Housekeeper of the Hundred Blossom Palace

Story 171, what's the problem?

Rain Sister [Yumei] opens her mouth as she remembers the story of Xu.

"Xu [Shu] only confirmed the bearded hair, right?"

That being said, isn't it faint as evidence that your lover is dead? "

Of course, since the lover really died, there is a possibility that it was delivered from the person's lifetime wishes, but it is also quite likely that it was not.

After all, unlike the previous life, we can't do DNA appraisal of the beard hair.

In his previous life, he had heard from time to time that the remains of people who had died in the war belonged to someone else.

In the past, we had no choice but to believe what was delivered, but it was the first time that DNA appraisal technology was established and it was the truth.

"How did that beard arrive to Xu-san?"

Rain's sister asked, twisting her neck.

Whether it was delivered to the handkerchiefs or by fellow soldiers who fought with them, the importance of the bearded hair also changes.

Tachibin [Libin] answered this question.

"As you can imagine from the story, if the lover and I traveled alone, I don't think that we knew each other at the border."

Besides, I won't be able to meet anybody outside of the Palace until I get permission to go out, so it would be a good way to deliver the letter. "

According to Tachibin's plausible guess, Rain's sister also agrees that "it is so after all".

"The news of death from someone you don't know is becoming more and more unreliable, isn't it?"

Rain's sister said with a frown, but Tachibin also nodded thoughtfully.

"Surely, there is a problem."

If it was delivered by someone you know well enough to trust, then it doesn't matter what your hair is. ”

In the capital and large townships, government offices keep records of people who have died, but in the countryside, they do not keep such records.

It's just spreading the word, "Who seems to have died?"

This was true even on the border where Rain's sister grew up, so the treatment of the dead would be more ambiguous in a dangerous area like the border.

According to Tachibin, mistakes sometimes occur in such fussy death reports.

When a person dies, it's convenient for me. When I have an errand and I travel far away, I give them my last hair and make them dead.

You just have to cut the inside of your hair.

The dead came back and said, "I am alive!"But it was a later festival.

How certain is it that the news of death from a self-proclaimed friend who has never met will ever come to light if the bureau scores and admits to death?

--Why did you believe me, Xu-san?!

Or was it too hard to wait for decades?

Tachibin continues to talk to Rain's sister, who is feeling indescribable.

"Considering the case of fabricating a death, it is said that some people would be grateful if Xu's lover would die.

So for what reason? The question arises.

I can't think of any circumstances around Xu that would require me to do so at the moment. "

According to Tachibin's words, Yu-san thinks "Humuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

At the time of Xu's entry into the Hundred Flowers Palace, the villain merchant he talked about could no longer reach out, so it would be unnecessary for him to have a lover now.

Even if you are afraid of being sued for wrongdoing by your lover, this is a good way to put it, but it can be enough to die in a border dispute.

And Xu was always thinking about that possibility, so she accepted the story that she had received her lover's last hair and died.

So, who delivered the beard, and for what?

"I wonder if the reason for your lover's death was not on Xu's side, but on the side of the border where you went to earn money?"

"... sometimes you're sharp."

Even though Tachibin did so with the twisted thought, Rain's sister mumbled back.

"Sometimes what is that? My head is always on fire!"

Especially today's dedication prediction can only be guessed by smelling the smell! "

Tachibin plays her forehead with her fingers as Rain's sister stretches her chest out and boasts.

“It's not that you're being frustrated, it's that you're being overwhelmed.”

Tachibin said that it was rare, and Rain's sister thought to herself, "That might be the case."
