16, the flowers fall (below)

"Hmm...... "The medicine of the fog butterfly is really powerful, and when Sakai Tadaji came in, I was already dizzy and weak, so I still need to pretend, I am really a patient." Sakai-sama...... You may be seated! I reached out a hand from the quilt and trembled and pointed to a cushion a meter away from the couch.

"His Royal Highness Yuzhou is sick and still comes to disturb him, it's really rude!" Tadaji Sakai's chimpanzee-like face was filled with extreme embarrassment, and he kowtowed heavily on the seat cushion.

"Lord Sakai doesn't need to be polite, His Royal Highness Yuzhou hasn't seen your lord a few times before, and it's really a last resort!" The Takenaka half-guard pulled him up, and the two of them sat down side by side. "His Royal Highness Yushu is ill and can't talk for a long time, so I ask Lord Sakai to say something directly. His Royal Highness Yushu was originally unable to meet guests no matter what, but he heard that something earth-shattering had happened to the Tokugawa family, so he insisted on meeting the adults! ”

"Yes! His Royal Highness's kindness is unforgettable! Sakai Tadaji nodded repeatedly, tears overflowing from the corners of his eyes with excitement.

"It's about His Highness Shinyasu! Two days ago, I heard some ...... from my family: "I struggled to get up, and my hands went weak and crooked. The half-guards of Takenaka hurriedly came over and helped me, erecting two pillows behind me. "I heard that the lord suspects that some people are colluding with the Takeda family, what is going on?"

"There was a traitor from the Takeda family who infiltrated Okazaki disguised as a doctor, and several people were tricked into doing such a thing!" Tadaji Sakai said bitterly and bitterly. "This matter is all due to the hatred of the Tsukiyama Hall from the Imagawa family against His Royal Highness the Inner House, and several wealthy families of Nishimikawa also have a vendetta with the Oda family, but this matter really has nothing to do with the young master! As the son-in-law of His Royal Highness the Inner Palace, how could he ......"

"It's hard...... Do you think His Highness the Inner Mansion will believe this statement? "I felt a sore spine and had to lean on the pillow weakly." His Royal Highness hates the Takeda family the most, and everything about them is enough to make His Highness the Inner Mansion suspicious. Now not only is he secretly communicating with the Takeda family, but he has also obtained accurate human and physical evidence. At the moment, His Royal Highness Tokugawa has not made any indications, it would be bad if everything waited for the order of His Highness the Inner Palace! ”

"Yes, the contemptible lord thinks so too!" Sakai Tadaji straightened up, and at this time he no longer had the momentum of the head of the Four Heavenly Kings of Tokugawa. "As soon as this matter was verified, the contemptuous lord detained a group of people in Okazaki Castle, including not only Okazaki's governor Dai-Hiroshiro, but even the young lord and the Tsukiyama Palace. The entire situation has been reported to Azuchi, and the Tokugawa family is truly afraid to listen to His Royal Highness the Inner Palace's ruling! ”

"That's good...... That's good......" I nodded, but I felt that it wasn't enough, so I nodded it twice. His Royal Highness Tokugawa did this very well, and fully expressed his sincerity. With this in mind, it will be easier for us to speak from the sidelines, and at least we can still see the main body of the Tokugawa family as allies this time. I heard that Niwa, Hashiba, and Ikeda have already gone to see His Highness the Uchifu, but I don't know what the result is, and my attitude is a little relaxed? ”

"Several highnesses have been driven out, and His Highness the Inner Mansion is extremely angry!" Sakai Tadaji's face quickly changed to red and white, and although he found it difficult to speak, he had to say, "His Royal Highness the Inner Mansion has rejected anyone's mediation in this matter, and many people have been reprimanded for it. We even went to ask His Highness Nobutyū for this, but ...... But ......"

"That's right......" I raised my head feebly. The strength of the butterfly was so strong that I felt my cervical spine start to ache. "Since I'm so resolute, I'm afraid I'll ...... even if I come forward."

"Your Highness Yuzhou, please don't say that!" When Sakai Tadaji heard that I was going to retreat, he immediately kowtowed in shock. "At this moment, the only one who can exert influence on His Highness the Inner Mansion is Your Highness Zhuxing Yuzhou! With your current strength, status, achievements, and influence within the Oda family, His Royal Highness the Uchifu will certainly consider your attitude carefully. On behalf of the lord and the entire Tokugawa family, I beg you! After saying that, he prostrated vigorously again.

"Please get up, please don't do this! Shigeji, help Sakai-sama up for me! I leaned up to help him, but I fell on the couch again because my hand was weak. This time I was busy with the Takenaka half-guard, so I had to help me first. "Since Sakai-sama said so, I have to do my part!" I leaned back on the pillow and let out a long breath.

"Your Highness Xie Yuzhou!" Hearing me say this, Sakai Tadaji has collapsed a lot.

"It's just......," I said with a long and regretful remark, but it suddenly tightened Sakai's heart. It's just that His Royal Highness the Inner Mansion is angry right now, and it's not realistic to let His Highness Xinkang go plainly. You should still be mentally prepared, and you may ask His Royal Highness Xinkang to retire or even become a monk, but this is always an expedient measure, as long as you get past the current hurdle, there is always a way. After all, His Royal Highness Xinkang is the son-in-law of His Royal Highness the Inner Palace, and time can calm down some things, and in addition, I should ask His Highness Xinkang to pay attention to restraining his temper and try to make up for the relationship with Princess Wude. Anyone else...... Please forgive me for not being able to help! ”

"That's good, that's good, as long as you can keep the young master, you can't do anything!" Tadaji Sakai's head nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and the expression on his face changed to indescribable excitement. "The great kindness of His Highness Zhuxing is high and the earth is high, and our Tokugawa family will never forget it. As long as you can save the life of the young master......"

"Saving your life? What's going on! I looked at the Hanbei Takenaka in surprise and asked, showing enough "confusion".

"Because the lord is seriously ill, there are some things I haven't had time to say a few days ago!" Takenaka Hanbei and I have cooperated for many years, so naturally it is impossible not to even have this bit of eyesight. "The word has been passed down in the hall before, and His Royal Highness Xinkang must apologize for his sins. For this reason, there are many discussions outside, and many highnesses feel that this matter is inappropriate. Weichen also contacted many parties to plan the movement, but ...... People are soft-spoken! ”

"How so? …… How so? ...... "I pounded the sickbed in agony, again and again. "How could the lord give such an order? Isn't this painful for the relatives and fast for the enemy! How could such a thing happen in the world! …… Cough, cough, cough ......" I coughed violently from excitement.

"Take care, lord!" The half-guard of Takenaka hurriedly picked up the tea on the low table and handed it to me.

"In this way, Your Highness Yuzhou, you have agreed to come forward!" Tadaji Sakai was worried with a hint of excitement.

"I'm going to ...... now," I struggled to get up, lifting the quilt, but the empty physical strength at the moment was completely insufficient to withstand such an exercise. I stumbled on the couch, and after a series of violent coughs, two blood stains flowed from my nostrils.

"Your Highness (Your Highness)!" Takenaka Hanbei and Sakai Tadaji were shocked and got together to help me up. "Lord, take care!" Hanbei Takenaka said excitedly

"It seems that I can't go to see my lord right away......" I picked up a handkerchief and wiped the blood from my upper lip, but my nose was still filled with a warm and fishy feeling. I will write you a letter to your lord now, hoping that it will shake his resolve. As long as we can put this matter down first, and leave a chance for us to think of something else! ”

"That's it!" Although this result did not completely satisfy Sakai Tadaji, it was the only way to do it for the time being.

I already had pen and ink in my bedroom, and the half-guards in Takenaka took it and studied it for me, and then spread the paper on the low table and brought it to me. Faced with the thin stack of white paper in front of me, I had so many thoughts that I really didn't know where to put my pen down. For a moment, I even really wanted to rescue Tokugawa Nobuyasu, but when I thought about the consequences of the Tokugawa family's big seat, my heart couldn't help but cool again. This era is a world of the jungle, so don't be so sentimental! I stroked my hand over the top piece of paper to make it a little smoother, then leaned down and began to write.

"Cough, cough, cough......" I coughed again, this time so loud that it reached outside the house. A few drops of blood flowed out of his nose and fell on the letter paper that had just been half written.

"Lord!" The half-guard of Takenaka straightened up and exclaimed, and Sakai Tadaji beside him also showed a look of unbearability.

"Your Highness!" There was a slight running in the hallway, followed by a nervous inquiry, but I didn't dare to open the door and come in without my orders.

I waved my hand at the half-guards in Takenaka, and then shouted out the door, "I'm fine, stand down!" After saying that, he continued to write.

The people outside the house said yes, but apparently did not leave. There was no sound, but a faint figure was reflected in the door.

"That's it!" I put down my pen and wiped the sweat from my forehead, presumably looking extremely tired. I wrote this letter intermittently for half an hour, seven large sheets of paper, which can be said to be tearful, and two of them were stained with my blood. "Take this letter to my lord, and I'll go again after I get better!" I packed the letter in front of Tadaji Sakai and handed it to him.

"Your Highness Xie Yuzhou!" Sakai Tadaji cautiously received the letter in his arms.

"Shigeji, you can also accompany Sakai-sama on a trip!" I reluctantly said a word to the Takenaka Hanbei, and then leaned back on the pillow weakly.

"My lord, ...... you," Takenaka Hanbei asked uneasily, looking very worried.

"This matter is urgent, I will not be fine!" I panted and waved at them, then picked up my tea and took a sip. "You two are going right away, I'll think about any other way!"

"Your Highness take care!" The Takenaka Hanbei was obviously still a little worried, but he retreated together after Sakai Tadaji pulled his sleeve.

"Fog Butterfly! Fog Butterfly! "I shouted at the top of my voice as the footsteps of the two of them disappeared at the end of the hallway." Isn't it sincere to take such a big medicine! I grumbled to myself.
