Warrior Grandpa and Supreme Granddaughter

Episode 370 Because it’s for the country (1)

Cheongsimru (清心楼) in the opening section.

This was a pavilion used as a banquet hall for officials, and was currently occupied by only two people.

They were none other than the yin and yang twin monsters sitting at the table where the tea table was set.

It was Buyun Wang Sa-pyeong who arranged the meeting with the provincial commander.

Wang Si-pyeong, who had made the appointment, went back first, and only Jo Son waited inside for the provincial commander.

“Ugh. “Why don’t you come like this?”

Yuseol, tired of waiting, was resting her chin and snapping her fingers on the table.

“It will come soon. Anyway, I was surprised that he would even think of asking for my last name outright. “Did you want to be a princess in a castle?”

“no. I asked Mr. Lim something before. “What is the most expensive house in the world?”

“Paedomun’s Imjeonse?”

“Yes. “In terms of value, the castle is the best.”

“That guy was just joking. “The castle is a place where only the lord designated by the imperial family can reside.”

Yu Seol said calmly, snapping his fingers as if it was no big deal.

“What do you think? Then why don’t you ask me to take you to Seongju?”

Jinsan Yu was speechless for a moment as if he was shocked.

It was absurd, but if you think about it, it wasn’t an absurd request at all.

From the provincial commander’s perspective, help from the martial arts forces would be desperately needed.

The theory is to bargain in return for that.

However, it was surprising that the distribution was larger than expected.

“OK. As expected, he is worthy of the supreme being of the martial arts world. “That way she will be our granddaughter.”

“Hi-Hi. “If you need anything, let me know.”

“no. “Let’s negotiate that first.”

While they were chatting, the door to the banquet hall opened and the person who had been waiting appeared.

The man wearing shining golden armor and a blood-red robe was the provincial commander, Hwang So-cheon.

His other identity, who holds real power in the country, was also the captain of Changryongdae.

“I made you wait a long time. Even if it wasn’t, I tried to look for it.”

“Us?”

Huang Xiaotian pulled out a chair across from him and sat down.

“exactly. “At this point, I was wondering what the intention was for killing the Murim Lord, but now the pieces are finally coming together.”

Hwang So-cheon also seemed to be closely watching the rapidly changing situation in the martial arts world.

Since the Murim Alliance, which had been holding the center of the martial arts world for so long, was reeling due to the Yin-Yang twin monsters, there must have been a lot of worries.

Jinsan Yu quietly folded his arms and closed his mouth. The intention was to delegate the conversation to the granddaughter.

“You understand now, right? “Who is trending?”

“I knew from the beginning. After listening to Buyun, it seems like he is trying to create a new alliance…”

“That’s right. That’s why I need a last name.”

The provincial commander, who expected to show disapproval, actually responded calmly.

“Before that, let me ask you one question. “Are you confident that you will be able to unite the strength of the Jungwon Murim?”

The question is whether it is worth investing in.

Yoo Seol slightly raised her chin as if she was confident and asked softly.

“Have you already forgotten? “It’s me.”

Hwang So-cheon’s worries did not last long.

Because the answer was decided from the beginning.

“hmm. Good. I agree with the argument that sex is necessary. “It was the right decision.”

Yu Seol tilted his head as if he didn’t know what it meant.

“What?”

“As you know, if Wulin falls, everything is over. “I also think it is better to use a fortress that is easy to defend in preparation for any possible danger.”

“So you’re saying you’ll do it?”

Huang Xiaotian nodded vigorously, as if he had made up his mind.

“Okay. “Even so, there is a castle that was recently built as a strategic location.”

“…Really?”

“That’s right. Come with me and see for yourself and judge for yourself.”

However, just because you have achieved success does not mean that you are ready.

It will take a huge amount of money to manage the castle and maintain the alliance.

Without a proper source of income, it was inevitable that this would be a burden.

Therefore, Yu Jin-san, who was watching, secretly sent a message to his granddaughter.

– baby. Looking at that guy’s reaction, I think I can rip it off a little more.

He immediately understood the story he heard from his grandfather and spoke straight to the point.

“But we also need funds.”

“hmm. It’s not enough to give up anger, it’s even money…”

“It’s about saving the country. “Can you give it to me?”

All of this was ultimately something that had to be persuaded by an audience with the emperor.

No matter how powerful Hwang So-cheon is, he cannot help but feel burdened.

“How much do you need?”

Yu Seol secretly looked to the right. This is because the necessary budget has not been estimated.

At that time, the grandfather peeked out his hand from under the table.

Five fingers.

It meant calling for 500 nyang of silver.

However, Yoo Seol, who interpreted the meaning differently, tightened his eyes and shouted.

“Five thousand nyang for the hermit!”

The hall was filled with silence for a moment.

“….”

You mean 5,000 cat with a hermit? It was more than the cost of maintaining the corps.

Hwang So-cheon leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes tightly.

It must be a headache to figure out how to persuade the emperor and ministers.

“I will definitely fight well. “If you just give me the money…”

Huang Xiaotian’s mind was wavering, but he couldn’t make a decision easily.

“Actually, I think it’s a bit of a burden. “The Murim Alliance has never made such a request to the imperial family.”

“That’s natural. What has the Murimmaeng done so far? “I did it all.”

Hwang So-cheon also understood it to some extent.

All of the masters of Soreoeumsa and Daramiryo who invaded the central plains were attacked by Eumgae.

As he thought about his achievements so far, he soon made up his mind.

“Okay. I will also provide you with the 5,000 nyang you mentioned. Instead, the subsidy is only for this one time, so you will have to be self-sufficient from then on.”

Yu Seol covered his face with one hand and turned his head.

Because I couldn’t stop laughing.

After laughing secretly for a while, he looked at Huang Xiaotian with a serious expression again.

“I promise. When can I show you my last name?”

“If it’s okay, I’ll show you today.”

There was no reason to hesitate. Cao Sun immediately followed Huang Xiaotian towards the place that would become the headquarters of the Tianyuhoe.

* * *

Hwang So-cheon’s light attack speed was not normal.

Even after running with the yin-yang pair for half a day, he didn’t seem to be tired.

The group was able to reach their destination before the sun set.

The first thing that caught my eye was the high wall built between the canyons of the two mountain ranges.

A moat, a pool of water, surrounded the front of the castle gate, and soldiers were controlling entry and exit.

“It is a natural fortress optimized for defense. What do you think?”

In response to Hwang So-cheon’s question, Yu Seol put her hands together with bright eyes.

“Wow~ It’s so cool!”

I seemed to quite like the appearance of the majestic castle walls and gate.

“It is relatively small in size, but it will be sufficient for the martial arts people to station themselves there and use it for defense.”

“Please show me the inside quickly.”

What’s the use of just looking at it? What was important was what it looked like on the inside.

As the group approached the castle gate, the soldiers reflexively blocked their path.

“You must reveal your affiliation and identity.”

Is it because Hwang So-cheon was wearing armor? The soldiers’ voices were very cautious.

“Everyone has worked hard. “I am Hwang Hwang-cheon, the leader of the Golden Army.”

The soldiers were startled and fell asleep at his one word.

Who would have known that the man who could be said to be the supreme commander of the military would suddenly appear?

The soldiers, their faces turning red, retreated to the left and right, pressing their fists to their chests.

“Meet the provincial commander!”

Huang Xiaotian nodded and stared at the gate.

“Could you please open the door?”

I couldn’t even dare to ask why.

The soldiers who received the provincial commander’s order sent a signal straight to the top of the castle wall.

Soon, the gate began to slowly open with a heavy roar.

Dedeudeudeuk-!!

Huang Xiaotian stretched out one hand forward and spoke behind his back.

“Please eat inside.”

I followed him and walked into the Yin-Yang Twin Demon Island.

Perhaps because it had only recently been completed, no people were visible.

But the inside was full.

An amazing sight spread out in all directions along the wide boulevard shaped like the letter 十.

On the left, houses that looked like private houses were neatly built, and on the right, there was a complex that could be used as a market.

As we went further inside, we could see military camps and training grounds where soldiers were stationed.

Yu Seol couldn’t keep his mouth shut.

“Wow… is this the castle you’re giving me?”

Huang Xiaotian hesitated for a moment and responded with a slightly troubled expression.

“As you know, according to national law, individuals cannot own castles. So, strictly speaking, it is leased by the government.”

But his words did not even reach Yu Seol’s ears.

This is because I saw the main hall located in the innermost part of Cross Street.

It was a palace of such enormous size that one could only see it in a palace.

“What is that?”

“This is the government office where Seongju conducts business together with government officials. “You will be staying there from now on.”

Jinsan Yu couldn’t help but laugh as he looked at his granddaughter with her mouth open.

Doesn’t she look like she’s a princess?

“Looking at the structure, it looks like a big city in miniature.”

Hwang So-cheon responded to Yu Jin-san’s muttering.

“You saw it right. “It’s a castle modeled after Luoyangseong Fortress in size.”

“It’s barely enough to do the work, but it’s like this…”

The site was large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

No matter what I did in the future, I felt like I would have no shortage of things here.

“Then let me show you the back.”

It seemed like there was something behind it too.

Yu Seol followed him and moved behind Jeong Cheong with her heart pounding.

A completely different world unfolded there.

I could see a flower garden and a walking path with flowers in full bloom, and inside there was a pond with a ferry boat floating around.

It was so beautiful that it could be said to be a place where immortals hang out.

“You are so pretty!”

Unable to bear it at all, Yu Seol kicked off the ground and flew up.

Taaa-!

The face was full of happiness as it flew over the pond with a bright smile.

After taking a quick look around, I came back with a satisfied look on my face.

“If you don’t like this place, just tell me. “Because even Saturn and Mt. Sanctuary have empty places.”

An earthen fortress blowing up dust and a fortress built on a remote mountain? Yu Seol said firmly.

“What do you mean? “I have already decided this is my home.”

At that moment, a faint smile appeared on Huang Xiaotian’s face.

“I thought well. “I feel reassured that the fortress built as a last bastion is the supreme ruler of the martial arts world.”

“What do you mean?”

“If this castle is breached, there will be no defense line up to the imperial palace. “It is beyond words that it is the most important strategic point in the country.”

“Don’t worry. “If anyone comes into my house, I will break their legs.”

Hwang So-cheon also nodded as if he was satisfied with Yin Kai’s confidence.

“So, I need one condition.”

At that moment, the smile disappeared from Yu Seol’s smiling face.

“What are the conditions all of a sudden?”

“Wouldn’t Your Majesty be anxious if the martial arts people gathered in the front yard of the capital?”

“So?”

“Please allow some of the gold army to be stationed here. “We will only send a very minimal number of people.”

“why? Are you trying to spy on me?”

Huang Xiaotian shook his head and said.

“It’s just an excuse to persuade Your Majesty. “No matter what Cheon Yuhoe does here, Jingun will never interfere.”

“Hmm…”

Yoo Seol still didn’t let go of his suspicions.

Sensing this, Hwang So-cheon tried to persuade him again.

“In order to maintain a castle of this size, we need to allow ordinary people, including merchants, to come and go. “If there were no soldiers to maintain security, who would want to come to a lawless area full of martial people?”

After thinking for a moment, Yoo Seol could hear his grandfather’s voice.

– It seems to be a condition where there is nothing to lose.

In Yoo Seol’s opinion, it didn’t seem that bad.

In order to create a small street and a market complex with guesthouses and teahouses, we need to invite the general public to come as well.

It seemed that if Geumgun helped with security, people would be able to come and go with peace of mind.

“great! “There are no other conditions, right?”

Huang Xiaotian nodded with a brighter face.

“That is enough. “Before you leave, I have something to ask you.”

Yu Seol, who was in a good mood, nodded willingly as if he was being kind.

“What are your questions? I’ll tell you everything.”
