Chapters 806 – 807. Gambling
“The Lord Gyeonghwa won’t intervene!?”
Seol Soo-beom, a left-handed dog, asked with a questioning expression on his face.
It was because I didn’t understand.
The person who could be said to be the culprit behind this situation was King Gyeonghwa.
But how can you say something like that?
“Prince Gyeonghwa is currently staying at Cheonmu-meng in Jinan. How could he intervene in what is happening in Jining?”
Currently, provincial commander Lee Geom-han is imprisoned in a prison located in Jinyeong.
But how could the King Gyeonghwa in Jinan protect him like that?
“How could she be staying in Jinan?”
Seol Soo-beom, the left-handed leader, asked with a puzzled look on his face.
He couldn’t understand why she was there.
“Isn’t it because of Bumadowi?”
“Bumadowi!?”
Seol Soo-beom looked at him with astonished eyes and asked.
Do you think the hardened lord has a friend?
It was the first news I had heard.
“It seems that the left leader does not know the truth about this incident.”
Udo Eosa Yanggyeong continued with a calm tone.
“The reason why the commander was dismissed in the first place is because of the sire.”
“Tell me in detail, what the hell happened?”
Seol Soo-beom asked him as if he was curious.
In response to his question, Yang-gyeong slowly began to explain.
About Murimsa they didn’t know about.
The dissolution of the Cheonmu League, the largest force in Moorim
Founding of the Uicheon League
Provincial Commander Lee Geom-han’s Opposition
And everything, even the appearance of the Hardened Lord.
The heads of the institutions listened to the words of Udo Eosa Yang-gyeong and began to look shocked.
It was because it was completely unexpected that such an inside story was hidden.
“So you’re saying that the Murim man named Jang Seon-woo is the bumadowi chosen by King Gyeonghwa?
“That’s right. Lee Geomhan didn’t know that he was a sire, so he made a mistake.”
Udo Eosa Yanggyeong shook his head and continued.
“You’ve been out of luck.”
“In a way, you can say he’s out of luck. If it wasn’t for him, he wouldn’t have been disgraced or imprisoned.”
“Now I understand.”
Seol Soo-beom, the left leader, shook his head as if he understood.
He had doubts
About her sudden appearance.
And I had some anxiety.
I wondered if she might have pulled out her sword to keep the imperial family’s organs in check.
But I thought it was a guess.
Everything is just a coincidence.
“The reason I’m staying in Jinan is to be with him.”
“Yes, I will probably be tied up in Jinan for a few months. Reorganizing and starting a new organization takes a lot of time.”
Yang Kyung nodded her head and continued her words.
“It’s an unexpected good news.”
“So we should make good use of this good fortune… Time is not infinite.”
Yang Kyung continued with a deep smile on his lips.
“…”
Seol Soo-beom, the left-handed leader, made a worried expression.
He was contemplating whether to accept his offer.
It was an exquisite opportunity.
A chance to destroy the evidence without being disturbed by the hardened lord.
But the risk was too great.
It’s because it’s a situation where you have to put up not only yourself, but also your family name.
Therefore, I was not able to readily accept the offer.
It was because the thought that it was right to bet on his family to save oneself dominated his mind.
“I will.”
At that moment, a faint voice began to echo through the room.
It was Wi Guk-hyeon.
“If I die, what will be the use of the wealth and fame I have achieved so far?”
He continued with his greedy eyes twinkling.
He was not a sacrificial man.
He is a human being who lives only for his own desires.
In the face of his own safety, the continuation of the family was not an important issue to him.
“I’ll do it too.”
Soon after, Yu Joong-ki, the commander of the Golden Guard, sympathized with Wi Guk-hyeon.
It was because he didn’t want to die either.
“Anyway, if the head is cut off with a bribe, the family’s prestige will be greatly undermined. In that case, wouldn’t it be better to gamble with everything?”
He continued with a twinkle in his calm eyes.
Taking bribes without the emperor’s knowledge was itself a deception against the imperial family.
They will not perish because of treason, but they will not be able to boast of the same prestige as before.
Yu Joong-ki didn’t want that.
A family without honor
A family without money
It was because I thought it was no different from a dead family.
“…”
After hearing their words, Seol Soo-beom put on a serious expression.
It was because he felt the firm will of the two.
At the same time, my heart began to waver.
Although it was a selfish choice, it was not without sympathy.
‘I…What the hell…What should I do?’
Seol Soo-beom struggled and struggled.
In order to arrive at the optimal conclusion.
How long has it been like that
“…I’ll join in too.”
Soon, Soo-beom Seol opened his mouth with a determined expression on his face.
It made a decision
I mean, I’m going to take part in the destruction.
“This is a wise decision. Leftist.”
Hearing those words, Udo Eosa Yanggyeong continued with a bright smile.
“I’m sure there will be good results.”
Yang’s smile began to deepen.
************
“Huh…”
Provincial commander Lee Geom-han stared blankly into space with a dejected expression on his face.
It was because I didn’t understand the situation itself now that I was stuck in prison.
‘This…Is a dream…It must be a dream…It is not a dream…’
He thought.
That everything would be a dream
If you close your eyes for a moment and open them, everything will change.
Not a cold, damp, dark prison
It would be a warm and cozy bedroom.
Back
Lee Geum-han closed his eyes.
Slippery
Then he carefully began to open his eyes.
‘Ahhh.’
And Lee Geom-han was in despair.
The place that unfolded before my eyes was still a prison.
A cold, damp, dark prison.
“Aaaaa!!!!!”
Soon, Lee Geom-han’s screams began to resonate all over the place.
Everything was real.
The fact that he was lost
That he was imprisoned
The fact that he was deprived of all power and wealth is all.
“Save me! Please save me!!!!!! Save me!!!!!”
He begged and begged.
Please save yourself
To get them out of this terrible place.
“If you take money and eat it, you don’t have to work! Please save me!!!!!!”
His screams began to grow more and more desperate.
How did you scream like that?
Kiki profit
The sound of the iron door opening began to ring in his ears.
Lee Geum-han quickly turned his head toward the door.
It was because he had a mind of his own.
But soon, he had a blatantly disappointed look on his face.
It was because the one who showed up was not the one he wanted.
“…Jotae…”
Sigh
Lee Geom-han gritted his teeth and glared at the man who appeared.
“Are you safe in prison? Commander.”
The man who appeared, Ju-tae, the commanding officer, continued with a calm tone.
“What kind of face did you show up here!”
Lee Geom-han glared at him with an angry gaze and raised his voice.
It was because he didn’t look good after changing ships in an instant to Lord Gyeonghwa.
“You’re not coming from a place I can’t come to, are you?”
“You cheeky nooooom!”
Lee Geom-han raised his voice with his face blushing.
“They won’t come, Commander.”
Ju-tae continued to speak with a calm expression on his face.
“…What are you talking about?”
“I’ve already filed an appeal to His Majesty. I wrote down the details of your corruption. Probably, a purge is taking place in the imperial family by now.”
“…”
“But how can I come to your aid? With their lives at stake. So expect nothing. For without hope there is no hope, and without hope there is no despair.”
“Did you file an appeal yourself?”
“Yes…Probably His Majesty the Emperor…Directly…”
Haha~!!!”
Then Geomhan Lee started to burst into laughter at her loudly.
Like it’s very fun.
“How are you laughing!?”
At the sound of his laughter, Do Commander Ju-tae asked with a puzzled expression on his face.
It was because his sudden laughter was incomprehensible.
How could he burst into such a delightful laugh in a situation where even despair would not be enough?
“You bastard…You’re really naive.. Haha.”
Lee Geom-han began to speak with tears in his eyes.
“What the hell does that mean!?”
“A guy like this is a provincial commander… Did he use a bribe or something?”
Lee Geom-han continued with a mocking voice.
“Tell me right! What do you mean!”
“Do you think the appeal you posted will reach the emperor?”
Lee Geom-han smirked and continued.
“No way…You mean it’s stolen in the middle!?”
Haha, this is a masterpiece, but a masterpiece.”
“This is nonsense! The only person who has the authority to open an appeal is the Son of Heaven! Only His Majesty! But who the hell is going to open it!”
Ju-tae shouted with an expression that seemed to make no sense.
Only the emperor could open an appeal.
But how can such an appeal be withheld in the middle?
“Tsuttuk, naive bastard. If everyone had followed the imperial family’s law school properly, would the imperial family’s institutions have accepted and ate the bribes sown by the principal? Why don’t you think a bit?”
“…It can’t be.”
Ju-tae made a shocked expression.
He was aware to some extent that the organs of the imperial family had rotted.
However, it was completely unexpected that even the appeal to the emperor would be stolen.
“Keukkeukuk… You will die.”
Lee Geom-han continued his speech with a funny expression on his face.
“What… What!?”
“It’s not just you… Comrade Dow Commander Hwang Geol… Me too… No, everyone in the Do Command Sasa will die!”
Lee Geom-han raised his voice with a mad smile.
“Don’t laugh…Don’t laugh! They…They can’t be like that! How can they kill us, His Majesty’s servants, even though they’re the worst!”
It was treason to kill a servant of the emperor.
But how come they have such an irrational number?
It was nonsense.
“They don’t have a choice anyway. If it turns out they’ve taken bribes, they’ll be decapitated.”
Lee Geom-han smiled like he was having fun and continued.
“This is treason! It means that not only you, but also the three tribes could perish!”
Ju-tae raised his voice while making a nonsensical expression.
If it was just bribery, it could have been all done by simply cutting off the head.
It was said that the family was not harmed.
But how can you be afraid of running away, gamble with your family name?
It was nonsense.
“What does that have to do with it? It looks like it’s going to run off its own head?”
Lee Geom-han let out an unpleasant laugh and continued.
“Power is like an opium. The more you get drunk, the more you want to taste it and the more you crave it. But do you think they can let go of it? There will be no. To destroy all evidence!!”
Lee Geom-han continued his words with a twinkling look in his confident eyes.
Because he was a man mad with power more than anyone else
He was sure
That no one would let go of power
He said he would do everything in his power to destroy evidence.
Haha, you guys made a mistake! You should have entered the imperial family with the Hardened Lord from the beginning!”
“I… Damn it!”
The provincial commanding officer Ju-tae made a serious expression and spat out curse words.
It was because I felt that the situation was more serious than I thought.
“Kuhahahahahaha, the road to the underworld won’t be lonely!”
Seeing that serious expression, Lee Geom-han let out a mocking laugh.
It was because I thought that at least the road to the underworld would not be lonely.
“Damn”!
Ju-tae ignored Lee Geom-han’s ridicule and started to move outside.
It was because he thought he couldn’t die.
“Strive as much as you like and try your best! You won’t be able to survive that way, but!!! Haha”
Lee Geom-han looked at Joo-tae’s back as he left and began to burst into laughter.
It was because it looked so ridiculous that he was trying to somehow survive.
“Yes…Everyone will die…Me too…You too…Everyone.”
Lee Geom-han’s mad eyes began to shine.
