Chapter 186: Enemy Situation

"Taiqing Otawara?" Zhengqing hurriedly shook his head: "There are three brothers in the next one, they are Zhengqing Xianqing and Shengqing, but none of them are named Taiqing."

"I understand," Komiyayama Harukatsu bowed slightly, and said with a serious expression: "If this is the case, then the information has been implemented, Your Highness, please forgive me, judging from the information Harukatsu currently has, your relatives and retainers who are stranded in Shuikou City may no longer be alive."

"Not alive? What do you mean?! Masaaki Otahara was caught off guard by Harukatsu Komiyayama's sudden words

"Your Highness, don't panic, and listen to the details below" Komiyayama Harukatsu made tea for Zhengqing, and said slowly: "Not long after Ling Zun handed over the "Zhixing Bong Return Book" to the Right Mansion, Zai received an order to send a ninja to Otawara Castle to investigate the truth, of course, just to find out if this is a trap, and there is no other meaning In the first month, the ninja reported that he did not find anything abnormal, and he was also ready to ask Fushimi for instructions to cancel the surveillance, but he never thought about it, just three days ago, that is, on the way back to Suruga from Ueno, Suddenly, I received an urgent report from Nakashinobi, saying that there was a conflict between the Otawara family and the neighboring daimyo, and in less than a day, Mizuguchi Castle was conquered, and the vacant Otawara Castle was also taken over by the wealthy clan in the territory, and the next day, there was a notice posted in the nearby village, saying that the position of the governor of the Otawara clan was inherited by the second son of Lingzun, Otahara Taiqing, and at the same time, in order to alleviate the conflict with the surrounding daimyo, the territory of 3,000 stone was ceded to the three families of Oseki Sano Narita, and the family governor of the Otahara clan, Mitsutai was welcomed as the heir, and the family business of the Otawara clan could be inherited in the future”

"Nonsense!" Otawara Masaaki punched the tatami mat, and the whole ground seemed to tremble, only to see him bite his lip with red eyes and shout: "There is no such person as Otawara Taiqing in this family, and the head of the Otahara clan is Otawara Kiyotai, and that Otahara Kotai is just Kiyotai's sister-in-law, Oseki Sano Narita... This must be their conspiracy, yes, they must have taken advantage of my father's absence to send troops to occupy Daejeon, and set up a puppet as the governor of the family, so as to realize their ambition of annexing their own family! ”

Komiyayama Harutsu was also taken aback by Masaaki's overreaction, and hurriedly reassured: "You said that the head of the Otahara clan is Otsura Kiyotai, and as far as I know, the so-called family governor of the Otawara clan is called Taiqing, and these two are likely to be the same person, and the reason why Qingtai handed over the position of the head of the Otamari clan to his son-in-law is probably also to hide people's eyes."

"It must be so," Otahara, Masaaki replied indignantly, "At that time, the old man of the main family, Kokura Mitsuaki, planned to raise an army to fight against the Otari clan, although in the end it fell short because of the intervention of the Tokugawa family, but since then, Otari Kiyotai has held a grudge against the family, and replaced the family with the support of the inner government, yes, if it weren't for this, the inner government would not have designed to frame the family in Edo, and the father would not have died tragically."

"Tragic death? Lingzun him..."Komiyayama Harukatsu stopped talking, and through Masaaki's words, he could roughly guess what was happening in Edo

Harukatsu's words poked at Otawara Masaaki's heart, and then he cried with a handful of snot and tears, cursed Tokugawa Ieyasu and deeply worried about the safety of his family

Although Komiyayama Harukatsu expected that Tokugawa Ieyasu would use jiān deceit to deal with the Otawara clan, he didn't expect that the old fox would be able to turn his face so much and not recognize people, and splash all the dirty water on Otawara, and finally reap the benefits of the fisherman

"His Royal Highness Komiyayama also asks you to be the master of your life!" After recounting what happened in Edo, Masaaki Otawara could no longer hold back the grief and shame in his heart, and bowed down heavily to Harukatsu, so that he could help the Otawara clan restore their family name

"Your Highness, don't be like this," Komiyayama Harukatsu helped Zhengqing up, and said quite helplessly: "You have said that the inner government is behind this matter, in this case, what can you do for you with your ability alone?" ”

"Am I going to watch my family's name being stolen by others, and my city being invaded and taken away?" Masaaki Otahara burst into tears, and he really didn't dare to accept such a fact

Komiyayama Qingsheng shook his head: "Your Highness needs to be pessimistic, there is still room for turning around in this matter, but I don't know if you can accept it."

"As long as you can win your family's name, even if you lose your life, you will not give up!" Masaaki Otahara bowed down again

"Your Highness is serious, not only do you not have to take your life, but you have to protect yourself, you have to understand, now it is very likely that you are the only one left in the Otawara clan" Komiyayama Harukatsu continued: "What you have to do now is to follow me back to Fufu to meet the right house, and now in the RI book, only the right house can compete with Tokugawa Ieyasu."

"Is Youfu really willing to turn against Tokugawa Ieyasu in order to get down?" Masaaki Otahara obviously doesn't believe it, he's just a down-and-out name, and Hideho won't be rash no matter what he says

In fact, what Harukatsu said is just an expedient measure, and now he is still on the edge of the Tokugawa family's sphere of influence, of course, he can't make any big moves, only by returning to and handing this matter over to Hidebo, maybe there will be a chance to recover, even if he won't turn his face with Tokugawa Ieyasu because of this little thing for the time being, but as long as Otawara Masaaki is alive, there will be one more excuse for the Tokugawa family to use force after ri, which is now quite sensitive for the relationship between the two families, which is suspected to be conducive to Hidekawa to take the initiative

Ota Masaaki also realized that he was a little too urgent, so he immediately changed the topic and asked respectfully, "Your Highness Komiyayama, do you think it is appropriate to go on the road?" ”

"See those ninjas outside the door?" Qing Sheng smiled and said: "They are all of them that I have worked hard to summon Hu Yin, there are enough people of eighty people, with their protection, there is no need to worry about safety when you go on the road."

"Then I'll rest assured, in the end, the right government has strong financial resources, a nickname like ours, even if it is a hired ninja, there are only a few people at most, how can there be nearly a hundred people at every turn" Otahara Masaaki burst into tears and smiled, looking at Komiyayama Harukatsu with a flattering face

"That being said, after all, this is a critical moment, and with Hattori Hanzo's ability, it is not difficult to track down your whereabouts, so let's wait for Suo Xing to set off at dawn" Komiyayama Harukatsu pondered for a long time before making a decision, after all, he also wanted to get a good night's sleep

"Understood, I'm going to pack my luggage here, and I'll return to Fushimi with His Highness as soon as it's dawn" Otahara Masaaki bowed and saluted, seeing that Harukatsu was also a little sleepy, he was ready to get up and leave the room

"If there is an enemy, please stay in the house!" Just as Zhengqing was about to open the door, a deep voice accompanied by the sound of a knife striking came from outside the door

ps: It's still the same sentence, let's vote more!
