Chapter 904 – 905. How Could a King Abandon His People?

905. How can a king abandon his people?

Jerk jerk jerk

Senior Lee Se-jin began to move on in a hurry.

It was because the call-up order was issued unexpectedly.

It was customary to announce the summons a day in advance.

In case of sudden call

Because each schedule can be completely twisted.

In a way, it could have been very disrespectful.

However, there was no hint of displeasure on Lee Se-jin’s face.

His face was bright and there was a smile on his lips.

As if something happy happened.

Hehe.’

Sejin Lee laughed inwardly.

It was because the good news came through the messenger.

It was the good news of the return of the leader.

The leader of the alliance and the greatest commander in chief

Uicheon Lord Jang Seon-woo

He finished all his work and returned to Meng.

How could you not be happy?

Originally, an organization must have a pillar that holds the center

It was an unwavering law.

In particular, in a chaotic time like now, the return of Jang Seon-woo, the leader, was bound to be a boon to him, the head of the leadership.

With him, the cluttered guild would be more organized.

‘I want to see you soon.’

Lee Se-jin quickly began to take his steps.

To see the proud leader.

How long has it been like that

The conference room began to come into view.

Jump

Sejin Lee opened the door without hesitation.

Then he began to see all the leaders except himself.

He somehow thought he was the last one.

“Sorry…I’m the last one.”

Lee Se-jin looked around the crowd and immediately apologized.

“No, we just came.”

Elder Han Kwang waved his hands and continued.

It was because they had just arrived.

“By the way, where is the Lord?”

“You haven’t arrived at the conference room yet. It looks like you’re arranging your clothes.”

“Okay.”

Lee Se-jin nodded and nodded.

As soon as he arrived at Meng, he was the leader who issued the convocation order.

He must have had no time to mend his clothes.

“Anyway, the Lord seems to take more time, so you should hurry up and sit here.”

Fang Fang

Han Kwang tapped the seat next to him a couple of times and continued.

“All right.”

Lee Se-jin immediately moved and took the seat next to Han-gwang.

“By the way, what is the reason for the sudden summons?”

Then he opened his mouth in a curious tone.

It was because he was very curious about the reason for the sudden summons.

“Hmm…Well…I haven’t heard of the details…Except that there will be major events…”

“Are you talking about a major event!?”

Lee Se-jin opened his eyes wide in surprise and opened his mouth.

“Yes, that’s what I said. There’s going to be an important announcement… The top leaders must attend.”

“…I’m very curious…What the big announcement is.”

Lee Se-jin made a questioning expression.

As soon as I returned to the Uicheon League, an important announcement was made.

What kind of announcement are you going to make?

“It’s the same for me… No, it’s the same for everyone here… It’s the official announcement of the Lord Lord, who has returned after two months.”

Han Kwang shook his head and continued.

What I was curious about was that, too.

“Do you have any expectations?”

Lee Se-jin’s eyes lit up at Han-gwang.

“…Hmm…I’m not sure, but…I think I received something from the imperial family.”

“Are you speaking from the imperial family?”

“Hasn’t the head lord gone to the imperial family for two months? Staying there for two months means that he’s received quite a bit of trust… He must have gained something great…”

Han Kwang continued with a soft smile on his lips.

Do you think that the Uicheon Lord might have obtained something great?

It was because it made me smile.

“If it’s something great…?”

“Something like subsidies…Legal benefits like tax exemption.”

“…Huh…Tax exemption…”

“Well, it’s not certain… I just made a guess.”

“I must hope that the prediction is correct… If so, the Uicheonmaeng will be able to become a blue dragon that can fly freely in the sky.”

Haha, I really hope so.”

The two of them spread their happy imagination and smiled.

It was because of the high expectations.

It was at the time when I was in the middle of laughing.

Kiki profit

Suddenly, the sound of hinges snapping reverberated throughout the meeting room.

The leaders turned their attention to the door, the source of the sound.

And could see

A door that slowly opens and a man and a woman appearing inside.

“Meet the lord!”

“Meet the lord!”

Soon, the leaders got up from their seats without asking anyone first and took the gun.

It was an extreme example for the chief officer of the Uicheonmaeng.

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen the elders.”

The man who received their greeting, Seonwoo, also greeted them with a light hug.

“Please sit down. Yes, I think that’s enough.”

Then, he stood in his seat and looked at the elders who were holding hands and opened his mouth.

Because I couldn’t let it stay like this.

“”Name!””

After hearing Sunwoo’s words, the elders answered in unison and quickly sat down.

“First of all, I would like to apologize.. I sincerely apologize for making the event shine like this despite the sudden summons.”
Sunwoo slightly bowed his head and apologized to them.

It was because I felt very sorry for calling them in by issuing a summons early in the morning.

“Don’t mind the obvious… No one has any questions or dissatisfaction with the summoning of the leader!”

“Never mind! We’re fine!”

At Seonwoo’s apology, the elders shook their hands and raised their voices.

It wasn’t a long time, but the good they went through was not the one who would order people to come and go for no reason.

He is the kind of man who issues a convocation order only when there is a suitable reason.

He was well aware of that kind of personality, so there was no dissatisfaction.

Surely there must be a good reason.

“Thank you for your understanding…Then let’s get straight to the point.”

Sunwoo expressed his gratitude and continued with a calm tone.

Then the elders began to focus their attention on Seonwoo’s mouth.

With very expectant eyes.

“I will resign as leader”

Sunwoo spoke in a calm tone.

“…”

For a moment, silence began to hang in the hall.

It was because everyone was making faces as if they were stunned by the completely unexpected bombshell remarks.

Seonwoo looked at them with calm eyes and waited patiently.

Until they can fully come to their senses.

How long has it been like that

“…Mighty…Lord…That…What…Are you talking about?”

Lee Se-jin, who came to his senses, stuttered and opened his mouth.

With a face that seemed like he couldn’t believe it.

“It’s literally… I will resign as the Uicheon leader… Right now, right here.”

Seonwoo gave strength and emphasized it again.

A clear intention to resign.

“What?!”

“What!?”

“No…Lord!”

“Nonsense!”

Then the voices of the elders broke out here and there.

It was because of his clear intention to resign.

“No, what do you mean by resigning from the leader! It’s only been two months since you took office! But how can you say that you’re resigning so easily!”

“Absolutely not! Isn’t it the leader who actually led the founding of the Uicheon League! But how can you say that you are resigning!”

“Currently, the Uicheon League is relying heavily on the reputation of the leader. If the leader resigns in this situation, the very existence of the Uicheon League may be shaken! Please reconsider!”

“Thousands of members believed in the leader and joined the Uicheon League, and followed them directly to this distant male prostitute! But how can you betray their faith!”

The elders began to vomit with reddened faces.

It was because he couldn’t accept Sunwoo’s intention to resign.

He is a symbol of the Uicheonmaeng that can show clear discrimination from the Cheonmumaeng.

He was an indispensable key figure.

If he resigns, the very existence of the Uicheon League becomes unclear.

“Now, everyone… Calm down for now.”

Seonwoo continued speaking in a calm, subdued tone.

“Does it look real now!”

Sejin Lee raised his voice in an excited tone.

It was because I couldn’t calm down.

“If everyone is excited, can’t I reveal the reason for my resignation?”

“You don’t have to reveal it! Whatever the reason, no one here will accept the resignation of the leader!

Lee Se-jin shouted at him with his face flushed.

There was no thought of accepting resignation.

From the moment he resigned, it was obvious that the existence of the Uicheon League would become difficult.

For as many as two months, day and night, the ideological blindness that laid the groundwork ended in a foolish act.

But how can I accept his resignation so easily?

It was nonsense.

“That’s right! I can’t accept it!”

“An individual leader’s decision will even shake the existence of the alliance! The Senate cannot accept such a decision!”

Soon, shouts of sympathy with Lee Se-jin’s words began to echo here and there.

Everyone agrees with his words.

“Even if it’s Hwangmyeong?”

Seonwoo opened his mouth as he looked at them protesting.

“…”

“…”

In an instant, the high-pitched voice that poured out here and there died down in an instant.

Everyone kept their mouths shut and fell silent.

It was because he knew the weight of the two letters Hwangmyeong better than anyone else.

“Emperor… Are you saying that His Majesty the Emperor… Issued an imperial order to resign from the position of leader?”

“As a result, it is… Because I was given a position by His Majesty the Emperor.”

Sunwoo shook his head and continued.

“…From His Majesty the Emperor…A position!?”

“That’s right… I unexpectedly made a merit… He gave me a position as a reward for it.”

“Then… Are you saying that you cannot carry out the position of leader by accepting the position?”

“That’s right… As you know, isn’t the relationship between the Crown and Murim inviolable?… As long as you’ve been given a position, you can’t assume the position of leader…That’s why I had no choice but to announce my intention to resign.”

Sunwoo spoke in a calm tone.

“…”

After Seonwoo’s words were finished, silence began to permeate the audience again.

It was because I thought the reason for his resignation was sufficiently convincing.

I was given a government post because of the imperial order, so how can I carry out the position of a leader?

Maintaining two identities was no different from deceiving the imperial family.

That’s why he has no choice but to convince.

“…You can’t give up your official position, can you?”

At that moment, Lee Se-jin, who was lost in thought for a moment, spoke slowly.

“I’ve heard that you can give up public office as much as you want at your own will… Even the Lord… Why don’t you… Give up your office?”

Lee Se-jin opened his mouth with a desperate expression on his face.

“Sorry.”

Sunwoo immediately apologized.

Because he couldn’t take his word for it.

“Why? It will become a gigantic armed group…It will be able to have a huge influence that cannot be compared to a mere government post…In such a situation… You don’t have to choose a position.”

Lee Se-jin looked at Seon-woo with serious eyes and opened his mouth.

‘…How come the reaction is the same?’

Seeing this, Seonwoo laughed a little inwardly.

Seeing Lee Se-jin react exactly the same as Ju So-yang, it was because laughter flowed out for no reason.

When he finds out what position he has been given, he too is astonished like Miss Ju-su.

“It’s not a place that can’t be put down carelessly.”

“I heard that the imperial family respects individual will very much… If you don’t want to, the imperial family will be considerate.”

“No, I won’t.”

Sunwoo spoke in a confident tone.

“How are you so sure?”

At Seonwoo’s words, Sejin Lee opened his mouth in a tone that seemed incomprehensible.
It was because I couldn’t understand his confident tone.

How can you be so sure without even trying?

“It’s a position that’s slightly different from an official post… It’s not a position you can quit just because you want to quit.”

“What the hell is that position, you mean you can’t just quit!”

Sejin Lee raised his voice as if he did not understand.

It was because his common sense did not understand Seonwoo’s reaction at all.

“It’s the king.”

Seonwoo opened his mouth with a calm expression on his face.

“…Yes?”

Hearing those words, Lee Se-jin put on a puzzled expression.

It was because Seonwoo’s completely unexpected words felt so unrealistic.

“His Majesty the Emperor sealed me as the King of Kings, and I received Sichuan Province as a fief. In recognition of my exploits in suppressing the rebels and saving the lives of His Majesty the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince.”

Seonwoo continued speaking in a calm, subdued tone.

“How could a king abandon his people?”

Seonwoo looked at Lee Sejin with a deep-seated gaze and opened his mouth.

Dump

Then Lee Se-jin knelt on the floor.

Thud

“Lee Se-jin, the elder of the Uicheon League, sees His Highness the Prince!”

And with his head on the ground, he let out his roar.

Fluff Fluff Fluff Fluff

Thump thump thump thump

The elders who watched the scene immediately followed Lee Se-jin and put their heads on the floor.

For he did not dare to sit arrogantly in the presence of the king.

“”Meet Your Majesty the King!””

And immediately raised his voice and shouted.

I mean, with an extreme example.

Sunwoo watched them silently.

With a very solemn expression on his face.
