'Then let me stay by Shadow's side forever. '

resign?Now you say you want to resign?

After a while, the general turned into a shadow, and she walked out of Yixin Pure Land.

Shadow raised his head and said:

"...Let him come to me himself."

The snow melted on the steps, and it was white, just like the white cherry blossoms that covered the steps that day.

In Xue's slowly moistening voice, Ying was inexplicably agitated.

ps: Ah, the seal is posted... so lonely.

Stand-alone codewords are a bit uncomfortable... The only interaction between the author and the readers is the backstage, and the readers can see the votes cast by the readers.

Try to vote for it, let me know that there are readers-you are reading it.

"..Tell him to come to me in person."

On the throne, came slightly cold words.

When she heard this, Qingye Shaluo, who was still drooping her head, trembled slightly, she lightly pursed her thin lips, her fingernails slightly sank into the flesh, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then regained her composure.

Then——since she entered the hall, she raised her head once, looked straight into Naruto's eyes, and met Ying's eyes.

Inazuma has many officials, and many people visit the castle tower every day, but few people look at Narugami.

Just by being stared at by those lonely purple eyes, ordinary people will feel the majesty like a mountain, and the roaring thunder can be faintly heard in their ears.

Do not look directly at God.

But Sara met Ying's questioning eyes straightly, without fear or hesitation, and even said, with a bit of recklessness and offense:

The golden eyes are like a lake mixed with the sun, without a trace of waves, calmly confronting Ying's eyes:

"His Excellency Zhu Guo is sick at home and cannot come."

Refuse.

This is the word of refusal.

Refused Naruto's call.

Kiyono Sara's voice was very soft, but it sounded heavy in the silent hall. The howling cold wind fell on the rime on the wooden windows, and the snow fell. In addition, the castle tower fell into a snow-like silence. .

"What else did he say?"

The shadow face is expressionless and authentic.

The wind outside the window was so annoying, it whistled against the torii gate, making a noisy sound, which made His Excellency Narugami feel a little annoyed.

For 100 years, he hid in that mansion as if he had died. Because of the hunting order and the sequestration order, he repeatedly disobeyed the will.

It was fine to resign from the position of general to protest, but this time he resigned as a servant.

It doesn't matter if you resign from the position of close servant or not, it's just hiding in the mansion and dereliction of duty, how can you talk about the term close servant?

Are you insulting her by sending this girl to continue her job now?

Ask him to speak in person, but excuse his illness.

What you said that day, what you promised, was actually broken?

She looked down at the young girl indifferently, and calmed down her mind for a hundred years. At this moment, "...what did he give you back?"

"There is a letter."

Kiyono Sara took out a sealed letter from the inner lining.

letter....

For a hundred years, he has not written a letter.

Ying waved lightly, and the letter automatically escaped from Sara's hand, twirled like snow, and fell into his slender hand.

She opened it, but only saw the first line, and she frowned slightly.

Very official term.

Also very polite, very frank, very respectful.

Very alienated.

This is a letter of resignation.

Begging for bones.

...Although he is conscientious and conscientious, the minister is exhausted physically and mentally...

"Today's rice wife is bright, the wind is shining, the sky is clear, and the sky is clear. I really look up to the light of the gods. I can go away with peace of mind and beg for bones to take care of my life. Although I refrain from anger and work hard, I am physically and mentally exhausted. Although I am ambitious, I will do my best. However, things are becoming more and more exhausted, age is increasing, illnesses follow each other, and if the burden is heavy, I am afraid that if it is slack...the time is running out."

Kiyono Sara watched Shadow quietly.

"However, the position of the royal guard is very important. I have a daughter who is a gentleman..."

tear.

Ying only read half of it and tore up the letter.

The snow seemed to have stopped.

The world is eerily quiet.

"This old man should really be beheaded." Ying said coldly, "Sue the old man? Begging for bones?"

"Are you looking for these reasons just to humiliate me?"

The purple xuan eyes are still calm, but deep in the eyes, between the deep purple clouds, there is a faint flickering, not so calm thunder.

That's right... Ha.

You guessed it right.

Kiyono Sara listened to Naruto's words and said in his heart.

Your Excellency Narugami, it is exactly as you predicted.

Only she knew that everything Zhu Guo wrote in this letter was true.

There is no reason, no humiliation, no excuses, every word is sincere.

The Patriarch is really about to leave.

But precisely because it is true, Narugami thinks it is a fake, an excuse to fool people.

Because we have been together for 500 years, Your Excellency Naruto knows Zhu Kingdom very well.

That man, no matter how badly he was hurt, no matter what kind of hardships he encountered, he would never voluntarily fall down, and he never gave in. He was like a stubborn calf, arrogant and terrifying, and he would be strong for the rest of his life.

If you are really old and going to die, it is impossible to take the initiative to write in the letter something like 'weakness' and 'time is running out'.

There is only one possibility for writing this way, and that is to use old age as an excuse to deliberately resign to demonstrate like the last time he resigned as a general!

On the contrary, if he wrote something in the letter, "it's terrible to grow old and strong", Narugami would suspect his physical condition instead.

But obviously, Zhu Guo knows Ying better than Ying knows Zhu Guo...

Sara silently watched the furious Narugami in front of the court, and the words he had talked with Kiyono Leiming that day emerged in his mind:

"Sara, where do you think Inazuma's enemy is...?"

"It's the practice of the heavens-filling one's own pockets, deceiving the upper and lower, and I'm going to take Jiutiao's house right now..."

"Ha, you still have the same temper. But one nine is gone, and there is a second nine."

"You have to think more, think farther away... think, listen, Daozuma's biggest enemy is not the execution of the heavenly leader, the lock-up order or the eye-hunting order, not on the island, but in the sky, in the Mingshen around."

"Mingshen is very powerful."

"Oh, strong? I think she is as weak as a child. Fools are by her side, and those who practice are also by her side. What she says and the decisions she makes are all related to Dao's wife's life and death. I still She is alive, so the Fools and Feng Xing still dare not speak more, but if after I die, there will be no one around her, and they will dare!"

"..."

"You're going to her side, you're going to protect her instead of me, you're going to protect her from those people, you're going to—"

Sara still remembers that day, in the snow, by the stove, in the first sunshine, Dazhuguo smiled and said this, his silver-gray eyes were empty, as if his sight was not here, in the distant past , in the midsummer cherry blossom days:

——"You will always stand by her side instead of me."

"This is the oath I, Qingye Leiming, made."

Sara still looked at Narugami in the hall, obviously, she was angry after a long absence, or in other words, she was angry at Zhu Guo.

To make fun of her anger under the pretense of sickness and old age.

But actually...

In this world, only Kiyono Sara understands Zhu Guo and understands his heart.

He obviously has done everything well, he can obviously be more free, and he can obviously live more freely and freely.

But he would rather let Narugami resent him than make Narugami sad.

Willing to lie in Mingshen's heart to deceive the king, madly

I don't want to tell her about her arrogant and always flamboyant image;

'Hey, I'm really dying of old age'

I am an old man who is snuggling up to the fire, wrapped in a thick winter coat, shivering in the cold wind, and dying of old age.

Naruto can let go of the psychological burden, leave him behind, and return to Yixin Pure Land with peace of mind, and continue to pursue her eternity.

Looking at the woman on the high platform, seeing her scolding Zhu Guo, seeing her not understanding anything.

For some reason, Kiyono Sara was also a little annoyed.

But more, envy, or jealousy?

He dedicated his whole life to her, from the joy of youth to the loneliness of death—but she didn't know it yet.

"Your Majesty Mingshen." Shaluo lowered her eyes and said calmly, "What's your answer?"

Shadow paused.

half an hour.

She said coldly: "Since he wants to leave, then I will do as he wishes, and you will come tomorrow."

After saying this, Ying turned around, and the sweet-scented osmanthus stepped on the cold hall.

Snowflakes fell from behind her, and she didn't take a step back.

"Go back and tell him, don't regret it."

---

Ying left the main hall, and in the empty castle tower, only Kiyono Sara was left.

The disturbing snowflakes were scattered in the early winter air, Kiyono Saura raised his head.

——Sure enough, she agreed in a fit of anger.

Under the crown of Zhu Guo, everything is as you expected.
