Chapter Eighty-Five: Rare Leisure

"yes, do you think Takechiyo will ally with the main family?" In Oda Nobunaga's room, he was listening to a report from Hosokawa Nobumoto's trip to Mikawa Province.

"Yes, my lord. His Majesty observed the words and looks, and it was expected that it would not be bad, and it was estimated that it would not be long before the Matsudaira family would definitely send someone to come to contact him for the first time. Hosokawa Nobumoto said with great certainty.

"Oh? Observing words? So how do you see how I feel now? Oda Nobunaga asked expressionlessly.

"Uh~~" Hosokawa Nobumoto was speechless for a while, [What do you mean? An alliance with Matsudaira Motoyasu is what he has always hoped for, and since he is about to succeed, he should be happy, why do you ask from this? Hosokawa Nobumoto, who couldn't figure out the situation, had to answer respectfully, "The lord is deeply hidden, and his subordinates really can't see the lord's mood, and he hopes that the lord will forgive his sins." ”

"Hahahaha! Well, since things are off to a good start, let's go with the flow. You've worked hard, so go back and rest early. Oda Nobunaga didn't say it clearly, and directly issued an expulsion order, in fact, he already knew that Hosokawa Nobumoto had carried him on the royal order of Shangluo, but he didn't make it clear.

Hosokawa Nobumoto, who returned to Devon City, couldn't figure it out, and finally decided that he didn't want to, and now it was just the right time to take advantage of the current peacetime without war to quickly develop the territory.

"Giggle, cluck, it's so lively, it's delicious!" Devon Castle's castle town is unique, and it is lit up at night with a crowd of people. Hosokawa Nobumoto is leading Oda Inu, Mochizuki and Naotora Ii to go shopping in the snack street.

Now Ii Naotora has been Hosokawa Nobumoto's side room, and she is now the largest in the family, usually training the newly recruited horse riding team during the day, and returning to the residence at night to take care of the two little sisters, just like a big sister.

"Your Highness, I heard that you invented this oden, how did you come up with it? This stuff is delicious, hee-hee. Mochizuki was also eating crispy and sweet white jade radish on the side, and she hadn't played with her beloved for a long time.

"It's a secret, hehe." Looking at these two cute little rabbits, Hosokawa Nobumoto felt guilty from the bottom of his heart, running around all day long, and the castle town has been built for so long, and he has not accompanied them to go shopping.

"Then can Your Highness take us out to play often in the future?" The Oda dog muttered, and his mouth was full of sticky cakes. She is still a child, and she has not yet realized that she is a housemother, but this is okay, Hosokawa Nobumoto does not want her to take on such a heavy responsibility at such a young age.

"Okay, but even if I'm not here, you can go out shopping, after all, it's just outside the city, and the security is very good." Hosokawa Nobumoto took a bite of the fish ball and agreed.

"Don't! Without the company of His Royal Highness, the concubine always feels that something is missing, and only when His Royal Highness is by her side, the concubine can feel warm. Mochizuki pouted in disagreement, and then stuck up and leaned on Hosokawa Nobumoto's shoulder.

"Sister Tiger, Sister Tiger, you can eat too, don't just take it." The Oda dog on the side took a fish tofu and happily handed it to Ii Naotora to eat.

"The concubine body does not dare, and the Devon Hall must not be called the concubine sister." Jing Yi Naohu is older and knows this distinction between priority and priority.

"It doesn't matter, my family doesn't have that set of customs, it's good for everyone to be together in harmony, don't be made by these rules and regulations." Hosokawa Nobumoto doesn't mind these clichés at all.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, what is this pavilion for?" Seeing that everything was fresh, Oda pointed to a three-story attic at the end.

"Oh, there's the casino. Do you want to go in and play two? When Hosokawa Nobumoto saw his own casino, he was immediately interested, and he hadn't been there since it opened.

"Oh yes! Go to the casino. Oda jumped up and ran towards the casino.

"Hehe~~ Slow down, it won't run again." Mochizuki also caught up, and she and Oda Inu were already familiar enough to wear a pair of pants.

"Wow! It's huge! "As soon as you enter the casino, the hall on the first floor is spacious and bright, and the area in the casino is clearly divided, with games such as blackjack, roulette, baccarat, sic bo, pai gow, fan stall, etc., coupled with comfortable military horses, which can make gamblers gamble around the low table for a long time, interspersed with maids serving tea and water, and occasionally earn tips from a few nouveau riche.

"Quick! Come and see, wow, it's so lively. Oda Inu dragged Ii Naotora to a large table and watched a bunch of people gather around the table where he was playing poker.

"Four hundred green dragons!" A gambler sweated and huddled in the middle of the crowd, yelling hysterically.

"Ahem! Open~~! "The dealer is also sweating, and he sings when he opens the lid of the box." Tianmen~~Corner back~~! People and halls are there~~! Come on, come on~~! Take the copper coin~~! ”

"One hundred ~ ~ one hundred and fifty!"

With the dealer's singing and harmony one after another, the gamblers who gambled and lost around were under such singing, and gradually entered their copper coins into the waist of the sweaty dealer.

Seeing this scene, Oda Dog stuck out his tongue and withdrew, and after a while, the hall director came over to collect the money three times, and many gamblers who gambled red-eyed had already begun to sell their sons and daughters.

"Let's go! Let's go to the third floor, where the view is the widest. Hosokawa Nobumoto greeted his wife and ascended the stairs to the top floor.

"Your Excellency! You're here, the villain doesn't know that the owner of the museum is coming, and he has missed the welcome, please punish the owner of the museum! The shopkeeper in charge of the casino hurriedly came down from the second floor and knelt down to salute, he was a member of the Mochizuki organization, so he naturally knew Hosokawa Nobumoto, the boss behind the scenes.

"Well, get up, lead the way." Originally, this time I came to shop casually, and Hosokawa Nobumoto didn't embarrass the shopkeeper.

"It's the hall owner, please come with the villain." The shopkeeper bowed his head and led Hosokawa Nobumoto and his party: "The hall on the first floor is complicated, mainly some townspeople, merchants and even some bandits, but the guards of this store are all carefully selected and loyal members. ”

The shopkeeper had already climbed to the second floor as he introduced, and continued to the third floor with a turn: "The second floor is composed of small private rooms, which are mainly hosted by some samurai or wealthy merchants, and the private rooms are served by special personnel to highlight the dignity of the adults. ”

"These three floors are unique to the owner of the museum, and they are usually closed to the public without the order of the owner. Bedding and utensils are all available, so you can stay at any time or hold a banquet. There was still one step left to reach the third floor, and the shopkeeper knelt down very obediently, waiting for Hosokawa Nobumoto to ascend first.

"Well, that's good." Hosokawa Nobumoto circled, the suite was clean, and it seemed that the daily maintenance work was also very careful. "Come on, come on, I'm just tired, let's play and jerk off together!"
