Episode 122. Meeting young Zhuge Liang (1)
Cheongbi heard that the fireman cut Hyeonbi’s stomach open and took out Agissi and that both Agi and Hyeonbi were safe.
Cheongbi regarded the news as a welcome rain for a drought.
In fact, there was no woman of this era who did not have the fear of childbirth.
Many women died while giving birth, and many babies died while giving birth.
For this reason, midwives with excellent skills are precious and often receive a lot of money.
“The midwife said that if Hyeonbi-mama hadn’t been cut open by the Hwabu doctor at that time, Hyeonbi-mama would have been safe, but Agi-ssi would have died.”
After hearing the court lady’s report, Cheongbi licked her lips as if feeling a bit disappointed, then cleared her throat while stroking her stomach.
“I knew that Hwabu’s medical skills had already reached the sky… but I didn’t know that he could even do that. It’s really great. He is the person I need to be when I produce baby seeds.”
“….”
“Where is the Hwabu member now?”
“You are still in the current vision.”
“I heard that both of them are safe and even Hyeon-bi is walking around now. But why are you still there?”
“Hyeonbimama seems to have asked Hwabu to take care of herself and the baby for a few more days.”
Cheongbi listened to the courtier’s words and tilted her head.
“huh? ask? What kind of member did you ask for a favor?”
“That’s… Hwabu is a member of the council, but this time she became a shear. So it’s easy to talk… and I know it’s difficult to keep him in the palace.”
“Poetry sir! An inspector?”
In an instant, the blue eyes widened.
“yes. It is said that Crown Prince Hwang Wan put great effort into making His Majesty the Emperor bestow the Sieo Sapae to the Hwabu doctor.”
“Then, when I give birth, the fire doctor is not in the palace?”
“I don’t know that either. It may be possible if Your Highness asks for it, but…”
As the court lady slurred her words, the corners of her eyes went up.
“Go ahead and call the fireman.”
“yes?”
“Call the fireman!”
“I see.”
The court lady hurriedly got up as if she was startled, and soon returned with the painter.
“Did you call? Blue Mama.”
The painter lowered his head, and Cheongbi nodded while stroking her bulging belly.
“Yes, I heard that it helped Hyeon-bi a lot in her easy delivery.”
“It’s not an easy delivery… but fortunately, I was able to help in an emergency.”
“Will you help me when I give birth?”
Cheongbi smiled with half-moon eyes, but the painter shook his head.
“Didn’t you hear that I became a poet?”
It was supposed to be kept secret because it was an undercover job, but the prize knew it, and the ministers quickly became a secret that was not a secret and was spreading.
“I heard you. However, it is not necessarily true that the Shea Temple has to be busy inspecting and going around.”
“That’s true, but you can’t stay in the palace all the time.”
“Then where are you going to inspect?”
“I haven’t decided on that yet, and I’m sorry, but I can’t even tell Mama.”
The painter put on a determined expression, but Cheongbi smiled.
“If it’s not decided, how about supervising Yeo Nam-hyeon?”
Yeo Nam-hyeon is Cheongbi’s hometown, and her hometown, Sogajang, was the place where the head of the family lived.
The fireman didn’t answer right away, but looked at her eyes, which were still crooked like half moons.
“…..”
“…..”
The courtier in the back swallowed dry saliva as the two silently watched.
“Yeonam-hyeon is a fertile place.”
When Cheongbi added another word, the painter nodded with a low sigh.
‘To prepare for the turbulent times, you need to have a lot of things… so there’s no need to reject it.’
“I stopped by Yeo Nam-hyun and will come see Mama before she gives birth next month.”
“Hoho, among my relatives and younger siblings, there are many children who are quite off-white… Maybe I will be able to meet a good relationship.”
“I plan to focus only on my work as a member of the legislature and as a poet.”
“That’s something I can decide by looking at my younger siblings.”

‘The person I need is someone like Okju.’
Even though he treats the poor for free, the painter has accumulated considerable wealth.
At first, he thought about hiring a warrior escort through the accumulated wealth, but it might be okay in the short term, but thinking about the future, he decided that he needed someone like Ok-ju to stay with for the rest of his life rather than hiring an escort warrior.
“The most outstanding executioner in Yeonam-hyeon… there is a person called Janggoe.”
Ok-ju thought for a moment at the painter’s question before answering.
“Jang-goe-ra… It’s a familiar name for some reason…”
The painter searched for the name Jang-goe in his memory and realized that the name belonged to Han Jin-soo, not the painter’s memory.
‘ah! Zhang Wei’s younger brother, the janggoe!’
There is a theory that Zhang Wei later died fighting Cao Cao’s great general, He Ze, and after losing the Battle of Yangpyeonggwan, he went under Cao Cao’s command and was appointed as General Sui, and after retiring, there was a theory that he became a Taoist by wiping out the Tao.
Elder Jangwi Janggoe. The three brothers were recorded in various historical books besides the Three Kingdoms.
‘All three of them are outstanding military men, but I was puzzled because only the two older brothers appeared frequently in history books, and Janggoe rarely appeared… I guess they didn’t leave a trace in history because they were acting as executioners.’
The fireman made his own guesses and thought that he should make Janggoe his escort.
Before going to Yeo Nam-hyeon, the painter ordered Myeong-il to bring the Janggoe.
After leaving the palace, the painter went to Sogajang, Yeonam-hyeon, the home of Cheongbi.
Sohun, the head of the household, had already listened to his daughter through In-pyeon, so he treated the fireman with great hospitality, gave a lot of wealth, and showed off the fair-haired among his nieces every day.
The painter didn’t care about that and went to the slums every day to focus on treating patients.
Around seven days passed, Myeong-il showed up with Jang-goe.
‘uh? It’s very strange… is it really a monster?’
The fireman looked at the Janggoe and made a slightly puzzled expression.
It was a physique and size that was not much different from Myeong-il. Of course, his forearms looked solid.
‘But if it’s a monster… shouldn’t Boon be at least like hyung? Even the eyes are so-so… There’s no way Bishop Myeong-il will fool me, but isn’t that the obstruction?’
“Miss Hwa. Long time no see.”
“Ah yes. How have you been?”
“According to Congressman Hwa’s advice, we have newly established the organization and are in the process of strengthening its stability.”
“is it so. But the person who came with me…”
“Oh, look at my mind. Congressman Hwa said he was looking for a lion, so I brought him. Jang lion. He is the Congressman Hwa I mentioned. Say hello.”
“I heard a lot from the bishop. It’s an honor to meet you. I am the master of Punghyeon.”
‘Seeing that he is from Punghyeon, it seems right…’
“Aren’t there two hyungs above you?”
“You have two older brothers.”
“Aren’t your names elder and elder?”
“you’re right. By the way, do you know your brothers?”
“I heard that you are good at martial arts.”
“Ah, the older brothers went into military service early and served as military officers, so Congressman Hwa must have heard of it.”
“By the way, is there any special reason that Jang Goe-nim did not go to government service as a military officer?”
“I’ve seen the fruit… but I’ve fallen every time.”
For a moment, the fireman put on a slightly absurd expression.
I heard that he was definitely the most talented executioner in Yeo-Nam-Hyeon, but he failed.
“Isn’t your martial arts better than your brothers?”
“The older brothers are excellent, but I am not inferior to the two older brothers.”
“But why…..”
“That’s it… Haha Actually, I neglected to read the text….. It’s embarrassing.”
“ah! That’s right.”
The fireman felt absurd to know that even if he was a military officer, he was taking a basic theory test.
‘I heard from my older brother that the theory test is almost at the level of common sense…Are you a bit crazy?’
For some reason, he seemed to know why he joined the Taepyeonggyo and became an executive messenger.
“Anyway, why did you find me?”
“I heard that Janggoe-nim is doing a lot of hard work for Myeong-il-nim, so I called to see if there are any hidden diseases.”
“A hidden disease?”
“Isn’t there a lot of cases where a person who was fine suddenly died of an illness one day? It is all because the disease is hidden and growing, but I can find it in advance and treat it.”
“Ah, he said he was a very talented member of the legislature… I understand. Then please examine me.”
“Follow me.”
The fireman took the intestines into a small room in the slums and shut the door shut without letting anyone else in.
* * *
‘I never thought I’d have such a disease…’
Jang Goe, who was examined by the fireman, was greatly surprised. However, I was relieved to hear that it could be fixed with consistent treatment.
Janggoe visited the fireman every day, received treatment for about two feet, and went back. About 15 days later, when the fireman left Yeo Nam-hyeon, he withdrew from Taepyeonggyo and joined the fireman’s group.
If you become an executive emissary of the Taepyeonggyo, you cannot resign at will, but since the bishop is a master, there was no great difficulty.
The fireman sparred with Janggoe whenever he had time.
Heh heh…..
After sweating in sparring with the fireman, Janggoe looked at the fireman with a disbelieving expression.
“Are you really a congressman?”
“why? Is it worth it?”
The fireman’s legs were wobbly, and he was standing with a wooden sword as a walking stick.
“I did win, but can I say I won this…”
“I did my best, and Jang Goe-nim kept his circumstances in his hands, so that’s right.”
“no. Today, I also did my best. Congressman Hwa’s martial arts growth rate is phenomenal.”
“Oh, is that so? If I really beat Janggoe-nim later, then I believe that too.”
As the fireman moved with a limp, Janggoe followed him and shook his head.
‘I had a hard time walking yesterday… but I got better in one day. Are you a member of the legislature and have extraordinary resilience? Or is there another slander?’
* * *
When the fireman returned, not only Cheongbi, but even Sang Jin-gyu stopped the meeting with the ministers and came out to greet them.
“I heard through personal contact that Congressman Hwa had healed many people in his family. thanks.”
Cheongbi had a private meeting with the painter when Jin-gyu disappeared after saying this and that.
“I did what I was supposed to do as a member of Congress.”
“I did what I was supposed to do as a member of the council, but it seemed like I didn’t do what I was supposed to do as a poet.”
“Mama’s uncle, the Hyeongryeongnim, promised to actively accept my opinion and improve it, so there was no need to inspect it.”
“As expected, Congressman Hwa is a person who knows how to live wisely in the world.”
“It’s thanks to Da Mama sending someone in advance to take care of it.”
“Anyway, there must have been quite a few kids with a fair complexion among my relatives and younger siblings… They all kicked them out.”
Cheongbi put on a slightly sad expression.
“You’re throwing me off. This is an outrageous word. I just politely declined because I had no heart.”
“That’s what I did. I heard that Seong Su-sinui’s daughter is ecstatic, but do you have feelings for her?”
“It is not like that. I am just a disciple who is on the right side.”
“Huh, if Congressman Hwa is like that, it must be like that. If you knew how beautiful the skin color of a child named Pyeonseon was, you shouldn’t ask your father in vain.”
“Haha, you misunderstood. By the way, it seems that the delivery date is just around the corner, so I’ll try the pulse first.”
“Do it.”
The fireman examined the condition of the fetus by diagnosing the blue rain.
‘Fortunately, it’s not an inversion this time.’
