Chapter 306 Triumph! The whole city of Edo was shocked! 【5600】
You marry my sister - Kanazawa Chusuke's words were like an electric current, starting from the ear piercing, and instantly spread throughout Qingto's body.
Affected by this "current", Qingdeng's body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and goosebumps appeared on his skin.
Qingdeng felt his neck was stiff and subconsciously thought that he had heard wrongly.
He turned his head and cast a shocked look at Kanazawa Chusuke - are you kidding? Qingto asked with his eyes.
Kanazawa Chusuke felt Aoto's gaze.
He smiled and responded to Qingdeng with firm eyes - yes, you heard it right, I just told you: You marry my sister.
"Uh, haha...Kanazawa-kun."
Qingden swallowed and moistened his inexplicably dry throat. He tightened his cheeks and forced out a faint smile. He tried his best to say in a half-joking tone:
"What's wrong? Why did you recruit me to be your brother-in-law so suddenly?"
"What other reasons could there be? I think you are a very good person! You are handsome, tall, talented, and have a bright future. What's more, you haven't married yet! You don't have a fiancée! You are a perfect match for Xiaoqin! And Xiaoqin is just the right person.
like you very much!"
Kanazawa Chusuke put his hands on his hips and spoke in a serious tone.
"Ji Jun, I don't know if you've noticed that Xiaoqin has a good impression of you."
"I'm ashamed to say that, as Xiaoqin's brother, I was only recently surprised to realize that my sister is attracted to you."
Kanazawa Chusuke stretched out his right index finger and wiped his upper lip horizontally, grinning slightly with a look of shame on his face.
"Lately, Xiaoqin always talks about you at home."
"Remember me?"
Qingdeng asked back.
"Oh, yes."
Kanazawa Chusuke nodded.
"What did Miss Kanazawa mention about me?"
"Ha...just those few words over and over again."
Kanazawa Chusuke shrugged, and the smile on his face turned into a bitter smile. At the same time, there was an extra layer of complex emotions in the eyes he cast towards Qingden.
"What's the matter of 'Mr. Tachibana comes to Chiba Sword Hall again today'?"
"What about 'Mr. Tachibana's swordsmanship is really amazing'."
"What about 'brother, you have to be like Mr. Tachibana'."
When he said this last sentence, the complex emotions contained in Kanazawa Chusuke's eyes were no longer vague, but condensed into a real existence.
"I've been there too, so I know what it means to always have the name of another person of the opposite sex on my lips."
"But at first, I was not sure whether my sister really liked you."
"Although it is not appropriate for me as an elder brother to say this...but my sister's fierce temperament does not seem like she would fall in love with a man like an ordinary woman."
"As of recently, I am finally convinced that Xiaoqin does have unusual feelings for you."
"Mr. Ju, I think you are more or less aware of it, right? Xiaoqin has obviously taken a liking to you during the few days she has been living in the military camp. She comes to greet you every once in a while."
"No, I just came to give you cotton-padded clothes in person."
"I have never enjoyed this kind of treatment! That stinky girl has never taken the initiative to give me cotton-padded clothes! I really envy you...ah, no...forget it, just pretend that I didn't say what I just said..."
"..." Qingden ignored Kanazawa Chusuke who suddenly felt sorry for himself, pursed his lips and said nothing.
After delivering a long speech, Kanazawa Chusuke stretched out his hand to open the lapel of his shirt as if he felt hot - in fact, he did feel very hot at that moment.
It was the first time for Kanazawa Chusuke to do such things as a matchmaker for his sister, and to personally ask a certain man if he wanted to be his brother-in-law.
The mood was much more tense than expected.
It was obviously the beginning of winter, and there were countless snowflakes flying above his head, but at this time, a thin layer of sweat broke out on Kanazawa Tadatsuki's forehead.
Kanazawa Chusuke opened his chest and continued to talk while using his hands as a fan:
"Ji Jun, I'm not bragging, Xiaoqin is indeed a good girl."
Kanazawa Chusuke raised the first finger.
"First of all - there is nothing to say about his appearance. He is twenty-nine years old, the same age as you. He is slim and graceful. His eyes are bright, his teeth are white, and his eyebrows are slender."
"Except for being too tall, there is nothing wrong with your appearance - and this only problem is not a problem for you, Mr. Ju, because you are taller than Xiaoqin, standing next to Xiaoqin
When we are together, we won’t be gossiped by those long-tongued people.”
Kanazawa Chusuke raised his second finger.
"Secondly, my family background is very good."
"My Kanazawa family is the flagship of the family with a salary of 1,000 shi. My family background is so pure that even the snowflakes above our heads would make us feel ashamed! Although we are not a famous family, we have never produced villains!"
When saying this, Kanazawa Chusuke puffed up his chest and his face was full of pride.
"at last--"
Kanazawa Tadatsuki raised his third finger.
"Xiaoqin is a kind-hearted Nadeshiko, not a shrew who is beautiful on the outside but corrupted on the inside."
"Not only is she superb in swordsmanship, she will be able to take care of the family well when she gets married, but she is also good at all the skills that a daughter of the martial arts family should know: embroidery, flower arrangement, tea ceremony, incense ceremony..."
"In general, Xiaoqin doesn't have any intolerable shortcomings, except for her temperament that is occasionally too impatient and impulsive."
Having said this, Kanazawa Chusuke slowly lowered the three raised fingers.
As if he was recalling something sad, the remaining air in his lungs turned into a long sigh that was frozen into white mist by the cold winter wind.
"Ah, I almost forgot... Xiaoqin has another shortcoming: she has too high standards."
"As early as three years ago, my father, mother and I introduced many outstanding men to Xiaoqin."
"But for the talents we introduce... Xiaoqin always doesn't like two things - she doesn't like this, and she doesn't like that either."
"So, I was really happy when I found out that Xiaoqin fell in love with you - this stinky girl has finally come to her senses."
"Ju Jun, if I miss you, I don't know how long it will take for Xiaoqin to meet an outstanding person who can make her have a strong affection for her again. That's why I can't wait to ask you now if you are interested in dating Xiaoqin.
marriage."
"So...Tachibana-kun, what do you think?"
The smile on Kanazawa Chusuke's face disappeared little by little at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his expression gradually became serious.
"What do you think of Xiaoqin?"
"do you like her?"
"Do you intend to marry her?"
"If you also like Xiaoqin, then when I return to Edo in the future, I can help you two get married right away! In 2 months at the latest, you and I can get married!"
Kanazawa Tadatsuki asked questions in succession like a machine gun, hitting Qingdeng's head until he was dizzy.
"..."
Qingdeng lowered his head in silence, staring straight at the snow in front of his toes.
The reason why Qingto lowered his head suddenly was of course not because there was anything on the ground that caught his eye. It was simply because lowering his head and not looking at Kanazawa Chusuke made him feel inexplicably relieved.
However, even if he lowered his head, Aomori could still feel Kanazawa Chusuke's gaze that contained strong will, and his scalp had a burning sensation that came and went.
Thinking back to what Kanazawa Chusuke said just now - he was absolutely right. No matter how you look at it, Kanazawa Qin is a very outstanding woman.
She must be good-looking, talented and talented, and have a good family background. She is fully worthy of the nickname given to her by the busybodies at Little Chiba Sword Hall: "Osanako".
Being able to be dubbed the "degraded version of Sanako Chiba"... In a sense, this is an incredible achievement.
I don’t know how many women are not even qualified to compare with Sanako.
Although in terms of appearance and figure, Kanazawa Qin can't compare with monsters like Kinoshita Mai, Sanako, Souji, and Tenzouin who score over 90 or 100 points, but their scores are at least 80 points.
Aoto's family had just been promoted to the banner of Sengoku a while ago, and they are the same family as the Kanazawa family, with the same family income. If Aoto can marry Kanazawa Qin, it will definitely be considered a good match.
but……
but……
As early as when Kanazawa Chusuke said to him, "Tachibana-kun, please marry my sister," Qingto already had the answer in his heart.
The answer came so quickly, without even a moment's hesitation. Even so, it was not out of spite or whim, it was just based on the truest feelings.
The content of this answer was so cruel... It made Qingto feel inexplicably guilty, and he hesitated to speak. He didn't know how to speak, and he didn't know how to explain to Kanazawa Chusuke...
"Um...Kanazawa-kun, I'm sorry, I..."
Qingdeng quietly hid this feeling of guilt deep in his heart and responded softly while carefully choosing his words.
He had just raised his head and only said "Sorry". Before he could even think of a euphemism, he was interrupted by Kanazawa Chusuke:
"Ah, okay, no need to say more."
Qingdeng was startled, then slowly raised his head - before him was a bitter expression dominated by strong regrets and regrets.
"I don't want to hear it anymore. If I keep listening, I might cry."
After making a joke that was not funny in a stiff tone, Kanazawa Chusuke closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
After sucking it all the way up to the point where the clothes on his upper body were fully stretched out, he let out an "ouch" and turned the sorrow in his heart into a voice.
"Ji Jun, you... don't like my sister?"
"No."
Qingdeng shook his head vigorously without thinking.
"My sister... Miss Kanazawa is a very good woman. I admire her very much. I have absolutely no disgust or dislike for her. It's just..."
In the middle of speaking, Qingdeng paused due to hesitation.
"only……"
Qingdeng's cheeks slowly relaxed, and the corners of his mouth also relaxed.
A calm and joyful smile floated on Qingden's cheeks like summer clouds.
"It's just - I already have a sweetheart."
There are already two girls living in Qingto's heart, leaving no room for Kanazawa Qin.
Hearing Aoshito's answers, Kanazawa Chusuke first let out a wry laugh of "ah haha", then raised his hand to scratch his head and said in a low voice:
"Tachibana-kun, the person you like...could it be Chiba Sanako from the Little Chiba Sword Hall?"
Although Kanazawa Chusuke's sentence was in the form of a question, his tone was that of an affirmative sentence, as if he was already sure of the answer.
Qingdeng raised his eyebrows with surprise on his face and asked with neither affirmation nor denial:
"Why do you ask?"
"Hahaha……"
Kanazawa Chusuke smiled bitterly a few more times.
"Because Xiaoqin often mentioned to me: You and Miss Chiba Sanako have a very good relationship. Every time you come to Xiaoqianba Sword Hall as a guest, you and Miss Chiba Sanako are basically inseparable."
"..." Qingdeng, who didn't know how to answer the question for a moment, burst into laughter.
"That's fine..."
Kanazawa Chusuke looked up to the sky and sighed, waving his hands.
"You can't force something like emotion."
"Since falling flowers are intentional and flowing water is ruthless, then there is no need to force it."
"Losing to Miss Chiba Sanako... losing to the person I most admire, Xiaoqin can be considered a proud loser."
"Xiaoqin, I admire Miss Chiba Sanako the most."
"Before I met you, Miss Chiba Sanako was always the elder one and Miss Chiba Sanako was the shorter one."
"As if Miss Chiba Sanako is the most perfect woman in the world... Well, from all aspects, Miss Chiba Sanako is indeed a perfect woman..."
Aoto, who silently listened to Kanazawa Chusuke's complaints, secretly added in his heart:
——To be precise... Sanako is one of my favorite people...
…
Although he couldn't bear it, Qingteng still firmly sent Kanazawa Qin a "good guy card".
Unsurprisingly, as soon as this "good guy card" was issued, embarrassment immediately surrounded Ayoto and Kanazawa Tadatsuki.
In less than half an hour, a pair of brothers and sisters were disturbed by an embarrassing atmosphere - it must be said that this can be regarded as a rare spectacle.
Kanazawa Chusuke, who was sorry and couldn't find any reason to stay here any longer, casually chatted a few words and then found a reason to leave.
But he stopped just after taking a few steps.
"Ah... By the way, I almost forgot to say..."
Kanazawa Chusuke turned his head and returned to a solemn expression.
"Ji Jun, let me give you a heads up."
"As for the Akabane Koichiro you killed... I, my grandson-kun, and Mizushima-kun all agree that you did the right thing! This kind of Xiaoxiao who dares to openly disobey military orders should be killed!"
"Recently, no matter where I go, I can hear the team members discussing the dispute between you and that Akabane Koichiro. According to my observations and statistics, the vast majority of people are on your side!"
Qingdeng blinked and smiled.
The Third Squadron and Riko Akabane Koichiro were cut in half by Aoto's sword for disobeying orders in front of the battle line - this incident has spread throughout the army at a flying speed in recent days!
Although superior officials have the right to enforce military laws against subordinate officials who violate military regulations, due to various reasons such as the special social atmosphere and the increasing prevalence of bureaucracy, the soldiers of the Huo Fu Thieves Reform have not seen this kind of "unity with force" for a long time.
Jing'er, a high-ranking general, was killed without saying a word.
For a time, Qingdeng became a "popular figure" in the military camp, and his popularity has not subsided until now.
Some people praise Qingdeng for his decisiveness and resoluteness in his actions. It is reasonable and reasonable to impose capital punishment on those who resist the revolution.
Some people undermined Qingnobu by acting too hastily and breaking the tree. The family behind Akabane Koichiro is quite powerful, and it would be bad luck for a child of such a family to act rashly.
Regardless of whether they were those who praised Qingdeng or those who disparaged Qingdeng, they were all shocked by Qingdeng's behavior that he dared not hesitate to take action against his well-established family.
Qingden shook his shoulders and said with a joking tone to Kanazawa Chusuke:
"Thank you for your support. I'm glad to hear you say that."
Kanazawa Tadashi smiled and waved his hand:
"Anyone in the army with a right mind will strongly support your actions. If you don't severely punish the arrogant people who resist military orders, the morale of the army will be lost."
"Whether it's based on emotion or logic, your execution of Akabane Koichiro is blameless."
"only……"
As Kanazawa Chusuke's conversation suddenly changed, a hint of worry crossed his eyebrows.
"After all, Akabane Koichiro is a disciple of Hatamoto with a family fortune of nearly a thousand stones."
"Even if he is wrong first, his people may not buy it."
"We cannot rule out the possibility that Akabane Koichiro's tribe will come to trouble you in the future."
"Although I am not a parent yet, I still understand what parents think."
"A close relative...especially an heir is killed. Most people in this world have no sense at all when faced with such a thing."
"So Tachibana-kun, please be more careful in the future and be careful of the Akabane family's revenge."
"Although you and I are not destined to be brothers, we are still comrades who fight side by side and have gone through life and death together!"
Kanazawa Chusuke smiled and patted his chest, and his muscles made a muffled sound of "bang bang bang".
"If you encounter any trouble in the future, you are welcome to come to me! If I can help, I will spare no effort!"
Qingto, who looked directly at Kanazawa Chusuke, couldn't help but let out a joyful laugh at this moment.
——The Akabane family...hehe...
Qingdeng, who was thinking so secretly, quietly sneered indifferently in his heart.
Of course, Qingdeng remained calm on the surface.
To be honest, Kanazawa Chusuke's guarantee probably has no chance of being fulfilled.
Qingden never cared about the existence of the Akabane family.
To put it bluntly - when Aoden drew his sword to kill Akabane Koichiro, he was already mentally prepared to suffer revenge from the Akabane family in the future, and he didn't care about it!
Aoto's past, present, and future will never have any regrets for the death of Akabane Koichiro.
Even if the Akabane family does come to him to "settle accounts" in the future, Qingden will have plenty of ways to deal with it.
As for the method... we will keep it a secret for the time being.
However, even so, when he heard Kanazawa Chusuke say this, Qingto still felt warm in his heart, and his joy was beyond words.
The corners of his mouth were slightly curved, creating an indifferent arc.
"Well, okay! I will!"
He responded to Kanazawa Chusuke's sincere heart with a loud and powerful voice.
…
…
After successfully uprooting the Xiangma clan and successfully restoring peace to the mountains, the expeditionary army rested and reorganized in Daohe Village for six days.
The villagers of Inawa Village, who were overjoyed to have finally escaped from the clutches of the Soma Clan, sent the expeditionary troops off with such enthusiasm that even Aomori and others felt a little embarrassed.
After marching for four days and three nights, the expeditionary army successfully returned to Edo, which they had not seen for a long time.
On the day of victory, the whole city of Edo was shaken!
The soldiers lined up in three columns escorted the captured bandits and marched in high spirits on the streets where the people lined the streets to welcome them.
The captured bandits were all stuffed into a huge bamboo cage, one person per cage, and carried like livestock to the roar of the people.
Along the way, people kept chanting at the top of their lungs, "Fire pays the thief to change his achievements this time."
How could he wipe out the bandits with the force of thunder...
Why level up to thousands of people...
Why will there be no more bandits in Kaifei in the next three years...
It has to be said that people’s imagination is really rich.
Except that the crusade army indeed attacked and destroyed the Xiangma people with thunderous force, most of the rest of the news were just false rumors.
But from another perspective, the widespread spread of these exaggerated rumors has played a certain positive role.
That is to say, more and more people were quickly attracted to watch the victorious army returning in triumph and the escorting of the prisoners!
Only people with funny brains will have a good impression of bandits.
Only those who are either stupid or bad will imagine that they are occupied by the handsome bandit leader as the wife of the village, and then they are loved and pampered by the bandit leader - basically, all bandit leaders are like Yokokura Kei
This type of rough guy is like Nosuke: his face is full of flesh, his eyes are fierce, and he is arrogant and domineering!
Therefore, the people of Edo were very happy to see the miserable prisoners locked tightly in bamboo cages!
