In the end, when he was young, when he appeared at the banquet at noon, the Gamo clan had not seen the slightest fatigue. Although his face tried to remain serious, there was a faint excitement between his eyebrows. It's just that ordinary people can't see it, and only people like me, who have been with him for more than ten years, can feel it.

"Originally, I was too presumptuous to come back, but I didn't want to, but it was the right time!" After saluting separately, he turned to Harara, Nijo. "Originally, I only wanted to come to ask His Highness Zhuxing (he usually doesn't call me lord in front of outsiders) a glass of happy wine to drink, but I didn't want to catch up with His Excellency Nijo who was recovering from a serious illness. I don't know if your body has fully recovered now, so you can report peace to the court as soon as possible! ”

"Let His Royal Highness Pu Sheng worry, the old and useless body does not dare to disturb the political affairs of the imperial court!" Hararashi Nijo straightened up as a sign of politeness, although it was completely unnecessary in his identity. "Benqing is old and faint, and the corpse is a vegetarian meal, not only can not share the worries of the court, but wants to add burden. But His Royal Highness Gamu, who has not seen him for more than ten days, must be working for the country again, I don't know what progress can be made? ”

"I'm really ashamed to say that, I just went back to Hino Castle's house to take a look!" The Gamo clan looked a little embarrassed, and he didn't know if the blush on his face was from the heart. "The area has not been very peaceful during this time, and I am also a little worried about the safety of my family. Since His Royal Highness Zhuxing retired by the imperial court's decree, then I will hide my selfishness and take care of my family! ”

When he said the words "retired by the decree of the imperial court", there was a slight change in the tone of the Gamo clan, of course, it had not reached the level of cynicism or scolding. However, Nijo Harura still heard it, and there were such rumors in the world when he was in Kyoto before.

"The actions of the imperial court are all based on the overall situation of the world, and they are also sympathetic to my hard work over the years!" Seeing that Nijo Harura seemed to want to open his mouth to defend himself, I took it first and said: "Besides, with the current situation, if I don't retreat, it will continue to intensify the conflict between Yushiba and His Royal Highness Ikeda, and the small and medium-sized local wealthy families will be even more confused." It's better to calm down like now, you can also have time to go home and have a look, and you don't need to talk about anything else! ”

"Yes, it's a sympathy from the imperial court!" Gamo Township nodded "sincerely" and said yes.

"Hyun-so and Jeong-so, are they okay? I haven't been visiting them for fear of causing them trouble, so I'm really sorry not to go! My tone became more and more softened, as if I was really a person with a heart like water. Seeing that I was so relaxed, Harura Nijo sighed softly,

"My grandfather and father are still in good health, thank you for missing me!" After expressing his gratitude, he said: "Grandfather also asked me to persuade you that you don't have to care too much about certain things, which is right and which is wrong is at ease in people's hearts!" ”

"A heartless person like me, what else can't I see!" I showed my open-mindedness with a laugh. "You really should accompany the two seniors more, I don't have anything to do here now. Even if you come back, you don't have to rush so much, I heard that you rode a horse for most of the night last night, right? ”

"I was going to rest in Kyoto for the night before leaving, but that posture was too bluffing!" The Gamo clan smacked their lips when they heard me ask, as if they still had palpitations.

"What? Something happened in Kyoto! Erjo Hariliang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly changed his face when he heard this, and he asked anxiously.

"Alas, I'm afraid another big mess is about to begin!" The helpless sigh of the Gamo clan ruthlessly shattered the last remaining illusion of Harura Nijo. "I was thinking of staying overnight in Kyoto before leaving, but before I even entered the city, I saw a faint fire, and because it was almost the end of the year, I didn't care about it at first. But when I got closer, I realized that there were many thugs looting shops in the market, and although it did not cause a widespread fire, many houses had already been set on fire......

"The palace...... Has the palace been attacked? Nijo Harura stepped forward and grabbed the arm of the Gamo clan, but because he was sitting there, this action was a bit of a rolling. The corner of his coat also overturned a plate of dishes that had barely been touched, and the juice stained a large piece of his clothes, and the ceremonial system was gone.

"Although I haven't passed, but I haven't seen much fire from a distance, I don't think anyone will dare to rebel so much!" Gamo replied in a very sincere tone, but it didn't mean much.

"I hope so...... Heaven bless ......" Nijo Harara's gaze became a little confused, and he could only comfort himself like this at this time. Only then did I let out another sigh, which tightened his nerves again.

"Your Excellency also said just now that in the next two dogs, they will definitely become famous generals in the future. Although I don't have such an extravagant hope, I'm afraid that it will come true! I said with a wry smile.

"Oh......" Hararashi Nijo was stunned for a moment, not understanding what it meant.

"Looking at it like this, the troubled times will not end immediately, and it may not be impossible to continue for decades!" I explained it this way.

Harura Nijo was speechless, and he needed a moment to sort out his thoughts. In the past ten years, with the rise of Oda Nobunaga like a comet, it seems that everyone has reached a consensus: the obstacles that can stop him have been removed by manpower or heaven, and the chaotic times that have lasted for a hundred years are finally coming to an end! Although Oda Nobunaga died a little almost jokingly, the views of the people of the world have not changed, the Oda family is still a behemoth enough to influence the general trend of the world, as long as you inherit this power, you can get the world, regardless of whether the inheritor is surnamed Oda or not.

However, the current situation seems to be somewhat unexpected, the power of the Oda family has split into two, if not more hostile parts that do not have a huge disparity, the absolute suppressive energy has disappeared, and the internal struggle has a tendency to become more and more intense. Some of the traditional foreign powerful clans who were about to be squeezed out of breath seemed to see a glimmer of hope again, and those who really hoped for peace in the world were in front of them.

"Is there any background behind this, and have you heard anything?" I asked the Gamo clan in my mouth, but my eyes were looking at Harara, Nijo, and such a shock should be enough for him. The words were spoken by me and Gasumi, but the meaning was so that he could better convey the situation to certain people.

"I beg your pardon for being blunt, there seem to be some signs, but everything is vague again!" The Gamo clan also glanced at Hararashi Nijo quickly, and then lowered his head again. "I also tried to go to His Highness the Stars Mansion in Kyoto, but the further I went, the more chaotic it became. As soon as I crossed two streets, I came across five or six waves of thugs, shouting in support of Hashiba or His Highness Ikeda, but their men were doing the work of thieves. Seeing this chaotic appearance, he didn't dare to continue walking inside, and after turning around, he came here directly by detour. If this **** causes a swarm of nearby mobs, maybe I'll have more trouble on the road! ”

"It seems that the conflict between Yushiba and His Highness Ikeda has provoked a response from all sides, and hopefully it will not continue to expand!" I looked at the freshly painted roof with my eyes, as if I was talking to myself.

"Isn't it ...... Isn't there anyone else involved? Nijo Harura suddenly said in a trembling voice.

"Probably not......," I replied, but I didn't have much confidence.

"Back to my lord, someone has come to the mansion in Kyoto!" Sakurai's return at this time added to the tension in the room at the right time.

"What's going on in Kyoto, tell me quickly!" I looked at the person in front of me who was mediocre in clothes and appearance, and I didn't know him.

"Governor Matsumura asked me to report to my lord urgently: A large number of samurai who participated in the Settsu War have rioted in Kyoto, and the main commercial districts have been affected!" Although this man was also a samurai, he had never been on the battlefield, so he was a little flustered when he talked about these things. "The turmoil began yesterday afternoon, and by nightfall it had grown from a fire to a riot. It is said that the matter was caused by a disagreement between the two parties in the tavern......"

"Has it affected the palace and the residences of the ministers?" I asked, frowning.

"Yes...... It's not ......," I interrupted, and his train of thought was confused.

"Is it or isn't?!" I'm a little angry.

"Yes! The palace was not affected, but the residences of the ministers were partially affected! "As soon as I reprimanded him, his words became clear." …… It's just that His Excellency Karasuma Mitsunobu was killed on the humanoid bridge on the way to the palace last night......"

"Ahh Nijo Harura exclaimed, his face turned pale. "How...... How could this happen......"

"I don't know!" The sender thought it was asking him and shook his head very honestly. "It's just that when His Excellency Karasuma's palanquin passed the human-shaped bridge, a dozen unidentified people suddenly appeared and rushed up, dragged His Excellency Karasuma out and hacked him to death. At that time, most of the palanquin drivers and servants had fled, so I don't know exactly what happened. The murderers calmly left after the murder and threw a large handful of pieces of paper on the body of Karasuma! ”

"What piece of paper?" Then I saw a piece of paper, cut out of standard stationery, with only four simple words on it: "Dogs of the East." "Dongguo...... Is there anything else going on in Dongkook? I shook the piece of paper in my hand and said very "confused".

"The world is going to be in chaos again...... "Harura Nijo suddenly seemed to be twenty years old, and the color of decay was almost terrifying.

"Your Excellency doesn't necessarily need to be so worried, as long as the minister of King Qin leads the army into Beijing and the riot is easy to quell!" I was relieved seemingly meaninglessly.

"It's still Your Highness the Stars......" My words seemed to remind him at once, and his eyes flashed with hope.

"The more than 1,000 people I have at the moment may not be of much use, and this is very likely to stimulate His Highness Yuchai even more!" I rejected his request yet. "And...... At this moment, the imperial court may not want this person to be me, so you might as well continue to see how the situation develops here? ”
