Chapter 209: Killing the Rebels
Before arriving in Japan, Hisako Kusai wrote a letter to her father.
After getting ashore, Sisha carried his luggage and walked in front to lead the way.
Who knew that before leaving the dock, I saw more than 20 people standing at the intersection wearing black samurai uniforms, wide belts around their waists, a samurai sword in each hand, and straw sandals on their feet.
The warriors glanced at the three people and finally bowed ninety degrees to the veiled Jiu Cai He Zi. "Welcome the Second Young Lady home!"
Then they automatically retreated to the side of the road and stood in two rows. A middle-aged warrior with a square beard under his nose strode towards Jiu Cai Hezi.
He stopped about ten feet away from the three of them and excitedly called out to Jiucai Hezi, "Hezi!"
Jiucai Hezi immediately rushed over and called out with a choked voice, "Father!"
Kazuo Kusaichuan was also very excited when he saw his little daughter whom he had not seen for a long time.
He raised his hand and patted his daughter's shoulder, his eyes fixed on her veiled face, "Hezi, why are you wearing something like this on your face?"
While asking the question, he had already raised his hand to pull her veil.
"don't want……"
Kusai Hezi was still immersed in the joy of reuniting with her father and was completely unprepared for Kusai Kazuo's actions.
By the time she realized her father was reaching out to take off her veil, it was too late.
The moment the veil was torn off, Hisahaha Hezi's face, which had been burned by the fire, was directly exposed in front of Hisahaha Kazuo.
Hisaikawa Kazuo looked at the scars all over his daughter's face, his pupils trembled fiercely, "Hezi, your face...how did it become like this?"
Jiucai Hezi looked at the shocked expression on his face, opened her mouth, but before she could say anything, tears rolled down from the corners of her eyes.
Bah! Bah!
It hit the back of her hand and also hit Kusaichuan Kazuo's heart.
He held Jiucai Hezi's shoulders with both hands, his heart aching beyond words. "Hezi, what happened? Who made you like this?"
Jiucai Hezi raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, recalling the scenes of his escape from the sea of fire, and a strong hatred was reflected in his eyes.
"It was a woman named Xue Youli! She set me on fire and disfigured me! She almost died in the fire!"
Jiu Caichuan Yifu was furious when he heard this, "Xue Youli? Where is she? I want to throw her into the sea to feed the fish!"
If anyone dares to hurt his precious daughter, he will not let her go no matter where she is!
Jiu Cai Hezi took a deep breath, calmed down, and then replied, "Xue Youli is in the Jiuzhou Palace. She is the Jiuzhou Emperor's woman! Father, your daughter was bullied terribly by her in Jiuzhou. Father must avenge me!"
Jiu Caichuan Yifu turned his head, glanced at Murong Ye, and snorted coldly, "Murong Jun, what did you promise me when you took Hezi away? You said you would take good care of her. Is this how you take care of her?"
The imperial edict that Murong Ye was stripped of his title of prince by Murong Che not only spread throughout the Nine Continents, but also reached the surrounding countries.
Now Murong Ye is wanted nationwide in Jiuzhou, like a stray dog. In addition, his daughter suffered great injustice when she went to Jiuzhou with him and almost lost her life. Naturally, Jiu Caichuan Yifu will not give him a good face.
Murong Ye came to Japan to take advantage of the power of the Iga faction under the control of Hisakagawa Kazuo.
He knew that the Iga clan was a symbol of military strength in Japan, so he had thought of a set of excuses before coming.
At this moment, facing Kusaichuan Yifu's questioning, he took a step back and bowed deeply to Kusaichuan Yifu, "Kusai-kun, I'm sorry, I betrayed your trust and failed to protect Miss Hezi. I apologize to you! No matter how you want to punish me, I have no complaints!"
Jiu Caichuan Yifu glared at him and said coldly, "Do you think I dare not kill you? Now you are just a commoner. It would be easier for me to crush you to death than to crush an ant!"
As he spoke, he drew the samurai sword from his waist and pretended to chop him.
Murong Ye sensed the cold light of the samurai sword, but still maintained the posture of bowing and apologizing.
The Sisha behind him put his hand on the hilt of the sword when Jiu Caichuan Yifu drew his sword, ready to protect his master at any time.
"Father!"
Before Jiucaichuan Yifu raised his sword, Jiucai Hezi rushed to Murong Ye and used his body to block the falling samurai sword.
"It has nothing to do with Murong Sang! It's all the fault of the Emperor of Jiuzhou and his woman Xue Youli! They ruined my face! I didn't want to live with this face, but thanks to Murong Sang who took care of me so well and personally sent me back, I was able to reunite with my father! I live in such pain every day, I beg my father to avenge me! Kill the Emperor of Jiuzhou and Xue Youli!"
As the leader of the Iga clan, Kazuo Kusaichuan has ninjas who are all highly skilled in ninjutsu and well versed in assassination.
In addition to wanting to borrow the power of Japan, Murong Ye also wanted to use the ninjas of the Iga school to deal with Murong Che.
As we all know, ninjutsu is mysterious and can kill people without being seen.
Jiu Caichuan Yifu was no fool. After listening to his daughter's convincing words, he immediately cast his gaze towards Murong Ye behind her, "Mr. Murong, is this Hezi's idea or yours?"
Murong Ye glanced at Jiucai Hezi and replied sincerely, "Hezi's thoughts are my thoughts. Anyone who hurts Hezi will not let them off easily, even if it costs me my life!"
Kusaichuan Yifu sneered, "What's the point of saying nice things? You have no one to turn to, and no money to pay for it. How can you possibly stand up to the ruler of a country?"
Murong Ye could hear the sarcasm in Jiucai Chuanyifu's tone, but he didn't care at all. "Jiucai Jun, my eldest sister is the wife of General Jiang Yuanshan, the Great Cavalry General. Jiang Yuanshan commands an army of 100,000. He is now retreating to the northern border, waiting for me to join him and then we can fight our way back to the capital together."
Hisaikawa Kazuo is also an old fox, and he cannot be fooled by just a few words.
After hearing Murong Ye's words, he snorted, "I've also heard about your palace coup. Last time, you took the enemy by surprise but still failed to win. The Emperor of Jiuzhou is already wary of you. How can you guarantee that you can win?"
"I was also betrayed at that time! This kind of situation will never happen again!"
Murong Ye paused before continuing, "I have spies in Murong Che's harem, and the Nanzhao envoy and two princesses died in Jiuzhou. The King of Nanzhao will certainly attack Jiuzhou. With Jiuzhou under attack from all sides, if your ninjas try to assassinate the Jiuzhou commander or even the Jiuzhou emperor, what do you think our chances of success are?"
It must be said that Cai Chuan Yifu was very moved after hearing Murong Ye's words.
"Japanese ninjas have almost never failed in assassinations. Are you sure you can successfully become the Emperor of Kyushu with the help of ninjas?"
Murong Ye nodded without hesitation. "Of course, I have arranged everything. As long as you can help me persuade the King of Japan to send troops to interfere with the northeastern border of Jiuzhou, I will definitely be able to kill Murong Che by surprise!"
Kucaichuan Yifu pondered for a moment before answering, "Our Japanese king can't help you for no reason. You have to tell me, what benefits will helping you bring to Japan?"
Murong Ye immediately said, "As long as you are willing to persuade the King of Dongying to send troops to Jiuzhou, and then lend me the most powerful ninja to kill Murong Che, when I ascend the throne, I will not only make Hezi the Queen of Jiuzhou, but also give all the cities bordering Dongying to the King of Dongying!"
Japan is a tiny country with a very small land area. The total area of the cities that Murong Ye said he would give to Japan is larger than the entire land area of Japan.
When Hisaikawa Kazuo heard the conditions he offered, he was immediately tempted. "I will convey your intention to the king. As for whether the king is willing to send troops, it is not something I can influence."
When Murong Ye saw that he had loosened his grip, a faint light flashed in his black eyes.
In Japan, who doesn’t know the name of Kazuo Kusaichuan?
The Iga clan's influence spread throughout Japan, and even in the palace where the king of Japan lived, ninjas could move freely.
As long as he opens his mouth, the King of Japan will definitely give him this face.
What's more, the land in Northeast China is fertile and is a big piece of fat meat for Japan. How could the Japanese king not be tempted?
"More!" Before Murong Ye could reply, Jiu Caichuan Yifu spoke again, "I heard that Jiuzhou has a long history of medical skills and countless talented people. After you ascend the throne, you must find a miracle doctor to heal Hezi's face and restore her original beauty!"
Murong Ye glanced at Jiucai Hezi and nodded solemnly, "Jiucai Jun, I swear on my honor that the first thing I will do after ascending the throne is to heal Hezi's facial injuries!"
Jiu Cai Hezi was deeply moved when he heard his solemn promise. "Murong Sang, you are so kind to me. My father and I will definitely support you with all our strength!"
Murong Ye was waiting for these words. He held Jiucai Hezi's hand tightly with both hands and said affectionately, "Hezi, we in Jiuzhou have a saying that goes 'hold your hand and grow old together.' Although we are not husband and wife in reality, in my heart, I have already regarded you as my wife!"
Jiu Cai Hezi likes the customs and culture of Jiuzhou very much. She has been reading various books about Jiuzhou since she was a child, so she naturally knows the meaning of Murong Ye's words.
She held Murong Ye's hand and said word by word, "Murong Sang, let's get married today! I want to be your wife!"
Murong Ye was stunned. He didn't expect that Jiucai Hezi took his casual words seriously.
To be honest, if he didn't have a request for Jiucaichuan Yifu, he would have nightmares at night just by looking at Jiucai Hezi's face covered with burn scars.
But right now, he had no choice at all, and even had to act flattered, "Hezi, I'm penniless right now, are you really willing to marry me at this time?"
Jiucai Hezi looked at him with a firm gaze, "Murong Sang, I believe in you! You will definitely achieve your goal and become the most powerful emperor in Jiuzhou!"
At this point, she turned her head and looked at Jiu Caichuan Yifu, "Father, I want to marry Murong Sang, is that okay?"
Kusaichuan Yifu looked at the horrific scar on his daughter's face, hesitated for a long moment, and finally nodded in agreement. "Okay! Ever since your sister got married, we haven't had any happy events in the Iga clan for a long time. Father will arrange your wedding tonight! You can marry the man you love in a grand ceremony!"
?
Jiuzhou, the imperial palace.
Xue Youli was shocked to learn from the Book of Heaven that Murong Ye and Jiucai Hezi were getting married tonight.
"There's not a single patch of good skin on Jiucai Hezi's face from her eyes down, yet Murong Ye actually agreed to let Jiucai Chuan marry her without blinking an eye. What a man!"
Chu Xinyue was also in Zhaohua Palace. After hearing Xue Youli's words, she sighed on the spot, "Murong Ye is truly worthy of being the hero I created. With his endurance, what can't he succeed in?"
Xue Youli also admired Murong Ye's scheming and tactics. This man even sold himself in order to seize the throne.
This courage is admirable!
She tutted her tongue, "It's a pity he met us, otherwise he would definitely be a ruthless and cruel hero!"
Chu Xinyue thought about what she said about Murong Ye using Japanese ninjas to assassinate Murong Che and the generals of Jiuzhou, and a hint of worry appeared in her eyes. "Japanese ninjutsu is indeed very powerful. Can your man deal with them?"
Xue Youli blinked at Chu Xinyue and said, "I don't know if he has a solution, but I do."
Chu Xinyue moved a stool to sit in front of her, "I'd like to hear more!"
Xue Youli replied, "Actually, compared to our Kyushu martial arts, ninjutsu is nothing more than a base and unethical technique."
