"That...... It's a brother, right? ”

"Hey, hey, it's actually Lord Hideyori......!!"

Xiuguang, who rubbed his eyes again, looked at his brother who turned over from the other side of the wall, and still felt very incredible. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Hidemune, who was sitting next to him, opened his mouth wide as his own highness when he saw Hideyori coming.

"Yes, yes. …… Xiuguang, why do you look at me with such eyes that see strange things? ”

Careful patting off all the dirt on his body, Hideyori was not used to fiddling with the cuffs of his clothes.

"It's not...... Brother, shouldn't you be resting in the mansion now? Why did you suddenly come to the Kujo family's mansion? No, no, no, after all, brother, how did you get here? ”

Hidemitsu used his brain, folded his fingers, and quickly began to calculate the distance from his brother's mansion in Kyoto to the Kujo family mansion, and then began to worry about the safety of this place.

"Brother, you won't come by yourself, will you? The Tokugawa family will definitely send out eyeliner to stare at you, is it really okay for you to run around casually now? It's too dangerous, isn't it? ”

Although Xiuguang, who often runs around, is not qualified to say this. But the identities of the two are different, Hideyori is the head of the Toyotomi family, Hidemitsu is just a younger brother who is still young and has little sense of existence, and the Tokugawa family may not keep an eye on Hidemitsu, but they will definitely not take their eyes off Hideyori.

So, it's not that you have to worry, but you have to worry about whether you will be targeted. Maybe the area around the Kujo family mansion is already full of eyeliners with a dangerous atmosphere. While thinking about this, Xiuguang also kept scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes.

"Uh...... I didn't come here alone, but Irisawa was too. ”

Hideyori didn't know how to explain his method of coming over to Hidemitsu, so he said Irizawa's name.

In this Shangluo, in order to ensure the safety of Hideyori, Hidemitsu asked Irizawa Shinnai and Tsuru Nosuke to follow him. Tsukichiyo is responsible for guarding Hidemitsu's safety.

Just as Hideyori said Irisawa's name, Irizawa Shinnai himself slowly walked out from behind.

"Don't worry about Hidemitsu-sama for the time being...... Because I chose the trail, the eyeliners of the Tokugawa family probably didn't notice that Hideyori-sama was coming out, and I didn't notice that someone was following me nearby...... And there is also a young master of Tsuru no Suke in the mansion who is playing the shadow warrior of Lord Hideyori. ”

Irizawa explained the current situation to Hidemitsu in his hoarse voice as always.

Since Irasawa has said so, then you can rest assured for the time being. After all, the strength of the old ninjas of the Wind Demon is also trustworthy. It's just that Tsuru no Suke has to be scared for a while again. Thinking so, Xiuguang temporarily let go of his hanging heart.

"Well, it's not a trivial matter that Hideyori-sama will come here in person."

Xiuzong crossed his arms and laughed a few times, and then was knocked on the head by Xiuguang, signaling him to be quiet.

"But speaking of which, is it really good that you don't stay in the mansion now, brother? How's going on at the court? ”

"Those things will be solved by the retainers. My rhetoric will have to go a few more days, and it's still time to rest. So now it's okay to let Tsuranosuke stay in the mansion instead of me. ”

After getting dressed, Hideyori took off the straw sandals he was wearing, stepped from the courtyard to the wooden-floored corridor, and after entering the room where Hidemitsu was, he continued to say to his younger brother:

"By the way, Xiuguang, your official position has also been requested by the imperial court."

“…… Huh? ”

As if he hadn't heard of it, Xiuguang's performance was a little surprised. Faced with his younger brother's reaction, Xiulai was just as surprised.

"Didn't Mother tell you? From the four lower left guards lieutenant general. My official rank is already in the second position, and my mother said that it is not good for you to stay in the fifth position all the time. ”

Lieutenant General Left Konoe is a foreign official subordinate to the Konoe Mansion, which is equivalent to an official position from the fourth. Compared to the five attendants of Xiuguang before, it is much higher. Counting the time, from the mid-April appointment of the tenth year of Keicho (1605), Hidemitsu also stayed in this position for more than a year and a half.

Speaking of the appointment of Lieutenant General Left Guard, Hidemitsu did hear about it for the first time, but after a little surprise, he quickly regained his composure. He is not a person who cares much about the size of the official position, so he does not show too much excitement or other reactions.

It's better to say that he is more concerned about his brother Hideyori's intention to come to the Kujo family mansion now than about the matter of the court and official position.

"Compared to these things...... Brother, why the hell are you here at this time of the evening? It can't be like me, just want to see Sister Wanzi, right? ”

Xiuguang looked at the nearly dusk sky outside the courtyard and asked.

"It's not...... If I have to admit it, there is also a reason for that.,I do want to meet Sister Wanzi.。 But in addition to this thought, I also want to meet the head of the Kujo family, Lord Tadaei. ”

"Elder Brother wants to see Tadaei-sama?"

"Hmm. Although he didn't want to talk about anything official, Tadaei-sama was not only the head of the Kujo family of the Seki family, but also the husband of Sister Wanko, and he was also the one who would take over the position of Lord Seki Hakutaka Shinbo. My mother didn't tell me anything about it, but I thought it was time to meet him. ”

Hideyori sat down in the middle of the room, while Irizawa Shinnai waited in the courtyard, not daring to take half a step into the mansion.

"At first, I wanted to come straight to the ...... However, Shigecheng reminded me that it was better not to do this, so I asked Irizawa to escort me. Also, after all, my identity is too sensitive. ”

As he spoke, Xiulai shook his head a little embarrassedly.

It seems that Hideyori's original idea was to visit the Kujo family directly. That's a bit inappropriate.

As Xiu Yori just said, his identity is too sensitive. The head of the Toyotomi family came to visit the future Sekihaku...... No matter how you think about it, the hatred is too great, and it is not a child's play that can be fooled with a few simple words. It's not clear whether the Tokugawa family will think or play on the topic.

"The reminder of the re-completion is correct. Brother, your status is indeed not suitable to visit the Kujou family directly. Although you have sneaked in now, Elder Brother, it is better to be careful, after all, not everyone can keep a secret. It's better to pretend to be my squire, so as not to arouse suspicion. ”

Since his brother had said so, and the proposal was reasonable, Xiulai looked at the ordinary clothes he was wearing, and there was no objection.
