Back to the Murim League (7)
The final hearing with Bonggong and the elders came to an end.
In reality, it was more like a meeting than a hearing. So many things had happened in the central plains, and the dynamics and trends between forces had changed so much that the Murim Alliance had to discuss how things would proceed in the future.
Of course, it wasn’t like that from the beginning.
It was not easy to interrogate the Emperor who saved the Emperor from foreign enemies and was even given the Imperial Sword by the master of the Empire. If this matter reached the emperor’s ears, public opinion toward the Murim Alliance could have worsened.
The public opinion of Baekdo Martial Arts and the public opinion formed by those who are not Baekdo Martial Artists. There must be good coordination in between.
Nevertheless, the ones who strongly attacked Yeonwi were Namgungin, the head of the Namgung family, and several elders from the old faction. Among the elders who held positions of elders rather than public servants, there were some who had stubborn personalities, and to such people, the treacherous behavior of the eldest son from a prestigious Baekdo family was unforgivable.
There were meetings, but there was also a lot of aggressive language appropriate for a hearing. It was the same today, the last hearing.
However, all of those attacks fell before the actions of Sunwoo, Jongnam Jangmun.
“I’ve had a hard time holding back after hearing your stories, but I can’t stand it any longer today.”
“What do you mean?”
“I cannot applaud the actions of the Yeon So-hyeop, or the Yeon Dae-hyeop, who used straw and jumped into the fiery pit of black swords, but you are pointing fingers by citing etiquette and history. I am truly curious about your mental state.”
Namgung-in reacted sharply.
“Jongnam Jang Mun-in, please be careful of your words. Everyone gathered here is the owner of the group. “They are all wise and knowledgeable people, so how can Jongnam Jang Mun-in insult them?”
“A dead person cannot be insulted even if he wants to.”
“what?”
“While the elders here were looking back and clearing their throats, Yeon Daehyup led the strong men of the white and black islands and came to save Jongnam, who was almost annihilated.”
Namgung-in and some of the Jangmun-in cleared their throats.
“The war that took place on Mt. Jongnam was truly unfortunate and sad. But just because of that one thing….”
“Do you really think that Bondo is supporting him because the head of the Nangong family saved Jong Nam-san?”
“…?!”
“What happened to our Jongnam could also happen to the leaders here.”
“…!”
“If you think that my clan is safe and free from such threats, you are greatly mistaken. “The leaders gathered here may not be able to feel it because they are looking at the world from a narrow perspective, but those on the front lines are keenly aware of the fact that the power and cruelty of the enemy is unprecedented.”
“Jangmun-in!”
“Look at what Yeon Daehyup has done since coming into the world at such a young age. “In my youth, which cannot be exchanged for a thousand gold, I risk my life several times to defeat my enemies just to save the world.”
“….”
“Is it such a big problem that he turned to the dark path? It’s not because I hate the white sword, it’s because the white sword and the black sword join forces to fight against external enemies. Are you sure you can’t read even a penny of that intention?”
“Your words are so…!”
“Shame on you!”
“profit!”
“Everyone here knows that the law is important! But it seems that less than a handful of people know that there are things more important than laws! If you want to criticize his actions as apostasy, tell this person! “What were you doing while the sect was in such dire straits and your disciples were dying?”
Sunwoo’s words overwhelmed the audience.
The cry of a giant who felt with his own skin the reality that he realized through that personal experience filled with blood and tears was so powerful that even the power of martial arts could not deal with it.
“In order to interpret a phenomenon, we must first understand the cause, not just look at the results! “How can it not be deplorable that people who have no idea what kind of person he is, why he made that choice, what his past is, or what his purpose is are busy biting him in this narrow conference hall!”
“….”
“Half of the people here would have been shedding tears of blood if the Yeon Daehyup had not hunted down the agents of the Three Religions and defeated the enemy commanders over the past few years! And in preparation for more bloody tears to come, he must have been sharpening his sword to take revenge on those bastards!”
“….”
“What is the fault of Yeonga-ju? How on earth can you harass someone by holding a hearing just because they made a big mistake? “The merits of the Yeon clan, who personally went to the imperial palace to save His Majesty and contributed to the world, cannot be pointed at, even if they are traitors!”
“That remark! “You know there is clearly a problem!”
“At least you shouldn’t be like that! Are you really criticizing his actions for being wrong? Or are you creating this mess just to disparage him?! “What is scary and what is strange?”
“I will not tolerate any more insults!”
“If you feel my words are an insult, why don’t you take all the prosecutors from Namgung and go to Saeoe and have a fight with them!”
“This guy is real!”
bang!
The conversation between the two was cut off with a harsh roar.
Jump!
The public ambassador who broke the stone table retrieved his fist.
“Calm down your excitement.”
His voice was calm, but his actions were not. Sun-woo and Namgoong-in only glared at each other and huffed, unable to open their mouths anymore due to the extreme behavior that was unbecoming of a public ambassador.
The ambassador nodded and said.
“Jongnam Jang Munin’s words are correct.”
Namgoongin rolled his eyes.
“Ambassador!”
“And I can fully understand the concerns and lamentations of the head of the Namgung family and some of the elders.”
Sunwoo’s eyes trembled slightly.
Ambassador Gong said with a sigh.
“Dae-su Yeon, or Yeon Ho-jeong Sobu-ju’s arbitrary act of transferring, deserves to be criticized. “Moreover, since the decision was made without even informing one’s relatives, this is clearly a great disloyalty.”
Yeonwi closed her eyes.
He had a lot to say. But he didn’t open his mouth until the end.
Because I knew it was better not to do that. For the sake of my family and my children, it was better to remain silent even though I was frustrated right now.
“But many of you here have seen and know the merits and passion of Sobuju Yeonhojeong. As Sunwoo Jang Mun-in said, he is a confidant who has never drawn his sword in private.”
Namgung-in sighed and said.
“It is certainly true that he has made a great contribution. However, becoming a disciple of Mukryongbuju at such a confusing moment can be said to be an act that shakes the very foundation of Baekdo martial arts.”
“Binseung thinks that a fruit is a fruit, but it is a fruit that can be understood.”
“Ambassador! This is something that should never be overlooked. Wouldn’t you have been shocked by the transfer of a talented person who made great contributions to me? “Everyone here must have been shocked and worried!”
“….”
“But if you turn a blind eye to the act and move on, you will leave a bad precedent. In the future, if there are traitors who claim that they silently left the world for the sake of the world, will you say that you will forgive them because they have accomplished so much back then?”
“Namgoong family.”
“For those of you here, we must not only think about the present. These are the people who must come up with policies that can accommodate not only the present but also the future. “If we get over such bad behavior, in the future the people of the world will…!”
It was then.
“I think they will judge it as an unprecedentedly great move.”
Squeak.
The door to the conference room opened and Mo Yong-gun appeared.
The public ambassador’s eyes widened.
“Huh, aren’t you the head of the Moyong family?”
Prince Moyong took control.
“It’s been a long time since I last greeted you. I contacted the military separately and had a meeting, but I also had a lot to think about, so I only showed up now. “Please forgive me with a generous heart.”
Everyone was surprised by the sudden appearance of Prince Moyong.
Even Zhuge Wenhu, who had been silent, was surprised. I never thought he would appear here today. Wasn’t he the one who said he wouldn’t attend the hearing in the first place, saying he didn’t want to discuss a case he didn’t personally experience?
Prince Mo Yong said while looking at Zhuge Wenhu.
“I heard directly from the military about how the world was going. “I thought it would be better not to come forward because I had not experienced it myself, but I thought it would be better to add something, so I attended, albeit belatedly.”
“I guess so.”
The public ambassador pointed to an empty seat.
“For now, don’t just stand there, sit down.”
“yes.”
Mo Yong-gun sat down and looked around the audience.
Everyone’s eyes were naturally focused on him.
It wasn’t because I was a late attendee. Prince Mo Yong’s empty prayers were like those of a person who had not learned martial arts, but at the same time, they had a strange power that made it impossible to take your eyes off them.
In fact, not many people noticed the change in Moyong’s prayers, which became more and more disorganized. This was because the air in the conference room was so overheated.
“Huh.”
The public ambassador said with an admiring look on his face.
“It looks like the closing of the California State Library was very successful. “This is a very impressive change.”
As expected, I read it.
Moyong said with a smile.
“I just let go of my worries and obsessions.”
“Anguish and obsession. “It is something we must experience as we live in this world, and at the same time, it is something we must try to let go of throughout our lives.”
The public ambassador chuckled.
“If you have achieved something like that, you can understand the change in Moyong Family. It seems that a great legend will soon rise in the Moyong family.”
“That’s too much praise.”
The audience was greatly shocked by the Ambassador’s words.
A great legend had no other meaning. It meant no drama.
If the Gonggong Ambassador, who is recognized as the best among the Bonggong gathered here, said so, then Moyonggun’s growth must have been truly remarkable.
“It’s not something I should reveal later, but I don’t think this is the place to talk about myself.”
“Hehehe.”
“Also, I wonder if I can come out of nowhere and say this, but I don’t think we should catch Yeonhojeong Sobuju’s treacherous actions.”
Namgung-in looked at Prince Moyong in disbelief.
“Moyonggaju!”
“Yeonhojeong Sobuju is the embodiment of the medical association.”
“…!”
“I will be honest here. I was jealous of Yeonhojeong Sobuju’s outstanding abilities. “I am such an ugly person that I feel jealous of a young man who is my son’s age, but at the same time, Sobuju Yeonhojeong is outstanding.”
Prince Moyong shook his head.
“It was my fault. “I was foolish.”
“Moyonggaju.”
“His actions themselves were clearly wrong, but as Jongnam Jang Mun-in said, if it were not for him, the world would have become a sea of fire. “I saved the martial arts not once, but several times, so why should I write a book just because I made a drastic decision for the sake of the world?”
“How can you say that!”
“Certainly, if we oppress Yeonhojeong Sobuju and Yeongaju here, we will not be okay either.”
“…?!”
Prince Moyong smiled at Yeonwi.
“Yeon Jiaju is a great knight who was given the imperial sword by His Majesty the Emperor. “The Yeon clan’s contribution is great, and if His Majesty the Emperor recognized it, we must also readily acknowledge it.”
The emperor’s anger may fall.
Mo Yong-gun’s meaning was clear. Even if the emperor was powerless, considering his legitimacy and status, the Baekdo martial arts group could not help but care about the emperor.
“The feat achieved by Yeonga must be recognized. That is very natural. If we fight over something like this, won’t only our enemies like it?”
Namgung-in gritted his teeth.
At that time, Prince Moyong continued speaking.
“There are a lot of eyes watching, so it wouldn’t be right to just ignore it. “Many of our supporters are watching our decision.”
“What do you want to do?”
“Well, I’ve never thought about it, but…”
Moyong said, tilting his head.
“First of all, I wonder what the extent of the reduction or erasure of Yeonga’s right to speak and authority would be.”
