Abolition of the Wicked - Chapter 74
Chapter 74
Zhuge Sega, which flew away, disappeared from view in an instant. “Hey, what is that girl?”
Although he was dressed like a madman, the sight of Kyunggong vanishing in front of his eyes was astonishing. Sehwa then spoke to the confused official. “I think you guys are in trouble?”
“Why us?”
“If you wait for a moment, you will know.”
Sehwa didn’t even know what Zhuge Sega was going to do. However, he would not have disappeared without meaningless talking about the time. Things were a little loose and he was very lazy, but he was not an idiot. The official could not persecute Sehwa because he was confused, and in the meantime, some parts passed in an instant. “The mail-order man! You are a really tall person, right?”
“I’m not very high, but I’ll probably be able to handle the things you ask me to do.”
Zhuge Sega then appeared with an astonished voice. Behind Zhuge Sega, was an official who appeared to be in his early fifties. The three officials who saw him quickly bowed their heads. “Meet the mail order adult!”
“Huh? Aren’t you Kwak’s housewife? Are you the corrupt official you spoke of?”
“Ah, no, boo… It’s not corrupt….” Zhuge Sega stopped the stuttering housewife Kwak.
“It’s corrupt. I was ordered by someone and tried to stop the construction by making a point.” “It’s not just a rant….” Housewife Kwak’s words were cut off again this time.
“Where are the documents that ordered the construction to be stopped?”
Housewife Kwak, who was about to say something, immediately lowered her head. “Sorry. There is not.”
“Are you trying to stop construction work that has been officially approved without official documents?”
With that, he politely bowed to Zhuge Sega. “Sorry. Thanks to you, we have found some rude officials.”
“If there was such a management, it wouldn’t be bad for my uncle, the landlord.”
The landlord was the highest position in the officials who governed Hangzhou. Tongpan, who repeatedly thanked Zhuge Palmere, disappeared with three officials. Before going, the mail order even promised that there would be no more obstructions from the coffin at Oseongiru. Kwan was a difficult enemy to use force, but thanks to the Zhuge Sega, he was able to defeat it easily.
“Thank you.”
At Sehwa’s resignation, Zhuge Sega laughed softly. “Did you pay for a meal with this?”
Geom Woo-bin knocked on Zhuge Sega’s door, but there was no answer. “I heard he was in the room.”
When he opened the door, the first thing that caught his eye was Zhuge Sega himself, lying down and reading a book. “Are you finally here to attack me?”
His pronunciation was muffled as he was munching sweets in his mouth. “I was going to say thank you for helping Sehwa, but I think I just interrupted it.”
Zhuge Sega then spoke to Geom Woo-bin who turned around. “It feels like I’m getting married to you, so I know that.”
“After….” Geom Woo-bin sighed again.
“It’s because I’m still thirteen.”
“I know. Anyway, after a few days, Oh Seon Manor looks like heaven. Even now, no one nags about cleaning the room, washing up, practicing martial arts, etc. do not worry. That in itself won’t make you a pig. The three of us don’t just get fat by constitution.”
“How come, I don’t think it’s me who is getting married, but Oh Seon Jangwon?”
“But you can’t marry a building, right?”
“There are a lot of men who haven’t been married to Oseon Manorwon yet.”
“Still, you are the worst. It’s easy to get permission at home. So I know that.”
“Hey, what do you think?”
At that, Zhuge Sega waved his hand. “Don’t think too deeply. This is enough for a face, a body, and a family. If there’s anything else you want, please tell me. I will listen to what you can hear.”
After saying those words, Zhuge Sega’s gaze shifted from the book to Geom Woo-bin. “That’s okay. Find a way to marry Mr. Oh rather than me.”
After saying those words, Geom Woo-bin followed Zhuge’s gaze until the end. He then took a handful of cookies, put them in his mouth, and sat down. “Isn’t it okay this way? Any other way is too cumbersome.”
Zhuge Sega, lying on his back again, muttered as he placed the book in front of his face. “I still have a lot of time, so what? First of all, if you want to avoid getting married at home, would you like to have children?”
After coming to Oseonjangwon, Zhuge Sega went around the manor for the first time in the early morning. In addition to this, he looked at the time and he went up to the roof and watched the quenching of the Siege Tak. Of course, Yeon Jeon Hong took the next seat. “It’s amazing here.”
“What?”
“No one is saying anything. He greets me warmly even when I walk around without washing, doesn’t seem to gossip behind her, and smiles whenever I meet her.”
“You always seem to be in your room, when did you see them all?”
“I have to poop too. Ah!”
Zhuge Sega suddenly asked with a straight face. “What should I do to get married to that Woo-bin?”
“Do you like this place, or do you like Woo-bin?”
Zhuge Sega then shrugged. “Both. To be honest, sometimes our Sega is so busy and fierce that it’s hard to breathe. No matter how you look at it, there is no such thing. Of course, the best thing here is Woo-bin.”
Zhuge Sega, who had been looking at Gong Seong-tak for a while, asked. “Wouldn’t it be better to make friends with the people at the manor in advance?”
“Nothing bad about doing so.”
“Then first, let’s focus on the blacksmith uncle.”
Even though Zhuge Sega jumped off the roof, Gong Seong-tak greeted him without showing any signs of surprise. It was their first official greeting, and while we were talking about having a good time, Zhuge Sega said that he wanted to do a quenching.
Gong Seong-tak then politely handed the hammer. Zhuge Sega’s body, holding the hammer, stumbled forward. “Wow! Is it really this heavy?”
“Would you like something light?”
“This is fine. How are you doing?”
“The lady is great. Learning is also fast. He has what it takes to be a good blacksmith. Where would you like to see your bones?”
When Gong Seong-tak was about to touch Zhuge Palm’s shoulder, Yeon-myeon Hong, who was watching, slapped him on the hand.
“Uh-huh! Where are you trying to touch your body?”
“I see the muscles, where are the men and women? Well, if you haven’t seen it, you know it’s great. Do you have any intention of becoming my disciple?”
“Yes?”
“I found a guy who can teach martial arts, but I haven’t found a blacksmith apprentice yet.”
At this, the man smiled and spoke once more. “Wow! That’s a huge word. My uncle said that he would make Zhuge’s only daughter into a blacksmith.”
“What is that?” Seeing Gong Seong-tak questioning with his eyes wide open, this time, Zhuge Sega looked surprised.
“Hey, Zhuge… Don’t you know three?” As she was about to explain to Zhuge Sega, her quarrel called Zhuge Sega.
“Lady, you have a guest.”
“Guest? Does anyone know that I am here?”
“Yes. Is it a handsome nobleman?” The number of handsome nobles Zhuge Sega knew would be fifty. Whoever would come to her was counted among her three fingers.
“Where did you lead me?”
“That, that… He said he really wanted to see the room where the lady was staying….”
At Da-rae Oh’s words of guiding him to the room, even Zhuge Sega knew who the opponent was. “I know who it is.”
He thought he would come someday. One of the two people in his mind would come anyway, and the problem was that the time she spent to enjoy depended on who she was. And so, he hoped that the former would come if possible, but unfortunately, when he opened the door, it was the latter who was standing with in the middle of the room.
Zhuge Sega took a deep breath. ‘I have to go today.’
He wanted the person to be the second brother, but the person who came to pick up Zhuge Sega was the owner of Soga, Zhuge Pyeong-su. “Were you doing this?”
Wow! As he moved, Zhuge Pyeong-su’s eyes frowned as he stepped on the crumbs of cookies that had fallen to the floor. “Zhugellse is doing all the disgrace.”
He said naturally. “I think of it as an older brother or a disgrace.”
“Who will see Zhugese in the face of a man?”
“If anything, Seon-Won Oh, looks really ugly. Will you see me like this? No one cares about the same Zhugesse here. Big brother doesn’t know how comfortable it is.”
“Shut up!”
The cold voice of Zhuge Pyeong-su continued to cover Zhuge Sega’s mouth. “Take your luggage. I can’t stay any longer because of you.”
If they had to talk about her for a long time, it would only lead to criticism of Zhuge Pyeong-su towards her. “Who told you to come pick me up? It’s just that I came here for nothing.”
Her gossip was the greatest defiance she could have. At that moment, he heard the voice of Geom Woo-bin, who was saving Zhuge Sega. “This is Geom Woo-bin. may I come in?”
Zhuge Sega then responded quickly. “Come in!”
Geom Woo-bin, who entered his room, greeted Zhuge Pyeong-su. “I heard that you have come.”
Thirteen-year-old Geom Woo-bin greeted Zhuge Pyeong-su with respect that was not her age. “Sorry. She couldn’t even say hello to the owner because of her rush. It is called Zhuge Pyeong-su, the Sogaju of the Zhuge Sega.”
They then met casually when they went to Zhuge, but they couldn’t formally say hello. “I am sorry that my brother has caused so much trouble.”
“That’s not the case. Rather, thanks to Zhuge Sega, we had a lot of fun. Rather, speak more comfortably. Not only is he very young, but he is also a friend of Hoon.”
“He has a family, but he can’t do that.”
“Anyway, my eldest brother is clogged up.” Zhuge Pyeong-su, who had been smoking a tantrum in the fierce snow, blinked at Geom Woo-bin.
‘Please don’t let me go!’ Her strong wish seemed to have been properly conveyed to Geom Woo-bin.
“Since you have come a long way, please stay for a few days.”
“I appreciate the kindness, but please understand that he will not be able to stay long as he is on his way home from work.”
It seemed that he didn’t come all the way on purpose to pick up Zhuge Sega. “All right. Then, let me serve you a meal. If you let your friend’s older brother go like this, there will be no face to be seen as a friend.”
“It seems like it would be disrespectful if you decline any further since you ask so much.” Zhuge Sega’s face brightened, then gradually darkened, and soon turned into his resignation. He only had time to eat one meal.
“Woo-bin-ah.”
“Yes?”
“What you say is just like inspiration. Acting like an old man.”
Zhuge Zhuang Li, who could not achieve his will, said these words before leaving the room. “This person… He’s like a guy who doesn’t even know how to exist properly. Sorry.”
“No. There are about a hundred people who called me old, so it’s okay.”
While the meal was being prepared, Geom Woo-bin and Zhuge Pyeong-su looked around Oseon Manor. And after eating, as promised, he prepared the carriage that came in front of the manor. Zhuge Sega, who had a glimmer of hope, turned into a gloomy expression like a fairy who was kicked out of her heaven.
“Does it feel good when Woo-bin kicks you out?”
With that, he suddenly hugged Geom Woo-bin. “I will definitely come back!”
Geom Woo-bin patted him on the back. “Next time, don’t run away and just come and play.”
Jong-ryeo, who also hugged Je-geol-hong, who came off to see him off, got into the carriage. “Sorry for causing trouble to your brother. I feel uncomfortable because I feel like I am constantly being indebted to your manor. Please give me a chance to come to Zhugesse in the future and pay my dues.”
As always, Zhuge Pyeong-su’s attitude was always polite. As the wagon left, Geum Hong murmured. “There was no good one among the things with oil in their mouth.”
Meanwhile, Kwak Bong-eun remembered the scene where Geom Woo-bin called her a few days ago.
―Uncle Kwak, please help Kang Chan-sik.
-Yes? What do you mean?
―Ugh, there is a Blood Lion, so would Jo Hwangse be an opponent? It’s enough just to go and make a mugwort field.
-You can’t solve everything that way.
―It’s not a good way to just let go and block Jo Hwangse’s attack. We also have to prepare.
―What do you mean by ‘prepare?’
―If the Emperor Cao is so powerful that he can dominate Hangzhou during the day, can’t we stop it by ruling the night in Hangzhou?
