Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 321

**Chapter 321: The Loafer Has an Audience (1)**

“Did you say Beijing?”

“Yes.”

Saha, the Historian, frowned slightly:

“That’s strange.”

“Why?”

“I’ve heard many stories about the Radiant Martial Sovereign of the world and you, but most are stories I’ve already heard. Although… the direction and interpretation are a bit different.”

Gwanggu Singae smiled:

“It’s not just a bit different; it’s very different.”

“Yes… right.”

Saha admitted flatly.

The actions of Wei Yanho known to the world and those Gwanggu Singae told were very different. It was as if two writers with different styles had written the same story. The general movement was similar, but the details were very different.

“Anyway!”

Saha coughed and changed the subject:

“In both official records and folk tales, I’ve heard about those things, but I’ve never heard of the Radiant Martial Sovereign going to Beijing.”

“That’s impossible.”

“……Why?”

“First… well, first, not many people knew.”

“But it’s Beijing…”

“Although it’s different now, back then, Beijing was a difficult place for warriors. Although the government didn’t care much about the martial world, they didn’t allow warriors to roam freely in Beijing.”

“True.”

“Wei Yanho was famous elsewhere, but he was just an ordinary young man to ordinary people. Therefore, it was unlikely that it would be known that he was in Beijing. Elsewhere, he was involved with warriors, but here he was involved with officials. So there were no rumors.”

“That’s strange.”

Saha said in disbelief:

“Even if there were no warriors there, it’s unusual for a warrior to have an audience with the emperor. Aside from the case of Jangsam Bong Jin, there are no cases of warriors having an audience with the emperor.”

“Yes.”

“Even if there were no warriors there, I don’t understand why the news didn’t spread.”

“It’s not strange.”

“Huh?”

Gwanggu Singae smiled:

“If things had happened normally, you’d be right. But as you know, Wei Yanho never does anything normal.”

“…Right.”

“If he had had a normal audience, the news would have spread, but that didn’t happen. So the officials couldn’t spread the news… and we had to keep quiet.”

“Huh?”

“…Because it wasn’t something we should spread.”

Gwanggu Singae’s expression changed.

He seemed to be disgusted just remembering it. Gwanggu Singae had never had that expression when talking about Wei Yanho.

‘What happened?’

Wei Yanho had already caused enough problems. But Saha began to worry when he realized there was something more in Gwanggu Singae’s expression.

What else could there be?

“The imperial palace also…”

“…I told you.”

“Huh?”

“He’s like a natural disaster. If he’s not in a specific place, he’s not a natural disaster.”

Saha nodded involuntarily at that convincing explanation.

“I understand that Wei Yanho causes problems, but I still don’t understand one thing.”

“What?”

Gwanggu Singae frowned:

“Why did Yi Wangya, the Second Prince, call Wei Yanho to the imperial palace?”

“……”

“It’s strange.”

***

Although I am from the Beggar Sect and handle all the information in the world, I have never been able to obtain information about the imperial palace. It cannot be obtained through rumors.

And even if we get information, we discard it immediately.

Why?

Tsk tsk tsk.

Why does the Beggar Sect classify and organize information? To serve the world?

Even beggars need to eat.

Sure, beggars beg, but begging isn’t enough. People think that the beggars of the Beggar Sect make a lot of money, but that’s only partially true.

Sure, we make money. We sell information, participate in things, and the children beg. In fact, there aren’t many who earn more money than the Beggar Sect.

So what is wrong?

We can’t save it.

Seriously, we can’t save the money.

Think about it.

No matter how much money you have, there are many beggars. If there is a drought, people become stingy, and the beggars starve. We can’t let the beggars starve.

If we feed the beggars, the money runs out quickly.

That’s why we must save money. But if we sell information about the imperial palace…

Yes.

All the beggars would die.

That’s why we ignore information about the imperial palace.

That’s why I didn’t know.

Yes, I didn’t know.

That it was so chaotic.

…I didn’t know at that time.

***

“Wow, this house is huge. I’d like to live here.”

“…A house only needs to be big enough to sleep in. It doesn’t need to be this big.”

“Why do you say that?”

Yi Wangya’s expression changed:

‘I forgot.’

Memories become blurred and idealized over time. The powerful presence of Wei Yanho had become blurred.

‘I’m crazy.’

Why did I call him?

No matter the reason or the goal, what’s the point if he gets sick before achieving his goal?

“I don’t want this house, but I have to maintain my status as a member of the imperial family. If I say I want to live in a cabin, the officials will object. Do you understand?”

“Being a member of the imperial family is great. You can live in a house like this without doing anything.”

“Aaaaaaaaaah!”

Yi Wangya was about to fight with Wei Yanho, but the others stopped him.

“Your Majesty, calm down!”

“He’s always been like this!”

“Manners! Manners!”

“Huuup, huup!”

Yi Wangya took a deep breath.

He already knew Wei Yanho was like this.

The goal was important, not fighting with Wei Yanho.

“Ugh!”

When they arrived at the house, the servants came out to greet them.

“Welcome, Your Majesty!”

“Open the door!”

“Yes!”

Yi Wangya got out of the carriage after entering:

“Treat the guests well. Make sure they rest well.”

“Yes! Of course!”

He looked imposing. Yi Wangya thought so too. But that guy kept laughing, which bothered him.

“You!”

“Huh?”

“Come with me.”

“……Me?”

“Who else?”

“I want to rest. Can I rest and then go with you?”

“…Do you want to get beaten?”

“You’ve become more violent.”

“It’s all your fault!”

The servants widened their eyes.

Yi Wangya was serious. It was normal. As the emperor’s older brother and the eldest member of the imperial family, it was natural for him to be serious.

Even though Nokgi controlled the East Palace, a eunuch couldn’t match the authority of Yi Wangya, who was a member of the imperial family from birth.

But…

“I thought you would have matured in the martial world, but you’ve become more rebellious.”

“You’ve gotten old!”

“I’m getting old because of you!”

“Getting old is getting old. But those who can’t avoid aging look for a reason. Although it’s painful to be the target, if it makes you feel better, I’ll do it.”

“Khh…”

Wei Jeonghan gritted his teeth as he watched Yi Wangya about to have a stroke.

‘I could be accused of insulting the imperial palace.’

Wei Jeonghan ran forward to prevent his family from being ruined. He hit Wei Yanho in the back of the head.

“Ow! Why are you hitting me?”

“Insolent brat! Did I teach you that?”

“I don’t think I learned anything from you…”

“.”

Wei Jeonghan had left home when he was young, and Wei Yanho had also left home when he was older. Wei Jeonghan was speechless.

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty.”

You must talk to someone who understands you.

Wei Jeonghan, unable to control Wei Yanho, began to console Yi Wangya:

“It’s my fault for not raising him well. If there is a fault, it is mine, so punish my lack.”

Yi Wangya nodded in admiration:

“As expected, parents are responsible for the actions of their children.”

“Yes.”

“Then, you must be punished.”

“Yes… huh?”

Wei Jeonghan raised his head in surprise. Normally, he would say, “No, what did you do wrong?”

“What tricks! Damn it!”

Yi Wangya shouted:

“I will punish you!”

“You don’t want me to come, but you’re angry. Why did you call me?”

“I regret it, damn it.”

“You’re fickle. Your subordinates must be tired.”

“Ah… my neck… my neck… Call a doctor! Doctor!”

Jangil ate dried meat while watching the chaos.

“Typical.”

A typical day for Wei Yanho.

“Prepare to go to the palace.”

“You must tell me what to prepare.”

“I was going to say it!”

“It would be good if you told me earlier.”

*Crunching*.

Yi Wangya squeezed the inkstone. He wasn’t worried that the inkstone would hurt Wei Yanho.

‘Anyway, he’ll dodge it.’

After releasing that monster into the martial world, he returned as an even bigger monster. He couldn’t imagine his level.

“Huu…”

Yi Wangya put down the inkstone and spoke:

“The reason I called you…”
