Taejonbirok Volume 3 Episode 12

Chapter 20 – The Journey of the Right Sword (4)

He is a swordsman with unparalleled skill in the world, and he has proven that his swordsmanship has reached the pinnacle with his famous ten-year martial arts record.

Although his son, Cheokmageom Wisanho, was renowned as the best swordsman and the best swordsman in the world, he was still like a firefly in front of the sun in front of the name of Jeonghyeopgeom Wi Jeonghan.

Even though Guinangnang was the daughter of the Haomen Lord and the head of the Haomen Gaebong branch, she was not someone who could be treated with such a background. At the very least, her father, the Haomen Lord, had to come in person to be treated with respect.

“It is an honor that His Majesty the Conqueror has come to visit.”

Gwinangnang bowed his head politely.

First, I had to lower my posture.

Although Jeonghyeopgeom was a swordsman full of agreement, he was more fearsome than Madou to those who went against the agreement.

“Nice to meet you.”

“What brings you here?”

“Ah, that’s me…….”

Wi Jeong-han stuttered, slightly embarrassed.

If a man with a wicked look called Haomun appeared, I was going to grab him by the collar and shout, "Where did my son go?" But when a woman young enough to be my daughter appeared, I was at a loss as to what to say first.

“It’s nothing else…….”

As Wi Jeong-han continued to babble, Han Sang-ah, who had been glaring at him with sharp eyes, pushed him away.

“Get out of the way!”

“Hey!”

Han Sang-ah seemed frustrated and harassed Wi Jeong-han.

“I’m so busy, why do you keep stuttering? Why do you keep stuttering!”

“No, Ivory. That’s not me…….”

“It’s noisy!”

"yes."

Han Sang-ah turned her head and looked at Gwi Nang-nang.

Guinangnang, who was watching in bewilderment that the world's best swordsman, Wei Zhenghan, was being treated like a neighborhood uncle, lowered her head slightly in embarrassment when Han Sangah's gaze turned to her.

Because my experience and learning were not in vain, I quickly figured out who the real power here was.

“Are you the person in charge, Young Lady?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“Nothing else… I came here to find my son who sent the letter.”

Gwinangnang sighed. Fortunately, it was something she had expected.

“Are you talking about Prince Wei Yanhu?”

"is it so."

“If it is Prince Wei Yanhu, he has just gone to the Holy Water Palace. He should have arrived by now.”

“Seongsujang?”

“This is a doctor in Hubei.”

Han Sang-ah frowned.

“Why do you go to the doctor?”

Gwinangnang shook her head.

“We don’t know that much. All we know is that Prince Wei Yanhu went to the Chengshuijang in Hubei. Before that, he was at Hanrim Daejangwon.”

“Hanrim University Honors?”

“This is the school run by Mr. Moon Yu-hwan, a scholar of Samjeol University. He was there until recently.”

“A school? Yeonho went to the school?”

Han Sang-ah opened her eyes wide as if she couldn't believe it at all. The Wi Yeon-ho she knew would have died if he had died, and he wouldn't have gone to the academy to study.

“Anyway, he was there until recently, but now he has gone to the holy water temple.”

Han Sang-ah nodded.

Whatever the situation was, that was the case and there was nothing more to ask.

At that moment, Wi Jeong-han took a step forward and asked.

“How does your majesty know that?”

"yes?"

Wi Jeong-han's eyes were sunken low.

“My son is lazy by nature and would never contact you for any reason. I am asking how you know that a child like him stayed at Hanrimdaejangwon until recently and recently headed to Seongsujang.”

In that moment, a chill ran down Gwinangnang's spine.

Now, Wei Zhenghan was asking if she had been spying on Wei Yanhu. The answer was simple, but if Wei Zhenghan did not like the answer, he could not dare to guess what would happen.

The head of the gwi-nang-nang spun violently.

He had no idea how to respond. If the Wei Zheng judged that she had a purpose and was spying on him, Gui Nangnang might not be able to avoid disaster today.

To say that he was a chivalrous man meant, in other words, that he had made countless demons fall to the tip of his sword. There was no one among those who were called chivalrous men who did not have a poisonous mind.

"that……."

“You’d better answer straight away.”

The oppressive force of the Wei Dynasty weighed on Gwi Nang Nang. It was difficult to breathe.

Unlike the pressure she had felt from Wi Yeon-ho in the past, she felt a strong force weighing her down.

Taaak!

At that moment, a loud noise spread and Wi Jeong-han jumped up from his spot.

“Kwaaak!”

Han Sang-ah grabbed Wi Jeong-han's ear and pulled him backwards.

“Ivory! It hurts! I told you it hurts!”

“You get out of the way. How many times do I have to tell you not to step forward!”

“No, that’s not what I mean!”

“It’s noisy!”

The wise man is dead.

Han Sang-ah looked at the man with a pitiful expression and clicked her tongue.

“If a mature woman knows the actions of a grown man, then it’s obvious. Why are you asking questions?”

"yes?"

Gwinangnang asked again without realizing it.

Then, Han Sang-ah held Gwi-nang-nang's hand tightly with a face that had become much softer.

“So, our era name is in Hubei?”

“Oh, yes! That’s right.”

“Okay. Then can you tell me exactly where the Hubei Holy Water Market is? It’s our first time in Hubei, so it’s hard to find it just by hearing the word Hubei.”

“Yes, it’s not that difficult. But…….”

“What's the problem?”

“I don’t know how long Wi Yeon-ho So-hyeop will stay at Seongsujang. He didn’t stay at Hanrim Daejangwon for that long either.”

Han Sang-ah tilted her head.

What does that have to do with anything?

“If you’re unlucky, the Wiyeonho clan might leave Seongsujang on your way there. Then, you’ll end up walking around Seongsujang in vain.”

Wi Jeong-han suddenly stepped forward.

“Then shouldn’t we just ask where the holy water market went?”

“If that’s possible, that’s great, but if the above-mentioned So-hyeop leaves the Holy Land without telling us where he’s going… it won’t be easy to find him in that vast Hubei province.”

Wi Jeong-han, having spent some time in the world of martial arts, understood what Gwinangnang's words meant.

“So, if we want to know exactly where Hoa went, we need to borrow information from Haomen?”

“That’s not what I’m saying. If it’s Guangdongwei, they’ll find it someday. But Haomen can help you shorten that time, even if only a little.”

“In what way?”

“If our informant accompanies you and reports to you the whereabouts of Prince Wi Yeon-ho, there will be no chance of your path being derailed.”

Wi Jeong-han looked at Gwinangnang quietly.

“What’s the price?”

“I don’t want that. I just want you to remember that Haomen tried to help Guangdongwei.”

Wi Jeong-han smiled.

The idea was that since I wouldn't be receiving any money, I should think of it as a debt.

I don't know about others, but for someone of high status, that small debt could be worth hundreds of gold crowns.

'You're smart and quick to judge situations. And you're so confident in front of me… '

Although he looked nervous and had a bad complexion, I quite liked the way he hid his trembling legs and got what he wanted.

“What is your name?”

“I am Mo San-a. People in the world call me Guinangnang.”

“Mo(毛)……. I heard that Hao Wenzhou has that surname?”

“You are my father.”

Wi Jeong-han nodded.

“I like you, not Haomun. I will consider myself a benefactor to my young lady. I will repay this favor to you in the future, as long as it is not against the law and morality.”

Gwinangnang was taken aback by Wijeonghan's answer.

The favor is granted, but only to her work, not to Haomun. Also, no request can be granted if it goes against the proper way of life and morality.

I tried to pay off my debt, but there were too many conditions attached.

'Still, to this extent… … .'

It was none other than the words of Jeong Hyo-geom, Wi Jeong-han.

Even though there were conditions attached, his words were worth a thousand pieces of gold.

It could be seen that a sufficiently large profit was made.

“I am grateful for the grace of the Great Hero.”

“I am in a position of grace. Okay. Okay, who will guide us?”

At that time, Han Sang-ah clicked her tongue as if she felt sorry.

“Tsk tsk tsk.”

When Han Sang-ah clicked her tongue, Wi Jeong-han unconsciously pushed his throat in.

“Why are you doing that again?”

“Don’t you have any clue?”

“What are you noticing again…….”

“Oh my, how did I end up getting involved with a guy like that.”

Wi Jeong-han became infinitely smaller without even knowing English.

Han Sang-ah didn't pay any attention to Wi Jeong-han and approached Gwi Nang-nang again, holding her hand tightly.

“Okay, how old are you?”

“Yes? I’m twenty-six now.”

Han Sang-ah frowned for a moment, then smiled brightly and spoke again.

“Yeah, are both your parents doing well?”

“My father is healthy, but my mother passed away when I was young.”

“You must have had a hard time. It’s okay. In this day and age, there’s no reason for something like that to be a flaw.”

Gwinangnang looked embarrassed and was dripping with cold sweat.

What the heck is going on here?

“Hey, what are you doing?”

Wi Jeong-han was so flustered that he tried to stop Han Sang-ah. However, when Han Sang-ah's eyes became sharp, he stepped back without saying a word and closed his eyes tightly.

“Yeah. You look weak. Do you think you can make it to Hubei?”

"yes?"

Gwinangnang was embarrassed and asked back, but Han Sang-ah was stubborn.

“I appreciate your guidance, but it’ll be a long way for you to handle.”

Gwinangnang, who was about to shout, “What nonsense are you talking about?” closed his mouth and rolled his head.

Guangdongwei.

Although it was not a well-known sect among the public, it was a sect that was on the rise with just the fame of Jeonghyeop Sword Wi Jeong-han and Cheokma Sword Wi San-ho.

'There's a tiger there.'

Although he had a strange appearance, his martial arts were real. No matter how much Wisanho was called the greatest of the latter, he could not compare to Wiyeonho's martial arts.

If done well, Guangdong Wei Family was a place that could be considered not only one of the five greatest families in the world, but also the greatest family in the world twenty years from now.

There was no way it would be a loss to make a connection with such a Kwangdong Wei family. The calculating Guinangnang smiled brightly.

“Don’t worry, Mother. I’m still strong. I’ll be ready soon, so just wait a little.”

Gwinangnang bowed in greeting and hurriedly left the room.

Wi Jeong-han approached Han Sang-ah, who was looking at the pretty girl with a happy smile.

“Ivory, I think that’s a bit too much. In my opinion, that woman doesn’t seem to have any particular feelings for Yeonho…….”

Han Sang-ah looked at Wi Jeong-han with pitiful eyes.

“Do you think Yeonho will be able to get married?”

"……no."

Wi Jeong-han answered honestly.

It was impossible for Wi Yeon-ho, who spent his entire life rolling around at home, to get a woman. He could have forced her into marriage, but that was impossible. It would have been like making another man's child a widow.

“It wasn’t something to worry about when it wasn’t there, but now that Yeonho has returned, it’s time to start preparing. I’m old enough!”

“But that bastard…….”

“If you have even a little bit of affection, you can connect them.”

Wi Jeong-han became a mute who had eaten honey.

“If you don’t hate it, you’ll get attached to it if you see it often, and if you move around with your family, you’ll naturally start to feel jealous… There’s a good chance. It’s a shame that it’s a little old, but it’s okay because it’s smart and pretty. My lazy and pitiful child, so if it weren’t for that smart child, I wouldn’t be able to handle it.”

Wi Jeong-han looked at Han Sang-ah with trembling eyes.

Mother was strong.

And after a while, a woman who didn't know anything opened the door and came in, preparing her luggage. Wi Jeong-han tightly closed his eyes as he looked at the two women smiling brightly at each other.

My heart ached as I thought of Wei Yanho having to take care of both of them.

Women have always been something to be feared by men.
