Chitose knew the situation of the Princess better than Su Lun. At this moment, she suddenly spoke up and asked, "Princess, I see you've been frowning for the past few days, are you facing some difficulties?"

Chitose guessed something and asked curiously, "Has the truth behind the last assassination attempt been clarified?"
"It's complicated."
Hearing this question, the seriousness on the Princess's face became evident. "From the existing clues, we can almost be certain that Abe Yasukazu, that 'demonic figure,' is likely not one of the shogunate's men."
Hearing this, Chitose also felt puzzled and exclaimed in surprise, "Not one of the Takeda shogunate's men?"
