After the meeting with Kishiro, the time soon came to evening. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
After inquiring about the situation with the doctor in the city, Hoki decided to go to her brother's room now.
According to the doctor, it seems that after half a day of recuperation, Richo's physical condition and physical strength have recovered a little, and he is now walking in the courtyard behind the room.
After receiving permission, Ho Ji and the others entered the room and saw the head sitting near the courtyard rockery through the gap between the sliding doors on the opposite side.
Ho Ji was about to shout his name at his brother's back, but his eyes were a little chopped as his eyes adjusted to the setting sun outside.
In the orange-red sunset that gradually drifted downward, Li Chang's figure was reflected, and in the eyes of Hao Ji and the others who were in the dimly lit room, his back seemed to be a little inexplicably dazzling, and at the same time, it was accompanied by an indescribable loneliness.
is obviously still a middle-aged man, but it seems that he also has a kind of old man's charm.
His hair, too, seemed to be dyed in the harsh sunlight, reflecting the optical illusion of white hair intertwined with the orange sunset.
Looking at the back of Richo, Hidemitsu, who was standing behind Haohime, first thought of Kuroda Rusui of Chikuzen Province.
Although the scene, light, and atmosphere of Xiuguang and these two people when they met were different, there was an inexplicable sense of similarity for some reason.
But regret, it may be loneliness, or it may be a faint sense of sadness when your life is about to die.
Xiuguang sighed, thinking that although he was different in age when he met these two people, they both had the same ethereal feeling that their lives were about to end.
Therefore, although the current Li Chang does not look as weak as the water at that time, he must not live long.
As the sun sets, it is also the slow passing of a generation.
It seemed that because of the slight friction caused by Haoji and Xiuguang stopping on the floor of the room, Li Chang turned his head.
"Ah, Hao, you're here."
He smiled at his sister as he had done yesterday, then slowly got up and paced into the room.
"Brother, will your health be okay? It seems like there's a lot of movement in the city this morning. ”
Although he had confirmed with the doctor in advance, Hao Ji was still a little uneasy, so he went to his brother and asked again.
"It's okay, it's okay,"
Facing his sister's worried eyes, Li Chang waved his hand, signaling Hao Ji not to worry too much,
"It's a common thing. Although I often get sick, I can press it down quickly, and I usually rest for a while after getting sick. ”
Laughing at his condition, he walked over to the oil lamp, lit it, and then returned to the futon, bent over, and sat down.
"According to your orders, Ahao, I have just asked the retainers, attendants, and these people to leave temporarily. Hao, do you have anything important to tell me? ”
Li Chang kept his promise and temporarily separated all irrelevant people.
"Thank you, Elder Brother, for your understanding."
Ho Ji is very grateful to this brother who is surprisingly reasonable to his relatives.
There are two things that Hao Ji wants to solve tonight, one is to let Li Chang know the inside story of the Ukita incident, and then let Li Chang fake Xiu Gao as an illegitimate daughter, so as to complete the identity procedure as Hao Ji's adopted daughter in the future. The second is the adoption of Man Ji, and Hao Ji wants to ask her brother Li Chang to make her Man Ji's adoptive mother.
As for which thing to solve first, after considering the difficulty and complexity of the two things, Hao Ji felt that it would be better to solve the matter of wanting to adopt Man Ji as an adopted daughter first.
"Brother, about the matter of Man Ji, you are very worried about Man Ji's life after being adopted, right?"
She didn't intend to drag the mud and water in the slightest, but asked very bluntly.
"yes, yes."
Li Chang was a little puzzled, and he didn't know why his sister suddenly asked about this again.
"Although Aman's living situation definitely doesn't need to worry about me, the former governor of the Maeda family, it is still a little uncomfortable to hand Aman over to those retainers. Although I have been selecting candidates for adoptive parents for a long time, I still can't let go. ”
Speaking of the issue of Manji's adoptive parents, Richaga's face was sad again.
Seeing this, Hao Ji immediately asked:
"So, what if I'm the adoptive mother of Manhime?"
"Huh, huh?"
Li Chang, who couldn't react to his sister's sudden adoption request, was a little confused.
"Ah, Ah Hao, you want to adopt Ah Man?!"
"Yes."
Ho Ji went on to explain the reason for doing so,
"Isn't my brother very worried about those retainers in Kanazawa? At this time, it is the best choice to leave it to our brothers and sisters of the same mother to raise. Sister Ayuki and Chiyo are now too busy to take care of family matters, and although I am in Kyoto, a little far away from Echichu, I can definitely guarantee that Mitsuhime can get the best care. ”
After listening to his sister's explanation, Li Chang crossed his arms and thought for a while, feeling that his sister's statement made a little sense.
It is not easy to leave it to the retainers, and most of the half-brothers are still too young, so it would be good to ask the half-sisters who are closer to each other.
Among the brothers and sisters of the same mother, except for a few who have passed away and a few who have no time to take care of it due to family affairs, it seems that only Hao Ji is the best person to adopt Manhime.
After all, Hao Ji is still relatively young, and her physical condition and living environment are good, and she will not have financial and psychological burdens. Today, she still lives in Kyoto with Kodai-in, which is a good environment in terms of living conditions and cultural influence.
And as a relative close to each other by blood, Hao Ji is unlikely to treat Man Ji badly. On the contrary, it is estimated that he will pamper Man Ji like his own child.
"This ...... Hao, are you okay over there? The Lord of Kodaiin won't disagree, right? ”
Li Chang knew that his sister Hao Ji was now living with his adoptive mother, Gao Taiyuan, so he was a little worried that Gao Taiyuan would not oppose this matter.
"The adoptive mother would not object to such a thing. You also know my brother, whether it's an adoptive father or an adoptive mother, they are all people who like children very much. ”
Haoji was one of the children who was pampered by his adoptive father, Taiko Hideyoshi, and his adoptive mother, Takadaiin. Of course, at that time, the Gaotai Courtyard was still revered as the North Politics Office. Therefore, she naturally knows the character of her adoptive mother, Gao Taiyuan, and can also be sure that Gao Taiyuan will not object to this matter.
Therefore, there should be no objection to this decision. Considering Haohime, the retainers of the Maeda family are unlikely to oppose this matter. The retainers of Kanazawa Castle are expected to be happy because this matter has resolved the insecurity of the inheritance.
