Episode 263
Confession (1)
Prince Moyong was not embarrassed.
“What do you mean? “A public ambassador?”
The officer just glared at him in silence.
It was a very different atmosphere from usual. He was originally sharp and vicious, but now he was ready to make a life-or-death decision.
Yonghwajin cleared his throat.
“Dang family. “I don’t know what’s going on, but why don’t you just sit down and talk?”
Teng Tianqiao also nodded.
“That would be great. And kill that momentum. “If you’re not careful, poison will get mixed into your food.”
The official smiled coldly.
“If I had planned to mix poison in your food, you would all have died before you even knew.”
Teng Tianqiao frowned.
“Your words are harsh.”
“I have something to say to the head of the Moyong family. “Please leave out the three unrelated people.”
“Hey, Dangaju!”
At that time, Moyong raised his hand.
“Calm down.”
Deng Tianqiao glared at Tang Guan in silence, and Yonghwajinin looked much more relaxed than expected.
Prince Moyong said while looking at the party hall.
“It seems like he doesn’t like this kind of situation, so I didn’t tell the head of the party about it. “I won’t be disappointed about something like this, but I hope there are no misunderstandings.”
“I’m not interested in a position like this. I’ll ask again. “A public ambassador…”
“Did you say you were aiming for a public ambassador?”
“exactly.”
Moyong-gun smiled.
“Didn’t I tell you before? A public ambassador is not someone you can mess with. “I told you that he was someone I wasn’t sure I could defeat even if I was fully prepared.”
“I’ll ask you again.”
The official’s eyes became cold.
“Are you aiming for a public ambassador?”
Moyong’s expression also hardened slightly.
“Why are you asking that all of a sudden?”
“I am asking for an answer, not a question.”
Even for Mr. Moyong, who knew the nature of the party, it was a difficult situation to ignore.
There were two pairs of eyes watching as if it was a conversation between two people. Even Yonghwajinin and Deungcheongyo were much more calculating and harsh people than expected.
A situation where you shouldn’t show weakness. Mo Yong-gun’s voice sank even lower.
“I think I respect you enough. In some ways, even more so than the two people here. “It’s not because I’m afraid of you, but because I know your personality.”
“So what is the answer?”
“But it will be troublesome if it keeps coming out like this. Please know that my patience has its limits.”
The official smiled coldly.
“Seeing as they keep changing their language, it seems like they are really aiming to become a public ambassador.”
“Look here, Dangaju.”
“I’ll be honest. It doesn’t matter what you do. Because neither you nor I are involved in each other’s business. However, if you try to use me as a ally rather than an ally, it’s a different story.”
For a moment, Prince Moyong frowned.
‘Parani?’
Yonghwajinin and Deungcheongyo looked at Moyonggun with puzzled eyes.
“What does this mean? group?”
Prince Moyong, who was looking at the party hall, suddenly asked.
“I don’t know what that means.”
The official took a handkerchief out of his pocket and threw it on the ground.
“What is this?”
“Don’t you know it when you see it? “It’s a handkerchief.”
“What the hell…”
“That handkerchief is covered with the secret listening poison of the original family.”
At that moment, Yonghwajinin and Deungcheongyo instinctively raised their internal strength.
But it wasn’t Moyong-gun. He just looked at the party hall with transparent eyes.
The official’s face distorted.
“As expected, the reaction is different. “Unlike the two people here, I didn’t increase my strength.”
“Dangaju.”
“I knew the characteristics of hearing reading. “If it weren’t for that, I couldn’t be so calm.”
That wasn’t it.
Prince Mo Yong knew the personality of Tang Gwan. Although he seemed reckless and rough at first glance, he was a man who knew how to see the time in his own way.
This is not the kind of greeting that should spread poison in a situation like this. That was the reason why Prince Moyong did not increase his internal strength.
However, for the official, Mo Yong-gun’s behavior served as an opportunity to confirm the suspicion that had been rising like fire.
“The reason I trusted you was because I thought you weren’t someone who could fool around. “He thinks too much, but I thought it was because he was suspicious and smart, not because he was timid.”
The official laughed bitterly.
At that murderous smile, not only Yonghwajin Deungcheongyo but even Moyonggun felt a shiver run down his spine.
“But I guess I got the wrong person. He is a person who even considers his allies to be mere chess… I can’t work with people like that. Isn’t that right?”
Moyong opened his mouth without realizing it, but then stopped.
‘….’
He looked at the complexions of Yonghwajinin and Teng Tianqiao.
Although he was trying to maintain a calm expression, what was hanging over him was doubt and anxiety.
It had to be that way. The two didn’t know what this conversation meant or why there was such a fuss.
However, I was able to sense that the conflict between the two was extremely deep. And the starting point of the conflict was from Prince Moyong.
‘That’s not good.’
The situation was so bad.
It would be better if he came to me when I was alone, but it is difficult to explain something in the presence of members of the same faction.
‘Besides, you’re a public ambassador.’
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes wavered.
‘How on earth did this person know that?’
The groundwork to worsen the public opinion of the public ambassador has just begun.
The reason he didn’t tell the authorities was because his reaction was too honest. You may be able to avoid the eyes of a public ambassador, but the party will have no choice but to catch you.
It was a decision made not because I did not trust the party officials, but because I knew exactly what his abilities were.
But how did the magistrate know this, and what is this handkerchief and what is the hearing poison?
“Dangaju.”
“….”
“I won’t talk too long.”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes became cold.
“Who heard about the public ambassador?”
The official’s cheek twitched.
“Do you finally admit it?”
“I’m asking who you heard it from.”
“Why do you think I should tell you that?”
Yonghwajin shouted.
“Dang family! Be careful what you say! No matter how angry I am, what can I do with the same Bonggong…!”
“You guys better be careful too. The laughter the author shows you is a completely made-up laugh. “It won’t be long before he sets a trap and uses you as a stepping stone.”
“what?!”
“Isn’t that right, Lord Moyong?”
Prince Moyong frowned.
“Be careful what you say.”
“What if I’m not careful? “Do you really want to scratch me with that dirty sword?”
The institution was responding more sharply than necessary.
Prince Moyong could not understand even as his anger was rising.
‘Isn’t this kind of person?’
Even if the issue of blood relatives was involved, he was not the kind of person who would be this aggressive.
It was not a guess but a certainty. No matter how much he was the head of the party, if he had gone this far, Prince Moyong would have kicked him out first.
I don’t know where I heard it, but the authorities were clearly overreacting.
‘I can’t help it.’
Whatever it was, Tang Gwan had already lost his mind.
In a situation where your emotions have completely changed, it is of no use to think about various reasons. In that case, it would be better to just take care of each person’s pride and make a truce.
Mo Yong said coldly.
“I don’t think we need to talk any more. “Please leave now.”
The official snorted.
“I think so too. “I won’t have to face you again in the future.”
“Before that, let me ask you one question.”
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes deepened.
“Did you meet that guy Yeon Ho-jeong?”
The corner of the official’s mouth rose.
“why? “Are you even afraid that I might break off ties with you and go to him?”
…We met.
‘Damn it.’
I guess Yeon Ho-jeong must have done something.
What was puzzling, however, was how Yeon Ho-jeong knew that he was aiming to become a public ambassador.
‘…no. The final blow may be Yeonhojeong, but it is a third party, not him, who created this situation.’
Zhuge Munho.
It was clear that Zhuge Liang, who caught the rumors going around like a ghost, had completed all the preliminary investigation. And he must have met with Yeon Ho-jeong and discussed this matter.
Yeon Ho-jeong was as talented in action as he was in his outstanding brain. He probably put it into action as soon as he heard about it from Zhuge Munhao.
However, I did not expect that normally he would come to the hotel and ask to find out in person.
Prince Moyong sighed inwardly.
‘I let my guard down.’
He has a supporter who is stronger than anyone else.
By turning an extreme crisis situation into a tremendous opportunity, we ended up joining hands with the strongest of the dark swords. I thought to myself that I should be nervous, but I unconsciously let down my guard because the ship behind me was so big.
‘If that hadn’t happened, we would have been more cautious in targeting public ambassadors. I knew that Zhuge Liang was very nervous and that Yan Haozheng’s attack was extremely unconventional.’
Moyong filed a complaint.
‘It’s not that the other person did well, it’s that I did poorly.’
It was a stupid mistake. It was something uncharacteristic of me.
As a result, I lost a good card. It was a painful mistake.
‘I gained the favor of Yangcheon and lost the ally of Danggwan… Still, if it’s a gain, it’s a gain.’
The important thing is that there was no need to lose.
At that moment, Mo Yong’s face became extremely cold.
“If you are thinking of breaking the alliance, there is nothing you can do. “Don’t regret it later.”
The official laughed and turned around.
There was no answer. With that, he ended all ties with Prince Moyong.
Prince Moyong, who was looking at the party’s back, sent out a warning message without anyone noticing.
[I don’t know what happened, but please tell me later when you feel better. I will come to you in person and hear the whole story.]
The hotel that was opening the door paused for a moment.
But that was all. He banged! I closed the door loudly and left.
Yonghwajinin hurriedly asked.
“What on earth is going on?”
“It’s no big deal.”
Mo Yong smiled bitterly.
“It’s just… it made me think that I should stay quiet for a while and build up my strength.”
“…?”
“Let’s cancel our future plans for now.”
Moyong closed his eyes.
‘…I guess I need to find my cool first.’
* * *
Zhuge Wenhu looked at Yan Haozheng with an admiring face.
“I thought there would be no more surprises for you. But that wasn’t it. “I really fell for your plan with both hands and feet.”
Yeon Ho-jeong shook his head.
“It’s nothing more than an altercation. “It’s a small detail that doesn’t even fit into a plan.”
“It is difficult to achieve maximum efficiency if you do not understand your opponent. “It’s really amazing.”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled silently.
Zhuge Wenhu tilted his head.
“But did you know it would turn out like this?”
“What do you mean?”
“The fact that the head of the Tang family stopped training with Lord Moyong can be seen as the best result, so to speak. “In the end, it was a good thing, but if the party leader’s trust in Prince Moyong had been deeper, it could have made the relationship between the two even stronger.”
“Of course.”
“There’s no way you didn’t know that. Did you expect that the two of you would split up?”
“Is that possible? “I am not God.”
“Huh? if?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Moyonggun’s attack this time was quite clumsy. “It was an uncharacteristic mistake.”
“yes.”
“However, I know that someone has discovered this incident due to the head of the party, so I will definitely be cautious. “I will remain quiet for the time being.”
“Then isn’t it more dangerous?”
“That’s right. And thanks to that caution, there are things you can notice.”
“hmm?”
This is the relationship with Yangcheon.
Yangcheon will definitely send some signal to Mo Yong-gun, who stays quiet. If you just watch it, you can deal a fatal blow to Prince Moyong.
“But it looks like there was a lot of Dang family stock piled up.”
Yeon Ho-jeong looked out the window.
“Perhaps the head of the party family also had deep thoughts of Prince Moyong. Actually, it must have been difficult to step back from that pride.”
“her!”
“Anyway, I won my first fight after returning. I’ll be like a dead rat for a while, so don’t worry too much.”
