The wind on the mountainside was a bit strong, blowing Rina's hair flying behind her head.

Yuanyi handed the bamboo tube he was carrying to Rina.

She took it, opened it, raised her head, drank some water to moisten her throat, and returned it to him.

Rina looked sideways at Ji Guoyuan's quiet profile, and couldn't help but ask, "Where are you going?"

At that moment, Ji Guoyuanyi's eyes flashed a trace of confusion, and then returned to plainness again.He raised his head, looked at the white clouds floating in the blue sky in the distance, and said in a flat tone: "I don't know..."

"Hey!"

Rina couldn't help sighing, feeling that this strategy is really difficult.

The two fell silent again.

Ji Guoyuan himself is a person who doesn't talk much, and most of the time he sits very quietly in one place.

Rina didn't know what to say.Advise him to go back?

Yuanyi will not go back.

Although he seems to be a very gentle person, as long as he makes a decision, he seems to insist unexpectedly.

Not to mention, Rina knew clearly that if Yuan went back, then one of him and Yansheng would definitely leave from the successor country.

Yuanyi won't let this kind of thing happen, he won't let Yansheng fall to that kind of situation...

It seems to be stuck in a dead end with no solution at all.

Rina thought, or maybe she was too stupid to think of a solution.

"Hey!"

Rina couldn't help sighing again, propped her chin and looked into the distance without focus.

"Go back, Rina." Ji Guoyuan said suddenly, looking at her gently.

"You came here by running, and it will take some time to walk back. If it is too late, you, a girl, will not be safe."

Rina didn't know what she was thinking, but she just sat there with some stubbornness and didn't move.And Ji Guoyuan just looked at her quietly like this, not talking.

After an unknown amount of time, a bird flew over Rina's head, heading for a higher and farther place.

She stood up suddenly, walked in front of Jiguo Yuanyi, and said as if she had made a decision: "You take me with you, Yuanyi."

Ji Guoyuan didn't seem to have thought that she would say such a thing, and he couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then curled the corners of his mouth, and said with a helpless smile: "Rina, you can't come with me."

These words were like a needle piercing Rina's courage, causing her to instantly loosen her shoulders and fall beside Yuanyi, resting her head on his slender shoulders.

She still has her own home and her own parents, if she just disappears silently...

Although it's just a game, it's so real when we get along...all the love and care are clearly expressed to her.

No way, absolutely no way...

"Then what should I do..."

Ji Guoyuan seemed to think for a while, and then said: "I won't be too far away from here, I promise to visit you every few days, it's near this temple."

Rina also felt that this was the most perfect solution.

In this way, Yuanyi will not be far away from her, which can ensure his life and safety, and she can often see him.

"really?"

Rina sat up and looked at him with cat-like eyes.

Ji Guoyuan could clearly see his own reflection in her eyes.He saw a smile leaking from the corner of his mouth, and said with a clear expression like the sun in the sky: "Really."

"You can't lie to me, or I will go out to find you, no matter the ends of the earth!"

Rina stood far away, and said loudly to the child standing in the shade.

Ji Guoyuan stood under the tree and didn't answer, but raised his hand and waved at her.

Rina turned her head every three steps, and ran home at a faster pace until she could no longer see him.

It was already dusk when I got home, and although I got Yuan Yi's guarantee, I was still a little uneasy.

As a result, when he was still a corner away from home, he bumped into Ji Guoyansheng who came out to look for her.

The little boy frowned tightly, grabbed her wrist and shouted angrily at her, "Where have you been! Everyone has been looking for you for a long time!"

His black pupils seemed to be filled with anger, but there were also some things Rina couldn't understand.She was a little surprised to meet him when she came back, but she was a little guilty for what he said.

"I'm sorry to make you worry, I just went out for a walk... I accidentally walked a little far."

These words made Yan Sheng stunned for a moment, he subconsciously let go of the hand holding Rina's wrist, pursed his lips, and said after a moment of silence: "It's because of Yuanyi..."

Everyone should know...should have known...

"Yes..." Rina also bowed her head.

The atmosphere is a bit weirdly viscous, making it difficult to breathe.

Simply at this time, Rina's mother's voice came from a distance, and Rina, who heard the voice, hurried over, "Mom, I'm here."

The beautiful and gentle woman hugged Rina, with tears running down her cheeks, she wanted to complain to Rina, but she couldn't bear it, and finally said: "Don't do this in the future, you can't find it anywhere. You, I'm almost worried to death."

The father with a knife followed behind his mother, and when he saw the safe Rina, he just said, "I told you I'd be fine. After all, I've been learning kendo from me for a year. Rina is already a samurai."

Rina's mother said to him dissatisfied: "Even so, I'm just a mother who worries about my children."

Rina smiled, put her arms around her waist tightly, and said Nuo Nuo: "I'm sorry, mother, for making you worry."

Since then, life has calmed down again.The absence of Jiguo Yuanyi from Jiguo is like taking a drop of water from the sea.

After a few ripples, there was no more reaction.

After all, if you can't find Yuanyi, Yansheng is still the heir to their successor country.

And Ji Guoyuanyi, as he had promised Rina, would meet her somewhere in the temple on the day they had agreed after a while, and he never missed an appointment.

This is how I live, two years slowly slipping away.

Rina's knives are becoming more and more proficient, and she can even reach the level of Ji Guoyan Sheng. Even the head of Ji Guoyan can't help but praise her talent.

It's just that Yansheng's expression became calmer, and the eyes he looked at Rina became more sticky, which made Rina feel very uncomfortable.

And her heart became more and more flustered, feeling that something was about to happen.

This kind of emotion reached its peak when Yansheng talked to her after a day of sparring...

"Rina...do you like knives?"

He asked so thoughtlessly that Rina was stunned.

But he didn't wait for Rina's answer, but simply turned around and left the training ground, leaving Rina standing there alone, staring at his back in a daze.

In the past two years, the boy has grown up a lot.

His hair was longer, dark and thick, pulled back in a ponytail.He was taller, and Rina needed to raise his head to see his expression clearly.

His hands are also bigger, and he can easily hold Rina's hand.

In the evening, when Rina returned home, her father was sitting there drinking wine, as if there was something very happy, and talking to his mother who poured him wine.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head and saw Rina who had come back. He called Rina over with a smile and said, "Rina, this is really good news. I'm so happy."

Rina was confused, looked at him after saying a word, raised his head and took a sip of wine and laughed, couldn't help but tilted his head in doubt, wondering if he was sick or mentally ill.

Rina's mother raised her hand, touched Rina's cheek with a smile, and said, "It's the country, their family wants you to marry Master Yansheng."

Rina: ...

Rina felt that there seemed to be something wrong with her ears, and she seemed to have heard something terrible just now.

let her...

marry whom?

Ji Guoyan wins?

Are these people crazy?

Rina recalled what Iwakatsu said in the afternoon, and the way he talked to him, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger, the feeling that seemed to penetrate the heart...

"The following country is a samurai family, and marrying Master Yansheng is really the best choice for Rina."

Father said happily.And the mother seems to think that the successor country is very good.

Their samurai spirit is not only compatible, but also the successor country is very rich. As a mother, she also hopes that her children can live a better life.

Rina pursed her lips, without a trace of a smile on her face.

Rina's father finally had the vigilance that a samurai should have, and noticed something was wrong in her quietness.

He put down the wine glass in his hand, frowned and asked her, "You don't want to?"

Although it was in a questioning tone, from his daughter's eyes, he could clearly see her undisguised thoughts, she was really unwilling.

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "You still remember Young Master Yuanyi!"

Rina was startled, for some reason he brought the topic up to Yuanyi again.

The reason for her reluctance is obviously that she is only nine years old now! Nine years old!Ji Guoyansheng was the same age as her, both a nine-year-old child, so he said whether to marry or not.

Even if it's playing games, she doesn't have the fun of marrying a child, okay?

But her reaction made this man think that Ji Guoyuan was the most important thing in her heart, and what she liked was the child who disappeared two years ago.

"impossible!"

He suddenly said so.

"What?" Rina froze for a moment, not knowing what he meant.

"You must marry Young Master Yansheng! This is an order. As a warrior, you must obey your master's order and you must not resist!" He said seriously, frowning.

But Rina just kept her mouth shut, refusing to nod or speak.

In the end, her father was so angry that she was locked up at home, and she was not allowed to go anywhere recently.

The sound of the door lock being clicked outside the door shocked Rina for a moment.

No, really locked her up?

She ran to the door in a hurry and pulled the barrier door, but when she found that it couldn't be opened, her heart sank.

——This is... this era...
