Lady Guuji: Ei, Do You Dare Look Bai Ye in the Eye and Say You Haven't Changed?

Fortunately, this is the Tenshukaku.

It would be easy for Shadow to get some Mora from the Otsukemono.

The three people prepared to leave the Tenshukaku.

However, next to the Tenshukaku, Kage and Bai Ye overheard a group of people arguing.

"Kujou Sara, why are you stopping us from going to the Shogun to appeal?"

"Kujou Clan Ieyasu may have made mistakes, but he has also contributed a lot to Inazuma's safety! To put it another way, even if he has problems, our Kujou Clan and Takatsukasa Clan have contributed to the Shogun for generations. Shouldn't we at least remember his hard work if not his merits?"

"Kujou Sara the Shogun, please let us see the Shogun. He'll remember our family's contributions and spare our lives."

"Yes, if our ancestors could see this, they wouldn't want our heritage to be cut off!"

"These reasons are not reasons for you people to bother the Shogun."

Bai Ye heard it clearly; it was Kujou Sara's voice.

Hearing Kujou Sara say that, the people on the other side seemed to get anxious.

"Kujou Sara, this time the entire Kujou Clan has suffered varying degrees of punishment, but you alone have shown no remorse. Is this something you did in exchange for slandering our Kujou Clan and Takatsukasa Clan to the Shogun?"

"Exactly, I think adopted children are just not meant to be raised properly."

Upon hearing this, a chill appeared between Ying's brows.

Lady Guuji understood the general idea and began to roll up his sleeves.

As for the Bai Ye

At that moment, he charged straight at them.

With a flick of his wrist, a crossbow bolt appeared from his sleeve and was fired at the samurai who were talking nonsense.

Swish swish swish——

Several arrows were fired, all of them piercing the calves of these people.

He then walked over, blocking Kujou Sara, and said to the group with a mocking look in his eyes:

"What have you done? Embezzled or oppressed the common people? There are few people in Inazuma who don't know what your Kujou Clan has done."

They still wanted to argue.

Just then they saw Shadow approaching.

The Shogun has arrived!

Upon seeing the shadow approaching, these people immediately fell silent.

However, a few people still had a hint of resentment in their eyes.

It seemed that he was still thinking about the merits of his ancestors.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Bai Ye thought to himself, "If it were the day before, I really wouldn't have been able to persuade you. But today..."

"The Shogun, I would like to request your permission for these people to visit Grand Narukami Shrine."

You claim to have made contributions? Well then, I'll just bring your ancestors over and have them teach you a lesson.

"Can."

If it were up to Ying's idea that these people were all like this, then they should all be killed. However, since Bai Ye wanted their ancestors to teach them, Ying did not object.

Only then did Bai Ye look at Kujou Sara.

At this moment Kujou Sara had her head down, looking somewhat dejected.

Bai Ye could understand her feelings.

Despite these accusations that Kujou Sara betrayed the Kujou Clan, Kujou Sara still harbors deep feelings for the Kujou Clan.

She has given so much to the Kujou Clan, but Kujou Clan look at her like this. How can she not be sad?

"Kujo, these guys' words don't mean anything. These Kujou Clan and Takatsukasa Clan have long known they're just coasting on their ancestors' achievements, living off their past glory. Don't take their words seriously," Bai Ye said to Kujou Sara.

"Yes, I know."

Kujou Sara was naturally very happy about Bai Ye's arrival and her protective attitude towards her upon meeting her.

Having someone like that protect you during your most difficult time is truly heartwarming. Even Kujou Sara, who is always tasked with protecting others, secretly longs for someone to protect her.

At the most difficult time, Bai Ye appeared.

Kujou Sara was very grateful.

However, Kujou Sara only echoed his advice.

It looks too cliché.

However, she had no idea that Bai Ye possessed the ability to make the mundane extraordinary.

Bai Ye blinked and said to Kujou Sara, "You'll understand what I'm saying once you take them to Grand Narukami Shrine. Trust me, you won't overthink it after you see it."

"I understand."

Kujou Sara sensed that Bai Ye was implying something, and remembering the Shogun's nod earlier, she immediately decided to take these people to Grand Narukami Shrine.

However, all of these people were shot down by Bai Ye and fell to the ground.

Seeing Kujou Sara's predicament, Kage said to her, "Go and bring a few Otsukemono warriors to help you take these people to Grand Narukami Shrine."

"Thank you, the Shogun."

Kujou Sara expressed her gratitude to the shadow.

"This is just a small celebration."

Kujou Sara bowed to the shadow again, then went to find Otsukemono.

However, just as she was about to leave, Kujou Sara saw Kitsune-no-miya behind Lady Guuji.

She felt a little strange.

Why does this look so familiar?

I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before.

Despite her confusion, Kujou Sara still prioritized her own feelings.

Seeing Kujou Sara leave, Lady Guuji, Bai Ye, and Kage also headed towards Inazuma's street.

Lady Guuji stroked its chin and said to Shadow, "I never expected that the last orphan of the Tengu clan would be adopted by the Kujou Clan. Also, I used to think that although there were a few problematic people in the Kujou Clan and Takatsukasa Clan, there were still quite a few useful people. Now it seems that they are almost completely rotten."

Bai Ye then spoke:

"That's normal. If someone told you from birth that you were destined to become a powerful samurai lord, you definitely wouldn't bother to work hard."

"Yes." Lady Guuji nods. "But thankfully we're back. The Kujou Clan and Takatsukasa Clan are probably beyond saving this generation. But these old comrades won't let the next generation go astray in their education."

As Ying listened, she always felt that Lady Guuji and Bai Ye were implying something.

She did not deny this.

"This was indeed my oversight. I will definitely need to strengthen the discernment of some officials in the future. Lady Guuji, you will be in charge of the Tenryou Commission for the time being."

"Good."

Lady Guuji accepted the appointment.

The three continued walking towards the street.

While Inazuma's streets are far less bustling than Liyue's, there are still quite a few shops along the street leading down from the Tenshukaku.

It was already evening, but there were still quite a few people hawking their wares at the street vendors' stalls. Ying realized then that it had been a long time since she had gone shopping like this.

The last time I was wandering around the streets like this, it was probably because Lady Guuji dragged me out.

It seems she was worried about losing the match with Chiyo, and probably wanted to use her as an excuse to escape.

That fox is truly cunning.

That was five hundred years ago.

The scene back then was probably the same as it is now.

Shadow felt quite pleased with himself for remaining eternal. The scene that Lady Guuji saw back then can still be seen now.

That time was wonderful; I didn't have to think about so many things, and I could just focus on how to improve my martial arts skills each day. Even in my spare time from practicing martial arts...

Seeing Ying's expression, Lady Guuji knew exactly what she was thinking.

She sniffed the air and then walked toward a vendor's stall.

"Hello, I'd like three servings of this pastry."

Lady Guuji said to the merchants.

"Okay, okay..."

The vendor nodded somewhat nervously.

He made three servings of pastries and handed them to Lady Guuji. Lady Guuji smiled and paid with Mora, chatting with him for a few words before turning and walking to Shadow's side.

"Come on, try this snack. I remember that every time Chiyo and I went out, we would buy one."

She spoke to the shadow.

"Um."

Ying took the pastry and put it in her mouth.

Her expression changed slightly, and her brows furrowed a little.

Bai Ye was also eating a snack when he saw Kage stop moving, and he became a little curious.

This dessert tastes pretty good, sweet and delicious, just to my liking. Why is Ying making that face?

"They look the same on the outside, but are completely different inside..."

"Shadow said softly."

I used to eat a lot of sweet snacks from Miyoshi Chiyo and Lady Guuji, but back then they were savory instead of the sweet kind we have now.

Although they look the same on the outside, they are completely different on the inside.

"Yes, it's completely different from what I ate before." Lady Guuji swallowed the sweet in his mouth. "Some things may look the same on the outside, but they may have changed a lot inside. Everything will develop and cannot remain unchanged forever."

"It's like this snack. Back when our army went to war, the samurai practiced martial arts, and the daily consumption was enormous, with sweat constantly flowing. So we needed salt to replenish ourselves. But now that Inazuma is in a long period of stagnation and fatigue, everyone needs sweetness to make the stagnation more comfortable."

The story of Yingming Lady Guuji is not simply about this snack.

Are you opposing my idea?

She asked the Lady Guuji.

"Yes, Inazuma hasn't changed at all, which is really terrible. Do you think the Sakoku Decree is a good idea? Kage, Inazuma should be getting better and better, instead of being like a stagnant pool."

When asked about this topic, Lady Guuji did not beat around the bush but spoke directly and frankly.

Facing his best friend, Ying paused for a moment, then answered honestly, "This is for Inazuma. I don't want your hard work to go to waste."

She looked at Inazuma.

As a military man who rose to power directly, she worried that she wouldn't be able to do a good job.

So let's not change it.

This is also a way of getting closer to eternity.

At this moment, Lady Guuji walked up to her. He put his arm around her shoulder, looked at her, and said:

"Are you afraid? Is the one who can cleave through any enemy's shadow with a single strike afraid of a challenge?"

"I..."

Ying wanted to say that she wasn't afraid, but she also realized that she really didn't dare to face the matter of governing the country.

Fear of the challenge.

"Did we take up arms to fight so that Inazuma would never change? Kage, there were many samurai who returned with me from the 'darkness'. Can you hear the voice from five hundred years ago?"

Lady Guuji continued speaking.

"Besides, even if you want Inazuma to remain unchanged, everything is actually changing. It's just that you're unwilling to admit it. You changed after eating some sweets, and you changed after trusting the samurai. Even you yourself, haven't you changed?"

Upon hearing the last sentence, Ying immediately retorted.

"I haven't changed."

"Nothing has changed? Is that so?" Lady Guuji asked Shadow with a strange smile on its lips.

"Um."

Ying nodded again, affirmatively.

Just then, Lady Guuji flashed up behind Bai Ye.

"Come, look at me and speak to Bai Ye."

She pushed Bai Ye forward a step and said.

"Ah!"

Bai Ye was a little confused.

I'm not involved in this.

"I... he and I were in a teaching relationship..."

The video is a bit choppy.

"I said it is a teaching relationship. When did you teach other people before?" Huzhai Palace said 'strangely'.

"Are you thinking of something else?"

"Say whatever you want."

Ying turned away somewhat evasively.

Only eternity can prevent loss. Only eternity can prevent sorrow.

"But I'm here! If something is lost, and nothing changes, you can't find it again. The reason I'm standing here is because of the changes that came from Liyue."

Lady Guuji spoke earnestly to Shadow.

"Even if you come, Chiyo, really..."

Of course, without a real solution, it's difficult to resolve.

Lady Guuji thought to itself.

Then, she looked at Bai Ye.

At this moment, Bai Ye also spoke up and asked Ying:

"Perhaps I also have a way to Makoto?"

To Makoto in Dreamy Musou, one must see it for oneself to confirm it.
