Chapter 4 The Lord of the Criminal Department is watching you

Since 100 years ago, the Tarao clan has been the hereditary lord of Shigaraki Township, Koga Prefecture, and has actually controlled more than 5,000 koku of land.

When the Rokkaku family mastered Minami Omi, they were cited as an important minister and respected very much.

Later, when things changed and Rokkaku declined, Tarao Mitsutoshi fought together for a while, but when he found that he had no future, he immediately contacted his old friend and tried to change his court.

It didn't take long for Rokkaku Yoshixian, Yoshiji and his son to lay down their weapons and be willing to be prisoners, which shows that this judgment is very correct.

Coincidentally, during the "probationary period", Nobunaga was assassinated, and the "Little Shizo" who was the liaison was even more dead, and Tarao Mitsutoshi couldn't continue to take this smooth road, so he had to take refuge in the potential stock of Hisho Tsuhide.

It is said that the Dorawei family originally had more than 200 Lang parties, and took advantage of the loss of power in Hexagon to gather a group of former colleagues, and the scale was once expanded to three or four hundred.

This is more than the subordinates of Nakamura Kazuji and Ishikawa Goemon combined, and it seems to mean that they are the last.

However, Tarao Mitsutoshi was already in his sixtieth year, and he couldn't do anything on the front line for a long time, and after barely working for about a year, he retired and recommended his son to inherit the position.

His three sons were called: Kota; Guangya; Mitsuhiko.

As a result, the "Dorawei Group" was divided into three groups of about 150 people after adding some newcomers.

Since June of the fourth year of the Yuan Turtle, the instructions issued by the flat hand show have been carried out separately by these groups of people.

Mitsuhiko Dorao got the help of "Uncle Mochizuki", so he took the lead. After making some gains, he immediately led people back to Wazumi Kunishi and Tian Castle to report.

At this time, it seems that Hirate Hasuhide is busy dealing with the ministers, monks, and the shogunate, and has a busy schedule and has no time to meet customers. Konishi Yukinaga, Ina Tadaji, Horio Yoshiharu and other close ministers are there. On the contrary, Anzhai Dongyasu and Doctor Terada Yasu, two who have no duties, as well as the monk Huya Zongyi, brought them to meet the guests with the lord.

Although Mitsuhiko Dorao was young and impatient, he acted quite cleverly, and when he saw this, he was not in a hurry to find someone to form a gang, but first quietly went home to visit his father and ask for advice.

His father was even more steady, he didn't say a word at first, and he didn't ask about the content of the task, and the two parents and children sat opposite each other for a long time before they sighed: "If you go to find someone who is 'close to the guards', just say that you can ask to visit Hattori Hideyasu-sama, and no one else needs to ask." In other words, you are indeed smarter than your two brothers......"

Of course, it's not too smart – otherwise you'll be able to figure out what to do on your own.

In the latter sentence, Mitsutoshi Tarao held back.

At this age, I have long learned to accept my fate, and I have lost the obsession of blindly hoping for Jackie Chan. The unicorn of the glorious ancestors is hard to find, and the third child can almost keep the family business alive, which is already considered a middle-class asset.

Anyway, it's just like that, is it possible to let the little wife conceive another one? Physiologically it's not allowed......

On the other hand, Mitsuhiko Dorao got this important hint, and quickly figured out the joints, strictly followed his father's instructions, did not make any superfluous movements, went to the city to find the "pro-guards" to report, and returned to his house to wait in peace.

Then, a day later, in the evening, Hattori Hideyasu took the initiative to come to the door.

……

"Hideyasu-sama, please, please! I don't know how to get into your eyes with some of the occasional tea and wine......" Mitsuhiko Tarao gushed endlessly, unable to hide his excitement, and hurriedly instructed his wife to take out the best collection in the house and entertain the guests.

After his father's reminder, he knew that the "senior" in front of him, who was not good-looking, silent, unpredictable, cold-faced and dead-eyed, and had a very low sense of existence, was a very important role.

Although in the minds of everyone, the intelligence is far inferior to Honda, Konishi and others, but the degree of trust that Hattori Hideyasu has gained from the lord is probably only comparable to Hirate Hideyoshi and Kawada Nagakin. And the next two, one with troops and the other from abroad, strictly speaking, are not considered to be in the center.

This is enough to deserve respect and even flattery from others.

The old minister, who is always by the side of the lord and is still deeply trusted, may not have the power to help you do anything, but if you want to dismantle the stage and harm your business, it is a quasi-one, effortless.

Mitsuhiko Tarao felt like he was at a turning point in his life, nervous and full of anticipation.

"Mitsuhiko-sama has a heart." Hattori Hideyasu squeezed out an ugly smile - not because he was in a bad mood but because he was in this nature - bowed slightly and replied, "I'm a rough person and don't know much about the tea ceremony, but if you want to drink, you will definitely be accompanied...... Of course, the premise is to get the business done first. ”

"That's, that's, work is important!" Mitsuhiko Dorao immediately looked serious, and took the trouble to order his wife and servants to remove the wine and food, and leave the table to avoid it.

In an instant, the idle people disappeared immediately, the laughter and laughter stopped, and it became an atmosphere of serious reporting work.

There is no delay at all, and there is no drama of spoiling and pampering young children, showing the style of the head of the family governing the house like governing the army.

Seeing this, Hattori Xiu'an nodded slightly in his eyes, a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes, and he said approvingly: "The way of the Qi family, I should learn more from you." Cheap and dog don't know so much. ”

"How dare you, ashamed and ashamed." Mitsuhiko Dorao smiled and said politely, and then said solemnly: "This time I got a tip-off and arrested a Kanto merchant who claimed to be 'Shinichi Sano'. However, the suspect was tortured, but he still refused to admit that he was a spy, and only confessed to stealing the Suruga gold mine. However, the two entourages couldn't help the torture and confessed some things, but unfortunately they were all low-level information, and they were of little use. The most valuable thing is that there is a noble man's side room near Kyoto, which is actually the female ninja of the Takeda family...... After we analyzed and ruled it out, it is estimated that it should be one of Matsunaga Tsutsunaga, Hideji Hatano, and Shunkei Tsutsui. It's hard to tell who it is. ”

"It's a shame." Hattori Hidean said that it was a pity, but his expression did not change, "It seems that 'Shinichi Sano' is really involved with Takeda, and the so-called 'stealing gold mines' is just an identity used to disguise...... Can't you really interrogate anything more? ”

"Alas...... I've exhausted all the means I know, and I still haven't gained much. Tarao Mitsuhiko was quite distressed, "That guy has already lost half his life, and he still refuses to tell the truth, the contemptible person is poor in skills, so let's leave it to Lord Xiu'an to deal with." ”

"When it comes to the methods of torture, I'm sure you're more proficient than I am." Hattori Hideyasu still had a sinking face, "Actually, you have done this step, which is enough to make the lord feel gratified." But...... The testimony of the retinue alone is not enough after all. ”

"Understood! Even if he doesn't open his mouth, he will definitely get a result. Mitsuhiko Dorao almost said the word "forgery" publicly.

"What does the lord mean...... It must be powerful, but also not suspicious of blindly climbing and framing, and it is necessary to pay attention to proportion, otherwise it will be too much. Hattori Hideyasu carefully repeated Hite's request.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I see! After hesitating for a moment, Mitsuhiko Tarao nodded firmly, "I may not be able to do this on my own, but my father has always known many strange people, if I can inherit this connection...... It will definitely be possible to come up with a result that satisfies the lord. ”

The focus of this sentence is on "inheritance".

Obviously, he wanted to take over his father's power in its entirety, rather than just a third of the family business.

"Your request, I will definitely report it to the lord." Regarding the ambition shown by the other party, Hattori Hidean did not move at all, did not say anything about it, and did not reveal any emotional color of likes and dislikes.

"That's a natural ......" Mitsuhiko Tarao smiled, but he was not discouraged, but suddenly changed the subject: "I don't know what my two brothers have gained, can you please reveal one or two things about Lord Xiuyasu?" ”

"There's nothing unrevealable. Those two, in the past two months, have not done much worth mentioning. Hattori Hideyasu's tone couldn't help but carry a little disdain, "But there are two things, but I want to hear from you by the way." ”

"Please advise." Mitsuhiko Dorao bowed down respectfully.

"Don't dare to be. Actually, I won't talk about it today, you will get the news sooner or later. Hattori Hidean stretched out his hand to help him, and seeing that the other party refused to accept it, he didn't insist, and continued: "Brother Ling Guangtaidian, isn't there a daughter who will turn fourteen years oldβ€”that is, your niece, this girl is beautiful and wise, gentle and virtuous, and has just won the blue eyes of Mrs. Inu, and has been sent to His Royal Highness Chiyomaru, the young master, as a maid. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Oh......" Mitsuhiko Dorao replied sullenly, his mood plummeting.

"In addition, your second brother, Guang Yadian, happened to participate in the tea party a few days ago, and talked and laughed with Mr. Yuyue Sanshiro, and was very harmonious, and was praised and said, 'Being in the countryside and knowing the etiquette, the demeanor is naturally in line with Zen Taoism'. The two parties intend to make an in-law, and Mr. Yuyue's widowed cousin may soon become the stepfamily of Guangya Palace. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Ha...... That's really ...... It's a blessing for my Taraoi family, and I feel for my two brothers...... I'm so happy, ahaha...... Aha......"

Mitsuhiko Dorao stiffened his face and laughed dryly several times.

He knew it was inappropriate, but he just couldn't control himself.

I was really aggrieved and panicked.

If you rely on your ability and prioritize the results of the task, you will lose and your skills will be inferior to others, and you will be convinced.

But now, it's clear that only Lao Tzu is a stupid and honest worker, and the two bastard brothers are all fucking bent on nepotism, what kind of shit!

Even, Dorao Mitsuhiko had a trace of resentment against Mrs. Inu and Mr. Tamakoshi Sanshiro.

Hattori Xiuan quietly watched the other party hold back his emotions for a long time, and then added: "You don't have to worry too much, these things are in the eyes of the lord, let me bring you a word." ”

These words immediately calmed down Mitsuhiko Dorao.

"Your Lordship...... What are the instructions? ”

"His old man's original words are ......" Hattori Hidean calmly took out a piece of rice paper from his arms, on which were written eight Chinese characters, which was the handwriting of Hirate Hide.

The text said: The cone is in the sac, and it comes out over time.

"Behave well, Lord Punishment is watching you."

Hattori Hideyasu, who has poor acting skills, grins as much as he can, trying to show a gesture of encouragement.
