Episode 984.
When I put it down, I saw the sky (1)
“How do you feel?”
“great.”
“Hehe, I’m glad.”
The public ambassador smiled.
“I drink a lot of tea, but I don’t know how to make good tea because I’m just a person who thinks that boiling wild grass tastes good when I drink it.”
“For that matter, it smells really good.”
“It was my first time seeing a friend in a long time, so I learned it directly from the soldier.”
“I thought it tasted somewhat similar to military tea. “It’s not a skill you can learn after seeing it a few times, but you’re amazing.”
“Hehe, Geumchil like that makes Taengjung, who already lacks self-discipline, even more proud.”
“Isn’t the world too beautiful to live so cautiously that honest words are interpreted with pride?”
“exactly?”
“That’s right.”
Prince Moyong put down his teacup and looked around Maengjujeon.
It is spacious and grand, but has no other decorations.
It seemed like the frugality of Gong Daesa could be seen just by looking at Maeng Ju-jeon. However, Prince Moyong did not simply feel frugal in the Battle of Maengju.
The generosity of being able to vacate your seat at any time.
There was a strong impression that, as the first leader, he only paved the way and left a lot of things aside for the true leader.
“It’s still the same.”
“hmm?”
“You are still so calm. Still, isn’t it too bleak for the leader of the world’s greatest Murim alliance?”
The public ambassador burst into laughter.
“Life isn’t about dressing just enough to cover your body and eating enough to satisfy your hunger.”
“This is difficult to agree with.”
“Hehehe.”
“Even so, it must be different for the Murim Lord. The position of leader is vacant. “Isn’t this place too empty to be called Maengjujeon?”
Mr. Moyong, who openly said that he was poor, and the public ambassador, who did not feel offended at all after hearing those words, were great people in many ways.
“Since you are such a poor person, I don’t think I will be able to stay in this position for long.”
Moyong-gun chuckled.
“Then come down and hand it over to me.”
He was good at talking about sensitive topics.
The public ambassador burst into laughter.
“The current head of the Moyong family would be much better than Binseung.”
“Was it different before?”
“Before, he would have been worse than a ten-year-old who had never swung a sword before.”
It was a pretty spicy word.
Their conversation was like that. Although he seemed comfortable and friendly, he sometimes said something so strong and sharp that the listener was surprised.
But the two actually seemed extremely used to such conversations. In fact, even though this is their first time having such a provocative conversation, they are not hurt at all by each other’s words.
At this point, the spicy words of the two people had to be seen as sharply packaged sincerity.
The two people understood each other through those sharply packaged words, and at the same time conveyed their unashamed sincerity to the other person.
Moyong-gun finished his tea and said.
“I never thought the day would come when I would have this conversation with the ambassador.”
“The same goes for Binseung.”
“This conversation is quite interesting, but if it goes on for a long time, the people who are asking to meet will be upset. So, let’s get to the point.”
“Binseung is ready at any time.”
“Before that, please look at this first.”
Prince Mo Yong took out several neatly folded documents from his arms and handed them to Ambassador Gong.
The Ambassador’s eyes immediately lit up as he opened the document and read it.
Moyong-gun smiled.
“The Ambassador knew how to make that kind of expression.”
“That’s why I feel burdened by this position. “It seems like a place to send Taengjung, who has already strayed from Buddhism, into the abyss.”
“Thanks to you, the members’ minds are at ease, so even if you don’t do anything, it’s worth being there.”
These were not empty words. Mr. Moyong says those words with sincerity.
The public ambassador sighed.
“First of all, thank you for your hard work.”
“yes. “There were a lot.”
As was his habit, Moyong lifted the teacup and then put it down again. Because the glass is already empty.
Ambassador Gong Gong stared at the document in silence for a moment.
How long has it been?
“If you say that, most of the members of the Sejak search unit are members of the Mukryongbu.”
“That’s right.”
Prince Mo Yong looked at Ambassador Gong with puzzled eyes.
“Have you not already received the report?”
In the past, ahead of Yeonhojeong’s expedition, Prince Moyong personally visited Yangcheon and asked him to attach troops.
At that time, we also talked about the Murim Maeng Sejak case, and since there was an expert in locating Sejak, we should attach useful people and train them to be experts in locating them in a short but quick manner.
Yang Cheon allowed it, and Mo Yong-gun got to work right away.
Two months later.
In just two months, the 50 or so members of the unit became searchers with considerable knowledge.
This was not only because the instructor’s ability was outstanding, but also because the talents of the people selected by Yangcheon were truly outstanding.
The unit members sent to the instructor were all informants skilled in assassination. As people who handle information rather than simple secretaries, they have a quick mind, sharp eyes, and know how to hide themselves well.
Of course, I had to learn quickly. Although he is not at the level of a master, he has shown enough proficiency that there will be no problem if he is put into practice right away.
Prince Moyong sent everything to the public ambassador, including the progress and the personality, age, gender, and habits of each member of the unit. This was possible because Yangcheon tolerated it.
However, when I asked him once again whether he was from the Mukryongbu, I was just surprised.
“Of course Binseung knows. “I just wanted to check one more time.”
It’s confirmation and there’s nothing to do or sleep. The public ambassador was not stupid enough to ask again what he already knew.
Mo Yong-gun’s eyes deepened.
“Something is wrong.”
“I wouldn’t say it’s a problem, but… well, if it were a problem, it could be a problem.”
“What’s the problem?”
“As you probably know, the head of the Moyong family.”
Ambassador Gong said while looking around Meng Jujeon.
“There are countless people in the Murim Alliance. Even a few months ago, the Geomje and Doje seniors came in free of charge.”
“You’re welcome.”
“exactly. Thank goodness. “The giants who had been living in seclusion came directly to lend their strength, so it can be said that this is the Hongbok of Wulin.”
“But what’s the problem? Is it possible that those old people do not recognize the ambassador’s authority?”
Prince Moyong called the two men old without hesitation.
The public ambassador shook his head.
“It could be so. Since they are elders and free officials, they should be treated well, but they are also lower than the leader. “Isn’t that why you two were worried about joining the group?”
It probably means that once you come in, you will absolutely obey the leader’s orders.
“What’s the problem if you do it?”
“There are many people within the alliance who are dissatisfied with the Black Island.”
Mo Yong nodded his head.
“Of course it is.”
Black and white joined hands for peace, but the two groups lived as bitter enemies for hundreds of years. Of course, such public opinion is bound to arise.
Rather, such public opinion was absolutely necessary. That way, the leadership will try to avoid making as many mistakes as possible.
“However, it will be a problem if such people shake their power and even cause a civil war.”
“….”
“Is it really that bad?”
The public ambassador shook his head.
“It’s not that bad, but I think we’re heading in that direction.”
Prince Moyong frowned.
“There’s no way they wouldn’t have done anything to make it come out that way. What happened?”
“There have been too many incidents to explain what happened so far. Don’t you know, too? “It is not at all easy to run such a large group.”
I wasn’t saying this as an excuse.
The Murim Alliance has grown into a large group that can be called a small nation.
However, everyone who belongs to that group is a full-blooded martial artist. These are people who are better at resolving conflicts by stabbing than by talking in vulgar language.
Of course, since it is a Baekdo political faction, there are not many such incidents, but it is impossible to control every single one.
Moreover, the Murim League was not structured in such a way that the leader had absolute power like the Mukryongbu. The leader’s authority is powerful, but in the first place, various organizations come together to share opinions and proceed with work, so if he is oppressed by force, a backlash will erupt.
I couldn’t help but feel a headache in many ways.
“If such people move systematically and shake up the government, we can arrest them all and hold them accountable, even if it may be harsh. “But they are walking a fine line and stoking public opinion.”
“Why can’t we do that now?”
“hmm?”
“Why can’t they be arrested and charged right away?”
The public ambassador sighed.
“Their anger is not a sin, is it?”
“If you are undermining the strength of the organization because of that anger, it is a sin.”
“There is not enough justification.”
“It is up to you to create a cause. And now we have an absolute cause.”
A terrifying lightning flashed in Mo Yong’s eyes.
“This is war time.”
“….”
“Just because nothing happened right away and the sun rose this morning doesn’t mean we’re at war? “If we look at each of these people one by one, the cohesion of the Murim Alliance, which was somehow well-coordinated, will collapse.”
“I think so too.”
I think so, but the justification for an exhibition may be ambiguous.
Mo Yong-gun understood the public ambassador. Although he was angry and spoke strongly, honestly, even he himself would not have tried to crush him with force.
Because it is obvious that only internal division will occur.
Still, I couldn’t help but feel angry.
“They are empty-headed.”
A clear expression of anger appeared on Mo Yong-gun’s face.
“If I had even thought about how the current peace was created and how many people sacrificed behind the scenes, I wouldn’t have dared to do something so outrageous.”
The ambassador’s eyes slightly wavered.
Prince Moyong spoke of his sacrifice. In a way, he was saying that the current peace is maintained thanks to the sacrifices of people who have nothing to do with him.
‘It’s really changed a lot.’
Originally, Prince Moyong was a smart and sharp person. However, the problem was that he only used his eyes and brain for his own desires.
However, the current Mo Yong-gun, who realized his limitations and turned his eyes toward the world, ‘understood’ more clearly than anyone else how this world was built.
The personality is the same. However, once you let go of your greed and watch the world and understand that you have been ignoring it, that alone can change a person so much.
“I understand what the Ambassador is thinking. “Did the military just sit back and watch this?”
The public ambassador smiled bitterly.
“The military actually said things are okay now.”
“…?”
“They told me to wait a little while. “It seems like there is a way, but Binseung can’t even imagine what that way is.”
“method?”
Moyong’s frowning face gradually turned more serious.
“It’s a method… I left it there on purpose? Even though you know how dangerous it can be?”
The public ambassador asked quietly.
“Do you know what the soldier is thinking?”
“I do not know. “You won’t know unless you talk to them directly.”
“Hmm.”
“Mr. Ambassador, since you are the leader, if you ask him directly, you will spit out everything. How could you stay silent without asking?”
“Hehe, I said there is a way, so I just believe it. “If he was going to tell me, he would have told me sooner.”
I can’t tell if it’s comfort or absolute trust.
Mo Yong-gun chuckled.
“If that fox-like man is capable, he must have his own plan.”
“haha.”
“Anyway, it became ambiguous. Those guys are running rampant… so it’s not right to send in the Sejak unit right away…”
That was then.
“Lord!”
“What’s going on?”
“The two units of the leader candidates and Changryong Daeryong, who headed to Shanxi, have returned!”
“Oh really?”
“And…”
“Hmm?”
“So Buju of the Ink Dragon Department also came back together.”
