Congressman, Live Again - Episode 49
Episode 49
I understand why those proud Ui-gak owners would give up on Yu-ho's words..
‘But I need Yuho.’
If there was someone to replace him, he would have done it a long time ago..
Jin Tianxi turned his head and looked at penicillin..
“Please let it have the proper effect. That's how it should be. If it doesn't work, how much more disgusting will it be with that personality?.”
Jin Cheon-hee prayed deep in her heart to a God she had never believed in..
* * *
syphilis.
There are many causes, but the biggest factor is infection through sexual contact..
Originally, it was a disease found in the West Indies on Earth, but it spread to Europe after Columbus and his party, who can be said to have opened the Age of Exploration, were infected. It was the established theory when Jin Cheon-hee was studying that it later spread throughout the world.…….
Nowadays, evidence has been found that it already existed in Europe 100 years before Columbus, so it is again unknown..
‘It doesn't matter to me either way.’
The problem is the cure for syphilis.
In this era, infection with syphilis usually resulted in death..
In addition, apart from the high mortality rate, treatment options are inadequate..
Extreme drugs containing mercury were often used as treatments, but they were not effective and often resulted in more painful deaths due to mercury poisoning..
As a result, syphilis eventually became a cursed disease that killed countless people until penicillin was developed..
It's the same in the world of the Hwa Empire..
There is no way to know whether it appeared in West India as in actual history, but it is true that syphilis exists, and it was a disease that still kills countless people within the Hua Empire..
incurable disease.
Naturally, Jin Cheon-hee's words to gather such syphilis patients spread throughout the royal palace..
“I believe in Confucius.”
Gung-gwi said so with eyes full of trust..
Wang Gaoyeon also clenched his fists..
“I want to help too. dad!”
“You rest. You're not completely healed yet..”
She resembled Gung-gwi's personality and had amazing execution skills..
In the past, I was a good daughter because I had to protect my father who was in danger, but now it was different..
Now that Gunggui’s life has stabilized. The age to find out what you want to do.
“But you shouldn't do anything until you're healed. That's the policy. If I break it, Mr. Gung-gwi will get scolded by my teacher instead? Why are you making your daughter work when she's not doing well?.”
Wang Gak-yeon's cheeks puffed out at Jin Cheon-hee's coherent words..
“I can help too…….”
Jin Cheon-hee laughed at those words..
“Hahaha, please help me when I get better. At that time, I would cry because there was too much work.?”
There is another reason why Jin Cheon-hee is so desperate to stop it..
‘I heard that a lot of people from Haomun will come... It's not good for children's education. Each Yuna…….’
Syphilis is a sexually transmitted disease.
Naturally, a large number of people from Haomun, a Safa people based at Qilu, would gather..
Jin Cheon-hee and Gung-gwi exchanged glances..
* * *
Haomun.
Sapada is in charge of brothels and bases in the world of martial arts..
There is no place where people live without alcohol..
Haomun always has a base where people gather..
No matter how hard a person is, when he drinks alcohol, his palate becomes lighter. They make money by selling the information they obtain, and sometimes they spread their influence by planting spies to distract people..
The problem is that the human rights sensibilities of this era are very different from those of modern Earth..
Most of Haomun's members are children who were sold at an early age..
Some are orphans from birth, but others sell their children to feed their poor families..
There isn't much difference between the two.
By judging the constitution and appearance, it is decided whether to use Hao Mun as a guard, a spy, or even as a discard card..
The children selected in this way learn the martial arts of Sapa and learn to dance and sing..
Because it’s sapphire, there are no lines..
Because they can die at any time, children live lives separate from the general world..
This is why once a question is always a question..
It is forever impossible to repay the debt incurred while being sold, and I have never learned any other means of making a living other than what I learned at Haomun..
‘They say the only case that works out well is becoming a high official's concubine..’
It is a place where gold powder tax cannot be collected..
“Please take care of me. Confucius.”
A man and woman wearing heavy makeup came in..
Although they were all beautiful, they were greatly damaged by syphilis. As I covered it up, my makeup became even darker..
Some people covered their faces with cotton thread, and many others had difficulty moving and were carried by warriors..
However, the unique smell was clearly that of a sick person, so all the members couldn't stand it and frowned..
Even in Wulin, Hao Wen always took on the most dirty work..
The treatment received by those who live there in Giru was obvious..
Only Jin Cheon-hee responded with a calm expression..
“Thank you for your precious step..”
“Anyway, it's a body that can't be bought for even a single coin. I'm just grateful that you wrote it like this. Huhuhu.”
It wasn't a prank to play on a child..
But in the world they lived in, he was also a fool..
Jin Cheon-hee responded like this:.
“I was planning to provide treatment in a medical room at the bottom of the mountain, but why did you come up in person??”
“What could be scarier than the human eye? Knowing that something is dirty and seeing it in person are different reasons..”
The Haomen Taoist people evaluated themselves like that without any hesitation..
she added a word.
“Master, you are truly an eccentric person. You're collecting dirty things for medicine..”
The horse had an edge.
Although he is a martial artist, he climbed the mountain in the body of a patient, so it was natural. However, it contained self-deprecation about their inevitable situation..
It was a strange twist.
Jin Cheon-hee answered calmly..
“It's okay if you don't believe that I will succeed in the treatment or not. I'll just do what I can.”
The patient's circumstances belong to the patient.
The doctor just does his best to provide treatment..
Haomundo members were amazed by Jin Cheonhee’s attitude..
Haomundo exchanged glances with each other..
‘I've heard that Baekrin's disciple is a weirdo, but it's true..’
‘Neither sympathizing nor ignoring…….’
‘Because he speaks so plainly, it’s hard to understand his true feelings..’
They are Haomundo who have been through all kinds of hardships..
Even to those people, Jin Cheon-hee was quite a different species..
It's strange that they went out of their way to cure syphilis, but they didn't ignore them because they were dirty people, and they didn't sympathize with them because their lives were pitiful..
“I couldn't make a clear statement. My name is Muhwa. Incinerator Lord. My younger brother's name is Muwol (無月). My brother and sister will lead the Haomundo who came with us..”
Fig said sweetly with a red smile.
Jin Cheon-hee asked.
“You both have symptoms of syphilis.?”
“yes. My siblings and I all got sick at similar times, although the severity was different..”
Jin Cheonhee nodded..
“All right. General Manager Yoo Ho. Please take everyone to the hospital room..”
With that, Jin Cheon-hee began her work..
* * *
“I've lived in a brothel all my life, but this is the first time I've seen a kid like that..”
“sister. You went too far with Baekrin’s incineration liquor..”
After being assigned a hospital room, Muhwa and Muwol went outside and had a conversation..
They are a brother and sister who were sold from a poor family..
Both siblings had outstanding beauty from a young age and were raised with great care in Haomun..
He was talented in dancing and singing, and was also good at painting and calligraphy..
He once rose to the position of Buntaju, but was relegated to the back room after contracting syphilis..
“Muwol. Why don’t you speak honestly now? you are fine.”
“You know what happens to patients with syphilis in Haomen. Who will take care of you without me?.”
“You are such a fool, Muwol..”
“You are such a fool. If we had run away together when we were told to run away, both my siblings and I would have been fine.…….”
Muhwa laughed for a while at those words..
“Didn’t your parents tell you that? Now, treat Haomun as your home. These are the people who caught our hands as we ran away and handed them back to Hao Mun..”
“sister.”
“If we run away, where will we go? And do you think Haomun will at least wave goodbye?.”
the wind blew.
The sound of bamboo was like the sound of rain..
Beneath her thick makeup, blisters, evidence of syphilis, were clearly visible..
“That Confucius…….”
“Let’s not have hasty expectations. Muwol-ah.”
“sister.”
she shook her head.
“It's probably just a young master's vacation. All we have to do is give up our bodies and steal the information..”
A request came to Hao Wen..
Investigation into the dynamics of Baeklin Uigak and investigation into young incineration stocks..
From the reputation of those around you to your medical skills. It’s okay even if you can’t figure out your weaknesses..
Find out as little as you can.
It was a fairly extensive request..
As always, the siblings do not know who made this request..
When it was Buntaju, there were still a lot of things coming in, but now it's just a throw away card..
That's why Muwol was desperate..
“A request is just that: a request. sister. How about focusing on treatment?.”
“Do you think that an incurable disease is an incurable disease for nothing? Muwol. You should stop taking care of me and do what you want to do..”
“Taking care of my sister is more important than making people laugh..”
“You're stupid..”
She closed her eyes after saying those words..
‘It's unlikely, but if the incinerator succeeds in the treatment. I am…….’
The thought ended there..
she sneered again.
‘I am still as stupid as ever. Even though I know there is nothing more foolish than dreaming a dream that will never come true..’
When she was young, she had many dreams.
The first dream I had was a dream of eating my fill of delicious food..
But that was something even Giru's most popular courtesans couldn't do..
It's not like you can sharpen your sword every day like other warriors in Kangho..
Because if you gain weight, you won't be able to gain weight..
‘Next was my dream of making a lot of money and becoming rich..’
But that was also impossible.
It was because it was Hao Mun who made a lot of money, not a courtesan..
For some reason, the more popular he became, the more debt piled up..
She realized that no matter how beautiful she became, she would never be able to escape debt..
So I changed the direction of my dream.
‘I also dreamed of getting out of here.’
She saw the runaway courtesan's fingers being pricked with an iron..
She and her siblings had to heat the iron together..
That was the example..
As she heated the soldering iron on the fire, she and her younger siblings cried..
Even now, there are children who wake up and cry..
Indu left scars not only on the hearts of the runaway courtesans but also on those who watched..
