Episode 267. The Hidden Power of Habukpengga (1)
There was only one reason why Peng Hyuk-bin had such an awkward expression.
This was because the boat crossing the Jangha River was cut off.
There are plenty of small boats for people to ride, but it is said that a large boat that can carry carts will not arrive until a week later.
“Hmm, what should I do? A week… … .”
He crossed his arms and looked across the river.
However, there was no sharp number.
There was no way to build a ship here, nor was there any ability to make a ship that had already sailed return.
Peng Heuk-bin looked back at the path he had come from.
The distance to the nearest town from Naruto is half a day.
Most people settle for accommodation in nearby villages and stop by here at Naruto.
Those who are unable to return to the village have no choice but to use the inn here.
The merchants here exploit the minds of these people.
If you have no choice but to stay at a guest house for a day or two, even if it is a little expensive and dirty, you can just use it.
When Peng Heok-bin was contemplating whether he should return to the village or stay at one of the inns there.
Someone was loitering around him, glancing at him from time to time as if watching him.
Peng Hyuk-bin was quite concerned about him hovering around.
He couldn’t catch them and ask them why they were loitering around him, because his opponent was a commoner who didn’t know martial arts.
That was when.
The wanderer gradually approached Peng Hyuk-bin.
Peng Hyuk-bin, who was already nervous, quickly turned his head.
The person whose eyes met mine was neatly dressed and had a ribbon tied tightly around his head, so it was clear that he had a mole somewhere.
Only then did Peng Hyuk-bin feel relieved.
This is because the other party thought that he approached them to solicit customers.
Peng Hyuk-bin ignored Jeom So-yi and tried to return to where his group was.
At that moment, Jeomsoi approached cautiously.
Before he could even speak, Peng Hyuk-bin spoke.
“I’ll be back in the village soon, so don’t waste your time.”
“Your Majesty, why are you going such a long way? Just tie me up and go to the place I have prepared for you.”
“Even if you say so, you’re still going to do it. If you’re trying to frame us as newcomers to the world of martial arts, then you should’ve given up early.”
“No, aren’t you the Grand Duke of Habukpengga?”
“Huh, how do you know that?”
“Isn’t there a flag over there?”
Jeomsoi pointed to the back with his finger. There, the flag of the Habuk Peng family was planted on the carriage.
Peng Hyuk-bin nodded as if he agreed.
That too for a moment, Peng Heuk-bin was not so easy.
He looked at Jeomsoi with eyes full of suspicion.
“It’s easy to know that you’re the Habuk Pengga. But how did you know that I’m the Grand Prince of Habuk Pengga? What’s your true identity?”
“… … .”
“Are you from Haomen?”
“… … .”
Jeomsoi stepped back without saying a word.
It wasn’t that I had nothing to say in response to the question, but that Peng Heuk-bin’s gaze was too scary.
Peng Hyuk-bin took a step closer and asked again.
“Or did he send us from Sapa to spy on us?”
When Peng Hyeok-bin asked the last question, Jeom So-yi was pushed to the end of the Naruto.
The urgent dotted line screamed.
“Wait a minute, Your Majesty! Calm down. Why are all the people from Habukpangga so impatient?”
“hmm.”
Only then did Peng Hyuk-bin look around.
Everyone in Naruto was looking at him.
When Peng Hyeok-bin calmed down, Jeom So-yi scratched the back of her head and answered.
“No, that’s not it. They told me to ask the person in charge here directly.”
Jeomsoi glanced around and pointed to where the group from Habukpangga was.
There, several of Peng Heuk-bin’s subordinates were nodding their heads.
Peng Hyuk-bin smiled bitterly.
Even if there was a misunderstanding, it was a firm decision.
Peng Hyuk-bin, who had collected his expression, continued speaking.
“We’re done. So don’t waste your time.”
“No, I already received the deposit.”
“… … .”
Peng Hyuk-bin looked at Jeom So-yi without saying a word.
Jeomsoi quickly continued his explanation.
“It’s nothing else… … .”
Peng Heok-bin’s eyes widened at his explanation. The one who paid the deposit was none other than his younger brother, Han-bin.
Peng Hyeok-bin was a little resentful of Han-bin, who had given him all the work and then run away without anyone noticing.
But Hanbin paid the deposit?
Peng Hyuk-bin was incredibly dumbfounded.
After hearing Jeom So-yi’s explanation, the first thing Pang Hyeok-bin did was look around.
When Peng Hyeok-bin looked around, Jeom So-i said.
“Why are you like this, Your Majesty?”
“I said that because I thought my younger sibling might be nearby.”
“Hey, the youngest prince has already crossed the Jangha River a long time ago. He went with the warriors of the Sacheondang family, so you don’t have to worry.”
“You left with Sacheondangga?”
“Oh, I’m sorry. I told you not to say that… … .”
Jeomsoi quickly covered her mouth with one hand and waved the other hand around.
Peng Hyuk-bin narrowed his eyes at that sight.
Peng Hebin also knew about the rumors going around about the Sacheondangga procession.
There was a rumor that he was returning to Sacheondangga with the best doctor in the world.
The best doctor in the world?
Who could it be?
Why did Hanbin join the procession?
What if the member of parliament that Sacheondangga took was Hanbin?
Peng Hyuk-bin thought about the changes in Han Bin these days.
In Peng Heuk-bin’s view, his younger brother was highly regarded for his wisdom and martial arts skills, but he was an outsider when it came to medicine.
In fact, there were many questions about his strategy and martial arts.
It hasn’t been that long since I’ve been away from Hanbin.
Well, a few years might be a long time, but it was an impossible amount of time to learn such ascending martial arts.
Strategy there too?
Peng Heuk-bin thought that Han-bin had been hiding all this from him.
However, medicine is different.
Because medicine is not a field that can be learned alone.
Medicine is a field where you can’t just imagine and practice medicine by reading a book, and even if you practice medicine by reading a book, the application method is different for each constitution, so you can’t improve your skills without dealing with people.
But why is it with Sacheondangga?
Questions began to pile up in Peng Hyuk-bin’s head like a midwinter snowstorm.
Whenever I think about Hanbin, the world feels dizzy as if it’s spinning around.
At that moment, Jeomsoi’s urgent voice was heard.
“Instead of doing this here, why don’t you stop by our store first?”
“Hmm, okay.”
Peng Hyuk-bin nodded.
Jeomsoi bowed her head slightly and began to guide them.
Of course, that point was the point that entertained Hanbin.
In fact, Jeom So-i was extremely uncomfortable with Pang Hyeok-bin.
Hanbin and his group were no pushovers either.
Well, it wasn’t that Hanbin was prickly, but he was being teased by Seolhwa and Cheonghwa.
However, the fatigue from that time disappeared like melting snow thanks to the reward Hanbin gave me when he left.
The person who was uncomfortable yet thankful was Hanbin.
But then that guy, Hyung, came.
I had already heard from Daru’s Rouge that he would come.
Lu Zhu, like Han Bin, also asked Peng Hebin to be treated as a guest of honor.
The fact that Hanbin paid the deposit in advance was also something that Rooju had asked for.
* * *
After a while.
Peng Hyuk-bin, who had entered Daru, tilted his head.
It was strange seeing the first person, but the rest of the people were too polite to him.
As far as Peng Hyeok-bin knew, this was a behavior that had never been seen at Jangha Ferry Terminal.
As soon as the car came out, Peng Heuk Bin was surprised again.
This is because the northern hwabong tea, which is hard to find these days, has come out.
How much did you pay as deposit?
A question began to pile up in Peng Hyuk-bin’s mind.
What is even more incomprehensible is that he even passed the torch to his own subordinates.
However, the man sitting in front of him is drinking tea without any suspicion.
“Good, good.”
“Uncle, don’t you think it’s strange that such an expensive car is being brought out?”
“There’s an old saying that goes, ‘If it’s free, I’ll even drink old water.’ Don’t doubt kindness.”
“Uncle, you say there is no such thing as a free lunch, so why don’t you doubt this?”
“Didn’t Hanbin say he prepared it?”
“How would you know we would come here?”
“If you were me, would you leave this road and go another way?”
“hmm.”
“Well, he’s a bit of a weirdo. I guess that’s because there are times when I don’t know his depth.”
“all right.”
It was when Peng Hyuk-bin nodded as if he could not do it.
Jeomsoi carefully brought the plate.
He started placing the plates here and there.
Knock. Knock.
Then he placed the largest plate on Peng Hyeok-bin’s table.
widely.
Peng Hyuk-bin tilted his head as he looked at the plate.
Because the plate was full of sweets and rice cakes.
Jeom So-yi smiled brightly, not caring about Pang Hyeok-bin’s expression.
“Enjoy your meal. I bought all the sweets and rice cakes from a nearby shop that is famous for its delicious food.”
“Huh, what the heck is this… … .”
“This is my sincerity, so please eat it without any burden.”
Jeomsoi, who had lowered her head so low that it almost touched the floor, quickly returned to her seat.
Peng Hyeok-bin and Peng Dae-wi tilted their heads at the sight of the pile of sweets and rice cakes on the table.
After watching for a while, Peng Hyeok-bin picked up the candy as if he had no choice.
It was also a bit odd to continue to ignore Jeomsoi’s sincerity.
At that moment, Jeom So-i, who was watching them from the kitchen, spoke to her colleague next to her.
“See, you’re eating it. It was a good idea to prepare it in advance, wasn’t it?”
“I see.”
Of course, this was Jeomsoi’s misunderstanding.
In the past, Seolhwa and Cheonghwa had been nagging Jeomsoi so much that they had nails stuck in their ears.
At that time, seeing Hanbin and others having no choice but to eat one, I made the serious mistake of thinking that all the people of Habukpengga liked sweets and glutinous rice cakes.
* * *
The procession of Sacheondangga two days later.
Whenever Hanbin passed by, the eyes of the warriors of Sacheondangga were unusual.
There was a reason for this.
This is because Hanbin saved the warrior of Sacheondangga who had collapsed after eating the third stage of poison.
“Thank you, my lord.”
“Have you eaten, my lord?”
“Have you coughed, Your Majesty?”
They were calling Hanbin Zhang Zhu, not Confucius.
Only the Tanggimyeong and Tangdokdae were using the names they had previously been called by.
His status as the youngest prince of the Habuk Peng family was of no concern to them.
Only Han Bin, the leader of the Cheonsu Jangju and the best member of the National Assembly, was in their sight.
Well, Hanbin didn’t say anything to them.
He said he would do it well, but Hanbin was not the type to refuse.
The leader of the Sacheon Party, who was ahead, shouted out his name.
“Everyone stop! We’re resting here.”
When the procession stopped, Hanbin got out of the carriage.
Hanbin got out of the carriage and looked at Seolhwa.
Then he looked at the roof of the carriage and said:
“Snow flower, some doves.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Seol-hwa climbed gently onto the roof and brought a birdcage.
The warriors of Sacheondangga who were watching from the side were amazed by Seolhwa’s lightness technique.
“Wow, is that a ghost? Or a person?”
“That’s right.”
However, what surprised Danggi-myeong was the communication between Hanbin and Seolhwa.
Even though I didn’t say which pigeon it was, the story was amazingly well-understood.
Well, it’s ridiculous to think that all instructions can be given with a snap of the fingers.
While Dang Gi-myeong, who was watching from the side, opened his mouth, Seol-hwa nonchalantly took the birdcage to Han-bin.
The cage that Seolhwa brought contained a pigeon that the enemy had used to send a letter a few days ago.
Hanbin tied a letter box to the pigeon’s leg.
And then he blew it up right away.
At that moment, Danggi-myeong came running urgently.
“Your Majesty Peng.”
“Why are you so surprised?”
“Why on earth did you release that dove?”
“If fewer pigeons come, we will be more vigilant.”
“Wasn’t there an order in the preface to prepare for the next step?”
“Is that the only pigeon?”
“but…….”
“I added some seasoning to the recipe.”
“Huh? What kind of trick did you use in the letter?”
“That’s… … a secret.”
Hanbin smiled brightly and looked at the pigeons flying in the sky.
I thought it was time for him to repay the favor, since he had saved the dying pigeon.
* * *
A week later, in the guest house next to Jang Ha Naru’s house.
Peng Heuk-bin and his party spent a few days at the inn where Han Bin had previously stayed.
Today was the day the long-awaited ship arrived.
They came down to the first floor to have breakfast.
Peng Hyuk-bin narrowed his eyebrows and looked at Peng Dae-wi.
“Uncle.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Are you okay, uncle? I can’t get the bad smell out of my mouth.”
“Haha. Just like you said, I also started eating breakfast to get rid of the bad smell. I’ve been suffering from sweets and rice cakes for a week, so I’m out of my mind.”
“Then I should say it without making you feel bad. Please bear with it, at least for today.”
That was when.
The waiters at the inn began to bring out the food.
But there was something strange.
They started putting food on the empty tables.
It was a strange thing.
Peng Hyuk-bin called Jeom So-yi.
“I have a question.”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Are there any more guests coming?”
“Oh, if you mean the food on that table, it’s prepared in advance. I’ve had a hard time before when they suddenly barged in… … .”
Jeomsoi looked out the door, scratching the back of her head as if wondering what was going on.
Peng Hyuk-bin asked at that sight.
“Can you tell me who is coming?”
“Before, the youngest prince also brought guests with him on the morning of the day he left the inn. From the martial arts world to the Gaebo people… I think they will definitely come.”
“Haha, I won’t do that. If I’m not careful, I’ll end up throwing all that food away. Thinking like you is a mistake that anyone can easily make. Come to think of it, that’s why I brought out the sweets and rice cakes.”
It was when Peng Hyuk-bin shook his head while looking at Jeom So-yi.
The door to the guest house opened.
Rattling.
The door opened and a man carrying a huge sword on his back slowly walked into the guest room.
Peng Hyuk-bin pulled his sword sheath back slightly, feeling slightly nervous.
That was when.
The man looked at Peng Hyuk-bin with a hearty laugh.
“Haha, everyone is here. Mr. Peng Daewi! It’s been a while.”
