Chapter 870 – 871. Regards, Son-in-Law

Slippery

The king opened his closed eyes slowly.

Familiar faces began to come into view.

Dear wife and daughter

And he was a dumb asshole.

“Your Highness, are you awake?”

Mr. Kang, his wife, asked a question with a worried expression.

“I’m… I’m fine…”

The King Yeon waved his hand and continued.

I was a bit dizzy

I didn’t want to make you worry.

“Your Highness…I’m sorry…It’s all…My fault.”

Neung So-hwa continued his speech with an apologetic expression on his face.

It was because he thought that his father, King Yeon, lost consciousness because of him.

“It’s not your fault… I’m naturally high blood pressure.”

The King Yeon waved his hand and continued.

“More than that… I’d like to have a private meeting with my king, but… Could you move away?”

King Yeon looked at Mrs. Kang and Sohwa Neung as he spoke softly.

Then, the two of them slowly looked at each other and began to feel restless.

This was the reason why he was worried that it would be okay to leave Seonwoo and Yeonwang alone.

“I don’t intend to go on a rampage like I did before.”

The king continued his speech with an empty smile.

There was no sign of the same fiery momentum as before.

Sohwa slowly turned her gaze to Seonwoo.

There was a question in her gaze that seemed to be okay.

Nod

Seonwoo nodded her head without saying a word.

Accepting to have some alone time.

“…All right.”

Soon after, Neung So-hwa and Mr. Kang slowly began to get up from their seats.

Then she turned around and walked out slowly.

Kiki profit

Thud

Soon the door closed and only King Yeon and Seon Woo were left in the room.

“…”

“…”

When the two of them were left alone, awkward silence began to flow in the room.

Because no one was talking about it.

How long did that awkward silence last?

“…Hmm…Father…”

Sunwoo mustered up the courage to open his mouth.

Rather than being awkward like this, he chose to be friendly.

“Who is your father!”

But the answer that came back was only a stern cry.

“…”

It seemed like the wrong choice.

The already awkward atmosphere began to subside even more.

‘I’ll just shut up.’

Sunwoo regretted it.

It was because I opened my mouth for no reason and seemed to heighten the awkward atmosphere even more.

It was at a time when Seonwoo was in full regret.

“Kyunghwa was Chilsakdong.”

Soon after, the king slowly opened his mouth.

“What’s so urgent about temperament? I rushed out of the world before nine months were filled. Naturally, my body was inevitably immature compared to normal children. Well, of course, a child who should have had two more months came out after seven months Can he be healthy?… He suffered from high fever when the cold wind blew and got burned when the sun was hot. He was just a very fragile child.”

The King of Kings spoke in a voice that seemed lost in reminiscence.

And Sunwoo began to listen to King Yeon in silence.

“My husband and I have always wished for Kyung-hwa’s health. It’s okay if he’s not smart and it’s okay if he’s not beautiful, so I just want him to be healthy. Did that wish work? It was done. We are glad. The frail daughter is no longer immature. And now we wished for something else, that she might find a good match-mate and live the greatest happiness as a woman.”

The King of Kings spoke in a calm tone.

“Unfortunately, however, that dream turned out to be a dream that is not easy to achieve. It was because the child was appointed as a general. .”

“Yes, I know that too.”

Seonwoo shook his head and nodded.

The fact that So-hwa was the hero who suppressed King Jin’s rebellion

Because he wasn’t aware of it either.

“At first, both my wife and I were very happy, because being a woman to become a general was an unprecedented and unprecedented event in the history of the empire. But that joy did not last long. It was because I realized that it was completely blocked.”

The king continued his speech with a sad expression on his face.

“At first, numerous hawks flew in, and if you use the child who served as the shield of the imperial family to protect the imperial palace as your back, any family will be able to fly up no matter what family ascends to heaven… You bit him yourself. Do you know why?”

“I think it’s because she didn’t want her bound by her ministers…”

“Exactly, Your Majesty knew very well the power she possessed, because he knew very well that if one of the ministers embraced her in the family, that power would grow to the point of surpassing the imperial family. That’s why there are so many hawks. You defeated them all, saying you can’t give hard currency to those who want to eat beans.”

The king spoke in a calm voice.

“Like that, Gyeonghwa grew older year after year, and before I knew it, I reached the age when I was looking at Lee Rip. My wife and I were worried. We wondered if our daughter wouldn’t feel happy as a woman and would live alone for the rest of her life and die of old age. Then you appeared. Take it.”

King Yeon looked at Seonwoo with his straight gaze and continued.

“I’m really grateful… To that child who seemed like he would live his whole life alone… To have such a cool spouse… I’m sure I would have liked you, had I followed the proper procedures. “

“…:”

“Do you know why I ran amok for so long, and gave out a high-pitched tantrum I hadn’t in my entire life?”

The King of Kings opened his mouth with a stern expression on his face.

“It’s because my daughter doesn’t feel valued.”

His eyes started to twinkle.

“Aren’t you well aware of how important a woman’s fidelity is in Jungwon? If Gyeonghwa, who was never married, conceived a child, can’t you guess what kind of gossip it would cause? I didn’t do it, I didn’t care about the honor of my precious daughter.”

“…Sorry.”

Sunwoo lowered his head and apologized.

Because he realized he wasn’t wrong.

For her honor

It would have been more appropriate to delay the pregnancy further.

But he himself didn’t.

It was just an eruption of the desire to reproduce the species that wanted to make one’s own child.

“That makes me angry, my daughter who is more precious than anyone else… My daughter who is more lovable than anyone else… My daughter who should be happier than anyone else… I can’t stand thinking that my spouse is not even considerate of me. His anger soared. That’s why…That’s why he caused the uproar…I couldn’t just leave you alone.”

“…”

Sunwoo began to lower his head even more.

It was because he knew all too well that he was in a situation where he had nothing to say even if he had a hundred mouths.

“So you slapped me on the cheek with such a force as to kill me. I knew well that you were a master of Murim and that my hands were itchy, but I didn’t care, because I felt like I would go crazy if I didn’t vent my anger…”

“…”

“But the child stopped talking. The child, who had followed his parents like heaven, fought against me, and the child, who had not changed his emotions much as an adult, screamed in excitement.”

“…Sorry.”

“I didn’t mean to apologize… I just realized… Kyunghwa, whom I always thought of as a child to take care of, is now an adult. And I realized how much I value you. …He has matured enough to choose Jiabi himself.”

The King of Kings spoke with a smile on his lips.

“I think I still thought of Gyeonghwa as an immature child. It really can’t be anything other than a stereotypical accident. But after going through what happened today, I feel like I can break out of that rut… Thank you… In a way, it seems that I have had the opportunity to gain this realization thanks to you.”

“…Father..”

“But not all of my anger towards you has been resolved. It is said that it was done under an agreement, but it is also true that you lacked consideration. .”

“..Do you admit it?”

“Isn’t Gyeonghwa pregnant with your child? How can I not admit it? I’m angry, but I’m not cruel enough to make my precious daughter a single mother…My precious grandson a fatherless child.”

The king spoke in a calm tone.

“…Thank you…Really…Thank you.”

Sunwoo bowed his head and thanked King Yeon.

“Make sure you don’t ring the bell, but I will never forgive you if you do ring the child.”

“I will try to make her happy all her life. No, I will make her happy.”

Seonwoo gazed at Yeonwang with confident eyes and continued.

“That’s enough.”

Yeonwang, who saw this, continued with a soft smile on his lips.

“Please take care of me, son-in-law.”

The King of Kings slowly lowered his head.

Bowing one’s head is

It was an unbelievable act as a king

He didn’t care

It is because he is bowing his head not as a king but as a father with a daughter.

“I really appreciate you, father-in-law.”

Facing Yeonwang like that, Sunwoo immediately bowed his head.

It was because I couldn’t bear to face him while holding his neck upright.

Soon, the two men looked at each other and bowed their heads.

This is to show respect for the new relationship between father-in-law and son-in-law.

A few days later, Seon-woo and Neung So-hwa were able to safely conclude their engagement with the blessings of many people.

There were dissatisfaction on the faces of some ministers, but no one openly refused the order of Jeong Mun-mun.

*************

“…Can’t we stay a little longer?”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-woo with her eyes full of sadness and opened her mouth.

It was very sad to let him go like this.

“…I want to do that too… But if I delay any longer… I think it will be too late…”

Seonwoo opened his mouth with a puzzled look on his face.

In his heart, he too will stay here until the child is born.

He wanted to stay by her side.

This time, he wanted to properly fulfill his duty as a father.

But I couldn’t.

It was because he had a mountain of things to deal with while staying in the imperial family.

“Where… Are you planning to go?”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-woo with sad eyes and continued her words.

“I’m thinking of going to Uicheonmaeng for now.”

“Is it true?”

“Because I have to resign the position of leader.”

Sunwoo spoke in a calm tone.

The relationship between the government and Murim was inviolable.

They cannot interfere with each other at all.

That’s why I had no choice but to resign the position of the Uicheon Lord.

The position of king and the position of Uicheon leader are incompatible.

“…You’re going to a male prostitute.”

“That’s right..”

Seonwoo shook his head and replied.

The destination was a male prostitute.

It is the land of opportunity where the Uicheon League was newly established.

“…If I go now, when will we be able to meet again?”

Neung So-hwa looked at Seon-woo with her sad eyes and continued her words.

“…I don’t know…How long it will take…Because I don’t know…”

Seonwoo could not readily suggest an exact date.

It was because it was unknown how long it would take to establish and stabilize power.

“…Right..”

Growl

Soon, water began to form in the corner of the jacaranda’s eyes.

Do you think we have to say goodbye without a promise?

It was because of a deep, deep sadness.

Sunwoo stretched out her hand towards her.

Smack smack

And lightly wiped her watery eyes.

“I’m sorry… For not even making a proper appointment…”

“No…Everything…Isn’t it just…Not making promises…Because we don’t know?…I think it’s a lot more…Responsible…For us than making promises we can’t keep. Do…”

The trumpeter held back her tears and smiled as if she was fine.

She restrained her emotions, thinking that she couldn’t cause Sun-woo to worry.

Kkoooook

Seonwoo, who saw this, stretched out her arms and held her delicate body tightly in his arms.

“Sun… Sunwoo?”

“Sohwa, although I can’t promise a date to meet… I can make another promise… One is that I will come see you before the baby is born, and the other is that we will meet next time.” It’s a promise to marry you.”

Seonwoo held her tight in her arms and spoke slowly to her.

“Can you trust me and wait for me?”

“…I will wait… For you… To come… With my soon-to-be-born child.”

Jacaranda opened her mouth as her tears flowed.

It was because he was deeply moved by his sincere promise.

“Thank you…And…I love you…”

Seonwoo held her tighter in her arms and continued her words.

“…I love you too…My one and only…Sir.”

And the jacaranda pierced Seonwu’s wide chest and sang of her love.

The two hugged each other until the sun went down.

*********

“Everyone is left behind!”

Muyang looked behind her and let out a shout at her.

“There is not!”

Then the powerful voices of the disciples began to ring.

“Go a little further and you’ll be in Jinan! Cheer up!”

“All right!”

After hearing Muyang’s words, the disciples began to walk even faster with their eyes shining.

It was because his energy soared when he heard that his destination was not far away.

‘The Wonderful Guys’

Seeing this, Muyang looked at the disciples with a satisfied expression.

It’s possible to get tired from the forced march, but you’re still working hard

Because I couldn’t help but look pretty.

‘They say it is Kunlun’s hope.’

The smile on his lips started to grow thicker.

“What are you laughing at so badly?”

Then a clear voice began to penetrate his ears.

He looked to the side and saw Sajounseol looking at him with a pitiful gaze.

“Kuhm keuhum, it’s nothing.”

Muyang sighed and continued talking.

“It’s nothing, but I saw with my own eyes that the corners of my mouth were tearing up in an unpleasant way.”

“…I just remembered something funny.”

“It’s peaceful, the main faction runs away to Jinan as if it were burned and kicked out, but I saw that they laughed when they remembered something funny.”

Unsul spoke in a sharp tone.

‘…No, what are you saying…’

And Muyang, who heard that sharp word, frowned at him.

What do you mean sharp?

“Oh, are you frowning?”

“It’s not like that.”

“No, did you think of anything that upset you this time?”

“…Sajo…Have I done anything wrong lately?”

“Does not exist.”

“Then why do you sharpen your tongue like that? Please tell me if there’s something I haven’t been able to properly serve.”

“There really isn’t.”

“No, then how can you speak so sharply!”

“Because I’m bored.”

Unseol continued with a non-trivial expression.

“The road is nine thousand li, so shouldn’t you play around with it?”

“…”

And when Muyang heard that, he shut his mouth tightly.

It was because I couldn’t think of anything to say.

“So don’t worry, it’s not your fault. If there is, it must be my fault.”

Unseol continued with a deep smile on his lips.

‘Damn it.’

Faced with that smile, Muyang thought.

He said that he should arrive in Jinan as soon as possible.

To escape from the clutches of this immature thought.
