Yaeji smiled helplessly. He grew up with Sakura and understood her thoughts very well.
Sakura doesn't talk much and is silent sometimes. She only talks more when the three siblings are alone together.
Yae Sakura is the kind of child who wants to do everything herself and work hard. The elegant and quiet Yae Sakura has a little bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. She will try her best to do everything best, and she will add to her little temper.
Only by using some stubborn paint can we draw Yae Sakura, a beautiful and intelligent person.
Sakura's white lips touched Yae Sakura's forehead. Yae Ji took two steps back and found that the person shrouded in moonlight was just like Rin before. A blush appeared on her pretty face, but more of it was a sense of satisfaction.
"Okay, let's go back to sleep."
"Yes." Sakura lowered her head slightly, "Good night, brother."
"Same for Sakura."
...
City Lord's Mansion, in the main courtyard.
A tall, middle-aged man with a sword and a golden horse was sitting on a stone chair. If other people hadn't known that this was the palace of the Lord of Longcheng City, based on his temperament, everyone would have thought that he was in a bandit's den.
The middle-aged man dismissed the guards and servants, leaving only Guan Yuelong alone.
"If the thing is lost, it will be lost. Anyway, a few of them are lost."
"How many have been lost?!" Guan Yuelong's eyes were full of astonishment, "But didn't they say they were important strategic materials? Every one of them..."
The middle-aged man waved his hand, "Yes, each one is important, but compared to that thing, these crystals with unknown meanings are substitutes to confuse people, and more to lure away monsters on the way."
"But the Westerners..."
"Hey!" The middle-aged man interrupted Kanyue Takashi again, "Those are too far away from us. The partner of the Westerners is Shinano Country. We are a small town, so we should not get involved too much. Compared with these things, why?
Father is more interested in the shrine maidens of Yae Shrine, tell me everything you know."
"Yes." Guan Yuelong had no choice but to suppress his curiosity and told the whole story.
"The shrine maidens who serve the Fox God are really powerful." The man sighed, "I can collect almost all the information about their identities by tomorrow, and you don't have to worry about finding a doctor."
"Yes." Guan Yuelong bowed his head honestly.
The middle-aged man kept staring at his son, with a smile on his rough face, "Looking at you, you seem to be quite interested in me?"
Guan Yuelong's eyes wandered and he said nothing.
"Hahaha~ If you can bring the shrine maiden from Yae Shrine to our Long City, that would be a great thing!"
Guan Yuelong's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Father, you...you don't object?"
"What are you objecting to?" The man waved his hand, "If you can really get the shrine maiden, the engagement you made before will naturally be invalidated. Compared with those eldest ladies in purdah, with the help of a shrine maiden, I believe you can explore a higher position.
What's more...that miko lady still has a period of explosive potential. We can take advantage of Miss Rin's condition..."
Guan Yuelong frowned and replied truthfully: "Miss Lin's condition looks very serious. The doctors in Longcheng..."
"Okay." The middle-aged man stood up, "Treat her as much as possible if possible. Didn't you say her hamstring is broken? If nothing else works, let's start here."
"Remember, even if you can't get married, don't become enemies. Being ambitious is a good thing. If you can become friends with this generation of miko with great potential, you will be very satisfied as a father."
Guan Yuelong lowered his head and did not respond, not knowing what he was thinking in his mind.
...
Early the next morning, Yaeji woke up and could already hear the sound of swords waving in the courtyard. Yaeji, who refused to wear the maid's clothes, packed himself up and pushed the door open.
Sure enough, I saw Yae Sakura in the courtyard, wielding a small training wooden sword and wielding the first four steps of the Falling Sakura Slash.
Sakura now looks more like he is weakening in all directions. Sometimes Yae Ji considers whether he should teach Sakura [Shunpo]?
After much deliberation, Yaeji decided to wait for a while until Sakura could become proficient in the use of teleportation, and then teach him the technique of sustaining power.
"Eight elements!"
Guan Yuelong walked in from outside the courtyard, and the servants and maids saluted one after another.
"How was it? Did you sleep well last night?"
"It's pretty good." Yaeji smiled.
"That's fine." Guan Yuelong also smiled, first glanced at Yae Ji's pretty face, then set his sights on Sakura, and sighed: "Miss Sakura is really hard-working, and given time, it will be easy to become the shrine maiden of Yae Village.
Take it easy, right?"
When he said this, Guan Yuelong observed Yaeji with the corner of his eye, trying to see his expression.
In Kanyue Takashi's imagination, if Miss Sakura becomes a shrine maiden, then Yae Ji...
"Yes." Yaeji said with a healing smile on his face, "Sakura will definitely become an outstanding miko."
Guan Yuelong's heart was moved, but his face remained calm as he said, "I happen to be free today, so let's go have breakfast together? At this time, the doctor is already on his way."
"good."
Porridge, prunes, boiled beans, sauce, two dishes and one soup...
Compared to the breakfast at Yae Shrine, the food at Longcheng Castle Palace can be described as gorgeous.
Taking advantage of this time, the doctor Guan Yuelong had found also came to the city lord's mansion.
After dinner, Rin's room.
Yaeji held Sakura's little hand tightly and stood quietly next to the bed.
"I often have low-grade fever, fatigue, and cough...but it's not tuberculosis. It's really strange."
When Guan Yuelong on the side heard about tuberculosis, his expression changed and then returned to normal.
Asked: "If you can't tell, please prescribe some medicine for Miss Lin to take care of your body first."
The old doctor nodded and said: "This can only be the case for now, but young city lord, don't worry. I will look through the ancient books when I go back. Maybe there are records in them."
Seeing the doctor writing a prescription, Yaeji's heart sank, and words like "Hengkai" and "Daisuke" kept spinning in his mind.
"Doctor, you are helping to look at Lin's hamstring."
"Hamstring?" The doctor was confused, but he still followed Yaeji's words. Since someone has the energy to invite him to the city lord's palace, he is the one person he must not offend.
Rin turned over and rolled off the thin cloth wrapped in the corner. The white and curled skin in the past had long since disappeared, forming gray-brown bloody scabs.
Physicians get started...
"A broken hamstring? The best time to repair it has passed. If you want to stand up in the future..." the doctor did not say anything further.
Yaeji's face became even more ugly, and even Guan Yuelong frowned, either because he was worried about Miss Rin's illness or because he was dissatisfied with the doctor.
"Young City Lord." The doctor stood up and whispered in Guan Yuelong's ear:
"Why don't you go to those Westerners for this type of disease?"
"Can they cure Miss Rin's disease?"
"I can't guarantee this, but I heard that they are experimenting with the special energy they found... It's not like you haven't seen their warrior named Valkyrie before."
