Episode 974. Don’t
beat yourself up too much.
Even if it were the Chugukcheong of the martial arts department, it would not be as strict as this.
On the left side of the Yeonjeokha, the southern Jin warrior on the Geumuiwi and the Northern Jin warrior on the right were glaring at the three with tiger eyes.
The eyes of the fifty or so policemen behind the three were equally stern.
In an atmosphere of interrogation of high treason criminals, the guests who came to the 60th birthday party did not even breathe.
Yeon Jeok-ha, who was sitting in the seat of honor, opened his mouth.
“Even though I have a good tool called Bunkeun Chakgool, the reason I didn’t use it and gathered you all... is because I expected that the world would go well without using it. I hope you don’t disappoint that expectation. Do you understand?”
“yes.”
The three people responded unanimously.
“Who is Jeonju?”
“That’s me.”
Daedongjeonjang Son Uijeong Jeonju secretly raised one hand.
“Did you separately agree on the reimbursement date with Mr. Didn’t you?”
“...I did.”
Son Ui-jeong readily acknowledged it.
I couldn’t bear to deny it even in front of Jeong Do-jin.
“I agreed, so why did you accuse me again?” “That’s... I heard that it would be difficult to recover the principal
due to the lack of trust in the Sambopyo country...”
Is this a fart?”
“We did not interfere.”
“I heard that someone was sent to the Sambopyo country to commit acts of mischief? Is that a hindrance, what should I do?”
“That’s because the people who are originally going to do those things...”
“It’s done. Did you feed Chugwan money? Didn’t you eat?”
“...”
Son Eui-jeong looked at the guard before answering.
That’s why it matters how much they know.
However, it was difficult to know what was inside just by looking at the faces of the southern and northern warriors.
However, there is no point in confessing that he paid a bribe here.
“Daehyup I don’t know where you heard, but we don’t use bribes. That’s framed.”
Yeonjeokha asked the Bukjin Musa.
“Geumuiwiui will answer. Did that person give the money to Chugwan? Didn’t you give it to me?”
Bukjin Musa Dan Se-kwon answered right away.
“There were several times before that, but on the day of the accusation, the hermit paid 5,000 nyang.”
In an instant, the blood drained from Son Ui-jeong’s face.
Yeon Jeok-ha said to Son Ui-jeong.
“Is that so?”
Sohn Eui-jeong shouted, banging her head on the floor.
“Big deal! It is customary for the battlefield to pay a certain amount to the government! That has nothing to do with this case!”
“Yeah. There is a person more shameless than Green Forest Island. amazing.”
“...”
At Yeon Jeok-ha’s ridicule, Sohn Eui-jung shut her mouth tightly.
It’s because it makes no sense even if you think about it.
Yeonjeokha’s gaze turned to Chugwan this time.
“Hey, Mr. Chugwan. You tell me this time What did Jeonju say while giving the money?”
Chugwan Baek Woon-bong let out a long sigh before answering.
Since Geumuiwi is aware of his misconduct, it should be considered that it is over.
There would be no high-ranking official who would look after him in matters involving Namcheon.
“Son Eui-jeong asked ‘Please put Sambopyo Gukju in prison, even for a few months’. In the meantime, he said that he would take over the Sambo Bureau at a low price and sell it back to the Golden Horse Bureau branch. He said he would give me another 10,000 nyang of the hermit when the deal was over.”
Son Ui-jung, who had been listening quietly, jumped up and denied Baek Woon-bong’s words.
“Big deal! no! I never said anything like that! What kind of money do I have to take over the Sambo Country and sell it back to the Gold Horse Country? It’s all lies! It’s unfair! Look! Back Chugwan! Why are you dragging me in like a water ghost!”
Yeon Jeok-ha looked at Son Ui-jeong with strange eyes.
How dare you act like that despite the testimony of the Geumuiwi and Chugwan!
This is why torture technology has developed.
I can use Eonbeop (言法), but I can’t because it’s disgusting.
He immediately flicked his fingers, dotting the blood in his hand.
“Ouch! evil! Aaaaagh!”
To him, being a guide under the Yeonjeok River in Namcheon was something he was quite proud of.
When Jeong Do-jin wanted it so much, Yeon Jeok-ha did not hesitate any longer.
“Then please.”
“yes! Just leave it to me!”
On the spot, Jeong Do-jin called out the five elite soldiers of the Sambo Pyo-guk.
After a while, the two two-headed wagons of Seokgyeongjang moved slowly.
Jeong Do-jin took the lead as he did in his heyday.
Two guards were attached to his left and right, and the other two went back behind the two-headed carriage.
At some point, the leaders and trailblazers secretly put the flags of the Sambo Flags on the saddles.
Then, it seemed as if the Sambo-Pyoguo was escorting the two-headed wagons.
Namgoongyeon looked out the window and smiled.
“They are hard-working people.”
I felt like I knew what kind of person Jeong Do-jin was, seeing as he never missed even the slightest opportunity.
“why?”
Yeonjeokha glanced out the window.
But I couldn’t figure out what she was looking at and saying that.
“In the meantime, the name of Sambopyo has fallen to the ground. If it is known that the Sambopyo Country escorted Seokgyeongjang’s carriage... You and I will run to the Sambopyo Country, right?”
“I haven’t seen it that way, but Jung Guk-joo is a fox.”
“It’s because you’re so passionate about it. Because you can’t become the owner of the flag by doing like everyone else.”
“I thought he was doing it because he really respected me... but he gets hit in the back like this again.”
“Of course, I will have respect for you. I could see the sincerity in his expression. I think respect and taking advantage of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity are two different things.”
“If it’s your sister, then that’s it.”
Only then did Yeonjeokha relieve the slightly displeased feeling.
“But why did you do that earlier?”
“What?”
“I knew you would grab Son Ui-jeong and make him confess with a swollen bone. But you tried to solve it by talking to the goldsmith.”
Namgoongyeon looked at Yeonjeokha with a deep gaze.
He said, ‘I do it with the expectation that the world will go well even if I don’t use Bunkeunchagol’, but I thought there must be another reason.
“Actually, I’m thinking about what the right line is these days. As you know, I didn’t get a good look because I was directly involved. So I tried to handle it normally with the help of Geumuiwi. Because other people also mobilize connections.”
“I did, but Sohn Eui-jeong ruined the work?”
“that’s right. That person eventually made me use a bone graft. Even though the Geumuiwi gave it to you, it doesn’t matter that it wasn’t.”
“Don’t beat yourself up too much.”
Namgungyeon took Yeonjeokha’s hand.
The work of his father and brother seemed to have an effect on him.
The people closest to him resent him, so even pretending otherwise would be disturbing.
It would be nice to have a good relationship with the family on the wife’s side, but in the current situation, it was a long way off.
He who tries to keep the middle way, his father who is the leader of the Southern Alliance, and his brother who is ruined in the war with the Hocheon League.
No matter how much I think about it, there is no sharp solution.
***
Near SoHo.
I turned my gaze out the window.
It is the first time entering the village after leaving Ganghan Port.
It feels like the house of my younger siblings is not far away.
just as expected?
Jeong Do-jin, who was in the lead, came to the side of the carriage and said,
“Big deal! I will be arriving at my younger siblings’ house soon. The alley is too narrow for a wagon to enter... I will stop the wagon in an appropriate place.”
“Please.”
But an alley so narrow that it is difficult for a wagon to enter?
It bothered him that he hadn’t paid much attention to himself until he acquired ten businesses for Hefei.
After a while, the leader stopped when a wide empty lot came out.
The carriage did not advance further, probably because the coachman had been told.
Two double wagons stopped side by side in the clearing.
It is time for the family members of the Seokgyeongjang to get off the carriage and look around.
Three men who appeared to be Murim people quickly approached.
The three treasure troopers quickly blocked their way.
Then one of the men said while looking at Yeonjeokha.
“Namcheon Daehyeop! It’s the funeral day of Akseo-hyeon Sangdo-mun! The King of Swords has brought a letter to deliver to Namcheon Daehyeop!”
