In the early morning, the first ray of sunlight shone into Sibo's mansion, but it could not dispel the gloom in the mansion.
The dying Yukino Takada was sent back to the mansion by Miburou and was being rescued indoors. Yang Nai accompanied him inside, Yi Gin stood outside the house all night, and the Shiba girls followed him and stood all night.
Pots of hot water were sent into the room, and then pots of blood were sent out. The doctor who was invited overnight worked hard all night and finally walked out of the room.
She walked to Yiyin who was looking at the courtyard, bowed and said.
"The Great Imperial Palace."
"How are you doing?"
"The injury is temporarily stable, but..."
Yiyin looked back at her and saw that she was about to speak but hesitated, so he said coldly.
"Tell it like it is."
The doctor sighed and said.
"The injury is too severe and the blood loss is too much. I may never wake up. I can still use ginseng soup to hang on to my life for the time being, but as time goes by, I'm afraid...
Even if he could wake up, he was so badly injured that he became a cripple and could no longer hold a sword. "
Yoshigami nodded and said to Naomasa Ii who was serving at the side.
"Reward her with three small gold medals and send her out."
The doctor was stunned for a moment and said subconsciously.
"This is too much."
But Yiyin ignored her and walked straight into the house. The embarrassed doctor stood there, at a loss.
Naomasa Ii's eyes were red, he bowed slightly to the doctor and said.
"plz follow me."
The doctor hesitated and bowed in return.
———
Yoshigan walked into the room and saw Yangno gently wiping the cold sweat from Yukino's forehead.
He sat down on the edge of the bed and said.
"You're tired after a long night, go and have a rest."
Yang Nao kept her hands on her hands and whispered in her mouth.
"Yukiono has been a coward since she was a child. I don't know how she even thought of learning swordsmanship.
She is obviously a silly girl who cries when she sees blood, but she does this kind of thing again and again.
The last time was in Owari, and this time in Kyoto, the injuries were more serious each time. "
She said, tears falling down her cheeks.
Yiyin couldn't bear it, held her hand that was changing the water, and whispered.
"Don't be like this. Yukino doesn't want to see you like this. If you collapse from exhaustion, what will Yukino do? Who will take care of her?"
Yang Nai raised his head, his eyes red and swollen after crying all night, looked at Yiyin and cried.
"It's my fault.
Yukino went out to fulfill me. I should have known better. This girl has been possessive since she was a child. How could she not care at all?
She was trying to avoid me, she didn't want me to find out that she was jealous, she was doing it all for me!
Yukino. . It's my sister's fault, it's me who's sorry for you, please don't die! Please, I promise you everything, and I will listen to you from now on. Don’t die!
Don't leave me alone, Yukino, Yukino! "
Yiyin looked at Yangno who was burying his head and crying, and his heart was as sharp as a knife. He shifted his gaze and looked at Yukino, who was pale and unconscious.
Unprecedented fear arose in his heart, the fear that he might lose Yukino forever, and then it turned into a torrential rage, surging out.
He stood up with a cold face, walked out of the room, walked down the steps of the porch, and walked in front of the concubines, who all knelt down.
Yoshigan kicked Yagyu Munomi over with a strong kick and cursed.
"What are you doing for food! Why would someone dare to plan an ambush around my mansion!
What do I need from a piece of trash like you! Or maybe you are in the same group with them! "
Yagyu Munenomi was kicked over by Yoshigan and hit the stone lamp on the side. She was frightened to death when she heard Yoshigan's heart-wrenching words.
She knew clearly that her master was venting his anger, but she didn't dare to defend himself. Ignoring the pain, he crawled back and knelt down, kowtow to apologize.
Yiyin asked coldly when he saw her kowtowing like garlic.
"Akechi Mitsuhide, are you looking after it?"
Yagyu Munenomi quickly answered.
"Hey, Akechi Mitsuhide-sama is under the supervision of my Yagyu group in Tamonyama Castle. He is hiding behind closed doors to reflect on his mistakes and is waiting for the master's disposal."
Yiyin said coldly.
"Send someone to Tawenyama Castle and ask Akechi Mitsuhide to come to Kyoto to meet me. I want to see her! Now!"
Yagyu Munaki fell to the ground to accept the order, turned around and ran out as if running away.
Yiyin walked up to Bai Di San Taifu and said gloomily
"stand up."
Bai Di San Taifu was trembling with fear. As soon as he got up, he was kicked in the stomach and fell into the pool next to him. She climbed up and knelt down, saying guilt repeatedly.
Yiyin sneered.
"Of course you are guilty!
Someone is setting up an ambush near my residence. They are fully equipped with weapons, spears, bows, arrows, and iron cannons. Well done, we are going to fight!
You don’t have any information from the confidentiality team? Can't you notice the slightest sound of wind? good! very good!
It turns out that I haven’t been stabbed to death every day when I go out. I really want to thank everyone for not killing me!
Mr. Baidi San Taifu, you have done a good job! "
Momochi Santafu was complaining in his heart. In the past few days, the Yagyu Group and the Secrecy Group have joined forces to search Kyoto, bent on finding Takada Yukino and Miburou.
Kyoto is so big, and their manpower is simply not enough, so they will focus on one thing and lose the other.
Who would have thought that these shogunate warriors were so bold that they dared to ambush Takada Yukino near Shiba's residence.
The Third Taifu of Baidi did not dare to refute, so he could only imitate Yagyu Munomi and kowtow continuously.
Yiyin cursed.
"I'm not dead yet! Why are you knocking? You're knocking someone to death!"
Check it out for me! Find out everything about this matter for me! If you can’t find out clearly, you don’t have to come back!
roll! Get out of here! "
The Third Taifu of Baidi stood up in embarrassment, saluted, and rushed out. Fujibayashi followed him and left with a salute.
Yiyin looked at the frightened deer in the courtyard and breathed steadily. The concubines behind him were as silent as cicadas, all kneeling.
The sound of bamboo dripping and tapping came again and again, and Yiyin's voice suddenly became sentimental.
"I was confused, thinking that as long as I gave in, many things would be easy to handle.
I was wrong. I am willing to understand others, but who has the heart to understand me?
I wholeheartedly planned for the shogunate, and even if Ashikaga Yoshiaki forced me to remarry, I would not want to break up with her.
It's my fault, how could I be so stupid as to be so merciful to these bastards. They want to kill my Yukino, my Yukino! It was me who harmed Yukino, it was me who harmed her! "
The concubines lowered their heads and knelt on the ground, their hair standing on end. Because they heard crying, Ootaishuo was actually crying. Kamousojigo knelt at the front, feeling his scalp numb.
"Shixiang."
"Hi!"
Yiyin suddenly called her, telling her to shake her head and quickly lie down on the ground to stand by.
"Where are the swordsmen who rescued Yukino? Miburou and the others, where are they?"
"They are waiting for your disposal in the side room, that...
Many of them were injured, so I took it upon myself to deliver some food and medicine to them, and asked the Oitai to punish them! "
Kamojigo closed his eyes, waiting for Yoshiyin's thunderous wrath.
Yiyin just glanced at her and walked past her.
"Take me to them, now!"
———
In the side room, Isamu Kondo looked exhausted after waiting all night.
She didn't know whether what she did was right or wrong. This is a gamble, and the stakes are all their lives.
Before Takada Yukino returned to Shiba's residence yesterday, he arranged for them to patrol the night as usual to search for traces of the shogunate's security team.
It was this arrangement that allowed them to discover a clue and save Takada Yukino's life at the critical moment.
But Yukino Takada was too seriously injured, and no one was sure whether she would survive.
But Isamu Kondo was unwilling to give in. She killed her comrades who refused to follow them to Kyoto. So many comrades died in Kyoto. What did they want?
They want to make a name for themselves! They want to escape from their humble future! They want to change their destiny!
If Takada Yukino dies, if she dies. . How will the Shiba family deal with the Mibu wolf? What would he think of that wise and powerful Otaisuo? How to do it?
neither knows.
Isamu Kondo brought here all the survivors of the Mizui Wolf. They were already meat on the chopping board and could only wait for the Odaisho's decision.
Okita Souji handed her a cup.
"Kondo-hime, drink some water."
Kondo Isamu smiled at her, took the cup but did not drink it, and asked Hijikata Toshizo in a deep voice.
"Hijikata-hime, no one has been here all night. Did I do something wrong?"
Hijikata Toshizo laughed and said.
"Kondo-hime, we are just weeds, isn't it normal for no one to care about us?
You have the courage to bring us to Kyoto. No matter whether you succeed or fail in the end, I respect you.
I don’t want to face the dark future alone. I am willing to die in Kyoto with you. At least, we have tried hard to change our destiny.
Kondo-hime, don't feel guilty, I'm grateful to you because you gave me hope. You know what that suffocating feeling of despair feels like. "
Kondo Isamu listened to Hijikata Tobizo's sincere words, looked at Okita Souji's concerned eyes, and looked around at the Mibu wolves who were smiling at her. She suddenly felt a little moist in her eyes and started laughing.
When the atmosphere was getting thicker, there was suddenly the sound of messy footsteps outside, which sounded like a lot of people.
Everyone's expressions froze. Kondo Isamu looked at Lamen calmly, ready to face the fate he chose.
As soon as the sliding door opened, Shiba and others filed in, occupying the four corners of the room, and watched the Mibu wolves in the room warily.
Then, a handsome nobleman walked in. He glanced at the miserable remnants of the Mibu wolf party and walked towards the main seat.
The Mibu wolves gave way one after another and knelt down to kowtow. Kondo Isamu's heart was filled with excitement.
A man as handsome as a god, an unparalleled young man with unrivaled splendor, there is only one person in the world! Spo Yiyin! he came! He came to see us in person!
Yiyin sat on the main seat and counted the heads.
"Eleven...are these the only ones left?"
Isamu Kondo stepped forward and bowed.
"The leader of the Mibu Wolf, Isamu Kondo, has met the Odaisho, and all of us are here."
Yiyin glanced at her and said.
"Isamu Kondo."
"Hi!"
"Hijikata Toshizo."
"Hi!"
"Okita Souji."
"Hi!"
Yiyin called a name and everyone kowtowed. He looked at the scarred wolves and said.
"Did you fight to save Yukino last night?"
Kondo Isamu did not dare to raise his head and whispered.
"It was our failure in doing things that caused Takada-sama to be seriously injured. May I ask the Odaisho, Takada-sama, is she okay?"
This Kondo Isamu is very good at talking, Yiyin nodded and said.
"You saved Yukino, I, Shiba Yigin, thank you, I owe you a favor.
Tell me, what do you want? I will fulfill your request. "
Kondo Isamu's breathing became heavy, and he secretly glanced at Hijikata Toshizo, who looked straight back at her.
Steadying her mind, Kondo Isamu quickly calmed down and she answered.
"Master Takada was ambushed by the thieves, and we are all filled with indignation!
I sincerely ask the Odai for permission to allow us to pursue the culprits and avenge Lord Takada! "
Yoshigan took a deep look at Isamu Kondo. Regardless of whether her words came from her sincerity or not, this person was indeed good enough to impress Yoshigan.
Every word she said made Yiyin feel very comfortable, useful, and moved. She was an extraordinary character.
Yiyin breathed out and his face turned cold.
"Okay! I'll give you this chance! But I have a request!"
Isamu Kondo kowtowed to the ground again and said.
"Please give me orders from the Great Imperial Palace!"
Yiyin gritted his teeth and said.
"Not only the thieves who took action, but also the people behind them, those behind the scenes, kill them all!
I want them dead! I want them all to die! "
Kondo Isamu said calmly.
"The Great Imperial Palace, those...may be extremely noble adults."
Yiyin stood up from the table, walked to Kondo Isamu, and said.
"Keep your head up."
Kondo Isamu raised his head cautiously and looked up at Yoshiyin.
Yiyin asked.
"who I am?"
Kondo Isamu swallowed and said with a trembling voice.
"You are the Great Odaisho."
"who I am!"
"you are.."
Isamu Kondo hesitated to answer, so Yoshigami spoke for her.
"I, Yoshigan Shiba, am the governor of the Shiba family! Ashikaga Military God! The husband of Ashikaga Yoshiteru! The holder of Hachiman Tainiang's white flag!
I am the chosen one! Tell me, is there anyone more noble than me in this world? "
Isamu Kondo bowed deeply.
"No! Daigo Taisho, you are the most noble person in the world!"
Yiyin looked at her coldly and said softly.
"In this case, what noble adults cannot be killed? How can they be more noble than me!"
After finishing speaking, Yi Gin turned around and sat back in the main seat, and said to Kamao Clan.
"bring here!"
Pushengshixiang respectfully stepped forward and offered a knife in both hands.
Yiyin held the handle of the knife, pulled out a piece, and asked.
"Isamu Kondo, do you recognize this knife?"
Kondo Isamu looked carefully, lowered his head and said.
"Going back to the Odaisho, it's the sword of Lord Yukino Takada, Mikazuki Munechika."
Yoshigan glanced at Mikazuki Munechika sadly and returned the sword to its sheath.
"Yes, this is the sword given to Yukino by the previous general, asking Yukino to use it to protect me.
Yukino lived up to her ancestor's trust and tried her best. "
Yoshigage crossed the scabbard, stretched his hand forward, and faced Kondo Isamu.
"Take it."
Kondo Isamu bowed forward and took Mikazuki Munechika with both hands.
Yiyin said coldly.
"Your Majesty punishes traitors, and Heaven punishes the traitors of the country! Although Rensheng Lang is a humble wanderer, he also knows great loyalty and righteousness. I am very relieved!
Kondo Isamu, taught knowledge and practice three hundred stones. When Hijikata was three years old, each of Okita's chief ministers was awarded a hundred koku of knowledge and practice, and the rest became officials in the Shiba family, with a salary of thirty koku.
Isamu Kondo! I'll give you everything you want!
Now, I lend you Mikazuki Munechika, do you know what to do? "
Isamu Kondo was so excited that he was shaking all over. He raised Mikazuki Mune Kon above his head with both hands and said loudly.
"Tianchu!"
The eleven Renshenglangs kowtowed to the ground and shouted loudly.
"Tianchu!"
