Xiuguang on the left is lying on his knees, and Xiulai on the right is pulling his sleeves with a pure and serious expression. The fact that the two sons of the pen and the fun www.biquge.info asked at the same time made Mrs. Yodo's face look embarrassed and smiling.

"You two children ......"

Mrs. Yodo asked Xiuguang to sit down first, and then turned her head and asked Xiulai:

"Xiulai, aren't there still several close servants around you? If you're going to be with a book boy or something, wouldn't it be nice to pick a few of them? Choosing someone from among those who are not retainers, I think it's still a bit inappropriate for my mother. ”

"No, Mother, although there are many ways to get close to the child, but besides re-sei...... The other kids didn't really like it. Most of them don't go well with their children...... So ......"

"Really...... Yes, too. ”

Not to mention anything else, Xiu Lai's candidates for the surnames and personal maids on the opposite side are relatively picky. When he was young, it is said that there was a time when he didn't feel particularly happy with the maids around him, so he told his father Hideyoshi about it, and in the end, the maids were dismissed.

is more tolerant of ordinary retainers.,But it's very picky about the people around him and the people who are close to him.。 Or it can also be said that the side that you like is more lenient. This is Hideyori.

Therefore, Mrs. Yodo did not doubt the answer that Xiulai said.

After all, this son's dissatisfaction with those close to him is not a matter of a day or two, and Mrs. Yodo, as a mother, has occasionally heard about this kind of thing from Hideyori in the past. Of all the people who are most trusted by Hideyori, it is estimated that only the Kimura Nagato Mamoru of the milk brothers has become a heavy one.

"Well, I see. It's a defeat to both of you. ”

Sighing helplessly, Mrs. Yodo touched Xiuguang's head, patted Xiulai's hand, and then smiled and made a gesture of surrender,

"Since Xiu Lai is a scholar who really wants to read with him, then I agreed. Just do what you like, Shurai. ”

After getting his mother's permission, Xiulai immediately bowed his head and thanked him.

"Yes, thank you, Mother."

"But!"

“？”

Seeing that her mother suddenly changed her tone again, Xiu Lai and Xiuguang raised their heads uneasily to look at their mother who was full of majesty.

"However, the punishment for Ida's attendants must be given! Attendant Date repeatedly violated the rules and orders of the law, and naturally he should be given appropriate punishment. Xiulai, this matter must be implemented, and you let Chongcheng take charge of handling it. ”

"Uh...... The child understood. The child will leave the matter to Chongcheng. ”

"Also, Hidemitsu, don't learn from Ada's squire! In the future, if Ida's attendant violates the rules again, you must tell your mother. ”

"Uh-huh...... The child knows! ”

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Yodo has been holding on to the matter of Xiuzong. Xiulai and Xiuguang could only perfunctorily laugh twice in response to their mother's anger.

I'm sorry, Xiuzong, I can only sacrifice you for the sake of success.

Xiuguang folded his hands inwardly and said sorry with a secret smile. Accepting the punishment inexplicably, and this punishment was still dealt with by his most resistant, Xiuzong must have been crazy when he received the news.

"Ah, by the way, Mother, I heard that those two children are not yet ready to be served. Therefore, in addition to accepting the scholars as companions, the child also planned to hold a Yuan costume ceremony for them after taking the two of them to the city. I would like to ask my mother to agree to this. ”

Hideyori did not forget this intention, so he continued to inquire while his mother was happy.

"Just do what you like, Shurai. Mother, I have no opinion. ”

Sure enough, I got Mrs. Yodo's consent very smoothly.

Now that they had successfully agreed, Hideyori and Hidemitsu left their mother's room together after a brief thank you and goodbye.

After leaving the room, Xiuguang's expression was very relaxed and relieved, but Xiulai's expression seemed to be very tired.

"Xiuguang."

"What's the matter, brother?"

Hearing his younger brother answer himself in a completely different tone from the one he had just said in front of his mother, Xiu Lai couldn't help but say a few words while smiling bitterly:

"You don't behave in front of your mother at all the same way as you behave in front of me."

"Well...... That's one of the tricks. Do you want to try to be coquettish to your mother? It's very effective. ”

"This ...... Forget it. ”

With a few wry smiles, Xiu Lai deliberately avoided the topic and talked with Xiuguang about the arrangements for Yuan Fu and other things.

Before he spoke, he looked around cautiously, worried about whether the maid would be eavesdropping.

"Koheita and Yashiro's entry into the city is set for ten days later. Because it's almost the beginning of next year, it must be completed within this year, otherwise when the ministers come to celebrate the New Year in January, I won't have time to deal with the Yuanfu matter. ”

With a bit of a headache, he tapped on the side of his temples and straightened the black hat on his head, as if he was tired of the inevitable procedure that took place at the beginning of each year.

If things drag on until next year, it is estimated that there will really be no time. Hideyori was busy meeting with the ministers and some of the Toyotomi daimyo envoys, and Hidemitsu might also be on his way to Kyoto in March. Therefore, it is better to do it early, and it is likely to overlap with other things if it is delayed until next year.

"After ten days, let them enter the city in secrecy. Anyway, my mother had already agreed, and at the beginning she made it clear that she didn't plan to spread the matter of accepting scholars in the city, so it was okay to come in through the secret passage. After entering the city, after two days, you can hold a Yuanfu ceremony after settling down a little. ”

After Xiu Yori said these arrangements in a serious manner, Xiuguang was a little surprised, and then nodded.

I thought my brother hadn't thought about it so much, but it turned out that he had already thought about it, and he thought about it more than me in some parts. Xiuguang thought as he nodded.

"I see, sir. I'll tell them about these arrangements. That's right,"

After nodding his head, Xiuguang remembered his inexplicable servant who was lying on the gun,

"Regarding the punishment of Hyogoro, brother, what should I do?"

"Xiuzong...... Since my mother said so, it's impossible to turn a blind eye to him...... Well, I'll tell Shiesei to stop in moderation. Okay? ”

"Well, that's fine, thank you, brother."

Well, no matter what the outcome is, it seems that poor Xiuzong can't escape this punishment from the master mother. Let's pay for the previous violations of the law.

In this regard, Xiuguang could only smile, and then went back to comfort a certain Binggoro.
