Episode 196. Nasty Seeds (2)
So Yeon-sim said she had work to do and turned down the dance and went back.
Xu Liang sat in the gymnasium, deep in thought.
‘I’m not sure. But there’s no way such sensitive rumors will spread out of nowhere.’
Rumors broke out after Seo Liang returned to school as if he had waited. Even after just one night.
It takes some time for such rumors to creep in. But isn’t that too cynical?
‘If someone encouraged it, they would have prepared it in advance.’
And there are only five people in Protestantism who can make such preparations and have reasons to do so.
‘All candidates except me.’
Of course, there is a very high probability that it is Jin Kwan-yong or Kwan-pyeong. However, he did not rule out the possibility of another successor.
People never know when or how they will change. I’ve seen countless cases where people you never doubted suddenly betrayed you.
‘But I’m a little puzzled. I don’t know what they’re trying to do, but there are a lot of risks with this method.’
What if Seo Liang kills Chae Yeo-min as rumored?
In the fight of the gods, the demons have no choice but to remain silent. However, the eyes of the demons looking at Xi Liang will not be very nice. It is said that it is the headquarters of the bloody Mado Moorim, but Chae Yeo-min was too young.
This was also the reason why the demons had the lowest affinity for Hong Wi-moon. There was no physical evidence, but the demons knew that he was attacking the death penalty with a petty strategy.
However, as Soyeonsim said, it is not a big problem. What does age have to do with selecting a representative of the Pasoon who will open a new era? Public opinion is only public opinion, and cannot be a decisive move to overturn the game.
‘I’m going to get a bad stare. But that’s all. On the other hand, what if the identity of the person who leaked this rumor is exposed?’
Even when human standards are not applied, there is a degree, and the headwind that will blow at that time will be beyond imagination. There won’t be any controversy about the quality of the successor, but it’s clear that the majority of demons will turn their backs.
Cruelty is acceptable, but pettiness is not. At least that’s not what God would do.
Seo Liang shrugged.
“Nothing is certain at this time. No matter how much I think about it, the answer won’t come out.”
Xu Liang, who got up from his seat, suddenly felt the strong sunlight.
“Is it dawn already?”
It seemed that he was deeply troubled. enough to forget the passage of time.
“hello.”
Yeo Sang-rin walked from one side. Unlike yesterday, her appearance in clean white clothes was beautiful enough to make her eyes wander.
Seo Liang nodded.
“Did you sleep well?”
“yes.”
Yeo Sang-rin’s face looked very refreshed. Her first day was a little nervous, but after having some conversations with her Xu Liang, she seems to have regained her usual vivacity.
‘Honestly, I guess I was swearing at the lord of the Beast at the time too?’
I don’t remember well because it was such a tense situation, but I think they were talking about the twins’ bastards. Looking at that, this guy’s temperament is not normal.
“Anyway, you really like white things.”
“yes?”
“Your skin is white, your clothes are white. Danny eats an inexhaustible amount of rice, so I will call you Baekban from now on.”
Yeo Sang-rin pursed her lips.
“Other people are eating less.”
“Even when I was growing up, I couldn’t eat like you. It’s safe to say that you’re the best candidate in the world with limited camouflage.”
I don’t know where all that food went into that slender body. Perhaps this guy’s greatest organ is his ability to digest stones.
“I was going to come out earlier, but I waited because he seemed to be talking about something important. Are you a high-ranking person?”
“Uh, Hwanhee Wonju is the person in charge of the school’s housekeeping.”
“At first glance, you seem very beautiful.”
Seo Liang grumbled.
“A nobleman who acts as a person. It’s a problem because it’s a fox wearing a human mask.”
“You’re a fox to people.”
“Icicles have white spots, but they’re about as big as foxes.”
he said as he walked into the kitchen.
“Hang in there. I’ll make you a meal.”
Yeo Sang-rin was taken aback.
“Ah, even if I… … .”
“I’m not the kind of person who is rude enough to ask a guest to cook a meal.”
Xi Liang’s eyes shone.
‘First of all, I’ll have to start with the kids and move.’
* * *
“Sir General.”
“What is it?”
“The Three Gongjanim have come to visit you.”
Ho Yoseong smiled.
“I paid attention so openly, but you didn’t come until a day later. Come see me.”
After a while, Xu Liang entered the office.
Ho Yo-seong got up with a smile.
“Are you here?”
“yes.”
Said, looking around.
“This is the first time the office has looked so bloody.”
Ho Yo-seong’s office was in a mess, filled with countless documents and unorganized books.
“Do you know that there is order within chaos?”
“I don’t know what it is, but I don’t really want to know.”

“It may look messy in the eyes of a small person, but it will look systematic in its own way in the eyes of a large person.”
“Of all the bullshit I’ve heard lately, it’s definitely the best.”
“Kyahaha!”
Ho Yo-seong made a fuss and guided Seo-ryang to a chair.
“Did you come to eat? Would you like a cup of tea?”
“All it takes is an oyster truck.”
“Your eyes are a ghost.”
“The office is incense. I still don’t know why I drink that weird tea.”
“It’s subtly addictive.”
Ho Yo-seong, who grumbled, took out the Byeok Lachun after a while.
After taking a sip of tea, Xu Liang asked directly.
“So, why did you pay attention so openly?”
“What? Are you going straight to the point?”
“Can you steal the time of the general commander, who is busy with construction work, with something like a joke?”
Ho Yoseong smiled.
“You really don’t want to waste my time? Or are you hot?”
Seo Liang grinned.
“Have you heard the rumors?”
“Of course I do. Earlier, I heard that the carriage of So Won-ju was headed for Confucius’ residence.”
“You really know everything that goes on on campus.”
“That too in real time.”
“Good find.”
Ho Yo-seong tilted his head as if he was having fun.
“Are you curious about who is the ringleader of the rumor?”
“Aren’t you curious, then? Who are you?”
“I don’t know what you expected, but I can’t tell you.”
“why?”
“Because I have to remain neutral.”
Xie Liang smiled and turned her wrist. In an instant, the air in the office became sweltering.
“I guess you know.”
Ho Yo-seong said calmly.
“Of course. The Secret Service is under my command. It’s harder not to know.”
“Would you like to remain neutral?”
“It should be. I should, but… … .”
Ho Yoseong glanced at Xu Liang’s hand. It was as if those large hands were about to grab his neck at any moment.
“Are you going to have an accident if I don’t tell you?”
“I’m thinking about it.”
“You have improved a lot. In the past, you would have used your hands first.”
Ho Yo-seong’s eyes shone.
“You seem to have changed your mind starting with the inspection work, right?”
Certainly, one notice is a ghost.
Seo Liang clearly acknowledged it.
“I threw everything away and hid myself in a secluded place, trying to pursue the way of inaction. then.”
“Now?”
“I plan to kill everything and play the role of owner in this complicated place. Now.”
Ho Yo-seong’s smile deepened.
“Are you trying to destroy the Uicheon Meng?”
“Have you heard from the headmaster?”
“I am not the one who says that. I just matched the situation and the words and actions of the Three Gongs who suddenly changed.”
Xu Liang shook his head involuntarily.
This is why smart people are scary. Haomun’s Soumanju and Gong Yachi did the same, but Hoyoseong was also a person who was as good as anyone else when it came to using his brain, so he knew Xu Liang’s purpose with just a little information and circumstances.
“So, are you going to keep your mouth shut?”
“yes.”
Seo Liang nodded his head after pondering for a moment.
“It doesn’t matter.”
A line of tension hung over Ho Yo-seong’s face, which was full of smiles. I know about Xu Liang in my own way, but I still don’t know where this bomb-like person is going to end.
how will it come out How will this young tiger, who does not choose any means or methods to achieve his goal, move?
“Tea, I drank well.”
“uh? Are you leaving already?”
“I stopped by because I wanted something, so why not give it to me?”
Ho Yoseong was at a loss for words.
Still, I’m a gunman… … It is a power that is said to be one person, but everyone is superior… … .
“I haven’t even talked about myself yet.”
He shook his hand as if he was annoyed.
“I am busy.”
“Even if you’re busy, give me a little time.”
“If you tell me who started the rumor, I’ll think about it.”
“What deal is that?”
“Are you done with the pun? going.”
Seo Liang, who stood up, immediately turned around. It was really going to go.
Ho Yo-seong scratched his head and said.
“If you’re thinking of going to the residence of a grand duke or a public figure to make a mess, you’d better stop.”
Xu Liang glanced at Ho Yao-seong.
Ho Yo-seong’s face became serious when he asked why.
“I don’t know if you’ve heard, but the Archduke is not an easygoing person. You may fall off a cliff if you go straight ahead recklessly like the boatman.”
“Advice, heed it.”
“You should hear more.”
“I’ll hear you later.”
Ho Yoseong let out a sigh.
“Why are you so stubborn? If you do this all the time, one day you will be in big trouble. You probably don’t even know that.”
Xu Liang, who had been keeping an eye on Ho Yo-seong, suddenly took possession.
“I’m not very close, but I’m always grateful to Mr. Ho.”
“… … to?”
“Please continue to devote yourself to our school. It is a blessing for me too that Hogun devotees himself to the school.”
… … Why are you like this all of a sudden?
Seo Liang smiled.
“Let’s end today’s conversation with this. I’ll see you again in three days. Proper festivities are served with alcohol.”
Ho Yo-seong furrowed his eyebrows.
‘what? Why is this person suddenly like this?’
At the sudden change, even the cheers of the world were speechless.
So Liang left the office. Ho Yo-seong, who was left alone in the office with a scented tea scent, was very confused.
“Are you dedicated to the school? Is that something to be thankful for?”
Come back in three days? Why did you emphasize the time period of three days?
Ho Yo-seong, who was drinking tea and trying to collect his thoughts, dropped the teacup at a thought that suddenly came to him.
jjaeaeng!
The dropped teacup shattered with a loud sound, but Ho Yo-seong did not recognize that either.
“… … That gentleman is that?!”
* * *
“Oh, brother?!”
“It’s been a while.”
Seo Liang smiled and stroked Chae Yeo-min’s head.
Chae Yeo-min’s face was recalled. She hadn’t heard that Xi Liang had returned home.
“When did you come?”
“I came yesterday.”
“That’s right.”
Chae Yeo-min smiled.
The youngest I haven’t seen in a while was still cute. As much as she wants to pull the ball on her own.
“How was Yunnan? I heard it’s much hotter than here.”
Seo Liang shook his head.
“Don’t talk. It was very hot and it was raining heavily. Yeomin must not know how much I suffered?”
“wow.”
She was the owner of a genius talent, but she was still inexperienced in the world. After she entered the church, she had never been to a Protestant church, and to Yeo-min, her story under the mountain was more interesting than anything else.
Seo-ryang, who had been laughing at Chae Yeo-min, glanced to the side.
There stood a lady-in-waiting, now in her mid-thirties, with a nervous expression on her face. It seemed that her lady-in-waiting named Sodang, which Chae Yeo-min had talked about in the past, was her.
“Are you busy by any chance?”
“yes? Oh no! Morning practice is over! I am not busy!”
“okay? Then, would you like to go out for a drink with this brother?”
Chae Yeo-min’s face brightened.
“yes! yes!”
Sodang’s eyebrows twitched.
Was it in a hurry? She took a step forward and bowed her head.
“Princess, I’m sorry, but in the afternoon, I was studying royal studies… … .”
“hey.”
Seo Liang frowned.
“What will happen if you don’t learn royal studies for a day? Why are you still holding on to a child like that?”
“I’m sorry, but the princess’s routine must be followed. It has been so until now, and it will be so in the future. It’s not something that even the Three Princes would get involved in.”
It was a rather bold tone.
Xi Liang sensed deep concern and sharp tension in her voice.
‘I’ve heard rumors.’
Her tone was a bit jarring to just listen to her, but at the same time, I could see how much she cared about Chae Yeo-min.
Seo Liang smiled.
“I am not involved in the education of women right now.”
“Just do it… … .”
“So don’t get involved in the conversation between the brothers.”
“yes?”
“Where did you learn the habit of interrupting the conversations of superiors? Did the Lord of Joy teach that?”
Sudang felt that he was at a loss for words.
But I couldn’t get out of here. If the rumors were true, the princess was now in an extremely dangerous situation.
“I just… … .”
“Well, it’s not something I don’t understand. Even Dongpil sometimes crosses the line.”
Seo Liang said to Chae Yeo-min.
“Shall we go for a walk and see the older brother?”
“Are you a big brother?”
“okay.”
Chae Yeo-min’s smile grew brighter.
“great!”
Seo Liang smiled at Shao Tang.
“Should I learn royal studies through books or something like that?”
“… … !”
“If you’re worried, come with me too. See and feel for yourself how to teach Yeomin in the future.”
“yes yes?!”
There was no bird to stop it. Before I knew it, Seo Liang lifted Chae Yeo-min and held him in his arms. It was like hugging a nephew.
The sage’s eyes sparkled.
“Life is real life.”
