Chapter 835

Episode 835Seeds of Conflict (1)

Zhuge Munho, who was returning to the Military Department, suddenly saw four people standing at the front gate of the Military Department.

“Ambassador. And…”

Zhuge Wenhu smiled.

“Lord Yeonga.”

The other two were warriors of the Hwaryongdan who followed in the name of surveillance.

The public ambassador asked directly.

“Did your conversation with the Moyong family go well?”

“Yes that’s right.” Sёarch* The Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“What did you say?”

It was a voice that did not feel relaxed, unlike a public ambassador.

“Go in and talk.”

Just like that, the three people entered Zhuge Wenhu’s office.

After a while.

“…huh.”

The public ambassador shook his head.

“Gangseo Union… Moyong Family Head?”

“yes.”

Yeonwi said calmly.

“Since these two discerning people looked at the head of the Moyong family like that, it seems like the person has definitely changed.”

Zhuge Wenhu asked.

“What did you think, Lord Yeonga?”

“It’s hard to know the person’s sincerity because we haven’t had a deep conversation. But at least I could tell that he was much different than before.”

“As expected.”

Yeonwi tilted his head.

“I know that the military’s insight and handling of tasks are better than anyone else’s, but there are some things that an ordinary person like me cannot understand.”

“That’s too much praise. “What are you curious about?”

“Is it okay to send him away like this?”

Ambassador Gong Gong also looked at Zhuge Munhao with some concern and curiosity.

In fact, Moyonggun’s unilateral departure was a violation of the law. Of course, Bong-gong’s authority was strong and he could join forces without permission from his superiors in case of emergency, but this time the case was different.

Although he has changed greatly as a person by admitting his past mistakes, the fact that he has been gathering his strength in Gangseo without anyone knowing remains the same.

Of course, the organization’s mindset is to develop secret forces by clan or family. There is no need to get permission from other organizations or worry about them.

The problem is that the power gathered by Prince Moyong is so significant that it affects the entire country.

It was not even a single Sega organization, but a concentrated force of countless small and medium-sized sects and top marks. Their actual military power cannot be compared to the Murim Alliance or the Mukryongbu, but it is not a force that can be ignored.

As a member of the Murim League and the Bonggong, the fact that they arbitrarily formed an alliance without obtaining permission from the leadership is a problem in itself. Of course, Moyong-gun had to be detained, and even though it may have been frustrating, a hearing should have been held like the joint committee.

“Common sense dictates that we should not have just let it go.”

“exactly.”

“What you two said is correct. Even if the Mo Yong family’s entire force was sent to the Murim Alliance and held half of them hostage, they should not have been let go.”

In fact, even if I knew that Prince Moyong would not betray me, it should not have been like this. Because this was a matter of procedure.

“But…”

Zhuge Wenhu closed his eyes.

When I thought of Moyong’s face smiling and turning his back, my mood calmed down.

“Even if we had captured him, Moyongaju would never have been upset. He probably knows that the Murim League is that kind of organization, and it actually makes sense. Still, the reason I tried to leave secretly at dawn was probably to avoid unnecessary conflict.”

“I think so too.”

“It didn’t seem like a good idea to this foolish soldier to catch him there.”

“What do you mean?”

Zhuge Munho opened his eyes again.

His eyes were shining with strange sadness and clear wisdom.

“It may be an incongruous analogy, but I think there are moments when parents must silently support their children’s decision to become a monk, even if they feel anxious and worried.”

“….”

“For the head of the Moyong family, the Murim League was a lifelong dream to acquire, a home, and at the same time, a parent.”

“Parents…”

“Yes, that’s right. Of course, I did something beyond my authority. “Even if the Murim Maeng holds Mo Yong Sega hostage, and even if we secure his brother Mo Yong Dae Su, he may have the option of betraying the Murim by abandoning his family and settling in a new place.”

Excessive distrust? Not like that.

Prince Moyong said. The battle for the head of the family of the Moyong family is a life-or-death battle of madness that must be won by putting a sword against one’s own blood relatives.

Since he is a person who gained the position of head of the family by killing his own blood relatives, he might consider the option of betraying the entire family, even if it is a low probability.

“The military must treat everyone without discrimination. It is not just a military virtue. “Both the great master and Lord Yeonga are public servants, so I think we should be certain about that part.”

“….”

“In other words, I gave preferential treatment to the head of the Moyong family. Arbitrarily.”

The public ambassador sighed.

“As I said before, an inflexible law is bound to break down.”

“you’re right. Still, it was my fault for pretending not to have seen Moyongaju’s departure. “Nothing can be certain, so if the Moyong family truly betrays me, I may have to resign from my military position and spend the rest of my life imprisoned.”

“Military.”

“But I did it anyway. “Because of a intuition that cannot be explained with logic and no one can convince.”

Zhuge Wenhu smiled bitterly.

“I am prepared to be criticized. I am prepared for the worst. However, I sincerely felt that the head of the Moyong family should not be held captive.”

Ambassador Gong Gong seemed to know Zhuge Mun-ho’s feelings.

In fact, it was Ambassador Gong Gong, not Zhuge Mun-ho, who most felt the change in Prince Moyong here.

There is no need for words for an unmanned person. With just the swords and fists aimed at each other, the intense collision alone is enough to read the other person’s heart and intentions to be considered a true warrior.

Ambassador Gong Gong felt a fundamental change in Moyong-gun during that short and violent match.

A gentle and elegant change that cannot be explained in words.

“By judging calmly.”

Ambassador Gong Gong and Zhuge Wenhu looked at Yan Wei.

Yeonwi said in a calm voice.

“There is absolutely no possibility that the Moyong family will betray us and abuse the Gangseo Alliance.”

“I think so too, but is there a reason why you are so sure?”

“There are a lot of things I don’t know about the Moyong family, but there are two things I am sure of.”

“What is?”

“Affection for the Murim Alliance and blind hatred for the Three Religions.”

Zhuge Wenhu’s eyes sparkled.

He recalled what Mo Yong-gun said to Ambassador Gong after the meeting was over.

‘Please take good care of the Murim Alliance.’

From those words, I could feel Mo Yong-gun’s deep affection and lingering regret that suddenly raised his head even though he had abandoned it.

In fact, Prince Moyong even said that he would only help the Murim Alliance grow bigger and not attack them. Although he said it with a smile, the sincerity in his voice was so deep that anyone could feel it.

‘Then what about the three schools?’

There is no need to even recall Moyong’s remarks in that regard. His hatred for the three religions is probably the greatest in this vast central plain.

Yeonwi said.

“It is said that you may know the inside of ten roads, but you do not know the inside of a person of one road. However, even if you don’t know the inside of a person, it is not difficult to analyze their behavior at least if you know what that person thinks is important.”

Zhuge Wenhu said with a smile.

“What you’re saying sounds like a nobleman.”

Yeonwi smiled as if embarrassed.

“Thanks to him, my perspective on the world has improved a little. “Compared to the military, it would be like reciting a text in front of Confucius.”

“Absolutely not. In any case, the head of the Yeon family is not confident that the head of the Moyong family will not betray, but he is saying that it is not possible at all.”

“exactly. Besides, he…”

Yeonwi looked down at the table for a moment and laughed.

“Because at least he is a great man who takes care of his people.”

I am merciless towards my enemies, but I will never tolerate harm to my people.

In that respect, it is very similar to Yeonhojeong. Of course, there were differences in the way he treated others, but he never betrayed the people within the fence.

The public ambassador let out a low voice of displeasure. The four letters, Amitabha Buddha (阿彌陀佛), contained concern and encouragement for Mo Yong-gun.

“Actually, what I’m worried about is not the issue of my treatment. Like Yeongaju, I also know that Moyonggaju will never betray me. “We have to send an envoy soon.”

“What are you worried about?”

“The biggest worry is….”

Zhuge Wenhu continued, sighing.

“I am the leader.”

“…!”

The faces of the public ambassador and the Yeonwi became serious.

“As I said before, I am opposed to electing a leader through an election held by all factions.”

“How is that so?”

“It will take at least half a year just to deliver election votes to all factions in this large land mass. “Even if we can go that far, who can guarantee that the votes are genuine?”

“What do you mean by authenticity?”

“It means that the votes may be manipulated.”

In essence, elections are a law in which votes are divided according to individual interests.

However, Zhuge Liang did not intend to suppress individual freedom. The real problem was the intervention of a third party.

I have heard that the three great religions have disappeared from the central plains, but there are probably some who are working in secret without revealing anything. Even if that is not the case, there is a high risk that Sejak will be dispatched again when the election proceeds.

In other words, what Zhuge Mun-ho was worried about was the situation where individual freedom was being violated.

“We did not officially spread the word that the leader would be elected through elections. Furthermore, we were unable to establish a system or organization that would actually ensure an individual’s vote.”

“Hmm.”

“If it were a time of peace, we would have taken our time and proceeded calmly, but in this situation where the three religions are active, it is impossible to resolve matters one by one. “It doesn’t make sense to leave the position of leader empty.”

“That’s right.”

Zhuge Wenhu said while looking at the public ambassador.

“Fortunately, there is a leader of the group recognized by all of Moorim.”

“hmm?”

“We will have to consult with the feudal lords and obtain the consent of the Gangseo Alliance as well as various factions… but I think that if he steps forward, the Murim Alliance will be able to find stability quickly.”

The public ambassador’s eyes wavered.

“Military?”

“It’s an exhibition now. Although it is close to a ceasefire, it cannot be considered simply a ceasefire. “It’s not unusual for something to happen at any time.”

“Sir, listen to me.”

“This is a moment when everyone needs to make a decision. Honestly, what Moyongaju said is right. “There are many factions that have suffered damage due to lackluster meetings, and we cannot afford to make such a mistake again.”

“No matter how much it is….”

“There is no perfect policy or politics in the world. Depending on the situation and social atmosphere, there are times when it is better to be coercive and other times, it is better to be relaxed. “There are times when only efficiency should be considered, and there are times when stability should be pursued before efficiency, even if everyone suffers losses.”

“….”

“If you feel burdened, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to just act as the first leader until this war is over.”

The public ambassador said while looking at the Yeonwi.

“Lord Yeonga, please say something too. How much is this?…”

“I’m sorry for interrupting you, but can I ask the Ambassador just one thing?”

“…Tell me.”

“Why didn’t you come up?”

“What do you mean?”

“Why did you not come to the light?”

“…!”

The ambassador’s face hardened.
