Naochi Ii and the middle-aged man's "You talk and I listen" posture for a long time. Finally, the middle-aged man finished whispering and straightened his back.

However, Naochi Ii continued to look into the distance with expressionless face, his thoughts were unpredictable.

"…Ajiu." After a moment, Naochi Ii seemed to have nothing happened, and turned his head over and smiled at Ajiu, "I'll set out first."

"Yeah." Ajiu, who had never dissipated his gentle smile on his face, nodded vigorously.

Ii Naoki waved his hand, and the followers standing next to the sedan chair saw this, quickly closed the door of the sedan chair with quick eyes and hands.

The team centered on Ii Naosuke's sedan chair, left Ii's mansion without any haste and headed towards the distant Edo Castle.

...

...

About half an hour later—

Edo Castle, in a gorgeous room—

Naochi Ii sat upright in the west center of this gorgeous room.

He raised his waist very straight, lowered his head slightly, closed his eyes tightly, and looked at rest.

Suddenly, a "slam" sound came, and the sliding door of a room located in front of Ii Naoki was slowly opened.

As soon as he heard the sound of pulling the door, Naochi Ii immediately opened his eyes, then quickly bent his waist, lowered his head, and supported his hands on the tatami, and bowed respectfully.

Bang...bang...bang...bang...bang...bang...bang...

What sounded in front of Ii Naohime... was the soft footsteps that looked like the sound of feathers falling to the ground.

With a sound of sitting down, which was equally gentle, fell—

"Big Boss... raise your head."

After receiving the ethereal female voice, Naochi Ii slowly raised his head.

Sitting in front of him was a very young woman wearing a purple hood and a short ponytail.

"...Your Highness Tianzhangyuan, I feel relieved when I see that you are in a good mood."
