Congressman, Live Again - Episode 737
Chapter 737
Because word had been sent in advance that they would arrive at the royal capital, people had already gathered outside the castle gate..
‘It feels like a mix of East and West? It has a round roof similar to Wanong, but the color is different..’
It was a pretty roof.
‘I'm curious how the colors were applied. How does it come out so blue like the sky??’
The light blue roof under the sky was very beautiful..
If I had a modern phone, I would have taken a picture right away and used it as my wallpaper..
This is a world without photos or phones, so Jin Cheon-hee recorded everything as if she were copying it with her eyes..
The spicy smell of spices and the sound of words.
Even the volume of air touching the skin.
‘Now if I close my eyes, I can come here anytime.’
Hyeonwonjeondanshingong remembered everything..
From what I could see, a man dressed in elegant clothes had come out and was waiting for the group..
“Dear envoy of the Shang Dynasty, thank you for your hard work in coming this far. His name is Prince Radan..”
Even the language of the Chinese Empire.
Jin Cheon-hee was shocked by his polite demeanor. And I realized.
‘ah! The Hwa Empire is a gangster.!’
Tribute diplomacy).
Tribute diplomacy means that the Chinese Empire is treated as a superior state by neighboring countries and receives tribute from them..
The Sukshin people are a nomadic people, and they rarely gather in large numbers to begin with, so they are not recognized as a nation at all..
This is because it is viewed as a kind of tribe, not a country. So, wars occur often..
However, other countries around the Hua Empire have territory and their countries have existed for a long time, so they naturally do not want to go to war with the Hua Empire..
‘The Hua Empire has a gangster population..’
So, the pre-modern conventional diplomatic method.
They pay tribute and claim to be a subordinate country. This is tribute diplomacy!
That's why we welcome Jin Cheon-hee, who has officially brought in the guards..
It is for treating the merchant country..
‘this this… … . It's similar to when an envoy from the Ming Dynasty came and made a fuss during the Joseon Dynasty on Earth.?’
Korea is a country of records.
Even the envoys of the Ming Dynasty probably did not know that what they did on Mo Wol Mo Day would be stuffed into the Annals..
Since it is registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is taxidermied until the destruction of mankind..
‘Well, I have no intention of coming all the way to the Murim planet and making a fuss like that. Anyway, I think I understand why the Admiral told me to learn strange manners..’
Jin Cheon-hee got off the horse, gave a hug, and slightly lowered his head..
This is the etiquette that an envoy from the Hwa Empire, a Shang Dynasty, should show to a person from the Kingdom of Damjin, a lower nation, and it must be done in front of the king as well..
Officially, Jin Tianxi is someone who has received some of the emperor's authority..
You should never bow your head deeply!
“His name is Jin Cheon-hee, who holds the title of governor in the empire. Thank you for welcoming me here..”
“It is truly an honor for a person renowned for his faithfulness to visit my country. Eat it inside..”
The kiln was ready..
It was a palanquin that could seat two people on either side, and was carried by 16 people..
‘I think I saw this in a movie a long time ago... Was I the emperor of a certain empire that claimed to be generous?…….’
As I climbed into such a luxurious palanquin, Radan naturally climbed into the seat next to me..
I think it was probably made specially to greet envoys coming as diplomats..
When Jin Cheon-hee climbed into the palanquin, Hwang-gu naturally followed next to her..
On top of him sat Yeo Ha-ryun, carrying a black cat on his shoulder, very naturally..
The concussion suddenly became very small and climbed onto Jin Cheon-hee's shoulder..
“It's a very great beast. Even in our kingdom, we have never seen such a divine beast..”
“Ha ha ha ha ha. Our Hwanggu is a bit majestic..”
The dog received the praise, but the owner's mouth widens..
“Hwanggu, thank you. Thank you~”
Jin Cheon-hee imitated Hwang-gu and answered on his behalf. That's the way it is.
Beep!
Noejin got irritated as if asking why he wasn't praised..
I couldn't help it.
Its size has become smaller and its fur has turned black, making it easy to mistake it for a crow. As a result, it is difficult for people here to recognize me..
I thought about spewing lightning, but that seemed kind of lame to my spirit pride..
Boooooo~!
The trumpet sounds. While passing through the huge gate of the royal castle, a band came out and played..
Is it okay to do this even though it’s rinderpest? In my thoughts.
“By the way, Tae-soo Jin.”
“yes. Prince.”
“Is there a reason why you came separately from the guards??”
A sudden, stabbing attack!
‘also… … It's not a paper tiger.’
One country. These are people who have one huge group. It makes no sense to say that there is no spy network..
In addition, there was cooperation from the kingdom in catching rinderpest, so it was only natural..
“I also know a little bit about witchcraft, so I traveled around a bit to learn from him. I felt like it would be a nuisance if I moved with the guards, so I went alone..”
truth. But it wasn't the complete truth either..
However, the prince does not question further, but smiles strangely and nods..
“After all, he deserves to be called a saint. Come on, let’s go. I will guide you to the VIP room..”
The palanquin enters the royal palace..
* * *
Palace. The sun was already setting when we arrived at the VIP room..
“ah… … . I'm exhausted.”
“There are times when you get tired too..”
“I hate this kind of thing. I'm doing it because it's something I can't not do..”
“My brother is now a high-ranking official of the empire. You better get used to it.”
“Hey, it’s someone else’s business… … . is not it? Now that I think about it, something like this would happen because you are a small religious leader..”
“…….”
Yeo Ha-ryun smiled faintly instead of answering..
“okay. It must be different from when I moved alone..”
Jin Cheon-hee said that and rolled over on the bed..
This area is very beautiful and luxurious with its embroidery and carpets. Just lying on it feels luxurious..
“……Anyway, what should I do??”
“What do you mean??”
Jin Cheon-hee gave up on Yeo Ha-ryun's words and only said the main point..
“Should we investigate separately? I'm at the palace. you in the city.”
With just those words, Yeo Ha-ryun realized his brother's intentions..
There was no need for a long conversation between the two anyway..
“I guess that would be good. Because the brothers of our church are already in this royal capital..”
“good. Then I will ask you a favor..”
“i get it.”
Yeo Ha-ryun said that and sat down on the window..
“Brother, take care of yourself..”
“Let’s stop worrying.”
At that moment, Yeo Ha-ryun’s body falls backwards..
I was surprised and looked out the window to see that Yeo Ha-ryun had already disappeared..
“Hwiwoo~”
I don't know how a person made of flesh and blood can assimilate to darkness so much, but whatever. Because it’s Yeo Ha-ryun.
Jin Cheon-hee decided to think so..
‘ruler. then… … . Now I can rest today and meet the king tomorrow.?’
Jin Cheon-hee thought about how to make the presentation tomorrow to conclude trade on better terms..
No matter how important it is to treat people,.
I worked so hard, but I couldn't go back empty-handed..
* * *
“We welcome envoys from Shang Dynasty..”
King of Damjin Kingdom.
His name is Radant.
Since the prince's name was Ladan, Jin Cheon-hee thought that it was probably a form of inheriting the name of Dorimja..
“It is truly an honor to meet the benevolent King of the Damjin Kingdom..”
The old king smiled softly at Jin Tianxi’s words..
This is because Jin Cheon-hee did not speak the imperial language, but spoke fluently in the language of the Damjin Kingdom..
the king thought.
‘It is normal for envoys from the empire to act arrogantly, claiming that they are envoys from the upper kingdom. To the extent that they only use the language of the Chinese Empire..’
However, Jin Cheon-hee spoke directly in the language of the Damjin Kingdom and also praised King Radant himself as being benevolent, so I couldn't help but feel surprised and admirable..
“okay. What brought you to this kingdom? It is still too early to send tribute, but the situation in this kingdom is not very good..”
My house is ruined and there is nothing to eat, so why did you come??
We already know why we came.
Nevertheless, the reason I keep repeating this is because it is a formality in diplomacy..
“His Majesty, the Emperor of this Empire, is very concerned about rinderpest, a livestock epidemic, that is circulating in the Kingdom of Damjin. It was known that the minerals needed for the empire were produced in Damjin, so I was dispatched to resolve the rinderpest problem and facilitate trade..”
The eyes of the old and decrepit king give off a bright glow that is different from their appearance..
“Solving rinderpest? Your actions have already been reported... … . Do you really think rinderpest can be completely solved? It is a punishment and a disaster. It will only sink if you use the ritual of great magic... Is there a way to do that??”
great witchcraft!
Jin Cheon-hee also traveled around this kingdom, which is more than half of the desert and wasteland, and got a good idea of how this town works..
Beware of witchcraft!
There is definitely a type of magic that cures diseases..
These people are called healers, but the problem is that their ability to treat diseases is not that great..
This is because if one famous healer treats three critically ill patients a day, his or her skills will be depleted..
If a famous person can do that, what about an average healer??
For that reason, the healer from whom Jin Cheon-hee learned magic in the Kingdom of Dadu was definitely someone who revealed money, but his magic power was enormous..
‘So much so that Jashi admits it..’
In that sense, it is probably also possible to calm rinderpest with great magic..
‘In a country where human sacrifice is common, perhaps large-scale human sacrifice would be used..’
If you didn't know about witchcraft, you already know how witchcraft flows in this town through Jashi..
However, Jin Cheon-hee knows the future roughly by reading novels and has learned magic, so she knows that it is not proper quarantine..
‘Maybe it will happen again.’
It was so frustrating to change people and perform a spell, it was impossible to even succeed..
‘Is that the only way?.’
First, Jin Cheon-hee delivered the handout he had prepared in advance to the king..
“Please look at this first. majesty.”
This is statistics made up of basic knowledge about vaccination and its results..
However, the king answered:.
“I understand. I will have a subordinate review it later..”
It meant I didn't want to see it. And on the other hand…….
‘You're trying to commit human sacrifice..’
A state in which the mind is somewhat hardened.
I had to stop it somehow.
But how do you convince someone who has no intention of even looking at basic statistics?.
One thing is certain.
If you fail to persuade here, people will become firewood..
In the end, Jin Cheon-hee decided to bring out a secret weapon that has been around since ancient times..
“Would you please bring it to me??”
Jin Cheon-hee gestured back, and an attendant brought out the items. It was a centrifuge.
“What does it do??”
“Please take a look.”
Jin Cheon-hee even drew his own blood and put it into a cylindrical glass..
“Is it witchcraft??”
“Are you showing me a new spell??”
This is also the reaction.
Jin Tianxi's face was hot, but it was better than someone dying anyway, so she said with a shameless expression..
“that… … . Just look at this.”
I grabbed the handle hard and quickly turned it round and round..
As I added the internal energy and spun it around, the blood gradually began to separate into three layers. At first glance, it appears to be two layers..
