Episode 926
That’s how Jin Cheon-hee met Ga-wan.
Gawan greeted Jin Cheon-hee in official uniform rather than civilian clothes, which drew a clear line between meeting Jin Cheon-hee on official matters.
“I didn’t know that the head of the Gawan family became Ibu Sang-seo.”
Originally, Gawan was working as a Sangseo in another department, but this time he became a second Sangseo.
in other words. I am in charge of human resources.
It is the backbone of power that holds the government posts, and it is a sweet spot that can make birds flying in the sky drop with a finger.
From the outside, the official uniform worn by Gawan in front of me seemed to have been made with only the bare minimum of silk, without any decoration.
However, no one believes that Gawan is truly innocent.
The fact that she is wearing such official uniform means that there is a need for it.
‘I guess I wear it because it’s necessary for a cause.’
There aren’t even personal likes or dislikes.
Gawan is a monster that protects the Ga family.
Because he is a cold-blooded oarsman who protects the Gasis family amidst a turbulent power struggle.
She smiled softly.
“The previous Vice President Lee retired. “A lot of things happened the other day.”
‘Among the eight families of the empire, the Mi family became extinct.’
The emperor brought Jin Cheon-hee to the table, and the teacher played a game of baduk, anticipating the student’s future moves.
And the Imperial Palga was shot down.
It is truly a milestone in history.
At a distant crossroads, the scales tip towards the emperor.
‘I heard that the previous Vice Minister Lee was close to Hwaju-gak and that he also had a close relationship with Mikawa.’
However, they cut off the head like a ghost and made Gawan sit there.
Actually, it is the moment when the pendulum tilts.
Because it was Gawan, the head of the family, who killed all emotions and took the Emperor’s side.
“Is that so… So the Emperor told me that I could meet Vice Minister Lee and talk about it.”
Whoop –
Gawan drinks tea softly.
The smile she makes is like that of a reptile.
Why are animals with cold blood?
He looks very similar to Gawan.
Gawan said.
“Do you know what Vice Minister Lee does?”
“This department is the organization that monitors the appointment and performance of officials and supervises promotions and demotions. “Isn’t the person in charge of everything?”
When Gawan finished the tea, Jin Cheonhee poured tea into her cup.
“I actually do two more things. “It’s informal, but it has to be done.”
“What is that?”
As Jin Cheon-hee lifts the kettle, Ga-wan takes another sip.
“It is inspection investigation and education. Do you know why?”
“The inspection investigation… must be to investigate the person before appointing him/her. But education? “Don’t you already have to pass the civil service exam to get to the central administration of the empire?”
Gawan shook his head in response to Jin Cheonhee’s question.
“Of course it is, but practical work is another story.”
“ah. “This is because exams and practical work are different.”
“As expected of someone who leads the Baekrin Army, you realized it right away. “You are smart.”
“no.”
Jin Cheon-hee waves his hand. Gawan continued.
“Yes, the past exams and practical exams are different again. That’s just the basics. “It would be great to be able to do administrative work well just by knowing the teachings of the ancient saints.”
Gawan lowered his eyelids, sighed as if he was in some trouble, and continued speaking.
“That’s why my father teaches us what to do in each department before assigning personnel to each department.”
“aha. So…”
“Yes. That’s why we need Taesu Jin’s teachings. “I want to learn about the administrative power that made Baeklin County the best region in the empire.”
But that may be a superficial reason.
There may be a political reason, but Gawan did not mention it.
That’s why Jin Cheon-hee herself keeps quiet.
If you can’t handle fire, it’s better to take a step back.
Jin Cheon-hee answered brightly, as if deliberately not guessing anything.
“That is certainly possible. Would you mind? Me interfering in my father’s affairs
is…” “…yonginjutsu.”
Gawan smiles softly.
The opponent is a god, a devil, a parent, a child, and someone who can cut them all down for the sake of the family.
It looks so gentle that it’s hard to believe it’s a smile from someone like that.
‘Isn’t it a lie to say that you can tell a person’s personality by looking at their face?’
For a moment, it seemed like a cold-blooded animal.
A person looks so good just by smiling.
‘As expected, my constitution doesn’t match that of the imperial family.’
Jin Cheonhee sighed softly inwardly.
Then he deliberately raised his tone of voice.
“If that’s the case, then. “Can I check first?”
“check?”
“ah. “It means inspection.”
“As expected, you still use strange language like Zhuge Emperor.”
Jin Cheon-hee just laughed at those words.
‘Do you think you can teach this properly?’
* * *
Outside the imperial palace.
A place where people who study to become officials in the imperial capital gather.
There is a seowon (書院).
The director of a seowon is usually a high-ranking scholar who belonged to the Hallymwon (翰林院) of the time, who takes over after retiring from the official position of Hallymhaksa.
Since the Academy of Sciences is an institution directly under the imperial family, it actually has the characteristics of a research institute rather than an academy.
There are many such academies in the imperial capital.
And one of them is not an ordinary seowon, but a place that functions as a training center to educate officials managed by different departments of the imperial family.
The name is very simple.
Education Center.
‘This training center is built on the outskirts of the imperial capital.’
It is said that it was located here on purpose, and it is said to have a connection with feng shui.
As a result, some people receive education while commuting to work, while others live in dormitories.
People from poor families usually live in dormitories, and even here, there is a difference between geniuses with families and geniuses with families without.
In the first place, if you passed the civil service exam and received practical training, you would be one of the best child prodigies in the neighborhood, where you start taking the Four and Three Classics, Arts and Sciences at the age of five.
Whether you are a genius at home or a genius at home without one, there is one thing in common.
They all have incredibly high self-esteem!
It has to be that way.
It’s only natural that everyone in the house will fall at their feet from the moment they hatch.
How easy is it to get angry in a stream with a house that doesn’t exist?
From the time he was a child prodigy, he was the pillar of the family and the savior who built our family up.
When those people are cut down and whittled down under the officials, they become round like a pebble.
Now that I have just passed the civil service examination, I am at the height of my pride.
A spacious classroom that can accommodate more than 100 people at such an educational center.
Dozens of people who had already been appointed as officials and were receiving training before going to their respective departments were gathered.
They are each talking loudly.
“Are you excited to hear that Governor Jin Cheon-hee will come and teach in person?”
“Prime Minister Jin? “He’s Zhuge’s disciple?”
“that’s right. “That person.”
However, it seems that not everyone respects Jin Cheon-hee or treats her like a superior.
In fact, the position of governor is much higher than those gathered here.
Nevertheless, the reason they are making such a fuss is probably because they have envy and jealousy toward the other person.
“They are not from the eight imperial families, and under the reign of Zhuge, they were a declining family that was once on the verge of extinction.”
“That’s right! They hit a lot in the strong leagues. “They haven’t been in government positions for generations like we have.”
Everyone applauded those words.
They are the prodigies of the house.
However, the same goes for prodigies from families without a home.
“joy! Kang-ho’s military father became the governor. This is ridiculous! Besides, didn’t he say that he was a member of the National Assembly? “How can a congressman teach us something like that?”
“I heard that your face is so captivating that it mesmerizes men who look at it! Probably the Emperor too…”
And some people were openly talking about the ‘Emperor’s love affair theory’.
The act of putting the liver overboard!
When I got there, someone startled me and hit me on the shoulder.
“Shh! noiselessly. What would you do if such a sound reached your classmate’s ears? Let’s talk about this later, quietly, in our own room…”
Sure enough. A friendly official gives caution.
The attention of others was also directed towards the person who was talking about the ‘Emperor’s love story’.
“joy! I have no shame in looking up to my sky! You can even file an appeal to the Emperor! “What will happen to the government if you are possessed by such a wicked and despicable thing?”
Even if an ax blade comes down on your neck, you have to say what you have to say!
The young official had nothing to fear.
But it’s the same for everyone else.
As if their blood was boiling, the young chick officials spoke one word at a time.
“That’s right! That’s right! “If someone is distracting the Emperor, it is right to make a decision with a heart of patriotism and loyalty to the country!”
Wow!
Other young people also responded positively to the words, “patriotism and loyalty.”
At this moment, I felt like I could offer a remonstrance out of loyalty to the emperor.
Even if my head gets cut off by that axe.
If my name remains in history as a loyalist, isn’t that enough?
Indeed, you have the energy to do it because you are young!
Everyone thought it was definitely not jealousy.
This is just loyalty.
“But there is definitely something remarkable about his actions.”
At that time, another bachelor offered a counterargument.
“Isn’t it he who developed the cure for smallpox? Moreover, I heard that you have contributed greatly to the development of Baeklin County.”
When everyone speaks with one voice, there is someone who always pours cold water on them.
Although it is unpleasant, it is also the duty of a subject to refute incorrect claims.
That’s what they thought.
“joy! Isn’t that the virtue of his teacher, Baekrin Uiseon? “It’s only natural that he is known as the greatest genius of the Zhuge family!”
“So you’re saying you’re benefiting from the name of your teacher?”
“I see. Also, look at his nickname. Isn’t it the light of day in the world? “It means he’s the biggest crazy person under the sun, so there’s no way someone like him could have done anything right!”
“Tsk tsk, don’t you think you should go to the medical room? You seem mentally and physically weak. “I need to take some medicine…”
“How dare you call me a drug addict!” “Are you…”
These people were arguing like that.
however.
It rattled.
When the sound of the classroom door opening was heard, everyone closed their mouths and looked in that direction.
lightly.
There is no sound of footsteps at all.
A beauty that doesn’t look like a human being.
Viewers feel as if time has stopped for a moment.
“Jin… isn’t she really pretty?”
“So the Emperor….”
“If you just look at their faces, you’ll think they’re Songok and Banan from the folk tale.”
“Looking at the line, it looks quite manly. But the off-white color… is this the off-white color of a person?”
“I heard he goes around dressed as a woman….”
“What? Take a look… humhum. Nope. no. “I’m not that kind of person!”
Gossip and gossip.
The voices were smaller than before, but since so many people were talking, there was quite a bit of noise.
And Governor Jin Cheon-hee finally stood on the podium.
Even though he was obviously hearing all this, the man was smiling.
“Good morning everyone~ Oh, isn’t this it? Wow, I guess I’ll have to do it again. good morning. Our students. “The weather is nice today, isn’t it?”
While saying crazy things.
She smiles with beauty like a celestial being.
“Shall we open the window first? “The air here is a bit bad.”
