Episode 7.

What takes precedence over additive (1)

“… … .”

The air in the room was suffocatingly heavy.

It was an atmosphere in which even the sound of breathing was not allowed. Yeon Ji-pyeong glanced at her father and older brother with her anxious eyes.

“gulp.”

The sound of spitting shook the air.

At the end of that time, Yan Wei finally opened his mouth.

“Explain.”

It was a simple word cut back and forth.

Yeon Ho-jung said calmly.

“We quarreled and fought.”

“I never asked you to summarize.”

It was a voice that was difficult to read.

And it was the same for Hojeong Yeon.

“The girl from the Namgung family started a fight first. They said they would kneel us down. I beat them all because I thought it was not something to just pass over because they even let me live.”

“I heard that the child of the family of Liga has a crushed face, and the daughter of the family of Namgung has broken limbs.”

“That’s right.”

“Especially, it is said that the daughter of the Namgung family is still in a situation where they are not coming to their senses. Also, she needs to recuperate for half a year due to severe internal trauma.”

“Is that so?”

“okay.”

“I don’t think I’ll ever touch this side again.”

The old man’s eyebrows twitched.

It was a slight change in expression. Yeon Ji-pyeong was even more nervous because she didn’t know what it meant.

Yeon-wi opened his mouth again.

“No matter how much I tried to argue first, two men beating a woman is a big problem.”

“Two?”

“hmm?”

“I did it alone. There was no evaluation.”

Yeon-wi looked at Yeon-ji-pyeong.

“Is it true?”

“… … yes.”

He looked very nervous, but at least he didn’t seem to be lying.

Yeon-wi was embarrassed inwardly.

‘Can I deal with the two alone?’

The first skill was well known to himself. He was not a child without talent, but he was not yet capable of being called first-rate.

Even if it is possible for the children of the Anhui family, the female daughter of the Namgung family is different. It was hard to imagine that she had the ability to overwhelm without getting hurt, if she had been beaten.

“I mean, you’re alone, dealing with those two.”

“To be exact, Lee took him down because he came out first, and then he took care of the woman from the Namgung family.”

“He took care of me… … .”

He said in a voice that became even heavier.

“I don’t want you to become gentlemen. However, pay more attention to your usual words and actions. A tough heart makes you speak harsh words, and harsh words determine your actions.”

“Is that so.”

“There is nothing more damaging than losing your cool enough in a few words.”

Yeon Ho-jung said no more.

This is not a place to refute or inject ideas. He was the grand duke of Yeonga, but at the same time he was the lord of Black Emperor, the first of Sapa. Of course, he had no choice but to be far from the image of a warrior that his family pursued.

Crucially, he did not want to quarrel with his father. This was the reason Yeon Ho-jeong cherished his words.

Looking at the silent older son, Yan Wei said.

“Whatever the reason, the Namgung family is a prestigious Murim family that is counted among the seven generations along with the main family. It’s a big problem that the sons of two families quarreled to the point of blood. I think you know too.”

It was a subtle reprimand. It meant that even if it meant avoiding the spot, we shouldn’t have quarreled.

Yeon Ho-jeong tilted her head.

“Is it true that the family is the seventh generation?”

“What do you mean?”

“That girl didn’t recognize her family as the seventh generation.”

Yeon-wi’s eyes changed.

However, his voice was not different from before.

“It’s just an immature remark from a child who hasn’t matured. For Crown Prince Namgung to judge it with the will of the whole, how is it different from being elated that he knows one and knows ten?”

“I am not dissatisfied with the Namgung family.”

“if?”

“What matters is the situation, and who is at fault.”

“You mean to face the essence?”

“That’s right.”

“Essence is always important. Likewise, it is important to cover up the right and wrong and the personal punishment that follows. However, the world is not that simple. Especially when the opponent’s power is strong, you have to be more careful.”

“I know.”

“If you knew, you shouldn’t have acted that way.”

This time, Yeon Ho-jeong kept her mouth shut.

There were many things that could be said. While living in the back alley, he faced the lowliness and horror of black sword countless times, but at the same time he was able to keep an eye on the duplicity and frustration of white sword.

However, if this was the law of the love family and the father’s idea, there was nothing more to say.

Yeon-wi, who had been looking at his two sons with indifferent eyes, opened his mouth.

“Whether to reward or punish, I will decide after seeing how things are going.”

“… … .”

“Everyone go back to your place and get some sleep.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s face turned white at the unexpected words.

Father had never ordered them to sleep. My father’s eyes were always as clear as a judge’s, and he was the one who made choices and judgments as firm as a blade.

Such a person tells you to sleep. Yeon Ji-pyeong felt that the situation was more serious than he thought.

“father.”

“Tell me.”

“That, that’s it. Maybe it was because of me that the fight happened. If I had prevented it beforehand… … .”

“Something happened and people got hurt. And it is not you who hurt people, but your brother.”

“Ah, Father!”

“Go back to your place of residence and get some sleep.”

“Wait a minute, just a little more… … !”

The old man’s eyebrows twitched. Yeon Ji-pyeong’s mouth fell shut.

Then, Yeon Ho-jeong arose.

“Then let’s go in. Pyeong-ah, let’s go.”

In the end, Yeon Ji-pyeong had to happen.

The way to go out to the room and return to the residence.

Yeon Ji-pyeong bowed her head.

“I’m sorry, brother.”

“hmm?”

“It happened because of me. If I had just eaten at the residence with my older brother… … .”

“Horizon.”

“yes?”

“It’s not something the older brother who caused the accident will say, but there’s something I want you to keep in mind.”

“What is it?”

“There are no ifs in the world.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong’s eyes shook.

“Everything that happens in this world has cause and effect. But, in the end, it is people who make that cause and effect. You were the one who asked me to go to Goyangru, but I was the one who took the initiative.”

“… … .”

“In the end, results matter.”

“But.”

“Let me ask you something. If I hadn’t used my hand, would you have used yours?”

Yeon Ji-pyeong, who thought for a moment, nodded.

“Yes, I think so.”

It was a short but serious answer. Yeon Ho-jeong knew Yeon Ji-pyeong’s sincerity.

“But the reality is different. I already smashed them both before you could do anything about it.”

“… … .”

“If you are going to investigate and hold you guilty, even the ancestors who brought Love Song to the world should be criticized. Is that what you want?”

“Oh no! It can’t be!”

“know. So the if assumption is meaningless.”

“still… … .”

Yeon Ji-pyeong, who had been biting her lip, shouted as she clenched her fists.

“If my brother is to be punished, I will be punished too! I will definitely tell my father that!”

Yeonhojeong smiled and stroked his hair.

Yeon Ji-pyeong was frightened.

“Ouch! Mmm, my hair is getting messy!”

“You bastard, where in the world are there parents who punish innocent children?”

“Sniff. Enough.”

“Stop thinking useless things and go back to your place of residence. You must have been surprised by this and that, but get a good night’s sleep.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong shook Yeon Ho-jeong’s sleeve.

“Brother too. OK?”

“Don’t worry, man.”

Yeon Ji-pyeong, who hesitated several times as if her feet couldn’t move, eventually lowered her head and headed for her residence.

Yeon Ho-jeong, who was standing there and watching Yeon Ji-pyeong’s back, murmured softly.

“I don’t know if it’s only natural that I’m so anxious. Because I did too.”

No matter how deep your love is, you won’t know it if you don’t express it.

It’s unfortunate, but my father wasn’t the type to show his emotions outwardly. Rather, he set stricter laws for his blood relatives and taught them to value family rules.

It doesn’t matter to me, but I hope Pyeong-yi can be a little softer.

Hojeong Yeon grumbled quietly.

“By the way, what about wall jingyeol? Can I learn it now? I think I’m going to get scolded.”

* * *

past midnight.

A strong momentum rose outside the gate of the love song.

“house owner!”

The booming voice pierced the gate and shook the entire outer garden.

“These guys! open the door! Call the family head immediately!”

“who are you?”

“What? Did you guys ask me who I am? OK! I’ll tell you!”

Quaang!

A shock accompanied by a roar shook the southern gate of the Outer Garden.

Kwajijik! thud!

One side of the door collapsed.

The large door, one foot tall and over half a foot thick, was shattered in one blow. In the center of the broken door was a large human handprint deeply engraved.

“What is this?”

“I can’t shut up! I am Daesan from the Namgung family! Call the family head immediately!”

“How can even a male palace perform such an outrageous thing!”

“No? under! You speak well! If so, what kind of family is this family that claims to be a child of a truly reckless guy! It is no different from the Parak Lake group!”

“What an insult?!”

Tadadak!

At that time, dozens of warriors rushed through the broken south gate.

They were the iron-walled men who protected Yeonga’s outer garden. Their martial arts, which were mainly responsible for escorting and guarding, were not inferior to being called first-class.

“Are these things going to come out in earnest now?!”

“I can’t tolerate it anymore… … !”

“Get out of the way!”

puck!

The man who pushed through the gatekeeper at the south gate was a middle-aged man with a heavy body.

He was nearly seven feet tall, and carried a great sword three or four times the size of any other long sword on his back.

The iron walled beasts’ eyes shone.

The large swordsman radiated a spirit that was truly rare. The energy that should have been vigorous from the beginning was rising like a wave due to anger.

He was Namgungdaesan. The person who called to stop by today at noon broke down the main gate and broke in.

“house owner! Come out immediately! I am Namgung… … !”

“You are here already.”

Namgung Daesan looked at the warehouse on the left.

A middle-aged man was walking towards the side of the warehouse. At first glance, the man who looked like a stubborn scholar was Yeon-wi.

Namgung Daesan’s face was distorted.

“house owner! How could this be?!”

“It’s not what I want to say.”

“what?!”

Yeon-wi radiated cool eyes.

Seeing those eyes, Namgung Daesan flinched involuntarily.

“The main house accepts guests, but it does not accept Muroebae. What is this about a person who is at least the head of the first male palace in Anhui?”

calm and cool Yan Wei’s voice and tone contrasted sharply with the fiery atmosphere of Namgungdae Mountain.

Namgung Daesan gnashed his teeth.

Even he, who is said to be the most hot-tempered in the Namgung family, did not dare to utter abusive language in front of Yeon-wi.

“I won’t talk too long! I believe that the head of the household heard all of the circumstances!”

“What are you talking about?”

“Are you pretending not to know? The daughter of the head of the household, seen by the children of the head of the household… … !”

“It’s not enough that the poor girl of your family mocked the head family, it’s the case of trying to kill my children.”

Namgung Daesan’s mouth fell open.

“What, what?!”

What would happen if frost sat on a thousand-year-old rock?

He spoke in a tone that cut off his age.

“I, I wanted to examine it properly.”
