In an instant, Tianzhangyuan's face turned even redder - but the "red" this time was not the same thing as the "red" just now.

She frowned and glared at Tokugawa Iemo fiercely.

His eyes are so sharp... To give a vivid example - it almost feels like a laser capable of cutting steel.

Her red lips moved, as if she wanted to say something, but no word came out.

It wasn't until a while later that she half gave up and half shouted in a low voice:

"I'm your mother! Don't worry about your elders' affairs!"

Having said that, she huffed...or was eager to escape from this place. She rushed off the sedan with an arrow, and then quickly escaped into the corner of the corridor not far away, leaving behind a voice that gradually drifted away:

"I'm tired! I'm going to rest!"

Tokugawa Iemo watched her off silently.

At this time, he had put away his joking expression and his expression turned into one of unspeakable helplessness.

Not long after, he raised his eyes to the sky and sighed:

"Oh...this...this...what should I do..."

…

…

Tokugawa Iemo and Tenjoin arrived in Kyoto in the morning.

As for Hitotsubashi Keihe and Matsudaira Shunaku, it is a little later.

They didn't successfully enter Kyoto until the afternoon.

For these two people, Qingdeng does not need to go out to greet them.

He didn't want to meet these two people either.

Although each other is a political enemy, both parties must always show a certain degree of "friendliness" and "harmony" in public.

If possible, Qingden would like to avoid this boring "performance".

The specific time for Tokugawa Iemo to hold summit talks with the imperial court was determined to be the day after tomorrow...that is, the morning of April 29.

This day was designated by the imperial court.

It is said that they were worried about Tokugawa Iemo and others coming from a long distance, so they specially set aside a day for them to have a good rest and relieve themselves from the fatigue of traveling.

Of course, given Tokugawa Iemo's character, he would not just sit in Nijo Castle and let time pass by in vain.

He immediately made a decision: use this precious day to visit Aoshito's brainchild - the Shinsengumi's settlement!

PS: Let me share with you a joke that represents people’s stereotypes of Kyoto people: the “post-war” people in Kyoto refer to does not refer to World War II, but to the Onin Rebellion (1467) that started the Warring States Period.
