Episode 918. Prove that there is no disquieting intention.
A heartache came to Yeon Jeok-ha, who was sitting in the guest room after sending the warriors from the south.
“Confucius, are you worried about something?”
“I don’t know why the Nam-maeng and Ho-cheon-maeng scream more. It’s not because they have the confidence to deal with the famous religion. Aren’t my words the same?”
“It’s not that it doesn’t sound like words… it’s because it looks easygoing.”
“Do I look easy?”
“You used your hands ruthlessly in the green forest, but didn’t you look after the South and Hocheon Meng? A person naturally listens well when he or she understands that ‘if one messes around, one’s head can break’.”
“ah! Is that so?”
At the words of heartache, Yeonjeokha’s ears flashed open.
right.
Up until now, he had barely touched the Hocheon League and the Southern League. In the case of Green Forest, some died or had one of their limbs cut off, but Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng were only beaten a few times.
It all happened because he adored the Namgung family.
Even when they were in the green forest, they did not tolerate injustice like a swordsman of a political faction.
Then, the Namgung family changed when they broke away from the Hocheon League and established the Nam League.
He showed a hypocritical political figure with the excuse of ‘doing it to survive’.
“Old Sim.”
“yes?”
“You know what’s funny?”
“What is it?”
“These days, it seems that Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng are doing worse things than famous schools. Look at the famous bridge. The imperial family screams for help, but it’s as quiet as a rat. On the other hand, Hocheon-maeng and Nam-maeng are causing fights here and there.”
“It does. But the reason why famous schools are quiet is because they are afraid of Confucius.”
“It’s because of me that Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng do that shit.”
“Hehe. Because of Confucius, the social religion is quiet, but it has become a world where political factions cause trouble.”
Heartache laughed poodle poodle.
It seems that the world is going back in a very strange way because of one person.
“Isn’t life strange?”
Heartache offered words of consolation to the voice of an empty lover.
“But it’s not Gongja’s fault. They are just acting according to my desires.”
“Will the world return to normal if I disappear?”
“Oops! Confucius didn’t make it that way, so why do you think that way? Confucius disappeared? Where are you going, leaving your mother and the owner?”
“Who cares? That’s just what they say.”
“Even if you are Confucius, you don’t say such unlucky things. Since you train your speech skills, you know well what the power of words is.”
“Yes, I was wrong. I did it because I was frustrated with all the things I was doing.”
A sigh escaped from his mouth.
If even the Hocheon-maeng and the Nam-maeng treat green forest, the whole world will treat them like monsters.
If you do good things, you will be treated like famous religious leaders or demonic religious leaders.

Seokgyeongjang main house.
I went back to my room with a frustrated heart.
As he entered, Namgoong-yeon put her hand to her lips and said, ‘Shh!’ took the form of
It seems that the child has just fallen asleep.
The couple moved to the window and quietly waited for her to come.
She quietly approached me and said quietly.
“Did Namjin Samurai spend well?”
“Yeah, I said I wouldn’t step out because Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng fought.”
“I see.”
Namgoongyeon nodded.
It seems that Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng broke his warning and gave up, but the reality is a little different.
The reason he delayed visiting the imperial palace was because he didn’t know the reason for his embarrassment.
Maybe you will never know.
However, since famous schools are still quiet, it is okay to watch them, so they are watching.
“Old Sim said so. That’s because I didn’t treat the Hocheon-maeng and Nam-maeng as green forest. Do you think I should do that too?”
“Then you’ll be criticized evenly by the orthodox faction?”
“Yes?”
“But there is a point in what old man Sim said. If you show respect to the Hocheon League and the South League, they will continue to ignore your warnings. Humans are inherently that way.”
“ha! Old Shim also said something similar to my sister.”
A sigh escaped from his mouth.
At times like these, it may seem that heartache isn’t just about getting old.
“Don’t be too conscious of people’s eyes. No matter what choice you make, you will curse those who hate it and love those who like it.”
“sister. Do I have the right to point fingers at me as hypocrites?”
“Are they hypocrites?”
“no?”
“The Hocheon-maeng and the Nam-maeng sometimes act like hypocrites, but they basically aim for chivalry. Rather than being hypocritical in everything, should we say that they make selfish choices when it comes to their survival? On the other hand, Sapa like Nokrim does something that seems righteous once or twice depending on his mood.”
Namgungyeon looked at Yeonjeokha.
She hoped that even if Yeon Jeok-ha resented Ho-cheon and Nam-myeong, they would properly look at their true nature.
“Are you saying that the Hucheon Meng and the Southern Meng are not evil to the core?”
“that’s right. In their quest for righteousness, they sometimes make narrow choices. That’s what other people see as hypocrisy. Wouldn’t it be an overkill to say that ‘their lives themselves are hypocrisy’?”
“Listening to my sister, it seems like that.”
“It is true that Hocheon-maeng and Nam-maeng now act like hypocrites. And you have the right to point out their faults.”
“Even though I have made many narrow choices based on my mood?”
“You were treated unfairly, or you exploded after seeing something injustice. Even those who call you the archevil will not call you a hypocrite.”
“So you’re saying that I have the right to criticize the Hocheon-maeng and Nam-maeng’s wrongdoing?”
“You wouldn’t do it if you weren’t qualified?”
“no.”
I laughed at the love affair.
After all, talking with Namgung-yeon makes things that were blurry clear.
Like Shen Tong said, will the fight stop if we break the heads of Hocheonmaeng and Nammaeng?

midnight.
The emperor and the commander of the Golden Guard were sitting with their heads facing each other with serious faces.
“I’m sorry, but I have said that I have no intention of participating in the famous religion as long as the Hocheon-maeng and the Nam-maeng fight. We continue to send people from the top of the gold table, but there is no further progress. Punish your convictions.”
“How could that be the commander’s fault? It is the fault of Hocheon-maeng and Nam-maeng, who are not interested in ancestral rites and are blinded by ashes. Did I convey my will to the Hocheon and Nammaeng?”
“I told them, but disrespectfully, they showed no intention of backing down.”
“Like selfish people. It’s like I’m not interested in whether or not the famous religious leader takes control of the imperial palace!”
“It’s embarrassing.”
“Tell the Hocheon League and the South League like this. ‘Isn’t the reason why you held the Moorim Championship to fight the famous religion? Fight the famous religion quickly and prove that you have no evil intentions.’ Do you understand?”
He is saying that if he doesn’t fight famous religion right now, he will think of weightlifting.
“yes! I will convey Your Majesty’s will without missing a word.”
After leaving Bohwajeon, the commander of the Golden Guard ran to the Golden Guard within a month.
After a while, dozens of pigeons flew into the night sky.

April.
Ha Nam.
Zhengzhou Hocheonmaeng.
Yubeom, the southern Jin warrior of Jeongju, stormed the Hocheon alliance with 100 members of the Golden Guard.
He made a sound like thunder from the blue sky in a private meeting with the leader.
“The Emperor himself said, ‘Isn’t the reason why you held the Moorim Tournament to fight the famous religion? Fight the famous religion quickly and prove that you have no evil intentions.’”
The startled martial artist waved his hand and replied.
“A disturbing thought? Your words are unfair.”
“If that’s the case, why aren’t you fighting the famous cult?”
“As you know, there is no one who can stand up to the famous cult leader in the Hocheon League.”
However, Yoo-beom, like an official, did not consider the other person’s position.
“The imperial family suspects that ‘Hocheonmeng has unsettling thoughts’. Disband the warriors selected for the Moorim Contest if you do not want to fight the famous cult.”
“If we disband them now, the famed religion will be even more difficult to deal with.”
Then, Yoo-beom slammed the table ‘bang!’ I hit it until it made a sound.
“Anyway, you guys are not doing anything right now! Don’t you know it’s already too late when the imperial family pushes you to lift weights!”
“Grunt!”
A sound of pain escaped from the Merchant’s mouth.
I didn’t know that the imperial family would suddenly urge a fight with the famous religion.
It seems that the power of the famous religion in the imperial palace has declined to the extent that it can be said openly.
It’s not that you don’t know the position of the imperial family, but you’re still fighting or disbanding the famous religion?
Both were difficult to choose.
“I will fight against the Great Religion. However, it takes time to prepare.”
“Since it is April now, I will have to show the results in May at the latest. If there is no change in May, then it will not end with words like this.”
After speaking, Yubeom immediately left the seat.
When Namjin Musa left, Mugeuk Merchant hurriedly called together the representatives of the Chilpamun.

The Nammaengdo also received a surprise visit from Won Hwa-pyeong, a warrior of the southern Jin-do.
After conveying the Hwangmyeong, Won Hwa-pyeong said, ‘Either you fight Yumyeonggyo right away, or if you don’t like it, dismiss the new warriors. Otherwise, you will be driven into weightlifting.’ Threatened and left.
After consulting with the Musketeers, Sword King Namgung Byeok summoned the representatives of the five generations.
“…He told our southern alliance to either fight the famous religion immediately or to dismiss the new warriors selected for the Moorim Convention. If you don’t, you’ll be driven to weightlifting.”
At the words of the leader, the representatives of the four generations said, ‘I’m crying!’ and threw out one word at a time.
“Why are you telling us to fight when the imperial family can’t do anything about the famous religion?”
“What’s the point of telling us to fight when they aren’t fighting too?”
“It’s not the first time we’ve held the Moorim Competition, so why are we driving weightlifters?”
“no! Is it okay for the well water to do this and that to the river water? There is a saying, ‘well water does not invade river water [井水不犯河水]’!”
As the storm swept through, Musketeer Mo Yong-wen said.
“Lord Lord, the imperial family has no power right now, but once the famed religion is settled, we will be held accountable. I don’t think we should put off fighting the famous religion any longer.”
Then Paeng Muan asked.
“How do we fight the famous cult now, without Namcheon?”
“But if you don’t do anything, you can really get into weightlifting. Even the emperor must have known that the Southern League was no match for the famous religion. Even so, it is because of Namcheon that is putting pressure on us.”
“You mean Namcheon ordered the emperor?”
“Rather than that, I would like to move Namcheon by stopping the conflict between Hocheon and Nammaeng. I don’t have the energy to fight the famous cult and at the same time fight the Hocheonmaeng.”
“Are you saying you want to get out of the business? Then you’ll take it from Hocheonmaeng saying you’re an idiot?”
“I can’t do that. However, since there is a Hwangmyeong, I think I will have to pretend to fight the famous religion. Nine out of ten, Hocheonmaeng is probably of the same opinion as us.”
The people of the four generations nodded.
It’s because if you pretend to fight, you don’t have to take your hands off the work you’ve been doing.
On the spot, the Southern League decided to attack the famous religious shrine.
No one asked about preparations for the Twelve Horses, probably because it was ‘fighting’.
