An hour later.

The castle tower of Ueno Castle was still full of retainers, but all eyes were on the wise Jubei who was kneeling in the center of the main hall.

At this time, the wise ten guards were wearing a light blue hunting suit, with a moon head on their heads, but their slightly immature faces revealed a touch of perseverance.

"Ahem!" The chief of Xiyuan Temple cleared his throat at this time, although he was not very willing to hold a yuan dress ceremony for a young man from a wise family, and it was also as his black hat pro, but due to the warm delay of Tsugawa Soji, the chief of Xiyuan Temple could only accept it helplessly.

The chief of Xiyuan Temple slowly came to the side of the wise ten guards, and then took a black hat from the side of the wise Mitsuhisa, and then solemnly brought the wise ten guards, and then tied the ties in ten amounts, and then stepped aside.

"The word of the wise family is light, and the word show given by Lord Xiuzong is for the wise ten soldiers to guard the light show!"

"I hope you will work hard for the Tsugawa family in the future!" The head of Xiyuan Temple then spoke.

"Hah!" Akechi Mitsuhide hurriedly replied loudly.

"Good!"

"Wise Ten Guards are extraordinary! It is really gratifying to congratulate the family on the addition of another talent! Soji Tsugawa stood up from the main seat at this time, and then laughed and said, "Saionji Temple, I wonder if you can prepare a gift?" If it's too perfunctory, my family doesn't follow it. ”

"Uh....." The chief of Xiyuan Temple smiled awkwardly, this is also the reason why the chief of Xiyuan Temple does not want to be this black hat pro, MMP has no benefit at all, and he has to dig it out himself, and the chief of Xiyuan Temple has a pain in his flesh.

However, Tsugawa Soji has put his words out, if he really doesn't show anything, then wouldn't it damage his "prestige"?

After thinking about it, the head of Saionji Temple was also ruthless, and then said, "This folding fan is a family treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in our family, and it is a gift from Emperor Guangyan to my family, which is very precious. ”

"Today.... Give it to you today. With that, the head of Xiyuan Temple reluctantly handed the folding fan to the hand of Akechi Mitsuhide.

After taking the folding fan, Wise Mitsuhide hurriedly saluted the head of Xiyuan Temple, and said with a grateful face, "Thank you Xiyuan Temple, such a family treasure will be received below!" ”

The chief of Xiyuan Temple didn't want to stay longer for a moment, and after receiving a salute from Wise Mitsuhide, he hurriedly returned to his position and sat down.

At this time, Tsugawa Soji also got up and said, "It coincides with the Ten Soldiers Guard's Yuanfu, and today I am married to the daughter of Xiuzong, which can be described as double happiness!" The family also has a gift for the Ten Soldiers! ”

"Tadabei!"

After Tsugawa Soji finished speaking, Yajima Tadabei dodged past him, and then handed it to Tsugawa Soji with a sword. Soji Tsugawa came to Akechi Mitsuhide's side, and then said, "This knife is called Kitagawa Ichimon, which was given by the father-in-law of the family when the family and Yukihime got married, and followed the family through more than ten battles!" ”

"Today, the family will give this knife to the Ten Guards, and I hope that the Ten Guards will also become the generals of the family in the future, don't live up to the high hopes of the family!" As he spoke, Soji Tsugawa looked at Akechi Mitsuhide with an encouraging expression.

After stretching out his hands to receive the text of Kitagawa from Tsugawa Soji, Akechi Mitsuhide nodded heavily, and then said excitedly, "Thank you for the generous gift of the lord, the ten soldiers are willing to hold this sword and fight for the lord!" Die for the Tsugawa family! ”

........

After the assessment was over, the retainers left Ueno Castle one after another and returned to their respective cities, and Tsugawa Soji did not forget what happened to Shadilo and others before, and immediately after explaining some things, he rode his war horse and took Yajima Tadabei and others to Minato Castle.

Ogasawara Nobutoki and Saigo Kizo also hurriedly dispatched a batch of Tsugawa family's products from Ueno Castle's castle town, Yuwa town, and many nearby exchanges to Minato Castle. According to the past practice, Shadilo and others will definitely buy some goods and sell them to other places along the way, so Saigo Kizo and others also hurriedly made preparations.

Tsukawa Hidemune also asked Tsugawa Genjiro to go to Aizu to bring the families of Tsugawa Hidemune and Tsugawa Hiromune to Ueno Castle, and then began a tour with Tsugawa Hiromune.

After the prince of Saionji was tired of Ueno Castle, he also took Takagi Yoshitoki and a few others to start wandering around the Tsugawa family, and after Tsugawa Soji was ready, he followed him to Kyoto.

At the same time, Akechi Mitsuhide also received a new appointment after Motofu, and became a leading samurai in the 2nd Squadron of Ueno Castle Garrison Ashigaru.

With an excited face, after receiving his own full equipment from the chengguan, Akechi Mitsuhide couldn't wait to get this set of ordinary-looking carcass pills on the boat, and then took a closer look at it with a smelly look, and walked towards the residence of the castle gate in Ueno Castle in a hurry.

Unlike the agricultural office and the foreign affairs office, the chengguan office does not have a post of commissioner. The castle management office is subordinate to the garrison of Ueno Castle, and there is only one squadron of Ashigaru, and its usual duty is only to be responsible for patrolling the castle town.

The ashigaru head of the Ueno Castle Chengguan Squadron, Asakura Kojiro, was waiting for the arrival of the Akechi Ten Guards in the Chengguan residence area early, and when he saw a young samurai wearing a carcass unique to the Chengguan and the word Chengcheng on his hood enter the house, Asakura Kojiro hurriedly greeted him, and then said, "You are Akechi Mitsuhide!" ”

"Hah!" Akechi Mitsuhide used to be the small surname of Tsugawa Soji, and the people he came into contact with tomorrow were all important ministers of the Tsugawa family, so he didn't know Asakura Kojiro, but when he saw the other party, he called out his name, and Akechi Mitsuhide didn't dare to be rude.

"Dare to ask what it is ........" After bowing to Kojiro Asakura, Akechi Mitsuhide then asked.

"In Shimoasakura Kojiro, the head of the Ueno Castle Castle Office." Kojiro Asakura replied with a smile.

Hearing that Asakura Kojiro was his top boss, Akechi Mitsuhide hurriedly saluted again, "I've seen Lord Asakura, Shibei has just arrived, and I will ask Lord Asakura for more advice in the future!" ”

"Don't dare to advise, Shibingwei, you are from the lord's small surname, and you are about to win the lord's niece, so it should be you who have a lot of support for you." Asakura Kojiro found a random place to sit down, and then said, "Today, Lord Xinda specially ordered this house to be vacated as your living room, I am really envious, even if there is no separate house under it." ”

Hearing Asakura Kojiro's words, Akechi Mitsuhide's face turned red, and then asked tentatively, "Dare to ask where Asakura-sama rests on weekdays?" ”

"The people of the Chengguan Squadron all live in the longhouse on the side of the castle town, and there are ten people in one room, and they also live there in the lower part of the city."

"Since everyone is like this, I, Wise Mitsuhide, am also a member of the Chengguan Squadron, how can I live here alone?" Akechi Mitsuhide said with a sincere face, "Please also thank Lord Asakura for your kindness, and in the future, I will live in the longhouse like Lord Asakura." ”

After Akechi Mitsuhide finished speaking, Asakura Kojiro glanced at Akechi Mitsuhide unexpectedly, and then laughed and said, "It's worthy of being the person next to the lord, I'll go and explain this matter to Lord Xintian!" ”

"You can go to the longhouse in the castle town by yourself, the bedding is all available, if you lack anything, you can tell me!" With that, Kojiro Asakura turned around and left the house.

After leaving Asakura Kojiro, the wise Shibei pulled out the Kitagawa Ichimon from his waist, felt the slightest coldness coming from the blade, and then muttered, "I'm wise Mitsuhide........"
