Episode 115. Things will return to the right path (3)
The lawmaker who ran in front of Jeong Hui-ji bowed his head.
“I think I can take a breather from this.”
“Representative Choi.”
“Yes, my lord.”
“Please take good care of my father. I will definitely save him with the Cheongmyeongwan.”
Jeong Hui-ji patted the congressman on the shoulder.
Just looking at that appearance, it seemed like he was really worried about his family.
However, Lee Mu-myeong, who had been in Hanam Jeongga for a long time, knew that this appearance was pretense.
Jeong Hui-ji’s ambition was so great that there was no one in Hanam who did not know him, from his bodyguards to his servants.
It was after the congressman had entered that an hour had passed.
“Oh, oh, oh!”
A panicked congressman’s cry could be heard from inside.
After a moment to hold my breath, the congressman came running out.
The contemplative congressman opened his eyes wide and said.
“The master is in danger!”
“What? What happened?”
“Oh, it seems like there’s poison in the Cheongmyeong-hwan.”
Imoo-myeong narrowed his eyes at their conversation.
It was clear that he had fallen into Jeong Hui-ji’s trap.
The Qingminghuan he had brought was a fake. However, he knew that there was no poison in it.
The chest containing the real Cheongmyeong-hwan given by Madam Jeonghwa was taken by Hanbin.
Imoo-myeong stared at Jeong Hwi-ji quietly.
The corners of his lips were slightly dancing compared to his embarrassed expression.
Imoo-myeong took a deep breath and said.
“What do you mean? How can there be poison in Cheongmyeong-hwan?”
“I’m sorry, Lord Sa. I will have to follow the rules of the Hanam Jeongga.”
Jeong Hui-ji extended his hand.
His index finger pressed the Jianjing point on Imoo-myeong’s shoulder.
Pick!
For a moment, Imoo-myeong couldn’t move his upper body.
The demon’s blood has been subdued.
Seolhwa, who was next to Imoo-myeong, had her eyes wide open and looked as if she was about to cry.
It was the sight of a child so surprised that he couldn’t even cry.
Even in this absurd situation, Imoo-myeong couldn’t help but laugh.
Others may have been fooled, but Seol-hwa’s appearance was clearly an act.
Even at this moment, he was carrying out his mission without panicking.
But I couldn’t stop my heart from pounding.
Anyway, it was impossible to maintain composure since I was trapped.
At that moment, Jeong Hui-ji shouted.
“Arrest the suspect! Instead, treat him respectfully.”
At the command similar to the abstract, the guards guarding the residence of the master jumped out.
They captured Imoo-myeong and Seol-hwa in an instant.
Imoo-myeong was dragged to the brain prison in the basement of Hanamjeongga along with the tightly bound Seol-hwa.
It was strangely enough after he was tied up that Imoo-myeong’s heart, which had been beating rapidly, calmed down.
I was out of my mind so I couldn’t check, but it was Jo Ho who tied him up.
It was Sim Mi-ho who tied up Seol-hwa.
In some ways, it was fortunate that the demon was subdued.
If the demon had not been subdued, there would have definitely been a change in expression.
Thud thud.
As he walked down the hallway of the brain prison, Joho stopped in the room at the end.
Then he opened the iron bars with the key.
As soon as the iron bars of the brain prison opened, Jo Ho and Sim Mi Ho pushed Lee Mu Myung and Seol Hwa in without mercy.
dump.
Imoo-myeong and Seol-hwa rolled on the floor of the prison cell because they had been pushed so hard.
Jeong Hui-ji’s subordinate, who was watching the scene, said.
“Haha, I think our lord told us to be gentle with him earlier.”
“It was a bit too gentle for a criminal.”
When Sim Mi-ho answered with a win, Jeong Hui-ji’s subordinate smiled.
“As expected, you guys are good at listening to others. There are only a few days left, so just endure it a little. I’ll give you enough money to live off of for the rest of your life.”
“Jeonmyeong!”
Sim Mi-ho bent her back excessively and took the lottery.
To anyone who saw it, it looked like he had offered his liver to Hanam Jeongga.
Sim Mi-ho and Jo Ho disappeared without even giving Lee Mu-myeong and Seol-hwa a glance.
Lee Moo-myung was once again surprised by the heartless acting of Sim Mi-ho and Jo Ho.
For a moment, I was under the illusion that their actions might be sincere.
At that time, Seolhwa wrote something in front of Imoo-myeong with a wooden stick that had fallen nearby.
It seemed like they wanted to communicate in writing so that the sound wouldn’t leak out.
Sweep.
The text written by Seolhwa has been completed.
-Sir, are you okay?
Imoo-myeong, who was about to answer, realized that Ma-hyeol and Ah-hyeol were both suppressed at the same time.
While Imoo-myeong was just blankly staring, Seol-hwa erased the existing writing and started writing again.
Sweep.
-I’ll release the demon blood, so move while watching the situation.
After finishing speaking, Seolhwa used her index finger to release Imoo-myeong’s acupuncture needle.
Pick!
Only then was Imoo-myeong able to move.
At that time, a question arose in Imoo-myeong’s mind.
It was a story of being tied up, but not being hit by a needle.
But how were you able to write?
When I turned my head, I saw the rope neatly arranged and lying next to me.
There was one more question added to that.
Jeong Hwi-ji only had acupuncture done on his upper body.
In some ways, it is an advanced technique.
In that case, the story was that the level of the tale was at least the highest level.
At that moment, Imoo-myeong got goosebumps.
After giving my heart to Hanbin, I decided to stay in Cheonsujang for a limited time, but I didn’t know that there would be so many monsters swarming around.
Suddenly, I remembered the incident that happened between Hanbin and Zanhyeolma Do a few days ago that Hanbin had told me about.
Imoo-myeong thought that wasn’t true.
Even though I subdued him, I didn’t think I did it alone.
Last time we crossed swords, I thought I knew all of Hanbin’s skills… … .
‘Didn’t you look inside it?’
Imoo-myeong quietly closed his eyes.
* * *
At the same time, in the reception room of Hanam Jeongga.
There were two men sitting in front of Jeong Hwi-ji.
They were none other than the masters of the Jeomchang and Kunlun factions who had come as guests to Hanamjeongga.
The master of the Jeomchang school was Jeong Chang-myeong, and the master of the Kunlun school was Lee Jin-myeong.
The first to speak was Jeong Hwi-ji.
“Something unpleasant has just happened within the Hanam political circle.”
“What’s going on?”
When Jeong Chang-myeong of Jeomchangpa asked, Jeong Hui-ji continued speaking in a low voice.
“Nothing else, the Cheongmyeonghwan arrived today.”
“Oh, then the Lord will shake off his illness and rise again.”
“I had that hope too, but something unspeakable happened.”
“There are things I can’t say… … .”
“There is nothing I cannot tell you two. The Yeongdan that I gave him, thinking it was Cheongmyeonghwan, was actually poison. Thanks to that, my father is now in a state of unconsciousness.”
“Heh heh.”
“The problem is the aftermath. The one who took the lead in stealing the Qingminghuan and putting poison in its place was the Sa Gongja of the Habuk Peng family.”
“hmm.”
Jeong Chang-myeong of Jeomchangpa stroked his beard.
If it was the four princes of Habukpengga, it was the evil guy I saw a while ago.
I still vividly remember trying to press the button with distribution but getting hit instead.
The time that Jeong Chang-myeong spent in the martial arts world was several decades.
There was no way I didn’t know the current situation.
Jeong Chang-myeong’s hand, which had been stroking his beard, stopped and his mouth opened.
“What would you like me to do for you?”
“It seems like my older brother was involved in this.”
“Huh, the Archduke?”
Jeong Chang-myeong pretended not to know and stroked his beard again.
At that sight, Jeong Hui-ji continued speaking.
“My father said that when he wakes up, he will reorganize the succession plan. That’s what I was afraid of.”
“… … .”
Jeong Chang-myeong nodded without saying anything.
Instead, Jinmyeong Lee of Kunlun, who was listening to the conversation from the side, spoke instead.
“Then, can we become witnesses in the Hanam Jeongga trial representing the Justice Alliance?”
“Yes, that’s right. This matter must not be leaked yet. Until my brother, who went out under the pretext of saving the Great Hwandan, returns. I heard he will return in a few days with no results. Then you can step forward.”
“Yes, that’s fine. But, we have little reason to get involved in a family feud… … .”
As Lee Jin-myeong trailed off, Jeong Hwi-ja handed him two boxes.
Swish.
Two flat boxes were placed in front of Jeong Chang-myeong and Lee Jin-myeong.
Jeong Chang-myeong turned his head away, looking slightly disappointed at the size of the box.
Lee Jin-myeong also slightly avoided eye contact.
Jeong Hui-ji, who smiled brightly at their appearance, got up with a slight smile on her lips.
Then he bowed his head and grabbed the box placed in front of Lee Jin-myeong and Jeong Chang-myeong.
When I opened it gently, the gold inside the box was revealed.
Jeong Chang-myeong, a senior member of the Jeomchangpa, let out a faint sigh.
“Heh heh.”
The same was true of Kunlun’s great disciple, Li Jinming.
“It’s not silver, it’s gold… … I don’t know what to do with myself.”
After finishing speaking, Lee Jin-myeong quickly pulled the box over and placed it on his lap.

Two days later, the brain prison of Hanamjeongga.
Imoo-myeong’s expression was changing from moment to moment.
At first, I felt relieved when I saw Sim Mi-ho and Jo Ho, but strangely, I started to feel more and more uneasy.
The problem was that Simmiho and Joho never visited again after that.
What on earth is happening out there?
I glanced to the side and saw Seolhwa sitting in meditation with her eyes closed.
In this situation, you are exercising.
That was when.
I heard a door opening in the distance.
CLANG!
At that sound, Seolhwa quickly released her meditation and tied herself up with the rope she had arranged next to her.
No matter how you look at it, the skill is close to being magical.
I thought the only people who could do something like that were the street performers.
No matter how much he thought about it, Imoo-myeong couldn’t figure out Seol-hwa’s true identity.
A low-class street performance group from the Hwajeonmin?
It was Imoo-myeong who was becoming more and more like Jang Ja-myeong.
That was when.
Jeong Hui-ji’s subordinate stood in front of the iron bars of the brain prison with a bitter smile on his face.
“Both of you, stand up!”
Imoo-myeong narrowed his eyes at his actions.
The other party probably knows him as the Four Princes of Habukpengga, but he treats them like this?
It was a sure sign that he was going to kill.
When Imoo-myeong shot, Jeong Hui-ji’s subordinate said.
“Let me give you just one piece of advice as a gift.”
“… … .”
“Now the family trial will be held. At that time, unconditionally nod to the words of our lord. If you do, your life will be spared.”
“… … .”
As Imoo-myeong looked on without saying anything, Jeong Hwi-ji’s subordinate spoke.
“Oh, the bleeding hasn’t gone away yet. Anyway, it’s good to keep that in mind.”
That was when.
The story goes like this.
“Are you going to spare me too, sir?”
“Yes, since you didn’t get a blood test, I guess you can understand. You too. If you say yes unconditionally, you will be able to return home in good health. I’ll be back later.”
With those words, Jeong Hui-ji’s subordinate left the brain prison.
As he left, Seolhwa snickered and said:
“Phew, this life ends today. Right, sir?”
Compared to the smiling Seol-hwa, Imoo-myeong’s face was frozen like stone.
“I guess I’m worried. If things have progressed to this point, I should hear some news from outside, but I’m still a little uneasy seeing Jeong Hwi-ji and his men still setting things up.”
“Sir, you don’t believe in Confucius?”
“I have to believe it. But I can’t help but feel uneasy because I can’t even see Confucius, whom I believe in. In fact, I’m also worried about the head of the Hanam Jeongga family.”
“Since Confucius started first, he must have taken care of everything.”
Seolhwa looked at Imoo-myeong with a smiling face.
Imoo-myeong was dumbfounded by Seol-hwa’s appearance.
No matter how much you trust Hanbin, how can you be so calm when he’s about to be beheaded?
Looking at the current situation, it was clear that the condition of the household had worsened.
Even the grand prince of Hanam Jeongga is absent.
Can we really turn this crisis around?
No matter how much I thought about it, Imoo-myeong thought it was impossible.
That was when.
Footsteps were heard from afar.
Thud thud!
