[Summary] Her Royal Highness the most beautiful woman in the world
Chapter 29 Flowers and Water
"Ah, the weather is so cold, how about this old man come in and have a cup of hot wine?"
"Hey, okay, when I see you, Madam Boss, I'm in a much better mood!"
"Hehe, you can really talk."
It’s been a while since I’ve seen each other, the proprietress of Xiaodiwu entertained the guests gracefully, I lingered in the nearby alleys for a while, I originally planned to go in and have a look at Jianxin, but I gave up after multiple considerations.After all, it is now the Shinsengumi's side, whether he recognizes it or not, it is better not to meet.
I lowered the straw hat on my head and disappeared into the crowd, ah!Oops!I haven't bought the crushed radish that Sister Abu asked for yet!
"Master Chiyomiya, you are finally back."
I was holding a lot of things in my arms, and I was frightened by the captain of the seventh division, Gu Sanshourou, who ran towards me. A box of pastries fell down in such a desolate way, which broke my heart.
"What's wrong?" I shook my head regretfully, motioning for him to pick up the box of pastries for me.
"Uh..." The guilt on Captain Gu's face was almost wrinkled, he bent down suddenly, and said in a deep voice: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Chiyomiya, because the rescue of our Seventh Division was late, causing brother Ling and your surname Injured and unconscious, this is our default, regardless of any punishment—”
I interrupted him with a gentle smile, and said: "It doesn't matter, the man is outside, how can he not get hurt, what's more, I believe you have tried your best, if you want to say punishment, it should be that I have to teach those two people a lesson." right."
"Huh? But—"
"How are they, I'd better go and have a look, ah, sorry, Captain Gu, can you please help me deliver the things to the room?"
"Ah! Yes!"
"Thank you."
I stopped the captain who was serious and a bit too serious, turned around and walked towards their room. It was just a minor injury, so there shouldn't be any problem.
Even though I was thinking like this in my heart, I still couldn't help worrying. I quickened my pace and opened the door with one hand.
"teacher?"
The light in the room was very weak, and it even felt a little dark. The air was filled with the smell of potion, which made it even more depressing. Ling sat on the mattress, with a white gauze wrapped on his forehead. When he saw me coming in, he showed a light and warm smile. smile.
I was startled, paused in my steps, and walked slowly to him and sat down. Before he could speak, the expression on his face froze, and the smile slowly fell, turning into bitterness and shame at the corners of his lips, " I'm sorry, teacher, I failed to keep my promise with you..."
This child is so kind and gentle, I feel like I was hit by something lightly, and I was speechless for a while.
"Teacher..." Ling glanced at me anxiously, then lowered her head again, "I'm sorry, I let you down."
I opened my lips and was about to speak when Xiao Bai, who was sleeping soundly beside me, sat up like a dead body. He gave the stunned Ling a hard look, and when he looked at me, his expression quickly turned into a defeated one. Rooster, his face turned pale, his fingers gripped the quilt, tremblingly said: "It's my fault, I'm more wrong than him... I lost money... and I wanted to play tricks on Ling... It was he who protected me, and still I got hurt, it was my fault, I was immature...childish..."
"Don't think that you can let you go just by apologizing." I said with a straight face, "Apologizing for doing something wrong is useless. The correct way is to find a way to remedy it! Bai, did you ignore everything I said?"
Before I finished speaking, I regretted that I was too strict. This kid, no matter what I do, I never blamed him. It's just...
Seeing him bow his head with a pale face and his thin body trembling slightly, I couldn't bear it, so I shifted my target and said sternly: "And you, Ling, you are too reckless! Don't provoke an enemy who is incapable of fighting. Lest you lose your life in vain!"
There was a low-pressure silence. Seeing that the two of them had a good attitude of admitting their mistakes, with a pitiful look of "I made a mistake and I will reflect on it", I pursed my lips, couldn't help sighing, and said in a low voice: "Nothing happened today. Fortunately, you must not be so careless again, do you know how worried I am?"
I stretched out my arms and touched the heads of the two children gently, not daring to use too much force, and then I couldn't help but hug them into my arms full of warmth, and said softly: "You are very important to me, you must protect them." Take care of yourself and don't worry me, okay?"
"Yes, I'm sorry..." Xiaobai said in a trembling voice, grabbing the skirt of my back with one hand and holding it tightly.
You must be terrified, it’s okay, it’s okay, Xiaobai!
"Teacher...I'm sorry...for making you worry..." Ling's voice was low, she leaned against my arms motionless, breathing very lightly.
I understood from a long time ago that no matter how much monsters despise human beings, no matter how short their lives are, the most touching and strongest things are precisely the unique emotions that human beings have.It is a treasure that even monsters who have gone through a long time cannot possess, but they are extremely longing for.
Fortunately, I still have half a human soul in my body.Even though I can't remember much, the things I experienced and the people I met during my time as a human being.But that feeling of happiness, I will never forget it in my life.
Because of this, I want to teach you how to love, tolerate, understand, care, trust and communicate.
I am also studying hard. It is you who make up for my lack of parts and teach me important things so that I will not forget them.
"As an elder, as a mentor, I also have an unshirkable responsibility, so, in the same way, after you have reflected on it, you have to bear your mistakes and make up for them! Understand?" I patted the backs of the two children and said in a low voice: "Fortunately, we are not members of the Shinsengumi, otherwise we would have to undergo seppuku. Well, you are in my charge, so I think we should be fined to clean the temple together!"
"clean……?"
"temple……?"
Xiao Bai whispered: "Xiao Qian, don't you hate bald donkeys the most?"
I smiled and hugged him tighter, "That's why it's punishment!"
After dinner, I was very unfortunate to be invited by Director Kondo to drink tea. I wondered if I had to criticize my lack of discipline or something, but I didn’t expect that I had just sat down and the tea was still steaming, and the director said, "Mr. Qiandai, I don't know what your ambition is?" She was so shocked that she was overwhelmed.
My whole body was shocked, and I swallowed the words "Live and play until I grow old" in extreme pain, and my expression instantly became sad.
"Why such an expression?" Director Kondo asked seriously and concerned.
I thought for a while, and finally thought through the words in my head, and said honestly: "I thought you would ask me about what happened today, and I was a little surprised for a while."
Of course I understand that it is not "surprised", it is clearly the typical expression of "choking" or "constipation" and "fuck me".
Director Kondo frowned slightly, saying that he didn't believe it, and it was a little weird.
I picked up the teacup, blew hot air on it, and said with a smile, "Why do you ask this?"
Director Kondo smiled and did not answer my question, but said: "When I was young, I was just a stupid boy who didn't understand anything at that time. He only wanted to kill all foreigners and save Japan. The idea is too radical, but he is eager to make contributions and wants to make a big career."
I lowered my eyes and quietly looked at the green tea, which is light in color, fresh and tender, with hidden emerald green and elegant, as if I was drinking its aroma.
"It wasn't until one day that I suffered a huge blow because of my recklessness, and then I woke up and realized that there were too many mistakes in the past..."
Speaking of this moment, Director Kondo sighed deeply, probably because the memories of that time came to the fore, making it difficult to face.
Because the more I think about it, the more pain I feel.
"At that time, the radicals of "respecting the emperor and fighting the barbarians" assassinated Westerners everywhere, eager to go to war with the foreign powers, but I thought that the real "resisting the barbarians" should learn from the West after the founding of the country, and then go to war with the Western powers when Japan is really strong, but , is this true again?"
Director Kondo's eyes fell out of the window, as if he had reached an unreachable place.
"I kept questioning myself in my heart, looking for the right path, and finally decided to serve the country loyally and take the rise and fall of the world as my own responsibility. This is my ambition, and I have the consciousness to sacrifice my life for it at any time. As for whether it is right or not, it is Leave it to future generations to comment, we are a new team, and we only do what we think is right."
He suddenly turned his eyes back, his eyes were like stars in the sky, shining with dazzling luster, "Mr. Chiyo, what is your ambition?"
I took a sip of the tea soup in the cup, the taste was sweet and mellow, the aroma was elegant and high-spirited, if there was anything there, it brought back the memories of the past.
ambition?I really am asking the wrong person, I am a demon, my ambition... It is not so much an ambition, but a wish.
"I went to the street today."
Director Kondo was stunned for a word, and I took another sip of tea and said slowly, "I remember that the duty of the Shinsengumi is to maintain public order in Kyoto, right?"
Director Kondo paused, and replied, "Yes."
I put down the cup, not wanting to put on any superior posture, but since Xiao Tou gave me such a position, he must have expected such a time.
"The Shinsengumi is supposed to maintain law and order and protect the people, but since I came here, I have never seen them respected by the people, but disgusted by them," I paused, and before he could speak, he continued : "I have seen a lot of things in Kyoto these days. Don't think I am really stupid. Some members of the Shinsengumi abused their privileges and used violence. In addition, this point alone can raise objections to the general."
Although he has no time to take care of it at all, unless Tokugawa Yoshiki is too busy to take care of it, and he is too busy at the Edo base camp, he has to take care of it here.What's more, there is Xiaotou...
"Of course, I understand that for the director, all of this is based on the future of Japan, and the Shinsengumi, in name, is an armed group that maintains law and order. The shogunate eradicates the dissident assassination group."
As soon as the words fell, a dark and fierce murderous aura shot in from behind like a sharp arrow, which made me shudder.
Thanks to the support of Xiao Tou, I believe they dare not do anything, but this feeling is really uncomfortable and very unpleasant.
"I'm just a person who teaches swordsmanship. Right and wrong, right and wrong, are not so simple to distinguish. This is an era where many kinds of justice coexist. The correct result is chosen by history, just like you said As for me, what I think is very simple, maybe in the eyes of many people, it is small and humble, but I am not afraid of being ridiculed when I say it." I showed a gentle smile to the solemn and serious director , that is the most sincere answer and attitude.
"I hope to be able to live happily with the people around me, and this is enough."
Director Kondo was stunned. He opened his mouth and showed an expression of "unbelievable" surprise, as if he didn't understand my answer.
However, although the director is not very clear, I believe that the "Deputy Deputy Chief" of the Shinsengumi must understand what I mean.
I will not be your enemy, nor will I be your friend.
"Then, the night is dark, I should go back to rest, Director, please rest earlier, see you tomorrow."
"...Ah, see you tomorrow."
The author has something to say:
The person on the far right is the director!
That murderous guy!
"Hey, okay, when I see you, Madam Boss, I'm in a much better mood!"
