Genshin Impact: The Sharpshooter of Teyvat
Chapter 262: Undercurrents on Ming Shen Island
Just as Kamisato Ayato was about to turn around and leave, Kujo Kamajiro suddenly called him over and said anxiously, "By the way, Mr. Ayato, I have a little private matter that I would like to consult you on."
Kamisato Ayato stopped, turned around, smiled kindly, and asked, "Just tell me."
Kujo Kamajima seemed to find it difficult to speak, but after some mental struggle, he carefully took out an envelope that had already been opened from his arms, and then handed it to Kamisato Ayato with both hands.
"It's about Qianli. This is a letter sent to Qianli by a family of the Hiiragi family. Please take a look at it. Can you give me some advice?"
Kamisato Ayato took the envelope, gently unfolded the letter, and read it carefully. The general content of the letter was as follows.
The Hiiragi family has been wiped out, leaving only an orphan like you, and you have to prepare to marry into the Kujo family.
Given your current situation and status, you have neither the ability nor the qualifications to lead the survey and implementation.
Today, the outlying islands have been taken over by our subordinate families, and the Hiiragi family no longer has a share.
If you, Chisato Hiiragi, can take the initiative to give up the Hiiragi family's leadership over the Kanjo Bugyo, we will let you leave in a dignified manner and marry Kujo Kamajima. Otherwise, if we fall out, it will be disadvantageous to both parties.
Kujo Kamji covered his head with his hands, looking very annoyed.
"Oh! I'm in a dilemma now. My father doesn't like Qianli in the first place, and now even the Kanjo Bugyo wants to drive Qianli away. What should I do?"
"If Qianli knew the contents of this letter, I wonder how sad she would be..."
Kamisato Ayato already understood Kujo Kamajiro's troubles, and also obtained information from the Kanjo Bugyo.
Then he began to comfort Kujo Kamajiro, saying, "Please rest assured, Mr. Kamajiro, regarding the personnel transfer of the Three Magistrates, the Shogun needs to review it and make the decision. This is just the subordinate family taking advantage of others' misfortune and disgusting them, so don't take it to heart."
Upon hearing this, Kujo Kamajima breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Oh, that's good."
After finishing speaking, Kujo Kamajima was afraid that Kamisato Ayato would misunderstand that he was coveting the Kanjo Bugyo, so he quickly explained: "Mr. Ayato, please don't misunderstand me. I just don't want something that originally belonged to Chisato to be taken away by those greedy guys."
Having said this, Kujo Kamajima grabbed his hair, feeling very painful.
"Qianli is already pitiful enough. Her family was wiped out. After I brought her to my home, my father didn't treat her well. If I knew that the guys who used to welcome the Hiiragi family with a smile had turned against them, I would be really scared..."
Kamisato Ayato nodded slightly and encouraged, "No need to explain too much. I know that you and Ms. Qianli are truly in love with each other. Moreover, I also believe that no matter how things develop, Mr. Kamajiro will protect Ms. Qianli, right?"
After hearing what Kamisato Ayato said, Kujo Kamajima showed a bitter smile on his face, but he still forced himself to say, "Yes, Mr. Ayato, I will protect her no matter what."
"Well, excuse me, I'm going to go see Qianli first. When my father calms down, I will convey your regards to him."
After saying that, Kujo Kamajiro bowed slightly, then turned and left the Tenryo Bugyo Palace.
Because Kujo Takahito didn't like Chisato Hiiragi, he arranged for Chisato Hiiragi to move out a few days ago, and he rarely went back to Tenryo Bugyofu to live.
Kamisato Ayato looked at Kujo Kamajima's departing back, then turned around and walked out of the Tenryo Bugyofu.
He inadvertently glanced at the dent on the Thousand-Armed and Hundred-Eyed Statue, frowned slightly, and seemed to be thinking about something.
After a moment, he withdrew his gaze and walked along the town street towards the Mulou Tea House.
Along the way, Kamisato Ayato noticed that the scenes on both sides of the street were very different from usual.
I saw that out of the ten households in Inazuma Castle, six had white flags hanging and many people were crying.
Some families lost husbands, others lost sons.
Because of the incident at Kujo Jinya, the entire Inazuma Castle was shrouded in a sad atmosphere.
……
When Kamisato Ayato finally returned to the Mokuro Tea House, he saw his sister Kamisato Ayaka pacing anxiously in front of the counter.
As soon as Kamisato Ayaka saw her brother coming back, she immediately went to meet him and asked anxiously, "Brother, what's the situation? Any news about the general?"
Kamisato Ayato shook his head slightly and said, "I just went to the Tenryo Bugyo to inquire, and Kamachi heard from his father that the general is fine."
"But I prefer to believe Thomas's statement that the general should have been destroyed by Shao Yun. Therefore, the Kujo family is lying now! Their goal is to become the actual ruler of Inazuma."
Kamisato Ayato paused and asked, "Ling Hua, what's going on over there? What's the situation with the Nine Array House now?"
Kamisato Ayaka told Kamisato what happened here. She said softly, "I took the shrine magistrates to Ganjin Island to take a look. The sea was full of the bodies of the drowned shogunate soldiers."
"It is said that some people rowed their boats back to Ming Shen Island alive, but most of them did not return to the Tenryo Bugyo. The initial speculation is that they became bandits in the wild."
Upon hearing the news, Kamisato Ayato showed a rare solemn expression on his face, and muttered to himself: "This is troublesome!"
Kamisato Ayaka looked at him in confusion and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Kamisato Ayato pursed his lips slightly and expressed his worries in a serious tone.
"According to the information obtained by the Final Battle, the Kujo family has gathered all the troops except the garrison personnel of Inazuma Castle. If what you said is true, Linghua, then this means that the military force of the Tenryo Bugyo has suffered extremely heavy losses;"
"Moreover, the number of Nobushi and Kairanki will increase slightly in the future, and the public security problem in Inazuma may be seriously deteriorated as a result!"
After hearing this, Kamisato Ayaka's face changed drastically, her pupils trembled violently, and she said in disbelief: "That means..."
Kamisato Ayato nodded heavily and continued her words.
"The road from the outlying island to Inazuma Castle has always been plagued by bandits, and now it seems that the situation may become even worse in the future!"
At this moment, a member of the final group suddenly appeared, presented a piece of information with both hands, and said respectfully to Kamisato Ayato: "Master, this is the latest information we just found out, please take a look!"
Kamisato Ayato took the note, quickly unfolded it and read it carefully.
However, when he saw the contents of the note, his eyes widened and a look of shock appeared on his face.
"What? It turned out that Shao Yun led the rebels to take down the Nine Formation Houses?"
When Kamisato Ayaka heard this, her face turned pale. She stared at the people in the final show in disbelief and asked in a trembling voice, "Is the news true?"
The person from the final group nodded affirmatively, and then briefly told the two of them the information he had obtained.
"It's absolutely true! Several of us risked our lives to sneak into Tadashi and secretly eavesdropped on the rebels' conversation. Shao Yun has been appointed as the general of Haizhi Island."
"Moreover, according to the rebels, Shao Yun's next goal is to lead them to attack Ming Shen Island."
"Some rebels even claimed that it was Orobas who sent Shao Yun to help Haizhi Island to avenge a thousand years of hatred! He threatened to kill General Raiden and usurp Inazuma's rule!"
As Kamisato Ayato was flipping through the information and listening to the narration of the final episode, she couldn't help but feel a sense of panic in her heart.
If it was Coral Palace Xinhai or General Goro who led the resistance army to capture Kujo Jinya, it might be a good thing.
After all, these two people are moderates on Kaijima Island and do not want to fight to the death with the shogunate.
However, if Shao Yun conquered the nine formation houses, the situation would become extremely serious.
Judging from the information currently available, Shao Yun is obviously ready to fight to the death with Thunder God.
Kamisato Ayato put the note into his sleeve and looked at Kamisato Ayaka with a serious expression.
"This is bad. I must immediately go to Lord Yae to discuss countermeasures. Sister, please come with me."
Kamisato Ayaka nodded slightly and replied softly, "Okay, brother."
……
At the same time, in the Tenryo Bugyo Palace, Kujo Takahito's tears had long dried up. Under the careful care of his servants, he was still howling: "My son..."
At this moment, a servant rushed into the room, looking panicked and breathless, and reported anxiously.
"Report to the master, the Fatui envoy has arrived."
Upon hearing this, Kujo Takayuki roared angrily, "I won't see her! My son is dead, how can I want to see her now? Get out of here!"
The servant replied tremblingly: "Master, the Fatui's envoy has already..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the Fatui executive "Madam" walk straight into the house, looking at Kujo Takayuki's dying appearance, and sneering arrogantly.
"Master Jiujo, why are you so angry that you don't even want to see me, your partner?"
As soon as he saw the lady, Kujo Takayuki quickly suppressed his sadness, pretended to be calm, and waved his hand to signal all the servants to leave.
When there were only two people left, Kujo Takayuki deliberately put on a strong attitude and said coldly: "What are you doing here? My son has passed away, and I need to close the door and refuse visitors for a while!"
However, the lady was not fooled by his appearance. She snorted coldly and responded with undisguised contempt: "I don't care whether your son lives or dies. I only know that we, the Fatui, have given so much support to the Kujo family."
"But in the end, the resistance army succeeded in attacking Kujo Jinya, which has had a great impact on our interests in Inazuma!"
When Kujo Jinya was under the control of the shogunate, the Evil Eye Factory located on the seaside cliff in the southwest of Yamyou Island was able to smoothly transport the crystallized bone marrow.
Now that the nine formation houses have been taken away, the people from the Evil Eye Factory are trapped on Bayun Island.
The cunning "old fox" Kujo Takahito rolled his eyes and immediately retorted.
"It is precisely because of the insufficient support you provided that our shogunate army suffered a setback on the battlefield!"
Now that the shogunate's army has suffered heavy losses, he attempts to use this to extort more aid and resources from the Fatui.
The lady had seen through Kujo Takahito's trick. She widened her eyes, glared at him, and said bluntly: "Don't try to use provocation against me. We, the Fatui, have always fully supported you. We not only provided weapons, but also shared intelligence about the resistance army..."
When Kujo Takahito heard the word "intelligence", he immediately felt like he had grabbed a life-saving straw and without hesitation pushed all the responsibility onto the Fatui.
He shouted excitedly, "Great! Since we're talking about intelligence, let me ask you, why didn't you, the Fatui, tell us in advance about the rebels' sneak attack on the Kujo Jinya?"
Seeing that Kujo Takayuki was trying to shirk responsibility, the lady became so angry that she glared at the clown in front of her with a sneer.
"Perhaps our spies in the resistance think that you can handle it easily, so there is no need to risk exposing your identity and inform us."
"Who could have expected that the people from your Nine Formation House would be so vulnerable? You are simply a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
Hearing the words "good-for-nothing", Kujo Takayuki's anger instantly ignited. He gritted his teeth and threatened: "How dare you say that? Do you believe that the general's sword will instantly turn you into ashes!"
When the lady heard that Kujo Takayuki was threatening her with the Thunder General, she sneered and said sarcastically, "You can only fool others with this, but don't let yourself be fooled."
"Your puppet general is now a useless person, with only half of his body and half of his face left. You know this better than anyone else, right?"
"If we, the Fatui, hadn't been helping your Kujo family block the news and spread rumors behind the scenes, how could you have used the name of Thunder God to become the real 'ruler' of Inazuma?"
Seeing the lady ruthlessly expose the truth, Kujo Takayuki's eyes widened and he was shaking with anger. He pointed at the door behind the lady and cursed: "You greedy guys, you evil wolves from the winter, get out!"
If it weren't for the fact that it takes too much time to cultivate a new force, the lady would have killed the noisy old guy in front of her with a knife.
"You won't cry until you see the coffin. In that case, I will go to the Yingsi family as a guest. I believe that the Yingsi family will definitely want to know about the general."
Just as the lady turned around and was about to leave, Kujo Takayuki suddenly calmed down. If this matter were to get out, wouldn't the fact that the Kujo family issued orders in the name of the general be exposed?
So he hurriedly called out to the lady.
"Wait! Don't leave yet, I have something to tell you."
The lady did not stop walking away, and replied indifferently: "It's too late. If the dog doesn't obey, then change it to an obedient dog."
Kujo Takayuki was shocked. He knew very well that he must not let the lady tell the Takagi family about the damage to the general, otherwise the Kujo family's attempt to seize power would be exposed.
So he hurriedly said, "Saro said that Orobas, who was killed by the general a thousand years ago, has been resurrected! It was under her protection that the rebels defeated her."
