"Who are you? How dare you block the young master's whip?" Japanese, with a domineering tone.

Xin Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the owner of the voice. Judging from his dress, he must be a general or a retainer of a daimyo. He was sitting on a horse, with an arrogant and evil face, and regarded being whipped by the so-called young master as the highest honor. For a mortal, To avoid it is to be disrespectful.

The young master in front of him, sitting on a tall horse, holding a long golden whip, wearing dark blue straight clothes, with squinting eyes and a crooked mouth, has an extremely arrogant temperament, but there is a convex orchid embroidered on the clothes in an artful manner, which makes people feel strange and yin and yang. Can't help but laugh.

"Why are Lord Zuo Matou so cruel?" The man known as the Young Master changed his face when he saw Xin Yue. He originally wanted to whip the domineering person who stood in the way, but now he pretended to be gentle to Xin Yue. Smiling, "Be careful of offending the beautiful Miss Tang Dynasty."

The chameleon-like look was very joyful. Xin Yue curled her lips and chuckled. Suddenly, she thought of something. She tried her best to smile brightly. The setting sun was like fire, the flowing light was like gold, and the beauty was like jade. She looked at the young lady like a jade. The Lord's eyes were straightened.

"Miss, you have come a long way to accompany me to my mansion to relieve the pain of the long journey, relax your mind and body, and fulfill my friendship as a landlord. How about that?"

The Japanese are famous for their politeness. Japanese men are often criticized for their gentlemanly demeanor. They are extremely polite and courteous in front of women they have never met. I think it has always been like this throughout the ages.

With the respect of the young master, I call myself "I", and as expected... I am very well-educated.

"Lord Zuo Matou, hurry up and take the young lady back to your mansion."

Xin Yue smiled, come on. The young master in front of him is rampant and arrogant, and behind him Chu Zhiling is also a rebellious master who cannot tolerate offense. How can the two fierce horses not fight?

Chu Zhiling was followed by a large number of pirates, already holding the blade with his hands, and the young master seemed to have some influence in his family, so he should be ready to respond when he made a move.

Xin Yue was supposed to fall into a chaotic battle situation for him to escape, but he didn't expect——

"Mr. Yoshida, how is my father?"

Chu Zhiling's Japanese is very fluent.

The young master saw that Chu Zhiling had an extraordinary demeanor and acted like an acquaintance, as if he had seen him somewhere but could not figure out where he was, so he asked: "Who are you?"

"I am a businessman from Ming Dynasty, Chu Zhiling."

After saying this, Yoshida Yoshiyasu remembered it, quickly dismounted, stepped forward and said: "It turns out to be Captain Chu, disrespectful."

The tense atmosphere just now suddenly subsided and was replaced by the gentle and harmonious atmosphere of acquaintances meeting each other. Xin Yue curled his lips depressedly.

"Mr. Yoshida, this young lady is mine." Chu Zhiling's seemingly gentle brows were filled with cold light, and he put his hand on Xin Yue's waist, declaring ownership without any scruples.

Yoshida Yoshiyasu seemed to be frightened by his gaze. He bent his waist unconsciously and said awkwardly: "It's really rude."

Then he said: "How about Captain Chu and his wife going to stay together for a while?"

Chu Zhiling waved his hand expressionlessly: "I have something to do and I can't stay here. I would like to ask Mr. Yoshida to say hello to your father."

Then he took Xin Yue's hand and turned around.

Yoshida Yoshiyasu wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered: "I almost got into trouble."

The retainer asked secretly: "Young Master, who is that person?"

"Chu Zhiling, Master Zuo Matou didn't listen to him?" Yoshida Yoshiyasu stepped on the saddle and got on the horse.

Seeing Zuomatou's doubtful expression, Yoshida Yoshida said: "Master Zuomatou has lived in Kyoto for a long time, so he only pays attention to the young ladies there?" Finally, he added, "It's no wonder that Mr. Zuomatou doesn't know. You are younger than me and have lived in Kyoto all year round, so you certainly don’t know about China’s Pirate King. Chu Zhiling has some contacts with the Tokugawa Shogun family, and even my father has to be somewhat polite to him."

————

The house that Chu Zhiling stayed in was not the Gongqing's house in Hirado, but a grand old-fashioned Japanese house. It looked a bit old, with blue curtains. The main room was very large, with a hearth in the middle and paving around it for the family's daily living.

There are mats on which to sit, bright iron hooks are hung on the hearth, and there is a large beam above the head of the hall. The beam is exquisitely carved with patterns of carps playing in the waves. From this small detail alone, we can see that this is a very exquisite ceremony.

Each home is spacious and exquisite in every aspect.

There is no smoke ejection device on the floor stove, and the fire smoke curls up throughout the house, and then slowly penetrates from the small cracks in the bamboo mats on the ceiling to the outside of the tile roof. It adds a touch of homely atmosphere to the deep simplicity.

Chu Yan smiled and shouted: "Uncle Tian, ​​we are here."

There was the sound of clothes scraping against the tatami in the bedroom, followed by a slight sound from the paper door, and a man about fifty years old came out of it, wearing a cool yellow cardigan, a navy blue waist, and very homely shoes on his feet.

, wrinkles form at the corners of the eyes when smiling.

"Zhiling, Xiaoyan, you are here." He spoke fluent Chinese. Yanyan's originally smiling face faltered slightly when he saw Xin Yue behind Chu Zhiling, and then he deepened his smile to cover up his unstable expression just now.

.

"Anike..." As the door of the paper hut with crimson sunset reflected on the right side opened, a delicate call came out. The owner of the voice was a girl about fifteen years old, with untied hair.

She had a middle parting that was common in the Heian period, her long hair was draped behind her back, and she was wearing a pink blouse. The cuffs faintly revealed the luster of autumn fragrance and red plum color, and her dark eyes were filled with intense emotion when she looked at Chu Zhiling.

Her smile is as bright as a spring cherry blossom.

Anike Yi, translated as "brother", compared to the honorific title given to someone who is slightly older than him, he has a slightly sweeter voice and a tossing intonation, which is kind and charming.

Xin Yue glanced at Chu Zhiling and watched the development of the situation silently without making a sound.

Chu Zhiling smiled slightly: "Meiko has grown so tall." The conversation was in Japanese, and his words were gentle and approachable as an elder.

"Anikyi, Sibarakudisi Neiyi." I don't know if the syllable at the end is prolonged intentionally or unintentionally. The "brother, long time no see" that was meant to be a greeting has a bit of coquettishness to it.

Chu Zhiling coughed, took Xin Yue to him, and introduced: "This is my wife."

How could Xin Yue feel that Chu Zhiling was using her as a shield? Sure enough, after saying this, the girl with a dwarf smile had a hint of contempt for her in her eyes.

When Xin Yue spoke Japanese, his voice was very ethereal, like the pure moonlight: "I was a prisoner, snatched away by him. I am already married to someone else, and I am not his wife at all."

After saying that, he glanced at Chu Zhiling sideways and slightly provocatively, with a faint smile on his lips that was not easily noticed.

The setting sun shone a thin pink color and fell on Xin Yue's fair and pure face. The slightly raised corners of her pink lips made Chu Zhiling slightly startled. He showed an evil smile, stretched out his hand to pull her closer to him, and kissed her on her petite lips.

He whispered in his ear: "You don't want me to sit here and confirm the fact that we are husband and wife. I have always been unruly, and there are some things I can do in front of my elders."

A soft-spoken threat.

Xin Yue frowned slightly and replied lukewarmly: "The shameless person is indeed the winner."
