“It seems like you waited because you knew I would come.”
“green onion… “His Majesty King Papa Papal?!”
‘You cursed so excitedly without even knowing the person in question was coming, so now the only thing left to do is die!’
Wang Gae and Pyeon Sa-gwang’s faces turned pale.
It is worth noting that the warriors wearing black military uniforms who followed the Eight Kings into the guesthouse are now crossing dozens of water planes.
Uihonggwang sent a message to Namgungcheon.
– Were you really waiting for the Eight Kings? –
– I thought it would come. –
– If you were waiting, there must be some solution, right? –
– I don’t want to go so far as to say it’s a countermeasure, but I have something in mind. — Then, you can do whatever you want. -Nangongcheon looked at Uihonggwang with a strange look.
It is natural for Ui Hong-gwang to come to the fore due to his seniority and the hierarchy of the martial arts world… .
– Are you saying that you are going to turn your back and step back, Mr. Beggar? — Didn’t you first tell me to keep using the bamboo lip? Wasn’t this something you were preparing for when something like this happens? -Nangong Cheon clicked her tongue.
It is not for nothing that old ginger is said to be spicy.
– All right. Since the board is wide open, let’s play properly. –
However, it is impossible to estimate how much the game will grow.
Nam Gung-cheon poured a strong bamboo leaf syrup for Joo Yeong-myeong, who was sitting across from him, and said.
“For some reason, it felt like someone would come looking for me. “I’m afraid I’m a very reluctant visitor.”
Joo Yeong-myeong thought as he glanced at the monster who was leaning back with his bamboo ribs pressed down.
‘Hmm. Was it my mistake? I thought that the monster with the bamboo hat was a higher-ranking person than the guy named Namgung-cheon.’
“How… “It looks like the horse’s tail is shorter than it was during the day!”
“ah! The person I saw during the day was a man who knew good manners, but the person I met at night was a very nasty person who would kill the other person if he made a mistake. So, your majesty, please take care of yourself.”
“Yes you bastard! “What kind of safety is it that you make such nonsense?!”
The military officer seems to be unable to hold back his blood and pulls out his sword.
Nangong Cheon quickly scanned his entire body with his eyes.
His age is around mid-thirties.
He has a handsome beard, and although his clothes are black, they are made of expensive material and the sleeves are long, giving him an old-fashioned look.
In addition, the scabbard is extremely ornate and the thread at the end adds to the stylishness, showing that his rank is not low at all.
the problem is.
“If you hold something so hideous, how can you live with such fright that you are as weak as a dwarf?”
Namgungcheon did not like people pointing a sword at him, either in his past life or in his current life.
“omg!”
The officer’s eyes widened.
How could it be that the sword that was pointed at the opponent was lifted by the opponent?
Meanwhile, Uihonggwang, who was watching this scene, could not help but be amazed.
‘You’re such a clean-cut white man!’
Of course, Uihonggwang can do that much with his eyes closed.
However, Nam Gung-cheon is now only a late-stage index of about seventeen.
Knowing something and actually using it in battle are two completely different things, but he snatched the opponent’s sword as if he had taken something from his own pocket, as if he had tried it countless times in battle.
“It looks pretty good on the outside… .”
Jangkang!
“Your insides are so weak. Is it because he resembles his master?”
“omg.”
The military officer’s face became even more white. The faces of the other military officers were not much different.
A human hand made of fabric. How could he shatter the blade with his bare hands, especially if his fingers were unusually white and long, uncharacteristically manly?
“this… “What kind of hex is this?”
Namgungcheon clicked his tongue.
“Isn’t the excuse for witchcraft so boring? “Well, even if I have eyes, I don’t think it will be of much help in life if I can only see that much.”
“omg!”
The military officer took a step back without realizing it because it sounded like he was going to cut out his eyes.
It was only after I took a step back that I realized my depravity. The situation has already happened.
Pyun Sa-gwang and others clicked their tongues at that disgusting sight, but they also understood his feelings a little.
‘… I’m just surprised. ‘Where could I have met a squire like that?’
Joo Young-myeong looked at the military officer who showed displeasure and spoke with uneasy eyes.
“Step back.”
“Well, Your Highness. It’s unfair. If you give me another chance… .”
“I told you to step back.”
Although he was a king, Joo Yeongmyeong had lived longer than the time when he was a king, so he could be said to be more knowledgeable about martial arts affairs than other members of the imperial family.
I knew that it was rare to have this level of martial arts skills at such a young age.
“Your martial arts skills are stronger than I thought.”
“I take it as a compliment.”
“I came to talk.”
“I don’t think there’s any need to talk. Since you’re already here, why not have a drink or a nap? “It may not suit your taste because it is something that common people drink.”
Joo Young-myeong frowned as he sensed some kind of hostility in the other person’s tone of voice.
“Why is it so twisted? “Has this king done anything wrong to you?”
“It’s not a fault, but Your Highness is the type of person I don’t really like.”
“not… Favorite type?”
“yes. In fact, it’s closer to contempt.”
Pyeon Sa-gwang and Wang Gae felt like their hearts were jumping out of their chests and jumping around.
‘oh my. It’s ruined. It’s not that I just don’t like it, I said I despise it, so there’s no way I can save my life!’
“Why do you despise me so much?”
“It’s not contempt. It’s closer to contempt. A person like that doesn’t really care how other people live… Still, I don’t have a bad taste for animals that try to kill the parents who gave birth to me.”
Joo Young-myeong’s face suddenly hardens.
The civil servant standing next to him did not hide his anger.
“Your Majesty! He is not even worth having a conversation with. “Order him to be killed immediately.”
Namgungcheon looked at the monk with narrowed eyes.
He is now about 40 years old and appears to be a typical desk eater.
But it looks very familiar.
‘ah. ‘It’s him.’
During the day, in front of the eight kings’ vassals, when the Eight Kings said that they were trying to ignore the death of his mother, Lady Woo, the vassal whose expression did not change the most was the man in front of them.
In addition, except for the warriors currently holding weapons, he is the only one of the eight kings’ retainers seen during the day who followed him as a guest.
‘Then there is a possibility that this person is the one who devised a plan to eliminate Yeomsaho by using the Palwang’s mother.’
If you think about it another way, it could be said that there is a possibility that the remaining vassals were unaware of the Eight Kings’ plan.
If you think about it, it makes sense.
A scapegoat to eliminate a political opponent. In other words, trying to use it as a tool is completely unacceptable in the current era where Confucianism is the ruling ideology.
Of course, it would be a different story if he were a tyrant who didn’t care about such things, but even that could be said to be a different situation from the Eight Kings.
Ordinary tyrants usually have strong imperial power in the early stages of their reign.
On the other hand, the Eight Kings, who were only recently reinstated to the throne, can be said to lack such a political foundation, and if this fact were to become known to the outside world at this point, they would face strong attacks from Confucianism and their ascension to the throne would be aborted. The possibility is very high.
‘Therefore, the number of people who know about this plan must have been minimized.’
Just as everyone’s thoughts are different, if people learn of this plan, there will be people who are disappointed with the Eight Kings, and in the worst case, there is a possibility that there will be people who will betray him.
“I don’t understand one thing either. As you can see, my close associates are so against me, so why do you insist on talking to me?”
“It’s to find a reason to save them. “It’s also my mother’s request.”
Namgungcheon’s eyes widened.
‘… ‘This is a bit unexpected.’
As if Namgoong was not the only one surprised, the trickster’s eyes widened and he tried to stop Joo Young-myeong.
“majesty! If you keep the authors alive, it will never happen. We have already killed Pyeongjeokgoong. “You should be planning your business while you’re away, but you’re leaving behind regrets.”
‘ah! ‘Is Pyeong Jeok-hong dead?’
If it is Pyeongjeokgoong, it is the same as the salt lake seen during the day.
I expected something to kill him.
Because we have to maintain security.
And the words that came out of the staff’s mouth, saying that he was trying to get things done while he was away, probably meant that he would quickly enter the palace before this fact reached Yeom Sa-ho’s ears and hasten to be crowned emperor by Emperor Xuan, who will be appointed today or tomorrow.
For that purpose, he will kill Lady Woo and blame it on ‘Yeom Sa-ho’s actions’.
“In the end, you are planning to kill your wife.”
“How did you… .”
“I worked hard to save him from confinement at Bogyeongsa Temple, but he was killed again by an assassin sent by Yeomsaho. I guess you made a plan like this. You said you were looking for a reason to keep me alive, and my answer is this. Just do whatever you want, whatever you feel like doing. “I don’t want to beg for her life from a pervert who tried to kill her own mother.”
“you… .”
Joo Young-myeong’s face is distorted like a grain of sand, as if broken by the incoming waves.
Namgung-cheon, who had lifted the glass of alcohol he had poured in front of him and drank it as if laughing in his face, opened his mouth again.
“Still, I thought it was a person, but it’s a waste of alcohol because it doesn’t work out at all. Isn’t that right? “Young man?”
“yes. Even alcohol is a waste for the world’s most corrupt child.”
Perhaps because Ui Hongguang knew about Zhou Yongming’s plan, his tone of voice was not polite at all.
‘Hmph, you may have said it bluntly, but doesn’t that mean that you are going to kill Ji’s mother in order to gain power?’
Thanks to this, the knitting fanatics and others who had been very scared had no choice but to feel embarrassed.
‘You two are already treating your lives like stubble.’
Of course, if Nangong Cheon had known Pyeon Sagwang’s feelings, he would have laughed out loud.
“You tell me. Why is this king an immoral person? Do you know how I feel about doing this? “Do you know that this king is willing to do this with the heart of cutting his bones for a country that is in ruins!”
Nam Gung-cheon looked questioningly at Joo Young-myeong, who was expressing his unfairness with his whole body.
… Why do you have to say something like that to me?
Do you want to be recognized for doing a good job?
“There is a saying that the system should be leveled.”
“ha. The reception system is pyeongcheonha. Yeah, I know what you mean. But what takes precedence over that is the cause. King Bon wants to punish Yeom Sa-ho for the sake of his suffering people. “I have already told my mother about my difficulties.”
“Then what do you say?”
“as you please… Do it. It’s okay for me. He said he was satisfied with seeing me doing well. “He said he would be willing to go to hell if it meant sacrificing one person to save all people.”
“So? So, what do you want to do with your Majesty?”
“… “What do you want to do?”
“yes. “Once you become emperor and eliminate your political opponents, what do you plan to do next?”
“that… .”
Nam Gung-cheon laughed at Ui Hong-gwang, who blurted out the end of his words.
“The king just wanted to punish the family’s enemy. So he had no idea how to save the people.”
“no! “That’s absolutely not the case!”
“Of course, there are people in that heart, too. But it will only be a very small part. “What you really want is the emperor’s throne.”
Joo Young-myeong felt as if his heart had been stabbed by a sharp awl.
I wanted to refute something, but I couldn’t bring myself to speak. And what came to his mind was the image of his mother, Lady Parani, with her hair shaved.
“I don’t know. “When I couldn’t see my mother, I thought I would be able to do it without hesitation for the greater good, but now that I actually met my mother, I was just confused!”
“majesty!”
The corners of Namgungcheon’s eyes, which had gone up, slightly lowered.
‘… Still, it seems like it’s not completely beyond rescue. Did the need for conversation really mean that you needed someone to talk to?’
Sometimes in life, that happens. I feel like I’ve been living my life well, but I feel like I’ve been living it wrong. When you feel that way, there are many cases where you really lived your life wrong.
… … however. Who do I have the right to tell someone to live their life properly?
“Your Majesty, please consider the cause! “This is the only way to confront Yan Sahu.”
“… Is this really the only way! “How can heaven be so harsh to me?”
Namgungcheon clicked his tongue.
I know one thing. They’re shaking like crazy.
I think Ji is a real savior who will save Jungwon.
With this, I noticed one major problem.
‘That staff member who covered Joo Young-myeong’s eyes and ears was the real problem.’
Nangong-cheon said while glaring at Joo Yong-myeong and the staff alternately.
“Think about it carefully. It’s not my place to argue about other people’s lives, but I know at least one thing. Will other people recognize the throne he gained by killing his parents? You think the world won’t know? no. There are no eternal secrets unless you destroy them all. Just now… “Dozens of people know this besides us.”
The military officers who were singled out by Namgung-cheon’s fingers turned pale in an instant.
“majesty! Please believe in the gods. “The officials will keep today’s events secret until the day they die.”
“no way. Surely you don’t believe that? Those people will definitely change their minds as they live. Among them, there will be people who are discriminated against based on merit, and then jealousy will naturally arise. ‘ah! I’ve done more work than him, so why am I rewarded like this?’ And so. Then, there will definitely be people who talk about today’s events. In order to prevent that in advance… Hmm, as expected, the killer planthopper would be neat.”
The group, including Ui Hong-gwang, looked at each other with blank stares.
‘… ‘What is he doing now?’
‘Even if I die, I won’t die alone, isn’t this what it means? Is it like a funeral?
