Chapter 63: Seeing the Moon from the Clouds

After listening to the conversation between Xiubao and his retainers, Gao Hu couldn't help but turn pale and tremble: "Lord, do you doubt it..."

"Yes, the evidence is in front of me, even if I don't believe it in my heart, I can't ignore this cruel fact." Xiubao closed his eyes tightly and pressed his right hand on his temple, the pain overflowing.

"The minister didn't expect that as a woman from the Asano family, she would do such a thing for the Omi faction, if Asano Danmasa knew, it must be heartbreaking." Gao Hu sighed helplessly.

Xiubao shook his head and thought: "Based on my understanding of her, although she is a little arrogant and unlikeable, she is simple-minded, and she can be regarded as a woman, and she will never do such a thing for no reason, so she must have some hardships." ”

"Then what is the lord going to do with it, is it to be imprisoned immediately, or to pretend not to know so as not to startle the snake?" Gao Hu was quite concerned about Xiubao's next decision.

"Let me go and see it first." Xiubao sighed lightly, and asked everyone to go back first, and the specific matters would be discussed the next day.

With heavy steps, Hideho came to the door of Sakurahime's bedroom, looked at the faint candlelight in the room, and couldn't help but say to himself: "I said that I would come to see her tonight, and she really left the light until now, how can such a simple woman break my heart?" ”

Xiubao wanted to kick open the door and go in to question, but he couldn't bear to see this scene, after all, he had never been with her well, let alone had any feelings, she was like an unused utensil that was placed in the corner forever by herself, until it was full of dust, entangled in spider silk, and finally slowly passed away.

Thinking of this, Hideho withdrew his kick from the door, turned around and walked towards the palace.

At this moment, whether it was a coincidence or a heart, the door opened softly, and Sakurahime walked to the porch with broken steps in her small coat.

"Your Highness, will you go back?" Sakurahime asked timidly.

"Ah, seeing that the lights in your house are on, I'll stop by and have a look." Hideho himself didn't believe in this excuse.

"That's right, thank you for your concern." Sakurahime still stood in place, her head bowed and muttering quietly.

"What a silly girl, can't you remind me that I came to see you until now?" Hideho turned his back to Sakurahime, and only thought she was angry and funny.

"Then I'll go back first." Xiu Bao straightened up and took a step forward.

"Please wait a minute." Sakurahime chased after her clogs and respectfully gave the hand stove to Hideho.

Xiubao returned the stove to her and smiled: "It's March now, why do you need a stove?" Mrs. is cold, just enjoy it by herself, and there is no need to worry about being a husband. ”

"Then the concubine will retire first." Sakurahime walked to the dormitory in a bit of a frustration, presumably she herself thought that this way of accosting herself was too far-fetched.

"It's not late at night, Ah Jiang and Ju Ji must have fallen asleep, I wonder if I can spend the night at Madame's place?" Xiu asked kindly.

"Absolutely!" Sakurahime turned around, stared at Xiubao with a pair of big watery eyes, and said excitedly, maybe feeling a little frivolous, and immediately bowed down and apologized: "Everything about the concubine is His Royal Highness, why come to say that the concubine is rude." ”

"If you don't mind," Hideho stepped forward, took Sakurahime's hand and walked inside, "Then I'll disturb Madame tonight." ”

This sudden move had already made Sakura Hime's lips close tightly, her cheeks crimson, and she had the ability to respond, so she was taken back to the bedroom by Xiubao in such a daze.

"Your Highness, don't you have some wine to warm up first..."Sakurahime was a little overwhelmed.

"Don't drink anymore, it's not early, let's rest early." Hideho casually lay down on Sakurahime's bed.

"Your Highness, then Concubine Rong will change your clothes." Sakurahime's face is so hot that she can fry an egg.

"No need, just make a living." Hideho quickly got into the quilt and smiled at Sakurahime, "What do you think, hurry up and go to sleep." ”

"Yes," Kikuhime walked to the corner out of Hidebo's sight, shyly took off her gown and sleeves, leaving only a single coat, and quickly blew out the candle while Hideho was unprepared, and groped her way to the bed and got into the bed.

The room was pitch black, and the two young hearts were only separated by a layer of bedding, the last time they were so close was half a year ago.

"Are you cold?" Xiubao asked.

"It's not cold." Sakurahime replied.

"And what are you shaking?"

"The concubine body, the concubine body is happy."

"Oh, happy about what?"

"Your Highness, I'm sorry."

"I'm sorry what?"

"I you off last time."

"When?"

"It was last time."

"Why don't I remember?"

"Your Highness..."

Hideho asked Sakurahime to turn around, and although it was night, he could still feel the silent affection in the other party's eyes.

"Let it pass." Hideho gently stroked Sakurahime's forehead.

"Really, you don't blame me?" Hideho could clearly hear Sakurahime's sobs.

"Blame you, isn't it nice to be like this now?" At some point, Hideho got into Sakurahime's bed and held her in his arms.

"Your Highness, you..."

"Don't say any more, don't you want to do something else when I come over tonight?"

"Your Highness..."

…,…

"Your Highness, will you always hurt me?" Sakurahime snuggled up in Hideho's arms and said coquettishly.

"Of course, you're my lady." Hideho squinted, still reminiscing about the wonderful time just now.

"Will you forgive me if I do something wrong?" Sakurahime whispered tentatively.

"Make a mistake?" Xiubao suddenly remembered the purpose of this visit, but he already had a more perfect plan in his head, so he said perfunctorily: "Fool, how can you make a mistake, okay, you are also tired, hurry up and rest." ”

Early the next morning, Hideho summoned the three most trustworthy but resourceful retainers in the assessment room, Ishiro Shin, Fujido Takatora and Nasu Shikichi.

Gao Hu couldn't bear it at first, and asked nervously: "Lord, how did you ask last night, did Mrs. Sakurahime recruit the mastermind behind the scenes?" ”

Xiubao waved his hand, signaling him not to get excited: "I thought about it last night, if I directly provoked her, I am afraid that with her temperament, I am afraid that she will not have the face to live, whether it is out of personal feelings or to maintain the relationship with the Owari faction, so I thought of a better way." However, this time, I specially invited Master Chongchuan to come over for another matter. ”

Chongchuan is worthy of being a natural politician, even if he thought of the question that Xiubao was about to ask, his face still did not change, and he replied respectfully: "My lord, please say that the minister must know everything and say everything." ”

"Actually, it's not a big deal," Xiubao scratched his head, "This time when I came back, from the moment I saw Maki, I felt that the royal front and the people around me were weird, especially Shun Ji and Sakurahime, it seems that there is some relationship between them, plus this time Sakurahime is an outsider, I always feel that there is a connection between these things." During my eastward trip to Aizu, Horio-sama was in Ise Shiraku-ichi Rakuza, and Aoki and Kuwayama-sama were also in Kii to reorganize their fiefdoms, so you were the only one in Koriyama Castle, so what happened during this time? ”

"Yes, the minister also thinks it's strange, after the birth of the little princess, the imperial front and Zhiyunyuan have never been happy, and even Mrs. Sakurahime often washes her face with tears." Ziji also took advantage of the situation to say what he saw and heard.

"Wash your face with tears? Do you mean after giving birth to a little princess? Xiubao asked with concern.

"Exactly," Ziji nodded, "It is said that the premature birth of the emperor came suddenly, and the minister wanted to lead the guards into the backyard to protect him, but he was driven back to the front hall by Mrs. Shun Ji, and it was not until an hour later that the guards were allowed to enter the backyard to patrol, and at that time I saw a few maids crying..."

"Nasu-sama must not be judged." Chongchuan stopped Ziji in time and said calmly: "How can I wait for my subordinates to talk irrationally, or cry or laugh with the emperor, and I can just keep my mouth shut." ”

"Listen to what you mean, did the Imperial Front tell you to 'keep your mouth shut'?" Xiu Bao looked at Chongchuan coldly.

"This, please forgive the minister for not being able to tell me." Chongchuan bowed down and asked for sin.

Xiubao Huo Ran got up, pointed at Chongchuan and asked, "Do you listen to the imperial front or listen to me?" ”

"I listen to my lord's orders." Chongchuan had never seen Xiubao get angry, and he knew that the paper couldn't contain the fire, so he had to tell the truth: "The matter that the imperial front doesn't want you to get to the young master, it's also for the sake of you and the Toyotomi family." ”

"What do you say? Young master? ”

Xiubao stumbled and sat on the ground, and finally connected everything together, and in less than a day, he was already covered in bruises, and it was the two women he loved the most who hurt him.
