouth?

As soon as Cheonhwa’s murmur stopped, he asked her.

“How is it?”

The taste of firm, lean squid meat and juicy lamb meat intertwined in a sticky manner is called Eogyoyang (魚咬羊).

If you have a palate from Xinjiang, where lamb is a staple food, you will definitely be able to enjoy a familiar yet unfamiliar taste.

The unfamiliar taste of the fish may be divisive, but unless you have a sensitive palate, you will definitely be satisfied.

Let’s wait impatiently for her answer. Cheonhwa paused for a moment, then answered with a satisfied smile.

“···it’s good.”

‘Ah···. As expected, as expected.’

It was something I had heard thousands and thousands of times while cooking, but Cheonhwa’s answer was different.

It was a rare sight to see such a smile, and it sent shivers down my spine.

My aunt and mother next to me also look very satisfied.

“Cheongun-ah, this is really delicious.”

“Yes, it is. It is very delicious, Sister.”

The lanterns lit by the maids swayed in the breeze, warmly illuminating the pavilion, and the meal time with the family together, along with Cheonhwa’s satisfied smile, passed quickly.

‘This is happiness.’

After such a delightful meal, when I had just finished drinking my tea and put it down on the floor, I heard my aunt’s voice next to me.

“Cheongun-ah, we need to talk to Cheonhwa, so you should go back first. Oh, and on the way back, follow Sibi and take a bath. You sweated a lot today cooking in the kitchen, didn’t you?

“Go and wait.”

He said this with a faint smile on his face.

“Oh, I understand, Aunt.”

What do you have to say to your daughter-in-law?

I was a little worried because my aunt’s smile seemed like a dangerous smile, but my mother and aunt didn’t seem like such bad people, so I erased my useless worries and quickly followed the path.

As my aunt said, I sweated a bit, but I felt like I needed to wash up if I was going to sleep with Cheonhwa.

‘You have to look neat. Sweating like crazy is crossing the line. Of course.’

It was at that moment that I had just entered a place to take a bath, following the guidance of the monk.

A mouth covered by someone as soon as the door closes.

At the same time, a voice I had heard before was heard from behind me.

“Don’t worry, Cheongun. I’ll just take a short nap and when I wake up, you’ll be by my sisters’ side.”

-widely.

I felt a slight sensation near the back of my neck, and then my hair started to come out.

***

“Why did you make me stay?”

Cheonma wanted to go quickly and be with Cheongwoon, but he had an uncomfortable expression on his face at Okso-gyo’s words telling him to stay behind.

Ok So-gyo smiled strangely at Cheon Ma’s words.

“Hehehe… Are you going to go like this?”

“?”

Cheonma raised his questioning smile without knowing English.

Oxo-kyo said with a strange smile.

“While I was talking to Elder Eun about the food that Seongyu prepared for me today, Elder Eun said something interesting, didn’t he?”

“Funny words?”

When Cheonma’s gaze turned from Oksogyo to Eunsohwa, Eunsohwa nodded and answered.

“Cheongun puts a lot of meaning into his cooking to please others or express his feelings, but today’s cooking is a little strange.”

“What’s strange? What’s wrong with that?”

The taste was good and the meaning was very satisfying, but Cheonma, who was becoming increasingly uncomfortable because of something strange, asked sharply.

It was because I felt like the dish that contained the meaning of Cheongun and Jagi was somehow being looked down upon.

It’s a dish that represents Cheongun and me, so it’s unacceptable for someone to criticize it.

However, since the opponent was Sohwa Cheongun’s mother, Cheonma decided to hold back for now.

“Yes, fish-eating sheep. Fish-eating sheep. But the dumplings are strange.”

“Gyoza?”

“Yes, when Cheongun spoke earlier, I thought he meant the sound of a fish biting a sheep, meaning a bird’s voice… But there are many meanings to it.”

“ambiguity?”

“The word ‘gyoza’ has the meanings of ‘to bite’, ‘to bite’, and ‘to chew’, but it also has the meaning of ‘obscene’ or ‘indecent’.”

“Uh, obscene?”

When Cheonma asked again in a slightly embarrassed manner, this time Oksogyo took over the conversation, nodded, and said.

“Didn’t you clearly say earlier that the fish symbolizes you and the lamb symbolizes Seonghwa?”

“That, that’s right?”

“A dish where fish ‘embraces’ sheep.”

“Yeah, I remember.”

“You chose the word ‘in your arms’ out of all the words, and you even cooked a dish that has the connotation of being obscene, like sheep and fish.

This is something that clearly has that meaning: I want to embrace the Holy Spirit tonight.”

“!”

Sohwa nods her head to Okso-kyo’s words.

Cheonma asked with a trembling voice.

“But definitely. Chi, we need some time to get to know each other···.”

I clearly said that the two of you need some time to get to know each other, but it all happened in one day?

Ok So-gyo asked with a strange smile at Cheon Ma’s flustered monologue.

“So you need more time? How many years?”

How many years? That’s ridiculous.

Didn’t you think earlier that one day would be nice?

Cheonma, startled, jumped up from his seat and answered.

“Bird, come to think of it, we’ve become close enough.”

Of course, we slept together at night, held hands while taking walks, and had a good time in the pavilion.

My heart was pounding so hard, it was clear that this was something close.

Okso-gyo smiled at that answer and grabbed Cheonma’s arm.

“Then go and wash yourself first. After that, apply perfume. Also, wear clothes that would please a man. The Holy Spirit is waiting for you, so shouldn’t you make yourself even more beautiful before you go?”

“Let’s go!”

When we arrived at the place where the Heavenly Horse was trembling but happily leading the way to bathe,

Okso-gyo looked at the next pavilion and tilted his head.

“Have you already washed up and gone back?”

Perhaps the next pavilion was where Cheongun washed, but the lights were already turned off.

“Are you in a hurry? Haha.”

Seeing that he quickly washed up and went back, I feel like Sogyo and Sohwa’s words were right.

Thinking that I should wash up and get ready quickly, I was soaking in the warm water that Cheonma had prepared, and imagining what had happened that night.

I thought I heard the door of a nearby pavilion fling open, and then I heard the clattering of warriors running out.

“Cough. Cough.”

“Oh, the fire···.”

“fire!?”

-Bam.

When the Okso-gyo inside heard the sound and ran out to ask, the warrior’s answer was heard.

“What the hell is going on!?”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry! The black ship I was riding on suddenly caught fire…”

“What did you say!?”

It is said that the black ship that Cheonma rode caught fire.

It was at this moment that Cheonma was checking on Cheongwoon by spreading his aura, wondering if Cheongwoon might find out about this due to the commotion outside.

Cheongun was nowhere to be found.

Even in his own home, even in this place called Ryugajang.

There is no way that the spirit of the Heavenly Horse could be wrong.

-Whoa.

As Cheonma’s body emerged from the warm water, her removed clothes began to fly towards her body.

***

“Haaak···. Haaak···.”

“If it’s difficult, should I take over?”

In response to Okryung’s question, Biyeon, who was carrying Cheongun on her back, answered while performing lightness moves towards Bokju with all her might.

“No. I’m still okay. Haaak···.”

It hadn’t been that long yet, and I couldn’t change shifts already.

Because I have to run all the way to Bokju.

“Haaak… Will it be okay until Bokju?”

“You must have been so busy washing up that you set fire to the black ship. By the time you confirm that Cheongun-nim has disappeared, you will already be being chased.

You just have to get to Bokju.

“Since there was a commotion last time, the scattered warriors of each clan will probably all gather at the spot. Then, this time, they won’t be taken away for sure.”

Biyeon nodded once at Okryung’s answer.

She glanced back once and then launched her lightness attack with all her might again.

As Okryung said, he set fire to the black ship and is currently distracted by something else, so he won’t be able to quickly notice that Cheongun has disappeared.

Even if I had realized it, there was no turning back now.

I had to run away as fast as I could, as far away and as close to Bokju as possible.

Because I had to bring Cheongun to my older sisters.

After running like that for a long time.

Suddenly, I felt an eerie aura coming from behind.

It had only been about an hour since they had left Ryugajang, but their movements were too fast.

I thought I would be distracted by the fire I started.

“Whoa, already!?”

Biyeon and Okryung looked at each other, too afraid to look back.

And at that moment, our gazes exchanged in a complicated way.

Okryung quickly took out two knives from her bosom, held them in her hands, bit something in her mouth, and spoke in a firm voice.

“Byeon-ah. Go.”

Okryung’s actions clearly show that she is risking her life.

Biyeon asked with a fearful look in her eyes.

“Huh, what are you going to do!?”

“If it weren’t for my older brother, my life would have disappeared somewhere without anyone knowing, as an item belonging to the dark side or the imperial family. I’ve already enjoyed more than enough happiness. Please be happy for me too···.”

“You can’t stop it by yourself anyway!”

Okryung screams at the sound of Biyeon’s cries.

“Go! Go one step further! Even our sisters betrayed us, so we can’t fail like this!? If we both die like this, we’ll become truly dirty traitors!”

Rather than losing my brother and dying like this, becoming a traitor forever, I would rather die as Okryung, risking my life for my sisters until the end.

“Go to Bokju by any means necessary! Even if I die like this, at least in the memories of my brothers and sisters, I will remain as a righteous person! Go!”

Okryung immediately turns around and shoots in the opposite direction.

“Oh, Okryung!”

Biyeon turned her head one last time and called out Okryung’s name, but Okryung immediately jumped into something approaching quickly from behind.

“Ugh···.”

However, Okryung’s determination is in vain, and Cheonma blocks Biyeon’s path.

The jade spirit that was in Cheonma’s hand fell to the floor with a thud.

“Oh, Okryung!”

Okryung’s body was still and her legs were trembling just from facing Cheonma.

Cheonma looked at the jade spirit of Balchi and said.

“Put Cheongun down and take this child. He was holding poison in his mouth to spray it. I pointed to the acupuncture point, but he won’t last long.”

“Uh, why?”

I thought we would both die here, but he said he would let us go.

At those words, Cheonma answered while looking at Biyeon’s back with dark eyes.

“Because I promised. I won’t kill you.”

When Biyeon showed an expression of disbelief at Cheongun-nim’s reply that he would keep his promise of eternal life, a familiar voice was heard from behind her.

“You bitches! How dare you! Take the holy fire!”

The Oxo-gyoran woman arrived and strode towards Bi-yeon with an angry face.

Those gleaming eyes that clearly said they were going to kill him right away.

But Cheonma immediately stops him.

“stop···.”

“But, Holy Spirit.”

“Stop. I told you to do it. Okso-gyo. What happened to the boat?”

“All the sails are burnt, so we’ll have to call a new ship or make repairs, both of which will take three months… because of these bitches!”

“Let go. I’ll just take Cheongun back.”

“Ha, but. If we let these bitches go, we’ll have to force the others to submit···.”

“Okay. It’s hard to get on the same boat anymore. I have something to protect too.

“I’ll just let you go. Because it’s a promise I made with Cheongwoon.”

“Tch… You should consider yourself lucky. If you were a teacher, I would have torn you to pieces and thrown you to the dogs.”

Ok So-gyo, who was angry at the horse, approached and carefully handed Cheong-un over to him.

Even if Cheonma alone were there, he wouldn’t be able to run away with Cheongun-nim, and on top of that, there’s the elder of the Demonic Cult?

In this case, even Okryung had to be saved.

There was no other choice.

“Oh, Okryung! Okryung! Come to your senses!”

When he handed over Cheongunnim and ran to check on Okryungi, he raised his head and the Cheonma and the elders of the Demonic Cult had already disappeared from their places.

Biyeon quickly carried Okryung on her back and flew to Bokju.

As Cheonma said, Okryung’s life was in great danger.
