Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 395
Only Noblemtl
395. What are you doing, Confucius? (3)
Yang Ha-sam stopped one step in front of Baek Mi-rang.
He instinctively stopped just one step ahead and asked urgently.
“Your Majesty, are you okay?”
“It’s okay.”
Baek Mi-rang waved her hands.
When he saw Baek Mi-rang’s sharp gaze through the fluttering sleeves, the escort Yang Ha-sam quickly stepped back.
Only then did he realize his mistake.
Moonju Baekmirang does not allow anyone into her workplace without permission.
It is also called Hwajunghwa (畵中花), which means flower in a painting, along with the nickname Sammirang.
Flowers are flowers, but Baek Mi-rang was someone you could only look at.
Yang Ha-sam glanced at Baek Mi-rang.
He instinctively stopped, but he knew that he had already taken a step past the absolute distance of one chapter.
Yang Ha-sam stepped back, bowed his head, and held the prize.
He politely nodded, as if he understood the scolding.
Yang Ha-sam doesn’t know if Baek Mi-rang has this habit.
But I was sure that it did not deviate from the cause.
It is ridiculous to discuss the cause in Haomen, but Baek Mi-rang of the Sichuan branch was faithful to the cause.
So, wouldn’t it be better for both the sects and the political factions to get along together?
As Yang Ha-sam stepped back, Baek Mi-rang narrowed her eyes and asked.
“What did you instruct me to do?”
“It was placed without even an inch of error.”
Yang Ha-sam let out a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Baek Mi-rang’s calm voice flowed out again.
“Is it also true that the person who placed the bet was the Four Princes of Habukpengga?”
“Yes, I checked that too. The one who placed the bet was definitely Sa Gong-ja.”
Yang Ha-sam nodded again.
Although he was nodding, Yang Ha-sam could not understand the true meaning of Baek Mi-rang’s instructions.
Baek Mi-rang strangely gave instructions that deviated from the cause in this case.
This was something completely different from what Baek Mi-rang had done before.
It didn’t matter to Haomen whether the winner of the bet was a Baekjeong or a monk.
However, Baek Mi-rang’s attitude changed after she found out that he was the son of the Habuk Peng family.
Baek Mi-rang instructed Habuk Pengga Sa Gongja to give him several trials while he was on his way here.
The strange thing is that the ordeal was one that was difficult for a member of the political faction to refuse.
But if he were to accept all of those trials, the four princes of Hebei Pengga would not have been able to arrive here by midnight.
What if you refuse the ordeal?
Perhaps it would have tarnished the reputation of the Habuk Peng family, which was a political party.
If it’s a political party, it’s created a situation where neither this nor that is possible.
Then Baek Mi-rang spoke again.
“Did you give the exact order for the operation, Yang Ho-wi?”
“Yes, that’s right. I have also told you all about the weaknesses of the Habukpengga Sa Gongja. Those kids are experts in this area, so they will do well. You don’t have to worry, Your Majesty.”
“What should I worry about…? Last time, I ate all the masters of Cheongseong. Haha.”
Baek Mi-rang took a sip of her drink.
Yang Ha-sam stole a glance at her expression.
He quickly turned his head.
It was to hide his embarrassed expression.
It seemed like Baek Mi-rang had a different meaning.
A slightly vulgar tone of speech.
The corners of the lips slightly raised there.
Although everyone seemed to be enjoying imagining the other person falling into a trap, Baek Mi-rang’s eyes were moist.
Could it be said that these are the eyes of a woman waiting for her lover?
What on earth happened?
It’s not something you can ask.
All I could do was watch the actions of the owner, Baek Mi-rang.
While escort Yang Ha-sam was observing Baek Mi-rang’s complexion, his thoughts wandered around.
I heard a sparrow crying outside the window.
tweet.
At that sound, Baek Mi-rang woke up and opened the window.
Under the window, a sparrow was looking at Baekmirang, drenched in rain.
When Baek Mi-rang held out her hand, a sparrow flew down and landed on the back of her hand.
The sparrow spits out a tiny grain of rice into Baekmirang’s hand.
Bam.
Baekmirang raised the corners of her mouth after checking the rice.
There was only one letter engraved on each grain of rice.
[Exit]
This was the story of how the four princes of Habukpengga climbed over the wall of Sacheondangga.
Baek Mi-rang took out a small box from her bosom.
The tiny box, which was the size of a little finger joint, appeared at first glance to contain makeup tools.
Baek Mi-rang opened the box and took out a small piece of thread.
The thread is wriggling at Baek Mi-rang’s fingertips.
It was a thin earthworm, not a thread.
Baek Mi-rang put the earthworm into the sparrow’s mouth.
The sparrow quickly ate it.
Baek Mi-rang said at that sight.
“Go back now, Cao Cao.”
tweet.
The sparrow seemed to understand Baekmirang’s words and started chirping.
Then it quickly flew up from the back of Baek Mi-rang’s hand.
Yang Ha-sam swallowed dry saliva as he watched the scene.
What I was most curious about was the identity of that bird.
To Yang Ha-sam, that bird was no ordinary sparrow.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to understand what he was saying.
Moreover, the sparrow went exactly where Baekmirang told him to go.
Of course, this only applies to places the sparrow has been to or people it knows.
It was clear that the food wasn’t just ordinary earthworms.
Whenever the sparrows ate that food, they seemed to strangely become more lively.
For a person, it was like taking an elixir.
It was when Yang Ha-sam was arousing his curiosity.
Baek Mi-rang spoke in a quiet voice.
“Now, let’s go out and escort the sheep.”
“Understood, Your Majesty.”
After paying his respects, Yang Ha-sam quickly left the room.
Then I looked out the window in the hallway of the pavilion.
Soon he opened his mouth wide at the unexpected sight.
That’s understandable, I thought people would flock there.
There are easily over two hundred people who have bet money.
But the view outside the window is of a sea of people.
This is not an exaggeration, it really looked like that.
It seemed as if all the people of Sacheon had gathered in the market place where the inns and stalls were gathered.
At that moment, a gisaeng tilted her head at Yang Ha-sam’s expression.
“Aren’t you Mr. Yang Ho-wi?”
“Oh, it’s Ye-yeon. Even if you say that there are only three hundred people who have put up a bet, isn’t it no exaggeration to say that all the people of Sacheon have gathered there?”
“Hey, you’re right next to me, Lord Moon, and you don’t know that?”
“You seem to know.”
“Of course. Our kids are not in chaos right now either.”
“What do you mean by chaos?”
“Rumor has it that the biggest winner in a hundred years is coming here. Our kids are all gearing up to impress him and get a piece of the action.”
“Haha, so that’s what happened. But why aren’t you prepared?”
“How many years have I been a gisaeng? I don’t even look at a tree that I can’t climb. I’d rather be a beggar on the street holding a bowl than a gisaeng. Hehe.”
The gisaeng named Ye-yeon smiled as if nothing had happened.
Yang Ha-sam also laughed at that sight.
Sometimes, among the gisaengs, there were some who seemed to have left the secular world and looked at the world with ease.
Actually, this is a bit of an exaggeration, and there were many peculiar children in Manwolru.
A gisaeng who sells manners without selling her body.
A courtesan who sells neither her body nor her soul.
The types were diverse, including gisaengs who seemed to have achieved enlightenment like Ye-yeon.
In fact, if Yeyeon had gone to another guiru, she would have been a beauty who would have taken the top spot.
However, here at Manwolru, everything was ordinary.
That was when.
There was a commotion outside.
There was a scramble to get a good spot.
The crowds are growing bigger and bigger.
Yang Ha-sam realized that this was one of the trials that the four princes of Habukpengga would face.
It would be suicidal to cross there and enter Manwolru.
The moment he found out who had taken the money, Habukpengga Sa’s pockets would have become a bottomless jar.
* * *
Same time.
Seol-hwa, who had seen Han-bin walking unsteadily, asked urgently.
“Your Majesty, do you know the way to Manwolru?”
“Surely I wouldn’t take the lead without knowing? Of course I would know.”
“Oh, when did you finish investigating?”
“I always tell you, be prepared.”
“Yes, you always said to prepare thoroughly and retreat quickly, but… … .”
When Seolhwa tilted her head and trailed off, Hanbin quickly asked.
“Why are you doing that?”
“There’s a person collapsed over there.”
Seolhwa pointed to the person lying in the middle of the road.
A cart stopped next to him.
At first glance, the person who had fallen had gray hair and looked quite old.
Judging by the lack of movement, it was clear that he had lost consciousness.
People just passed by the cart without any intention of helping.
You might think it’s harsh, but the people of Sacheon were extremely vigilant because the rumor about Sacheon Dangga had just spread like wildfire.
In a way, it was natural.
Seolhwa looked to the side and whispered softly.
“I think we should help, Cheonghwa.”
“Yes, sis.”
It was when Seolhwa and Cheonghwa were about to run to him.
At that sight, Dang Se-ryeong quickly stepped forward.
“I think it would be better for us to take a different route. Seolhwa, Cheonghwa.”
She gestured another way with her chin.
Cheonghwa and Seolhwa tilt their heads.
In an emergency situation, Hanbin glanced at the path she was pointing at and raised his spirits to the max.
At that moment, the corners of Hanbin’s mouth slightly rose.
Then he nods as if he understands something.
Tang Se-ryeong couldn’t control his curiosity at the sudden appearance and asked.
“Your Majesty, why are you doing this?”
“Just go that way.”
When Hanbin pointed to the place where the person had fallen, Dang Se-ryeong quickly answered.
“That side looks ominous. The cart is stopped on the road and there are no people around. Anyone can tell it’s a trap.”
Dang Se-ryeong pointed again at the cart in the distance.
In fact, if it were any other time, I would have been the first to run to find out what was going on and offer a helping hand.
That was the way the Sacheon Party, a political party, managed Sacheon.
The logic was that the Sacheon Party should have both the carrot and the stick.
However, after experiencing a bloody battle with the Dark Emperor, Dang Se-ryeong began to feel that even the land of Sacheon, which was ruled by the Dang family, could not be at ease.
It was what is called a suspicious person.
At that time, Hanbin started to move forward first.
Dang Se-ryeong and the rest of the people had no choice but to chase after Han Bin.
Hanbin, who was walking unsteadily, stopped in front of a person who had collapsed in the middle of the road.
But I didn’t approach him right away.
His hair was gray, his skin was wrinkled, and his hands were covered in calluses.
At first glance, he appeared to be a local farmer, probably in his sixties.
Hanbin examined the carriage and the traces around it.
While Hanbin was looking around, Seolhwa asked.
“Confucius, what do you think happened?”
“The wheel has fallen off. It has been shaking and the interest has dropped, and it seems that you have been unlucky enough to have your leg caught under the wheel.”
That was when.
A man who appeared to have lost consciousness woke up groaning.
“Umm, uh, please save me.”
At that sound, Hanbin slowly approached him.
The old man shook his shoulders as if he was having a hard time.
That was when.
Several people passing by gathered around Hanbin and the old man.
