"What kind of letters are they?" I swept my gaze over and gave it a cursory look, but I didn't reach for it. The child is not young anymore, some things can be decided by himself, although I still need to guide him, but after all, it cannot be replaced forever.

"It's all sent by some Oda relatives, some for me and some for Azuru!" Seeing that I didn't answer, Senkamaru retracted that hand again, and turned it upside down, but he didn't pick out anything special. "The letter began with some words of condolences and greetings to Lord Nobunaga, and then it was a ...... of mutual relations."

"Aren't those just very ordinary family letters! This is also very normal......" I deliberately pretended not to understand the content of his words, picked up the teacup and said lightly: "The rift that appeared in the Oda family after the martyrdom of the lord is a sign of disintegration if it is said to be ugly. It's a pity that the lord's spirit was overwhelming the world during his lifetime, but it also caused a situation where there was no strong person within the Oda clan. At this time, the highnesses of this family must be full of doubts about the future, so they are in a hurry to contact the four parties in order to stabilize their position. ”

"Father, I'm only afraid...... I'm afraid things are not so simple! Seeing that I might have "misunderstood" what he meant, Senkomaru's face flushed slightly. These people invariably refer to the current Oda family's system at the end of the letter, and explicitly or implicitly name Nobutaka and His Royal Highness Nobuo. According to the retainers' opinions, they have all been co-opted and divided into two factions, and they are fighting hard for control of the Oda family. His Royal Highness Nobuo seems to be very dissatisfied with His Highness Nobutaka's act as a ruler, and he intends to replace him with all the constraints; His Royal Highness Nobutaka is also anxious to establish his authority and desperately suppress His Royal Highness Nobuo, and the purpose of the letter to the child is to say that he hopes to win the support of his father through the child! ”

"I'm glad you saw that!" I nodded in satisfaction, then sighed regretfully. "'The skin does not exist, and the hair will be attached'......"

"What did you say?" He didn't hear the rest of what I said.

"Nothing!" I shook my head. The wheels of history may one day run over me, and I can't feel sorry for others. "And how did you reply?" I continued to ask.

"Erchen just thanked them for their greetings, and comforted each other's dissatisfaction!" After Xian Limaru finished speaking, he asked uncertainly, "Erchen is confident that there is nothing wrong with the current strategy of the Zhuxing Family, but Erchen doesn't know if his father still has a way to target one of them. After all, the Zhuxing family, as the largest faction of the Oda family, could not stay out of the matter forever, and the retainers were afraid of interfering with their father's plans! ”

"Very good, to think of this shows that you are quite mature!" I smiled and nodded, he was able to take the initiative to deal with these things according to his own judgment is a considerable improvement, not to mention that there is nothing wrong with his approach, even if there are some errors, it is also a good thing to increase experience. "In the current situation, both of them have solid foreign support, and they are coming to us to add a weight to their balance of power. Because the main force of the conquest of Kyushu will soon leave, and it is not a good thing for the Oda family or ourselves to be involved too much! "I took the opportunity to educate.

"Yes, Father!" He nodded in agreement, and seemed to have basically understood.

"Is Ah He in a good mood lately?" I casually asked, as a father, you also need to take proper care of his family affairs, and this is not entirely a family matter.

"It's fine! Some time ago, I was very sad about the death of the lord and His Royal Highness Nobutada, but now it is much better......" Senkomaru nodded, his face was a little worried, but it quickly drifted over again. "All the letters she received were handed to me untouched, and she did not express any opinion. I also asked her about some questions, but she said that since she married into the Zhuxing family, she is a member of the Zhuxing family, and told me not to think of her! ”

"This is the true character of the martial arts, worthy of being the daughter of the lord!" I couldn't help but sigh and praise, and I was relieved to have this result.

Xian Limaru and Ah He are the most typical political marriages, they have only met twice before they get married, and they are in an environment where many people are watching, so it is natural to say how deep the emotional foundation is. However, the two of them have similar personalities and hobbies, and they both belong to the stable and quiet type, so in the end, they can be called respectful of each other. However, according to my secret observation, the personalities of Ah He and Xian Limaru should still be a little different, with a slightly soft personality on the outside and a strong personality on the inside. After repeated weighing and reasoning, I finally judged that this should be a virtuous helper of Xian Limaru.

"My lord, His Royal Highnesses Oda Nobutru and Katsucho are here to visit!" Just as I was about to continue discussing some family issues with Senkamaru, a maid hurriedly came to report from the front, which should have been a message from the front.

"They're coming?" After a little silence, I asked the fairy carp pill on the side, "What do you think about this!" ”

"Someone must have a premonition that my father was going to travel to Kyushu, so they rushed to be a lobbyist at this time! I just don't know who they represent......" Senkomaru guessed sideways.

"Let's go, come with me and meet you!" I said and stood up.

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

As soon as I entered the small living room with Senkomaru, Oda Nobutu and Oda Katsunaga, who were already waiting there, immediately stood up and saluted respectfully. "I've taken the liberty of visiting and disturbing Your Highness the Stars!" They bowed and apologized.

"Oops! Don't dare to be, really don't dare to be! I hurriedly bowed and returned the salute, and motioned with my eyes to Senkomaru to hurry over and support the two of them. Although the two of them were not very important during Oda Nobunaga's lifetime, they were also a close branch of the Oda family after all.

"I also know that His Highness Zhuxing is working on state affairs at this time, but ...... It's really a little unavoidable to bother! Oda Nobu looked at me and immediately lowered his head, looking embarrassed and embarrassed.

"If Your Highness has anything to advise, please don't tell me politely!" I say this with the utmost sincerity.

In all fairness, this Nobunaga Highness can also be counted as handsome, but it should be at the bottom of the list of Nobunaga brothers, and a rich face is easily reminiscent of the Buddha, but the eyelids are slightly swollen. Because his Tajima territory had just been snatched away by the "monkeys", I guess he joined the alliance of Shibata Katsuie-Oda Nobutaka's side.

"A little thing, just a little thing......" may be the words that are going to be said that really make it difficult for him to speak, Oda Nobuturu said these two sentences over and over again. He looked at Oda Katsucho as if for help, but the latter lowered his head and stared at his toes. "It's something that has happened in my family recently, and His Highnesses Nobutaka and Nobuo have been sending me all kinds of inquiries!" Seeing that he really couldn't get support, he had to grit his teeth and say it himself.

I felt pity for him when I looked at him, but it didn't stop him from continuing. The choice of position is sometimes a very painful thing in itself, especially when it comes to choosing within one's own kinship, and since he has already made his choice and has been pushed to the front line, no one can replace him.

"The Lord knew my power when he was there, and never gave me such a thing! But now......" He narrowed his eyes slightly and shook his head in pain. "But the two highnesses want me to express my position on everything, and it is really miserable to be here. His Highness is a world-famous wise man, so I have the cheekiness to ask you for advice! ”

"This is an internal affair of the family, what can I do?" I frowned and shook my head, not trying to change my attitude these days.

"No, no, no! Don't be in a hurry to refuse, Your Highnesses, you will definitely be able to help you! Oda Nobuturu explained hurriedly, and then swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva with difficulty. After this Cheongju meeting, thanks to the care of your highnesses, you can really thank you for entrusting the 100,000 stone territory of Ruojiang Castle in North Hanoi. But the material is really unbearable! ”

"And what is Your Highness's plan?" Listening to his voice, I asked in surprise, and obviously felt that there was some kind of deviation from what I expected.

"Actually...... I still like the seaside in the next place, and I can't manage it for too large a territory! He craned his neck and swallowed another mouthful of saliva. Therefore, I hope that I can exchange the territory of Wakae Castle for 20,000 stone of land in Shikoku Iyo from His Highness Zhuxing, and I implore His Highness Zhuxing to fulfill it! ”

I'm a person who travels through history, so there's not much else in this world that can shock me. But after listening to Oda Nobuta's words, I still felt dizzy, and when I looked closely, I still had that slightly fat and slightly stupid face in front of me. "Your Highness, you're not joking with me, are you?" That's all I can ask.

"I am absolutely sincere, if Your Highness the Stars doesn't believe me, you can swear to the sky!" Oda Nobutu hurriedly said.

"What does His Highness Katsucho mean?" After a moment of silence, I asked Katsunaga Oda again.

"Actually, my situation is probably similar to Uncle Shinzhao!" Oda Katsucho gave me a quick look and then lowered his head. "Last year, my father gave me 20,000 koku territory in Iga Yamada County, but I have been unable to perform my duties because of the strong local people. It's really impossible to govern such a place, so I ask His Highness to exchange Hanato Castle (a small castle of 5,000 koku) in Minami Ise for Zaixia! ”

I looked at Oda Nobutu and then at Oda Katsunaga, and then at Oda Nobutu and then at Oda Katsunaga. “…… All right! I finally nodded.

"Unexpected...... It's unexpected! After the two guests left, Xian Limaru said with emotion. The two highnesses, Nobutaka and Nobuo, have gone so far and forced a crowd to such a point! ”

"Who can tell the things of the world!" I stood up and walked to the door, looked at the low twilight outside, and said, "It turns out that I never thought that maybe these two highnesses are the smartest people in the Oda family right now!" ”
