Chapter 191: Unexpected

Chapter 191 is unexpected

In the subconscious of Yumori Yabei, a demon like the Takayama clan who kills people like hemp and does not respect gods and Buddhas should be arrogant, he really didn't expect that the other party would not mention what happened just now, and he would be so modest in his words about his subordinate defeat, there is no trace of arrogance at all, it seems that the rumors about the Takayama clan in the world are not very accurate.

The words of the clan sect were very useful to Yumori Yabei, and I saw him arch his hand, but he said politely: "Lord Takayama is polite, in the rain Mori Yabei Qingzhen, this matter is no wonder Lord Takayama, but he is reckless, and please take the alliance between the two families as the priority, don't take this matter to heart." ”

Yabei Rain Mori? When the clan heard this name, he was somewhat surprised. First, he was surprised that he could be among the important ministers of the Asai family at such a young age, and Asai Nagamasa was by no means a mediocre person, so his status and status could be among the best in the Asai family, which means that the ability of this Yumori Yabei will definitely not be too weak.

In addition, what really surprised the clan was his attitude, listening to the feelings brought out in his words, you could hear that he still supported the alliance between the two families, and one more person supported it, and his trip would be easier, after all, the clan knew that now the retainers of the Asai family had become a big tail, no matter how wise Asai Nagamasa was, but if he wanted to completely eliminate the coercion of the formation of the retainers, it would take at least ten or twenty years.

But there wasn't too much time left for him, and the clan didn't want to see him end up ruined, so along the way, he had already thought about winning over the neutral faction of the Asai family no matter what, and only by increasing the proportion of the pro-weaving faction in the Asai family, at the end of the day, could the Asai family hope to make the right choice. And that Asai Nagamasa will not end up in a different place and his family name will be destroyed.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan sect speak: "I have long admired the brave name of Lord Yusen, and today I saw that it really deserves its reputation, and the alliance between the two families will rely on the assistance of the adults in the future." Please don't refuse. ”

"Takayama-sama is polite, the two families have formed an alliance, and they agree very much ......in the next year," said this, Yumori Yabei paused, looked around, and said: "Takayama-sama, how can you spend the night here, and please follow me to Yumori City to talk in detail." There are many things to ask adults for advice, so please don't refuse. ”

Now that it's the middle of the night, if you go with him, I'm afraid you'll have to toss for half the night, and it seems that I can't sleep today.

Although the clan didn't want to go, since the people were kind to invite him, he couldn't refute his face, so he had to nod and said with a smile: "Then disturb the adults." However, the clan has the heavy responsibility of the alliance of the two families, and cannot stay in Yusen City for a long time, so I will disturb all night today, and I plan to leave for Kotani City tomorrow, and when I have time in the future, I will definitely go to Yusen City to ask for advice from my lord, and I ask Lord Yusen to forgive me. ”

I only heard Yusen Yabei speak: "It's a bit unfortunate that Lord Takayama is coming, at present, the Rokkaku family is leading the army to attack, and the lord has decided to personally lead the army to meet the enemy, so it is not in Xiaogu City, it is better to be in Yusen City for a few more days, and it is better to do some landlord's etiquette in the next." ”

The clan also wanted to win over the neutral faction, so how could he delay in his city more, but he hurriedly said: "Lord Yumori's kindness is in my heart, but I think it is better to wait for the return of the Asai Hall in Kotani Castle, so as not to lose the courtesy, and in the future, the clan will definitely visit in person, I don't know what the lord thinks." ”

Although the clan said it very politely, Yumori Yabei could hear that he had made up his mind, so he no longer persuaded him, only to see him say with pity on his face: "Since Takayama has made up his mind, I will personally escort the adults to Kotani Castle tomorrow, so it is better to ask the adults for advice on the way." ”

"Then there's Lord Lao Yusen. Thank you in advance. ”

The samurai ashigaru or ninja present were also relieved when they saw that this was just a misunderstanding, and Keiji Maeda returned the weapons he had just captured to him.

When everyone left, Yumori Yabei glared fiercely at the shopkeeper who was already sitting on the floor, if it weren't for him, how could he lose such a big face, if it wasn't for the fact that he didn't want to be caught by the lord for killing civilians indiscriminately, someone like this who spread rumors, Yumori Yabei would have killed him indirectly. ,

The shopkeeper was already in his fifties, which was already considered an advanced age in this era, and he was already flustered, and he was glared at by the lord again, and fainted.

By the time they reached Yumori Castle, it was already dark, and the clan had rested for less than an hour before embarking on the road to Kotani Castle.

In Kotani Castle, as soon as the Anyang Temple Shijing received the express report from Yumori Yabei, he immediately made preparations, after all, the lord was not there, and he was already a little lazy, if he didn't put on some pomp, it would be too much to say, and the reputation of the Takayama clan was very great, if there was really any problem in the reception link, which led to the alliance between the two families, then he couldn't afford it.

When the clan was still five miles away from Otani Castle, Anyangji Sekei had been waiting here for a long time, and in addition to him, there were more than a dozen other samurai of the Asai family who had stayed in Kotani Castle.

As soon as the two sides met, they saw Anyang Temple Shijing hurriedly come forward, and said with a smile: "In the Lower Anyang Temple Shijing, I have long admired the prestige of Lord Takayama, and today I saw that Lord Takayama is so young, it is really unbelievable, and I can have such a reputation at such an age, which makes me really a little embarrassed." ”

I only heard the Anyangji Shijing say again: "Lord Takayama, since the lord is not in the city, I will hand over the matter of receiving the lord to the subordinates, and in addition, I am also responsible for discussing the alliance between the two families with you, and I also ask for a lot of advice from the lord of Takayama." ”

As soon as the clan heard that the other party was the Anyoji Temple, he no longer had any doubts, and historically, it was he who offered advice to Asai Nagamasa, formed an alliance with the Oda family, and persuaded Asai Nagamasa to marry Nobunaga's sister as the wife of the main room.

He is in the Asai family, and he can be regarded as a representative of the pro-weaving faction, and he is in charge of this matter, which can prove that Asai Nagamasa has basically agreed with the Oda family, as long as he is not too excessive, there should be no accidents.

Thinking of this, the clan felt very excited, and when the Anyang Temple Shijing finished speaking, he only heard him say: "The Lord of Anyang Temple is too polite, and he is just starting out in the next year, how can he be as well-informed as the adults, and in addition to discussing the alliance, he has to ask the adults for more advice." ”

After the two of them exchanged words politely, they only heard Yumori Yabei speak: "Lord Anyangji, I have already sent Lord Takayama safely, if there is nothing else, then I will return to Yusen City to mobilize Ashigaru and follow the battle." ”

"There's Lord Lao Yusen." Although he said calmly in his mouth, he was puzzled in his heart, this Yumori Yabei always only believed in his own strength, and was never keen on alliances, and today he would rather give up the first battle between his family and the Rokkaku family and personally send the Takayama clan to come, which is also too strange.

Didn't he constantly regard merit as more important than life, even if there was a big thing, it would be difficult for him to change, but how could this Gaoshan Clan Sect easily let it change? From this point of view, this Gaoshan Clan Sect is much more powerful than the rumored ones, and when discussing with them for a while, you must be careful not to fall for his tricks.

Seeing that there was nothing to do with him here, Yumori Yabei arched his hand to the clan again, and led the two hundred banners to leave quickly. After a harmonious conversation, the clan followed the Anyoji Sekei to Kotani Castle.

In the castle tower of Kotani Castle, the Sekei of Anyangji Temple and the Takayama clan sit opposite each other, and the reason why the clan can be received here is because of the approval of Asai Nagamasa, and the lord is already a little lazy in his absence, and if he is introduced into his samurai mansion, it will be a little too unreasonable.

After calming down for a moment, I saw the clan take out the codex from his arms, hand it to the Anyang Temple Shijing, and said lightly: "Lord Anyang Temple, this is the terms of the alliance proposed by the family, since the Asai family has an adult in charge of this matter, please also ask the adult for advice." ”

With a nervous heart, Anyangji Sekei took the codex over, he had long heard that when the Oda family formed an alliance with the Matsudaira family, the Takayama clan was making things difficult for him in every way, and he was afraid that it would be the same for the Asai family, if this was the case, if he wanted to promote this matter, he would inevitably have to spend a lot of time, otherwise, he would have no way to deal with it.

However, when he opened the codex and looked closely, he found that the harsh conditions he had just thought of did not appear on it, and it could be said that the terms on it were completely based on the principle of fairness, and there was no disadvantage to his own family, so that they were even more generous than the terms of the covenant that the lord himself had written.

Anyang Temple Shijing secretly rejoiced, fortunately he did not take the lead in taking out the covenant, otherwise it would be a big loss, and the right that the lord gave himself, if he made the covenant like this, he did not need to change it at all, and he could indirectly sign it on behalf of the lord.

However, when he saw the last one, in order to make an alliance between the two families, the governor of the Asai family, Asai Nagamasa, married the governor of the Oda family, and Princess Ichihime, the sister of Oda Nobunaga, was the wife of the main family, and after the marriage between the two families, he did not dare to sign it easily, after all, in the matter of marriage, how could the retainers make decisions for the lord.

Thinking of this, Anyang Temple Shijing opened his mouth and said, "Lord Takayama, there is no problem with the other terms of this covenant, but can the marriage of these two families be discussed after the alliance between the two families?" After speaking, he stared at the Takayama clan with his eyes, the reason why he would refuse the marriage of the two families was that he did not dare to make decisions for the lord, as for the second point, he could also see how sincere Oda Nobunaga was, if the Takayama clan simply agreed to his proposal, then in the matter of forming an alliance, he would have to persuade the lord to think about it.
