All the dignitaries present here fell into contemplation.

"So, my suggestion is to temporarily tighten the actions of the patriots of the various domains outside the country, especially the assassination. The assassination incident now will only make us look like thugs in front of the shogunate, not patriots for the future of the country."

"Return to the vassal, make the vassal the king of diligence, manage their respective parties, and then contact the lord of the feudal lord, enter the capital with the lord of the feudal lord, and let the lord of the feudal lord convey his opinions to the shogunate. Under the dual pressure of foreigners and division, I believe that the general who conquered the barbarians Ie Shigeru Tokugawa, will not fail to seriously consider everyone's opinions."

Everyone, except Zuo Cun and Wu Shi Banping Tai, began to think about the feasibility of what Zuo Cun just said.

Takeshi Banping laughed, the answer is naturally that he and Zuo Village had discussed it in advance, and Sakamoto Ryoma also participated.

"Then, what about the time?" The Mito clan stalwart asked again, "The time must not be too late. The shogunate has ruled Japan for so long, and the efficiency will definitely be much higher than ours."

"About this, don't worry too much." Takeshi Banping Tai said, "The emperor's sister is married to the shogun, this grand celebration will definitely consume a lot of energy on both sides, and the current shogunate is suffering from factional struggle. Under the constraints, the efficiency will not be as fast as we think.”

"So, next year, in the spring of next year, when the lord of the feudal lord enters the capital, that's all it takes."

After discussing again for a while, everyone finally established a plan.

Go back for the time being, restrain the rumors, and set up the Qin Wang Party of each vassal. Then, in the spring of 1861, the lord of the vassal entered the capital.

After the discussion, Zuo Cun walked out of the room, sighed, and walked to the hotel side by side with Wu Shi Banping Tai.

There are still many details to be finalized for the establishment of the Qinwang Party, and who should be contacted to establish the Qinwang Party is also a big problem.

At the same time, another figure entered the next general.

The figure was not tall, but with a knife on his waist, the people around him avoided it.

===Chapter 340 IX Farewell to Ms. Okita===

Zuo Village and Takeshi Banping Tai did not stop at Shangzong too much, and started to rush to Tosa early the next morning.

The establishment of the Qin Wang Party must be as early as possible, and the plan will be implemented in the spring of next year. Now it is almost September, and the time is pressing.

The two have to go to Oda Castle and Sakamoto Ryoma to meet, and then return to Tosa together.

When the two passed by, they stayed at a hotel.

In the hotel, there was also a short-statured samurai guest wearing a hat.

......

Zuo Cun bought some wine.

He climbed to the roof alone.

It was cloudy tonight, but occasionally the moon could be seen through the gaps in the clouds.

Sitting alone under the moon and drinking alone is the greatest joy when Zuo Cun is alone.

He likes to drink more and more, because if you drink too much, you don't have to think about too many things.

And downstairs, the figure returning from going out, looking at Zuo Cun sitting on the roof of the hotel, paused for a while. ,

"Zuo Village... Anno."

Zuo Cun only cared about drinking and didn't feel at all.

However, after drinking for a while, when Zuo Cun was drunk, he felt as if someone else had come to the roof besides himself.

He thought it was Mrs. Banping of Wushi, but Mrs. Banping of Wushi stepped on the tile. It was not the sound. The footsteps of the people who came were much lighter.

"Your Excellency... come to see me, what are you doing?" Zuo Cun drank the wine and didn't look back, just said so.

But Zuo Cun's hand had already grasped He He's hilt.

"Don't do anything." A cold female voice sounded behind Zuo Cun, "It's just that I came to see you."

Zuo Village was stunned.

This sound...

After a long silence, neither of them moved.

Zuo Cun blinked and poured another glass of wine.

Then hand it to the back.

"Want to drink?"

Okita took the wine handed over by Zuo Cun without hesitation and drank it cleanly.

"Cough!" She coughed twice, "I really don't know why you like to drink this kind of thing."

"Drink and drink, and you'll get used to it." Zuo Cun poured the wine again and shook the glass, "I actually know that what's in the glass can never make up for sorrow, but it can make people temporarily forget the pain."

"Does Mr. Zuo Cun really suffer?" Okita's tone brought a bit of questioning.

"...It's not so much pain, it's just self-pity." Zuo Cun looked at the wine in the glass, the moonlight reflected on it, allowing Zuo Cun to see his face, "It's just... .. a guy who doesn't cherish feelings, just give up on himself."

"Actually, you cherish feelings very much." Miss Okita took two steps forward and held Zuo Cun's head, "If you really don't cherish feelings, why don't you look back at me?"

Zuo Cun gritted his teeth and drank the drink in the glass again.

"Hey, Okita, in your thoughts, which is more important, belief or emotion?"

"......I have no idea."

Okita pursed his lips, his expression gloomy.

"...That's right, you have always been the two guys Shimazaki and Hijikata to help you make decisions." Zuo Village smiled.

"Are you making fun of me?" Okita frowned.

"No." Zuo Cun stood up, patted his clothes, turned around, looked at Chief Okita, at this swordsman genius, at this young girl who had just grown up.

He gently hugged Mr. Okita.

"Your purity is the best gift to this troubled world."

"Instead of letting you become me, people like Shimazaki and Hijikata, let's just do it."

Zuo Cun didn't dare to let go and looked into Okita's eyes.

"Zuo Village, I..." Okita didn't know what to say.

"I didn't dare to face myself in the past, but I understand, I always understand." Zuo Village held back tears, bit his lip, and squeezed out words between his lips, "I really want to leave Tosa, and you, Together with Hijikata Shimazaki Inoue, we will try out the life in the ekan, but I can't."

"Before dawn, all roads are dark, and no one knows which is the right one. I couldn't convince myself to give up my beliefs and my path to go down the earth, so I'm sorry, really sorry. "

Okita pondered for a while, then hugged Zuo Cun with his backhand and patted his back.

"You don't need to say sorry to me, Zuo Cun."

"Master once said to me that samurai should have their own beliefs."

"You and Shimazaki just have different ideas, and they won't necessarily go down the opposite path in the future."

Zuo Cun couldn't help laughing while listening to Miss Okita's clumsy comfort.

"That's fine then."

Zuo Cun let go of Okita and walked past her.

Okita turned around: "Zuo Cun, why don't I--"

"Okita!" Zuo Cun interrupted Okita's words.

He knew what Okita wanted to say.

"My path is not suitable for you, and I will not let you follow me."

"Go and go with Shimazaki, Hijikata and the others."

"...If, when dawn arrives, neither you nor I die in this troubled world...I will find you."

Zuo Cun did not continue to say more.

After jumping up, there was only Chief Okita left on the roof.

Feeling the remaining temperature, she bit her lip.

"Then... that's it."

......

Zuo Cun returned to his room and pushed Wu Shi Banping Tai, who was still sleeping.

"Get up, Wu Shijun."

"Ang? Is it dawn?" Wu Shi Banping sat up sleepily.

"Not yet... But let's go." Zuo Cun was apologetic.

However, he was afraid that if he stayed here again, he would let Okita follow him.

As he said, before dawn, all roads are dark, and no one knows which road can pursue the ultimate sunshine.

However, the road chosen by Zuo Cun is destined to be unsuitable for Okita.

A pure girl like Okita, as expected, still needs the optimists from Shimazaki and Hijikata to illuminate her.

I'm sorry, Miss Okita.

The two packed their luggage, left the hotel, and continued to walk towards Oda Castle.

Miss Okita looked at Zuo Cun who was leaving without saying a word.

The wine Zuo Cun just drank was still on the roof.

Okita sat where Zuo Cun had just sat, picked up the remaining wine, tilted his neck, and drank all the remaining wine.

"Cough cough! It's so spicy!"

......

Zuo Cun and Takeshi Banping Tai both walked very fast, and arrived at Oda Castle in less than a week.

After meeting with Ryoma Sakamoto, the four of them quickened their pace and returned to Tosa.

Time is pressing, and the success of the Tosa King's Party cannot be delayed immediately.

The three rented a car and finally returned to Tosa in mid-October.

The three of them drew up an oath.
