Chapter 212: Getting Out of the Troubled Waters

That rumor is a bit true. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info After hearing Xiukang's words, Xiuguang crossed his arms and thought and nodded.

Hondosa Watari is the faith. If it had been sent by him personally, it would not have been a trivial matter.

Now is the time when the Okubo family and the Honka family are fighting in secret. Since even Hidetada and the Okubo family have taken action, it is impossible for the Honka family to have no action at all.

"What did Mamoru Sado write in the letter?"

The rumored situation has progressed, and Xiuguang chooses to continue to ask.

"I don't know where you got the information about that rumor, Lady Hidemitsu, but the actual situation is probably not much worse."

Xiukang stretched out his hand to support his chin, first of all, he roughly affirmed the content of the rumor, but added later:

However, in Mamoru Sado's letter, if you don't read it carefully, you really can't find out what he means. Although there are indeed words of praise for me, and there are also similar meanings that want to nominate me, but in the end they are just words of side knocking. ”

Xiukang smiled and spread his hands in a helpless expression.

"Huh...... It seems that Hondasa-samaru is very cautious. Seems to be a very cautious person. ”

Xiuguang looked at Xiukang, who was talking in a tone that didn't concern me, and sighed.

This name, which was very famous in later generations, has finally officially appeared in Hidemitsu's ears. Xiuguang, who had been paying attention to this character for a long time, suddenly felt a little dangerous. Maybe it's because Honda is believing that this man is indeed a spicy and cunning old fox.

"Haha, probably. Well, that's the style of that cunning Mamoru Sado. After all, he didn't want to leave behind evidence that could become a stumbling block for the Hondo family in the future. Tsk, what a horrible guy, I don't want to fight him. ”

Faced with Xiuguang's speculation about Zhengxin, Xiukang laughed twice, and then added a "terrible" comment at the end, and shrugged his shoulders exaggeratedly. Let Hidemitsu's vigilance against Honda Masanbu have increased again.

"That's right."

Xiuguang also reached out to support his chin and frowned,

"Forgive me for taking the plunge. Sister, what do you think of what Hondosa-samaru means? ”

As soon as the words came out, Xiuguang raised his gaze a little, just in time to meet Xiukang.

In the face of Xiuguang's scrutinizing gaze, Xiukang just smiled ambiguously, and the gaze that met him also seemed absent-minded, as if he didn't intend to answer the question.

However, after thinking about it for a while, Xiukang still spoke cautiously:

"What do I think? That's a tough question to answer. ”

Her eyes turned sensitively, then still,

"Probably just one sentence. It is dangerous to mix in the current chaotic political situation. ”

After thinking about it a few times, Xiukang felt that answering this sentence was enough.

Although Hideyasu has never been in the political center of the Tokugawa family, with her intelligence, she will definitely not be unaware of the current situation of the Tokugawa family.

Perhaps, she knows more than Xiuguang, an outsider.

"Well...... After all, although on the surface, it is only the Honka family and the Okubo family on Sado's side that are in dispute, there must be many unknown forces lurking in the secret. It's not fun. Well, if you want to describe it, the current situation is like muddy waters. ”

I don't know what the other party is planning, I don't know who else is behind the other party, and I don't know what forces are watching or participating in it...... This is probably the current situation in troubled waters.

Xiukang shook his head with a slightly solemn expression, and then continued:

"I'm not stupid. Even if there are more benefits, if they are mixed in now, the consequences are difficult to guarantee. What's more, my father is not blind, let alone stupid. ”

"Oh, that's right...... Uh-huh, what the righteous sister means, I understand. ”

After hearing this, Xiuguang looked down and nodded, with a relieved expression on his face.

Xiukang didn't need to say anything more. Both sides understand this truth, and they can stop there.

"Sister Xiu Kangyi, thank you very much for being able to answer my question. But in the end, I actually have a question I want to ask my sister, what do you think......"

After a short pause at the end of the conversation, Xiuguang raised his head again and met his gaze with Xiukang's eyes,

"Do you think the Okubo family can win against the Honka?"

As soon as Xiuguang finished speaking, he saw the corners of Xiukang's hooked mouth.

"That's the question...... Though I'm very sorry for all of you of the Okubo family and Hidetada, ......"

She showed an indifferent expression and spread her hands,

"Can't win. Mamoru Sado, as well as his son, are not simple people. They are not something that the young Hidetada and the money-loving 'Noh Teacher' can deal with. ”

Xiuyasu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and in a very short sentence, he brutally hammered down the conclusion of this inconclusive political struggle.

The nickname "Noh Master" in her mouth should refer to Okubo Chang'an, which is not wrong. Because Okubo Chang's real family seems to be actually just a Noh musician.

"I see. I know. Thank you, Sister Yi. ”

After receiving such an answer, Xiuguang nodded in thanks.

It's worthy of Major General Yuuki Hideyasu. Xiuguang thought about it and felt that Xiukang was really powerful.

The Okubo Chang'an Incident, which will occur in a few years' time, may be a confirmation of Hideyasu's conclusion.

This Hideyasu, who was praised by Taiko Hideyoshi himself when he was young, seems to be more than just a martial artist.

"So that's the end of the formal conversation. Hidemitsu-sama, you're tired too, aren't you? ”

"yes, I see."

After the formal discussion of these matters, the atmosphere in the room returned from seriousness to the relaxation of the beginning when Hao Ji and Xiu Yasu said goodbye.

Unlocking from the tension, Xiuguang breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his waist and stretched back, feeling that the whole room was much brighter than when he was just talking about it. Well, of course this must have been just his delusion.

In short, it seems that Hideyasu does not plan to get involved in this troubled situation within the Tokugawa family for the time being. Getting this information still made Xiuguang feel a little relieved.

Xiukang's decision is undoubtedly a very sober and rational decision. Because of her decision, perhaps the Echizen Matsudaira family will be able to get out of this chaos and survive.

They will not be confused by the interests of the moment, nor will they be used by certain forces in struggle. Hidemitsu has a feeling of respect for this excellent person who was once praised by Taiko Hideyoshi himself.
