I Reincarnated as a Legendary Surgeon - Chapter 400
Episode 400. Also Zhuge! (1)
“We follow orders.”
As the vanguard strode forward, the two guards next to Cao Cao held him down tightly.
Cao Cao looked into the avant-garde’s eyes and smiled.
“Come to think of it, if it wasn’t for you back then, I wouldn’t have been alive until now. I don’t think I was able to properly say thank you…. Thank you.”
“Goodbye. My old lord!”
The avant-garde slightly bowed his head toward Cao Cao, then swung his spear and cut his throat at once.
squeak.
Fuahak …..
The neck was cut off, blood was exhausted, and Jojo’s body was torn down.
After closing the spear, the vanguard took a step back and looked at the fireman.
“I have carried out my main mission.”
“Good work. After showing it to His Majesty, I have to send it to my family.
“I take orders.”
The avant-garde collected Cao Cao’s body with a strange expression that could not be said.
The fireman looked up at the vanguard who was collecting the corpses, and looked up at the western sky, which was dyed red as the sun had already gone down.
“The sky is so red that it comes up once!”

When the news of Cao Cao’s beheading spread everywhere, many of the soldiers who fled returned and surrendered, but some who did not escaped hid into the mountains and became bandits or went to Cao Cao’s sons.
The fireman entrusted Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu with the task of organizing them, and he carried the body of the deceased Cao Cao back to Heo Island, where the emperor was.
“Meet Your Majesty the Emperor.”
When the painter raised his bow, Emperor Heon-je nodded.
“I heard that you killed the wicked traitor Cao Cao. It was a lot of work.”
“I just did what I had to do.”
“I would like to thank you for your hard work. Do you have anything you want?”
“I just wish for the safety of His Majesty.”
“Heh heh heh, because of the godfather, my heart has never been as calm as it is today. Furthermore, the Hwasaja who governs Seoju reassuringly guarded the imperial kingdom, so much so that the flesh on his face grew like a wolf.”
The painter smiled bitterly at the emperor’s greasy face.
It was a matter of looking at things from a different point of view between just talking and saying things and actually feeling better and gaining weight because my body and mind were at ease.
The current emperor was like a lantern in front of the wind.
If he was asked to hand over the imperial power right away, he would not have the power to refuse.
But how can I feel at ease?
‘Is the country like this because the emperor’s vessel is this much?’
It occurred to me that maybe it wasn’t because of the ten thousand times or the corrupt officials.
The emperor himself might not have been that immature.
“We will dispose of Seung-sang Cho’s body at will and send it to his family.”
“family? Did you save Jo Seung-sang’s family?”
The emperor tilted his head at the fireman’s words.
“I don’t intend to lay a hand on my family because I have a friendship from the past.”
“Even if Father Hua was generous, the family members of Seungsang Cho would not accept it innocently.
“I’m thinking of sending the body away and telling them to leave. If you don’t accept it, you will have to bleed.”
“Hehehe Godfather is really unique in distribution!”
“I should have received permission from His Majesty first, but the situation was urgent, so I decided everything.”
“Why do you take Yun Heo from an emperor who is only a facade?”
The emperor’s direct words gave the painter a slightly surprised expression.
No matter how comfortable he was with his opponent, it was not an easy thing to say in the current situation.
“yes? Are you offended by my behavior?”
“No, I am telling the truth. Don’t you know that just because you wear yellow clothes in the imperial palace, are waited on by ladies-in-waiting, and eat good food, you’re not an emperor?”
The painter looked into the emperor’s eyes for a moment. It was only then that he could see that his eyes were empty.
“I wondered because his complexion improved, but you put down a lot of things while I was gone.”
“I have no choice but to let it go. When I let go of everything, I was able to enjoy even the smallest things. Well, judging from Godfather’s tendencies, it doesn’t look like he’ll dethrone me right away.”
“You seem to have had a significant change of heart, but did something unsavory happen while I was gone?”
“No. It is only now that I know my subject.”
Seeing the empty smile of the emperor, the painter did not say anything for a while.
“Since the words have come out, let’s put it off and discuss the things we’ve only noticed. It’s something I have to say anyway.”
“yes? What do you want to say?”
“Since Godfather Hua has only one daughter, it would be awkward to transfer the throne. Would Godfather Hua directly transfer the throne?”
The fireman’s eyes widened again at the emperor’s words.
There have been rumors about the abdication of the imperial authority, but no one has yet directly revealed it to the surface.
However, it was unexpected that the emperor would directly mention it like this.
“I have no interest in your position.”
“huh? I don’t understand what you are talking about. You’re not going to keep me sitting here, are you? I wish you could tell me what’s on your mind.”
Be fooled!
Originally, it was intended to be said after creating an atmosphere through the servants, but when the emperor spoke out, I thought it would be better to throw it away.
“I heard that while my brother was doing the Xuzhou self-sacrificing, numerous refugees flocked to Xuzhou because of the rich harvest and the prosperity of the people.”
“Seeing you say that, it seems that you want to hand over the imperial authority to your older brother.”
“yes. I have no experience in governing even small prefectures, so I am unfamiliar with administration and measures.
After the cooker’s words were finished, the emperor looked into the cooker’s eyes with a strange expression for a moment.
“I can’t believe I’m yielding to my brother… Even if you look at the former emperors, they would kill their older brother, kill their younger brother, and even kill their parents or nephews in order to sit in this seat. How could that be?”
“Somehow, I became a feudal lord, fought several feudal lords, won victories, and occupied a large land, but that was just passing by. I’m a member of Congress and I just want the world to be peaceful. I just feel like my ability is too lacking on the way to making that peace.”
“From what I heard, not only here Yeju, but also Ikju, Hyeongju, Yeonju and Saju. I heard that quite a few state officials and people praise Godfather of Fire, do you really think that you are incompetent?”
“It is because I have great strength that many states praise me.”
“You are too humble. I heard that the governors of various states or those appointed as prefectural governors kicked out the corrupt ducks and put upright scholars in their place. How can you say you don’t have the ability?”
“It’s because the people who help me choose the officials well. I didn’t do it.”
“Choosing the right people to manage. If you do that well, you will do well as emperor.”
“Why are you so eager to hand over the throne to me all of a sudden?”
At the fireman’s question, the emperor let out a long sigh and turned his head to look at the sky outside the window.
“The emperors of my ancestors were so ugly that the people live in the return of their fathers, right? So now I want someone smarter to sit here and live a little more comfortably for the people.”
“Flower company will fully fulfill His Majesty’s wish.”
“No, he’s a godfather. Since he’s the older brother, he’ll only see good things, but honestly, from my point of view, he’s just an incompetent person who became a company thanks to his younger brother. If such a person sits in this seat, he will surely end up like me and my ancestors. Then the people will be so pitiful.”
“I didn’t know that His Majesty thought of the people this way.”
The painter smiled bitterly.
If he had been so sane in the past, he would not have even thought of dethroning.
Unfortunately, the emperor’s current state of health was that his mental illness had already ruined his body, so he would not live long no matter how good the medicine was.
Even if the color of the face has improved by enjoying the peace of mind for a while, the disease that is deeply rooted in the body continues to eat away at life.
“I didn’t know it before… Now that my situation has changed, I’m starting to see how devastated the lives of the people are! last time it was A mother puts her children in a pot and boils them to eat?”
“yes.”
“I hope that doesn’t happen now.”
“Since His Majesty’s edict banning cannibalism has been issued in counties, counties and counties across the country, the occurrence of people eating people will significantly disappear from now on.”
“If this era continues, how can such a miserable reality disappear with the emperor? In the end, it will disappear only if you don’t go hungry.”
“…..”
“Since ancient times, a benevolent ruler like Godfather Hwa governs the country so that the people can live well.”
“I really have no interest in the throne.”
“Do I have to do something funny, such as I recommend several times in front of my servants and then Godfather refuses one after another?”
“no. I’m not really interested in the throne. So, please delegate the throne to my brother who ruled well in Xuzhou.”
The Emperor looked into the fireman’s eyes with a disbelieving expression, but when the fireman’s eyes were too serious, he shook his head.
“If you’re really serious, I don’t understand!”
“My wish is to heal the sick as a doctor. Please consider the meaning of the small sign.”
“Heh, I knew. If Godfather of Hua refuses even after saying this… I will hand over the imperial power to the Hua company. Please take good care of Hwaja so that he can rule this country well.”
“Your last name is ruined.”
As the painter bowed his head deeply, the emperor smiled bitterly.

“The son of Cao Cao, the Duke of Zhou, came to retrieve his father’s body with an offering.”
Hearing the report from his subordinate, the fireman put on a slightly stunned expression.
Joang was the one who treated the painter directly together with the vanguard.
It’s nice to see it, but it’s a strange evil that can’t be welcome.
“Angi came all the way here? It’s quite a long way, and I would have had to pass through numerous castles…
”
“Ah, that’s how it happened. Okay, go ahead.”
“yes.”
After a while, Joang came in with his men carrying gifts and prostrated himself in front of the fireman.
“I haven’t seen you in a long time. Uncle.”
“It’s been a while for me too! I haven’t seen you on the battlefield, but are you feeling better?”
“After receiving treatment from my uncle, I feel much better, and now I am able to do various chores.”
“Are you still calling me uncle who killed your father?”
“The relationship between my father and my uncle was ruined because of the cruel world, but I think the friendship between the two of them will never change.”
“It’s a savage world… Yes, maybe we live in a savage world. In fact, I was going to have my subordinates send Joe’s body to you.”
“I think it is the right thing for a child to come and take care of his father’s body.”
“Yes, you are right. Ah, before I kill your father, I have a pact with your father. Will you listen?”
“Tell me.”
“Your father did not want you and your family to die at my hands.”
“…..”
“So I made a pact not to pursue you if you guys ran away to Nangrangguk at the eastern end of Yuju.”
“It’s Nakrang-kun.”
“So, are you thinking of going to Nakrang County?”
In response to the fireman’s question, Joang couldn’t open his mouth for a while with a complicated expression on his face.
