Chapter 170: Brother's Acumen
"Lately, in recent years?"
Xiu Yori stared at Xiuguang with some confusion, not understanding what he was trying to express. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I thought it was ...... No, it's nothing, Xiuguang, you can go on. ”
Hideyori seemed to want to say something. But after he finished half of his words, he closed his mouth again, choosing to continue listening to Xiuguang.
"Hmm...... It's about the events of the Hideya-sama, the Edo riots, and ...... Things about Kyushu. ”
Xiuguang kept his voice as low as possible, and said slowly as if it were indescribable.
When Xiulai heard these words, he obviously frowned and did not speak.
"First of all, first of all, the matter of Kyushu."
He seems to want to make a preface to these things in Kyushu that are not easy to arouse Hideyori's anger.
Therefore, Hidemitsu put aside the Hideya incident and the Edo riot incident that were earlier in time, and planned to recount the trip to Kyushu first.
"Hmm...... Actually, I ...... at the end of January."
"I know."
Before Xiuguang could finish the first sentence, he was interrupted by Xiulai's sudden words.
Wait a minute...... What the?
Elder Brother ...... Know?
Xiuguang raised his head, which had been lowered, and looked at his brother with disbelief in his eyes.
Xiuzong also looked at Xiu Lai with the same eyes. Chongcheng hadn't figured out what the two were talking about, and his calm face was covered with question marks.
No! It's impossible for an elder brother to know!
If the elder brother had known about the Edo riots for a long time, how could he sit idly by?
This is not in line with the character of the elder brother!
So it's absolutely impossible!
At least, it's impossible for the elder brother to know about the Edo riots!
"Brother, elder brother...... Know? ”
While denying this possibility in his heart, Xiuguang asked.
"Because, Hidemitsu, you haven't been in Osaka Castle for a while."
Xiu Lai said in a very serious tone,
"I don't know when you started not being there, but I can feel that you were out of town in February. It's not been long since you came back, right? ”
"Why...... Will my brother know I'm not in the city? ”
Xiuguang was really shocked at this time. He didn't expect his brother Xiulai to be able to detect such a thing.
"Because, the atmosphere is different."
Xiu Lai frowned, tilted his head, but looked very strange,
"When you're there, you always feel that the atmosphere in the room is a little different from when you're not there. And that time...... Shang Chang's mood also changed a little. So I think you're leaving. You just said Kyushu, so you should be going to Kyushu. ”
"No, I didn't expect my brother to be able to see it from such a place......
Xiuguang sighed with the shock and panic that had not yet disappeared.
Suddenly, he remembered what he had said to Nagasaki Daikan Murayama and others when he was in Kyushu.
"Underestimating my brother, you all have to regret it. Elder brother is not as stupid as the world says. ”
Now that has been fulfilled.
In some ways, Xiu Lai has his own acumen. Perhaps this is what is called terrible insight.
Just because of a slight change in the atmosphere, or the inadvertent expressions of several people, Xiu Lai can feel a different feeling from it.
In a sense, it's really sharp enough to make people a little flustered.
However, as Hidemitsu thought, Hideyori only knew that Hidemitsu was not in the city during this time, and he didn't know about the Edo riots and the affairs of the Hidemitsu family.
"What......?! Hidemitsu-sama went to Kyushu?! Just some time ago?! ”
After Chongcheng heard what he said clearly, his usually still face also showed a shocked expression.
He turned his head to look at Xiuzong and confirmed the truth of this matter with his eyes. Xiuzong noticed his eyes, so he nodded, proving the truth of the trip to Kyushu.
"Isn't it......"
Rao is steady re-completion, he also gasped, looked at Xiuguang, and then looked at Xiuzong with half-reprimanded eyes,
"Date Hidemune, you are not good at your responsibilities as a close attendant, how can you be so laissez-faire, Hidemitsu-sama, who is still a child, run away?"
Ignoring the white eyes of Xiuzong looking back, Chongcheng turned his head to Xiu Yori again and asked:
"Since you already knew that Hidemitsu-sama had left without permission, why didn't you inform Madame of this earlier?"
"I think if Xiuguang leaves, and he leaves silently, there must be a reason."
In the face of Chongcheng's very conscientious inquiries and accusations, Xiu Lai replied with a serious look and said word by word:
"Because, Xiuguang has never done such an outrageous thing. So if you leave suddenly and silently, there must be a reason. So I'd like to wait until Hidemitsu comes back and tell me in person. Isn't Xiuguang coming over now? ”
"Hideyori-sama, you're really ......."
Xiulai thought about it seriously and found a good reason to excuse himself and Xiuguang. After Chongcheng heard this, he shook his head helplessly.
Hideyori is a brother who loves his brother very much. This hasn't changed since then.
Maybe it's because the Toyotomi family itself is sparsely populated? Or is it because Hideyori is such a person in his own right? Or maybe it's because of the teachings of his mother, Mrs. Yodo?
Whatever the reason, Hideyori is indeed such a person.
Knowing this kind of abnormal thing, he will find a reason to excuse his brother. This kind of thing can only be done by Xiu Lai.
In this regard, Xiuguang was both a little moved, but also a little ashamed.
In fact, I have already done I don't know how many of those "out-of-line" things. And...... Some of these things are not out of the ordinary......
Every time I think of the brother who usually values him and gets angry because of these things, Xiuguang's heart is blocked and uncomfortable.
It's because I'm worried about this.,That's why I've been hesitating in my heart whether to tell Xiulai about these things.。
However, for such a brother, maybe lying to him is the most sorry thing for him.
So, be sure to tell him all these things.
"Brother, what I'm going to say tonight may be a little hard for you to accept. But I have to tell my brother about you. ”
Even if you will be treated coldly or angry, you must tell your brother.
"When we went to Kyushu, we actually brought back a lot of things that were very useful to the Toyotomi family. No, I should say that everything I want to tell my brother tonight about you is something that is beneficial to the Toyotomi family. Hyogoro, bring the stuff. ”
"Yes!"
Xiuzong nodded, stepped forward, took out a neat stack of paperwork from his clothes, and handed it to Xiulai's desk.
"All of this is what we have achieved in Kyushu. Ask the elder brother to review it. ”
Hidemitsu respectfully pleaded, then bent down and gently touched his forehead to the floor of the study, making the most respectful gesture he could make as a retainer of Hideyori.
