10 – Boyhood ~Let’s welcome guests~
The 13th emperor of the Yellow Empire.
Commonly known as Emperor Yongle, he was an emperor without personality.
He’s not practicing benevolent politics like the first emperor.
He did not practice harsh tyranny like Emperor Sui (羞緇帝).
Just uncharacteristic.
Without clear marks.
An emperor who continues to rule smoothly.
That was the Yongle Emperor.
──.
The people of the Yellow Empire evaluated Yongle Emperor as such.
However, unlike the people who were distant from the imperial family, the officials who knew the emperor to some extent had the opposite opinion.
A leader who is crazy about talent.
A tyrant who pushes his vassals to the limit.
Emperor married to work and so on.
The emperor’s disposition to efficiently manage officials was recognized even in the imperial family, and especially his desire to collect talented people was such that even his aides stuck out their tongues.
A representative example of this was the 10 Emperors of the Empire, whom the Yongle Emperor cherished like his own family.
It is said that the Emperor Yongle had collected them since he was a child.
In the 10th dynasty, there were high-ranking nobles such as Yeon Chang-hyeok, the head of the family, and common people such as Shun Jian.
Considering that even the first emperor did not appoint non-nobles because of their low status, the Yongle emperor took truly unconventional steps to obtain them.
The Huangryong Festival, which was originally created for the purpose of sacrificing the military god, was transformed into a full-scale martial arts competition by absorbing talented warriors whom the Sun Emperor had neglected.
In order to acquire talent, I used my hands in various ways, regardless of means and methods.
Even the 10 emperors appointed by the Yongle Emperor treated them as if they were the imperial family, regardless of their status.
The follow-up management for talented people was also at a perfect level.
Even before ascending to the throne, the Yongle emperor had a terrible desire to collect talent, but ironically, he couldn’t get the talent he wanted the most…….
That was Alex Premier, The main character of Failed Hero 2.
───
Alex, whom I first met in Academy City, was seen as a very strange person by the Yongle Emperor.
The first place he and Alex met was the Agora Mutou Festival, a martial arts competition in Academy City, and a tough relationship began when Alex, a failing student, beat him, who was a candidate for the championship at the time.
At the time, Alex was aiming for the finals to defeat the main villain, so the Yongle Emperor was devastated by his hands that did not hide his strength.
Ordinary members of the royal family with high self-esteem would feel great humiliation the moment they were defeated by a mere loser, but the Yongle Emperor was different.
His intuition, sharp since childhood, saw through Alex’s talent, and when he realized that he was the most valuable gemstone in Academy City, he clung to it.
‘In the end, we go to the party of warriors and defeat the demon king together.’
Especially, the process of joining the party was almost like a stalker, so he made most of the users who were playing the game break into a cold sweat.
‘That’s why they are called royal gays in the community.’
Users can freely create the composition of the warriors party, so it was enough not to choose them, but unfortunately, unlike that personality, they had good abilities, so they took the main tank’s place without omission.
The difference between him and his absence was so great that Skyna, the developer, even said that he was threatened in exchange for his performance, so it must have been shocking.
Anyway.
Judging from this series of cases, the Yongle Emperor is madly obsessed with talented people.
He wants to have him under his command somehow, and if that doesn’t work, he’s the type of personality that will only work if he has at least a friendly relationship with him.
So it was clear that if I met him now, something big would happen.
As the people of the Yan family have said countless times so far, I was aware of the extraordinary talent of this body, so it was obvious that Emperor Yongle would not remain still in the face of me.
‘It’s a relief if you wear a leash. If I do something wrong, I might even get kidnapped.’
Of course, since I have an untitled father, I won’t use disquieting methods, but I just need to create a reason.
Moreover, to my resentment, my father had no ill feelings toward the imperial family and Emperor Yongle, so he might really be sold to the imperial family if he was persuaded well.
From my father’s point of view, it will definitely benefit the family if I build friendships with the imperial family from an early age.
If you make a strong bond with the royal family and return to the family, the royal family can become a strong ally of the kite family.
‘This is really scary because of the possibility…….’
If I were to go to the imperial family, I would be adorned like a trophy while receiving the gaze of a perverted emperor.
Ugh. Just imagining it gives me chills…….
.
.
.
…That’s why there’s nothing I can do about it, even if I beat the waiters and escape.
I got up early in the morning, shunned Seon-hwa, and chased away the ladies-in-waiting who had been following me without warning, then entered the garden where there were few people on the site.
‘The maids… Must be watching.’
I haven’t been able to shake it off with my skills yet, so I used the power of Sogaju to drive it out, but due to their personalities, they must be watching this place from nearby.
Even so, seeing that Chae-hyeon, her exclusive lady-in-waiting, did not come, it seems that her father gave up moderately.
“Phew. I barely survived.”
As I took off my mask and wiped the sweat from my forehead, only then did I see the scenery around me.
A tree harmoniously equipped with colorful flowers.
In between, even the delicately shaped vine path.
“Hmm~ It’s healing.”
I always hummed when I arrived at such a comfortable place after living as if I was being chased by something.
The scenery is also nice. Shall we take a nap here until the guests leave?
Thinking of that, the moment I lay down on the nearby lawn.
“Is anyone there?”
I heard the voice of a young girl nearby.
At the same time, the grass rustled and a small head popped out.
“Ohh! A strange mask!”
“Then you’re also a strange figure.”
It looked like he had just been rolling around in the garden, covered in leaves all over his body.
“Why did you leave the road intact in the first place and come by damaging the vine?”
“Chit-chit! Original woman doesn’t do boring exploration like that! She carves out her own way! The original woman decides her own path!”
“You’re a tomboy girl.”
Judging by her attire, she seems to be a child of a noble family. Is she a collateral or the daughter of an elder?
She was a girl with bright blonde hair and clear skin.
You must be a bit younger than me.
Anyway, that’s really gorgeous hair.
Is there such a bright blonde in our family?
Toktok─
Hmm…. There was definitely no elder.
Tuktuk──
Of course there are a lot of collaterals, so there must be blondes, but such bright blondes…….
Awkward——!
“Eight! I can’t stop!”
“Wow!?”
I couldn’t stand the girl who kept touching the mask, so I finally stood up.
“What are you doing with someone else’s mask!”
“If you have such a strange mask, it’s only natural to take it off! Come on! Don’t be mean and show your face!”
“Will you stick it out!”
A girl jumps up and down and tries to snatch the mask, but with light footwork, the girl quickly gets tired and puffs up her cheeks.
“Awesome! How arrogant! How dare you know who the original woman is!”
“So you know who I am?”
“I don’t know who you are! Even now, hurry up and apologize to the original girl… Kkeang!”
“You cheeky kid. How old are you?”
“Ughh…. 6, 6 Years old.”
“I’m 8. You’re 6. So who’s Wei?”
“Ha, but the original girl is nobler than anyone else…”
“I’m 8. You’re 6. Who’s older?”
“…That’s you.”
“Isn’t it? Then you should use honorifics for elders.”
“Ha, but the original girl…!”
“Write!”
“Hey…Ah, I see…”
A girl shedding tears with a huge hump hanging from her head.
It seems quite resentful to see her bow her head and wiggle her fingers.
With her whip out, it’s time to stick out the carrot.
“Good job.”
“…!”
A girl backed away in surprise as she lightly stroked her hair as a compliment.
“What are you doing all of a sudden!”
“Uh huh. Honorific.”
“What, what are you doing…!”
“Is that a compliment?”
“Praise? Chi, praise…”
“Rather than that, I still don’t know the name. Let’s start with the last name. I am Yeon Je-seong. I am Soga-ju of the Yeon family here. How are you, now you know who you are dealing with?”
“Whether it’s the Yeon family or the Soga family, it’s trivial! The original daughter’s name is… Se-hee. Yes, it’s Se-hee!”
“Sehee? No last name?”
“Last name…I’ll tell you later.”
What a picky girl.
Reluctantly nodding her head, I chatted with Sehee for a while.
It’s a very noble feeling to describe it as chatting, but in reality it was a bit different.
“…So! Her mother-in-law’s brother always disturbs her mother-in-law! How did she know that she was going to go out without her maids knowing the other day?”
“It’s the same this time! If it wasn’t for Jungnangjang, I wouldn’t have been able to shake off the ladies-in-waiting that my brothers gave me, let alone such a wonderful garden!”
“Huh? Jungnangjang? More than that, did you shake off her ladies-in-waiting?”
Aren’t they your escorts?
Besides, the garden here is a particularly secluded place within the family, so they would usually guide you to the garden near Taeheodang or Cheongbingwan.
Are you guiding me to a place where people are rare?
Is that also to get rid of the handmaids who serve as escorts and surveillance?
“Oh, no way…”
As Se-hee’s identity was inferred to some extent, a deep sense of anxiety suddenly rose.
“Hey, let’s get out of here.”
“Ehh? Why? The original girl wants to play more.”
“I don’t have time for that. Quickly.”
“Hmm… Is it because the original girl kept talking nonsense from a while ago? I’m sorry if that’s the case…”
Shhh—
“As expected!”
“Wow!”
I wonder if Sehee’s realization of identity and at the same time that she was paying attention to her surroundings saw the light of day?
As soon as I heard a sharp sound over the grass, I hugged Sehee and ran away.
Leaving the bewildered Sae-hee behind, she twists her body to avoid the memorization that follows.
It’s a memorized skill used by assassins, so it must be poisoned.
I don’t know, but if Sehee gets hit by that, she’ll definitely get poisoned.
‘I have to protect Sehee, so I can’t even hit her with my hands. Let’s avoid it as much as possible and ask for help from those around us.’
Fortunately, there are maids who have followed me around.
They’ll deal with the assassins.
“This, what is this…?”
“Shh. Be quiet. I’ll be done soon.”
“No, that’s impossible! What are you going to do alone!”
“Because I have to do that difficult thing.”
If you don’t, you’ll die.
Oops, look at how sharp the blade is.
If you cut yourself with that, you won’t even be able to pick a bone.
“What kind of guys are they!”
“…….”
“Who did you instruct?”
“…….”
Assassins are skilled assassins, and they do not show any clear reaction, only remaining silent in response to endless questions.
At the same time, my eyes quickly scanned the surroundings.
‘The number of assassins is about 4 or more. If there is an assassin looking for an opportunity while hiding, is it the end?’
Please pray that all the guys in front of you will win.
