To the eternal you

"Boss, give me another cup of brown rice tea, no brown rice."

In the wooden leak tea room, Taro Maru was ordering the menu with his mouth in his mouth, squatting obediently at the door, nodding and wagging his tail.

Ying's gaze moved left and right following her swaying tail, her left hand firmly pressing down on her right hand's urge to pet the dog.

"Wow!" (middle!)

"Give me another three-color dumpling! No, no, let's have two. It's rare to sneak out today. I want to eat more~"

The little Highness had already eaten his mouth full, and Miss Shenli, who was smiling softly beside her, handed her tea, and at the same time said in a soft voice: "Your Highness should chew and eat slowly, in order to be in line with etiquette."

Paimon, who was no better than the little guy on the side, suddenly paused in embarrassment, and changed from the original bold dual-wielding method to single-wielding. After all, from a certain point of view, the way he eats like a child is a bit of a blow to his self-esteem.

"Speaking of which, why hasn't Thomas come back yet? Something else must have happened, or he's already been caught. The people from the Heavenly Commander are on their way to arrest us."

Ying always thinks that this kind of method of gathering and arranging who to inquire about is a flag with a very high death rate.

"Really, although I am very happy to be cared by new friends, but please forgive me for such a poisonous way!"

Thomas just opened the door and heard these words, and joked with a helpless smile on his face.

At this moment, the Mulou tea room has been temporarily emptied. After all, it was the young highness they brought out. If they bumped into each other outside, or were kidnapped by someone, I am afraid that the whole Daozuma city would be boiling, let alone the constant The tengu general who likes the little guy, don't look at the usual serious and businesslike look.

But in private, there is indeed room for people to change their feelings, and they are not particularly stern, even if they are repeat offenders like Yidou, they will not feel that Jiutiao Shaluo should not exist, or wish to have a life-and-death relationship with her, but this is also related to him. It doesn't matter if you are fluent, but you still maintain your original heart.

But even she would not easily bypass anyone who dared to abduct His Highness, even if the target was Aya Kamisato.

Being caught and tied to a tree as an archery target is the only end.

"Thomas, you're back. Report back after the break."

Miss Kamisato said softly, and at the same time sat a little closer to the traveler's seat, staying close but not particularly inappropriate. Thomas understood the lady's mind, so he didn't shirk, but It is to sit down on the spot.

"Hehe. Actually, it's not particularly tiring. In short, the city is still very peaceful now, and we haven't noticed that His Highness has left the castle tower. So as long as we grasp the time well, we should be able to catch up."

Thomas picked up a few peanuts and threw them into his mouth, chewing and talking.

"However, I still think we are too risky. If we are found out, even if you have prepared excuses such as taking your highness out to collect scenery and write poems, Miss, I am afraid that you will still be held accountable afterwards."

The few of them who were able to sneak out were relying on travelers to use the teleportation anchors. It would be a dream to come out of the heavily guarded and crowded castle tower. I even think that Thor has not found it now, it is all because of someone. Other things are more important, and I don't plan to take care of these little mice.

Cheese is delicious after all, but what about expensive cakes?

But no matter what she thinks, according to the plan, what they plan to do is to get in touch with the people who have lost their hearts as much as possible during the afternoon, and go back to the house before dinner, where Ying's portable teleportation anchor is stored. , so in theory, as long as they don't get too greedy, they can go back to the house before Oku-katsuki arrives.

After all, before leaving, Ms. Shensato and the Okujis had given orders not to disturb His Royal Highness's studies if there was anything important to do. With her authority, except for the general, only Kujosara could come in without notification, otherwise even Even if the important person from the enforcement office came, he had to obediently wait at the door, and if he said he didn't see him, he didn't see him.

Of course, this does not mean that she has such great authority, but because of the status granted to her by the general, as the teacher of the little Highness, this title is not big or small, but it does not give face, let alone bragging." "Pillow wind", just because the society adheres to the position of Dao Wife's writing style, masters part of the public opinion means of the people, finds some black material and hires people to spray it, it can spray you to death.

So Kujo Sharo, who is also not inferior, can ignore this influence. After all, she is also the master of the little highness, um... the martial arts teacher who teaches the little radish head self-defense.

But don't look at the little Highness's petite, or exquisite, jumping may not be enough for an adult's hand, but as a puppet developed after the general, although it does not have too much power, but the foundation is here, it's really urgent It's still okay for someone to jump up and crush their knees, leaving you with two biscuit-sized fist openings.

So strictly speaking, His Highness is at least as powerful as a big wild boar king, but he has no experience and can only charge long live and beat people with his small fists.But I have to say, the current Daozuma wouldn't let such a little guy to train, let alone the hopeless little Highness Kujosara.

Because of this, even though Ms. Shenli brought her out secretly, she was not brave enough to wander the streets with the little guy. This was asking for death, and someone handed her a knife to stab herself.

For this reason, in addition to asking Thomas to tell the person to come to the wooden leak tea room, he also inquired about the information on the castle tower by the way. It would be best if he could handle this matter quietly.

"Dong dong—" There was a sudden knock on the door.

"Oh, it seems that people are coming, so fast."

Thomas said in surprise.

"Well... who could it be? I'm so nervous!"

Paimon couldn't help but ate a few more mouthfuls of dumplings, and the little highness stopped. Although she was not very restrained in front of people she knew, she would still pretend to be a good child in front of people she didn't know.

"Please come in." Miss Shenli did not change her face, but called out gently.

The knocker also opened the door, walked in, and covered his mouth in surprise when he saw His Royal Highness.

"It's Elder Sister Xiaogong~" The little guy waved at her, and a charming smile emerged.

"Hey, it's really His Highness? Thomas didn't lie, if the matter of you sneaking out His Highness is known, it will be the end of it?!"

The name of the visitor is Nagano Yuanxiao Palace, and she is the summer festival queen of the Hanazaka generation. The family is the Naganohara family that has a history of making fireworks for a hundred years.

Xiaogong has beige hair, with light orange at the end of the slightly curly hair, the long hair is bundled up behind the head, blooming like a flower, two goldfish tails are on top, and the rest of the curly hair is on the bottom, the girl's youthful figure is wrapped in a The layer of white cloth is not thick, and the fruit has begun to take shape. At the same time, he is wearing the unique orange fireworks robe of the fireworks family. There is also a red flower print on the slender and round right arm, and a big butterfly-shaped red rope is tied behind the waist.

In terms of Inazuma's dressing style, Xiao Gong's dress is considered bold, and the one who usually wears it like this is a ronin samurai who can be called a cultural relic, and she is just a cute girl in her young age. .

However, Xiaogong's dressing like this is not because she likes to be deviant. She has a lively and lively temperament. the best man.

As an excellent person, there are some maverick actions, which will also be regarded as the "special" of the promise.What's more, she is not ugly. If she really wants to put her back into a serious look, there may be many people who secretly regret it.

And the reason why she got acquainted with His Royal Highness is also very simple. It is better to say that there is no other reason. As the most famous fireworks artist in Inazuma, holding an unprecedented fireworks festival at the end of the year is the year after she took over the Naganohara family. must do.

At that time, Ayaka Kamisato also just took over the position of the teacher of His Royal Highness, and she loved this child very much, so she entrusted Xiaogong to add the family crest of the Great Imperial Palace to the fireworks of the celebration, and the result was that Xiaogong relied on The unique trick of perspective, except for the fireworks hanging upside down in the night sky combined with Inazuma Castle seen by the people of Inazuma.

The flaming fireworks are like a huge picture scroll, and successfully let the little highness and the general who looked down at the fireworks in the castle tower see the triple bar of thunder made of fireworks, even with playful lace, which I haven't seen much How can the little crying bag in the world resist such a gorgeous and bright thing?

Not to mention the general with ulterior motives, just making His Royal Highness so happy, let Xiaogong establish the title of Queen of the Summer Festival, and was entrusted with the important task of holding the fireworks ceremony every year in the future.

In other words, regardless of her young age, Miss Xiaogong is already the top lady in the fireworks industry who eats from the official family, and a fireworks craftsman who can be popular everywhere with this craft alone, oh, except Zhidong.

After all, that group of people didn't appreciate this kind of thing very much, and even ridiculed that it was a trick that cowards and children would like to watch. Compared with setting off fireworks, they preferred to create a large equivalent "two kicks" that could blow up the entire city. foot".

Closer to home, Xiao Gong and His Royal Highness also met at that time, but the number of meetings has plummeted since then, and they can't see each other a few times throughout the year, unless Xiao Gong gave up his work and waited outside the castle tower. Regularly, she often missed His Royal Highness's travel time, and even regretted it for a long time.

And Yingzheng looked at her with a little curiosity. As soon as she entered the room, she hurriedly closed the door. Then she remembered something, opened the door and looked behind a few times, and then she breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest to go back into the room. The nagging girl didn't look like someone who needed the help of Heart Flower at all.

It seems that this Miss Xiaogong also has some secrets that belong to her.
