Chapter 176: The Expected Fury
"I'll just tell you the truth with my brother. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Xiuguang, who had already come to his senses, gently put down the brush in his hand and raised his head to look directly into his brother's eyes.
"The Edo riots, all of them, were planned by me alone."
Ah, finally spoken.
Although Xiuguang, who explained this sentence in one breath, was extremely nervous and dizzy at this time, there was also a sense of relief that the pressure on his shoulders and heart had suddenly disappeared. Then, he closed his eyes slightly.
Then, next, it's time to see Xiulai's attitude.
ββ¦β¦ What did you say?! Say it again! β
To be honest, Hidemitsu never thought that his brother Hideyori would accept this result and explanation so simply.
Even if he didn't have to open his eyes, Xiuguang could feel his brother's anger and disbelief right now.
"Thisβthis can't be what you did! My brother can't be this kind of person who would do something unreasonable! β
Xiu Lai's constant repetition of this sentence made Xiuguang suddenly feel very sad.
"Brother, sir. Please don't run away from reality anymore. I planned the Edo riots, and Hidemitsu didn't lie. β
When Xiuguang reiterated this sentence, he saw Chongcheng and Xiuzong on the side with the corner of his eye.
Of course, the current Chongcheng is in the same mood as Xiulai, and he almost couldn't help but interject. But Xiuzong pulled him.
"I came up with this plan after learning about these contradictions within the Iga Concentric Society from the information of the two Wind Demon ninjas who stayed in Edo."
Ignoring his brother Hideyori's shocked expression and Shigenari's almost shouting surprise, Hidemitsu sighed silently in his heart, and then changed his tone to an unusually cold tone and continued to explain.
"It's a great opportunity. Hattori had already had a plan to get rid of his subordinates, so we could use some methods to expand the matter, turning what might have been just an ordinary incident of conflict between superiors and subordinates into something that could affect the whole of Edo. Then, based on all the information provided by the Wind Demon Ninja, I made a detailed plan for this time. β
The process of creating the Edo riots is actually very simple and not complicated.
"First of all, let the Wind Demon Ninja spread rumors within the Iga Kinkokai that Hattori was planning to purge them of their opponents, and that the Tokugawa family agreed. Mix some factual things with false things, and things will be false and real, true and false, as if in a cloud and fog, so that they can't tell the truth from the fake at all. β
Then there will be panic and panic within the Society. Naturally they don't sit idly by, and they use their functions as ninjas to investigate the truth of this matter. After they found out that the leader really wanted to do something to them, coupled with the instigation of some radical colleagues inside, the next thing didn't need to be planned by us at all, and it happened naturally. β
That's all there is to it. While explaining, Hidemitsu picked up a brush and drew a road map on the sketch, as well as a circle of the area where Edo was finally affected.
ββ¦β¦ Xiuzong, is this true? β
After Hidemitsu finished everything in an indifferent tone, Hideyori took a deep breath and asked Hidejong on the side in a hoarse voice.
"Yes. What His Highness said is true. β
Although he was a little worried about the state of his Royal Highness, because he had been told the truth by Xiuguang a long time ago, Xiuzong didn't dare to lie, so he lowered his head and confirmed the truth of what Xiuguang said.
ββ¦β¦ dwelling,"
After Chongcheng heard the voice of Xiu Yori at this time, he dared to say that it was the first time he had heard such a terrible voice from Xiu Lai.
ββ¦β¦ Actually,"
The neat droop that Xiu Lai was wearing had been pulled tightly by his hand at this time, as if it was about to be torn.
ββ¦β¦ How dare you do such a hurtful thing!! β
After a roar full of anger, the table was suddenly overturned to the ground by the angry Xiu Lai.
With the loud noise and the various small sounds that followed, the atmosphere in the study room at this time seemed very grim.
The paper that fell everywhere because the table was lifted, the brushes that fell to the ground, and the spilled ink also added a messy atmosphere to the solemn atmosphere.
Chongcheng and Xiuzong were frightened and sat in place and did not dare to move. Because the usually gentle Hideyori has never been so angry, nor has he ever yelled at people with such a loud voice.
Although Xiuguang was nervous, he didn't retreat or move half a step because of his brother's anger, and sat firmly in place without even moving his eyes.
This is a situation that Xiuguang has long expected, and there is no way to escape, but to bear it.
"Edo Castle is inhabited by countless ordinary people...... Our aunts and uncles also lived there, as did Ah Qian's brothers and sisters...... However, you ignore the lives of these ordinary civilians and the safety of your aunt, and you are secretly planning and initiating such a depraving thing......
Shurai had already risen from the ground when he overturned the table, trembling all over, and looked down at his brother who was sitting below with angry eyes.
"Are you still human?!!!!"
In a state of anger, Xiulai couldn't control his words at all, so he bluntly scolded his favorite brother for being inhuman, and even had the urge to raise his slap and slap him.
ββ¦β¦ Hideyori-sama, Hideyori-sama! β
He didn't know how to persuade him to calm his anger, so he made an excuse.
ββ¦β¦ If you make a louder noise, Hideyori-sama, the samurai who patrol the night will follow suit. β
ββ¦β¦ Sorry, redone. β
Hideyori still retains his rationality. Immediately after he had regained his advice, he stopped his loud rebuke and sat down again, but the trembling of his anger did not stop.
ββ¦β¦ Take a good look at what you've done! β
Even after sitting down, Xiulai's angry rebuke to his younger brother did not stop.
"With all due respect, my lord."
Although he was panicked from the beginning, Xiuguang, who had long expected this situation, did not flinch.
"All these things that Hidemitsu did were for the Toyotomi family, all for the elder brother and mother."
This is the truth, it is the purpose of Xiuguang, and it has never changed.
"As I said before. If the elder brother can't even accept this, then how can he talk about revitalizing the Toyotomi family? β
ββ¦β¦ What did you say?! β
Hidemitsu raised his head and looked at his brother Hideyori with wide eyes with sharp eyes. And Xiu Lai also returned the salute with his eyes mercilessly.
The brothers looked at each other, and for a while sparks seemed to be flying.
