Episode 1191 Why does that happen? (One)
“Bangjang.”
“⋯⋯.”
“Director!”
Only after calling repeatedly did the court look back at Zhong Li-hyung. Zhongli-hyung’s face was red. the court asked calmly.
“Why are you doing this, Jang Mun-in?”
“Are you really going to go back like this?”
“Then?”
Jong-li-hyung heated up as if he was frustrated.
“It’s not something that will end in a lukewarm manner like this! “Do you still react that way when you see their arrogance?”
“⋯⋯.”
“This is a suggestion made by the manager himself. No, no. Is that what the room manager suggested? “Isn’t this a suggestion made by Gu File Bang directly?”
Zhongli-hyung lit up his eyes and continued speaking in an angry tone.
“You are right. What a good suggestion the manager made. “He held out a hand that endured bitter words that he didn’t need to hear, but how could he kick that hand away like this?”
But the court just smiled when they saw him like that.
“Isn’t it good?”
“yes?”
“As you get older, there is nothing more enjoyable than seeing young people full of energy. Moreover, since Shaolin is a Buddhist temple, it is even more difficult to see such strong-willed people.”
“Ji, this is what it is…”
“Let’s leave it alone.”
The court quietly shook its head.
“It’s unfortunate that something that could have been easily done has gone astray, but actually, from our perspective, it’s not that bad.”
Zhongli-hyung tilted his head as if he did not understand at all.
“How is this not a bad thing? We failed to absorb them, and the head of the room was openly embarrassed… Huh. “No, that…”
“I was embarrassed.”
“Well, I didn’t mean it like that…”
Zhongli-hyung muttered his words and slightly avoided the court’s gaze.
No matter how well we try to package it. No matter what was said, in the end, from the outside, it would only look like the court, the head of Shaolin, had given up after being admonished by Baekcheon, who had just become the head of Hwasan.
How happy would the luxury people be, since the noble Shaolin master was humiliated by the bright blue Hwasan master Jang Mun? I don’t know, but before a few days pass, it will become a rumor that no one in the entire world knows about.
“When I think about it that way, I feel a little embarrassed.”
“The head of the room?”
Zhong Li looked at the court as if he didn’t understand at all. People say it’s embarrassing, but no matter how you look at it, the faces in the courtroom right now don’t look embarrassed.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but it actually made me look a little relieved.
“This isn’t all bad.”
Unable to bear it any longer, Jong-ri asked again.
“Isn’t everything ultimately doomed? Chun Yu-meng declared that he would take a different path from the nine factions. As a result, wasn’t Gangho split into two more clearly than before?”
“⋯⋯.”
“The Sa-Pae-Ryun and the Demon Cult are eagerly targeting the central plains, but we are dividing ourselves. “Where in the world can you find something so bizarre?”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
Perhaps frustrated with the court, which calmly declared its disapproval even after hearing those words, Jong-ri-hyung raised his voice again.
“There is no law like this. Just because they were two families, or because they were five generations, did they always get along well? Isn’t it a place where there are sometimes more bitter rivalries than enemies? Still, when a crisis threatened to hit the powerhouse, we joined forces and fought again, as if we had never done so before. Isn’t that why the old file room could be the old file room?
“That’s right. “It was like that.”
The court calmly nodded as if there was nothing wrong with what he said.
“But how can you say something so outrageous? “No matter how young they are, there is no law like this!”
The court smiled.
“Jangmun-in.”
“yes?”
“What the younger people do out of ignorance is not the fault of the younger people, but the fault of the older people.”
“Well, that’s…”
“In the end, that’s just spitting in my face. “We failed to properly inform and persuade people, so who is to blame?”
Jong-li-hyung cleared his throat as if he was feeling uncomfortable. The court laughed again.
“And… What Deputy Jang Mun of Hwasan said was not just motivated by ambition or ignorance. “I’m not saying this because I don’t know or haven’t learned anything, but I’m saying this because I learned it very well and know it well.”
“What is that…?”
The court simply shook its head without further elaboration.
“So let’s just wait and see.”
“Bangjang. But right now, it’s urgent…”
“The more urgent it is, the more you have to go back, right?”
Jong-ri-hyung began chewing his lips. To be honest, I had no idea what the court believed and why it was so carefree.
“Director, do you really not know?”
“What do you mean?”
“I can’t tell you how much damage the director suffered due to the breakdown of this agreement. Even so…”
Jong-li-hyung closed his mouth before speaking. However, the court seemed to know what he was trying to say and instead finished his sentence.
“I guess you’re saying that there will be more people who look down on me now that I proposed a useless agreement while my position was getting smaller and ended up being embarrassed.”
“⋯⋯.”
“it’s okay.”
Zhongli-hyung did not answer, but the court continued speaking as if they had already heard the answer.
“That’s not that important. “The important thing is that, no matter what, Gupailbang is in a situation of isolation and no help.”
“That’s what I’m saying…”
I was about to agree, feeling frustrated, when Zong Li-hyung caught a puzzling comment in my ear.
“What could be better than this in this situation?”
Zhongli-hyung closed his eyes with a dazed look on his face.
“Ah, no, room manager. Didn’t you say something wrong? How is this a good thing? “In fact, it is difficult to find something worse than this.”
At those words, the court lightly shook its head.
“Work changes depending on how you think about it. Think about it, Jang Moon-in. Now, the position of the old faction has diminished within the political faction, and it has become a situation where it cannot do what it wants to do. “Isn’t that right?”
“yes! “That’s what I’m saying!”
“So it’s a perfect situation.”
Jong Li-hyung was unable to hide his absurd feelings and stared intently at the court. In my head, I thought, ‘Has this guy been completely disgraced and completely lost his mind?’ I had all these ungodly thoughts.
But the court just laughed when they saw his expression.
“It seems the Hinayana’s words are difficult to understand, Jang Mun-in.”
“Honestly, yes.”
“Jang Moon-in. Do you know why the people of the world have cheered and raised their hands for the actions of Chun Woo-maeng, rather than the actions of the old and the same?”
“That’s right…”
Zhongli-hyung could not answer. It wasn’t because he didn’t know, but because he didn’t want to say it out loud.
“Is it because of the agreement?”
“⋯⋯.”
“That’s right. Of course he is right. But that’s not all. “The reason why people have been supporting Chun Woo-maeng so far is because Gu-pa-il-bang is strong and powerful.”
“Ah…”
Only then did Jong-li-hyung understand what the court was saying and nodded vigorously.
Others might point their fingers at this when they hear it, but Jong-li-hyung knew that the court’s words were not so wrong.
In the world’s perception, Gupailbang is an absolute powerhouse as well as an absolute powerhouse. “They just don’t express open hostility because of the perception that they are a political faction that protects the powerful, so why aren’t there people in the world who are upset by their actions?”
“Then what the room manager said…”
“Yes, Jang Mun-in. “As a result of this incident, Gu File Il Bang will no longer be a strong force.”
The head of the room quietly continued speaking.
“Gangnam is controlled by that Sapaeryun, and the western part of Gangbuk is controlled by Cheon Woo-maeng. As a result, compared to the past, the position of Gufile Room has been reduced by less than half.”
“⋯⋯.”
“So, people in the world will no longer see Gupailbang as a strong person who can do whatever they want. And the same goes for those who belong to the old group.”
A strange smile appeared on the court’s face.
“When there is an enemy on the outside, we tend to unite on the inside. Do you know why the old factions have not merged with each other?”
Jong-li-hyung hesitated, as if he was slightly worried, before giving his answer.
“It’s because the external enemy… wasn’t a proper enemy.”
“Yes that’s right. Although she got into trouble once, that scam wasn’t enough to bring down her old file room. But what about now? The moment Cheon Woo-maeng broke away from the Gupailbang, the Sapaeryan was no longer an easy enemy. Moreover, the old faction is in a situation where it has to fight over the center of the political faction with that Chun Woo-maeng.”
“⋯⋯.”
“No one wants to have what they have in their hands taken away. “The moment I announce today’s results, the old factions that have stayed away until now will have no choice but to change their minds.”
“⋯⋯Is that really going to happen?”
In a voice that still could not erase his doubts, the court closed his eyes and chanted.
“Just looking at the sects in Sacheon right now, it’s like that. Cheongseong and Ami are suffering from the threat of the Sapae-ryan in the south and the power of the Cheon-u-maeng in the north. “Can they survive without the roof of their old house?”
“⋯⋯The fortune telling will be even worse. “Jeomchang is located in Yunnan.”
“Yes that’s right.”
In fact, one of the big reasons why Sichuan’s factions rebelled against the court was because of secret conflicts within the old factions.
Historically, the amount of power in the hands of the sects around Hanam, centered around Shaolin, Shaman, Hwasan, Gonggong, Jongnam, and Gaejeong, and the outlying sects located in Sichuan, Yunnan, and Cheonghae were completely different.
As the court’s position was narrowed, the factions that rebelled were all from the outskirts. But now they will no longer be able to continue this conflict.
If you try to get a little more power from Shaolin, you’re going to have everything you have taken away by Chun Yu-maeng, so what choice do you have?
“If you do that, the problem at hand will be solved.”
“It’s not just that.”
The court said, shaking its head slightly.
“The reason why Gu File Bang had to consider many things whenever making a choice was because Gu File Bang was a strong player. Because everyone was ready to criticize that choice. However, now that Gu-Fail-I-Bang can no longer be said to be an absolute powerhouse, there is no room for criticism even if it moves to find its own way.”
“Ah…”
“Meanwhile, Cheon Woo-maeng has raised the value of consultation so highly. Now, whenever there is an issue that requires consultation, the world will try to find Cheon Woo-maeng instead of the old faction. “It may be a little awkward, but it gives me a reason to take a step back.”
The court chuckled.
“But isn’t it just something you can handle? So it’s a long story. Don’t be in a hurry to hide what happened today, but actively make it known. “The Shaolin court was humiliated by Hwasan’s young deputy Jang Moon, and his offer was rejected and he was kicked out.”
“⋯⋯Is that really okay?”
“That doesn’t mean it can’t be done, it just has to be done that way.”
“Ah, I understand, room manager.”
“Amitabha Buddha.”
The court quietly chanted its disapproval.
They won’t know. What did they do? You will soon realize this as you see the situation change.
‘Look, Assistant Manager Jang Moon. Everything comes with responsibility. That responsibility will now have to be shouldered by Cheonwoo-maeng, not Gupailbang.’
The court just speeds things up a little. That was enough for now.
“But the room manager…”
“Please tell me.”
Jong-ri-hyeong, who caught a glimpse of the court’s attention, opened his mouth again.
“But in the end… In any case, when we had to fight against the Sa-Pae-ryeon, that Cheon Woo-maeng completely split with the Gu-pa-il-bang…”
The court shook its head.
“It just goes back a little bit. “In the end, everything will go as it should.”
“⋯⋯.”
“The reason why a courageous young man becomes a timid old man is not because he lacks courage or because his cooperation has been diminished. It’s just… because the world is not an easy place where you can just pursue ideals.”
“Hagiya⋯⋯.”
“If we know why our predecessors had no choice but to compromise in the end, we will be able to accept Cheon Woo-maeng, who realized the ways of the world, instead of the childish Cheon Woo-maeng who is not sure where he will go. In the end, instead of going back a little, you can take a better path.”
“understand.”
Jong-li-hyung nodded as if he now understood everything. Didn’t you think right away that Baekcheon’s ambition would not last long?
It would be much more beneficial to absorb those who have been bent and become soft rather than absorbing those stiff-headed Cheonwoo-Maeng.
However…
“By the way, room manager.”
“Yes, Jang Mun-in.”
“Well… I’m just asking this just in case, but if… it’s really one chance, just one chance, that Cheonwoo-Meng actually carries out their will until the very end, then…”
What happens?
The ending of the question was buried in anxiety. The court slowly closed its eyes.
“At that time…”
The court, which had been silent for a while and closed its eyes, soon looked up at the sky. The endless sky was so blue that it made my eyes bleed.
“It’s probably one of two things. Either everyone will be destroyed equally. Or…”
“⋯⋯.”
“Just as life blooms again from the ashes, a world different from before will unfold.”
Zhongli-hyung suddenly trembled. The lingering impression left by the hazy voice of the court did not go away for a long time.
