Episode 456. The strong know no shame.
Southern directness.
Suhyeon Cheonhagang.
around noon.
Nine wagons, porters, and as many as thirty warriors appeared on the riverside.
On the flag on the blue background attached to the roof of the carriage, the word white flowers was written in white.
This is the top of Baekhwasangbang on the way to Namjilgyeseong Fortress.
Baek San-wu, the sword of Sangwol, returned from looking at the river, and approached Baek Il-woong, the acting chief.
“I think we can just cross over because the days are dry.”
“Wouldn’t the porters’ feet get wet?”
“You can go over and have lunch and rest for a while. Since crossing the river is Hefei anyway, how about doing some maintenance at this point?”
“Hmm, I don’t mind taking a break, but I don’t know if there’s anything to fix.”
I met the masked people in Bunam-hyeon, and the goods to be sent to the Namgung family were completely burned. So, there is no need to check separately in Hebi.
“Shouldn’t we prepare a gift of apology to send to the Namgung family?”
“That too.”
Baek Il-woong nodded.
Certainly, what was the point of just saying ‘all the items I ordered were burned’ to Namgung’s family?
“After crossing the river, I will rest until the end of Missy (3:00 p.m.), so please find a suitable seat.”
“Yes, I will.”
Baek San-wu returned to the lead.
Baek Il-woong, who was thinking hard about something, asked Baek Seon-hwa, who was by his side.
“What do you think? What gift would you like to give to Namgung’s family?”
“Nothing we own right now won’t catch the eye of the Namgung family.”
“I guess so. Still, I can’t get over it barehanded. It’s because we couldn’t keep our promise.”
“Well, there is nothing that will satisfy the entire Namgoongse anyway. I don’t know if it’s one person.”
“One?”
“Yes, I think there is something that at least one person will like.”
“To whom do you want to give what?”
“Among the goods going to Ngcheonbu (Nanjing), there are old books that flowed in from Xi’an, right? It looks like it would suit a 10-year-old queen. How do you like it?”
“Since
I don’t know what the Sword King or the Blue Cloud Sword likes, I thought it would be good to stare at even the Ten Warriors. After all, the person who actually runs the Namgung family is the 10-year-old woman. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with showing her well.”
“That sounds good too. I will arrive at Namgung Family House by tomorrow evening. Until then, make sure to pick up old books that might be of interest to Empress Dowager Ten.”
“yes.”
Baek Il-woong looked at Baek Seon-hwa with a satisfied face.
She was not only a clerk, but also a great help in the operation of the corps.
Baek Il-woong’s gaze suddenly turned to one side.
A small wagon was following at a reasonable distance from the upper cove.
It is the kite’s carriage.
After hearing that he had a fight with his nephew a few days ago, I hope I don’t see him as much as possible, but somehow it seems to stand out more.
It’s a bit nerve-wracking that it pops up all of a sudden when you forget it.
If he is like this, how would his nephew, who is the party involved, feel terrible?
“Hmm! That carriage is here again.”
Feeling uncomfortable, Baek Il-woong unknowingly said something.
The expression of Baek Seon-hwa, who belatedly found the carriage, was also not good.
It was already famous in the upper ranks that he and the elders fought over harsh words.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a veteran or a wanderer, but you’re different.
As a result, the face of the eldest daughter of the ark of the Baekhwa Sangbang and the secretary of the Sangbang Sangbang fell to the ground.
With the belief that it would be forgotten with time, I tried to live as nothing happened.
However, his efforts were in vain in an instant.
Now that the wagon has appeared, the people of the upper ranks will talk about the practitioner again.
Baek Seon-hwa looked at the small carriage with mixed eyes.
Negative emotions such as resentment, regret, and hatred rose like a wave and covered the whole body.
As if I had been swept away by a real wave, my eyes widened and my breath suddenly stopped.
“omg! omg! omg!”
When Baek Seon-hwa’s breathing became rough, Baek Il-woong hurriedly comforted her.
“Wow! uncle is scary I guess you were thinking about me from the beginning?”
Baek San-wu did not answer.
In fact, wanting to see the bottom of the opponent was not the only wish of Yeon Jeok-ha.
He was curious too.
What was inside the young man who thrust his face in to beat the Murim master?
If he had wanted an apology, he might have thought otherwise.
However, he asked for 1,000 nyang.
At that moment, Baek San-wu abandoned the pity he had for him.
“I am pathetic for thinking of you for a moment. From now on, I will respond in the way of Kang-ho, not the merchant, so know that.”
“Kangho’s way? Are you outright threatening?”
When asked if it was a threat, Baek San-wu turned around.
“It is the last warning. No more fumbling around the top. It’s not even a matter of asking at least one of you.”
At Baek San-wu, who was staring at him with murderous eyes, Yeon Jeok-ha smiled and said,
“Yes yes. I’m trying to get used to it. Even if I asked you to apologize anyway, you wouldn’t have done it. I heard you asked to catch the pod from the beginning. isn’t it?”
“...”
Baek San-wu did not make excuses.
The strong by nature know no shame.
Isn’t it always the share of the weak in the checkup gangho?
“Only the strong can ask for an apology, and the weak have nothing but pity. Unfortunately, you missed your last chance to receive sympathy.”
He preached the truth of life to the thunder-naked practitioner and turned around.
He bit his tongue and suppressed laughter.
And when he got farther away, he grabbed his stomach and rolled his feet, liking it.
“Kkeuk! oh that’s crazy Only the strong can ask for an apology, and the weak have nothing but pity!”
Yang Il asked Yeon Jeok Ha, who was having fun imitating Baek San Woo’s tone.
“Are you that good?”
“Do you have to laugh or cry when you see a funny scene?”
“You even received a warning, how about keeping your distance in the evening?”
“why? Do you think he will come running with a knife?”
“Didn’t Baek Dae-hyeop say he would do it Kang-ho’s way? Sangbang is usually quiet, but once he turns his eyes away, he doesn’t care.”
“I don’t mind fire and fire even in normal times.”
“Yes, he said.”
How disgusting is a person who gently scratches the nerves of a department store in the morning and evening.
“Confucius-nim, I beg of you, please do not let the sparks fly to me. People from upstairs roll their eyes so much that I can’t digest it.”
“Your uncle, don’t you know the word Hugahouwei (狐假虎威)? Don’t just think about avoiding it, just enjoy it.”
“I am a bit scared. I can’t even kill a single fly.”
“You’re good at hitting the horse’s butt.”
“What is the difference between beating and killing? By the way, Gongja.”
“yes?”
“Why does Confucius hate Baeksojeo so much? Compared to the other heirs of the upper world, he seems pretty nice.”
“It’s not that I hate it.”
“Isn’t it because you don’t like it? Then why do you follow the department stores and harass them?”
“You kicked me out for saying the right thing. I’ve seen a lot of things that are just as awesome as this. If the baeks are vicious, the upper house is already over.”
“Ah, you’ve seen this a lot.”
Yang Il realized that he and Yeon Jeok-ha lived in a different world. It’s because you’ve seen a lot of bullying that clings to the top like a leech.
that evening.
As usual, Yangil parked the wagon not far from the rear of the white shop.
Then he diligently lit a fire and hung a pot on it.
In succession, shredded rice and dried mushroom jerky were added and boiled thoroughly.
It is the so-called ‘mushroom jerky porridge [香菇肉脯粥]’.
When the porridge of conversion was completed, Yang-il called out Yeonjeok-ha, who was stuck in the carriage.
It was after dark when the two of them filled their stomachs with mushroom jerky porridge.
When Yang-il fell asleep, the couple first sent him under the wagon to rest.
Maybe it was around the end of the hash (11pm)?
The escorts quietly approached while the enemy enemy was keeping the flickering embers alive.
Finally, Baek San-wu moved in Kang-ho’s way.
