Episode 196. Unpleasant Seed (2)So Yeon-sim refused to go back, saying that she had work to do.
Seo-ryang sat in the training hall, lost in thought.
âIâm not sure. But thereâs no way such a sensitive rumor would come out of nowhere.â
This is a rumor that broke out after Seo-ryang returned to school, as if he had been waiting for it. And that too after just one night.
It takes some time for such rumors to creep in. But isnât it too elaborate?
âIf someone had encouraged it, I would have prepared in advance.â
And there are only five people in Protestantism who can make such preparations and who have reason to do so.
âAll candidates except me.â
Of course, the probability that it is Jin Gwan-yong or Guan Pyeong is very high. However, he did not rule out the possibility of another successor.
People never know when or how things will change. I have seen many cases where people whom we trusted suddenly betray us.
âBut Iâm a little puzzled. I donât know what theyâre trying to do, but this method has many risk factors.â
What if Seo-ryang kills Chae Yeo-min as rumored?
The demons have no choice but to remain silent in the fight between the gods. However, the eyes of the demons who view Seoliang will not be so kind. Even though it was the headquarters of the vicious martial arts martial arts group, Chae Yeo-min was still too young.
There was also a reason why the Ma peopleâs favorability towards Hongwimun was at its lowest. Although there was no physical evidence, the demons knew that he was targeting the death penalty with a petty strategy.
However, as Soyeonsim said, it is not a big problem. What does age have to do with selecting a representative for Pasun who will usher in a new era? Public opinion is just public opinion and cannot be a decisive move to turn the game around.
âI will receive unfavorable attention. But thatâs it. On the other hand, what if the identity of the person who leaked this rumor is revealed?â
There is a limit to not using human standards, and the backlash that will blow at that time will be beyond imagination. Although there will be no controversy over the quality of the successor, it is clear that the majority of demons will turn their backs on him.
Cruelty can be accepted, but pettiness is difficult to accept. At least itâs not something God would do.
Xu Liang shrugged his shoulders.
âNothing is certain at the moment. âEven if I think about it, I wonât find an answer.â
Seoryang got up from his seat and suddenly felt the strong sunlight.
âItâs already dawn.â
He seemed to have been deeply concerned. So much so that I forget the passage of time.
âhello.â
Yeo Sang-rin walked from one side. Unlike yesterday, her appearance in clean white clothes was so beautiful that it was eye-popping.
Xu Liang nodded.
âDid you sleep well?â
âyes.â
Yeo Sang-rinâs face looked very refreshed. He was a bit nervous on the first day, but after talking to Seoryang about various things, he seemed to have regained his usual cheerfulness.
âWell, back then, you probably had a double insult to the beast palace lord, right?â
I donât really remember because it was such a tense situation, but I think they were acting like two bastards and all. Looking at that, this guyâs temperament is also not normal.
âBy the way, you really like white things.â
âyes?â
âThe skin is white and the clothes are white. âSince you eat so much, I will call you Baekban from now on.â
Yeo Sang-rin pouted her lips.
âOther people are eating less.â
âEven when I was growing up, I couldnât eat like you. âItâs safe to say that you are the best candidate in the world, just based on your disguise.â
I donât know where all that food went on that slim body. Perhaps this guyâs greatest ability may be its digestive power, which allows it to digest even stones.
âI was going to come out earlier, but I thought you were talking about something important, so I waited. âAre you a high person?â
âOh, Hwanhee Wonju is the person in charge of the schoolâs housekeeping.â
âAt first glance, you looked very beautiful.â
Xu Liang grumbled.
âHeâs just one character. âItâs a problem because heâs a fox wearing human clothing.â
âA fox to a person.â
âThere are white spots on the icicles, but itâs about the size of a fox.â
He said as he walked into the kitchen.
âHang in there. âIâll prepare a meal for you.â
Yeo Sang-rin was embarrassed.
âOh, even if I doâ¦.â
âIâm not the kind of person who is rude enough to ask a guest to cook dinner.â
Xu Liangâs eyes lit up.
âI guess Iâll have to get the kids moving first.â
* * *
âCommander General.â
âWhatâs going on?â
âThe Three Princes have come to visit.â
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
âYou noticed so openly, but it took a day for you to come. Please take it quickly.â
After a while, Seo-ryang came into the office.
Hu Yao-seong stood up with joy.
âAre you here?â
âyes.â
Xi Liang looked around and said.
âThis is the first time Iâve seen the office look so brutal.â
Hu Yao-seongâs office was a complete mess, filled with countless documents and unorganized books.
âDo you know that it is order within chaos?â
âI donât know what it is, but I donât really want to know.â
âFrom the perspective of a small person, it may seem chaotic, but from the perspective of a large person, it will look quite systematic.â
âOf all the nonsense Iâve heard recently, this is by far the best.â
âKyahaha!â
Hu Yaosheng made a fuss and guided Xu Liang to a chair.
âYou came back after eating, right? Would you like some tea?â
âAs long as itâs not an excavator truck, thatâs fine.â
âYou have a wicked sense of humor.â
âThere was a scent in the office. âI still donât know why I drink that weird tea.â
âItâs quite addictive.â
After a while, Hu Yao-seong, who was grumbling, brought out Byeok La-chun.
After taking a sip of tea, Seo-ryang asked directly.
âSo, why did you notice it so openly?â
âWhat? Are you going straight to the point?â
âCan you steal the time of the Commander-in-Chief, who is busy with construction, with a joke?â
Hu Yaosheng smiled.
âAre you sure you donât want to take up my time? Or are you just feeling hot?â
Xu Liang grinned.
âHave you heard the rumor?â
âOf course I will. âI also heard that the carriage of the former So Wonju was headed to Confuciusâ residence.â
âYou really know all the things that happen on campus.â
âAnd in real time.â
âYouâve come to the right place.â
Ho Yo-seong tilted his head as if he was amused.
âAre you curious about who the instigator of the rumor is?â
âArenât you curious then? âWho are you?â
âI donât know what you expected, but I canât tell you.â
âwhy?â
âBecause I also have to remain neutral.â
Xu Liang chuckled and turned his wrist. In an instant, the air in the office became muggy.
âSo you know.â
Hu Yaosheng spoke calmly and weakly.
âOf course. The secret shrine is under my command. âItâs harder not to know.â
âDo you want to remain neutral?â
âThatâs right. It has to be that wayâ¦â
Hu Yaosheng glanced at Xu Liangâs hand. It felt like that big hand was going to grab his neck at any moment.
âAre you going to cause an accident if I donât tell you?â
âIâm thinking about it.â
âYou have improved a lot. âIf it were in the past, you would have used your hands first.â
Hu Yao-shengâs eyes lit up.
âIt seems like you changed your mind after the inspection, right?â
Itâs definitely a ghost that has noticed.
Xu Liang clearly admitted.
âI put everything aside, stayed in a quiet place, and tried to pursue the path of inaction and nature. âAt that time.â
âWhat now?â
âI plan to kill them all and become the owner of this complicated place. âFor now.â
Ho Yaoseongâs smile deepened.
âAre you trying to destroy the Uicheon Alliance?â
âDid you hear from the leader?â
âYou are not the one who would say such things. âI was just trying to piece together the circumstances and the three princesâ suddenly changed words and actions.â
Seo-ryang shook his head without realizing it.
This is why smart people are scary. It was the same for Hao Wenâs small lord Gong Ya-chi, but Hu Yao-sheng was also a person with as much intellect as anyone else, so he figured out Xiliangâs purpose with only a little bit of information and situation.
âSo are you going to keep your mouth shut?â
âyes.â
After thinking for a moment, Seo-ryang nodded.
âThereâs nothing we can do.â
A ray of tension appeared on Ho Yaoseongâs once smiling face. Although I have some insight into Seoliang, I still donât know where this bomb-like person will end up.
How will it come out? How will this young tiger, who is willing to use any means to achieve his goal, move forward?
âI enjoyed my tea.â
âuh? Are you going already?â
âI stopped by because I wanted something, but I canât give it to you. Is there any reason to stay?â
Hu Yaosheng was at a loss for words for a moment.
Still, I am a total gunman⦠I am a power that is said to be the power of all people, whether it is work or notâ¦
âI havenât even brought up my story yet.â
Xu Liang waved his hand as if he was annoyed.
âIâm busy.â
âEven if you are busy, please give us a little time.â
âTell me who started the rumor and Iâll think about it.â
âWhatâs the deal?â
âYouâre done with the puns, right? going.â
Seoyang got up and immediately turned around. I was really ready to go. S~eaÊá´h the ηovÑlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Hu Yaosheng scratched his head and said.
âIf you are thinking of going to the Archduke or the Princeâs residence and causing trouble, it would be better for you to quit.â
Xi Liang glanced at Hu Yaocheng.
Ho Yo-seongâs face became serious as he asked why.
âI donât know if youâve heard, but the Archduke is not an easy person. âIf you blindly go straight like you did during the time of Sangongzi, you may fall off the cliff.â
âI take the advice to heart.â
âYou should listen more.â
âIâll listen to you later.â
Hu Yaosheng sighed.
âWhy are you being so reckless? If itâs always like this, one day youâll have a big problem. âYou probably donât know that.â
Xi Liang, who had been keeping an eye on Hu Yao-seong, suddenly took control.
âAlthough we are not close friends, I am always grateful to Mr. Ho.â
ââ¦to?â
âPlease continue to dedicate yourself to our school. âIt is a blessing to me that Mr. Ho is devoted to our school.â
â¦Why is this happening all of a sudden?
Xu Liang smiled.
âLetâs end todayâs conversation with this. I will come back in three days. âA proper hoepo is served with a drink.â
Hu Yaosheng frowned.
âwhat? âWhy is this person acting like this all of a sudden?â
The sudden change left even the worldâs greatest hero speechless.
So, Seo-ryang left the office. Ho Yo-seongâs face, left alone in the office with the sweet scent of tea, looked very confused.
âAre you devoted to your school? âIs that something to be thankful for?â
Come back in three days? Why on earth did they emphasize three days?
Ho Yo-seong, who was trying to collect his thoughts while drinking tea, dropped his tea cup as a sudden thought occurred to him.
Jaeaeang!
The teacup fell and broke with a loud noise, but Ho Yaoseong didnât even notice it.
ââ¦That gentleman?!â
* * *
âOh brother?!â
âItâs been a while.â
Seo-ryang smiled and stroked Chae Yeo-minâs head.
Chae Yeo-minâs face became very flushed. I havenât heard yet that Seo-ryang returned to school.
âWhen did you come?â
âIt came yesterday.â
âI see.â
Chae Yeo-min smiled.
The youngest I saw after a long time was still cute. So much so that I want to pull the ball.
âHow was Yunnan? âI heard itâs much hotter than here.â
Xu Liang shook his head.
âDonât say anything. It was very hot and it was raining heavily. âI donât think Yeo-min realizes how hard she worked.â
âwow.â
Although she had genius talent, she still had little experience in the world. For Chae Yeo-min, who had never been to a Protestant church since joining the church, the story at the bottom of the mountain was more interesting than anything else.
Seoryang, who was smiling at Chae Yeo-min, glanced to the side.
A maid who appeared to be in her mid-thirties was standing there with a nervous look on her face. It seemed like she was the maid named Sodang that Chae Yeo-min had mentioned in the past.
âAre you busy by any chance?â
âyes? Oh no! Morning training is over! âIâm not busy!â
âokay? âThen, do you want to go out for a drink with this brother?â
Chae Yeo-minâs face brightened.
âyes! yes!â
Sodangâs eyebrows twitched.
Was it urgent? She suddenly took a step forward and bowed her head.
âExcuse me, Princess, but in the afternoon, I will study Caesareaâ¦â
âHey.â
Xu Liang frowned.
âWhat happens if you donât learn Caesareanology for a day? âWhy are you holding on to a child like that?â
âIâm sorry, but the princessâs daily routine must be observed. It has been that way and it always will be that way. âIt is not something that even the Three Dukes should be involved in.â
It was quite a bold tone.
Seo-ryang felt deep concern and sharp tension in her voice.
âI heard a rumor.â
The way she spoke was a bit harsh to just listen to, but at the same time, I could tell how much she cared about Chae Yeo-min.
Xu Liang chuckled.
âI am not involved in womenâs education right now.â
âEnoughâ¦â
âSo, donât get involved in the conversation between the executioners.â
âyes?â
âWhere did you learn the habit of interrupting conversations with superiors? âDid Hwanhee Wonju teach you that?â
Sodang felt speechless.
But I couldnât back out of here. If the rumors were true, the princess was now in an incredibly dangerous situation.
âI justâ¦â
âItâs not like I donât understand. Dongpil sometimes crosses the line too.â
Seo-ryang said to Chae Yeo-min.
âShall we take a short walk and then go see my eldest brother?â
âAre you my eldest brother?â
âokay.â
Chae Yeo-minâs smile became brighter.
âgreat!â
Seoliang grinned while looking at Sodang.
âDo you think you have to learn kingship from a book to use it?â
ââ¦!â
âIf youâre worried, follow me too. âLet me see and feel for myself how to teach Yeomin in the future.â
âyes yes?!â
There was no way to stop it. Before I knew it, Seo-ryang was lifting Chae Yeo-min and holding her in his arms. It was like holding a niece.
Seo-ryangâs eyes sparkled.
âLife is real.â
