New Vengeful Life - Taekook
Shielding
His only elder brother was still alive!
In this world, he was no longer a person without someone to depend on. In this lifetime, there was still time, and he was determined to help Namjoon rewrite the ending to his past unfortunate and violent death!
With this thought, the anguished worrying and melancholy of the past few days dispersed and in its place was the rising of an abundant will to fight.
If in this life, Namjoon was alive and well, then this pair of siblings must go forth and ensure that all of their enemies from their previous lifetime die tragically. A debt of blood must absolutely be paid back in blood!
Xia yan can plot thousands of times but Jungkook can save himself only once. So he must give his best for it. He can and he will go to any extent to save himself cause its matter of his life.
Jungkook abruptly stood up again.
Jeon jungkook
Since that’s the case, there are some things that need to be prepared ahead of time. ( eyes mesmerizing )
Jeon jungkook
Baek, you go out and employ a couple of helpers. Just use those refugees that have come from outer regions.
Jeon jungkook
Guarantee them full meals as wages. Go and buy a big cauldron. ( directs with a serious expression )
Shi Zhang
Master... why, what for all this?
Jeon jungkook
I want to...
Jeon jungkook
bestow tteokguk.
After putting the (chess) pieces in place, the time had finally come to execute the planned strategy.
In the capital, there was an ever increasing number of refugees, and still larger groups kept pouring in, shrouding the city under the cover of civil unrest.
Commoners were darting quickly about on the streets, ashen-faced. Many bore starved bodies, hovering outside noblemen’s residences, in the hopes of obtaining a meal for running an assigned task.
The refugees were no different.
Those that were strong and robust were robbing people on the streets in broad daylight.
The city garrison guards were kept busy day-and-night, however, the local constabulary was unwilling to apprehend and throw these ‘robbers’ into prison — as even prisoners needed food rations.
Even though the situation was as such, the Emperor had not deported nor banished those refugees.
However, with the present circumstances, the Emperor was not in a good frame of mind. Everyday, hundreds of court officials attended court in fear and trepidation.
There were still some upright and honorable ministers that were concerned for the welfare of the people, making suggestions to distribute provisions to aid the disaster.
This further incurred the Emperor’s wrath and displeasure as the national treasury was already empty.
Some time ago, the last batch of disaster relief funds had depleted the national treasury. Moreover, this year’s farm crops were destroyed, so there was nothing to contribute to taxes.
Then, during this tumultuous time, someone set up a tent and began to distribute provisions.
Naturally, the commoners and refugees were jubilant in believing that the imperial court had not forgotten to care for the people, and thus rapidly spread the news.
The food tent was simply erected.
On one side were people distributing food and on the other side were people standing by frames that supported a huge cauldron cooking congee, promising that there would not be a shortage.
The queue was so long that it filled up and almost blockaded two city streets.
A total of eight persons were guarding the cauldron, and these eight people were strong and formidable men of valor. Their statures were all tall and beefy, each having a brutish appearance.
The people distributing the congee was an amiable looking women.
Shi Zhang
There has been a change to our current situation, the flooding has created havoc in our land, and all of us are having a difficult time during this situation. ( shouts to the public)
Nam Seok
Our family’s General sympathizes with the people, and has specially spent half of his family’s fortune to exchange for provisions to distribute and share with everyone. ( shouts along )
Shi Zhang
From today onwards, every morning we will be here to distribute congee and everyone will get a bowl, but only... a... bowl... each.
Shi Zhang
It’s not easy to do something significant in this world, however the General has said that if the funds from the first half of this fortune are used up....
Nam Seok
.....he will take out the remaining half for the emergency relief of the people as well. ( shouted and said while serving the broth )
Nam Seok
So everyone, we sincerely appreciate your understanding.
A refugee - Daring to ask this madame, who’s your family’s General?
Nam Seok
My residence is....
Nam Seok
General Park's manor... ( looked at Shi-Zhang with a smile who winked back )
Public - Many thanks to General Park for your benevolence.
Public - General Park is indeed a hero.
There were many voices of admiration and just beyond the masses of people collecting their congee, there was a horse carriage parked.
Baek parted the curtains of the carriage to steal a peek and with elation, he spoke in a quiet voice...
Baek ( yeonjun)
this has really gone well. ( whispers happily )
Jeon jungkook
( smiled as he sat back inside the carriage and observed the surrounding )
Not far from the carriage, there stood another person. His slender lithe physique, clothed in black, cut a swath through the landscape distinguishing himself above others.
At this moment, he was calmly observing the people queuing for their congee, and a trace of deep thought passed through his beautiful eyes..
Kim Taehyung
Go investigate that servant woman. ( ordered in his heavenly voice )
Jimin
But she said she is from the General Park manor ? ( says as he stood beside Taehyung )
Jimin
Do you guess she lied?
It was shocking then too and its shocking today also..
Who in this world today or then will be ready to show some altruism? And why will they show? This fcking world is loaded with piles and piles of greed, lust and jealousy.
Why the fck will some one be generous enough to show some humanity?
Humans had this funda since ages...
Don’t sacrifice yourself too much, because if you sacrifice too much there’s nothing else you can give and nobody will care for you.
They believed themselves to above all. They believed as they are born homosepians, if they are satisfied then humanity is satisfied...
Moreover, these days within the capital there was such a shortage of grain. To provide a bowl of congee on a daily basis, if it was in the past it would not have been much to rave about, however, currently, this is by no means a small feat.
Taehyung was reticent, and in his eyes appeared the image of Jungkook with his indifferent smile.
He leaned back on a pillar beside as his eyes travelled to a carriage parked little away from the scenario.
His lips curved into a smile and he bit it from a corner as he spots a very pretty boy who was peaking out if the carriage window with a innocent and bewitchingly beautiful face that had a pout.
Over a month ago he had made an effort to purchase most of the city’s grain, was it for such a day as this?
He had a hunch that with regards to this matter, Jungkook most definitely had a hand in it. However, over a month ago, it had only started raining for a few days, so how did he know that there was going to be devastating floods?
He frowned as this thought came to his mind while his eyes still fixed in the pretty young master.
Within the General's manor .
General Park Seo-Bak was sitting in his study and even though he was around sixty years and had seen the passing of time, he still appeared to be hale and hearty, and brimming with vitality.
He had an angular face and a stern look. At a glance, one could see that he was a military general who had spent a long time on the battlefield.
His three sons were currently standing before him, their faces bearing identical expressions of grave solemness.
General Park ( father of Minji)
Yesterday Old Duke Jun revealed some news to me after the imperial court was dismissed.
General Park ( father of Minji)
Eighth Prince is preparing to soon deal with the Park family. ( says in his deep scary tone )
Park family’s Third Young Master, Park Na-ggeum whose temperament was volatile burst out.
Park Na-ggeum
Father, we aren’t afraid of him.
Park Na-ggeum
The righteous will not cower from a crooked shadow. If he has the means, then he can just come at us.
Park Na-ggeum
Our Park family can’t easily be shaken by a mere prince like him. ( says angrily )
General Park ( father of Minji)
Hold your tongue!
General Park ( father of Minji)
For Old Duke Jun to say this, it would indicate that this matter is perilous.
Second Young Master Park , Park il-nam , had a fair and handsome appearance and a scholarly disposition.
Park il-nam
You should already be aware what type of person Kwang Bogum is.
Park il-nam
He will definitely not use the usual methods that are fair and aboveboard. ( says with a frown calmly )
And standing beside was eldest Young master Paek, Park Seo-jun.
Park Seo-jun
What Il-nam says is true, but why would Eighth Prince suddenly think to target the Park family? ( said in a serious tone )
Park Seo-jun
He has not eliminated the powers of Fifth Prince, and we are in support of Crown Prince...
Park Seo-jun
...so why would he suddenly act without consideration? ( grips his swords handle )
General Park ( father of Minji)
I’m afraid that they are ready to wage war. ( traces his fingers on a sword infront )
General Park ( father of Minji)
His Majesty had been shielding Crown Prince for many years, but based on Eighth Prince’s ability and wisdom....
Park il-nam
Then, what should we do? ( says calmly )
General Park ( father of Minji)
Old Duke Jun has adamantly refused to disclose even a sliver of information. ( sighed )
Park il-nam
Currently the population of refugees has steadily increased in the capital and the rain doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.
Park il-nam
Moreover, His Majesty has appointed Eighth Prince and the Choi family to manage and control the reservoir.
Park il-nam
I’m sensing that it is not as simple as it looks. ( his appearance of someone very wise )
Park il-nam has been fighting and winning many undercover and secret battle since a very young age , as such he had a natural perceptivity toward danger. It was a military man’s intuition.
As they spoke, suddenly a flustered manservant came running.
Servant - Old Master, something has happened!
Park Seo-jun
What happened?
Servant - There’s someone distributing Tteokguk within the city, a bowl everyday, but under the banner of our General manor .
General Park ( father of Minji)
What? Seriously? ( shocked and annoyed )
Park Na-ggeum
This can’t be? Father, is this the handiwork of Eighth Prince? Has he lost his mind? ( said angrily )
Park il-nam
Do we know the person? ( asked the servant )
The servant shook his head in denial.
Servant - The staff from the manor has gone to take a look, and none of them recognise the person.
Servant - However, those people didn’t do anything else beside distributing tteokguk .
Park Seo-jun
Father, should I go investigate? ( asked while gripping his sword )
General Park ( father of Minji)
No..
General Park ( father of Minji)
There’s something fishy about this situation, let’s wait out a few days and see.
It can be concluded with absolute certainty that the person distributing the Tteokguk was not from the General manor, so what was the purpose behind the other party’s use of the manor's name.
Was it one of Bogum's men or someone else? If it was Bogum what was he planning?
But if it was another person, to be able to come up with such a huge quantity of provisions at this time, just what kind of backing did they have and what were their motives?
Whatever the case, with regards to this matter, they could not afford to act blindly without thinking.
Park Seo-jun
Send few people and enquire about this matter. And ask who ever the person is behind this.. to visit the Park manor. (he orders his subordinates)
And following Seo-jun's orders, his men went away to the distribution place at once. The distribution was getting almost done when the men reached. The poor refuges were still crowded I the area as some lined to get their shares and some sat on the ground there itself to have their stomach filled. The Park family gaurd felt some what relieved inside, seeing the poor getting some help, but he was here for some serious business. He can't just get distracted.
Inside the carriage parked on the road side.. Jungkook sat upright when the Park family gaurd came to his vision. He could recognize it because of its uncommon and unique outfit that was possessed by the Parks only. He signaled Baek and asked him to carry out the plans further. After all, he was waiting for this opportunity itself.
Baek ( yeonjun)
( he was dressed little highly today. He was not in his regular clothes. He stepped out of the carriage, cleared his throat and put on a facade of a hauty noble bearing and walked towards the guard)
Park family guard
(he spots the well dressed Baek and thinks him to be the man behind all this and approached him )
Park family guard
Excuse me gentleman..
Park family guard
Are you a young master? Which family do you belong to?
Baek ( yeonjun)
No.. am no Young master. Am just- wait. Who are u? And why are you asking me all these?
Park family guard
I'm a subordinate of Master Park Seo-jun, Eldest Young master of Park family. I'm here to do enquires about the person who has benevolently provided food to the refugees under our family banner name.
Park family guard
It's been a good work but we do not wish to take false credit. Our family has no hands in this merit work, so we do not wish to take the credit and get involved. So I just wanna know who is the noble person behind all this and invite him to Park manor for a proper discussion on the behalf of my master.
Baek ( yeonjun)
So you are here to invite my master to your Park family house. Don't u fear that we might be harmful or there is some scheming behind?
Park family guard
We hope there is no such intention from your side. Park family knows to defend well and it stands upto the name and honor of General Park. (says proudly)
Park family guard
We just want a mutual cooperation, a clear discussion and no misunderstandings on this matter. I can assure on the behalf of my master that we have no ill intentions and we mean no harm.
Park family guard
Please convey my regards to your young master and pass him the invitation. I hope u consider this.
Baek ( yeonjun)
Okay. Then inform the Park family that my Young master will be accepting this invitation and visit your family day after tomorrow for further talk. I give u my word on the behalf of my master.
Park family guard
( he bows, takes a final look at the surrounding and leaves )
The day after tomorrow...
The rain had stopped for sometime but the sky wasn't clear yet. The black clouds floated all above the sky like patrol gaurds as if guarding the Kwang Nation. Last night it had only drizzled a little and the ground was still wet and muddy at certain places. The nature was at its best, showered and fresh looking all green and lusful but still the calamity was ugly at its own places and beautiful at his own.
Jungkook had got up early in the morning today. After all, he had an important visit today. He had waited for it since his past life. He was not very excited but a deep emotion and a lots of hidden thoughts swirled around in him. He had to leave for the general manor after the breakfast. He need not take any permission because none in the manor ever cared of where he came and went. And also if Jeon Junghoon would have the slightest of hint that he was going to the Park manor, he would put his all to stop Jungkook. So he had prepared his carriage secretly and would leave without notice too.
Compared to the refinement of the Jeon manor, the General manor seemed more imposing and splendid. Upon a glance, the bodyguards in the manor appeared extremely bold and powerful.
As Jungkook and his entourage walked past them, he could not resist casting stealthy glances over at them and at some point he watched all around mouth wide like baby. While Shi-Zhang and Baek were both somewhat nervous, Bong yumo’s body had been trembling nonstop throughout their walk into the manor. The guards in here seemed as if they were facing a great enemy with how they treated him and he thought that if they were a threat, the guards would be more than capable. Sitting on the main seat, General Park completely and naturally emanated an air of a General; this was the oppressive atmosphere that he had cultivated through the innumerable battles he had experienced and borne through like a blood-laden baptism. Park Seo-jun , Park Il-nam , Park Na-ggeum - these three people sat at his two sides. Seo-jun was upright and steady, Il-nam seemed wise, farsighted and shrewd whilst Na-ggeum appeared confident, free and unrestrained. At a glance, these three sons of the Park family actually seemed to be men of extraordinary talent. These four people present, Park General and his sons, had all frowned as they looked towards the doors of the hall. Then they saw a young boy dressed in blue clothes walking in unhurriedly from outside. At a rough estimate, this young boy seemed to be only in his late teens. Yet, he was born with such astonishing beauty. His facial features were extremely bright and beautiful yet they did not seem overly frivolous. Instead, there was a certain sort of calm to his beauty. However, what was most shocking was not this at all. General Park was looking at him in astonishment while his three sons abruptly sat upright as they too stared at him closely. Step by step, as Jungkook got closer, General park slowly straightened as his eyes stared widely. His lips could not help but tremble as he cried out in a low voice...
General Park
Min ji.... (he whispered on his own being baffled)
Park Seo-jun
( his eyes widened with shock as he stood up )
Seo-jun and the rest had long since been dumbstruck.
If one did a comparison, Jungkook bore an uncanny resemblance to Min-ji's appearance. Too alike, he was too alike. Even though Jungkook had only inherited sixty to seventy percent of Park Min-ji's features, to those of the male dominated General manor, Jungkook looked too similar to Min-ji . This person had already passed away and their appearance had been forever sealed up in their memories. Now that they had suddenly seen Jungkook , it actually felt like a sense of the deceased had been reunited with them once more. Seo-jun and his brothers had not seen Min-ji for so long, yet the Min-ji in their memories was similar at this particular age. She loved to dress herself from head to toe in dark clothes. She appeared passionate like a fire and used to run around, smiling and laughing as she followed along behind her elder brothers to go riding. JungKook's gaze lightly swept through the room and took in the whole scene of each person’s expression. As for the Park family, actually in his previous life and in his current one, Jungkook had never truly gotten in contact with them. However, when slhe was younger, Park Min-ji had often retold stories about the things that had happened in the General manor, and also talked about his rough and stubborn maternal grandfather and his maternal uncles, who each had their own different personalities. Park Min-ji would recount her own former and happier times while she was living together with her brothers and parents. Even if it was just a description about them, Jungkook could still remember imagining that that had been such a blissful tableau. He had been born in a court official’s family thus Jungkook was used to a life filled with fighting and scheming against each other. Yet based on what his Eomma had said in the past, in the General manor , she had always been blunt and whenever she had met with anything she was dissatisfied with, she would frankly and straightforwardly come to blows about it immediately. It was a pity that until the very end in his past life, Jungkook had never gotten the chance to personally see the General manor even once and had only received the news of the execution of the whole family and the confiscation of their property. Now in this life, at present, he was treading on the true grounds and soil of the General manor .
Shi-Zhang lightly pressed onto Bong yumo’s hand and at this, Bong yumo then cottoned on implicitly and wordlessly as she shot forward to kneel and cried out.
Bong yumo - Master, Master, do you still remember this slave? At that time, it was you, sir and lady Park who had instructed this old slave to follow the young miss to enter the Jeon family!
General Park
Bong yumo! ( startled for a moment )
Initially, Min-ji had been insistent on marrying into the Jeon family and had not even hesitated to sever all relations with the Park family. On that day, when she had packed all of her belongings to leave the manor , General Park and lady Park had called on Bong Suya, who was in the manor, and had her follow suit at JungKook's mother's side.
General Park
How-How did you become like this? ( frowned )
Bong yumo - It was because of the vicious-hearted people of the Jeon family. Though the Jeon family harmed Young miss , it was little master that has retrieved the life of this old slave back. Not only that, they also want to harm Young Miss's both sons. Master Park, save little master please!
After saying this, with no heed or concern for herself, she abruptly gave General Park a kowtow. Anyone seeing this scene could not help but feel an incomparable feeling of sadness. Jungkook had asked Shi-Zhang to support Bong yumo as he looked at General Park . The expression on General Park's face was one of astonished shock while in that split second, his complexion had become ashen.
General Park
JEON JUNG-HOON‼️ ( snarled with clenched teeth )
Jeon Jungkook
It is precisely my biological father.. ( said emotionlessly )
The Park family’s father and sons sat back with a thump silently. All three generations of the Park family were commanders in the military. Lady Park, had three sons and one daughter. Park Min-ji was the third child, and being the only daughter, the entire Park family doted on her without end. Although Park General was a military commander and his mannerisms were rough, he was extremely patient towards JungKook's eomma. After all a father daughter bond...
It can be difficult to find the just-right words to express your love for the special man who helped raise you. Anyone can be a man, but it takes someone special to be a father, and that's fathers are special cause everyone cannot be a father , because they are so special to us. During the early stages of the girl’s life, the involvement of her father helps in her emotional and mental development. Children who are attached to their fathers are better at finding solutions to general problems. They also show less anxiety and withdrawal behaviours when they are close to their fathers. And so was Min-ji...Her father and brothers loved her so much and cared so much for her. She loved them back truely and whole heartedly. She was ready to face any consequence for them. Same way she loved Jeon Jung-hoon...She proved her love by accompaning him after leaving her heavenly beautiful world and gifter family. She left everything, endured every pain and stood strong for her love because when woman loves she becomes ignorant of the surroundings eyes. But her mistake was choosing a wrong person...From a babbling baby to a delicate little girl to a slender and elegant young woman, Min-ji had always been raised like the pearl in General Park's hands. The Park family only had this one daughter and General Park loved her to bits. Lady Park and Old Park Madame even more so, while the brothers protected Min-ji every day, to the point that not one child in the capital’s circle of aristocracy dared to bully Min-ji. Growing up under such circumstances, as if she was blessed by the heavens, Park Min-ji naturally had a naive and unassuming temperament, so it was a pity she met someone like Jung-hoon. At that time, Jung-hoon was the upstart of the court. Young, handsome and coming from a literary family, he had a kind of elegant scholarly air. For Min-ji who was used to casual, offhand military men, it was truly too attractive. Min-ji was very daring and thought of ways to get close to him, but was seen through by Park General . Park General disliked Jung-hoon ; although he was a military officer, it was not like he was all brawn with no brains. After weathering through the bureaucracy for so long, he could see this upstart’s wild ambitions at a glance. It was fine to have wild ambitions, but after the Emperor was prevented from changing the Crown Prince by Taehyung , the court was constantly filled with covert maneuvers and open fights.
Many courtiers had secretly chosen a faction to back. At the time, the Park family belonged to the neutral faction, insisting on not being involved with those vying for succession in these muddy waters. But Jung-hoon , on the other hand, faintly revealed his intentions to support Eighth Prince Bogum. Even if one day they had to join the fight, the Park family definitely would not choose Eighth Prince Bogum . After all, Kwang Bogum was an unfathomable person, dealing with him was like dealing with a tiger. And so, General Park disliked Jeon Jung-hoon even more. At that time, JungKook's eomma insisted on marrying Jung-hoon and refused to listen to anyone.
The Jeon family also thought this way; the Park family was, after all, a meritorious and influential aristocratic family. Moreover, they also had a respected status in the capital. So, Old Jeon Madame did not continue to object, and took care of the marriage privately. But when the time to visit the maternal family came, the Park family did not admit Park. They truly had intended to sever relations with Jeon Min-ji . Min-ji was naturally heartbroken and as the days passed, with the Park family showing no signs of reconciliation, the Jeon family’s attitude towards Min-ji quickly cooled. Not long after, Jung-hoon brought in Xia Yan and became increasingly indifferent towards Min-ji . Enduring both a frosty relationship between husband and wife, and also the Jeon family acting apathetic towards her, JungKook's eomma , who was alone, thought through many matters. Self-aware of what she had done, she could not bear to see her parents and brothers. Furthermore, she did not want the Park family to get involved with the Jeon family’s muddy waters. So later when the Park family heard of Xia Yan’s affairs and came to visit the Jeon family, with an extremely harsh tone, she had chased the messenger away. You can love somebody without it being like that. You keep them a stranger, a stranger who's a friend. With such interactions, gradually, the Park family and Jeon family really became strangers to one another.
The atmosphere in the hall became strange. General Park looked at Jungkook with a complicated expression. Over the years, it was not that he had not sent people to the jeon manor. When Min-ji was alive, her attitude was always extremely harsh as if she was facing an enemy. Therefore, eventually, General Park had also hardened his heart and just pretended he did not have this daughter- even turning a blind eye to the entire Jeon family. Not one bit of news about the Jeon family could be heard in the General manor. But now, this grandson of his suddenly came forward and not only that, his daughter's old yumo, who had once cared for Min-ji , had borne such shocking news. The people of the Park family were those who would shield their dear ones the most even if they were at fault – upon hearing these words, they were inevitably furious with unappeased indignance.
Park Il-eum
Why have you been distributing Tteokguk ?
Jeon Jungkook
Eighth Prince wishes to use this chance to bring down the Park family.
Jeon Jungkook
First, by dispersing the wealth, and second, by removing the park family’s influence.
Park Il-eum
Where did you get the silver?
Jeon Jungkook
Recently the price of grain has risen many folds without slowing, however I bought it more than a month ago.
Park Il-eum
Don’t tell me you are a clairvoyant?
Jeon Jungkook
It was only a coincidence. ( smile )
Park Il-eum
What are you saying, you didn’t come to revive the relationship with your estranged maternal family?
Jeon Jungkook
Reviving the relationship with the family depends on the General and his wife.
Jeon Jungkook
My status isn’t important. Today I just came to negotiate a deal.
Jeon Jungkook
I saved a great part of the Park family’s fortune. This array of favors, i believe, are more than adequate. As for the deal, I hope the General can save my hyung.
Jeon Jungkook
Yes. My hyung. Your daughter's elder son. The eldest son of Jeons. Jeon Namjoon. He had left the house after eomma died and I was sent to the rut village.
Jeon Jungkook
But now, with my connections, I have found out that he is safe and alive. He is currently the Deputy General of the Imperial army, under Commander in chief Minho.
Park Seo-jun
What😳? A Deputy General..
Park Il-eum
What happened to your Hyung ?
Jeon Jungkook
Xia Yan and Jeon Jung-hoon want to take his life. ( says without any fear )
He didn’t even call Jung-hoon ‘father’ and had directly called him by his name. One could clearly see how much he hated him. And why wouldn't he...A monster who is thirty for his own children's blood.
Jeon Jungkook
The Xia family and the Jeon family are related by marriage. Even though there may be conflicting views, if Hyung is not around, then Dong-ah is the future head of the Jeons.
Park Seo-jun
The Xia family? Xia Yan's family..
Jeon Jungkook
However, there is another family which may be involved.
General Park
Who? Any other concubine's family?
Jeon Jungkook
No.. a family where I was being send as a concubine.
Park Seo-jun
WHAT‼️ ( biwildered )
Jeon Jungkook
The family of Grand Councillor Choi Ran-Dong .
General Park
How did Ran Dong come to be connected with the Xia and Jeon families?
Jeon Jungkook
Ran-Dong belongs to Eighth Prince’s faction, as does the Xia family. The Choi and Xia families are closely connected. If the Jeon manor is in difficulty, the Choi family will not stand by idly. Moreover, Jung-hoon wants to marry me off to the Choi family’s Young Master to serve as a stepping stone to be able to use the Choi family.
Park Seo-jun
How the fck he dare ‼️( withdrew his sword )
General Park slammed his hand on the table. He was so angry that his cheeks were quivering and his eyes were red. The entire capital knew what kind of person Taeyong was, that dissolute rake who consorted with prostitutes, whose backyard was not enough to house all his concubines, and who derived especial pleasure from sharing the same woman with his father, Ran-Dong . If Jungkook was to enter the Choi family, it would be the same as a sheep entering the tiger’s den. Jungkook was Jung-hoon's flesh and blood, how could he do something as shameful as this!
Jeon Jungkook
To ambush someone along a road would undoubtedly require many men and horses. Oehal-abeoji and Wae-sam-chon , could I trouble you to send for your troops, and assign some men to monitor the movements of the Xia and Choi families.
Jeon Jungkook
( asked with sincerity as if pleading )
Park Il-eum
Must we really take the step of sending out the troops? Since Namjoon is a Deputy General, he will be returning with his troops. With so many troops, would they dare to attempt an assasination in broad daylight?
Jeon Jungkook
I don’t know what method they will use...but I do know that if we don’t send sufficient manpower, my Hyung is headed for disaster.
Jeon Jungkook
They must take action before Hyung reaches the capital; once in the capital, under the nose of the Emperor, it will be much harder to make a move. Therefore, they will definitely think of a way, plan a way, to take my Hyung's life. Wae-sam-chon , please do not doubt me.
Park Il-eum
I do not doubt you.
Park Il-eum
Its just that its very risky. Namjoon needs to protected without the knowing of these fcking ghouls. So I am a bit concerned.
Jeon Jungkook
Then do you agree to my requirements?
General Park
Ahem... You.. you have come to the house for the first time.. These matters can be discussed later in detail eith full proof planing. Your aunts and grand mother should have prepared the meal by now let’s go out together. (he said sternly but witb slight gentleness )
General Park looked at JungKook's departing figure. The young boy was calm, and his speech and conduct were no different from that of an adult. Jungkook showed not even a hint of juvenile behaviour. He certainly appeared sweet-natured and gentle, but there was also a kind of cold indifference in his manner. There were evil tendencies which only those who had undergone the baptism of bloodshed on a battlefield would develop, and these tendencies had already seeped deep into JungKook's bones. Jungkook was about to walk behind them and enter the kitchen when a figure appeared before him. Il-nam blocked his way.
Park Il-eum
What are you really trying to do? ( asked with a suspicious smile )
Jeon Jungkook
I don't understand your words
Park Il-eum
The Choi family’s participation is definitely not due to the reason you have suggested. You must have another reason for stating with such certainty that Namjoon is going to be ambushed.
Park Il-eum
Father not investigating further doesn’t mean that I won’t.
Park Il-eum
Jungkook , even if you are Min-ji's son, I have to ask – just what are you honestly trying to do? ( expression gradually turn grave )
Jeon Jungkook
There is no need to be so tense, I will not harm the Park family. If that were not the case, I would not have distributed Tteokguk ,If you are still suspicious of me please consider all that I have done until now. Has there been even the slightest degree of detriment to the Park family? Moreover, if my Hyung can be saved, we are bound to capture some of the assassins.
