Chapter 277

Episode 277. Hiding power from the world (2)

After Jojo took the emperor, he was closely monitoring the situation of the surrounding feudal lords.

All of those who had previously held the Emperor in their grasp were not well-spoken. He never wanted to be like that.

In the meantime, a funeral message from the princess came up to the imperial palace.

Zhang Jie, of course, went to Cao Cao first before the emperor.

Cao Cao knew that the princess of Yezhou had started a war because of Do-gyeom’s provocation, but he did not know the details because Luoyang alone had too much work to do.

“The fireman participated in the war and temporarily served as the commander-in-chief and led the war to victory! Heh heh.... Well, there are Lu Bu and Woo Jin, the strongest generals in the world.....”

Jojo was actually cheering inwardly as Ye-ju and Seo-ju fought this time.

Yeju was the base of support for the original city, so there were many castles that could be occupied without fighting. That’s why they thought that even if the two fight and whichever wins, they can easily take two weeks because they are in a state of exhaustion.

“I recommend the painter to the Yeju company and the pottery to the Seozhou company... well, that’s not bad. If the flower pots and flower pots become their own company, half of them can be considered my land, so there is no need to create a problem.”

When Cao Cao read the Zhang Gui and was satisfied, Sun Wook, who was next to him, opened his mouth with an expression of regret.

“This is really good news. All the gazes of the feudal lords are already on the Duke of Ju, but if the two agendas become the daughters of Ye-ju and Seo-ju, they will naturally be kept in check. It will be difficult to move quickly.”

“yes. On top of that, Sun Ce from Yangju’s side is also on good terms with Hwabu, so they can be half allies.”

“Sun Ce is like a tiger, so even if he has a good relationship with the fire priest, the priest, it is difficult to say for sure in the future.”

“In the future, the imperial capital will be stable and the feudal lords will bow to me, so Sun Ce will be no different. The important thing is that I have two feudal lords who will support me right now.”

“It is. In particular, Hwabu Eosa-seung, who is on the agenda, will be of great help to the lord, as he has gained a lot of trust from various feudal lords due to his righteous deeds over the past 10 years.”

“I was thinking of moving the capital to Hedo soon, but if the fire department became the company of Yezhou, there would be nothing to worry about.”

When Cao Cao was happy, Shun Wook took another step.

“Heodo is a large city in Yeju and close to Luoyang, so it is a perfect place to transfer the capital. After the transfer of the capital, if the Duke of Zhou strengthens his relationship with the monk Eosa, I think I can send Hwabok, the eldest brother, to the company in Cheongju.”

“That’s a good idea too.”

When Cao Cao and Shun Wook were happy, Guo Jia, not knowing the relationship between the painter and Cao Cao, tilted his head.

“Jugong Hedo is like the heart of Yezhou, so would the fireman give it up easily?”

“He is on my agenda. We didn’t share blood, but we shared lives.”

“But there is no one in the world who would like to have their rice bowl taken away from them. Even between siblings, it is people who fight over property.”

“Are you doubting the relationship between me and the fireman?”

“.....”

Guo Jia couldn’t answer and lowered his head, and Cao Cao’s eyes turned ferocious.

“Answer me?”

“The only person I am loyal to is the Duke of Zhou.”

“I see you don’t believe in my agenda, so why don’t you make a bet with me on whether or not he’ll let you in?”

“My bet?”

Guo Jia made a puzzled expression at Cao Cao’s sudden suggestion.

“I bet that the painter will allow you to enter, and I bet that you won’t.”

“Since the governor is the brother-in-law, I will not oppose it. Instead, I would put some conditions. I’ll bet he puts the conditions.”

“condition? What conditions?”

“Since the brother-in-law, the Duke of Zhou, has become a non-Jeonghu, if he is greedy, he will want a decent official position.

“Haha you don’t know my agenda too much. If he had wanted to, he would have held a higher official position than Master Eosa.”

Hearing Pyeonseon’s answer, the fireman was proud of her and felt sorry for the reality of being caught in the middle of a war.

During the battle between Yeju and Seoju, many soldiers died and the number of orphans increased to an incalculable number.

In particular, it is not an exaggeration to say that Xu Zhou, already devastated during Cao Cao’s invasion, became a wreck after being invaded by Ye Zu.

As a result, many refugees from Xuzhou were coming to Yezhou in search of food.

Yeju was not in a good situation, but it was not a battlefield, so it was possible to survive even with super-rooted neck fatigue.

“By the way, I saw today that there are many children in the house... Do you know what happened to your wife?”

“ah! those kids That’s... these days there are a lot of orphans... I got my mother’s permission and brought them into the manor.”

“Are there too many for that?”

“Actually, Sarah and I have been taking in orphans from the neighborhood for some time now, educating them, and taking care of them so they don’t starve to death. They are a little bigger than Rangi... I was so sorry to see them starve to death and freeze to death on the street.

Pyeonseon bowed his head with a very sorry expression, but the painter was very moved to hear her words.

Even if the orphans who came into the painter’s house and ate food today could not do it, it seemed to exceed one hundred.

‘At an age when there was no concept of an orphanage... My wife and Sarah were running an orphanage!’

“Hehe, I guess you were doing something good that I didn’t even think of! This is so... but how are you making that face?”

“It costs a lot of money, but I didn’t get permission from my husband.”

“Isn’t that what your mother already allowed?”

“Still, I didn’t even tell you...”

“Were you thinking about that? ha ha ha! Then don’t worry, you can collect more children. Wouldn’t it be okay if I cut down on my food?”

At the words of the fireman, Pyeonseon’s face was moved.

I thought what if someone blamed me for spending money sparingly, but my worries disappeared in an instant.

“Thank you for allowing me, sir.”

When the pyeonseon came into his arms, the painter held the daughter he was holding with his right arm and hugged her with his left arm.

“By the way, the number of orphans seems to be quite large. Isn’t there a shortage of money?”

“It’s okay because La and I are half burdened.”

“Half Sarah? Obo wouldn’t be able to make that much money, would it?”

“Sarah’s brothers paid a very large sum of money a while ago. That’s why I’m taking care of all those orphans.”

“ah! If they helped, I wouldn’t be in need.”

“As I raised orphans, there are so many smart and talented children, so I think they will become great equals to the painter and the country in the future.”

“They’re enough for my wife to say so...”

“Yes.”

“I want to see what kind of children they are.”

“The children still wanted to see Nanggunim.”

“Children me?”

“Me too, and I talked a lot about Mr. Nanggun.”

“What do you have to tell your children about me?”

“A lot. Nanggunim is my idol, but also the idol of the children.”

“I haven’t even seen the kids yet, so it’s a burden.”
