From Naruto Sengoku

On the forest path, the gentle breeze carries the fragrance of flowers and plants, lingering on the tip of the nose. This faint fragrance can't help but make people feel lazy and sleepy.

Nuo, who was riding on the horse, yawned, raised his hand to rub the back of his neck, and looked at Ichiro who was carrying a small wooden box next to him.

"Ask the Daming envoy how long it will take to reach Daming Mansion?"

"Yes." Ichiro responded, quickly ran to the sedan in front, and whispered.

The side door of the sedan opened. After hearing this, the Daimyo envoy signaled the bearer to stop, and then he dragged his fat body and climbed out of the sedan with difficulty.

That's right, just climb out.

This kind of sedan is different from the sedan that needs to be carried in ancient China. The sedan of this era is more vivid when it is said that it is carried by two pieces of wood.

The messenger came to Nuo's horse, bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Sir, we still need two days to reach the capital."

Then, the messenger added: "We will rest in Minglu City tonight. I will cover all the expenses for your Excellency and your subordinates in Minglu City."

When the messenger was speaking, he kept his head lowered and did not look directly at Nuo.

Nuo nodded and said: "Then I'll trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble." The messenger returned to the sedan with a smile on his face and continued on his way.

The Warring States Period was different from the peaceful Ninja Village of later generations.

During the peaceful period of the Ninja Village, although there was also a symbiotic relationship between the Ninja Village and the country, the Daming Palace had greater power.

It can be seen from some fragments in the original work that Terumi Mei, as a water shadow, can only walk beside the sedan chair of the daimyo of the country of water. The grumpy Raikage must ask for permission from the daimyo if he wants to talk to the Konoha Hokage. After agreeing, the daimyo would then call each other to determine whether the meeting was necessary.

Although the force of ninjas is very powerful, and some ninjas can destroy an entire country by one person, they still have to eat, spend money, and live.

You can't ask a ninja who has practiced assassination ninjutsu all his life to farm, raise pigs, make wine, weave, set up stalls, do business, or go fishing in the sea.

But the peasants under the shogunate could. Therefore, if the lords had money and food, they would have a certain say.

However, this kind of power was not respected in the Warring States Period.

At that time, Konoha relied on the Fire Nation. They needed the Fire Nation's financial and material resources to support them so that they would not worry about logistical supplies when fighting internationally.

But not in the Warring States period, the lords will not give you money and food for no reason.

There was only one rule in the Warring States Period: give money to do things, and get money to do things.

But there are also ninjas who do not follow the rules and use force to break the rules, but the end is obvious, that is, they are hired by all the lords to attack them collectively, and then they are wiped out.

Based on this simple rule, ninjas will only give face to wealthy daimyo, and will not give face to others, including envoys who work for daimyo.

This time, Nuo went on a protection mission and brought two guards, one was Ichiro from Opan Town, and the other was Uchiha Gary, the granddaughter of the fifth elder, Uchiha Yosuke.

at dusk.

The group of people arrived at a hotel in Minglu City. After the messenger entertained Nuo and the others, he smiled and said, "I won't disturb the three adults. Let's go down and rest."

Nuo nodded, "It's troublesome, thank you."

In the hotel, Nuo stretched and felt more tired after riding a horse for a day than running for a day.

He looked at Uchiha Gary and said, "Gary, you will guard the hotel in the first half of the night and draw the map of Naruka City at the same time."

Uchiha Gary was puzzled. Perhaps because she was the granddaughter of the fifth Uchiha elder and had a slightly higher status in the clan, she did not respect No as much as Ichiro did.

"Sir, what do you want the map of Minglu City for?"

After the words fell, Nuo was stunned for a moment. Why would she ask herself why?Isn't she his own guardian?

Seeing Nuo obviously stunned for a moment, the expression of Ichiro next to him changed drastically. He had participated in the Battle of Opan Town and had actually been on the battlefield. Naturally, he knew that during the mission, subordinates' questioning of their superiors was fatal and could be punished at any time. , or even killed.

Ichiro quickly knelt down in front of Nuo, lowered his head, and did not dare to make a sound.

Uchiha Gary looked at Ichiro in confusion, and then heard Nuo ask: "Is the fifth elder Uchiha Yosuke your grandfather?"

"That's right." Uchiha Gary said.

Nuo nodded and said, "Is this your first mission?"

"Yes." Uchiha Gary continued to answer.

Nuo sighed, waved his hand, and said to Ichiro: "Ichiro, then I leave this task to you. Leave the entire hotel cordon and the city map of Minglu City to me tomorrow morning."

"Yes!"

Ichiro agreed cleanly and disappeared from the room in a flash.

Nuo looked at Uchiha Gary again and said softly: "Uchiha Gary, write a letter immediately. I allow you to use the ninja eagle to send it back to the clan and give it to your grandfather. The content of the letter will be about the conversation we just had. Can you Can you do it?”

Uchiha Gary paused, nodded and said: "Yes."

"Go." Nuo waved his hand and ignored her.

Uchiha Gary went out to write a letter with doubts. She didn't understand why. She was just asking why she wanted to draw a map. How could her grandfather be involved.

Nuo sighed, took out the rice ball from the cloth bag, and handed it to Awang, "Try it and see that you didn't eat much at night. I made this, stuffed with bacon."

Awang took it in his mouth and said vaguely: "Are you too harsh on the younger generation?"

Nuo shrugged and said: "You followed me when we were in Qingjiang City. Quan Nai and I were only 11 years old at that time. When did Quan Nai question an order when performing a mission?"

"Quenna will complain." Awang said.

Nuo pouted, "It's okay to complain or feel unhappy, but I won't question it, let alone resist it."

"Isn't this a ninja?"

late at night.

Uchiha clan.

"Father, this is the letter sent back from Gary." Uchiha Yosuke's son, Uchiha Xiu, whispered in the corridor.

"Come in."

Uchiha Osamu slowly opened the door, walked in, and handed the letter to Uchiha Yosuke.

After Uchiha Yosuke read the letter, he was silent for a long time and sighed softly: "Xiu, go and call Riko."

"Yes." Uchiha Xiu responded and then stepped out.

"Hey..."

Uchiha Yosuke sighed softly, what a sin, the second elder had preempted the marriage of the head of the family, so the few remaining elders who had daughters and granddaughters all looked at Nuo covetously.

With great difficulty, he arranged for Gary to be Nuo's bodyguard and they went on a mission together. He just left for a day and he questioned his superior's orders during the mission.

Is this little girl sick? Let alone No, who is the ninth elder of the Uchiha family, just because you are his bodyguard, can you question his order?

Pull a few stocks, give up the Uchiha Gary stock, arrange another potential stock, and send it out overnight.

Two quarters of an hour later, Uchiha Yosuke flew out of the clan territory at high speed with a girl with a beautiful face.
