Finally, Dazai could only resign and follow the invitation of the commander of Masamune and the other knights to immediately return to the palace at this time.
They rode together and passed through this vast grassland and passed through a forest. Until finally they began to arrive in front of a magnificent and sturdy palace.
Yeap, looks like a large building built using wood and stone as the main building material. And usually the building is designed as a center of defense when the enemy comes to attack.
During the war, the palace will usually be used as a headquarters, a place to store funds for war needs, as well as a storage center for supplies such as food and ammunition.
This important palace served as the residence of the emperor, shogun, warlord, government center and gathering place of information about the war situation.
Just like castles in Europe, castles in Japan are generally built near main roads or on the riverbank for ease of transportation and maintaining areas that are considered strategic.
"Wow .. This is the palace of the legendary and very historic Hanbei emperor Fujiwara. It was located in Kyoto. I was in Kyoto during the Muromachi period. So cool!! Ah ... I have to take some photos for mementos!"
Dazai muttered softly then started to take out his advanced phone and started taking some pictures of the palace that was so majestic and sturdy.
CEKKV ...
CEKKV ...
CEKKV ...
"Whoa .. so cool!!" muttered Dazai after seeing the results of Dazai's super advanced phone camera.
They were all still on horseback and began to pass through a large and wide bridge built on a river that had clear water.
In the middle of the bridge was an elongated purple carpet. Along the sides of the bridge looks a little foggy, but the fog does not reduce the beautiful panorama for Dazai. It even more shows the impression of a palace that is so amazing.
"Come, Prince Keiji!" said Commander Masamune who had descended earlier than the horse.
"Oh, alright!" said Dazai then immediately jumped down from the horse and began to shake his waist staring at the amazement of the surrounding that was so fantastic!
Whoa!! This is so cool!! This palace ... this bridge .. all this architecture is really like the Muromachi era .. the clothes they wear ... the air is still so natural and fresh .. whoa .. fantastic!! I really went back to the time of Sengoku Basara!!
Inner Dazai began to stretch out his two arms wide while closing his pair of eyes to enjoy the beauty before him at this moment.
"Everything!! Prince Keiji Fujiwara has arrived. Give her a welcome!!" yell at one of them.
All the guards who were already standing on the edge of the driveway neatly complete with their armor clothes began to pay their respects by bowing their heads and half squatting and their right legs bent upwards, while his left hand is still holding the weapon and his right hand is holding the shield.
Now Dazai aka Keiji began to stretch with his broad steps and so dashing (acting ) and followed by the commander Masamune and several other knights again.
Now they began to visit a main hall in this magnificent palace to face the Hanbei emperor Fujiwara who was the father of Keiji Fujiwarra.
Commander Masamune and the knights who came with Dazai immediately paid their respects to Hanbei emperor Fujiwara by squatting down and bending his right leg upward and slightly bowing his head.
They all did it compactly, except for Dazai. Dazai was still standing firmly staring at the father who was sitting there and staring at Dazai.
"Keiji!! Where's your manners! Let's pay your respects to the great emperor Hanbei!!" shouted a young man who was standing by the emperor's side, and he seemed to be Keiji's brother.
The conscious Dazai finally immediately paid his respects to the emperor, even though the emperor was actually his own father.
"Sincerely, Your Majesty emperor Hanbei Fujiwara!!" Dazai began to pay his respects, but was very different from the others.
One of Dazai's legs began to be lifted and placed on the table, both hands bent in front with the right hand clenched, while the left hand opened, then linked the two just like that, the two of them simply, like the greetings of a kung fu fighter.
Everyone was aghast and shocked at Keiji's unusual behavior and became a little disrespectful at the moment. It does not reflect a son of the emperor who was so respected and impressed.
"Keiji-sama!! Do it properly and politely!" this time Masamune immediately pulled back Dazai's clothes, in order for Dazai to immediately squat down like the others.
Actually Keiji and Masamune are very close, they have a good relationship . Not only as leaders and subordinates, but they were also friendly.
For Masamune, it is better to be sprayed Keiji when compared to the spray of the great emperor who is very feared, respected and respected.
"Keiji!! What's wrong with you?! Why are you dressed like that?" asked the Hanbei emperor to start questioning him Keiji's very different appearance today.
"That's right! What clothes are you wearing right now?! You are a prince and the son of the great emperor Fujiwara! Dress and act that reflects you!" cursed the young man with long, tied hair who was still standing beside the emperor.
If noticed it seemed like the young man was so dislike of Keiji, it was very visible through the look of his eyes that were so sharp and filled with hatred as he looked at Keiji.
Dazai who was staring at the young man instantly recalled his history course, and began to recall who exactly the man was.
Yeap, she is Azai Fujiwara. Keiji's half-sister, who is only 2 years old. And Azai did not like Keiji very much and intended to bring down Keiji, even they would also fight in the future for the clan and the territory.
Dazai began to smile slantingly looking at Azai and began to rise to his feet again. And Dazai began to make a speech that made everyone look confused.
"You must be Azai Fujiwara! My half-brother who hates me so much and always tries to bring me down with your scheming and cunning wits! Cih ... don't pretend to be kind and wise before the emperor!" dole Dazai bluntly.
Azai who listened to the words from Keiji instantly gawked and looked so upset. However Azai was still trying to contain his anger because his father was by his side at the moment.
"Keiji-sama! Don't talk about the no-no. Respect the emperor!" this time Masamune pulled back Keiji's clothes and forced Keiji to salute back.
"I'm sorry, Lord Keiji, Your Majesty the Hanbei emperor. Mr. Keiji is not well today. I will take him to rest immediately." said Masamune quickly so that the atmosphere does not become more messy because of the actions of Keiji who was a little different today.
