Civilization Guardian Front

Although the meeting scene was a bit different from what he had imagined, Chios did not forget his purpose of coming.

"Before I came to your house, I thought that Katsuya would worry about His Highness Nobuna and Mr. Nobukatsu, who knows..."

As he said that, Chios' eyes fell on more than a dozen rice balls in a vermilion lacquered wooden box, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"I eat so desperately because I'm worried and I have nothing to do..." Sheng Jia, who felt that he was about to be treated as a big eater, waved his hands in a panic and explained.

"Because, because the only time you don't worry is when you eat!"

Nobuna was under house arrest for three days, and other retainers did not dare to come to visit her. Apart from the rumors from the streets and alleys heard by the servant girl when she went shopping, she had no other sources of news at all.

The fact that Oda Nobukatsu used Chios as a condition to threaten rebellion has always been stuck in her mind. On that day, Nobuna's lifeless face like a puppet made Katsuka unforgettable and sad.

Thinking of this, Singer's eyes lit up, he grabbed Chios' shoulder and shook, saying:

"Do you know the situation of Her Royal Highness, and Lord Xinsheng, please tell me!"

"Hmm..." The gentle smile retracted, and he crossed his hands in a thoughtful gesture, adding a bit of seriousness to Chios' serious expression in the blink of an eye.

"His Royal Highness Nobuna fell ill, I believe you should have heard about it even if you stay at home?"

"I know...but I don't believe it."

Even though he said he didn't believe it, the uneasiness revealed by Singer's trembling voice for a moment was captured by Chios.

Chios, who lowered his head in thought, had a strange light flash in his eyes.

"I didn't believe it at first, but..." He deliberately paused here for a few seconds, deepening the tension of the topic, and then said:

"All the retainers, including me and Manchiyo, went to Honmaru to ask His Highness Nobuna, and were rejected without exception."

"what?"

Sheng Jia took a step back involuntarily, instinctively rejecting the words she heard just now, but her heart was still unable to avoid being disturbed.

"More than that, there is even worse news..." Chios rubbed his temple with one hand, sighed before continuing:

"Hearing that His Royal Highness Xinnai is seriously ill, Lord Xinsheng has raised his troops to rebel, and sent troops to attack Mingzuozhai early yesterday morning."

boom!

The two pieces of news struck Sheng Jia's heart like thunder.

She longs for His Highness Nobuna, who follows her figure and guards her smile, to recuperate from a serious illness; her theoretical lord, Oda Nobukatsu, rebels, openly hostile to His Highness Nobuna, and even sends troops to attack His Highness Kawato's Nazukazhai.

Obviously, it was all the situation that Sheng Jia didn't want to see, how could it happen one after another within two or three days?

She just stood there, staring blankly at the front, without any focal length in her eyes.

"After all, Lord Nobukatsu made such a request, His Highness Nobuna may have gotten sick with anger..." Chios said his "guess" about Nobuna's condition with a solemn expression.

Then, he made up again:

"Sigh, no one thought that Mr. Xinsheng would take advantage of others' danger and send troops with no regard for the overall situation and blood and family ties."

"...No...Impossible...I won't..." Knees softened, Singer sat on the ground slumped, and murmured in despair:

"It's all my fault. I failed to stop Lord Xinsheng from making that stupid request, and it made Her Royal Highness fall ill because of it!"

"Everything is my responsibility..."

With a backhand, he drew Wakizawa from his waist, and the mirror-like side of the dagger reflected Singer's face full of despair and self-blame.

With the tip of the knife pointing towards her, the girl pulled her skirt, revealing a smooth and slender waist, and two large lumps of white soft flesh on her chest... The shame of showing a large piece of skin in front of a man is completely covered by negative emotions at this moment.

Even Chios was taken aback by the sudden action of the girl with ponytail. He didn't care about admiring the beautiful scenery in front of him, and quickly stretched out his hand to grab Singer's wrist that was holding the knife instead.

"Stupid, don't stop!"

"Let go of me, Chios, I want to apologize to Her Royal Highness through seppuku!"

He didn't listen to the young man's words, and the winner, who was stronger than Chios, kept the blade close to his lower abdomen when his hands were held.

"His Highness Xinnai is just sick. If you hear the news of your seppuku after you recover, you won't be so angry again!" Chios did not give up his verbal offensive, and reprimanded with a heartbroken expression:

"And what about me and Wan Chiyo, are you going to leave us and leave, and let the living take care of the aftermath for you?"

"Oh, ah, ah, my head hurts so badly!"

when!

The hand holding the knife loosened, and Wakizashi fell to the ground.

"I'm just an idiot..." Sheng Jia covered his face with his hands, not wanting to expose his weak and helpless appearance in front of his friends.

"I don't know...what the hell should I do?"

Only girls who are good at martial arts can't think of any way other than seppuku...

The corner of Chios' mouth floated quietly, and he leaned close to Singer's ear, with a gentle tone:

"There is one thing that only you, Singer, can do."

"What?" The fingers covering the face slightly opened a gap, revealing the hopeful eyes of the girl behind.

"You, as Lord Shinkatsu's retainer, go to Mamori City, persuade Lord Shinkatsu to surrender, and beg His Highness Shinnai to forgive..." At this point, Chios changed the subject.

"Even if His Highness Nobuna is sick in bed, Nobukatsu-sama can't win. You, Katsuya, know what I and Manchiyo are capable of, don't you?"

Singer nodded silently.

Even if she wholeheartedly fights for Xinsheng, there is no way she can win the joint efforts of Chios and Changxiu, she understands this very well.

(Yes, Mr. Xinsheng will definitely lose in rebellion, why do you insist on going your own way?)

Even if Shibata Katsuya followed Nobukatsu in rebellion, they would still lose, but it was the people of Owari who suffered.

(It's better to persuade Mr. Nobukatsu to surrender...)

Seeing the movement in Shengjia's eyes, Chios's words were bewitching, and he made a promise to make the girl feel at ease:

"As long as Mr. Xinsheng sincerely admits his mistakes, I will do everything I can to persuade His Highness Nobuna to forgive Mr. Xinsheng."

Chapter 56? Traitor

"I understand..." Singer's gray-blue eyes shone with determination, and he solemnly nodded to Chios with determination.

However, she soon showed distress again.

"Those soldiers outside the gate..."

"It's okay..." Chios waved his hand lightly, interrupting the other party's conversation.

"The ashigaru sent by Her Royal Highness have been transferred by me, Singer, you can freely enter and leave the mansion."

"Really?"

She had already done everything well, and planned to leave even if she knocked out those soldiers... Unexpectedly, the problem that troubled her a few seconds ago was solved by her friend in an understatement.

(Sure enough, Chios is much stronger than me...)

"Okay!" Singer clenched his fists, and a warm current filled his heart.

"It's not too late, I'm leaving now!"

After finishing speaking, the girl immediately strode outside.

"Wait!" Putting a hand on Singer's shoulder, Chios pulled her back, pointed at Singer's exposed chest and abdomen and asked:

"Don't tell me you're actually planning to go out in this look."

"Huh?" Singer, who was pointed out by Chios that his clothes were disheveled, was stunned for a while, looking down.

Due to the attempt to cut seppuku just now, I tore off the pajamas (pajamas), revealing most of the plump white fruit. The small cherry blossom-colored granulation at the top stood upright due to the cold, and the waist and abdomen without a trace of fat were flat and smooth after exercise, which was exposed together with the navel in youth. under sight.

"Chios! You, you, you..." Singer's eyes were filled with tears, and he pointed at the young man in front of him with trembling bare hands.

"How long have you been looking at it?"

1 minute later...

"Being seen, being seen, being seen..."

Surrounded by his own body, Singer shrunk into a small ball and squatted on the ground, staring at Chios as if he was complaining about something.

"If I hadn't reminded you, Singer, you would have been looked down upon by others..." Chios spread his hands helplessly, and made an excuse for himself:

"But that's absolutely impossible. How can I be willing to see you, Singer, by other men?"

"Humph..."

As if she heard some reassuring speech, although the girl snorted, her complexion eased greatly, and she stood up with a blushing face.

Snapped!

Patting his cheeks with his hands, he dispelled the messy thoughts in his head, and his face gradually returned to normal.

This time, after making sure that his clothes were fine, he put on the armor he usually wears when he goes out, with the tachi Wakizashi tied around his waist, and Shibata Katsuie finally finished his preparations for going out.

"Then, I'll go to Momori City now." Feeling the awkward atmosphere, Singer said with his face turned sideways.

"I'm sorry to trouble you..." Chios didn't feel unnatural at all, smiling and wishing Singer:

"I wish you good fortune and good luck in everything."

"Um!"

The girl clenched her fist, responded imposingly, and walked towards the door.

Chios was about to withdraw his gaze from watching Singer leave, when suddenly, the ponytail girl paused, turned her head, and called out the name of her friend:

"Chios..."

"Singer, what's wrong?"

Unable to understand the meaning of the other party calling him, Chios could only answer.

"It's nothing, I just feel..." Sheng Jia scratched his cheek a little embarrassedly, his eyes drifted, as if he was thinking about how to speak.

After a few seconds, the girl finally honestly said what she was thinking:

"It's really great to know Chios."

"..." Hearing this, Chios stagnated slightly.

"Yeah, I'm glad I could help you too."

"Thank you for always helping me who is an idiot..." Singer shook his fist towards Chios in the air, and on his beautiful and heroic face, there was a girl's heartfelt smile.

"I will not let Chios down!"

After saying this, Singer turned around vigorously and ran towards the mansion.

The girl's figure disappeared, leaving only Chios in the huge courtyard...

bump!

A punch hit the pillar, leaving a fist mark on the thick and sturdy wooden pillar.

A few drops of bright red blood flowed down the wound on the phalanx joint, penetrating into the wood three points...

"Sorry, Singer..."

......

In the future, Aichi County...

On the official road, a black war horse galloped forward. The warrior on the horse was wearing thick silver and blue armor, the brown horse tail moved with the wind, and his beautiful gray-blue eyes were looking directly at the city not far away.

After bidding farewell to Chios, Singer jumped on his horse and rushed towards Mosen City.

The afternoon sun shone directly on the metal armor, and the temperature rose rapidly, making it unbearably hot.

Pulling the reins, the war horse raised its front legs, stood up and stopped running.

"call..."

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, Singer couldn't help showing a serious look on his face.

Although he was rushing to Mosen City at full speed, on the way, he remembered what Chios had said about Xinsheng sending troops to attack Mingzhongzhai. Shengjia slowed down on the road passing Mingzhongzhai, carefully avoiding breaking into the battlefield.

I thought I would see Mo Sencheng's army attacking Mingzhongzhai from a distance, but there was no cry of killing from the place that was supposed to be a battlefield.

This aroused great doubts in the girl's heart, she didn't think Chios would lie to her...

Approaching Mingzuo Village cautiously, and squinting his eyes to observe carefully, Singer found that the walls of the village were really covered with traces of fierce fighting.
