"Shameless, just a ***..." Someone was so angry that he slammed the table.
Some people looked at the man with suspicion, "You guys didn't make this up, did you?"
"Believe it or not." The man said it quickly, and he didn't care whether others believed it or not. In fact, he heard it from others, and some of it was made up by his own imagination. But he didn't care. No one could point out where he was wrong anyway. As long as he insisted that it was the case, who could do anything to him?
"...It just sounds too fake. One woman can handle a dozen people? This is simply impossible."
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe it's impossible for people from the Ming Dynasty, but I'm not from the Ming Dynasty..."
The things between men and women are always the most exciting. Some people rationally think that the man is talking nonsense, but there are also people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic and pursue him.
Anyway, in the end, isn’t it all Tu Yile? Who can take it seriously?
"But I have also heard that the Japanese princess often holds poetry gatherings or invites people to have banquets. If there is no such thing, what do you think she is in such a hurry for? Right? Hahaha... ..."
As soon as these words came out, they were immediately recognized by many people. Anyway, it is not illegal to echo a sentence, but this sentence greatly meets their expectations, "Extremely, extremely..."
"I heard that Mr. Chen Shuchen is also invited?"
"Bah! I didn't expect to look sanctimonious, but secretly become a Japanese girl's guest. It's so shameless!"
"Yes, shameless, simply shameless!"
No one knows whether he is shameless or not. What everyone is probably thinking more about is, "Why isn't this person me?"
When they thought of the stunning beauty of the Japanese princess, everyone showed greedy looks.
The so-called since you can't get it, then destroy her.
In just a few days, the rosy news about the Japanese princess became more and more outrageous. Later, it was no longer a matter of the Japanese princess holding poetry gatherings and banquets, but becoming a matter of the Japanese princess serving people with her own body to win over the courtiers with evil intentions.
...
In Yuci's house, Xiaosong Lingzi was dressed in plain white Ming Dynasty lady's clothing. Standing in front of the table, he has a graceful appearance. A ray of sunlight shone through the window onto the side of her face, and the fine fuzz on her face seemed to cast a hazy glow on her, making her even more otherworldly.
"Are you ready for tomorrow's banquet?" Komatsu Reiko asked with a smile while flipping through the messages she had received from relevant sources in the past few days.
These days, she is extremely beautiful. Throwing in huge amounts of money, it immediately attracted many scholars and officials. Through conversations with them, Komatsu Reiko felt that even without relying on Han Du, she could easily get Daming to mediate.
Hosokawa Mochiyuki has also been very happy during this time. He nodded with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Master. My subordinates went to inform you in person, and also met all the adults. They personally promised to come to the banquet. At the same time, Mr. Chen After the introduction, my subordinate also met Mr. Qi, Minister of War, and Mr. Qi also promised to come back for the banquet."
"That's good." Komatsu Reiko felt relieved, "This is the most critical time for us to come to the Ming Dynasty. As long as Qi Tai, Minister of War, can persuade the Ming Emperor to go out and mediate, then the matter will be settled."
"Yes." Hosokawa Mochizuki sighed happily: "Although Han Du is in a high and powerful position, he can't cover the sky with one hand. Qitai is his opponent, even if he is disgusting with Han Du, he will not Don’t hesitate to help us. He is the Minister of War. Even if he cannot persuade the Ming Emperor to mediate, as long as the Ming Navy can be withdrawn, the Japanese country can take a breather and recover."
Komatsu Reiko also thinks like this, so he pays special attention to Qitai. Then he reminded: "Go and carefully check the dishes you will need for tomorrow's banquet. Make sure everything is perfect and leave a good impression on Qitai!"
"Yes, my subordinate, go right away." Noriyuki Hosokawa immediately nodded and bowed down.
After Hosokawa Noriyuki went out, Komatsu Reiko raised her head and looked towards
He glanced in the direction of Zhenguo Duke's Mansion. He said coldly: "Handu, if you want to trap Japan to death, how can you help me? I was really stupid at the beginning, and I even thought of asking you for help. Just wait, I can solve it without your help." The siege of Japan. Haha, who gave you so many enemies and still holds a high position? Hahaha..."
A horrifying laughter came from the house, causing the maids guarding around the house to suddenly feel a chill all over their bodies.
The next day, Komatsu Lingzi changed into a lady's dress early in the mansion and sat quietly in the lobby waiting. She found that compared to the most beautiful uniforms in her eyes, the most attractive thing for officials of the Ming Dynasty was the ladies' clothes of the Ming Dynasty.
But seeing that the time was approaching, no one came yet.
Komatsu Reiko couldn't help but feel tense, then relaxed and comforted herself: "It doesn't matter, maybe it's just a little delayed, just wait a little longer."
As time passed by, Komatsu Reiko became more and more anxious.
When the appointed time arrived, there was still no sign of anyone. Komatsu Reiko couldn't sit still anymore and shouted sharply: "Hosokawa Mochiyuki!"
"My subordinate is here..." Hosokawa Noriyuki was no longer as happy as yesterday. He was curled up in fear. He didn't know what was going on.
Just now, Noriyuki Hosokawa noticed something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out. To make sure nothing went wrong, he even met each one in person and personally promised that he would definitely come... Why didn't anyone come now?
"What on earth is going on?" Komatsu Reiko suddenly waved her hand angrily, knocking over the dishes in front of her and breaking them to the ground.
Hosokawa Mochiyuki immediately raised his head, and in just a few breaths, a large amount of cold sweat broke out on his originally clean forehead. "Master, something must have happened. Please give me some time to go and investigate."
"Go quickly!" Komatsu Reiko glared.
"Yes." Hosokawa Mochizuki hurriedly bowed his back and left the lobby as if he had been granted amnesty.
After Hosokawa Mokiyuki left, Komatsu Reiko grabbed another bowl and threw it to the ground, venting the anger in her heart.
Hosokawa Noriyuki directly found the housekeeper at Qitai's house, but even when he didn't know him yesterday, he was still willing to inform him. When I saw him today, I didn't even give him a chance to speak, so I hurriedly avoided him. Even when he forced himself to ask, the guards stopped him and refused to give him any chance.
After encountering disappointment at the gate of Qitai Mansion, Hosokawa Mochizuki left unwillingly and went to find other officials. Contrary to the welcome he received yesterday, most officials were reluctant to see him today. He didn't know why there were such huge changes after just one night.
I was walking down the road dejectedly, and when I passed by a wine shop, I overheard something.
"...Have you heard that the Japanese princess is very hungry..."
After only listening to half of the sentence, a look of anger suddenly appeared in Hosokawa Mochizuki's eyes. If it weren't for Zai Daming here, he would have rushed in without hesitation and would never have left those people in the wine shop alive.
If you dare to slander a noble lady like your master, even those who hear it will die!
However, in order to find out what was going on, Hosokawa walked into the wine shop without saying a word and pointed twice casually.
The waiter saw the guest and was about to ask him what he wanted to eat when he saw the other person pointing at the wine and the signboard.
The waiter immediately understood and said with a smile: "My lord, please take a seat first. The food and drinks will be here soon."
After saying that, he enthusiastically led Hosokawa Noriyuki to an empty table and sat down.
After listening for a moment, Hosokawa Noriyuki understood why none of the officials who promised him to come to the banquet yesterday came today.
After finding the reason, Hosokawa Mokiyuki could no longer sit still. After throwing down a piece of treasure money, he stood up and left.
The waiter came out with a tray with a bottle of wine and two plates of dishes.
"Sir, the food and drinks are here..."
When the waiter raised his head, he realized that there was no one at the table. "Huh? This guest officer
Woolen cloth? "
The people next to me looked at each other. Everyone was eating just now and didn't pay much attention to the people next to them.
The waiter's expression changed. If this man really left, who would he sell his food and wine to? If he couldn't find anyone, he might have to bite the bullet and buy the food and wine in the end.
After walking a few steps quickly to the table, the waiter breathed a sigh of relief when he saw an eye-catching treasure note quietly placed on it.
Picking up the treasure note, the waiter muttered: "I asked for food and drinks and then left without eating. What a weirdo... Also, I left without even asking for change..."
...
"Master!" Hosokawa Mochiyuki ran all the way to the house and went straight to Komatsu Reiko.
Komatsu Reiko's expression was cold, as if her expression had never changed since Hosokawa Noriyuki left just now.
Hearing this, Reiko Komatsu slowly turned his head to look at Hosokawa Mochiyuki, and asked in a cold voice: "Have you investigated clearly now?"
How long did Hosokawa Moyukizai leave? If it could be investigated clearly in such a simple way, it wouldn't have made her feel aggrieved for so long.
Komatsu Reiko thought that Hosokawa Mochizuki did not investigate carefully, so she was rude to him. Although Hosokawa Noriyuki has been with her for many years, if he dares to deceive her, she will not hesitate to execute him.
Hosokawa Noriyuki nodded solemnly, and then told the story one by one about the encounters he received at various officials' houses, as well as the news he heard slandering her in the wine shop.
Finally, Noriyuki Hosokawa reminded: "Master, someone is deliberately slandering us. I'm afraid those officials also chose to avoid it after hearing the news."
A trace of resentment flashed in Komatsu Reiko's eyes, and she suddenly looked at Hosokawa Mokiyuki and asked, "Do you know who is spreading rumors?"
"My subordinates rushed back to report to the master before they had time to investigate."
"Then go and find him. I'll dig three feet into the ground to find this person!" Xiaosong Lingzi said angrily with veins popping out on his forehead.
"Subordinate, follow your orders!"
