Chapter 319: Find an Excuse (Today's First Recommendation)
Nobunaga had just heard that Senbei had been searching for fugitive monks in the place with the largest number of troops behind Nagashima Castle, and it could be said that no one had escaped from there at all, but this testimony of the temple was probably the heart of himself and his retainers, and he must have never thought that he would escape from the back of the city, otherwise how could he, who already knew his intentions, be in the limelight.

I think that the temple can even deceive the clan, and he can't stay until he says anything, but fortunately, Qianbing Wei is crooked and captures him, otherwise this person will become a big disaster in the future.
However, now he is suppressing the thousand soldiers to eliminate the resentment in the hearts of the retainers, and now it seems that the effect is still good, but the clan has made a great contribution at this critical moment, if he is rewarded, the previous efforts will be wasted, but if he is not rewarded, even if the clan can understand, but this will definitely make many retainers chill.
Moreover, the reason why the family can have the current prestige is that it is inseparable from their own rewards and punishments, if the retainers feel that their rewards and punishments are unclear, who else will be willing to contribute to the family in the future, this thousand soldiers are really a headache.
However, Nobunaga thought about it again, if he didn't want to give him a reward, it was not impossible, all he needed was a reason, and as long as there was a reason, even if he didn't make any reward to Senbei, the retainers wouldn't say much.
But if it were other retainers, it would be very easy to find an excuse for himself, but this Senbei, thinking that since he left his own family, in addition to angering himself because of Sakura's affairs, he couldn't find the slightest fault at all, and it was not easy to find his shortcomings.
At the moment when Nobunaga felt that he had no choice but to open his mouth to reward the clan, it suddenly occurred to him that when he was going to fight in Ise, the thousand soldiers had delayed in every way when attacking the temple, and although he had instructed him, the other retainers did not know the reason, so why not use this as an excuse to compensate him later?
Thinking of this, Nobunaga no longer hesitated, only to see him frown, pretending to be angry, and scolded the Chong clan: "Bastard, if you don't say it, I forgot to arrive, a few days ago, I ordered you to lead the army to attack the temple, but you did everything possible to delay the date of the attack, a small temple you actually took nearly ten days to capture there, which made my Oda family's prestige greatly damaged, I should have punished you for the crime of neglect, but, for your sake of capturing the enemy's head, the merits and demerits are offset, if there is negligence in the future, it will not be spared." ”
The clan did not feel the slightest surprise after hearing this, he had long expected that Nobunaga would not reward him, so he did not have any helpless look on his face, but said with a panicked face: "The subordinates are guilty, and the subordinates will not dare to be snub in the future." ”
The other retainers present didn't expect this to be the result, they still had the heart to say that the luck of the Gaoshan Clan Sect this time was really good, even if the lord had already begun to suppress him, so what, the people were lucky, they didn't make any effort at all, and they could get such a great achievement, which was really jealous.
At that time, I didn't think that the Honganji testimony would escape from the back of the city, otherwise this great work must be my own.
However, after listening to Nobunaga's words, they were all very surprised, could it be that Takayama-sama had really lost the favor of the lord? Although the clan did delay in the attack on the Yuanzheng Temple, after all, this is only a small fault, and capturing the enemy's head is a rare great achievement, how can this merit and the fault be offset, is this punishment a little too heavy?
Through this incident, the retainers' dissatisfaction with the lord has disappeared without a trace, and they are still silently holding grievances in their hearts for the clan. …,
And they also thought that Lord Takayama had never offended himself at all since he left his family, and his anger towards him was all caused by his jealousy of him, which was too ashamed, he was so narrow-minded, he was not a qualified samurai at all, and the lord had given most of the tasks to Lord Takayama before, not because his ability was second to none in the family, and it was understandable that the lord handed over the task to him to complete, and he had nothing to do, if he had jealous time, It's better to practice martial arts, and you won't be buried.
And as the father-in-law of the clan, Shibata Katsuya, it is really difficult to accept such a decision of the lord, he has always cared for the Takayama clan, and now seeing that the lord's reward and punishment are unfair, he can't help but say a few words for the clan.
As soon as the clan clan finished speaking, he heard Shibata Katsuya speak: "Lord, Lord Gao Shan can capture the enemy leader this time, it is really a great achievement, although there are occasional small mistakes, but the subordinates think that if this great skill is used to offset that small mistake, how to show that the lord's rewards and punishments are clear, and please think twice." ”
Nobunaga couldn't help but be a little annoyed when he saw that someone dared to doubt that he had made a decision, if someone else said this, Nobunaga would not only not be displeased, but would be very happy, because this shows that the resentment of most of the ministers against themselves and Senbei has dissipated, but the person who said this is not someone else, but Shibata Katsuie, who has an in-law relationship with Senbei, if he agrees to his suggestion and makes a reward for the Takayama clan, this is equivalent to directly rewarding him just now, so, No matter how much he tried to persuade him, Nobunaga would not agree.
I saw Nobunaga say with a gloomy face, "Do you mean to say that I don't know the rewards and punishments?" ”
Shibata Katsuya saw that the lord's color had changed greatly, and his heart couldn't help but tighten, and he didn't know where this Qianbei provoked the lord, but since the lord asked, how could he deceive the lord as a retainer, only to hear Shibata Katsuya stubbornly say: "The subordinates don't dare, but the subordinates still think that the lord's punishment of Lord Takayama is a bit heavy, and please think twice." ”
"Bastard, you dare to question my decision, is this your consciousness as a retainer, if in the future, the retainers of this family are like Qianbingwei, procrastination and sluggishness, how can this family develop, this is by no means a trivial matter in your mouth, there is no room for negotiation for the punishment of Qianbingwei, you shut up."
Shibata Katsuya originally wanted to persuade again, but seeing that the lord had made up his mind, even if he spoke again, it would be useless, it seemed that after the meeting was dismissed, it would be better to ask the clan how to displease the lord first, and then think of a way.
Thinking of this, I heard Shibata Katsuya hurriedly say: "The subordinates know their mistakes, and everything is up to the lord." ”
The other retainers who wanted to persuade the lord to take back his fate with Shibata-sama saw that even Shibata-sama, who had always had a lot of weight in the lord's heart, could not say anything about the lord, and it also caused the lord to displease, so it seemed that it was better not to open his mouth.
Nobunaga couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw that there were no other retainers to persuade him, and it seemed that he would have to grieve Senbei for a while, thinking of this, he only heard Nobunaga say: "Come on, bring Honganji and Saito Ryuko and others!" ”
I didn't see it for a long time, but I saw Honganji testifying, Saito Ryuxing and his retainer Kazumi Mitsuxian, with their hands tied, were pushed in by Qiben.
I saw Nobunaga first ask Honganji testimonial, "You have been defeated this time, what else do you have to say?" ”
Honganji testified that he knew that he would die today, so there was nothing to be afraid of, but he first smiled coldly, and then said: "The Oda family is deeply sinful, and it won't be long before they will be sent by heaven, and this seat is waiting for you in front." After speaking, he looked up to the sky and smiled.
Nobunaga didn't believe in ghosts and gods, so how could he believe his nonsense, and besides, this Honganji Temple testified that he was already a mortal person, and Nobunaga didn't bother to be angry with him, so he waved his hand and said lightly: "Come on, push this bald donkey out of the donkey and cut it down." After speaking, he focused his attention on Saito Ryuko again. …,
Saito Ryuxing saw that Oda Nobunaga was staring at him with that fierce eye, and couldn't help but sit on the ground in fright, he thought that Oda Nobunaga would remember the credit for helping him win Nagashima Castle, and let himself go, but seeing that Nobunaga probably didn't intend to let himself go at all, how should this be?
Thinking of this, Saito Ryuxing had already forgotten that he was still a samurai, and only heard him plead: "Uncle, it was the retainers who persecuted him before, and the nephew must not be the enemy of the uncle, and the nephew will never dare to do it again in the future, and please ask the uncle for the sake of the uncle, spare the nephew's life, and the nephew will definitely listen to the uncle in the future, and ask the uncle to be gracious, and to be gracious, uncle." ”
After hearing this plea for mercy, the retainers present almost laughed, they had grown so big, and they had never seen such a shameless samurai, but they must be close relatives of the lord, even if they wanted to laugh, they didn't dare to laugh.
And the light sea light behind Saito Ryuxing was even more surging by the blood of this anger, he was really blind, and he had always been loyal to assist such a lord, knowing that this was the case, it was better to go directly to the Oda family to avoid humiliation.
At the beginning, for Nohime's sake, Nobunaga didn't plan to kill Saito Ryuko, but wanted to exile him, but he actually gave himself such a play in front of the public, if he didn't kill him, he would be laughed at by his retainers, so this Saito Ryuko must also die.
Thinking of this, I only heard the letter grow and said angrily: "Bastard, I think I'm Oda Shin's long march for ten years, and I've never been afraid of life and death, how can I have a timid relative like you." ”
After speaking, he immediately shouted to the door: "Come on, push Saito Ryuxing and his retainers out of the box for me to cut down." ”
"It's the lord." After receiving the order, the four flags were about to push Saito Ryuko out.
I only heard the clan said: "The lord is slow, and his subordinates have something to say." ”
Now Nobunaga was angry, and he thought that the clan opened his mouth in order to spare Saito Ryuxing, so he said directly: "Today I vowed to kill this Saito Ryuxing, and none of you need to persuade him." ”
"My lord, my subordinates are not interceding for Saito Ryuxing, but for his retainer Light Sea Mitsuki. Please also ask the Lord to show his grace and spare the light sea to show his life. ”
