The convoy entered the city and soon settled into a compound.

This is Oda Heizo's property in Kyoto.

Although the daimyo had their own territory, in Kyoto, any daimyo had to be restrained, follow the rules, and if they wanted a place to live, they had to spend money to buy land and buy a house, and it was impossible to sleep where they wanted to sleep in their own territory.

"Now that the news of Horikoshi's death has reached the ears of the lord of the country, maybe I'll be summoned today."

Zhou Ming's words obviously failed to make Oda Heizou relax, he was still worried, and he couldn't think of a proper solution to this matter.

In his opinion, Zhou Ming's act of killing Hori Yuechuang so recklessly was simply roasting him on the fire, but he didn't have anything to do.

And when everyone was watching at the gate of the city, everyone knew that Zhou Ming was his samurai, and the two of them had been bound together, even if Oda Heizou wanted to clear up his relationship with Zhou Ming, no one would believe it.

"It's just Horikoshi, with my identity, the lord of the country shouldn't do anything to me, I'm afraid that those bastards will take advantage of people's danger and fall into the well and stab them in the back, then it's troublesome."

Oda Heizou said "those bastards", you don't have to think about it to know who they are, besides other daimyos, who else will be described by Oda Heizou like this?

Diametrically opposed to Oda Heizou's reaction, it was Zhou Ming, who was a good wanderer, practicing unhurriedly and practicing the sword style, while waiting for the news he wanted to come to the door.

Inside the Royal Palace.

Hirakawa Taisho walked through the entrance courtyard and entered a spacious dormitory, and the palace maid dressed in tulle led him to the bed, on the three-meter-long solid wood bed, the curtains and green curtains were fluttering, and a graceful figure loomed.

"Your Majesty."

Hirakawa was kneeling in front of the big bed and bowed his head.

"Hirakawa-kun." An old voice came from the bed, tinged with a rotten and dusty twilight.

The heavy curtains were lifted layer by layer, and an old man who was skinny and skinny, with deep eye sockets like skeletons, and exuded a strong dead air all over his body, sat up with the support of three palace maids, and looked at Hirakawa Taisho with a pair of dim eyes.

Momonosuke Nohara, the "Demon King" who unified the island country of Tosho and opened the moonlight era.

"Your Majesty, Horikoshi is dead." Hirakawa Taimasa's body was motionless, still raising his head, and said in a deep voice.

"I already know." Momonosuke Nohara took a few breaths of breath very hard, and said with difficulty: "That little guy, the one who killed Hori Yuechuang, is called Zhou Ming, right?" Very funny little guy, ahem, ahem! ”

"Your Majesty, please take care of yourself." Hirakawa Taimasa took a few steps forward in a kneeling position and said worriedly.

"I'm fine." Several palace maids patted their backs and stroked their chests, so that Nohara Momonosuke's breathing gradually calmed down, and insisted on saying: "Oda Heizo, that guy, let him come to see me, take that little guy, I want to see him with my own eyes, I want to ...... I will reward him. ”

"Yes!" Hirakawa Taisho did not hesitate to receive the order.

Leaving the dormitory, Hirakawa Taimasa walked towards the outside of the palace, still involuntarily thinking about the funny appearance of Horikoshi's headless body and head on the side, which was really ridiculous.

Especially seeing Momonosuke Nohara's reaction to Horikoshi's death made Hirakawa Daisho want to laugh even more.

"Horikoshi, that idiot, think Your Majesty really favors you? Your death will not even make Your Majesty feel the slightest anger! ”

"Idiot, the person Your Majesty trusts the most is always me Hirakawa Taisho!"

As Momonosuke Nohara's personal bodyguard, Hirakawa Taisho has always believed in this. It's just that Nohara Momonosuke's favor for Hori Yuechuang some time ago made him feel a sense of crisis for a while.

He thinks that is an emotion that should not be had, His Majesty has always trusted him, this is an undoubted thing, why does he have a sense of crisis because of a Horikoshi Sora?

He had deeply blamed and feared for this, but fortunately, with the death of Horikoshi, all undue emotions were gone.

"Zhou Ming, dare to kill Horikoshitron at the gate of Kyoto City, what kind of person are you?"

Hirakawa Taisho's eyes narrowed slightly, and he strode out of the palace gate.

His loyalty to His Majesty is unquestionable, and His Majesty's trust in him is unquestionable.

No one can shake it, no one!

……

"Zhou Jun!"

In the courtyard, Zhou Ming was refining the true yuan in his body, and Oda Heizou suddenly walked over with a serious expression.

"The lord of the country summoned me to the palace, and ......" he stared at Zhou Ming, with a hint of surprise on his serious face, "The lord of the country wants to see you by name." ”

"Let's go, then." Zhou Ming smiled faintly and stood up calmly.

Zhou Ming's composure made Oda Heizou even more surprised.

"Why aren't you surprised at all, as if you knew in advance that the kingdom was going to see you?" Oda Heizou couldn't help but ask.

"I guess."

"......" Oda Heizou felt that he was being fooled by Zhou Ming as a fool.

"Actually, the reason is very simple." Zhou Ming glanced back at Oda Heizo, smiled slightly, walked by himself, and explained casually:

"Because I have enough strength to ensure that even if Momonosuke Nohara is angry, whether it is ordering me to be arrested and executed or sending troops to surround and suppress me, I have the strength to survive, escape, fight back, or kill directly into the palace."

"My strength is strong enough, so I don't need so many scruples to do things."

"Moreover, since Momonosuke Nohara can hold the world's No. 1 samurai conference, how can he be willing to kill me before the conference starts?"

Oda Heizou was dumbfounded when he heard it, only to feel that Zhou Ming's words were too bold, deviant, and arrogant, and he was simply too arrogant!

So much so that he even skipped the fact that Zhou Ming called the name of "Momonosuke Nohara".

"When are we going to see him, now?" After not taking a few steps, Zhou Ming sounded this question again and hurriedly asked.

“…… No, after two hours, wait for the lord of the kingdom to have lunch. ”

"yes, it's noon, and it's time for us to eat." Zhou Ming suddenly realized: "Eat first, eat first, I'll see what special dishes Kyoto has, can you arrange it?" ”

"Okay, okay." Oda Heizou nodded helplessly, and suddenly felt so tired.

At the same time, the west gate of Kyoto Castle.

A team of more than 300 people approached the foot of the city gates.

The two people who were guarded by the guards in the middle, a middle-aged man riding a jujube red horse, with a square face, exuding the majesty of the superior who soaked into his bones; A young man rode a black horse, with cold eyebrows and a tall posture, and the whole person was like an unsheathed knife, which was pressing.

The middle-aged man looked up at the city wall, an expression full of emotion appeared on his face, and he called softly: "Kyoto...... I'm back again. ”

With a sigh of emotion, he turned his head and set his eyes on the young man with admiration.

"Dashi-kun, next, this is the stage where you will be a blockbuster!"
