Login Murim Episode 869
After quickly sending Hyuk Mujin upstairs. As soon as dawn broke, I blocked the path of the Geumui Committee members who came to Jeonggak.
And I smiled brightly at the first familiar face I saw. “Oh, see you again?”
The old saying that you can’t spit on a smiling face is a lie.
Even though he waved his hand affectionately, Jeongho opened his mouth without even raising an eyebrow.
“What about His Majesty the King of Sangsan?”
I answered with a shrug.
“You were sleeping just a little while ago. “Until some rude bastards stormed in in the morning.”
“It’s already myo-si (卵時). “It’s never too early in the imperial palace.”
If it’s myoshi, it’s from 5 to 7 a.m.
I really wanted to explain children’s rights to that stone golem-like person, but since I came to Rome, it was right to follow Roman law.
Of course, it may have been the will of the Emperor, who is above all laws of the great country, to have appointed the Jinuiwi from an early hour.
“What business did you come for?”
“I have no obligation to tell you.”
“Then let me guess. “Is this finally a reunion of brothers?”
Only then did Jeongho react. The guy answered by wriggling his eyebrows so that he could clearly see them.
“His Majesty the King of Sangsan is to know His Majesty the Emperor.”
“okay. “If you shorten it to four letters, it’s a reunion of brothers.”
“Maybe it’s because it’s Kangho’s robber ship, but I don’t understand it at all. This is not just a reunion between brothers…
“Ah, I understand.”
I nodded with a serious face and continued speaking.
“A rather complicated sibling reunion. Right?”
“Do you think this is too bad? If it’s too long, should we change it to a brotherly reunion? Although one letter has been shortened, the meaning is similar.
As if trying to regain his mental and physical stability, Jeongho took a deep breath and then opened his mouth in a stern voice.
“······You’d better watch out for that cheeky snout. “Before you bring on yourself anger that you can’t handle.”
“Huh? Are you warning me now? “Didn’t you hear what Commander Neg promised yesterday that something like that would never happen to our Highness?”
“that······
“Looking at your expression, I guess you finally remembered. If you understand, let’s do better from now on. Don’t create problems for no reason. huh?”
As I grinned and tapped Jeong Ho-gun’s armor, a haze-like murderous glow rose from among the Gold Guards who stood like iron towers behind his back.
Wow.
hmm. The atmosphere is just amazing.
I may have been scratching my head more than necessary, but from what I’ve experienced so far, those types of people are bound to reveal their true feelings at least a little.
Like right now.
“I’m sure you also have no intention of causing trouble. Especially when you are tired like now. Isn’t it? Jin Tae-kyung of Taewonjinga.”
“what?”
“I’m only saying this because you look quite tired. “Like someone who didn’t sleep well last night.”
Unless you’re a fool, you’ll be able to tell that that one word Jeongho suddenly threw out wasn’t from pure intentions.
I calmly looked at the blade hidden in the guy’s sunken eyes and muttered to myself.
‘Look at this guy…
From the beginning, you get a strong feeling that you know something.
However, the deeper you think, the longer the silence becomes, which in turn instills greater doubt in the other person.
Knowing that fact, I frowned and answered.
“You can only sleep if your bed is comfortable. “If it were you, would you be able to get a good night’s sleep when black men are surrounding you on all sides?”
“It’s not a siege, it’s an escort. “To protect His Majesty King Sangsan.”
“Perhaps in the imperial palace, they usually write ‘guard’ and read ‘siege’?”
“That’s not even worth answering.”
“Then don’t answer. Oh, and while we’re at it, let me ask you one more thing…
I scratched the back of my head and continued.
“In this imperial palace ruled by His Majesty the Emperor, what on earth are you protecting His Highness King Sangsan from?”
“No, the more I think about it, the more strange it seems. When it comes to security, there are soldiers everywhere anyway, so I wonder if there is a need for even the Geumui Commission to be on guard to this extent. “If it’s a siege, I just don’t understand it.”
It’s a rumor. That’s perfect too.
This is bound to be difficult no matter which one of the two you choose.
If it is a guard, as I said, there is no reason at all, and if it is a siege, it is no different from testimony that the Geumwiwi is watching King Sangsan under the orders of a thousand characters.
And in this descriptive problem where you would get lost no matter which direction you went, what Jeong Ho-gun chose was silence, not an answer.
Catching up on someone who is at a loss for words is one of my specialties, and I say, “I asked as much as I could, but they didn’t say anything.”
“white lead. If it had been that guy, I think he would have given me some kind of answer. “Are you holding back what you say because you still lack rank?”
“This is why people need to succeed. When will you get promoted? Do you have annual leave or sick leave? “If I make trouble, will there be a problem with your performance evaluation?”
“Honestly, you were surprised when Commander Neg suddenly killed his subordinate yesterday, right? Does that person usually go out like that? I won’t tell anyone, so just talk to me. “I have sensitive earlobes, so I can’t whisper in my ear, so only once.”
It’s thrilling. It’s always new. Craving is the best.
I don’t know who this year’s Ballon d’Or winner will be, but Agal d’Or is not to be missed.
I teased Jeongho all over the place to get even a little more information.
Starting with Baek-yeon’s gossip behind his back, the promotion issue that causes headaches for office workers. From the average annual salary and overtime pay of the Geumuiui Commission, to what kind of shit-gun culture there is.
He literally touched everyone except the emperor.
And Jeongho, who had endured longer than expected, finally opened his mouth.
This was when I started to inquire about the family relationship after asking whether I was satisfied with Geumuiwi Ssambap.
“Now, just do it in moderation.”
Jeongho’s superhuman patience can be felt from one inhalation in the middle. I answered, nodding with some respect.
“So, you’re still an old bachelor?” “······!”
“Do not misunderstand. I’m not saying anything about not having a wedding at that age. To put it bluntly, I’m not even your parent. And I don’t think it’s a bad thing to be single because you don’t have to ruin anyone’s life for no reason. I don’t have to die because of this, so peppers, no shoulders, ·····
To put it bluntly, the shout I just heard did not belong to Jeongho.
One of the Golden Guards under my command, who had been showing off his complexion as colorful as a seven-colored rainbow earlier, finally lost his temper and rushed at me.
To be precise, it would be fair to say that as soon as I took a step, I was blocked. d
“stop. “I won’t tell you twice.”
With a deep voice, a palm full of calluses blocks the golden armor.
After confirming that the owner of the hand was the superior who had been insulted a moment ago, the warrior of the Geumuiui cried out in a boiling voice.
“Cheonho 奸戶）! How can you pick a guy like that?
It is heavy but not slow, and at the same time, it is cut concisely with the most efficient movement.
I let out a soft exclamation as I watched the Geumuiwi warrior faint without even moaning after being struck precisely in the chin by Jeonghogun’s blow.
For another reason, separate from the excellent movements shown by Jeongho.
“Wow, you really don’t say it twice.”
“It’s up and down.” “That is the military law that supports a great nation and the rules of the Jinui Committee.”
Jeong Ho-gun, who had handed over the subordinate he had personally defeated to other members of the Geumuiui, continued speaking while wiping the blood from his hands.
“The commander promised not to cause any harm, so this time I will also follow his orders.” “How about this time?”
“Any order is bound to be withdrawn depending on the situation. “There are no exceptions.”
His voice was as blunt as usual, but Jeongho’s eyes as he looked at me were as gloomy and rough as the wind and rain that blew last night.
An atmosphere that was not seen on the way to the Imperial Capital or even after arriving.
This was evidence that my mind was distracted, and my prediction was correct.
“well. “I don’t think the order will be revoked because the situation hasn’t changed yet.”
“Do you think so?”
“of course.”
In response to my naturally virtuous answer, Jeongho, who narrowed the distance and came closer, whispered lowly.
“I sincerely warn you that if you engage in vain tricks in this palace where His Majesty the Emperor resides, you will never be able to avoid disaster.”
“If anyone hears it, they’ll definitely think that we’ve already done a trick.”
“From Chukshi (mark time) to Inshi (黃時). “There were three red lights on.” “what?”
“According to what I heard, Milma from my hometown was also like this. maybe.” At that moment, my heart was beating loudly.
In a congratulatory poem, a person’s poem. It coincides exactly with the time Masambo came to visit.
‘Plus, there’s even a signal using a red light.’
I’m glad Jeongho didn’t make eye contact because he was whispering in my ear.
Otherwise, even the slightest, slightest movement would have been visible.
However, after experiencing many things so far, I have learned how to suppress my emotions.
I laughed so quietly that no one could notice, and quickly calmed down my breathing and pulse.
“erythema. If the guy was red, he would be thrilled. “Don’t you get the sense when you see your lips painted that color all the time?”
“Yes, I can feel it. He, too, once belonged to a classmate. “I would have had to call someone who could help me, even if it meant using old-fashioned milma.”
Is this doubt or certainty?
After countless thoughts passed through my mind like flashes, I came to one conclusion.
‘trap.’
Hong Jin-do and Masambo are not very shabby people.
No, on the contrary, of all the people I have met so far, I could probably count them among the top five to be thorough.
The imperial palace is a place where only such people can survive.
Moreover, if Milma was obvious enough for Jeongho to recognize, there was no way he would have taken such a risk and contacted her.
‘You must not get caught.’
All decisions were made so quickly that it could be called a split second.
My movements continued straight away. Tuk.
I pushed away Jeongho’s body, which was close to me, and curled the corners of my mouth as naturally as possible.
“For f*ck’s sake, write a novel. “Novel.”
“He’s a classmate and he’s my friend, I don’t know. I ended up getting caught up in something complicated, so I wrapped my head and got lost in thought. I really can’t believe it
“If you want, try framing me.” There is no physical evidence or witnesses.
This is a trap.
The answer that Jeongho would give, as he stared into my unwavering eyes, was almost as if it had already been decided.
“It was particularly noisy last night. “Rough rain and wind and thunderstorms resounded non-stop.”
“so?”
“There is no particular meaning. “That’s it.”
What’s in those pitch black eyes?
Is it a string of doubts that I can’t let go of?
Or is it just a feeling of regret when simple viewing fails?
This time, I couldn’t make a clear decision, and I wasn’t given enough time to do so.
“Did you wait long?”
Jerk. Jerk.
The footsteps of three people walking down the stairs with their characteristic androgynous voices.
Immediately, King Jeongho and his subordinates, who straightened their posture, saluted the young king who had just appeared.
“god. Geumuiwi Cheonho Jeong Ho-gun. “I have come to take away His Majesty the King of Sangsan.”
Hong Jin, who was standing behind the nervous-looking King Sangsan, smiled bitterly.
“You’re still impatient. No, I must say that she waited longer than expected, since she waited for one day at a time.”
“Please refrain from speaking, Comrade Provincial Commander.”
“It’s scary too. Then I…”
“You can’t go together.”
Jeong Ho, who coolly cut Hong Jin off, continued with an unexpected remark.
“The ones who have been called by His Majesty the Emperor are His Highness King Sangsan and Jin Tae-gyeong of the Taewonjin family. “Because it’s just these two people.”
what?
