Chapter 892 [Chapter 4] 309
Later, fortunately, there were horses brought by the Five Tigers, together with a few horses collected by the general's guards in a hurry.
However, after barely breaking through and returning to Erjo City, I closed the door and took stock, only to realize that the general's entourage and guards had suffered heavy losses.
Mrs. Xinzi was so frightened that her legs and feet became weak and she couldn't walk. In the end, she rode with Liu Quan on a ride, and relying on Liu Quan to ride the horse, she was able to return to Ertiao City.On the general's side, although there were more than a dozen people riding horses to follow the general to break out of the tight encirclement, facing the situation that Erjo Castle was besieged by the miyoshi tribe who caught up, even if this manpower was added to the nearby subordinates who stayed behind today, it was still enough. not enough.
Faced with such a desperate situation, Ashikaga Yoshiki restored the calmness of the superior.
He ordered all the female relatives and maids below Mrs. Xinzi to go to wash and rest, because "there will be a banquet in the evening."
Although there were as many as seven or eight maids who followed Mrs. Nobuko to Kiyomizu Temple today, the only ones who escaped back in the end were Hisamatsu and Inaba, except for "Ayuki" who rushed out all the way—that is, Liu Quan. .
Fujishi shared a ride with a guard on the way to escape, but the legs of the horses they sat on were chopped and injured by the chasing Miyoshi family members, and they fell off the horses. It was scattered all over without knowing where to go, and there was no time to find it in a hurry.
In fact, the "Axue" that Liu Quan pretended to be was not the maid's room near the imperial platform, but just the kind of low-level maid who was responsible for serving tea and water, holding a chessboard and talking to relieve boredom.In addition, she performed extremely bravely outside Qingshui Temple today, protecting Mrs. Xinzi from the catastrophe for the time being, so when she returned to Erjo Castle, after hearing the general's order, Mrs. Xinzi ordered Liu Quan to "go wash and rest, and go to the hospital in the evening." Just come to the banquet."
Liu Quan did not greet Mrs. Xinzi again.After all, after the banquet in the evening, it is the highlight—the change of Yonglu. Looking at the posture of the group of people in Kiyomizu Temple today, one can almost infer that it is impossible for the time-traveling army to do nothing; then tonight there may be a She wanted to stay completely out of the unexpected fierce battle, but it was probably impossible for her to do so.Anyway, after the investigation is over, she has to get out of the way. If she is hacked to death by the thieves here now, she will really get a box lunch!
In order to be able to win the fierce battle tonight, Liu Quan decided that he must take a good rest under the pressure of the siege in the afternoon and regain blood and mana.
But when she walked near the house where the maid lived, she met the Great Prajna Changguang wandering there.
He was under a huge pine tree, apparently waiting for her.He lowered his head slightly, pacing back and forth under the tree, with his left hand on the hilt of the body knife at his waist, and his right hand touching his chin, with a pensive look on his face; the sun shines through the crown of the tree above his head, Straight strands were projected down and landed on his face and body, making his long silver-gray hair look like smooth satin reflecting some kind of bright light.
Liu Quan saw him from a distance.After going through a lot of hard work and galloping, although she only got a short respite, when she saw someone who was familiar with him and could be completely trusted, she couldn't help but feel a surge of pain in her chest. Excitement.
"Mr. Changguang!" she shouted, quickening her pace and trotting towards him.
Daprajna Changguang raised his head upon hearing the sound, and caught her figure in an instant.His long, narrow and painted phoenix eyes raised slightly, and when she ran in front of him, he smiled and said, "Oh, you're finally back, this time I've really been waiting for you."
Liu Quan: "..."
She has only been out for half a day, what kind of long-staying welcome lines are being used at this time!
The excitement and emotions that had just surged in her chest disappeared in an instant, and she gave him a dumbfounded look, thinking that it didn't matter at all whether there was a general's eyeliner in Ertiao City at this time, so she didn't bother to go any further. Putting down some silence spells, he straightforwardly described what happened at Kiyomizu Temple today to Da Prajna Changguang concisely.
Sure enough, Da Prajna Changguang also fell into deep thought after listening to it.
"Before I came here, I have asked some of the guards who came back." He said, "They are guarding the Lord Gongfang, and the things they encountered are similar to yours... The number of members of the Miyoshi family is unexpectedly large. They It took a lot of damage to break out. It seems—”
Perhaps noticing that she hadn't used any spells to muffle their voices before speaking, he paused.
Liu Quan gave a hum, and replied: "Maybe it's really... the hands and feet of those fallen guys. So the situation at night will not be too good... My limited strength must be used in the right place. Places, spells and so on. Anyway..."
She didn't go on.Yet they both knew exactly what she was going to say.
Now mind the ambiguities in what they say—keywords like "fallen guy" or "spell"—are meaningless.
It is impossible for the general to see the sun tomorrow.Tonight is the change of Yonglu, the last battle of his life.
Liu Quan lowered his gaze.In this small courtyard, there was only the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the treetops for a while.
After an unknown amount of time, Daprajna Changguang sighed deeply.
"You...be careful." He whispered, "Where are your...brothers?"
Sure enough, Yao Yan and Wu Hu Tui stumbled and called her "sister" as soon as they came up, and it was Da Prajna Changguang who taught them in secret.
After they entered Ertiao City, Liu Quan knew that Da Prajna Changguang had his own way to communicate with the two little daggers who stayed in the inn outside.Maybe they rushed to support her outside Qingshui Temple today, and even managed to find a few horses to bring to her, and Da Prajna Changguang notified them in advance.
It has to be said that under the current dangerous environment——in this kind of situation where the leisurely welfare task of [Free Earning Experience Investigation and Health Care] that was agreed in advance suddenly turned into a deathmatch, Da Prajna Changguang can behave so well Reliable, more or less made Liu Quan feel a burst of comfort - and peace of mind.
The corners of her eyes curved slightly.
"It was you who taught them to call me sister? You were so thoughtful. You didn't show any flaws in front of the Imperial Palace." She praised the foresight of Daprajna Changguang.
Daprajna Changguang smiled.
"Well, have you finally felt my reliability?" He said half-jokingly, looked up and down at her who was described as quite embarrassed (?) after the fierce battle, and shook his head slightly, as if her appearance was really good. He couldn't bear to watch it any longer.
"I'll go and see the situation ahead first, you can take a good rest in the afternoon." He said in a considerate (?) way, "Don't worry, leave other things to me to protect."
Liu Quan: "..."
Really... so good at talking.Talking so considerately and nicely, is it also a faction skill of the Longboat faction?
Although thinking about it carefully, Da Prajna Changguang's words are actually similar to his fixed lines, but his lines are so eloquent, it's a bit too much——
Liu Quan forcibly cut off the OS in his heart, nodded towards Daprajna Changguang, and said, "So, please. I brought back Ya... Yakunosuke and... Goro's body sword. Tonight Just call them out."
Daprajna Changguang seemed a little surprised.
"Yakunosuke?! Goro?!" He repeated the two names in disbelief, then suddenly grinned, and then he raised his head and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha……"
Liu Quan was a little out of breath.
"……what's so funny!"
Daprajna Changguang barely suppressed that smile.There was still a bright light in the long and narrow phoenix eyes painted with vermilion, just staring at her like that.
"No, I just think... your... 'brothers' have... great names." He replied intermittently, obviously still struggling with that weird smile.
Liu Quan was so angry that he leaned forward and lowered his voice: "Then why should they call Yaoyan and Wuhutui directly! Whose child would be called such a special name!"
Because she didn't want to waste her magic power to cast the silencing spell, she had to get closer to him and lowered her voice to speak. This sudden approach made Da Prajna Changguang look a little surprised.There was some light in those long and narrow phoenix eyes, and then the smile in his eyes appeared again, but this time there was no funny element, and it seemed a little gentle.
"No," he said, "you're very thoughtful. I thought you'd relax a little after so many days of mental tension... It seems that you don't need to worry about you."
He lowered his eyes and looked at her with a smile.
"You're coping well," he said softly.
Liu Quan:! ! !
What time is this still teasing! !It is tolerable or unbearable! !
She couldn't help but gave him a huge white eye, then turned and walked towards the maid's room.
"I hope you can be so calm tonight, Mr. Changguang!"
……
When Liu Quan woke up, he found that it was already dusk outside the window.
Speaking of which, she really just took a small nap without being disturbed by anyone... Has the Miyoshi family who surrounded Erjo Castle with water have not yet formally launched a general attack on Erjo Castle?
Ah, I don’t know if they want to create some heavy psychological pressure on the trapped people in the city before launching the general offensive, so that the people in the city will surrender as soon as they fight, or because they, the ancients, have to have a little ritual in everything they do. feel.
Liu Quan walked quickly to the Honmaru Palace ahead.
In fact, this is not the Nijo Castle known to later generations.That Nijo Castle - the place where Liu Quan had patrolled outside the gate at night when the general was in Luo when he was a member of the newly selected team - was actually built only after the Tokugawa family established the shogunate.Although the name here is also called "Nijo Castle", the official name should be "Kyoto Kanjieyukoji Imperial Palace", which is located between Erjo Road and Kanjieyukoji.
Of course, the Ninomaru Palace, which is praised by later generations, has not been built here at all.It is the Honmaru Palace, which is also much smaller.However, there is still a splendid and spacious room - I heard that the general has ordered that tonight's banquet will be held here.
When Liu Quan arrived at the entrance of Daguangjian, he took a look around and found that the room was almost furnished—all the lights were lit, and the exquisite table cases, furnishings, wine and food were all set up, as if it was a feast for the eyes. It was the same as countless night banquets during the period.
Liu Quan found that Mrs. Nobuko had arrived, and several of her maids—including Hisamatsu and Inaba who fled back from Kiyomizu Temple today, and the few low-level maids who stayed in Nijo Castle without accompanying them, so they survived—also here.Mrs. Xinzi even wore very gorgeous clothes. The outermost single dress was thin red plum color, with spring cherry blossoms painted on it.
Liu Quan lowered his head and looked at his clothes - as a maid, it can be said to be very rude, she was wearing a light Su Fang colored sleeve, with a simple rattan pattern painted on the lower corner of the hem.
To be honest, she also has her own intentions in choosing to wear small sleeves - she can't just wear the priestess costume to the general's night banquet, even though the priestess costume is more suitable for battle, she can't just wear it outside so brightly , as if telling everyone, "Yes, I deliberately dressed like this and waited for those thieves to break into the Nijo Imperial Palace tonight."
Therefore, she put on a simple attire similar to a priestess's attire—the iris-colored blouse was cut short by her, and the hem was tucked into the purple hakama waist—outside, she put on a light-colored sleeve, and planned to do it once things happened. If there is a change, immediately take off the small sleeve and face the battle with a more convenient attire.
Of course, this plan cannot be told to others.Fortunately, no one in the Nijo Imperial Palace at this moment would mind such a trivial matter as a maid wearing too plain clothes.
Liu Quan saw the General—tonight's protagonist Ashikaga Yoshiki—wearing a body ball, striding in from the door on the other side.
The author has something to say:
February 4:
Note: The "Douwan" worn by Ashikaga Yoshiki is a style of armor w
The light Su Fang color that the girl wears is probably a light maroon color.Calamus color is similar to a bit dark lotus color.
It's all purple anyway.
The last few words of Ban Meow, "I'll go and see the situation in front of me first" is the use of the line to search for the enemy, and "Leave it to me to protect" is the line when the team is formed.
Anyway, it's very cool hhh
