Chapter 152
The last festivity of the day was the night banquet. For this event, the King ordered the same boat as the one during the day to be used. The difference was that during the banquet, instead of going along the river, the ship would remain stationary.
Since Jun and the others were already aware of all these arrangements, it had been easy for them to set their plan into motion.
During the day they had secretly placed several spies on the King's vessel. Once Jeong was brought inside and the banquet officially began, these people only needed a signal in order to act. They would act as rebels, creating an opportunity for Jun and Yu Yeong to engage in a fight. It would all be for appearance's sake, though. All just so they could have a justifiable reason to draw their swords in the presence of the King and the Ming envoy.
