Episode 627
“If you have any information about bandits nearby, please bring it with you. And since there are other places that have been attacked besides here, please provide relief to all of them. Please exempt the raided areas from taxes and post a report. “Okay?”
The first story is a request for relief, but the ‘report’ in the second is different.
No matter how much you manipulate the ledgers, if the content is different from the additional report submitted by Jin Cheon-hee, your head will be blown.
This is administration.
“I will follow your orders!”
thud!
He bows with his head broken and quickly runs away.
Seeing that, Manseon asked in a loud voice.
[What if he acts like this from now on and takes out his anger on the civilians later?]
[If he has such a clumsy temperament, he won’t last long. I will probably conduct a thorough investigation, keeping in mind that I may conduct an unexpected inspection and file an appeal to the Emperor.] [
The Lord of Sogak’s position has risen that much, so they are also nervous.]
[Yes. Because we are no longer at the level of a single congressman.]
Jin Cheon-hee nodded.
That’s the good thing about power.
‘The fate of the common people is determined by who holds such great power.’
I didn’t like it so I clicked my tongue.
* * *
A day later.
“Oh hyung~ I guess you didn’t sleep?”
Sima Xuan and the black robes returned after capturing the bandits.
But that number was less than twenty. Rather, dozens of civilians were taken away by bandits.
There were more civilians than bandits.
“Were these all the bandits?”
“Of course it was three times as much. “We almost live in a small village.”
Sima Xuan looked at his brother and smiled.
“There was nothing we could do because they resisted so fiercely~ So these guys are the only ones who survived~ Right? “Please tell me I’m right.”
As Sima Xuan pulled the rope and pulled the bandit, the bandit screamed.
“Hey!”
The bandit’s groin becomes wet with fear.
Sima Hyeon asks again in a charming way.
“right? Everyone resisted fiercely, right? You guys were the only ones who had no choice but to survive. right?”
“Yes yes yes! fit!! you’re right! I, too, am stillborn, but they are truly idiots. So hey! Hehe!”
I even urinated and my whole body trembled with fear as if I was going crazy.
Either way, Sima Xuan said.
“Look. I’m right. I couldn’t help it. This is self-defense, bro. “Self-defense.”
“…okay. “If you say so… it will be like that.”
I remembered a few passages from The Supreme Heavenly Demon that described how Sima Xuan played with people.
Things that stimulated the deepest fear of humans and drove people crazy in a short period of time.
In the Supreme Heavenly Demon, they were simply called ‘play’.
They also called it ‘clown play’.
There is no great meaning to that action.
How big of a philosophy does it take for a child to catch a dragonfly, play with it, and pour water on an anthill?
I just do it because it’s fun.
Jin Cheon-hee tried to erase the thoughts that came to mind.
‘Hyeon-i was also angry when he saw the civilians being slaughtered.’
How angry was Jin Cheon-hee himself?
An experienced lawmaker Kang Ho would know just by looking at the sword marks.
The swords these guys used were not only used to kill others, but also just to show off and play with.
Or, wasn’t it because his pride was hurt because he couldn’t cut it off in one go, so he hit the civilians over and over again?
The corpses of the civilians that were recovered and the wounds of the civilians that had been treated all night were too deep to sympathize with these guys.
“You’re surprisingly calm, huh? “Do you really believe me~?”
Jin Cheon-hee answered.
“Just as I have my own way, you also have your way. I have no intention of interfering there. “I won’t do it again.”
“Oh, I see.”
Why?
Sima Hyeon must have liked Jin Tianxi’s answer and suddenly speaks once more.
“Oh, I see. “That’s what your brother is like.”
He looks happy.
I’m not sure why.
Jin Cheon-hee said.
“First, we must hand over the interest to the podu and police officers left behind by the county government, treat the released civilians, and return them to their families.”
After saying that, Jin Cheon-hee stumbled for a moment, but then straightened up again.
“Hyuna.”
“Yes, brother.”
“I… I’m going to sleep a little bit.”
Words I never expected to come out of Jin Cheonhee’s mouth.
“Then Manseon Daeju and Hyuna. “I leave it to you.”
With those words, I crawled into the tent.
It was my first sleep in several days.
* * *
Jin Cheon-hee fell asleep as if she were dead.
Sima Hyeon and Manseon Daju guarded the barracks where Jin Tianxi was sleeping.
Even if Noejin and Cheonjin Nanman are not around to carry the letter, there is nothing to worry about because Hwanggu is there.
Nevertheless, the two protected Jin Cheon-hee while she was sleeping.
“Are you also touched by Sima Somoonju’s cooperation?”
Sima Xuan laughed at the words of the Great Lord Manshen.
“I guess there’s something like that~ Yes, yes. “If it weren’t for my brother’s cooperation, Hye-ah wouldn’t have survived, and I wouldn’t have been able to guarantee how I would survive.”
In response, Daeju Manseon tilted his head slightly.
Sima Hyun said.
“Hmm~ What should I say~ Good people always go first. And no matter how much I think about it, this guy is smart, but he has a stupid side, so it’s hard to ignore him~” “
Ah, he’s smart, but he’s stupid… I think you know what I mean.”
Daeju Manseon burst into laughter.
She nodded as she cleaned her fishing rod.
“It was like that in Baeklin County. Why is someone smart enough to change the world so foolishly obsessed with the lives of others? Aren’t you the kind of person who can abandon the people around you and live for yourself, but no one can say anything?”
Sima Xuan hunched over his upper body.
“He’s that kind of person~ It’s not like he doesn’t know that he can live like that. In the end, he rushes to rescue the injured people…”
Sima Xuan glanced at the tent.
My brother has a habit of curling up and sleeping when he’s tired.
Just sleep like you’re dead.
It’s not like I lost consciousness like last time, I’m just sleeping through exhaustion, so I guess that’s a good thing.
Daeju Manseon said.
“Still, I’m glad someone like Sohyeop is my younger brother. Our Sogakju is a person who is a doctor by nature. “He is even concerned about the life of a wicked person.”
“Instead, you are talking about someone who will have blood on their hands~”
The Great Lord of Manseon laughed awkwardly at Sima Xuan’s words.
“Hmm… you’re not wrong. However, as strong, good, and smart as he is… he is not a person with an insecure side.”
“Many people follow that charm.”
“exactly. I feel the same way too. “Because you are a unique person in the midfield.”
While saying this, Daeju Manseon glanced at the tent where Jin Cheonhee was.
Most of the warriors gathered at Baeklindae felt the same way.
To get better conditions at first. Or, they were people who had lived as ronin and now came here to settle down.
There is no one who does not know the nickname Ilgwang.
Everyone knew Kang Ho’s rumor about how crazy Jin Cheon-hee was.
But wouldn’t everyone feel the same way when they come to Baeklindae and see and watch him from up close?
That is why he risked his life to protect the incinerator.
Of course, it may be absurd to say that he has become so strong that he protects him, but hasn’t he trained to earn at least a second of a single sword?
At least Man-seon felt that way.
“I don’t know if it would be better for my brother to conquer Gangho~”
Manseon Daju sighed towards Sima Hyeon, who was smirking.
“Baekrin Uiseon also said that. But…”
I know.
Because Sima Hyeon also had a sneak peek of luck before.
All in all.
‘It’s a pre-modern conventional governance method that causes a lot of injuries and deaths.’
Even thinking about it again, it’s amazing.
All powerful people, even powerful political faction members who say they will not walk away from the path of defeat, express their heart-pounding unity in the world like that.
In a way, it was even an insult to Kangho.
Daylight (一狂).
That’s why instead of taking his brother seriously, the Kangho people laugh at him and call him crazy.
My brother must be affirming that kind of himself.
How long has it been?
Rustle-
“Yes, Hwang-gu. Stop licking. Bob Hyun would have taken care of it…. Uhm….”
Jin Cheon-hee stood up with a sigh.
Sima Xuan entered the tent.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yes… As expected, the barracks are the best for the ethnic gers. “The barracks are very hot.”
“I was surprised to see the barracks too. “Are you doing well in trade with the nomads?”
“right. Blood missions are the problem. And if I say this, I will be arrested for disloyalty, but traditionally, the Hua Empire is too arrogant. So, treat the other person as a barbarian. So diplomacy is like that, and nomads also have emotions.”
“That’s a strange perspective.”
“Listen, Hyuna. Even though they clashed swords, the Sukshin tribe did not attack because they were particularly more evil. Everything is causal. “That was the weak link in the empire, so that’s what the Blood Mission targeted.”
Jin Cheon-hee said and stretched lightly.
The blanket that Jin Cheon-hee was covered with was fabric woven by nomadic people.
Even at this moment, Baeklin Uigak is conducting trade.
“Ugh, I think I’ll survive because I slept well.”
“What do you want to eat. brother?”
“Give me any leftover food.”
For some reason, I laughed.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I’m in a good mood because my brother slept well.”
“I thought there would be sleeping pills in the rice, but I’m glad.”
“If I’m going to die from overwork like last time, then I have to do that. I’m prepared to do anything for my younger brother.”
“Ugh.”
Sima Hyun was hit once by Jin Tianxi with a pillow.
However, he still seemed to be in a good mood and came out, grinning.
‘Ah, my brother has become healthy.’
Sima Hyeon didn’t know that he would feel so relieved just by sleeping well and resting well.
“brother! “How about venison curry?”
“…You make curry? Blow honestly. “Are you a midfielder?”
At Jin Tianxi’s words, Sima Xuan burst out laughing again.
* * *
So Jin Tianxi and his party set off again and crossed the border of Fujian Province.
“While we were on the way from Hangzhou to here, the bandits and safaris all ran away without a trace. “These guys.”
The news that Baekrin Uigak and Haomun are pushing down must have spread among the bandits and samurai, and they all say, ‘Oh my!’ ‘It’s hot!’ and ran away.
On the way, I found some guys who wanted to take a hit while I was already in the mood, but unfortunately or fortunately, it wasn’t to the scale I had seen before, so I was able to handle it.
“Why does Baeklindae seem to gain more relief experience than actual combat experience, bro?”
“Saving is also practical. “Hyuna.”
“Well, that might be the direction you want more.”
Originally, they were included under the Green Forest Eighteen Houses, but they were not ranked among the Green Forest Eighteen Houses.
Green Forest Eighteen Houses.
I wonder if there are only 18 wild vegetables in this wide river lake.
The 18 strongest Sanchae are listed as Nokrimdo, and the lesser forces are also included in Nokrimdo, but they are small and medium-sized bandits.
In other words, there are countless small and medium-sized mountain vegetables under the Nokrim 18 houses.
As a result, Noklim 18chae is actually closer to an association in nature.
If the King of the Green Forest and the head of the Green Forest have both strong charisma and martial arts, the unity will be strong, and if the head of the Green Forest is weak, the unity will become loose.
Sima Hyun said.
“But the current bondholder is not one of the world’s top ten leaders, so the bond is not particularly strong.”
“okay?”
“Yes~ According to the information received from Haomun, the current head of the house is nicknamed Jecheon Small Saint, and because he looks like a monkey, he is called Jecheon Small Saint, which is smaller than Jecheon Daeseong.”
