Vientiane Senro

"Beautiful Kaguya Hime," the man sat upright. He was wearing official formal attire with a neat and proper belt. His black robe hung on the tatami as he knelt down. On his head was a flat-topped tassel. Guan, he chanted a waka and said: "What exactly do you want to see my true heart?"

He was no longer young, and the hair on his head was mixed with silver threads, but his appearance was still well maintained, not at all old at his age, and the pampered life gave him the qualifications to maintain a good appearance.He recited the poems he wrote outside Kaguya Hime's house, and those were his feelings expressed by thinking about this goddess every day.When he was invited by Kaguya Ji, he rushed over ecstatically, just to let the goddess in his heart glimpse his longing.

There was a tulle curtain in front of him, and the beautiful figure on the other side could be seen vaguely. The man stared at him obsessively, with regret that he couldn't get close, but he kept his posture very well. Demeanor, did not make any gesture of disrespect.

Kaguya Ji lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes inside. She rolled up her sleeves and poured a pot of hot tea into a teacup made of purple sand. Curly smoke rose from the clear blue tea. She didn't speak for a while, only The sound of boiling water reverberated in this tea room... After everything was over, she pushed the teacup away, and immediately, a special person came to send the cup of clear tea to the outside world. We entertained visitor by himself.

She sighed softly: "Of course you see the sincerity of Mrs. Da Nayan's little girl. Kaguya Ji is just an ordinary girl, and it is really embarrassing to be pursued by all the adults. Whether it is you, It’s still His Royal Highness Ishizuku, the right minister Abe Yu-sama, and even Ishigami Nagon-sama, your sincerity is also seen by everyone..."

Otomo Miyuki Danayan thought of those opponents who came to Kaguya Hime very diligently like himself. Some of them were good at playing the flute, some were good at chords, and some sang emotional songs. Coupled with their own waka short poems... Everyone tried their best to express their strengths in front of their sweethearts.If it was a normal day, they might talk a little bit about the pursuit, but they all fell in love with Kaguya Hime, who is known as a goddess, and this also made their relationship vigilant.

"However, just like what I said to my father," Kaguya Ji said annoyedly: "There is only one little girl, and she is bound to let down the vast majority of everyone, and my father is always worried about this issue. I'm afraid that all the nobles' wishes will be thrown into vain."

"He often speaks good things for the adults in front of me, hoping that his children will live happily in a hundred years," Kaguya Ji said sadly: "My father is so worried about me, sometimes Kaguya Ji can't bear it." Keep blaming yourself..."

"Why is this so?" Dana Yan hurriedly said, he leaned forward, as if he couldn't bear Kaguya's sorrow, he comforted him gently: "It's not your fault that you are beautiful and excellent, it's us who lost our sense of proportion , will cause such great harm to your family, and this is why we are too emotional..."

Kaguya Ji covered her face with her sleeves, and she asked softly: "There are so many good women in this world, why don't you, Dainagon-sama..."

"No!" Da Nayan finally showed a trace of enthusiasm, and he praised in a very positive tone: "No woman can match Kaguya Hime's one-tenth of your beauty. If you can get Kaguya For your favor, Ji, I am willing to live 30 years less!"

Kaguya Ji finally fell silent, she turned her head slightly, and finally said: "Master Da Nayan, your persistence really touched the little girl... Then, I heard that there was a legend about the Dragon King in the sea, no Do you know if you can fetch the beautiful jade on the dragon head for me? Because I really don’t know who among you adults can love me more, so I can only use this method to test your sincerity in the end.”

"This is a test," Kaguya Ji glanced over from it: "I will set difficulties for each of you, and if anyone can get me the precious treasure that I love, then it will be too difficult for me." It shows that he will be the most suitable person for me to entrust my life."

"Ah!" Otomo Miyuki Danayan, who was still shocked by the news of the Dragon King's Jade from Kaguya Ji's mouth just now, immediately became excited: "Is what you said true?"

"Oh," Kaguya Ji sighed: "If you think this is really difficult, you can give up..."

Otomo Yuxing Danayan's expression was a little fluctuating. He had only heard about the existence of the Dragon King from some legends before, and taking the beautiful jade on his head was a kind of feeling that only people in the story could achieve. achievements.However, right now in front of Kaguya Ji, he really couldn't say the words to give up, what's more, he never thought of giving up, so he made a firm expression, and after saluting, he calmly said: "I will Do your best to do it, Kaguya Hime, please wait for my good news!"

After Da Nayan left, Kaguya Ji sat alone in the inner room of the teahouse, and she assigned some impossible tasks to the other big shots, such as the stone bowl in front of the Buddha, Penglai's Treasures like Yuzhi and Yanzi's Zi Anbei that she had heard about on the moon, faced with such goals that they knew were impossible to achieve, if they really couldn't, they should consciously give up the entanglement, right?Kaguya thought so.

"Is this your solution? My wise Highness Princess Huiye." A voice that could not be found before suddenly sounded from her side. It was the Void Demon that she had called many times before but did not respond. Its tone Very calm, calm and somewhat abnormal: "You really came up with a wonderful method. But unfortunately, you also underestimated the lower limit of some human beings."

"Where did you go before?" Kaguya Ji was surprised: "I thought you were finally going to let yourself go completely, leave me, the old man in the moon palace, and really live the life you want!"

The Void Demon didn't speak.It recalled the god who restrained it, and remembered the horror of its body being held by him, and the ensuing terrible experience, as if everything was seen through from the inside to the outside, and its voice became hoarse : "I just wandered around the city."

"Didn't you have a suitor who suddenly retreated on his own initiative?" The Void Demon said indifferently: "I also went to his mansion to take a look, that guy seems to be putting all his thoughts on the court recently. , probably because she suddenly felt that power is more attractive than beauties... and she is just an ordinary person on this earth."

"I think it would be even better if other people could see clearly like him." Kaguya Ji raised her eyebrows slightly, she seemed to believe what the Void Demon said, and was taken away from the topic by it: "This is Is it the price to pay for living on the land?"

It seems to be no different from being on the moon, both of which cannot live according to their own wishes.But it is also different from the moon. There are elderly couples who are wholeheartedly worried about themselves. Compared with the one who has never met a few times... Mr. Yueyueshen, it is the first time for her to experience this wonderful feeling Compared with the cold celestial beings and the strict and empty moon palace, this house that can be seen everywhere gave her a warm feeling.

And the Void Demon was also thinking about the god's intention to put him back. It twisted its body, a little suspicious of what he had done in its body, which made it dare not resist the opponent's attack at all. layout.

It glanced at Kaguya Ji again, wondering what he wanted from her.It comforted and said: "These people can't do anything to you, you will have to go back to the Moon Palace one day, you are a goddess in the sky, you are a creature favored by Lord Yueyueming, you..."

Or, his target...is not Kaguya Hime, but the god represented behind Kaguya Hime, Tsukiyomi-sama?

The Void Demon didn't dare to think about it anymore.
