Chapter 596: Parliament Establishment 3

Yemaek—which was located to the east of the Song Empire.

War movement began to circulate in the place where the Song Empire hadn’t been well acquainted for a long time.

It was because an order had been issued to mobilize the entire army troops after the envoy of the Song Empire went and came back.

“I am very sorry, Your Majesty. This is happening because of me…”

Jo Won-rak bowed his head and apologized to Biryu, the ruler of Yemaek.

It was because he felt that there was no need to spill blood for the 3rd person.

However, Biryu’s thoughts were different.

“It isn’t because of you. Even if it wasn’t for you, Jo Won-gyun had been aiming for Yemaek. The war just happened to come a little closer.”

“I am grateful that you think so.”

Jo Won-rak had been framed for a sin, and escaped to the neighboring nation, Yemaek.

He was engaged to the daughter of Biryu, So-hye, and he thought that the evil man Jo Won-gyun wouldn’t dare to step foot in there.

However, his thoughts were completely wrong.

It was because Jo Won-gyun, who took control of the Song Empire’s imperial family, sent Hwang Bo-kwang—an outsider of the royal family, and threatened to start a war if Yemaek didn’t let go of Jo Won-rak.

“And what are we? If Hye and you get married one day, you will become our family soon. We don’t have the custom of abandoning one’s family in Yemaek.”

Biryu was a typical character, he had the temperament of a kid and didn’t hesitate to spill blood if necessary.

He thought that the war might be able to cut the fate of the Song Empire and Yemaek, so he issued the troops’ mobilization order.

In the mobilization order, many of the Moorim clans and warriors in Yemaek had been included.

He was preparing for a war that would decide the fate of the nation.

Jo Won-rak, who left the throne room, headed to his room.

In his room, which was in the Royal palace was Zegal Hui of the Eorim troops, who too had been exiled.

“How did it go, prince? What did King Biryu say?”

“Fortunately, the king regards the war as an established fact.”

Thanks to that, his feelings of guilt had decreased, but the problem was whether they could really win the war against the Song Empire.

If the war was lost, his intention of seeking the asylum in the neighboring nation would disappear.

He would be taken back to the Song Empire and would have to beg the evil hands of Jo Won-gyun.

“What did the Zegal clan say?”

At Jo Won-rak’s question, Zegal Hui answered about the call he had made.

“Elder Zegal Shin, who is infiltrating the enemy lair, caught them making the Kangshi in the Hwang Bo clan. It was said that the Moorim clan was being gathered in secret.”

The masked men and Arsene’s previous attack on the Zegal Clan had left a huge blow on them.
