Chapter 306 Triumphant! The Whole City of Edo Is Shocked! [5600]

Marry my sister - Kanazawa Chusuke's words were like an electric current, starting from the ear piercing, and instantly spread throughout Qingto's body.

Affected by this "current", Qingdeng's body trembled slightly uncontrollably, and goosebumps appeared on his skin.

Qingdeng felt his neck was stiff and subconsciously thought that he had heard wrongly.

He turned his head and cast a shocked look at Kanazawa Chusuke - are you kidding? Qingden asked with his eyes.

Kanazawa Chusuke felt Aoto's gaze.

He smiled and responded to Qingdeng with firm eyes - yes, you heard it right, I just told you: You marry my sister.

"Uh, haha...Kanazawa-kun."

Qingden swallowed and moistened his inexplicably dry throat. He tightened his cheeks and forced out a slight smile. He tried his best to say in a half-joking tone:

"What's wrong? Why did you recruit me to be your brother-in-law so suddenly?"

"What other reasons could there be? I think you are a very good person! You are handsome, tall, talented, and have a bright future. More importantly, you haven't married yet! You don't have a fiancée! You are a perfect match for Xiaoqin! And Xiaoqin is also just right. like you very much!"

Kanazawa Chusuke put his hands on his hips and spoke in a serious tone.

"Ji Jun, I don't know if you've noticed that Xiaoqin has a good impression of you."

"I'm ashamed to say that, as Xiaoqin's brother, I was only recently surprised to realize that my sister is attracted to you."

Kanazawa Chusuke stretched out his right index finger and wiped his upper lip horizontally, with a slight grin on his face, looking ashamed.

"Lately, Xiaoqin always talks about you at home."

"Talk about me?"

Qingdeng asked back.

"Oh, yes."

Kanazawa Chusuke nodded.

"What did Miss Kanazawa say about me?"

"Ha...just those few words over and over again."

Kanazawa Chusuke shrugged, and the smile on his face turned into a bitter smile. At the same time, there was an extra layer of complex emotions in the eyes he cast towards Qingden.

"What about 'Mr. Tachibana comes to Chiba Sword Hall again today'?"

"What about 'Mr. Tachibana's swordsmanship is really amazing'."

"What about 'brother, you have to be like Mr. Tachibana'."

When he said this last sentence, the complex emotions contained in Kanazawa Chusuke's eyes were no longer vague, but condensed into a real existence.

"I've been there too, so I know what it means to always have another member of the opposite sex's name on your lips."

"But at first, I wasn't sure whether my sister really liked you."

"Although it's not appropriate for me as an elder brother to say this...but my sister's fierce temperament does not seem like she would fall in love with a man like an ordinary woman."

"As of recently, I am finally convinced: Xiaoqin does have unusual feelings for you."

"Mr. Ju, I think you are more or less aware of it, right? Xiaoqin has obviously taken a liking to you during the few days she has been in the military camp. She comes to greet you every once in a while."

"No, I just came to give you cotton-padded clothes in person."

"I have never enjoyed this kind of treatment! That stinky girl has never taken the initiative to give me cotton-padded clothes! I really envy you...ah, no...forget it, just pretend that I didn't say what I just said..."

"..." Qingden ignored Kanazawa Chusuke who suddenly felt sorry for himself, pursed his lips and said nothing.

After delivering a long speech, Kanazawa Chusuke stretched out his hand to open the lapel of his shirt as if he felt hot - in fact, he did feel very hot at the moment.

It was the first time for Kanazawa Chusuke to do such a thing as a matchmaker for his sister, or to personally ask a certain man if he wanted to be his brother-in-law.

The mood was much more intense than expected.

It was obviously early winter, and there were countless snowflakes flying above his head, but at this time, a thin layer of sweat broke out on Kanazawa Tadatsuki's forehead.

With his chest open, Kanazawa Chusuke used his hands as a fan while continuing to talk:

"Ji Jun, I'm not bragging, Xiaoqin is indeed a good girl."

Kanazawa Chusuke raised the first finger.

"First of all - there is nothing to say about his appearance. He is twenty-nine years old, the same age as you. He is slim and graceful. His eyes are bright, his teeth are white, and his eyebrows are slender."

"Except for being too tall, there is nothing wrong with your appearance - and this only problem is not a problem for you, Mr. Ju, because you are taller than Xiaoqin, standing next to Xiaoqin When we are together, we won’t be gossiped about by those long-tongued people.”

Kanazawa Chusuke raised his second finger.

"Secondly, my family background is very good."

"My Kanazawa family is the flagship of the family with a salary of 1,000 shi, and my family background is so pure that even the snowflakes above our heads would make us feel ashamed! Although we are not a famous family, we have never produced villains!"

When saying this, Kanazawa Chusuke puffed up his chest and his face was full of pride.

"at last--"

Kanazawa Chusuke raised the third finger.

"Xiaoqin is a kind-hearted Nadeshiko, not a shrew who is beautiful on the outside but corrupted on the inside."

"Not only is she highly skilled in swordsmanship, she will be able to take care of the family well when she gets married, but she is also good at all the skills that a daughter of the martial arts family should know: embroidery, flower arrangement, tea ceremony, incense ceremony..."

"In general, Xiaoqin doesn't have any intolerable shortcomings except for her temperament that is occasionally too impatient and impulsive."

Having said this, Kanazawa Chusuke slowly lowered the three raised fingers.

As if he was recalling something sad, the remaining air in his lungs turned into a long sigh that was frozen into white mist by the cold winter wind.

"Ah, I almost forgot...Xiaoqin has another shortcoming: she has too high standards."

"As early as three years ago, my father and mother and I introduced many outstanding men to Xiaoqin."

"But for the talents we introduce... Xiaoqin always doesn't like two things - she doesn't like this, and she doesn't like that."

"So, I was really happy when I found out that Xiaoqin was attracted to you - this stinky girl finally came to her senses."

"Ju Jun, if I miss you, I don't know how long it will take for Xiaoqin to meet an outstanding person who can make her have a strong affection for her again. That's why I can't wait to ask you now if you are interested in dating Xiaoqin. marriage."

"So...Tachibana-kun, what do you think?"

The smile on Kanazawa Chusuke's face disappeared bit by bit at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his expression gradually became serious.

"What do you think of Xiaoqin?"

"do you like her?"

"Do you intend to marry her?"

"If you also like Xiaoqin, then when I return to Edo in the future, I can help you two get married right away! In 2 months at the latest, you and I can get married!"

Kanazawa Tadatsuki asked questions quickly and continuously like a machine gun, hitting Qingteng's head and making him dizzy.

"..."

Qingdeng lowered his head in silence, staring straight at the snow in front of his toes.

The reason why Qingto lowered his head suddenly was of course not because there was anything on the ground that caught his eye. It was simply because lowering his head and not looking at Kanazawa Chusuke made him feel inexplicably relieved.

However, even if he lowered his head, Qingto could still feel Kanazawa Chusuke's gaze that contained strong will, and his scalp had a burning sensation that came and went.

Recall what Kanazawa Chusuke said just now - he was absolutely right. No matter from which aspect you look at it, Kanazawa Qin is a very outstanding woman.

You need good looks, you need talent, you need good family background. She is fully worthy of the nickname given to her by the busybodies at the Little Chiba Sword Hall: "Little Sanako".

Being able to be dubbed the "degraded version of Chiba Sanako"... In a sense, this is an incredible achievement.

There are countless women who are not even qualified to compare with Sanako.

Although in terms of appearance and figure, Kanazawa Qin cannot compare with monsters like Kinoshita Mai, Sanako, Souji, and Tenzouin who have scores of over 90 or 100, but their scores are at least starting from 80.

Aoshino's family had just been promoted to the banner of Sengoku a while ago, and they were the same family as the Kanazawa family, with the same amount of family income. If Qingden could marry Kanazawa Qin, it would definitely be considered a good match.

but……

but……

As early as when Kanazawa Chusuke said to him, "Tachibana-kun, please marry my sister," Qingto already had the answer in his heart.

The answer appeared so quickly, without even a moment's hesitation. Even so, it is not out of spite or whim, it is just based on the truest feelings.

The content of this answer was so cruel... It made Qingto feel inexplicably guilty, and he hesitated to speak. He didn't know how to speak, and he didn't know how to explain to Kanazawa Chusuke...

"Um...Kanazawa-kun, I'm sorry, I..."

Qingdeng quietly hid this feeling of guilt deep in his heart and responded softly while carefully choosing his words.

He had just raised his head and only said "Sorry". Before he could even think of a euphemism, he was interrupted by Kanazawa Chusuke:

"Ah, okay, no need to say more."

Qingdeng was startled and slowly raised his head - before him was a bitter expression dominated by strong regret and regret.

"I don't want to hear it anymore. If I keep listening, I might cry."

After making a joke that was not funny in a stiff tone, Kanazawa Chusuke closed his eyes and inhaled hard.

After sucking all the clothes up to his upper body, he let out an "ouch" and turned the sorrow in his heart into a voice.

"Ji Jun, you... don't like my sister?"

"No."

Qingdeng shook his head vigorously without thinking.

"My sister... Miss Kanazawa is a very good woman. I admire her very much. I have absolutely no disgust or dislike for her. It's just..."

In the middle of speaking, Qingdeng paused due to hesitation.

"only……"

Qingdeng's cheeks slowly relaxed, and the corners of his mouth also relaxed.

A calm and joyful smile floated on Qingden's cheeks like summer clouds.

"It's just - I already have a sweetheart."

There are already two girls living in Qingto's heart, leaving no room for Kanazawa Qin to stop.

Hearing Aoshito's answers, Kanazawa Chusuke first let out a bitter laugh of "Ah haha", then raised his hand to scratch his head and said in a low voice:

"Tachibana-kun, the person you like...could it be Chiba Sanako from the Little Chiba Sword Hall?"

Although Kanazawa Chusuke's sentence was in the form of a question, his tone was that of an affirmative sentence, as if he was already sure of the answer.

Qingdeng raised his eyebrows with surprise on his face and asked with neither affirmation nor denial:

"Why do you ask?"

"Hahaha……"

Kanazawa Chusuke smiled bitterly again.

"Because Xiaoqin often mentioned to me: You and Miss Chiba Sanako have a very good relationship. Every time you come to Xiao Qianba Sword Hall as a guest, you are basically inseparable from Miss Chiba Sanako."

"..." Qingdeng, who didn't know how to answer the question for a moment, burst out laughing.

"That's fine..."

Kanazawa Chusuke looked up to the sky and sighed, waving his hands.

"You can't force something like emotion."

"Since falling flowers are intentional and flowing water is ruthless, then there is no need to force it."

"Losing to Miss Chiba Sanako... losing to the person I most admire, Xiaoqin can be considered a proud loser."

"Xiaoqin, I admire Miss Chiba Sanako the most."

"Before I met you, Miss Chiba Sanako was always the elder one and Miss Chiba Sanako was the shorter one."

"As if Miss Chiba Sanako is the most perfect woman in the world... Well, from all aspects, Miss Chiba Sanako is indeed a perfect woman..."

Aoto, who silently listened to Kanazawa Chusuke's complaints, secretly added in his heart:

——To be precise... Sanako is one of my favorite people...

…

Although he couldn't bear it, Qingteng still firmly issued a "good guy card" to Kanazawa Qin.

Unsurprisingly, as soon as this "good guy card" was issued, embarrassment immediately surrounded Ayoto and Kanazawa Tadatsuki.

In less than half an hour, a pair of brothers and sisters were disturbed by an awkward atmosphere - it must be said that this can be regarded as a rare spectacle.

Kanazawa Chusuke, who was embarrassed and couldn't find any reason to stay here any longer, casually chatted a few words and then found a reason to leave.

But he stopped just after taking a few steps.

"Ah... By the way, I almost forgot to say..."

Kanazawa Chusuke turned his head and returned to a solemn expression.

"Tachibana-kun, let me give you a heads up."

"As for the Akabane Koichiro you killed... I, my grandson-kun, and Mizushima-kun all agree that you were right to kill him! This kind of Xiaoxiao who dares to blatantly disobey military orders should be killed!"

"Recently, no matter where you go, you can hear the team members discussing the dispute between you and that Akabane Koichiro. According to my observations and statistics, the vast majority of people are on your side!"

Qingdeng blinked and smiled.

The Third Division and Riki Akaha Koichiro were chopped in half by Aoden's sword for disobeying orders in front of the battle line - this incident has spread throughout the army at a flying speed in recent days!

Although superior officials have the right to enforce military laws against subordinate officials who violate military regulations, due to various reasons such as the special social atmosphere and the increasing prevalence of bureaucracy, the soldiers of the Huo Fu Thief Reform have not seen this kind of "unity with force" for a long time. Jing'er, a high-ranking general, was killed without saying a word."

For a time, Qingdeng became a "hot person" in the military camp, and the popularity has not subsided until now.

Some people praise Qingdeng for his ability to cut with a sword and to act vigorously and resolutely. It is reasonable and reasonable to impose capital punishment on rebels.

Some people hurt Qingdeng by acting too hastily and cutting off the wood. The family power behind Akabane Koichiro is not small, and it will be unlucky for a child of such a family to act rashly.

Regardless of whether they were those who praised Qingdeng or those who disparaged Qingdeng, they were all shocked by Qingdeng's behavior that he dared not hesitate to take action against his well-established family.

Qingden shook his shoulders and said with a joking tone to Kanazawa Chusuke:

"Thanks for the support. I'm glad to hear you say that."

Kanazawa Tadashi smiled and waved his hand:

"Anyone in the army with a right mind will strongly support your actions. If the arrogant people who resist military orders are not severely punished, the morale of the army will be lost."

"Whether it's based on emotion or logic, your execution of Akabane Koichiro is blameless."

"only……"

As Kanazawa Chusuke's conversation suddenly changed, a trace of worry crossed his eyebrows.

"After all, Akabane Koichiro is a disciple of Hatamoto with a family fortune of nearly a thousand stones."

"Even if he is wrong first, his people may not buy it."

"We cannot rule out the possibility that Akabane Koichiro's tribe will come to trouble you in the future."

"Although I am not a parent yet, I understand how parents feel."

"A close relative...especially an heir is killed. Most people in this world have no sense at all when faced with such a thing."

"So Tachibana-kun, please be more careful in the future and be careful of the Akabane family's revenge."

"Although you and I are not destined to be brothers, we are still comrades who fight side by side and go through life and death together!"

Kanazawa Chusuke smiled and patted his chest, and his muscles made a muffled sound.

"If you encounter any trouble in the future, you are welcome to come to me! I will do my best to help you in any way I can!"

Qingto, who was looking directly at Kanazawa Tadatsuki, couldn't help but let out a joyful laugh at this moment.

——The Akabane family...hehe...

Qingdeng, who was thinking so secretly, quietly sneered indifferently in his heart.

Of course, Qingdeng remained calm on the surface.

To be honest, Kanazawa Chusuke's guarantee probably has no chance of being fulfilled.

Qingden never cared about the existence of the Akabane family.

To put it bluntly - when Aoden drew his sword to kill Akabane Koichiro, he was already mentally prepared to suffer revenge from the Akabane family in the future, and he didn't care about it!

Aoto's past, present, and even future will not show any regret for Akabane Koichiro's death.

Even if the Akabane family does come to him to "settle accounts" in the future, Qingden will have plenty of ways to deal with it.

As for the method...that will be kept secret for the time being.

However, even so, Qingto still felt warm in his heart when he heard Kanazawa Chusuke say this, and his joy was beyond words.

The corners of his mouth were slightly curved into an indifferent arc.

"Well, okay! I will!"

He responded to Kanazawa Chusuke's sincere heart with a loud and powerful voice.

…

…

After successfully uprooting the Xiangma clan and successfully restoring peace to the mountains, the expeditionary army rested and reorganized in Daohe Village for six days.

The villagers of Inawa Village, who were overjoyed to finally escape from the clutches of the Soma Clan, sent the expeditionary troops off with such enthusiasm that even Aomori and the others felt a little embarrassed.

After marching for four days and three nights, the expeditionary army successfully returned to Edo, which they had not seen for a long time.

On the day of victory, the whole city of Edo was shocked!

The soldiers lined up in three columns escorted the captured bandits and marched in high spirits through the streets where the people lined the streets to welcome them.

The captured bandits were all stuffed into a huge bamboo cage, one person per cage, and carried like livestock into the midst of the people's shouts and curses.

Along the way, people kept singing at the top of their lungs about Huo Fu Thief's achievements.

How could he wipe out the bandits with the force of thunder...

Why level up to thousands of people...

Why will there be no more bandits in Kaifei in the next three years...

I have to say that people’s imagination is really rich.

Except that the crusade army indeed attacked and destroyed the Xiangma people with thunderous force, most of the rest of the news were just false rumors.

But from another perspective, the widespread spread of these exaggerated rumors has played a certain positive role.

That is to say, more and more people were quickly attracted to watch the victorious army returning in triumph and the escorting of the prisoners!

Only people with funny brains will have a good impression of bandits.

Only those who are either stupid or bad will imagine that they are occupied by the handsome bandit leader as his wife, and then he is devotedly doted on by the bandit leader - basically, all bandit leaders are like Yokokura Kei A rough guy like Nosuke: with a sinister face, stern eyes, and arrogance!

Therefore, the people of Edo were very happy to see the miserable prisoners locked tightly in bamboo cages!
