"Please Your Highnesses are here later, and this Qing will go to your majesty!" After saying this, the Da Nayan Juting who led the way walked up to the main hall by himself in the sunny season, leaving our group under the corridor. Since Oda Nobunaga wants to use the imperial court to improve his prestige, he must at least show a certain "duty" in terms of face. Behind him, the seven of us stood in our positions in order.

As I had originally expected, although all seven of us were awarded the rank of five this time, there was still a difference, and this can be seen from the nominal position. At the top of the list was Shibata Katsuie, whose position was to repair Ryo, which was the only one of us in the inner court; The second is Niwa Nagahide, whose position is Echizen Mamoru (500,000 koku), who has now replaced Hayashi Totsukatsu in charge of the Oda family's housekeeping; The third was Sakuma Nobumori, who was appointed to the position of Mamoru Anbo (430,000 koku), and in any case he was the only one among the current commanders of the army, and his qualifications were older than Shibata and Niwa; The fourth is the contemptible person, and the title given is Iyomori (366,000 stones), and the legion in my hand is the most powerful; Below me is Hideyoshi Hashiba, whose position is Chikuzen Mamoru (330,000 stones), and the efforts of this "monkey" have finally been rewarded; The sixth place is Takigawa Kazuki, who was awarded Noto Shou (210,000 stones), and he has always performed "hard work" more than "merit"; In the end, there was Akechi Mitsuhide, who got the position of Hinata Mamoru (170,000 stones).

Those who are familiar with the Warring States period in Japan know that there were many guards and guards at that time, but most of them were fathers, brothers and even ancestors who held this position, and they called it that. This is actually a Japanese tradition, just like the author of The Tale of Genji is a woman, but he is called Murasaki Shikibu. Of course, such a person has no grade, and the meaning is very different from that of the imperial court! However, at this time, the number of stone heights in this vassal country only represents a degree of attention, and the imperial court has long lost the ability to let us perform our duties on the spot. This time, among the important figures in the Oda family, Ikeda Hengxing did not participate because of his lack of qualifications, and Lin Tongsheng was kicked out.

Since we mentioned Ikeda Hengxing, we can't help but say a few words, Oda Nobunaga had summoned all the generals in Beijing when he arrived in Kyoto the day before yesterday, but Ikeda Hengxing was actually gone, and he couldn't find it anywhere! According to his retainers, Ikeda had ridden out three days earlier, without taking anyone with him, and no one (including me) knew where he had gone! Ikeda Tsuneko has indeed been weird lately, and Oda Nobunaga has no choice but to give up when he loses his temper.

Today, a few of us are a little nervous, after all, entering the immortal book and becoming a "palace master" is a big "hurdle" for the Japanese daimyos! Most of the strong daimyo in the field are not of high grade, and Takeda Shingen is the highest to do it from the four Zuojing doctors. This is indeed a convenient condition for the overlord, and Oda Nobunaga promoted so many people at one time, and it was precisely because he wanted to use this advantage to make him superior.

I carefully observed a few people around me with my peripheral vision, and they really have their own characteristics! Shibata's dark face crumbled tightly, and his mouth was still chanting words from time to time; Niwa Nagahide closed his eyes slightly and looked serene, but his sideburns were already faintly sweating; Nobumori Sakuma ......; The most nervous is undoubtedly the "monkey", which seems to have a fire under his buttocks, and always unconsciously wants to talk to someone, but he doesn't dare to open his mouth.

"Your Majesty will be here soon, please enter the palace!" Fortunately, Juting came back quickly in the sunny season, and we immediately lined up and followed him inside.

The entire hall, whether it is the floor, the roof, or the pillars, is in a woody style, and it has become a dark brown that is almost black over time, and the Oda family's donations to the imperial family have increased in recent years, and it looks quite shiny and delicate after several coats of varnish. There are not many decorations here, but they all strive to be simple and elegant, perhaps the owner wants to distinguish his identity from the newly erupted hillbilly through this!

There was no one on the main seat of the main hall, and there were already more than a dozen dignitaries on the left. Some of them I know and some I don't know.,Nijo Harura、Konoe maejiu are all in a very conspicuous position.,It's guessed that in addition to the Seki family, it should be the prince of the clan.,Of course, the main kin-cho Jixiu is not there.,His identity can't be on this kind of "table.。

Times are really different, and Emperor Shokincho didn't make us wait long. With a few announcements from the nearest attendants, His Majesty the "Supreme" stepped out of the throne, and Prince Seihito then came to his front seat and sat down.

"Greetings!" The whole set of false etiquette is inevitable, and the people involved are like acting.

It's the first time I've met the Emperor, and it seems to be a little bit more pretentious, which may also be due to his luck being better than his father! The prince was much weaker in comparison, and instinctively startled when his voice was a little louder, and looked left and right from time to time as if to confirm whether any danger was approaching, and he seemed to have symptoms of pre-existing weather weakness.

"General Right has worked hard, are you okay all the way?" Emperor Shokincho greeted Oda Nobunaga in the tone of an elder, but a humble elder greeted a noble junior.

"Your Majesty is worried, and the ministers are unharmed! ...... can still fight for His Majesty," Oda Nobunaga patted his chest and answered the emperor's question in a tone of being a pillar of the house. At this moment, his eagle-eyed gaze became sharper, and from time to time he despised the ministers who were respectfully educated. "As long as there are ministers, we will not teach the little ones to regenerate and endanger Your Majesty! The 100,000 sons under the command of the Oda family are ready to shed the last drop of blood for Your Majesty, please Your Majesty just rest assured about state affairs! As soon as Oda Nobunaga's tone ended, there was a sudden silence in the hall.

Listening to these impassioned words, another passage suddenly came to my mind. "Everyone is in the middle of the ban, and foreign affairs are subject to the punishment of the old slave!" What a similar tone of opinion!

"Good, good, good,......" Emperor Masamicho said three "good" words in a row, and I don't know if he understood what Oda Nobunaga really meant. "In the past hundred years, the imperial court has been constantly swayed by brutal and unscrupulous people, and it has never been able to pass administrative decrees! Heaven is fortunate to send such loyal and righteous heroes as the right general, so that I and all the people of the world can see the dawn of Kuangzheng's revival. It's really respectable and praiseworthy, and all the people of the world have thanked the right general! ”

"The minister does not dare to accept the gift of His Majesty!" Oda Nobunaga obviously heard the irony in these words, and his face couldn't help but blush.

"Are these the meritorious men who are promoted by the right general? Sure enough, they are all the best among people! "The Emperor has brought the conversation to a few of us, after all, the main purpose of this meeting is to show favor to the minister.

"Not bad! Please introduce it to Your Majesty, this is Shibata ......" Oda Nobunaga turned sideways and began to "comment" on a few of us, and then the emperor praised a few words as usual, and the people who answered were also the same thanksgiving. "This is the Zhuxing Qing Clan, which is currently supporting the situation in Sanyin alone. It is precisely because of him that the bandits and pirates of the western country will not intrude on! "Finally it was my turn.

"You're the Stars Iyomori Kiyo clan? I've heard something about you! "The Emperor's words are different when it comes to me." Last time, you were the one who repelled the three good rebels with fewer victories, and you also took good care of the people in the old clan! Very good, very good, now there are fewer and fewer honest and simple people like you! ”

"Your Majesty has praised it!" I bowed deeply, for I could clearly see a dark cloud floating across Oda Nobunaga's face. “…… Some of the ministers' actions are all derived from the words and deeds of the right general! If there is a slight merit, it is just a reflection of the right general Weide! His Majesty's praise is full of praise, and the ministers dare not accept it! ”

"Good, good!" Emperor Masakincho nodded and praised twice, not knowing whether to praise Oda Nobunaga's character or my modesty, and then motioned for Oda Nobunaga to continue.

I secretly let out a long sigh, not knowing if the emperor was using this to embarrass Oda Nobunaga or if he was really optimistic about me. The former was easier to do, and the small actions of the imperial court could not hide from Oda Nobunaga's ears and eyes. If it's the latter, I'll have to talk to the Zhengqin Town Jixiu and them, it's not the way to help me build momentum, and my best image at the moment is a "good old man".

"All of you are the pillars of the country...... "The process of introducing us was finally completed, and Emperor Shokincho strongly affirmed our achievements." Although relying on the loyalty and courage of the Qing family, the situation in has gradually stabilized, but it should be seen that the world is far from stable, and you still have a long way to go! I want to say that the world's billions of trillions of Li Shu and I have deep expectations for all of you, and you have to make persistent efforts! ”

"Even if we are crushed, we will live up to Your Majesty's grace!" As always, the oath is sounded, and traitors often speak louder than loyal ministers when such words are spoken.

"Right General, you can select so many loyal ministers and train so many long-term victorious divisions, it can be seen that you usually work hard about state affairs!" For those of us who are just a gesture after all, and only the content of the relationship with Oda Nobunaga is the essence of the problem, not to mention the emperor, no one will be unclear about this. “…… Since the Yingren Rebellion, the discipline of the world has collapsed and the legal system has been lost, and what is urgently needed is a loyal minister like you to rectify it by thunderous means! ”

"What Your Majesty said is very true, and the minister also deeply agrees!" Oda Nobunaga's tone was low, as if full of pain. "Because the world is full of delusional regression, even those who serve the gods and Buddhas are polluted and cannot be cleaned! What's more, people such as Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the former general who was supposed to protect His Majesty, also misbehaved and oppressed Zhongliang, obstructing the road of the Quartet heroes! The minister really had to ......"

"Don't talk about the past!" The emperor's right hand flashed in front of his eyes, as if to drive away a pesky fly. "But the world still needs to sweep the appeasement, and the imperial court also needs assistance! I don't know if the right general is willing to take up the post of general of Zhengyi, the prime minister of the world? ”
