"good."
Their eyes met, and smiles appeared on their lips.
If you want to confront the Imperial Palace official, you can just bring the person here directly; why make them go over there?
They were also curious about what tricks Deyi Kangren was up to.
Since that's the case, let's play along with Deyi Kangren.
In the side courtyard, Izumi Masako and Ueno Chinatsu were playing with a kitten.
A few days ago, a calico stray cat suddenly appeared in the yard.
Calico cats are considered auspicious in Japan, and Masako Izumi took a great liking to the kitten, saving some of her already meager food to feed it.
With this little cat around, Masako Izumi's days are no longer boring.
Masako Izumi has loved cats since she was a child, and she kept several cats before she got married.
However, when she got married, because Deyi Kangren didn't like small animals, she had to leave the kittens at her parents' home.
Small animals like cats and dogs are not allowed in the shogunate. Perhaps because the side courtyard is too remote and few people usually come here, this little cat took advantage of the situation.
Masako Izumi sat on a cushion on the steps, placed the kitten on her lap, and gently stroked its back.
The kitten closed its eyes comfortably and purred softly.
Chinatsu Ueno watched Odai petting the kitten with a faint smile on her face.
She hadn't seen Odaidokoro so relaxed in a long time.
Although they had been confined to a secluded courtyard and did not know how the general would deal with them, life had to go on.
If things could continue like this, that would be great.
Suddenly, the side courtyard door was kicked open with a loud noise, startling the kitten on the Otaisho's lap.
The kitten suddenly leaped off the lap of the palace maid and sprang into the house, disappearing from sight.
Looking up at the gate, Midaisho saw Tokuyoshi Yasuhito storming in with his men, looking furious.
Is this a purge of her?
Midai turned and looked into the room, but couldn't see the kitten. It must have been frightened and was hiding in some corner.
That's good, otherwise the kitten wouldn't survive if Tokugi Yasuhito saw it.
Odai rose and walked toward Tokuyoshi Yasuhito to bow, saying, "This humble servant greets the General."
Yasuhito Tokugi had been holding back his anger, and now that he saw Odai-sho, remembering that this woman had poisoned his son, he could no longer hold back and kicked Izumi Masako in the chest.
"You bitch!"
Caught completely off guard, Izumi Masako was kicked and sent flying, crashing to the ground with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.
"Midai-sho!" Ueno Chinatsu's expression changed drastically. She rushed forward to help Izumi Masako up, tears streaming down her face.
Chinatsu Ueno dared not look up at Yasuhito Tokuyoshi, afraid she would lose control of the anger in her eyes.
Although she was born into a noble family, in reality she was nothing more than a servant in the shogunate.
She didn't want her rudeness to cause unnecessary trouble for the Imperial Palace.
After kicking Izumi Masako, Tokugi Yasuhito ignored her and went straight into the house, where he sat in the main seat.
When Su Ruojin passed by Izumi Masako, she glanced at her indifferently, said nothing, and went into the house with Xiao Yanchu.
Two servants came over, dragged the Imperial Palace Lady up, and pulled her into the room.
"You said you gave the Princess Consort of Great Chu two snake-snout hooks, is that true?" Deyi Kangren asked directly.
Upon hearing this, Odaisho raised his head to look at Tokuyoshi Yasuhito.
The moment has finally arrived.
