The tie barely convinced everyone that he was ready to attack Miyoshi Nagaitsu, who was closer to Kyoto, as the first step to salvage the situation.

After agreeing on this, Oda Nobutada's expression suddenly darkened: "Even if the enemy is strong, it can be dealt with after all, but the assassin who assassinated his father does not know when he will be able to subdue him!" ”

The crowd was silent.

Although the names of Sugitani Zenjubo and Igasaki Michishun were interrogated from the mouths of the captives, it was not easy to capture two high-level ninjas in this troubled world.

We have to wait until settles down and establishes an effective security department, and then we can take a carpet investigation. Otherwise, if people hide in the mountains and old forests, what can you do?

In this regard, Ikeda Hengxing gritted his teeth, while Hikawa Hinohide and Takikawa Kazuyi stopped talking.

At this time, Ashikaga Yoshiaki sent Settsu Harumon to inform again: "Ladies and gentlemen, the culprit of the assassination of Oda Danmasa has decided that it is Miyoshi Nagaitsu, what do you think?" ”

Ikeda Hengxing exploded on the spot: "What do you mean? Did the shogunate decide if he wanted to? Do you think it's fun to pretend to be a family drinker? ”

Oda Nobutada, who was a little calmer, hurriedly got up and stopped Ikeda, but his face was not very good-looking, and he turned his head sideways to Settsu Harimon and asked: "The assassins of my father are the two ninjas of Sugitani Zenjubo and Igasaki Michijun, which is well known. As for who the culprit is, there is no clue so far, and I am stupid, I don't know what the shogunate's intention is, please explain it in detail! ”

Pingshou Fuxiu, who was standing on the side, sighed lightly and asked quietly, "Is this what Lord Gongfang meant?" He seemed to have anticipated this, and he was not the slightest surprised.

The old dragon bell's Settsu Harumon was exhausted, his expression was solemn, and he didn't care about the strong attitude of Ikeda Hengxing and Oda Nobutada, and nodded slowly when he heard the flat hand Tsunohide speak: "That's right, that's exactly what Gongfang-sama meant." He believed that the culprit of the assassination of Oda Danmasa must be one of Asakura, Miyoshi, and Rokkaku. Asakura's strength is too strong, and the hexagonal remnants are too weak, and only Miyoshi Changyi is the most suitable candidate. ”

"What kind of bizarre argument is this? If you're alone, it's better to say, is the shogun of the shogunate ready to rule the world like this? Ikeda was furious and grabbed Settsu Harimon by the collar and made a gesture to throw his fist.

Oda Nobutada stretched out his hand and was also freed. The thirteen-year-old boy is not yet mature, and his small arms and legs can stop the adult general.

Settsu Harumon himself was not afraid, but a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Hiratii and Takigawa Kazuyi smiled wryly at the same time, looked at each other for a moment, agreed through eye contact, and then took two steps forward together, grabbed one of Ikeda's arms on the left and right, and forcibly pulled him down.

"Ikeda-sama, please calm down! Although this decision was made in the interests of the shogunate, it was also beneficial to the Oda family. The tie tried to convince.

"Really?" Ikeda Hengxing calmed down a little and was no longer impulsive, but with a sneer on his face that refused to give in, "Draw the middle of the house...... Just now, Lord Gongfang appointed you to become a direct minister of the shogunate! I can accept the choice of 'west first and then north', but the question of who is the culprit is ...... Please forgive me, as a retainer of Oda, I will not give up on tracking down the real culprit! ”

Hearing this, Tieshou Fanxiu was stunned and didn't know how to reply.

Seeing this, Takigawa Kazuyi gave up communication with Ikeda, turned to Oda Nobutada, and explained: "Young Master, please Mingjian, of course, we will never stop the pursuit of Sugitani Zenjubo and Igasaki Michijun, but we also need to have an explanation to the outside world as soon as possible, and we can't let outsiders know that the Oda family is powerless to take revenge." ”

“…… That's right! Oda Nobutada bit his lip, his eyes wavered, hesitated a few times, and finally nodded reluctantly, "Ikeda-sama, please calm down, too!" I think the shogunate's suggestion is worth considering. Even if we have different opinions, how can we be angry with Lord Settsu Harumon? He's just a talker. ”

Ikeda could only let go of his hand and slowly took two steps back, but he still did not apologize to Settsu Harimon, and he did not stop cursing and whispering "ridiculous and shameless" words.

Hisho Tsunoshi is still watching from the sidelines, since Ikeda Hengxing has said such things, and Oda Nobutada has not stopped him, so why bother to be bored?

Takigawa Kazuyi's eyes rolled, and he looked back and forth between Hirate and Oda a few times, a smile of incomprehensible meaning appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he gathered his mind and bowed to Settsu Harumon: "My family's Ikeda-sama was a little angry for a while, and I will make amends to you on his behalf, I hope you don't take it to heart." ”

"Takigawa-sama doesn't have to be like this." I saw that Settsu Qingmen was not in a hurry, slowly straightened his clothes, raised his head slightly, looked at the sky, and showed a transcendent posture of insight into everything, "The old decay has passed the age of the sixtieth year, what have you not seen?" Oda Bullet is in a big disaster, and it's normal for you to lose your temper, but listen to the old man's advice, life always has to go on! Whether it's as high-spirited as a goshawk or as a pheasant begging for food......"

"In terms of the experience of begging in a hurry, it is true that your family is richer, and we should indeed study hard." Ikeda still does not forget the irony of yin and yang.

At this moment, even Oda Nobutada felt that he was a little too much.

Even if you used to run amok with your relationship with Nobunaga's brothers, it didn't come to this point, right? First of all, he was not inferior to the shogunate, and then he ridiculed the tie and the show, which was simply an enemy on all sides.

It can only be understood that the pressure has been too much recently, and it is about to drive him crazy.

But that's not a reason to talk so nonsense.

Oda Nobutada hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind to sink his face and scolded, "Ikeda-sama, please calm down! In such an urgent moment, don't be rash! ”

“…… It's "Ikeda Hengxing's expression changed several times in a row, and finally he lowered his head expressionlessly, "The subordinates have lost their temper, please ...... No, please forgive me. ”

The tone was still very stiff and unconvinced, but he finally softened and didn't embarrass Oda Nobutada.

Settsu Harumon, who was ridiculed over there, was not angry, but laughed when he saw this: "Hahaha...... Actually, Ikeda-sama is right! We, the old courtiers of the shogunate, are indeed accustomed to begging in a hurry! An old man who is about to die, are you still afraid of what people say? Ikeda-sama may think that we shogunates are cowardly and incompetent, right? Maybe you think that the Oda family can rely on the sword in their hand to turn the situation back? Old decay advises, don't think that manpower can beat luck! Over the years, there have been too many heroes who have come and gone in the world and think they are chess players, but in my opinion, they are all just pawns of destiny! ”

"You!" Ikeda Hengxing looked at each other angrily, glanced at Nobutaka before reining in his temper, and then spat disdainfully: "Nonsense, it's not worth it!" ”

Takigawa Kazuyi nodded thoughtfully.

Oda Nobutada had an expression of "I can't digest the amount of information I can't digest", and tried his best to pretend to be calm but couldn't pretend to be anything.

Pingshou Tsuki, who had been watching for a long time, quietly spoke: "Lord Settsu, if you are so wild and uninhibited today, is it because you are ready to retire?" ”

"Haha...... The tie is really worthy of its name. Settsu Harumon, who had white hair, burst into laughter again, "That's right, Lord Gongkata thinks I'm a pro-Oda faction, and now that Oda is weak, it's no longer useful, and I let other colleagues ridicule and insult me, and Lord Gongkai doesn't stop me." And the people of the Oda family, with the exception of Danmasa-sama (Nobunaga), who had already gone to the Imperial Palace, did not treat me as an old friend at all. Unexpectedly, I worked all my life for the revival of the Ashikaga family, and I finally had some signs of it, but I was recognized as a retainer with ulterior motives...... If neither side is pleased, what good is it to stay here? This will be the last time I will carry out the affairs of the shogunate, so let's find a random temple and the ancient Buddha...... Anyway, I'm over the age of six, and my only son has died young, so I don't have much hope for the rest of my life......"

Seeing that this person's self-unleashing emotions were rising higher and higher, even Ikeda Hengxing began to feel that something was wrong.

The Settsu Harumon looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, suddenly in pain, and then angrily, and after a while, suddenly fell to the ground, motionless.

Everyone hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, only to know that he was completely lifeless.

Pingshou Fanxiu couldn't help but shake his head, and secretly sighed that being in Vanity Fair, pulling a hair and moving his whole body, is indeed "people in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves".
