"Since your retainers have come to look for you, then I will take my leave in advance. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Hidemitsu didn't plan to stay here for long, and he didn't plan to bathe in the vigilant gaze of Denji all the time. So he chose to take his leave.

"By the way, Chinoyo, don't forget the promise to see you at the end of March next year. I don't like to be teased by other people. ”

Ignoring Denji's unfriendly gaze, which seemed to swallow him, he stepped forward and patted Chinoyo on the shoulder as a sign of farewell.

"Huh? Are you leaving? …… Well, I'm just going to leave just as well. ”

Chinoyo thought about it for a moment, kicked Denji's calf like a tantrum by the way, and then said to Hidemitsu:

"Well, I see! This time next year, I'll be on time for my appointment! Don't forget, goodbye! ”

With a simple wave of their hands and patting each other on the shoulder, Hidemitsu and Chinoyo walked in opposite directions to each other and said goodbye for the time being.

"My lord! You're too forgiving, aren't you? ”

Not long after Hidemitsu left, Denji, who was walking in the other direction, couldn't help but reprimand in front of Chinoyo.

"The kid just now doesn't look like the son of a famous martial artist, and he is dressed very ordinarily, obviously a low-level samurai! However, it is really unbelievable that such a despicable person dares to speak to your lord so unscrupulously! ”

"You're too much of that......"

"That's not what my subordinates meant! Adults you have to be mindful of who you are, and it's better to talk to those people as little as possible. ”

Chuanci looks like a parent reprimanding the child, very serious,

"Your Excellency, you're not like this in front of your retainers. Even if you hide your identity and come out to play, it won't be so easy to talk when you get here, right? ”

Hearing this, Chinoyo suddenly stopped.

Denji didn't know what he wanted to do, so he stopped.

"Well, Chuanji, did you make a mistake?"

Chinoyo stared at Denji with the eyes of a stranger, and then said in the tone of the master's reprimand of his subordinates:

"Who are those retainers? Aren't they all useless people who are good for nothing but martial arts? It's okay for you and a few other people, and you're kind of a person who has read some books. I'm not the kind of person who can talk to people who don't know how to learn. You know that very well, right? ”

"Indeed...... But that boy, Chinoyo-sama, do you want to say that he is better than his retainers? ”

Chuanji looked at his adult with suspicion, and then subconsciously looked back at the direction where Xiuguang left, seemingly a little incredulous.

Because in his impression, Chinoyo-sama has always been a proud person, and he doesn't associate much with uneducated people. So he was a little surprised and skeptical of what he had just seen with his own eyes.

The usually arrogant Chinoyo-sama would actually talk to a low-ranking samurai boy who seemed to have a low status? And also had a great time?

No, no, no, this must be something wrong!

Chuan Ji shook his head, still in disbelief.

“…… Pass times! Are you doubting me? ”

Chinoyo is a perceptive person. He sensed Denji's suspicion and disbelief, so he asked a little unhappily,

"His knowledge in some aspects is much better than those retainers in the family who only take money and don't do anything, don't look down on people! Be careful, tell my mother when I get back! ”

"Uh...... Please don't disclose this......"

Hearing the words "tell my mother", Chuanji's face showed embarrassment and fear that matched his age.

"Hmph, then don't talk about this topic, let's go back quickly!"

Chinoyo saw Denji's embarrassment, and with a smile on his face that had succeeded in his plan, he walked forward quickly.

……

……

Hidemitsu walked in the opposite direction to Chinoyo them.

Unlike Chinoyo, who trotted all the way back, Hidemitsu stopped where he was waiting for Hidemune after a few steps, and sat down on the big rock.

"Alas, what a noisy day."

Xiuguang sat on the stone and sighed.

Although I am only halfway through today, it feels like I have experienced a lot of things.

Especially what happened in the last half hour, it felt like a whole day.

"Well...... Anyway, I met Chinoyo, so it's not too bad today......"

Stretching his waist, Xiuguang directly half lay on the big rock.

"Irisawa, you can come out. It was really hard for half an hour just now, and you have been hiding to the side. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Irizawa Shinnai, who had been hiding in the dark, appeared by Xiuguang's side again.

"Irisawa, you also saw that kid just now, right? How does it feel? ”

“…… It should be the child of a famous martial artist. At least that's how it feels to me. And so did the retainer boy who came later. ”

"Well, can't you see who he is, though?"

“…… My lord, there is no way we can see a person so thoroughly. Do I need to follow him? ”

"Well...... Forget it. ”

Xiuguang thought about it and felt that it was better not to let Iris follow him.

Not to mention that people have gone far, the main reason is that there are too many people on the streets now, and it is difficult to determine the goal. And there's no point in doing that.

“…… But, my lord, you have never had such a good day. ”

Suddenly, this sentence came out of Irizawa's mouth.

Xiuguang was slightly surprised, and then his eyes returned to calm.

"You think so too...... I was really happy just now. ”

I don't have any strong feelings, but it's a rare day to have a good chat.

Well...... Let's relax today. It's not a good thing to be too stressed all the time.

“…… Under! Your Highness! ”

Thinking so, Xiuzong suddenly appeared.

"Oh, it's Hyogoro. You've worked hard, too. ”

Xiuzong's clothes were a little messy now, obviously just squeezed out of the crowd.

"That's right...... There were so many people on my side just now that I almost couldn't find my way. Your Highness, you are really leisurely, haven't you just stayed in this kind of shady place to rest? ”

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Xiuzong didn't even bother to tidy up his clothes, and sat directly on the stone next to him.

"I haven't been here all the time, I just ran into a very interesting person by the river, so we talked over there for a while."

Xiuguang mentioned the matter with Chinoyo just now, and Xiuzong suddenly became interested.

"Huh? Who is it? If you can make your Highness very interesting, it must be a very interesting person! ”

“…… Although he may not be the same as Hyogoro, you think of it as 'funny'. ”

Xiuguang laughed, then sat up from the stone,

"Confidentiality. You just have to know that he's interesting. ”

"Huh...... It's really curious! ”

"What is there to be curious about. Now that we've met, it's time for us to get ready to go back to Osaka Castle. ”

"Of course I'm curious...... Ahhh ”

It's still as noisy as ever.

All in all, it's not too bad today.

I always feel that I was struggling with whether I was unlucky or lucky today, and I was stupid.

Xiuguang laughed at himself as he embarked on the return trip.
