The Grand Mudang Saga [Path of the Shaman]

Episode 454

The center of the sky is called Jamiwon.

The king of this land is called the Son of Heaven, and the palace where he lives is attached with the letter 紫 (紫), which is the first letter of Jamiwon, and gold (禁) to mean that unauthorized persons will not be admitted.

That is why it is called the Forbidden City.

True to its name, the Forbidden City dug a moat in all directions and built a high wall behind it to prevent enemies from entering.

The only place one could enter was the Wumun (午門), which was modeled after the Chinese character for Gyeong (冂).

Passing through that gate required only permission from the emperor, and no one was allowed to carry weapons or pass through on horseback.

Those in official uniforms gradually gathered in front of the gate.

He was a civil servant who was waiting for the gate to be opened at the call of the emperor.

The purpose is to attend the Daejeon Conference hosted by the Hana Emperor.

Jinmu, who was given the position of Udosa, had to attend, and the warriors under him were also called in recognition of their contribution to revealing the corruption of the ministers.

So Dong-bo, who was watching King Yeong’s side, joined after a long time, and Cheongsang, Cheongwoo, Neungseo-hyeon, Goe-chung, and Chun Woo-myeong and the warriors of the Eunwidan.

Except for those who went to the Tang family, all those living in Suncheon-bu along with Jinmu were present.

With the exception of Jinmu, all eyes were on them wearing clothes similar to official uniforms in a hurry.

“Your popularity is sky-high.”

“okay.”

Jinmu smiles at the young king’s words.

It was said to be popular as a joke, but what was in that gaze was fear, jealousy, criticism, and all kinds of negative emotions.

But no one was staring at him, just glancing at him.

It must be because he was afraid that he would fall prey to the guards if they made eye contact.

It was a proof that the Jinmu was as vicious as it was.

“It takes quite a while.”

“Aren’t there laws and procedures in the Heo Imperial Palace? It won’t be open until it’s time for the entrance exam, so even if it’s boring, just wait a little longer.”

“…”

King Young replied with a smile to Jinmu’s grumbling.

coo kung.

Before long, a crude noise was heard from the inside of the castle gate being unlatched.

That’s right.

As the gates began to open left and right, leaving long marks on the dirt floor, the interior of the Forbidden City was revealed.

Taehwamun could be seen in the distance, and in the clearing in front of it, armed officers forming golden waves were lined up tightly to the left and right, emitting ferocious spirit.

Looking at them, Jinmu raised one corner of his mouth.

The only Imperial Palace Guard allowed to arm themselves in this Imperial Castle.

The strongest military commanders, who were raised only to protect the emperor, were waiting for Manjo Baekgwan’s entrance exam.

Perhaps it was none other than the gwibi who prepared them.

The order must have been given by the emperor, but it must have been she who instigated it.

You prepared a lot. Are you going to kill everyone if you make a mistake?

While Jinmu stared at them for a while, tattoos and warriors lined up through the gate.

“Now let’s go in too.”

“I see.”

Jinmu finally took a step towards Hwangseong.

Come on!

In line with the ministers’ entrance exams, the left and right imperial guards all turned their bodies to face them.

In this case, there is no truth or anything.

There is only one road, and there are countless armaments on the left and right of the road.

If this is a battlefield, it is as if they are penetrating the middle of enemy lines.

When the attack begins, everyone who passes by will be skewered by that golden spear.

In addition, the inside was covered with thick stones, and not even a stone lantern or tree was planted on top of it.

The stone was laid to prevent invasion by digging the tunnel, and the intention was to prevent assassins from hiding as there were no trees or stone lanterns.

However, in the eyes of Jinmu, it was just a piece of shit.

It’s like they don’t know anything about the aesthetics of landscaping.

Aren’t they really crazy to decorate this wonderful place like this when it didn’t cost a penny or two to build a castle?

There was no garden or pavilion, so I couldn’t sit and drink and enjoy the excitement, and if there were no trees, there would be no shade, so it would be terribly hot in the summer.

Anyway, after passing through the vicious road created by the garrison, recalling the impressions of the imperial palace, I finally saw Taehwajeon, where the Daejeon meeting was held.

The inside was also full of imperial guards.

Ugh, this bitch was very determined, but she was determined.

How many have you prepared?

But it doesn’t matter.

Even by threatening the emperor’s neck…

“Seohyun.”

“yes.”

“Wait here with them. I will call you when the time comes.”

“…”

Jinmu arrived near Taehwajeon and gave an order to Neungseohyun.

Wi Jeong-pil and the Crown Prince disguised themselves as soldiers under Jinmu to avoid being discovered by others.

Their faces were covered with cotton, but no one paid attention to them because they knew they were from Murim.

“Aren’t you going in with me?”

“It’s difficult to find out first… First, I have to check.”

“All right.”

Jinmu did not intend to catch just one gwibi.

No matter how much corruption of the ministers of the court was identified, it is difficult to reveal the connection with the royal family.

In addition, if the crown prince was taken out from the beginning, the princess could be caught right away, but the possibility that the palace’s relatives were mixed among the ministers had to be kept in mind.

Should I just hit the head and finish what I started?

Beginning with the poppies, weed out all of them.

“When everyone enters the Great War, take a thorough look at the ministers. Even small changes should not be missed. In addition to the ones we investigated, there are probably those who colluded with the palace.”

“yes.”

Although he had issued an order before attending the Daejeon meeting, Jinmu, who warned him once again, moved toward Taehwajeon.

Either way, it’s far, far away.

Since running is only possible for those who are permitted to run, Jinmu walked a full distance of more than 100 feet and finally arrived in front of Taehwajeon.

Then, I looked up and looked at Taehwajeon, which was located at the place where three tiers were built.

the center of the golden star.

finally got here To end everything and start anew.

Jinmu stepped on the steps of Dapdo one by one and climbed slowly.

To devour the imperial palace like a savage dragon carved in the center of the stairs leading up to Taehwajeon Hall.

* * *

…I had to wait again.

The damn emperor hasn’t come yet.

It’s been a while since Manjo White House waited for the seat designated for each class.

What kind of hero is my guy in this situation?

Perhaps seeing that the princess is still here, it seems that she will come hand in hand with the emperor.

Being able to afford it means that I have bought time to prepare.

The inside of Taehwajeon was also guarded by the imperial guard.

Beyond the wide walls of Taehwajeon Hall, a deep spirit of anticipation could be felt. It seemed that archers were encamped.

what does that help

With just one shot to get rid of the courtship, you can cut off everyone’s waist.

In any case, Jinmu took a close look at the ministers who filled the inside.

Those who have even the slightest connection to the palace will surely respond.

With Cheongsang and Cheongwu next to Jinmu, Neungsuhyeon and Chun Woomyeong were placed at the center of Daejeon, with Sodongbo on the left and right near King Yeong.

“This is my seat…”

Several ministers protested against Jinmu and his party, who attacked their seats, but soon moved to another seat with bloody eyes.

With the exception of key positions, there are no assigned seats, so who will say what?

It was around the time when the boredom of Jinmu had reached its peak even after all the preparations had been completed.

Finally, a loud eunuch’s cry was heard from outside.

“Please, Your Majesty the Emperor!”

As if his voice was a signal, the civil servants shouted in unison, bowed their heads, and fell on their seats.

“Hurray, hurray, hurray!”

“…”

He is screaming.

There are old people who live a long life like Ungong, but even if you live until someone paints shit on the wall, it’s only a hundred years.

But Jinmoo also fell down.

First of all, it was because he was a servant of the emperor, Udosa.

Jinmu lowered his head and heard the sound of a wind chime announcing the emperor’s coming and a gigantic palanquin climbing the hill.

Anyway, it’s not like he’s showing off as a high-ranking guy, he’s just doing something that could have been done by walking.

What are the sins of the palanquins? The slope was also severe.

While Jinmu grumbled about his arrogance, the emperor got off the palanquin and walked in the center of the Munmu White House, which was seated on the left and right.

Sarak Sarah.

The yongpo made a pleasant sound as it dragged to the floor.

jerk jerk.

The light but powerful footsteps befitting an earthly king pierced his ears.

Deeply admiring the footsteps, Jinmu couldn’t overcome his curiosity and raised his head to look at the emperor.

The flesh rose thickly, but it was different from Chungwoo.

Do I have to say that I look chubby?

In the meantime, the walk with the back straight is full of dignity, and the natural gaze has an atmosphere that overwhelms everyone.

Jinmu’s eyes passed the emperor and turned to the side.

Consorts walking by the side of the emperor, supporting them…

Of course, they were wearing heavy make-up, wearing long skirts and wearing fancy crowns on their heads.

In addition, as she decorated her hair with various fresh flowers, her appearance was dazzling, and her pretentious expression overflowed with benevolence.

Damn bitch, his acting skills are at a very high level.

Yes, in the past, I would have been dazzled by that strangely attractive face and expression.

However, now she only looks like a crazy bitch with flowers in her hair.

Come on, Hwayang-ah.

I have prepared so many things for you.

Jinmu bowed his head again at the footsteps of the emperor and the queen passing in front of him.

Normally, it would have been enough to hide it, but now it was because I couldn’t control this sinister smile and eyes.

“Everyone raise your head.”

Soon after, the emperor, sitting on a high seat, gave an order with a voice full of dignity.

The ministers looked up to the statue as if they were of one mind.

“Has the Young King come too?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I am very happy to see Yongan.”

“My princess was amused by something new, so I lost my mind for a while. Don’t blame me too much.”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. My conviction is not what I meant.”

“Haha, what is a throw? What is the fault of that kind of criticism between you and me?”

“your majesty.”

The king bowed his head once again, as if embarrassed by the emperor’s wild laugh.

A brief silence followed with a gentle smile, and the Emperor’s mouth opened again.

“I heard that the Hwangseong has been noisy lately.”

“…”

Ha look at this?

Jinmu couldn’t hide his surprise.

The atmosphere of the battle changed in an instant as he put strength into his voice after he had been empty a moment ago.

Is this the emperor’s power to rule the world?

Although they were born as the same person, they became one dragon because they possessed the spirit of commanding the world.

It is said that there is no one under the amulet, but the old saying is not wrong.

Jinmu seemed to know where the feelings he felt from the crown prince came from.

The crown prince was a young dragon who was quite strong but not yet ripe.

However, the feeling the emperor gave was different.

Although he made an impression of being generous, the atmosphere created by his eyes and voice overwhelm others.

It’s really rare.

Didn’t rumors say he was an incompetent emperor who didn’t take care of affairs because he was swayed by a woman’s skirt?

Even while Jinmu was surprised, the emperor’s words continued.

“I couldn’t help but lament that the ministers in charge of the mediation had committed so many corruptions.”

At the gentle rebuke, the ministers who stood upright, starting with King Young, all fell on their knees and begged for guilt.

“Your Majesty, please punish your convictions.”

As if they had practiced, their voices shouted the same way, reverberating through Daejeon.

“no. How can you say that it is your sin? This is my great sin of not caring for the country.”

“Your Majesty, you are saying a thousand and one thousand words. How could that be your sin? Everyone lacks convictions…”

“Stop it. How can you not know my immorality?”

“Your Majesty…”

The King shook his head and let out a loyal voice, but the Emperor raised his hand to block his words.

“I felt a lot from this incident, so I’m going to take care of my affairs myself again. However, before that… I heard that there was someone who investigated and punished this mediation corruption case.”

“I am Jinmura, whom Your Majesty appointed as Udosa this time.”

The people gathered in Daejeon glanced at Jinmu at the King’s reply.

“Udosa Jinmu, step forward.”

“yes.”

Respectfully, Jinmu got up from his seat and went in front of the emperor.

This is the start.

From now on, I will dig up everything you have committed in detail and push it into the abyss.
