Episode 271
Welcoming guests (3)
“Hmm, it smells good.”
Moyong said with a smile.
“So, how is Tang Ma’s training going lately?”
“It’s going smoothly. Of course, I think we need a few more actual battles.”
“If you’re confident enough, it’s worth looking forward to.”
Mo Yong-woo shook his head.
“If it doesn’t work in practice, it’s of little use. “It seems like it can handle an all-out battle in an open field, but I’m not sure about battles in special environments such as urban warfare or mountain warfare.”
“Aren’t they all clad in heavy armor and riding on horseback? “It’s not suitable for urban warfare or mountain warfare in the first place.”
“The Mortal Army was different.”
“hmm?”
“The Mortal Army is also good at urban warfare and mountain warfare. His skills in all-out warfare in open areas will probably be outstanding.”
Moyong-gun chuckled.
“Most of the members of the Mortal Death Army come from prestigious families. The more prestigious the martial arts skills, the more distinct their individuality. Rather than uniting as one and crushing the enemy, a tactic that utilizes each individual’s individuality would be more effective. “There is a reason why Yeon Ho-jeong equipped his soldiers with light armor.”
“I think so too.”
“The Tangma Army is an organization specialized in all-out warfare with overwhelming firepower, and the Mortal Death Army is an organization specialized in special warfare with skillful response capabilities. “It’s also good for both organizations to develop by leveraging their respective strengths.”
Mo Yong-woo thought.
At times like this, Moyong really seems like a person who is devoted to the Murim Alliance.
I felt that way even more because the remark was filled with sincerity.
“by the way.”
Moyong-gun smiled.
“This matter was handled well.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes deepened.
“thank you.”
“Surely your business is not ordinary. “It must have been quite difficult to handle this matter, but they did a really good job.”
“Guizhou Trading Company is one of the hidden powerhouses in the commercial world. “I think I would have been in trouble because of this if I hadn’t been able to control the momentum right away.”
“I saw it well.”
“In the future, transactions with the main family will become much smoother. “You can relax.”
“ha ha ha!”
Moyong-gun burst out laughing.
“I could see a change in you from the moment you said you would help me. But this case was truly unexpected. “I didn’t know you had that kind of determination.”
“Cultivating character is important. But it is a sin if your character prevents you from doing what you should do.”
Anyone who knew what Mo Yong-woo was aiming for would have found this remark very meaningful.
Moyong smiled happily.
“That is correct. her! “It looks like you’re really ready now.”
Mo Yong-woo spoke as if he had just hung up.
“You can’t just wait for your brother to throw you some food. Now, I will run in my own way.”
“Hahaha!”
It was Mr. Moyong, who was putting a lot of pressure on himself because of one mistake.
In other words, in the midst of reorganization, Mo Yong-woo’s determination was truly welcome. I once again wondered if I had ever felt so reassured by the presence of my younger brother.
It was then.
“Matriarch.”
“What’s going on?”
“Excuse me, but I have a letter from Commander Tangma.”
“To Woo? “Please come in.”
Mo Yong-woo received the letter and opened it.
For a moment his eyes sparkled.
“Who did the letter come from?”
“I am the commander of the Mortal Army.”
Prince Moyong’s eyes suddenly became sharper.
“From that Yeonhojeong guy?”
“yes.”
“What did you say?”
“older brother.”
“huh?”
Mo Yong-woo stood up.
“I will come and meet Commander Yeon. “I’ll tell you the details when I come back.”
* * *
“Howdy.”
Yeon Ho-jeong waved his hand from the window on this floor.
Mo Yong-woo chuckled.
“Can I go up to this floor?”
“So are you going to drink outside on this cold day?”
“alcohol?”
“Do you use it when alcohol is absent from the conversation? Come up quickly.”
Did that guy like drinking that much?
Mo Yong-woo entered Yeon Ho-jeong’s residence. On the table in front of the window were two bottles of fish-flavored meat broth and strong wine, which had a nice scent.

Mo Yong-woo clicked his tongue.
“Are you a shipper again?”
“What about the shipper?”
“It’s not that I don’t particularly like it, but if I drink only fire wine, I get upset. “It must be so harsh.”
“I like the aftertaste of strong alcohol.”
“A strong yet clean drink has a good aftertaste. Just looking at this shipper, it looks like he just made it to get drunk.”
“Then why are you drinking to get drunk? Just sit down. “You probably haven’t even eaten.”
“Okay then.”
Mo Yong-woo picked up a piece of well-fried meat and ate it.
“Did Yeonje cook?”
“Well, it snowed so much that it was a hassle to go to the restaurant.”
“You can get there in an instant if you put your mind to it. “Why bother?”
“I just feel like that. “How does it taste?”
“It’s fascinating. It’s quite delicious. “Yeonje is also good at cooking.”
“If you live alone, you make at least this much of a fool.”
“I was a fool…”
Yeon Ho-jeong filled Mo Yong-woo’s glass.
“how is it? Mr. Moyong.”
Mo Yong-woo said with a calm face.
“You are taking care of yourself. “It looks like you are very aware of your mistake this time.”
“As expected.”
“Your brother’s movements this time were definitely too clumsy. “It was careless.”
Mo Yong-woo also filled Yeon Ho-jeong’s cup.
“So, the reason you didn’t fight back properly was because of the Ink Dragon Club?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“Your eyesight has become very sharp?”
“You have no discernment. “If I hadn’t heard it beforehand, I never would have guessed it.”
Mo Yong-woo fiddled with his glass.
“We prepare properly and explode… It looks like we are waiting for next year’s election.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“You can reduce the possibility of a counterattack by launching an unexpected surprise attack. It will be a somewhat scary result for Prince Moyong, but what can you do? “If you want to win, you have to do whatever it takes.”
“Choose the means and methods. Are you trying to be just like your brother?”
“Even if I don’t choose any means or methods, I will maintain the minimum ethics. don’t worry.”
“haha.”
Mo Yong-woo raised his glass.
“Let’s have a drink.”
“It’s good.”
The two people clinked their glasses and passed drinks coolly.
“Wow, it’s so harsh. “I think the alcohol was particularly strong today.”
“At times like that, snacks are needed. Eat quickly. “I put a lot of oil on it on purpose.”
Mo Yong-woo gasped and chewed the meat and swallowed it. My stomach was definitely greasy and I felt like I was going to live.
“Anyway…”
Mo Yong-woo asked, wiping his mouth with a handkerchief.
“What happened?”
“hmm?”
“It seems like the atmosphere has changed somehow. “I would say it looks more stable than before.”
“okay?”
“Have you solved any homework that hasn’t been solved yet?”
Yeon Ho-jeong smiled.
“It’s not like that, I just feel at ease.”
I don’t know if it really seems that way, but if the mood has changed, it’s probably because my father has accepted my past.
It was quite a burden not to show it, but to keep that secret to myself and not tell it to anyone. I had to come up with a justification and reason every time I did something, so of course I had to do that.
But not anymore. I remained silent, but just knowing that my father knew made my shoulders feel lighter.
“That’s a good thing. Yes, there should be no burden on your mind.”
“So, your brother has become much sharper?”
“Does it look like that?”
“ok. Still, you don’t look tired. Now, do you want to make up your mind and run?”
Mo Yong-woo smiled bitterly.
“Yeonje’s eyes are really sharp.”
“It’s not that my eyes are sharp, it’s that it’s easy for you to see.”
“Haha, I see.”
Mo Yong-woo filled Yeon Ho-jeong’s glass again and asked.
“So, what did you call me for? “It seems like it was an official story since you sent the letter even though you knew your brother was there.”
“that’s right.”
Yeon Ho-jeong pointed at Mo Yong-woo with chopsticks.
“If nothing happens, would you like to go get some fresh air with me this time?”
“Snorting?”
“Do you know that she is a West Station priestess?”
“Oh, of course. “Isn’t she a saint of the first generation?”
“Huh? “I had no idea.”
“You might not know. I’ve heard a lot of rumors about this and that about the commercial sector. But why the Western Station Lady?”
Yeon Ho-jeong told me the details.
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes lit up.
“Escort?”
“huh.”
“Then wouldn’t it be better for the entire Mortal Death Army or Tang Demon Army to go?”
“I thought so too at first, but it’s not any other job, it’s escorting, right? Even though it is an army with guaranteed freedom, it is a bit unfair to use it for escort work. Besides, our kids are currently refining their formation.”
“Hoo.”
“Tangma-kun is also busy? “Didn’t you say before that you are pouring blood and sweat into improving your ability to respond in the event of a melee?”
“That’s right. “I’m still working hard.”
“So, that’s right. Personally, when the Mortal Army’s next expedition, I plan to shoot all over the central plains and then die. “It’s a bit of a waste to waste time on something like this.”
“Wow, the expression ‘killing time’ is a bit harsh. “I guess escorting someone like that could be a great honor in itself.”
“Let’s share that good honor together. As we go, we talk about various things and practice. “It’s good, right?”
“Hmm.”
Mo Yong-woo’s eyes sparkled.
“I’m accompanying you under the pretext of an official mission… I guess it won’t give you a headache.”
“Anyway, my father and the soldier are there. “Moyong-gun won’t be able to run wild for the time being, so I think the timing is just right.”
Mo Yong-woo smiled.
“If there’s nothing else to worry about, it’s fine with me.”
Yeon Ho-jeong nodded.
“good. “Then we’ll be leaving in three days, so be sure to prepare well by then.”
“Good. ah! But…”
“Huh?”
“Are you just going to Yeonjae with me? “Are there no other companions?”
“well.”
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“I’m worried about one guy, but I have to be able to trust his mental state.”
* * *
Three days later.
“Okay, have a nice trip.”
“Yes father.”
“Even if there is nothing special, make sure to deliver the letter.”
“Do not worry.”
Yeonwi nodded.
“okay. ah! And then I heard that Jipyeong had departed. “I told you to keep in touch with me at all times through open communication, so I guess it would be okay to bring him if we can meet in the middle.”
“Oh good.”
It was then.
“Ready.”
Gangryang and Mukbi walked out.
Yeon Ho-jeong blinked.
“Why are you silent?”
“I’m going too.”
“Where?”
Mukbi pointed to Yeonhojeong.
Yeon Ho-jeong frowned.
“If you go all the way, who will train the kids?”
“I’m going to Zinc. And what kind of soldiers are they? “I can take care of things on my own even without a superior.”
“….”
“Besides, we are going to welcome a distinguished guest. It would not be excessive for an entire military unit to move, but if you are leaving your children to train, the country should go with you.”
Yeonwi looked at Yeonhojeong.
“I didn’t say it, but I agree with what Via said.”
Mukbi grinned.
“Look, your father says the same thing.”
Kang-ryang scratched his head.
“Wasn’t it a training trip?”
Yeon Ho-jeong sighed.
“Okay, let’s go together. Well, if something happens, your archery skills will be of great help.”
“Yes?”
At that time, Mo Yong-woo rode his horse and came to the front gate.
“Are you ready?”
“…Roughly.”
Yeon Ho-jeong placed the Gwangryongbu on his acromion.
“Well, I’m just escorting someone back, so what’s going to happen? Let’s get back quickly.”
