In the middle of the wilderness, there were suddenly hundreds of more people, and among them there were dozens of young people with excessive enthusiasm, so the prey and the venue were not enough. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Those who have no intention of competing here are also happy. With two retainers, he shot less than forty bows and arrows in total, hunted a few pheasants and hares, and called it a day. And Xiu'an, who was hunting with Keiji, has never been seen.

When it was dark and night, Fan Xiu felt a little uneasy, and Xiaoping Tai was also worried, so he walked out of the tent.

The guards on duty at night were still Maeda Toshiie's subordinates, and they only said hello and let Honhide go out freely.

In the wilderness, it was futile to search rashly, so I only rode a horse and carried a torch near the hunting ground, slowly expanding the search area.

In the second half of the night, I finally saw a figure.

The young man, who called himself Keijiro, carried a man who was slightly taller than himself, and walked with difficulty in the direction of the camp.

Fan Xiu immediately drove forward.

When I got closer, the person on Keijiro's back seemed to be Hattori Koto Taihidean.

Xiu'an's left leg was hit by an arrow, I don't know how deep it is, although it has been bandaged, but the blood still can't stop flowing out, and then look at his face, Huo Ran is pale.

Looking at this situation, could it be that the major arteries have been injured?

Xiao Pingtai's face was startled, and he hurriedly started to help Xiao Fujitai onto the horse. Even if Fan Xiu has some concerns, he can only put human life first.

Keijiro was stunned for a moment, and then followed.

On the Omi Plain, there are very few large areas of mountains and forests, and fierce beasts such as jackals, tigers and leopards are even more rare, so Akikari only brought out two doctors, and they were in Nobunaga's tent.

Fortunately, this highness was in high spirits tonight, and after midnight, he was still playing shogi with the little surname, so he finally avoided the trouble of waking him up. Honshu only said that the retainer was "injured by mistake", and Nobunaga, who was in the middle of the battle, didn't care, and waved his hand to order the doctor to go.

The two medical officers hurried for a long time to stop the bleeding, saying that it was fine, but the arrow was too deep into the flesh to be pulled out immediately, and must be moved to the city as soon as possible.

Fan Xiu thought for a moment and decided to ask the young man.

"How did he get hurt?"

Keiji's face darkened.

"My lord, Hattoriden was wounded by my bow and arrow."

Xiao Pingtai, who was standing on the side, flashed a fierce look in his eyes, but he didn't speak.

"Why did you shoot him?"

Fan Xiu held back his expression and his face was solemn.

"Under ...... It is aimed at the wakicha on the waist of Hattoriden...... It's just a missight ......."

Before the words fell, Keiji had already fallen to the ground, kneeling down.

"Why did you shoot him? If it's another inch or two, I won't let it go......" Koheita finally couldn't help but roar, and only took out the sharpest words.

Fan Xiu glanced at him, and Xiaoping Taicai bowed his head, his face still resentful.

"It's because of the ridicule ...... below"

Keiji slurred, his voice getting lower and lower.

In fact, there is no need to explain, and it is completely possible to think of the situation at that time. Kotota is estimated to be inferior in skills, and Keiji is a poisonous tongue......

After a while, Keiji suddenly raised his head.

"This matter has nothing to do with the Takigawa family, and I am willing to apologize for my seppuku!"

What a stunned young man...... Reckless, but still clever and responsible. This is very much in line with the legendary Wonderman of later generations.

Seeing that Xiao Fujita was fine, Fan Xiu didn't have much anger

Then it's best to keep the matter down as much as possible. Oda Nobunaga strictly forbade his retainers to fight privately, and if the matter spread, I am afraid that they will indiscriminately fight fifty boards each, and they will also offend the Takigawa family for no reason.

The first is to let Xiaoping take his younger brother back to the city to heal his injuries with peace of mind.

Then he reassured the two medical officers, and stuffed each of them with a tael of silver.

And the Takigawa family is here......

"Nihimaemon!" Fan Xiu summoned Masuda Nagamori, "You are also from the Omi clan, I think you should know Takigawa Hall, right?" ”

"There is only one side."

"That's enough. You take this child to Takigawa's house first, and I will visit you later. ”

Try to make the big things small, don't cause trouble - these subtexts can only be contained in the eyes.

"Yes!"

As for the guards outside the door, they can only go to Maeda Toshi's house, who is on duty at night, and ask him to restrain his subordinates and not chew the root of their tongues. However, the results are hard to expect.

At this time, it was the second half of the night, and when the people around him walked away, Fan Xiu was lying on the cloth mat in the tent. After a while, he fell into a deep sleep.

When I woke up, I only listened to a commotion outside.

Standing up, I looked up, but the sky was not completely bright, only like dawn.

Who is making the noise?

was about to go out, but saw Masuda Nagamori hurrying in.

"Your Highness, it's the Takigawa Hall who came to apologize......

Come to your door to apologize?

Fan Xiu only felt that his brain suddenly short-circuited.

While speaking, I saw the two of them appear behind Masuda, and it was Takigawa Kazuki who took the lead.

After Yiyi entered the door, he didn't say a word, and bowed down and gave a big gift to Fan Xiu.

"Discipline is not strict under the subordinates, indulge the juniors, please forgive me in the Pingshou Palace!"

Fanxiu was helpless, and could only return to the past with the same etiquette.

"How dare you be such a big gift to the Takigawa Palace?"

As he spoke, he tried his best to make a look of trepidation and sincerity on his face.

"This evil beast has not yet been subdued, it is so ridiculous, it has shot and wounded the general under the command of the lord, if it is not punished, it will become a scourge." This time it was the strong man behind Takigawa Ichiyi who spoke, and his tone fell heavily on the words "not yet Yuanfu" and "general", which was not so much an apology as a sarcasm.

Fan Xiu was originally worried, but after listening to this sarcasm, he found the way and relaxed a little. So he smiled instead, and owed to the strong man:

"Keijiro is born with divine power, and he has such courage before he is in Yuanfu, and he will definitely become a famous general of the three armies of Yongguan one day. As for the battle of juvenile spirit, it is really not enough to worry about. ”

Takigawa Kazuyi raised his head and sighed, his face full of remorse.

"This kid does have some qualifications, but he lacks a famous teacher. Thinking about it, I'm really sorry for the clan brother who went to the fairy! ”

Honxiu also appropriately expressed a little surprise and sorrow.

"Orphans of martyrs?"

"Brother of the clan, he died in a peaceful battle, and he was only twelve or thirteen years old in the next year, and he really didn't know how to teach his juniors......"

"Takigawa has countless loyal martyrs, which is really admirable."

"I really can't afford to be praised by the Tieshou Palace, I think about ...... back then"

It's just a few words, and Takigawa Peace has digressed for thousands of miles, constantly remembering the loyal ministers and good generals of all dynasties. The strong man behind Yiyi was stunned and puzzled.

In less than half an hour, Takikawa changed his words, saying that many famous generals died at the hands of their own people because of the suspicion of the lord, which was the biggest tragedy.

After staying for a while, Takigawa Kazuki suddenly turned solemn and shouted loudly at Fan Xiu:

"That's all I have to say, I'm going to say goodbye!"

Then he brushed his sleeves and left.

It is conceivable that he must want others to know the news that "Takikawa and the draw are not on good terms".

Fan Xiu smiled bitterly twice and shook his head.

I only slept for an hour all night, and then I had a cautious conversation with Takigawa Kazuki, and I still had a faint headache, but it was already dawn, and it wasn't in my own home, so don't be greedy for pillows, go out and blow the morning breeze.

So I got up and went out, but I happened to see Maeda Toshiya coming over, so I walked with him.

The latter looked apologetic: "I was about to talk to you, but I can't help it...... When so many people saw it, His Highness could only say it directly when he asked...... It's just the hand of that kid from the Takikawa family, why do you want to hide it for him? ”

Fan Xiu could only smile and answer the question: "Your Highness didn't do anything to that kid, did you?" ”

"Not really, it's a child after all!" Maeda shook his head, and then a gloating expression appeared on his face, "But I called Takigawa Kazuyi over and scolded him, it's really miserable!" ”

Takigawa was born in Omi, and he didn't often socialize with the locals, but he was quite used by Nobunaga, and it is said that he also served as a "mezuke" job to monitor the words and deeds of the samurai in the territory, so it is natural to be hated, but Maeda Toshiya is a stunned young man......

"Do you have any old grudges with Takigawa Temple?"

Fan Xiu asked casually.

"You still call him 'Takigawa Temple'?" Maeda looked quite dissatisfied, "His people have injured your people!" If you want revenge, just look for me......"

……

After two or three sentences, he walked to the side of another military tent.

"Huh...... It's finally over.,I'm going to catch up on sleep.,And then I'm going to ask Uchizosuke to come out and change shifts......" Once Maeda's mouth is opened, it's hard to close it again, "I have to watch the door for a good hunting opportunity, it's really unfair......"

"Outside of Liuhe, regardless of existence, it is better to be cautious!"

As soon as I heard this, I knew that it was Sazo Chengzheng. He first went out with a smile, and when he saw Fan Xiu, his expression was stunned.

"Very left...... Although it is the style of the ancient benevolent people to be strict with oneself and lenient with others, it is not to be neglected to restrain the subordinates! ”

"You've heard that, too? Spread so fast? Fan Xiu frowned slightly.

"The guards basically know it, His Royal Highness personally called Takigawa Yiyi to the tent to reprimand, how can he hide it?" Maeda also interjected.

Fan Xiu sighed lightly and couldn't help but shake his head.

………………

Nobunaga went to Fan Xiu to interrogate the matter, but after all, it was the victim's side, although he also received a few reprimands, but it was far from the level of scolding, and finally gave an order, Tie Tsuyo Xiu was grounded for one month, and returned to the territory to reflect, and Takigawa Yiyi was three months, and he was not allowed to go out without being recruited. However, the knowledge and deeds of the two have not been reduced.

Fan Xiu had no interest in hunting, so he simply took the order back to the city.

Originally, the idea of introducing Mori Shinsuke as a direct minister had to be abandoned.

Tomokan went to the field to inspect the autumn harvest, leaving only the Hattori brothers at home. Xiu'an was still recuperating from his injuries, but when he saw Fan Xiu returning to the city, he immediately knelt on the ground, and Chun'an also knelt down.

"If you don't give up your brother, please ask Your Highness to take back his knowledge and deeds and give words!"

What's going on?

Fan Xiu didn't answer, just looked at Chun'an.

"If it weren't for the struggle of will, His Highness would not ......"

"The young man is just vindictive, and it's not his fault, besides, don't I lose nothing? Grounded for a month, it's time to rest! ”

"The ...... of the palace" Chun'an bowed down again, not knowing what to say.

"But if there is no punishment, it is too unseemly......" Honhideki said slowly, and the Hattori brothers' expressions were all tense.

"It's all up to Your Highness." It was Chun'an who reacted first and bowed down to answer. Xiu'an also hurriedly expressed his obedience to the order, but his face was just dazed.

"There is no reason for the word that has been given to be taken back again...... The twenty pieces of money will be written down for you for the time being, when you will be rewarded for meritorious service, and then return to your name...... Let Xiaoping take care of these twenty times first! ”

"Your Highness......" Chun'an couldn't help but be stunned.

In this case, it was only nominally punished for Hideyasu alone, and for the Hattori brothers, the commander-in-chief did not decrease.

Although Koto is a little frizzy, Koheita's ability and loyalty are satisfactory, and even if you don't consider the merits of Tsubashima, such a retainer is worth paying attention to.

Fan Xiu was about to say a few more words, but he saw Matsui Yukan also enter the door.

"Your Highness, I just heard the news from Shiga Castle, and it seems that Kuhide Hall has sent an envoy to the Takigawa family, wanting to accept Keijiro who succeeded him as a righteous son and inherit the family business......"
