Nana Hashimoto looked at Xiao Ju who was packing up the salute, Ruodie stood beside her with Xiao Nanai in her arms, she was a little relieved and suddenly a little reluctant.

It's finally going to leave Odawara Castle.,Nana Hashimoto has a little reluctance at this time.,After all, I've lived here for more than half a year.,My daughter was also born here.,There are some feelings.,When you really want to leave.,There's always a little reluctance.。

Xiao Ju put Nanami Hashimoto's clothes into the box one by one, her eyes were a little red, and Xiao Ju also had a lot of reluctance in her heart for Nanami Hashimoto, a kind lady. The relationship between day and night is not so easy to give up. Xiao Ju wiped the tears that she was about to leave behind, and said to Nanami Hashimoto: "Madam, it's a long way to Kyoto, please take care of your health, Madame, Xiao Ju will pray for Madame in front of the gods and Buddhas." ”

Xiao Ju's words made Nanami Hashimoto a little sad, and after chuckling, he took Xiao Ju's hand and said to her: "Xiao Ju, don't be so sad, I have asked Mrs. Yangzhuyuan to take care of you, after I leave, you have to take care of yourself, if you have time, I will come back to see you." Although Nana Hashimoto comforted Xiao Ju like this, she knew clearly in her heart that when she left, I am afraid that there will never be a time to say goodbye to Xiao Ju.

Although Xiao Ju herself knew this, she still believed that Nana Hashimoto would not come back to see her, nodded seriously and said, "Madame, please rest assured, Xiao Ju will take care of herself, and she will definitely wait for the day when Madame comes back to see Xiao Ju." Xiao Ju didn't have too many ideas in her heart, all she could do was to stick to this agreement.

A sad smile also appeared on Nanami Hashimoto's face, took Xiaoju's hand, and said to her, "Then we have an agreement, I will definitely come back to see you!" Looking at Xiao Ju's eyes believing her, Nana Hashimoto secretly made up her mind in her heart that no matter what, she would come back to see Xiao Ju again.

Seeing that Nana Hashimoto was still reluctant to give up with Xiaoju, Ruodie had to remind her: "Madam, it's not too early, it's time for us to leave." Although Wakadie is reluctant to urge Nanami Hashimoto like this, in this era, if the trigger time is delayed, it is very likely that he will need to sleep in the wild. Although Nanami Hashimoto and Wakadie are not worried about safety, it is better to avoid sleeping in the wild as much as possible.

Hearing Ruodie's reminder, Xiao Ju hurriedly let go of Nanami Hashimoto's hand, wiped her tears and said to Nanami Hashimoto: "Madam, Xiao Ju doesn't dare to delay your trip, please leave as soon as possible, Xiao Ju will take care of herself, please don't worry." I wish you a smooth journey, Xiao Ju Gong Madame. After speaking, Xiao Ju knelt on the ground and made a big bow to Nanami Hashimoto.

"Hurry up, what are you doing with so many courtesies!" Nana Hashimoto hurriedly helped Xiao Ju up from the ground, but she also knew that it was indeed time for her to go, so she could only nod to Xiao Ju and said, "Then I'm going to go, Xiao Ju, you have to take care!" After saying that, he took Qiu Yumaru's hand and walked towards the door with Ruodie, while several attendants standing outside the door walked in quickly, picked up Nanami Hashimoto's luggage, and walked out after her.

Xiaoju did not continue to follow Nanami Hashimoto, her identity did not allow her to say goodbye to Nanami Hashimoto, and finally she knelt in the room with tears in her eyes, and made a big bow in the direction of Nanami Hashimoto's departure, reluctant to get up for a long time, which was also the only way she could express her feelings.

Nana Hashimoto, who left, did not look back and saw Xiao Ju kneeling on the ground with tears, and after waving at her reluctantly, he walked out of the gate of the Odawara Castle Tower and walked towards the carriage parked outside the door.

Next to the carriage, the Hojo family, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw that Nanami Hashimoto had finally come out, and they all hurriedly greeted him.

"Mrs. Chiba, I don't know when we will see each other again this time, please have time in the future, and come to Odawara Castle as a guest again, and the Hojo family will be waiting for you." As the head of the Hojo family, the Hojo clan took the lead in speaking to Nanami Hashimoto. Although he doubted Nanami Hashimoto's identity at first, but then Nanami Hashimoto helped the Hojo family solve the crisis caused by the autumn rain pill, the Hojo clan was grateful to Nanami Hashimoto from the bottom of his heart.

The pearl house on the side also said to Nanami Hashimoto: "Mrs. Chiba, the Hojo family did not entertain well this time, and please do a lot of Haihan." For the departure of Nanami Hashimoto, Yangzhuyuan felt fortunate on the one hand, at least Hojo Shiyasu would no longer be infatuated with this Mrs. Chiba, but on the other hand, she also felt a little ashamed that she was in such a hurry to send people away, so she said to Nanami Hashimoto: "Mrs. Chiba, in order to express my apologies, the concubine has prepared some small gifts, and please don't dislike it." ”

After speaking, Yangzhuyuan waved her hand, and the maid behind her walked over with two silk horses, and Hashimoto Nanami looked at these two brightly colored silks, and hurriedly excused herself: "Madame is too polite, such a valuable gift for the little girl can't be accepted." Nana Hashimoto did not see that these two silks were very exquisite in color and workmanship, and they were already very valuable gifts in this era.

"Where did Mrs. say that, it's just two horses of Dango silk, if it weren't for the Ming Kingdom Silk Odawara Castle really didn't have it, I would give Mrs. Ming Kingdom silk, it was the best product for making summer clothes. However, although the tango silk is only produced in Japan, it is not bad, these two silk ladies can be used to make winter clothes for your daughter in the future, presumably able to dress up the little Nana is not beautiful, do you say it is not a little Nanawei? Yangzhuyuan said this, and teased Xiao Nanaiwei, who was held in Ruodie's arms, and made her giggle.

Nana Hashimoto didn't see Yangzhuyuan say this, so she had to nod helplessly, accepted this expensive gift, and then said to her: "Since Madame is so gracious, the little girl has no choice but to be disrespectful." In the future, if the lady can come to Kyoto, please be sure to come to this Taisha to meet with the little girl, so that the little girl can enjoy the friendship of the landlord. ”

"Then when I have time in the future, the concubine will definitely go to Kyoto to visit Madame." Only then did Yangzhuin smile and nodded, looked at Hojo Shiyasu behind him, who wanted to speak and stopped, and finally sighed, pulled the sleeve of Hojo Shizuna, pulled him aside, and gave Hojo Shiyasu a chance to talk to Nana Hashimoto alone.

"Mrs. Chiba, in the next ......" Standing in front of Nanami Hashimoto, after a few words of Hojo Clan's Kang, some didn't know how to speak, Hashimoto Nana looked at Hojo's Clanyasu, and at this time realized that he was the same age as his younger brother, so he covered his mouth and chuckled: "Mr. Clankang, for this period of time, thank you for your care, otherwise, I really don't know what to do alone, thank you very much, little girl." ”

Nana Hashimoto didn't finish speaking, and bowed to Hojo Yasu, sincerely thanking him for his care and concern for him during this time. Seeing Nana Hashimoto saluting him, Hojo Shiyasu hurriedly wanted to reach out and help her up, but when his hand touched Nana Hashimoto's clothes, he took his hand back again, and the expression on his face was a little lonely.

Hojo knew that after this parting, he would never see Nanami Hashimoto again, which made his heart full of sadness. After hesitating for a moment, Hojo Shiyasu finally took out a thing wrapped in white paper from his arms, handed it to Nanami Hashimoto and said: "Farewell today, I don't know when I will see Mrs. again, this thing was found together when I met Mrs. that day, and I don't know if it is Mrs.'s thing." Originally, I wanted to keep it as a souvenir, but after thinking about it, I would better give it to my wife. ”

Nana Hashimoto did not take the paper package handed over by Hojo Shiyasu, and after opening it, he found that the white paper was wrapped in the lost snow. Looking at the lost and recovered snow, Nana Hashimoto said with surprise: "This is the little girl's hairpin, I thought it had been lost, but I didn't expect it to be recovered, Mr. Shikang, thank you for being able to get it back." ”

"It turned out to be really a lady's thing, and it's great to be able to return it to its original owner." A smile appeared on Hojo Shiyasu's face, but the loneliness between his brows made Nana Hashimoto frown without looking at it, and finally said to him: "Mr. Shikang, your heart for the little girl, the little girl has always been very clear, but the little girl has already married a woman, so she has to live up to your heart." ”

Hearing Nana Hashimoto say this, Hojo Shiyasu's face turned pale, and he was about to speak: "Mrs. Chiba, I ......"

Nana Hashimoto did not raise his hand to stop what Hojo Shikang was about to say, with a helpless smile on his face, he said to Hojo Shiyasu: "Mr. Shikang, the little girl is not your good match, you are the young master of the Hojo family, and you will inherit the entire Hojo family in the future and rule the entire Musashi country, please put more of your mind on if you are a qualified daimyo, the little girl is really not worth your effort, it is absolutely impossible between you and me." ”

Nanami Hashimoto's words made Hojo Shiyasu feel a bitterness in his mouth, but even so, he still asked with some reluctance: "Mrs. Chiba, what if...... If I had met you first, and you hadn't married your husband, would you have accepted your wishes? After saying that, Hojo Shiyasu looked at Nanami Hashimoto with some expectation, which may have been his last extravagant hope.

However, even so, Nanami Hashimoto finally shook his head in Hojo's expectant eyes and said to him: "Mr. Shiyasu's question, the little girl can't answer it, because the little girl has already determined that the little girl's husband is the only partner of the little girl in this life. As for the words that the little girl knew Mr. Shi Kang before she met her husband, I am afraid that the little girl will not be able to answer this question, because the little girl does not know the answer, maybe she will, or maybe not, this is just speculation, Mr. Shi Kang, what you should do is to cherish everything you have now. ”

Hearing Nanami Hashimoto's words, the expression on Hojo's face became a little stunned, and finally he sighed, nodded and said to Nanami Hashimoto: "What Mrs. Chiba taught is that she is indeed too persistent. In this case, I wish Mrs. a smooth journey, and I beg your pardon to send it not far away. I just wonder if there will be a chance to see Mrs. again in the future? ”

"What difference does it make to see or not to see? If Mr. Shi Kang can't let go, seeing the little girl will only add to the troubles, if he can let go, what is the difference between seeing and not seeing? If there is fate, there will naturally be a day when we meet. The smile on Nanami Hashimoto's face revealed a sense of indifference, which made the sadness in Hojo's heart seem to be diluted a lot.

After finally saying goodbye to the Hojo family, Nanami Hashimoto got into a carriage and slowly left Odawara Castle under the escort of a team of samurai sent by the Hojo clan. Looking at the carriage in the distance, Hojo Shiyasu stood at the head of Odawara Castle, unwilling to leave for a long time until he could no longer see it.

On the carriage, Qiu Yumaru, who was taken by Nanami Hashimoto, was already asleep, and Ruodie sat aside with little Nanami in her arms, watching Nanami Hashimoto play with the hairpin in her hand, and asked Nanami Hashimoto with some curiosity: "Madam, if you don't meet your master, will you consider accepting Mr. Hojo's wishes?" The little girl can see that he is sincere to you, Mrs. If Madame, you really met this Mr. Hojo Yasushi before you met your master, would you think about it? ”

Nana Hashimoto showed a wry smile on her face, shook her head and said to Ruodie, "Ruodie, have you forgotten?" I come from 500 years later, and what is happening now is history that cannot be changed for me. The historical Hojo clan would eventually become the head of the Hojo family, the mighty Kanto, known as the Sagami Lion. Four years later, he would marry his main family, Ruixiin, the daughter of the Imagawa clan of the Imagawa family, and the two married each other, and eventually had seven sons and five daughters, a total of twelve children. ”

"What about you, ma'am? Isn't there a name for you and your master in history five hundred years later? The first time she heard Nana Hashimoto talk about the future, Ruodie asked curiously, she really wanted to know if there was a name of her master in the future history.

However, to Wakadie's disappointment, Nanami Hashimoto shook her head: "Qianye is too mysterious, there is no record of him in history at all, even in the records of Abe Harumi in the Heian period, there is no record of his existence." Maybe it's because of his immortality, if people know that people in history are still alive, it may cause him trouble. ”

"And what about yourself, ma'am?" Although Ruodie felt a little disappointed, thinking of her master's temper, she still nodded understandingly, and looked at Nanami Hashimoto angrily.

"Me? I didn't leave much in history, but I did leave something for myself, like this. Nana Hashimoto didn't speak, showing the hairpin in her hand to Wakadie.
