68 – In the Yan Dynasty

The people in the audience reacted differently to my introduction.

First of all, the old man bowed down with obvious goodwill. Curiosity shone in the eyes of the old man who finished the greeting in moderation. He knew at once that the reason he was here was to see Na Hee-dan.

The elderly man’s greetings were relaxed. His eyes also looked at me with curiosity, but rather than trying to find out who I was in detail, what did he do to seduce Hyung-ga? I had a strong feeling It’s not just me, it’s confirmed that it’s not just a feeling, it’s a fact from the way he checks the hyungga.

And the last young man twitched his neck dryly and treated it coldly. The young man, who didn’t seem particularly interested in me, rather focused more on Yeo Hong-seong, who was behind me. It was too cold and sharp to be romantic love.

As I was looking at the reactions of various characters, Hyungga came out of nowhere and stood next to the old man.

“Here, Mr. Zhen Guang, as I sent in the letter before, was the one who took care of me when I was staying in Yan for a while, but he is now a partner of Yan Jidan.”

“I’ve heard a lot about it. He accepted Jing Jia as a guest for a while.”

“Heh heh, Hyeong-gyeong is an extraordinary person, so I really enjoyed being with him.”

Jeon-gwang is called Hyeong-gyeong with the meaning of respect for Hyeong-ga.

He was a person called the Cheo-sa of Tak, and was a well-known scholar and powerful member of the ruling family within the Yan Dynasty.

Tak was a place I knew well. Because the hometown of Liu Bei, the protagonist of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, was that Tak. Jeon Gwang was a strong family who settled there and had several personal connections, including the Taebu Guk-guk whom I had previously met in the country of Jo.

Seonbi, who does not leave Tak and lives buried in the early night, was called Cheosa (處士), but before he knew it, Hyungga brought him to the precepts and placed him as an advisor to the upper ranks.

‘Since then, the power of the upper ranks has grown rapidly in the Yan Dynasty.’

Jingga isn’t very resourceful either, but it’s not that difficult to expand your power against the existing upper tiers that have preoccupied vested interests. The light did it.

‘He’s an outstanding talent.’

At least in terms of Sangjae, it can be said that he is on the same level as the craftsman who was recommended by Sinreung-gun.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen him today, but I know that Mr. Jeon Kwang is also an unusual person. I’d like to set up a date in the future and have a few conversations with him.”

“That’s exactly what I want to ask you. I’ll gladly wait for that day.”

After ending the conversation with Jeon Guang, Jing Jia introduced me to the next person.

“This person is a high-ranking person. He’s a jokester, and he’s a friend who does everything okay no matter what you entrust him with.”

“Ah, I’ve heard a lot about the late musician.”

“Hmm, I’m a little worried because it’s what Jingga said, but looking at Gongja’s face, it doesn’t seem like a bad thing.”

“Sure, if anyone hears it, they’ll know what I’m talking about.”

“Huh? Wasn’t it?”

“…Are you going to play another sword fight after a long time?”

I watched in silence as the conversation flowed over to those two in an instant. It is truly unpredictable to see them falling into their own world without a chance to intervene.

“Listen, isn’t Young master in trouble? Let me introduce you to my last friend.”

“Hey, Mr. Go, you’re lucky.”

“You are.”

Hyeong-ga and Ko Jeom-ri seem to have quite an age difference, but when they treat each other, it really felt like they were arguing with friends the same age as they were 10 years old. It must be that friendly.

Jingjia put his arm on the shoulder of the young man who hadn’t said a word and didn’t even tell him his name.

“This friend here is anonymous, but he doesn’t have a name. Of course, we don’t know either. The reason he didn’t reveal his name was because he didn’t have a name to disclose, so I hope it’s not too rude.”

“Everyone has a story. I understand.”

“By the way, I worked as a butcher before, but we call each other a dog butcher, right? I actually caught dogs, and in other words…”

“Young master.”

The young man who hadn’t said a word cut off his brother’s words by opening his mouth for the first time.

Even as he called me, his eyes contained only Yeo Hongseong.

“Is that person an escort for Young master?”

“It’s not an escort.”

“Then it doesn’t matter if you fight…”

“Alas! You dog butcher!”

Pahak!

Go Jeom-ri’s palm coolly slapped the back of the young man’s head.

The back of his head was so powerful that his head was bent down, but Moo-myeong raised his head back to normal without getting angry. Gao Jianli bent his waist together as he pressed down the cotton ball that was caressing the tingling back of his head with his hand.

“Forgive me for the rudeness, Young master and Yeo Hyeop. All this butcher has learned is how to use a sword.”

Maybe it was because the situation unfolded so swiftly, I didn’t really think about it. However, her womanhood might be different, so I looked back at her, but she shrugged her shoulders with a calm expression, as if her womanhood was not very different from mine.

“Wake up, the old musician. And the unknown. Isn’t this the kind of friendship between martial artists? It’s better. I’ll introduce you here, this is Yeo Hong-seong, my companion.”

I moved half a step to the side of her, and Hongseong greeted her in the familiar Jungwon manner.

“It’s Yeo Hongseong. Also, did you say you were unknown? I also want to compete with you, so I’ll make time later.”

“Thank you.”

Moo-myeong, who has a similar physique to Yeo Hong-seong, calmly expressed his gratitude, then silently bowed to me.

Gao Jian-li pounded my chest in frustration at what could have seemed arrogant. When I said it was okay as if I was comforting Gao Jianli, Gao Jianli said with emotion.

“I have heard that Young master of Yan was popular, even with insufficient knowledge, but the rumors are indeed true.”

“I am very grateful to the two people who helped Jing Jia and worked together in our guild.”

Gao Jianli and I were painting each other’s faces with gilding, asking whether I was grateful or not, whether I was more grateful.

“Pahahahaha! Look at that. Mr. Goh, just believe me. How generous our practitioners are. How can you not embrace them? Anyway, this Duntara and the dog butcher did not listen to this scholar’s words. Listen.”

“What? Ttantara? Huh, this bastard (落榜擧子) is bragging again. It’s been a long time since I’ve wanted to hit my axis.”

“Before I hit it with that shaft, my sword will cut it in half?”

“It’s a slap on the head. That half is enough, you crybaby.”

Crybaby? I can’t imagine Jingga crying.

When I looked at the person in question while imagining Jing-ga bursting into tears in my head, Jing-ga must have felt my gaze.

“Why are you talking about that right now! And, was I the only one who cried? You guys cried too!”

“At least I didn’t cry ugly like you did.”

“That’s right, well done, nameless.”

The trio of anti-medicine soldiers suddenly began pointing fingers at each other and repeating betrayal and cooperation.

Standing still, the other three, me, Yeo Hong-seong, and Jeon-gwang, intuited that the three of them were engaged in a three-way battle, saying that you would die and I would live.

“Well, Young master.”

“Yes?”

“Are all the people of Central Plain like this? I think the people I saw in Qi were different… Ah, it must be the characteristics of people in Yan. Young master, it may be different if you grew up in Zhao.”

Prevent Yeo Hong-seong from having a false perception of Yan in real time.

Since China is still divided into many countries, each country has its own unique culture. As that has eased little by little and exchanges between countries have taken place, many of them are spread as common sense to some extent, but as Yeo Hongseong came from the remote country of Yue, there was no such common sense.

After correcting Yeo Hong-seong’s misunderstanding, I next started to mediate the fight between the three.

No matter how unpredictable the trio was, the situation quickly calmed down as if they had kept the minimum awareness of the situation in their heads.

“Let’s move places. Why don’t we just talk here?”

“Ah, Young master. If you’re going to have a serious conversation, I’m going to fall out. I haven’t become a proper diner yet, and my head hurts a little from complicated things like that.”

Anyway, I wanted to hear from Jingga or Zhenguang how the internal affairs of Yan were going.

Since Hyung-ga, who was in charge of escorting me before, was already by my side, and there was no reason to keep Yeo Hong-seong on hold, I followed Yeo Hong-seong’s wishes.

“Then, can the late musician give you some guidance?”

“Of course. And please be comfortable with your words. It’s too much for a lowly musician.”

“Oh, I’m going too.”

When Yeo Hong-seong was said to be missing, Mumyeong-do also followed Go Jeom-ri.

Judging from the fact that the two of them had already started fighting, it seemed like they intended to have a fight before going to the dorm.

‘I think Yeo Hong-seong will win.’

Coming all the way here, I watched with my own eyes how incredibly strong Yeo Hong-seong was. This time, I learned that it is possible for a person to kill a running tiger by striking its head.

Nameless also looks quite strong, but to Yeo Hong-seong I saw….

‘There’s also a high point, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.’

After sending the three of them away, I headed further back to the office with Hyung-ga and Jeon-gwang.

Upon arriving at the place used as Jing Jia’s office, Jing Jia naturally gave away his seat and sat downstairs.

“So, how is Yeon Na-ra now?”
