Chapter eight hundred and fiftieth IX this land passers-by
After nightfall, Ouchi Katsu and Yao Fang were still in the tavern, accompanying Mori Satonaga to drink and enjoy singing and dancing. Le Ji held a paper fan and danced gracefully in the sound of the cold. Both Ouchi Katsu and Maori were enjoying it, but Yao Fang, a native of the Ming Dynasty, may not be used to this simple singing and dancing, and his expression seemed a little boring.
At this moment, someone suddenly opened the wooden door, walked into the shop, came to the table and bowed, and said in Japanese: "Report, General Tao was attacked by an assassin in the other courtyard! The nearby samurai are all reinforcements."
After hearing this, several people immediately got up from the floor. Mao used Chinese words and said, "Tao Jing met an assassin."
Everyone paid the money and hurriedly left the place. Following the person who reported the news, everyone went to the place where the incident occurred. Soon they heard the noise, and a team of archers and archers were moving forward. Torches were bursting on the street and black smoke was floating.
After a while, Ouchi and others arrived at Taojing Villa. There was a torch outside the door, and several corpses were already lying on the ground. At this time, a warrior took a knife and approached the door carefully, kicked open the door, and then rushed to the door.
In the dim light, a "clang" sound of swords and soldiers collided, and then a scream rang out. The warrior quickly fell to the ground and lay down at the door. The remaining people outside stopped immediately, holding the sword and did not dare to move forward. Someone shouted: "Call the archers over!"
Ouchi Katsushi observed for a while and felt that the scene was a bit strange. The reinforcements could not even enter the gate of the other courtyard. It seemed that the assassins had already controlled the other courtyard. The assassins were surrounded by Ishimi Castle warriors, but they did not mention Tao Jing at all, and did not threaten them with anyone?
After a little stay, Ouchi Katsu followed the direction of the back door of the other courtyard and left the place silently. Yao Fang, a native of the Ming Dynasty, seemed to have been paying attention to him and immediately followed.
The two of them spoke silently and quickly moved in the night. Danue Sheng could hardly speak Chinese and Yao Fang could not speak Japanese, so it was difficult to talk, and simple languages such as "Qiui Hui" were not suitable at this time.
"Murdered! Killed..." An old woman shouted at Ouchi Katsura and others, looking very frightened.
Tonight, many defenders were alarmed in the city, but most of them were in Tao Jing's villa at this time. Someone was shouting here, but no one paid attention to it for a while. Ouchi Katsu immediately stepped forward to ask, and the old woman was so scared that she couldn't speak clearly, and pointed to a house not far away with her finger.
It was a house without walls, built outside like a pile of grass gates, and the door was open. Da Neisheng walked up quickly, and Yao Fang followed.
Ouchi Katsu immediately placed his right hand on the hilt of the samurai sword, and said at the door: "People from the National Court." Then he jumped in.
There was a samurai next to the door holding a samurai sword in both hands, leaning forward and staring at Ouchi Katsushi, who was about to attack at any time! The samurai might have recognized Ouchi Katsushi at once, and a relief expression appeared on his face.
But in an instant, Oui Sheng suddenly waved out the samurai sword with a "swish". The samurai at the door screamed, and with a "clang" the knife and body fell to the ground.
This situation immediately made Yao Fang, who followed him, look surprised. But Yao Fang didn't say anything, maybe it was useless to say it, because they couldn't understand each other anyway.
"Bastard!" Tao Jing's voice came.
The concentration of Oui Sheng just now relaxed a little. He looked in the sound and saw a string of blood on the ground. Tao Jing was sitting beside the wall. He seemed to be injured. What made Oui Sheng suddenly angry was that Shibukawa was actually beside Tao Jing at this time!
Shibukawa was shocked and frightened, staring at Ouchi Katsu and asked, "What are you doing?"
Ouchi Katsu changed his usual obedient appearance and slowly walked forward. His eyes turned red. He stared at the couple and said gritting his teeth: "Tao Jing, you are mean and polite as the lord."
Shibukawa said, "Are you crazy?"
Ouchi Katsu continued to move forward and continued, "You are not virtuous or capable."
Tao Jing looked at the samurai sword that was bleeding from Ouchi's hand and began to struggle to sit up. He did not say a word about the accusation and had no way to argue.
Ouchi Katsuki said again: "You took my money, but you did not give any kindness."
The two of them were getting closer and closer, and Ouchi Katsu said: "I am loyal to you, but you insult me unscrupulously. You are not worthy of being your lord!"
Tao Jing sneered: "If you feel insulted, why don't you go - die?"
"Ah..." The two of them suddenly moved closer. In an instant, Tao Jing suddenly grabbed the knife placed on the ground and stabbed forward. Almost at the same time, Da Neisheng held the knife and turned sideways, avoiding the stabbing. The blade instantly fell on Tao Jing's neck, but it stopped abruptly! A wisp of blood immediately soaked out from Tao Jing's neck skin.
Tao Jing's face was pale and his whole body was stiff.
Ouchi Katsu's knife paused for a moment, and suddenly pulled it into his arms with force. With a short "ah", blood splashed out, making Shibukawa's face stained with blood.
Shibukawa knelt there like a wood, with his eyes wide open. Ouchi Katsu grabbed Tao Jing's clothes, wiped the knife twice, and slowly put it into the scabbard around his waist.
At this time, Shibukawa gradually came to his senses, raised his head and looked at Ouchi with fearful and worried eyes.
Ouchi Katsu said: "Follow me now. Tao Jing was not killed by me, and you have nothing to do with him."
Shibukawa suddenly said, "Can you forgive me?"
"Leave this place." Ouchi Katsu repeated. His cruelty and violence just now suddenly disappeared.
The two of them arrived at the door and saw Yao Fang, a native of the Ming Dynasty, watching there, without any intention of interfering or speaking.
Yao Fang's expression was indifferent, and she looked like she was not concerned about her own affairs, but there was a vague look of interest in his eyes. Yao Fang seemed very interested in Da Nei Sheng's behavior, and when he observed Da Nei Sheng's eyes, he seemed very careful.
As soon as they walked out of the house, they saw several samurai and samurai. One samurai asked, "Ouchi, what happened?"
Ouchi Katsuda said: "The guardian Dai Tao Jun was killed by the assassin. When I came, the assassin was gone and was about to track down the assassin nearby."
The warrior glanced at the person next to him, Shibukawa, with blood on his head and on his face.
Shibukawa's eyes were extremely unnatural, and his fear was overwhelming. Fortunately, the samurai did not continue to ask more questions, and after bowing, he quickly walked towards the house.
The three of them walked silently towards the Ouchi Sheng Mansion, while Yao Fang was still following him. Shibukawa whispered: "If those people find my suspicious point, will they find my husband?"
Ouchi Katsuki was very calm, turned his head to look at Yao Fang beside him, and said to Shibukawa in Japanese, "Why don't you understand? Ishi Jianguo's affairs are decided by the Ming people. Tao Jing is just a 'natural noble' dog, but he is still a dog, with his tail between his legs. Is it important to die a dog?"
Shibukawa's expression became very complicated.
Back in the courtyard, Shibukawa was busy changing his clothes. Ouchi Katsu and Yao Fang sat in the hall together, silently facing each other, and the paper and ink were placed on the wooden table. But the paper was white and neither of them wrote.
The courtyard was very quiet and it was completely silent.
Ouchi Suk finally picked up his pen and wrote Chinese characters on the paper: Grievances and resentment will be reduced to death.
The grammar of Japanese is different from that of Chinese. Danui Sheng doesn't seem to be very proficient in classical Chinese. Sometimes the sentences written are not easy to understand. However, Yao Fang communicated with him many times and should be able to understand his habits and understand the meaning: people have hatred for each other, and only death can calm the conflict.
Yao Fang also continued to write a passage. Da Neisheng took a look and understood the meaning: Wouldn't you kill Tao Jing's whole family?
The two looked at each other, trying to understand each other's deep thoughts.
Danei Sheng wrote it, and the general idea was: I have no reason or power to kill Tao Jing's family. If Mingjun wanted to do this, I would definitely have no objection.
Yao Fang shook her head. Ouchi Katsuyaki also knew the relationship. The Ming army would not deal with Tao Jing, but would instead investigate the source of the assassin; because the assassin came to deal with the guardian of Shimiya Kingdom supported by the Ming army, which was provoking the prestige of the Ming army.
Of course, things have already emerged. Ouchi Katsuki had already told Yao Fang that the people from the Uesugi family in Kanto were bribing the guards of Ishimiko.
At this moment, Shibukawa, who had changed his clothes, came out with a tea set. Yao Fang turned to look at her. He smiled like nothing, but Danui Sheng realized that it seemed to be a sneer.
But Yao Fang never wrote about Shibukawa and did not mention it at all. He probably didn't want to interfere with the private affairs of Danui Sheng.
Shibukawa looked at Yao Fang, showed a polite and forced smile, knelt on the ground and bowed, and said in Japanese: "It's rude."
Yao Fang shook her head gently, and it seemed that she couldn't understand at all.
Shibukawa turned to Ouchi Katsushita and said, "Last night, my husband attacked me, and I was angry and said anger. It was not true. Can you forgive me? Tao Jing initially threatened me and forced me to force me, he was the city lord, and my wife was really unable to disobey his wishes, and I was also a victim..."
Ouchi Katsura sighed, neither responding nor trying to refute her lies.
He sat in meditation for a while before saying, "Happiness is just a vain. Tao Jing likes you just because you are my wife; I am the source of his happiness. People are always obsessed with hurting each other and enjoying it."
Shibukawa said, "I regretted it. Will you send me back to Shibukawa's house?"
Danui Sheng didn't answer.
Yao Fang wrote on the paper: After the Maori inspection was over, I went to Hakata with him. Maybe recently, I will return to the capital from Hakata Port. I hope we will see each other again one day.
After reading it, Ouchi nodded and bowed to Yao Fang.
Yao Fang also wrote: The Ming Dynasty guards the Northern Office and is very optimistic about Da Neijun.
Da Nei Sheng: Passersby in this land will eventually die.
Yao Fang looked at the words above and thought about something. At this time, a gust of wind broke out in the courtyard outside the door, and the grass and trees were "swish" sounded. The bald Da Neisheng looked at the movements in the dull place in a daze.
