Kusuriya no Hitorigoto

XIX. Lady Riki's decision, the decision to flash the horse

A total of seven were captured. Among them were three maidens of Lady Lishi.

The three maidens served Lady Riki more than they did when they entered the backhouse. And even if they weren't on the spot this time, the rest of the maids are also on guard, just in case.

There's only one lady head I've been following beside Lady Riki.

Soon, Horseflash grabbed his fist.

While she was a senior queen, there was only one trusted servant of Lady Riki.

And it is a rare fact that this is how he was guiding the thief.

The queen was trembling, but watching the chained maids.

"Come on, didn't you end up needing a husband better?

Even so, Libai, who had done nothing without scratches, returned the medicine that Horseflash had just given him.

"Is that the lady's piece? Hey. Looks like they have pain meds too."

The wounds on his self-inflicted hand were wounded with exposure.

Horseflash tries to rub the rest of the medicine at his fingertips, on his cheek wound, and stops.

Earlier, I remembered the hand plush feeling that touched my cheeks, and I felt it disappear.

"What's going on?

"No, it's nothing"

Horseflash slipped the medicine back into his nostalgia as he impersonated his fingertips with it.

And see the captive men.

"What's their purpose?

Horseflashes staring at Li Bai with a sharp gaze.

"Do I have to tell you?

"You can't hide it now."

"So is that."

With that said, the luggage white points to the wagon targeted by the thief.

"I just want to take a look. If you don't speak up, can you come back without doing anything like that?

……

"Do you want this?

I can only nod when told to emphasise it.

In front of the carriage, I saw the youngest girl who seemed to have fallen earlier. It's painful to wrap your hands and feet around your exposure as if they were cut off, but there doesn't seem to be anything else in your life. Keep your head down to the dust and horse flashes.

I wonder what the hell it is.

Peek inside the front of the carriage.

There are even more books in front of me, and I look in the back as I turn.

Something like a cage.

There was something big like putting a beast in it, an animal fur-like rug underneath it.

Even though it's a cage, it's a rug. I don't know where it is. I wonder what kind of beast is there.

Then.

"Oh? Are you going to help me?

I heard a woman.

Somewhat fine, like inviting a craving for asylum.

I saw a bright white thread. That's what's spreading through the cage.

Two light-like reds glow in the dark.

"This place is a little small. I was wondering if you could put me out in the open."

Seeing the sucking light, Horseflash closed the book.

"You know what?"

Horseflash felt unspeakable.

There was a young woman. Locked in a cage like a beast.

If it were a regular horse flash, it would be an angry occasion.

But.

There was just a reason to do that inhumane thing.

That was why Lady Riki went out of her way to leave the palace, the strange placement of escorts and the purpose of the thieves.

"White Daughters."

There was a woman who made a scene in the capital.

"Thank you for your help"

Once again, it was not Lady Riki, but the maid of preaching.

The queen wears a veil on her face and quietly enters the outer palace.

Those who are the flowers of the rear palace do not expose their bare faces to the man outside.

When it came to the out-of-house, the qualitative palace and the servants who welcomed it also looked clean and poor.

In contrast, the protection to consolidate the palace was harsh, and Horseflash found a few martial officers he had seen.

Such as the escort of the queen in such a place may also be regarded as a left-hand transition from around. Yet I didn't see a single dissatisfied face.

Yes, the Queen's escort is provisional, and they are given a greater role.

I see the back of the queen as she grows smaller, and I want to run and hold her back.

When my hand was about to reach out unexpectedly, it weighed heavily on my shoulder.

"You mustn't be sympathetic. Because it's a fallen life."

"Oh, my God."

Horseflash put his hand down, which was about to go up, and pretended to be unfamiliar.

"Mr. Nong is telling me. My arm is impeccable, but it gets a little emotional."

"... Wouldn't I rely so much"

It sprouts an ugly mind whether Mr. Nong will use this man more heavily than Horseflash, who has always served him since he was a child.

"I don't think it's unreliable or anything. Hey. The point is, the right material is the right thing to do, and in this kind of thing, just say that I have a minute for being older."

It's a shattered way of talking, but a man named Li Bai isn't so uncomfortable.

He has a much softer head than the horse flash, which is said to be solid.

"The queen is about to go to the festival, and she doesn't know when she's going home."

"... I guess it's just a festival"

"Yes, I think Niji is a better place."

That's why I brought the white daughters besides the Queen.

When I'm in the capital, I lock my two daughters in the same place because it's troublesome, and I feel angry at the act, even if it's the Lord's life.

"Is it okay for this to happen..."

……

Li Bai remains silent, staring at the horse flashes.

Look, I'm trying to say something.

"What?

"No, yeah, I thought I should."

"Be clear."

Libai roared and exhaled as he gave up looking up at the sky.

"My Lady, I think I made a suggestion about this one."

"... what do you mean ⁉"

Weren't you out of the palace until most of them cooled down because of the suspicion of iniquity?

Libai leads him to the outer wall of the palace to arm himself.

"Well, I don't know, originally, I heard stories about the rear palace air not fitting. I also seemed to know that there were not very good samurai gathering around me, and this time, I was to travel in the form of a festival, so to speak, like I was leaving home."

"Running away..."

This is Lady Riki, who left the house once because she was the queen of the previous emperor.

"The second time I left home, my lord turned a blind eye because I couldn't go out anymore," he said.

I do hear that my lord adored Lady Lishi as a daughter. I guess that's why the story of the moon's fringe with you was up too.

"I hear there was talk of a gift, but maybe this is how it went and it became popular. I don't think you can keep your mouth shut if it's true, but it seems like a lot of people have been here lately."

The noise caused by Lady Lishi's half-sister had prevented Dao's clan from slapping her big mouth.

You don't have to leave Lady Lishi like this. Not to mention if the Queen herself does not want it.

"... I mean, the Queen said she chose her own way out of the house"

"Finally, you know that it will be a disguise to transport the white daughters."

"... why again"

As I listened, Horseflash noticed the answer blurring.

Father's, is it for the house?

There was also the possibility of endangerment. In fact, I was exposed.

Were the samurai betrayed because they scratched to be escorted home?

No, I've been attacked by thieves before.

Suppose the samurai also did the guide.

Perhaps the best way to become Lady Riki was to go outside the rear palace.

I don't know if that's the right answer.

From now on, Lady Riki may not be able to leave this heavy outhouse.

Horseflashes should get heavy. If I noticed, my fingertips stopped to touch the wound on my cheek or not.

"Why are you familiar with the circumstances behind this? Have you heard this from Mr. Nong?

"No, it's near my original department, the Warlord's room."

Li Bai said with a strangely frightened face.

The rumor-loving freak warrior shows up and gets tangled up where he wants to talk rumors with fruit water.

Speaking of which, this extraction of the escort should have belonged to the freak warrior as well.

"In the meantime, this is the end of our work. Shouldn't that be?

"Is it over?"

Horseflash wondered what the queen across the fence was doing now.

Libai laughs bitterly when he sees how it goes.

"If they're prostitutes, pile up the money. Don't imitate the price and pay the best for the value of the opponent. I can do that, hey."

"Let's talk about whores be irrelevant"

"For my husband, a prostitute would be a prostitute, but for me, he's my beloved."

The luggage continues.

"For me, the means to get the woman I like is gold, but for my husband, what is it?

……

"I don't think you've decided who to give it to."

Horseflashes were feeling uncomfortable in a way that would make a breakthrough somewhere.

"Ki, how do you feel about the Lady? More importantly, the Queen is about me."

"Wouldn't it be nice if it wasn't? However, the Queen will live in this outhouse forever."

Li Bai puts his nose on the head.

"The man who did the credit for himself and picked me up, isn't that a good idea already?"

I unintentionally wanted to sift my fist at the luggage white laughing at it to tease me somewhere.

At the same time as I wanted to sift, I wanted to buy even one of the drinks.

My heart is blurring.

If you noticed, Horseflash was standing in the front of the gate.

I can't see Lady Riki's back anymore.

Breathe loudly.

"Hand tufted! Thanks!!

The guards are surprised.

And a familiar martial artist.

Really embarrassing, not horse-flashing behavior.

But I thought I had to say something.

I can't tell Horseflash a disturbing dialogue that fits.

I can't find a word for the kind ladies to rejoice in.

Just be honest, we can only go straight.

Such a clumsy personality.

With his face bright red, Horseflash turns his back.

The work here is done.

It will be okay to wake up in the future in this place where there are trusted escorts.

All you can do to flash a horse is listen to the backcutters and thugs you've caught.

Only to find out what the purpose was and reassure the Queen who lives in this outhouse.

To that end, Horseflash needed to return to the capital as soon as possible.
