Chapter 148
Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors
Swosh
Having sliced through the sea breeze, I arrived in Dongyoung and raced across the land after Miho. Everything about the scenery and architecture of Dongyoung, which I was seeing for the first time, struck me as fascinating. The buildings were unlike anything I had seen in the Central Plains or Goryeo. The tiles and overall design were completely different.
Miho spoke up,
“The current supreme power in Dongyoung is a person named Tokugawa Ieyasu. He is the lord who finally pacified the wars. It’s been about twenty years since he came to power.”
“The names of the people in Dongyoung are quite bizarre.”
“Hehe, this is an island nation with a strong independent culture.”
As I sat by the water, I couldn’t help but gaze at Miho, who was splashing water around while playing barefoot. I asked her,
“You charmed the Emperor, right? So, is the Emperor the same guy as Tokugawa Ieyasu?”
