Chapter 481

Episode 481: Daehyeongjeong (代理聽政) (6)

The four people who trained according to the orders of the village were talented people whose abilities were recognized.

“They make enough money to pay for their meals...”

The officials who heard the rumor that four people were working together under orders from the village all nodded and responded positively.

However, the four people’s joint work was surprisingly sluggish.

Hyang, who heard the story through the eunuchs, slightly shook his head and muttered.

“As expected, the group task is...”

* * *

The reason why the four people’s joint work was sluggish was slightly different from what Hyang experienced in the 21st century.

The first reason was that all four of them were talented and greedy at the same time.

The idea and content of the first plan I submitted personally were similar. However, in the process of solving it in detail, the four people clashed constantly. It was to make what he thought the core.

“no! That part is wrong. Now cause and effect are wrongly intertwined!”

“You shouldn’t analyze this part like this!”

“How do you come to this conclusion from here?”

“That’s just your opinion!”

The four people clashed fiercely over each and every aspect of the plan.

The second reason was that it was difficult for the four people to mix with each other.

Han Myeong-hoe and Kwon Ram entered into a relationship as a special favor of King Sejong. However, Seong Sam-moon and Hawiji entered into a relationship after passing the civil service examination in the past, as was customary – especially Hawiji had to pass the state examination.

There is a subtle boundary line here.

In addition, a conflict was established between Seong Sam-mun, who valued the principles of Han Myeong-hoe and was adept at improvisation. Likewise, Kwon Ram, who is from a family that contributed to the founding of the country, but has a short history, and Hawiji, who comes from a prestigious family with deep roots dating back to the Goryeo Dynasty, formed an angle.

It would have been okay if the situation had ended here.

The third reason why these four split was because of Hunminjeongeum.

Han Myeong-hoe responded favorably, and Seong Sam-moon showed active support. However, Kwon Ram reacted cynically to Hunminjeongeum, and Hawiji disliked Hunminjeongeum.

The last reason was scent.

“The four of us provide training, but it is not allowed to force one’s opinion based on differences in class. Just take the plan that the four of you think is most reasonable and good.”

Simply put, the order was for all four people to work on equal footing to produce the best results.

Of course, it wasn’t that Hyang didn’t know that something like this would happen. I just ignored it.

“It was only a record of history, but they were outstanding in their ability alone. “You have to prove it.”

Han Myeong-hoe and Kwon Ram were key figures in the Gyeyujeongnan and continued to be the core of power thereafter. Seong Sam-mun, who was constantly persuaded by King Sejong because he felt that his abilities were a waste of money, was kept by King Sejong, who asked him to take care of his younger son.

They were all extraordinary people.

Because they were those people, the scent exerted pressure on them to the point of persistence.

“Do it again!”

Every time they came back with their results, if there was even the slightest problem, Hyang strongly reprimanded them and rejected the plan.

Due to the stress brought about by the pressure of the fragrance, individual differences such as the reasons mentioned earlier, and the pride that overestimates their abilities, the four people constantly set themselves apart.

Although there were only four people, they were four people who showed a stark example of how people can be divided.

* * *

“Hmm... It’s heated up enough so I guess I’ll put it together.”

After examining the situation, Hyang decided to do so and called the four of them.

“Are there still no results?”

“I apologize.”

“I apologize.”

“Because they are uncivilized...”

Looking at the four people bowing their heads to Hyang’s words, Hyang continued speaking in a very sharp voice.

“Bulmin? Probably not. He must have been overconfident in his own abilities to do something like this. is not it?”

“....”

At Hyang’s point, the four closed their mouths and bowed their heads. Looking at the amount the four were doing, Hyang continued to press on.

“Am I funny?”

“No!”

Meanwhile, the officer who was recording Hyang’s proxy cleaning recorded everything that Hyang wanted for the four people and added.

-...So the Crown Prince of Donggung gave an order, and the four people left the hall trembling greatly.

The officer says:

The strictness with which Prince Dong handles matters is like a sharp sword, and the results are clear. Following His Majesty the Lord, Prince Dong-gung is so outstanding that he is a blessing to Joseon. However, Donggung must keep in mind the saying, too much is too little.

But why are you suing me so much?

Although they did not show it openly, many officials complained that the four people who had acted proudly, knowingly or unknowingly, had completely broken up.

* * *

Five days later, the four submitted a plan to Hyang.

“Hmm...”

The four people with very tense faces swallowed dry saliva and looked at the scent.

After carefully analyzing the plan, going back and forth between the front and back, Hyang put down the plan and looked at the four of them.

“It’s okay. “I think it would be good to run it like this.”

“Whoa~. “Huh!”

The four of them, who had unconsciously sighed in relief, were startled and immediately bowed down.

“I apologize for my disgrace!”

“I’m sorry!”

Hyang lightly waved his hand as he saw the four asking for forgiveness for their mistakes.

“It’s okay, so get up.”

“I am devastated.”

At Hyang’s command, the four stood up from their places, folded their hands together politely, and waited for Hyang to speak.

“Although it took more time than expected and there were many rejections. “Thanks to you, I started to question your abilities.”

“I apologize.”

“But I really like the result this time. Therefore, I will give you an order. From now on, you will become one organization and take full responsibility for reviewing and supplementing the policies I ask you to review.”

At Hyang’s command, the four eyes grew as large as possible. Han Myeong-hoe spoke on behalf of those four people.

“Sir, are you saying that we should continue to train and work in the future?”

Hyang nodded to Han Myeong-hoe’s question.

“That’s exactly what I’m saying. Looking at the results, I can see that the four of you have gotten to know each other well and complement each other’s strengths and weaknesses well. So, I want to leave the work to you with peace of mind. why? Are you dissatisfied? If you are dissatisfied, let me know.”

I told him to speak up if he was dissatisfied, but his true intentions were clear.

‘Just say it! ‘I’ll definitely demote you!’

In the end, the four had no choice but to accept Hyang’s orders.

“I follow your orders.”

“After all the hard work you’ve put in, you can leave today. “If you show up tomorrow, there will be a room available for you to work in.”

“I am devastated.”

Four people with very tired faces trudged out of Seunghwadang. Arriving at the entrance to Geonchun Gate, the four stopped at the same time and sighed at the same time.

“Whoa~.”

The four let out a long sigh and looked at each other’s faces. As they looked at each other with a mixture of love and hate, Han Myeong-hoe opened his mouth.

“Since this has come to an end, let’s have a drink first.”

At those words, the other three nodded at the same time, and Hawiji took the word.

“I know a pretty good place. “Let’s go there.”

In this way, a planning and coordination office directly under the township was created.

* * *

While King Sejong was busy with his schedule of business trips and food trips, Hyang was diligently carrying out his duties.

There were many tasks handled by the township that had to be handled by the Yukjo, but there were also many tasks that the township handled independently.

“I have passed the entrance exam to become a member of the National Assembly.”

The scent immediately responded to the eunuch’s words.

“Please stop by.”

The scent that gave the command muttered to itself.

‘Have the results finally come out?’
