Chapter 29 The twenty-ninth day when the system won
Chapter 29 : On the twenty-ninth day when the system won Taking the ladies to do these things was left out of the play plan.
In the middle of the banquet, there is a stage for displaying skills. Both young men and noble ladies can go up and show off their skills, including musical instruments, dancing, and even painting. Of course, this is not mandatory, you don’t have to go if you really don’t like it.
Yukizawa Hanyu had some fun with everyone, and then made a painting. Feeling a little tired, he proposed to walk around nearby.
Everyone knows his temper, and this is also the past practice.
"Don't go too far, be careful."
"Okay, I understand."
Gojo Heng didn't like to stay with them. When Hanyu Yukizawa wanted to leave, he left with Hanyu Yukizawa.
At this time, the distinction between the young master and the noble ladies was no longer clear, so no one noticed that Fujiwara Oriko disappeared at some point.
Even if someone discovered it, seeing that Yukizawa Hanyu was not there anymore, they just thought that the two were exchanging feelings as an unmarried couple. As long as you don't do anything outrageous, no one will say anything.
Although it is a large cherry blossom forest, in addition to cherry blossoms, there are other flowers nearby.
Yukizawa Hanyu was strolling leisurely, and when he saw beautiful flowers, he stopped to admire them, and then walked around in a circle.
A large and pet-like Gojou Tsune was picking rowan grass and kicking pebbles from behind.
The two of them walked in tandem, talking to each other in a very leisurely manner.
He spends most of his time in Kyoto. Although it is prosperous and safe, it can also make people tired day after day. Not to mention he spent most of his time indoors recuperating.
The opportunity to go out for a walk in the countryside is particularly cherished.
Wu Jiao Heng's movements of weaving grass rings behind him suddenly stopped, he stepped forward quickly, pulled Hanyu Yukizawa behind him, and said sternly to a hidden corner: "Come out!"
The air was quiet for a few seconds, and a familiar figure walked out. .
Yukizawa Hanyu poked his head from behind: "Fujiwara-san?"
Gojo's serious expression suddenly collapsed.
'What, why is this guy? "
There were too many people at the banquet and it was too boring, so I went out for a walk." Fujiwara Oriko said.
"Isn't Fujiwara-san accompanied by an attendant? It's not safe to be alone in the woods."
"I just left something behind, so I asked her to look for it, and she came back in a while. Besides, there was a circle of people around here, no. There will be danger." Fujiwara Oriko explained.
Even so, Yukizawa Hanyu was worried and still waited with her for a while.
The two chatted about the current situation, and not long after, a maid came over, not Ling.
Fujiwara Oriko: "Didn't you find it?"
The plain-looking maid looked at Fujiwara Oriko and immediately withdrew her eyes. She lowered her head and replied, "Your Highness, I searched around, but I really didn't see it."
"Forget it. Just throw it away, it's not an important thing anyway." Fujiwara Oriko looked quite regretful.
She paused and said to Hanyu Yukizawa, "Do you want to go back together?"
The two of them had been out for a long time. Hanyu Yukizawa asked Gojou Tsune, and he had no objection, so the three of them went back together.
The gentlemen and ladies at the banquet saw the three of them coming back together, and their faces showed strange expressions for a moment.
"I understand Hanyu and Gojo being together, and I understand Hanyu and Fujiwara being together, but I really don't understand the three of them being together."
"It's no need to think about it, that guy Gojo must have got in."
"Shouldn't it be Fujiwara who penetrated in order?"
"Well, this..."
It seems to make sense.
The party ended when the sun was about to set.
Since then, the exchanges between Yukizawa Hanyu and Oriko Fujiwara have become more frequent, thanks to Fujiwara Kurami.
One day, Fujiwara Oriko said to Ling: "Actually, my fiancé is not bad. We have to get married anyway, so I might as well just have him."
She looks good and feels comfortable.
She has a gentle personality and won't force her to do anything she doesn't want to do.
Her health is not good, and she might die at some point...
No, it doesn't have to be that he dies. If he dies, the family might even arrange a marriage for her, so it would be nice to keep him.
Fujiwara Oriko lowered her head and traced the pattern on her clothes with her fingers. After a while, she said, "Ling, go to my warehouse and look for any better medicinal materials."
"Yes."
Ling was about to go when she was stopped by Fujiwara Oriko.
"Forget it." Fujiwara Oriko stood up, "I'll go and see for myself."
As spring came and autumn came, during the Emperor's birthday banquet, he had a sudden idea that he wanted to hold a birthday banquet at sea this year.
After busy preparations for a long time, not only the court officials were invited, but some officials were also allowed to bring their children.
night.
A gorgeous and huge ship floated on the sea, with countless warm-colored lanterns hanging on it, illuminating the sea brightly.
Several miles away, you can faintly hear the sound of singing, laughter and congratulations in the distance.
Gold and jade curtains, bright moon and pearl walls. The maid wore a red dress with green sleeves and elegant clothes, carrying a tray and shuttled among the dignitaries.
The juniors and elders are not in the same place. As the head of the Gojo family, Gojo Tsune is naturally not in the same place as the unofficial one.
Gojo Heng could only separate from Yukizawa Hanyu in depression.
The ladies and gentlemen are not in the same banquet hall.
Yukizawa Hanyu walked through the corridor and walked to the deck. Compared to the banquet hall, there were fewer people outside, with only the occasional attendant passing by.
Before him, someone was already standing on the deck.
The sea breeze at night made the mast rustle. Fujiwara Oroko straightened her messy forehead, and familiar footsteps were slowly approaching.
The moonlight slanted on his face, and his warm, watery eyes reflected the moon.
Today's banquet is grand, and he is dressed more grandly than usual. He is tall and elegant, proud and clear.
Before coming, they exchanged letters and came out to see each other when the time came.
Yukizawa Hanyu likes to be lively, but he is not sensitive to such banquets. Compared with them, he prefers the annual spring flower viewing banquet.
He doesn't like drinking, and he doesn't have any plans. It's a good choice to come out for some air.
"Oko." Yukizawa Hanyu called with a smile.
Fujiwara Oko smiled reservedly and nodded. When Yukizawa Hanyu came over, he took out a jade safety lock from his sleeve.
The appearance is gentle and delicate, exquisite and translucent. The woven red rope is strung with four small gold beads and two red persimmon-colored agate beads.
It looks beautiful.
Yukizawa Hanyu was a little surprised, "Is it for me?"
"I bought it casually. I think it suits you well." Fujiwara Oriko said pretending to be casual.
After saying that, I felt a little regretful.
"Thank you Oko, I'm very happy." Yukizawa Hanyu didn't feel unhappy at all. The jade was of such good quality and of excellent workmanship, how could it be bought casually.
"As long as you like it." Fujiwara Oriko breathed a sigh of relief.
The melodious sound of silk and bamboo orchestral music is endless in my ears.
Yukizawa Hanyu's voice sounded a little unreal to Oriko Fujiwara's ears, "Ooko, I found the one you mentioned before -"
Boom! boom! !
Click!
Fujiwara Oko's pupils suddenly shrunk, and she panicked and grabbed Yukizawa Hanyu's hand, hugged him into her arms, and led him back.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
"Help ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"
The screams and shouts penetrated the night, and the bustling scene fell into chaos.
There seemed to be a splashing sound of falling water.
The ship, which was built with a huge amount of manpower and material resources, was instantly engulfed in flames and black smoke rose. What was even more horrifying was that a huge crack like falling into an abyss was suddenly opened on the ship's deck.
"There's an assassin! Someone come quickly!"
"Help, help! There's a monster coming in!"
"Mother!"
"The Emperor is injured!"
Miscellaneous cries could be heard, and the whole ship became a mess, Yin and Yang. The magicians and spellcasters were busy dealing with the sudden appearance of monsters and cursed spirits. The capable ones were fighting to the death, while the incompetent ones didn't know how to command other than running away. For a while, they couldn't find the person in charge.
Fujiwara Oriko grabbed the railing on the deck with one hand and barely stabilized her body.
The boat rolled on the turbulent waves, and those who couldn't find anything to borrow from fell directly into the boat, scaring the eyes of the people next to them.
"Hey——"
The swords collided and sparks burst out in the air.
Yukizawa Hanyu didn't know when he broke away from Fujiwara Oriko's arms and was fighting with someone who suddenly appeared. The originally weak Wenrun noble prince now had a sharp look on his face. He pierced the enemy's heart with his long sword and kicked the person down with his feet. Got the boat.
Humans, monsters, and cursed spirits are actually mixed together.
Yukizawa Hanyu turned around and grabbed Fujiwara Oriko's wrist tightly, pulling her to hide in a recessed place in the wall.
But you can't go to the center where the emperor is now. Most of the enemy forces are concentrated there, and the conjurers, onmyojis, and cursed monsters are fighting together, which is even more dangerous.
Fujiwara Oriko calmed down and grabbed a knife while evading. It was bloody and she didn't know who she had killed.
The two of them grabbed onto the raised spots on the wall to avoid falling under the violent ups and downs of the ship.
Yukizawa Hanyu suppressed the surging energy and blood, and his throat smelled fishy.
The place of refuge was only safe for a short time. A curse spirit soon discovered them, and its attacking tentacles poked holes one after another on the deck.
The two of them dodged awkwardly.
Yukizawa Hanyu holds a special magic tool that can be changed, which is more advantageous in dealing with curse spirits.
The level of the tentacled curse spirit was not high and was quickly removed.
The screams in his ears were less than before, and the situation seemed to be under control.
"Oko!"
A panicked and injured monster came out of nowhere and knocked Fujiwara Oriko to the edge. She was thrown off before she even had time to grab the board.
Yukizawa Hanyu jumped down, but the gap was so big that he couldn't even grab Fujiwara Oriko's clothes.
His long sword was inserted into the hull of the ship, his hand grasped the handle, and his whole body hung outside the hull.
The howling wind slapped his cheeks. Yukizawa Hanyu looked at the turbulent black sea below, but Oko Fujiwara could not be seen. Yukizawa Hanyu's eyes were filled with suppressed calmness. He put his right foot against the hull of the ship, pulled out his sword with all his strength, and let himself lose support and fall into the endless sea.
