Call... Call... The wind at night was a little cool, but it was not as cold as the atmosphere in the big tent.

The retainers of the Oda family had clearly felt Oda Nobunaga's murderous aura, and they all lowered their heads and no one dared to respond, only Hosokawa Nobumoto praised the beauty of the "Three Asai Sisters".

"Uh... By the way, you're Cha Cha, right? Hosokawa Nobumoto felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and he himself felt as if he was performing alone, and no one applauded.

"yes, who are you?" Cha Cha milky, she is only three years old this year.

"Hmm... I'm your uncle. Hosokawa Nobumoto showed a cute appearance, thinking that this tea tea was the side room married by Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was the official worship of Taiko in the future, and he was also the man of the year who later held the power of the Toyotomi family.

"Aunt? Uncle? Chacha looked at Hosokawa Nobumoto curiously, not knowing what the little guy wanted to write again.

"By the way, I heard that you were kicked out by your father, is it true?" Hosokawa Nobumoto suddenly said with an exaggerated expression.

"Humph! Not really! What did my father say, but what sent us, what Nobunaga and what brother? Wouldn't it be difficult why? Cha Cha pouted and immediately retorted that children don't lie.

"Shut up! What nonsense! Oda said angrily, making Chacha shrink her neck in fright.

"Okay, you're tired too, go down and rest! Envelope! I'll leave my sister to you! Oda Nobunaga waved his hand and motioned for the fourth brother Nagano Nobunpo to take the four of them down.

For a long time, Oda Nobunaga frowned tightly and did not say a word.

"Rokuro." Suddenly, Oda Nobunaga called out Hosokawa Nobunaga's name as if he had woken up.

"Your Majesty is here!" Hosokawa Nobumoto breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that Chacha's innocent words just now touched Oda Nobunaga, indicating that Asai Nagamasa was able to send Oda City back, and he still recognized her as a mother.

"Take a trip to Otani and see... Can... Let's convince Nagamasa..."Oda Nobunaga finally relented, and although he knew that it would never be possible to convince Asai Nagamasa, he was still willing to give it a try.

"Yes! Your Majesty, let's go! Hosokawa Nobumoto saluted and hurried to Kotani Castle, he didn't want Asai Nagamasa to die so young.

Akao Ya Ao in Kotani Castle, Asai Nagamasa, Asai Masamoto, and the owner of this room, Akao Kiyotsuna, the three of them sat together and didn't say a word.

Suddenly, the voice of the guard sounded outside the door: "Lord! The Oda family sent a messenger to ask for an audience! ”

"Call him in." After receiving instructions from Asai Nagamasa, Akao Kiyotsuna told the guards outside loudly.

With a bang, the barrier door was opened, Hosokawa Nobumoto walked in slowly, and saluted solemnly: "Foreign Minister Hosokawa Rokuro Nobumoto, meet the Asai Palace!" ”

"It's Rokuro, it's been a long time." Asai Nagamasa saw that it was Hosokawa Nobumoto, and his face eased a lot.

"yes, it's been a long time since I've seen the Asai Hall. The foreign minister is here this time..."Hosokawa Nobumoto just said a few polite sentences, but was interrupted by Asai Nagamasa raising his hand: "I know your intention, please go back and tell Brother Nobunaga that my Asai family is determined to fight to the last man." ”

"But the Asai Palace, if you do this, it will anger the lord and will be detrimental to your heir!" Hosokawa Nobumoto was very anxious, he knew that Oda Nobunaga, in a fit of rage, would send someone to kill his Manfukumaru.

"He dares!" Akao Kiyotsuna stood up suddenly.

"Sit down!" Asai Nagamasa harshly rebuked Kiyotsuna Akao, who sat down indignantly.

"I have made up my mind, as for the future of my Asai family, it all depends on the creation of the descendants themselves." It seems that Asai Nagamasa is ready for the end, and his momentum of preferring to be broken jade rather than tile is completely deeply moved by Hosokawa Nobumoto.

"Under ... Well... Either as a foreign minister, or under the order! Maybe... Can help take care of... Well... One-two..."Hosokawa Nobumoto vaguely offered to take in Manfukumaru, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Asai Nagamasa and the other three looked at Hosokawa Nobumoto in surprise, this is disobeying Oda Nobunaga.

"I just don't want to make Ah Dog and her sister sad, and I don't know how long I can shelter in Xia, so I can do my best to obey the destiny of God." Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at Asai Nagamasa very sincerely, his clear eyes without a trace of treachery, although this matter is against the way of the ministers, but it is extremely moral.

"That's right..."Asai Nagamasa bowed his head in thought, obviously considering Hosokawa Nobumoto's request.

"But how can we trust you? You must know what you did on Long Island before, but you have a lot of fame. Asai Masamoto's side ridiculed Hosokawa Nobumoto for not being trustworthy, he didn't believe that Hosokawa Nobumoto would be so thankless.

"Hey... It's not a secret, here's the thing..."Saying that, Hosokawa Nobumoto told the situation at the time, and also focused on what happened recently, about Asakura Yoshikage's concubine Aiwangmaru, in fact, he had already given the "tanuki for the prince".

"What! It's true? Asai asked in surprise, this was the first time they had heard of this.

"There's no need to lie to you, Lord Torii Keijin is outside, and the Asai Hall can call him in to confront him face to face." Hosokawa Nobumoto secretly congratulated himself that he had brought Torii Jingjin over, and now he could repay his innocence.

"Really... Since Torii-sama is here, please come in. It's windy outside and the night is cold, let him in and warm up. Asai Nagamasa nodded, and Kiyotsuna Akao went out to welcome Torii Keikin.

"See Asai Daiden below!" Torii Kimami bowed and used the ronin's self-proclaimed name to show that he had nothing to do with the Oda family.

"Well, Toi-sama, please." Asai Nagamasa gave him a quick look, and then asked about the current situation.

Torii Keijin told the truth very sincerely, and when he said that Aiomaru was okay and that it was his child who died, even Hosokawa Nobumoto showed surprise on his face.

"Huh? Didn't Hosokawa-sama know about this? The wise Asai Nagamasa saw the clue at a glance, but he was just curious about what the initiator didn't know.

"Exactly, it's the first time I've learned that Lord Torii is really loyal and righteous, and he is really a model of the samurai." Hosokawa Nobumoto saluted Torii Jingjin, and admired this samurai in his heart.

"Don't dare, don't dare, Lord Hosokawa is ashamed, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid the young master would have been murdered a long time ago." Torii Keijin hurriedly turned sideways to give in to Hosokawa Nobumoto's salute, and instead saluted Hosokawa Nobumoto to express his gratitude.

"Hey... I'm wrong to blame Hosokawa-sama, please forgive me. Asai Nagamasa bowed his head and apologized, while Asai Masamoto and Akao Kiyotsuna bowed and obeyed.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, I believe that heaven is clear, and good and evil are rewarded. Besides, it's a lot of effort. Hosokawa Nobumoto modestly returned the favor to Asai Nagamasa.

"Hmmm! Hosokawa-sama said it well! What a good reason, good and evil are rewarded! He Oda Nobunaga is deeply sinful! Damnation! He! … Uhh

"Okay, Asai Hall, I think you all understand the intentions of the next, I wonder if you can tell me the whereabouts of the young master of Manfukumaru?" Hosokawa Nobumoto hurriedly changed the subject and asked about the whereabouts of Manfukumaru.

"Hosokawa-sama, although it is true that you are sheltering the young master of Aiomaru right now, how can we know if you are setting up a trap? Ready to catch them all? Suddenly, Masamoto Asai's discordant voice attracted everyone's attention.
