play.

“Stab with one, cut with two! One, two!”

“Your arm is going down! Raise it! Are you still elite soldiers?”

“Can you defeat a thief with that kind of skill?!”

The dungeon was filled with loud shouts. Soldiers with blue bands on their arms were diligently engaged in military training following the shouts of a fierce-looking general.

“hmm….”

The black-haired woman looking down at them from the castle wall closed her eyes while touching her gray hair next to her bangs.

“…It’s shabby.”

The woman twisted her white hair and pulled it forward. Originally, she had neat and beautiful black hair, but due to hard work over the past few years, her hair had turned white.

It was very awkward to have only a portion of the hair turn white, but it was also strange to dye the hair completely black.

So she decided. Let’s leave this gray hair alone from now on, but make sure it doesn’t cause headaches.

For example, let’s personally repel the remnants of the Yellow Turban Red Army and the Black Bandits who are infested with music.

“They too will die if I make a mistake. But the number of soldiers is so small… I wonder if we can win. hahahaha.”

“Don’t say that, General.”

Sunuk, a woman dressed as a civil servant, bowed to her.

“If they find out that Jo Maeng-deok said that, the generals will stand up immediately. Jo Maeng-deok is not the person to say such weak things.”

“It’s too much. Are you saying I don’t even have time to be a woman? I don’t even have time to be sentimental. It’s a shame.”

Jo Maeng-deok – The women next to Sun-wook laughed at Jo Jo’s joke. A tall, sharp-looking woman with a sharp appearance and a frivolous woman with somewhat disheveled clothes loosened her grip on Cao Cao.

“I told you. Sunuk is so stiff that he can’t tell the difference when he’s around women.”

“That’s right. People can’t live in tension all the time, right? Relax your mind. Take a deep breath. Breathe, breathe, sigh.”

“…Jungwook, Kwak. You.”

Sunuk frowned.

“Heuksanjeok right now….”

“Stop!!”

A commotion echoed from beneath the castle walls. The four women on the castle wall were startled when they saw the soldiers blocking the stairs and the woman cutting them down.

“assassin…?!”

“Is it basic to assassinate these days to kill so openly?”

“It’s more of a suppression than an assassination. They’re coming to take it down.”

“hmm.”

Cao Cao frowned at the sight of his soldiers falling. Then, my eyes widened when I saw that the small person wielding the sword was a woman.

“Who is it?”

“I don’t know the details, but his sword-wielding skills are amazing. He seems to be an expert with a sharp sword.”

Clap.

“The generals below have noticed. However, it will take time to come up. Please go back.”

Jeongwook pulled out the sword on his waist. Although she had the body of a woman, she was quite a sword wielder and had skills similar to those of the elite soldiers in Dunyeong.

“I will protect you. Munyak, Bonghyo. Take your lord with you and go.”

Now that the guards near Cao Cao are being brutally attacked by the sharp sword master, Jeong Wook is the only one who can protect Cao Cao.

“Okay, just give me the knife and you go back.”

“Ah, master!!”

“It’s okay. If I don’t protect my people, who will protect me?”

Jo Jo took the sword from Jeong Wook and pointed it forward.

“And I use a sword better than you, so I have to protect you.”

“…No shame.”

“It’s okay. I should win that one. Huh.”

With a much neater posture than Jeongwook, she aimed her sword with sharp force.

“Who are you?”

“…Seowonjik!”

After breaking through the guards, she called herself Seowonjik. She must have realized that she couldn’t deal with JoJo on her own, and she began to look him up and down with a nervous face.

“Why did you attack my soldiers?”

“My soldier? Are you in charge of this place?”

“The person in charge here?”

“General, take that right away…!”

“Ahahahahaha!”

Jojo laughed, holding his stomach with one hand.

“You’re in charge! That’s right, you’re in charge. You’re in charge of the soldiers you subdued. So, what brought you here?”

“I’m looking for…someone.”

Something is wrong.

Seo Won-jik bowed with that expression.

“But the authors said they couldn’t do that without revealing their identity, so they stopped me and tried to catch me by threatening me as I was alone.”

“It’s probably a lie. There’s no reason to come up here swinging your sword at the soldiers. The only people here, on this wall, are the general and us, right?”

“Huh? Well, that can’t be possible…”

Seowonjik looked at the net in confusion.

“I’m sure the soldiers thought Sunmun Yak would be here….”

Soonmunyak.

inspection.

“…I can’t believe you were trying to meet a bureaucrat. You must have been quite busy? hahahaha.”

“hahahahaha! I was wondering whose guest it was, and it turned out to be Munyak’s guest!”

Sunwook’s face turned red and he lowered his head. Jojo went back to Sunuk and tapped his shoulder.

“It seems like the person I’m recommending this time is quite unique. Is he a general? Competent talent is always welcome!”

“…I’m sorry. I don’t know.”

“what?”

Jojo’s expression changed suddenly. Sunuk stepped forward with a stern face.

“You said you came to me, so I will solve it.”

Sunuk stood in front of Seowonjik. He glared venomously at the embarrassed Seo Won-jik and looked her up and down.

“Why did you come to me?”

“Uh, that…”

Seo Won-jik, along with Sun-wook, began to pay attention to Jo Jo.

Seeing Sunwook, whom he was supposed to be looking for, behaving politely towards Jojo, and seeing Jojo naturally treating Sunwook poorly, he tried to take out the item in his arms.

“He… came from Jingzhou.”

“what?”

Sunuk moved forward without realizing it when he heard the word Hyeongju.

“In Jingju? Are you sure that that person is…?”

“for a moment.”

“Sister, calm down. He might be an assassin, right?”

If it weren’t for Jeong-wook grabbing Sun-wook’s wrist and Gwak-ga blocking her path, she would have tried to approach Seo Won-jik right away.

“Whenever the topic of Hyeongju is mentioned, my sister’s eyes roll. Did you hide your brother-in-law there?”

“…….”

“Oh, I’m sorry. Did I cross a line?”

Guo Jia trembled and took a step back. Jeongwook glared at Seowonjik and pointed with his chin.

“What do you have in your arms?”

“…It’s a bamboo can.”

“Bamboo knives? Spread them out on the floor. How do you know there’s a knife inside?”

“Uh, tell this to Mr. Munyak directly….”

“Wen Yak, are you okay?”

“…….”

Sunuk’s expression became serious.

She kept repeating ‘Jeongju, Jyeongju’ with her mouth.

“Can I open it?”

“Oh, I guess not….”

“Moon Yak?”

“…Gye, it’ll be okay, right? It’ll be okay. I’m not the type of person to write something like that now. Um, so, uh, if I can open it, I’ll have to check the contents before I can answer…”

“If you open it, you will see everything. What are you talking about? Sister, is something broken?”

“No, that’s….”

Jerk, jerk.

Cao Cao immediately approached Seo Won-jik and stretched out his hand toward the bamboo pole.

The distance was long enough for the assassin to take out the knife hidden in the bamboo holder and stab him, but Cao Cao boldly accepted the bamboo holder.

“Wenyak, if it’s not a secret letter, can I open it?”

“It’s not a secret letter, but….”

“Then is this a love letter to someone who lives in Jingju?”

“ah!”

Seowonjik clapped his hands in surprise. Jojo raised the corners of his mouth, and Sunuk’s hands and feet began to tremble.

“…Keuhum.”

“Hey, it’s a love letter! A man doesn’t know the mood. That kind of thing is made of silk and sings about love-”

“I am against your idea. Dongtak will be destroyed within a year.”

Saaa-

As soon as Cao Cao finished speaking, a wind blew on the castle walls. Jeongwook and Gwakga took a step away from Sunwook.

“What is this?”

“…I just asked an acquaintance for advice.”

“Advice. Interesting.”

“Uh, wasn’t it a love letter…?”

The position of Seowon was also solidified. While everyone was tense, the only one who was calm was Jojo, who read the letter.

“If Dong Zhuo dies, it will most likely be assassination. Or he will gain weight and die suddenly due to obesity. If assassination is the most likely, Changan will collapse due to internal strife. In the meantime, we will have to quickly eliminate the Black Mountain bandits.”

“General, he…”

“Truly trample on those who are considered evil among the Black Bandits. And embrace the Black Bandits appropriately and use them as farmers. In times of emergency, they can also be used as soldiers. Interesting, fun. Hmm, Sunuk, who is this guy?”

“…He is called the Golden Sun.”

Sunuk finally opened his mouth. Her frown frowned, but Cao Cao just smiled and continued reading the bamboo script in silence.

“What are you doing?”

“If you are going to serve either Yuan Shao or Cao Cao, serve Cao Cao.”

“what?”

“That’s what he said before I commissioned him.”

“…Interesting. You chose me over Yuan Shao? Why?”

Cao Cao licked his appetite and continued reading the bamboo script. Seowonjik was frozen as he peeked at the contents of the bamboo jar from the side.

“He said that a general would be better suited to carry out his agenda than Yuan Shao.”

“why?”

“Yuan Shao may think of me as one of many strategists, but the general said he will use me as a soldier.”

“The reason I chose Jo Maeng-deok is not because Jo Maeng-deok is better than Wonwoncho, but because Sunmun Yak can be active? Hmm… It’s worth secretly exchanging letters like this. I guess he’ll become a nobleman. hehehe.”

Jo Jo folded the bamboo stick and handed it to Sunuk.

“I think we should watch it together next time. So, who lives there? Oh, no. You said you were Seowonjik, right?”

“yes yes!”

Seowonjik quickly straightened his posture. Cao Cao touched his lips with his thumb and pointed to the bamboo stick.

“Did you tell me to bring you an answer?”

“Yes. I’ll give it to you and make sure you get an answer….”

“Then where should I wait? Follow me. I’ll go to the government office.”

Cao Cao turned his gaze toward the other side of the castle wall with a stern expression.

“I never thought I would receive advice about Jo Maeng-deok’s birth path from someone else’s love letter.”

“Well, the love letter is….”

“Moon Yak. This handwriting is male, right?”

“…yes.”

“Please come here sometime… no, write a reply asking me to come up this time.”

Jojo licked his lips and looked south.

“Let’s take a look at your face. I want to ask you seriously. To the unknown man who recommended Sunmun Yak to me.”

“…….”

“Why did he tell me to follow me and not Wonwoncho? What on earth did he believe in me and why did he tell me to follow me? A person with this kind of insight looks at me….”

JoJo clenched his fists.

“What will the future be like for me, Jo Maeng-deok?”

I supported her because she was a woman.

“Oh, by the way, could that man… Wen Yak, be the secret husband you left behind in your hometown? Or a bachelor? … Is he a married man?”

“…….”

Sunwook could not bear to say anything.
