v12 Chapter 22: The crowd is brewing

In addition to the heir of Naokian Ii, Naoki Ii actually has quite a few children. Seven men and eight women, including Chijiro (his granddaughter is the wife of Konoe Bunkyo), Baosaburo, and Shigeko (the last lord of Echigo and Ban Domain).

Some have already died, and some are too young, even one or two years old, to come out to receive condolence guests. Only Naokian Ii, the heir, was the mourner and presided over the funeral.

Chuemon watched as Naobi Ii's head was sewn together with the body, and he sighed infinitely in his heart. In the end, Naobi Jingi actually lost his life because he scolded a few people. What should I say about this kind of thing?

Human character and human destiny may really be tied together.

To say sadness, it must be sadness. But if I wanted to cry, I couldn't cry for a while. There is that kind of infinite sadness, I don't want to cry anymore, it's useless to cry.

In the end, seeing Naobi Ii being cleaned and wiped, put on white clothes, holding a few beads in his hand, and after dropping the coffin, Chuemon just stood beside the coffin, patted the coffin one after another, and sighed several times.

It's a pity for a good life...

There is one thing to say, this person is dead, then there is indeed a lot less grievances. Many people who originally wished for Jingyi Zhibi to die quickly, but now that Jingyi Zhibi really died, they felt a little sympathetic and came forward to pay their respects. Therefore, although the whole city was scolding Jingyi Naobi before his death, there were many people who came when he died.

The whole funeral was basically spread out, and Chuemon only handled the funeral of Hori Toshinori, and it was going smoothly at the moment. Anyway, Hori Toshihi will be mourning tomorrow, just transfer all the staff to Naobi Ii here.

"What!" Chuemon, who was standing in the courtyard, set out his staff, blurted out.

"Xiaguan must go after him with all his strength." Abe Masaaki came over and reported to Chungemon.

He had arranged for guards, but he didn't expect the guards to come to him in the middle of the night to report that there were hundreds of resentful ghosts who came to claim the head of Kurosawa's chances of winning. See, does this thing speak human language? If you have one or two resentful spirits, Abe Zhengwai may believe it.

Wraith was packaged and sent this year?

Just kidding, there are hundreds of resentful spirits. By the time Abe Zhengwai arrived at Nihonbashi in the early morning, all three heads had been lost.

According to the rules, Nihonbashi is closed at night, so the person who steals the head is unlikely to run north all night, and he can't run if he wants to. Now Abe Zhenggai has launched the entire south of Edo, the eyes of the Ming, the town square, the same heart and the power, and a comprehensive investigation. If you can't catch someone who can steal the head of Kurosawa's odds, don't do it.

"Did you know that Kamiya is now furious with thunder. He has to summon Ai Mi (Naoken Ii) soon, how can we do this!"

Originally, I thought that Abe was an old bureaucrat, and he had been friends with us for many years. When his father Abe was hiding, Zhongyouemon worked with his father. I always think about the origins of family learning after the deceased, and just follow the Edo Kita Town, can I still do a bad job? Unexpectedly, it still collapsed.

If Naokian Ii knew that the head of the assassin who killed his father had been taken away, he would definitely be angry and scolded. If this has been said with the Tokugawa family, it is not impossible for the Tokugawa family to express their anger at Abe Zhengwai.

"I also ask Your Highness to give him two or three days, so that we can talk about it." Abe Zhengwai also knew that he was still negligent.

Dozens of people should have been sent to stay here last night. In such a tense season, it is impossible to be too careful. It's just that most of the people in Edo Town were dispatched to Hori's and Ii's houses to help with funerals, and they couldn't turn around for a while. In addition, he felt that it was almost enough to send three people, at most one or two people who did not know whether to live or die would dare to steal.

Who would have thought dozens or hundreds of them would come.

"Oh, I understand, you quickly send someone to look for it, it will be limited to you for two days. You don't need to worry about this side. Later, Marquis Akashi will deal with the Hori family." Chuemon looked back. Naokian Ii, who was kneeling in front of the spirit, asked Abe Zhengkai to rush to do this.

On the Hori family's side, Matsudaira Qixuan will help send it tomorrow. Here at Ii's house, Zhongemon is temporarily holding on to see if I can stabilize Naokian Ii first. Anyway, the Tokugawa family may not be able to get up today and be able to summon Naokian Ii. After a day or two, there should be no problem.

As if receiving amnesty, Abe trotted all the way outside, and continued to dispatch personnel to search the towns of Edo to find out whether there were any suspicious elements in each town. It is better to kill by mistake, not to let it go. Be sure to find the head of Kurosawa's chances of winning.

Chuemon directly told Naokian Ii about this matter. After all, even if we don't talk about it, the people of the Ii family are not blind, and the news will spread soon. Instead of covering up, it is better to tell him honestly. I've been trying hard to find it here, and I'll be able to find it soon, don't worry.

If the Tokugawa family decides to summon you, can you hold back first?

Naokian Ii, who heard the news, was shocked at first, and then his face became ugly. For an eleven-year-old child, if you expect him to be happy and angry, it is too difficult for him.

But since Chuyouemon personally made peace, he is also a son of an aristocratic family. Com then slowly bowed his head and agreed.

Meanwhile, Edo-cho was ordered to execute the three other assassins captured. Kill one a day to warn the restless people in the world.

They were not killed because there was anything wrong with their revenge, but because they challenged the authority of the shogunate and attacked the prime minister who assassinated the shogunate.

Needless to say, when the people were pushed out from the Edo Kita-cho, the people from the half of the city came to watch. There are still many people crying, just saying that this is a righteous person who has been tortured, and the way of heaven is unfair.

The crowd escorted the assassin all the way to the execution ground. The scene was definitely much better than when Ah Q was killed. At least no one called what to sing a few words, or shouted that eighteen years later he was a hero again.

When the people were tied to the cross and the wooden cross, the crowd became commotion, and they were all shouting for the righteous in their hearts. Because the boss Abe is very anxious now and ordered severe punishment, the officials who maintained the scene raised their sticks and ten hands, and fought against the rioting crowd everywhere.

The crowd was naturally more turbulent, and the cries, scoldings and fights were endless. In the end, although they were reluctantly dispersed and suppressed, the execution was carried out normally. But many emotions are only temporarily suppressed, and whether they can be dissipated in the end is a big problem.

It's brewing, who knows when it will explode.
