Episode 924 Wow, you really have no shame. (4)
The courts of the world bowed their heads. The scene made even Hwasan’s disciples who were watching remain silent.
‘The master of Shaolin….’
To our Jangmunin.
Perhaps it is a sight that should make one feel proud. It was only a few years ago that the volcano collapsed and even the building was almost taken away. It was an amazing thing that Hyeonjong, who was nothing more than a member of a third-rate sect that had fallen to that point, had risen to the position of receiving bows from the Shaolin master within a few years.
But no one here felt any sense of satisfaction. I was just astonished and surprised by this unbelievable situation.
“Don’t do this, boss. “I don’t know what to do with myself.”
“Lord.”
The court said, holding Hyeonjong’s hand tightly as he tried to help himself up.
“I will not deny the fact that Shaolin sinned against the volcano. “No matter how much we didn’t have the resources, if the volcano had closed, we should have dealt with the Safa factions flocking to Shaanxi.”
“….”
“Please forgive me for not being able to do that.”
“…How can you say that’s wrong?”
A faint groaning sound came from Hyeonyoung’s mouth.
Shaolin and Huashan have been harboring ill feelings for a long time. In particular, the part that was the deciding blow was that case that came out of the mouth of the court. Until then, it could have been dismissed as something that happened because of differences in opinion, but there was a clear sense of malice in this incident.
This would never have happened if Shaolin had thought of Hwasan as a friend.
However, the court bowed its head, mentioning that very point first. If a person with the highest status as the head of Shaolin were to appear in such a low manner, King Hyeonjong would be helpless.
If Hyeonjong were to raise his stance here, it was clear that those who heard about this without knowing the deep situation would criticize him.
‘That’s scary.’
Easier said than done. The logic is simple.
However, how could it be so easy for the leader of Shaolin, known as Gangho’s Bukdu, to bow his head to someone? It wouldn’t be easy to simply bow your head, so is it really possible to lie down on the floor like that?
It is an unimaginable blow. Even if the person who got hit wasn’t the gentle Hyeonjong, he wouldn’t have been able to find a way to respond.
“The volcano does not blame Shaolin. “How can I blame Shaolin when I know that Shaolin is working tirelessly for the stability of Hanam?”
“…Lord.”
“It’s just… it’s sad and unfortunate that there are people who have fallen victim to the hands of that evil Sapa.”
Hyeonjong sighed deeply.
“So don’t do this, boss. “I can’t handle it.”
The court nodded and sat down again. Only then did Hyeonjong take his hands off the court and return to his original position.
Just then, Unam came inside with teaware.
“Jangmun-in.”
“okay.”
Hyeonjong accepted the teaware offered by Unam with the feeling that it was better.
“I think the order has changed a little, but I will serve you tea.”
“What greater luxury could there be than this: tea given to you by the Lord of Heaven and Earth.”
“…I’m just grateful that you think so.”
Hyeonjong began to brew tea with a slightly pale complexion. As I held the familiar teapot, I felt my startled heart calm down a little.
“Here it is.”
“Thank you, Lord Maeng.”
The court took a sip of the tea offered by Hyeonjong and smiled.
“The plum blossom tea from Huashan is truly excellent. “I think it’s better than any tea I’ve ever had.”
“It’s just that we couldn’t get as good tea as other places, so we dried the plum blossoms that were scattered around the mountain. How can it be compared to the famous cars in the world?”
“If it has its own unique characteristics, how can it be considered inferior to a rare car?”
The atmosphere relaxed a little.
However, astute people knew that the court was still taking the lead and leading the situation.
‘As expected, the leader of Shaolin….’ He
wasn’t particularly intimidating, nor was he showing off his status. However, this does not mean that he scolded people. Nevertheless, everyone in the room could not take their eyes off the court’s every move.
widely.
The court carefully put down the teacup in its hand.
“Lord.”
“Please tell me, room manager.”
“As I said, the situation on the Yangtze River is not good.”
“…yes.”
“The Namgung family independently occupied Maehwa Island. There is no way that Sapaeryun would tolerate the existence of the Namgung family, who are aiming their daggers right in front of their territory.”
Hyeonjong frowned.
“Will the situation become that urgent? In fact, the island named Maehwado….”
“Yes. “It was clear that the island was occupied by a volcano.”
Hyeonjong quietly nodded. Nevertheless, there were no problems for three years.
“But the Hwasan and Namgung families are different. “Hwasan had no intention of attacking Gangnam, but the Namgung family is clearly provoking them.”
What should have been said originally was that the Sapaeryun treats the Gu Sect and the Cheonwoo Maeng differently.
But the court did not bother to say those words. This is not good for him or Hwasan.
“There is no way the Black Dragon King could endure the attack. And… the loser will definitely move too. “If the two main axes of the SPA Federation move, the entire SPA Federation will eventually move.”
The court closed its mouth for a moment and looked at the people around it. The eyes that looked at each person were resolute and full of power.
“In that case, it is the common people who ultimately suffer.”
“….”
“It’s a shame, but right now, the nine-file room is not enough to control the scam. So, Lord. Please lend me your strength. “If Cheon Woo-maeng is with us, even that Sapae-ryeon will not dare to invade Gangbuk so easily.”
“Mmm.”
Hyeonjong frowned slightly and fell asleep. The term ‘good people’ bothered me.
He also knows that So-rim did not reveal all of her true feelings anyway. And in any case, Hyeonjong cannot tell them all his true feelings.
However, no matter what his hidden intentions are, the current Shaolin cannot control his love affair. It is clear that the damage will be directed not to Shaolin but to the common people. This was an undeniable fact.
Hyeonjong opened his heavily closed mouth.
“What I can’t easily understand is…”
“Yes.”
“Is it really difficult to deal with the Sapaelian with the power of the nine factions and the five major families?”
This time the court closed its eyes for a moment.
It’s something he doesn’t want to say out of his mouth, but hiding it now isn’t the answer.
“It’s because I’m not good enough.”
“….”
Hyeonjong did not ask any more questions. Because I already heard it from Cheongmyeong.
‘Then how should I do this?’
The situation is simple. Nowadays, the sects that follow Shaolin alone cannot stop the Sapae ryeon from moving north to the Yangtze River.
And the factions in Sacheon and the northern part of the central plains do not want to fight and shed blood in places that are not their territory.
If the Sapaeryun were truly so powerful that they could not even be touched, they would have been able to unite at least superficially. However, the problem was that the current Sapaeryeon was not strong enough for everyone to risk their lives.
Hyeonjong also has no desire to fight alongside Shaolin. Moreover, dealing with scammers is something that must be done.
But everything involves sacrifice. Is there any reason for the volcano to step forward if others do not?
okay. Unless it’s for those civilians.
“Hmm.”
As Hyeonjong’s worries continued, the court opened its mouth again.
“It’s not for the sake of the nine families and the five families. Please think of all the people in the world who will suffer if war breaks out, Lord…”
“All the people in the world?”
At that moment, a crooked voice was heard.
The court opened its eyes that had been quietly closed. He also knows that from now on it is real.
“That’s right, all people of the world.”
“iced coffee. Shaolin is definitely different. He knows how to bow his head for the sake of all people in the world. “To be honest, I was a bit surprised.”
Cheongmyeong smiles and looks at the court. But everyone in this room, including the court, knew.
That smile is never real.
“But…”
Sure enough, Cheongmyeong’s laughter gradually turned into a crooked sneer.
“Don’t you think the situation is a bit ridiculous to believe that literally?”
“…What does it mean?”
“To me, it seems like you’re a fool to want war, don’t you think?”
“Cheongmyeong!”
Baekcheon was startled by Cheongmyeong’s words. Even in his view, this was a remark that crossed a line.
The court’s face, which had maintained a gentle expression, slightly hardened.
“May I ask why you think that way?”
“It’s simple. “What should we do to prevent the civilians from being harmed?”
“…We have to stop the scam.”
“Wrong.”
Qingming shook his head.
“What needs to be prevented is war, not SPA. Just because there is a scam, it doesn’t mean that the common people are suffering. At least Gangbuk.”
“….”
“If you are not planning to push into Gangnam, the best way to protect the civilians is not to start a war. But the room manager is only thinking about winning the fight. “Isn’t that right?”
“They want war, so what can I do to stop it?”
“You’re not asking because the head of Shaolin doesn’t know that, right?”
Cheongmyeong’s sneer became even deeper.
“If you really wanted to prevent war, you should have gone to the Yangtze River instead of running here. And even if it meant beating up Emperor Namgung, he should have dragged the Namgung family out of Maehwa Island.”
“….”
“If the Namgung family is satisfied with recovering Gangbuk and does not attack Maehwado Island, it will not be the situation where you are pointing a sword at your neck as you mentioned. Although Surochae has been humiliated, if Maehwado is returned to him, he will not be able to start a war on his own.”
The court looked at Qingming with a blank face.
“What do you know? If that happens, Shaolin will get all kinds of criticism. At best, the land that the Namgung family has recovered is given over to the enemy. Shaolin is afraid of the Sa-Pae-ryeon and avoids fighting. The Shaolin leader is a coward….” “….” “
But
.”
Cheongmyeong paused for a moment and shrugged his shoulders.
“Instead of being criticized, Shaolin can save people.”
The court’s body trembled slightly. Because Cheongmyeong’s last words pierced his heart.
“why? “I guess you didn’t even think about it?”
The court could not bear to answer. Clearly this method was not considered. No, it didn’t even exist in his head in the first place.
The reason flowed from Cheongmyeong’s mouth.
“Of course you didn’t think about it. In the head of the room, Shaolin comes before anything else in the world. You would never have thought of a situation where Shaolin is criticized in order to correct what the Namgung family did. And it must have been unbearable to give the impression that Shaolin was afraid of the Sa-Pae-Ryeon.”
“I just…”
“No, well… I don’t mean to criticize. Of course it can. Honestly, it feels really bad. It must be unfair for the host. Because it wasn’t my fault. I completely understand. But…”
A cold gaze fell on the court.
Soon, the corners of Cheongmyeong’s mouth twisted, revealing white teeth.
“Then at least you shouldn’t have pretended to care about the people by talking about the common people or all the people in the world. “You hypocrite.”
The court eventually closed its eyes.
But there was no way to stop the voice coming through my two pierced ears.
