Episode 140
Report of the family story
Zhuge Wen’s mood completely changed.
The neat bachelor had disappeared and the cynical counselor was raising his eyebrows.
He still looked at the calm expression and slowly lowered the corners of his mouth.
“You’re not embarrassed. Did you know?”
“I had a rough guess.”
“how?”
“Because people who are smart often look down on people who are not smart.”
Zhuge Wen denied it with a serious face.
“Not really. Just because you’re lacking in brains doesn’t mean you’re lacking in everything. “I’ve been in a bad mood lately for one reason or another, so my words and facial expressions have been a bit off.”
“You must be having a very hard time.”
The corners of his mouth rose again.
“I’m more annoyed than tired.”
“Is it because everyone is only looking at you?”
“As expected, I know you well.”
Zhuge Wen let out a small sigh and muttered as if complaining.
“One person cannot fill the entire canvas, but everyone is urging them to draw quickly. “Some people, including Lord Meng and Lord of Heavenly Dragon, can still communicate, but the majority of them just open their mouths and ask for food.”
“You’re asking me to draw not only the stem but also the twigs.”
“Haaa… … .”
“If I draw it to the best of my ability, they just complain and ask me to fix it like this or that.”
“Whoa… … .”
“Wow. It’s not like the soldier asked me to join the military at any time. Do they do whatever they want and instead of helping, they just do nothing? “You are a gentleman. If it were me, I would have defeated you several times already.”
The corner of Zhuge Wen’s mouth rose again at Jeong Gwang’s consolation.
“I know yeah. “Is it a sin to be born as a Zhuge clan?”
“No.”
“Isn’t being smart a sin?”
“Sure.”
“I don’t know why my family has to serve as the military of the Murim Alliance for generations. “It’s not like there aren’t talented people in the political faction.”
Jeong Gwang, who was nodding his head and making a remark, gave a counterargument.
“That’s not true. “There is no place like Jegal Se.”
“… … hmm. hmm. “That’s right.”
“Except for that, everything you said is correct. No, if he asks me to do something I don’t want to do, he gives me strength.”
“That’s right.”
“What are we going to do if we just load up the leader and a few people? “They are measuring the interests of their own monks and shouting that it is impossible.”
“yes!”
“Oh really. If that’s the case, then I don’t know why they created the alliance. “I don’t understand what they’re trying to do.”
“That’s it! “I do it anyway, but I’m not excited about it at all!”
Zhuge Wenhyung struck his knee with his palm and made a chuim sound.
It felt as if ten years of congestion had been lifted.
When would he have ever met another person with whom he could communicate like this?
On the contrary, Jeong Gwang had already met people like Zhuge Mun.
Not in this life, but in a past life.
‘As expected, it is more similar to a ghost than a demon brain.’
When he was Jincheonma, Jeong Gwang had two brains.
Ma Noe was an ordinary cultist who knew nothing about martial arts, but Jeong Gwang discovered his qualities and raised him, and in the case of Gwi Gok Ja, like the Jegal family of the Jeong Sect, he was a descendant of a noble family with great intelligence for generations.
In my experience, it was the latter that were easier to deal with.
‘You probably know very well that the only position you can reach is the military.’
Moorim is ultimately a place where power rules.
The position of counselor can only be second place at best.
A family that has experienced this truth for generations does not dream in vain.
Sometimes there were people who borrowed money, but there is no need to say anything about the result.
‘I would have built up my self-esteem and had a good fight. next… … ah. This is the Murim Alliance.’
In a past life, I would have shown the difference in power and made him submit, but in this life, I had to go differently.
‘Let’s try to increase the sense of homogeneity.’
There is no better way to do that than to criticize someone you both dislike.
You’re smart, so you’ll understand.
“and. I didn’t even want to say this… … No. I want to give you a lot. “The Namgung family is the biggest problem.”
“I think so too.”
“Namgung Segaju Namgunghwain Daehyup. “Shouldn’t it be called Dark Silbangeom, not Changcheonilgeom?”
Zhuge Wen frowned.
“Isn’t it too explicit?”
Jeong Gwang grinned.
“At this point, you and I feel the same way.”
“I know the intention. “But it’s still too bad.”
Zhuge Wenhyeong thought for a moment, then snapped his fingers and raised the corners of his mouth.
“How about the black heartless sword?”
“also. “You are different because you are an actor.”

The two people chewed Namgung Hwain eagerly.
As time passed, King Namgung came to control everything, and those who sympathized with him were not left out.
Zhuge Wen raised one corner of his mouth and poured out words, then raised one hand.
“This is enough. Now that we’ve clearly told each other what the problem is, let’s talk about a solution. End the fight quickly for the world. For the sake of the future, I change the Sima Lianju into someone who is a little better. To do this, you attack the branches of Sima Lian and bring out the Lord Sima Lian. “Is this thought unchanged?”
“yes.”
“Are you sure you can do that?”
“It will be easier if the soldier is with us.”
Zhuge Wen laughed.
It was not cynicism, but joyful laughter.
‘You’re not saying you’re not confident.’
If someone else had said that, I would have accepted it as absurd, but when Jeong Gwang said it, I didn’t feel like it.
It wasn’t because Jeong Gwang had the power to do that.
This was because it was impossible to estimate the level of concentration.
‘It’s something that can’t happen at such a young age, but… … .’
There are often things in the world that cannot be understood through common sense.
That’s what Jeong Gwang has done so far.
Because Zhuge Wen was more intelligent than anyone else, he was able to accept Jeong Gwang’s skills.
“Look, Jinokryong. If you had said you would do it alone, I wouldn’t have believed you, no matter how much it was you. As you said, use the power of Meng and the True Sect to the fullest.”
“I will use it properly, soldier.”
“of course. Phew. “It’s a pity that I just let Shaolin go when he came to visit.”
He was referring to Wen Hong and his party who had escorted the Simalian warriors and left immediately after giving testimony to the elders.
“It can’t be helped. “Other sects and families felt uncomfortable with Shaolin taking an active part in Kangho’s affairs.”
“They’re like little people. But now that Shaolin has taken the first step, the second step will be easier. Wow. The more I think about it, the more jealous I feel. “The leader deserves a public apology from Ga-gyun.”
This was done by Peng Su-gwan to speed up the fight and to sound an alarm to the small members of the political faction.
Could it be possible that Sima Lianju would do something like that to Ga Gyun?
It was clear that it would cause trouble here and there to change the topic and strengthen internal solidarity.
The political factions scattered in the central plains will suffer little by little.
This would happen because the Murim Lord and Sima Lianju clearly knew each other’s intentions, but their understanding coincided.
“How are you going to deal with Song Hoon?”
“I can’t torture, and even if I did, I wouldn’t be obedient. It has many uses, so I’m planning to take a long-term view. “What do you think?”
“Same as the soldier.”
“ha ha ha. It’s easy to talk to. “Then let’s get to work.”
After making a big fuss, Zhuge Munhyung overlapped Jeong Gwang’s painting with his own.
The two paintings, which had some differences, were refined little by little by the two people and reborn as one painting.
After checking the picture in his head a few more times, Zhuge Wen smiled with satisfaction.
“It’s nice not to draw unnecessary twigs. “You, who will run yourself, should draw and act in accordance with the time, geography, and human harmony, and let us know.”
“yes. “Soldier too.”
“haha. “This is going to get pretty busy.”
“Iknow, right.”
“ah. But here’s the thing.”
Zhuge Wen asked as he passed by.
“Do you want to stand above everyone in the future?”
It was a sudden remark, but Jeong Gwang’s complexion was the same.
“no.”
“… … then?”
“I’m trying to live my life doing whatever I want.”
“… … “It means that I will reign alone but not rule.”
“yes?”
“I understand roughly. “I won’t be bored in my later years.”
Jeong Gwang asked with his eyes what he was talking about, but Zhuge Mun was already walking away.
He answered in his mind.
‘I’m saying it looks like you’ll be very busy just watching your movements.’
* * *
The two met with Peng Shu-gwan and Heo-cheong and showed them the picture they had created together.
Peng Su-gwan blinked and asked.
“Military. “There are no details. What happened?”
“Jin Okryong and I will draw it according to the situation.”
“How are you trying to communicate? carrier pigeon? Or in person?”
“That’s the only way.”
“Hmm. There will be quite a delay… … Of course, the situation will change in the meantime. “Is there any problem?”
Zhuge Wen replied with a smile on his innocent face.
“It’s the fastest way, so there’s nothing we can do. Since the stem is shared, the directions of the branches can be drawn similarly. You don’t have to worry too much. Isn’t that right, Jinokryong?”
“Sure.”
As a penman, I had no choice but to agree.
What can he say when two of the smartest people he knows say that?
The same was true for Heo Cheong.
“Lord. Should we gather the elders together?”
“Sure.”
Peng Su-gwan stood up from his chair.
He moved his neck left and right, making a crunching sound, and muttered with a scary expression on his face.
“I guess I’ll have to give it a try.”
It was just as he thought.
The elders were vehemently opposed.
Not only Namgungse’s power, but also others did the same.
“This is ridiculous! “There is a limit to how greedy you can get for the ball. What kind of nonsense is this!”
“You selected a small number of people from the youth distribution to run a branch of the Sima Reun. “It’s too dangerous!”
The water pipe also responded strongly.
“You’re greedy for the ball! Do not insult Jin Ok-ryong, who stepped up for the sake of the alliance! Look, isn’t that right?”
Jeong Gwang shrugged his shoulders.
“Rather than a cooperative… … .”
“yes! representation! “Isn’t it for the greater good!”
Oops, a Peng Su-gwan quickly shouted and stopped Jeong Gwang from speaking, but Namgung Shin-geon stepped forward and said, ‘It’s right.’
It was because they judged that it would be easier to deal with Jeong Gwang rather than an experienced Peng Su-gwan.
“I will ask the person concerned, not the leader. “Jin Yuryong, why do you want to do such an unreasonable thing?”
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Jeong Gwang.
Jeong Gwang answered as if it was no big deal.
“No one came forward.”
“Your life is yours, so act like that. “Why are they attracting other late-stage indices as well?”
“Because they are the only ones who will come forward. Would you like to join us?”
“… … “We can’t go out carelessly.”
“Or, you could call the experts of each sect who have returned to their home base.”
“… … Do you think they are playing? “It’s about protecting the midfield.”
Jeong Gwang’s voice gained strength.
“I’m saying that because everyone is busy. We all know that nothing good will come of just dragging on like this. “There are people who are having a hard time because of fights between warriors.”
“… … Still, it’s too dangerous. If you want to send it, you have to send the right amount of power.”
“Then are you going to send the Celestial Dragons? If something big happens, it’s the first force that has to run. However, it makes no sense to send the Earth Dragon. “The elders will be against it out of concern for the young disciple of the recluse.”
“… … .”
“Only those who allow it and who wish to do so will participate in this work. “Can’t I do this?”
Namgung Shingeon, who had been glaring at Jeong Gwang for a while, asked in a stern tone.
“How will you take responsibility if something goes wrong?”
“The Lord will take responsibility.”
“… … “What?”
“Is that right, Lord?”
Peng Su-gwan narrowed his eyes.
Of course, I was planning on taking responsibility, but when I heard those words from Jeong Gwang, I felt uneasy for some reason.
“Lord, is it true?”
Since Namgung Shingeon urged him to do so, he had no choice but to answer.
“Of course.”
“How will you take responsibility?”
“I will do whatever you want!”
Jeong Gwang organized the situation.
“That’s enough now, right? “Then let’s proceed.”
For a while, there were people who raised various issues, but they could not destroy Jeong Gwang’s logic.
Besides, they won’t have to suffer any losses. If something goes wrong, isn’t this an opportunity to pull down the sump pipe?
Since he expressed his opposition to some extent, he also relieved himself of moral responsibility. There is no need to just oppose it.
Still, as some people continued to talk, Jeong Gwang took out his famous sword and swung it.
“I guess I wasn’t able to explain it properly because I’m not good at speaking. “I will bring Zhao over and tell him why this should be so.”
The elders all trembled.
And in the end, he gave a murderous look to those who were hanging around with the concentrate in their mouths.
“ah. I would like to ask for some financial support. I feel like I have a lot to write about one way or another. There is an amount that Zhao calculated with the priest… … .”
In the end, the plan developed by Zheng Guang and Zhuge Wenheng was approved by the Senate.
With satisfactory money.
‘I need to collect it quickly.’
Jeong Gwang gathered all those who were included in the plan in one place.
Yu Jeong-pung, Eon Eui-jin, Dang O-gun, Dang Ye-ji, Gong Yu, and even Peng Kang-hwi who had just arrived at the Murim Alliance.
Although he was young, he had a brilliant military power, including five of the Guryongsabongs and the Sogaju of the Sacheondang family.
Jeong Gwang made eye contact with each person one by one and told them his plan.
Yu Jeongpung, who had been listening quietly, asked as soon as he finished speaking.
“cadet. “It seems very dangerous. What do you think?”
“hmm. If you’re unlucky, you might die. “It’s okay if you miss out, so only those who are willing to do so can get permission from the monk.”
Yoo Jeong-pung laughed and grumbled.
“Wow. The younger brother ignores his older brother too much. What is the banner of this room? It is a matter of righteousness. Even the young children of the headquarters are scattered across the central plains, risking their lives to gather information. “Did you really think I was going to fall in?”
Dang-o-gun and Dang Ye-ji followed.
“Brother Yu is right. Besides, my father asked me to do this before he left for his hometown.”
“He said not to refuse Jinokryong’s request.”
Eon Ui-jin also nodded.
“As a member of the right faction, if I don’t practice cooperation, how can I live with my face upright? Even if my family is against it, I will definitely go.”
Paeng Kang-hwi shrugged his shoulders and jokingly agreed, even though he must have been tired from the long journey.
“I have no choice because my father sent me by force.”
Gongwoo smiled as he became class president.
The smile spread across everyone’s faces.
match. match.
Jeong Gwang clapped his hands to attract attention and then spoke.
“ruler. ruler. Then come quickly. “I have a lot of work to do.”
The young heroes of the political faction nodded in unison and then dispersed.
Their steps were filled with great strength.
“Priests. Jao. “We prepare too.”
“Yes, death penalty.”
“I understand, Jinokryong.”
Baek Seung-moo and Zhao went into their respective rooms and started taking out the things they had packed in advance.
Meanwhile, Jang-i, who had been called by Jeong-gwang and was standing to one side, was confused.
‘Why did you call me?’
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t figure out why I was here or if it was okay to be there.
At that time, Jeong Gwang looked at him and asked.
“Aren’t you going to tell your mother, Jang Sohyeop?”
“omg! “Are you trying to take me too?”
“yes. why?”
Why?
That was exactly what Jang wanted to ask.
‘… … Why me, a wastewater like me… … ?’
