Madoye Adachi knelt down and kowtowed. He said in Japanese, "Daimyō, the merchant from Nanyan has arrived."
Ishikawa Kusei raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Yining. "Oh? Is the silk she brought really that good? "
"Yes. How would I dare to deceive daimyō? "
Madoye Adachi slapped his fan. "I don't think her silk is that good. Are you interested in her silky skin?"
As soon as he said this, everyone laughed. Even the noblewomen covered their mouths and giggled. They looked at Qin Yining as if they were looking at a rare toy.
Madoye Adachi's heart rippled. He quickly said with a smile, "No, I really want to introduce silk to daimyō." He paused for a moment, then joked, "But I will know sooner or later whether or not her skin is like silk."
His words caused everyone to roar with laughter.
Gao Delai was very angry. He leaned over to Qin Yining's ear and whispered their conversation to Qin Yining.
Qin Yining's hands clenched in her sleeves. She suddenly lost all her patience.
Her purpose was to see Ishikawa Kusei. Now that she had seen him, Madoye Adachi had lost his value. This perverted villain had impure motives from the beginning. Qin Yining had already reached her limit. She was here to do business, not to amuse these people!
Madoye Adachi saw that everyone was laughing. These people's expressions were too explicit. He was afraid of making the beauty uncomfortable. He turned back and said to Nanyan with a smile, "Sit next to me later. I will definitely recommend your silk to all the nobles."
He thought he could get a grateful smile in exchange for the beauty's smile. Who knew that this gentle and shy woman would look at him with a completely unfamiliar gaze.
Madoye Adachi was stunned. Even if he knew that the other party didn't understand Japanese, he knew what he had said to the daimyō. He couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
"Mrs. Yao, you …"
Qin Yining smiled at Ishikawa Kusei. The other party immediately noticed the change in her gaze and aura.
"Brother Gao, repeat my words to him. I'll say one sentence and you'll translate it. "
Gao Delai was already gritting his teeth in anger. Now that he agreed with anger, his voice was even louder than usual.
"Shichuan Daimei, I am the daughter of a noble from Da Zhou. Today, Mr. Adachi recommended me to meet you. It is truly a blessing of three lifetimes. I wonder if Ishikawa still remembers Sakurai Hideaki? "
Adachi Manba's expression changed dramatically. He looked at Qin Yining in disbelief. "What did you say? Aren't you the wife of a merchant? How are you a noble? "
Qin Yining raised her eyebrows and smiled. She had been with Pang Xiao for a long time, so naturally, she had learned some of his arrogance. At this moment, her aura was imposing, and she did not look like a merchant at all.
There was no need for an explanation. He could see through her identity just by looking at her.
Ishikawa leaned over and pointed at Adachi with his paper fan. "Do you know who she is?"
Adachi Manba hurriedly knelt down. "Daimei, this woman told me that she is a merchant! She is … she is using me! "At this point, if Adachi Manba still could not see that he was being used, then he was really stupid.
Qin Yining ignored his murderous gaze and smiled. "Since Ishikawa Daimei is not replying, could it be that you don't remember Sakurai Hideaki?"
Gao Delai repeated Qin Yining's words in Japanese. The entire hall was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Adachi Manba was covered in cold sweat.
Ishikawa Daimei's veins were popping out on his forehead. "Woman, where did you come from? Men, chase her out!"
As soon as his voice fell, the samurai on both sides rushed forward.
Qin Yining did not move. "Ishikawa Daimei is famous for his bravery. I didn't expect that you would be afraid of a woman saying a few words."
The situation was urgent. Gao Delai did not wait for Qin Yining to finish speaking. He had already begun to translate, and his translation was accurate.
Qin Yining said, "Sakurai Hideaki had been loyal to Daimei for many years. In the end, he took the blame for Daimei and died in a foreign land. I am his good friend, so I should bring him back to his hometown. Last time, I arranged for my men to send him here, but Daimei chased them out and did not allow Sakurai to be buried in his hometown. So this time, I came personally to talk to Daimei. In front of so many nobles and samurai, if Daimei avoids Sakurai's matter, it will be hard to avoid suspicion. "
As soon as Qin Yining's voice fell, Gao Delai also finished speaking.
Ishikawa Daimei's face was ashen. His sharp eyes were like knives cutting Qin Yining's face. But seeing this woman's luxurious clothes and imposing manner, he knew that she was a noble from Da Zhou. For a moment, he did not dare to directly make a move.
But if he did not directly discuss Sakurai's matter, the nobles present would also stretch their necks to watch.
Ishikawa Daimei scolded in a low voice, "I don't know what you're talking about. If you're talking about Sakurai Hideaki, then he is a traitor to our Water Swamp Country. He almost caused a war. If you want to bury him, then you have to make sure that his betrayal of Water Swamp Country never happened! I will never allow him to be buried in Water Swamp Country! "
As soon as Ishikawa Daimei finished speaking, the crowd around him responded in unison. The man berated Qin Yining in a language that Qin Yining did not understand. Hearing this, Qin Yining's heart was in turmoil.
Without any evidence, she could not make everyone believe her words, so there was no need to argue.
Thinking of this, Qin Yining sneered, "I'll ask you one last time. Is Daimei Ishikawa really not allowing Sakurai to be buried?"
"Absolutely not!" Ishikawa Daimei stood up angrily.
Everyone stood up with him and glared fiercely at Qin Yining.
Ji Yun and Gao Delai, who were standing behind Qin Yining, tensed up. They were worried that they would pounce on them. Xiao Xue and Jing Zhe, who had been waiting at the door, rushed in and stood behind Qin Yining.
The atmosphere was tense. Qin Yining waved her hand, telling Xiao Xue and Jing Zhe not to be nervous. She said solemnly, "Since Daimei Ishikawa doesn't allow it, then please accept my challenge. Let's settle the issue of whether or not Sakurai Hideaki can be buried in his hometown through a duel. If you win, you can do whatever you want with me. If I win, please tell me the truth about what happened back then and clear Sakurai's name so that he can be buried in his hometown! "
Ishikawa Daimei roared, "I won't accept your challenge. I'll kill you right now!"
Gao Delai's forehead was covered in sweat. He quickly whispered into Qin Yining's ear. Qin Yining smiled. "So Daimei Ishikawa's bravery was just a boast. The rumors were false. You don't even dare to accept a challenge from a little girl like me. I doubt that Water Swamp Country will be able to develop and prosper in the hands of a cowardly rat like you! "
Ishikawa Daimei flew into a rage when he heard Gao Delai's words. He kicked over the table in front of him. "I'll kill you right now!"
