Asakura Yoshikeiwa...... Nagamasa Asai just died? "I asked very tactfully, but I think Yuchai understands what I mean.

"Yes! The 'Omi Eagle', which dominated the famous family in the first hundred years of Echitsu and was famous in the world, is like this...... The world is impermanent! He hung his head and rubbed the mud on his shoes with his horsewhip, again and again. Once it is in a state of collapse, those wealthy families who have enjoyed the blessings for generations will rush to betray, once a family cannot establish a strong system at the beginning, then the hidden cracks will only crack deeper and deeper, and the balance of compromise is only temporary after all! ”

I nodded wordlessly, agreeing with him. Asakura and Asai were wiped out, and the power to dare to confront Oda Nobunaga head-on in was gone! Recently, Matsunaga Shu and Araki Murashige have been very honest, and there is no possibility of causing trouble for a while. One thing I'm most worried about right now is that Oda Nobunaga is an unpredictable person, and when he's in a good mood, he may have a tolerant mind, and if he makes a mistake, he may take someone's life for a little thing! Now that the seemingly immediate threat is gone, the brutal side of his nature is likely to explode. This matter must be guarded against, and my caution cannot be relaxed a little! "When Chinese New Year's Eve...... Did something like that really happen? I asked cautiously as I looked at the sky.

"You ......" Hideyoshi Hashiba looked at me in astonishment, and the muscles on his face relaxed little by little. Such an unbelievable thing will naturally spread widely, how could you not know it! He laughed self-deprecatingly.

Through his narration, I knew that the legendary thing really happened! Oda Nobunaga pasted the heads of Yoshikei Asakura and Asai Nagamasa with gold leaf to make sake cups, and ordered everyone to drink a glass of wine with them at the banquet. What a heinous atrocity! Not to mention the former ministers of Asakura and Asai who had just surrendered, even the generals of the Oda family who had fought against them for a long time, and many of them secretly spit out what they had just eaten in their sleeves at that time. But does anyone dare not drink it? Facing Oda Nobunaga's cold gaze and looking at the sword he held as a cane in his hand, most people didn't have the courage to express their true thoughts, only the only one, to be exact!

"I really didn't expect it at the time, and of course everyone here!" Hideyoshi Hashiba breathed a sigh of emotion, as if returning to the scene at that time. “…… His Royal Highness Wise really walked over at that time, and he was really too strong to be a minister! Everyone was stunned at the time, and they really didn't understand how he could have such guts! Didn't you see that the lord's eyes were red at that time, and his two hands were clutching the hilt of the knife! ”

"Such a quiet person, I really can't see it!" I know that Akechi Mitsuhide is not good at drinking, and I know that he still has a certain affection for Asakura Yoshikei, who once served, but I really didn't expect to directly confront Oda Nobunaga at this moment. Wasn't he scared? What a bold person, I don't have the courage to put it on me! ”

"Not afraid? The person on our side was sweating all over, how could he not be afraid? Hashiba Hideyoshi immediately retorted as a party: "...... At that time, I was right behind him, and I saw that the back of his robe was like a sifting chaff, although I didn't see his front face, I thought it was already sweating like rain! ”

"It's not strange to be afraid, and it's not easy to be able to resist fear and tell the truth, at least half of the truth!" I still don't think I have the courage to do that, at least.

"Maybe......" Hideyoshi Hashiba was silent for a moment, perhaps recalling his performance at the time. Fortunately, the lord didn't really pull out the knife! Remembering the nervousness at that time, he still couldn't help but take a deep breath. At that time, the lord just picked up the knife and sheathed it, and struck His Highness Wise with his head and face, and scolded 'You bastard! Something like that. Everyone was relieved to see this, His Royal Highness Niwa finally pulled the lord back, and Ikeda Hengxing and Maeda-sama were busy pulling His Highness Akechi out! ”

"It's a blessing to finally get a life back!" I let out a long breath, and the scene was conjured up in front of me. "By the way, how is Princess Ashi now?" I haven't received a full report on this since I came back, and I would like to hear what this "contestant" thinks.

"Princess Ashi? Oh......" "Monkey" probably didn't expect to suddenly turn to this topic, and he was a little stunned all of a sudden. "Princess Ashi is very bitter now, it can be said that it is very bitter...... "His face is a rare pain." No matter how this kid Asai Nagamasa is not a thing, he is still very good to Princess Aichi! In the past 10 years, Princess Ashi has indeed lived a very happy life, with two boys, three girls and five children. The confrontation between her husband and her mother's family is nothing new for a woman born in troubled times, but it is really unbearable torture for someone as affectionate as Princess Ashi! As you might have guessed......" I was really not used to the pained and confused look on his face when he spoke. "There are many people who know about the beans sent by Princess Aichi during the Kanesaki War, and it is impossible not to pass it back to the Asai family! Asai Nagamasa resisted the pressure from all sides to protect Princess Aichi, which made Princess Aichi even more painful. In the past few years, the lord has wanted to take back Princess Ashi more than once, but she resolutely refuses to leave. In the end, when Kotani Castle was besieged, it was also Asai Nagamasa who forcibly sent her and her three daughters out! ”

"That ...... who saw Asai Nagamasa's death" Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I put myself in the shoes of Xianzhi, and if it was me and Senshiba, I was afraid that the living one would go crazy on the spot.

"At that time, Princess Ashi knelt in front of the lord and cried blood and pleaded, I am afraid that even the iron and stone people will not be able to break their hearts!" Hashiba Hideyoshi actually shed two tears when he said this, and the attendants consciously stood in the distance when they mentioned this topic just now. “…… At that time, many of us pleaded with the lord for her, at least hoping to save Asai Nagamasa's life. It's not that I want to see Asai Nagamasa, but I'm afraid that Princess Aichi will lose the courage to live! ”

"Lord...... I'm afraid I won't agree! "I already know the result, but at the same time, I am also terrified by Oda Nobunaga's brutality.

"You and I are not by the side of the lord for a day or two, and the only one in the world who can be ruthless in that situation is the lord!" Yushiba Hideyoshi had a bitter face, and he couldn't tell whether he was helpless or angry. "The lord ordered Princess Aichi to be pulled away, and the father and son of Asai Nagamasa and Manfukumaru were punished. Anyway, they are acquaintances, and I couldn't stop sweating when I saw the bloody scene, but the lord ...... But I've been laughing! ”

I'm sure he said that, Oda Nobunaga may be very talkative when he's happy, but you can't forget that in the depths of his soul lies a perverted brutal nature, like a demon hiding in a dark corner, always ready to choose someone to devour.

"Has Princess Ashi returned to Qibu City now?" I'm very concerned about Achi's movements right now, because her behavior is enough to seriously affect the balance of the various factions within the Oda family.

"Nope!" Hideyoshi Hashiba shook his head wistfully. "The lord originally wanted to send Princess Ashi's mother and daughter back to Qibu, but she would rather die than go. The lord didn't want to push her too hard, so he sent them to His Royal Highness Ise Nobupo first. But Princess Aichi didn't leave when she arrived at Mt. Iwabo to the south, and after sending her daughters to Ise, she lived in Kannonji Temple on the mountain, saying that she would spend her life in this place where you could see Otani Castle! ”

"Visible...... So it's around here? I asked unexpectedly.

He didn't speak, just pointed to a mountain peak more than ten miles away from the guide.

"Have you seen it?"

"Princess Ashi is nowhere to be seen!" Yushiba Hideyoshi slapped his knee hard and said, "...... I went three times and was kept out; Ikoma-sama went to eat the closed door soup on behalf of the lord; Only that kid from Ikeda Hengxing sat at the door for a day and a night was allowed to enter, but it was only a cup of tea! I wanted to ask him about the situation, but I didn't want him to get on the horse and run back to Kyoto as soon as he went out! ”

"Oh, the two sons of Princess Naashi......"

"I don't see anyone alive or dead...... he replied casually, obviously not on his mind. However, the lord has already issued a wanted warrant saying that he must be caught, and if there is resistance, he will be killed immediately, and he will come quickly! ”

"The prominent Asai and Asakura, just like that......" I know everything I should know, and I want to sigh two more words.

"It's not just them, it's the general who is finished!" He hurriedly interrupted me, as if he was very happy to change the subject. “…… As soon as Ashikaga Yoshiaki has something to do with this guy, the lord has already endured enough of him! Now that Takeda Shingen is also dead, and Asai and Asakura are also destroyed, the lord has made up his mind. It's ridiculous that this guy who doesn't know life and death still wants to fight, and invites the secretary to sit in Nijo Castle, and he himself goes to Maki Island Castle to try to stop the army! The lord led a large army to Kyoto by boat, killed the Nijo Castle defender and returned him to the minister, and then returned to Maki Island Castle and captured Ashikaga Yoshiaki alive. Later, Lord Hosokawa Fujitaka agreed to serve his own family and beg for his life, and the lord only sentenced him to exile! ”

"Where?" I asked without a match. I should have been on board when this happened, but now Ashikaga Yoshiaki has no effect on the overall situation of the world.

"Where are you going?" Yushiba Hideyoshi smiled mysteriously and said: "This guy picked Ruojiang, who was developed by you, and said that he didn't want to stay away from the place where his ancestors were buried!" Do you believe it? ”

"If you don't leave, it seems that you still don't give up!" I smiled at him, too. Unexpectedly, the Muromachi shogunate collapsed after a century of ups and downs, and fell into the hands of Oda Nobunaga today. It can't be said that their names are useless, maybe there will be a new strength who wants to borrow it when the situation suddenly changes, who can say for sure! I looked at the person next to me, will he still have a chance to recognize that godfather in the future?
