Episode 251. Should I treat this? (2)
“Eat this every day before practicing qigong.”
When the painter handed out a small wooden case, Yeo-po opened the lid and made a puzzled expression.
“Hasn’t my wound healed?”
“The wound has already healed.”
“Then what drug is this?”
“Yeo, this is a medicine that changes your body so that your energy can flow better.”
“You change your body? I’ve heard that sometimes there are great elixirs… is that by any chance?”
“It’s not that great.”
“All right. By the way, did Zhang and Jade also take this medicine?”
“yes.”
“her! Somehow…. I wondered because his skills were so surprising, but there must be a reason.”
“The effect that can be seen with the drug is not that great. Everyone is basically good at it.”
“A tiny difference can mean the difference between life and death on the battlefield. I owe so much grace to the Congressman every time.”
As Lu Bu lowered his head with a moved expression, the painter shrugged.
“If the escort leader gets stronger, wouldn’t I be that much safer? It’s all for me.”
Even the painter’s words did not erase the light of young emotion on Yeo-po’s face.
When Yeo-po returned to the manor and opened the wooden bowl, the scent of the pills mixed with the pure scent spread out in all directions.
Perhaps because of what Yeo Bu said, even in Chosun’s eyes, it didn’t seem like a normal thing.
“Even just smelling the scent seems to calm my mind.”
As Chosun unknowingly swallowed his saliva, Yeopo closed the lid enough to make a clicking sound.
As Cho-seon looked at him with a slightly sad look, Yeo-po put a wooden bowl in her arms and started walking ahead.
“It’s tailored to my constitution, so it doesn’t work for other people even if they take it. He said I had to eat it all by myself.”
“Where is that? Any medicine that is good for you will be good for me. There are as many as ten.”
“I’ll tell the congressman later and I’ll build your own, so don’t be greedy for this.”
“I will go with you, Mr.
“Today I have to take the medicine the doctor gave me and practice qigong, so don’t wait and go to bed first.”
Cho Seon waved his hand at Yeo Po, who was heading towards the training ground with a sad face.
When Lu Bu disappeared, Cho Seon took out a small jade bottle from his bosom and put it back.
‘Tonight I was going to try on a special perfume for my husband, but I’ll have to put it off after ten days.’
The perfume was given to her by Pyeon-seon, the small hostess of the painter’s shop, at a housewarming party not too long ago.
When Choseon was in the imperial palace, he had already heard of the great effects of perfume made by a painter.
At the time, I wanted to get it, but it was too rare and expensive, so I couldn’t get it.
‘By the way, I owe a life that I can’t repay, and even precious medicine and precious perfume. Thank you so much. I don’t know what to do.’

“What! Do-gyeom boasted that the baby bat would raise a letter of auspiciousness to the imperial palace and give my place to a bastard named Liu Bi?”
The face of the princess of Yeju Jasa turned red like a ripe date in the fall.
“Your master. It is not yet possible to confirm whether Dokyeom posted an auspicious letter to the imperial palace, but when he invited the Liu Bei brothers to a party that day, all the attendees said the same thing.”
“Ha~. That bastard killed Cao Cao and Gan came out of the boat. How dare you try to sway my position with a trivial friendship created by bribing Yi Gak and Gwak Sa.”
The princess gritted her teeth, thinking what to do.
The princess herself has a strong link in the imperial palace, but she is not up to Do-gyeom, who bribed Yi Gak and Gwak Sa with huge bribes.
If the imperial palace issues an official letter and dismisses himself, even if he fights with Liu Bei, who has brought the letter of appointment, his justification will be weakened.
If you want to pay, you have to pay beforehand.
“It is said that DK defeated Jojo, but the damage will be enormous. Also, Gong Rong of Beihai, who was a great helper, has now withdrawn, and Gongsun Zan is also blocked by Cao Cao, so he can no longer send reinforcements.
As long as he occupies Xuzhou, he can be recognized as a great empress. Then, even if the imperial palace sent a letter of appointment, he would have the strength to ignore it.
“hmm! It’s a good idea… but the brothers of Liu Bei, who are stationed in Sopae Castle, are bothered by it. I heard that there were outstanding generals named Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who stopped half of Cao Cao’s large army. Can we beat them?”
“There is no longevity, but one hand cannot stop ten hands. If you send Pabalma to all the counties and counties of Yezhou to assemble soldiers, divide the army into three, and have one attack Shaopai and the other two attack the other cities, how can you stop them, no matter how excellent Liu Bei is?”
“Tie Liu Bei to Xiaopai Castle, and after taking Xuzhou, appease Liu Bei, you mean?”
“It is. Although the Liu Bei brothers are superior in military strength, they cannot expect reinforcements from Gongsun Zan anyway, so if they want to live, they will have no choice but to follow the Duke of Zhou, who became the owner of Ye and Xu.”
“Heh, that’s a very good idea. But then, who do you have to attack Sopaseong? I think any leader with a head would be reluctant to do so.”
“The places close to Sopaeseong are the 3rd defeated army and the two countries. Unite them into an alliance and have them fight Sopae Fortress, and the soldiers of Yeongcheon-gun here will be commanded by the Duke of Ju himself to capture Do-gyeom, while the soldiers of Yeonam-gun will attack the rest of the castles.”
“The 3 defeated armies and the two countries… Well, they have been stiff-headed for the reason that they are relatives of the emperor from before, so it won’t hurt to win or lose.”
When the princess thought that she would become the owner of not only Yeju but also Seoju, her greed raised her head.
When the feudal lords of other lands raised their armies to wage war, he crouched down and grew stronger, but now is the time to unleash that power.
After the plan was devised, the princess began to gather soldiers by sending pabalma to the governors and ministers of each county and bureau the next day.
* * *
When Jin-gyu, the statue of defeat, began to gather soldiers under the command of the princess, the flower pot, the prefect of Cho-hyeon, had to send soldiers.
After making the decision to send 3,000 guardsmen to Jin-gyu, the Sang Gyu of the defeated country, the flower pot collected the goods, prepared food, called the soldiers’ families into the barracks, and took care to say goodbye for a day.
“Honey, you must come back alive.”
“Daddy must never die.”
“When a fight breaks out, never step forward and go to the back. Winning is not important to you. Living unconditionally is the best. Understand?”
“…”
The family members of the soldiers were seeing off with tears without even having enough food.
The flower pot and the painter looked at them from a distance and let out a long sigh.
“Ha~. After all, the winds of war are blowing all the way here!”
I knew that someday a war would break out in Yeju, but when it did happen, I couldn’t treat it as if it were someone else’s business.
“How many of them will come back alive?”
“If you win the war, half of them will come back alive, but if you lose, you won’t be able to come back.”
“I guess so. And if we lose the war, this place won’t be as peaceful as it is now.”
“Perhaps, if the enemy forces attack, the fields and mountains will be burned, and there will be corpses, orphans, and widows everywhere.”
The fireman let out a big sigh, recalling what he had seen while walking around the battlefield.
Come to think of it, this wasn’t someone else’s war, it was a war involving myself and my family.
Although many masters were placed around the painter’s shop, it would be useless if a large army of tens of thousands attacked. Perhaps now is the time to prepare for evacuation.
“Booya, are you going to follow the battlefield and treat the wounded again this time?”
“I intend to do so.”
“Then, what about following after them? I think if you’re close, even if you get hurt, you’ll die less.”
“I still think so. If possible, we should save many soldiers from our hometown of Chohyeon.”
“thanks. Please do me a favor. In my heart, I want to go to the battlefield and stand in the vanguard, but I can’t because I’m a county commander.”
“I know your brother’s martial arts are excellent, but it’s more important to protect your position as the presidency. By the way, I heard that if the city is captured, the governor or minister who occupied the city will rule it. Is that true?”
“It must be because it is written that way in the official document. The princess Jasa tried to bring out the hidden powers of the governors.”
“Then, if the defeated 3 armies and soldiers from both countries occupy the capital, Sang Jin-gyu will serve as governor.”
“I guess so.”
The fireman talked to his brother as if he would only participate in treatment as a doctor, but since the safety of his family was at stake, this time he intended to win the war by revealing his hidden power. And if he wins the war, he intends not to hand over the ball to Sang, but to put his brother in charge of Chohyeon and the occupied castle.
‘I must hurry up and meet Jin-gyu.’
It was only before that Jin-gyu was superior to him, but now, the imperial power has long since collapsed, and the eldest brother has become the official ruler of Yeonju, so it can be said that they are in an almost equal position.
‘In order to lead the flow of war, I have to be a leader, so what words should I say to get on that side?’
In the fireman’s opinion, the most dangerous enemy in this war was Liu Bei’s brother-in-law, who was stationed in Sopai Castle.
I thought that if I could become a leader and lead the direction of not fighting them, I would be able to occupy several castles in relatively weak Xuzhou.
“Master, a man named Zhuge Liang came to the medical room and urgently sought Master.”
At that time, Lee Dang-ji came to the painter and informed him that a guest had arrived.
Unlike other disciples, Dangji Lee was initiated late, so he did not know the relationship between Hwabu and Zhuge Liang.
“what! Liang is here?”
In an instant, the fireman’s eyes widened. And after a while, he tilted his head.
‘Liang will soon be under Liu Bei’s command…’
Judging from the history described in the future, after Liu Bei became the company of Xuzhou, he widely spread rooms and recruited talented people, and at that time he even made a famous saying, “Three highs and lows.” The person who was recruited on the way was Zhuge Liang.
‘…But I don’t have to yield to Liu Bei.’
I don’t know why he came here, but he is a necessary talent in the current situation.
“I brought my two younger siblings… Judging by their appearance, I suspect they may have been evacuated during the war.”
“ah! Come to think of it, Liang must have been caught up in the war as well. Brother, I have an important guest, so I have to leave.”
“An important guest? Is Zhuge Liang such an important guest? I think you said that this congressman was a war refugee a while ago?”
“There is bound to be jade among them.”
“Yeah, I got it. Go and see.”
After the painter broke up with his brother, he and Lee Dang-ji hurried toward the medical room.
“Master, who is he so welcome to you?”
“Oh, you don’t know. If Obona Bun-ah had seen it, he would have been quite welcome. But what are you two doing that you came?”
“The two brothers went into the operating room and didn’t come out, so I was receiving patients.”
“Oh yeah. So, let’s go.”
“yes.”
The fireman decided to ignore the history he already knew.
I don’t know what and how future history will be recorded, but the important thing is the present.
