One of the seven wonders of the Qingliang Temple is the legend about "Nantian near the left".
It's like, "Whoever touches that tree, it hurts his stomach"...
I, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, included no one in the line who was aiming for Edo knew that as a person.
………
……
Celebration 11 (1606) March 22 -
After lunch, we Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who left Omi Kuniku Sawayama, entered the neighboring Mino Kuniku within that day.
And the Castle of Ghana in that Minoo country was my destination today, but it attacked me on the road...
"Ouch... my stomach hurts intensely..."
I can see myself turning blue as my face looks at the dull pain that pushes my belly all the way.
Too much pain makes me sweat weird all over my body, even tight across my horse.
It was Akashi Akashi who noticed my anomaly as soon as possible.
"Dear Hideyoshi... are you okay...?
"No, not at all okay..."
When I gave the instant answer, All Deng squeezed his expression and calmly spoke to the lead role, Shigezo Itakura.
"Itakura Hall. I'm sorry, but Hideyoshi is not doing so well, so I'd like you to take me somewhere to rest."
"That's important. Yes, I did. Find a teahouse or something to rest in nearby."
When Heavy Sect calmly dealt with it, he gave the lead to his brother, Chongchang Itakura, and flew his horse to the road ahead.
- I can trust people who can calmly deal with these unforeseen situations...
And if you haven't distracted yourself from what doesn't matter, you're going to go crazy.
And after receiving the suggestion of Heavy Sect that the teahouse at the foot of Mount Ibuki might be able to take a break, all the boards sent instructions to everyone in my place, and they were supposed to take a break there.
………
……
"Hideyoshi, please!! Are you ok!?
It was me who arrived at the desired teahouse and was put to sleep in a quiet room in the back, but while I also thought this would help me rest for a while, a golden princess jumped into the room.
When that kinky voice stirred something in my belly, I accidentally roared, "Ugh..."
Seeing how I am like that, when Chihime is increasingly disturbed and tears fill her eyes...
"Excellence. Well! Hold on to me!! Hideous. Well!!
How dare Chihime grab my shoulder and shake it so desperately.
That culminated in a feeling of illness, as he was shaking his head hard, while still seasick.
- Oh... am I going to die here...
I had a distant look at her, and she left me alone.
… and it was then.
"Thousand princesses! Stop!! If you are so shaken up, you will feel unnecessarily bad about Hideyoshi!!
And I heard exactly what could be called a savior to me.
The voice was uttered by the samurai of Chihime, Aoyagi, the niece of Sir Ozo.
She was usually a quiet girl, but seeing how Chihime and I were doing, she praised Chihime out loud like she couldn't possibly think of from her regular girlfriend.
Chihime releases her hand from my shoulder to that voice. On the other hand, I felt distracted, and as I lay on my back, I stared at the ceiling with half my eyes open.
A thousand princesses staring at me like that asks in a voice that's about to disappear.
"Aoyagi... but what should I do... Thousand is not worried about Hideyoshi..."
"Thousand princesses. Find a doctor first. Now, Lord Kofi and the others are looking for a famous doctor."
"Then we will look for a thousand together!!
That's what I say. No, Chihime left the room at first sight.
- What is it... this chest noise...
Honestly I only have some bad feeling about why...
But now I don't want to think about anything, and I can't even afford to think about it.
I kept my eyes open without resisting fading consciousness...
………
……
"He's a good doctor around here? You've never heard of it..."
It was the master of the teahouse who answered so with a frown.
"Well... if it's still not a big city, aren't there any good doctors..."
It was Princess Kofi who leaked so.
Next to it is a thousand princesses with a worried face and an inner daughter who somehow seems somewhere fun. The three of them started looking for a doctor to see Hideyoshi together.
On the side of Hideyoshi, Aoyagi and Akashi Akashi Akashi are in attendance. Apparently, All Deng is making an excellent attempt at the simple treatment he wore in the West.
"Um... it's a corner, so why don't you go outside the teahouse for a little while and ask?
And my inner daughter asks terribly.
"Hmm... sounds like nothing more than doing that"
When Princess Kofi put her arms around her and agreed with the opinion, she frowned and asked the question that her inner daughter's face somehow became bright at that moment.
"Why does your Lord seem so happy?
"No! I can't be happier! When Hideyoshi is in trouble!
No way is my chest rattling about going outside and taking a walk in a land I don't know!
"Uhm... is that crazy...? For some reason, it just seems like the Lord is enjoying..."
Thousand princesses followed Princess Kofi's back as she slipped her neck.
………
……
The place where the teahouse was was was like a small village, and the people had gone between a few houses.
Still, it is a small village that is not comparable to Kyou, Sakami, etc.
It was less than a quarter of an hour (about half an hour) before Princess Kofi and the others, who had left the teahouse, had finished their journey around the village.
"That's kind of out of expectation..."
Yes, my inner daughter sighed and said it definitely meant "the village was too small to be a fun place at all".
However,
"Ha... not at all... there's no famous doctor anywhere..."
And, Chihime sighed loudly as well, without guessing and measuring the mood of her inner daughter.
Even while doing this, Hideyoshi may suffer from unbearable abdominal pain.
Besides, there is still time for the sun to tilt, but eating any more stops here will make it harder to reach the destination, Castle of Ghana, by sunset.
Even Princess Kofi, who rarely moves no matter what happens, was just as generous in this situation, nothing more than making that face harder.
It was then...
One strange old woman called out to them.
"What? Are you looking for a doctor?
To what I was suddenly talked about, the three of us looking at each other.
And Princess Kofi answered the old woman on her behalf.
"Yes, I do... but there doesn't seem to be any doctor-like doctors in this village..."
Then the old woman laughed and told me one thing.
"Kakaka! Then you are the lucky ones!
To an old woman who laughs so, the three look suspicious.
"If, Lord, are you even a doctor?
"No, the doctor is not in this village. If you're looking for a doctor, you can't find him in Ghana."
"So why are the crooks lucky?
"Kakaka! That's because today is the day!
"That day?
And as usual, the old woman pointed and said to the main hall of the nearby temple against the three whose circumstances could not be swallowed and who were frowning.
"It's 'Day of Application'! A bruiser comes down from the mountain and handles herbs in that temple!
………
……
"No! Never!! Only a stomach called bruises should never be allowed to meet Hideyoshi!!
Since the time she heard the name "bruised", Chihime had diligently refused to go to the temple to ask her for help, spreading her hands and feet.
"But O Thousand... isn't there anything else better than relying on someone named Bruised already?
"No!! Thousands will not forgive!!
"How can you be so compelling...?
When Princess Kofi asks the question without being so convinced of the condition of the thousand princesses, the thousand princesses seem very unspeakable.
"That's... not Hideyoshi and Bruiser... back then..."
My inner daughter laughs niggardly when she sees a thousand princesses making her face bright red like that.
Apparently, she found out something.
"Ha 'am... if Hideyoshi and his stomach called Bruises have we met face to face somewhere?
"Shit... I don't know! or something like that, let it be, a thousand has never even heard of it!
The inner daughter, who appeared to have an increasingly pleasant look at the thousand princesses, who clearly could not hide the upset in the wording, penetrated further and said away.
"Uh... is that so? Wasn't Hideyoshi and the bruiser" in love "after all? I thought so."
"Gee ho! Gee ho!! Hey, what are you saying all of a sudden!! Oh, no, that's not true!!
My inner daughter was convinced by this sudden rush of smoke rising from her feet.
- This is going to be interesting!
and…
And she had sometime advanced with a serious look at Princess Kofi, who had a troubled look on her face.
"Master Kofi!! This is nothing more than relying on a bruiser!!
Visit Hideyoshi directly!!
If anything, leave us alone in your room!
Sa!! Hideyoshi must be suffering while doing this!! Let's go!!
"Ah... oh. Shall we go then?"
Princess Kofi nodded unexpectedly to her sword screen like that.
Then she said gladly, pushing Princess Kofi's back.
"Bye! Let's go! Come on!"
... and there...
"I won't!! Thousand won't let you through here!!
Keep looking for a doctor!!
And a thousand princesses stood before them, and spread their hands in full.
To the unusual appearance of a thousand princesses,
"What's the matter with you... O Thousand... you've been acting weird since earlier?
If you don't want me to meet Lord Hideyoshi with a man named Bruiser, tell me exactly why. "
And Princess Kofi finally complained bitterly.
Chihime shivers out as she sifts, as she was cornered by Princess Kofi's gaze.
And...
His face turned bright red and his eyes filled with tears.
"Because Hideyoshi will be taken from the stomach called Bruises!!!
and…
To that very loud voice, Princess Kofi and her inner daughter grazed away, and all the villagers simultaneously turned their eyes round and looked at the thousand princesses.
While awkward silence persisted, the rough nose of a thousand princesses and some extended chickens "COCKAY!! The only thing that's stuck around is the chirping.
That was the time.
"Bruises don't take anything from Hideyoshi."
And the clear girl's voice echoed around.
Now everyone's gaze gathered toward the bearer of the voice.
Glossy dark hair stretched to the shoulders, tight, healthy-looking skin, crisp, adorable eyes, a slightly higher nose, and tighter lips. And a skinny body dressed in plain clothes, but beautiful long, smooth legs.
An obviously beautiful girl of the same age as Hideyoshi stood there in a position of solitude.
"Is your lord bruised?
and Princess Kofi asked, the girl nodded cocklessly and replied with a clear voice.
"Exactly. Are you with Hideyoshi?
"Oh, I don't know. Wawa is Kofi Narita.
And here is the main room of Lord Hideyoshi Toyotomi, Lord Thousand Toyotomi. "
Yes, when Princess Kofi introduced herself and Princess Thousand, the bruises lowered her head with a peck. And when I looked up, I stared at Chihime.
"You must be a thousand..."
"Oh, yeah, yeah! What's wrong with that!?
to the appearance of a thousand princesses who are likely to bite,
"Fair enough, Princess Thousand. Calm down, calm down."
And my inner daughter seems to mock her with heartfelt pleasure.
And the bruise looked closely at Chihime from head to toe, and she said in a gentle voice, staring into Chihime's eyes at the end.
"You look great on Hideyoshi, aren't you a cute guy?
Dear Hideyoshi, I'm glad. Become such a man and wife. "
To that unexpected compliment, Chihime's vigilance blushed in a different way as she flew across the sky.
"Oh, yeah? Is that what you're gonna think?
"Oh, I really do. Thousands of princesses see their hearts as gentle.
Hideyoshi is a happy man. "
"As it were, well... that's for sure.
Bruises... isn't it a pretty stomach? "
"Ha! Please don't do this. No! The bruises are in the countryside people's exit as you can see.
I don't want to be praised by someone like Chihime. "
The bruised face, laughing so, gleams in the spring sun.
To how she looks like that,
- Isn't he quite the owner of the volume...
- That's pretty good! It's going to be more and more interesting!
- Pretty good for you! I lost my guard...
And he had the impression of the Three Kinds.
While the three of them were thinking about it, the bruises offered one little wrap in front of a thousand princesses.
Thousand princesses who round their eyes and receive it.
"What's this?
"I fried the roots of the shards (the current okera thing) dry. Ah.
Let Hideyoshi drink this by dissolving it in hot water. "
"Shards?
"I just heard from the old lady there that Hideyoshi is hurting her stomach.
Because these pills work well. "
When he said that, the bruises looked back and tried to return to the temple. My inner daughter hurries to speak to the way it is.
"Please wait! Aren't you going to see Hideyoshi?
Bruises only pointed his face at the three of them.
"There are still plenty of people in this village waiting for bruised herbs.
I have to go to another village tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I'm going to another village.
All these people are waiting for bruised herbs.
If you went to Hideyoshi without helping them, Hideyoshi must be scolding you for bruising.
If Hideyoshi is working hard for the bruises and the people, we have to help him with the bruises. "
To put it that far, the bruises went on with gentle eyes with their hands together so that they could chest something loving from the bottom of their hearts.
"Because that means returning the favor I received from Hideyoshi."
That's what she said. She turned to the temple.
Princess Kofi and her inner daughter saw such bruises and each seemed to have something on their mind.
- It's a strong stomach... I didn't know someone like that was in here...
- You admire Lord Hideyoshi more than your heart...
Then…
Before her like that...
A thousand princesses jumped out to roll.
A bruise with a suddenly surprising look on his face.
"Duh, what's up?
In response to her asking, Chihime tied her mouth to a single letter...
- Gahhh!
And he bowed deeply.
"Thank you! Thousands will always repay you for this grace!
Thanking her with such a loud and clear voice, Chihime raised her face.
That face...
A full smile.
Bruises, when he saw the face and laughed nicely, remembered something and gave the other wrap to the thousand princesses.
"This... when Hideyoshi is well, eat with Thousand."
"Is this...?
"Daisy burdock scent. Come on."
"Burdock?"
"Because the incision resembles a chrysanthemum blossom, it's called chrysanthemum burdock. Because it must be delicious."
"Yeah! Thanks!
"Well, then, master."
She left behind the scene with a refreshing spring breezy scent around her.
………
……
"It's weird... there's nothing more!
I, Hideyoshi Toyotomi, took the medicine they brought after Chihime and the others came back to one of the tea houses. Oh, my God, I was so impressed that my abdominal pain subsided in just a few moments, I woke up unexpectedly and moved my body blindly.
"Oh! Nothing! That's a great effect!
Thousand princesses who brightened Paa and her face to the way I look like that,
"Excellence. Well!! Good!! Thousands are delighted!
And I'm as happy as I am about myself.
Out of the futon, I was kind to the head of a thousand princesses whose eyes were shining.
"Thank you, a thousand!
By the way, how famous are the doctors who divide such effective medicines?
I want to invite you to school!
Is it something you can't look at me for once?
Is my father Hideyoshi Tai the one who wants to carry me to his place if he has good people? I asked to see the doctor who prescribed the medicine.
But to my words, a thousand princesses and an inner daughter are looking at each other somewhere awkward.
In the meantime, Princess Kofi told me to tell you.
"He works for the villagers here today.
He left the villagers alone and said that if he rushed to Hideyoshi, that was the only way to scold Hideyoshi, so he insisted on seeing Hideyoshi. "
"Well... too bad..."
I felt kind of physically turned down and my heart sinked and my face darkened and I nagged, and before me like that, Chihime opened a different package and offered it.
That looks like a pickle of salted stems. It has a good aroma that inspires the unique appetite of pickles.
"What is this? Is that what they were selling in the village?
"No, this is in Daisy Burdock, which I received from the person who gave me the medicine!
If Hideyoshi gets better, he'll eat with me. "
"Hmm, was it! Then I guess I'll have one."
And I reached for the pickle and let it go.
- Shari!
For a pleasant toothpick, the taste of salt soaked well spreads across the mouth.
I didn't think it would taste like that, and I raised my voice out loud.
"It's good! It's good!! You can all try one! It's good!"
- Shari!
- Shari!
Everyone on the spot looks delicious on each side when they mouth a daisy burdock.
As I chewed it well and tasted it, I felt the hearts of the people who made this pickle creep in.
"Gentle... but the core must have been made by someone strong enough..."
When I accidentally leaked out of my mouth, wonder and a heartbeat of my chest sounded and I could see my face becoming red.
Thousand princesses, who saw how it was, somehow have something on their faces that's not funny.
"What's the matter with you? Thousands?"
"Nothing!
Even so, she turned to Puy softly.
"But... it's called medicine, it's called this pickle, and I'm worried about him more and more...
I'd like to keep it on my side, if I could.
If you need anything, you can help me right away... "
Thousand princesses who were pointing that way at my words stuffed me with an amazing sword screen.
"No!! Hideyoshi! There are a thousand of them, so no!!
Besides, you are so busy, it is impossible to be on Hideyoshi's side all the time!!
"Well... well... well, if that's what Thousand says..."
After being pushed by her sword curtain so much, I answered that unexpectedly without knowing why.
And...
"Okay! Then we don't have time for this anymore! Let's just say we leave quickly!
Sorry for your concern, everyone!! Come on, let's do another good job for Ghana!!
And when I spoke to everyone on the spot, they all tried to renew their feelings and get to grips with the exit.
But...
A man called a ripple came into the room a little while ago on a calming occasion.
It's...
It was Shigechan Itakura, the second son of Katsushi Itakura...
"Yay! Isn't that daisy burdock! Which one...
Yeah! It's good!! It's good!!
If you've made this, your heart must be beautiful!
No, it's not just the heart, I'm sure it's a beautiful stomach to look at!
Sounds delicate and gentle to me! Ha ha!
As usual, he talks a lot to the pepper, and he seems to have even said something unnecessary, and I can see Thousand Princess's face being distorted as she looks at it.
But he kept talking to me without even paying attention to such a thousand princesses.
"Lord Hideyoshi! Did you know that? Actually, this' daisy burdock 'has a name for burdock, but it's actually not made from burdock!
"Ugh... do you... so from what...?
And the moment I heard that answer...
Each of my four faces, Chihime, Kofi, and my inner daughter, turned to surprise.
What is the answer…
"Tsubaki...! It's in Tsubaki!!
It was...
………
……
That evening...
In a small mansion on the side of a large herbal field in Mount Ibuki, he looked round and inquired, seeing how the old man was the girl who had returned from the village at his feet.
"What's up? Bruises? Doesn't he look happy today?
"Oh yeah...? Nothing's changed. I'm going to take care of the evening."
The girl who answered that is dyed red on her cheeks.
And as she hid her face, the girl who had moved from the living room where they were to the kitchen stared out the window at the stars shining in the evening and whined in a small voice so that the old man could not hear her.
"Dear Hideyoshi... I would like to see you someday... then..."
A cool spring breeze enters the kitchen through the window.
She was the girl who bathed it in her face, but the enthusiasm she held in her chest never cooled.
