Episode 166. A quick-witted guy (1)
‘Ho, Ho-soon and the Ten Swords were all beaten… How could this be so ridiculous!’
Zhang Yang, who had left the imperial palace and secretly followed the fireman, had her eyes wide open to the point of popping out.
Jangyang had brought all of his henchmen besides Hoshun.
They all use one sword, but when I saw the ten swords and Hosun, I was terrified.
‘Old military. You have to bring in an army. Otherwise, there is no chance.’
“What are you guys doing there?”
At that time, a long-haired general with a long wife spotted Jangyang and his party and rode a horse.
“Go back too. Ojo.”
“Your eldest son.”
“You hit him, wait for the time, and come back.”
“yes.”
A man called Ojo rode a horse and ran towards the man holding a hat, and Jang Yang led more than a dozen of his men and fled toward the imperial palace.
“Ahhhhhhhhh …..
” I turned my head to see Ojo falling from his horse, dripping with blood.
Following the person holding the hat, several riders appeared.
“Damn Sanghyun.”
“Your eldest son.”
“Take your men and go fight them.”
“yes.”
Sanghyeon and Lee Rang led ten of their men to meet the opponent.
Zhang Yang watched as his subordinates and the fireman’s party clashed with only two of his close escorts remaining.
“What crazy! Where are those monsters…”
Jangyang ran towards the imperial palace in fright when even Sanghyeon and Rang couldn’t withstand the opponent’s commanders for a few seconds and their necks ran away, and the others fell like autumn leaves.
“Are you Jang Yang? Six crabs!”
Jangyang’s whole body got goosebumps at the sound of someone shouting after him.
“I hee hee hee.”
“yes.”
“Stop them.”
“I see.”
Zhang Yang sent two of his subordinates and rode away like mad.
‘They know me…the imperial palace is dangerous.’
I wanted to mobilize the army, but it took time. And now it seems that the army will not be able to mobilize either.
If the fireman had broken his technique at once, he would have put a hint on the emperor’s unconscious like he did.
The army came to be mobilized rather than by the fireman.
As Zhang Yang fled, he thought furiously about what to do next.
* * *
“Even if he misses something, the only place he can go is the imperial palace, so let’s take him to the imperial palace.”
When the fireman nodded, Zhang Gui put the half-fazed Hosun on the back seat of the horse.
After a while, the royal family, including Liu Bei, arrived at the imperial palace, and the curator took Hao Shun to visit the emperor.
There were several needles stuck in Hosun’s neck.
Usually, you have to go through several procedures to see the emperor, but since everyone from his aides to the camouflage who escort the emperor already knew the emperor, he was able to meet the emperor right away.
The painter said that Zhang Yang had sent assassins to assassinate him, and that he had brought Hosun, who was not yet dead, as proof.
“…If Lee is the henchman of Empress Zhang Yang, there will surely be people around him who will recognize his face.”
After the fireman finished speaking, the emperor looked at the eunuchs around him.
“Has any of you seen Lee Ja’s face?”
“Yes, he’s someone I’ve seen several times before Empress Zhangyang.”
“I also saw him several times in front of the ten queens.”
“…..”
Surprisingly, many people knew Hosun’s face. Not only the eunuchs, but even the chiefs of the escort knew someone.
This made it clear that Hosun was Jangyang’s henchman.
The hwabu approached Hosoon’s side and lightly touched the saliva on the back of his neck before opening his mouth.
“Now all you have to do is open your mouth. Apparently, even if you don’t open your mouth, you’ll know that Empress Zhang Yang sent you, but at least… shouldn’t you die comfortably?”
Ho-soon hurriedly opened his mouth as the painter pulled out one of the needles stuck in his throat.
“Now, Empress Dowager Zhangyang ordered me and my men to kill Councilor Hua.”
There was no trace of Hosun’s blind loyalty. What he needed most now was a comfortable death.
To him, the fireman was regarded as a god who could control even death at will.
“Why the hell did you ask me to kill you?”
The painter knew that, of course, a story related to the emperor’s hypnosis would come out of Hosun’s mouth. But even though he was his henchman, he didn’t know very much.
“I just follow orders, I don’t know why.”
“what! If you lie, you may not die.”
“Really. Really, I just do what I’m told. It is not permitted to know why.”
The fireman pulled out another needle stuck in his throat.
Hosun was in pain, but he kept saying the same thing.
The painter eventually gave up further interrogation and told the emperor.
“I don’t know why Her Majesty Empress Dowager Zhangyang wants to kill me, but I don’t think this case can be tolerated.”
“Tsk tsk, Yang Yang is really crazy. What are you doing? Go and get Jangyang right now.”
“yes.”
Several of the guards rushed out, and the emperor looked with interest at Hoshun, who had several needles stuck in his neck.
“What if I pull out all the needles?”
“All the pain I’ve been blocking comes rushing into my head at once.”
“I don’t have a right shoulder, and my stomach is stained with blood… I wondered how he could hold on and talk, and it was because of his saliva. If the pains come all at once… will you die?”
“You could die or you could go crazy.”
“I knew the medical skills were amazing, but to think that such a thing is possible with just a few saliva….. Do any city doctors know how to do that?”
“I don’t know.”
The painter shrugged his shoulders, and the emperor ordered a visit to the city council.
After hearing the emperor’s words, Pyeonwon looked at the spit stuck in Hosoon’s throat and swallowed dryly.
The emperor asked such an oblate.
“Can whiplash stop pain going to the brain?”
“I think I can do it if I try, but I don’t think I can do it unless I’m a sinner like that.”
“You say you can’t do it if you’re not a sinner? why?”
“Since the nerve bundle going to the brain was touched with saliva, even if the saliva is removed, there is no guarantee that the nerve will function normally.”
“Is this nerve damage?”
“yes.”
“Woe to you, Mr. Is whiplash correct?”
“yes. you’re right. Since this is a criminal who tried to kill me, I would not have taken this action if it had not been for this.”
“hmm! There are some sayings that whiplash is inferior to Buddhist monks in medicine… I guess that’s not the case.”
In an instant, Pyeon-won’s face turned red, and the painter made an apologetic expression toward Pyeon-won.
While doing so, the guards who had gone to capture Jang Yang returned.
They carefully guessed that Zhangyang was not in the imperial palace and had already run away.
“what! escape? Say it now! Catch him right now!”
In the mouth of the emperor, Jangyang, who had been called father until recently, was even degraded as a bastard.
* * *
Jang Yang’s aides, subordinates, and even the head of the imperial family were all searched for, but Jang Yang was not caught in the end.
The emperor arrested all of Zhangyang’s family and imprisoned them, and made them continue to search for him.
The painter treated the emperor for ten days, considerably restored his spirit and health, and completed the treatment.
Zhang Yang was not captured until the treatment was completed, and Liu Bei’s sworn brother said goodbye and went down to his new post in Anhui County.
After receiving a lot of gold and silk from the emperor, the painter said goodbye to Cao Cao and left the imperial capital.
I was on my way to Donguhyeon, leaving the imperial capital, but after 3 days, Eulji appeared in front of the fireman.
Usually, you have to send someone to come, but this time, for some reason, he showed up first.
“I haven’t seen you in a long time. Woe Master.”
“How did you know that I became a monk?”
“My ears are wide open to the extent that I know where Jangyang, who had a fight with Teacher Eo, ran away and is now.”
At Eulji’s words, the fireman’s eyes widened slightly.
Suddenly, he remembered what he said he would think about how to help himself before parting.
“Jangyang’s whereabouts are still unknown even in the imperial palace, but Bishop Eul knows?”
“yes.”
“Where are you?”
“I’m going to Brother Jangsun, the chief of Eoyang County.”
“If it’s the brothers Janggeo and Jangsoon…they are the bishops of Yuju.”
The painter had previously heard from Eulji about the bishops of each state.
“you’re right. Zhang Yang is their uncle.”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened.
“I thought he might be related to the Zhang Ge brothers, but it seems so.”
“The father of the Zhang Ge brothers is Zhang Yang. The Zhang Ge Zhangsun brothers are cousins of the Zhang Ge brothers.”
The fireman unknowingly swallowed the wind.
“This is amazing. Then, until now, the father of the Yellow Turban enemy has been sitting in the seat of a queen in the imperial palace?”
“yes.”
“If you knew that, you should have told me earlier. If that were the case, I wouldn’t have let Jangyang run away this time.”
“I didn’t know until recently.”
“Did you find out recently?”
“yes. Brother Bishop Jangge Jangsun sent a secret note to Bishop Myeong and me a while ago.”
Eulji and Myeongil were the bishops of Yeonju and Yeju, respectively, who were treated by Hwabu and returned to normal, but the bishops of other states did not know about it. Therefore, when we want to do something together, we secretly contact each other.
“What was written on the wheat paper?”
“The composition of the bishops of Jingju finally took control of Changsha, and they took control of Eoyang County. There was even talk of raising a rebellion together at the right time.”
The fireman suddenly recalled the memory of history and realized that this was the second rebellion of the Yellow Turbans.
“When is the time?”
“After three months.”
“Aren’t the two bishops going to agree?”
“Of course not. We belong to Congressman Hwabu, not them.”
“ha ha ha! Thank you just for the words. By the way, which side of the naan is bigger?”
“The army on the Eoyang Army side is stronger. Moreover, since the father of the deceased religious leader is also attached, the morale will be great.”
“okay. But isn’t Jangyang a eunuch? How can there be sons?”
“I don’t even know what caused it.”
“Well, it doesn’t matter. By the way, many innocent people will die this time too.”
“…..”
“If you wish, I and Bishop Myeong will assemble an army and follow your will.”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened.
Come to think of it, if the two bishops raise a righteous army, they will be able to subdue either side’s rebellion.
Shaking my head.
However, the fireman immediately shook his head from side to side.
“We don’t have to do what the imperial troops have to do. Just because we do it doesn’t mean people won’t die.”
“If you wish, Master Easang, you can change the world.”
thud.
The fireman’s heart sank in an instant.
“I said it before. If Bishop Eul and Bishop Myung want to do something, do it. But I will not intervene in it.”
