Habuk Pengga Swordsman Genius - Chapter 456
Only Noblemtl
456. Uninvited Guest (1)
There was only one thing that required one to complete the Confucian Academy even if one did not wish to pursue a government post.
It was supposed to be a member of the royal family.
The only case where a commoner becomes a member of the royal family is when he becomes the son-in-law.
At Yulim Seowon, you can learn everything from the Four Books and Three Classics to humanity, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trust, and even court etiquette.
For that reason, candidates for the position of prince must complete the Confucian Academy.
Kang Yu-chan couldn’t understand this part at all.
The four princes of Habukpengga and Boomara?
No matter how much I thought about it, there was no connection.
Kang Yu-chan was absent-minded after delivering the gift.
He realized his mistake and quickly continued speaking.
“Even in the Spring and Autumn Annals, it is said that a person who is skilled in both civil and military affairs is like an old pine tree that has lived for a thousand years. What would it be like if the Habuk Peng family, who was famous throughout the Central Plains, also had civil affairs?”
“… … .”
“It seems like all of this is Your Majesty’s arrangement.”
“I see. Thank you very much.”
Peng Gangwi quickly fired a shot in the direction of Beijing.
Kang Yu-chan continued speaking at that sight.
“It’s okay if you don’t show any manners since we’re the only ones here.”
“Is this admission permit for our Hanbin?”
“Maybe… … .”
Kang Yu-chan trailed off.
Even Kang Yu-chan doesn’t know who the permit for Yulim Seowon is for.
But if not the Four Dukes of Habukpengga, then who else could be the target?

It was while a secret conversation was taking place in the reception room.
The warriors of the Golden Guard and the Dongchang clan were now in a state of confusion.
The reason they were out of their minds now was simple.
Because it was so hard, even though it was hard.
This procession carrying the Emperor’s orders was put together in the blink of an eye.
It was due to the insistence of alumni that the award should be given quickly.
Because of that, they had to run a thousand miles in one go without even eating.
I thought I could at least get a bite to eat when I came here, but instead of getting a bite to eat, I had to stand in line in front of the main gate and not be able to move an inch.
Gulp.
They looked at each other as a noise echoed within their stomachs.
Although the King and his classmates are enemies, the expression ‘birds of a feather flock together’ was more appropriate at this time.
Looking at their expressions now, it was only natural that they had misunderstood the signboard that said “Penggangwi Wiguk” as a dog’s head.
Their expressions were rotten from the moment they arrived here.
One of them, a warrior of the Royal Guard, who could no longer bear it any longer, spoke quietly.
“When on earth will it end?”
It wasn’t a question intended to elicit an answer from anyone.
But then someone answered from the side.
“That’s right. Even though it’s the elders’ business, isn’t this too much?”
The person who spoke was Musa, a classmate.
That was the beginning.
The warriors of the Royal Guard and Dongchang, who were known to be tight-lipped, began to vent their grievances, wondering if they had been hit by a bullet.
When their leader turned his head, the crowd suddenly became quiet, but the commotion continued.
Buried within the procession of the royal guard and his fellow classmates was a small carriage.
It was a carriage surrounded by layers of golden guards and warriors from the same class.
That was when.
A warrior from the Habuk Peng family ran towards them.
The warrior of Habukpengga stood in front of the warrior who appeared to be the leader of the procession, excluding Kang Yuchan and Eunuch Seo.
What I could tell at a glance was that the warrior was standing at the very front. And the martial arts uniform he was wearing also looked the most luxurious of all.
He quickly swung his gun at the leader of the line.
“Your Majesty, how about we start with the neck first? The great man Kang Yu-chan and Eunuch Seo who are inside have also consented. Everyone, please come this way.”
In an instant, the expressions on the faces of the Golden Guard and the fellow warriors returned to normal.
In fact, they were already at their limit. They would collapse in just half an hour.
But I couldn’t help but be happy when he said he had prepared a meal for me.
Everyone, from common warriors to those in charge, followed the Habukpengga warriors with shining eyes.
The warriors guarding the carriage followed suit.
One of the warriors who had been walking for a while tilted his head.
“Did you forget something?”
“What I forgot is that we haven’t eaten yet.”
“I see. That’s true.”
They became one with the Golden Guard and the Dongchang and followed the Habuk Pengga warrior.
When they were all gone, only a few carriages and carts remained.
The door of the carriage, which had been surrounded by layers of warriors, opened a little.
Ssuk.
As the carriage door opens, a pair of eyes scan the surroundings.
The owner of the eyes, realizing that there was no one around, opened the door a little wider.
The owner of the eyes peeked his face out.
Her hair was curled to both sides, as if there were two swallow’s nests on her head, and her large eyes rolled back and forth, giving her the impression of a girl from the countryside.
She opened the carriage door wide with her long, slender hands.
Then he quickly got out of the carriage and shook his hands.
Her true identity was none other than Princess Pal, born between the emperor and the empress dowager.
Although she was called Princess Eight in the world, her real name was Hyomyeong.
Although he was sixteen years old, he was on the smaller side compared to his peers due to an illness he had suffered from since childhood.
But she was cured of her illness and was growing up quickly day by day.
Hyomyeong was a girl who dreamed of becoming someone’s bride one day.
Hyomyeong glanced back.
Behind her, a woman who appeared to be her concubine was sleeping, seemingly exhausted.
There was incense in a small censer in front of the woman.
The scent was wafting out of the carriage.
Judging from the fact that even the guard sitting on the horse’s back was nodding off, I could guess what the scent was.
Hyomyeong, who had checked all the circumstances, smiled brightly.
It was a child’s smile, not a woman’s smile.
Hyomyeong tilted his head as he looked around with an innocent look.
Because I didn’t know where to go.
She paused, pondering the direction, then quickly ran somewhere.
It was in the opposite direction from where the Geumuiwi and Dongchang warriors had gone.
Why did she come here?
It was to see the Habukpangga of his dreams.
The reason she kept Habukpangga in her heart was simple.
This is because the person who cured his illness was none other than the Sa Gong Ja of Habuk Peng Ga.
No one could cure the varicose veins that had plagued me since I was young.
The varicose veins that occur in women are usually due to yin energy blocking the pulse.
However, the venous insufficiency that Hyomyeong was suffering from was a strange disease in which yang energy blocked the pulse.
In a woman’s body, blockage of the blood vessels in various places by yang energy was not a common disease.
The only thing that can cure that disease is the inner chamber of a spirit filled with yin energy.
That was the inner workings of Cheonsanhyeolrang.
The four Confucius of Habukpengga was like an immortal who cured his illness.
She lived with the phrase ‘The Four Princes of Habukpengga’ in her mouth like a habit.
Even Hyun-bi gave her permission, saying that he was a good candidate for the groom.
The condition was that it would be possible in just a few years.
She had briefly seen the four Confucius of the Habuk Peng family in Chil-eum-hyeon not long ago.
After that, Hyomyeong’s heart grew deeper.
Even if Hyomyeong could not meet the four princes of Hebei Pengga, he wanted to see the whole family.
But there was one condition for her coming here.
The condition was that he had to stay only in the carriage.
Even though he was protected by the Royal Guard and his classmates, the world of martial arts was a dangerous place.
The world of martial arts is one where you never know when or what will happen.
Her mother, Queen Hyeon, was from a martial arts background and knew the workings of the martial arts world better than anyone else.
Hyomyeong smiled faintly as he ran.
“You’re asking me to break the rules, oh my god.”
It wasn’t something I said for anyone to hear.
I just muttered to myself out of regret.
The sight of Hyomyeong moving between the pavilions was like a small loach escaping from a net.
Her lightness was quite useful.
It was to the extent that the Habukpengga warriors who were guarding the surrounding area didn’t even notice it.
Sasa Sak.
Because Hyomyeong was weak, he learned basic martial arts from Queen Hyeonbi.
However, thanks to the improved internal energy gained from eating Cheonsanhyeolrang’s internal medicine, I was able to obtain martial arts skills comparable to those of a first-class master.
Hyomyeong was a man of first-class martial arts skills, and in terms of internal energy, he had the opportunity to reach the peak.
After running for a while, a dense forest appeared before Hyomyeong’s eyes.
Hyomyeong looked at the forest carefully.
She set foot in the forest.
Then he quickly took his foot away.
“I’ve heard that places like this usually have formations. It’s only natural that there would be a formation in Habukpangga. Hmm… … . No matter how I look at it, I can’t tell what formation it is.”
Hyomyeong, who was mumbling to himself, continued to hesitate and think in front of the forest.
That was when.
A cough was heard from behind her.
“hmm.”
When I turned my head, I saw a girl who looked to be around my age with her arms crossed.
When their eyes met, the girl tilted her head and opened her mouth.
“What are you doing there?”
“You, who are you? What… … .”
Hyomyeong stuttered. He had come here to secretly look around Habukpengga, but it was obvious that the moment he revealed his identity, the Jinuiwi and his classmates would come rushing in.
The person who was looking at Hyo-myeong narrowed his eyes.
“Something seems suspicious?”
“What do you mean by suspicious… … ”
“Your tone is suspicious.”
“Hmm, what’s so suspicious about my speech?”
Hyomyeong quickly fixed his expression and continued speaking softly.
Then the other person tilted his head.
“Your tone suddenly changed.”
“That’s just how I speak. But… … .”
Hyomyeong also narrowed his eyes.
As the conversation continued, I began to feel somewhat uneasy.
Hyomyeong, whose words were trailing off, pondered the reason deeply.
Then the other person asked.
“But what?”
I realized why Hyomyeong was reluctant to listen to the other person’s words.
“Why are you talking informally to me?”
“You seem younger than me, so shouldn’t you be speaking informally to me?”
“Wha… … No, that’s not it. How old are you?”
“I’m fifteen. And you’re around thirteen?”
“Hey, fifteen? You still have a lot of blood on your head.”
Hyomyeong laughed bitterly, as if he found it ridiculous.
The other person’s face turned red at that sight.
“Why are you laughing?”
“I’m sixteen this year. I’ll be seventeen in a little while.”
The opponent collected his expression and snorted.
“Huh, how can I believe you?”
“You don’t believe me? What… … .”
“Your speech has become strange again.”
It was when the two were suddenly having an age-related fight.
Footsteps echoed from behind.
Thud thud.
In that moment, Hyomyeong grabbed the opponent’s wrist and quickly ran into the forest.
And then he held his breath.
A moment later, a guard warrior from Habukpengga appeared before Hyomyeong’s eyes.
Thud thud.
As they disappeared from sight, Hyo-myeong finally let out the breath he had been holding.
“phew.”
At the same time, the opponent also burst out in cheers.
“Oh, I almost got caught.”
“What? You came in secretly too?”
“Then you too?”
The other person also looked at Hyo-myeong in surprise.
With their mouths wide open and their eyes wide open, the two squirrels looked at each other like they were looking at each other.
That was when.
Only then did Hyomyeong remember that he had been unable to enter the forest because of the formation.
Hyomyeong shouted urgently.
“Oh no! I came in here without even knowing what this formation was.”
