Butterfly [The Great Austrian Woman Version]

In the next few days, Ji Zong's head was filled with endlessly spinning thoughts, and her outlook on the world, outlook on life and values ​​were greatly tested and subverted.For a moment, she felt that she should follow her own heart, but she couldn't help but doubt whether her heart was correct and whether she could adapt to this era.She felt that she was constantly being denied, and it was she who was doing it, and then she built up, collapsed, and built up again.I don't know if I was so entangled when I was a toddler.No, at that time, it should be full of joy and curiosity about the unknown world, perhaps, this is the original heart.

When thinking about life so intensely, thinking about why the world exists, why oneself exists, and such philosophical issues, the general personally presided over the engagement for Zhu, and the news that Prince Arisugawa Miya Masahito returned to Heianjing and chose an auspicious day to marry him did not seem so meaningful. The impact is gone.Ji Zong even forgot what he said or what mood he was in at that time. It turned out that these things were all false.The news of Zhu's engagement occupied Ji Zong's mind more than the issue of "Queen's gold".

"Satsuma?" Ji Zong suppressed his churning thoughts and focused on the matter he was discussing with Kano Zhengzhi.

"Yes, that's the news from the general. They said that they accepted the Mitsui family's loan model, and the shogunate will pay a certain amount of interest every year. Among them, it is said that the Heiankyo and Satsuma domains have come forward to mediate."

"Didn't mention the Yusanjia?" Ji Zong put aside the reaction of the shogunate and the royal family, but first thought about Ji Tong's expression after knowing this.

Kano Masao nodded slightly and said, "I didn't mention it, but the Mitsui family brought generous gifts to Owari-den. The procession went from the street to the end of the street, and Edo people have been talking about the grand occasion in the past few days."

Ji Zong clasped the teacup in his hand, and asked, "Is there a festival between the Satsuma clan and the general?" The Mitsui family originated in Heian-kyo, and developed in Edo. A mere business can't touch the interests of the powerful Satsuma clan, unless the Mitsui family He also asked Satsuma for help before.However, comparing the repayment of the Mitsui family to the Owari family, this should not be the case.As a result, it can only be that the Satsuma clan once offended the general.After all, this kind of thing is not a good thing, and it will be hated by the general in the end.The confrontation between Heian-kyo and the shogunate has long been incomprehensible. At this time, filling in the Satsuma clan is more like the shogunate's jealousy of the Satsuma clan.Is it a conflict of interest?The Satsuma clan is also a rare strong clan, and its territory is far away.

"Your Majesty has thought a lot these days. In fact, there is no need to worry. You have the advantage in terms of time." Gana Zhengzhi can naturally see Ji Zong's restlessness and heaviness these days. She doesn't want to crush Ji Zong, but just wants to wake her up , As for the change, how can it happen overnight.Without looking at Yoshimune's face, Masao Kano just explained the reason of the matter, "According to the intelligence feedback, at first, Odaisho-sama asked Shimadzu Jifeng, the lord of the Satsuma domain, to marry Take-kun, but the other party refused." Sometimes, some things seem Complex, in fact, very simple.A thought flashed by, and Ji Zong felt that she was about to catch the key point of the problem, but it flashed too fast, and she never caught it.

Phew, took a deep breath, Ji Zong also felt that he had pushed himself too hard these days, a little overkill, and now he can understand the embarrassment of a toddler in Handan. "In your opinion, what does the food box sent by Mitsui's family mean?"

"Boldly ask the feudal lord what he thinks."

"In fact, eating food has never been the best gift for nobles. Nobles have a lot of taboos about eating. I was afraid that there was something valuable in the food box, but I didn't know that it was actually a four-color snack. However, her courtesy is light. I But I think there is more to come. If Mitsui Hayao also piles up the presents for me all over the street, I have to think about what the general will think of me."

Gana Zhengzhi nodded, "That's exactly the reason! The Mitsui family should have remembered the feudal lord's great kindness, but they just kept a generous report. Now that the turmoil is at the forefront, it is really not the time to talk about it."

For some reason, Ji Zong heaved a sigh of relief, and then thought, recently, he really pushed himself too hard. "I want to go back to the feudal clan. Is this the right time?" Ji Zong felt that she had countless things to do, and now she couldn't figure it out, so she simply didn't want to. Let's start with the practical things first.First pay back the funeral expenses of my mother and sisters. It is a pity that a funeral can cost one hundred thousand taels of silver.Economic development is the last word.

"It's not difficult, and it's not a rotation. Congratulations to the general."

The only humane aspect of this era is that the dead are not emphasized too much, there is no observance of filial piety, no Ding You, no prohibition of marriage and funeral, what to do, or it may be that life and death are too frequent, so it doesn't seem important.

"It's just that it's best for your main wife to settle in Edo." This is also a customary thing, you can leave and leave your family behind.Ji Zong has no children, no brothers and sisters, and only at this time does he feel that he is alone.She doesn't like Zhen Gongli any more, since her identity is here, she would have known that she would bring her with her, so she wouldn't have to worry about it.But thinking about that kid, and the group of people under him, let's make a fuss, she doesn't mind the trouble.

"Then let someone send them here, and do it lightly!" Ji Zong emphasized, let Zhen Gongli perform his duties.

"Yes!" Ghana Zheng sent people to deliver the letter, and also recruited people to clean up Ji Zong and salute, arranged to say goodbye to the general, and explained the coming of the feudal lord's wife.Ji Zong looked at the leaves that fell from the treetops and spread them all over the ground thickly.Alas, winter is coming.

Gangtiao also received a food box at the Mito Temple, she had inquired about it, and so did Ji Zong.Thinking about the gift Ji Tong received from the street, Gang Tiao couldn't help but curl his mouth, let's see how you die this time.Gang Tiao opened the food box, and it was full of gemstones of various colors, packed in a thin and transparent porcelain plate, which was really attractive.Mitsui's family is also regarded as a wise man, since that's the case, I don't blame them for colliding with him. It is estimated that Ji Zong received nothing more than this kind of thing.

"Ah, my lord, this, this is true." Gangtiao recently took in a servant, the son of a merchant, who is inevitably a philistine, but he is young, beautiful and obedient.Gang Tiao's other attendants sneered at him, but they couldn't resist Gang Tiao's liking.At this moment, Gang Tiao waved his hand, and they retreated respectfully, leaving the boy alone.

"My lord, my lord, Luan, Luan wants it." Relying on his own favor, Gang Tiao is a good-natured and gentle person, so he put his hand into the food box.Gangtiao moved his head close enough that he could smell the aroma coming out of Luan's mouth.Although Luan is the son of a merchant with a lower status, his family is rich.Raised as a spoiled child, she was used to cling to the rich and powerful. She did nothing but learn some singing, dancing, piano, chess and bed skills of serving others.The reason why he breathes like blue is because he chews some tea dryly on weekdays, and his family can afford such a precious thing.But the effect is really good, when you speak, you always have a fresh breath.

Don't look at Luan's greedy eyes, just look at his fingers poking into the gemstones, each one is as tender as the tip of a bamboo shoot, with fair skin, only 12 years old, and somewhat indistinguishable coquettish.It's just that, against the luster of the gemstone, this skin is not translucent and looks a little lacking.Gangtiao frowned slightly, and shook his head slightly.She frivolously raised Luan's awl-like chin with one hand, and when she saw Luan's slightly darker lips, she withdrew her hand a little annoyed.

Luan was a little uncertain about the outline, she seemed a little displeased, it seemed to be aimed at him but it didn't seem to be.Luan had no time to think, but opened his eyes wide at Gang Tiao, fanning his bushy eyelashes. He knew that Gang Tiao liked to see him like this the most, pointing at the gemstone, he said, "My lord, Luan wants it." That proud and seductive look, Let the guidelines have a little sparkle.

"My lord." Luan stretched out his hand to pull Gang Tiao's belt, and was gently patted off by Gang Tiao. Contemptuously, he pursed his lower lip and smiled again, "Yes."

Gangtiao grabbed a handful of multicolored gemstones from the plate and threw them on Luan. "I've rewarded you." Getting up and leaving the house, Tu Liuluan was carrying all the scattered gems all by himself, with mixed emotions in his heart.

As he walked, Gangtiao thought that the boy in the Yoshihara veranda that day was a little fairer than Luan, and he would meet again another day.However, he was still not as good as that person, thinking of Zhen Gongli, Gangtiao unconsciously quickened his pace a little.It was like a fire was burning in my heart, and I was extremely irritable.She didn't like young children in the first place, with a hint of innocence, how can she compare with adult men who are knowledgeable and interesting.However, since meeting Mamiya, she has always unconsciously shifted her attention to teenage boys.

However, the more so, the more irritable she became, this one was not as fair as Zhen Gongli, and that one was not as beautiful as Zhen Gongli, fair but not as noble as him, noble but not as elegant as him.Pulling the outline vigorously, scratching the liver and scratching the heart.However, the more she looked down on young boys, the more she paid attention to young boys, and this paranoia became even worse after she knew that Mamiya had married Ji Zong.

Originally, if Zhen Gongli married someone, it would be fine. He was married, but he married someone who was not as good as himself in every way.The more he thought about it, the more he got angry, Gang Tiao stopped by the veranda, and slapped the pillar hard with his palm.
