'What the hell?
When did I leave a letter last night saying that I'll be there today? '
"Is the news true?"
Ryuga couldn't help but ask Tachika Fujimaru and the others for confirmation.
"It should be true, we also saw the letter that Miss Kiyohime took out, and it doesn't seem to be a lie."
Tachika Fujimaru told Ryuga about her experience in the morning.
As she said, after arriving at Tianshou Pavilion in the morning, although several samurai were slightly dissatisfied with them, they were allowed to enter Tianshou Pavilion for the sake of her and Kiyohime's acquaintance. She then saw Kiyohime and learned the whole process of Yagyu Tama Shou's attack last night.
After that, Kiyohime handed over the letter sent by the assassin, and then, probably because she wanted to be close to the Fated Ones, Kiyohime directly rushed into Tachika Fujimaru's arms and asked her to help protect her.
"The letter seems to have just been sent this morning. It didn't say the name, but it said that the assassin will come tonight to assassinate Kiyohime, and the signature of 'Hero Swordsman' was attached at the end." Tachika Fujimaru narrated to Ryuga.
"…"
Ryuga was silent.
He never sent any letter, and it seemed that it could only be someone else's work, and the method of sending the letter was too big, as if they were afraid that others didn't know about it. The possibility of it being done by the remaining four Hero Swordsman was indeed not small.
"If it's related to the Hero Swordsman, we can't sit idly by, so we agreed to Kiyohime's request."
Tachika Fujimaru continued to say to Ryuga: "But we are worried that if it's really a Hero Swordsman, we may not have enough manpower, so we came back and planned to bring Yin Shun with us. By the way, do you have any plans to go and help?"
"… It's good to go."
Ryuga just thought for a while and decided to go to Tianshou Pavilion with Tachika Fujimaru.
Although he was no longer in a hurry to kill the heroic spirit sword heroes, if he could find out the true goal of the mastermind behind them through the heroic spirit sword heroes, then he could force them out earlier. Moreover, the mission itself did not conflict with the timing of breaking through to the Sword Dao realm.
After calling for the Treasury Dean Yin Shun, the group headed straight for the Heavensguard Pavilion.
… …
"It's you bunch of civilians …"
At the gate of Tenshou Pavilion, they met the leader of the group of samurai who was looking for Kiyohime on the streets of the town last time. When he saw Fujimaru Rika and others coming over, his face was full of unhappiness.
"In my opinion, the Princess shouldn't have given the task of protecting her to people of unknown origins like you. Our Chief Warden of Songping has many powerful warriors under his command!"
His expression was very conceited, as if he was proud and complacent because he was a warrior of the Guan family and had a status that was above everyone else.
Tachika Fujimaru's face showed some helplessness.
Her character was quite generous, and she didn't care about some disdain, dissatisfaction, and other emotions and words. Moreover, communicating with the people of this era was like that. The Hero Swordsman always had a natural sense of superiority, even in modern times, not to mention the feudal ancient times. She had long been mentally prepared.
She didn't care, and Fuma Kotaro didn't force it. Musashi and Yin Shun were people of this era, and they had long been accustomed to this kind of thing.
"Interesting, didn't the strongest samurai among you have a hand cut off?"
Only Esders looked at the so-called Hero Swordsman with a condescending look, his eyes were full of contempt, and the words from his mouth directly hit the opponent's weak point.
"What did you say!?"
As expected, the opponent was poked in his weak point, and he suddenly became angry and almost directly attacked.
Although Musashi and Esders didn't like each other, he almost laughed out loud when he saw the situation, and it was with great difficulty that he managed to hold it in.
"Let's stop here, this isn't something you can decide. If you have an opinion, tell your master. Don't block our way here."
Liu Xia glanced at him indifferently. She did not care that he was about to explode from anger and walked into Heavensguard Pavilion.
Tachika Fujimaru sighed helplessly. Whether it was Ryuga or Esders, neither of them were people who were willing to suffer losses. Ryuga was easy to deal with, as she was always cold and indifferent to everything, and rarely commented on others. Esders, on the other hand, had the arrogance of a queen in her bones, and not just anyone could find fault with her.
The Hero Swordsman watched them walk into Tianshou Pavilion. Although he was angry, he could only leave indignantly.
Indeed, he did not have the power to stop them. After all, he could look down on civilians and wandering warriors only because he was the chief chief of Song Ping. He did not have any power at all.
After entering Tianshou Pavilion, they were taken to a living room by the servant.
After a while, Kiyohime's figure appeared in front of them.
"Destiny's Person!"
As soon as Kiyohime appeared, she immediately stretched out her arms and hugged Tachika Fujimaru with excitement and shyness.
"Princess, please pay attention to your identity."
But before she hugged Tachika Fujimaru, a low voice came from behind her, and her footsteps immediately became orderly again.
"Yes … I'm sorry, but Mashou-sama."
Then Kiyohime reluctantly turned her head and bowed slightly to Yagyuu Munenori behind her.
Although she was a princess, compared to Yagyuu Munenori, who was favored by the shogunate, her status was too low. After all, the other party was a person who received a salary in the shogunate.
"Munenori!"
After Yagyuu Munenori appeared, including Ryuga, Musashi, and Tachika Fujimaru, they all looked at each other.
The old man was still dressed the same as yesterday, wearing a gray-black samurai suit, and his short silver-gray hair was very well-groomed. The only difference from yesterday was his broken left arm, which was wrapped in a white gauze at the moment, looking very out of place.
Although he was missing an arm, the expression on his face was still as calm and sharp as before, and his mood was not affected by the broken arm at all.
"Thank you for accepting the princess's willful request to come and protect the princess."
Yagyuu Munenori's gaze swept across several people one by one. When he saw Ryuga, he didn't stop his gaze, only stopping for a moment on Musashi.
From Ryuga's perspective, after Yagyuu Munenori saw Musashi, his heartbeat accelerated again for a moment, and then returned to normal.
"On behalf of Matsushita Chief, I thank you for your contribution. I am currently leading all the samurai in Tianshou Pavilion, so you will also be assigned to your respective positions."
