Chapter XVI Appointments
"Lord Tianquan, there is news of Hui. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" The Feather Coat, a member of the clan reported to Tianquan. "Oh? Where is he now? Tianquan opened his eyes and asked.
"He's in the Fire Nation Daimyo Mansion now!" The person who reported said with a strange look: "It seems to be ...... He also became a samurai. In addition, someone in the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire is investigating Hui's background......"
After listening to this, Tianquan pondered for a while, and said, "I know, tell you the news, you don't have to worry about it from the Daimyo's Mansion, go ahead." After saying that, he closed his eyes.
"Yes...... Tensen-sama...... One more thing, someone is missing again, we sent people to search the surroundings, but nothing was found......" the man said cautiously.
After a moment of silence, Tianquan spat out a few words......
"Got it." "Is that really okay?" Hui stood stiffly in the middle of the crowd, accepting Ito's canonization, the small ceremony was made vigorous by Ito and others, surrounded by nobles watching the ceremony, but Hui was almost not allowed to march in the streets.
"Mr. Hui is really young!" "Such an achievement at such a young age!" There was a congratulatory voice, which seemed to be the truth anyway.
At the end of the ceremony, Ito dressed in solemn attire and recited some prayers, then took a thick notebook from the acolyte's hand, picked up the pen, and asked according to the predetermined steps, "Do you have any objections to giving the name of Hae-robi Samurai today?" ”
"No, no ......" "It is a matter of course that Mr. Teru became a samurai!" Everyone shook their heads and said they had no opinion. Ito nodded, and prepared to write Hui's name......
"I have an opinion!" A voice came out of nowhere.
Hui suddenly wondered a little, how to do it like a movie, every critical moment, when the villain was about to do something, a righteous and awe-inspiring protagonist jumped out and shouted "Slow!" "Keep people under the knife!" "Stop Lao Tzu" or something like that, and then beat him up and kill the villain directly. The others also hurriedly looked for the source of the voice, but they received Ito's greeting in advance, and knew that the symbolism of Hui's canonization was the real goal, so everyone came to cheer today, hello, hello, hello, everyone. At this time, making trouble will sweep the face of the daimyo, and you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around.
But when everyone found out about the owner of the voice, they suddenly showed a helpless look, and the corners of Ito's eyebrows jumped......
"I have an opinion!" A child separated from the crowd, stood up, pointed at Hui menacingly, and said, "I oppose him becoming a samurai!" I'm against it! "This kid is Ito's youngest son, Akika's younger brother, and the future Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
Ito ignored his words and whispered to the attendant, "Take His Highness Karasuma away." "Yes, Your Majesty Daimyo," the attendant walked over, picked up Karasuma, and walked out of the venue amid the noise of Karasuma. And all the people did not squint, as if they did not see. Ito didn't ask anymore, and directly wrote down Hui's name with a few strokes. At this point, it is already a sure thing that Hui will become a samurai. Then he handed a daimyo's standard sword to Hui, and Kaguya also took the sword with a serious face, in fact, he smiled in his heart.
"Ahem, 564 years in the Land of Fire, me! Sao Ito, the eleventh daimyo of the Land of Fire, hereby bestows the name of the samurai of the Land of Fire with the sword in his hand, and hopes that you will carry forward the spirit of the samurai with the sword in your hand and promote the prestige of the country of fire." Hui bowed.
After the ceremony was completed, Ito also left, and some of the nobles present came up to congratulate them briefly, while others turned around and went home, and after a while, the originally lively hall became deserted. Hui didn't care, he went to report to the officials of the Daimyo's Mansion to see what kind of position he was assigned to, not to be an official who was assigned to Bi Ma Wen like Sun Wukong.
"What?" Hui yelled a little surprised, "This is the position you gave me?" ”
"That's right, this is an order sent by His Royal Highness the Prince personally." The official on the other side replied with a smile.
"You're not kidding? Or is the name wrong? "Hui is a little crazy, what is this appointment? Leader of the samurai of the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire! Command all the samurai of the Daimyo Mansion of the Land of Fire! Do you want to exaggerate that? Does this make me so promoted in the future? As soon as he became a samurai, he achieved the position of the head of the samurai of the Daimyo's Mansion, and this samurai deserved to be earth-shattering.
"That's right, Commander Hui, that's how His Majesty the Daimyo arranged it. This is your token, please keep it, and you have already been given a place to live, please pack up and move in. The official said respectfully. Confused, Hui had no choice but to leave and go find his own house.
"I must be dreaming today", Hui's face stiffened and his mouth trembled. On the way here, every time he asked the maids or guards in the palace for directions, when he heard Hui ask about the house led by the samurai, everyone's eyes suddenly turned weird, and then he hurriedly left like a ghost with a few words to point out the direction, which made Hui feel a kind of creepiness, and now when he saw his house, Hui suddenly understood a little......
"What about the beautiful house? What about the magnificence? Hui looked distracted, the house in front of him was big enough, but it was a little miserable, it was definitely uninhabited and no one cleaned it all year round, pushed the door open, a puff of dust rushed in, Hui hurriedly covered his mouth and nose, and looked at the decoration in the house.
Inside the house, the ground is a piece of dust, the furniture in the house is quite complete, but it is too dirty, and the corners of the house are also covered with cobwebs, saying that it has not lived for a year, and there is a damp musty smell everywhere. Hui withdrew with a look of disgust. "No, we have to find someone to change places!"
Hui was full of resentment and hurriedly ran back, added fuel and vinegar to explain the situation of the house, and then said to the official with a serious face: "This house is uninhabitable, I ask to change the residence!" ”
"Not at the moment, Lord Hui, you are the samurai commander appointed by His Majesty the Daimyo, according to the decree of the Daimyo Mansion, each official has his own allocation room, and he cannot change it at will, if the Hui Commander insists on changing, he can apply to the Daimyo, and he has no right to accept it." The chubby official said with a harmless smile.
Hui reluctantly turned around and went back.
"Hey...... Looks like I'll have to clean it myself...... I don't know if I'll be able to finish it today......" Hui stood in the dusty living room, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to work.
Peng! The door was kicked open! The door of the house, which had been in disrepair for many years, slammed into the wall, bounced back hard, and then fell directly to the ground. "Hey! Gremlin! Are you the new samurai commander of the Daimyo's Mansion? What's it called? "A couple of fierce-looking samurai walked in." If you don't want to be beaten, get out of here! Then go and ask the daimyo to resign yourself! Samurai is in charge of this position, it's not something you kid can do! A middle-aged samurai stepped forward and said fiercely.
"Oh?" Hearing this, Hui looked at them back and forth a few times, and said, "What if I have to live here?" ”
"Hahahaha!" The samurai on the opposite side let out a laugh, and the leader's expression changed, and he sneered: "Don't think that it's okay if you're the commander appointed by the daimyo, we samurai have the qualifications to challenge the opponent!" Even if we hurt your daimyo at that time, we won't say anything, after all, you're just a tool for the daimyo to appease the people! ”
Hui nodded thoughtfully: "I see...... That is to say, the Daimyo Mansion did not prohibit samurai fights? It's just that I'm sending a few cleaners, you guys are here just in time, just stay here and help me work! Don't worry, I'll pay you your salary. ”
The samurai were immediately enraged, shouted "hateful imps", drew their swords and rushed towards Hui. Suddenly, the room was full of chickens and dogs......
