Xiuguang talked with Xiujia and others in the back room for a long time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the Xiu family's escape incident was still in the limelight, and the Xiu family's body had not yet recovered, Xiuguang decided to let the Xiu family's father and son temporarily live in the old man's mansion. The old man readily agreed. It just so happens that Xiuzong will go to the old man to practice kendo regularly, so it is also convenient to contact.

"By the way, Irisawa, I have something important to tell you, take Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichiyo, and let's go outside."

Hidemitsu noticed Irizawa Shinai, who had been staying by Tsurunosuke and Tsukichiyo's side, and then remembered that he had decided something that he hadn't said yet.

Irizawa looked suspicious, obviously not fully trusting Xiuguang. But he still took Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo out with Hidemitsu. I guess I think nothing should happen with me.

Xiuguang left the inner room with the three of them and went to the main hall next door.

"That's right. Actually, I've been thinking about whether to promote Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo to samurai a few days ago. ”

"Samurai?!"

Irizawa Shinnai, who had always been calm, almost shouted out in surprise at this time, and the brother and sister's eyes widened.

"Yes. I was still hesitating the other day, but I didn't expect you Wind Demon to save the Hideya-sama so quickly and make such a great contribution, so I decided to promote Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichiyo to samurai. ”

“…… Toyotomi-sama, is this true? ”

Irizawa couldn't believe his ears. He confirmed to Hidemitsu again in a trembling, hoarse voice.

"Of course it's true, I never break my word. To tell you the truth, this credit of yours should have been given more rewards. It's a pity that with my current age and qualifications, I can't give you anything more. But I remember that the Wind Demon family must have really wanted to be promoted to samurai by the Hojo family, so I can only give you this. ”

Hidemitsu patted Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichiyo on the shoulders and said to Irizawa Shinnai.

And Irizawa Shinnai hadn't recovered from the shock and joy just now, his mouth was open and closed, trembling but unable to make a sound.

“…… Thank you very much. ”

The fifth-generation Wind Demon Kotaro, the father of Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo, has served the Hojo family all his life, and what he hopes for most is the status of a samurai that Yasu-sama of the Hojo clan once promised. It's a pity that Shi Kang died early, and that promise was also ignored by Shi Zheng. In the end, this dream can only be lost. That's why when Iizawa Shinnai met for the first time, he would say to Hidemitsu that the martial arts family was difficult to trust.

However, now Hidemitsu suddenly decided to give Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo the status of samurai, which really shocked and delighted the Wind Demon ninjas who had been looking forward to this status for many years.

"In order to avoid being discovered by the Tokugawa family, the Miao characters of Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo were temporarily changed to 'Kazama', and the pronunciation had to be changed. How's that? Later, if you can confront Tokugawa head-on, you will turn back into 'Wind Demon'. When the time comes, if it is feasible, it will be possible to give you a fief. ”

It is impossible to give them territory now, and if the Toyotomi family cannot compete with the Tokugawa in the future, it is very likely that it will not be. So what Xiuguang is painting now is just a big pie.

Of course, Irizawa Kanai would not object to this. When he heard Xiuguang say that he could have a fief in the future, his mouth opened wide again, his whole face was flushed, and he looked incredulous.

When Irizawa was shocked, the siblings Tsurunosuke and Tsukichiyo were jumping around happily.

"It's great~ I actually became a samurai~ I'll be Tsuru no Suke Kazama from now on~"

"Brother, you're too obvious~Although I'm also very happy~"

Unlike his brother and sister, he was hiding his joy and bowing to Hidemitsu. Xiuguang also immediately let him get up.

"The big longhouse that is being built next to it should be given to Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo. As their vassals, you will be able to live in it when the time comes. ”

"Yes...... Thank you, Lord Toyotomi. ”

The big long house in Xiuguang's mouth is the mansion next to the old man's residence that is under construction.

“…… Tsurunosuke, Tsukichiyo, thank you Toyotomi-sama! ”

Irizawa Shinai pulled the brother and sister and asked them to thank Xiuguang quickly. So Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichiyo also learned from Iris Shinnai and bowed to Hidemitsu.

“…… Thank you so much Toyotomi-sama...... This is the heart of the late Kotaro-sama for the rest of his life...... Thank you for letting Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichi make it happen on his behalf...... In the future, we and the Wind Demon will serve the Toyotomi family to the death before the end of the contract......"

Irizawa Shinai was really excited, and his voice trembled so much that he couldn't speak. He was touched by the fact that the late owner's last wish had finally been fulfilled in his children.

Hidemitsu's decision to give Tsuru no Suke and Tsukichiyo samurai status this time was also considered.

In fact, for Xiuguang, the trust of the wind demon is still not high enough. Presumably, the Wind Demon also thinks that Xiuguang's trust is not high enough.

However, in the future, Hidemitsu will need to borrow the power of the Wind Demon, and if the Wind Demon Ninjas are missing, it will really be a big loss for the Toyotomi family. The Wind Demon can not rely on Hidemitsu, but Hideko must rely on the power of the Wind Demon.

Therefore, it is necessary to buy people's hearts. So Hidemitsu decided to give the status of samurai to the brother and sister in order to increase the trust and favorability of the Wind Demon ninja towards him.

Now, judging from the excited performance of Irizawa Shinai, who has always been calm, this decision was made right.

From now on, Tsuranosuke and Tsukichiyo were required to practice ninjutsu diligently, and on top of that, the old man's kendo training course was added. For the future development of these two little ghosts, Xiuguang also specially instructed them: to read more.

I didn't expect that Tsuru Nosuke and Tsukichiyo, who would work so hard in the future, shouted out with a whoa:

"Alas...... I still want to read, I don't have much interest in books~"

"My brother is right! Swordsmanship is still acceptable...... But why do you want to read~"

…… Then he was shocked back by Irizawa Shinai's eyes and coercion.

Hidemitsu talked to Irizawa about some small things about the future of Tsurunosuke and Tsukichiyo, and then ended the conversation and went back to the back room.

When they stepped into the back room, they felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere inside.

Xiujia had a smile on his face, and his son Xiaoping behind him was too tightly tugging at his clothes, looking at the center of the back room with the eyes of a theater. The old man has a cunning smile that is afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and he is also a good show like Xiaopingtai.

Hidemitsu was puzzled, but when he looked into the middle of the back room, he smiled knowingly.

"You woman...... You have the ability to go out and fight! ”

"Come on, how can such a rude and lowly person like you win me!"

In the middle of the back room, Xiuzong, who has always been flattering to girls, and Xiugao, who is a girl, are torn together.

“…… What's going on? ”

Tsuru Nosuke and Tsukichiyo, who were following Hidemitsu, looked at the two in confusion.
