Chapter 350: Cooperation?
followed Miss Hu'er to a restaurant, the restaurant is nothing special, it just looks gorgeous, it should be one of the most luxurious restaurants in this sword domain, but the Wu family is the master of the sword domain, and it is normal for his young lady to live in such a place, right?
"Please, two!"
When they arrived at a private room, Hu Er pushed open the door, let go of half of his body, and motioned for the two to enter.
Kai...... Elder brother? ”
Miyamoto Musashi is more unfamiliar with Hu'er than Kaiin, so he can come here more because of Kaiin, so he is looking at Kaiin at the moment, waiting for his decision.
"Let's go inside."
It's all here, how can you do it without looking? It just so happened that he also wanted to see what this witch lady was and why he was interested in the two of them. Besides, hasn't he been worrying about how to enter the Wufu Mansion to search for the whereabouts of the gold inscription? At this moment, maybe it's an opportunity.
"Miss, someone brought it!"
Inside the house, there is a screen, behind the screen, a figure can be vaguely seen, no wonder, after all, she is a daughter, that is, she is more restrained, and she should not show her true face.
"Two distinguished guests, please...... Ahem...... Have a seat. ”
On the other side of the screen, there was a somewhat immature voice, listening to the voice, the age should not be as old as Hu'er, but the Hu'er girl is only about twenty, could it be ...... This young lady of the witch family is not yet an adult? And she was coughing violently......
"Miss is seriously ill?"
"It's okay, it's just a few small problems, but it makes the two distinguished guests laugh."
Although the age is young, the world is not born, Miss Wu said, "Two distinguished guests, I took the liberty to invite you here, if there is any disturbance, please forgive me." ”
"It doesn't matter."
Kai Yin looked at the screen, behind the translucent screen, the witch lady seemed to be lying on the bed, looking very sick.
"I just don't know why Miss brought us here?"
"This, Sister Hu'er......"
"Oh, my young lady is inconvenient, so I'll explain it to the two of you."
Miss Hu'er took over and sat down on the other side of the table in the room, there was only one pot of tea and five teacups on the table, and she poured a cup for everyone at first, and then just put down the teapot at this moment, and sat down.
"My young lady invited the two of you to come, in fact, the main thing is to discuss cooperation."
Cooperate?
Kai Yin raised his eyebrows, his face was quite puzzled, and said, "I don't remember any agreement with Miss Gui, but I don't know about cooperation...... Where to start? ”
"I didn't have it before, so why can't I have it in the future?"
Miss Hu'er chuckled and shook her head, saying.
"Then girl, tell me, what can you and I cooperate with?"
It seems that this witch lady has some other intentions? Kai Yin rolled his eyes and quietly picked up the teacup, wanting to hear what they had to say. And Miyamoto Musashi, since he entered the door, sat on the stool, and leaned on the side with Lingwei in his arms, closed his eyes and recuperated, and had no intention of speaking at all.
"Do you remember that today, outside the city gate, you had a conflict with the guards of the Witch Palace?"
"Of course I do."
Kaine nodded, "And thanks to the girl's righteous help, I was able to enter the city smoothly, so I should thank the girl for her help, so that I can avoid a trouble." ”
"Thank you, no need."
Miss Hu'er shook her head slowly, and continued, "This is exactly what the little lady discussed with your guests. ”
"Oh?"
Kai Yin raised his eyebrows, "Miss is a person from the Wufu, the one with a good status, and the one who clashed with the next is the guard of the Wufu, could it be that the two of you are here to hold you accountable?" Ask for an explanation? ”
Of course Kai Yin knows that it shouldn't be, whether it's that single heart or that Ji Wufeng, his attitude towards Hu Er is very bad, as the so-called beating the dog looks at the master, they are like this to Hu Er, presumably to their master, that is, this Miss Wu family, the attitude must be very bad, where does this Miss Wu family have a reason to be angry with them?
"Don't misunderstand, Your Excellency, we're not asking for an explanation for them."
Hu Er hurriedly explained, "My young lady just wants to ...... Just wanted to ......"
Damn, Hu Er originally planned to follow the rules step by step and develop slowly, but this guy made the atmosphere so stiff as soon as he came up, did she say it directly? Still is......
"Sister Hu'er......"
"Okay, your Excellency, since you have asked so, then the little woman will tell the truth."
Sighing with some annoyance, Hu Er put down the teacup, and then said, "It's not a secret, although our Wufu is the master of the Sword Domain on the surface, it is actually divided into two factions, and the two factions are in their own ways, and there is discord everywhere. If it weren't for the fact that the old man was still there, and he was still suppressed, I am afraid that today's Wufu would have already become two mansions, and it is not even certain whether he can continue to display this signboard. ”
"What do you mean, but the master of this witch house, that is, your master, is sick? Injured? And the situation is serious, will he die soon? ”
The word "still there" in Miss Hu'er's mouth is eye-catching.
"Your Excellency."
Hu Er shook his head and smiled bitterly, "That's right, my lord was injured a few years ago, and he fell ill, and the method that has not been treated for all these years has become more and more serious, and it has threatened his life in recent years, and it has been even more ...... Therefore, there is no way, once the master is gone, the witch mansion will inevitably split in half. That's all, but my young lady...... Miss she ......"
"Why, if it's not your dignified young lady, who else can be remembered?"
"Not yet the second uncle of my young lady."
Miss Hu'er said with a wry smile, "That is, the second master of our Wufu, my lord and he are brothers, the lord is the eldest, the second master is the uncle of the young lady, and the root of the old man's illness is the good uncle of the young lady." It's just that he couldn't beat the master at that time, and the master thought of the flesh and blood affection, so he just expelled him from the Sword Domain at that time, but he didn't expect that just half a year ago, he ...... He came back suddenly. And he also recovered from his injuries. The important thing is that the subordinates he left behind before, as well as some of the people in power who are now in charge of the Wufu, saw that the old man was in such a physical condition, and they actually took refuge in him openly and secretly. In this way, if my lord passes away, then my young lady, as the only flesh and blood of the lord, and her second uncle, must ...... I won't let my young lady go. ”
"Since he has returned and learned about your master's physical condition, why don't you just do it? He has already received so much support, what is he afraid of? ”
"That's what he wants to justifiably get the position of head of the family."
Miss Hu'er shook her head helplessly, and said, "There is an offering hall in Wufu, there are three worshippers in it, the old three are windless, and they are already biased towards the second master, but the big offering and the second worship are only recognized by the head of the family, the master is the contemporary head of the family, the master does not agree, and the second master cannot justifiably get the position of the head of the family." So...... He only had a chance to wait until the Wu family's bloodline was cut off by himself...... In addition, he is suspicious of life, and it is true that the old man is sick, but whether he still retains his combat power, and how much power he can exert when the fish dies and the net is broken, no one knows. Rather than taking such a risk, it is better to wait and be safe. ”
"If your lord dies, he will definitely pass on the position of head of the family to his daughter, with the support of the big offering and the second offering, your young lady should also be justified, but what is she looking for me to do? How can I help you? ”
The big offering, the second offering, this worship hall is probably equivalent to the prime minister on the court law, the national teacher and the like, although they can't do the things of the head of the family, but they need their support to sit firmly in the position of the head of the family. But since this offering is divided into precedence, the strength must be the same, the big offering and the second offering, how is it better than the third offering, and the strength should not be lost, this aspect is not at a disadvantage, what do you want outsiders to do?
