"Isn't it nice to see me! Shrewd! Don't cry, it won't be beautiful to cry again! "I did everything I could to soothe the tearful Xianzhi.

"This shot is too heavy!" Xianzhi finally stopped crying, and complained while giving me medicine on my bruised left shoulder.

"It's my poor skills! I will definitely work out well in the future, and I won't let you worry about it again! I continued to comfort her.

"But...... You should have found a subordinate! Senshiba suddenly remembered Oda Nobunaga's words. Now there are a lot of thieves, and there is chaos everywhere. ”

I know that, too, but ...... "I'm a little embarrassed." But neither you nor I are samurai, so we don't know anyone like that. And you can't look for people you don't trust......"

"Why don't you go and find Toshiya Maeda?" Xianzhi reminded. "The person recommended by Maeda-sama must be trustworthy!"

"That's a way to ......"

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

Maeda's house is not far from my house, just two blocks away. "Mrs. Asong, is the Lijia here?" I said to Maeda's wife, Amatsu, who came to open the door.

"It's Lord Zhuxing!" Mrs. Ason greeted me with a smile. "I've heard you've been doing a good job lately! Congratulations! ”

"Makes you laugh!" I'm a little embarrassed. "Don't always be so polite! It's better to just call me Tadabei! ”

"The Li family has a cold and is in the house. Come in, get out of the way! She said as she walked over and opened the door for me.

"I'm so embarrassed that you're sick and still bothering!" I greeted Toshiya Maeda, who was half-lying on the couch. "How do you feel? I'll let Senzhi show you! The insider's medical Tao is very high! ”

"Don't bother! It's just a little ailment, and I've already taken medicine. Maeda Toshiya smiled and excused himself. It's you! With such a good suggestion, it is not a distant thing to think about getting ahead. That's right! Do you have any difficulties? ”

"I'm so sorry! Here's the thing......" I said about my troubles.

"That's right......" said Rika in thought. There really is such a person right now...... Ason! Tell someone to get Keiji! He turned to me again, and said, "This man is my nephew, whose name is Keiji Maeda." There is no problem with martial arts, but the personality is a little perverse. It's very unpopular with the lord, so he hasn't been out yet. Loyal soldiers, you are young and old, and your knowledge is extraordinary! Anyway, please help me discipline him! ”

"Maeda-sama, you're so kind! It's an honor to have Keiji's support! "I thank you from the bottom of my heart. As far as I know, Keiji Maeda, known as the "No. 1 Wonderman of the Warring States", has extraordinary abilities, but he has always been as unambitious as Li Guang. I can't believe that I can command famous generals!

"Uncle! Did you call me? A voice sounded behind him.

"Huh?" When I looked back, I was shocked to see the guy who cheated on alcohol a month ago! At this moment, he was much cleaner than he was that day, and his beard was shaved. Just looking at his calm and relaxed bearing, people who don't know him will really regard him as a "young hero"!

"You know?" Toshiie Maeda noticed my expression.

"Also...... It's not a ...... either" I don't know what to say.

"Yes! Uncle! "Just as I was pondering how to phrase it, Keiji Maeda spoke first." I had the privilege of meeting Lord Zhuxing the other day and receiving a lot of care from him. I'm really impressed! ”

"Also...... Nothing! You don't have to care. A word sealed my mouth. If I say anything else, it seems to be my little tool.

"That's right...... "Maeda Toshiya didn't continue to dig deeper." That's just right! I would like to recommend you to be a retainer of Lord Stars. You have to work hard! Don't embarrass the surname Maeda! ”

"Uncle! I'm really ...... It's really ...... I can't bear to leave you! Keiji's tears seemed to be about to fall.

"Keiji! I'm reluctant to let you go, but you can't just be idle. You must know that the task of reviving your father's Riku family will depend on you! Following the Stars, it is a great opportunity for you to make a contribution! Maeda Toshiie's words were "serious".

"But uncle! If I leave, then you ...... "Keiji" looked at the Li family with concern.

"Don't worry about me! My marksmanship is one of the best in the Oda family! Maeda Toshiya was in a hurry to confess.

“……”

“……”

"Then I'll give it a try! But...... I don't really have much faith. After an eager performance of "Uncle Mercy and Nephew Filial Piety", Maeda Keiji's tone finally loosened a little.

"Don't worry about this! Lord Zhuxing is the first wise general of the family (blushing ING). If you have any questions, I will do my best to help you! Maeda seemed afraid that he would change his mind again.

"Really?" Keiji asked in a skeptical tone.

"Of course! Of course! Maeda Toshiya agreed repeatedly.

"That'...... Please leave the 'Daidenita' to me! ”

"Big ...... Daitoria! Rika's voice trembled.

"There is nothing more blessed for me!"

"Good...... Let's do it! Maeda Toshiya took out Daidaya, one of the five famous knives, from the cabinet. The curved arc of the grand blade does have the courage to shake people's hearts.

"Then I'll go to work! I'm going to do it. Uncle, please take care! "As soon as I took (grabbed) this big knife with a dark red scabbard, Keiji Maeda immediately pulled me to say goodbye.

According to unreliable sources, Tian Li's family tossed and turned that night and sweated like pulp. The next day, the cold was cured without medicine......

————————————————————————————————————

Bear in Winter: Actually, Keiji Maeda in history was not the nephew of the Maeda Toshika, but was inherited from the Takigawa family to the Maeda family. But according to my conception, the protagonist is likely to turn against Takigawa Kazuyi, so this detail is ignored.

A few days ago, I read a big book review of Rose and I checked it on the Internet.,There are six or seven theories about Maeda Keiji's birth between 1533 ~ 1554.,It seems that in Japan, there are far more legends about Maeda Keiji than the official history.,In this case, I chose an age that is most suitable for this book.。 In addition, the age of several characters who are about to appear is a bit of a problem, after all, it is not easy to put together all the famous generals!
