When they returned to the camp, Lin Qing'er, Nayan Ziqing, and Hegong Xingzi were all there.Xingzi had always been afraid of Xiao Ran, but she was eager to know whether Xiao Ran would hand herself over to Tokugawa Iemo, so at this moment, she could only pluck up her courage.Seeing that her little face was pale with nervousness, she was obviously full of worries about her own fate.

Xiao Ran deliberately didn't mention this, and only talked to Lin Qing'er and Zi Qing, telling them that they were going back to the capital.Xingzi waited for a long time but there was no movement. She was so anxious that she was about to cry. She plucked up her courage and said in the smallest voice: "Xiao... General Xiao, then I..."

"You?" Xiao Ran squinted at her and said, "Aren't you going to marry? Of course I want you to go to Edo and leave tomorrow morning."

Xingzi was stunned, tears welled up, and after a long while he forced a smile and bowed to Lin Qing'er and Nayan Ziqing, saying: "Thank you two sisters for taking care of Xingzi for so long. Xingzi doesn't know how to repay, if any If you have a chance, I would like to fast and pray for my sister." Then he turned around and bowed to Xiao Ran, and said, "Thank...thank you, General, for saving your life!"

Xiao Ran snorted, but did not answer.Xingzi was afraid that she might cry out loud, so she covered her face with her hands, turned around and walked out of the tent quickly.

Both Lin Qing'er and Nayan Ziqing couldn't bear it, and said, "Little Sanzi, she..."

Xiao Ran waved his hand and said, "Don't talk too much about Xingzi. After all, she has a special status and many political factors are involved. Even if I want to help her, I have no way to do it."

The two wives also understood that this matter was of great importance, and they each sighed and stopped trying to persuade them.

It was dark, and the two wives went back to their tents to rest.Because it was a march and war, it was often necessary to raise the tent overnight to discuss matters, and it was inconvenient for Xiao Ran to sleep with his wives, so apart from occasionally meeting physical needs, he let the two of them live in the small tent at the back with Xingzi.Xiao Ran couldn't sleep for a while, so he turned on the lamp to read the draft of the secret agreement signed during the day, and scrutinized it word by word to see if there were any omissions.

Unknowingly, sleepiness struck, and he fell asleep on the table.After an unknown amount of time, I suddenly heard a low sob.At first I thought it was a dream, but the more I listened to it, the clearer it became. When I opened my eyes, I saw a girl in kimono kneeling in front of me. Yuda Rika was crying, her shoulders were twitching, she looked pitiful, it was Sachiko Kazumiya.

"What are you doing here?" Xiao Ran frowned displeased.After knowing Xingzi's true identity, Xiao Ran knew that she would not pose a threat, and would not run away by herself, so he relaxed his supervision on her and let her sneak in in the middle of the night.

Xingzi cried even harder, sobbing for a long time before saying: "I beg the general to let me live, I, I am willing...to serve the general..."

Looking sideways with her slender hands, the wide kimono slid down, revealing a slender neck and round shoulders.Under the light, I can see clearly, I can only see a large area of ​​delicate and white skin, which is extremely attractive.

go out. "

"what?"

Although Sachiko Kazumiya is young, she is very aware of the lethality of her appearance to a man.So when he heard Xiao Ran's sudden sound, he couldn't help but froze for a moment.Through her tearful eyes, she saw the contempt and hatred on li xuan's face.

"I'm telling you to get out!" Xiao Ran said every word, "I never make deals with lowly people! Get lost!"

"you you……"

Xingzi obviously didn't expect him to say such words, she stared at him blankly for half a minute, her pale cheeks flushed red as if someone had slapped her hard, and suddenly stomped her feet, She threw herself on Xiao Ran fiercely, wrapped her arms around his neck, and kissed his face and lips desperately.

Xiao Ran's nerves were also short-circuited by her sudden crazy action, and it took him a while to come back to his senses, grabbing her shoulder and pushing her away vigorously, Xing Zi let out an ah, and hit the corner of the table, connecting The table fell to the ground with a clatter.

"This is your descendant of Amaterasu? Is this your high-ranking princess in Japan? Sachiko Wamiya, you are like a prostitute standing in the street. After taking off your kimono, all you have left is disgusting! Bah!"

Xiao Ran was furious, and his chest heaved uncontrollably.In fact, even if there was a prostitute standing in front of him, he might not get angry, maybe he would accept it, but Kazumiya Sachiko made such a move, which made him burst into anger that even he thought was unexpected.There is some vague feeling, entangled in his chest, even he himself can't explain clearly.Or in his impression.For such an innocent girl to act in such a lowly manner, it is a kind of blasphemy against beauty.

In any case, Sachiko Kawamiya is also a princess of a country, so she was really desperate to come to find Xiao Ran tonight.In ancient times, the rules of the Japanese court were very strict. As a princess, Sachiko has followed the rules since she was a child.He had never done anything out of the ordinary, but now he was reprimanded by Xiao Ran.Feeling ashamed and indignant for a moment, he covered his face and wept loudly, and suddenly rushed to the corner of the table and bumped into it.

Xiao Ran was taken aback, thanks to his quick reaction, he stepped in front of Xingzi, and this head hit his lower abdomen firmly, full of strength.Xiao Ran bared his teeth and grinned in pain, inhaling repeatedly.Xingzi cried loudly: "What are you saving me for again? I, I'm an idiot, I'm disgusting, you still let me die, and I'll be clean! Huh..."

Tears flow down, rain hits the pear blossoms.Xiao Ran's heart suddenly softened.The weak girl in front of me, God gave her the appearance of sinking fish and wild goose, but failed to give her a free identity.Can't help but think of Ning Wei and Ning Xin again, from birth.Fate is completely out of your control.The so-called golden branches and jade leaves are more often a puppet, a political victim...

Suddenly thought of a sentence, called ants are still alive, but Sachiko, as a princess, has been completely deprived of the right to fight.As a weak girl.The only thing that can save her life is to sell her body. How pitiful and pathetic is she when she trades her chastity and dignity on the moral balance?

Xiao Ran shook his head and sighed deeply.After a long silence, he whispered: "It's not that I don't want to let you go, but even if you walk out of my camp, do you think it's really possible to survive? Respecters, conservatives. Everyone is staring at you. God I have arranged for you the status of a princess, which means that many things cannot be chosen."

After hearing this, Xingzi felt more and more sad, and cried so hard.Xiao Ran frowned.In fact, Kishu Tokugawa's family was not cursed. The reason why they didn't live long was because of unreasonable diet and living habits, which led to vitamin B1 deficiency.As long as the diet structure is properly adjusted, this disease can be cured without treatment, but Xiao Ran does not want to save Tokugawa Iemo.The reason is very simple, this guy is a typical waste, not a big responsibility.Let him be the general of the shogunate, and if he fails to keep it clean, the reformist forces will rise one day.If he really died, it would be a good thing. The title of general would naturally fall to Tokugawa Yoshiki. With his sophistication and his own help, he would definitely be able to revive the shogunate.

It's just that in this way, the innocent Sachiko will be in bad luck.Xiao Ran pondered for a while, then suddenly had an idea, and said: "Sachiko, I don't know if the Jizhou Tokugawa family is really cursed. But I can teach you a way: from the time you get married, every day For an exorcism meal, you can only eat cabbage and celery. Well, lean meat is also fine, but you can’t avoid meat. With this method, all curses should be broken. But you have to remember that this exorcism meal can only be eaten by you alone. If you tell other people, it won’t work. Do as I say, and it should save your life.”

Cabbage, celery and lean meat all contain a lot of vitamin B1. If you eat it, you won't get beriberi.Xingzi was very surprised, and said: "You... what you said, is it true? I heard that Kizu Tokugawa's family also invited a clever mage, but they couldn't get rid of it.

"Damn!" Xiao Ran raised his middle finger contemptuously, "From food, clothing, housing, transportation to astronomy and calendar, how many things in your Japan are not passed down from our China? Speaking of your Japanese mystic arts, China's Book of Changes, Bagua and Qimen Dunjia are the ones. Old Ancestor! What nonsense mages are just heretics, do you think they will be smarter than me?"

"But..." Xingzi wiped her tearful eyes, sobbed for a long time before saying, "You... why did you save me?"

"I'm... Damn, why are you talking so much nonsense! Go back to Edo tomorrow morning, don't be an eyesore to me!"

Xiao Ran roared impatiently.Xingzi had always been afraid of him, and after giving him such a yell, she didn't dare to ask again even if she had doubts.He stood up and bowed deeply to Xiao Ran, then turned around and walked out of the tent.

"Yeah, a Japanese woman, why should I save you?...Psychopathy!" Xiao Ran shook his head and smiled self-deprecatingly.He didn't call the guards either, he set up the table and set it up by himself.I accidentally caught a glimpse of something on the ground, picked it up, and it turned out to be a beautiful sachet, exquisitely made, and I guessed it was just dropped by Sachiko Kazumiya.

There is a little white rabbit embroidered on the sachet, with a fluffy body, red glasses, and a three-petal mouth that seems to be smiling or acting like a baby.Xiao Ran shook his head with a smile, and said to himself: "This girl...can embroider much better than Xin'er!"

Guessing that Xingzi hadn't gone far, he walked out of the tent, intending to return the sachet to her.It was late July at this time, half a waning moon hung high in the night sky, and the moonlight was as cool and white as silver.In front of the tent stood two guards, one on the left and one on the right, and they were standing guard completely naked.Xingzi had only walked a dozen or so steps, and she lowered her head slightly. The peaceful moonlight shone on her body, and her back was slender and graceful.

"Sachiko, wait a minute...Huh?"

Xiao Ran called Xing Zi to stop, and the moment he was about to step forward, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.This feeling is very strange. It rises from the back and runs all the way up the door along the neck, which makes him feel like his scalp is tingling!

What's wrong?Xiao Ran himself was also a little puzzled.Since he was reborn, he has not been born once or twice. The current Xiao Ran is no longer as submissive as he was in his previous life, and his courage can be regarded as enough. Why did he have an ominous premonition for no reason?

After rebirth, Xiao Ran was not as lucky as others. He obtained all kinds of supernatural powers. The only thing he gained was that sensitive and even weird intuition. It was just this momentary feeling, but it made his whole nerves tremble in an instant. Tense!

Sachiko also stopped at this moment, turned around and looked at him with some doubts.There may be a trace of panic in this doubt, God knows if Xiao Ran is regretting rejecting him just now!

but……

Ah, those two guards! ! !Xiao Ran suddenly realized that something was wrong, even though it was late at night, how could the guards be rude when the manager was out of the tent? !

Huo Ran turned around, and the two guards remained motionless like old monks in meditation.The moonlight shone on them, exuding a strange coldness.

"There's an assassin!... Sachiko!!!"

Xiao Ran suddenly turned around and rushed towards Xingzi with the fastest speed in his life.This yell made Xingzi stunned for a moment, seeing Xiao Ran's figure rushing towards him like a wolf like a tiger, she unconsciously took a step back.

But at this moment, Xiao Ran could see it very clearly.Under the watery moonlight, a gray figure that could not even be seen clearly seemed to jump out of nowhere, appearing behind Sachiko without warning, with his arms raised high, and a long, narrow but bright handle. The sword reflected the cold light in this direction, pointing obliquely at the dark blue night sky.

Phew~~!

The sharp knife light suddenly cut down!Xiao Ran could even clearly see that Sachiko's long hair was rolled up by the strong wind from the samurai sword and fluttered in the night.

boom!

With a clear gunshot, Xiao Ran found out the six-shot pistol on his waist in an instant, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.As far as his marksmanship is concerned, this shot was absolutely [-]% luck, the bullet whizzed past Sachiko's shoulder, and sent the faint gray shadow flying backwards.And that saber light suddenly disappeared the moment it was about to cut Sachiko's neck.Including the gray shadow that flew out, it disappeared out of thin air like a mirror was shattered!

And at the same time as Xiao Ran jumped out, behind him, there was also a saber light passing by quickly.It was probably too coincidental that Xiao Ran's movement towards Xingzi was too coincidental, or the assassin didn't expect him to make a sudden movement at all, and the knife failed to succeed.The cold knife tip cut along Xiao Ran's right shoulder to his left rib, and the slight sound of silk tearing could be heard so clearly in the quiet night.

Everything happened so fast that Xiao Ran hadn't had time to feel the pain.But the passing breath of death made his heart tighten instantly!The assassin wanted to assassinate not only Sachiko Kawamiya, but also me!

The murderous intent in his eyebrows no longer allowed Xiao Ran to think so much, the only thing he could do was run forward with all the strength in his body without looking back.At this time, Xingzi obviously saw the saber light, and screamed out of fright, which was heard very clearly in the silent camp.

procrastination!As long as you can delay for a little time and wait for the brothers to come out, you will be saved!Xiao Ran didn't dare to turn his head back, he swung the gun towards his back and pulled the trigger continuously, shooting the remaining five bullets out one after another.

The assassin behind him must have never seen such a continuous firearm. He missed a single shot, and then he jumped down and slashed down again, but his flying body just met the incoming bullets, as if he had hit the bullet himself. The same as the one on the muzzle.With a muffled grunt, he fell to the ground, rolled a few times and then disappeared into the darkness.

"There are assassins! Protect your lord!"

The quiet camp suddenly boiled up. After all, the brothers in Daxing Mountain were well-trained and rushed out of the camp immediately.With hunting knives in hand, Lin Qing'er and Nayan Ziqing rushed over immediately.In the moonlight, there seemed to be something flashing past in the shadow of the big tent behind Xiao Ran.An ominous premonition suddenly rose in the hearts of the two girls, and they wanted to rush forward to push Li Ran away, but it was already too late.

"Be careful!!!"
