Who threatened to call me Cheonmahara with a knife? Episode 395

Propaganda (3)

It was a scene where he swallowed the blood that flowed back in an attempt to appear strong, but in reality, he was suffering from internal injuries and the side effects were running rampant.

‘shut up!!’

The side effects of Ilmok causing chaos and causing trouble.

Cheonryang immediately took the lottery ticket and bowed his head.

“I didn’t mean to test Confucius. I was just worried because this old man and the future of the family were at stake. Now that I’m sure, something like this will never happen again.”

Cheonryang suddenly became polite in the face of overwhelming violence.

‘I have never personally seen the demon Taekonggong, but I don’t think he would show such a miracle. In addition, isn’t that Confucius the leader of the Cheonma Sect? Then, how strong of a monster must that leader be… .’

Even in the midst of all this, Cheonryang had already finished calculating things in his head.

Of course, since neither Taekonggong nor the religious leader saw it in person, this was only a calculation based on guesswork.

When the Left Army Commander expressed his intention to join, Ilmok nodded and gave his first instruction.

“If you do, I have a favor to ask of you.”

“If you give me an order, I will gladly follow it.”

“Competent people. And above all, list down the bureaucrats who are dissatisfied with the current imperial system. On the contrary, list down the ones who are unconditionally loyal to the imperial family. Or list down the ones who are corrupt and harass the common people.”

It was a request for a list of those to be recruited and those to be dealt with.

“I will have it ready by tonight.”

“If you do, I will come back again at dawn.”

Ilmok, who gave Cheonryang his first order, turned his head and looked at Jin Hayeon.

“Please bring the left-wing commander back safely.”

“I will follow your orders.”

Jin Ha-yeon, who answered by taking the lottery ticket, carried the left gun again and headed towards Nanju.

“Phew.”

Only after sending the left-wing guard away did Ilmok let out a deep sigh, and a thin stream of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

“Confucius!?”

As the remaining sibs reacted in surprise, Ilmok waved his hands.

“It’s nothing serious, so don’t worry. I think I need to take a quick break, so I’ll ask you to protect me.”

Ichimoku, who had given instructions to the servants, sat cross-legged and used his internal energy before even hearing an answer.

As Ichimoku immersed himself deep into the world of the mind, he encountered two men who looked exactly like him, one blue and one red.

‘Say again that I’m dead, you bastards.’

– Well, you said it was me.

– That’s right. Be honest about your desires. Wait a minute! Speak softly, Poe. Violence is not right.

– Hey, it’s been a while since I’ve said something right. Po, violence.

‘Why? I told you not to endure it? Today is your memorial day.’

He began beating them unilaterally, surrounding them with a huge gray aura.

A few hours later.

It’s still a little early for dawn.

After recovering from his injuries and pushing away the side effects, Ilmok felt much better and visited the temple of the Left-wing Priest once again.

“Here you are, Confucius.”

After seeing the Extermination of the World in person, Cheonryang became much more polite and held out the list with both hands.

While Ilmok was spreading out the list and looking through it, Cheonryang cautiously opened his mouth.

“Your Majesty, could you please give me a few days to rest?”

As Ilmok took his gaze from the list and looked at Cheonryang with a puzzled expression, he continued speaking.

“If we kill the officials listed on the death list first, there is a possibility that even those we tried to recruit will rebel, thinking that we are suppressing them by force. Wouldn’t they be officials who were unable to follow the imperial will and wander around because they had that kind of personality?”

“First, contact those you want to recruit, and then eliminate those who get in your way, that’s what I’m saying.”

“Yes.”

After gathering his thoughts for a moment, Ichimoku nodded and answered.

“Good idea, but there is one condition. If we fail to recruit you, there is a risk that information will be leaked that we are planning to rise up. So, when we try to recruit you, you must have someone from our side with you.”

“Thank you.”

After finishing the conversation, Ichimoku took the list and left the hall.

And as time passed, it was around noon.

The left-wing officer, who was working at the boarding station, called in an official.

The left-wing monk smiled softly and opened his mouth towards the middle-aged man who had a sullen expression on his face.

“Your sullen expression is still the same, Your Highness.”

“Why have you called me, Your Majesty?”

“I called you because I wanted to have a frank conversation.”

“Are you speaking frankly?”

The middle-aged man called Kang Gong laughed openly.

But Cheonryang did not show an unpleasant reaction, but rather smiled kindly and asked.

“I don’t know what Kang Gong is so dissatisfied with. Is it because he was appointed to office at a young age, but is still only a junior officer (6th rank)?”

To the left-wing monk’s question, the middle-aged man answered with his teeth clenched.

“It has nothing to do with rank.”

“What are you so dissatisfied with?”

“… At least I believe that the old man of the Left Armed Forces is not the type of person to say a word. He told me to speak frankly, so I will.”

As Cheonryang nodded as if to say whatever he wanted, the middle-aged man opened his mouth.

“No matter how much I talk and write about the things that need to be done to take care of the people’s livelihood and increase national power, nothing changes, which makes me very angry.”

It was a symbol of anger. Although it was difficult to open his mouth, once he started to open it, the middle-aged man’s face turned red and he poured out his anger.

“How can we live with laughter when we see those who used to covet the wealth of the common people and give them bribes sit in high positions and are only concerned with filling their own granaries?”

Just after the man had vented all his anger, Cheonryang opened his mouth with a soft smile.

“Hehehe. If you were given the chance to change the world a little bit the way you want, would that anger subside a little?”

The middle-aged man, after much thought, asked back at Cheonryang’s unexpected remark.

“Are you willing to appoint me as a deputy?”

The inspector was a 5th-grade officer and was a type of inspector.

But his predictions were spectacularly wrong.

The left-wing official shook his head once and then started talking out of the blue again.

“Have you heard the rumors going around Nanju recently? Rumors about those thugs who call themselves martial artists.”

The two previous stories were both out of the blue, but when they were combined, a certain picture was created in the middle-aged man’s mind.

A terrifying picture, one that I could never have imagined.

“… Are you sure that the old man of the Left Guard is going to be on the same boat as those thugs from the Cheonmasingyo or whatever?”

The middle-aged man looked at the lower-ranking officer for a long time as if he were crazy and asked,

Instead of answering the man’s question, Cheonryang asked back.

“Isn’t this an opportunity for you? With your temper, you won’t be able to rise to a high position even if you come back from the dead. It’s also impossible for you to change the world as you dream. However, what would happen if you joined hands with the Heavenly Demon Sect and succeeded in opening a new heaven?”

Why? The man heard the words of the left-handed monk as sweet as honey.

But the man soon came to his senses and looked at the left-wing monk with a suspicious expression.

“Didn’t the old man, the commander of the left wing, dislike me?”

For some reason, the moment I accepted this offer, I felt like they were trying to frame me for treason and kill me.

The left-wing officer smiled faintly at the man’s suspicion and replied.

“You also didn’t like me, didn’t you? You thought I was a greedy old man who was only interested in promotion.”

“that….”

The man was at a loss for words to respond to the blatant expression of the left-wing politician.

Looking at the man, the left-wing officer leisurely moved his mouth.

“You saw it clearly. I am a greedy old man blinded by promotion. But do you know what? If you want to change the world even a little, you need to have power. Whether it be authority, wealth, or force. If the world is dirty, shouldn’t you climb up and change the world even if you have to get dirty all over your body? But you are busy cleaning yourself up, saying the world is dirty. That’s why I didn’t like you.”

The man was momentarily speechless at the blatant accusation that was spoken with a smiling face.

And after a moment of thought, the man was finally able to spit out a question.

“Why did you bring up this topic to me when I don’t like it?”

“They wanted someone like you.”

“!!!”

“An upright person. A person who thinks of the welfare of the common people before his own granary, even in a dirty world. I’m looking for someone like that.”

“… … .”

“My story is now over. So now decide. What will you do?”

The man was lost in thought.

‘They want someone like me?’

Did a man risk his life for someone who recognized his worth? Even at this moment, his heart was pounding.

only.

‘Is treason really the right thing to do?’

These are just the questions that are blocking his decision.

But the worries didn’t last long.

‘… All the words of the old man, the Left Guard, are true. I, I, have lived alone, pretending to be noble, afraid of being covered in dirty filth.’

If we are afraid of the stigma of treason and cannot come forward, what will be different from now?

Anyway, the current dirty sky won’t listen to his advice.

“I will accept the proposal of the elder of the left wing.”

He didn’t even consider the possibility of success for the rebellion. He just chose what he thought was right. He thought his life was not important.

When the middle-aged man responded with courtesy, Cheonryang nodded and responded.

“Good idea.”

After that, Cheonryang called in several officials and persuaded them.

However, not all those who were written on the list were called in at random.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together, those with a rebellious nature or those who are honest and upright tend to get along with each other.

All that was needed was to recruit those who were moderately honest and upright, or those who were the leaders among the rebels.

The Left Guard, who had recruited several officials during the day, left the Boarding Garrison in the afternoon.

He had already given instructions to his servant and made an appointment.

“Why did you call me here? Your Majesty.”

The old man with a stern look who asked the Zuo Po Zheng Shi that question was the military commander in charge of Gansu Province.

“Hehehe. I’m calling you because I have something important to discuss in a quiet place.”

Cheonryang paid a proper respect to the second-rank commander and led him out of Nanju and headed to a secluded place.

While riding in the carriage with doubts in his mind, the commander got off the carriage and followed the commander, who felt a strange sensation.

The place the carriage arrived was a desolate, scorched earth.

‘… It was a sight that looked like dozens of Jincheonroe shells had exploded at the same time.’

At that moment, the voice of the commander of the left wing pierced the commander’s ears.

“Thank you for coming this far with us.”

“Hehehe. There must be a reason why you came all the way here. So, what did you come all the way here to talk about?”

In response to the commander’s question, Cheonryang did not open his mouth right away, but instead glanced at those around the commander.

They were a kind of bodyguards.

The commander opened his mouth, perhaps understanding the meaning contained in that gaze.

“Don’t worry, you can trust them. They follow my will completely.”

As he said that, the commander turned and looked at the woman standing next to Cheonryang.

She was a cold-looking beauty who had not uttered a single word the entire way here.

Oddly enough, the left-wing general was accompanied by only that woman, without any escort.

“This woman’s will and my will are in line, so there is no need to worry.”

The commander felt a strange sensation at that answer.

If it’s a subordinate or something, you just have to follow what they say, but it’s like they’re in agreement.

‘Is that what you mean by a concubine you cherish to that extent? It seems like you clearly want to talk about something important, but why are you dragging your concubine into this situation? Could it be that you are planning to ask someone from your concubine’s family to be appointed as a provincial commander?’

The commander couldn’t even imagine it.

The fact that their right to life and death was in the hands of that woman whom they mistook as the concubine of the Left Army.
