"Your Highness! Yes! "Just when Yu Qiuping and Imagawa Kaede were about to snuggle up in the corridor, Ryuko, who had finished packing his things, happened to come over, but suddenly bumped into this shy picture, and suddenly lowered his head with a red face.

"Huh? Dragon! Seeing this, Imagawa Kaede hurriedly jumped up from Yu Qiuping, and pulled up Yu Qiuping, who was so immortal, "What's the matter?" ”

"That's right, ma'am." As soon as Ryuko raised his head, he saw the crimson faces and messy clothes of Yu Qiuhei and Imagawa Kaede, so he had to bow his head again in embarrassment, "Maeda-sama asks to see?" ”

"Which Maeda-sama?" Yu Qiuping casually sorted out his clothes and walked towards the living room on the second floor, "My eldest brother is still that guy from Keiji?" ”

"It's the Lijia-sama." Ryuko nodded and pointed in the direction of the city gate, "It seems that you are in a hurry, rushing over with torches." ”

"Huh?" Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment, and unconsciously quickened his pace, "What are you doing in such a hurry?" ”

·

When Yu Qiuping came to the living room on the second floor, he found that Maeda Toshiya was sitting on the main seat, unceremoniously eating a lot. Chicken thighs, beef, and tofu were stuffed into my mouth desperately, and I didn't stop eating until my mouth was full of oil.

"I said, big brother, you haven't eaten for a few days?" Yu Qiuping was amused by his appearance all of a sudden, and the nervousness that he had just mentioned just now suddenly disappeared, "It's even more ugly to eat than that kid who is new and bright!" ”

"Don't hide it from you, kid," Maeda Toshiya chewed the food in his mouth while quickly glancing at Yu Qiuping, "Your eldest brother and I haven't eaten for a day!" ”

"Why did you go to you? Don't eat all day? Yu Qiuping asked in surprise, and at the same time handed him a glass of water that was placed on the side.

Maeda Toshiya craned his neck and drank a few sips, gasping for breath, and then complained loudly and dissatisfiedly: "It's all because the lord doesn't know what kind of nervous disease he has, and he must notify all the lords within today, and drive out all the stables who are on duty in the castle tower, saying that if you can't see anyone in charge of informing tomorrow night, you will have to carry straw sandals for a month!" I'm fine, that guy Fujihachi was sent to inform His Highness Mori and the monkey over there that Mino is gone, and I guess I won't be able to sleep today! ”

"Oh my God!" Yu Qiuping laughed out loud all of a sudden, "That's really miserable!" So, I'm in the far northwest, so I'm your last one. ”

"yes, or else?" Maeda Toshiya glanced at Yu Qiuhei and continued to eat heavily.

"Then why are you in a hurry, it's too late anyway, and you haven't woken me up in the middle of the night." Yu Qiuping simply sat down next to Maeda Toshi's house, picked up another glass of water, and prepared to take a few sips to quench his thirst.

"It's not that I'm afraid that I'll miss the meal if I'm late, I can't rub some big fish and meat here to eat, and I can eat dry food." Maeda Toshiya nibbled on most of the chicken leg and said loudly as it should be.

"Poof! cough cough cough..."Yu Qiuping was choked by his words, and the water in his mouth was choked and sprayed, and he coughed for a long time before he tossed well. Maeda Toshiya unceremoniously stretched out his hand full of oil and water, and slapped it Yu Qiuping's clean clothes a few times.

"Big brother, I didn't see it," Yu Qiuping muttered angrily, "You are quite scheming now, you are different from the simple and upright big brother before!" ”

"Is that not it?" Maeda Toshiya heard Yu Qiuping say this about him, and raised his eyebrows a little proudly, "People have to grow up after all." My family Ah Song also said all day long that I have a tendon, and I will definitely suffer, and let me learn to be smooth and clever every day, which is flattering. ”

"Really?" Yu Qiuping glanced at the table top that had been messed up by Maeda Toshi's family, and then at the water he had sprinkled on the ground and the oil handprints on his clothes, "It seems that you are still learning quite quickly." ”

"Of course, now many old ministers in the family praise the eldest brother that I will be a man." Maeda Toshiya muttered, "By the way, I haven't told you kid about the matter that my lord asked me to inform." ”

"Huh? What's going on? Yu Qiuping was completely relaxed at this time, and asked casually while fiddling with the hem of the clothes in front of him.

"The lord is going to send troops to Nishiminon, and he asks almost all the entire Owari to assemble and cross the Kiso River within half a month. The lord decided that he would personally take charge of Sumamata Castle and direct the invasion of Nishimino. Maeda Toshiya said casually as he picked up the rice in his mouth, "Tomorrow I will ask all the adults to gather at Cheongju Castle to discuss the details of this expedition... Well, maybe it's not a discussion, I guess the lord has already thought of a plan, just to ask everyone to go over and listen to him promulgate it. ”

However, as he spoke, he found that Yu Qiuping, who was still talking to him on the side, suddenly lost his voice. After he swallowed a mouthful of food, he raised his head to look at Yu Qiuping in some surprise, but he was stunned for a moment - he and Yu Qiuping had known each other for so many years, and he had never seen the latter have such an expression.

I saw that Yu Qiuping's breathing was suddenly short, and his hands were clutching the hem of his clothes, trembling spasmodically and continuously, almost tearing a crack in the hem. And he, who was originally with his head down and careless, was now frighteningly hollow in his eyes, staring at his hem motionlessly. And on his somewhat stiff facial features, there is a hint of a somewhat penetrating smile on the corner of his mouth, which is weird and creepy.

"Hey, hey." Maeda Toshiya called twice in a row, but Yu Qiuping still didn't react. He should have been very dissatisfied and annoyed when he was ignored. But at this moment, the intuition in his heart flashed, which made him feel a trace of fear in his heart, who had never been afraid of heaven and earth.

"Hey!" Maeda Toshiie raised his voice boldly and shouted. This shout seemed to wake Yu Qiuping from his dream all at once, and his hands twitched violently, tearing the hem of his clothes at once. He suddenly came back to his senses, suddenly raised his head, and looked at Maeda Lijia with a somewhat unfocused gaze, while he gasped for air.

"Hey, are you kid stunned? What did you do just now? Maeda Toshiya was also frightened by Yu Qiuping's reaction, and pushed the water cup in front of him in front of Yu Qiuping, "Hurry up and drink some water to suppress the shock." ”

Yu Qiuping hurriedly took the cup, as if grasping at a life-saving straw. He craned his neck and poured several mouthfuls of water, the cold spring water poured into his throat and flowed straight into his chest and abdomen, as if to silence the whole person at once.

But his heart was beating so much that his eardrums ached slightly.

My chance for revenge... It's right in front of you.

A godsend.

·

For a whole night, Yu Qiuping couldn't fall asleep for even a minute, rolling back and forth on the bed. So Imagawa Kaede has always been more able to sleep, and he was not affected by him, but fell asleep early. Yu Qiuping was irritable in his heart, and it seemed that only when he looked at Imagawa Kaede's quiet sleeping face could he calm down slightly. He aimlessly fiddled with Kaede Imagawa's small hands on the quilt and his long satin-like hair, but the apprehension in his heart always haunted him.

I haven't told her my plans yet.

What to do.

Do you tell her after it happens? What will she think of me?

What would she say if she had been told before it happened? Will it stop me? If she stops me, will I be able to carry out my plan with determination?

But don't tell her... How can I explain to her in the future, and how can I break my promise to her?

Yu Qiuping's face was at war with heaven and man, and almost many times he wanted to wake up the sleeping Imagawa Kaede immediately, and immediately laid out all the plans. She agreed, cried, or scolded herself, but he couldn't bear the torment anymore.

Seven years of forbearance and the obsession with revenge seem to have caused some problems in his spirit. He himself felt that he was getting stranger and stranger.

He secretly tried twice, quietly shaking Imagawa Kaede. He promised himself in his heart that if Kaede Imagawa woke up, he would tell her everything immediately. However, once Imagawa Kaede falls asleep, it is difficult to wake up. The first time she was shaken, Kaede Imagawa didn't move at all. And when he couldn't bear the pressure to shake her again in the second half of the night, Imagawa Kaede only frowned in his sleep, turned over and swept away the quilt on Yu Qiuping's body, and continued to sleep peacefully.

"I'm sick to death." Yuqiu Ping looked at the ceiling in the moonlight and muttered softly in Chinese. "Really... I can't hold on anymore. ”

·

When the sun rose the next day, Yu Qiuping climbed out of his bed as if he had been pardoned. I haven't slept all night, but my head is exceptionally awake. He unceremoniously woke up Maeda Toshi's house, who was not yet asleep, and pulled him to have breakfast hastily before he hurried to Cheongju City. Before leaving, he simply assigned a task to the remaining Naoe Tadahei and them, and then set off impatiently.

"You kid, don't you usually want to stay by your wife and children, and you won't move your nest at a step?" Maeda Toshiya, who was riding on a horse, looked at Yu Qiuping, who didn't know why he was in a hurry today, and scolded with a smile: "What's wrong today, I'm so anxious to see the lord!" ”

"I don't know." Yu Qiuping was not in the mood to talk to his eldest brother more at this moment, but kept clamping the horse's belly, whipping the horse's buttocks with a leather whip, and endlessly increasing the horse's speed. He couldn't wait to detonate Sumamata City in the next second, and he could take revenge, and he could end his repeated hesitation and struggle between revenge and revenge for the past seven years. Every second he waited was extremely tormenting for him.

The speed of the horses is getting faster and faster, and the sun is gradually rising into noon, and the outline of Kiyoshu Castle and the castle town are already faintly visible. Yu Qiuping only felt that his heart was about to jump to his throat, as if the city in front of him was not Cheongju City, but Momata City.

Please, hurry up and let me make a choice.

I'm going crazy!
