Nidhogg Can't Keep Up

Chapter 10: I want to play a game of chess...

(There is a funny book about my own who is urging me every day in another book group... What a dog. And, gentlemen, I am back again)

"Why did Uncle take the initiative to find Sister Hui Ye today? Are you starting to consider my proposal?"

In the carriage, the little girl looked at the young man next to her with a narrow smile, that sinister posture was very familiar...

Regarding this situation, Ned Hogg chose to suppress it as a matter of course, and gave her a brainstorm...

"You, you really learned from Kaguya. Something big happened today."

"Big thing?" The little girl looked at Ned Hogg pitifully, with forced tears still hanging from the corners of her eyes.

"Yeah, about greed, arrogance, fraud..." Nid Hogg said with a smile, with a meaningful smile, "It's a wonderful show..."

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— ———————————————————

"Ah, what a rare visitor, Your Excellency. Why did you come here this time?" Kaguya Ji asked with a smile covering her mouth with her sleeve, "Could it be that you miss my concubine?"

In the waiting room, dismiss the little girl on the grounds that they have something to talk about, and no one will hear the content of their conversation.

"It's just that I'm a little concerned about a big scene, and I just want to witness the prologue." Ned Hogg ignored the other party's teasing, and brought that natural sternness, and his gestures were even more elegant and capable than Kaguya.

"Oh? It's related to the concubine's body?" Kaguya Ji responded quickly.The other party came to watch the play here, obviously it was related to me, even...

"Of course, you're the leading actor~" Ned Hogg's words confirmed her guess.

---------------------------------------The little girl on the other side------ --------------------

"What the hell are uncles and sisters talking about? I really care." The little girl stared at the closed house irritably, turned her head, and seemed to think of something, her face slowly turned red, "Could it be...wrong! Me, maybe it has something to do with me?"

The red tide on his face gradually dissipated, and he began to "reason": "Could it be that uncle is telling my sister about my past?"

The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible. Just as the little girl was about to rush back to stop the "Black History Exposure Incident" from happening, the noise from far and near outside the bamboo forest made her stop.

"so many people……"

Lying under the cover of the bamboo leaves, the little girl saw dozens of people walking towards the bamboo house.

"Father..." The little girl looked in surprise at the familiar middle-aged man among the five surrounded by dozens of people, and quickly covered her mouth.

"I have to tell my uncle and them quickly." The little girl quickly tricked her father.

"Uncle! Sister!..." The little girl yelled and rushed into the room and saw the two talking and laughing and looking at her in surprise. She immediately thought "these two are good friends and husband and wife", but she recovered immediately Come on, "Uncle and sister, Father has brought many people here."

Unexpectedly, when they heard what he said, the two people closest to him looked at each other and smiled, it was definitely not a friendly smile, but a joke.

"Are you here?" Ned Hogg pondered for a moment, and said to Kaguya Ji: "Then I will just wait for the princess's performance."

"Girl, go hide and don't come out if anything happens."

"Oh."

Without doubt or hesitation, the little girl ran to Kaguya Hime's bedroom, and there was no more sound.

"Good boy." Ned Hogg praised with satisfaction, and got up to sit at the end of the tatami. "This is the farthest place where no one will sit, and it's not a bad auditorium."

"Are you sure they can't see you?" Kaguya Hime couldn't help but confirm again.

"Haven't you already asked Taketori to confirm, there is no problem."

Outside the bamboo house.

The Taketori Five Idiots...I mean the Five Powers are already in place, and Fujiwara Bubiwai is asking the old man: "Please marry your daughter to me."

But the old man just replied: "She is not my own daughter, I can't make the decision."

"Please at least let us take a look at Kaguya's face. It would be a pity if we couldn't even see Kaguya's face."

To put it bluntly, these five high-ranking guys claimed to have fallen in love with Kaguya Hime for several years, but they had never met directly.

"Okay, come with me." After receiving these so-called dignitaries countless times, Taketori Ong didn't speak politely, but just brought the five of them to Kaguya Hime, and she made a decision.

"Daughter, these people who have come to visit you from far away must love you very much. You should think about it for yourself."

The Fujiwara mansion is only two hours away by car~ Ned Hogg just smiled and said nothing.

Kaguya Ji has been on the earth for many years. Although she feels the affection of relatives that she has never had before because of the careful care of her current parents, she still despises other people on the earth. It is impossible for her to marry these people. Can't pay attention either.But fortunately, Ned Hogg had already mentioned her before.

The abilities of eternity and instant were activated quietly, and the five men stood like puppets.

She cast her eyes on Nid Hogg, who had nothing to do with herself and was hanging high.

Seeing Kaguya looking over, Nid Hogg made a "no problem" gesture, then turned his head to count the grids of the tatami mat...

"..." Kaguya Ji gave him a white look with black lines all over her head, and restored the appearance to the way it was before the ability was activated.

Sitting calmly on the tatami and looking at the five people below, before they opened their mouths, he said slowly: "Each of you five is sincere and excellent, and you can't tell the good from the bad. Then I hope, who can put the most precious Whoever brings me something that is the most sincere, I will be his wife."

"Prince Shizhu, there is a Buddha's stone bowl in Tianzhu, can you get it for me? Prince Chechi, there is a fairy mountain named Penglai in the East China Sea. There is a tree on the mountain. The root is silver, the stem is gold, and it is actually white jade. Go and break a branch for me. Send it here. Minister Right, can you bring me the Excalibur Clouds of the Sky? Da Nayan, you have the ability to give me the black gem on the head of the black dragon named Nidhogg on the other side of the Western Sea Take it? As for Nagon Ishigami, go to the end of the sea and get me a spear called Gungnir."

Of the five treasures mentioned by Kaguya Ji, except for the stone bowl in front of the Buddha and the jade branch of Penglai, I have never heard of the three, but even the two that I have heard of are just legendary things, and I have never heard of them. got it.Although the five of them felt angry in their hearts, they didn't want to say much, so they had to agree repeatedly, for fear of arousing Kaguya Ji's bad feeling.

But in my heart, I don't have much confidence in whether I can complete...

Seeing the five people leave, Kaguya Ji finally felt relieved, and looked at Ned Hogg, who had stopped counting grids at some point, and looked at the middle-aged man who was the head of the five thoughtfully.

"It's okay to say that the Penglai jade branch and the stone bowl in front of the Buddha are both treasures owned by the concubine. Are the three things you proposed really reliable?" Kaguya Ji was still a little worried.
