Chapter 1505 Don't pick up the burdens left behind
Jizi took the chopsticks and looked around with a frown: "Where is this? Is it your home?"
"Just think of it as my home."
"You have a lot of family..."
Although Yoshiko's words were light, Xia Shang also felt the meaning in his words, and immediately explained: "This place is just an property of mine in Kyoto."
"An estate?"
"I have never mentioned my identity to you in the past. Now that we meet in the capital, I should introduce myself again."
As Xia Shang spoke, his voice broke.
Jizi was still waiting to hear the next words. Seeing that Xia Shang didn't say anything, his expression became full of doubts.
"You eat your food first. You've been walking with me for a day, so don't say you're not hungry."
"Princess, it's really delicious." The maid next to me said.
"Just call me miss these days." Yoshiko thought for a while and moved her chopsticks.
The Japanese people eat relatively quietly, especially Yoshiko, who is a princess.
Xia Shang stared at the two girls at the table. After they had finished eating, he stood up and gave orders outside the door. A girl came in, cleared the table, and then left silently.
The girl only came in for a moment, but her appearance and figure made a deep impression on the two Japanese women.
"Miss, the woman just now is so beautiful..."
Jizi frowned and said nothing, looking at Xia Shang: "Can we talk now?"
"Before this, Yoshiko, who did you think I was?"
"You should be a high official in Dahua, maybe a general of some kind, otherwise you wouldn't have participated in the war in Xuzhou."
"Actually, I don't have much to do with being an official. For now, I think I should be called a businessman. I also prefer to make money, mainly running a winery in Dahua and building weapons... Here is just
It’s a side job, and the people you see are just my employees.”
"Employees? Why are they all girls?"
"Because this is a brothel."
"Brothel..." Jizi's eyes widened, obviously not expecting such an answer. After a moment, the look in his eyes looking at Xia Shang became strange.
"Don't think too much, I'm a hands-off shopkeeper and I rarely come to this kind of place."
"Princess, don't believe what he says, any man would say that."
summer
Shang scratched his head, thinking that if he continued to explain, he would get darker and darker. There was really nothing to say in such an environment.
"Anyway, you guys stay here for the time being. It's absolutely safe here and no one will disturb you."
Yoshiko seemed to be in a bad mood and asked: "Why should I stay here? I won't be in any danger."
"Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know? Can't you see that the chaos in the Affinity Hall today was caused by you?"
Yoshiko didn't answer, as if she was thinking.
Xia Shang saw it in his eyes and knew that this noble princess had no idea how dangerous the environment she was in was.
Judging from the intelligence obtained by Xia and Shang, although it is impossible to clearly understand the political situation of Japan, one thing is certain.
There are at least two forces within the Japanese country. One force is naturally Yoshiko's father, the traditional force controlled by Donghuang.
The other force is the force that originally organized the Japanese pirates to invade Xuzhou, and it exists in the dark.
The Donghuang and the Dahua court agreed on a marriage, which at least proved that the traditional power of the Japanese country did not want to continue the dispute with Dahua, at least until it had calmed down the internal affairs first.
Judging from today's white warriors, I am afraid that Japan's internal affairs will not be settled so quickly, and another force does not want to see the marriage between Dahua and Japan.
If you want to destroy this marriage and cause conflicts between the two countries, the simplest and most direct way is to let the Japanese princess encounter something unexpected.
Therefore, the first target of those Japanese warriors was Ji Zi.
This reasoning is very simple and requires no IQ at all.
Xia Shang said nothing and gave Ji Zi time.
Seeing Yoshiko's expression getting ugly little by little, she had obviously thought of all the possibilities.
"How is it? Do you understand now?"
"No wonder Lingsi seemed very nervous all the way here. He often left and came back. Could it be that he was focusing all his attention on the activities around him?"
"So you have to stay here honestly. No one will think that you will be with me and hide in the most popular brothel in the capital."
"Then...how long will I stay here? Lingsi must be very anxious. He will lead people everywhere to look for me."
"Don't be nervous. Now that you are in the dark, you can use this advantage to see clearly those who want to harm you.
What other plans do the people have? Your bodyguard is the leader of the Japanese army. Your father has entrusted him with such an important task. I believe he is not a confused person.
Don’t forget, in order to ensure your safety, there is also a substitute for you in your team. The current situation should be that your substitute has attracted everyone’s attention, and there should be only one news about your disappearance.
People know that he will never look for you in a big way. He will make good use of your substitute to lure the enemy out of the darkness.
Early tomorrow morning, I will find a way to send him a message and bring him the news that you are safe. As for how long you will stay here...at least until the situation becomes clear."
Jizi nodded. She had almost blind trust in Xia Shang. After all, this man had protected her in Xuzhou for three months and could protect her in wars, let alone in a prosperous city.
Xia Shang looked at the sky: "It's getting late, and I have to leave. You stay here, and I won't come to see you in a short time, because I'm afraid there will be clues. You must also be clear, don't
I have arranged for trustworthy people to come out of this room, and they will do their best to take care of you."
"Um."
Xia Shang glanced at Ji Zi, opened the door and left the room, then walked around Yunxiang Building and arrived at Yu Ji's room.
Yu Ji was already waiting in the room. When she saw Xia Shang, she bowed respectfully: "Your Excellency."
"I'm not an adult anymore."
Yu Ji smiled: "Okay, then we are still friends now, subordinate... I... will help you as a friend this time. But I didn't expect that your taste is becoming more and more elegant, and you are the most beautiful woman in Japan."
, all the Japanese princesses who were about to marry the prince were abducted, tsk tsk..."
"Yu Ji, please don't make fun of me. In short, I would like to ask you to take care of me personally during this period. Her identity is sensitive and will cause many problems once exposed. I will feel relieved if you take care of her personally. It is best not to let her come into contact with other people."
people."
"I see."
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
With that said, Xia Shang was ready to leave.
"Sir, do you really not care about the affairs in the courtyard? Since the imperial court ordered you to be removed from your first position, a lot of things have happened in the courtyard."
Xia Shang waved his hand: "It's rare to drop this burden, how can there be any reason to pick it up again? You can do whatever you want."
