Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 812
Episode 812. I’m sorry about Moorim’s Dongdo.
December.
Cheongseongsan.
After losing the battle, the provincial commander, Gu Si-wu, transferred the troops 10 li (about 4 km) away from Mt. Cheongseong.
Even when the twelfth month came, he did not return the four soldiers to their original posts.
No, it went one step further.
The wounded were returned to the garrison, and troops were replenished at other guard posts.
People said, ‘It’s over even if you’re married’ to the provincial commander’s determined attitude.
This is because the imperial family’s attitude toward the younger enemy is strong.
No matter how much Murim people fly and run, they cannot win against the country.
People believed that the downfall of Yeonjeokha was only a matter of time.
“The provincial commander and the golden guard are sharpening their knives.”
“Soon the Geumgun will move, and then the linkage will be over.”
“It’s a dangrang geocheol (螳螂拒enemy). One person cannot overcome the gold army.”
As the provincial commander burned his will to fight to the end, it was the Cheongseong faction that was in trouble.
They thought they were embroiled in a quarrel between the enemy and the royal family.
The elders of the Qingcheng Faction gathered at the Shangcheng Palace every day and devised a way to send the couple out.
To the Qingshengpa guru, it was like ‘a mouse putting a bell around a cat’s neck’.
Shangcheng Palace.
About noon the elders came in droves.
Wonyang Jin-in, a long-time scholar, looked around at the elders with a weary face.
It’s almost disgusting to see them come every single day in December.
“So, what are you doing here today?”
Venerable Deokyang, the brother-in-law of Jinin Wonyang and the representative of the elders, said with a wry smile.
“I fully understand that it is a long and difficult sentence, but now I can’t put it off any longer.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I was descending the mountain for a while this morning, and I met the person sent by Hajijin Cheonho.”
Wonyang Jinyin nodded.
After the provincial commander was bitten by the military, the Qingsong faction was free to come and go in the village.
Some people call it the calm before the typhoon.
“Are you saying you came from the golden chair?”
“exactly. It is said that the provincial commander and the royal guard made an appeal to the emperor.”
“If it’s Sangso…”
“It’s about Yeonjeok-ha, but since the Cheongseong faction is protecting him, they say the Cheongseong faction isn’t without responsibility.”
“Protection. He must have clearly known what our situation is like…”
Jinin Wonyang looked at the Venerable Deokyang with amazed eyes.
It was an absurd thing to say to protect him in a situation where the Cheongseong faction was watching him.
“Bindo tried to tell the story in an easy-to-understand manner, but he didn’t even try to listen. If the golden army is really mobilized, then we won’t be able to get over it safely.”
“What do you say about Gold Army?”
“I have filed an appeal, so they say that action will be taken soon. They believed that the emperor would send gold troops.”
“Do you really want the gold army to come?”
“I don’t know about the soldiers of the guard, but isn’t the golden chair the same as the emperor’s face? There are many people who died and were injured on the golden chair. Can you just watch? When I went to the village, I saw that even children with snuffers were playing and pretending to be the golden army.”
That’s true.
Recently, among children in Sichuan Province, the game of ‘becoming a gold soldier and beating the enemy enemy’ has become popular.
When Wonyang Jin-in was silent, Geumyang Jin-in said a word.
“Long sentence death penalty. I know it’s difficult, but Brother Jang Moon has to step in and give it to me. You don’t know what will happen to you if you continue like this.”
The elders threw a word at a time as if they thought it was this time.
“you’re right. Hasn’t it been a month since Namgung’s wife also gave birth? If you do this, I think that Cheongseongpa has provided a lot of convenience. You have to close what you want to do, and what you want to quit. I know you shouldn’t hear that the Cheongseong faction is protecting Yeondaehyeop.”
“The Yeondaehyup has gone too far. The number of Geumuiwi is small, so even so, the soldiers of the Wiso have suffered too much. This is war. War. We, the Cheongseong faction, cannot intervene in the war between the Yan Daehyeop and the imperial family.”
“Oh! You can’t intervene. Isn’t there a saying, ‘In a cucumber field, don’t tie your shoelaces, and under a plum tree, don’t straighten a hat’? We must not do anything wrong. I need to export it. Otherwise, even we will hear the sound of high treason.”
The atmosphere became even more heavy when the word that he was a high treason came out.
Thousands of guard soldiers were killed or injured following the Geumui Committee, so treason was not a hasty speculation.
The Taoists of the Cheongseongpa regarded it as a matter of time before they heard that Yeonjeokha was a high treason.
At the words of the elders, Jin-in Wonyang could not refute.
Not a single word was wrong.
Come to think of it, it has already been over a month since I gave birth at the royal palace.
It is too much to suddenly rush into the catheter and do postpartum care for over a month.
Of course, if it’s a peaceful time, I can wait as long as I can.
Doing that much for Namcheon Yeon Jeok-ha and Namgung-yeon, the queen of ten warlords, is not a job.
However, if he commits a life-threatening act against the Geumuiwi and Guard soldiers at the detached palace like now, the words will change again.
‘No matter how much the inaction of the great agreement reaches the sky, if you become a high-sinner…’
It’s right to organize your relationship with him.
If Geumgun was dragged along like this and attacked, the Cheongseong faction would disappear without a trace.
“Okay! All right. I agree with several elders’ opinions. Bindo will ask Yeon Daehyeop to leave the Cheongseongpa immediately.”
Wonyang Jin-in said only that far.
If Yeonjeokha refuses, it is because there is nothing he can do.
The faces of the elders lit up at his answer.
Yeon Jeok-ha has such a thick face that he might let it go through one ear, but Namgung-yeon is different.
If she listened to the Qingsheng faction’s request, she would definitely pack up and leave.
***
Byeolgung.
Wonyang Jin-in, suffering from the elders, reluctantly visited Yeon Jeok-ha and Namgung-yeon.
But asking him to leave wasn’t easy either.
Namgoongyeon’s voice came to his ears as he watched until the tea cooled down.
“Wonyang Jin-in hasn’t said anything since a while ago. Do you have any concerns?”
Wonyang Jin-in, who had been hesitant, took luck because he thought it was an opportunity.
“Recently, Bindo has a big problem.”
“What is it?”
Namgoongyeon’s voice was still soft.
Wonyang Jin-in finally spoke thanks to her calm complexion.
“Mrs. Namgung, do you know that these days the elders come to Shangcheong Palace every day?”
“I heard that old Taoists often gather in Shangcheng Palace.”
Namgoongyeon looked at Jinin Wonyang with meaningful eyes.
It was a fact that Wol-a and Geum-a learned about by chattering.
“Recently, it seems that my brother-in-law went to the village and met the golden guard. They said they would hold the Qingsong faction accountable. When the elders heard that, they said, ‘Isn’t it time to let the two of you go?’”
“…”
He shook his head with a face that seemed insignificant.
He was not the kind of person who would go out just because someone told him to leave, so he let it go through one ear.
But Namgoongyeon is different.
Growing up under strict education at the Murim family, she hated being a nuisance to others.
“I see. It’s already been over a month since they gave us the villa. You don’t want to be misunderstood as one of them, so you’re asking me to vacate the palace, right?”
Even so, Namgung-yeon is a woman who likes the obvious.
At this point, if the Qingsheng faction wanted to cut off the relationship, he would do whatever he wanted.
Wonyang Jin-in immediately recognized the meaning behind her words.
It was a conflict for a while, but if I had to choose between the imperial family and the stone sutra, the answer was clear.
“To be honest, we, the Cheongseong faction, can’t help but notice the imperial family. I think the Yeondaehyeop is right, but I have to think about the future of the Cheongseong faction…”
So he didn’t say that he had chosen the imperial family.
A wise person like Nam Goong-yeon would understand without saying anything.
Yeonjeokha, who was listening by the side, suddenly interrupted.
“Stop talking. Since we have to think about the future of the Qingsheng faction, what? What to do? Are you asking me to leave the palace?”
Jinin Wonyang lowered his eyes and answered quietly.
“…yes. I have no face, but I would appreciate it if you would do that.”
“What if I don’t go out?”
“What can we do with the great alliance that defeated 22,000 soldiers from the Golden Guard and the Four Guards? I just beg you to leave.”
It’s hard to say at first, but once you say it once, the next one is easy.
Wonyang Jin-in avoided Yeonjeok-ha’s gaze, but unlike the first time, he made his words clear.
When Yeonjeokha said that Wonyang Jin-in begged him, he kept his mouth shut.
He is the kind of person who gets stronger when the opponent is strong and weakens when the opponent is weak.
Naturally, when Wonyang Jinin begged him, he couldn’t show his temper any more.
Namgung-yeon has a different disposition from Yeonjeok-ha.
She did not adjust her pace according to the opponent’s attitude.
“I’ll get you out. Thank you for letting me stay at the villa for a month. In the end, I understand the feeling of choosing the imperial family over the couple. However, it can be said that it is an act of abandoning the agreement. It’s a pity that Moorim’s Dongdo.”
“I apologize.”
Yuanyang Jin-in did not make excuses.
Anyway, I just want to break up with Yeon Jeok-ha as soon as possible.
It hurts my heart when it comes to the part of the agreement, but I couldn’t help it.
That side is better than being subjugated by the gold army.
You have to be alive to negotiate and find the way.
Wonyang Jin-in, who had been watching Namgung-yeon and Yeon Jeok-ha carefully, spoke.
“If you let me know when you are leaving, I will prepare the necessary items.”
The words were to ask for the date of preparation.
As they became more and more explicit, Namgung-yeon spoke coldly.
“I will no longer accept the help of the Qingsheng sect. I will be leaving by the middle of the day, so know that.”
Wonyang Jin-in was surprised to hear that he was going out today.
It was because it was really thought that the Qingsheng faction was expelling the Yanjeokha and his wife.
“You don’t have to be in such a hurry, Mrs. Namgung.”
“no. There is no reason to stay any longer in a place where we don’t consider each other as friends. Knowing that, stop going back. I hope there will be no face-to-face encounter with the Qingsong faction again.”
At Namgung-yeon’s decree to celebrate, Jin-in Wonyang stood up awkwardly.
I don’t know why he’s so uncomfortable when he and the elders are obviously right.
When Wonyang Jin-in left, Yeon Jeok-ha asked.
“Sister, are you really going out today?”
“I have to go. People say that when people are in danger, their true nature comes out… How can you ignore right and wrong while paying attention to those in power? I don’t want to be here any longer.”
“It’s midwinter, so let’s go to Seokgyeongjang?”
“no. All you have to do is leave the Cheongseong faction. Old Sim.”
At Namgung-yeon’s call, Heartache, who had been resting in the next room, came running.
“yes.”
“Get an outbuilding in the village under the mountain. It doesn’t matter if it’s an inn or a commoner’s house. Say you will only use it until spring.”
“All right.”
My heartache passed through the palace like the wind.
A woman who was helping with postpartum care asked cautiously.
“lady. What shall we do if we go to the lower village?”
“I heard the house is over there, is that right?”
“yes.”
“Then why don’t we help from morning to evening and then go home? Can you do that?”
“Yes yes. Then I am better.”
The woman smiled broadly.
This is why it is better to go back and forth near the house than to the villa.
