save the judge

Jingongjiquan paused the hand holding the cup, staring at the vibration knife, feeling a little guilty for some reason.

Fortunately, he is not in Honmaru now, otherwise he would have been able to imagine the aggrieved expressions of Qingguang and the daggers.

The sword wrapped in soft cotton cloth is slender and slightly curved. Tokugawa Momomo swiftly took the sword out of its sheath. The blade was as bright as a pool of clear spring. The emblem, with a horizontal line carved under it, is slender and delicate, almost beautiful.

"I don't know what kind of sword you like. Most of the swords stored in the palace hall lack maintenance, and the chrysanthemum one character has been maintained because it is the emperor's ceremonial sword..." Speaking of this, he also found out what Something was wrong, he blinked his eyes and stopped talking.

Jingu Jiquan consciously or unintentionally avoided picking up the knife: "You also know that this is a ritual saber for the emperor?"

Tokugawa Momo, who got the sword and ran out excitedly to present the treasure to his elder brother, didn't think of this at all. In his opinion, his elder brother was the established heir of the imperial family. What's wrong with using the emperor's saber?

"And it's not a real combat sword." Jingujiquan added, pushing the expensive sword back to Tokugawa through the cotton cloth, "It's useless for me to hold it, and it's still eye-catching."

The young general let out a resentful sigh, and slowly packed up the things and put them away casually: "When will the elder brother come back? He has played outside for a long time, right? It's really hard to deal with my aunt."

Moreover, there are Xiangyi elements who kidnapped his brother——

Tokugawa, who took the initiative to make the situation serious, was worried: "Why don't you tell the Shinsengumi to follow your brother these few days, their skills can be seen."

Jingujiquan was picking the roundest and plump cherries in the fruit plate, and holding four or five in one hand took up more than half of the palm. Hearing this, he immediately raised his head: "What Shinsengumi? No, you can keep it. "

Is he crazy to have Shinsengumi wear uniforms and swords as his bodyguards in Yoshiwara? !

Tokugawa Momo thought it was not appropriate, so he took a step back reluctantly: "Then let them stop wearing uniforms and pretend to be ordinary attendants."

Jingujiquan was really convinced by this cheap brother's thinking, stuffed the cherry in his hand into his mouth, and just shook his head lazily.

There were two soft knocks on the door, urging the general to return home on time, Tokugawa Momo had a serious face, the joyful atmosphere with bright eyes just now disappeared, and the whole person's temperament was gloomy down.

He quietly raised his eyes to look at Jingujiquan, as if expecting him to say something, so he logically found an excuse to stay. Who knew that Jingujiquan picked up the towels on the table and wiped them clean one by one. Shuizhu's finger raised his chin towards him: "Let's go."

"Oh." The young general lowered his head in grievance, agreed in a muffled voice, stood up slowly, walked a few steps before remembering the word Juyi that had been pulled down, and turned around to pick up the knife again.

The oiran with loose long hair has regained the dignified and beautiful appearance in the eyes of outsiders, with her head slightly lowered, and the black silk kimono is covered with snow-white wings and scarlet beaks. Under the feet of a crane with a vermilion beak, there are beautiful clusters of flowers, which grow to the ground. There was a rustling sound as the sleeves rubbed against the straw mat, and Tokugawa Momo, who had already walked to the corridor, couldn't help turning his head back: "Well, I'll ask someone to send some palace satin over later, I heard that my aunt usually only uses That kind of material, and several fashionable patterns newly dyed..."

There are more than a dozen strong and heroic attendants standing in a row under the corridor, and people from the Shinsengumi can be vaguely seen walking around and patrolling outside the yard. Tokugawa Shigeru kept talking for a long time , and then looked at Jingujiquan eagerly, and couldn't think of anything to say: "Then I'll go first?"

Jingujiquan listened absent-mindedly, pinching a few cherries in the other hand, wondering if the cherries here are delicious, should I take two catties with me when I go back, and caught a glimpse of a star-like white light from the corner of my eye .

?

what is that?

On the side of the corridor against the wall, there is a gold-plated lamp pole made of a palace lantern every six to seven meters. The thin pole more than one meter high bends downwards in a beautiful arc, hooking a classical octagonal lamp. Lanterns are painted with various landscape ladies on them. The light from the candles is not very bright. In order to set off this kind of drunken and blurred scene, the paper of the lantern is double-layered, which also makes the surrounding light like It is as hazy and gentle as a layer of mist.

If people stay here for a little longer, they will have a dreamy feeling of going to sleep in a trance.

As soon as Jingujiquan came out of the room, he didn't have such a sense of confusion, and subconsciously looked towards the strange light.

Just as he turned his head halfway, a familiar wind buzzed, and Jinguji Izumi's heart shuddered. He suddenly realized something, and without making a sound, he snatched the loosely wrapped bag from Tokugawa Momomo's hand. Cloth bag, raised his foot and kicked this stupid cheap brother away without any politeness.

Under the eyes of everyone, the young general rolled all the way from the corridor along the steps to the courtyard, and Jingujiquan raised his hand, only to hear a crisp "Dang", and the clashing sound of the sword and the scabbard was harsh and sharp .

The faces of the guards who hadn't reacted just now changed drastically. Several of them helped the general back up, and the rest drew their swords and surrounded him.

Jingujiquan grabbed the knife in a hurry just now, holding the chrysanthemum as if holding a firewood stick. The piece of cloth hanging on it was split by the opponent, and it was broken into two halves and fell to the ground unsteadily. It shows the slender and clumsy scabbard of Ju Yiwen.

Jingujiquan didn't pay attention to the guards who were slowly surrounding him, his gaze met the one that was thrown across the crossed swords.

The man in the purple-bottomed gold butterfly bathrobe is smiling, with snow-white bandages wrapped around his forehead and left eye, and the exposed right eye is shining like a fierce beast, but his face still shows affection and gentleness. Holding the handle of the knife with both hands, he pressed against Ju Yiwen's scabbard forcefully, without relaxing his strength at all.

Tokugawa Momo, who had been thrown, shook his head vigorously before regaining his sanity. When he looked up and saw the situation on the corridor, his breath was stuck in his chest and he couldn't get up or down. He could only ruthlessly tug on the guards beside The collar: "Brother-cough cough cough, whoever saves that one, the assassin runs away, don't hurt anyone else!"

Takasugi Shinsuke's voice was low and hoarse, as if layers of sandpaper had been worn through, revealing an ambiguous taste. He didn't care that his blade was resting less than half a foot in front of his eyes, and he even held it in his hand. Constantly exerting strength, he turned his face sideways and talked to Jingujiquan affectionately: "You have become his sweetheart so quickly? You can even let people who want to kill you run away, just to save you?"

Although Jingu Jiquan's health has improved a lot, it is still impossible to compete with Takasugi Shinsuke, who has practiced swords all the year round. He pursed his lips tightly, fearing that the moment he opened his mouth, he would lose his strength, and even Takasugi leaned over frivolously to stick it. He didn't care what he said.

After finishing these words, Takasugi did not move his face away immediately, his eyes moved from Jingujiquan's long hair scattered on the sideburns to his slightly wrinkled black eyebrows, and his lips dyed Komachi red seemed to have a mouthful The petals in full bloom, the anger that made him invulnerable also slowly subsided.

"You stopped me, so what should I do?" Without even looking at the guards surrounding him, Gao Shan's tone was filled with real distress, "You like him? How dare you block me for him... ..."

Jingujiquan's dark eyes rolled, and the tails of his brows were lowered, as if he was about to reveal a captivating smile. Takasugi was in a trance for a moment, when he heard the fierce wind coming from behind, he immediately made up his mind, swung the knife with his backhand first, It was against another powerful and heavy knife.

--"It's you."

Gao Shan knew who it was just by touching it, without even raising his eyes, he said this sentence in a deep voice.

Yinshi lowered his eyelids and looked at this former classmate friend, something complicated flashed in his dark red pupils, and soon disappeared.

He and Kagura Shinpachi squatted in the backyard, wasting time, waiting for the oiran to take them out, but suddenly there was noise in the courtyard, as if something had happened.Kagura, who was so curious that she could scare a cat to death, insisted on taking a look, so Gintoki could only follow behind her. As soon as she turned around the corridor, she felt a tense atmosphere.

In the courtyard full of swords, the romantic warrior and the beautiful oiran, if the swords in their hands were not still touching each other, it might not be regarded as some kind of strange taste.

The first thing Yinshi saw was the purple-backed golden butterfly bathrobe with his back facing him, which was of poor taste as always, while the young man who confronted him had long hair loose, and the black kimono sleeves were spread out like flowers, The crane above has snow-white wings, and the vermilion camellias spread all over the ground, and the bright red lips are reflected on Takasugi's bright knife, like a newly fallen petal on the blade.

It is beautiful and colorful, but also has a sharp and bewitching charm that would drink people's blood.

He knew Takasugi's strength very well, Yinshi's heart tightened, and he also forgot that he used to avoid these guys, so he subconsciously pulled out of Lake Toya, kicked his feet hard on the ground, and shot towards him like an arrow flying from the string. Go over there.

In the middle of the rush, he realized that it didn't seem to be his business. Anyway, there are so many guys waiting to show off in front of the general. Instead of confronting that psychopath Takasugi, he might as well turn around and sneak out to eat a glass of strawberries now. Buffy -

"Ayin, this is the way to see injustice and draw your sword to help!"

Gintoki spoke nonsense seriously.

Gao Shan has long been used to his shameless style of running the train, he gave a low laugh, then his eyes sharpened, and he swung his knife like a storm and smashed Yinshi in, every knife was aimed at the vital point, There was no gesture of holding back at all, and Yinshi also knew how serious his classmate's psychopathy was, so he didn't dare to take it lightly, and gritted his teeth to fight him hard.

The two swords collided crazily and then separated extremely quickly. The swift and deadly style of the sword made the hearts of the people around them tremble, and they involuntarily stepped back a few steps. Chuan Maomao jumped forward and dragged him to the back. The two were surrounded by a circle of guards, and they couldn't get in for a while.

In the courtyard, the two fought inseparably, and the Shinsengumi who heard the movement outside also rushed in, and the leader was none other than Okita Sougo.

As soon as the young man with short chestnut hair came in, he stared at the two people who were fighting, his eyes lit up, as if he saw some big baby, and he was so excited that he became energetic.

Jingujiquan secretly screamed that it was not good, he did not bring Gintoki here to let him be arrested by the Shinsengumi, and Takasugi——

Oh, it's okay to catch this one.

Thinking of this, he stuffed Juyi's words back into Tokugawa Momo's hands, and while everyone's attention was on the two opponents, he apologized apologetically to Brother Cheap: "I'm sorry, I must Go back as soon as possible."

Tokugawa Momo looked blankly at the brother who suddenly apologized, and before he could ask why he was apologizing, a strong force came from his buttocks—this feeling!It's the same as when it just rolled down!

As soon as this thought turned around, Tokugawa Momo rolled to Okita Sougo's feet clattering and clattering, holding Kikuichi's words "slip on the foot".

Tokugawa Momo: ...? ?

Okita Satoru:……! !

Okita Sougo, who had just pulled out his sword and was about to raise his foot to rush over, had to perform a high leg raise in place to avoid the tragedy of stepping on the general's face.

And Jingujiquan saw Okita's unsheathed sword, which looked similar to the Kikuichi script he had just handled-but shouldn't Okita's saber be Qingguang and Anding?

Jingujiquan, who suddenly had this idea flashed into his mind, was a little distracted because of the inopportune moment.
