How To Live as a Civil Servant in Murim

“……”

Yeon Woo-hyuk’s words, ‘I’m trying to exploit you as a high-ranking official’ came up to my throat.

The Murim people did not understand why they were obsessed with government posts. Even more so as it was Podu.

And actually, even this was fine. It wasn’t that hard to pretend to be a good Podu.

“Do you have a relationship with Jegal Sega?”

“I have met Kyu-hyung or Cheongi-sama.”

“Is there any other relationship besides that?”

“……”

The most difficult thing was those who kept doubting whether Yeon Woo-hyeok had anything to do with Jegal Sega’s lineage.

If I answered strangely here, rumors such as ‘Jin Chungbido said that his Jegal Sei was an illegitimate child’ would circulate, and the chase of Jegal Sega would follow!

‘It would be nice to be captured soon.’

Yeon Woo-hyuk yawned as he looked at Cheonggoe Mountain Lodge. The fighting must have ended. Now the Murim people had come to the bottom of their chin. The road was narrow, but it didn’t seem like it would last long.

Receive a reward when it is captured, buy an elixir as a reward…

‘How much should I bribe? I really don’t want to give it.’

“Jin, Mr. Jinchungbido! It’s a big deal!”

“What’s going on?”

“Right now, the two Confucius are fighting big. Jinchungbido needs your help!”

“!”

“To frame a false name with such a fake letter. dare?”

Mo Yong-so, the first swordsman, looked at his younger siblings and growled. But the younger siblings didn’t care. If he backed down from such a threat, he was not the blood of the Moyong family.

“The contents of the letter were to inform us of the time of our attack with the battalion, and the place where the letter was found was also my brother’s residence.”

“One of you guys threw it in.”

“While shouting that you are falsely accused, my brother is so good at throwing a false name!”

“Pull out your sword.”

“However much! However, when reporting to Sega, don’t forget who spoke first.”

“Everyone please wait!”

Murim people from outside Sega arrived with Yeon Woo-hyeok.

Mo Yong-so looked at his younger siblings and was furious.

“Empty rain too. Here are the guys who framed me. Please clarify the truth.”

“Jin Chung-bi, my brother is rather angry right now! You must reveal the truth.”

One of the lower Sega visitors shouted.

“Maybe this is half guile! Confucius, please calm down!”

“Half-guile! words are good What’s more likely is that these people framed me. Do you have any proof that it’s anti-crafty?”

“I agree. It’s more likely something else than anti-intelligence. My brother was intrigued or…”

“Half-scheming, that’s right. The servant over there was bribed by the Venerable Heukreuk at Cheonggoe Sanjang and threw the letter into the place.”

At Yeon Woo-hyuk’s plaintive words, the surroundings became quiet as if you could hear the sound of a needle dropping.

Moorim departure (3)

“What… what…?”

“Words, that is nonsense! What do you see people as and say such things!”

The servant who was pointed out jumped up and shouted. It was all the more shocking as I was not expecting it at all and was pointed out.

“All the Murim people gathered here are people who have gathered for the sake of agreement and righteousness! Do you think there will be someone to buy?!”

‘oh.’

Yeon Woo-hyuk was slightly impressed.

They said that even if they were the same slaves, they were different from those of the Daegamjip.

Rather than just running around and denying it, he immediately attracted other Moorim people around him.

“Empty rain too. It’s hard to believe if you claim that a servant did it without proper evidence.”

“Right. In what great world do you handle things like this?”

Some Murim people who had distrust in Yeon Woo-hyeok’s reputation or doubted his identity as Podu immediately opened their mouths.

It was Yeon Woo-hyeok who was alone while other Murim people suffered. At this time, jealousy had no choice but to fly.

“The proof is not very difficult.”

Yeon Woo-hyuk’s expression did not change despite the quarrel or provocation. Compared to the Hankyung officials, the Moorim people’s quarrel felt like cute charms.

“If you search the servant’s tent…”

‘under!’

The servant laughed inwardly.

I was surprised, but I was sure that Yeon Woo-hyuk would soon be disgraced.

‘I don’t know how I found out, but that’s it! It looks like you’ve heard what the Madou guys are talking about, but even though I’m an outsider, you won’t be able to drive me because I’m a servant to the Moyong family.’

“…there will be nothing. How could anyone do such a thing and put a bribe in his tent?”

Yeon Woo-hyuk skillfully corrected his words while reading the servant’s emotions.

If my memory is correct, there was one of two places where the servant hid the wealth he had received in this anti-scheming incident.

One was now a tent, and sometimes it was changed to something other than a tent.

Seeing the servant’s relief when he mentioned the tent, it was clear that it was somewhere else. When it comes to actually solving the problem, if you don’t find one and don’t come out, you’ll lose face and your reputation will fall, so this trick was essential.

“Look at that servant’s elbows and knees. The dirt has been brushed off, but the color is dark because it has not completely disappeared yet.”

“It’s over… it’s over!”

Yeon Woo-hyuk did not respond. After answering one-on-one about how he doubted him anyway, only Yeon Woo-hyuk got tired. I didn’t even have words to answer in the first place.

What mattered was the momentum. When people thought, ‘Ah, that Podu must be right!’, it was a breeze.

“The Confucius of the Moyong family are all high-ranking nobles in Gigi and Murim. If, indeed, let’s imagine that one of these people joined hands with Venerable Heukreuk. So, would you like to put the letter in your place? Wouldn’t you have burned it right away?”

“That’s why I thought that someone might have framed the Ilgeom Gongja!”

One of the visitors answered involuntarily. Yeon Woo-hyuk nodded and gestured as if he had done well at the good participation.

“Let’s imagine if another Confucius was framed. So, would you leave the correspondence like this? It’s a situation where anyone can doubt anti-scheming? So I thought there was no criminal among Confucius.”

“……”

They were the Confucius of the Moyong family, who were not on good terms with each other, but this time, no one complained and listened quietly.

Jinchungbido’s words saved their face and suggested a solution.

“Then who is it? A person who has no choice but to use sloppy methods and has access to the dwelling place. There were still many, but the servant’s knees and elbows were noticeable. He may have fallen, but judging by the look on the servant’s face, even in the midst of this commotion, he seemed to be happy.”

The Moorim people couldn’t breathe and focused on Yeon Woo-hyuk’s words.

Dozens of people flocked to find a suspicious person after excluding the Confucius without blinking an eye in a chaotic situation.

someone muttered.

“As expected, Jegalse…!”

“I am not the Jegal tax. That’s why I thought that servant was bought. You talked about the evidence earlier, but it’s not that difficult. How far would a servant go if he went under this circumstance? Do you see that tree eight and four feet to the east of here? It would have been buried under me.”

“Me, how about that?”

“I looked around on the way, and the soil color was different.”

“…!!!”

“Catch it!”

Moyongso coldly shot at him. Sensing his fate, the servant screamed.

“Gongja-nim! Wrong! Wrong! Please save my life!”

“Do you want to live on? drag and go!”

After finishing her work, Mo Yong-so hugged Yeon Woo-hyeok and said politely.

“Thank you Jinchungbido for your help. Thanks to you, I was able to get rid of the injustice.”

The other two brothers did the same.

Aside from his inner thoughts that he could have put an end to his older brother’s reputation, his reputation was damaged in an instant if he acted in a small way towards Yeon Woo-hyuk in front of many Moorim people.

“It’s just a trifle. I’m just glad that blood didn’t flow between the followers of Jeongpa Murim!”

Receiving praise from all sides, Yeon Woo-hyuk left the crowd. Seeing Yeon Woo-hyeok looking around as if he was looking for someone, the father-in-law who came out of Jin Gum-bo asked, puzzled.

“What are you looking for?”

“I was checking the person who was bought, not the servant. There are a few more.”

“…!!”

The father-in-law looked at Yeon Woo-hyuk with awe.

This young Murim person might be an excellent bookkeeper even compared to, or even better than, Jegal Se.

The Venerable Heukreuk urged with great anticipation when his subordinate arrived. There is nothing more enjoyable than when a seed sprouts from a sown seed.

What would happen to the camp below?

“Tell me. How have you been?”

“That, that’s…”

“What? What’s going on?”

“The servant has been captured.”

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

The Venerable Heukreuk exploded his life force. At the sharp momentum that suddenly poured out like a blade, the lower level subordinate could not stand it and jumped.

“Jung… Really.”

“This is nonsense. This is nonsense! Why didn’t the anti-guile system work?”

As he paced around the room, the Venerable Heukreuk muttered.

The siege outside was also siege, but when I heard this, I didn’t know how the blue water demon would react. He was extremely violent, so it wouldn’t be strange if he fired a shot at an ally.

I’m sure it would work if Mo Yongse was among the Confucius guys…

“That, I heard rumors, there is a guy named Jinchungbido in the camp.”

“Even the worm?”

“He’s the one who recently killed the red-faced blood brain.”

“Ah, that Podu who killed the red-faced blood brain?!”

Venerable Heukreuk remembered who Jinchungbido was.

Recently, rumors spread that he killed the master of Murim on the subject of Podu, so I laughed at him…

“Wouldn’t the others be with you? Even though…”

“I guess so. But even taking that into account, martial arts are quite good. It’s not easy to risk your life even if you cooperate in front of a master with a red-faced and bloody brain! I’m more curious about his tricks than that. I heard that it was rumored to be a trick, but it’s actually pretty good.”

“The servant must have made a mistake. If not, there’s no way they’ll get caught.”

The subordinate spoke flatteringly. Even the venerable Heukreuk, if not to the extent of the blue-water demon, was an eccentric and dirty-tempered person. If he was in a bad mood, he could swing that captain and beat his subordinates to death.

“Yes… it will.”

The Venerable Heukreuk nodded.

No matter how you look at it, it didn’t make sense that a young bastard, and he didn’t even come from any family, saw through the machinations of the Venerable Heukreuk and trampled on them.

The servant must have made a mistake. otherwise it was not explained.

“But the blue water demon will hold me accountable…”

“Heukreuk Venerable Master!”

“?”

“I contacted the other guys. Those who took our money. He was terrified when I threatened him, so he said he would understand.”

“Good job!”

The subordinate bowed his head in delight at the praise of the Venerable Heukreuk. I thought I would die if I went back like this, so I went to the people who bought it somehow, but it worked.

“Did they not look suspicious? It could be a trap.”

“None. And don’t worry. I didn’t say where we would meet.”

No matter how much the opponent dug a trap, it would be useless if you diverted your gaze around several places. The Venerable Heukreuk was satisfied and tapped the floor with the captain.

“There is no time. Call them!”

“yes!”

After the subordinates left, Venerable Heukreuk caught up with the captain while refining his life.

I still lacked Jiangshi, but when the Moorim people I bought this time came, I thought I would have to replenish them.

Not all of them would listen thoroughly anyway, so only the most obedient ones had to be spared.

‘…It can’t be a trap.’

For a moment, the Venerable Heukreuk thought that he was preparing the next plan too hastily, but he shook his head and shook his head.

As befits a meticulous and cunning schemer, Venerable Heukreuk had no intention of revealing himself right away. The place where Venerable Heukreuk was to be was Jeoambong Peak, one of the most remote and uninhabited places on this mountain.

Even his subordinates did not know that the Venerable Heukreuk was waiting there. The subordinates will take the purchased Murim people and circle around the mountain, and when the time is right, the Venerable Heukreuk will come down.
