Oda Nobunaga's small tea party was held as scheduled, and the process was going well, and at this moment he was on the main position, looking at Tokugawa Ieyasu's second son, Yu Yoshimaru, nodding frequently, and he seemed to be very satisfied.

Aichi's face wasn't very good-looking, but he nodded symbolically when he came in, and he never talked to Oda Nobunaga after that, but that's fine. She came today, sat down, and didn't express any clear objection to Yoshimaru, which means that she has preliminarily approved this marriage, what else can you ask for?

Tokugawa Ieyasu was still the same as always, and he was submissive to Oda Nobunaga's intentions, and he did not compromise his implementation at all. Today this is a very typical example: Oda Nobunaga killed his first son, and he sent it to the door with a second "beloved" son! This must be the impression he hopes to leave on others.

Yu Yimaru is not short, and his physique should have some martial arts foundation, but his face is extremely white and elegant, and even a little too elegant, making him look with a melancholy temperament. His attitude towards everyone was respectful and polite, but there was always a hint of vigilance in his big eyes.

I feel good about this Yu Yoshimaru.,I can't say any clear reason.,Maybe it's just that Tokugawa Ieyasu hates it.,But it seems to be a bit obsessive-compulsive.。 No matter what I should do, I did my best, and the rest can only depend on development.

"I'll go out for a while!" Taking advantage of the fact that everyone else was gossiping and no one was paying attention, I whispered hello to Niwa Nagahide, who was sitting next to me, and then sneaked out. Actually, I was just tired of sitting for half a day and wanted to go out for a walk.

This is a small courtyard of Honnoji Temple, and the scenery is reasonable. Until now, it hasn't rained in this year, so I have worked hard to maintain the scenery here. In any case, Oda Nobunaga is also the overlord in charge of, and there has to be a place like this to hold certain events.

I came to a cave in front of the moon gate, the guards did not stop me, this is a government activity area, I can walk everywhere.

"Oh?" Out of the Moon Gate, I came to the flower wall, and was about to walk towards the flower hall in front of me, when suddenly I caught a glimpse of a figure behind me. It's an unobtrusive place, so there are many sentry posts here to protect the perimeter, and the high-ranking retinues brought by each person here can also come, so it's not surprising that people come and go. However, this person is not dressed as a guard who originally belonged here, and at this time, the attendants who came with him should also be treated in front of him, so who is this person and what is he doing here?

This is an extremely majestic military general, wearing a pitch-black armor but no helmet, with a long sword hanging from his waist, just by looking at the size, you can know that the master is extraordinary. At this moment, he stood in front of a lotus tile window by the flower wall, looking intently.

"Hey, what are you doing here?" I came behind the man and screamed softly. There are still so many sentries and guards here, and there is no need to worry about any "consequences".

"Ahh Although my voice was not loud, he was still somewhat startled, and quickly turned to reveal the face of an old man in his fifties. I'm no stranger to this face, he's Honda, the head of the Tokugawa family. "It turned out to be His Highness Zhuxing, and he was rude!" He looked stunned, and then said in disguise.

"The tea party will take a while, why don't you go find a place to rest!" I took a few steps forward, looking in the direction of the place where he had stood.

"I'm so depressed, I'm an idle person!" He leaned to the side, trying to draw my attention away from the window, but the look on his face had not yet returned to its natural expression.

"Your Excellency is a model of good faith...... "I promised his conversation as my eyes continued to search through the window. In the end, I finally found it, and it turned out that this was the best place to look at Yu Yimaru.

At this time, I finally remembered that Yu Yimaru, who was abandoned when he was a child, was raised by the Hondo in front of him. The description of this "ghost zuozuo" who is famous for martial arts in the history books is mostly some straightforward and rough line incidents, I really didn't expect him to have such delicate feelings. However, Yu Yimaru was raised by him after all, so it is not surprising that he would have such feelings.

"What, are you worried about His Highness Yu Yimaru?" I turned my head to look at him and asked, very frankly.

"This ...... Yes! Hondo, the warrior who was covering Tokugawa Ieyasu's retreat in Sanbungahara, turned white, his lips trembled twice, and he finally nodded. He has a very heavy heart, which doesn't take much eyesight to see.

"Let's go over there, it's useless to think too much!" I turned around and walked towards the pond, where there were too many people to talk about. Hondo silently followed behind me several times, and now he was tall and not at all formidable even in armor. "I can understand your concern, but sometimes there is nothing we can do about it!" I sat down on a boulder under a large willow tree and surveyed the water in front of me.

"His Royal Highness Yu Yimaru has grown up since I was a child, he is a good boy, a good boy with talent and even genius!" Hondo also looked at the surface of the pond several times and said that at this time, due to the lack of water, it has dropped by three inches compared to previous years. "It's just...... The fate of this child was too bumpy, and he was entangled in suffering as soon as he was born. But it's really not his fault, and he shouldn't bear it! ”

"I've heard some rumors about certain things, although I don't know very well, but I am also deeply sympathetic to His Highness Yoshimaru's situation!" I saw this performance many times, and my heart trembled for no reason. In my heart, I always regarded the Tokugawa family as a potential enemy, and it stands to reason that I should not have any sympathy for any of them. "Although I can't provide much practical advice, I personally still think that in terms of the current situation, His Royal Highness Yu Yimaru is still ...... It's better to leave the Tokugawa family early! ”

"Really? …… Since Your Highness Yuzhou sees it this way, then it should be like this! He quickly withdrew his gaze and looked at me fixedly, and then nodded slowly after a long time. It may have been a great opportunity, but I'm still scared about it. It wasn't that long, and I'm really scared ......."

"Are you afraid that he will be treated the same as His Highness Xinkang, is this what it looks like?" I understand his concern, but it doesn't seem too necessary. "I can't give a real guarantee about this matter, and once His Highness the Inner Mansion has made up his mind, no one can stop it. But I think that's very unlikely that will happen as it stands. Therefore, as long as the adults warn His Royal Highness Yu Yimaru to be cautious, it should not be out of control! ”

"Please advise His Highness the Governor, why do you have such an opinion?" Hondo asked with urgency, apparently with great concern about the issue.

"His Royal Highness the Uchifu is a keen person, and he knows the situation of His Royal Highness Yu Yoshimaru in the Tokugawa family!" I tore off a willow leaf, because of the drought, even by the edge of the pond, the leaf had a sickly yellow color. "It is impossible for His Highness Yu Yoshimaru to influence His Highness Tokugawa in major matters, such as rebellion and other issues. Therefore, His Royal Highness the Inner Mansion didn't care about his details, and just wanted to contain the Tokugawa family through a person with the right to inherit. It stands to reason that I shouldn't have said such things to you, but if you think about it, it's clear to everyone. On the contrary, as a 'bargaining chip' for both sides to balance each other, the bad guys will not tear their faces for him, but maybe there will be a chance to 'go further'. You may think I'm hard to hear, Honda-sama, but that's exactly what happened. I don't dare to instruct the two of you what to do, but your lord can use these words to comfort His Highness Yu Yimaru, don't worry too much! Feeling that this was almost the end of the story, I stood up and prepared to go back.

"Your Highness is serious, I wonder if I can ask you for something?" Hondo exhaled several times and stood in front of me.

"My lord, please speak, as long as you can do your best!" Seeing his slightly agitated expression, I had already roughly guessed what he was asking for, and immediately agreed. That's exactly what I want, not to mention the preface to "what I can".

"His Royal Highness is humble and has a large number of elegant treasures, and he has always admired it in his heart!" Bendo's face changed twice, and he suddenly knelt down for me with a thud. "His Royal Highness Yu Yimaru is young, but he has already experienced many hardships that even adults can't afford. It's a pity that I have seven feet of empty courage again, but it can't help him in the slightest. I am really happy and afraid that this son can get this opportunity to marry the Oda family, lest there be any unexpected changes. His Royal Highness Yuzhou is famous for his virtue and virtue in the sea, and he is actually the first important minister relied on by the imperial court and His Royal Highness the Inner Palace. I implore Your Highness for your help to His Highness Yoshimaru, and thank you here again! ”

"Adults can't be like this, I'm ashamed of the Qing clan!" I tried to pull him up, but it wasn't easy. "My ability is limited, so I don't dare to say what it will do, otherwise His Highness Nobuyasu (I blushed a little when I said the name, but Hondo lowered his head many times and didn't see it) wouldn't have just left. But since the adults have entrusted me today, then I will definitely do my best to maintain the thoughtfulness of Yoshimaru Gongzi! ”

"Your Highness Xie Yuzhou!" Brave Hondo heard my simple words many times, and a few tears flowed from his eyes.

"But there is one sentence, I still have to make it clear to my face!" My face suddenly straightened, and my voice was full of helplessness: "According to my speculation, the biggest hidden danger of Prince Yu Yimaru is not in His Royal Highness the Inner Mansion but within the Tokugawa family, and we outsiders can't talk about such a thing." If you want to keep Yoshimaru safe for a long time, the main thing is to rely on you to figure it out yourself! After saying that, I bypassed him and walked towards the tea party by myself, leaving Hondo alone for a while.

"The Tokugawa family's iron plate also has cracks!" I walked slowly forward, and I couldn't help but smile slightly, but I saw Moriranmaru standing outside the moon gate where I had just come out, probing my head and not knowing what I was hesitating.
