Chapter 440: Don't Get in Our Way Here
What's that?
When did I leave a warning letter last night saying that today would pass?
"Is the news true?"
Ryuxia couldn't help but be full of question marks, and asked Fujimaru Rika and a few people for verification.
"It should be true, we also saw the teaser letter that Miss Qingji took out, and what she said in it doesn't look like a lie."
Fujimaru Rikka told Ryuxia about her experience this morning.
As she said, after arriving at the castle tower in the morning, although several samurai were slightly dissatisfied with them, for the sake of her acquaintance with Kiyohime, they were allowed to enter the castle tower, and then unsurprisingly met Kiyohime, and learned the whole process of the attack on Yagyu Tajima Mamoru last night.
After that, Kiyohime handed over the notice sent by the assassin, and then, probably out of the idea of wanting to be close to the man of fate, Kiyohime threw herself directly into the arms of Fujimaru Rika, and asked her to help protect her with a coquettish face.
"The teaser letter seems to have just been sent this morning, and it doesn't say its name, only that it will come to assassinate Qing Ji tonight, and it ends with the signature of 'Heroic Spirit Sword Hero'." Rika Fujimaru recounted to Ryutsu.
“……”
Ryusha was a little silent.
He had never sent any letters, it seemed that it could only be the handwriting of someone else, and the means of sending the advance letter was too fanfare, as if he was afraid that others would not know, and the possibility of the remaining four Heroic Spirit Sword Masters was indeed not small.
"When it comes to the words of the Heroic Spirit Sword Hero, we can't sit idly by, so we agreed to Qing Ji's request."
Fujimaru Rika continued to say to Ryuxia: "But we are worried that if it is really the Heroic Spirit Sword Hero, there may not be enough manpower, so when we come back, we plan to bring Yinshun over, by the way, do you have any plans to go over to help?" ”
“…… It's good to take a trip. ”
Ryuxia only thought about it for a while, and then decided to go to the castle tower with Fujimaru Rika.
Although he was no longer in a hurry to kill the Heroic Spirit Swordsman, if he could know the true purpose of the main messenger behind them through the Heroic Spirit Swordsman, then he could force them out earlier, and the task itself did not conflict with the timing of breaking through the Sword Dao realm.
After everyone called Yinshun to the treasure house, the group went directly to the direction of the castle tower.
…………
"It's you civilians again......"
At the gate of the castle tower, several people met the leader of the group of samurai who had been looking for Kiyohime on the streets of Rustic Castle last time, and when he saw Fujimaru Rika and the others coming, his face was suddenly full of displeasure.
"If you want me to say, the princess shouldn't leave the task of protecting her to you people of unknown origin, we have powerful samurai under the command of Matsudaira Chief!"
He looked very conceited, as if he was proud of his status above everyone as an official samurai.
A slightly helpless look appeared on Fujimaru Ritsuka's face.
Her character is quite generous, and she doesn't care about some emotions and words such as disdain and dissatisfaction, besides, communicating with people in this era is like this, official characters always have a natural sense of superiority, even in modern times, not to mention this feudal antiquity, she has long been psychologically prepared.
She didn't care, and the wind demon Kotaro didn't force his way out, Musashi and Treasure Temple Yinshun were originally characters of this era, and they had long been used to this kind of thing.
"Interesting, wasn't the strongest samurai among you cut off a hand?"
Only Estes looked at the so-called official samurai with a condescending look, his eyes were full of contempt, and the words that came out of his mouth directly hit the other party's death hole.
"What did you say!?"
The other party was poked in the sore foot unexpectedly, and suddenly became angry and angry, and almost didn't do it directly.
Although Musashi and Estes didn't like each other, they almost didn't laugh out loud when they saw this, so they couldn't hold back.
"Let's stop here, this kind of thing is not up to you, if you have an opinion, just say it to your master, don't stand in our way here."
Ryuxia glanced at him indifferently, and then completely ignored his almost angry appearance, and walked towards the castle tower.
Fujimaru Rika sighed a little helplessly, whether it is Ryuxia or Estes, they are not the ones who are willing to suffer, Ryuka is okay to say, she always looks indifferent to nothing, and rarely comments on others, but Estes has a queen-like arrogance in her bones, and not everyone can find her fault.
The samurai watched as several people entered the castle tower, and although they were angry in their hearts, they could only leave in anger.
He really didn't have the power to block the way of a few people, after all, he was able to look down on civilians and wandering samurai, and it was only by virtue of the power of Matsudaira's general guard, and he himself had no power at all.
After entering the castle tower, several people were taken to a living room by the servants.
After a while, Kiyohime's figure appeared in front of several people.
"Man of Destiny!"
As soon as Kiyohime appeared, she immediately stretched out her arms and hugged Fujimaru Rika with an excited and shy face.
"Princess, please pay attention to your identity."
But before she and Fujimaru Rikka could hug, a low cheer came from behind her, and her steps to let go of herself immediately become regular again.
"Yes...... I'm sorry, but Mamori-sama. ”
Then Kiyohime reluctantly turned her head and bowed slightly to Yanagi Zongju behind her.
Although she is a princess of a country, her status is too much worse than that of Yagyu Danma Mamori, who is deeply favored by the shogun, and the other party is the one who leads the shogunate after all.
"But Mamoru Mamoru !"
After Yagyu Soki appeared, including Ryuxia, Musashi, and Fujimaru Ritsuka, they all cast their eyes on each other.
This old man is still dressed up as yesterday, wearing a gray-black samurai uniform, with short silver-gray hair very energetic, the only difference from yesterday is his half-broken left arm, which is wrapped in white yarn at the moment, which looks very inconsistent.
It's just that although he is missing an arm, the look on his face is still as calm and sharp as before, and his mood is not affected by the broken arm at all.
"Thank you for accepting the princess's wayward request and coming to protect the princess."
Yagyu Zongju's gaze swept over several people one by one, and he didn't stop looking at Ryuxia when he saw him, only Musashi stopped for a moment again.
In Ryuxia's perspective, after Yagyu saw Musashi, his heart beat faster for another moment, and then he regained his composure.
"On behalf of Matsudaira Shimomori, I would like to thank you for your contributions, and I am currently leading all the samurai in the castle tower, so I will also send you and assign your respective posts."
