In the afternoon of the same day, Matsugami Yoshimitsu was finally summoned by Matsugami Yoshiyuki after several days of detention.

In fact, after the failure to win over Saigo Kanjiu, Matsugami Yoshiyuki had a basic decision about how to deal with Matsugami Yoshimitsu, but in order to test whether Matsugami Yoshimitsu had a resentment towards the Matsugami family because of this, he still decided to summon Matsugami Yoshimitsu in the castle tower. And this also declares that Matsugami Yoshimitsu's most dangerous moment is coming, and all his previous efforts may be wiped out if this meeting goes wrong.

Matsugami Yoshimitsu was deeply aware of this, so he had been respectful since the moment he entered the Matsugami Castle Castle Tower, and he did not dare to show the slightest resentment and dissatisfaction. At this time, in the castle tower of Matsugami Castle, Matsugami Yoshimitsu sat cross-legged and leaned over and said respectfully. "My lord, I am really grateful that I am willing to summon Xia Yiguang for making such a big mistake in Xia Yiguang."

Matsugami Yoshiyuki saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu take the initiative to admit the crime and shouted. "Since you know that you are guilty, then this temple asks you, why do you ignore your own family's laws and start a war with other families privately."

Matsugami Yoshimitsu hurriedly returned. "Lord Mingjian, this time I am really forced to do so. The old Kondo Yoshitsuna of the mountain family led a large army to besiege it, and he was really helpless to resist. ”

Matsugami Yoshiyuki said with a sneer. "Then how did the main hall hear that this matter was caused by your private visit to the territory of the Katayama family to transfer the Tsuno people, and it is said that the three people of Tsuno under your command came from this. How do you explain this. ”

Matsugami Yoshimitsu, who was sitting below, couldn't help but sweat after listening to Matsugami Yoshiyuki's questioning. Although he was already aware of the revelation of the affairs of the Tsuno people, he was still nervous when asked about it at this time. He said with half-truths and half-truths. "The lord is good, I heard that the Katayama family also wants to recruit the Tsuno people. In order not to increase the strength of the Katayama family, the great enemy of the family, I had to do it. ”

"Then why didn't you plead guilty to the temple afterwards? The main hall waited for you for a few days before sending a long chain to Matsumoto Castle to ask you for your sin. Matsugami asked sharply again.

"This, this is really a serious injury at the time, and I didn't think of this section for a while. Excuse me. Matsugami Yoshimitsu hurriedly explained.

Matsugami Yoshiyuki said with a sneer. "So the temple is to blame you."

Matsugami Yoshimitsu had no choice but to remain silent.

In fact, both Matsugami Yoshiyuki and Matsugami Yoshimitsu knew that they were telling lies, and these reasons were untenable. However, neither of them wants to tear their faces at the moment, so no matter how nonsense they are, both Matsugami Yoshiyuki and Matsugami Yoshimitsu have to accept it, because they need to keep in harmony.

After a while, Matsugami Yoshiyuki said again. "Yoshimitsu, this hall heard that your side room Nana is now pregnant, but I don't know if there is such a thing."

Matsugami Yoshimitsu was shocked, he knew that Matsugami Yoshiyuki would not trust him easily, but at this time he had no way out so he had to say. "Thank you for your concern, Nana is now eight months pregnant."

Sure enough, Matsugami Yoshiyuki didn't mention Nana for no reason, he said with a smile after listening to Matsugami Yoshimitsu's answer. "That's a great thing to congratulate. After all, Matsugami Castle is prosperous in Matsumoto Castle, and there are many good doctors here, and the main hall wants to take Nana to Matsugami Castle to give birth, and I don't know what Yoshimitsu thinks. ”

Matsugami hesitated, knowing that Matsugami did not believe that he was going to take Nana and his unborn child hostage. But how could he bear it? Matsugami said through gritted teeth. "Nana doesn't understand the rules, and I really don't dare to let Nana disturb the lord. Nana shouldn't be too busy at the moment, and the lord's kindness is in his heart. ”

Of course, Matsugami Yoshiyuki will not let Matsugami Yoshimitsu get away with it so easily, and he can't believe Matsugami Yoshimitsu for the sake of the Matsugami family's family business to last. So Matsugami Yoshiyuki heard that Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't want Nana to be a hostage, and immediately scolded. "Why Yoshimitsu don't you worry about the main hall? Do you really have the intention of betraying your family in your heart, so you don't dare to let your side room stay in Matsugami Castle? In this way, don't blame the main hall for not talking about the friendship between master and slave. ”

Matsugami Yoshiyuki's meaning is already obvious, and if Matsugami Yoshimitsu wants to return to Matsumoto Castle safely, then he must hand over Nana as a hostage. Otherwise, I am afraid that he will not even be able to save his life. So Matsugami Yoshimitsu had to compromise, and in the troubled times of the Warring States, Nana could not survive without his protection. Matsugami Yoshimitsu said with a deep breath. "In this way, Nana will be entrusted to the lord."

"Hahahaha, Yoshimitsu, you are really loyal to your family." Matsugami Yoshiyuki said with a smug smile when he saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu finally give in to himself.

"Hahahaha." Matsugami Yoshimitsu gritted his teeth and smiled despite the anger in his heart, and at this time he was extremely strong in wanting to control his own destiny. ......

After Matsugami Yoshimitsu and Matsugami Yoshiyuki negotiated the terms, this far-reaching meeting ended. However, just as Matsugami Yoshimitsu was about to leave, Matsugami Yoshiyuki deliberately expressed his appreciation for Saigo Kanhisa. "Anyway, Lord Saigo is really a loyal minister. This time, not only did you go back and forth for Yoshimitsu's affairs, but even asked for the side room of the main hall, where is Yoshino, and the main hall wanted to recruit him as a retainer with 1,000 stones, but he was also refused. ”

Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't know what Matsugami Yoshiyuki said for a while, so he had to joke. "That's a shame. Not to mention 1,000 stones, as long as there are 500 stones, maybe Guan Jiu will be given to the lord as a retainer. Hahahaha. ”

"Hahahaha." Matsugami Yoshiyuki also laughed when he saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu pretending to be confused.

Then Matsugami Yoshimitsu retired to Matsugami Yoshiyuki.

When Matsugami Yoshimitsu returned to his house in Matsugami Castle, he kept thinking about Matsukami's last words. Matsugami Yoshiyuki's purpose is to drive a wedge between Saigo Kanhisa and Matsugami Yoshimitsu, and Matsugami Yoshimitsu can guess this. But as a Warring States lord, Matsugami Yoshimitsu had to suspect Saigo Kanhisa.

Saigo Kanhisa's loyalty to Yoshimitsu Matsugami can be seen, but what if he is bought by Yoshiyuki Matsugami and placed by his side? In the troubled times of the Warring States Period, where fathers and sons and brothers could kill each other, Matsugami Yoshimitsu could not and did not dare to guarantee that Saigo Kanhisa would not sell himself for 1,000 koku. At this moment, Matsugami Yoshimitsu is full of suspicion and worry.

Soon Matsugami Yoshimitsu returned to his house, which was actually the place where he had been imprisoned. Although Matsugami Yoshimitsu could not leave Matsugami Castle until Nana came to Matsugami Castle as a hostage, he was already able to walk freely in the castle. However, Matsugami Yoshimitsu didn't go anywhere after returning to Yashiki.

Matsugami Yoshimitsu finally decides to give Saigo Kanhisa a chance, and he waits for Saigo Kanhisa to confess to himself in Yashiki. If Saigo Kanhisa mentions to himself that he was bought, then he can still be trusted, if he doesn't come, then no matter whether Saigo Kanhisa betrays Matsugami Yoshimitsu or not, he will no longer trust him. Being suspicious has never been a weakness for Lord Yoshiko.

"I hope you don't disappoint the main hall." At this time, Matsugami Yoshimitsu, who was waiting for Saigo for a long time in his house, thought in his heart.
