Chapter 29: Sushi
"My lord Minokoku agreed, and now about three or four thousand soldiers have been sent to Nakono Castle!"
"Good! Takigawa Kazuki! β
"The subordinates are here!"
"Did you find out?"
"I found out that the caravans that suddenly appeared in our Owari not long ago do have traces of ninjas. But these should be related to the attack on Owari by Enoe, right? β
At this time, Guo Jia shook his head, sighed and said, "If they just want to simply attack Owari, they don't need to go to such a big time, and it's easy to expose themselves." There should be other questions after that. β
"My subordinates are going to check it out!"
Takigawa Kazuyi also realized this problem, and immediately realized that he planned to start directly in the high-level of Nakono Castle.
"Niwa Nagahide, have you done it?" Guo Jia's fingers tapped on the table, and he was thinking carefully in his heart, there can be no mistakes in the plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf, once something goes wrong, it will definitely make Owari fall into a place of no return.
"Back to my lord, it's already done. Now the whole of Hokkaido knows that we are now exhausted in troops, and we have no ability to resist at all. β
"It won't be long before the garrison of the three major Dao people arrives, and then they will be even more convinced of our state."
Guo Jia glanced out of the council hall, and then fell into deep thought.
Now that Ise is being seized by the Miyoshi people, Enoe should also start attacking Owari, and now the prisoners have been completely summed up in the Owari army, which now has about 8,000 troops, and the average of the four regiments is basically about 1,500. If you wait for Miyoshi and Yuanjiang to fight, you should be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Niwa Nagahide...... Never mind. Guo Jia was about to ask about a matter when he suddenly cut off his words.
Guo Jia is very uncomfortable now, Owari's strength and strength are too weak! And at this time, both sides are being targeted by others, and people have more troops than their own. Not to mention these, they are now suffering from internal and external troubles, and the external troubles are Ise and Enoe, and it is never a simple matter to grab food from the tiger's mouth. And what really bothers Guo Jia is this internal worry!
The two cities of Inuyama and Kiyosu have been seized by the two of Nobuyo and Nobuyuki, not to mention anything else, even Guo Jia's changes were able to be carried out at the beginning, but now they are struggling! They almost collected taxes there and made the people miserable, and now if they want to change the status quo, they must raise troops to suppress these two people, but this is Guo Jiachou's problem. One is his uncle, the other is his younger brother, both of these people are related to his body, and if they raise troops to suppress them, they are cutting off their lives! Killing his uncle and younger brother Guo Jia with his own hands still can't do it.
"Master Guo Jia? Lord Guo Jia! β
Guo Jia was awakened by a call, it was Niwa Nagahide, he looked at Guo Jia and he was stunned without speaking after he finished calling, so he hurriedly called Guo Jia.
"Oh, Niwa Nagahide. Is there anyone you're going to join us in the near future? β
"Yes, there are many samurai who want to join us. I've told them to wait for an adult to inform them. β
"Well, tell them to go out with me tomorrow. When the time comes, they will follow me. β
"I wonder where Lord Guo Jia is going?"
Hearing Guo Jia say that he was going out, Niwa Nagahide was not the only one, but the entire council hall asked. They were indeed worried about Guo Jia's safety, and they didn't know where Guo Jia was going at this time.
"Let's take a trip to the Three Rivers. I want to confirm the truth of one thing. β
"My lord! Never! β
"Think twice, adults! You can't go there now! β
"Master Guo Jia, you can't go anywhere!"
Where is the country of Trois-Rivières? A country within the Yuanjiang Kingdom, a Guo Jia controlled by the Yuanjiang Kingdom!
"It's fine."
Guo Jia shook his head, he said this trip to the most trustworthy person, Niwa Nagahide, who has followed his retainers since he was a child. Hirate Masahide, this is the one who watched him grow up. Shibata Katsuie, although he is a retainer of Nobuyuki, he has sworn to follow Guo Jia, and he has not paid attention to Nobuyuki's call for this time. The others were either his most trusted retainers or the old retainers who had followed his father.
Almost no one else knew about his trip to the country of Trois-Rivières this time, and it was necessary for him to go this time. Yuanjiang continues to attack him, and as a daimyo of a country, he must make Yuanjiang pay the price.
"Alright, don't say it." Guo Jia shook his head, he didn't want this group of people to bother him anymore, he had to take care of the overall situation.
"Niwa Nagahide, go and help me investigate Nobuyo and Nobuyuki." Guo Jia stood up and walked outside, not planning to let them say anything more.
In the past few days, in order to solve the matter of Mori Mo and Yu Xuan, he has not accompanied Gui Die for a long time, and he has to go to Sanhe tomorrow, and he can only accompany Gui Die today and one night.
Gui Die should all be very decent women, Guo Jia, as the lord of a country, Gui Die helps Guo Jia every time without regrets, and they are all headed by Guo Jia. And Guo Jia also promised that Guidie would rule the world for her.
"Return to the butterfly." Guo Jia walked into his room, at this time Guidie was cooking lunch for Guo Jia, for these two people, the daily routine is to eat lunch, shopping is a great pleasure. In this troubled world, they can still have a little time to find some fun that ordinary people can't have.
"My husband is back." Guidie is used to Guo Jia's situation, every time she goes out early and returns late, and it takes a few days to go out to fight, Guidie often thinks about how good it would be if she could go to the battlefield, but unfortunately she is a daughter, she has been a princess of Meinong since she was a child, and she can't go to the battlefield to fight with the enemy at all. This wish can only be let go.
"Guidie, I still have to go out tomorrow, and it will take about seven or eight days to come back." Guo Jia took off his shoes, although he felt a little uncomfortable when he said this sentence again, but he also had to say it.
"Husband should be busy when he should be busy, don't delay big things because of me." Guidie also felt bad when she heard Guo Jia's words, she also wanted to stay with Guo Jia, but she couldn't do it. Guo Jia, as the daimyo of Owari Province, must have his own righteousness, and Guo Jia's righteousness is to unify the world.
"Gui Die, what do you eat for lunch?"
"Eat sushi. I pinched it with my own hands. β
Guidie's face was full of anticipation, but she knew that she knew that with her little craftsmanship, kneading sushi was not a simple matter.
"Oh! Eat it! Guo Jia was very happy to hear that Gui Die had made sushi for herself.
"Look at your urgency. There is also miso soup. β
Guidie brought the cooked soup and the sushi she kneaded herself, and the strange-shaped sushi made her unable to stand it.
"Yes, it's delicious!" Guo Jia reached out and directly picked up a piece of sushi and threw it into his mouth.
These sushi are very weird in shape, and they are not as good as the ones Guo Jia ate in Meinong, but he won't say anything at all, because this is made by Gui Die's own hands, and no matter how good the food in the world is, there is a delicious food made by his wife.
"Husband, I know it's not delicious. You ......"
"Gui Die, you are wrong, you taste it yourself, why are you so humble about such a delicious thing."
"Husband."
"Guidie, I do feel delicious, you see these are all made by you for me."
Guo Jia pointed to the crooked sushi on the plate and threw it directly into his mouth.
"You can eat it too." Guo Jia looked at Guidie's appearance and felt distressed for a while.
Angelica Butterfly almost didn't cry when she picked up a piece of sushi and put it in her mouth, it was too salty! It seemed that she had used the wrong sauce, but when she saw Guo Jia eating sushi without caring at all, her nose was sour, and tears were dripping on the table.
"Gui Die, what's wrong with you?"
"Husband! The sushi I made was so salty, but you tried to comfort me. β
"Huh? Salty? β
Guidie saw Guo Jia's surprised eyes, and when she saw Guo Jia throw another sushi into her mouth, she burst into tears.
"Return to the butterfly! Don't cry. It's really not salty. How do you say salty? β
Guo Jia put down the dishes and chopsticks and hurriedly helped Guidie wipe away her tears.
"Husband, I used the wrong sauce, this sushi is so salty, you still have to comfort me."
Guo Jia was really stunned at this time, salty? It's not salty.
"It's not salty to return to butterflies, you taste it." Guo Jia picked up a piece of sushi and handed it to Gui Die, and Gui Die really thought that she might be someone with the wrong sauce, and Guo Jia ate those that were not salty at all, but when she ate another one, the terrifying salty taste rushed from this sushi.
"Husband." Eating this piece of sushi one bite at a time, Gui Die hugged Guo Jia's crying pear blossoms with rain.
Guo Jia was completely stunned, did he do something wrong? Although the sushi made by Guidie is ugly in appearance, it is still okay to eat, how can this problem occur?
"Guidie, don't cry, okay. Let's go out and eat. That Furuno has opened a new store, and I heard that the food in it is okay, so let's go out to eat. Guo Jia hurriedly comforted Guidie, he didn't know that he had a problem now.
"Husband. Good. Gui Die sobbed, her onion-like fingers wiped away her tears, she felt that Guo Jia was giving her a step down at this time, she didn't want to embarrass her too much, and the sushi she made was really salty.
"Husband, where are we going?" Guidie looked at Guo Jia, and at this time, the two of them had already packed their bags and were ready to go to the place Guo Jia said to eat.
"Oh, this is the place where Maeda Toshiie-kun told me. He said that the food there was delicious and the owner was a nice person, so we went there. β
Guo Jia took Guidie to find this place with a familiar car, Guo Jia's general Maeda Toshiya often eats here, and his own money is not much and he contributes his little salary here every day, Guo Jia has long known that he must have a problem with the store manager here.
"Master Guo Jia? Gui Die-sama? "I said that I eat here every day, and today Maeda Toshiya is still eating here.
"Huh? It's Master Guo Jia! When the people in the hotel saw Guo Jia's arrival, they all got up and planned to salute.
"I'm not Master Guo Jia, I'm Guo Jia, and I'm here to eat like you."
The first rule of reform is that officials only have a hierarchical distinction in the ancient castle tower, and they are the same as civilians in the city.
Seeing Guo Jia like this, and often seeing the general beside the city lord, they immediately smiled and stopped saluting, once they were almost beaten by this person because they wanted to salute this Maeda Rika, of course they didn't dare to continue at this time. But this also shows that the city lord in front of him is indeed close to the people.
"Maeda Toshiya, order a few more, and the two of us will have a table with you." Seeing the overcrowded restaurant, Guo Jia could only take Guidie to the table of Maeda Toshi's house.
"Good. Ason! Come and serve a few more dishes. Seeing Guo Jia's arrival, Maeda Toshiya hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to serve the food.
At this time, Guo Jia found out that the Maeda Toshiya frequented his cousin's restaurant. And he also deeply likes his cousin.
After a while, a few delicious dishes were brought to the table by Ah Song, and when Guo Jia picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dish and put it in his mouth, he finally realized what had happened to him. Everyone else was eating happily, Maeda Toshiya, Guidie, those residents, they were talking and laughing, only him, the meal in front of him tasted the same as chewing wax. He finally realized that he had lost his sense of taste!
