Ouchi Jiaoyou turned around without hesitation, bowed to Chongwen and said, "Your Highness Da Chuhai, my eldest sister Nonghime is destined to take you as a mentor and friend, and she will not change her life, which is exactly what I want." He pulled out the saber at his waist and put it in front of him, gently pushed it in front of Chongwen, and said: "This is Zhou Wanyi's sword, it is my portable saber, and now it is given to His Royal Highness Dachuhai, don't dislike it, how can a samurai not wear a sword." ”

Chongwen wanted to laugh out loud, this little guy is really cute, he has no blade on his body, and he has not fallen. Now that there is a knife in his hand, the spirit of the whole person is different, the knife is the guts of the aunt thief, this is really true.

He gently grabbed the scabbard with his left hand, did not examine the blade, looked at Ouchi and said, "There is nothing to grow in the lower body, and there is nothing to give." However, it seems to me that the gift that Saburo has given me today is much more valuable than all the gold and silver in the city combined, and I will repay you with ten times more glory in the future. ”

Hearing the eldest sister's translation, Ouchi's eyes bulged out, isn't it just a knife, as for the gratitude of Lingcheng.

Nohime smiled and said to Ouchi Jiaoyou: "Saburo, you have made great luck, what kind of person His Royal Highness is the Great Expedition, what kind of person he says, he will definitely do it." ”

Ouchi Kyoyu stumbled and asked Nonghime: "But... But why is that, just for a knife?"

Nonghime smiled and said: "When you grow up, you will understand, the things that the great heroes value are different from ordinary people, and their affection is heavier than the mountain." She turned her head and said to Chongwen with a smile: "I also want to give His Highness the same gift as Da Chuhai, I hope I don't dislike it." ”

Chongwen put the saber on his belt, the last trace of uneasiness in his heart disappeared, and he said with a smile: "Today is an auspicious day, do you have to give gifts, I am poor to death, and there is no gift in return." ”

Nongji smiled but didn't answer, clapped her hands gently, the wooden door behind her opened, and a maid held a snack table in front of Chongwen. Chongwen looked down, and for a while felt that he was overwhelmed by full happiness, and almost burst into tears.

It is a bowl of noodles with a small dish of soy sauce, a small plate of pickled soybeans, and a small plate of kimchi next to it.

This is an ordinary bowl of buckwheat noodles, but since he left Dakang, he has never smelled the wheat fragrance again. This is the country of rice, and it is a country of rice, that is, there is not a grain of wheat to be found, and there is not a grain of buckwheat to be found. Chongwen couldn't imagine where Nohime found the buckwheat flour, and in the country of Qi, maybe this bowl of soba noodles was more expensive than gold.

Just for him to be happy for a moment, what kind of affection is this.

Apparently, the chef doesn't know how to make noodles, and the noodles vary in thickness and can only be made with soy sauce and simple side dishes. Chongwen suppressed his excitement, slowly poured the accessories into the noodles, picked up the slender wooden chopsticks and mixed them gently, and then picked up two and put them in his mouth to chew gently, enjoying this rare meal.

The servants were mainly wooden buildings, and if they were the houses of the powerful and powerful, there would be security shrines hidden on the wooden walls, and one or two samurai could be hidden. In Fangjin City, the son of Huashan Zijiu once hid in the security shrine and attacked Chongwen, if it weren't for Chongwen's armor, then he would have to be hit hard.

In order to breathe and observe the outside world, there is a grille on the face height, and it seems that Chongwen and Nonghime are not as cramped as imagined when they sit inside. Nohime gently pushed the door open, and darkness shrouded the inside of the alcove, and the only connection to the outside world was a few gaps in the grille.

A few rays of light came in, reflecting on the faces of the two people, between light and dark, the eyebrows and eyes could be vaguely seen, and heavy breathing could be heard in the niche. The two looked at each other and smiled, Chongwen gently shook Nonghime's hand, and at the tense moment when Jeon Ya's future was decided, this corner was full of beautiful scenery.

Looking at the tea room opposite through the wooden grille, this is a luxurious tea room where tea parties are held, and it is very spacious and spacious, unlike Yoshihiro Ouchi's small and warm private tea room. The wood is all golden silk nan wood material, with a unique fragrance, the four walls are hung with precious celebrity calligraphy and paintings, and from the perspective of Chongwen, you just see a cursive script opposite.

Chongwen can't imagine that this is actually the Central Plains Daoxian Bai Yuchan's "Four Words Poems" hundreds of years ago, judging from the handsome and clear penmanship, it seems to be a genuine work. There is a "Zuxuan Ming Scroll" by Bai Yuchan in the Qianqing Palace in Nanjing, and Chongwen is very familiar with the essence of his calligraphy, and it is unlikely that he will look away.

On the side of the "Four Words Poems" is the "Bamboo Insect Picture" by Zhao Chang of the Song Dynasty, which is not ordinary. Chongwen shook his head and sighed secretly, this Ouchi Yoshihiro is really powerful, how he got the Chinese treasure to the country, it is really incomprehensible.

Nohime felt his breathing shortened, and said softly: "The Ouchi family has been connected to the sea for a hundred years, and this is a collection of several generations, and Yamaguchi Castle was not built in a day. ”

Chongwen sighed: "It seems that I still underestimate the Ouchi family." ”

Nongji smiled slightly, and said, "Did you see that tea with that tea? That's Tang Wu, named Narashiba Shoulder Chong, and this is the only one in the whole family." For this tea set, the Kamiya clan, the first wealthy merchant in Kitakyushu in Hakata Port, was destroyed, and the powerful friends of Kyushu took it by skill, and finally my father conquered Kyushu and took this treasure into his hands. In the country, you can't keep any treasure without strength. ”

Chongwen nodded secretly, stopped talking, and continued to observe the tea room. The tea room has been laid out with all kinds of soups, snacks, fish and birds, fruits, seven or eight tiger skin cushions are really mighty, and in front of each cushion is a small black lacquer painted gold coffee table. It was still early, the guests had not yet arrived, and the retainers and maids were silently busy, ready to receive the distinguished guests.

In a moment, Yoshihiro Ouchi accompanied an old monk with a gray beard and a thin body into the tea room through the inner paper door. The old monk's face was wrinkled, and he walked tremblingly, as if he would fall down when the wind blew, and he was 80 years old. Ouchi Yoshihiro helped the old monk to sit on a tiger skin cushion and whispered something, he seemed very relaxed, and let out a slight laugh from time to time.

The servants saluted together, Yoshihiro Ouchi waved his hand, and the subordinates respectfully retreated.

Chongwen noticed that the placement of tiger skin cushions was very interesting, and there was no distinction between the host and the guest, but it was placed at random, which seemed to mean that guests sat casually, which is not very common in the country.

Chongwen turned his head to look at Nonghime, and Nonghime said softly: "This old monk is the master of Dream Window Shushi, he is the most respected monk in the whole family, and the presiding monk of Tianryu Temple, the head of the five mountains in Kyoto. He was both the teacher of General Kakune and Emperor Go-Daigo. Without the participation of Master Shushi of Dream Window, it would be impossible for these magnates to sit in a tearoom, and the master is making a final effort to keep the Kakune shogunate. ”

Chongwen said in a low voice, "It seems that the rank is a little unusual. ”

Nohime said, "Today's attendees are the most powerful people in the country, who is willing to be subservient. This is also in line with the idea of Master Mengzhuang, who believes that all living beings are equal, no one is superior, and everyone should drink tea and discuss the Tao together, so we should stay away from the worldly etiquette and be honest and casual. ”

Chongwen nodded slightly: "This Dream Window Master is a master, and he coincides with my Dragon King Island. ”

In a moment, two nobles walked into sight from the corridor with a smile and a smile, both of them were dressed straight down, wearing folding bird hats, holding fans in their hands, and their black teeth made Chongwen inexplicably disgusted.

Nohime said in a low voice: "The one who wears the big stripes and hangs straight is Hatakeyama Mankei, and the four orders are guarded by the country; General Spoyi was nominally the deputy of the Kamakura Principality, but in fact he was the eye of the Shogunate to monitor the Kamakura Principality, so the Spo family and the Kamakura Principality were not on good terms, and he did not support the Kamakura Principality succeeding to the shogunship. ”

Chongwen looked outside the grille and said, "It seems that the relationship between the two of them is not bad." ”

Nongji pursed her lips and said, "The two of them are the biggest playboys in the country, and in their hearts they are more greedy than the other. Hatakeyama Mitsukei dreams of snatching the Three Kingdoms of, and Spoyoshi is about to drive out Hosokawa Yoriyuki, become a deacon of the shogunate again, and retake the country of Hanoi, for which he will even betray his mother, let alone betray the shogunate. ”

Seeing such vulgar words spit out from Nongji's delicate little mouth, Chongwen couldn't help but laugh a little. Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, and they have grown up with the people of Longwang Island, and even the maids are heroic, and they seem to be more and more accustomed to being pure in their foul language.

The two flashed in front of their eyes, walked into the tea room, greeted Yoshihiro Ouchi and Yumeko Shushi, and sat down on the tiger skin cushion casually. Only then did Chongwen see the two clearly, they were both about 30 years old, and they were the same age. General Spoyi's face was full of arrogance, but Hatakeyama Mitsukei had a nonchalant look.

On the cloister, the retainers of the two walked by, holding black and gold-painted wooden rafts, stacked in the middle of the tea room. A retainer spoke loudly: "Lord Hatakeyama will present ten copies of the Kyoto dye, and Lord Spo will present ten layers of brocade sleeves." ”

Nonghime explained softly to Chongwen: "This is their bet on the tea fight. ”

Yoshihiro Ouchi smiled: "In this case, as a master, I can't help but express it. He clapped his hands lightly, and the two little surnames held the black lacquer plate and placed it in the center of the tea room.

A small surname shouted: "The Ouchi family offered a hundred taels of sand gold and a pot of gold silk flowers." ”

General Si Boyi smiled and said: "This golden silk flower is also exquisite, it seems that Lord Ouchi will win the tea fight today." ”

Yoshihiro Ouchi said quietly: "The guests have not yet arrived, maybe someone has a better chance of winning." ”

As he was talking, the little surname of the Sasaki family helped an old monk into the tea room, and sat down after greeting everyone. The old monk closed his eyes slightly, talked to no one, and seemed to doze off. This old monk is wearing a yellow monk robe, a kapok robe, there are always 70 or so, I don't know how, let Chongwen think of Chen Renxiao.

Nohime showed a look of disgust and said softly: "Sasaki Michiyu, the guardian of the Six Kingdoms, especially the guardian of the Settsu Kingdom, the poisonous snake of the shogunate. He betrayed everyone, the most untrustworthy, but he still stands. Chongwen looked at this strange person intently and did not speak.

The little surname shouted: "Master Daoyu presents a hundred taels of agarwood and three pairs of musk." ”

Chongwen then said: "In order to win this tea fight, even poisonous snakes have to deal with it, according to you, maybe the Sasaki family is the first shogunate magnates to fall to the Kamakura Gongfang." ”

Nongji suddenly withdrew her little hand, and said with some annoyance: "The reason why the concubine admires His Highness Da Chuhai is because His Highness, no matter how difficult it is, will not resort to despicability and shamelessness, I didn't expect you to say such things, am I wrong about you?"

Chongwen sighed: "Because of this, I didn't have the posture of a hero, and I lost everything that my grandfather left me. ”

Nohime said, "I'd rather you be a pirate with nothing like you are now. You said that men win everything by their hearts and vision, and by benefiting more people, not by treachery and betrayal. ”

After a long time, Chongwen regained his grip on Nonghime's hand and said softly, "What you said is good. ”
