Episode 292. A ghost calls a ghost (1)
The painter thought for a while.
It’s something I’ve felt lately, but when I worry like this, the person who gave me the homework on the contrary was bound to be nervous. Also, Hau-dong couldn’t keep his composure and was swallowing dry saliva.
the desired sea.
The fireman shook his head and opened his mouth.
“Then the problem becomes even more serious. From now on, I have to stay on the battlefield, but this seal is like hitting my own neck. How to hasten an order if you have an object that is not within your means. If it’s for Joe, it’s a natural thing to do, but I can’t give my children’s heads for Joe. Hello.”
“Your master.”
“I will break the seal myself, so go get the hammer.”
“yes.”
“Wait a minute. Master Eosa, please hold off for a moment.”
When the painter firmly expressed his intention to break the seal, Ha Hu-dong hurriedly dissuaded him.
“Why?”
“Are you sure you want to break it?”
“Didn’t you tell me? This is something that doesn’t fit my fountain. I think it’s better not to have it. I definitely told you to deliver this seal to Queen Mupyeong.”
The fireman said with a solemn expression.
“I can’t have it. stuff you shouldn’t have. Since you refused to deliver, you should know that the responsibility lies with you as well as with me. Bring the hammer!”
Hahudong rolled his head enough to make a pinging sound.
‘I was told by the military to monitor this… wouldn’t it be a problem if we go on like this? Huh! However, if I didn’t take the seal with me, Jojo would be very disappointed. It’s hard to choose. Even though they participated in the war as reinforcements and did not make any achievements, they did not lose any soldiers. There will be no rebuke for him, so wouldn’t it be better to take the seal with him?’
Hahudong hurriedly waved his hand.
“All right! I understand, Master Eosa!”
Although he has a lower command than the generals, he has a higher authority to judge practical matters. That’s why the generals can’t come forward and oppose his words.
“We will go. We didn’t know that Eosa Daebu put so much thought on the Seal of the Seal. That’s why I wanted to help even a little bit more… If Eosa Daebu has that kind of heart, we’ll bring it to Mupyeonghu.”
The painter asked with a still stiff face.
“Can you really do that?”
“yes. It’s regrettable that I couldn’t make any contributions by participating in the war as a reinforcement, but I think the seal is more important than that.”
“I get it. Then take this and go back.”
When the painter handed out the box containing the seal, Ha Hu-dong carefully accepted it and returned to Shuchunseong with the managers.
Hwabu gave Woo Jin 10,000 troops to go to Shuchun with Xiahoudong.
The 10,000 soldiers were to protect Shuchun Castle if 30,000 of Cao Cao’s reinforcements escaped.

Hwabu, Zhuge Liang, Eulji and Myeongil climbed the watchtower and watched as Hahudong and his party disappeared with Woogeum’s soldiers.
“I was able to make an excuse to clear my eyes because there was a seal!”
If it were not for the lure of the seal, Hahudong would have been hovering around the fire department for a long time, serving as Cao Cao’s eyes.
What Sejak can see is fragmentary information, but people like Ha Hudong can see the whole. Because of that, I tried to take it out with another excuse, but when the seal was very important, it came out.
“Oh… the chaotic times are the chaotic times. I didn’t think Joe and I had a relationship like this…”
The painter was not at ease.
Even so, isn’t it Hwa-ta who was born with the fate of dying to Jojo? That’s why I’ve been trying hard not to lose Chuck if possible. In fact, compared to other powerful people, how many favors did Jojo do?
However, in the end, the conclusion goes like this.
“It’s not like it’s called Gan-ung. How would you like the Duke of Zhou to look after Wu Ping now?”
“Yes, you are right. I’ve been looking around a little since you said so much before, but now I really feel like I need to prepare.”
The fireman felt a little sick to his stomach as he spoke.
I was a little bit relieved that I was a brother-in-law, but seeing Jojo go this far, it seems that I have to be really careful in the future.
“But you did well in sending the seal this time. He obtained both the Xuju and Jingju without being sufficiently suspicious and alert. Perhaps if he hadn’t sent the seal, Mupyeonghu’s vigilance would have increased.”
“Honestly, I don’t have any greed for the seal. So I was really considering breaking it. However, since your words are infallible, I am just following my words.”
Eulji, who was listening to the conversation between Hwabu and Zhuge Liang, interjected.
“However, to say that there is no greed for the lordship is the same as saying that you will gradually fall behind in the aftermath. I am afraid that if one day the power of the Lord is revealed, the additional anger that I have deceived so far will be directed at the Lord.”
The painter raised his head and looked at the slowly setting sun, and opened his mouth.
“War should be similar to what it was originally to try.”
The reddish western sky seemed to tell us the reality of this country. The fireman made up his mind.
“If you think you can’t win no matter what, how dare you even dare to confront me?”
Eulji and Zhuge Liang’s mouths opened wide at the fireman’s words.
How many troops did Cao Cao have, his longevity and military, and even the justification for establishing the emperor? How great is its power?
What the painter said was, in a way, too mad.
“Are you talking about Mu Pyeong-hu?”
“no.”
The painter was still looking at the sunset.
“I’m about to make the world feel that way.”
* * *
As Hwabu expected, most of the governors who were under the power of Wonsul surrendered with a white flag before Hwabu even sent troops. Because of this, Jigu-gun and Yeogang-gun in Yangju, and parts of Namyang-gun, Gangha-gun, and Namgun in Jingju became the land of Hwabu.
Hwabu recruited talented people, supervised administration, and trained soldiers for a while in order to solidify this land larger than Yeju as his own.
Time passed, and when they thought they were ripe, they took out the giryeong and generals who had been put in prison, and they were already half-heartedly serving the painter. Even from their prison, the fireman had enough qualities as a Myeonggun.
Then, around the time Yuan Shu was sent to the imperial palace, Zhuge Kun visited He Fei City as Sun Ce’s messenger.
“In the war against Wonsul, Taesoo Son benefited a lot. When you get back, tell them I really appreciate it.”
“Your lord was also very happy to be able to help Eosa Daebu.”
“Are both wives in good health?”
“Yes, after Eosa Daebu treated it, it gradually got better, but now it seems that it is almost normal.”
“You always have to pay attention to the head, so it would be good to have a resident doctor.”
“I’m still doing that.”
“By the way, the brothers had a reunion after a long time, and we took up too much time. If there is a longer story, we will do it tomorrow.”
“Yes, the important story is now over.”
“Okay, then we’ll go and talk.”
“yes.”
After congratulating Sun Ce once more on his achievements, the painter set up a drinking party so that the brothers could share their friendship.
When Zhuge Geun and Zhuge Liang had time alone without the fireman and various ministers, they embraced each other and spent time asking how they were doing.
As time passed, Jegalgeun spoke first.
“If I had known that Congressman Heo Hwa would become the great emperor he is today, I would have been here too. What a pity!”
It was a very sincere tone of speech.
“Your brother is too.”
Zhuge Liang emptied his glass and continued.
“I thought I knew that I had learned, but it seems that I really don’t know about the world. Did you know that I would become the main governor? I just intervened with the thought that I should avoid danger because he was participating in the war between Yeju and Seoju as an army surgeon, but it happened that he fell in love with the Duke of Ju and made this happen.”
“Well, I was really surprised when I heard the news. To think that Congressman Hwa, who was not so greedy, would become the great emperor. There’s nothing to be surprised about, Eosa Daebu, but looking at things like that, I can’t see the future of people.”
“It is. In fact, even now, the Duke of Zhou tends to leave everything to his servants unless it is a very big problem. Then he runs straight to Uicheong and treats the patient with his disciples. So, the servants are working hard to die again to repay that trust.”
Hearing Zhuge Liang’s words, Zhuge Kun’s eyes widened.
“You became a great empress, but you still treat patients yourself? Wouldn’t that make the patients uncomfortable?”
“The majority of people who don’t know something, and even if they do know, they were surprised at first, but now they think so. I’m not someone who has any particular authority.”
“Well, Congressman Hwa is not that kind of person. Is that why the people follow you?”
“Since you take care of patients all night long, I am worried that the health of the governor will be damaged. By the way, brother.”
Zhuge Liang filled his glass and looked at Jegalgeun.
“I heard you became a general, but you probably didn’t come all the way here to see me, and if there is another reason, wouldn’t it be better to tell it before you drink more?”
Zhuge Liang himself knows how busy Zhuge Geun is, so he knows better than anyone else. There was no way he would come without incident like this.
“I just came. You see it, ask about the younger siblings, and put a stamp on Congressman Hwa. Why not?”
“…..”
“Actually, I wanted to come a long time ago, but I couldn’t because of Wonsul. Congressman Hwa won’t hold on to my steps, so I came to see some of my friends who have been upbeat.”
In an instant, Zhuge Liang’s eyes twinkled.
If my older brother deliberately took the time to come and meet me at a time like this, I could guess who they might be.
Of course, they are also close friends.
“I heard that when I went to Yeongcheon-gun to visit my brothers Seo and Hwi, they went south to avoid the winds of war. Are you here to meet them?”
“uh? How do you know?”
“Haha, anyway, I went there once. It is said that he fled to the south to avoid the war, but it seems that he was here. In fact, after winning the war against the Western Zhou, I took on a heavy job as a general commander, but it was too difficult for me. So I went to see Seo and Hwi.”
“Huh! This… got me into trouble. I’ve come to ask for help from the two of you too… I can’t believe you were looking first.”
“Brother, please yield this time. This is the land of the Duke of Ju, and of course it wouldn’t be right for the Duke of Ju to reap the talent.”
“This guy has become the man of Congressman Aju Hwa. ha ha ha!”
Jegalgeun said with a hearty laugh.
“Anyway, if the story of the two came out of your mouth, of course I have to concede. Then I will look for more talented people in Gangdong.”
“Even so, I heard that a person named Ju Yu is amazing. The last time he fought Yuyo, and this time against Yuan Shu, he came up with a lot of tricks.”
“Yes, he is a person like me. But even so, the more talent there is, the better.”
“Oh, we’re going to die because there’s no one like that. So come back. Do you really want to see your brother die?”
When Zhuge Liang showed his greed once again, Zhuge Kun shrugged and smiled.
“Yeah, didn’t you know? I already gave up.”
“Where are Seo and Hwi?”
“I saw them huddled together in Tongi’s neighborhood.”
