Perhaps it was providence that Hideho arrived on Nagashima, and on the day it was the seventh day of the child's end, Sakurahime and several maids went to Kumatsu Temple to chant and pray for their mother and son.

Although it has been nearly a month since the incident, Sakura Ji has never forgotten it, every time she sees the only girl left, and Kikuhime's pityful and loving eyes, Sakura Ji always falls into deep self-blame and guilt, therefore, she will go to the Buddha Hall and Zhiyun Temple every day to spend time for the child, in exchange for a little comfort in the soul.

Although Kikuhime wants her to spend the seventh day for the child in the Buddhist hall at home, Sakurahime insists on going to Kumatsuji Temple to pray for the child's blessing, and at the same time to make amends in front of the Bodhi Pagoda of Hidenaga.

At noon on the same day, after Sakurahime finished worshipping, she walked out of the mountain gate with red eyes under the support of the maid, with a sad and lost face, and must have cried in the temple again.

Shoulder just to Koizumi,Suddenly by the side of the road out of a team of samurai blocked the way,Due to the suddenness of the incident,Sakurahime around except for four palanquins and a few maids, there is no one else,Although these slaves are around the shoulder to protect Sakurahime,But relying on them to fight against the fierce samurai is tantamount to a mantis arm as a car,Sakurahime didn't want to have a senseless sacrifice,So she had to walk out of the shoulder,Forced to calmly reprimand the samurai: "You country warriors, do you know who I am?" Dare to block the road and loot in broad daylight, don't you want to live? ”

"Of course I know who you are, long time no see, Lady Sakurahime." A middle-aged man walked out slowly from behind the samurai, bowed deeply to Sakurahime, and showed a smile that was very incongruous with this occasion: "When Madame joined the Toyotomi family, I was also there to watch the ceremony, I wonder if you still have an impression?" ”

Sakurahime's mind was full of horror and anger at this time, and besides, there were so many guests at the beginning, how could she know them all. When the middle-aged man saw her puzzled, he stopped pretending to be mysterious, and reminded kindly: "The next is Masuda Nagamori, who came with Ishida Jibu at the beginning." ”

"Osamu Ishida?" Sakurahime didn't have any impression of Changsheng, but because he mentioned Ishida Mitsunari and became vigilant, whether it was in Kofu or Koriyama, Sakurahime would hear some comments about this Jibu Shaosuke, of course, most of them were bad, such as the death of Hideji, the exile of Asano Yukinaga, etc., all of which were relied on on his head, and he had been exposed to it for a long time in such an environment, so he naturally had no good impression of Sansei.

Sakurahime frowned slightly, and asked a little nervously, "Masuda-sama connived at his subordinates to recklessly stop the sedan chair, I don't know what's important?" ”

Changsheng knew that it was a bit rude, and apologized while bowing: "I didn't think it through and disturbed Madame, please understand, I do have some things I want to discuss with Madame, and I ask Madame to take a step to speak." ”

"It's good to have something to say here, there's no need to sneak around." Sakurahime said confidently.

Changsheng didn't get angry when he heard this, he still bowed down and smiled: "Is it okay even if it's about the late young master?" ”

"You, what the hell do you want to do?" Sakurahime didn't expect Nagamori to know this, and while she was frightened, her tone softened with the trembling of her body.

"Actually, it's nothing, but for the sake of Madame, please go down and discuss." Nagamori was very satisfied with Sakurahime's expression now, and couldn't help but be a little proud.

Sakurahime had no choice but to follow Nagamori to a nearby abandoned farmhouse.

"How did you know about this?" Sakurahime asked first.

Changsheng motioned for her to sit down first, sat cross-legged himself, and said leisurely: "Nothing can escape the following, oh no, it's the eyes of Lord Jibe, you don't need to ask more questions about this question, I invite you here to discuss a business with you." ”

"Business?" Sakurahime's face was full of questions, and she replied calmly: "The concubine is a woman, and she doesn't understand business, so you must have found the wrong person." ”

"How can you find the wrong person, aren't you the daughter of Asano Danmasa, the lady of Toyotomi's servant?" Changsheng was still smiling.

Sakura nodded, but the doubts in her heart were still not resolved: "So what, please don't beat around the bush again, the concubine is still in a hurry to go back." ”

"Are you in a hurry to go back to see His Highness?" Nagamori's tone was slightly mocking, "Don't worry, His Highness is on his way to Fushimi now, and he will probably not be able to return to Koriyama until evening, as long as this business goes well, you can go back to dress up and greet His Highness well." ”

Sakurahime was a little impatient, and urged impatiently, "If you have something to say, don't waste time." ”

Changsheng nodded, and said respectfully: "Then it will be straight to the point, I hope you will monitor His Highness the Servant for the Lord of the Ministry of Governance, and report the abnormal situation to Zaixia in time, in exchange, about the matter of the young master, we will hide it in our hearts, and we will not leak the slightest rumor." ”

"Don't think!" Sakurahime stood up angrily and scolded Changsheng: "Kill the young master, I already feel ashamed of His Highness and the Imperial Front in my heart, how can I still do such a despicable thing with a clear conscience, you will die of this heart." ”

"Oh, Madame mean you don't agree?" Nagamori didn't look up, just stroked his beard and asked Sakurahime calmly.

Sakurahime nodded fiercely, and reiterated angrily: "That's right, the concubine body has already been sorry for His Highness for the next time, how can it be wrong again and again, this matter is here, the concubine body is gone." ”

Seeing Sakurahime turn to leave, Nagamori snorted and asked with a sneer: "Madame, aren't you afraid that this matter will reach the ears of Taiko and affect the Asano family?" ”

Sakurahime paused for a moment, but still turned her back to Nagamori, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and replied indifferently: "Since I dare to refuse you, I have already prepared for the worst, even if I take the life of the Asano clan, I can't be sorry for His Highness and the Imperial Front, what you want to do, you just do it." ”

After speaking, Sakura Ji continued to walk out of the door, Changsheng was a little surprised at this time, but he didn't get up to stop him, just scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a pout: "I didn't expect Madame to be so upright, I admire it, but have you ever thought about Ju Yuqian, if you tell Taige about this, I'm afraid she will also be implicated." ”

Sakurahime stopped again and said nervously: "What does this have to do with the Imperial Front, I caused her to lose her child, what is her fault, don't be alarmist." ”

Changsheng could see that Sakurahime was very nervous, and thought that the plan was finally going to succeed, and smiled even brighter: "How can a mother help the murderer of her child hide the truth?" Most people won't believe it, and Taige is definitely no exception, not to mention that the emperor committed the crime of deceiving the Taige because of this, even if the Taige won't blame him for this, he will doubt her original intention of doing this, don't tell the Taige that the emperor is merciful, he won't believe it; The only thing that can make him agree is that the imperial front intends to take the Asano family for his own use, and Danmasa-sama is already dissatisfied with the Taiko, and it is reasonable to be close to the servants. The punk party is the thing that Taige hates the most, if it really makes Taige have such an idea, I am afraid that the matter of Guan Bai before will be staged again on His Royal Highness. ”

Sakurahime was already trembling at the moment, tears were scratching on her pale cheeks, her lips were squirming but she couldn't say anything, and her already fragile psychological defense line finally collapsed completely at this moment.

"Tell me, what do you want me to do." Sakurahime was still facing away from Nagamori.

"I've already said it below, it's to keep a good watch on the servants for the Lord of the Governing Department, that's all." Nagamori replied kindly.

"That's all?"

"That's all, the Ministry of Governance has no ill will towards His Royal Highness, in the final analysis, he is just worried that his power expansion will threaten His Highness Shimaru's status, if you can inform the Ministry of Governance of His Highness's every move, so that he can be sure that His Royal Highness is loyal and has no intention of rebellion, then the Ministry of Governance will naturally not embarrass you and His Highness." There was a somewhat affirmative tone in Changsheng's words.

"I know, but I also ask you to tell Lord Zhibu, so that he can remember his promise and never endanger His Highness and the Imperial Front." Sakurahime said calmly, but she still didn't turn around.

"Got it, there will be Mrs. Lao in the future." Although Sakurahime turned her back to her, Nagamori bowed respectfully and thanked her.

Sakurahime straightened up and walked out of the farmhouse as if nothing had happened, until she sat down on her shoulder, and then she began to cry bitterly, so painfully and so bitterly, as if every cry contained guilt, and every tear was full of despair.

At this time, Hideho is frowning on the horse, thinking of the name of the newborn little princess, and this scene can't help but make people feel that "pain and happiness" can be used not only to describe the mother, but also sometimes to the father.
