Chapter 555 Hijikata: "Tachibana, watch carefully, this is how the harem is opened(1/3)
of!"
They stood at the front row of the farewell procession, facing the police officers who were maintaining order.
Probably to avoid being noticed, their iconic miko costumes were changed into ordinary clothes.
Shazhong folded her hands in front of her body, looking as quiet and graceful as ever.
Yae crossed his arms and curled his lips.
Looking at these two sisters who have had a long-term friendship with him and who have also been partners with each other for a long time, Qingden couldn't help but smile on his cheeks.
Just the day before yesterday, he made a special trip to Yuegong Shrine to say goodbye to His Highness Tianzhangyuan, Uncle Tiancang Xiao and the Erzhong sisters.
"Miss Sasaki, seniors, please take care of yourself."
"Humph, why are you being so solemn? It's just a trip to Kyoto, and it's not like I'll never come back."
"Mr. Tachibana, although Yae said so, she actually felt sad for a long time after learning that you were going to Luo."
"Ooohhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"In the New Royal Court episode, you are the person who has the best relationship with her besides me, so please understand her reluctance."
"Here, shut up!"
"By the way, Mr. Tachibana, I feel very sorry for you too."
"You're lying! Your expression and tone don't look like you're giving up!"
"After all, I'm not like some idiot who writes all my happiness, anger, sorrow and fear on my face."
"Ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
The two sisters couldn't bear to leave Qingdeng - and so did Qingdeng.
On the one hand, it is because of our deep friendship with each other.
Even putting aside the "colleague relationship", they are still very good friends who can talk to each other very well.
On the other hand, they are also very coveted for their excellent ninja skills.
In terms of combat effectiveness, the two sisters are not that outstanding.
But when it comes to infiltration and intelligence gathering, no one in the new Yu Ting Fan can match it.
The Shinsengumi is short of everything now, it's short of both funds and talent.
For this reason, Qingdeng once considered "poaching two sisters".
However, as soon as this idea popped up in his mind, he consciously killed it.
The Erzhong sisters are loyal to Tianzhang Academy, and they are also Tianzhang Academy's most trusted capable officers.
It is impossible for them to abandon Tianzhang Court, and it is impossible for Tianzhang Court to let him go.
At the same time that Qingto discovered Sae and Yae, he noticed that there was a graceful woman standing behind the two sisters.
She was wearing a cyan kimono, with a light blue sash wrapped around her waist, supporting her astonishingly bulky southern hemisphere. The overall dressing style revealed an elegant style.
Standing next to the two sisters, she also has a fiery figure that is not inferior to that of Sanako... The identity of this woman is already obvious.
Qingdeng raised his eyebrows in surprise, then couldn't help but smile.
To be able to see Tianzhangin again on the eve of leaving Edo... This really surprised and delighted him.
Tianzhangyuan wears a low-brimmed bamboo hat that can completely cover his face.
From an outsider's perspective, his face cannot be seen clearly.
However, even so, her presence still attracted a lot of attention.
There's no way around it, that pair of beings that can be worn on the belt are really eye-catching.
Those people standing around Tianzhangyuan probably never imagined that the most noble woman of the shogunate was right in front of them.
When a man and an ox arrived within 10 steps of Tianzhang Courtyard, the latter raised his head slightly - and for a moment, Qingdeng felt the gentle look in his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Tianzhangyuan took out a Chinese fan from his belt, lifted it to his chest, and then slowly opened it.
I saw four big Chinese characters written on the fan - Wu Yun Chang Long.
Looking at these four words, Qingdeng laughed dumbly, and then nodded vigorously.
Well, Your Highness Tianzhangyuan, please take care of yourself - he replied with his eyes.
…
It's funny to say that almost at the same time, the front army and the rear army experienced a strange situation that was very similar, but slightly different.
"Mr. Shannan!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
"Mr. Shannan! Please stay safe!"
Dozens of girls rushed to chase Shannan Keisuke. Each of them had sad faces, and many of them were sobbing with tears in their eyes.
As one of the three most handsome faces in the Imperial Guard Hall (the other two being Souji and Hijikata Toshizo), Shannan Keisuke has always been very popular.
His gentle temperament and gentle and friendly smile have fascinated thousands of girls.
There have always been a large number of nymphomaniacs who admire Hijikata Tobizo and people who are obsessed with Souji stationed near the Imperial Guard Hall.
After Shannan Keisuke joined the trial guard hall, there were a lot more nymphomaniac girls surrounding him.
How many girls have confessed to Shannan Keisuke? Even he himself has probably lost count.
Shannan Keisuke has no intention of getting married for the time being, so whenever a girl proposes to him, he politely refuses.
Kondo Isamu, who led the rear army with Shannan Keisuke, joked.
"Shannan-kun, won't you respond?"
Although Shannan Keisuke felt helpless, his kind-hearted personality could not bear to hurt the hearts of these girls who came specially to see him off, so he could only wave frequently.
On the other hand, in the former army, a scene of "flowers and flowers" was also staged.
However, its form and content are really different...
…
"Hey! Hijikata Toshizo! What's going on with these women?!"
"Suisan...wuwuwu...I...I trust you so much, but you actually...actually..."
"Hijikata-kun! Didn't you say that I am your only love?!"
"You all get out of the way! Don't block my way! I am Mr. Hijikata's lover!"
"Stop talking nonsense! I am Mr. Hijikata's lover!"
…
Nearly twenty girls were quarreling on the street, and each of them was blushing and neck-thick.
Very few people's quarrels were so intense that they almost started to fight directly.
From the graceful lady, to the heroic daughter of the martial arts family, to the strong and honest village girl... you can find girls of all types and ages here.
Women quarreled...and nearly twenty girls quarreled in public. Such a scene is rare even in modern times, let alone the Edo period with strict etiquette.
The person who created this rare situation sighed lightly, then turned around, looked at the girls, and shouted:
"Stop making noise!"
In an instant, the girls who were arguing fiercely a second ago immediately became quiet, and all turned to look at Hijikata Toshizo.
"I know you are full of questions and anger right now."
"But, I don't have time to explain to you now."
"When I am free in the future and come back from Kyoto, I will give you a thorough explanation."
"So, please keep your peace until I, Hijikata Suisan, hold your catkins again, okay?"
After saying that, the corners of Hijikata Toshizo's mouth extended to both sides, and a romantic smile caught the eyes of the girls.
Everyone who witnessed this scene and heard these words was dumbfounded.
How could such a simple sentence settle the dispute? Didn't you see how fiercely these women were quarreling just now?
However... reality is always magical.
In the face of "reality", even the most imaginative fantasy novels will fail.
Hijikata Toshizo seemed to have cast some kind of magic.
When he finished speaking, those girls who had been arguing so fiercely just now, as if they wanted to tear each other alive, now one by one, have changed from "ferocious tigers" to "obedient cats."
Not only did they no longer attack each other, quite a few of them even had red cheeks and shy expressions.
Hachiro Kiyokawa, who didn't know the details of Hijikata Toshizo, almost had his eyes rolling out of his sockets.
"Um...Hijikata-kun, won't you explain a few more words?"
To be continued...
