Su Shuang's world is collapsing [Comprehensive]

Chapter 624 [Chapter 4] 47

As Fujiwara Hidehiro, the real master of the Oshu Fujiwara family for decades, said, in the afternoon of this day, a lot of thick clouds suddenly surged in the clear sky, gradually dyeing the blue sky into blue. grey.

... It's going to change.

The other five people called "Six Flowers" still waited outside the hall of the Gala Imperial Palace, but the one in the head re-entered the hall with Izumi Gozen to meet Lord Hidehiro.

After he came to Hiraizumi, because of his outstanding demeanor, elegant demeanor, and rare handsome face, he has caused a lot of speculation and discussion.

Around him, there are also many legends that seem true and false.For example, it is said that the Kamakura Temple once praised, "The Heike family has Major General Sakuraba, and our Genji also has a romantic figure comparable to Major Sakuramei."

For another example, it was rumored that he was the illegitimate son of a dignified but elegant man in the capital. Although he could not be publicly acknowledged, he wanted to cultivate him, so he was sent to the Kamakura Palace where he was in full swing. His subordinates, so that he can have a good future——However, I don’t know what Kamakura’s plan is, but let him come to Hiraizumi to work for Izumi Gozen, which is tantamount to sending a talented person to Oshu!

As such, rumors abound.However, even if his position seems to be on Genji's side, it is difficult to shake everyone's preconceived favor for him.

In the hall of the Jialuo Imperial Palace, when Fujiwara Hidehiro, the patriarch of the Oshu Fujiwara Clan, finally saw this legendary figure who was as elegant as Major General Yingmei, he couldn't help admiring despite his ulterior motives: "It's really a man who lives up to his reputation." ! In time, I will definitely be able to become a high priest with this talent and appearance..."

Liu Quan's inner OS: ...this world is based on faces!

Sanri Yue Zongjin: "Ahahahaha... It is a great honor to be praised by the lord."

He actually played the role of the legendary "the illegitimate son of a big man in Beijing, the elegant man sent by the Kamakura Temple to Hiraizumi to serve Izumi Gozen" in such a sympathetic way.

Of course, after Fujiwara Hidehiro "appreciated him very much", he gave him a banquet with great enthusiasm and specially invited him to the table.

No one knows exactly what happened that night.When Fujiwara Yasuhiro questioned him, the attendants of the Gara Imperial Palace just described it like this:

The master of the imperial hall had a banquet in the back garden at night, and the three halls of comforting Liuquan Yuqian and his close retainers and the head of the "Six Flowers" were also listed in the banquet.At first, the atmosphere was very good, Master Yuguan even retreated the servants to the outside room, and jokingly said that he wanted to witness the skill of the sword dance of the three masters, who was as handsome as Major General Yingmei.However, not long after, for some unknown reason in the hall, Sanjoden turned against Lord Yuguan, and stabbed Lord Yuguan with the sword used in the sword dance.Master Yuguan didn't have time to react in a hurry, and his retreat was blocked by Izumi Yuqian, so unfortunately he was stabbed——

However, this story, in the eyes of Sankai Yuezong, known as the "Three Palaces", is like this:

After a long audience, the female judge finally withdrew from the hall and came to the side hall where they, the mourning gods, were waiting.

Although the heroic laughter of the Lord of Ozhou was vaguely heard from the hall during the audience, the female examiner who returned to them looked more tired than ever before.

After responding to their inquiry about "how was the interview" with silence, the female interrogator seemed to have finally made up her mind, and after confirming that no one was peeping around, she said something terrible.

She said that the Lord of Oshu claimed that he would not have much time to come, but in order to contain the situation of the battle with death and delay the time for the next war with Genji, he decided to direct and perform an assassination by himself.

She said that since her identity here is "Izumi Gozen" from Genji, she was forced to agree to Hidehiro Fujiwara's request to be the assassin.

After everyone showed extremely shocked expressions, the female interrogator seemed to think for a while before slowly expressing her plan.

She said that, in her opinion, there are only a few important nodes that can shake the plot—the assassination of Fujiwara Yasuhiro, the return of Hakuryu Shinko, and what she is about to face now, the death of Fujiwara Hidehiro, the third generation patriarch of the Oshu Fujiwara family. .

She said that she thinks the farthest time period they can go back is only here, and if it goes any further, it will be too far away from the battle of Oshu and Azuga Shishan to shake the plot.And the last time when Fujiwara Yasuhiro was assassinated, she tried to directly get rid of the Kawada Jiro who was supposed to assassinate him in the future but acted in advance, but encountered a rebound from historical inertia and failed, which shows that the method was wrong of.

She said that now there is such a great opportunity to test whether another important node works-that is, to use the assassination of Fujiwara Hidehiro to see if history can return to the original point if the plot of this event is changed.

She said that it was necessary for them to cooperate with Fujiwara Hidehiro's plan and pretend to assassinate each other.Maybe Fujiwara Hidehiro has a more far-reaching purpose than this, but they can at least use this opportunity to try what they want to achieve.

In the end, she looked him straight in the face, and said the most incredible arrangement of the affair.

He was the assassin chosen by Hidehiro Fujiwara.

Before pretending to be the vassal who was so loyal to Izumi Yuqian, and even made people feel that there was some ambiguous emotion in it, and followed the female judge to re-enter the hall of Jialuo Imperial Palace, the two of them walked alone on the long corridor Suddenly, the female interrogator said to him without turning her head: "Actually, what awaits us in front of us is probably a trap. I hope it's because my heart is dark and I'm thinking wrong."

He stopped at that moment and looked at her with a hint of surprise.

Under the cover of the gradually approaching night and the gradual lighting of candles in the Jialuo Imperial Palace, her expression appeared a little blurred.

She turned her head slowly, looked at him and said, "The assassin that person really wants to choose should be me."

Before he deliberately showed a look of surprise, she turned around again, looked at the winding corridor in front of her, and smiled.

She said: "However, in the final analysis, that adult chose you to take the blame for me because you always make everyone misunderstand that you are the most proud and trustworthy person around me."

At that moment, he felt that he had several things to say - such as what it meant to "take the blame", how she was aware of Fujiwara Hidehiro's intention to kill her and her plan to trap her forever. If he chooses to follow the plan now, will he really want to assassinate Fujiwara Hidehiro in the end—but in the end, he just smiled lightly and replied, "Oh? So, am I?"

His question was not answered.

Because the servants of the Gala Imperial Palace had already appeared in the corridor in time, and then reported to her that Master Yuguan was going to hold a moon appreciation banquet, and said that since Izumi Yuqian was also in the Galo Imperial Palace, then let's come together.

This must have been a pre-discussed dialogue, but looking at the female interrogator who walked into the hall calmly, he suddenly found that there seemed to be something about her that was different from before.

When we first met, he just thought this was a child with extraordinary courage—after all, if a girl who disguised herself as a man in a murderous group like the Shinsengumi to fight and kill, if her courage and swordsmanship were not extraordinary words are impossible to achieve.

However, he seems to have only recently begun to realize that in the Shinsengumi killing group, disguised as a man to fight and kill, and at the same time gain the understanding and trust of all important cadres, it is not something that can be achieved only by courage or swordsmanship .

She has a wonderful ability to [use her courage to make the other party trust her].

Moreover, she is not the kind of foolhardy person.Even if the opponent is an old fox like Fujiwara Hidehira who is used to hiding his true thoughts with a bold laugh, it seems that it is not an easy thing to use her.

He thought so when he followed her into the hall and saluted Fujiwara Hidehiro, the lord of Oshu.

...So, what is popping up in my heart now...?

It didn't seem to be nervous, because he didn't seem to have such emotions before.

It didn't seem to be a warning, because somehow, he suddenly felt that as long as the two of them went out together, no matter what kind of things could be solved-this is a kind of confidence, right?

Then, when he watched her walk towards Fujiwara Hidehira calmly, she seemed to stand in one position as they had discussed in advance, and then motioned him to stand in the opposite direction to "perform the sword dance for the Hideo Hall", And when he realized that the positions of the two of them were enough to block all of Fujiwara Hidehiro's retreats—this was probably what she had discussed with the Lord of Oshu—what exactly came to his mind.

When he danced the sword casually according to her instructions, and suddenly changed the direction of the knife and stabbed Fujiwara Hidehiro, he suddenly understood.

That feeling is worry.

He worries about her doing something crazy that he won't be able to deal with in time—even if it's good for the world.

Ah, from this point of view, she really looks like an excellent member of the Shinsengumi?Because this kind of style of "doing crazy things but also carrying out your beliefs" is not unique to those people.

He didn't know what kind of expression he had on his face, and he watched the Lord of Ozhou—the old man with a raging beard, a very bold smile, and a very majestic face when he lowered his face—on the edge of his blade. He pretended to be true and asked, "What are you going to do? Are you trying to assassinate the commander of Oshu?" Then, while shouting, "Come on!", he turned his head and rushed towards the direction where the Goddess was standing.

...And then, his calmness seemed to come to an end in an instant.

Because, he suddenly discovered that a gleaming, unsheathed short knife unexpectedly appeared in the hand of the female judge at some point!

...Is this what she discussed with the Lord of Oshu...? !

The next moment he got the answer.

Because Fujiwara Hidehiro seemed to have staggered and fled in her direction from the moment his knife changed direction and stabbed at him, as if he didn't care about chasing after him because he was ordered to do so, as if he wanted to Like the assassin, he ran and shouted, "Miss Zezi, save me!"

Here, it's all the same script as she told him.He assassinated the third-generation leader of the Oshu Fujiwara Clan "because of his strong jealousy and loyalty to Kamakura-den" because Mr. Hidehiro was planning to send him a gift for his son, the successor of the next head of the family, Taiheng-den and Genji. The married Miss Zezi held a formal ceremony, and he wanted to stop the ceremony; of course, as the goal of changing Lord Taiheng's attitude towards Miss Zezi, Miss Zezi must immediately come out to protect Lord Xiuheng, without hesitation. Abandoning his seemingly loyal retainer who was full of admiration for her——

However, the next moment, he saw an incredible scene.

Facing the sharp blade suddenly held in the hand of the Goddess, the Lord of Ozhou had no intention of dodging.

The old man just paused for a moment, then continued to rush in the direction of the female examiner.

Sanri Yuezong turned slightly to the side of the saber, and slashed at them.

When he slashed, he had intentionally missed Fujiwara Hidehiro's body. If Hidehiro had maintained the previous path, his saber would have brushed against Hidehiro's shoulder, slanted to the right, and swept across the opponent's arm. of.

But the next moment he heard the old man groan in pain.

"Uh!!"

Sanri Yuezong's crescent-shaped pupils slightly widened for an instant.

He heard the female interrogator also laugh softly.

"Ha ha ha ha ha……"

Unexpectedly, the tone of her next sentence was as gentle as if nothing had happened.

"Xiuheng Palace, it must have been designed a long time ago."

she says.In the naturally hanging right hand, the short knife held was covered with blood, and the bright red blood dripped on the ground beside her feet.

Fujiwara Hidehiro clutched a place between his waist and abdomen, as if the pain made him unable to stand up straight with dignity, he stood there slightly hunched, his face pale, and he let out an intermittent low smile.

"It's really...unbelievable...little girl, you're so...so calm, it's because...you guessed it, what I really want you to...to complete, isn't it—?"

Unexpectedly, the calm sharpness that she showed in the corridor outside the hall before disappeared without a trace, and now the female examiner raised her eyes to look at the wounded Master Xiuheng in front of her. .

He looked over Fujiwara Hidehiro's hunched shoulder and saw that look.

...Completely, it looks like she is suffering from love, almost desperate.Anyone who sees it will feel the hopeless love surging in her chest.

Then, he heard her trembling voice, but said in an unusually calm tone: "...After hearing this proposal, I quickly understood."

Fujiwara Hidehiro: "...Oh?!"
