Next, Hirate was placed on the mountainside of Mt. Sawa in a secluded house. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info is in charge of the reception,It's another retainer of Kenmasa Asai.,Anyangji Nobuyo.。 And Kenmasa Asai walked away under the pretext. After all, he is a dignified young master of shallow wells, and he needs to take care of etiquette.

Before arriving, I had already heard clearly, and the three closest people to Kenmasa Asai were Naokyo Endo, Anyoji Jingshi, and Asai Genfanliang. Endo was in charge of military command, Asai Genban was in charge of internal affairs, and Anyoji was an important minister in foreign affairs.

The two sides sat down, and Anyang Temple couldn't wait to read out the opening remarks:

"Mamoru Owari (Oda Nobunaga) is far away in the East China Sea, but he misses the Asai family, which is really admirable."

"Why should Lord Anyangji be so polite?" Fanxiu smiled lightly, then straightened up, his face was solemn, and his words were righteous, "The samurai family is all loyal to the imperial court and the shogunate, fighting for the righteousness of the world, although they are thousands of miles apart, their ethics are the same, and the family is just abiding by their duties, so why praise it?" ”

"The high righteousness of the Hiteden Hall is high-minded, and it makes people ashamed of themselves." Anyang Temple was stunned and nodded, "If all the martial artists in the world are as the Heishou Hall says, why worry about the troubled times?" ”

Fanxiu humbly sighed twice, and then sighed:

"It's a pity that today's thieves are in charge, such as Mino Saito...... It's really powerless for my generation. ”

"yes!" Anyangji Temple also sighed with emotion, "The heroic and powerful with ill intentions, how can it be more than the Saito family?" Even the century-old famous family, the shogunate stone pillar, also has a deep heart. ”

How about getting to the point so quickly?

Fanxiu's heart tightened, and his face was puzzled:

"Is that really the case?"

"Minami Omi Rokkaku ......" Anyangji Temple only said a few words, then stopped and looked straight at Fanxiu.

And so it was.

Fang Cai negotiated with Asai Kenmasa, and basically determined Asai's position of assisting Oda in attacking Saito, and now what needs to be talked about is the matter of the Asai family's old enemy Rokkaku, and it is Oda's turn to make a commitment.

"However, Asai and Rokkaku are related by in-laws......"

Only a year or two ago, Asai succumbed to Rokkaku, and the word "Xian" in Asai Kenmasa's name was given by Rokkaku Yoshigen, his main wife, who was also the daughter of the old Hirai Dingwu of the Rokkaku family.

"The strength is invincible, and in desperation, the only way to stoop to the thief is indeed a shame for my family." Anyangji said this, and a complicated expression appeared on his face, "However, the contempt has already made up his mind......

Make up your mind? Are you determined to break with the Hexagon, or are you determined to send your wife back?

With the memory of Fanxiu and later generations, Kenmasa Asai finally abandoned the character Xian and changed his name

"Bizen-sama is truly a man of loyalty."

Fanxiu complimented casually, and Anyang Temple also owed a salute in return.

"In recent years, the Rokkaku family has disrespected the shogunate, and has repeatedly used swords and soldiers, and even ......"

"How?"

"It is rumored that Rokkaku also colluded with the traitor Saito Yoshiryu......"

Hexagon combined with Saito?

That's not good news for Owari.

Anyangji Jingshi threw out this message, which implied that the extermination of Rokkaku was not just a matter of Asai and was closely related to Oda's interests.

"Sure enough, like gathers like."

"Then what does Your Highness mean ......"

"The family's heart of support has never wavered, and there is no reason to compromise with the traitors who commit rebellion."

Fanxiu knew the history of the later generations, there must be a battle between Oda and Rokkaku, yes and there was no taboo, empty promises, but Anyangji Temple Jingshi thought that Oda Nobunaga's instructions, the color of joy, overflowing.

So the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves and talked with each other. In the evening, he was invited to a dinner party until midnight. The period is inevitably staggered.

It is still Asai Kenmasa's retainers who need to be dealt with, and it is obvious from his words that Anyangji Nobuyo is most keen on forming an alliance with Oda, and Asai Genban is neutral, but Endo Naokei has some doubts.

Fanxiu secretly tested Endo's tone, but he only felt that the other party was thoughtful, and it was not words that could impress.

After the whole night, even if it was a strong fight, there was not much gain in the end.

But then again, Kenmasa Asai himself had already made up his mind to unite with Oda to fight against Rokkaku, and what really needed to be paid attention to was the important ministers whose attitudes were unknown to Haibei Tsunade and Akao Kiyotsuna.

Since Shangluo, he has not had to rest, and he has long been exhausted, so he is full of thoughts and sleeps deeply, and as for the beautiful maid specially sent by the Asai family to dress up, he has no time to pay attention to it for the time being.

********************************

When I woke up, it was already dawn.

The day...... It seems that I want to see Haibei Tsunade and Akao Kiyotsuna.

Fanxiu thought so, got up to tidy up his clothes, and pushed the door out.

The two maids in the hall hurriedly saluted Fanxiu, and before they could reply, a visitor suddenly appeared at the door.

The middle-aged samurai in the blue shirt has a long and burly figure, but his movements are very careful.

"Tie Hall, old man Akao Kiyotsuna."

The comer entered the door lightly, and explained his intention.

Should he come too early, or should he get up too late?

After being embarrassed for a moment, he immediately adjusted his posture and sat down opposite Akawei Kiyotsuna, and at the same time held back the two maids.

"Your Excellency is still in the prime of life, why should you say that you are old?"

"Oh? The old man is not confused, he is indeed a few years older, even if he relies on the old and sells the old, it can be regarded as some capital! ”

Akao Kiyotsuna is the most respected minister of the Asai family.,In the words,Although it's not elegant.,But it's free and friendly temperament.。

"The Red Tail Hall is in full bloom in spring and autumn, and it should be the year of meritorious service." Fanxiu laughed at himself, "At least it won't be like an ignorant teenager like me, greedy for spring, as for delaying the morning ......"

Akawei couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

"It's hard to know in spring, how can it be a person in the Pingshou Palace?"

"However, didn't the Akao Hall come to Mt. Sawa early in the morning, compared to it, it's really ......"

"Oh...... In order to repay the wish for the little girl, I disturbed the flat hall along the way. ”

"Ling Yan ......"

"It's a young girl under the next, called Aju, since she was born, her body is very weak, so every month Duhu goes to Omi Toshimanji Temple to make a vow......"

When it comes to young girls, Akao Kiyotsuna can't help but show a gloomy look.

"Jiren has his own nature." Fanxiu said comfortingly.

"Xie Jun Jiyan." Akawei sighed lightly, and then turned to smile again, "Showing this child's posture really makes Heishou Den smile." ”

"How can the poor son not be a husband, the Red Tail Hall is really a true temperament." Pan Xiufu complimented him again before getting up.

So, is it finally time to get to the point?

Fanxiu was about to speak, ready to repeat what he had said with Anyang Temple, but Akao Kiyotsuna spoke first.

"I've already met the young master before I came. Next...... He has always been in favor of an alliance with Oda. ”

As soon as he said it, it was so direct.

Before he could react, Akao said:

"The Rokkaku clan has always been at odds with Asai, and Saito is also Oda's old enemy, so the so-called distant and close attacks, the two join forces, which is a matter of course."

Fanxiu didn't know how to respond. The Anyang Temple Jingshi I saw yesterday is a veritable diplomatic monk who has to think carefully about every word, but this Akao Kiyotsuna is too straightforward.

Such a character can be regarded as unique.

Fanxiu bowed slightly.

"The Akao Hall is high, and I think it is also deep below. Rokkaku Yoshiken is already old, Saito Yoshiryu is terminally ill, and their children are all incompetent, and in a few years, the East China Sea and Omi will be the world of Oda and Asai. ”

Akawei moved slightly, and then shook his head:

"It's a pity that not everyone in the Asai clan has such insight."

"Akao Hall means ......"

"Haibei people may not agree with this move." Akao raised his head and said, "After all, there is still the Imagawa family in the East China Sea who is the enemy of the noble family...... If your family doesn't have a definite commitment, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the people of Haibei in the future. ”

If you're just worried about that, that's fine.

Fanxiu chuckled: "The first bow in the East China Sea is taken, but there are hidden dangers buried deeply." ”

"Oh? May the temple of peace teach. ”

"Indulging in elegance is not a good thing for the samurai. Moreover, Imagawa has not had a major war for nearly ten years, and I am afraid that the strength of the heir will not be able to get enough exercise. ”

"This ......" Akawei looked suspicious.

"Don't you see the Ouchi family in the past?"

Ouchi, Imagawa, and Asakura were the three most elegant and closest to the public family in the Warring States Period, and they were all once prosperous and powerful. However, at the moment, Ouchi has declined, and the changes in Imagawa are also within the year, and as for Asakura, it has only been more than ten years.

"The Hisho Hall is indeed high, but I am afraid that the words of guessing will not convince the public."

"Then ......," Fanxiu muttered twice, "it is better to make such an agreement, if within three years, Oda cannot cope with the invasion of Imagawa on the Eastern Front, and today's events will be regarded as non-existent." ”

With this sentence, the Asai family is equivalent to no risk at all, but with the strength of the Imagawa family, can Oda have an advantage in three years?

Akawei couldn't help but dumbfound, stared at Fanxiu a few times, shook his head incredulously, and sighed.

"Since the Pingshou Hall has such strength, then the family naturally has nothing to say."

After a while, he said:

"The retainers also have such energy, so what is the demeanor of Owari Mamoru ? Oda's rise is indeed not accidental. ”

"It's really such a flashy person below, the military and politics have nothing to do, and they can only bluff people!"

Akao also smiled: "The lake view near the river is very interesting, and the Heite Hall will not waste this trip." ”

After getting down to business, we started talking about the rest of the story.

"Bizen-sama, didn't you invite Your Excellency to hunt?"

Akawei Kiyotsuna stroked his beard and smiled,

"Hunting is a thing for their young people. If there is Yaxing in the flat hall, you might as well accompany the old man to visit the Minman Temple. ”

Before you are twenty years old, you are no longer considered a young person? Fanxiu thought so, but still smiled on his face: "Then there will be Lao Chiwei Hall to lead the way." ”

………………

Located in the east of Sawayama Castle, Toshimanji Temple is one of the largest temples in Kita-Omi, and in addition to serving the gods and Buddhas, it also receives people from all over the world.

Since it was the daughter of Akao Kiyotsuna who came here to make a vow, it was natural to set aside an area for the monks in the temple to chant and pray for blessings.

When he went out, Akao Kiyotsuna had five or six guards around him, so Fanxiu also brought Marume Nagae and Kawada Nagakin.

Walking to the temple, the monks led to a side hall, and suddenly there was a sound of chanting. Immediately two maids came out.

"Where's Shinbei?" Kiyotsuna Akao asked. The new guard in his mouth is his son Akao new guard Qingdong.

"Childe was called on a safari by the adults of Sawa Mountain Castle." One replied.

Akawei Kiyozuna frowned, and smiled awkwardly at Fanxiu: "This unsuccessful rebel only knows how to play and have fun all day long......"

"The way of the bow and horse is the foundation of the samurai, and hunting can't just be regarded as entertainment."

Akawei Kiyotsuna was noncommittal, and stretched out his hand to invite Fanxiu to enter. With such a solemn position, it is naturally more appropriate for the maids and retainers to stay outside.

Outside the hall is thirty or forty monks chanting in unison, an old monk with white hair and beard sitting alone in the middle of the hall, and there is a basket bed beside him, presumably it is the daughter of Akaio Kiyozuna, and there is no sound for a long time, probably asleep.

After entering the door, after waiting for only half a quarter of an hour, the old monk opened his eyes and silently recited a Buddhist verse.

Akao Kiyotsuna was impatient and stepped forward.

"Master, I don't know ...... little girl"

"Ling Qianjin's life is shocking but not dangerous. After three tribulations, the blessing is coming, and Ze is being shaded by the world and future generations. ”

"So now, it's just the first calamity?"

"Exactly. Miss Aju's future fate was from the East at that time. ”

……

Fanxiu listened to the two answers, and only felt a little funny. This so-called eminent monk speaks like a deceitful stick on the street.

When he was slandering, he suddenly felt a gaze coming.

Looking up, I only felt that the old monk's eyes were pure and transparent, without any turbidity, and I couldn't help but put away a little contempt.

"This is a guest who has come here." Kiyotsuna Akao doesn't seem to want to reveal Fanxiu's identity.

The old monk didn't hear it, he still stared at Fanxiu, and then suddenly bowed down and saluted Fanxiu:

"The poor monk implored the benefactor to be kind to Buddhism in the future."

This sentence has no beginning and no end, and Fanxiu was puzzled, but he didn't dare to ignore it completely. Outside the Liuhe, regardless of existence, the ghosts and gods say, how do you know what to believe in?

"What the master said, I will definitely take it to heart."

Fanxiu bowed in return, and then raised his head, there was already some hesitation in Akawei Kiyotsuna's eyes.

"I wonder what the master saw?"

Akawei couldn't help but ask.

The old monk shook his head slightly, folded his hands, closed his eyes and stroked the rosary.

"This traveling lord may be the opportunity for His Highness Akawei."

Although the answer is not the question, it is at least meaningful.

A move made Akao Kiyotsuna and his hands Fanxiu have their own thoughts, and they actually calmed down for a while.

After a moment of silence, I suddenly heard the cry of a baby, and it turned out to be Kiyotsuna's daughter who woke up.

Akawei hurriedly stepped forward and picked up his daughter.

The monk hadn't noticed anything yet, but Fanxiu could hardly help laughing.

This action of holding his daughter is really funny, Akao Kiyotsunahei stretched out his arms and held the baby's head and calves respectively, as if holding a box.

But then again, the men of this era, and they are from a martial arts family, have nothing to do with them.

The baby's hands and feet ached, and the cry became louder.

Akawei Kiyotsuna was at a loss, raised his head and wanted to summon the maid in, and then looked at the old monk, only feeling that it was inappropriate.

The monk, who had always been calm and composed, also looked embarrassed and reached out to take the child from Akao's hand, but the situation did not change in the slightest.

The Red Tail family doesn't uphold the family style, and it's just a baby girl who can't even speak......

Fanxiu couldn't help but step forward and take the girl from Chiwei's hand.

"Let me do it."

Holding the baby, let her sit on her left hand, wrap her right hand around her shoulder, and gently pat her on the back.

Before long, the crying stopped, and the baby girl's eyes widened and she stared curiously at the person in front of her.

"This lord is from the East?"

The old monk asked suddenly.

Fanxiu was slightly surprised.

Owari is naturally oriental compared to Omi.

The so-called fate method refers to the draw pan show?

I really can't afford this rhetoric......

PS1: The trip to Shangluo is over.

PS2: It's been a busy time lately.

PS3: The network is very poor these days, and this chapter was sent by me borrowing someone else's machine, and it may not be so convenient in the future.
