Episode 435
At Jinmu’s words, not only King Young, but also Jongsan Kwak and Manpyeong Bang couldn’t close their gaping mouths.
Is this... crazy?
Beyond madness, he is so good at uttering words that make his fingers shrivel up. How is it that his arrogant words are not considered ridiculous at all?
“Ha ha ha ha ha!”
King Yeong, who had been staring at Jinmu without speaking for a long time, suddenly burst into laughter.
While everyone was in a daze, Dan, who laughed to the point of tears alone, waved his hand at Jinmu.
“That’s a lot of confidence. It’s the most heartbreaking thing I’ve ever heard. Moorim is himself...”
Seeing King Young shaking his head and wiping away his tears, Jinmu watched him with narrowed eyes as if trying to gauge his true intentions.
“Good. Admit it. Because you are the one who obtained Sapaecheon and the Demonic Cult.”
“...”
“Sit down for now.”
Jinmu, who slumped in his seat as if he couldn’t win, put on a sad expression.
The young king looked at Jinmu with a serious expression.
Seeing as he quickly restrains his emotions and tries to bargain, he is no ordinary guy.
The young king, who had been silent for a while, suddenly asked.
“What do you want?”
It’s blatant. It’s blatant.
I can clearly see that he intends to use me to achieve something.
But if I join hands with you, will I get more than your bottom seat?
Whatever you want, you will get it later from the real crown prince.
However, since ancient times, the merchant’s favorite word is “dada ikseon” (多多益善). For now, I stick to the king’s side and suck everything up.
In order to do that, you need to trust first.
With a clear identity, a clear fraud.
Once the person to cheat has been decided and they are already sitting together at the table, it is more than half the success.
In the middle of the day, I try to listen with my ears, so the probability of success is... ten percent.
“Isn’t there anything urgent?”
“Nothing urgent?”
Jinmu just nodded at the King’s question.
It would seem that the road that was blocked was finally opened.
What he wants is a prince.
Although he really believes in fakes, he will desperately need Moorim’s help at this point when Seochang is working hard.
“Oh. I have an advantage, so there is no need to rush.”
“You seem to have something in mind.”
The young king, unable to control his curiosity, trembled with impatience before Jinmu even put the bait on the needle.
“Tell me. I want to hear your thoughts.”
“...”
Okay, I’ll give you a big courtesy at this point.
Based on the words of Jwa Do-dok, Jinmu came up with an inference close to the core, considering the current situation.
“Right now, the king is in a sharp confrontation with the nobles. Even though I had left soldiers and alumni in my hands, I would be inferior compared to the nobles who enlisted all the ministers.”
“Um...”
“Isn’t securing the crown prince an urgent priority?”
“You are right.”
The young king nodded his head at the words he passed while looking at his eyes.
“Not too long ago, the Jeongmu-maeng made matters related to the crown prince open to the public.”
“I know. It is said that they sent a request to the munpa near Gansuk and made a siege close to the Cheonrajimang.”
“yes. Before coming here, I also contacted Sapaecheon and the Demonic Cult. Despatch the most elite unmanned soldiers.”
“hmm.”
“No matter how much it is said that the center of this affair is the Jeongmu-maeng, Sapaecheon and the Magyo are also in charge of one axis, so they will be in charge of at least sixty percent of the siege.”
“...”
“The Sapaecheon and the Demonic Cult do not move for righteousness. I have no desire to help the country. They only follow my orders.”
“What do you want to say?”
“That is the power I have.”
“...”
“According to my order, the crown prince may disappear from there without a trace.”
“What do you mean?”
Jinmu smiled and the King tilted his head, as if his thoughts were not immediately organized.
As of now, it could be said that Jinmura had the most money in securing the crown prince.
It meant holding all the keys in my hand.
“The majority of Seochang’s power was concentrated in Gansuk, right?”
“Yes.”
“Even the nobles and ministers will think that the Crown Prince is in Gansu.”
“...”
“What would you do if the crown prince suddenly appeared here when everyone’s eyes were focused on it?”
“ah!”
The young king felt a bright light in his head and opened his eyes.
If you deceive everyone’s eyes and secretly bring the crown prince to the ecliptic, they will receive an unexpected shock.
Even if the royal family finds out about it belatedly, there is nothing they can do about it.
Their goal is the death of the crown prince.
But wouldn’t the crown prince already have the strongest escort in the world called Jinmura?
Isn’t that why you can’t give Jinmu a mediocre position?
“That is difficult.”
“...?”
“Since His Majesty is a stranger, I can’t meet her...”
“Hmm.”
Jinmu pondered for a moment at the King’s words.
“It worked out better.”
“huh?”
“Because the noble side will think that it can propose something bigger than Your Highness.”
“ah!”
“Hot hot hot! Such exquisiteness! No, Your Highness!”
Admiration begets admiration.
King Yeong and Jongsan Kwak laughed as if they had already won.
“Wouldn’t it be nice to be sober on such a fine day! I will prepare a banquet.”
“cancer! Of course, leftists! You have gained a friend like your friend, so we should congratulate you.”
* * *
The night the alliance was formed.
Jinmu, who had been with them until late at night, left the home of Jwa Do-dok only in the morning.
Hwangshin and the children, and Cheongsang and Chungwoo, who joined later, were together.
He explained that he was late because he was dealing with Seochang’s hiders in the King’s Office, but it wasn’t a job that would be answered right away.
Needless to say, I went to call them and had an in-depth conversation with the young man who came late with me.
“Hurry up! I have a lot to do.”
“...”
Those who had fallen to the ground and wriggling at Jinmu’s urging staggered to their feet.
Anyway, since I knew that Geumgun couldn’t move, the safety of Yangjin, who was pretending to be fake, was secured.
No matter how much the three teams are mobilized and Cheonrajimang unfolds, Magyo and Sapaecheon will secretly open an escape route, so Jeongmu-maeng and Seochang will never be able to catch them.
Moreover, Jinmu gained a lot through negotiations.
A place to stay while living in Suncheon-bu and a temporary position to walk around the imperial palace at will.
It was said that it was difficult to receive the emperor’s teachings because of the royal consort, so the position that Jinmu and his party received was the lowest rank of alumni.
That was enough.
Even though he was the lowest rank, King Yeong said that he would order his alumni admiral to fully cooperate, so there would be no inconvenience even if he had a low rank.
“and!”
While thinking about this and that, Cheng-wu, who was guided by soldiers and arrived at the residence, opened his mouth wide.
It was worth it.
The abode where King Yeong left for Jinmu last night.
This was... It was a tile-roofed house like a whale’s back, enough for hundreds of people to live together.
In the meantime, the workers and the fertility guards settled down in advance and greeted Jinmu.
Youngwang is pretty quick at getting things done.
Perhaps it is to show one’s own distribution of giving when giving.
That means that expectations are high, and that the hidden insidiousness is greater than that expectation.
What the hell is he up to?
It doesn’t seem like it’s just to secure the crown prince, get rid of the nobles, and block the palace.
“Dongbo.”
“Yes, Lord.”
“From now on, you will closely escort the King.”
“yes? I am God’s personal escort...”
“I’ve said it nominally to protect him from the threat of recitation. From now on, you should know everything about the Young King.”
“Are you saying to keep an eye on the young king?”
“okay. Who you are, what you think, who you meet, what you eat, and how many times you poop a day.”
“No, even something like that?”
“...”
When So Dong-bo’s voice rose slightly, Jinmu looked at him with a displeased expression.
“Hmm, my brother has a very long tongue. I think I can cut the rope and jump rope.”
“Come on, little boy! I’ll go and get rid of it right away!”
Seeing Jinmu’s bleak eyes, So Dongbo disappeared at the speed of lightning.
It will be like that sooner or later.
These days, my hair has become a bit thick, so I fold it once.
When should we make a fuss as a group?
“Now then, what do we do now? There is still some time left to ask Se-chan to find the real crown prince.”
I thought I needed to know a little about the situation going back to the country.
So Dong-bo will know about King Yeong, so he should put aside and learn about Consort Consort.
Jinmu turned his head and looked at the Emperor and the Grand Palace.
“...!”
Jinmu shook his head a couple of times at the sight of them trembling and nervous, as if he had suddenly caught a chill.
yes this is overkill
It’s not the King of Queens, but infiltrating the imperial palace and asking them to find out about the queen is a little...
Yes, it can’t be helped.
I must have received the title of alumni professor.
I have no choice but to hit it directly.
Take this opportunity to tour the imperial palace.
