Li Zhen put away the demon knife and returned with the group.

His eyes fell on the guide who came out to play this time, and asked, "In addition to the demon sword Muramasa, there should be three other things in Japan that are regarded as national treasures." The first place in the ranking is the Tiancong Cloud Sword, and the second in line are the Eight Mirror and the Eight Feet Qiong Hook Jade. Do you know the situation of these three weapons? ”

The guide nodded and said solemnly: "Lord, these three national treasures are treasures passed down from generation to generation by the royal family, and they should be kept by the royal family, I don't know the specific situation." ”

After a pause, the guide said in a deep voice: "You just took the demon knife Muramasa, do you still want to pocket the Eight Mirrors, the Eight Feet Qiong Hook Jade and the Tiancong Cloud Sword?" The guide speculated in his heart, and was completely speechless to Li Zhen, the person in front of him was too greedy, and he didn't have the bearing of the ancient Chinese country at all, not only did he not give them anything, but snatched the treasure from here.

Of course, the guide just muttered in his heart and didn't dare to say it.

Li Zhen smiled and didn't answer.

Why not pocket what you can take?

After the group returned to their residence, Li Zhen took the Demon Knife Village into his bag and became his collection of weapons. For the sharp weapon of the demon knife Muramasa, Li Zhen has no idea of using it with him, after all, after having a pistol, it is troublesome to carry a weapon with him, and there is no need for weapons such as long knives and long swords for self-defense.

Li Zhen asked Zeng Guofan and Zuo Zongtang to be invited again, and the three of them got together to discuss the next situation, because it was not far from the time of the Great Comparison between the Fallen Curtain Faction and the Japanese Imperial Family.

……

Nagasaki, the residence of the Tokugawa shogunate.

This is not the Tokugawa Shogunate in Kyoto, but the residence of the head of the Tokugawa Shogunate, who was in charge of Nagasaki. After Tokugawa Hegen returned to the house with the samurai, he immediately met with Tokugawa Ietoshi, the head of the Tokugawa shogunate.

In the study, Tokugawa Ietoshi was sitting precariously.

His hands were on his knees, very serious, and he looked majestic.

After Tokugawa Biangen saluted, he said respectfully: "My lord, a big event happened in Mingdaozhai today. Li Zhen, the king of the south of the Great Qing Kingdom Town, who visited Japan, took the demon knife and did not return it, and Tokugawa Mushin led people to stop it, and was killed by Li Zhen on the spot. He led his troops to stop it, but he was also stopped by Li Zhen's people. Moreover, Li Zhen also arrogantly said let's not provoke him, otherwise he will be polite. Li Zhen is just a prince of the opposite sex in the Qing Dynasty, not even a prince, he is so arrogant, can we sit idly by? ”

"Li Zhen!!"

Tokugawa Iejun frowned and said, "It involves Li Zhen, it's not easy to operate." ”

Tokugawa Bian Yuan asked puzzledly: "My lord, Li Zhen took away the demon sword village Zheng, and said that he would take it for himself and would not return it." Such a bandit practice, still sit idly by? ”

"It's not that it's ignored, it's that it's not easy to deal with!"

Tokugawa Iejun sighed and said helplessly: "The current Great Qing Kingdom is Li Zhen's final say, let alone the prince, even the emperor and the empress dowager have to be careful in front of Li Zhen, and they have no right to speak." Li Zhen's snatching of the demon knife Muramasa was put on hold for the time being, and it should not continue to expand. I will immediately report the news to Shogun Tokugawa Ieshige, and ask the shogun to think about it before deciding what to do. Remember, you must not make a move on Li Zhen, otherwise you will bear the consequences. ”

"Yes!"

Tokugawa Biangen's heart sank, and he didn't dare to speak again.

……

The Emperor's Inn, in the lobby.

There were a lot of people in the hall, some of them were handsome, some were tall, and some were roe-headed rats......

In short, the gathering of people is very large and very complicated.

In fact, these people in the hall were all recruited by Yoo Noda to prepare to compete with the Fallen Curtain faction led by Yoshida Shoin, which can be called a talent "crowd". Emperor Xiaomei's gaze swept over everyone, and a faint sadness appeared on his face, and he always felt that it was difficult for these people to succeed, because most of them could not enter the emperor's eyes, and they felt inappropriate at a glance.

Emperor Komei's gaze fell on Yoo Noda, and he asked solemnly, "Noda-kun, are you sure that they have all been carefully selected?" Do you know everyone carefully? ”

Yoo Noda said: "Please rest assured, the emperor knows all of them carefully, and they are all talented people. ”

"Oh, really?" Emperor Xiaomei asked here.

An Ren interjected and said, "Noda-kun, I'm skeptical. ”

The three of them spoke, making the people in the hall very uncomfortable, because the emperor did not trust them. One of them, who was less than a hundred and sixty centimeters tall, but had a round waist and broad shoulders, and thick arms stepped out, and with every step he took, he would pause, and the floor in the hall would shake, showing that his weight was really beyond ordinary people.

After standing still, he stretched out two big fists and slapped his chest, and said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency the Emperor, down here is the samurai Jiro Dohihara invited by Lord Noda. If you don't believe it, you can ask someone to give it a try, and you will understand it on the spot. ”

"Okay, that's it!"

Emperor Xiaomei was already suspicious in his heart, so he immediately agreed.

Immediately, An Ren arranged for a samurai in the palace to fight. This samurai is also a strong man, and after he stood still, he listened to Jiro Dohihara say, "Come on, let you punch two first." ”

The samurai clenched his fists and threw a punch with all his strength.

"Bang!!"

A punch hit Jiro Dohihara's body, and Jiro Dohihara remained motionless, but the samurai was shaken.

The samurai is the one who protects the emperor, and the thought that his attack is ineffective makes his face hot. He immediately adjusted, took another deep breath, and threw another punch, still hitting Jiro Dohihara's body. This punch passed, still making a muffled sound, and in the end there was still no result.

Jiro Dohihara said: "Let you punch twice, it's my turn, take it!" ”

With a loud shout, Jiro Dohihara punched out.

When the samurai saw the fist coming, he didn't dare to retreat, and swung his fist to meet it, after all, he couldn't dodge in front of the emperor, otherwise he would lose the emperor's face.

"Click!!"

The fists collided, and Jiro Dohihara's fingers were not affected in the slightest, but the samurai's fist was injured, his finger was broken, and he was beaten by a punch and had no strength to resist.

The simple battle reflects the strength of Jiro Dohihara.

Emperor Xiaoming nodded and said, "Very good, very good, really a master!" ”

At this moment, Emperor Komei saw that the samurai was seriously injured by Jiro Dohihara, not only was he not angry, but he was extremely happy, because he had finally found a fierce general. In particular, Noda Yoo has found so many people, they must all be fierce people, which makes Emperor Komei full of confidence in defeating Yoshida Shoin and others next.

After a pause, Emperor Xiaomei asked, "Noda-kun, the scribe is more than fighting, are the literati confirmed?" ”

Yoo Noda said, "Back to the Emperor, everyone is in the hall. They are all outstanding people, and they are carefully selected by me and have been assessed. I think we will be able to defeat the people that Shoin Yoshida has found. ”

Emperor Xiaomei nodded and said, "Very good, Noda-kun has confidence in you, and I have confidence in you. You recuperate for a few days, and then I look forward to the day when you will shine, and I will give you a great reward. ”

In a word, the atmosphere was immediately raised.

The people in the hall all agreed with Emperor Xiaomei's opinion.

ps: The third shift, call it a day, I can finally sleep.
