20, "superior" said (above)
"Be a 'Maven'...... It's not easy! I don't know if I was frightened or because of my feelings, but in short, there was a melancholy on Senkomaru's face.
"I don't know exactly how many levels the superior has in the end, but I know that the 'Maven' is not the most remarkable!" I was suddenly interested, and I wanted to talk freely.
"What's even more remarkable?!" Senkomaru's mouth opened wide in surprise. Matbei was also surprised, but he didn't say anything about his identity. Only Nagano Yoshimasa was still smiling, looking like he knew everything. "What kind of state is that?" Senkomaru asked tremblingly.
"As I said just now, true gentlemen and true villains are only a very small part of the vast number of living beings! In other words, ordinary people are the most common ...... "Looking at the world, I can't help but feel a sense of powerlessness." "Different from the true gentleman's 'sacrificing his life for righteousness' and the real villain's 'mercenary', the factors that affect the value orientation of ordinary people are very complex, and there are many results that may result from interaction. These factors include not only loyalty, righteousness, faith, courtesy, interests, harms, etc., but also family affection, friendship, interest, and momentary temperament, which may behave completely differently in a given situation! At this time, I lowered my voice and said to Xian Limaru seriously: "Strong pressure will make people deviate from morality, and there will be a rebound if you are excessive; Deception can never be repeated, and eventually it will lead to the failure of the decree; Too much tolerance can lead to a loss of reverence. If we only rely on a simple and clear policy, we can make all the people in the world unite as one, so that all ordinary people who are not gentlemen and villains can follow without regrets. Then this superior person can be called the 'Holy Lord'! ”
"I ...... Still don't quite understand! Senkomaru shook his head in confusion.
"It's okay if you don't understand, let's think about it slowly in the future!" I think today's education can end here. "Go back to your mother! In two days, I will go to Tamba with the teacher, and the daily clothes and supplies have been prepared for you, but you still have to check the things you have learned by yourself! ”
"My lord! The young master is still young, are you too anxious? "Nagano Ye said to me after Senkomaru left.
"In another three or five years, he will have to be subdued, and he will have to have his own opinions on many things at that time!" I shook my head helplessly. "I can't help it!"
"I've heard in Tambo that the lord's new house is elegant and exquisite, can you let the old minister pay a respect?" Nagano changed the subject with a smile and trembled to his feet.
"Let me come!" Goto Matabei wanted to help him, but I stopped him, and personally helped Nagano Ye out of the warm pavilion. The guard picked up Nagano Yemasa's thorn staff and followed thirty paces away.
Nagano wasn't fit for a walk at the moment, so we didn't have to go far to stop at a water pavilion. It is connected by a short verandah to a small pond, and when someone comes to the water, the fish immediately gather and come alive.
I like carp very much, but at this time the real sense of "koi" has not yet appeared, but some mutated varieties have been available, such as "eighteen lin", "gold and silver gills", "red purse" and so on. There are also some carp that have patches on their bodies, but the color is not bright and the outline is not very clear.
"I'm old, and my back hurts when I walk a few steps, and it seems that I'm really going to that world!" Sitting on the bluestone guardrail of the water pavilion, Nagano Yemasa thumped his left leg, which was a little stiff, but the tone of his voice was not lonely but like a joke.
One of the attendants came running and held two square wooden boxes into our hands, and then quickly stepped back, and the boxes contained fish food made of oil flour.
"How can the teacher say such restless words, I still expect your 'tiger' to swallow those enemies for me!" I grabbed a handful of bait and threw it into the water, and immediately there was the sound of a school of fish stirring.
"The lord's artistic conception is lofty and talented, and the young master is so smart, even if the old minister dies immediately, he can be blinded!" Nagano was grabbing a handful of bait and slowly twisting it from his fingers to the surface of the water, looking very careful. "Hideji Hatano is a fool, I'm afraid that I won't know how I died in the end!"
"I didn't want to hide this matter from you, but since I gave it to Duan Zang to carry it out, it wasn't good to interfere too much!" I was still staring at the water, the fish still jostling against each other for what little food I had left. "Look at my plan, the traces of the conspiracy won't be too obvious!"
"The lord is indeed a good plan!" Nagano exclaimed, then nodded repeatedly. "Although 'serial schemes' are commonly used in stratagems, it is not easy for 'borrowing a knife to kill' and other stratagems. What's more, the lord also added two tricks in front of him, "want to capture the old man" and "point to the deer as a horse", and there is really no trace of the antelope's horns! ”
"Really?" I was both relieved and a little skeptical when I heard him, because it was the first time I had designed such a complex scheme on my own. You must know that the biggest difference from other daimyo is that I have a good reputation that is almost "saint".
"Of course!" Nagano Yemasa commented in the tone of an "expert". "If Hideji Hatano dies in captivity, then no matter what excuse there is, others will guess; If he is killed as soon as he escapes, then everyone will doubt the authenticity of the absconding; If he had fled and been wiped out by the army, only a few would have wondered if it had been a premeditated 'purge', but now he was on the run, and then he was killed by trusted relatives under the pressure of the army. Everything is so reasonable, all the infamy has been borne by Hatano pro-Xuan, and the lord is still tolerant of you when you are forced to do so, and no one can point out anything suspicious in it! ”
"Didn't you hide it from you, teacher!" My mood suddenly lightened a lot.
"For the lord, the old minister always knows more than others!" He picked up another handful of fish food, this time throwing it off into the distance. "The lord has been planning this plan for a long time, right? Otherwise, it can't be so seamless! ”
"Yes, it's been since the day I became Tamba!" I couldn't help but sigh at the thought of having to overcome my disgust to do such a thing. "It's not so easy to eliminate the deep-rooted traditional forces of the Hatano family, so the Hatano brothers must die! The little monk I arranged was there after being 'tempted' by them for more than a year before I helped them escape. As for coming out, they had to follow the route I designed. ”
"The most difficult thing in the whole thing is to elect such a person as Hatano Pro-Xuan, right?" Nagano Yemasa had a good eye and saw the crux of the problem at once.
"Yes, this is the most critical part of it, and the slightest mistake is a waste of all efforts!" I still think it's a little strange to think that it can go so smoothly. "When I started designing this program two years ago, I chose four back-ups, but in the end, he came out on top. To be honest, after some observation, I didn't expect such a ruthless nature, I didn't think it would have such a good effect! ”
"Yes! Villains can be found everywhere, but outright 'real villains' are very hard to find! He nodded approvingly, and smacked his lips slightly. For the possible changes of such a villain, the lord must have already arranged it, right? ”
"Although a few people were sent to monitor his every move, it was not our people who exerted influence on him!" I did this with the intention of establishing a "paradigm", so I was very cautious in my every move. "Our man realizes our will through one of his henchmen, who has always believed that he has accomplished this conspiracy on his own initiative. To this day, he is still secretly rejoicing that God actually sent him such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”
"How many opportunities in this world are truly descended from heaven, and how many are arranged by invisible hands?" Nagano turned sideways, put down the fish food box in his hand and turned to me. "In this way, that Hatano pro-Xuan cronies may be the only 'dead end' in this matter!"
"The 'accident' has happened, and the 'dead hole' no longer exists!"
"That's perfect...... "His facial muscles didn't loosen visibly when he said this, and it seemed that he was still not very comfortable with me." To be able to deal with the lord with such a big heart, it should be an honor for Hideji Hatano to kill Jiuquan! ”
"It's not so much that I value Hideharu Hatano, but that I care about Tanba country!" I sighed helplessly. "Tamba is the first great power I have taken over, and there is no room for error. Hideji Hatano is mediocre, and under normal circumstances, it is okay to leave him a way out. But the bad thing is that the Boduo family is intertwined in Tanba, and there are strong neighbors around it who covet it at any time, and once there is internal and external collusion, it is a sticky and sticky situation. So although they don't have much hatred for each other, they can only be sorry for His Royal Highness Hideji! ”
"That's all there is to it...... Nagano Ye finished speaking, and suddenly he suddenly remembered something. My lord, what do you say others will do when they face this situation? ”
"Someone else? …… Maybe not like me! "I was stunned for a moment, I really hadn't thought about it before." The lord is uninhibited and uninhibited, and he is generally not right about people, and the first impression a person gives him basically determines everything, and the captives who do not kill at the beginning will not be killed again in the future; The 'monkey' is a very suspicious person, and even if he doesn't want to kill at first, he will later create a reason to convince himself, and the one who is roughly similar to me may be Tokugawa Ieyasu, both of whom are typical of trying to be safe, and as for Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin...... This tiger and dragon are all civil and military all-rounders with ravines in their minds, but I am afraid that they will not ...... such a 'caged bird'."
"Lord, I don't know if you've heard of it!" Nagano smiled like an old fox again. "Back then, Takeda Shingen got rid of Suwa Yorishige, and he used a similar method to the lord. It's just that Takeda first ordered someone to rescue the imprisoned Suwa Yorishige, and then immediately intercepted him back, and then forced Yorishige to commit suicide. Compared with the lord, he is much more 'straightforward'! ”
