[Main Naruto] Little sweet girl is blackened

In the warm room, the fresh fragrance of plum blossoms flows quietly.

"... Since then, there has been a legend that if people who meet on the day of the first snow hold each other's hands, they can grow old and be together for the rest of their lives. This is the blessing of the first snow princess." The young Izuna sat on the tatami. On the side, a clear voice tells the beautiful legend.

"Wow, is this true, Brother Izuna? Then every Hatsuyuki from now on will be with Brother Madara, Brother Izuna and my uncle, so Hatsuyuki will definitely hear my wishes and give me blessings. Alright?"

Little Xue Nai was lying on the bed with an abnormal blush on her cheeks, but she was in good spirits.She looked at Quan Nai with her big eyes open and asked with longing.

"Yes, Nai-chan will definitely be happier than anyone else." Izuna tapped the tip of her nose and gave a positive answer.

The taller boy Madara sat on the window sill, swinging his right leg and playing with a bright red plum, looking very relaxed.After hearing the conversation between Quan Na and Xue Na, his eyes were filled with smiles.

"Brother Madara is not allowed to go see Hatsuyuki with girls other than Yukina."

The stubborn look in the little girl's eyes made Madara laugh. He nodded and solemnly agreed: "Okay, I'll just watch the first snow with Yukina."

"There are also brother and uncle Izuna~"

"Hey Yi~Hey Yi~I promise you~"

The full amount of love almost overflowed from the words, spreading sweetly from the mouth to the heart.

-------------------------------------

Outside the Suzaku Hall, tiny snowflakes fell from the sky.Thousands of years, eternal.

"Ah!" A gust of cold wind blew, and Xuena couldn't help sneezing, waking up from memories.

The maid stepped forward cautiously: "Madam, you have been standing here for a while. The winter wind is cold, why don't you go back to the main hall and have a cup of hot tea?"

After coming out of Suzaku Hall, Mrs. Schnee's mood became a little light.Without saying a word, he just leaned against the bone-cold railing and stared at the plum tree not far away in a daze.

However, her body was not considered strong. If she contracted the cold due to this, the daimyo would be so distressed that he would not be able to spare those who served him.The maid was anxious in her eyes, but she couldn't dare to disturb him.At this moment, seeing Xuena start to sneeze, he quickly stepped forward to speak.

"...Well, let's go back." Xuena lowered her head and raised her face the moment she stepped into the hall. She was still the gentle and kind lady.

"Why have you been here for so long? Look at you, your hands are freezing cold." Takeda Takuma pinched her fingertips and frowned at the extremely cold temperature.

Xuena naturally pulled out her hand: "I'm greedy for looking at the snow scene, which makes Master Takuma worried. I came in from the outside with a cold body and sat here recklessly. Please don't get close, sir."

Takeda laughed and handed her a cup of hot tea: "Ma'am, I'm sorry. I'm strong and will be fine." He was very satisfied with her caring in such a meticulous way.

"Your Excellency, you are laughing at me. I have been weak since I was a child, and I put myself down to others. That's why..."

"It doesn't matter, I know you have good intentions." Takeda waved his hand and continued to care: "How do you feel? If you are tired, it doesn't hurt to go back and rest first."

Xue Nai shook his head: "Takuma-sama has put a lot of thought into my birthday party, and I want to save it until the end."

"Okay, if you can't hold on any longer, you must tell me."

"Yes, my lord."

"Madam, you haven't met these noble officials from the Fire Country. Let me introduce them to you. The first one is..."

The daimyo couple here come and go with care and consideration for each other. Anyone with eyes can see the warm and harmonious atmosphere.The nobles below were drinking and enjoying themselves, seemingly wholeheartedly engaged, but in fact everyone was paying some attention to them.

After seeing this scene, the initial contempt in my heart for the remarried Princess of the Kingdom of Water completely dissipated.No matter where the hero comes from, no matter what Mrs. Yukina's background is, she can marry into the Takeda family and hold the daimyo's heart tightly. This is her ability.

No matter what era, pillow style is something that needs attention.I don't need anyone to help me by saying nice things, but I can't have anyone who is holding me back by backstabbing.The shrewd nobles immediately decided to adjust their attitude. They must not let the unconscious and contemptuous attitude offend the daimyo's beloved wife and hinder their bright future.

The grand birthday banquet came to an end in the evening, and the guests came and returned enjoying themselves.Whether it’s the venue environment or the banquet, singing and dancing, it’s hard to fault.Seeing this, Takeda Rin's heart dropped steadily back to his stomach.The young men who were staring at him from behind could not help but sigh.

It would be nice if the banquet failed. My father would never hand over the Fire Country to someone who couldn't even arrange a simple banquet.It's a pity... It's not like they haven't thought about adding some trouble to this good brother, but they can't figure out for the time being how much Takeda Takuma's regard for Yukina is true and false.

If you kick the iron plate...haha, it will be a lot of fun.

Due to this consideration, they could not do anything except hope that Takeda Rin would make mistakes.

Just when some of them were happy and some were sad, Xue Nai fell ill.

She used the medicine of tiger and wolf to forcibly stimulate her body's vitality and got better in a short period of time. Although she looked like a normal person, she was actually weaker than in the previous years.In the middle of the banquet, I ran out to enjoy the cold wind for a while. Unconsciously, I started to feel hot at night.By the time it was almost dawn, people were already burning and confused.

After Takeda Rin heard the news, he felt a thrill in his heart, and an ominous premonition arose spontaneously.

Sure enough, Takeda Takuma was furious after hearing the doctor's report.Every one of the people who served Xue Nai personally were punished.If she hadn't forced herself to plead for mercy and needed someone familiar with her habits to take care of her during her illness, death would have been inevitable.

These waiters who came with her from the Kingdom of Water were all ordered by Omiemon to "assist" her.In name, Xuena and them are masters and servants, but in reality, everything they say and do is monitored and controlled by these people, and they cannot act independently.

Reasonably, Xuena told her that they were just poor people who had left their homes and had no choice but to feel sympathy for them emotionally.This time, I used Takeda Takuma's hand to shock them, just to make them see two facts clearly.

First, this is the Land of Fire, and without Omiemon to support them, Yukina, as the daimyo's wife, is their only support.Second, in the eyes of outsiders, they are all Xuena's people.Apart from her, there will be no one to protect them and speak for them.Likewise, wanting to take their lives was all a matter of Xuena's thoughts, and no one would question this.

Anyone who can become a spy is not stupid.After dozens of battles, his attitude when meeting him again was as respectful as the original waiter at Daming Mansion.She was dominated by Xuena in her words and deeds, and she didn't dare to go overboard in the slightest.

Xuena drank the soup in a good mood. As expected, she preferred others to respect and fear her from the bottom of their hearts, rather than using the Sharingan to control others.

Having said that, it was not just the waiters who were unlucky about Yukina's illness, but also Takeda Rin, the eldest son who organized the banquet.Takeda Takuma didn't expect him at first, but who knew he had several troubled younger brothers and sisters.

When he came to express his concern for his mother, the second son's half-sister Takeda Haruka couldn't hide his sorrow and asked: "It was very warm in the hall yesterday. Why did my mother still fall ill? Are the people around me not doing their best?"

"It's hard for you to care about her so much," his daughter's words made Takeda Takuma loosen his frown slightly, "Your mother was greedy for looking at the snow scene, and the people around her knew that she was weak but did not say anything to persuade her, so she got cold and fell ill. .”

"Ah..." Takeda Haruka asked hesitantly, "Where did mother see the snow scene? I remember that when we held winter banquets in the past, there were charcoal pots under the eaves for heating."

Takeda Rin's heart "thumped" and he subconsciously looked at his father.

Even if he wanted to save some money, he would not do something as obvious and objectionable as removing the charcoal basin outside the palace.However, he reduced the use of charcoal pots in places such as the eaves and the apse, which were rarely or even never visited by people in winter.

It doesn’t look like much, but the actual savings are quite amazing.After all, it is outdoors, and charcoal burns quickly. The amount used is much higher than indoors, but the effect is so slight that it is difficult to see with the naked eye.

In previous years, the house officer had arranged everything, but no one set foot there at all.In the middle of winter, who wouldn’t want to go outside to blow the cold wind?In the warm hall, doesn’t it smell great with music, music, music, wine and delicacies?

However, it was such a coincidence that he removed the charcoal pot while Mrs. Schnee went outside to enjoy the snow.

Not only did he enjoy the snow, but he also fell ill from the cold due to lack of charcoal fire. No one else was so unlucky.

"Rin, do you have anything to say?"

"..." Takeda Rin had nothing to say, and he bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "It was my son who acted poorly and made his mother sick."

"...Hmph, useless stuff!" Takeda Takuma threw up his sleeves and left.

"Brother, you did something wrong. My father was just angry for a moment. Don't worry, I will help you explain to him when his anger subsides."

"Yes, yes, brother, you have always been considerate, and I didn't expect that you would go wrong on such a trivial matter. Could it be that you have a problem with your mother?"

"Oh, is it true, brother? My mother has always been caring and loving to our brothers. You can't explain this~"

"I don't have to worry about you." Takeda Rin didn't bother to pay attention to these brothers who were overtly concerned and secretly gloating, and strode away closely behind Takeda Takuma.

As for Xuena, although she took the medicine prescribed by the doctor, her fever kept getting better.It lasted for more than ten hours, and it was only when Takeda Takuma came to see her the next night that he completely retreated.

"...That's what happened. It was Rin who didn't act well, and that's what got you in trouble. Tell me, how do you want to punish him? I'll listen to you."

Xue Nai leaned on the couch, hugging the dark quilt in her arms, and her face became more and more white and weak.

"The eldest son didn't mean to target me. He did this for you and the Country of Fire. On the contrary, I should have refused you to hold a birthday banquet for me in the first place. It was a waste of money."

"What's your fault? That boy Rin, you underestimated the financial resources of the Fire Nation."

Although Takeda Rin didn't say why he did what he did, Takeda Takuma knew it well.At this moment, he was saying that it was all the eldest son's fault and that he would be punished severely, but he felt somewhat comforted in his heart.

The eldest son acts indecisively, but he is dedicated to serving the country and has no selfish motives.For this reason alone, he is much better than other sons.

Yukina knows a lot about Takeda Takuma's thoughts, and there are always five or six.Hearing this, he just smiled: "This incident is just an accident, let it pass, Lord Takuma."

"How can this be done? If you let Lin go like this, how can you lose face?"

It’s neither light nor heavy, it’s really embarrassing~

Xue Nai thought for a moment and spoke again: "Then, let the eldest young master do something for me.
