The castle lord hesitated, none of his subordinates could discuss, but the owner who opened a hot spring hotel in Aichi Prefecture had some knowledge.

Now he urgently needed someone to give him ideas, so he still handed the letter in his hand to Tang Ping.

"Don't you want money?" After reading the letter, Tang Ping said a little strangely.

The contents of the letter were simple, but unlike what they had thought at first, the other party did not ask for money, but asked the lord of the city to go alone at night according to the address they had written.

Then he looked at the city lord and said, "So their target is actually the city lord!" ”

The city lord nodded, and after being silent for a long time, he finally said, "Thank you for today's matter, let me handle the rest by myself." ”

After finishing speaking, he was about to issue an eviction order, Tang Ping could only say tentatively when he saw this: "It was Lord Inugami Mita who asked us to come." ”

"What?" Even if his daughter disappeared, he had always been a calm city lord, his hand shook slightly, and then he propped himself up on the edge of the table behind him.

Looking at his reaction, Tang Ping knew that he had found the right person.

"You go down first." The city lord waved his hand and asked his subordinates to leave, then looked at Tang Ping and asked, "Is it really Lord Inugami Mita who asked you to come?" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Tang Ping to answer, he replied by himself: "Also, no one should know that I am still living in Aichi Prefecture except him." ”

"Isn't your lord Emperor Suiko's chamberlain? How to ......"

"You want to ask me how I became the lord of the city, right?" The city lord smiled bitterly: "I knew too many secrets back then, and Su I Ezo wanted to kill me, and I was already prepared." At that time, the imperial court was preparing to canonize the declining Sakamoto family Sakamoto as the lord of Aichi County, and I have a copy of the report that Sakamoto Kerumoto was killed by bandits when he entered Nara to report on his duties. ”

"So I secretly destroyed the report, that is, I planned to take office in Aichi Prefecture under the pseudonym Narisakamoto Keimoto, but I was still one step too late, and I was assassinated by the Shino of the Soga clan. Fortunately, I was rescued by Inu-sama when I was dying.,But at that time, the Soga clan was too powerful.,If I told Inugami-sama that secret.,Inu-sama would also be worried about my life.。 ”

The castle lord with the pseudonym Sakamoto Keimoto continued to recall: "Later, when my injuries were a little better, I asked Inu-sama to send me to Aichi Prefecture, and then I paid someone to live in the residence that Inu-sama arranged for me, and I myself pretended to be Sakamoto Keimoto. Even the Soga clan knew that I wasn't dead, and they would never have imagined that I would become the lord of the castle in Aichi Prefecture. ”

"Not long after I became the lord of the city, in order to hide my identity as a chamberlain, I found an orphan girl and said that she was my daughter."

"Wait, you said Zhi Neng?" The eldest brother of the mountain, the king, called Sakamoto Keimoto and asked.

"Yes, it was the Su I clan who assassinated me at that time."

Tang Ping asked a little puzzled: "What is this Zhi Neng?" ”

The eldest brother of the mountain, Wang, said: "My father has a big companion by his side, and he is a secret unit founded by my father. ”

Then the eldest brother of the mountain back Wang explained, and Tang Ping was surprised to find that the Zhi Neng Ben in his mouth was actually the prototype of the Fuso ninja.

Although there are no bells and whistles in ninjutsu, the things they do are basically what ninjas described in later generations do.

Tang Ping's conjecture is indeed not wrong, Prince Shotoku has the reputation of "Eight-Eared Prince", because of the Zhi Nengbian led by the secret agent of the Great Companion, he can grasp the news from the princes and nobles to the peddlers and pawns.

It's just that I don't know how this Zhineng fell into the hands of the Su My clan after he died.

Sakamoto Keiyuan was also very surprised when he knew the identity of the eldest brother of Yamashi: "Back then, I told Inu-sama that if you can overthrow the Su I clan and come to me again, now it seems that you are ready for this." ”

The eldest brother of the mountain, Wang, nodded and said: "The Suga clan has committed many evil deeds, and the world of Fuso can no longer be controlled by such people, so I also ask Lord Sakamoto Keiyuan to help me." ”

Sakamoto Keiyuan looked at the eldest brother of the mountain, took out a bunch of keys from his arms and handed them to him: "I don't know what will happen to me after tonight, with this key, you can open the dark compartment under the bed I slept in, and there are things you want in it." ”

Tang Ping read the letter again, and then asked, "Is it possible that these people are also here for these things?" ”

Sakamoto Keigen said with some disbelief: "My identity has been kept secret, how can they know?" ”

"There is no impermeable wall in this world." Tang Ping shook his head and said, "Otherwise, I can't explain why they just found you and used your daughter to force you to go alone." ”

Sakamoto Keimoto laughed miserably: "No matter what they are for, I can't let Rumiko be hurt." ”

For so many years, he has long regarded Rumiko as his own daughter, so he made up his mind to save his daughter Rumiko even if he was personally involved in danger.

"Tonight, I think we can think about it in the long run." Tang Ping looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the eldest brother king of the mountain: "How about you pretending to be the lord of Sakamoto City?" ”

"Me?" The eldest brother of the mountain back looked at himself, and then looked at the city lord of Sakamoto: "The city lord is taller and fatter than me, I'm afraid I can't hide it from others, right?" ”

He also saw that only he and Sakamoto Qingyuan were similar in figure, and the others, whether they were Lao Cui Lao Du or Li Bai Tang Ping, were much taller.

"It's because you're thinner and shorter that you can pretend to be the lord of Sakamoto Castle."

"No!" Before Tang Ping finished speaking, he was interrupted by Sakamoto Keiyuan: "Since the prince of Yamabei is the candidate for the emperor chosen by Lord Inujo, how can he risk his life for Rumiko?" ”

"Why not?" The eldest brother of the mountain, the king, asked strangely: "If a monarch can't even save a single common person or is unwilling to save it, how can he save this country?" ”

Sakamoto Keiyuan was stunned for a moment by the words of the eldest brother of the mountain, and then said with relief: "No wonder Lord Inugami would choose the current prince of the mountainback." ”

Tang Ping smiled and reassured the two: "It's because the prince of the mountain back is smaller, so he can wear the protective clothing we prepared for him, don't worry, we are behind to protect him, it's okay." ”

This Sakamoto Qingyuan's force value is simply 0, although the big brother of the mountain back is at most a battle scumbag, but at least he can hold on a little more.

The other party asked Sakamoto to go out alone, there must be their eyeliner along the way, if he wanted to go in person, Tang Ping was really afraid that he would be solved by others at once.

I got a set of stab-proof clothing and wrapped it tightly in the back of the mountain, but the back of the mountain was unimpressed at first, but after cutting it twice with Lao Cui's long knife, I was reluctant to take it off again.

and pestered Tang Ping, he must give him this set of clothes.
