At this time, I was thinking deeply about the endgame on the chessboard.
sand!
At this moment, a soft sound came.
The man in embroidered clothes swayed and appeared outside the pavilion.
"What's the matter?"
Regarding the appearance of the man in embroidered clothes, the prince said without raising his head.
His words were indifferent and his eyes were fixed on the chessboard.
Not a moment's movement.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince..."
After hearing the words of the prince, the man in embroidered clothes said: "The masters from Japan have arrived..."
"I'm waiting for you in the lobby right now..."
"oh?"
After hearing this, the prince slowly raised his head: "Japan is thousands of miles away based on this..."
"They actually arrived in the capital so quickly..."
"This shows that they are very anxious!"
Having said this, the prince shook his head.
He picked up a chess piece and said softly: "How many people are here?"
"Hui Shizi..."
Hearing this, the man in embroidered clothes said: "Five..."
Snap!
As soon as these words were spoken, the chess piece in the prince's hand fell on the chessboard.
There was a hint of surprise on his face.
He never expected that only five people from the Japanese imperial family came this time!
"snort"
At this time, he snorted coldly and said: "After all, the East China Sea is a small place..."
"In the past, the foreign envoys died unexpectedly, and the Yi people sent a boatload of envoys..."
"Only five people came from Japan..."
“It’s really hilarious!”
Listening to the prince's words, the man in embroidered clothes beside him didn't say much.
Seeing this scene, the prince dropped the chess record in his hand: "Let's go, wait for me to change clothes and take a look in the hall..."
"Look what these five people from Japan are like!"
After saying this, the prince took steps towards the room.
…
A moment later, the main hall of the palace.
The prince put on a rich brocade robe and walked into the hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, he saw five men sitting on the left side.
Taro from before was now serving carefully at the side.
These five people wore bamboo hats and dark gold feathers.
There is also a katana across his waist.
Especially the katana of the person in the center is even more outstanding.
Not only is the sheath made of ebony, but it is also rimmed with gold thread.
There is also a blooming chrysanthemum engraved on the handle of the knife.
Under the illumination of light, it reveals a bright brilliance.
Sixteen-petal chrysanthemum…
Kikuichimonji…
Glancing at the chrysanthemums engraved on the blade, the prince thought to himself.
Even though he is wearing a hat, his appearance cannot be seen clearly.
But this sword still shows its extraordinary status!
Seeing this scene, the prince couldn't help but think secretly.
This is the man in the center.
Who is it?
Although he was extremely shocked, the prince still had a smile on his face.
He looked at the crowd and said: "You have come all the way from Japan, but you have to wait a long way to meet us..."
"I would like to forgive you all..."
After saying that, the prince was ready to bow his hands.
"Your Majesty, you don't need to be polite..."
Seeing this scene, the leader of the five people said: "We all know the cause of the matter from Taro's letter..."
"Musashi died in Jinling. His body was torn into pieces by his captain, leaving only a severed hand..."
"If the Crown Prince hadn't informed us, we might still be in the dark!"
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his hand.
Wow!
At the end of the day, a man wearing a dark gold feather fabric stood up.
He placed a box in front of the Crown Prince.
After opening it, I found that it contained a whole box of gold!
"This bit of gold is no respect..."
When the box was opened, the leader's voice came slowly: "This can be regarded as a thank you gift for the prince to find Musashi..."
This person speaks in a low voice and is old-fashioned.
When calling the crown prince, he did not include the word "His Royal Highness".
There is a sense of indifference between the lines.
His attitude was very different from the Japanese people he had come into contact with before.
"Brother Musashi and I hit it off right away..."
Thinking of this, the prince said: "He encountered a great disaster, so it is my duty to do this..."
"I don't know what to call you..."
"We are all our own people, so we might as well take off our hats and talk..."
At this time, the prince wanted to know who this person was!
hehe…
After hearing the words of the prince, the leader laughed: "What the prince said makes sense..."
"In that case, let me show my true face..."
After saying this, the leader slowly took off his bamboo hat.
Suddenly, an old man with white beard and hair and sharp eyes appeared in front of everyone!
Nobuhide Kamizumi!
Seeing this scene, the prince's eyes suddenly widened.
He never expected that the person in front of him was actually the Japanese swordsman, Nobuhide Kamizumi!
This man has been obsessed with kendo his whole life and is the kendo master of the Japanese royal family.
Nobuhide Kamizumi, Seimori Ito, and Gengoro Chiten were collectively known as the Three Heavenly Dogs under the Emperor.
They are the three strongest people besides the Emperor.
It was these three people.
Only the royal family can compete with the Dao Sect.
Among them, Nobuhide Kamizumi is the leader of the three royal dogs and the strongest one among them!
"It turns out to be Kamiizumi-senpai!"
Seeing Nobuhide Kamizumi, the Crown Prince quickly saluted: "I have admired his name for a long time, and when I saw him today, he was truly extraordinary!"
"Your Majesty is overly praised..."
Seeing the crown prince's salute, Nobuhide Kamizumi bowed slightly: "I'm just an old fool..."
"This time His Majesty the Emperor learned of Musashi's death and specially sent me to the Central Plains..."
"First of all, I want to thank the prince for informing me..."
"The second step is to kill the person who killed Musashi and make him pay with blood!"
"Now that the first thing has been completed, it's time for us to head to Jinling..."
After saying this, Nobuhide Kamizumi stood up.
Obviously ready to leave.
"Senior Shangquan..."
Seeing Nobuhide Kamizumi stand up, the prince said, "I can be considered Musashi's friend..."
"How about I send some people to lead the way for seniors?"
"Let's avenge His Highness Musashi together?"
hehe…
After hearing the prince's words, Kamizumi Nobuhide shook his head.
He put on his bamboo hat again and said, "Your Majesty, you don't understand me..."
"In the past, I also traveled across the ocean to travel to the Central Plains..."
"Not only did it allow me to see the profoundness of the Central Plains martial arts, but I also learned something about the territory..."
"I still recognize the location of Jinling..."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't worry!"
As he spoke, he bowed slightly and said, "Farewell!"
After saying this, he glanced at Taro who was standing aside.
He immediately turned around and walked outside.
Seeing this scene, the four men and Taro stood up quickly.
After saluting.
Then he followed Nobuhide Kamizumi and walked outside.
"Master Shangquan..."
After leaving Prince Yu's Mansion, Taro quickly chased after him: "Why don't we let His Highness the Crown Prince help..."
"With his help, wouldn't it be easier for us to avenge His Highness Musashi?"
"Taro..."
Hearing this, Nobuhide Kamizumi raised his eyebrows and said: "Walking in the world is like walking in a heavy fog..."
