After listening to the words of the burning air, Fushiwa Mingjiro on the side said to the burning sky: "My lord, those people before Nanyue are really disappointing! ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky smiled and said, "In the face of the religion I usually believe, I don't think most people have the courage to go against it!" We should have to face the Yixiang Sect many times in the future, so we must not recruit disciples from the Yixiang Sect in the future. ”

Fushiwa Akijiro nodded after hearing this, and said to the burning sky, "Is the lord going to Shibata-sama to ask for some news now?" ”

Burning Sky shook his head and said, "Now let's have a good rest for Shibata-sama, let's go visit Goroubei and Sukeemon first!" ”

At this time, Shibata Katsuya was looking at a letter sent to him by Takenaka Hanbei, and after reading the letter, Shibata Katsuya said to Niwa Nagahide beside him: "Takenaka Shigeji said in the letter that he would ask the lord for guilt, and said that he was willing to give up his knowledge of Omi 3000 stone and return to his home city Bodhi Mountain Castle to reflect!" ”

After listening to Shibata Katsuie's words, Niwa Nagahide was silent for a few breaths, and said to Shibata Katsuie: "Takenaka's half-guard move is to retreat, but let me wait for it to ask the lord to punish him." ”

Shibata Katsuya nodded after hearing this, and said to Niwa Nagahide: "Not only that, but he also has the merit of defeating the Asakura, the Ichijo Sect alliance army, and capturing Fuchu Castle, and even me and Mingshamen and others were rescued by him from the Asakura army, if we deal with him too hard, I am afraid that it will anger the lord." ”

"What a cunning Mino No. 1 wise general, should I let him go so easily?" Niwa Nagahide's face looked extremely angry, his fists clenched tightly, and he said loudly to Shibata Katsuie.

After listening to Niwa Nagahide's words, Shibata Katsuya looked at Niwa Nagahide with some surprise, got up and asked Niwa Nagahide, "Gorouzuo, don't you always advise me to treat my colleagues kindly?" Why are you so resentful of the Takenaka Hanbei today? ”

After hearing this, Niwa Nagahide also got up and said to Shibata Katsuie: "Gonroku, I was deceived by the superficial illusion of Yushiba Hideyoshi and Takenaka Hanbei on weekdays, and I deeply realized their shamelessness in this battle, and now I regret that I didn't listen to you before!" ”

Shibata Katsuya listened to Niwa Nagahide's words, patted Niwa Nagahide on the shoulder, and said to Niwa Nagahide: "Since he Takenaka Shigeji wants to give up the three thousand stone Zhiyuki of Kita-Omi, I will let him stay in Bodhi Mountain Castle for the rest of the future!" Gorou Zuo, you have to help me at this time! ”

Niwa Nagahide nodded after hearing this, and said to Shibata Katsuie: "Don't worry, Quan Liu, I will definitely help you in this matter, so that the half-guards of Takenaka will die in Bodhi Mountain City!" ”

After Kinku and the others repaired in Momoyama Castle for two days, Kinku was summoned to the house by Shibata Katsuya to inquire about the recent situation as usual. Just as Burning Sky was reporting to Shibata Katsuya about the movements in Fuchu Castle, the attendant suddenly opened the door and said to Shibata Katsuie, "My lord, His Highness Nobunaga's horse has returned!" ”

The two people in the room immediately looked at each other after hearing this, and Shibata Katsuya said to the attendant: "Let the horse come back, and you can go and call Gorou Zuo to me again, okay, go quickly!" After listening to Shibata Katsuie's order, the attendant immediately turned to Ma Hui outside the door and said, "Please come in, this lord!" When the horse returned to the house, the attendant walked in the direction where Niwa Nagahide was.

Burning Sky looked at Ma Hui who came in and found that it was Hidetaka Kawajiri. Hidetaka Kawajiri also saluted Kanku and Shibata Katsuie, and then said to the two: "The lord has an order, and he ordered Shibata-sama and Niwa-sama to leave a hundred men in Momoyama Castle and return to Gifu with the army immediately, and Hieiyama-sama will return to Gifu with him alone." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky looked at the contemplative Shibata Katsuie, got up and walked up to Kawajiri Hidetaka and asked, "Rokubei, why did you come to Mahuizhong again?" Kawajiri Hidetaka took a sip of the cold water handed by the Burning Void, and then said to the Burning Void: "Mingshamen, the young master said that I was more suitable to be a horse, so he made it clear to the lord, and then the lord transferred me back to the horse. ”

Burning Sky looked at Kawajiri Hidetaka in front of him, who had a somewhat erratic look in his eyes, patted Kawajiri Hidetaka on the shoulder and smiled and said, "Liubei, how did the lord look when he asked you to come to pass the order?" ”

After hearing this, Kawajiri Hidetaka whispered to Burning Sky and Shibata Katsuie: "Shibata-sama, Mingshamon, the lord was normal when he passed on his order this time, and he was not angry or angry; Oh, by the way, the lord also sent a horse to Fuzhong City, but I don't know exactly what order was conveyed! ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky glanced at Shibata Katsuie, Shibata Katsuya got up and said, "Liubei, you go and rest first, I'll wait for some preparations, and then return to Gifu City with the army." ”

After hearing this, Hidetaka Kawajiri nodded at Shibata Katsuie, and then when he turned to leave, he whispered to Burning Sky, "Come with me!" ”

Burning Sky watched Kawajiri Hidetaka exit the house, turned to Shibata Katsuya and said, "Shibata-sama, go back to the items that are going to Gifu first, and your lord will wait a moment!" ”

After hearing this, Shibata Katsuya waved his hand at Burning Empty and signaled that Burning Sky could go back. Burning Sky glanced at Shibata Katsuie, who was contemplating in the room, bowed his head and exited the house.

As soon as Kinku exited the house, he saw Niwa Nagahide walking briskly towards the room behind him. Niwa Nagahide saw Yakora withdrawing from Shibata Katsu's house, so he stepped forward to Yakora and asked, "Mingshamen, but the lord has come to order?" Burning Sky nodded slightly, then pointed to the room behind him, and said to Niwa Nagahide, "Shibata-sama is in the house!" ”

After Niwa Nagahide entered the house, Sakaku said to Kawajiri Hidetaka on the side, "Rokubei, what do you want to tell me?" ”

After hearing this, Kawajiri Hidetaka looked left and right, and then said to the burning sky: "Mingshamen, the young master asked me to inform you that Yuchai Hideyoshi has already met with the lord, so let you be careful in everything." ”

After hearing this, Burning Sky nodded, and said to Kawajiri Hidetaka, "Got it, you go eat some food, rest for a while, and we'll return to Gifu City together." ”

Hidetaka Kawajiri nodded, just took a few steps, and then returned to the burning sky and asked, "Mingshamen, who am I going to find to eat?" ”

Burning Sky looked at Kawajiri Hidetaka's somewhat aggrieved expression, and said with a smile to the attendant on the side, "Lord Shibata asked you to take this adult to eat something." ”

The attendant saw that it was the burning sky, so he bowed his head and said to the burning sky: "I understand below!" Yanbi said to Hidetaka Kawajiri, "My lord, please come down!" ”

After arranging the hungry Kawajiri Hidetaka Akitaka with Burning Sky, he immediately turned around and walked into the house of the Shibata Katsuie. In the house, Shibata Katsuya was discussing countermeasures with Niwa Nagahide, and when he saw Yakora coming in, he asked Yakora in front of him, "Mingshamon, are you ready so soon?" ”

Burning Sky shook his head, took a few steps earlier, and said to the two of them: "I just asked from the mouth of the six guards below that Yushiba Hideyoshi has already met with the lord!" ”

After hearing this, Shibata Katsuya looked at Niwa Nagahide, who was a little surprised on the side, and then looked at the burning sky with a flat face, and after pondering for a while, he said to the two: "The monkey actually went directly to visit the lord, and the current situation is very unfavorable to us, if the monkey goes to intercede for Takenaka Shigeji, or slanders us, we can't justify it to the lord now." ”
