After listening to Nakajo Genzaburo Keitai's words, Sabei first looked at Nakajo Keiyasu in front of him, and after seeing that he took out Onozaki Yoshimasa's letter, he ordered Yamashita Shinsuke, who was serving him behind him: "Go to inform Shudai first, and then report to the lord that the envoy of Kenshin has arrived at the office, and ask the lord to give an order." ”

After hearing this, Yamashita Shinsuke immediately pressed his saber and walked away quickly. Sabei said to Nakajo Keitai in front of him: "Lord Genzaburo came suddenly, I ask Lord Genzaburo to forgive me for my poor preparation!" ”

Yan Bi Sabei gave up one body and invited Nakajo Keitai into the office. Seeing this, the chiefs, metokes, and servants in the office bowed their heads, and the Sabei gave everyone a look at the attendants standing in front of their houses, and then ordered the others to continue their work.

After inviting Nakajo Keitai into the house, Sabei said to the man in front of him, who was still young: "Sabei Genshin is stupid, and he never knows your name. ”

The man in front of him smiled and said, "Exactly, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”

After hearing this, Sabei also smiled and said, "In the Xia Ming Guard, Sabei Xuanxin." ”

The man nodded, as if he knew the identity of Sabei. Then the man took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Sabei with both hands.

Sabei was about to stretch out his hands, but suddenly felt that the envoy of the Uesugi family was too strange, and he didn't even understand the true identity of Sabei, so how could he dare to easily hand over the deed related to the alliance between the two families to himself.

In an instant, Sabei pressed the hands of the person in front of him with one hand, and his right hand was about to pull out the small knife at his waist, and at the same time shouted: "Come on!" ”。 At this time, Shuichi Hasegawa, who had just walked out of the depths of the commission, saw Sabei draw his sword and slash the envoy of the Uesugi family at the door, and immediately shouted: "Sabei stop!" ”

Hearing this, Sabei did not retreat but advanced, and smashed the head of Nakajo Keitai with the handle of the small knife with his backhand, and the man reacted at this time, and quickly pulled out to dodge, but was hit in the shoulder by Sabei in the shoulder. Nakajo Keitai's right shoulder hurt, but he gritted his teeth and held back Sabei's left hand, trying to subdue Sabei.

At this time, the attendant outside the house had already entered the house before Hasegawa Shuichi, and before the man could subdue the Sabei guard, he was hit in the back with a stick, and then he was held to the neck by two knives.

Shuichi Hasegawa, who didn't understand the reason, looked at the subdued Nakajo Keitai, but with the idea of trusting Sabei, he asked with confusion, "Sabei, what's wrong?" ”

Hearing this, Sabei shook off his left arm, which was just held by Nakajo Keitai, and said to Hasegawa Shuichi: "This person directly handed me the deed without knowing my identity, I am worried that he is not the real messenger sent by Kenshin!" ”

Before Sabei finished speaking, Nakajo Keitai, who had relieved himself, said to Sabei and Hasegawa Shuichi: "It's really a messenger sent by the Huihu Palace, and the deed is also written by the Huihu Hall himself, and I hope that the adults will not damage it!" ”

Hearing this, Sabei walked to the desk, took a piece of blue cloth, and then picked up the deed that had just fallen on the ground through the blue cloth, glanced at Hasegawa Shuichi, and handed it to Hasegawa Shuichi. Hasegawa Shuichi didn't take the deed, but said to Sabei: "Sabei, you pick up the things first and go to the lord to see the lord, I will take care of them and wait for the lord to dispose of them!" ”

Sabei nodded, and after Hasegawa Shuichi commanded the Metsuki servants in the commission to take control of the so-called mission pretending to be a caravan, he walked quickly towards Oda Nobunaga's palace.

After listening to Sabei's report in the assessment room, Oda Nobunaga was shocked at first, then silent, and after a long silence, his eyes became gloomy.

Sabei in the assessment room felt the change in Oda Nobunaga's mood, how could his heart calm down, just when Sabei was anxiously thinking about the secret, Hasegawa Shuichi also hurriedly entered the assessment room, bowed to Oda Nobunaga in front of him and said: "Lord, these people are indeed from the Uesugi family, but when I asked who was the liaison officer in their group, no one answered!" ”

Oda Nobunaga's complexion changed from gloomy to calm after hearing this, and he smiled and said to the sad Sabei in front of him: "The liaison service is among them, and the reason why they don't say it may be that I am afraid that I will use the alliance as bait to trap and kill their liaison officer, but am I that kind of person?" ”

After speaking, Oda Nobunaga got up and said, "It seems that I have to go and see them in person, not in the temple." ”

Sabei and Hasegawa Shuichi nodded when they heard this, and then followed Oda Nobunaga towards the commission.

After entering the office, Sabei immediately ordered someone to seal the gate of the office, and Hasegawa Shuichi ordered all the warriors in the office to take precautions, and at the same time, Hasegawa Shuichi also took his attendants and a few horses back to protect Oda Nobunaga.

When the Uesugi envoys heard that the person who came was Oda Nobunaga, they suddenly became a lot quieter, and no one dared to think that Fang Cai shouted that the Oda family had no intention of forming an alliance, but was embarrassed by them who really came to form an alliance.

Oda Nobunaga looked at the people of Uesugi disguised as a caravan in front of him, opened the folding fan in his hand, and asked them: "Since you are waiting for the sincere alliance to form, why did the liaison officer refuse to show up for a long time, such a secret really does not have the slightest intention of sincere alliance, now that I, Nobunaga, have arrived, your liaison officer should also come out!" ”

As he spoke, Oda Nobunaga walked into the Uesugi crowd who had already received their weapons and tied their hands behind their backs, and pulled out a person dressed as an ordinary ronin from inside.

As soon as the ronin was pulled out, the people of Uesugi blew up. Seeing this, Oda Nobunaga didn't make any extra moves, and said directly to the ronin in front of him: "You are Genzaburo Nakajo Keitai!" ”

Soon the ronin confessed his identity, and then washed himself at the office. When he reappeared in front of everyone, he had already turned into a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy.

Oda Nobunaga was also a little surprised when he saw this, and the real Nakajo Keitai was a little surprised when he saw Oda Nobunaga, but he didn't explain anything, but began to talk to Oda Nobunaga about the contents of the deed.

Sabei vaguely understood why the real Nakajo Keitai wanted people to pretend to be himself, first, he was too young and afraid of Oda Nobunaga thinking that Uesugi Kenshin was perfunctory to himself, and second, he was too young and afraid of Oda Nobunaga secretly deceiving him. But Sabei didn't speculate everything, and probably only Nakajo Keitai himself knew the inside story.

The discussion between Oda Nobunaga and Nakajo Keiyasu did not last long, and the Uesugi family's deed had already been written very clearly, and Oda Nobunaga only raised questions about some of the more ambiguous places, and was explained by Nakajo Keiyasu, and both families also recorded the content of the meeting, and copied a copy and gave it to each other, providing a basis for dealing with disputes in the future.

In the end, Oda Nobunaga, under the watchful eyes of Sabei and Hasegawa Shuichi and others, stamped the great seal of his world Abu on two deeds, one for himself and the other for Uesugi Kenshin brought by Nakajo Keitai.

After dealing with this, Sabei's worries were also put down, and he only waited for Oda Nobunaga to deploy his troops and attack the Takeda army again on the agreed date.
