285-288 The Choice of Destiny

285

Generally speaking, men who can speak are more attractive.

Let's say this Tianhai master in front of you.

Miss Narita, who had been sneering at him before, was now chatting with him very warmly.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Sanada Nobu Shigeru would have suspected that the previous saber-rattling was his own boring conjecture.

But what are these two people talking about......

Sanada Nobuyoshi really didn't dare to compliment.

Here's one of the conversations between these two people, let's take a look at it too:

[Oh? It turns out that Sister Cheng has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, no wonder...... Hey? Isn't this a mulberry flower......]

Tianhai's slender hand suddenly reached out to Narita Kai's ear.

【Master, you...... Hey? 】

Narita Kai didn't notice him coming with such a hand, and shrunk his neck in startle.

Amami's fingertips swept slightly over Narita's hair.

[Miss, look, the flowers are on your hair! 】

A few tiny white flowers were sandwiched between Tianhai's fingers.

[Ah, how come? There are no woody flowers from Ninjo Castle...... Oh, I see, I guess I got it when I was pruning the flowers in the garden this afternoon......]

【Pruning?】 It turns out that Miss Narita also likes flower arrangement. 】

[Yes, my floral art is quite accomplished, and the average flower carpenter can't compare to me, and I occasionally point out the clumsy servants in the city......]

Narita replied with a hint of concern, completely oblivious to how rude Amami's actions were just now.

[That's right......]

Tianhai nodded.

[I have lived for more than fifty years, traveled from south to north, and have seen many beautiful women who are worthy of praise, but ...... It's rare to see a glamorous woman who is suitable for wearing white flowers! This flower must have come here with you because she liked you......]

was praised by Tianhai like this, and the heroic heroine of the heroine who was heroic just now became at a loss because of joy.

[Huh? This ......]

[It's no wonder.] If this flower has thoughts, it will definitely be willing to follow you......]

[This...... It's really ......]

Narita's cheeks flushed.

[Master, you are a monk and an elder, how can you speak so frivolously? ……】

Having said that, Narita Kai was not angry at all, on the contraryβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Is she happy now, or happy, or happy?

After all, she is also a girl, and she will always be happy to be praised for her beauty.

[Hahaha, please don't mind! ] …… I'm just glad to have met such a beautiful woman as you...... You must know that there is a vast sea of people, and there are many people who are obviously close at hand, but they have never seen it, this is fate......]

[Really? Master, you're not lying to me, are you...... People in my family always say that I am too boyish as a girl, and I don't have a trace of good cultivation as a Japanese woman, so I am afraid it will be difficult to marry in the future......]

[How so?] Miss Narita is such an outstanding and chic character.,But it's very popular.,It's just that Miss hasn't met the right person for herself.,Between the world,The most particular thing is a [fate]......]

Narita Kai was overjoyed, he had lived for more than ten years and had seen many people, and this Tianhai master was the most understanding.

[What other flowers are there in this season besides the woody flowers?] Since it's on campus...... There should also be winter tea plums, begonias and loquat flowers, right? 】

[Yes, the winter tea plum is blooming beautifully now......]

Sanada Nobuyhiro shook his head with a smile on the side.

Not long after, Narita Kai had already chatted with Tianhai.

He listened to their conversation on the sidelines, and Narita Kai chatted with others with great interest about the type of opposite sex he admired, as if he was already very familiar.

[Brother Sanada, your master's set, you better learn a little more. 】

Narita on the side suddenly said coldly.

[Huh?! 】

Sanada Nobuyoshi looked at Narita Nagakin, but found that this old and unserious guy had a very surprising seriousness on his face.

[Little brother, do you think that your master's current behavior must be very abnormal from just now? 】

[Yes......]

[Don't you think it's not like him at all? 】

[Yes......]

[A young man is still so close to the little girl, this looks completely like a stream of talking to the girl in the tavern? ] Ronin, isn't it? 】

[Yes......]

Sanada Nobuyhiro woke up suddenly, and before he knew it, he had said what was in his heart.

[Nope! No! How could I say such a thing......]

[When we first met, I was very inserious, right? 】

Cheng Tiancheng stared at Sanada Nobuyoshi with a smile, and the latter felt blush.

My mind was completely pierced by others, how can I mess up?!

【……】

[You must have thought about such a question in your heart, how could a person like me who is so angry have a relationship with someone as serious and serious as your master...... Don't tell me you don't think so, I look down on dishonest young people the most. 】

[Hehe, Mr. Narita, I don't know what to say. 】

Sanada Nobuhiro laughed embarrassedly.

[Hahahaha......]

Seeing the deflated appearance of the young man in front of him, Narita was overjoyed and patted him on the shoulder.

[Little brother, you don't have to be sad, when you reach my age, many things will naturally be understood. 】

[...... your age]

Sanada Nobuyoshi became interested.

[Mr. Narita, how much are you noble? 】

[Hehe, this question ......]

Narita Changqin said "hehe" twice, and then asked him in his tone:

[By the way, little brother, do you have any opinion on your master's current appearance? 】

[I'm not used to it......]

Since he couldn't hide his thoughts in front of him, he simply didn't hide it.

[Haha...... That's right! 】

γ€οΌŸ 】

[Actually, at first glance, your master is a serious and fair scholar who does not smile, while I am like an idle and unsmiling gentleman...... But actually, little brother, all you see is us [avatars]. 】

[Incarnation? 】

[Yes, the incarnation is...... Little brother, do you believe in Buddha? 】

[Of course. 】

Like most Japanese people, the Sanada family is devout Buddhist.

[Where did the Buddhism come from?] 】

[This...... I don't read much, but I heard that it came from Tianzhu. 】

[By the way, but the Tianzhu people don't believe in the Buddha anymore, do you know? 】

[I don't know much about ......]

[They believe in a religion called Brahmanism, which says that there are three gods in the world, Shiva, Vishnu, and Brahma...... Brahma, you should have heard of it, it is the legendary [Great Brahma King Bodhisattva] with four faces. 】

[Heard ......]

Sanada Shinshigeru didn't know this, he only knew the Buddha, he had already fainted.

[I won't talk much about Shiva, he is called [Throughout the Heavens], and he also has this kind of incarnation...... And this Vishnu is quite a god, he has a total of ten incarnations, and none of them have very powerful powers, namely fish, ghosts, wild boars, lion-faced people, dwarf brahmins, axe-wielding Rama, Rama, Black Sky Krishna, Karki, and Buddha ......]

Sanada Nobuyhiro was stunned to hear it, he was a son of a country name, it was very good to know that the Buddha was from Tianzhu, as for [Brahmanism] (later Hinduism) or something, he had never heard of it at all, and when he heard the [Ten Incarnations], the whole person was stupid.

Eventually, though, he came to his senses.

Because he heard that there was a Buddha in the Ten Incarnations.

[Mr. Narita, what are you talking about, the Buddha is just one of these Vishnu incarnations?!] 】

The gods and Buddhas he believed in turned out to be just the incarnation of other gods, and Sanada Shinshihiro couldn't sit still.

In fact, Sanada Nobuhiro is okay like this, he hasn't gone berserk yetβ€”β€”β€”β€”

If it was a radical or slightly more stubborn Buddhist, he would have jumped out and beaten people a long time ago.

[Yes......]

[What is this [Brahmanism] really tmd excessive!] Not even the Nanban Sect or the Shinto Sect had ever done this...... Even if you don't believe in the Buddha, you still insult the Buddha like this! Are they not afraid of retribution?!!! 】

People in this era are relatively simple, and if they believe in God, they are generally more sincere.

It's a terrible thing to have your faith insulted.

In fact, it is not only Sanada Shinshigeru, but until the 21st century, Buddhists and Hindus are still fighting over this.

【Calm down! Cold! Sanada-chan, come! Have a drink first! You don't have to be angry, what [Brahmanism] has long been condemned as evil by King Tianzhu? Religion, outlawed, is now extinct......]

(Note: This is a plot requirement, and the author himself has no preconceptions about Hinduism, and I hope it will not lead to trouble.) οΌ‰

In order to appease the angry Sanada brother, Narita Narita regretted why he told him such a profound thing, and at the same time fabricated something that did not exist to persuade him.

[Sorry, I lost my temper just now...... But such evil? It's good if the church perishes......]

[Actually...... What I mean by this is that there are always unknown aspects of human beings, like incarnations......]

[Oh, I see, Mr. Narita, what you mean is that there are many kinds of human personalities, and not all of them will be visible to outsiders, just like you and my master, sir, you are now the same as before my master, and my master is like you before, this is actually one of your personalities...... I see! I understand! 】

Sanada Nobuyhiro slapped his palms and said excitedly:

[I finally know why you and the master can be called friends, in fact, you are basically the same kind of people, so you will attract each other. 】

[Uh, yes, that's right.] 】

Narita breathed a sigh of relief.

This kid is actually quite smart, and he knows it all with a little dialing.

[It would have been so simple to say no, what kind of [Brahmanism], what kind of Vishnu, so that people can't understand it at all...... However, Mr. Narita, you know a lot like my master, hahahahaha......]

Saying that, he ......]

Sanada Nobuyoshi's voice gradually became quieter, and in fact he did not have enough confidence to argue his point.

[Little brother, let's not talk about it, let's just talk about the two people over there, your master and my family Fei...... Or that question, why is Tianhai's words beyond the taboo range of an elder to a junior, or a woman's dialogue, but the strong personality of Jia Fei does not have any disgust, but is in a happy mood? 】

[I really don't understand this, please Mr. Narita for advice.] 】

This time, Sanada Nobuyhiro is sincerely in charge of Narita's eldest relatives called [Mr.].

[Didn't I say it before, your master can speak.] 】

[But ......]

[Little brother, listen to me first, a successful lobbyist or orator will think before talking to others...... How do you know who you say what you say?

First of all, is it necessary to understand who is willing to listen to what words? Secondly, you must be able to organize the language to express what you want to say. In this way, it seems that the speech and expression are very easy, and you can grasp the proportion. 】

【……】

[Fei likes floral art, Tianhai started from this aspect, because no one in the family knows how to play flowers, and Tian is still the first [confidant] that Fei found, so the topic was easily opened. 】

[That's ......]

[With this relationship, it is much easier for Tianhai to speak. 】

[But ......]

[Listen to me first!] 】

Narita reiterated this sentence again.

[Suppose little brother, you are now in a situation where you dare not speak, but you will offend people by speaking with one mouth, for this reason, I suggest that you try to speak as little as possible, you also know that if you say more, you will lose, talk less and listen more; In addition, being a good listener is also very popular with others. 】

Sanada nodded.

[When communicating, don't always want to express your inner thoughts, want the other party to understand your thoughts; Because communication is interactive, if the other person needs to listen to your advice, you will respond and convey the good side...... You see, hasn't Tianhai been catering to the topic of Kai? 】

[Hmm.] 】

Sanada's brother is slowly understandable.

[In other words, you can empathize and think about the perspective of the other person, and the other person likes to listen to what you say, of course, it is a positive and encouraging side.

Speaking should also distinguish between right things and people; There are many angles to evaluate, discuss, and narrate a thing, and before you speak, you can consider which angle is more in line with the other person's mood, and if you can't help the other person solve the problem, then express your understanding. No matter what identity you are, you must keep a low-key and calm attitude to talk about this person, no need to say more. 】

[That's ......]

Like an initiation, Sanada Nobuyoshi felt that he had gained a lot tonight.

[Of course, the most important thing in chatting is to improve yourself, self-cultivation, your consciousness has improved, your realm has risen, and then, your mentality will be peaceful and calm...... Tianhai himself is a cultural person who is proficient in Buddhism, and the words he says are naturally not comparable to those of us ordinary people, and Jia Fei is naturally willing to accept him......]

After listening to what he said, Sanada Nobuyhiro felt very useful.

[Amazing, Mr. Narita, forgive me for my previous rudeness, it turns out that you are such a learned person......]

[Hahahaha, it's easy to say, in fact, your master's level is much higher than mine, little brother, if you want to get ahead, you have to learn more. 】

[Got it.] 】

Let's talk about that side.

What Tianhai would definitely say before [I'm not wise Mitsuhide anymore, but now, he's been following the words of this Kai lady

[Actually, I appreciate a girl like Miss very much, if it weren't for the fact that my two sons already have families, I really want to bring Miss back to Azuchi City to be a daughter-in-law, and having a symbol like Miss will improve the family character of the wise family a lot. 】

This time, it's almost [tune?] play], but Narita Kai is not angry, just as it is Master Tianhai's praise for him.

[What kind of character is Ling Gongzi? 】

[Kogoro, he can't be considered a qualified samurai yet, as for Fifteen Lang...... Well, almost, as long as he doesn't make any mistakes, he can become a powerful retainer to assist his brother. 】

[Still not qualified? 】

Narita Kai frowned, not believing too much in Amami's words.

[Mr. Kogoro, I've also heard that he is the world-famous [Izumo no Dragon], who is quite good at the art of war and strategy, and is in a high position in the shogunate...... Master, why do you say he can't? 】

This question was not only Narita Kai, but Sanada Nobuyoshi and Narita Nagata Nagajin on the side also stopped talking after hearing it and shifted their attention to this side.

Tianhai sighed, as a father, he knew his son best.

[My own son is best known to me, and his personal abilities may be sufficient, but the circumstances he has experienced are ...... Very bad. 】

[Oops? 】

Among the people present, except for Narita Nagakin, the two young people said that they could not understand Amami's words.

The environment in which Akechi Kogoro lived.

With the support of Oda Nobunaga.

Assisted by a good retainer.

And also......

Young people all over Japan, who do not envy or even envy him.

Whoever is self-motivated, who does not follow his example?

Is this environment still bad?

So what are the lives of us [countrymen]?

Tianhai took a sip of the tea that had been cold, and said with a solemn expression:

[Before leaving the Oda family, I was also a ronin, and after a long time of hard life, I also learned a lot of truths in life, and finally, I summed up such a truthβ€”β€”β€”β€”

All kinds of difficulties can be regarded as Daigo on the road of life! 】

[Huh? 】

[Hehe, after all, you are young, you can't understand the meaning of this sentence at all, only when you have rich life experience, you can ......]

【Master Tianhai! Please speak clearly! All right?! 】

Narita Kai's voice was a little high, and it could be seen that she was a little dissatisfied with what Tianhai had just said.

She never hides her thoughts, and what she says is her character.

[You old people are always like this, always like to play tricks in front of us juniors, say things that we can't understand, and then say in a contemptuous tone, [How can you children understand?] ], which will only make us angry! 】

【……】

Sanada Nobuyoshi did not speak, but he agreed with Narita's remarks.

No one wants to be treated like a child.

[Actually, it's the same whether I say it or not, it's not that I look down on you, but now that you're full of enthusiasm, you can't listen to the words of your elders at all, even if you listen to it, how much will you have the ability...... Forget it, I'll move on. 】

Tianhai took a deep breath.

[My experience over the years is that when people grow the fastest, the real growth is often in adversity, like the big people we know who have achieved great things, they have experienced a lot of hardships and adversity......

IMHO, I think that only those who come out of adversity can be regarded as real [human beings]......

Of course, you're going to tell me the same, so why are there so many amazing celebrities in good times?

Hum! No matter how you look at it, I have always been dismissive of those [great men] who appeared in the peaceful years, and that kind of people may be considered talents, but they are also destined to be mediocre talents, and if they are compared with the talents who came out of adversity, they will immediately become worthless. 】

[Your words are too arbitrary! 】

As soon as the words fell, Narita Kai retorted loudly.

Sanada Nobuyoshi remained silent, although he couldn't understand Master's words, but he was already thinking about it in his heart.

That's a step forward.

[I don't know if it's arbitrary or not, but now, I ...... about the future of Kogoro and the wise family Alas! Hahaha......]

After a long sigh, he burst out laughing.

[I'm really confused, I said before that I have become a monk, and the affairs of the wise family have nothing to do with me, but now I am ...... Sin, it seems that the cultivation is not enough, and he is still worried about all kinds of fetters in the world! 】

【Master ......】

Narita Kai was about to say something, but Tianhai smiled and said:

[Alright, Miss Narita, let's skip this question.] 】

[Okay......]

It was Narita's eldest relative, and he asked Sanada Nobuyhiro thoughtfully:

[Little brother, can you understand your master's words? 】

[It feels like he's right, and it seems like there's a problem somewhere...... I'm thinking about it slowly. 】

[Do you already know how to think?] Well, that's right, young people must have independent thoughts, and those who can only follow the crowd are the most unproductive. 】

Narita Nagakin, as a friend of Tianhai, coupled with his rich life experience, is the only one present who truly understands the latter.

Yes, Wise Kogoro now looks like he's officially proud, but in fact......

Back then, he and Tianhai discussed knowledge together, and when they talked about "Zhou Yi", Tianhai said that the hexagram of [No Ji Tailai] can completely correspond to the [Fate and Death] in Buddhism.

If the development of things reaches a certain limit, there will be an incredible qualitative changeβ€”β€”β€”β€”

According to the I Ching and Buddhism arguments, if one point of things is overdeveloped, the development of events will be transferred to another point.

Out of the depth of misfortune comes bliss.

Or it is called "prosperity and decline".

No one, or rather, no family, can maintain permanent prosperity, and of course, it is impossible to sustain permanent decay.

The Wise Family is the best example of this.

Back then, Akechi Mitsuna (the protagonist's grandfather) and Saito Michizo teamed up to destroy the Toki family, and after the war, the Akechi family, who was an ally of Michizo, enjoyed many years of glory and wealth.

But a man named Saito Yoshiryu changed the situation, and the Nagayama Castle of the Akechi family was destroyed, and most of the clansmen were killed in battle, except for Amami who fled with a small number of retainers.

After a long period of hard time, Amami became a retainer of Oda Nobunaga, and the wise family was revived.

A few years ago, the third generation of the wise family was born, and it was at that time that Tianhai made the decision to retire β€”β€”β€”β€” and let his son, who was just over twenty years old, become the new patriarch.

It stands to reason that Tianhai's age is not yet the time to retire, and even so, it does not mean that he can give up the power in his handsβ€”β€”β€”β€”

There are too many things like the regents behind the scenes, and many families are like this, and the old patriarchs will take a back seat in order to make the young patriarchs mature as soon as possible, so that their children and grandchildren will [learn as they go].

However, Tianhai seems to have really seen through everything in the world, and after retirement, he doesn't care about anything, does nothing, and completely hands over the power to his son who is not yet mature.

It's as if everything really doesn't have anything to do with him anymore.

In the past, even Narita's eldest family, who has been a friend for many years, still couldn't understand it after thinking about it for a long time.

But now, if you contact Tianhai about [Adversity] before, Narita's long family, who has always been wise and foolish, can finally know a thing or two.

There are two reasons for this.

The first ......

He's [creating adversity] for his own child, that wise Kogoro!

Indeed, with Wise Kogoro's age, experience, and ability, it is indeed not possible to be the leader of the [Wise] family.

And he also has to deal with a delicate relationship with Oda Nobunaga.

Moreover, the military operations of tens of thousands of [Wise Legions] will also be entrusted to him.

A twenty-year-old [child] doesn't look like he can bear such a heavy burden.

This realm has become quite serious, and if the wise Kogoro doesn't grasp it well, he will ......

But what is surprising is that none of these problems seem to have caused much trouble to Kogoro, but let him [step] through them one by one.

Tianhai, who is a father, should be happy at this time, right?

Wrong!

Tianhai's worries are only going to get worse.

Kogoro is still a child, his view of the world is not yet mature, and his way of dealing with the world is still naΓ―ve.

Every time, when he successfully solves a problem, he is happy, but he also has a feeling of "nothing but so".

As time goes on, this feeling will eventually become something to be fearedβ€”β€”β€”β€” and conceited!

So far, the path he has taken has been too smooth, which makes it natural for him to feel arrogantβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Maybe he can still [talk with his head down] now, be polite to everyone, and not annoy people, but what about the future?

The road of life will not always be easy, the gods and Buddhas will not be so lucky to anyone, if your life is smooth sailing, then I have to sympathize with youβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Your path must not have been paved for you by the gods and Buddhas, but by others, and who are they?

The puppeteer who manipulates your life!

Do you think you're really lucky in life? Hehe, you're a puppet doll in someone else's hand!

(Perhaps after writing down the above remarks, some people may express an opinion that the author let the protagonist [have an accident] for the sake of [adversity]...... I'm sorry, but from the first chapter of this book, I didn't intend to make the protagonist's life too easy, but considering that the protagonist is too young, it seems unrealistic to let him swim against the current early, and he doesn't have that ability, and it will be even worse if he is slumped...... That's why it's been delayed until now, and I think it's time.

No one's life is smooth, even Fukangan, who was favored by Qianlong as his own son, was often insulted and ridiculed by the old guards when he entered the palace as a guard in his early years, and even beaten, which are recorded in Fukangan's family letters...... The people who can be the guards of the Great Inner are all the children of the nobles of the Eight Banners, how old are you a Fukangan? When He Shen was a guard, he was also asked to drink.

Don't tell me your success comes easily...... TMD! Why is God so lucky for you alone?!

Behind those strong and successful people, who doesn't bear all kinds of sadness, it's just that many people don't tell you!

What I am most disgusted with is those so-called [True Destiny] Long Aotian and Mary Sue, not only are the characters in the book all mentally retarded idiots! Pretending to be stupid next to the protagonist every day, and those books are completely insulting the reader's IQ! οΌ‰

As for the second reason......

This one is a little subtle, it's the [No Ji Tailai].

If this is said more clearly, it should be [Kang Long has regrets].

Now Kogoro's samurai career is at its peak, and the development of the wise family has reached its peak.

[Izumo Dragon] flew too high, and forgot that he was only a dragon, not [Heaven], and no matter how powerful the dragon was, it couldn't compete with the sky.

The higher you fly, the more you will ignore where you are, and the worse you will fall in the end.

[No Ji Tailai], [Kang Long has regrets] is the interaction of yin and yang, and if you want to touch the extreme, you will be the opposite.

This cycle is born from each other, and it is not extinguished or extinguished in its inherent laws.

If it encounters the opposite, it will be out.

If you get out, you have to create a bigger reverse pole to get in.

At this point, perhaps the space is different.

From Wise Mitsuna to Wise Mitsuhide, and then from Wise Mitsuhide to Wise Kogoro (Shinko), the development of Wise Home over the past 60 years can be said to be very consistent with the above two hexagrams.

Flourish, decay, and flourish again!

According to the words in the Book of Changes, there will always be a period of prosperity and decline in a thing, which is doomed, and no one can escape it!

It's not that Tianhai doesn't care about the development of the family, it's the foundation he founded single-handedly, and no one cares more about it than him.

Who doesn't want the family to prosper for all generations?!

But......

Tianhai, who knows about life and the laws of the world, knows that this is unrealistic!

The stronger the Wise Family grows now, the more miserable it will fall in the future.

(This conclusion is really true, for example, Oda Nobunaga was such a great character, and in the end his descendants were cut off, and Shuliu went to serve as a slave to the Tokugawa shogun, and Tokugawa Ieyasu was not much better, you may have to tell me, his shogunate lasted for fifteen generations, isn't it good enough?) But I want to tell you that the Tokugawa family died in the seventh generation, and after the opening of Edo Castle, the emperor's government openly gave the Tokugawa family fine clothes and food, and high-ranking officials were generous, but in fact they closely monitored it, and the political rights of the Tokugawa family were greatly restricted, and this situation continued until the end of World War II, which was probably not thought of by Tokugawa Ieyasu at that time.)

On the contrary, if at this time, when he is not too strong, let him suffer a little [small setback], and the [rebirth] of the family can be completed.

But until now, this has not happened.

But it won't be long......

Thinking of this, Narita Narita suddenly laughed.

Kai Narita on the side was taken aback.

What's wrong with you?!!! Don't be surprised! It's scary, isn't it!! 】

[I'm sorry...... Tianhai! 】

[Huh? 】

[Didn't you tell me before?] Did Ling Gongzi ever divinate his fate in the temple of Omi Hino Castle? 】

[Yes, there is such a thing. 】

[The hexagram that comes out of divination is [Tian Ze Shoes], right? ] 】

[Yes.] 】

[That's right, [Tian Ze Shoes] roughly means that this person's life will have ups and downs, there will be moments of glory and difficulties, but as long as you can be strong and healthy in interpersonal communication, you can turn bad things into good things, and let evil things also show a good side, so that no matter how big the difficulties can be passed safely. 】

What is this? 】

Narita Kai smiled:

[If you can't grasp it, good things will become bad things, and in the end, ...... Not! 】

Seeing that the three of them were staring at her, she noticed that she should close her [crow's mouth].

[I'm sorry, Master......]

[It's okay, Miss Narita, what you said is right, and you're even completely right! ] 】

[Huh?! 】

On the contrary, Narita Kai was confused, and he said something he shouldn't have said, so why was he praised instead?

[Back then, Michisangong once told me that when the Toki brothers were fighting for the dominance of Mino, Lai Yigong once asked the onmyoji who wandered from Kyoto to divinate his fate, and the hexagram he finally got was also [Tian Ze Shoes]! 】

【……】

[Lai Yigong was in a period of frustration at the time, so he didn't take it seriously, and later, with the help of Daosangong and other retainers, he defeated the enemy and became the lord of Minong...... At that time, he understood that [Tian Ze Xu] meant that he was fighting sincerely and finally seizing the country. 】

[I see, Master! 】

Sanada Nobuyoshi said suddenly:

[After that, the reason why Lai Yigong lost the country was because he forgot that in [Tian Ze Shoes], if good things are not controlled, they will still become bad things in the end...... After seizing the country, he thought that he had understood his fate and the overall situation was decided, so he stopped being enthusiastic about state affairs, indulged in wine day and night, and was finally driven out of Mino. 】

[That's right!] Xinfan is right! 】

Tianhai nodded, his disciple has made great progress tonight.

Instead, Narita Kai muttered thoughtfully:

[Could it be that the fate of man is really ...... Is it really all controlled by the heavens......]

[By the way, Sanada ......]

Narita Nagata suddenly regained his original ruffianism, and the thief smiled:

[I also learned some face-to-face techniques some time ago, do you want me to divinate your fate? ] 】

【Good...... All right. 】

The previous conversation had filled Sanada Nobuyhiro with respect for Narita Narita, who he felt was actually a knowledgeable master, and it was good for him to listen to his teachings.

There was nothing wrong with his judgment, but ......

[As the so-called heavenly machine cannot be revealed, I can't say it too bluntly, I can only tell you more vaguely...... You will be a samurai in the future! 】

[Really?! I can be a samurai too?! 】

Sanada Nobuyhiro asked excitedly.

[Yes, a great samurai, who participated in three major battles, gained many territories, and finally became famous and returned to his hometown...... You don't have to ask me which three battles I have fought in, and you are not allowed to ask what kind of territory it is, or that sentence, the secret of heaven must not be revealed. 】

Narita's voice sounded a little mysterious, and he did look like a [prophet] in this way, but his expression of a thief and a thief had caused great damage to his image.

However, because Sanada Nobuyoshi had a very good impression of him, he actually folded his hands very religiously:

[I'm taught, Mr. Narita, I'm going to work harder.] 】

This is not the funniest thing, Narita's response is even more speechlessβ€”β€”β€”β€”

[Well, it's good that you know, fate is predestined, but it also requires your own unremitting struggle to achieve, if you relax your requirements for yourself and fall into depravity, then don't blame me for misleading people's children! 】

He nodded, speaking like the truth.

Narita Kai really can't listen to it, his old and unserious uncle, it doesn't matter if he doesn't have a proper behavior at home, and he is embarrassed to run outside.

This Sanada brother is also stupid, he can do whatever he wants, and he is quite a samurai with this kind of brain...... Do you know that people are playing tricks on you?!

So, she said coldly:

[Ah, I really can't see it, you still know how to divination? 】

[It's just a little bit.] 】

Narita replied breathlessly.

[So, you can help my niece also calculate her fate and see what I will be like in the future? 】

[That's it...... Hey?! 】

Narita Nagajin stared at Narita Kai's face for a moment, his eyes widened as if he had found something amazing.

Hum! This guy is really pretending to look like it......

Thinking so in his heart, Narita Kai asked with a smile on his lips:

[Elder Brother, have you found anything?] 】

[It's incredible! 】

[Huh?! 】

[Kai, if you weren't my niece, or we weren't relatives. 】

What are you talking nonsense? 】

[Did you know? Kai, although you are nothing now, in four or five years, you will become Musashi...... Oh no, the first beauty in Kanto. 】

[Really? 】

asked this on his mouth, and his heart was already ready to beat peopleβ€”β€”β€”β€”

The first beauty in Kanto? Are you really fooling yourself? If I don't see it myself, I won't be self-righteous to this point.

Besides, I am thirteen years old this year, and at this age when I am going to get married at the age of fourteen or fifteen, I will already be an old girl in four or five years, even if I am really the first beauty in Kanto at that time, what is the use?

[Of course, if you weren't my niece, I would have asked my son to marry you into the family.] 】

[Oh, that's a shame...... What else? Who will be my husband? 】

[Your husband is a samurai, and he is quite famous, a great lord with a vast territory, and he is also in charge of the national affairs of Japan. 】

When he heard that he was in charge of national affairs, even Tianhai's attention was attracted.

This question is of interest to everyone.

[It's so powerful......]

[You have a very good relationship with him, and you also gave him two children, one of whom serves as a lord in the northeast...... Not only that, but you've also earned the right to go into battle with your husband. 】

[Go to the battlefield to fight? 】

Narita Kai came interested.

[That's a good dare, although I don't like to kill people very much, but it's still quite interesting to fight on horseback.] 】

[The only regret is ......]

Speaking of this, Narita Nagata stared at Narita Kai cautiously, hesitating whether to continue.

[Regret what?] Just say it! 】

[Your age is only equivalent to your husband's daughter, and you are only his side room...... Eh, Kai, what are you going to do?! 】

Seeing Narita Kai pinching her own knuckles [clucking] straight sound, Narita Narita Nagata was startledβ€”β€”β€”β€”

She's going to hit someone!

【Elder Parent...... Oh no, second uncle. 】

[Uh, don't dare to be...... Kai, oh no, Miss Narita...... Oh no, Your Highness Princess, if you have anything to say, you don't have to be polite to me. 】

[Second uncle, have you ever divined for yourself? 】

γ€οΌŸ 】

[I don't know if you have a result of divination, that is...... You're going to get beaten up by your niece tonight! 】

[Help! 】

Narita Nagata was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind Sanada Nobuyoshige's back.

But in fact, he found the wrong [backer]β€”β€”β€”β€”

Sanada Nobuyoshi's martial arts are still immature, and only Tianhai can easily put his niece who is worth the sky......

[Hmph! Although Miss Ben is not the first beauty in Kanto, she can also be called a natural beauty, why should she give it to others, and she is a man of my father's age, as a little wife?! 】

【Calm down! Calm down! Kai, did you hear me clearly? Although that man is older, he is a big man in charge of national affairs, and he doesn't wronged you at all......]

[Hmph! It doesn't matter what kind of big man he is, I'm not Sun Shangxiang, in order to marry some hero, I entrusted myself to Liu Bei, who is more than 20 years older than me...... The man Miss Ben wants to marry doesn't need to be great or great, he just needs to cherish his family and care enough for me and my children to support the family. 】

(Pinch him: In the Peerless Snake series, Jia Fei Ji and Sun Shangxiang are good friends...... The above remarks are also plot lines)

Narita Nagata covered his bruised and swollen face after being beaten, and asked:

[With such a man, it doesn't matter if you give him a little wife? ] 】

[Nonsense! He can only have me as a woman, or...... I'm going to be big! 】

Sanada Nobuyoshi wiped the cold sweat left on his forehead and asked Tianhai, who was standing aside:

[Master, I would never dare to marry such a woman, if you want to bring her home as a daughter-in-law...... Please. 】

[No, no, no...... Master retracted his original words. 】

Tianhai watched Narita Narita being beaten, and said with palpitations:

[How did I come up with that nonsense in the first place...... Fortunately, both of my sons already have families, otherwise ......] ......

Turning the perspective back to Kansai, everyone must be very concerned about the situation on the battlefield here.

[I should really thank that young man just now, without him I would have been finished...... But where has he been now? I don't know if it's dead or alive, but if the enemy is captured, it will be terrible...... That's right! I'm not alone in the village, where did that come from? Is there really our army around here? 】

Carrying an inferior katana, Kerry rushed out of the enemy's position and ran forward with all his might, looking to run out of this dangerous village, not far in front of him was a small river with a wooden bridge over it.

At this very moment, the enemy's guns rang out, and about thirty iron cannons were neighing, and the noise made people's ears tingle.

A lot of bullets hit, and Ke'er was startled.

[I'll it, isn't it just a ronin group? How can there be so many iron cannons? 】

Ke'er just hid and immediately lay down.

After many years of samurai career, he understands that no matter how good his martial arts are, he can't compete with these iron lumps.

He took the katana in his arms and rolled it under a large withered poplar tree.

He hid behind a tree, and when he looked back, he saw many enemiesβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Although they are also wearing armor, they do not have the Maori family's [One-Character Three-Striped Star] on them, and it seems that they are not regular samurai soldiers, and it is very likely that they are the group of ronins who couldn't chase them just now.

However, the behavior of that group of people was very abnormal, and instead of pursuing them in an orderly manner as just now, they were like startled beasts that had collapsed into a herd!

Running around, scattering and fleeing, some burrowing into the wheat fields; Some jumped off the snowy ditch; Some hid under trees; Some were shot down.

[Huh? Could it be that our men are really nearby? …… That's not right, since it's our people, then we should be able to raise the flag......]

Ke'er's doubts are not unreasonable, and the current situation of the enemy is a little weird.

Just now, a Maori army rushed down the hill next to Aono Villageβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Motonao Kumagai!

He fought several battles with the Yamazaki Rangers on the mountain, and in the end they all ended in his defeat, no way, Yamazaki Nagatoku, as a member of the country, began to send troops to fight as early as the Yonglu period, whether it was strategy or experience, it was far above him as the [second generation of officials].

At noon today, Yamazaki Nagatoku suddenly descended the mountain and left them behind.

This made Kumagai Motozhi furious.

[The old thief of Yamazaki deceived people too much, everyone went down the mountain with me, and killed him without leaving a piece of armor. 】

That being said, after so many days of defeat, the morale of the Kumagai Army has long been at its lowest point.

Kill him without leaving a piece of armor? Don't end up killing us without a piece of armor!

It's good not to die, but when the Kumagai Army went down the mountain, they happened to bump into a group of ronin groups in Aono Village.

Because the previous Yamazaki Rangers did not fly the flag, and the current Ronin of unknown origin did not fly the flag, it was natural for Kumagai-sama to regard them as enemies.

With a dark sense of humor, that's how the cup came about......
