Four or five samurai wearing light green feathers walked quickly through the streets.
The one who took the lead was the swordsman who had become famous around Kyoto after only one month in office.
Captain of the Shinsengumi 1st Team, Souji Okita.
Okita Souji frowned, thinking about what Gensaburo Inoue just said to him.
Luslan Medical Center, that place, is a very problematic place in Kyoto, and no one can sway Luslan Medical Center from opening in that location.
That guy from Zuo Village...what was he doing in that place?
Across two streets, Souji Okita looked at this small medical clinic.
"Guard the door and don't let anyone in." Souji Okita gave orders to several of his subordinates with sharp eyes, "Inoue, you go in and clear the place."
"yes."
Several members of the newly formed team took action skillfully.
When passers-by saw the light green Yuori, they also moved away in fear.
Okita Souji didn't say much and walked directly into Luslan Medical Clinic.
Several people who came to see the doctor were sent out by Gensaburo Inoue, and Inoue kindly closed the door.
Okita Souji looked at the young man who was still calm even though he had been approached by the Shinsengumi, with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"You should know what I, Yuori, represent." Souji Okita spoke first.
"I do know." Lu Silan smiled nonchalantly, "But I didn't do anything dangerous."
"I obviously did nothing wrong, why should I be afraid?" Lu Silan looked at the shaken girl with a smile.
"I have information that the samurai who entered Kyoto without reporting have come to you. They just came to inquire." Souji Okita sighed.
It seems that the foreigner was not frightened.
"I know who you want to get information from, Captain Okita... No, Miss Okita."
Lu Silan suddenly thought of a brilliant idea.
Okita Souji frowned.
Ever since she took over as the captain of the Shinsengumi 1st Team, she has always claimed that she is a male, and she has also used a bra wrap to hide it... How did this person know?
"Zuo Cun told me." Lu Silan interrupted her thinking before Souji Okita could finish speaking.
Rather than covering up the truth, it is better to tell the truth.
Anyway... Zuomura really mentioned Miss Okita in front of him many times.
"He, you, me." Souji Okita's thinking was completely disrupted by Lu Silan's words, "What is your relationship?"
"Zuo Cun once saved my life. We are very good friends." Lu Silan smiled funnyly, "We have known each other a long time ago."
Finally, after chatting with Lu Silan for a long time, the captain of the Shinsengumi First Team, Okita Souji, returned to the Shinsengumi's station with a red face.
Lu Silan invisibly resolved a wave of his own crises.
...
Zuo Cun wandered to the vicinity of the palace.
The relationship between Xiaoming and Muren was not compatible, so Muren lived by himself in a separate courtyard.
This year's Mu Ren is only eleven years old, but he is a precocious child prodigy who has his own opinions on many things.
This is also the source of the disagreement between father and son.
Outsiders only know that the two of them don't get along, but they don't know the real reason for the disagreement.
Takaaki only wanted to promote the integration of public and military affairs and make the shogunate the most perfect shield for the imperial court. For this reason, it didn't matter if he lost some ambition and exchanged his little power for safety.
But Mutsuhito's ideas were completely different from Takamei's. In Mutsuhito's thinking, it was better to let the emperor control the rights that he should have and let the emperor rule the country.
Zuocun walked around in circles and saw an opportunity that no one was paying attention to and slipped into an alley of the palace.
Takeshi Ruishan found a way to find the location of the courtyard where Mutsuhito was, and Zuocun's goal was that separate small courtyard.
Mu Ren sat alone in the courtyard.
It is late spring and early summer and the weather is cool.
Mu Ren sat at a stone table and wrote something with a pen.
Suddenly I heard a sound and looked up.
A samurai wearing a black and white haori was sitting on a tree in his courtyard.
when--!
Mu Ren's heart tightened subconsciously.
Zuocun smiled and said hello: "Hello, Your Highness Mu Ren."
Mu Ren looked around and suddenly remembered that he was "isolated" by his father, with only two guards at the door.
"Your Highness, you'd better not call those two guys at the door." Zuomura stared at Mutsuhito intently, "I think you don't want bloodshed in the palace."
Just as Mu Ren was about to shout, he heard Zuocun's words and subconsciously closed his mouth.
Zuocun smiled, jumped down from the tree, and landed in front of Mu Ren.
"Who are you and what is the purpose of coming here?" Mu Ren did not step back, but just looked at Zuocun.
To be able to sneak into the depths of the palace quietly and without any trace of life, one's strength is definitely not simple.
It is easy for such a person to kill himself. The result of retreating or not will not change. Instead of retreating to weaken his will and momentum, it is better to remain motionless.
Zuo Cun showed an appreciative look.
"I heard that Crown Prince Mu Ren is a talented young man who knows everything about the world at a young age. I just came to see him."
Mu Ren looked at the two knives on Zuo Cun's waist.
The scabbard of the sword is half black and half white, and the scabbard of the wakizashi is pure cyan.
"Are you Yuuki Zamura Anno? The demon-slayer samurai?" Mutsuhito asked.
Zuo Cun nodded. He had no intention of hiding his identity.
"Why did you come to me? I don't have any monsters here for you to kill." Mu Ren's eyes were burning.
He is slight in stature but has a tough attitude.
"I just want to know what the future Emperor's views and insights are on the current situation in this country, that's all."
"If you really want to get some valuable opinions, you should ask my father instead of coming here to ask me!" Mutsuhito felt a little angry that Zuocun was humiliating him.
Zuo Cun smiled and shook his head.
"His Majesty Xiaoming's opinion is known to everyone, so there is no need for me to ask."
"What I want to know is what you think."
"Your father will not sit in that position forever, Your Highness Mutsuhito."
"Sooner or later, you will ascend the throne and become the emperor."
Zuocun asked word by word.
"What I want to know is your opinion."
Mu Ren was stunned.
"Why are you asking for my opinion? Just because I will ascend the throne in the future?" Mutsuhito sighed, "The Emperor, to put it bluntly, is just a glamorous mascot. Does the Emperor's opinion really matter?"
"Whether it's important or not, it doesn't matter if you say it now."
"The incompetence of the shogunate is not only known to everyone, but to the whole world. Your Highness will not be unaware of this." Samura helped Mutsuhito analyze, "You have never had any idea...ever Did you get anything back from Tokugawa Iemo?"
