Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 354
Chapter 354: The Loafer Receives a Position (4)
“I want to go home.”
“Huh?”
Wei Jeonghan frowned when he saw Wei Yanho walk in and say that.
“Go home?”
“Yes.”
“You just resolved the imperial palace matters, and you’re going home? Did you talk to Yi Wangya, the Second Prince?”
“No.”
“Then why do you want to go home?!”
When Wei Jeonghan got angry, Wei Yanho looked at him in disbelief:
“I want to go to my house, why do I need his permission?”
“It’s not like that!”
“I’ve received the imperial order, and it’s over.”
“…Yes.”
“Then, I’m leaving.”
Wei Yanho smiled.
“Hmm.”
Wei Jeonghan couldn’t find an excuse.
He was right.
“Brat, there’s a minimum of decorum.”
“I don’t know. Anyway, I’m going home.”
When Wei Yanho entered his room, Wei Jeonghan jumped up:
“This brat!”
But Wei Sanho stopped Wei Jeonghan:
“Let go of me! It seems this brat doesn’t understand the importance of his position, I must show my authority as a father…”
“I don’t think that’s the case.”
“Huh?”
Wei Sanho shook his head:
“Even if he becomes the best in the world, he’s still a guy who gets spanked by his father. He’s not that kind of person.”
“Hmm…”
Wei Jeonghan knew that was true. Wei Yanho was an expert that even Wei Jeonghan couldn’t touch, but he always kneeled and raised his hands when Wei Jeonghan got angry.
“He’s smart and doesn’t act impulsively. If he was tired, he would have said he wanted to rest in the imperial palace. There must be something we don’t know.”
Wei Jeonghan nodded.
No one knew Wei Yanho better than Wei Sanho. Wei Sanho understood his brother like a ghost.
“But…”
“You’re right, there’s no need to scold him.”
Yi Wangya entered and said. Everyone bowed, but Yi Wangya waved his hand:
“It’s okay. Don’t bow. It’s not the time for that, and I’m not in a position to receive it.”
“Yes.”
Wei Jeonghan bowed and replied:
“And Yanho?”
“He went in to pack.”
“Tsk.”
Yi Wangya clicked his tongue and looked towards where Wei Sanho had pointed.
Then he sighed:
“Let him do what he wants.”
“Wangya.”
“I don’t know what to say. It’s natural to be angry.”
Yi Wangya looked at the room where Wei Yanho had entered with sadness. It was the best option for them, but not for Wei Yanho.
How could he explain the duty of a member of the royalty to protect the line of succession?
‘It’s just an excuse.’
They had learned countless times that a king must live for the people. But the reason they had to make that decision was out of fear.
Yi Wangya felt that it was insufficient.
Many people said that he should have been emperor, but he didn’t try because he knew he was insufficient.
‘This guy is different.’
Yi Wangya couldn’t help but admire Wei Yanho, who looked at the emperor and said what he wanted. How many people would dare to be so rude in front of the emperor?
Yi Wangya sighed and spoke:
“He said he was packing?”
“Yes.”
“Then you guys are going home too?”
“Probably… shouldn’t we?”
“Then, I have bad news.”
“Huh? What…”
Yi Wangya took out a red edict from his clothes and gave it to Wei Jeonghan:
“It’s from the Righteous Martial Alliance.”
Wei Jeonghan’s eyes widened.
Wei Yanho, who had packed, came out of the room with his luggage.
“Huh?”
Wei Yanho frowned when he felt the heavy atmosphere. Had there been a good moment since he arrived?
Everyone had complained when Wei Yanho said he would meet the emperor, then he was imprisoned.
There was never a good moment.
“Aren’t you going home?”
“…Now is not the time for that.”
“Huh?”
Wei Jeonghan showed the red edict to Wei Yanho:
“A red edict has arrived.”
“Huh?”
Wei Yanho asked without understanding:
“What is that?”
“It’s an urgent message from the Righteous Martial Alliance.”
“Oh?”
Wei Yanho looked at the edict with curiosity and tilted his head:
“Why?”
“Something urgent has happened. You must return immediately.”
“To the Righteous Martial Alliance?”
“Yes.”
Wei Yanho nodded seriously:
“I don’t understand, but seeing father’s attitude, it must be something important.”
“It’s good that you understand even if you don’t understand.”
“So I must return to the Righteous Martial Alliance immediately?”
“It seems so.”
“Hmm…”
Wei Yanho nodded gravely:
“Then I must leave.”
“Huh?”
Wei Jeonghan’s eyes widened. This guy understood so easily. Normally, even if he understood, he would do everything possible not to go.
“It seems you have matured a lot after experiencing various events and obtaining a position.”
“Suffering makes a man grow.”
“Excellent.”
Wei Jeonghan nodded proudly.
The son of him, for whom he was worried, was growing. There couldn’t be anything happier for a father.
“Okay. You’ve already packed, let’s go.”
“Yes. It’s a long trip, be careful. Don’t worry about me. I’m not a child anymore, I can go home alone.”
“Huh?”
Did the conversation go astray?
“You’ll go home alone? What do you mean?”
“What do you mean?”
“……”
This?
Wei Jeonghan asked with a stunned expression:
“You’re not coming with me?”
“Why?”
“They said it’s urgent.”
“You’re saying something funny.”
Wei Yanho smiled and said politely:
“I have nothing to do with the Righteous Martial Alliance, so it’s strange that I should go because an edict arrived.”
“……”
“Of course, it’s a shame that I can’t return home with father, but men have their own affairs. As a son, I can’t stop my father’s work. Mom will stay home with me, don’t worry…”
“Brat! You must go with me!”
“Why should I go?”
Wei Sanho sighed.
He thought everything was going well, but it ended as always.
“Calm down…”
He tried to mediate, but it didn’t seem like they could be mediated.
“Are they calling for me?! What will they do with an old man like me! They’re calling for you! You!”
“Why are they calling for me? Did they pay me? Why should I go?”
“It’s the Righteous Martial Alliance! The righteous warriors must respect the orders!”
“That’s called being a voluntary fool. I haven’t received anything from them, why should I obey them? Because you always obey them, they think they can control me.”
“Wow…”
Wei Yanho said something that would have made the Supreme Sovereign and the Master of Divine Abilities of the Righteous Martial Alliance vomit blood.
“So you won’t go?”
“No.”
“You really won’t go?”
Wei Yanho looked fiercely:
“It seems that many people are trying to use me easily, I can’t allow it.”
“Huh?”
“I must show them that I am valuable. If they want to use me, they must give me adequate compensation. Please tell them that.”
“This brat!”
Wei Jeonghan jumped up:
“It seems that I didn’t teach you enough righteousness. The fact that the Righteous Martial Alliance needs you means that there is a great crisis, how can you say that? I must teach you…”
“Mommmmmmmmmmm!”
*Bang!*
The door flew off its hinges.
Han Sangah entered with burning eyes:
“…”
Wei Jeonghan was heard swallowing.
“Oh! My son! My censor!”
“Mom!”
Wei Yanho ran towards Han Sangah, who opened her arms.
“Why is my censor looking for me?”
“Mom! Dad wants to take me to the Righteous Martial Alliance.”
“What?”
Han Sangah looked at Wei Jeonghan with fury. Wei Jeonghan avoided her gaze, sweating.
“Why?”
“No, Sangah, it’s that…”
When Wei Jeonghan explained the situation, Han Sangah scoffed:
“Who are they to order my dear son?”
“Sangah, the Righteous Martial Alliance…”
“Did they give us rice?! Food?! When did they care about us while you were busy with that war? Those loafers don’t care about us when we don’t need them, and they act like they’re friends when they need us!”
“……”
“Those useless warriors of the martial world are ordering our censor! If they have something to say, let them come themselves!”
“But Sangah…”
“And you!”
“Yes!”
Han Sangah’s eyes shone.
“Is your family more important or the Righteous Martial Alliance?”
Wei Jeonghan couldn’t answer immediately. His mind was in chaos, but his lips were looking for a way out.
“Of course my family is more important, Sangah. I regret having gone to that war and leaving you behind. They say a man must take care of his family, so how could I not worry about her.”
“And you want to take your son to the Righteous Martial Alliance?”
“……”
“I won’t allow it before I die! Kill me and take him! Or go alone! Yanho!”
“Yes, Mom!”
“Let’s go eat!”
“Yes!”
Wei Jeonghan swallowed his tears as he watched Wei Yanho leave with Han Sangah.
Yi Wangya put his arm over Wei Jeonghan’s shoulder:
“…Be strong.”
“Kuh! Wangya!”
“That’s why I live alone.”
Wei Jeonghan cried as he realized who was truly wise.
“And it’s not bad.”
“Huh?”
“All relationships begin with the exchange of benefits. You can be satisfied by helping the Righteous Martial Alliance and fulfilling your justice, but others may not be. Don’t force them. Everything is a personal choice.”
“But…”
“And…”
Yi Wangya said with fierce eyes:
“Remember that even if he is your son, if you try to threaten the Righteous censor, I will imprison him by the authority of the country. It’s not a joke!”
Wei Jeonghan closed his mouth.
He had no allies in the world.
