Chapter 222 222
Yuna sat in the sedan chair where Saito's family was married, her eyes were infinitely empty.
The cage is narrow, and people sitting in it must shrink their bodies, either kneeling or cross-legged, which is somewhat uncomfortable.In particular, this sedan chair had previously transported a time retrograde army. At this moment, the dead air from the retrograde army still remained in the corner of the sedan chair. It smelled a little weird, which made her feel uncomfortable.
After His Excellency Hidekiri proposed the bad idea of "pretending to be Saito Kicho and his retainers", the fat samurai leader named Ogura also agreed, so he made a mistake and asked her to put on Saito Kicho's clothes and sit in the In this cage.
At this moment, the sedan chair had arrived at the mansion of the city lord of Furuno City.
The center of the Owari Kingdom is in Cheongju, which is occupied by the Oda Royal Family.Compared with Qingzhou, Nobunaga's fiefdom——Guye City is much smaller, and it doesn't look too prosperous.When the sedan chair passed through the streets of the city, many people looked around from the alley, obviously curious about Meinong's visitors.
The mansion of the lord of the castle was built on the highest point of the land. It is a whole wooden flat house with the papaya pattern of the Oda family painted on the living wood panel door.However, this kamon is said to be a papaya, but it is actually more like a five-petal cherry blossom. Similar ikamon patterns were extremely popular among daimyo at that time.
After the sedan chair passed the gate of the house and landed in the courtyard, Yuna glimpsed through the cracks in the sedan chair curtain a crowd of people gathered outside, most of them were maids and warriors of the Oda family.
"Is the person in this sedan chair the Lord Guidie from Meinong Kingdom?"
The samurai of the Oda family asked solemnly.
Xiao Cangjing, who was escorting the princess to get married, was a little guilty, with cold sweat on his forehead, and replied: "Exactly... I am here at Xiaocang Zuo Zangjing, with the order and customs clearance of the Patriarch Mino Kingdom's guardian generation on his body." Please take a look at the documents." After speaking, he handed over a small scroll as wide as a palm.
The samurai of the Oda family took the scroll, untied the black silk thread that bound it, and after reading it carefully, he felt relieved: "Okay! Greetings, Master Guicho."
As soon as these words came out, the warriors behind him knelt down in unison, and the armor made a light friction sound.The maids who came to serve also bowed their heads in salute, proving that they recognized that the person in the cage was the future mistress of the city.
Suppressing his guilty conscience, Xiao Cang glanced around, but did not see a leader like the Lord, so he asked, "Excuse me... Lord... Where is Mr. Nobunaga?"
"Lord Nobunaga went out to let the falcons go, but he hasn't returned yet!" The samurai of the Oda family replied.
"Release the falcons?!" Xiao Cang was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Our Princess has come all the way from a long way, but Lord Nobunaga actually chose this day to go out to releave the falcons?!"
"Yes!" The samurai of the Oda family replied even louder.
Xiao Cang had nothing to say, and secretly complained in his heart, "You deserve to be the big fool of Owari".
In Oda's lineage, this Nobunaga-sama is famous for his eccentric behavior and idleness. He not only regards the rules as nothing, but also provokes troubles all day long.In the past, Nobunaga, as the heir of the separated family, even almost fought with the young masters of the Oda Yu family in Qingzhou City. This kind of behavior is unimaginable in other families.
Nobunaga got the title of "Owari Idiot" very early because of his bad behavior and weird things all day long.Now the sedan chair of Princess Butterfly has arrived
Now, Nobunaga is not in a hurry to see what his future wife looks like, but instead excitedly let the eagle go, which is really rare!
Isn't it important that the wife doesn't have an eagle?
Ogura frantically complained about the barrage in his heart.
——However, that's fine too.After all, Lord Gui Die in the cage is a fake, it is best for that Lord Nobunaga not to come back for three days, and it will not be too late to show up again when the real Lord Gui Die arrives!
Thinking of this, Xiao Cang immediately showed a smiling face and said: "Master Xinda is so leisurely! It just so happens that our princess is also a little tired, so please let Master Xinda let go of the eagle slowly and let Master Guidie rest for a while." Bar."
"You're right." The samurai of the Oda family breathed a sigh of relief, obviously guilty of their lord's rude behavior.They immediately remedied and said, "Master Guidie's room is ready, please go with the maid. Five days later, the wedding will be held in Gudu City."
Gudu City is the fief of Nobunaga's father, Oda Nobuhide. As Nobunaga's heir, Nobunaga's wedding ceremony will naturally be held in this city.
"Okay, Master Guidie, please get out of the sedan chair first." Xiao Cang turned around and faced the sedan chair.
The maids slowly rolled up the curtain of the sedan chair, tied it to the top with yellow tassels, and helped the woman in the sedan chair to step out.
It was a slender young girl, with black hair like yuzen satin hanging down her waist, wearing a jacket with a pattern of fluttering butterflies on the snow bottom, with purple small sleeves inside, and the silhouette exposed from the side. Look, she is very beautiful.It's just that when she got out of the sedan chair, she quietly pulled out the juniper fan from her waist, opened it slowly, and covered half of her face, as if she didn't want others to see her face.
"See Lord Guidie." The warriors of the Oda family saw her get off the sedan chair, and saluted again.
The woman still covered her face with the juniper fan, and said "please get up".Although she covered her face, she could see the beautiful facial features, and her snow-white skin couldn't hide it.
It seems that the princess of Mino Kingdom is the same as the rumors, she is obviously a rare beauty.
The samurai of the Oda family became agitated, secretly happy that their lord was lucky enough to marry a real beauty.After all, in this era of marriage, most couples get married based on the opinions of their parents, and get engaged due to alliances or exchange of interests. Marriage is like smoking a blind box. No one knows what the other party looks like until the wedding night.
It is a surprise that Master Gui Die is so beautiful.
Under the guidance of the maid, Yuna, who pretended to be Saito Kaicho, walked towards the room where she was staying.
Although she has memories of the Warring States Period, she hasn't worn this kind of tail-dragging jacket for a long time, and it is quite uncomfortable to walk.In particular, she had to cover her face with a juniper fan with one hand, which was extremely inconvenient.
The maid who led the way saw her covering her face all the time, and asked curiously, "Why does Master Gui Die keep covering his face with a fan?"
"Because..." Yuna looked up guiltily, "Because the pollen on the road gave rise to a rash on her face, and before she could cover it with makeup, she couldn't see it." She couldn't say, she was in a hurry , doesn't look like a 14-year-old girl at all, so cover your face with a fan to prevent your retainers from seeing the clues!
Finally, she arrived in the room where she was placed and could sit down.
The "retainers" who followed her—Kemararu, Tokiri, and Minoru Ogura, who was so nervous that he was sweating all over his head, all knelt down and sat down.close the door, the room
The space became the world of Saito's own people.
There are three entrances to this room, from the wooden sill window, you can overlook the green hills outside Furuno City, and the scenery is elegant.The tents and curtains in the house are all newly replaced, and the colors are bright as if they have just been taken off the dyeing rack.Although Oda Nobunaga himself seemed unreliable, Furuno Castle's preparations were thoughtful, showing his sincerity for the marriage.
"It's finally been fooled..." Xiaocang wiped the thin sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and prayed in a muttered voice, "I hope Master Nobunaga will go out to watch the eagles now, and don't come back within three days! Master Guidie, can you Be sure to come back safely!"
Ogura looked guilty and nervous, compared to Higakiri and Kagemaru who seemed quite calm.Higakiri even got up, leisurely swayed to the wooden sill window, and gazed at the scenery outside the window with great interest.
"Nikko...no, Mr. Guicho." Knee Maru sat on his knees, opened his mouth to Yuna above him, and asked, "If that Oda Nobunaga comes later, do you know what to do?"
Yuna put away the juniper fan, patted her palms for fear, and said tentatively, "Salute?"
"It's more than that." Keimaru, with the appearance of a mentor, taught her earnestly, "Because Nobunaga-sama is the future husband, so, as a newlywed, when you meet your future husband, you need to show Show your shyness and admiration. As for how to express it, it depends on yourself. This is etiquette!"
"'Shyness and admiration'...?" Yuna hesitated.
"Exactly."
Although there are a considerable number of couples in the Warring States who have never met each other before they got married, for the stability of the marriage, both parties still need to show their love, even if the bride really didn't know what her husband was before she got married. That also shows her shyness and admiration.
On the contrary, the husband should also give the main wife a certain dignity, so as to strengthen the marriage.Just as the legitimate son born in the main room must have more inheritance rights than the concubine born in the concubine. +;;;.
"Let me think about what to do." Yuna fell into deep thought.
+;;;.
The serious Saito Guidie must have received etiquette training before getting married, and knows how to show her admiration to her husband; as for whether the husband accepts it, that is another matter.However, Yuna really doesn't understand these things.
Keimaru took a step forward, sat cross-legged in front of her, and said, "Nikko, you can try me as your husband?"
"Eh?" Yuna was stunned for a moment, her tone was a bit shy, "That said, it's too inappropriate to treat Mr. Kagemaru as your husband"...
"Is there any problem?" Kemimaru obviously didn't notice anything wrong, "It's just to prevent Nobunaga from getting suspicious too quickly. Well, try it quickly. In case Nobunaga is coming back soon, you But it will be revealed immediately!"
Having said that, Yuna immediately felt a sense of urgency.
She clenched her cypress fan tightly and stared at Kagemaru, trying to find the so-called "shyness and admiration" feeling.But Kagemaru's expression looked really upright, which made her completely unable to think about it.After staring at it for a while, I couldn't help laughing.
"Your Majesty Kagemaru! Your expression is too serious..." She smiled with trembling shoulders
.
Seeing this, Kagemaru rubbed his brows and sighed: "Don't laugh... When I see Nobunaga laughing out loud, what should I do?" He clasped Yuna's hand, and his tone resumed Seriously, "Okay, try again and treat me as your husband."
Yuna tried her best to restrain her smile and calmed down.
Love and shyness...
That was a rare emotion for her.
What kind of man would she admire? ...Is it like the master?
Thinking of the monk who was sitting behind the bamboo curtain and slowly copying Buddhist scriptures, the number beads wrapped around his wrist, the hem of the five-color Zen robe, and the fine snow that covered the moonlit night, her expression suddenly froze slightly. one time.
If today, the person who stepped into this room to meet her and held her hand was the lord...
"……sunlight?"
An inexplicable tension surged from her heart, her eyes flickered slightly, and the tips of her ears turned red.She couldn't help lowering her eyes, and once again covered her face with a folding fan, so as not to let others see the thin crimson color climbing up from her neck.
"Yes, yes... I am here." She replied in a very soft voice.
Seeing her like this, Kagemaru was a little dazed.
The woman in front of her shyly turned her face sideways, half-covered her eyebrows and eyes with a juniper fan, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, hiding the water in her eyes.Anyone who reads it will understand that this is a girl who is deeply in love, and just because she saw the long-awaited young master Pianpian, she has the intention of retreating.
Such an expression does not seem to be fake.
It's not like acting fake to prepare for the arrival of Oda Nobunaga, but more like... There is really someone I admire in my heart, and I can't help showing my shyness at this moment.
Who is that admirer?
"interesting."
This voice brought Kagemaru back to his senses, and he noticed a ray of interested eyes falling on him.He raised his head, only to realize that it was his elder brother Hikiri who was standing in the corridor overlooking the mountain view, rubbing his chin and looking at him with that interesting look.
That "interesting" sound was also what Higakiri said.
The elder brother's gaze made Kenmaru feel a little embarrassed.Kagemaru coughed, suppressed the strange conjecture in his heart, and said: "Nikko, you did a good job, that's it! It's almost the same as the real thing! Oda Nobunaga will definitely believe your intentions."
His loud words ruined the atmosphere too much, Yuna recovered from the love bubble in seconds, and the redness on her face faded.
Standing in front of the window on the wooden sill, Hidekiri chuckled, paced back slowly, and said, "Instead of saying 'almost the same as the real thing', it's better to say 'it's real'. … Nikko, are you Do you like anyone in Honmaru?"
"Eh?"
Yuna was a little surprised by Hikiri's sudden question.But Mustache slightly tilted his head, and those mysterious golden eyes were observing her with great interest, as if they could see through all the little thoughts, making people afraid to lie in front of him.
"Brother! Don't ask such impolite questions!" Katsumaru hurriedly stopped his brother's behavior, "What's 'like, don't like'... Isn't it good to ask a girl such a question?"
Mustache cut his eyes lightly, and his smile became more lively: "If my question is rude, then your behavior is even more extreme. Let the sun treat you as a 'future husband' and face you Show 'shyness and affection'...really
Very bullying. "
Keimaru was a little puzzled: "I'm just helping her find a way to deal with Nobunaga! How can this be considered bullying?"
"Oh?" Mustache raised the corners of his lips, as if there was something behind the scenes, "Did you accidentally do such a bullying thing? That would be even more extreme."
Xiwan was really confused. ——What are you talking about, brother?Why did he bully people?Why did he bully Sunshine?
Seeing that the two brothers seemed to have a misunderstanding, Yuna quickly smoothed things over: "It's okay, it's okay, Mr. Higakiri, thank you for thinking about me. But all of this is for the mission, and I don't feel offended. Moreover, His Majesty Keimaru is a very upright person, and he will never have the idea of 'bullying me'."
Hearing her speak for herself, Keimaru seemed very touched: "Nikko..."
"Really?" Hisakiri raised his eyebrows lightly, and said in a tone that made it uncertain whether he believed the words.
This is really an unpredictable brother.
Yuna smiled embarrassingly for a while, and then breathed a sigh of relief seeing that the two brothers didn't say anything more.
The samurai Ogura, who was unable to participate in the topic and was very nervous, took the initiative to take on the job of a servant, made tea and served it to the three of them, and gave the first cup to Yuna. "Tea, please. This...Master Sunlight." Xiao Cang couldn't figure out what to call the three monster exorcists, "I hope your companions can find Master Guidie soon."
Yuna nodded and held up her teacup.As soon as she took a breath, she heard the maid's nervous communication voice from outside the door: "Master Guidie! Master Nobunaga is back! We have arrived in the corridor, please prepare..." Before he finished speaking, Shoko The sliding door of the paper was pushed open with a bang, and a man's figure appeared at the door, and several elderly maids shoved around him.
"Lord Nobunaga! Before the wedding ceremony, you must never come to the bride's room! Please go to the meeting place, so it is in line with the rules..." The old maids persuaded them earnestly.
However, the lord didn't seem to care about the so-called "rules" that the maids said, and still strode forward.
The person who dared to enter and leave the room belonging to the princess of Mino Kingdom so presumptuously should be the owner of Furuno Castle, Saito Kicho's fiancé Oda Nobunaga.
Yuna glanced at him hastily, only to see that he was a tall young man with sun-tanned skin and a long ponytail. He was wearing the coir raincoat that fishermen wore when they went out to fish, and there was a cloak hanging around his waist. A bunch of funny dried radishes.
She didn't take a closer look at the rest of the appearance, but hurriedly pulled back her shorts, bowed her body and saluted: "I've seen Mr. Nobunaga."
Thinking of Keimaru's instructions, she quickly began to pretend to be the so-called "shyness and admiration".Just as she unfolded the juniper fan, her wrist was grabbed, and the other party pulled her up heavily, and asked, "Are you the returning butterfly of Mino Kingdom?!"
"Um……?!"
Before the voice of the answer landed, the tall young man took her hand and walked towards the corridor. His steps were huge, and he laughed and said on the way: "Go! I will take you to ride a horse!"
The "shyness and admiration" she had worked so hard to train in front of the knee pills didn't even have a chance to show it.
The old maids screamed and quickly stopped them: "No! Absolutely not! This is against the rules! Mr. Nobunaga, if Mr. Xinxiu
Got it, that would be bad! "
"What are you afraid of!" Nobunaga laughed more and more.
The old maids were all wearing long skirts, and they could only walk with small steps. They couldn't catch up with Nobunaga, who had a big horse with a golden sword. They could only watch helplessly as their patriarch walked towards the stable with his unmarried wife.
To be honest, Yuna stumbled and felt uncomfortable.Although the boy holding her wrist was only 15 years old, his strength was definitely not small.I don't know if it's because he was naughty since he was a child, he often climbed trees and got involved in fights, but Nobunaga's physique is much taller than his peers, and his arms are full of strength, holding her hands like iron clamps. break free.
She tried her best to lift the hem of the gown, so as not to trip and fall.Trotting all the way, cautiously, was dragged to the stable by Nobunaga.
"Can you ride a horse?" Nobunaga stood beside a brown horse, "A woman from the Samurai family should know how to ride a horse!"
"...Only a little bit." She said bravely.In fact, she doesn't know how to ride a horse at all. Before Tsurumaru wanted to teach her, before she had time to learn, Tsurumaru was sanctioned by Candlestick Qiege on the spot.
"Ah?" Nobunaga seemed a little surprised, but he didn't say much. Instead, he stretched his hands and easily carried her to the horse, turning over and riding on it himself.He tightened the rein of the horse and said with a smile, "Sit still! I'll take you to the city to have a look!"
The saddle is very narrow, and it will be very crowded for two people to sit together.Yuna had never ridden a horse before, so she was a little stiff at the moment, and she held the corner of the rein tightly to prevent herself from falling.
The young man behind her untied his coir raincoat, handed it to the servants who were chasing him, and soon rode his horse towards the gate of the house.
The servants who were belatedly saw Nobunaga riding a horse, and hurriedly shouted, "Open the door—open the door—Master Nobunaga is going down to the city!"
Therefore, before Nobunaga's horse arrived, the door of the mansion opened, just enough to allow Oda Nobunaga to ride out of the city smoothly all the way without stopping.
The guards and servants didn't know that the lord was going out of the city, and they were all doing their own things, such as moving the princess's dowry, newly harvested grain and weapons. When they suddenly saw the lord Nobunaga coming on horseback, they squatted down in panic and saluted. Send the lord out.For a while, there was a panic inside and outside the house.
After leaving the gate of the house, there is a wide bridle path leading to the lower town of Furuno Castle.The horse's hooves stepped on the muddy road, causing the rider's body to be quite bumpy. Yuna, who was sitting on the horse, became more and more nervous, and her body shivered a little.
It was near evening, and the sky was dotted with a round of fading sun, and the golden-black sunset slanted across the houses, mountains, and fields, painting everything with a layer of harmonious brilliance.Nobunaga whipped his horsewhip, walked through the muddy alleyway, and headed straight for the city gate.Because the horse was too fast, it almost hit a steamed bun stand on the road.
When the horse finally stopped, it was already on a cliff outside the city.
In the evening of early spring, the chilly spring is coming, and there are birds still nesting in the forest chirping.Nobunaga's horse stopped at the top of the cliff, panting and neighing heavily, the horse's hooves kicked and kicked continuously, as if exhausted.
"You can see the complete sunset here." The young man behind her raised his horsewhip and pointed to the direction of the sky, "The sun will completely set in a while, so watch carefully."
Yuna looked around, and sure enough, she saw that the golden-red sun had sunk more than half of the skyline.Even at this moment when the sun is setting, the golden light pours on
The wilderness scene is also exceptionally magnificent.
"It's so beautiful." She couldn't help admiring.
"Aren't you scared by me?" Nobunaga asked suddenly.In his voice, there was the heartiness of a young man, "When the eagle came back, I saw that the sun was going to set, so I hurried back to the city and picked you up to watch the sunset. Fortunately, I caught up with it!"
Hearing this, Yuna was a little puzzled: "If that's the case, why did Mr. Nobunaga go out today? I heard that you went out to falconry today. If you didn't go to falconry, maybe you wouldn't have to be so hasty."
"Because I made a promise with the child." Nobunaga said, "The child in the city likes to watch my eagle. Today is the child's birthday, so I went out of the city to release the eagle."
His answer was so natural that it made people feel that the son of the common people who wanted to see the eagle was as important as Princess Meinong who was about to marry him.I don't know whether it should be said that he is playful, so that there is no distinction between superiors and inferiors; or that he is straightforward by nature and can get along with anyone.
"Are you hungry?" Nobunaga suddenly asked.Then, he turned over and got off the horse, took a dried radish from his waist, and handed it to her, "Eat this!"
"...Huh?" Yuna took the carrot as thick as a finger, a little speechless.
Your majestic city lord, the future overlord of the world, invite people to eat a dried radish right now?Although she is a fake princess, she is here to be a fake princess in order to protect history! (Strictly speaking)
... Forget it, there is nothing wrong with radishes, they are very healthy and nutritious.
She lifted the radish and took a small bite, it was quite crunchy.The taste was a bit strange, so she stopped after taking a bite.Holding the radish, she looked down at Nobunaga, who was 15 years old.
There was some mud on the boy's face, and he didn't know where he rolled, but he had a pair of extremely black, bright and sharp eyes, which did not look mediocre at all, but were as bright as a blade.
Shi Zai Nobunaga was a rare handsome man in the Warring States Period, but judging from his current dirty appearance, Nobunaga doesn't care about the reputation of "beautiful man" at all. The direction is correct.
Sensing that Yuna was watching him, Nobunaga, who was nibbling on a carrot, raised his head and asked, "What's wrong? Are you scared by me?"
Yuna shook her head with a smile, and said, "I just feel that Nobunaga-sama is very willful, which is different from the rumors."
"Oh? Rumors?" Nobunaga seemed to be interested, "What kind of me are you rumored?"
Yuna stuttered.
How should I put it, Oda Nobunaga in the legends of later generations is probably inseparable from the image of "the overlord of the world". He dominates the world with martial arts; In the letter, he even signed himself as the "Sixth Heaven Demon King" in the letter - the rumored Nobunaga is such a character.
But now Nobunaga, with mud on his face, was gnawing on a crispy radish in front of her.
Yuna pursed her lips and laughed: "The rumors in our place say that Mr. Nobunaga is a decisive, cruel and straightforward person. Looking at it now, cruelty is not enough, and straightforwardness does exist."
After hearing this, Nobunaga stared straight at her with those dark eyes, as if he wanted to say something.After a while, he swallowed the last bite of radish and said, "Guidie, you are beautiful."
His compliment was so straightforward that Yuu
Na is a little guilty.
I'm sorry, but she's actually not the genuine Gui Die... just a counterfeit who fished in troubled waters and was driven off the shelves.
But her return to the butterfly is much more reliable than the time-traveling military version of Saito's return to the butterfly!The return butterfly of the retrograde army is terrible, and he will give you a slap in the face when he comes up, and Oda Nobunaga will be gone immediately.
"Has anyone ever praised you like that?" Nobunaga stepped on the pedals and got on the horse again, apparently planning to return to Furuno Castle, "Although I've heard that you are beautiful, I never thought you were so beautiful."
Yuna blinked and said, "Don't you think... I look older?" She looks like a big sister no matter what!
"I don't think so." Nobunaga said, "I just think it's very beautiful, and I don't notice anything else."
She laughed silently, and said, "Master Nobunaga, if you only praise a woman's appearance, it will make people angry. Women are not just playthings for appearance, you should pay attention to it anyway."
"I see!" Nobunaga reined in the horse, turned around and rode down the mountain, his voice was very loud, "I will praise your other advantages more in the future! Guidie!"
The setting sun sank into the sky, Oda Nobunaga carried her, slowed down the horse pace, and leisurely returned to the city.When we got to the bottom of the city, a beautiful crescent moon had already risen in the sky, and Furuno City was enveloped by the gentle moonlight, showing a kind of quiet beauty.
"Lord Nobunaga and Lord Guidie are back!"
The door of the house was opened, and the guards rushed to lead the horses, and the maid handed over thirst-quenching water and cloth towels for wiping hands.The old maid who was in charge of the female family's internal affairs blocked the door angrily and said, "Lord Nobunaga! You must never do such rude things again next time. If you offend the Saito family of Mino Kingdom because of your rudeness ,so what should I do now?"
Nobunaga wiped his face with a towel, with a nonchalant expression: "Gui Die won't be angry."
"No? How could it not be? You just met her, how do you know that she won't be angry?" The old maid turned around anxiously, "Master Gui Die is the princess of Mino Kingdom, of course she will treat this kind of innocent Li Zhixing is offended!"
+;;;.
Yuna jumped off the horse lightly, persuading: "I... I'm really not angry." After all, she is not a real princess.
"You...you too!" The old maid turned her firepower, "Next, you must never meet Mr. Nobunaga without authorization until you go to Gudu City to hold a wedding ceremony with Mr. Nobunaga five days later!"
"Okay." She wished so, and replied politely, "I understand."
In order to avoid being attacked by the old maid, Yuna quickly slipped away and headed for her resting room.When she was about to leave, she was stopped by Nobunaga.The boy was wiping his sweat, he waved to her from a distance, and said, "Gui Die, you are really beautiful."
The moonlight fell on him, like a layer of silver paint.
"...I understand." She didn't know what to reply, so she bowed her knees and hurried away with her back turned.
She still held a piece of dried radish in her hand, which was given to her by Nobunaga.She didn't eat it because it didn't suit her taste, but she was too embarrassed to throw it away, so she could only hold it in her hand and play with it.
She turned the pitiful radish, thinking of the profile of the boy pointing at the setting sun with a horsewhip, she thought it was very funny, and couldn't help but curl her lips.
Before returning to her room, she met Hikari in the hallway.
Probably because the strange clothes were too eye-catching, Mustache switched to an ordinary samurai kimono, wearing a haori with the Ogura family crest and a squirrel-colored hakama, which looked a bit like a warrior from the Warring States Period.
"This outfit..." Yuna asked with some doubts.
"It was given to me by the man named Xiao Cang." Hikakiri raised his hand, looked at the sleeve, and said, "It fits pretty well."
To be honest, Yuna doesn't think the dress fits her well.Mustache looked like a leisurely rich man, and Xiao Cang's clothes were too shabby.But Higiri obviously didn't care, and seemed very happy because of it, as if he got an interesting new toy.
"That Nobunaga-sama, where did he take you?" Hikakiri asked with great interest looking at the soothing smile on Yuna's face.
"Riding... out of the city and watching the sunset." She counted with her fingers.
"You're not really attracted to that Lord Nobunaga, are you?" Mustache tilted his head, his smile was pure and innocent, seemingly without any malice, but the question he asked was a bit sharp, "If you are moved by that Lord Nobunaga , that would be bad."
Yuna immediately shook her head: "How is that possible. Mr. Tokiri, what are you talking about?"——to want her to like a little brother with a muddy face and a radish in his hand?Let's talk about it in the next life!
"That's good." Mustache rolled his eyes and nodded.Then, he did a strange thing—he took the little radish from Yuna's hand, weighed it in front of his eyes, and asked suspiciously, "What is this? Garbage?"
"...just treat you as trash." Yuna sighed.
Such an answer made Higiri laugh out loud.He hung the poor little radish on the branch, and said to her: "Go back to the room quickly. My brother seems to be waiting impatiently. By the way, my brother...what's his name?"
"...?!" Yuna almost staggered.She couldn't help complaining in her heart: Did it start again!Hisashikiri-dono's amnesia!
"It's the knee ball." She replied, stretching out her hand to open the sliding door.
When she was about to enter the room, Mustache suddenly reached out to stop her.Facing Yuna's bewildered gaze, Higakiri smiled again, and said, "I forgot to say. If—I mean, if, Nikko, you got too involved in the drama and did something inappropriate, I will Use my own method to wake you up."
Saying that, Mustache's smiling lips raised even more.
His smile is very innocent, like a flawless innocent child who is doted on by the sun and sunshine.But what he said had to make people think a little more, so that they wondered if there was something deeper hidden under Mr.
"Use His Excellency's own method...to wake me up?...What do you mean?" She was a little puzzled, but Hikiri didn't explain any further, just stepped behind the door and asked, " Chest ball, are you there?"
"...Brother, my name is Knee Maru! Knee Maru!" Knee Maru's roar came from the room.
Yuna looked at Hikari's back and tilted her head, always feeling that what Hikari said just now was almost like her hallucination.
◎The author has something to say:
By the way, let's talk about instant love with Nobunaga
It's a single arrow, if it doesn't take shape, it will cause a miscarriage
