The Prince’s Call (2)

The Jeongpa Alliance was large. It was so large that it had separate villas for each of its guests, and the crown prince himself was included among them.

The prince, who had come all the way from Beijing to Henan, decided to stay within the Jeongpa Alliance for some reason, so Yongun did not have much time to walk.

The prince’s palace was not splendid. Of course, it was sufficiently luxurious and precious, but because of the strong influence of Shaolin, it did not feel like it was covered in dazzling gold.

The moment he entered the entrance, a dreary atmosphere passed over Yongwoon’s body. Yongwoon burst out laughing in disbelief.

“How can one external mirror threaten you like this?”

There was no one to answer.

The prince was not in the building. There was a separate garden inside the villa, past the inner hall, and an artificial lake inside. In the lake where carps were swimming and playing, there was a small boat sitting alone, and the prince was on it.

“…”

He sat on the small boat and didn’t even look at Yongun. The boat was floating alone without a boatman, and there was no sign of it coming here.

Are you telling me to spread out my award? Yongwoon jumped high.

There was no sound even during the leap. The black haired woman did not follow him. Instead, she just looked closely at his feet, the next opponent.

With one leap, Yongun landed smoothly on the raft. Even though a grown man had jumped and landed, the water didn’t make a single ripple, and the wine glass on the raft didn’t move at all, which was truly strange.

“Don’t bow down.”

The prince spoke as he watched Yong-un, who was about to bow. Yong-un hesitated and sat down quietly at the other end of the boat.

“I’ve already seen enough temples that I don’t even like.”

The glass floated up on its own and landed in Yongwoon’s hand. A hollow stream. Yongwoon accepted the glass without saying a word.

“It’s Sacheonbaekju. It’s a truly mysterious liquor. Because it’s Baekju, it’s cheap, but it’s called Sacheon, so the liquor that cost one nyang for a boy now costs five nyang for a boy. To me, who has tasted delicacies from the mountains and the sea, this is even more precious.”

Should he dress up or not? Yongwoon slowly drank his wine after looking into the prince’s eyes. It tasted just like before. The prince smiled in an incomprehensible way.

“Do you know why I called you?”

“I don’t know.”

“Enter the Hwangryongmun Gate.”

Straight to the point. That’s why Yongwoon said it.

“I refuse.”

Whoosh-! Another fierce aura engulfed Yongwoon. It was even more intense and blatant than the warning at the entrance, and it made the small boat shake noisily.

“How dare you.”

The energy was being withdrawn. No, it was being torn apart. The man in front of him, the will of the prince, the intangible energy was tearing apart all those threats.

“Are you exuding a promiscuous aura in front of me?”

Kuuuung! Large waterfalls erupted from all over the lake. Soon after, several unmanned figures emerged from underneath and fell to the ground around the lake.

thud!

“I have committed a mortal sin!”

They are all super-adepts who have entered the Euihamcheonkyung. They were not seen at the Yongbongjihoe.

The prince’s gaze was indifferent. After taking a sip of his drink, he made a gesture and the violently rocking boat and the lake immediately stopped shaking.

“Everyone, step back.”

“but…!”

“Don’t make me say it twice.”

“…Your name!”

The guards with blood dripping from their foreheads all disappeared into shadows. The presence was obvious, but Yongwoon’s senses did not catch it.

“I’m sorry.”

“no.”

“So, why did you refuse?”

“Because what His Highness the Crown Prince wants and what I want are different.”

“Different? How do you know what I want?”

“His Highness the Crown Prince wishes to place Jianghu under my control.”

The prince poured the wine as if he was interested and kept his words to himself.

“The Jeongpa Alliance, the Sado Alliance, and even the Demonic Cult. The Mujin gathered enough power to threaten the imperial family, and the imperial family was unable to stop it. What’s more, they even suffered humiliation when they tried to stop it.”

Dokgo Jinhan was warm to his son, but he was not kind to the royal family. The eunuch personally went to Pamamyeong and delivered the emperor’s edict.

It was an order to immediately disperse the assembly. It was ignored. Dokgo Jinhan did not kneel or give a lottery.

The royal general who had gone with the eunuch was struck by Dokgo Jinhan’s sword and fainted. Swallowing his anger and humiliation, the eunuch had no choice but to return to Beijing.

The Demonic Cult lost its center. The imperial family could not send a messenger to the Sado League or the Jeongpa Alliance. It meant that they could not bear another humiliation.

The power of the Gangho was so threatening that the royal family had no choice but to hesitate.

“The Hwangryongmun’s rise is very provocative to the political faction and the martial arts world. The Hwangryongmun’s sect, which showed off its power by intruding into the Yongbongjihoe… can’t possibly look good.”

“It’s provocative, you’re using a word that’s really neat.”

“His Highness the Crown Prince – Since the Crown Prince, and no one else in the royal family, has come here, the Hwangryongmun Gate cannot be a mere game or a prank. There is no way the Crown Prince would not know that.”

“Really? This is a big problem.”

The prince, who had been whining, said with a smile.

“You haven’t said what you want yet.”

“What I want is freedom.”

‘Is this the first time I’m saying this with my own mouth?’

Down there – Yongwoon continued talking while looking at the carp floating in the lake.

“Freedom where no one can tell me what to do, freedom where I can endlessly pursue my own will, freedom where I can achieve whatever I want.”

“…Ha! That would never be possible under me.”

The extreme of martial arts, the ordinary sense of honor, the desire for power, things like that can be easily given up. But freedom.

“Isn’t it something you can never give away?”

“Yes.”

“So can you achieve it?”

“Yes. Definitely.”

Their gazes crossed. Dull eyes that could not read emotions or thoughts, and eyes that also hid everything but clearly revealed their true intentions.

The prince shook his head.

“It’s too bad. He was definitely a desirable talent.”

“Why do you care about someone like Oehyeon-gyeong?”

“There’s no way you wouldn’t know the reason.”

The prince said as he poured wine into Yongun’s glass.

“The greatest talent of the Jeongpa. A wild man who doesn’t belong to any sect or any other organization. A wild man who even defeated the minor head of the Tang family… entered the embrace of the imperial family. And if your skills improve by leaps and bounds… You are now a more important figure to the Jeongpa than anyone else. To the extent that you can be compared to that silent person.”

“Your kind words are too kind.”

“Stop feeling your emotions and say such things. Whether it’s a political party or a private party, in the end, most martial artists value their own lives. A sense of belonging and superiority are longings that have been rooted in humans for a long time. You will soon become the symbol of young savages. If you enter the Hwangryongmun, I will not spare my support. Seeing you shining inside, the martial artists will knock on the Hwangryongmun’s door even more.”

Yongwoon nodded. That was right. If it was Jeongpa, then it would be the same, but if it was Sapa – Hwangryongmun would naturally become the best sect in the world.

“It only takes a little gesture, a little step from someone else to shift the blame, to cross a line.”

“Did you make me a fool with those steps?”

“That’s right.”

“How about Black Dog? If the Crown Prince were to make such an offer on a moonlit night from a small boat, he would certainly follow.”

“This is too much for a black dog. You must have heard it. In Beijing, every word, every step has its own purpose. He would kneel and be loyal even if it was a white woman, not me.”

‘Does Baeknyeo mean Baekgi?’

“This situation is even more suitable for you. You are the kind of person who would stick out even more if I pressed you with authority.”

indeed.

“Did you know? Yongdubangju has specially modified the information about you.”

“Are you talking about special express?”

“Yes, if you become a special class, no one other than the leader of the faction can obtain information without the consent of the Yongdubangju. The Yongdubangju alone makes the decision and gives that person the opportunity to view the information.”

“That’s too much.”

“Is it really too much? He is a genius who cured Seongol (仙骨).”

There was silence for a moment on the boat under the moonlight. Only the gentle wind pushed the boat aimlessly, and the prince smiled and watched Yong-un’s reaction.

Soon he clicked his tongue and said, “Tsk.”

“This isn’t fun. Did you already know that?”

“It’s an easy thing to infer. I thought you could figure it out.”

“Easy to infer?”

“First of all, the existence of Seon-gol is information that the Crown Prince obtained from the Mosanpa or the Demonic Cult forces.”

“Are you inferring a cure?”

“The Hwasan party, who came to Hubei with that skeleton, met an unknown young man there and accompanied him.”

Even the child asked to meet the man first. The child of Seon-gol.

“They met Mosanpa and Eumhyeolgak, but Cheongunjinin repelled them, and Seon-gol, who had come from Hubei to Hanam, returned with Cheongunjinin for some reason. The unnamed man accompanied Geombong to Hanam after that, and after that, the man’s information was designated as special.”

The volcano wouldn’t have suddenly given up on the child’s life. Something had worked to save the child’s life, and Geombong wasn’t a woman who would hang out with a man for no reason.

“After that, the man’s information changes from first-class to special. If he’s not an idiot, he can tell that something intersecting is me.”

“Well, I guess so. Is there anything else?”

Yongwoon said with a smile.

“The word ‘cure’ probably comes from speculation.”

The prince agreed to it.

“Huh, that’s right. The sacrum needs to be adjusted to the upper tian. To do that, you need to think of magic, magic, or some extremely powerful magic. That’s why I saw you in person. However, your martial arts were too poor to have learned such divine magic, and your eyes were too cloudy and dry for an immortal. That’s where I saw you do acupuncture and came up with the idea of ​​medicine.”

The prince smiled broadly and nodded his head with satisfaction. His expression of joy did not seem to be a lie.

“I’m so sorry. Really. Can you please me more?”

“I am short on people, so it seems like I only have one more.”

“which?”

“When a person causes a great event, the first thing he does is to consolidate his power. His Highness the Crown Prince has come to Hanam in person and made a proclamation through the Hwangryongmun Gate, so it can be said that his power has already been completed.”

“so?”

“The Huanglongmun’s warriors are still weak, so they are fine, but the forces that His Highness the Crown Prince has brought together are those who have already established themselves in the martial arts world. Whether it be a sect or a whole. And just now, His Highness the Crown Prince mentioned opening up.”

There is no way the prince would have gone to Gaebong himself. And in Gaebong, information was ranked.

“My information was originally information that only the heads of first-class and renowned sects or families could see. There is no way the Crown Prince didn’t know about it, so the owner of such a large force that he had already recruited would have gone to Gaebong himself and asked for the information.”

“The question of who could be recruited is too obvious. There are only a limited number of people who can be recruited from the political faction.”

Yongwoon smiled silently. The prince sighed faintly.

“What a pity, what a pity. Freedom… is something I can never give. But I can’t threaten you either, so what.”

“Aren’t you going to do it?”

“It’s pride. If I become the crown prince of a country and put all my effort into one external appearance, what will I become? Go now. Your reward will be given to you tomorrow.”

Compensation. The moment Yongwoon got up from his seat, bowed his head, and put strength into his feet, the prince’s voice was heard from behind him.

“I hope you find that freedom.”

For a moment, Yong-un stopped walking. A question appeared on the prince’s face, and Yong-un looked up at the sky and asked him.

“Why does Your Highness the Crown Prince want to put Jianghu under his feet?”

The prince answered immediately.

“How can I, as the emperor, just watch hooligans set up shop in my land? What a foolish question.”

“…You said you couldn’t give me freedom.”

The moon rose indifferently and coldly. The lake illuminated by moonlight and the quietly floating boats were all flowing quietly.

Yongun turned his head and looked at the prince. Yongun’s face, illuminated by the moonlight, looked even brighter.

“Gangho is a free place. That is why it is a place for small people to be.”

Their eyes crossed, taking in each other’s gaze instead of the scenery.

“A person cannot give what he does not have.”

Yongun jumped from the small boat and flew out of the lake. The prince watched his back without saying a word and laughed in vain.

“Are you crazy?”

This is extremely rude. It would not be strange if you cut off my head right now.

“Do you dare say that the Crown Prince has no freedom?”

But even so, the prince did not catch Yongun. The prince, leaning back on the small boat, stared blankly at the moonlit night.

The reason I was interested in Yongwoon. Everything I said was true.

“Did you end up seeing the same thing?”

The prince chuckled. Neither the Four Heavenly Kings nor the beautiful lake below interested him.

The prince muttered while looking at the quietly rising moon.

“Freedom, freedom…”
