Chapter 14 Planning
In the second year of Yonglu, the fifteenth day of the ninth month, the hour of Chen. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Owari Province, Kasugai-gun, Oki Village.
The lower class of samurai and the common people, bored with the entertainment of the night, most of them fell asleep early, just after the end of the day, the inhabitants of the village have already gone out, but they did not go to the fields, but gathered in the western fortress. Today, the lord of this place, Lord Flat, wants to feast on guests, and hires more than a dozen families to help.
After another quarter of an hour, the sound of hooves was heard in the east, and a young warrior with a long body rode his horse. The villagers saw the striking black horse from a distance and fell down on both sides of the road. Several samurai in Tucheng also hurriedly came out to greet them.
It's the tie show that came back from the race.
With Fan Xiu's temperament that likes to be quiet and not moving, it is rare to see such a young spirit, but those retainers have a natural look, and when their eyes converge, they will smile at each other.
A few months ago, His Royal Highness Heite's behavior of staying in the room of the zygote girl was really impossible to hide from people in that small earthen city. Yesterday, the doctor confirmed that the latter had been pregnant for two or three months. In addition to the surprise, Fan Xiu invited familiar colleagues to come to celebrate, and was also ready to determine the status of the zygote.
Only when the martial arts family is prosperous and the heirs are prosperous, will there be a future, and the retainers will be able to see the direction of progress more clearly. With the algorithm of this era, the tie is nineteen years old. At this age, if you have not yet married a wife and take a concubine, you are enough to be included in the ranks of older youths. In addition, if the lord is single, the people below will not be embarrassed to talk about marriageβthese careful considerations are not for outsiders.
Honshu leaned down and dismounted, greeted everyone, handed the reins to the Hattori brothers who met him, and strode into the city.
"Your Highness......" Zygote Yingying walked to the table, poured tea, and then knelt aside. The lower abdomen is slightly raised, not good for walking, and the gait is slightly staggering, and in addition to the beauty, there is a little shyness.
Fanxiu, who has always been lazy, saw the zygote today, but unconsciously straightened his waist slightly.
Being a human being in two lives is not that he has not experienced a woman, but he has no experience as a husband at all, let alone being a father. In addition to joy, I can't help but be apprehensive.
In the future, the situation of this woman and the child in her womb will depend on half of the power of Fan Xiu, and the other half will be determined by Fan Xiu's likes and dislikes.
Thinking of this, even Fanxiu, who has always thought that he was indifferent to fame and fortune, not only felt a strong sense of responsibility. Otherwise, with his idle personality, how could he spend months planning big things?
"If you're not physically fit, don't move around much. In the future, the family will find two servant women to serve them. β
"Yes......" Zygote raised her head to meet Shang Fanxiu's gaze, and lowered her head with a red face, "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness." β
Fanxiu nodded, and said, "Don't worry about the child in your womb." Although I can't treat you as a housekeeper, I will never treat my own blood and bones badly. If it is a man, he will never be stingy with the fiefdom of ten thousand stones, and if he is a daughter, he will definitely choose the heroes of the world as his son-in-law. β
"Your Highness......"
"Do you doubt that I can't get the Ten Thousand Stone Fief? Rest assured, the Oda family is prosperous and will definitely dominate the world in the future. It is not difficult for me to take this big ship to earn a national guard. β
"Hmm." Zygote didn't say anything more, just fell lightly into Fanxiu's arms and closed her eyes.
Fan Xiu soothed a few more words, sent the zygote to the bedroom, and when he turned around and walked into the hall, he saw several familiar faces.
Sasa Narumasa and his wife Aharu were sitting on the table, and Maeda Toshiya and his wife were also sitting on one side, and they were entertained by Matsui Tomokan. Today's small-scale family banquet can bring family members.
Tie Tsuki and Sasa are good friends, Sasa and Maeda are also close friends, but Tie and Maeda don't have such a good relationship, if it weren't for Sazuo leading the way, Maeda, who had just been expelled from Oda's house, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the face to come!
Sasa Chengzheng really bothered for the sake of his friends.
"You two came early."
The two on the left and right are acquaintances, and they don't have to worry too much about etiquette, so after saying hello, they sat down unceremoniously, and casually ordered Matsui Yu to go out and wait for other guests.
Zuo Zuo shook his head when he saw it and sighed lightly: "Zhizuo (the word of Fanxiu) will be a father, but this tired color has not changed at all. β
Fan Xiu didn't care, glanced at him obliquely, and didn't answer, only talking to Maeda.
"It's been a hard time in the past few months."
Maeda sighed lightly, but his expression was a little restrained, not at all as frivolous as in the past: "I just regret that I used to be rash and had hundreds of dollars, but I didn't leave any savings, but I ...... a lot of money."
Speaking of this, Zuo Zuo also frowned again and again: "I just tried the lord's tone a few days ago, but I was scolded. It's really ...... to chase away the general for the sake of a male pet."
Seeing that Zuo Zuo was about to speak disrespectfully again, Ah Chun hurriedly pulled his sleeve to stop his more disrespectful words.
"Uchizosuke (Sasa's character) is still as open-mouthed as ever." Fan Xiu shook his head helplessly, "Although we are in the limelight right now, it is also the time when we are hated, the so-called Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and the help is hidden inside, and we need to be cautious in front of outsiders." β
"Do you want to learn from that sycophant?"
"When the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no disciples, and there are many books inside, don't you know these two sentences?"
Sazo wanted to argue, but Maeda said quietly: "I think Shizuo said it well, I knew that there was today, I would have endured that breath...... Even if he scolds me a few words, he won't lose two catties of meat......"
The victim came forward to speak, and the atmosphere suddenly fell cold. Zuo Zuo regretted it a little, but the tie was still with a confident expression.
When embarrassed, Maeda's wife, Amatsu, suddenly spoke.
"Oh, I haven't seen Mrs. Hite-sama Shinna today! I don't know which girl it is? β
"Oh, it's not a martial artist, it's just the daughter of a merchant."
Zozo's wife, Ah Chun, also interjected with a smile.
"I've seen it a few times, her name is zygote, and she's a very beautiful girl!"
"Then let's go and have a look together, when men talk about business, we don't dare to get involved!"
Fangchun Yuan Ah Song, worthy of being one of the three ladies of the Warring States in the future, although he is not too old, but he seems to have the demeanor of everyone's main room, but Ah Chun, although he is the daughter of Murai Sadakatsu, is much more noble than Ah Song, and he is not as good as the former.
Seeing the two ladies leave, Honhide turned to look at Maeda.
"Again, in the past, we said that as long as you make enough merits, it is not impossible to return to the Oda family."
"It's a pity that there has been no fighting in the last four weeks......"
"It's going to be soon." Fan Xiu asserted like a magic stick.
"Could it be the Saito family? Or maybe there's something going on in Imagawa. Maeda, however, was not as excited as he had imagined.
"It's the Imagawa family." Tsuruga is accumulating strength and may send troops at any time. β
"However, I haven't heard any news from the Imagawa family calling soldiers!" Zozo couldn't help but interject.
"It's true, but the Imagawa family has recently bought a lot of supplies, especially weapons and equipment. I happened to know a businessman with sufficient knowledge, and I got the news from there. β
"The Imagawa family has already formed an alliance with Takeda and Hojo, and if they raise an army, I'm afraid the only target will be the main family."
Maeda's spirits perked up, and he couldn't help but get up, and suddenly shook his head slightly, "It's just...... My former subordinates have been torn apart, and only one of the village guards is still listening to me...... If the enemy is the Imagawa family, I'm afraid it's hard to meet any chance! β
Fan Xiu smiled lightly and said, "I and Neizang Zhu combined, we can also make two or three hundred people, and when the time comes, it will be enough to make a difference." β
Zozo nodded in agreement without hesitation.
"This ...... I can't thank you enough! β
"Don't rush to thank you just yet." Fan Xiu shook his hand indifferently, "With the strength of hundreds of people, it is absolutely impossible to resist the Imagawa army head-on, if you want to make a contribution, the only way is to make a surprise attack!" β
Maeda Sasa and the two glanced at each other, and their faces were puzzled.
"I don't even know when the enemy will move, so what's the surprise attack?"
Fanxiu looked at Zuo Zuo: "Can you remember the Chibi Huang Gai?" β
"Naturally, I remember."
"Then I'll have to worry you about explaining to Youzuo."
Maeda is not angry: "You are so sure that I must not know ......"
Fan Xiu glanced at him: "How can you have read such a Chinese book as "Three Kingdoms"? β
Zozo coughed a few times: "How is Jinzuo arranged?" β
Fanxiu motioned for the two to attach their ears and said slowly......
β¦β¦
After a long time, Zuo Zuo shook his head and sighed lightly: "If this matter is exposed, it will be ...... left."
"As samurai, how can we be greedy for life and afraid of death?" Maeda shook his head solemnly, and then turned to face Fan Xiu, "As long as this success is successful, Zhizuo will be my great benefactor in the future, what are the orders, my Maeda Toshiya will never say anything from birth to death......"
"You don't need to be born and die, as long as you don't mess up this play." Hohide patted Maeda on the shoulder.
"It's still too risky." Sasa still shook his head, "Although it is inconvenient to speak clearly to the lord, but at least I can ...... with Shibata, Niwa, and Sakuma."
"Not at all." Fan Xiu interrupted him, "Even if you don't tell them, they will still send troops with the lord at that time." Let alone...... At this time, success or failure is all related to the left side, and there will be leaks of secrets when there are too many people. β
"This ...... I didn't think about it. β
"Hmm...... Then I'll go out to greet you. β
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw people from outside the city, got up and went straight to the city gate.
