[Hokage] Thank you for loving me

Chapter 76 Battle in the City of Fire Part 2

On the top floor of the Xiyuan Loft, when you exit the stairs, you will find an open-air sky courtyard and a corridor built around the courtyard. Receive courtiers who are favored by the daimyo and who are eligible to enter the inner court.

At this moment, the red light of the setting sun has faded away, and the moon silently climbed up the hill and sprinkled every part of the courtyard in the air. Against the background of the noisy sound of silk and bamboo in the Japanese room, the quiet courtyard scene seemed a bit cold and untimely.

Uchiha Sasuke was drinking tea without saying a word at the place next to the door and directly below the room.When the daimyo and the two courtiers who were chatting with him spoke to him, he only occasionally responded with a sentence; at other times, he didn't have the heart to participate in the conversation, and he didn't have the patience to enjoy the performances of the singers and luthiers. The night scene in the courtyard is empty.

What a boring party.If Kakashi hadn't told him repeatedly before departure that he should maintain the most basic respect for daimyo when he came to the City of Fire, he would never have attended this kind of reception banquet, wearing a cumbersome kimono, sitting with the old men in front of him , Listen to their chatter.Moreover, the so-called welcome banquet is more like the self-entertainment of these high-ranking people. Apart from drinking, chatting and admiring, occasionally talking to him is nothing more than touting his ninjutsu and blood, admiring him. His previous contribution in Ninja War.During his wanderings, those daimyos and nobles from other countries who wanted to win him over had already uttered the same lines badly, and now the daimyos of their own country repeated it, which sounded like a sense of alienation being late.

At this time, a maid came to report that the princess had arrived.Sasuke raised his eyes, and saw Geunhee strolling into the banquet hall with a snow-white cat in her arms.The daimyo put down his wine glass, beckoned her to sit beside him, and smiled lovingly: "Why are you here so late? You made a fuss about holding this welcome banquet for Uchiha-kun, but you ended up being late instead."

"His Royal Highness must have dressed up carefully." A minister who accompanied the wine hurriedly took up the conversation, boasting: "I haven't seen you for more than a month. After the third princess has dressed up this time, she feels even more dazzling."

"Actually, I'm late because I was chased by an annoying bird on the way here just now." Jinji smiled and raised the cat in her hand, hugged it under her armpit, and shook it mischievously , "That bird has been harassing Yutaro, making Yutaro very irritable, so I have to wait for Yutaro to catch it, play with it enough, and finally deal with it before coming." Sasuke looked at Xu for a while, and said with a coquettish smile, "Uchiha-kun is very suitable for wearing such an indigo kimono. Although it is just a simple undergarment and small sleeves, it looks good against his temperament."

"Hahaha, I asked the head maid to help him prepare this."

So, why do you prepare kimonos for the ninja guards, hold a banquet, drink together, etc. No matter how you look at it, you don't take the task seriously.Sasuke glanced sideways at the daimyo at the table, and felt that when he laughed, he was not as clever as the cat named Yutaro in Jinhie's arms.

Another official who accompanied the drink echoed without losing the opportunity: "After Uchiha-kun is dressed like this, how can you tell that he is a ninja? He is simply a nobleman with outstanding temperament, which is quite suitable for His Highness the Princess."

"Hahahaha." With another smile that was stupider than a cat, the daimyo said with emotion: "Before, I was not at ease, thinking that Uchiha-kun was as cold and unkind as the rumors said. Now it seems that he not only Ninjutsu is powerful, his temperament is outstanding, and his appearance matches our Jinji very well. The most important thing is that in the past month or so, he has tried his best to protect Jinji, so that she did not suffer any harm. If Jinji If I leave it to him, I can rest assured."

to him?What are these words.Sasuke smiled coldly in his heart.He didn't express any attitude towards Jinji from the beginning to the end, but these people were talking to themselves and getting more and more enthusiastic.He could see clearly what the main purpose of this welcome banquet was, and it was really inexplicably irritating.However, casual outbreaks in the City of Fire will only complicate the subsequent situation.Anyway, as soon as he finishes his mission, he will continue to wander. These people's wishful thinking, arrangements, etc., let's just listen to it as a joke.

Silently took a sip of tea, only to hear Geunhime follow Daimyo's words: "During Konoha, thanks to Uchiha-kun's protection, I was able to survive the previous attack. Moreover, I said Wanting to return to the city of fire, he also returned with him because he was worried about the safety of my concubine, and he really took good care of my concubine."

"Uchiha-kun is such a gentle and dedicated person." The daimyo nodded gratefully to Sasuke, and then said worriedly: "Unfortunately, during the Konoha period, Kakashi and the others failed to get rid of the gang of thieves. Catch it, I don't know when, Jinji, your crisis will be resolved."

"Father, don't worry, as long as Uchiha-kun is here, he will be caught soon."

"Hahaha, I really trust his ability. However, if you rely too much on a man, it will put pressure on him."

"I'm not very dependent." Jin Ji put the cat on her lap, lowered her head and said coyly while rubbing the fur on the cat's back.

To Sasuke, the two father and daughter's chorus at the banquet was more boring than the bickering between Xianglin and Shuiyue.When he was attacked last time, it was obvious that he was not in the hotel and did nothing, so he was forced to give credit to him, and the unfounded sense of trust derived from it, all of which sounded unreasonable. So hypocritical.Sasuke looked at Geunhee coldly, and happened to meet her eyes, as if he didn't understand the meaning in the indifferent eyes, Geunhee continued to say with enthusiasm: "But we have been together day and night for more than a month, concubine Kami really trusts Uchiha-kun."

Daimyo pondered for a moment, as if he had suddenly noticed Sasuke's silence, so he turned his face and said, "Speaking of which, during the more than a month of getting along, Uchiha-kun, what do you think of us Jinji?"

As if she didn't expect the daimyo to ask such a straightforward question, Jin Ji's eyes were filled with mixed emotions of panic and guilt, and she rushed to reply: "My father is so annoying, how can I ask Uchi in front of others?" What about Bo Jun's question?"

"Hahahaha, can't you ask this kind of question?" Daimyo pampered Geunhee's head and compromised: "Okay then, let me change the question. Uchiha-kun will do his best to catch Jinhee for us. Do you want to live with those thieves?" His eyes, which were somewhat sluggish and cloudy, overflowed with excitement, as if he had something important to solemnly entrust, and Daimyo was expecting Sasuke's answer.Geunhee next to him was very disturbed at this time, she stared at Sasuke with wide eyes, staring at his mouth in fear.

"Of course." The moment Sasuke replied calmly, Geunhee was visibly relieved.Afterwards, Daimyo, who was not aware of all this, patted Geunhee on the back, and smiled with satisfaction: "Very well, then we Geunhee will entrust you to Uchiha-kun." He raised his glass and invited everyone present to drink up Drinking the wine in the room, saying "There are still official business to deal with", and telling Geunhee to stay with Sasuke for a while, then took the two ministers and left the Japanese room in relief.

As soon as the three of them walked out of the banquet hall, Jin Ji raised her eyebrows and glanced at the singer and the luthier in the middle of the hall.

"These people play really badly, why don't I come and play for Uchiha-kun?" The sound of the music stopped immediately, and the two picked up the piano and walked out of the door quickly.Jin Ji clapped her hands, and soon, the maid brought in a three-stringed violin and placed it in front of her, and when she picked up Yutaro and exited, the maid did not forget to close the door of the Japanese room tightly.

In the huge room, just now there was a lot of voices and music, but in an instant, there were only two people left, looking at each other solemnly in the endgame, and the silence was strange.

"Why do you want to hide it from your daimyo?" Sasuke didn't want to waste time with Geunhee, so he pointed it out first: "There is no relationship between you and me."

"I can't understand what you're talking about." Jinji began to pluck the strings and move her fingers, and the three-stringed piano made a dull and flat sound in her arms, which almost covered the voice of speaking.

"I don't like you."

"I know." Geunji suddenly changed her address, and her tone became flattering, "As long as I like you, that's enough. Besides, after getting along for so long, don't you think I'm not good enough for you, Sasuke-kun?" ?"

"It's just superficial hypocrisy."

"You mean, my feelings for you are false?"

Sasuke sneered noncommittally, "Of course. You are acting for your father."

There was no response, and the sound of the strings in the house gradually became more and more rapid, clanging like drums, galloping like the wind, then falling down like a rainstorm, and finally stopped abruptly.

"Sasuke-kun, I am sincere to you." Putting down the shamisen, after saying this, Jinji began to take off her coat, and then took off the clothes one by one from the outside to the inside, and finally Only close-fitting sleeves and unlined garments remain.

"Sasuke-kun, look, I'm already willing to dedicate myself to you for this." She leaned close to Sasuke's ear, and said in a persuasive tone: "As long as you hug me here, rights, beauties, and money will be all gone." I have it. And, from now on, I will do my best to help you revive the clan."

Just as monsters always like to enlarge their bodies as a last resort, cunning women also like to expose their bodies as a last resort.Sasuke turned his head to look at Geunhee's gorgeous face under the candlelight, her creamy white skin, and her exquisite curves. He felt that everything was false, and that there was a hint of struggle and anxiety, which made him uninterested. .

"Go to bed early." Sasuke thought for a while, in this case, probably only this sentence is more appropriate and polite, otherwise it might immediately anger the woman in front of him.He stood up and walked towards the door.

"Wait! Are you rejecting me!?" Jin Ji's high-pitched voice sounded more like screaming in disbelief, obviously still offended by his words and deeds.

Sasuke stopped, and replied impatiently, "Yes." Isn't it obvious that he has been rejecting her from the beginning to the end?

Taking advantage of the moment he stopped, Jinji ran forward and hugged his back tightly, wrapped her arms around his waist, and asked in a gentle and sweet voice, "Is Sasuke-kun embarrassed? It's okay, I don't care. Will ask you something, just after tonight."

Sasuke took her hand, turned his back to her, and said without any ups and downs in his voice: "I don't know why you want to show your kindness to me like this, but you'd better stop doing such futile things."

The people behind seemed to be completely frozen, and there was silence in the room. After a long time, Jin Ji suddenly laughed hysterically: "Sasuke Uchiha, I have already given you such a good opportunity, and you still refuse me?" !" She ran to Sasuke, opened her bright red lips, exposed her sharp white teeth, gritted her teeth, and said bitterly: "You can't see the situation clearly, you asked for it! Don't blame me for resorting to the last resort gone."

Have you finally revealed your true nature?Sasuke kept a cold face, didn't answer, and waited quietly for her next words.

"Yes, I don't like you at all. Approaching you and being nice to you are all for another purpose! However, I'm tired of acting like this. Anyway, tonight is your last chance. If you If you don't hug me, you will regret it soon!"

"Are you threatening me?"

"Yes." A trace of fearless cruelty flashed in Jin Ji's eyes.

In front of her, Jin Ji, dressed in a single white robe, with dark eyebrows and black eyes, stood tall and gloomy under the candlelight all over the room. She didn't have the glamorous princess demeanor at all, but looked more like a seductive temptress.A bad premonition emerged in Sasuke's heart, he stepped in front of Geun-hee, looked down at her condescendingly, "What did you do?"

Jin Ji was probably very confident, and she had no fear of Sasuke's eyes full of murderous intent, and was even delighted by his change of face, and replied mockingly: "Don't you know that the trump card is always in your hand? Did it come out at the end? How could I tell you now that I have prepared some other means behind my back." With a sneer in her nose, she continued: "In short, I have given you enough opportunities If you still insist on leaving, then don't blame me for being cruel!"

Sasuke stretched out his hand impatiently, grabbed Geunhie's neck, and looked at her coldly.Jin Ji seemed stunned by the sudden attack, looked at him in disbelief, and struggled to force out an indistinct voice from her throat after a long time: "You...you, Ju, how dare you treat the princess like this! "

The right eye hook appeared, and the pupils in the eyes spun rapidly. Jinji's mouth was half-opened in fright at the strange scene she had never seen before, unable to express any more words.

"You should be thankful that you are a princess, otherwise I would have killed you long ago." After Sasuke read the information from Jinji's memory, he threw her out heavily. With a muffled sound, Jinji fell sideways on the tatami , Redness and swelling immediately appeared on the thighs and wrists.She was lying on the ground, gasping for breath. After her throat was squeezed forcefully, the sudden influx of air made her cough uncontrollably, but while coughing, she still shouted incomprehensibly: "How dare you treat me like this?" Me! I will make you regret it! I am the princess of the Land of Fire!"

It was so noisy!Sasuke kicked open the door in front of him, and before leaving the room, he finally answered her with a grim face:

"So what about the princess, I can kill the God of Creation."
