Episode 380Stagnant water is bound to rot (5)
Para-la-la-rak!
Although spring had fully arrived, the wind blowing through the mountains was still strong and sharp.
Five huge flags fluttering in the wind announced the departure of the Uijeong Army.
The atmosphere was quite different from when the combined forces of Tangma Murder Temple were deployed previously. The capital of the military was the same and the justification for going to carry out the operation was the same, but there was one crucial difference.
They are now one.
Instead of each person having a role to play on equal footing, the situation has come to where they have to become one unit and perform one mission.
The burden and sense of heterogeneity sharpened the eyes of all members of Uijeong County to an extremely sharp level. Naturally, their energy waves became sharper, and in the end, their campaign was so powerful that it was difficult for those watching to catch their breath.
âItâs spectacular.â
Zhuge Mun-hoâs eyes deepened as he looked down at Uijeong-gun from the castle wall.
âTheir sharp tension can be felt here. âDefinitely Yeon Ho-jeong is a person.â
The official laughed.
âIf that guy was a real bastard, he would have been able to quiet down his excessive prayers a little longer. âI donât think itâs fully integrated yet.â
âThat couldnât have been helped. Yeon Dae-su was so busy. However, with his personality and abilities, I believe he will be able to truly unite the Uijeonggun through this mission.â
âjoy! âIf that really happens, that cheap guyâs arrogance will be even higher.â
Although he was grumbling, the gaze of the party official looking at Yeon Ho-jeong, who was in the lead, seemed calmer than ever.
Even though he said that, it was because he also believed in Yeon Ho-jeongâs abilities. In particular, after the recent debate over the shortcomings of Mancheongong and Hwawoogong, the partyâs view of Yeonhojeong became more negative and deeper.
âAnywayâ¦â S~eaÊá´h the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
The official glanced at Yeonwi.
âAre you okay?â
âWhat do you mean?â
âThat guy has a reputation for ax cutting, so I wouldnât worry too much, but that thief didnât even take my younger brother with him.â
ââ¦.â
âFrom what Iâve seen before, the second childâs talent doesnât seem to be average either. But you still look young.â
It wasnât just because he was young that he was young. Yao (è¦) probably means lack of experience and martial arts.
Yeonwi shook his head coldly.
âIt is safe to say that the second childâs talent is the best in the history of our family. But, as the head of the party said, it is still not enough.â
âBut?â
âI believe in the second childâs talent. And I believe in the firstâs insight and ability. âIâm sure weâll be able to return safely.â
âFor those two to return safely, the mission must be completed successfully. âDo you think those guys can succeed in this mission?â
âI just trust Gojeong.â
Although they gave detailed answers, I could tell just from the way they spoke that the screening process was quite complicated.
The official who was looking at Yeonwi turned around.
âletâs go. âLetâs go and have a drink.â
âItâs okay.â
âIâm not okay, so letâs go. âI donât have a meeting or anything to do today, so I should have a drink to relieve my mood.â
Yeonwi smiled bitterly. I was grateful that it seemed like it was for my own benefit, but no matter how much I thought about it, there was no way alcohol would be in my mouth as a parent who sent my children to battle.
It was then.
âItâs still a long way to raise a toast.â
The officialâs eyes became cold.
The person walking up the castle wall was none other than Prince Moyong.
âThis mission is not a matter that can be handled simply with the capabilities of the National Assembly Army and the intelligence power of the main branch. The difficulty of the mission will vary depending on how the Mukryongbu steps forward, as the southern part of the central plains is where the black island is stronger than the white island.â
âThatâs an interesting thing to say.â
The official laughed openly.
âIsnât that why we sent the head of the Moyong family, who had outstanding abilities, to the Mukryongbu?â
âYang Chen is a dangerous person. Although he is a proud hero, he has already experienced the sweet taste of power. âI think he will handle it well, but if he shows any unusual behavior, the entire Uijeong County could be in danger.â
âI know very well. âIs this true that they were comrades who joined hands and aimed for the peak of martial arts?â
Prince Moyong looked directly at the official and said.
âI never held hands with him.â
The official snorted.
âYou must be young.â
It was a truth that should not be revealed to the public. Mo Yong-gun also knew that they knew about the relationship between him and Yang Cheon, but he still couldnât admit it openly.
Well, now that even that has become non-existent, it has no real meaning.
Prince Moyong continued.
âIn any case, the best way to understand the current movements of the Mukryongbu is from their position in the same Honam region. âMoyong Family will be in charge of following the Uijeong Army that passes through the Honam region and heads to the southernmost tip, so others will assist the military and select only the important information from the information gathered.â
âI donât have a superior.â
âI just thought it was the most reasonable distribution of roles.â
When the official was about to open his mouth again, Zhuge Wenhu spoke.
âWhat Moyongaju said is correct. âNow is not the time to bicker among ourselves, but rather a time for all of us to support the Uijeong Army so that it can successfully complete its mission.â
Yeonwi asked.
âMilitary.â
âPlease speak.â
âCan you give me a moment?â
Zhuge Wenhu could guess why Yeon Wei was asking that question. It may have been because he was curious about the reason why the Uijeong army was sent out unreasonably.
Zhuge Wenhu said with a smile.
âof course. âBut before that, I have something to talk with the head of the Moyong family for a moment, so could you please leave the room?â
ââ¦I understand. âI will wait in the office.â
âthank you.â
With Yan Wei and Tang Guan leaving, only Zhuge Li and Prince Mo Yong remained on the wall.
Mo Yong-gun asked in a calm voice.
âWhat do you have to say specifically to this man?â
Zhuge Wenhu said.
âHave you completely cut off business with the Ink Dragon Department?â
âThatâs interesting. âDidnât I say Iâve never had any dealings with them?â
âWe will not discuss this further. So to speak, this is our last conversation.â
Zhuge Wenhu took out several documents from his arms.
âThis is a document that proves that you are related to Yangcheon, Lord of the Ink Dragon.â
ââ¦!â
âOf course, it is not great physical evidence. Itâs just that I wrote down my feelings and analyzed them. âI have not shown this document to anyone.â
Mo Yong-gunâs eyes became cold.
âWhat are you planning to do now?â
âIt is not conclusive physical evidence, but if this spreads throughout the Gangho, the position of the Moyong family as well as the Moyong family will fall to the ground. We may face catastrophic financial difficulties. âThe merchants who do business with Moyonga also make a living off of trust and rumors. If such bad rumors spread, they too will likely turn their backs.â
âAre you trying to go to war with your family?â
âIs that possible?â
Grumble!
Blue flames erupted from Zhuge Liâs hand.
There are many martial arts of the Zhuge Dynasty that are fundamentally based on wood energy and water energy. Since Zhuge Liang created the Samadhi Fire as naturally as breathing, it was clear that his martial arts skills were not lacking compared to other family heads.
Zhuge Munho, who waved his hand, spoke calmly.
âThis is a document that I systematically organized in the hope that I might use it someday. âI donât know if you believe it, but the data Iâve shown you right now is all about this.â
ââ¦.â
âNow that weâve burned everything, letâs have an honest conversation one last time.â
ââ¦What do you want to hear?â
âIâll ask again.â
Zhuge Wenhoâs expression turned cold.
âHave you completely ended your relationship with the Mukryongbu, to be exact, the Mukryongbu lord?â
ââ¦.â
âPlease answer.â
âWhat does my answer mean to you?â
âI burned the documents first to facilitate conversation. So, I hope you donât dilute the seriousness of my question by going back and forth unnecessarily.â
ââ¦.â
âI will ask. Has the relationship with the Lord of the Ink Dragons been completely resolved?â
Prince Moyong, who was glaring at Zhuge Munho, spoke bitterly.
âI came back alive and unharmed even though I touched Yangcheonâs evil.â
ââ¦.â
âI cut the chest of a great man with such great pride with a dagger. âIf it were me, I would have promised myself that even if I would let him live right now, I would rip him limb from limb when we met him again.â
He was indirectly saying that the relationship was completely broken.
Zhuge Wenhuâs eyes lit up.
âThen I understand that your relationship with Vice President Yang has been completely severed.â
âBut whatâs so important about that?â
âItâs important. âThe reason I agreed to Lord Yeonâs suggestion to allow you to go to Yang Cheon alone is because I wanted to see your reaction.â
ââ¦!â
âAs the Moyong family said, Commander Moyong has come under Yeonâs command, so there wonât be any hostages like that. âNevertheless, I hope you understand that I have no choice but to doubt you.â
Zhuge Wenhu nodded and added.
âThe Moyong family I know is a person who can spit out lies as naturally as breathing if he decides to do so. But now, at least this person doesnât seem to be lying.â
ââ¦.â
âPlease take care of me in the future.â
âJust to find out?â
âThatâs not all. âIf our comrades with whom we must fight in the future have malicious intentions that we are not aware of, how can we trust them and be on the same boat?â
ââ¦.â
âI apologize for being rude. âYou may leave now.â
Prince Mo Yong, who was quietly glaring at Zhuge Mun-ho, turned around.
âDonât touch Wu. Because itâs true.â
âof course.â
Thatâs how Prince Moyong came down from the wall.
Zhuge Wenhu turned his head to Uijeonggun again. Before we knew it, Uijeong-gun was crossing the ridge in the distance. It was amazing speed.
ââ¦Kite algebra.â
Zhuge Wenhu smiled faintly.
âI think we can proceed.â
After half an examination.
Food!
A crow gliding with its large wings outstretched landed on Yeon Ho-jeongâs shoulder.
Yeon Ho-jeong took out the chimney attached to the crowâs ankle and read it.
ââ¦Well, there was no prank as expected.â
Yeon Ho-jeong, who was smiling bitterly, took out a piece of beef jerky from his pocket and fed it to the crow.
âGood job. âLetâs go back.â
Caw!
The crow took off with a powerful cry and soon approached the mountain peak in the distance. It was amazing speed.
Mo Yong-woo and Muk-bi approached his side.
âIs this a message from Meng?â
âokay.â
âWhat do you say?â
Yeon Ho-jeong shrugged his shoulders.
âItâs no big deal. âIt simply means that you can execute the orders you received before going on the road.â
âyes?â
Can I run the command I was given? What does this mean?
Yeon Ho-jeong turned the reins on the horse.
Heeheeheehee!
The weight of the Gwangryongbu was so great that a separate warhorse was needed to withstand its weight. The warhorse that Yeon Ho-jeong rode this time was a divine horse, boasting a thicker and more fit body than any warhorse ridden by soldiers.
âThere is a place to stop before heading south through Honam.â
âWhere do you mean stopping by?â
âMukryongbu.â
ââ¦yes?!â
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled coldly.
âItâs been a while since I saw you, Tuwang.â
