Chapter 161: Rebellion

The four of them, with their respective guards, walked quickly to the tower of Nancheng City. I saw that under the doorway, several samurai of the Asahina family who maintained order were arguing with the four heralds of the Okabe family. The four heralds of the Okabe family seemed to be clamoring to meet the commanders at once, and the huge movement had already attracted many people to surround them. Among them, a few of the commanders' guards seemed to be going back to report.

Chao Binatai raised his eyebrows, but it was not convenient to stop the people, so he walked straight to the doorway. When those people saw that Asahinai Taichao was coming, instead of relenting, they made a louder noise.

"There is an order in the Governor's Hall to be passed on to several His Highnesses and Lords of the main family! Why are you holding us back? The leader shouted.

"Could it be that His Royal Highness Asahina has done something unfortunate, for fear of being known!" Another shouted loudly.

"Let's go inside! Let's get inside! Several people pushed and shoved the samurai of the Asahina family, and at the same time shouted, "Obstruct the herald, the Asahina family is going to rebel!" ”

"Hugh wants to spew blood!" Asahina Taehyung was the first to roar angrily, "I think it's your Okabe family who is plotting against you!" You say, what's the matter with the herald sent to my little brother! ”

Yuqiu's face tightened, and he wanted to hold his foolish big brother, but he was already a step too late. He inadvertently leaked information that the three of them had begun to suspect the Okabe family. That's a terrible thing.

Sure enough, after a moment of stunned, the four heralds quickly exchanged glances, apparently reaching some kind of consensus.

"I don't know how many people came, but what orders did His Highness Okabe have?" Towards Binaithai straight to the point.

"At the behest of His Highness, I asked to see several adults of the lord's family, and I hope that His Royal Highness Hinai will inform him on his behalf." A few heralds said without humility or arrogance.

"Your Excellency," Sena said with a smile, "If there's anything going on, we'll just report it on your behalf, and you don't need to make a trip yourself." Sena's seemingly enthusiastic words were actually asking a few heralds to honestly explain the message they were going to deliver.

"How dare you bother a few highnesses!" The herald also played Tai Chi, "The horse leather shroud in the palace of the family governor, the army is unstable, and several highnesses are burdened with heavy responsibilities, how dare they bother your highnesses." ”

While the two sides were arguing, the commanders of several units directly under the central government also rushed to the scene. The scene suddenly became a little awkward, and Sena and the others were embarrassed to stop a few more heralds. It seems that the herald made a big fuss just now, but it did have an effect, attracting several commanders of the main family.

"Adults!" As soon as they saw that the target was coming, several heralds changed their performance and knelt down without saying a word. The leader took out a scroll from his bosom and held it respectfully in his hand.

"What is this?" Asahina asked warily.

However, several heralds ignored him, still respectfully holding the scroll in their hands, facing the direction of the commanders, "Ladies and gentlemen, please look. Several commanders were stunned for a moment and stepped forward. Yu Qiuping and Sena Shijun couldn't stop them, so they had to let them go. One of the commanders reached out and picked up the scroll.

"This is the last order of the Governor's Palace!" The moment the commander took the scroll, the herald suddenly spoke aloud. Yuqiu and the four of them were shocked, but it was too late to stop them.

The commander was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the scroll. Several other commanders around him also leaned over to watch, but they all froze in place. After a moment's pause, they held the scroll closer and examined it carefully. After a while, they looked at each other again and nodded slightly in disbelief.

"It's the notes of the Governor's Palace, there's nothing wrong...", a few people murmured in disbelief, "How did this scroll get to you?" ”

"When the Governor's Hall first arrived in Minghai City, he handed over this scroll to His Royal Highness." The herald said with tears in his eyes: "I instructed, don't open it unless there is an accident." If something unexpected happens and you can't contact him, open the scroll immediately and check it, and it contains his instructions... Who would have thought that this was the last order of the Governor's Palace..."

"What the hell." Yu Qiuping secretly slandered to himself: "How could His Royal Highness the Governor of the Family come up with such a trick thing, how is it possible..."

"It's indeed the handwriting of the Governor's Palace... I will never admit my mistake in my life. Several people silently muttered again, and then raised their heads in some confusion, and looked at Yuqiu and others with resentment and suspicion.

Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment and asked, "Everyone, what does this mean." ”

"See for yourself." The commander was silent and handed the scroll to Asahina Taichao.

Asahina Taichao silently unfolded the scroll, and the surrounding Yuakihei, Sena Shitoshi, and Asahina Taihyung also leaned behind him, watching the scroll slowly unfold, revealing the uninhibited but freely retractable handwriting on it. Yu Qiuping carefully watched as the strokes appeared with the scroll, and immediately recognized the handwriting.

"It's really a ...... home"

The second half of the sentence came to an abrupt end.

Because on that scroll, there was a line of writing.

"If I am unlucky, you will immediately return to the teacher to rebel! Those who have two hearts will be in Narumi at this time! ”

"It's... How..."Yu Qiu was dumbfounded. Out of trust in Imagawa Yoshimoto, his first reaction was to suspect Sena Toshishi and Asahina Taichao, who were also in Narumi. But after a moment of thought, he immediately dispelled this thought. Sena Toshi and Asahina Taichao are loyal and would never be the ones to do such a thing.

The three of Sena, Shuna and Asahina Taichao and Asahina Taiheng were also at a loss, staring blankly at the scroll and speechless for a while.

"My Highness is suspicious," said the leading herald, "rebel! It's rain and autumn leaves! ”

"Our Highness has searched for a long time near Dagao City and found the dozens of guards of the Great Governor's Palace." The herald said loudly, "They said that after preparing flammable materials in the castle tower, they gathered at the south gate and waited for the main hall of the family to come out of the castle tower and retreat together. But he suddenly received a herald armed with an arrow and a seal letter from the governor, saying that they were asked to evacuate immediately, and there was no need to wait for the palace of the governor. Shortly after they left, the castle tower was set on fire. At that time, they were a little worried about the whereabouts of the Governor's Palace, so they searched everywhere, and saw the defeat of their own army, and were forced to evacuate with the defeated army. ”

"And we heard that His Royal Highness Sena and the lords of the main family all met the heralds with the arrows and seals of the family governor in the barrel saga, and they forced you to retreat, so that the Oda family could calmly retreat and attack Narumi Castle!"

"Unfortunately," the herald looked at Yu Qiuping, "the Shadow Warrior's seal letter and arrow happened to be handed over to Yu Qiu Momiji, who was in charge of the Shadow Warrior's plan to lure the enemy. My Royal Highness suspects that it was Yu Qiuping who arranged for people to take the order arrow and seal the letter to falsely pass the order, and the army was defeated! He even arranged for people to follow the grain and grass team into Narumi City and take the opportunity to lock the four gates. Then he sent someone to trick the guards out of the city with arrows and letters, so that my Royal Highness mistakenly thought that the palace of the governor had left, so he left Narumi, burned down the castle tower, and burned the palace of the governor alive in the city of Narumi! ”

"And after everything is done, he plans to return to Minghai City, lie to you, take advantage of the chaos, and gain more power in the family in one fell swoop!" The herald scolded fiercely: "Fortunately, the Governor's Hall had noticed Yu Qiuping's wolf ambition before and left a plan, otherwise we would all be hidden from him now!" The palace of the governor is dead, and there is no proof that those arrows and seals are dead! ”

"Therefore, His Royal Highness sent me and others to summon you and take down the rebel Yu Qiuping! Rebel with my Highness! ”

How so... Yu Qiuping stood in place in a daze. He didn't understand what was going on and why His Royal Highness the Governor would leave such an order. Did he really doubt himself? Or was it a miscalculation? Why did all the evidence that originally pointed to the Okabe family point to him in an instant.

What am I going to do?

Yu Qiuping dodged the somewhat hostile gazes of several generals directly under the central government, and was at a loss.

"Nonsense!" Before everyone could react, he shouted at Bina Taehyung first. He angrily snatched the scroll and threw it to the ground, looking at the few generals who were staring at Yu Qiuping, and shouted, "You guys are not stupid!" This scroll is indeed the handwriting of the Governor's Palace, yes! But whose eye sees who is the thief who is written on it, and whose eye is it that sees to whom the palace of the governor is going to give this scroll? ”

This remark woke everyone up.

"Maybe the Governor's Hall wrote this in advance, and he plans to send it out of Narumi City and hand it over to us! Let's crusade against Motonobu Okabe, who was in Narumi Castle at the time! He shouted at Hikina Taehyung, "As a result, he was robbed by Motoshin Okabe halfway!" Instead, they will be used against us! The main hall of the family governor has been staying in Narumi Castle, maybe it has been controlled by Okabe Motoshin a long time ago! Lingjian Yinxin or something, it was all snatched by Okabe Motoxin! ”

As soon as these words came out, several generals directly under the central government who were extremely suspicious of Yu Qiuping just now hesitated. Asahina Taehyung's words are not coarse, and what he says is very reasonable. After all, this ambiguous scroll doesn't specify who is the rebel.

"Listen to me, everybody!" As soon as Sena saw that the situation had taken a turn for the better, he immediately recounted their previous analysis. The heralds of the Okabe family jumped like thunder several times and tried to interrupt, but they were all controlled by the people of the Asahina family.

"I, Sena Shijun, respectfully ask you, follow us to defeat the traitor!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, please believe in His Highness Okabe, crusade against the traitors!"

The people of the two factions insisted on their own words and quarreled.

For a long time, several generals looked at each other, and finally sighed.

"I'm really sorry to disappoint the kindness of the two highnesses." Several people shook their heads and said, "We really can't tell who is the mole, so it's inconvenient to interfere." Since His Royal Highness the Governor was unfortunately killed, we can only return to Junfu City with the body of His Royal Highness the Governor and listen to the orders of the young master. After discussing with them, they continued, "We will take Itami-sama's ship and return to Sunpu Castle by sea. I hope that the two highnesses will exercise restraint first and refrain from making any moves. Everything is waiting for the judgment of the young master! ”
