"Unexpected...... It's really unexpected......" I sighed one after another, my eyes narrowed slightly, but I was staring at the two ministers with earthy faces. "His Royal Highness Tsutsui went to his house in Kyoto some time ago, and we talked a lot about the past. I don't want this to be a farewell, a life ...... It's impermanent! ”

"Excuse me...... What's going on? Kikutei Qingji molded a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the sweat from his head, and although he tried to restrain himself, his legs trembled involuntarily.

As soon as Tsutsui Shunkei died, the hope of the imperial court to quickly stabilize the situation in Kyoto was completely cut off, and even the 12,000-strong army of the cave that was close at hand became a "descending tiger" that could hurt people at any time. Right now, I'm afraid that Kyoto has become a mess in the house, not to mention these two envoys who are out of the house! But the mission of these two is largely based on the fact that Tsutsui Shunkei's people will soon enter Beijing, and now that there is such a big change, do you want to continue to implement the original strategy? If you want to change your attitude, how?

"This ...... I can't say very clearly! I shook my head helplessly and spread my hands, saying that I really couldn't help. My subordinates reported that several important ministers of the Tsutsui family suddenly attacked when they were in charge of the lamp yesterday, and they quickly broke through the main position of the Chinese army. Lord Matsukura Shigenobu originally wanted to protect His Highness Tsutsui to break through, but he was outnumbered and died, and His Highness Dingji also died in the chaos. Because this incident happened suddenly, I don't know if there is anything else! ”

"Will the rebels attack Kyoto?" Rygao asked anxiously, not even noticing that the fan had fallen to the ground.

Kikutei Sunny Season may have wanted to remind him of etiquette, but he opened his mouth and finally didn't say it, but turned to look at me with a hopeful gaze. This is indeed a serious and serious problem, once the chaotic army enters Beijing, it will be irresistible, and if this situation really occurs, they will not even be able to go back home, so they will have to eat a few more days of "idle dinner" here with me, and even the beginning of a wandering career!

"It doesn't look like so!" I picked up the letter again and read the end, and then said in an uncertain tone: "The riser has sent someone into Kyoto early this morning to explain the situation to the imperial court. According to their own words: His Royal Highness Tsutsui Shunkei was bewitched by His Royal Highness Yushiba, and in the name of King Qin's rebellion, he intended to sneak into Kyoto and hold the royal car hostage! These retainers put the righteousness of the world first and killed this traitor. Now, in order to prevent there from being a hidden rebel in the army, they will immediately retreat to Yamato-gunyama Castle and discuss the matter of re-establishing the head of the Tsutsui family in the future! ”

"Shunkei Tsutsui rebelled? Hijacking the royal driver? …… Your Highnesses, do you believe this statement? The series of shocks caused Washio's eyes to light a little, and he asked an even more stupid sentence in a trance.

Juting Qingji took advantage of the wide sleeves of the court robe to hide, and pinched his companion's arm fiercely, and his fierce eyes seemed to eat Washio Takayasu, if it wasn't for my presence, he would most likely directly strangle Washio Takayasu to death.

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! I suddenly let out a loud shout and slammed my fists on the low table in front of me, like an angry "gorilla".

A few of the plates on the side of the shock fell, and the two ministers looked at me in horror. The attendants outside thought something was wrong, and seven or eight hulala broke in at the door opening.

"It's none of your business here, get out!" After sending the attendants away, I closed my eyes and tried to calm down, but my chest was still rising and falling violently. "I don't believe it...... I can't believe it! "My eyes were still closed, and the words in my mouth were muzzling." I can't believe that a humble person like His Highness Tsutsui would do such a rebellious thing; I can't believe that someone as enthusiastic as His Royal Highness Yuchai would want to make trouble; They were all partners who were born and died with me back then, how could it be...... How could it be......" I couldn't go on, my voice a little choked.

My anomalous reaction calmed the two ministers, and they exchanged glances with each other again in confusion. However, Juting Qingji is very experienced and witty, and after realizing that it is impossible to get any inspiration from his companions, he frowns and thinks about it.

"Alas~~~! Your Highness, you are truly an honest gentleman! He let out a long sigh and patted me on the shoulder sympathetically. Your Highness, now that you are the leader of the martial arts family and a world-famous hero, it stands to reason that I should not make irresponsible remarks in front of you. But since we first met Yonglu five years ago, we have also had a friendship for nearly 20 years. Benqing is a few years older, and he can't help but want to say a few words to you! ”

"Don't dare to be so elevated, Your Excellency Juting, please feel free to advise!" I say it sincerely.

"There is a way that 'a gentleman can deceive him', Your Highness Zhuxing, you are too kind to be a person if you suffer a loss!" Juting was not "polite" at this time, and actually brought the tone of the elders to reprimand the juniors. "Why did the world have such a hundred years of troubled times, and it wasn't the work of treacherous villains full of greed in their hearts? Why did Oda Taimasa have unfulfilled ambitions, and he hadn't fallen for a dirty plot? Your Highness, you are a gentleman, and you naturally think that everyone else is a gentleman, but is this realistic? Maybe I don't say it very well, maybe many of you were born and died together, but people always become, sometimes very outrageous. Since the Cheongju meeting, you yourself have said how many concessions have been made, but what has been the result? Did you get any rewards for your hard work? No, not once! Please forgive me for saying something that I don't like, if you continue like this, your fate will be worse than that of Oda Taimasa! What you need now is to lift your spirits and take responsibility for yourself......"

I was speechless for a while, it's really the world's greatest! I thought that my own cultivation to this point today would be considered insidious and shameless, but at this moment, I know that there is still a mountain high.

Washio Takayasu began to look at Kikutei Qingji's eyes, it was unbelievable, and from this alone, I could tell that this statement was very different from their original intention. Later, his eyes gradually changed from puzzlement to sudden realization, and then to the final sincere admiration. Maybe at this time, he finally realized a little bit of the mystery in this.

"The Qing clan has been taught!" For a professional politician like Juting Qingji, I am also helpless.

"Benqing, this is not only for His Highness the Stars, but also for the common people!" Juting Qingji finally finished speaking, and breathed a sigh of relief. "By the way, any other news?" His gaze returned to the envelope below.

"Oh, let me see!" I picked up another envelope and opened it. It's no wonder he's nervous, today's news is shocking enough. "The two Excellencies of Zhongnayan persuaded the temple Qingyou and Qingfeng to be killed last night......"

"What?!" Juting's face that had just been adjusted in the sunny season suddenly turned pale again, and all the previous efforts were in vain. Haruki is the father-in-law of Prince Seihito, the crown prince, and even he was killed, which shows the seriousness of the situation. "Yes...... Any clues? ”

"As with everything else, there's no direct evidence!" I replied with a mutter, and continued to read the letter with my head down. "Also at midnight yesterday, dozens of wild warriors broke into the mansions of the two Lords of the Temple, killing everyone they could, and they kept shouting, 'Kill you rat!' …… Finally, there are many people who can attest to this, and neighbors and passers-by have heard it! "I read the letter.

"Unexpected...... I can't think of it......" Juting sat there in the sunny season, spitting out cool air one after another.

"Some time ago, there were some rumors that His Excellency persuaded Shuji Temple to steal and sell palace treasures under the pretext of managing the imperial property...... "Washio Takayasu looked at me and looked at the chrysanthemum pavilion in the sunny season, and said in a whisper.

"Anyway, we're going to get back to Kyoto as soon as possible!" Juting Qingji suddenly seemed to understand, and solemnly bid me farewell. "Thank you for your generous hospitality, and we will play Your Majesty as soon as possible!"

"If it's too much trouble, don't be embarrassed!" I also expressed my full understanding of their situation.

"Look at what you say, what is there to be embarrassed about! These are things that we should have done a long time ago......"

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

After sending the two ministers away, I returned to my study, and the smile gradually faded from my face, replaced by the haze before a thunderous rainstorm. "Go and get me the people who have come back from Kyoto!" I instructed Mibenmaru, who was following me with trepidation.

"See the lord!" After a while, people were found, and it was Ogawa Sun Juro who came back this time.

"You still have the face to come back, what are you guys doing to eat!" I finally couldn't hold back my anger anymore and threw the two letters I had been holding in my hand straight into his face. "I spend a lot of money every year to raise you guys, and I can't even do such a little thing, I might as well raise a group of pigs! What is Yoshito Mochizuki doing? What is Kanzo Kato doing? Are you guys just going to eat! I scolded as much as I could, venting the anger in my heart. It's like a gourmand who has been waiting for three days for a well-prepared bear's paw, only to find a fly on his plate.

Ogawa Sunjuro just touched the ground with his head and lay there motionless, quietly listening to my scolding.

"Say, how did you let the guard run away for a long time!" After scolding for a long time, my mood finally improved, and I asked with a sigh of relief.

"It's a minister's crime that deserves death, and he has failed the trust of the lord!" Ogawa Sun Juro kowtowed heavily again, and then said: "Everything was already arranged last night, and Konoe should have done it together with the brothers of the Persuasion Temple." But I don't know what's going on.,When the hand-held lamp was approaching, His Excellency Kinmachi suddenly went to visit.,And soon came out of the same car with Konoe Maehisa.。 We also followed them all the way and found them directly into the palace. Because the incident suddenly did not get the instructions of the lord, the subordinates did not dare to act rashly! ”

"Gaba!" A folding fan suddenly broke in my hand, and I pointed to the gate and shouted, "Get out of here!" ”

"Yes!" Ogawa Sunjuro immediately bowed and retreated.

"I'm an old man, I'm really looking for trouble!" I said hatefully as I looked at the closed door.
