Chapter Seventy-Six: Forbearance
Day 2.
Saigo Kanhisa, who was temporarily staying in Matsugami Castle because of the fine money he was escorting Matsugami Yoshimitsu, was unexpectedly summoned by Matsugami Yoshiyuki, and soon he rushed back to Matsumoto Castle with a worried face. At the same time, the envoys of the Matsugami family hurriedly sent orders to the retainers scattered around Matsugami Castle, and the entire Matsugami domain soon began to operate at high speed.
A day later, while the retainers of the Matsugami family gathered their troops and horses to rush to Matsumoto Castle, Saigo Kanhisa finally arrived at Matsumoto Castle after a night of travel. Since there was something very urgent to report to Matsugami Yoshimitsu, Saigo Kanhisa rushed from the castle town to Matsugami Yoshimitsu without stopping at Matsumoto Castle.
"Saigo-sama, you're back."
"Lord Saigo, Matsugami Castle didn't make things difficult for you, did you?"
"Saigo-sama, did this trip go well?" ......
Matsugami Yoshimitsu's retainers were currently living in the castle town of Matsumoto Castle, and many of them saw Saigo Kanhisa and asked him about his trip to Matsugami Castle. Saigo Kanjiu is a very kind person in Yoshimitsu, and if he encounters this situation on weekdays, he will naturally have to greet these retainers.
But at this time, Saigo Kanhisa only bowed down and saluted the retainers who greeted him, and then hurried to Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence. A samurai, who had always been steady, had become so flustered that the retainers of Matsumoto Castle couldn't help but worry about the outcome of Saigo's trip to the castle.
"It seems that Matsugami Castle may have changed again."
"Matsugami Yoshiyuki, what else does he want? The lord even sent Mrs. Nana, who was pregnant, to be a hostage. ”
"Don't worry, my lord will tell you what happened to me soon." ......
Around the residence of Yoshimitsu Matsugami.
"Saigo-sama, you're back. This is to meet the lord, you wait, and go to the messenger on the next horse. At this time, Sanshiro, who had become Matsugami Yoshimitsu's small surname, asked respectfully after seeing Saigo Guanjiu.
However, Saigo Kanhisa was in a hurry to report that important matter to Matsugami Yoshimitsu at the moment, so he didn't care about etiquette, so he went to Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence and said. "There is no need to report it, Lord Ben has important matters to report to the lord, and these false lords will not care."
Matsugami Yoshimitsu is indeed not a person who is obsessed with etiquette, but Kosanshiro is a very loyal surname. He saw that Saigo Guan was about to break into Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence without spreading the word, and immediately followed anxiously, and shouted at the same time. "Saigo-sama, please stop. The villain has not yet been passed on like the lord? ”
But how could he stop Saigo Kanhisa? It didn't take long for Saigo Kanhisa to break into Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence.
"My lord, I have something important to report below." As soon as he entered Matsugami Yoshimitsu's residence, Saigo Kanhisa shouted loudly.
Just as Matsugami Yoshimitsu was surprised by Saigo Kanhisa's sudden intrusion, Sanshiro, who was closely behind Saigo Kanhisa, also walked in. Seeing the lord's somewhat surprised expression, Sanshiro hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty. "Lord, the villain didn't stop Lord Xixiang to disturb the lord, please punish the lord."
"Sanshiro, it's none of your business. In the future, if Saigo-sama is in a hurry, you don't need to pass it on, just let him come in directly. Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't care about these false courtesies, and naturally he wouldn't blame Sanshiro, this matter just let him use it to buy people's hearts.
"Haha, the villain is leaving." Sanshiro was relieved to see that Matsugami Yoshimitsu did not blame him, and quickly left.
Saigo Guanjiu also knew that he was a little abrupt at this time, and he hurriedly asked for sin. "My lord, I broke into the residence of the lord for a long time without being communicated, please punish the lord."
Matsugami Yoshimitsu saw that Saigo Kanjiu was in such a hurry to break in, knowing that something important must happen, so naturally he would not blame him, so he waved his hand. "You don't have to be like that. By the way, your trip to Matsugami Castle went well. Saigo Kanjiu saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu ask about Matsugami Castle, and suddenly felt bitter in his heart and said very bitterly. "My lord, I came in such a hurry to report this matter to my lord. The lord knows that His Royal Highness Yoshiyuki of Songshang Castle is about to send troops to the Shinjin Pavilion. ”
"What? Shintsukan? Matsugami Yoshiyuki won't be so confused. "Matsugami Yoshimitsu's first feeling when he heard that Matsugami Yoshiyuki was going to send troops to the Shinjin Pavilion was unbelievable. After all, Xinjin and Matsugami are in-laws, and although the Xinjin family was defeated by the Xinjin Pavilion, its strength is still very good, and Matsugami Yoshiyuki's rash attack may outweigh the losses.
Saigo Kanjiu saw that Matsugami Yoshimitsu was puzzled and hurriedly explained. "My lord, according to the investigation below, it seems that because the lord of the Shinjin Pavilion, Shintsu Mitsu, died, and Mrs. Yuno, the mother of the new head of the family, Shintsu Yusada, specially asked the Matsukami family to send troops to help stabilize the situation."
"What?" Matsugami Yoshimitsu had been struggling in this troubled world for nearly two years at this time, and he was already no longer Wuxia Amun, and he suddenly saw the depth of what Saigo Kanhisa said, and couldn't help but sigh. "How stupid Mrs. Yuno is, and how good Matsugami is righteous. Didn't Mrs. Yuno lure the wolf into the house by doing this? If the Shintsu family is gone, it will be gone, but I'm afraid that our Matsumoto Castle will have a hard time in the future. ”
Saigo Kanjiu saw that Matsugami Yoshimitsu was a little frustrated, and hurriedly said. "My lord, now is not the time to be depressed, we have a difficult time to overcome at the moment."
"Oh, please speak for a long time." Matsugami Yoshimitsu saw the solemnity of Saigo Kanhisa's words, and immediately cheered up.
"Haha." Saigo Kanjiu said with a little heaviness. "My lord, His Highness Yoshiyuki said that the assembly place of the army this time should be at Matsumoto Castle, and we have been asked to prepare the food and grass needed for the future army. But the military service we are going to do this time can be halved. My lord, please see, this is a warrant given to you by His Royal Highness Yixing. ”
Saigo Kanhisa said and handed over the warrant of Matsugami Yoshiyuki. Matsugami Yoshimitsu took the warrant handed over by Saigo Kanhisa, took a cursory glance, and immediately stood up and became furious. "Damn, it's understandable that the army is gathering in Matsumoto Castle. The main hall is not at fault, and he doesn't dare to take the opportunity to make trouble if he wants to loosen his righteous deeds. But he actually asked the main hall to prepare the grain and grass needed by the entire army alone, which is to weaken the strength of the main hall. In addition, if it is a general conscription, it may be a good thing to halve the military service. But this time the battle of Shintsukan is a battle that must be won, and Matsugami Yoshiyuki wants to make the main hall have no chance to make contributions. ”
"The Lord is angry, and now the time has not come." Saigo Kanjiu saw that Matsugami Yoshimitsu was furious, and hurriedly persuaded.
Matsugami Yoshimitsu had calmed down at this time, and he sat down again and said. "Guan Jiu, don't worry. Matsugami Yoshiyuki is trying to force the main hall to rebel, and the main hall will not let him get his wish. ”
"The lord is wise, now is the time to be patient, and patience can be turned into gold." Saigo Kanhisa General Matsugami Yoshimitsu did not lose his mind, and he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Guan Jiu, you go and inform the retainers to hold an assessment. I still have to inform them of this. Matsugami Yoshimitsu said in a deep voice.
"Haha, the minister has retired for a long time." Saigo Kanhisa soon went to carry out Matsugami Yoshimitsu's orders. ......
