Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sword Master (Recommended by Manbaikagam)
At the door of Nijo Yakushi's dormitory, there was silence at the scene, only Hayashi Shigenobu silently put away the love knife "Shinkoku", there was not a drop of dirty blood stains on it, but there was a headless corpse on the ground, and a stall of dirty blood was pouring out.
It turned out that Sakagami was just about to draw his sword, but unfortunately Hayashizaki Shigenobu's speed was as fast as a lightning bolt, and Sakagami's head had already been divided into two by "Shinkoku", and his hand had just touched the hilt.
The gangsters on the other side had already opened their mouths in surprise, and their eyes looked directly at the cold face of Shigenobu Hayashizaki, and countless *** ran through the hearts of this group of gangsters. [I~~~rub~~~] The swordsman was killed in seconds.
Hosokawa Nobugen stepped forward and patted Hayashizaki Shigenobu on the shoulder, Hayashizaki Shigenobu humbly bowed his head and retreated, his long-cherished wish for many years has been achieved, and the only goal in the future is to protect the Hosokawa family and protect Hosokawa Nobumoto, who has reborn himself.
"Okay, do you guys have anything else to say?" Hosokawa Nobumoto clapped his hands and said nonchalantly.
"Uh~~ Big, my lord, are you sure this is the weakest of you?" Kan Jiulang, a fellow villager close to Kanemori, asked tremblingly.
"Of course! Look at these two, but they are today's sword masters. Hosokawa Nobumoto pointed to Keikane Honeda and Soharu Shingo.
"Hehe" Keikane Honda scratched his head embarrassedly, while the Queen of God Soji had a cheeky chest and was extremely angry.
"And this one is even more amazing, he was just worshiped as a sword saint by the Gongfang Hall a few days ago." Another finger pointed at Hidetsuna Kamizumi and said.
In the past few days since he arrived in Kyoto, in fact, Hosokawa Nobumoto has been dragging the relationship through the back door, knowing that Ashikaga Yoshiki loves swordsmanship, and he also has the reputation of a swordsman general, so he asked Umiizumi Hidetsuna and others to show off his swordsmanship, which made General Yoshiteru's skills itchy and gave him a try. It just so happened that the Marume Tibetan, who was known as the No. 1 swordsman in Kyushu, was also there, and the two who happened to split the battle admitted defeat on the spot, and Kamiizumi Hidetsuna was awarded the title of "No. 1 Sword Saint in the World".
"Sword .. Juggernaut! Just hearing these two words, this group of gangsters was paralyzed on the spot, Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at Hidetsuna Kamiizumi behind him suspiciously, and thought to himself [I'm rubbing, you shouldn't use domineering]
Seeing that the lord was looking at him, he obviously misunderstood, stepped forward and pulled out the sword, and made a mysterious "turn". Suddenly, the cold light flashed, and the sword aura was compelling, as if an asura had descended into the world.
"Ahh Run! "Asura!" "Mom!" This group of gangsters was suddenly frightened and scattered, [It's really the shadow of a famous tree, just the word Sword Saint can scare off the gangsters, when will my name be shouted can also have this effect, and in the future, when I shouted Hosokawa Nobumoto on the battlefield, the other side was all scared away, and I won directly. Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at the streets that had run empty, and also went home.
As for Oda Nobunaga's visit to General Yoshiki, with the foreshadowing of Hosokawa Nobumoto earlier, the process was very smooth, and the original Owari guardian Oda Nobukiyo was pushed to the end, and Oda Nobunaga was directly appointed as the Owari guardian generation. If it weren't for the fact that the position of guardian has always been held by Ashikaga Ichi, I'm afraid that Ashikaga Yoshiteru would simply sell the guardian to Oda Nobunaga.
Having perfectly achieved the purpose of coming to Kyoto, Oda Nobunaga tore off the last fig leaf, for which Oda Nobunaga also visited Kaimachi and Nara with great interest, and Hosokawa Nobumoto also took the opportunity to inspect the situation of Kaimachi Konishiya and the situation of this year's exploration trade.
Konishi Ryonzo is personally in charge of this year's exploration trade, and has already gone to Daming and has not returned, but according to reliable sources, Hu Zongxian has already taken root in Hirado.
The original governor of the Hirado family, Matsuura Takannobu, and his two sons were all eradicated by Hu Zongxian, and the entire Hirado was firmly controlled by their Hu family.
and Wang Zhi was also promoted, not only opened up the Southeast Asian market, but also sank the ship that illegally entered the Ming Dynasty in Dayouyi Town at the end of last year, and intercepted a large amount of goods. It is said that this was the fleet that Otomo Yoshizhen wanted to use the relationship of Zheng Shungong, the envoy to Japan, to carry out exploration and trade with the Ming Dynasty, and he also protested to Wang Zhi for this reason. But Commander Wang only replied with a few words: There is no "Exploration Trade License", sorry, illegal, sunk!
was so angry that Otomo Yoshizhen stomped his feet, and lost this large amount of wealth, making the Otomo family's finances tight and stretched. It just so happened that the big fools in the West saw that Otomo Yoshizhen was so sad, and hurriedly invited God to comfort him, and took the opportunity to exchange the glass balls of the child's eggs for his gold, silver and bronze, which made the Otomo family even worse and didn't know it.
"Twenty percent of this year's exploration trade will be offered to the Gongfang Palace, and in the future, you will be mainly responsible for all matters of your own family, the shogunate, and the imperial court." At the residence of Yagyu Soyan in Nara, Hosokawa Nobumoto is making final arrangements for Nakajima Akinobu, and he will leave for Owari tomorrow.
"Yes! His Majesty received the order, and since His Majesty identified himself to the Gongfang Palace, the Gongfang Palace often went to the Minister's place to taste tea, and took the opportunity to rely on the intelligence power of his family to transmit news to the outside world. "Nakajima Akiyan is no longer the kind of small businessman he used to be, because he has come into contact with too many dignitaries, he has gradually become a little corrupt, and his clothes are more luxurious.
"You can do some things for the Gongfang Palace, but you must write another copy of the letter and the like, don't forget your identity." Hosokawa Nobumoto reminded him at the right time, because there were too many cases of corruption in later generations.
"Yes! The minister will definitely do his duty, please rest assured! Nakajima quickly lowered his head, only to feel that his back was already soaked.
"Well, then I'm relieved, next year Niu Chiyo will be in Yuanfu, as the first surname to follow me, so many years can be regarded as outstanding, let me be his black hat pro." Immediately afterwards, he gave Nakajima Mingyan a sweet date, and he was so moved that he shouted to death.
Hosokawa Nobumoto waved his hand to signal him to go out, sat on the couch and thought for a while, and exclaimed softly, "Hanzo! ”
"Yes! Subordinates are here! "Roll over from the beam and jump over a ninja.
"As the head of the hidden fog of the family, how is the payment system that you are responsible for building?" Hosokawa Nobumoto asked slowly.
"Back to the lord, the family and the army are all fully formed." Hattori Hanzo replied immediately.
"There are only a few hundred stones in the territory, and there are dozens of peasants and soldiers in the army, what is there to monitor, I am asking if your family's retainers can be monitored?" Hosokawa Nobumoto was not annoyed, and asked in a calm tone.
"It's... Back to the lord, they have all followed the lord since childhood, and they are loyal. Hattori Hanzo hesitated, many of them were his teenage playmates.
"Spying on them is also a kind of protection for them, what if someday someone uses a trick to divide us? What if one day a hostile element comes to assassinate them? Hosokawa Nobumoto gradually enlightened Hattori Hanzo and asked him to expand the metsu system and gather more information.
Early the next morning, Oda Nobunaga and his entourage were ready to leave for Owari. The local wealthy Yanagi Zongyan came to see him off, and there was a bald monk who also had to follow Hosokawa Nobuyuan.
The two of them were defeated by the sword and spear of Shangquan Xiugang in the treasure courtyard, and knelt on the ground to apprentice. Because Yanagi Zongyan is a local wealthy family, it is inconvenient to follow the teacher if he has a family and a room, but this monk named Yinrong of the Treasure Academy simply joined the Hosokawa family, served as a horse house, and set off together.
