"You've done a good job on this mission!" Niwa Nagahide nodded with satisfaction and opened a box with his hand. "Not only did I take into account the preferences of Ashikaga Shogun, but I also made quite thoughtful arrangements for Hosokawa and Kyogoku, and it seems that I have really put a lot of effort into it!"

"Thank you for the compliment!" I said with a smile and humility.

"Yes...... What are these used for? He pointed to the large pile of "Yangluo" I bought from Tsuda Munekazu and asked puzzledly.

"Don't you think these things are all novel, my lord?" I asked rhetorically.

"I like it with the temperament of the lord, but the loyal guards ......," Niwa Nagahide said solemnly: "As a subordinate, you shouldn't cater to the monarch's decadent habits!" Moreover, the current Oda family is far from the time when they can relax and indulge in Fengyue! ”

"Your Excellency!" I'm serious, too. "I think that the current reputation of the Oda family is very inconsistent with the power, and even Tokugawa Ieyasu, who is under our protection, has already obtained the position of the five Mikawa Mori, but the lord is still only a mere general manager! This has seriously hindered the development of our Oda family! ”

"So ......"

"So please forgive me for being humble and bold and making an appointment for you to meet Lord Da Nayan Juting Qingji without permission!"

***************************************************

"Owari Guardian Kamisuke Oda Nobunaga presents ......," the shabby-dressed butler read in a long voice. Niwa Nagahide and I sat near the door, and in front of us sat the Emperor's favorite retainer of the Emperor Shokin-cho, Dainagen Kikutei. The sprawling old mansion is so old that there is no trace of paint left on the pillars or beams. As soon as I came in, I had calculated that there were only three servants whom the butler had seen, and their faces were covered with vegetables. Because of the ****, I can't see the face of Juting in the sunny season, but it may be the reason why he has to go in and out of the palace often, and the splendid court clothes and black hat on his body are very bright. Although he sat on it with a majestic attitude, his eyes flashed with greed from time to time. If one of the three important ministers is still like this, the situation of the entire court can be imagined! “…… A Nanban gilt dressing mirror, a velvet cloak, a Nanban self-striking bell, and two glass vases. The butler bowed down and withdrew, and another servant offered tea.

"Mr. Kamisuke is really polite, and the two of you have worked hard!" Juting's words in the sunny season were full of "kindness". "Now that there are wars going on everywhere, it's going well along the way, right?"

"It's fine! Thank you for your attention. Niwa Nagahide leaned over and said. Although there were small twists and turns, I was able to cope with your blessings. We have brought with us from Owari the Oda family's contempt for the lord, infinite loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor and to the Imperial Court, and great admiration for you! ”

"Hmmm! Well! Good! Good! Good! Juting praised one after another in the sunny season, and his two eyes narrowed into a slit. It's the best gift! For hundreds of years, the court has weakened due to turmoil, and the supreme imperial power has often been bullied by brutal and unscrupulous people! This is really distressing, and it makes the world lose its place. But at this time, it is really commendable that Lord Shangzong and all of you can uphold a loyal heart, help the Son of Heaven and calm the people, sweep away the violence and eradicate the evil rebellion! ”

"Your Excellency is really overrated!" Niwa Nagahide straightened his waist and said with a sense of "righteousness". "It is the duty of my samurai to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, and the Oda family will do their best to serve the emperor!"

"That's it! Niwa-sama, please relax. Juting Qingji waved his hand and said. It seemed that the opening remarks had come to an end and that it was time to move on to consultations on substantive issues. In other words, it's time for both sides to start talking "human talk". "In recent years, the Miyoshi family has been plagued by internal problems, and its control over Kyoto has been relaxed. Not only was General Yoshiki able to move his hands and feet, but the imperial court also had a certain chance to breathe. But the situation is still difficult, I hope that Lord Shang can share more worries for the court! ”

"Separate the court from the general, there is a lot of attention to this!" I'm doing the analysis in my mind. The conflict between the court and the shogunate has a long history, and this is well known to the world. It was only due to the frequent change of the newly established feudal lords, which caused serious chaos in the system, and the situation of the court and the shogunate was similar, that the "harmonious" alliance began. However, there were still high-ranking people in the imperial court, and they saw that the Muromachi shogunate could not regain its strength, so they were still ready to contact other forces at any time. It seems that it is only a matter of time before the horse "changes generals"!

"On the disadvantages, I am also worried about this, and it is difficult to sleep and eat!" Niwa Nagahide spoke with emotion, but he didn't promise anything at all.

"I went to the palace a few days ago, and Your Majesty mentioned it to me!" The chrysanthemum pavilion began to "pull the flag" in the sunny season. "Today's hope is all maintained by the loyalty and heroism of all parties. And the leader of this is the first to recommend Oda Kamisuke-sama! The entire court and the world are looking forward to seeing the loyal and righteous king of Lord Shangzong as soon as possible! Kuang Zhengtian is the first act of benevolence and righteousness, and I hope he will not be humble. As he spoke, he looked at Niwa Nagahide "earnestly".

I secretly thought it was funny that he might have said the same thing to many emissaries of the foreign domain.

"The disadvantaged family feels the emperor's grace immense! Excellency! The Oda family ...... "Niwa Nagahide's left hand stroked his knee.

"Your Excellency! The disadvantages are really powerless! When I saw the code, I hurriedly said: "At present, the Oda family is under enemy on all sides, and there is a usurper Saito Ryuko in the north; Bandits from Ise to the south invade from time to time; In the west, there is a hexagonal Yoshiken who colludes with the Miyoshi family; There is also a sect inside that is plotting to cause chaos. ...... cons"

"Shut up!" Niwa Nagahide shouted loudly "angry". "In front of adults, how can you speak!"

"Under the faux pas! Under the formless! "I kept saying I owed.

"Nothing, this samurai is also loyal!" Juting plays a round field in the sunny season.

"There is no way to make you laugh!" Niwa Nagahide immediately changed his words and said, "But what he said is indeed the truth, the Oda family is really in trouble right now!" I am always saddened that I can't come and serve the emperor right away! ”

"Is it true that Mr. Kamisuke-sama doesn't have any plans?" Juting asked with concern in the sunny season. He is old and sophisticated, and has already begun to inquire about the price.

"We are ready to gather people with lofty ideals from all over the world to participate in the righteous deeds of the king! It's just ......" Niwa Nagahide made a regretful gesture. "It's often touching and soft-spoken! Besides, the humble position is humble, even if we were sent here this time, I am sincerely afraid, lest I risk blasphemy! ”

"It's a pity!" Juting picked up the teacup and shook his head and sighed in the sunny season. "Although Oda Kamisuke is a young hero, he has not yet been understood by the world. His Majesty the Emperor is the most important thing about the world, and when it comes to the imperial court system...... "It seems that unintentionally, he made a finger twisting motion with his hand under the teacup.

"Although the Oda family is in a difficult situation, they still spare no effort to serve the imperial court!" Niwa Nagahide said knowingly: "This time, I ordered me to present 500 pieces to the imperial court, and I hope that Your Excellency will present it to the emperor on your behalf!" In the future, the Oda family will often contribute as long as they can. ”

"I understand the mind of Mr. Kamisuke! Please go back and wait with peace of mind, there will be good news in a few days! Juting said with a smile in the sunny season.
