Chapter 1996 The Stagnant Seppuku Ceremony

Having said this, Aochi Shigetsuna looked at Oda Siniang again, hoping to see an expression of panic or fear on her face.

It's a pity that Oda Siniang still dealt with it indifferently, which made Aoji Shigetsuna feel that he was wasting his words.

Aochi Shigetsuna said displeasedly.

"Are you listening to me?"

Oda Siniang nodded.

"I'm listening, please continue. I really want to know, how did she die in the end?"

Aochi Shigetsuna chuckled and said with evil intentions.

"Of course, just like the rumors outside, he died in shame. Haven't you heard the rumors inside and outside the city?

Thanks to her, no one dares to come to my house these days to pretend to commit seppuku and disturb my peace. "

Oda Siniang glanced at Aochi Shigetsuna, her attitude remained firm.

"I've heard some, but they're all vague, so I want to hear what you have to say."

Aochi Shigetsuna felt offended, and his tone became colder and harsher.

"That coward who wanted to escape made my retainer Yan Wuniang discover that there was a piece of bamboo in her scabbard instead of a knife.

She had never thought about committing seppuku, she was just here to get money, so I decided to let her die a worthy death and use her bamboo knife to commit seppuku, and Yan Wuniang would be her intermediary.

By the way, Yan Wuniang is the best swordsman in Pu Sheng's family. Her sword is very fast and she will chop off the head of the seppuku person the moment he completes the ritual, but. . "

Oda Siniang narrowed her eyes.

"but what?"

Aochi Shigetsuna noticed that Oda Siniang's expression finally changed, thinking that she was starting to feel scared, and couldn't help but feel a little excited, so he said fiercely.

“But that coward’s bamboo blade wasn’t as sharp as a sword, and she couldn’t make a deep enough cross in her belly.

Because she could not use the bamboo slices to complete the ritual of seppuku, Yan Wuniang could not cut off her head to relieve her pain.

She had to use her body to press the bamboo pieces hard, rolling on the ground in pain, but she was still unable to complete the ritual of seppuku, and finally chose to commit suicide by gritting her teeth.

After her death, the servant who collected the body reported to me that she had been found to be two months pregnant.

I really didn’t expect that a man would like such a coward. I don’t know what kind of stupid man he is to like such a coward? "

Oda Siniang's cheeks moved and she closed her eyes, seeming to be thinking about something.

Aoji Shigetsuna looked at Oda Siniang and asked with a strange feeling in his heart.

"Do you know this young warrior Ji? Her name is Qianyan."

Oda Siniang shook her head and said.

"do not know."

Aochi Shigetsuna stared at her, seeming to observe the authenticity of her words, and asked again with a threatening tone.

"Then you still want to commit seppuku?"

Oda Siniang smiled.

"Please give me a new set of clothes and prepare me for the ritual of seppuku."

Not seeing fear or flinching in the other person's eyes made Aochi Shigetsuna feel very unhappy and snorted coldly.

"If you are still stubborn, let me help you."

---

In the atrium, Oda Siniang had put on clean new clothes and was sitting in the middle, surrounded by Kamao retainers who were watching the seppuku ceremony.

Sitting on the porch directly in front of him, Aochi Shigetsuna said sternly.

"The ceremony can begin."

Oda Siniang suddenly raised her hand and said.

"Please wait a moment."

Aochi Shigetsuna said displeasedly.

"You want to regret it? Isn't it too late now?"

Oda Siniang shook her head.

"No, I don't want to regret it.

During the seppuku ceremony, I have the right to appoint my own intermediary to chop off my head. "Aochi Shigetsuna nodded.

"Okay, you can specify it."

Oda Siniang smiled.

"I heard that Yan Wu Niang is the one with the best swordsmanship among Pu Sheng's retainers. Please let her explain my mistakes."

Qingdi Shigetsuna nodded while looking around the scene, and suddenly realized that Yan Wuniang was not here, and couldn't help frowning.

"Where's Madam Yanwu? Why hasn't she come yet?"

The retainer on the side replied in a low voice.

"From the time you held the review until now, Yan Wuniang has not shown up. It's strange. She has always been a very responsible person and should not be absent without reason."

Aochi Shigetsuna looked at the indifferent Oda Siniang in front of him, and the uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense. He came behind the barrier with the retainers around him.

"Go in person, go to Yan Wuniang's house and see what's going on with her!"

"Hey, then this Ronin..."

"Let the people outside wear their spears. I think she has a problem and is ready to take him down at any time."

"Hi."

Looking at the back of his retainer leaving in a hurry, Aoji Shigetsuna snorted.

She had a feeling that this Oda Siniang must be related to the tragic death of Qianyan, but even if that was true, so what?

They are just two desperate wanderers. If they die, they will die. How can they change the world?

Back in the atrium, Aochi Shigetsuna said.

"Yan Wuniang is on her way here and will be there soon."

Oda Siniang nodded and said.

"The boss of the family told me an interesting story. Since everyone has nothing to do now, let me tell you a story too."

Aochi Shigetsuna narrowed his eyes.

"You said."

Oda Siniang placed her katana on the white cloth in front of her.

In fact, sword fighting is not suitable for seppuku, but she is so poor that she has no other weapons, and the Kamao family will not prepare a sword specially for her, so she can only use it reluctantly.

Looking at her weapon, Oda Siniang said slowly.

"There is such a young person. She is very smart and hard-working. She is a talented young warrior Ji who should have a bright future.

She also has a man she loves deeply, and luckily, that man also loves her deeply.

The only shortcoming is that her family is not high-class, she has no sleeping background, and her family is also very poor, so there is no way for her to make progress.

Therefore, she can only rely on herself and work hard to give herself and her beloved man a bright future.

But the world is so unfair. A person who works so hard cannot get God's favor and fair competition.

Her plan was good, to buy a good house in the Iga school district, settle her family, and prepare for exams, but it was a pity. . The reality is not as good as planned.

As a result, her lover became sick with worry and became seriously ill in bed. She had to pawn her sword and ran to the local lord's house, pretending to commit seppuku to beg for some money and save her husband.

Maybe to the lord's family, she was a coward who didn't work hard, didn't make progress, and wasn't worthy of being a warrior, but what was wrong with her?

If a society wants to extinguish all the hopes of young people, then such a society might as well be destroyed. "

When Aochi Shigetsuna heard this, he jumped up in anger.

"You really know that Qianyan!"

Oda Siniang's eyes were like lightning, she stared at Aochi Shigetsuna and shouted.

“She just wanted to fulfill her responsibilities as a wife, she just wanted to go back and say goodbye to her husband for one day!

What's wrong with her! What's wrong with her! "

As Oda Siniang spoke, she took something out of her arms and threw it in front of Aoji Shigetsuna.

Aochi Shigetsuna took a closer look and saw that it was a piece of rag wrapped in something, as if it had been torn from clothes.

The rag was embroidered with the crest of the Kamou family, apparently torn from the clothes of a Kamou family warrior.

Suddenly, as if he understood why Yanwu Niang had not appeared for so long, Qingdi Shigetsuna shouted.

"You killed Yan Wuniang! Someone come! Kill her!"
