Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 311

Chapter 311: The Lazy Goes to the Imperial Palace (1)

“Did you say the imperial palace?”

“Yes.”

“What’s happening at the imperial palace?”

“Huh?”

Gwanggu Singae tilted his head:

“What do you mean?”

“What I mean…”

Saha, the Historian, responded as if it were obvious:

“Wei Yanho is going to the imperial palace, doesn’t that mean something will happen there?”

“……”

Gwanggu Singae looked at Saha with admiration:

“You’re already an expert on Wei Yanho.”

“…Isn’t that an insult?”

“More than an insult, it’s…”

Gwanggu Singae smiled:

“You’ve uncovered the hidden story and understand the true nature of Wei Yanho.”

“Hmm…”

Saha shook his head, feeling dissatisfied.

It was definitely not a pleasant thing.

“So, you departed for the imperial palace because of that? What about King Nokrim?”

“We had different opinions.”

Gwanggu Singae blew his nose:

“Some said we should go to the imperial palace immediately after receiving the imperial order, and it didn’t matter what happened to King Nokrim. Others said it was immoral to leave without helping King Nokrim, who is dying.”

“Both opinions are correct.”

“The interesting thing is that no one said they wanted to go home.”

Saha tilted his head:

Why is that interesting?

“Think about how dangerous it is for Wei Yanho to meet the emperor.”

“……A great disaster.”

“Yes. Just being near him could be fatal. If you had a normal thought, you would cut ties with Wei Yanho and leave.”

“True.”

“But nobody thought like that. Everyone wanted to follow Wei Yanho.”

“Why?”

“That’s what’s interesting.”

Gwanggu Singae laughed:

“We knew how dangerous it was to go to the imperial palace with Wei Yanho, but we didn’t think about separating from him to avoid the danger. We only thought about controlling him and preventing him from doing something reckless.”

Gwanggu Singae smiled nostalgically:

“Looking back, we were obsessed with Wei Yanho. Although we said he was driving us crazy, we couldn’t imagine leaving him. He’s surprisingly charming.”

“You say that despite being treated like that?”

“That’s why I say it’s interesting.”

Gwanggu Singae lay down:

“It was difficult and annoying, but it was the most fun time of my life. Will it happen again?”

“I’m not interested in your personal life, continue.”

“…Your tone sounds like his.”

When Saha frowned, as if annoyed by those words, Gwanggu Singae laughed:

“I’ll tell you. We had to decide how to depart. But did our opinion matter? He would decide. And he decided to heal King Nokrim first, for something more important.”

“Something more important?”

“It’s obvious.”

Gwanggu Singae made a circle with his fingers.

“Money.”

“……”

***

“More! Give me more!”

“Lord! If you take everything, I’ll starve!”

“I don’t care if you starve! If you don’t want to see that old man die, empty the storage and give me all the money you have hidden, right now!”

“Lord! I don’t have any more!”

“What? You don’t have any more?”

The young man started kicking things.

“Lord! I really don’t have any more!”

“What will you do if I find it myself? What will you do if I find more? Do you take me for a fool? Search? How? Will I search?”

“Actually, I have a little left…”

“Do you take me for a fool?!”

“Ah! Lord! I’m sorry! Ah!”

Wei Jeonghan trembled as he watched the young man extorting an old man.

The bearer of the Sword of the Righteous Hero, a righteous knight, couldn’t intervene because his son was the one extorting.

‘This is complicated.’

Wei Jeonghan grabbed his head in anguish.

Wei Yanho said he had to do something before going to the imperial palace, and he started extorting Daehogun. It was his fault. Daehogun had brought Wei Yanho here with money.

The problem was the way Wei Yanho obtained the money…

‘I’ve seen this before.’

The fact that he felt sorry for the bandits meant that he had become more compassionate. Or that Wei Yanho was crueler than the bandits.

“Lord! If you take everything…”

“Did you say there’s a lot of money in the main house?”

“……”

“I’m warning you. Send some of the money to my house.”

“…L… lord?”

“You don’t want to?”

“No…”

Daehogun swallowed.

‘This demon.’

They had chosen Wei Yanho because he was powerful for his age. They thought he was easy to control because he was young and didn’t belong to any clan.

But they didn’t expect him to be like this.

They should have investigated him better when they heard the rumors!

‘Who would have thought that Wei Jeonghan’s son would be like this?’

It wasn’t Daehogun’s fault.

They knew Wei Jeonghan’s character very well. They thought his son would be righteous, but also sentimental.

He was just a strong Lazy!

“You’re sure you’ll send it?”

“…Yes.”

“Hahahaha, good.”

Daehogun clung to the legs of Wei Yanho, who turned around satisfied.

“W… wait, lord! You must heal King Nokrim!”

“I will.”

“Now! You must do it now!”

“I already said it!”

Wei Yanho kicked Daehogun and walked towards Jin Soah.

“Did you hear that?”

“Huh?”

“We must treat him.”

“I told you I can’t.”

“Don’t worry.”

Wei Yanho smiled confidently and pointed at himself.

“Teach me. Show me what a genius is.”

Jin Soah closed her eyes as she saw Wei Yanho smile confidently.

‘Should I treat him myself?’

It seemed to be better.

“This idiot…”

“What?”

“Why don’t you understand?! Why?!”

“It’s not that I don’t understand! You’re talking nonsense! How is that done?”

“Because people can’t do it, we ask an expert!”

“Isn’t an expert a person? Isn’t she a person?”

An intense debate about medicine began. Wei Yanho was so annoyed that he was shouting.

“You must absorb the stagnant energy in the acupoints, but you must not absorb the poison, so you must filter it and expel it!”

Wei Yanho nodded and took an inkstone.

“Take it.”

“Huh?”

“Drink it.”

“…How can I drink it? It’s ink.”

“If it’s like you say, you can drink it and spit out the ink.”

“How can I do that?”

“I’m a person! I can do it!”

“No! I won’t! I’d rather…”

*Crash!*

Jin Soah’s eyes trembled.

Jin Yeran entered with a tea tray and left it on the floor.

“…S… sister?”

“Young Master Wei.”

“Yes?”

“Can you step outside for a moment?”

“It’s annoying…”

“Just a moment.”

“Yes.”

Jin Soah looked at Wei Yanho urgently, but Wei Yanho ignored her and went out.

“Sit down.”

“…Yes.”

Jin Yeran, who had become serious, looked at Jin Soah. Jin Soah shrank.

“It’s true that I’ve recognized your path. You have your own path, and your path as a doctor may be different from mine. But!”

Jin Soah’s body trembled as Jin Yeran’s voice rose.

“That’s as a doctor! What you’re doing is wrong! Someone without manners cannot be a good doctor! Our father wanted you to become a true doctor. Tell me, can someone without manners be a true doctor?”

“…No.”

“And that person!”

Wei Yanho stuck out his tongue from outside.

Then she gave him two punches.

Jin Soah began to tremble.

“He’s thinking about other things while I’m talking! I can’t allow this! Bring a whip!”

“S… sister, I’m the leader of the Sacred Hand Hall.”

“So what?”

“The… the leader cannot be whipped.”

“I’m not a member of the Sacred Hand Hall.”

“…Huh?”

“I’m your family and your protector. Bring a whip. If I don’t teach you manners, I won’t be able to see our father when I die.”

“S… sorry.”

“Hahahaha.”

Wei Yanho laughed as he saw Jin Soah begging.

“She found her match.”

“Shut up!”

“Ow! Ow!”

Wei Jeonghan grabbed Wei Yanho’s ears and took him inside.

“Ow! My ears are going to fall off! Ow!”

“If they were going to fall off, they would have already fallen off, you brat.”

Wei Jeonghan made Wei Yanho kneel next to Jin Soah.

“Explain to me what’s going on. It won’t be resolved if we leave it like this.”

The expressions of Jin Yeran and Wei Jeonghan changed as they listened to Jin Soah and Wei Yanho’s explanation.

“You must absorb the stagnant energy, but since there is poison, you must neutralize it or expel it.”

“Yes. But if you only expel it, it could become poisoned again. So, we must…”

“That’s difficult.”

Jin Yeran realized how difficult it was. Even absorbing the stagnant energy required an expert, and now there were more things to do.

But Wei Jeonghan didn’t seem to think so.

“Don’t worry about it.”

“Huh?”

Wei Jeonghan smiled and looked at Wei Yanho.
