Ninety-seven, Flower Street Banquet (3)
.Year 7th, Flower Street Night Banquet (Bow)
"Zhuo Cup!"
The last guest who booked in this most luxurious private room in the Iwai room was the last guest, the deputy captain Kuroshima Tadao, who had just returned from Hokkien, who had finally arrived, and the grand banquet of the night finally officially began.
As the opening of the banquet, everyone raised a cup full of sake, clinked glasses with each other, and drank them all in one go.
As far as Feili feels, although this sake looks like soju, it actually tastes more similar to low-alcohol rice wine. It is relatively a little sticky, and it also has a very long aftertaste. In short, it is a very good sweet and low-alcohol meal wine.
Put down the wine glass in his hand. He raised his chopsticks and tasted the grilled eel in a small plate. Although the taste was a little lighter, it still had a unique flavor. Unfortunately, the quantity was too small, and the two chopsticks were gone. In fact, other dishes were similar.
On the low table in front of each person, there are raw tuna meat, fried shrimp, salmon kebabs steamed silver abalone, roasted eel, tempura jelly tofu and takoyaki, as well as various sashimi, sushi and pastries. There are at least twenty small dishes and bowls in a row. Moreover, the dishes and tableware are all beautiful in shape, with color matching, and even the low table is decorated with gold carvings. The surface is inlaid with colorful shells, spliced into flowers, birds, fish and insects. It is truly a perfect color, fragrance and flavor.
The only problem is that the number of each dish is too small.
The dishes that serve dishes are already covered with patterns and cannot be filled with vegetables. There is only a very small pinch of food in the middle. Often a small piece of tofu, a small fish with a finger length, or even a glutinous rice ball or two, even a dish. Therefore, it seems that more than twenty dishes are piled up. In fact, even if they are all together, they can barely fill a medium-sized rice bowl the size of a palm.
But in the early morning, Feili happened to have a very physically exhausting "efficacy" with the elves captives. After serving His Highness, Dasuiya, the magic goddess, she had never eaten much. As a result, she had just moved a few chopsticks and there was a mess on the table, and there was not much left. The geisha serving him had just come up and had not even had time to pour wine for Feili.
In this situation, he couldn't help but smiled awkwardly, as if he could see a very hidden look of contempt in the eyes of the geisha beside him, as if he was accustomed to being knowledgeable in the city. He looked at the old man from a certain countryside.
Looking back at the other guests, Feili found that these urban management captains did not seem to be elegant and delicate people, but should be said to be rude and unwilling to be a fighter from a plaintiff. I think they would not have too high cultural literacy. They ate one of their dishes in a moment, and even stroked their stomachs and kept saying that there was too little stuff.
After observing the main seat, the new Edomachi Urban Management Team Leader named Akashi Katsuka, did not move his chopsticks much, but instead made fun of the maid beside him. From his appearance, the team leader seemed to be only over thirty years old, not very majestic, and his face was even a little pale, which was obviously overly drunk and colored, but the gleam that flashed from time to time in his eyes still proved that he should have some skills.
It is said that he was able to hold the lonely village for three months under the siege of the rebels, and he would not be an incompetent person.
He turned around and looked at the Magic Goddess sitting next to the right, who was considered to be his guest. He was very excited about everything here. He also wanted to make fun of the maids, hug them, and even asked them to feed themselves wine with their mouths. The method of hooking 3 is even more sophisticated than some of the men present. Many gods do not need to comment. They are born to know all languages.
After watching around for a while, Feili felt a little pain in her eyes for some reason. There was nothing particularly serious about it, but her eyes were swollen. At the beginning, he thought it was a group of Chinese-style geishas in the room dressed up in a colorful manner, which made him dazzled.
However, at this moment, all the girls had already taken the table and had not returned yet. Then why
Oh. It turns out that it is not just the bright kimono of the geisha, it looks colorful. The decorations of the houses, from cushions, vases to candles, especially screens and paper sliding doors, seem to be colorful as long as they can be filled, and they are afraid that they are not bright enough. Even the windowsill door is full of colors and rich in ink.
Such rich and strong floral colors are smaller than the white walls, green tiles, green bamboos, pine trees, and rockery streams. The freshness and elegance of the style is really different. No wonder I was so tired of the color just now.
Feili couldn't help but sigh, and raised her glass to drink a small sip of sake. For some reason, he always felt that this luxury room was out of style with the elegant courtyard around her, and seemed to have suffered from a severe disease of wealth. In fact, it was not the truly best place for banquets here, but the store made it special and magnificent, specifically used to fool those who only know how to compare luxury."
(A dear comrade, you are the truth,)
7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives? 77 knives? 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives 7 knives
At the same time, an old acquaintance who once moved to the Mazka continent with Feili. The main governor of the Sanxue Chinese Kuroshima family, His Highness Tadao Kuroshima, who had just been appointed as the deputy captain of the urban management team of Edocho. He was sitting cross-legged behind a low table near the door, pushing the paper door to the left and right sides, while enjoying the night at the turn of summer and autumn in the courtyard, while his only brother who survived to this day, the Oriental pseudo-girl Kuroshima Ren who came to the banquet with Feili. He sighed and sat opposite each other and drank with his only brother.
The deeds of the Ichiroshima family specializing in male style are almost well-known in Japan. Therefore, after learning about the arrival of His Highness Tadao Kuroshima, the store did not arrange for his maid to serve him. He also mistakenly recommended his younger brother Hitoshima as a favored personal surname."
So, among the beautiful and fragrant temples in the room, only one corner of the Heidao brothers seemed very deserted.
In fact, Tadao Kuroshima had no intention of enjoying himself. He was driven back from the northern Essay land because of his failure to move to the vassal state.
The last time, the Black Island vassal was destroyed by a tsunami because of its fief, Black Island. The water source was cut off and it was unable to be rebuilt. It was forced by the creditors to come to the door and almost abolish the vassal. Although it was later tried to mediate by Feili, it finally did not suffer such a bad fortune. However, the original Black Island territory was really not suitable for living, and the shogunate was unwilling to use the rich fertile Kanto soil to resettle these stray dogs, so he casually set up a deserted place on the snowy and ice in the north and let the people of the Black Island family find ways to rebuild the vassal state.
Although the living environment of Eri Island is really bad, it will snow heavily in at least half a year in a year. The howling cold wind is stronger than a knife, and there are cruel savages and big bears, it can at least preserve the name of the family and the vassal state. The extremely down-and-out Black Island family has nothing to say. After leaving some Deli tribes to help Feili's giant bear army to repay the favor, they began to migrate northward. First, they took a boat to the Shinkan Port, the shogunate city directly under the shogunate, and then with the help of the officials of the Chamkatsu, they planned to investigate the new territory.
Unexpectedly, at this critical moment, the Kyoto mutiny, the shogunate army was destroyed, and the news that the imperial court issued the Makui edict finally reached the remote and cold Hoi Island. Then a terrible riot was sent out. A local ruined ronin was incited by the fallen Makui patriots. They contacted nearby pirates and barbarians in the mountains, and put together thousands of mobs. They rushed to the port of Hakkam.
The box hall, which had been neglecting military equipment since its establishment, was at this time, at which there were only more than a hundred old, weak and disabled soldiers with no martial arts skills. Not only did they have artillery or knights, but they didn't even have a minimum guard wall. The intelligence work was also extremely bad. Until the enemy soldiers came to the city, they did not realize the result overnight, and were attacked and burned by a large number of ronin bandits. The guards died or fled, and the pursuing official committed suicide in despair.
The Kuroshima family members who lived in the quest for peace were also involved in the misfortune and had to fight to the death. In the end, there were many casualties and many people lost their way in panic and disappeared without knowing where to go. Only a few two or three survivors fled onto the sea boat and then returned to Edo with a bumpy journey.
Therefore, at this moment, His Highness Tadao Kuroshima's vassal lord has become a completely bare commander. Not only has he no territory, he even has no relatives and retainers. His father who stepped down from office was trapped in the box hall, and his life and death are still unknown.
Although Tadao and courageous performance in the Battle of Hakotan, Tadao Kuroshima was named the deputy captain of the Edo-cho Urban Management Office by the shogunate as soon as he returned to Edo. It can be regarded as a promotion and reuse and commendation of loyal ministers, it is still difficult to relieve the melancholy and loss in his heart.
1. Unlike those colleagues who were mainly from untouchables, no matter how different the style and position of the Kuroshima family were, no matter how different the style and position were, they were looked at by other princes. After all, they were also boasted. The bloodline of the "Three Thousand Years of Pure Blood Chinese" was very noble. The gap between the two sides must be very serious. Even if Tadao Kuroshima was willing to make a fuss, these guys with a very serious attitude towards hating the rich may not be willing to accept it.
More importantly, the Edomachi Urban Management Team is an organizational group that has been established for many years. The upper-level leaders are basically familiar with each other. Although there will definitely be some struggles and barriers between them, for example, the new captain Akamachi is an excluded person who is promoted from the front line by virtue of his military achievements, but at least he is always within the same organizational framework and will not be regarded as an outsider. But Tadao Kuroshima is a leader who suddenly airborne in. He is also a "returnee from overseas who came back from abroad." He knows almost nothing about the details and secrets of the Edomachi Urban Management Team, only knows that this is a rather xenophobic group.
Of course, the urban management team is also a yamen with personnel mobility after all. It is not impossible for the airborne superiors to integrate into such a group, but it takes a long time to pave the way and transition to work slowly. With the urgency of the current civil war situation in the island, Deputy Captain Tadao Kuroshima probably doesn’t have much time to get along with colleagues.
In fact, the shogunate ruling authorities probably stuffed him into sand because they were worried that the city management team was too big to control and it was difficult to control.
Therefore, according to Tadao Kuroshima's estimate, although he has the noble title of deputy captain, he seems to be under one person and above everyone else. However, in the end, it would be considered very good if he can get the real power equivalent to a staff officer.
But no matter what, it is better to have an official position than to be completely empty. At least he can get some power, so he has nothing to complain about.
At this moment, Tadao Kuroshima was looking at the courtyard outside the door, while admiring the koi in the water and the green bamboo beside the pond. While listening to the gurgling sound of the rockery clear spring slowly flowing into the bamboo tube,
The light and fresh water and then gradually soothe the depression in his chest until his heart is calm and his eyes are clear, he picked up a crystal clear tuna sashimi and put it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.
Strangely, although he acted very zenly, he didn't enjoy it very much in his mouth. When each piece of sashimi entered the mouth, the feeling of chewing was quite strange, which made the lord frown.
"It's really strange. The sashimi is clearly cut so evenly, and it's really thin and it's broken after biting, and it doesn't get spoiled or smelly. How can I bite it? It looks like this is wrong?"
Tadao Kuroshima muttered unwillingly, bounced his painful cheeks twice, hesitating whether to give up the red and tender high-end sashimi until his younger brother Hitomi Kuroshima inserted it in a little embarrassedly and handed over two exquisite colored porcelain plates.
"This, brother. You seem to have forgotten to dip the tuna sashimi in soy sauce and mustard."
Tadao Kuroshima took the plate with a stiff expression, and almost without looking at it, so he immersed the sashimi on the chopsticks into the middle of the light green mustard, and then put the sashimi wrapped in a thick layer of mustard into his mouth in his brother's surprised gaze!
A strong and spicy smell immediately surged onto his tongue. He held back the tears that were about to burst out from his eyes and swallowed the sashimi without chewing. After feeling the intense stimulation of his throat and mouth, his originally tranced consciousness also became much more awake.
Now is not the time to complain. Even if there are only two or three big cats and kittens left in the trusted subordinates, even if they are in a rather awkward position, reviving the Heidao family of the three thousand years of pure blood Chinese is still my talent and mission!
Tadao Kuroshima warned himself in a deep mood. Then he sighed slightly to his younger brother and began to tell him some details of the tragic incident in the Essay Island, and tried to inquire about the latest developments of the Giant Bear Legion and Major General Fili 7 Taylor in the past few months. At the same time, he vaguely revealed his intention to make good use of the old employer.
First, he knew very well that his direct subordinates had been killed or injured, and he had no basic connections in the urban management team, and he did not have enough time to operate slowly. If he wanted to seize the real power of the army as quickly as possible, the only way was to "harbor foreign powers to respect himself." Relying on his close contact with the Giant Bear Legion in the past, he would in turn deter those nominal subordinates in the urban management team."
Inadvertently, the giant bear army that was floating in a foreign land expanded its potential strength with the help of the critical and chaotic situation here.

In different countries, there are often completely different banquet etiquettes.
For example, at this time, Feili stroked her belly that had just eaten 30% full, while stunningly enjoying the exotic dance music.
This Far East island country, which is lonely overseas, seems to have a tendency to like extremes in any aspect. Sometimes they pay attention to etiquette and rules to the extreme rigidity. It is said that if a low-level samurai fails to behave at shogunate ceremonies, they will be punished with a septum. Sometimes they are completely unrestrained and throw all the rules and common sense behind their heads.
For example, the arrangement of this banquet seemed quite strange to Feili.
First, they cooked and drank tea, then brought a small table of exquisite meals to each person, but they only asked everyone to fill in one, and the food case was removed. A maid leader shook the copper bell a few times, and replaced it with a passionate and unrestrained Western-style dance!
Although each of these steps is definitely very elegant, and the tea, wine, food, music and dance are also very high-end. However, the combination of such messy combinations shows an lingering nouveau riche atmosphere.
However, this did not prevent him from appreciating the girls' soft jade bodies without these fun things. Can it be considered as eating flowers, wine and horses?
Accompanied by the passionate and unrestrained music, a group of beauties wearing only translucent veils walked out of the dark corridor behind the paper sliding door, stretched out their pink arms, and began a beautiful dance performance.
These selected dancers are all beautiful young girls, and they are rarely well-proportioned and have plump breasts. They have a very rare perfect long legs in this sad island country where rosy legs and flat chests are popular. The two cherry-like rosy lips are faint and shy. A pair of lively beautiful eyes contain a strong and infinite spring. They show their wonderful bodies and charming youthful charm to the guests without hesitation.
In the intense music, I saw pairs of arms as moist as jade, stretching flexibly like white snakes; one by one, which is more delicate and smooth than ivory, jumping out gentle and exciting dance steps; a pair of plump and swollen breasts, deep in the ravines, and the pink light trembles constantly with the sound of music; and the convex and white buttocks twisted rapidly like electric shock; even the tender red secrets at the roots of the double strands were fluttering with the gauze scarf. It was really indescribable intoxication and seductive in the audience's lustful eyes!
