"The Asai family occupies Murozu Castle? That would be a loss of half of Bizen's commercial revenues...... Urakami Sojing still doesn't seem to be able to do it, I just hope he lasts a few more years. What will the Ukita family perform? It would be nice to find a hidden enough channel to give him a little support in secret. ”

"Did Mori Mutsu (Motoku) pass away? Presumably, after the funeral is over, Yoshikawa will return to San'in immediately, and the Nizi Revival Army should not be an opponent. It's a pity that Kobayakawa came out, and Shikoku can't toss with me...... I don't know where Mori Terumoto will put the center of gravity of his direct troops, and I hope to stick to Kitakyushu unwaveringly, otherwise it will be a trouble to throw himself into Kinai. ”

Hojo Sagami (Shiyasu), who couldn't even blink his eyelids, was just alive, and he could still make his son dare not change his diplomatic course. The Hojo clan is not actually a mediocre thing, but it looks clumsy in comparison with his father's generation. It's not bad that Takeda still doesn't dare to go westward on a large scale, and every extra delay is a good thing for my family. ”

"The shogunate actually took advantage of Shibata's secluded residence and the temporary shooting of Takenaka to woo the wealthy clan of Minami Omi...... The timing is good, but the attraction of conferring a title to small forces is limited, and if you can't strengthen your prestige with a military victory, you will be a mirror flower after all. Takenaka's persuasiveness doesn't just come from connections. ”

"Hokuriku...... Is it difficult for the Asakura family to play any tricks? It's just that the people who obey the orders of the princess can't fight the conservatives, and the goal of raising the young nephew to become the heir to control Echizen by remote control cannot be achieved. This was expected, Asakura Yoshikage was still alive after all, and Lord Gongfang was too eager to make his posture ugly. But it shouldn't change dramatically, right? ”

"Hatano and Matsunaga are just that, and Tsutsui is also suspicious? This is not good in, and any person with 50,000 koku may have unrealistic ambitions. It is not uncommon for 5,000 to 10,000 people to respond to Takeda's westward march in the future. More estimates are impossible, after all, there are not many names available. Honganji must be held well. ”

"Did you really catch the Takeda family's spies? Yes, yes, it's very emergency, and it can just show my determination to stand up to the old thief Takeda, and ......"

In the gap between the delivery, Hirate took the time to look through the information summary sent and had a general understanding of the latest changes in the surrounding area.

By the way, he took advantage of being alone and complained to the group of heroes to express the anger suppressed by red tape.

However, time is still limited, and before I have time to think carefully, someone reminded: "Lord Gong Fang must be waiting, when is the Lord going to leave?" ”

Hearing this, Pingshou sighed, waved his hand to summon his personal servant, waited for a change of clothes, and then stepped into the sedan chair in a clean spirit, leaned on the back seat and dozed off.

The master of the Tiantai Sect who just sent him away didn't have much effort!

Talking and laughing with various forces is actually not a big burden on the body, at least it is easier than riding a horse to fight and march, but you will feel very tired in your heart.

And this kind of exertion is difficult to resolve with rest.

After sitting in a sedan chair for two quarters of an hour, he was woken up softly, and as soon as Hiratsu opened the curtain, he saw Ashikaga Yoshiaki taking a posture of sweeping the couch and standing at the door to greet him.

In front of the public, it is natural that he has to respond with gratitude and trepidation.

Undoubtedly, it will take a lot of idle articles and a lot of energy. finally took a break in the busyness, and the precious vitality of the recovery was used on such a hypocritical and pretentious politeness.

This is the reason why Tieshou Honshu would rather fight outside than stay in the center for a long time.

"Fame" is just the icing on the cake rather than a blessing in the snow, and it is not worth investing too much effort in political and diplomatic situations, and it has a high marginal effect.

But it's not possible to stay away from Kyoto completely, otherwise the retainers and affiliated forces will feel uneasy.

Land, port towns, soldiers, gold, soldiers, and retainers are the real things, and they are the fundamental driving force that drives the cause forward. However, these real things need to be held together by other ethereal things.

All in all, the tie is quite helpless.

It's not that he's averse to politics – on the contrary, he's still very enthusiastic, but since he was a child, he was accustomed to the pragmatic and efficient nature of the Oda system, and he really couldn't accept the way that the ministers and monks and the tea people had to make 800 detours in a sentence.

It's good to deal with it once in a while, but it's unbearable for a long time.

If his thoughts were to be known to the people of Kyoto, he would be secretly ridiculed, saying that "the Owari samurai are still a countryman who does not understand the etiquette law".

Don't mention anything else, let's just talk about the opposite, at this time, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who is also meeting guests continuously, has bloodshot eyes and a slightly gloomy face, but there is a excitement that is close to pathology in his demeanor.

Ever since Nobunaga was assassinated and came to the Imperial Palace, the Shogun does not seem to have had any negative emotions such as sorrow, hesitation, and sorrow.

It's like a different person from the Demon King-no, it's more exaggerated.

At the same time as he was slandering in his heart, he cheered up and began to think about how to throw out the prepared topic.

What is the original formation arrangement today...... Tea party? Noh? Songs? Eagle hunting? Sumo? Fiesta? Anyway, it's definitely not a sword competition, that's the hobby of the previous generation of generals......

Why is it not impressive at all...... Completely forget about it, hurry up and see what others are doing, and learn from it.

Anyway, the rules of the nobles in Kyoto are strange, and it is very elegant for a tea drinker to talk about politics by the way, and it is considered rude to hold a meeting specifically to solve practical problems.

Unless there is a real urgency, there is no room for delay in the discussion.

Since the event location is in the Imperial Palace, it is natural that the general of Seiyi is respected, and the members are mainly the core personnel of the Ashikaga clan. There are also some lesser lords who are not very important in the near future.

It's just that the familiar faces of a few former colleagues are quite abrupt......

Wise Mitsuhide, people are theoretically still pure ministers of the Ashikaga family.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi is a little subtle, he has only been in the office for a few days, and he has a place within the shogunate.

As for Shibata Katsuie...... Shouldn't you have thought about it behind closed doors in the Xingsheng Temple of the Caodong Sect, eating fasting and reciting Buddha? What is the saying of coming to the Imperial Palace?

Fortunately, Oda Nobunaga was not present - it seems that this "Captain-sama" did something a few months ago, but then suddenly there was no movement. Now that Ashikaga Yoshiaki has sent people to strictly guard and not allow outsiders to see, I really don't know what the situation is......

In the backyard of the palace, twenty or thirty seats surround the city, which is neither sparse nor bustling. There is a small piece in the middle, which will be too small for performances, considering that the outdoor tea party is not popular, most of it is a song.

While thinking about it secretly, Pingshou Fanxiu sat down with the big stream, and he didn't think about how to explain his intentions, but he saw someone stand up.

I saw Kinoshita Hideyoshi get up and salute Ashikaga Yoshiaki solemnly before everyone could speak, and said in a loud voice: "Lord Gongfang! You know that your subordinate is a vulgar person, and he has never known the truth of poetry and songs. Although I was invited today, I was actually nervous, so I simply said what I wanted to say in advance, so as not to forget it later! ”

Most of the people present couldn't help but have a look of disdain in their eyes.

"Huh...... What is the important matter of Hideyoshiden, please feel free to speak. Ashikaga Yoshiaki did not discriminate at all, and smiled very kindly.

"Thank you, Lord Gongfang!" Kinoshita Hideyoshi knelt down and saluted, got up and continued: "My subordinates are the temple shrines, and I recently heard some people in the temple talking about things in the east! It is said that Kai's Takeda Daizen (Shingen) has now invaded Mino and Mikawa, and has bribed many unruly monks to justify his aggression, which is simply not taking the shogunate seriously! ”

When the words landed, everyone was shocked.

Tieshou is no exception, thinking to myself, how did you rob what I was going to say?

The smile on Ashikaga Yoshiaki's face gradually disappeared, and he said "um", not committal, closed his eyes and frowned, and was silent.

A shogun, dressed as a scribe, questioned, "In addition to Kai, Takeda Daizen also served as Shinano, Suruga, and other countries. At the confluence of his territory and Mino and Sanhe, there are some boundary disputes, which leads to a confrontation between the two armies, which is normal, and it is a bit of a fuss to call it 'aggression'? ”

The scribe was not too clever but sounded reasonable, but Kinoshita Hideyoshi did not argue with him when he heard this, but smiled coldly and sneered: "Originally, I thought that the Takeda family only bought monks, but now it seems that some of the shoguns may have also been bought." ”

"You reckless man is so bold! You know I ......" The scribe was furious at the unwarranted suspicion, and immediately pointed at Kinoshita Hideyoshi's nose and cursed.

But before he finished speaking, he was pulled by Akimitsu Makijima next to him.

The latter seemed to be relaxed, and said in a soothing tone: "The two adults don't need to be angry about this. I think Takeda Daizen has always been very respectful to the shogunate, so he shouldn't have done anything rebellious, so maybe there was some misunderstanding about this? Of course, Kinoshita's palace is also out of public heart and should be commended. ”

It seems to be a round game, but the inclination in the speech is obvious.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki suddenly opened his eyes and looked at it, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

Then Shibata Katsuie, who has always shown the image of a reckless man, hugged each other: "I have always hated this person Kinoshita, and I don't think he has any 'public heart' at all." But this guy's wit...... To put it mildly, it's so high that I don't know where it is going to be except for the Tie Punishment Department. Since he has made a conclusion, it must have been carefully thought out and repeatedly verified, so how could there be any misunderstanding? ”

His words blocked the whole audience and didn't know what to say, and everyone looked at each other for a while and quieted down.

Only one shogun whispered disdain: "Hmph! Messed up the situation in Minami Omi, who should have thought about it behind closed doors! Thanks to the grace of the princess, you dare to come forward like this......"

Shibata Katsuya was deaf and clear-sighted, and immediately slapped his thigh, stood up suddenly, and said sharply with wide eyes: "That's right!" The contemptible man is indeed shameless to stay here! Let's go back and continue to think about it behind closed doors! ”

After saying that, he made a gesture to leave.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki couldn't sit still, so he hurriedly got up to stop him, so he talked for a while before persuading him to stay, and reprimanded the person who was talking in a whisper just now.

Then Akechi Mitsuhide also came out to speak: "Even if there is a border dispute, you should appeal to the shogunate, and the princess will decide, how can you rashly raise troops?" ”

Isshiki Fujinaga retorted: "I don't know if Takeda took the initiative to raise troops, maybe Oda and Tokugawa made the first move?" ”

Akechi Mitsuhide sneered: "As far as I know, the Takeda family has never informed the shogunate of this series of actions, while the Oda and Tokugawa families have sent letters, which shows that the attitudes of the two sides are very different. ”

As if to confirm his words, outside the courtyard gate at this time, Ise Sadako, who was on duty at the imperial palace and did not participate in the singing party, hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Lord Gongfang! Omi Oda and Enzo Tokugawa sent a joint letter, asking the shogunate to coordinate and stop the atrocities of the Koshin Takeda family! ”
