[Everyone cheer up, if you perform well, not only will you be rewarded, maybe, those samurai lords will look at us and recruit us as samurai, haha! 】

[That's right!] Right! 】

Date Masamune pouted when he heard this, like these people, he still wanted to be a samurai, it was really a pipe dream.

But then again, even Shengdou Xiaomin knows that he is down, and it seems that he is also a sad enough person.

Then he heard the men say,

[This is called retribution, Date Masamune, he also has today! ] Deserve! 】

[Yes! He fought everywhere, causing the people in this area, dying and fleeing, and there was no way to live a good life. 】

[And he also levied a heavy tax on us, and I fled from my hometown because I couldn't pay the tax.] 】

[Me too, the Date family has collected all the food from our family, and my brother is starving to death, so I have no choice but to come out and wander around to see if there is a way to eat, and then buy some food for the family. 】

[So, you have to kill a few more people tomorrow so that you can get more money.] 】

[Well, I really wish Date Masamune appeared in front of me, and I will immediately cut off his head and use it to worship my brother, and then sacrifice it to those old men! 】

[Okay, okay, if you have an idea, that bastard of Date Masamune, it's impossible for him to really appear here, so don't daydream.] 】

Unlikely to appear here?

Date Masamune, who was next to them at this time, almost wanted to have a seizure, but in the end he endured it.

It turns out that I am such an image in the eyes of everyone.

Date Masamune was conflicted. He really wanted to draw his sword and cut down these unscrupulous ronins. With martial arts alone, he knew that these people combined. Nor is it their own opponent.

But gritting his teeth, he put the knife in his hand down again.

It turns out that he is such an image in the eyes of the world, and he still thinks that he is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness......

That night, Date Masamune had a dream.

His blindness was cured!

With bright eyes, walking in a beautiful garden, at this time, Mrs. Aiji, who was far away from her hometown, came to her face without knowing what was going on.

[Aiko.] Why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be in Yonezawa Castle? 】

Ai Ji is the daughter of Tamura Kiyoxian, the lord of Miharu Castle, whose name is Aiko, and she is very talented, and it is said that when she was middle-aged, although she was in her forties, she was still dignified and beautiful, and there was no wrinkle on her face. She gave birth to Gorou Hachihime and Date Tadamune for Date Masamune, and when she sat with her children, she was often mistaken for the eldest sister of the two.

Date Masamune himself respected Madame very much. No matter what happened to him, he would consult with his wife, and most of the letters he wrote when he left home were addressed to his wife.

[Hee-hee. I heard that the lord had seized the world, so the concubine came to say goodbye. 】

Aiki laughed, then hugged Date Masamune.

【Aiko...... What did you say...... I took the world? 】

Date Masamune's thinking thoughts. After hearing his wife's words, they all froze.

A defeated general himself. How did you take over the world? And when did this happen? I don't have any impression at all.

[Yes, Kojuro and the army they lead. It has already broken Kyoto Prefecture and Nara Prefecture, and although Osaka Prefecture is still in the hands of the Oda family, it has been surrounded by the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Lord Satsukisai, and it is shaking in the wind and rain......]

(The [Japanese Three Prefectures] in this book is the urban system established by Oda Nobunaga, which is not the same as the [Japanese Three Prefectures] in reality, just take a look, don't compare with the author)

[Wind and rain? Are you sure? …… Isn't Zuo Yuezhai already dead? 】

Date Masamune listened to Aihime's words, and his mind was a little dizzy for a while, he remembered that the current situation was obviously the Date family was the real [stormy], how did it become the Oda family? Moreover, Zuo Yuezhai is obviously really dead, how can it be ......

[Oh, my lord, you are so confused! 】

Seeing that her husband didn't seem to understand the situation, Aiki snorted and patted him on the shoulder.

[Confused? 】

[Yes, the old man of the Ghost Court did not die at all, the one who died on the battlefield was his shadow warrior, and the real him, after killing the wise Kogoro, took a detour and ran back to the bear mansion......]

[Stop! …… Aiko, the more you talk about me, the more confused your mind becomes, and Asenchi Kogoro didn't die in Endo...... Oh no, he didn't die at all, as if he had been rescued......]

[Nope! My lord, Wise Kogoro is indeed dead, and the two old men of Oniba and Endo brought back his head, and the adults saw it at the time, and laughed, and said [This guy has finally fallen into my hands, come on!] His eyes were gouged out, his nose and ears cut off, his head washed, and hung under the tower! That's what you said back then, you forgot? 】

It was obviously very bloody and cruel to say it, but there was no fear on Ai Ji's face, and she even laughed twice and said:

[After winning this battle, you led your troops westward, and along the way, you captured many cities. 】

[I also counterattacked the Oda family? 】

Date Masamune couldn't figure it out at all, when did these things happen? Why is I completely unimpressed?

[Yes, the surrounding daimyo groups rose up accordingly, and Nagamune's Ibu Motokin, Mori Terumoto, Shimazu Yoshihisa, Hojo Clan and others began to cooperate with the adult's offensive and attack the Oda family, by the way, even Nobunaga's in-laws, Tokugawa Ieyasu, also fought back and occupied the Oda family's Ryuxing land Owari...... They collectively wrote a petition to His Majesty the Emperor. 】

Date Masamune was stunned when he heard it, he really couldn't imagine that the situation in the world had undergone such a [wonderful] change!

When did all this happen? Why can't I remember it?

[Petition? What would you like? 】

[Oh, my lord, why have you forgotten everything, why don't you remember such a major event...... They petitioned His Majesty the Emperor to canonize you as the Great General of the Expedition! 】

[General Zhengyi? 】

Date Masamune was stunned, he had a strong long-cherished desire to unify Japan and become a general since he was a child, but one day, when this name was really sent to him, he began to hesitate......

Is everything in front of you real?!

The Date family was defeated and began groveling peace talks.

The two old men, Oniwa and Endo, are dead.

Akechi Kogoro is not dead, and his head is not in his hands.

The most important thing is that he did not seize the world at all, let alone become a general of Zhengyi.

What's going on in front of you?

Is it a dream?

Thinking of this, Date Masamune's heart tightened, and he was suddenly a little scared.

Although he didn't quite believe that what Ai Ji said was true, deep down, subconsciously, he hoped that all that Ai Ji said was true!

It is the grand dream of my life to unify Japan and become the master, and if it can really be realized...... Even if it's in a dream, it doesn't matter......

But Date Masamune is afraid that all this is really just a dream.

Finally, Date Masamune couldn't help it anymore and pinched his face, only to find that it was full of pain.

Ah, isn't all this a dream?

At this time, Date Masamune subconsciously touched his blindness again, there was a real feeling there, and he could indeed see it.

It's true! It's all true!

A joy that is difficult to describe in words surged into Date Masamune's heart.

Haha, my eyes are better! I'm going to be a general! Haha, everything is true, haha...... Hey? Son?

When Date Masamune finally finished laughing, he wanted to say a few words to his wife, but found that Ai Ji didn't know when it was gone.

【Aiko, where have you been?】 】

Date Masamune had to suppress his joy for a while and began to look for his wife.

At this time, the sky suddenly changed.

Suddenly, the pouring rain poured down, and Date Masamune couldn't care about looking for his wife, so he found a shade and hid.

The people of that era had no common sense of safety at all, and they took shelter from the rain under the trees, which was completely self-defeating.

Just when Date Masamune was glad that he was not drenched in soup, a voice suddenly came from the torrential rain.

【Brahma Pill! 】

[Huh? 】

Date Masamune froze.

There are only two people who call themselves [Brahma Maru], one is his father Date Huizong, and the other is his own teacher, Zen Master Soyi Toraya, as for his mother, because of the discord between mother and son, she never called her own name, but replaced it with [Misakumo].

[Who is it?] Father? Or a Zen master? 】

The answer was soon revealed.

An old monk with a charitable face but a thin and withered face, holding a Zen staff, walked out of the wind and rain.

He is none other than the Zen master Huzai.

Zen Master Toriya's face was full of anger, and his eyes glared at Date Masamune, not caring that his body was already wet with heavy rain.

[Master, hurry up and go under the tree, it's raining heavily outside.] 】

Date Masamune was about to say hello to his master, but he didn't expect the master to suddenly shout:

[You bastard, why don't you die! 】

[Huh?! 】

The joy on Date Masamune's face froze in an instant, and the greeting action in his hand also stiffened.

I haven't seen Master for many years, why did I scold Master who has always loved me as my own grandson when I met?

Zen Master Huzai exuded anger all over his body, and he said coldly:

[And the face to call me master, I don't dare to recognize you as an apprentice!] 】

As he spoke, Zen Master Toriya suddenly raised a hand and slapped it Date Masamune's cheek.

[Ahh (To be continued.) )
