"Since Ryuma called you, that is to say...you are worthy of trusting." Takasugi Shinsaku glanced at Ryuma.
Longma nodded slightly.
Zuocun is absolutely trustworthy, and as for Yizang... he may not understand.
Takasugi nodded with a smile: "Now, the guys from all over the country who shouted to expel the barbarians gathered in Changzhou, but..."
"My view on expulsion of the barbarians..."
Takasugi Shinzu snorted: "It's impossible to do it, but it's still a useful tool."
"Now the shogunate is about to collapse, and the general Tokugawa Ieshima did his best but could not stop the shogunate decline. My thoughts... are to break and then establish."
"Use the name of expelling the barbarians, use military actions to create a real separatist situation, and build a real new zf."
"Do you understand?"
Zuocun and Ryuma looked at each other.
The four people, with the confused Izo together, Zuomura and Ryuma looked at Takasugi excitedly: "From today, you will be our best friend!"
"Oh?" Takasugi and Izumi were confused.
......
63 years passed quickly.
At the end of 1863, headed by Tosa vassal clan Ryuma Sakamoto, Okada Yizang, and Shirakawa vassal clan Anno, a trading company called "Kuchiyama Club" was established in Nagasaki. Many vassal clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan clan cl
Zuocun's hometown was classified as the White River Basilica after killing Tianyin Ghost, but within a few days Zuocun announced that it had left the vassal state, and the people from the White River Basilica would not be thankless to arrest Zuocun.
During this period, Tokugawa Ieshima visited Kyoto several times and kept in touch with Emperor Takaaki.
In recent years, due to the implementation of various policies, Tokugawa Ishiki almost always lived in Kyoto.
After an internal purge, the Xinxuan group returned to peace, and Kondo Yuki's position had been completely consolidated.
It was just that there were a few players missing, and there was no change from before.
At the end of 1863, the Xinxuan Group once again cleared out several spies lurking in the Changzhou vassal expellers.
One day, General Okina entered the morgue to check the bodies and buried the spies who committed suicide by separatism on the day.
The body has been here for a while, emitting a stinking smell.
Chief Okina made a frown and frowned: "Search for some time to bury it. If you put it here, it will probably rot."
"Yes, I understand."
"Ahem, this smell is really bad, I'll go out first." Okita coughed twice and walked out of the morgue.
......
"Cough cough cough!" Okita Main-Shief covered his chest.
The corpses of those spies have been buried for more than a month now, but Okina Soshi felt more and more uncomfortable.
"You're a cough, but I don't know exactly what kind of cough it is." A doctor shook his head.
Okita only asked the doctor a question: "Will it affect my sword drawing?"
The doctor was stunned and shook his head: "At least not for a short period of time."
"That's fine." Okina Main-Shiji stood up and left.
She didn't have much money because the salary of the newly selected group was paid by the Aijin vassal. Now, because of various things, bandits are rampant and taxes are difficult to collect, so the salary of the newly selected group is not much, but it is just a little more than ordinary people.
So Okina Headmaster did not choose to treat the disease.
She had a cough before, but she would recover after a while, so she didn't have to take it to heart, just endure it for a while.
Because of his discomfort, Okina Soshi wanted to apply for a day off for Toshibashi.
She felt that it was not interesting to stay in the house, so she chose to go out for a walk.
Without wearing the light green onion, Okina Headmaster came to Rensheng Village swayingly.
"Ahem." She couldn't help but smile when she heard the children playing in Rensheng Temple.
It is now spring and the sun is warm.
Even though Okina Shin-ji works in Kyoto and is busy with public security all day, he occasionally takes time to return to Rensheng Village to play with these children.
"Don't worry, come one by one."
Just then, Okina Soichi heard a familiar voice.
Her body suddenly became stiff.
Then, Okina Toshiro saw a figure wearing black and white Haori jumping high from the Rensui Temple.
"Left... Zuocun?"
Zuocun saw the girl standing outside Rensheng Temple from a high altitude in a cherry-colored Wu suit, and was also stunned.
......
"I sent Kana back. Kana is not used to living in the south. In addition, the loom is also here, so it's a bit troublesome to take her away, so I sent her back." Zuomura sat on the roof and said to Miss Okita beside her.
"That's right, Nao Na can take care of himself." Okina Toshita agreed to Anno Zuomura's words, feeling a little unreal.
"Yes." Zuomura nodded, "Although I have temporarily placed Kana here, I will still visit Kana from time to time."
Okita said slowly: "Hey, Zuocun, how much time have we not sat together and chatted like this?"
Zuocun was a little silent and shook his head: "I can't remember it, but I know, it's been a long time."
"...Are you my enemy now?" Okita Soshi couldn't help asking.
Zuocun smiled and shook his head: "I participated in a trading company called Guishan Club, which is just a trading company, so we will not be enemies for the time being."
"...what is the future?" Miss Okina's bangs covered her eyes.
Zuocun lowered his head and did not answer.
Miss Okita seemed to have expected it, so she stood up and smiled and said to Zuocun: "I'm not here to chat with you."
She said, jumping off the house.
The children nowadays are no longer the same as they were back then, but the village of Rensheng Village is very energetic, so there are still many children who come to play in Rensheng Temple.
A child grabbed Okina's cuff: "Sister Okina, I haven't seen Mr. Serizawa for a long time. Where has Mr. Serizawa been?"
"He..." Tong Yanwuji, and when Okita heard this question, he looked down involuntarily, "Mr. Serizawa, he has gone to work far away and may not come here in the future."
"Oh—? Why is this?"
"This is also impossible. How about Sister Chongtian playing hide-and-seek with you?"
A drop of sweat fell from Miss Okita's sideburns and began to coax the child.
Zuomura sat on the roof and looked at Okita who was playing with the children, and couldn't help but smile.
He sighed.
I really hope we are not living in this era, but in an era of more peaceful and stableness.
If that...
However, from Okita's words, Zuomura also heard some other things.
Serizawa went to work far away?
If you are working simply, Okina's expression should not be so depressed...
