[Comprehensive] Takasugi-kun's Melancholy

The Changzhou domain is different from Edo, where generals and heavenly beings are stationed. This domain has a martial atmosphere and the people are very xenophobic. In earlier years, they only rejected the people of foreign domains, but in this domain In the era when the heavens and humans were rampant, the difference between the people of the Changzhou domain was just the earthlings and the heavenly beings. Their unflinching attitude towards the heavenly beings made this feudal kingdom full of struggles and even wars.

However, it is precisely for this reason that this feudal state has a good acceptance of foreign warriors. Obviously, compared with those heavenly beings who are obviously invaders, foreign warriors with combat power are not only not hot potatoes, but on the contrary. But the backbone of the vassal state against heaven and man.

This is probably why Songyang came to Changzhou Fan, right?Takasugi-kun looked at the "Records of the Fan Kingdom" in his hand, but couldn't help but think of what Ayu told him: Changzhou Fan is the cradle and paradise of radical samurai.

This is also a matter of course, right?Takasugi-kun turned another page of the book, dark and lazy: Here is a man who encourages the people to kill heaven and man even at the expense of

O feudal lord who has written the laws and regulations!

Speaking of which, Mrs. Mifune is a staunch supporter of the iron-blooded feudal lord.

"Master, you've joined the feudal clan." Ayu said to Takasugi-kun.

"Really?" Takasugi-kun put down the book, "Help me change my clothes, Yu." He stretched out his hands to signal the maid to help him dress. Although the clothes on Takasugi-kun are already very solemn, his actions are in this place But he not only represents himself, as the only son of Mifune, he also represents the face of Mifune, so he needs to be more careful, cautious, and inviolable in this feudal kingdom she has been running all year round.

Ayu obviously understood Takasugi-kun's meaning. She chose the most formal kimono for Takasugi-kun. The sleeves of the kimono were also embroidered with the family crest of the Mifune family - ryumon.

He really didn't give his father any face at all, Takasugi-kun thought to himself, it is extremely rare to see such a marriage relationship in this age, or it's just such a case, this age is not There is no talk like Heli, although there is divorce, but it is a phenomenon that only occurs when the man's status is higher than that of the woman. For Haruki Takasugi, who can't even keep his ancestral home, divorce has become an impossible ambition. What he can do is to endure all kinds of insults given to him by Mrs. Mifune, and at the same time squander the money from Mrs. Mifune.

Perhaps the ancestral house named "Takasugi" will really be named "Mifune" in the near future?After all, the original house of the Mifune family is no longer liveable due to the location, so Mrs. Mifune would not mind adding another "ancestral house" with enough sense of history.

People want clothes, God wants gold clothes, and Takasugi-kun who changed into a formal kimono really looks quite different from the original one. If I really want to say, it is probably more expensive.

He doesn't look like the son of a low-level samurai at all. He has the demeanor of a noble son left over from Heian-kyo, and the calm spirit inherited from Mrs. Mifune, which even the son of a feudal lord can't match.

Those who were shocked by Takasugi-kun were not only those samurai stationed on the border, even Sakata Gin was a little surprised when he saw him for the second time.

"Are you surprised, Yinshi?" When he was in a daze, Yoshida Matsuyo said for no reason, "Look carefully, Yinshi, that child has inherited the purest samurai blood in this era."

In the era when the Mifune family was very prosperous, they could be called "the samurai family with the purest bloodline".

"However, wearing such heavy clothes, you can't even lift a sword, right?" Yinshi pointed out the problem sharply. Can a samurai who can't even lift a sword be considered a samurai?

"It can be lifted." Song Yang gently refuted Sakata Gintoki's words, "The kind of person who has the blood of a warrior engraved on his soul can lift it steadily even if he wears heavy clothes." He didn't know Thinking of something, he showed a nostalgic expression, "Although that child has not yet grown into an excellent adult who can hold a knife in heavy clothes, but in time, he will definitely become a real warrior, right?" He pressed his hand to Yinshi's On the head, Rarely rubbed it gently, "If it is Gintoki, he will definitely become an excellent samurai."

Although the way of doing things, the purpose and even the beliefs are different, as long as you have something to protect in your heart, you will definitely become an excellent samurai. Yoshida Matsuyo regards this as his lifelong creed.

Mrs. Mifune has unrivaled prestige in this feudal clan. Those warriors guarding the border didn't even dare to look up at Takasugi-kun's face. He was full of praise for their Takasugi-kun who didn't even see his face.

"If it's Master Sanfuan, you don't need to carry out this cumbersome handover at all, you just need to say hello."

"Are the two next to you friends of Master Mifune? No, no, no, it doesn't matter. Since Mifune recognized them, they must be trustworthy people, and they don't need to stay here for a long time."

"Okay, okay, please keep the guide."

"Be careful all the way, the situation in the domain is not very peaceful now."

The problem of entering the vassal that originally required staying for many days was resolved within half an hour, but those frontier samurai who had always been honest with foreign vassals bowed to Takasugi-kun repeatedly, and did not even dare to straighten their waists a little.

But what they saw was Master Mifune, not Master Takasugi. Mr. Takasugi murmured silently in his heart. For the people in this domain, the surname Takasugi was meaningless. This is already an established fact.

What they saw was Mrs. Mifune's only son "Master Mifune", not "Takasugi Shinsuke" who struggled and grew up.

"Having such a mother is actually a very hard work, isn't it?" Yoshida Shoyo looked at the thin child and said to himself.

He was the only one among all the people who looked directly at Takasugi-kun with open eyes, and even Gintoki turned his head away because of the inexplicable shock, unwilling to face Takasugi-kun directly.

Takasugi-kun naturally noticed Yoshida Shoyo's clear and unaffected eyes. He didn't say anything, but just took a deep look at Shoyang, and then boarded the tall carriage with the help of Ayu.

He noticed Song Yang's mouth shape, and the words he pronounced were "Come on".

A strange man, a strange samurai, Takasugi-kun thought so, but raised a small smile.

This strange man obviously got Takasugi-kun's favor. That night, when they were having dinner at the border, Takasugi-kun joined the conversation of those samurai for the first time. He is a samurai who travels around the feudal kingdoms, so is there anything interesting during the journey?" He opened half of the curtain, and half of his pale face was revealed in the firelight.

"Interesting things?" Unlike the silent guards, Yoshida Shoyo just put down his chopsticks and answered Takasugi-kun's question in a very natural manner, "Not only are there, but there are many more." He thought for a while and picked out one Two things, let me tell you, "I remember that was when I was in Edo two years ago..."

Yoshida Shoyo is a man who is very suitable for telling stories. Not only Gintoki and Takasugi-kun were fascinated by it, but even the guards who traveled all over the world in the early years were also very attentive.

If this man becomes a teacher, he will be very successful, right?Takasugi-kun commented accurately, after all, he has an involuntarily convincing temperament. If this temperament is used in education, it will surely cultivate a large number of outstanding students who inherit the "Spirit of Yoshida Shoyo", right?

What's more, a man who can travel all over the country and sum up experience is definitely not a small character, and what he can pass on to the students is not just the empty Bushido spirit that is just spoken.

Although seppuku is a compulsory course for samurai, isn't it a samurai if you haven't studied seppuku?The so-called samurai are not a type of people who can be bounded by superficial jumping boxes.

"Why do you insist on traveling all over the domains, Mr. Songyang?" After Songyang finished talking about the interesting things, Takasugi-kun asked again, "Wouldn't it be very hard to walk outside in this age?"

"It will be very hard." Songyang always speaks very briskly, which is somewhat similar to the Edo children who are called by the people nowadays, but it does not match his beautiful face. "But if you don't travel around If I hadn’t, I’d still be just a half-baked guy up to now, instead of growing into an excellent adult like I am now.”

"Hey, are you too stinky?" Yin Shi pointed at Song Yang with the tip of his chopsticks, "Who would say that he is an excellent adult?"

"Is this how you treat your teacher, brat?!" Songyang's trembling reappeared again.

"No, Mr. Matsuyo's words are not wrong." Unexpectedly, Takasugi-kun agreed with Matsuyo's boastful words, "He is indeed an excellent adult, no, it should be said that he is an excellent samurai." He said so but put down He lifted the car curtain that had been raised all the time, "It was a pleasure talking with you, Mr. Songyang." His words were hidden behind the car curtain.

Is it half-baked if you haven't traveled by yourself?Takasugi-kun in the carriage fell into deep thought because of Songyang's words, maybe just like what Songyang said, he needs to use his own feet to measure this land and experience the world and human conditions here.

However, that is also a matter of growing up.

It is undeniable that Yoshida Shoyo's unintentional words planted a seed in Takasugi-kun's heart. In time, that seed will surely take root and grow into a towering tree.

"You're still a kid." Song Yang poked the contents of the bowl with his chopsticks and said softly.

"Huh?" Yin Shi questioned when he heard what he said, brat? !That young master with "high above" written all over his face? !

What are you kidding? ! !

"Of course it's a brat, what kind of expression is that, Yinshi!" Songyang twitched the corner of his mouth, Yinshi's expression was so rich, it seemed that he could directly see what was written on his face.

"Don't Believe" is written on the left cheek, and "Liar" is written on the right cheek.

"If you have a chance, you can get in touch with that child." He touched Yinshi's head, "If it was you, you would definitely become a good friend with that child."

"Don't think about it, Songyang." The guards in the same convoy laughed and teased Songyang, "No matter how immature a brat is, he is the only son of Mrs. Sanfuan. People like us can't afford it."

Teacher Songyang smiled, and was noncommittal to the guard's words. No one knew the truth better than him. The so-called barrier between bloodlines is actually the most fragile thing. It cannot be a reason for estrangement. He himself is a typical example.

"!" Everyone paused, but they didn't act rashly. After a long while, they raised their chopsticks again after they couldn't feel the staring eyes.

Be careful tonight, Songyang thought to himself, he glanced at the guards opposite, and found that they all exchanged a look tacitly, obviously they all found the peeper just now.

It wasn't that the voyeur wasn't skilled enough, nor was it because of the noise he made. In fact, he didn't make any mistakes, but it's a pity that what he was targeting was not the so-called rich man's convoy, but a well-trained And the experienced private army guards, this group of people has reached the point where they can breathe naturally with their surroundings. Their intuition is more sensitive than wild animals, and the slightest disturbance can attract their attention.

Those vicious thieves who are used to robbing wealthy businessmen are obviously going to have a big fall tonight. If they are unlucky, they may all be wiped out!

Who told them to be so unlucky, but to focus on Takasugi-kun's convoy?
