Chapter 330

Episode 330. Corruption Management Crisis (1)

“Huh! What is so messy?”

Upon entering the office, Xia Hudong tilted his head at the sight of the various officials busy moving.

As for officials, if they were of a lower rank, they wouldn’t know, but even if they are middle-ranking, they don’t run around in pretty much anything.

Ha Hu-dong grabbed a passing official and was about to ask him, but when he saw the governor in the distance, he approached it.

“Gong Tae-soo. Did something happen?”

Ha Hu-dong gave a considerable amount of the bribes he had received to Tae-soo Gong, so they became close enough to treat each other in private.

“Doesn’t the Daechangryeong know that a new governor is coming soon?”

“I heard about it a few days ago, but is that such a big deal?”

“Oh, this man. They say that there are many people in the imperial palace who know him, so he’s an innocent man.”

“What do you mean?”

“The person coming after me is Taesoo Hwabok.”

“Who is Hwabok Taesu? Ha Nae-gun’s Hwabok Taesu-nim is coming?”

Hahudong’s eyes, which had been making a nonsensical expression until now, widened.

Since Ha Nae-gun is facing Nak-yang and Han Nam-yoon, I have heard from time to time what happened there.

In this chaotic world, he was praised by the people of Dong-gun and Hana-gun by taking care of the administration fairly and honestly without caring about self-interest.

To be praised by the people means to be strict with the officials, and it also meant that the officials should be more and more honest.

“I am surprised now. Since he is famous for slitting the head of an official who has committed corruption... Daechangryeong, don’t be lazy, hurry up and get ready.”

Gong Tae-soo’s words brought Ha Hu-dong to his senses.

The word “slitting one’s head” was not simply an indirect expression of dismissal from office. In fact, it was an era where heads were cut off using jakdu, and Hwabok was already a governor who blew the heads of highly corrupt officials countless times.

“Ha, but the governor of Hwabok... he was a man who ruled well over the Dong-gun and Hana-gun, but why was he suddenly demoted to Nakyang, which has not yet been reconstructed...” “Do you know Nandle

? I heard that Eosa Daebu made a request to Mupyeonghu.”

“Are you a fisherman? no, anyway At some point, Lukyang to Eosa Daebu, who occupies the southern border...”

The thought ran so fiercely in Hahudong’s head that it made a pinging noise.

I couldn’t, but the fact that I did was that maybe the owner of Lukyang had already changed from Jojo to a fireman.

‘What the hell happened in Giju?’

“Did Eosa Daebu at least save Mupyeonghu’s life in Giju?”

“How can I even know that? But what is unusual is that Governor Hwabok is coming with an army of several hundred thousand men.”

“yes? Are you going to be appointed as Taesoo and lead hundreds of thousands of soldiers?”

Hahudong’s eyes widened again.

With most of Cao Cao’s soldiers going to Qizhou to fight Yuan Shao, who would have hundreds of thousands of soldiers?

The owner of Luoyang is the owner of the soldiers, and the owner of the soldiers must be Eo Sadaebu.

“Yeah, because of that, even the swordsmen and generals are very nervous about what’s going on.”

It was unusual.

Since something so unbelievable was happening, it was almost impossible, but I still doubted it, so I asked one last question.

“Didn’t Governor Hwabok send the soldiers of Dong and Hana’s army to Giju for this war?”

“I know it was sent... but I don’t know too well. I sent someone to find out what happened, but they haven’t come yet. Anyway, they say they are coming with a large army, so if they prepare carelessly, they will strike the gyeong.”

“I have to go quickly and prepare to greet the new governor.”

Ha Hu-dong was in a hurry, so he moved on without even preparing himself.

When Hwabok politely declined, Gong Tae-soo put on a slightly puzzled expression, but nodded.

“If that’s what Taesu Hwa wants, then I’ll leave the carriage empty.”

“Why do you leave the wagon that you dragged so hard? Coincidentally, the wagon carrying the wounded on the battlefield was very cramped, so let them ride.”

At Hwa-bok’s words, not only Gong Tae-soo but also most of the high-ranking officials put on an absurd expression.

“It’s a wagon prepared for Taesu-sama, but how insignificant.

“Each of those soldiers helped me a lot to save my life. They are the ones who were injured by sending them out to save their own lives, so what would be the point of giving them a wagon?”

Gong Tae-soo looked at Hwa-bok’s determined eyes and couldn’t refute further.

“That’s right. It is better to carry a wounded soldier than to go in an empty carriage.”

“Yu Dodok.”

“Yes Taesu.”

“Choose those who are in critical condition among the wounded and let them ride in the wagon.”

“I am very grateful to Taesoo Hwabok for his consideration.”

Liu Bei bowed her head toward Hwabok and moved about 10 seriously injured soldiers to the wagon.

It was only ten people being moved, but in the eyes of the soldiers who saw it, Hwabok Tae-soo looked like a completely different person from before.

Gong Tae-soo looked at Hwa-bok and the generals and clicked his tongue inwardly.

‘That’s why the people of Dong-gun and Ha-nae-gun praised him so much. From now on, the spring days of the officials here in Luoyang are over.’

It was enough for him to take over and go to his new post, but the remaining officials imagined that the voices of the remaining officials would spontaneously groan.

While the painter was quietly admiring his brother’s way of life, Ha Hu-yeon approached.

“I haven’t seen you in a long time. Master Eosa.”

“Yeah, it’s been a while. I heard from my brother Jo that he was seriously injured while fighting the Xiliang army, are you feeling better now?”

The painter used honorifics even though he had a position that made it easy for Ha Hu-yeon to speak.

“It wasn’t that I was seriously injured, but I couldn’t ride a horse for a while because I was hit in the butt by an arrow, but now I can still ride a horse.”

“Can I look at you for a moment?”

“If Eosa Daebu sees it, it’s an honor for me. Let me ask you a favor.”

“yes.”

The fireman inspected the area where the arrow had been hit and secretly showed his clairvoyance to look inside the pelvis.

Somehow, there were some scars on the skin, but there were no signs of injury on the inside of the pelvis.

‘what? Are you too fine? Did he get hit by an arrow?’

The fireman wondered, but he nodded without saying anything.

“Fortunately, you recovered quickly.”

“yes. If I hadn’t been hit by an arrow at that time, I would have made a big contribution to the war against the elements this time... Ehhh~”

The painter listened to Ha Huyeon’s sigh and thought about it more deeply without letting go of the string of questions he had heard for a while.

In the historical knowledge he knew, he thought of Ha Hu-yeon.

‘A longevity who should have followed Cao Cao and fought Yuan Shao is in Luoyang on the pretext of injury? What happened? Are you up to something? There are too few soldiers in Luoyang for that?’

Cao Cao had only 30,000 soldiers left to defend Luoyang. If the relationship between Hansu and Ma Teng were not bad, they would have left an absurdly small number of soldiers.

‘Is there something in Nakyang that Eulji Danju can’t figure out?’

I was reluctant for some reason, but I didn’t think it would be a threat because I would know if I investigated more, and even if there was something hidden, I would have 250,000 troops stationed in Luoyang.

‘I’ll have to watch it for now.’
