Chapter 251: Ria Momotani
Uesugi Nobuyoshi's courtyard looks very chronological, with a huge stone screen inside Rutong's wooden door.
After turning to the screen, there are two doors at the front and back of the living room, and a few steps at the back door, leading to a living room.
In addition to pavilions and flowers and plants on both sides, there is also a huge hot spring pool and a human-faced tree.
Although it looks a lot worse than the yard where I lived in Spring, the environmental accessories on both sides have almost two different styles.
There are flower windows on all sides of the living room, and the sunlight comes in through the windows, making it dappled.
There is a jade table under the window, with a guqin placed on it. A girl wearing a kimono and a mask is stroking the body of the piano and playing music.
There is a round table in the center with a gold tablecloth and a set of white jade wine sets placed on it. The shining light is obviously not ordinary. There are also many people at this banquet. In addition to Uesugi Nobuyoshi and Uesugiya, Uesugi Xiong and two young people Also there.
"Water Lord!"
After taking off his shoes and entering the living room, everyone bowed slightly. In response, Cao Xiaochun just smiled and sat across from him carelessly. He had no interest in the country's kneeling ceremony and was very uncomfortable with it.
Cao Xiaochun had just entered the table when he saw several geishas walking slowly not far from the gate, holding round fans in their hands and dancing to the sound of the piano. However, their pale faces looked uncomfortable.
"Brother Jingyi and the old head of the Uesugi family are really interested."
Cao Xiaochun picked up the sake in the cup and took a sip. Although the alcohol content was not high, the taste was smooth, rich and mellow. Various medicinal materials were added to it. This wine was considered top-grade in this country.
On the table were sushi made of fish monsters, tempura and a small hot pot. This kind of specification is probably the best in this country except for the rumored "female body".
"As long as you enjoy your meal, it's fine. It's shameful to say that you've been here for so long and we just had a meal at the same table today. But we didn't entertain you well."
"Let me introduce to you, these two are Uesugi Lesheng and Uesugi Tianyu. They are both the best young people in the family."
Uesugi Kyouyoshi smiled and said generously that the reason why they were present at this banquet was entirely because these two people were both direct lineages of Feng Lin and were gold-level alchemists.
For the future of the two of them, Uesugi Palace plans to try their luck. If they can be favored and trained by Emperor Shuihan, that will be a real opportunity!
"See the Water Lord!"
As soon as Uesugiya finished speaking, two young men stood up at the same time, holding a glass of wine in their hands, bending down and speaking respectfully.
Uesugi Tianyu was still very excited when he heard the news. After all, the name of Emperor Shuihan has spread throughout the family in the past few days. If he can be favored by him as the ancestor said, then from now on, Lin Mai will The number one young person in the department can only be you!
But Tianyu Uesugi was not in a good mood at the moment. He was the younger brother of Yasugi Uesugi. Although they were not born from the same mother, the relationship between the two was excellent. When he heard what happened to his brother, his heart was broken and he wanted to If it wasn’t what the ancestor said, he wouldn’t be able to come here today!
As a disciple of the head of the family, he is inherently arrogant. He is just a foreign alchemist, but he dares to hurt his brother and wants to accept him as his disciple without even checking whether he is worthy.
Thinking that Yasugi Uesugi was still in Shuihan Prison, his mood suddenly became bad.
Yes, even though he is a man and the two are related by blood, Uesugi Tianyu has a morbid feeling for Uesugi Yasukatsu.
"It seems that you two should be the pillars of the family in the future. You don't have to be so polite. Come on, take a seat first."
Cao Xiaochun was not interested in the two juniors at all. His current purpose was to deceive these old people. He did not pay attention to people whose cultivation was only Star Glory or Diamond.
It's not like Uesugi Katsuyasu who can serve as a qualified Gu refining material.
The two nodded respectfully and sat down slowly. The topic returned to Uesugi Palace. The two wanted to discuss the elixir first, and left things like apprenticeship to the end.
"Two advisors, there is important military information here!"
Before anyone could chat, a girl wearing black armor and a gold mask hurried over holding a black box.
Kneeling on the ground, he held the box up with both hands and said respectfully.
Cao Xiaochun looked at the girl who suddenly came in and raised his eyebrows.
"Military intelligence priority?"
"According to my previous understanding, Dazakura has been recuperating in recent years, but now there is military information. Could it be news about Kyushu?"
However, Uesugi Nagatoyo and Uesugiya's expressions are a little unhappy at the moment. Didn't you see that they are not free now? What military intelligence matters are more important than their breakthrough. This woman is the leader of the intelligence team they appointed. She is usually very shrewd. Why is she so today? Be stupid!
"It seems that today is not the right time."
Cao Xiaochun smiled at this, put a piece of sushi in his mouth, and said casually, but the corner of his eye kept looking at the black box in the girl's hand.
Cao Xiaochun's words made the two of them a little embarrassed, but when they saw Cao Xiaochun looking away, they were confident that they had a certain understanding of his character. They looked at each other and then said with a smile.
"No, no, we can talk about everything while eating, and Leah won't disturb us."
"To be honest, in addition to being the supreme elders of the family, the two of us are also military advisers to the empire's intelligence department. Therefore, these people may be a little ignorant at ordinary times, so we still invite Shui Sanghaihan."
Uesugimiya waved his hand, said with a smile, then turned his head, looked at Momotani Lia and said calmly.
"Put the box down, you go change clothes first."
Hearing Uesugi Nobuyoshi's order, Momotani Riya looked up and looked around. She saw Cao Xiaochun looking at her. Then she thought of something and nodded without thinking too much.
"Ha!"
Not long after, a blonde girl in a silver robe walked out of the inner hall in small steps.
Momotani Riya's dress was completely different from before. Her hair, which was originally tied up, was now casually scattered behind her. Her charming face, which was on par with Nanzō Yunko, made people's eyes bright.
The wide silver robe was draped over her body, and inside was a black gauze cheongsam. A touch of dark gold was faintly visible in the cheongsam. It was also a gorgeous silk with a smooth texture. It was based on dark gold and trimmed with silver silk. Although there was no gorgeous pattern, it felt like it was broken by mutton-fat jade.
From this angle, Cao Xiaochun could clearly see her stunning face and charming expression. Her beautiful eyes were full of water, her red lips were fresh, and her shoulders were very beautiful.
Seeing this, Shangshan Palace slowly winked, and Taogu Liya sighed lightly, slowly knelt down beside Cao Xiaochun, and gently poured wine.
"Let's talk about military affairs later, Shui Sang, let's talk about business first!"
Seeing this, Shangshan Palace smiled with satisfaction and spoke again.
Apparently, he guessed right.
"The guest follows the host's wishes, I can do anything."
Cao Xiaochun smiled, gently embraced the beautiful woman who poured wine, and ran his fingers across her white thighs.
Now he was very curious about the black box, wondering what was inside.
