Episode 257
‘What is this…’
On the surface, it looks like it was done very easily.
But in fact, no one in the operating room knew that that was not the case.
Jin Cheon-hee spoke calmly to the surprised lawmakers.
“what are you doing? “I need to prepare to suture it quickly.”
“Uh uhh….”
“Are you going to skip lunch?”
“Yes no!”
Only then did everyone in the surgery room come to their senses after hearing Jin Cheon-hee’s words.
Jin Cheonhee said cheerfully.
“I heard they’re giving me fried chicken today.”
chicken.
It’s modern capitalist Kentucky Pride!
On a day when Jin Cheon-hee couldn’t stand the craving for chicken and beer, the chef ate the food she fried herself in the kitchen and fell in love with it.
Jin Cheon-hee immediately passed on the recipe, and occasionally the chef frys them as a special meal.
“Besides, seasoning is also being served today.”
Jin Cheon-hee said while moving her hands quickly.

The surgery is over.
The surgery was completed sooner than originally expected and was much safer.
However, the senators had to feel empty.
‘This… I can’t keep up.’
Lawmakers are not unmanned.
Since he is a member of the Kangho Council, he contains a certain amount of true energy in his Danjeon, but it is impossible to achieve the state of nothingness by dividing life and death, and it is also impossible to generate sword energy and cut off only the desired part.
Busuldang’s medical book is quite easy to understand and written in detail, but studying it and putting it into practice are two different things.
Jin Cheon-hee said while tearing off a chicken leg.
“Well, usually you have to tow the cerebellum. I did it on a whim. Normally, you have to start by tractioning the cerebellum and securing the field of view.”
“Isn’t it difficult to avoid damage to blood vessels in the process?”
“You have to be careful not to damage it.”
‘No, so what do I do with that?’
One of the senators is pulling out his hair.
“Oh, in front of the sacred chicken.”
“To begin with, our level of energy can’t even reach the tips of the heads of Busuldang. You know….”
It is difficult even for Jegalin to detect not only the size of the tumor but also the blood vessels and nerves in between.
In order for that to be possible, deep anatomical knowledge is required.
All three of these things had to be in place, and at the moment, only Jin Cheon-hee was able to do so.
With those words, Jin Cheon-hee dismissed the cries of the council members.
“If it doesn’t work, you have to do it until it works. Otherwise, the patient will die?”
“Ugh…. We’ve already gone as far as we can. “I can’t change it anymore.”
Hearing those words, Yuho looks at the council member with cold eyes.
It was a look of disdain from someone who was already grinding his teeth to a young chick.
Jin Cheonhee chuckled.
“That’s why there’s a lot to study and a long training period to become a doctor.”
“I’m… scared.”
“You should be scared. “You should be scared when dealing with people’s lives.”
Have I ever had a time like that?
Jin Cheon-hee thought back to the time she was on Earth.
Is it because so much has happened since I came to Moorim? It is a memory that feels so distant.
A memory no one can believe.
‘Hmm… there were times when I thought about that too.’
A senior came to mind.
At that time, the senior… was a piece of shit who warmly comforted the fledgling Jin Cheon-hee.
I rolled without mercy.
The senior himself was rolling over and had no power to comfort others.
“I’m still embarrassed by Busul Party to call myself a member of Busul Party. What should I do? “Humans are learning beings…”
Jin Cheon-hee continued, waving freshly fried chicken.
“So, if you don’t know something, ask questions and practice hard. If you keep rolling like that for a few more years, things will go well.”
“Ah…ah….”
Jin Cheon-hee asked the frantic council members.
“If you’re not going to eat those wings, can I eat them?”
“…eat… please, head of the family.”
Jin Cheon-hee smiled brightly and ripped off the wings.
Wow!
‘okay. After all, the fries have to be crispy. The gravy must be moist.’
The teacher, who was looking at his student with satisfaction, gave the chicken leg in front of him to Jin Cheon-hee.
“Eat more. “I need to eat more and grow bigger.”
It is impossible to grow any further as the growth plates have already closed.
Still, even if it grows sideways, it still grows.
The teacher is very worried because his student is losing weight.
And Koreans felt love for chicken legs.
‘Master, you care so much about me. ‘You’re giving up a chicken leg.’
Jin Cheon-hee ate with a happy heart.
Wow-
* * *
How great it would be when the surgery is over, everything gets better, and everyone is happy.
After surgery, the patient must lie down in the intensive care unit for about two days.
Is consciousness returning properly?
It is a good idea to continue to monitor for signs of cerebrospinal fluid leakage or meningitis.
Jin Cheon-hee and the other doctors replenished their stamina with chicken and continued to examine the patient.
During this period, the patient went to sleep and woke up in a dazed state, and received a pulse repeatedly.
So, it was natural that every time the patient opened his eyes, he saw Jin Cheon-hee’s blank face.
“I’m sorry I woke you up, but you need to get some blood and go back to sleep.”
“Ugh…”
“It hurts, right? i know. I know, but I need to keep checking the condition. If it’s very difficult, give more painkillers… No. I can’t post any more. “I’ll just stick the needle in you until you fall asleep.”
Is it a talent to have such a handsome face look so disgusting?
Water droplets flowed from the corners of Han Yi-jeong’s eyes.
Jin Cheon-hee treated Han Yi-jeong again like that.
“Well, the surgery went really well. After all, it’s me, it’s me.”
Praising oneself like this can’t be that obnoxious. Is it because it is right after surgery? Or is it because the situation is the situation?
“I guess I can finally talk. “Would you like to say something?”
Han Yi-jeong moaned softly.
This time, the acupuncture technique used by the master of acupuncture was of great help in the treatment of bujutsu.
Since the long needle is inserted deep under the vocal cords, some recovery time is required to be able to speak.
Jin Cheon-hee breathes inner energy into the body to improve the voice and encourage recovery.
yet.
Han Yi-jeong ended up saying what was inside her.
“Do you know this? Representative, out of all the people I’ve ever seen, you’re the most handsome… but the most obnoxious.”
Jin Cheon-hee grinned at those words.
“Wow, am I the most handsome? “If you were the granddaughter of Admiral Tae-gam, handsome men would kick you in the face, right?”
“The only thing I do every day is wake up, read books, and study, so what’s stopping me?”
“The Admiral is quite strict.”
“…I can’t help it. I am the eldest daughter. And… everyone says that I resemble my grandfather the most. “There was no blood connection.”
“ha ha ha.”
Jin Cheonhee laughed bitterly.
In the past, I would have taken it as a heartwarming conversation between a grandfather and his granddaughter, but I had already seen the other side of it.
Han Yi-jeong chose.
The world will move in a different direction again.
Even the childish foolishness the patient is showing now may be one of the few opportunities left in her life.
‘From now on, you will hold more blood than ink.’
The politics of power are truly ruthless.
It feels so bad that even blaming it is clumsy.
“I don’t know much about that, but I know that you grew up with a lot of expectations from a young age.”
“I just wish my younger brother would take over…”
Han Yi-jeong took a deep breath.
“…Now that I think about it, I don’t think I should replace it. “He’s the kind of kid who cries out of pity even if he kills a rat.”
“….”
“What should I do? It’s my sister. “I have to do well.”
There was a time when I believed it would end when I died.
There was a time when I thought that it would be a bit busier when I became a Minister of Education, but it would still be great because it was a shining position.
So, he must have thought that if he disappeared, a bling bling necklace with the title of “Yukbu Sangseo” would be hung around his younger brother’s neck.
But the reality was very cruel.
“It would have been better if my grandfather had been an ordinary, low-ranking government official…”
“If that had been the case, you two would not be here now.”
“Well… I guess so. Ha ha ha ha ha.”
I smiled, but the tears did not stop.
“I was so naive.”
“That’s not a sin.”
Han Yi-jeong thought for a while and then opened her mouth.
“How do I resemble my grandfather? “It’s just clumsy.”
“….”
For some reason, I thought it was an important question.
It could be said that this is a sixth sense that only those who have lived their second lives have.
Han Yi-jeong was unstable, but she still made a choice.
At a crossroads, I have a feeling that Han Yi-jeong’s future answer will decide something.
My mouth didn’t fall off easily.
Eventually, Jin Cheonhee made a decision.
“Admiral Tae-gam sacrificed one arm for His Majesty. “His granddaughter gave her life for her brother.”
Han Yi-jeong’s eyes widened. Jin Cheon-hee continued speaking calmly.
“In some ways, you could call it a sacrifice, but I don’t think it is. “It is the determination to let go of the rest because you know what is truly precious.”
Loyalty in this era is a concept that is difficult for modern people to understand.
If you think of it as part of the family love that developed while taking care of two children who went through hardships together, it was understandable.
“Hahaha… Now that you say it like that… it seems somewhat similar…”
“I’m not saying they resemble each other in terms of their ruthless side as the Admiral. Of course, there are times when it has to be that way. “It’s also to protect something important.”
“….”
Han Yi-jeong looks at the ceiling for a long time.
Eventually she answered.
“Councilman. Do you know this?”
“yes?”
“Congressman, you really see the good side of people like a ghost. “If you listen to what the congressman says, my grandfather, who is like a monster, seems like a good person.”
An old monster who sacrifices hundreds and thousands of lives to serve His Majesty and protect the imperial throne.
“This is the first time you have described the old monster who is called His Majesty’s favorite and everyone is afraid of, in that way.”
“I don’t think that’s something you should say to your grandfather, but…”
“I’m telling you that you’re going to turn the granddaughter you care so much into like that, so please take some criticism.”
She laughed softly.
“I didn’t know. Why did my grandfather give me such a large piece of meat? In fact, I don’t know if he was planning to capture him and present it to His Majesty.”
“….”
Her eyes sank deeply.
“What happened today is a secret. “Senator.”
“yes.”
“Can I come visit you when you’re having a hard time?”
“If you have time for that.”
Han Yi-jeong closed her eyes without even wiping her tears.
The sound of his breathing was becoming more regular, making it seem like he was slowly falling asleep again.
‘I thought I wouldn’t be able to sleep again because of the pain.’
Has the tension in my heart been relieved?
A short conversation with Jin Cheon-hee. It seemed like it contained what she wanted to hear.
When Han Yi-jeong fell asleep completely, Jin Cheon-hee quietly said, ‘Good night.’ and turned off the lantern.
But in the dark.
Jin Cheon-hee read the book next to her without moving.
I planned to continue to watch over him until his next turn came.
