Chapter 30

Episode 30 Inevitability under the name of coincidence (2)“Are you here?”

Hong Wi-moon’s greeting was quite polite.

Because of his position, he did not bow down to his waist, but it was rare for a disciple of a religious leader to show respect to this level.

The other person did not take that greeting lightly.

“The Lord of Hwanhee is meeting you.”

“Please come up. “I made it as expensive as possible, but I’m not sure if you’ll like it.”

Soyeonsim smiled.

“Hwayeonru (花淵樓) is under the management of the main hospital. “I know best how good the food here is.”

“Oh, I see.”

Hong Yu-wen scratched his head. Soyeonsim laughed at that action, which expressed her own embarrassment.

The two went up to the pavilion in a friendly manner.

Hwayeonru was one of the five main bases in Shingyo Naeseong and was also a favorite base for the leaders. Hongwimun Gate was located at Cheonwijeong (天位亭), which is said to have the best view in Hwayeonru.

The slightly dark sky, fragrant food and cool breeze added to the charm.

Soyeonsim smiled and asked.

“Anyway, how did the master of construction, who was so busy with his work, invite me?”

It’s pretty straightforward from the start. However, the smile and voice were so gentle that it did not cause any discomfort to the other person.

Hong Yuwen shook his head.

“Is there any particular reason? “It is not difficult to serve dinner to someone who works tirelessly for our school.”

“Goodbye.”

I don’t know that these are empty words. Nevertheless, So Yeon-sim covered her mouth and smiled as if she was truly grateful.

Hong Yuwen smiled.

“This is Geumjoncheong (金尊淸), which was transported with great difficulty. “Please take a drink.”

“thank you.”

The two filled each other’s glasses.

Hong Yu-wen asked as he passed by.

“How did you successfully upload the payment documents?”

Soyeonsim answered leisurely.

“yes. “It was already made to some extent, so there was no difficulty in fixing it.”

“Thank you for your hard work.”

“Do you have any trouble? “I am the one who reviews and receives confirmation from the higher-ups, but the people below do all the work.”

“It is not easy to create a good environment for subordinates to do well. “I don’t think there is anyone who doesn’t know how hard Wonju is working.”

“I don’t know what to do with myself after you paint me with gold like this.”

“I just said what I felt.”

The two people smiled and tilted their glasses.

The questions regarding payment documents could be seen as quite serious from Soyeonsim’s perspective. It wasn’t a bad thing, but it wasn’t a good thing to hear about it again.

Nevertheless, his expression does not waver at all.

‘It’s not easy either.’

In fact, she is a heroine who endured for decades in the battlefield called Shingyo and even achieved the position of Hwanhee Wonju. This is probably not someone who will be swayed by words like this.

“How about some alcohol?”

“It’s a bit too spicy for my taste.”

“Oh, is that so?”

“I don’t really like heavy scents. “But the aftertaste isn’t bad.”

Hong Yuwen’s eyes deepened.

It was just a personal opinion, but it was not an easy thing to say to the person who prepared the drinks and food. Moreover, isn’t the other person a disciple of the religious leader?

‘Are you offended? ‘Just that much?’

After examining her closely, Hong Yuwen changed his thoughts.

It wasn’t to hurt the other person’s feelings or to look into the other person’s intentions. So Yeon-sim was just expressing her honest feelings.

‘It’s significant.’

It is not easy to respond in this way in a Protestant church where the gap in social status is clear. This means that you are well aware of your own value and that your self-esteem is strong.

‘I have no taste in talking back. This is an opponent you need to attack honestly. This is a type that is not easily seen at our school.’

At the same time, he was also a very mine-like person. Because I don’t try to hide the power that I don’t need to talk about.

“Would you like another drink?”

“Oh, I’ll drink it a little slower.”

As expected, I was right.

Hong Yuwen smiled and handed her the bottle.

“If you do, please give me a drink.”

In So Yeon-sim’s eyes, Lee Chae was young.

I was interested in the other person’s reaction.

“Of course you should.”

She politely filled his glass.

When the cup was almost completely filled, Hong Wi-moon spoke.

“I need help.”

Squeak.

So Yeon-sim downed the bottle without any embarrassment. There was no answer either.

Hong Yu-wen also put down his glass. The alcohol was flowing as if it would spill at any moment, but not a single drop of alcohol was spilled.

“Lend me a hand.”

Soyeonsim, who was staring at Hongwimun, lifted her glass and emptied it.

“It was a good drink.”

Soyeonsim that rises slowly.

A smile formed in Hong Wei-moon’s eyes as he looked up at her.

“Are you uncomfortable?”

“Because I am opposed to giving power to one candidate before it is inconvenient.”

“What makes you think that?”

Soyeonsim’s eyes deepened.

“I don’t know about other organizations, but this center can’t do that. “If the main school moves, the main school shakes.”

It may sound arrogant, but Hong Yu-wen agreed with her words.

Among those who easily mention the word housekeeping, not many know how important it is.

There is no need to say anything if you are in charge of the household affairs of a super-powerful force like the Church of the Heavenly Demon. Hwanheewon was responsible for everything from small items such as food ingredients to large scale funds.

It may be a fighting organization, but when Hwan Hee-won starts to gain strength, the landscape of the succession battle changes. As So Yeon-sim says, even Protestantism can be shaken.

“I thought you would naturally know that, but I’m surprised.”

She took out a small pouch from her arms.

“I ate well. “I will pay for what I eat.”

Hong Yuwen shook his head.

“I invited you, so I will pay for dinner.”

“are you okay.”

“And it seems that Lord So is misunderstanding something.”

“A misunderstanding?”

“I asked you to lend me a hand, but I never asked you to be on my side.”

The corners of Soyeonsim’s mouth rose.

It was still a beautiful smile, but there was a bone-chilling chill inside it.

“Other than the difference in words, I don’t think there is much difference.”

“It’s completely different. As Wonju said, it’s not like he doesn’t know the characteristics of Hwanheewon.”

“It doesn’t matter even if it’s different. “This center does not provide any support to candidates unless it is appropriate.”

“I don’t think that is specified in the teachings.”

“This is my method of loyalty away from teaching.”

“I encourage you to think about that method of loyalty differently.”

“It was a good meal.”

So Yeonsim turned her back.

Hong Yu-moon, who was quietly looking at her back, opened his mouth.

“You need some Cheonggu Quadrifolia?”

At that moment, Soyeonsim stopped walking.

She still had her back turned. It is not visible what kind of expression he is making.

Hong Yu-wen said in a relaxed voice.

“It’s a precious herb. Even in Yunnan, where most of the medicinal herbs coming to our school are grown, they are not available. Did you say that it is a medicinal herb that can hardly be found even near the far eastern sea?”

“….”

“If you need it, I’ll give it to you. “I don’t really have anything to write about.”

Hong Yu-moon did not need to explain at length. This was because I knew that talking too long would only provoke the other person.

How much time has passed like that?

Slurp.

Soyeonsim turned around.

Her beautiful face was still there, but the smile that had always left her face was gone.

Hong Wei-wen smiled and lifted the bottle.

“Would you like another drink?”

Soyeonsim, who had been quietly glaring at him, sat down and raised her glass.

Hong Yuwen never behaved arrogantly. He filled my glass in an effortlessly polite manner.

So Yeon-sim emptied the glass in one go.

Hong Yuwen filled her cup again.

Only after emptying the glass three times in a row did So Yeon-sim open her mouth.

“How did you know?”

“Does it matter how you knew?”

“It’s important. At least for me.”

Hong Yuwen shook his head.

“If you want to hear that, you must bring the appropriate trade goods. “I don’t do business that doesn’t fit the abacus.”

So Yeonsim smiled coldly.

“It looks like there is an abacus called Hard Selling stuck in that abacus.”

“Please understand that this is due to unfavorable circumstances.”

Hong Yuwen smiled.

“In order for a transaction to go smoothly, you have to offer what the other party wants. At least for Wonju, I think that the green leaf herb is an item worthy of trade. How is it?”

So Yeon-sim looked at him without answering.

How much time has passed like that?

“Let’s listen first. “What does Sakongja want?”

Hong Wei-wen’s smile deepened. Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

It’s hard to do anything at first, but once you get started, it’s easy from then on.

Now that my conviction, which had not been broken until now, has been broken, if I ever have to do business again in the future, it will be easier than it is now.

“It’s nothing special. “If you have a good relationship, it could be resolved by asking.”

“….”

“You mean to get to the point first. All right. “I’ll tell you.”

After refreshingly emptying his glass, Hong Wi-moon spoke lightly.

“Hwanheewon also manages maids, right?”

“….”

“I would like you to give a secret order to one of the maids.”

“Which maid are you talking about? “What is the secret name?”

“Do you know a maid named Aenghwa?”

Soyeonsim shook her head.

Hong Wi-moon smiled as if he knew that would happen.

“I am a maid who works at the residence of the Three Dukes.”

“…!”

“Please ask the child to send me a letter detailing the activities of the three princes over the past three months. “Preferably every day.”

For a moment, Soyeonsim’s eyes wavered.

“Are you planning on touching the Three Dukes?”

“I know you as someone who doesn’t ask unreasonable questions.”

“I didn’t see him as someone who would make unreasonable requests.”

“Is that an unreasonable request?”

“It’s quite an unreasonable request. “Do you know what will happen to me, the one who instigated the incident, if it is discovered that that child is reporting on the daily life of the Three Dukes?”

“Take care of it so you don’t get caught.”

“It’s dangerous.”

Dangerous, not impossible. At least if you do it, it means you can do it.

“It’s not particularly dangerous. You just have to live your life as you normally do. “Just send a brief letter at the end of your day’s work.”

“It may be simple to say, but how…”

“Even if it becomes a problem, it is easy to solve.”

“It’s easy?”

Hong Yu-wen said as he filled his glass.

“The truth is as empty as the smoke at the beginning of the year.”

“….”

“If the gombangdae disappears, you won’t know who smoked the tobacco.”

“…!”

So Yeon-sim’s face was now hardened enough for anyone to see.

“Do you mean to commit murder and extinction?”

“I was just saying the worst case scenario. You won’t actually have to do anything. “You know, right?”

“….”

“If you will grant me that request, I will hand you the green leaf herb. “I’m telling you, just in case, it’s genuine.”

A moment of silence.

It was Soyeonsim who broke the silence.

“No matter what, it’s a difficult request.”

“Won-ju.”

“It’s not a matter of conviction, but a matter of uncertainty. “I don’t even know what kind of child Aenghwa is, but I can’t entrust her with work.”

“Then it would be okay to change the maid. “He is someone Wonju can trust and entrust to him.”

“….”

“I don’t know that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.”

Hongwimun began to solidify.

“will you do it? Or will you give up?”

Soyeonsim’s mouth trembled.

Hong Yu-wen smiled with satisfaction. It was then that she realized she was almost over it.

He filled Soyeonsim’s cup.

“Well then, I think the deal is done…”

That was then.

“How long are you going to sip from that black, grimy glass?”

The two people were momentarily startled and turned their heads.

A sonorous voice came from far away beyond the door leading to the special room.

“Originally, I was told to drink the first tea lightly and the second tea strong. “Isn’t it time to finish the first part?”

“Who are you?”

The warrior who was waiting opened the door wide.

“…!”

Su Yanshen and Hong Yuwen’s eyes wavered.

Beyond the open door, Seoliang stood holding a bottle of alcohol with a fox cub hanging on his shoulder.

“Even though it’s cheap white liquor, the glass is clean. What are you going to do? Do you want to get over it or do you want to enjoy it more?”
