Chapter 22: The Assassination (Part 2)
Because of the advent of the Hundred Battles of Homecoming, something has been changed.
But the inertia of fate is extremely powerful, who knows, whether the Yanagi Shibei will die at the hands of Duan Tianya.
Although, in this life, after Yagyu Shibei met the Hundred Battles of the Returning Sea, he never had the idea of learning from the Crazy Shiro in his heart, and in his heart, the famous Phantom Sword of Dongying was not as good as the guidance of the Hundred Battles of the Returning Sea.
The family heirloom of his Yanagi family is enough for him to learn, plus he can also get guidance from time to time to return to the sea and fight a hundred battles, Yanagi Shibei really didn't want to go over to learn the phantom sword.
In addition, Yagyu Shibei also knew that Guihai Baizhan did not want that person who was arrogant and disregarded the lives of those who were weaker than him because of his strength.
Therefore, although he still treats ordinary people with contempt and considers himself superior, he is not the kind of person who takes people's lives at will and fights with others if he disagrees.
It stands to reason that if Yanagi Shibei doesn't have the idea of learning the Phantom Sword, then there will be no conflict with Duan Tianya.
But fate, who can tell.
Returning to the sea and reminding Liu Sheng Dan Ma Shou that he just didn't want the Liu Sheng family to have any bad consequences because he didn't know Duan Tianya's true identity and didn't deal with it properly.
Under the reminder of the return to the sea and the hundred battles, Yagyu Danma Mamoru also began to notice his eldest daughter, Yanagi Yukihime.
After he knew that Liu Sheng Xueji and Duan Tianya were in love, he was angry, and he had a feeling that the Chinese cabbage he had raised for many years was about to be arched by pigs.
In particular, the other party is still a disciple of the Yin He faction who does not deal with him, and he is also a native of the Central Plains.
However, Duan Tianya's identity still made him have some scruples, and he had the admonition of returning to the sea for a hundred battles, so Liu Sheng but Ma Shou did not mean to kill Duan Tianya.
However, this does not mean that he will be willing to see his daughter fall in love with Duan Tianya.
Then, Yagyu Tajima Mamoru went into action.
He always took his daughter Yanagi Xueji with him and didn't let her leave his sight for too long and too far, which also made Yanagi Xueji have no time and space for a private meeting with Duan Tianya.
Not only that, but Yanagi Danma Mamoru also frequently takes his daughter Yanagi Yukihime to meet the children of various families, all of whom are extremely good rising stars in Dongying, and they all have one thing in common, that is, they are not yet married.
It didn't take long for Yukihime Yagyu to understand his father's intentions.
He was looking for a partner for her, preparing to marry her off or choose a handsome man to join her.
This made Yanagi Yukihime very panicked for a while, she didn't dare to disobey her father's order, but it didn't mean that she would accept her father's arrangement.
It was also at this time that Yanagi Piaofu became the little messenger between Yanagi Xueji and Duan Tianya.
The contact between the two is all carried out through Yanagi Piaofu.
There was no way, Yanagi Xueji had no chance to leave her father's sight to meet Duan Tianya privately, so she could only ask her sister to help deliver the message.
Duan Tianya also knew the predicament that Yanagi Xueji was facing now.
However, there was nothing he could do.
Fortunately, Yanagi but Ma Shou has no intention of forcing his daughter to marry now. Yukihime Yanagi is still trying to hold on.
As the days passed, Duan Tianya and Yanagi Xueji passed the envelope through Yanagi Piaofu to achieve lovesickness, which made the relationship between the two more and more intense.
This may be something that Yanagi but Mamoru couldn't have imagined.
At the same time, in this process, Duan Tianya inadvertently met Sleepy Shiro, and after knowing that Sleepy Shiro's phantom sword was alone in the Dongying Martial Arts, he had the idea of apprenticeship.
In Dongying, one thing that is very different from the Central Plains is that one person can worship many masters.
Although they are all the same, you must respect the teacher, but as long as others are willing to have the ability with yourself, you can learn different things from different masters in Dongying.
However, in the Central Plains, a person can only worship one master, and if he changes to worship someone else's disciple halfway, it is a deviant behavior.
Duan Tianya has been in Dongying for a few years, and he has already adapted to Dongying's unspoken social rules.
That's why he came up with the idea of apprenticeship to Shiro.
The result was also very smooth, after secretly investigating Duan Tianya, Sleepy Shiro found that this person had no evil deeds, and his temperament was pure, and he also had a plan to accept apprentices.
It's just that Duan Tianya's identity still makes him hesitate.
In the end, he decided to give Duan Tianya a chance.
Under the questioning of Sleeping Maniac Shiro, Duan Tianya hesitated for a moment, and then calmly told himself the identity of the Ming people.
For Duan Tianya's honesty, Sleepy Shiro was very satisfied, because when he was secretly investigating, he found many doubts about Duan Tianya's identity, and suspected that Duan Tianya was not from Dongying.
Since Duan Tianya was able to tell him calmly, he could be regarded as having passed his first test.
Then, in order to verify whether Duan Tianya was a person who cared about the people, Sleep Maniac Shiro asked Duan Tianya to kill an official who was unkind.
Although Shiro is the top master of Toei, his background is not very good, and he has always been very hostile to officials and nobles who ignore the people.
If it weren't for the fact that many top masters from noble backgrounds were staring at him, he would have already killed those officials and nobles he did not hesitate to kill.
The appearance of Duan Tianya is tantamount to another way, and it can also test Duan Tianya.
Duan Tianya was not in a hurry to agree to Sleepy Shiro's request, but asked Sleepy Crazy Shiro to give him some time and let him investigate whether the official who Sleepy Shiro asked him to kill was really an unkind dog official.
If not, even if he couldn't learn the Phantom Sword, he wouldn't have killed anyone.
This also made Sleepy Shiro appreciate Duan Tianya even more and agreed to Duan Tianya's request.
After Duan Tianya went down, he began to investigate, and after determining that the Dongying official to be assassinated was a vicious dog official, he began to formulate an assassination plan.
He couldn't have imagined that he would kill Duan Tianya, but it was because of this assassination that he had a grudge with the Liu Sheng Xinyin faction.
Because the target of Duan Tianya's assassination turned out to be an official of the shogunate family, and the Yanagi family is now ostensibly leaning towards the shogunate, coupled with the fame of the Yanagi Xinyin faction, many officials of the shogunate are asking the samurai of the Yanagi Xinyin faction to protect themselves.
Especially like Lord Ishihara, the target of Duan Tianya's assassination, he knew that he was not treated well by the people, and he was often assassinated by folk samurai ronin.
He spent a lot of money to hire a master of the Yanagi Xinyin Sect to protect him.
Of course, in this life, the master of the Yagyu Shinyin faction who protects this Lord Ishihara is not Yagyu Shibei, it's not that he doesn't spend enough hired money, but with the Yagyu family secretly supported by Guihai Baizhan, it has grown so strong that it is not allowed to ask the heir of the family to do the work of bodyguards in person, after all, it is too much of a loss of identity.
