Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 320

**Chapter 320: The Loafer Goes to the Capital (5)**

“…But…”

The Supreme Sovereign said to the Master of Divine Abilities.

“Tell me, leader.”

“Thinking about it, I think something went wrong.”

“What do you mean?”

The Master of Divine Abilities looked at the Supreme Sovereign in disbelief. Although he was intelligent and could foresee things, it wasn’t easy to understand the hidden meaning of those ambiguous words.

“Wei Jeonghan’s group is heading to Beijing.”

“Yes.”

“According to you, Wei Yanho is going to Beijing to see the emperor.”

“Hahaha, yes.”

The Master of Divine Abilities smiled with satisfaction.

Although it was a pity not to have caught him in Luoyang, Beijing was a nearby place to stop Wei Yanho. If he went to Gwangdong, it would be difficult to use the influence of the Righteous Martial Alliance.

“It was a brilliant move.”

The Master of Divine Abilities congratulated himself.

The Supreme Sovereign had to admit the ability of the Master of Divine Abilities. No one could control Wei Yanho in the world. Wei Yanho wasn’t a member of the Righteous Martial Alliance, so he didn’t have to obey the Supreme Sovereign, and he was free because he didn’t have a position.

No one could stop him if he didn’t harm others.

Even Wei Jeonghan, who was the only one who could control him, was having problems, so who could control him?

‘There’s only one.’

Only the emperor, who was above everyone.

It wasn’t difficult to think of that. Many might have thought of using the emperor to stop Wei Yanho.

But no one other than the Master of Divine Abilities could do it. It wasn’t just a good idea, but he was also able to use the imperial palace to stop Wei Yanho in this environment where the government and the martial world didn’t mix.

It was brilliant… but…

“Yes, it was brilliant, but…”

The Supreme Sovereign scratched his head:

“Think about it, is it really a good idea?”

“What do you mean?”

“Wei Jeonghan and his group are heading to the imperial palace.”

“Yes.”

“Then, Wei Yanho will meet the emperor.”

*Crash!*

The Master of Divine Abilities’ teacup broke.

The Master of Divine Abilities, who finally understood what the Supreme Sovereign was saying, turned pale.

“Huh… huh?”

The Supreme Sovereign had never seen the Master of Divine Abilities so surprised.

He, who spoke fluently, was stuttering.

“Wei Yanho… in front of the emperor…”

“No!”

The Master of Divine Abilities raised his hand and hit his head:

“Why didn’t I think of that?! The elders must be dying!”

‘I don’t think it’s because of age…’

The Master of Divine Abilities seemed to lose control when it came to Wei Yanho. It was understandable since Wei Yanho was a unique guy who had never appeared in the martial world.

“What do we do?”

‘Why are you asking me?’

If I could solve it, why would I use my strategists? I would do it myself.

“No… if we fail, the relationship between the government and the martial world might worsen.”

The emperor was terrifying because he ruled the world. If you look down from a high mountain, you see villages, not houses.

It was inevitable. The emperor would probably consider the mistake of a warrior as the mistake of the entire martial world. The relationship between the government and the martial world, which had recently relaxed, might worsen.

“With what confidence…”

“Hiik!”

The Master of Divine Abilities, who realized what he had done, grabbed his head.

That was the first time he had felt so much anxiety since he had put the Supreme Sovereign in the middle of an enemy attack during the war against the Demon Cult.

“We must stop him!”

“How?”

“Somehow…”

“Will he have arrived in Beijing already?”

“……”

“Even if we send a message, it’s already impossible to stop him before he enters the imperial palace. And the imperial order has already been given, how can we stop it? Should we disobey the emperor?”

“Somehow…”

“Give up.”

The Master of Divine Abilities lowered his head.

“Right?”

“It’s too late.”

“Khuh, I made a mistake.”

The Master of Divine Abilities regretted it.

He was too focused on stopping Wei Yanho and didn’t think about the consequences. That was something he wouldn’t have done before.

‘Why do things always go wrong when it comes to him?’

It was a mystery, and there was no answer.

“Don’t worry too much.”

“Why?”

“Wei Yanho… is quite charming.”

“……”

Charming?

That guy?

“Hahaha, it’s easier to forgive someone mischievous than someone perfect. The emperor won’t want a typical warrior, so someone like him might be better.”

“Is he more likely to die?”

“Hahaha, life is like that. If something goes wrong, you die.”

The Master of Divine Abilities narrowed his eyes:

‘How did I trust him during the war?’

The two, who had maintained a strong relationship of trust for decades, began to doubt each other because of Wei Yanho.

“I hope everything goes well…”

“It won’t go well.”

“Really?”

“But the result will be good.”

“Huh?”

“Don’t you know? Wherever Wei Yanho has gone, there have been problems, but the results have been good.”

“…Right.”

“Believe me. I think the best solution for the problems of the Central Plains is to send him where there are problems.”

“Leader.”

“Hmm?”

“Isn’t it… do problems only occur where he is?”

“Yes, but…”

“The imperial palace! Do you know what it means for a problem to occur in the imperial palace?”

“You sent him! Why are you yelling at me?”

“Because you’re saying something obvious.”

Shibi sighed as he watched them fight.

‘What happened to them?’

A few months ago, they were amazing people…

Shibi shook his head.

The strategists’ office was noisy.

***

“That is Beijing, also known as Pekin.”

“Oh.”

Wei Yanho opened his eyes like a child.

He had visited famous cities in the Central Plains. He had been to Kaifeng, Wuhan, and Luoyang. But this was his first time in Beijing.

“It’s big.”

Just by seeing the large and tall walls, he realized that it wasn’t a common place.

Also, he felt energy in the houses and buildings outside the walls.

“It’s a new place. Since its history isn’t long, it’s a vibrant place.”

“I thought it would be an ancient place…”

“That’s what people usually think.”

Wei Jeonghan smiled.

He felt like he was traveling with his family.

‘Thinking about it, we’ve been very busy.’

After Wei Yanho disappeared, the Wei family had no rest. After searching for him for five years, they couldn’t rest.

‘This situation feels relaxed.’

If they were normal people, they would be nervous about going to the imperial palace, but they weren’t because they had been through many things.

It was like going for a walk.

Perhaps they were relaxed because they had left the Central Plains, where the tension was high due to the Demon Cult, and had arrived in Beijing, where their influence was less.

“Will we go to the imperial palace today?”

“No.”

Moon Eunji replied:

“Going to the imperial palace isn’t easy.”

“Can’t we just go in?”

“We need to learn the protocol, which will take three days.”

“……Do we have to go?”

“It’s an imperial order.”

Wei Yanho grabbed his head. Learning things was the worst for him. Three days…

“Fortunately, Yi Wangya, the Second Prince, helped us, so it only takes three days. If we had to prepare formally, it would take fifteen days.”

“……Do everyone live like this?”

“That’s normal.”

“I live abnormally.”

Wei Yanho lay down in the carriage:

“Humans can’t do what they want.”

“Yes.”

“It would be good if everyone could live as they wanted. But there are rules and positions. Everyone wants a free life, but no one can achieve it.”

“That’s true… eh? Who am I talking to?”

Wei Yanho got up and looked:

“Eh? Father?”

“Brat.”

Yi Wangya clicked his tongue as he looked at Wei Yanho:

“I heard you’ve been through many things, but you haven’t changed.”

“If you change suddenly, you die.”

“Hahaha, that’s also true.”

A soft smile appeared on Yi Wangya’s face.

‘It’s strange.’

He hated and was annoyed with him, but now he felt a little happy to see him.

“Who are you?”

Wei Jeonghan asked, surprised. An old man had appeared in the carriage and sat next to Wei Yanho.

“Are you the censor?”

“Ah, the censor… Coff! What?”

Wei Jeonghan knelt in horror. The others also knelt.

But no one succeeded. A power lifted them up.

‘An expert! Very powerful!’

Yi Wangya spoke when Wei Jeonghan was surprised:

“There are many people watching us, so let’s go to my house. I have something important to say.”

Everyone looked at Yi Wangya with respect.

Such a powerful censor… incredible…

“Why must you show your power?”

“……”

“Typical.”

“Khak! Brat!”

“You said there are many people watching us!”

“Who’s going to see you? Damn it!”

The respect of the others increased and then decreased.
