The governor of the Nine Ghost Family is now Nine Ghost Jialong, but in fact, before him, the head of the Nine Ghost Family was his brother, and after his brother's death, he was succeeded by his son Nine Ghost Chenglong. Hawkers, the father dies and the son succeeds, which is also a very normal thing. It's just that not long after the Nine Ghosts Chenglong succeeded him, he suddenly fell ill and died. As for him, because he is still young, he naturally has no heirs. So, Nine Ghost Jialong jumped out and became the governor of the Nine Ghost Family.

Well, this kind of rumor about inheritance, it seems that every family that inherits peacefully. And what about the families that have no rumors about it? Tsk, that's a fight directly for inheritance. Perhaps this is also the reason why many families have worked hard for decades, and they are still such a small piece of territory?

And not long after the Nine Demons Yoshitaka succeeded him as the governor, he revealed his ambition and built a new castle, Toba Castle, as his residence.

Although this Toba Castle is called a castle, it is just a castle. Of course, that's not the point, the point is that the castle was built in the Ise Jingu Shrine's sphere of influence.

Well, in this era, temples have their own territory, and so are shrines. Ise Jingu is not actually a shrine, but a general name for 125 shrines in Ise Province. Among them, the most representative ones are the Imperial Grand Shrine, which is called the Inner Palace, and the Toyosu Great Shrine, which is the outer palace. As a result, it has a very strong influence in Ise. Although this influence has declined because of the war everywhere at this time, it is not something that any cat or dog can bully.

However, during the Sengoku period, most of the shrines disappeared from the flames of war. Finally, the so-called Ise Jingu Shrine refers to the Imperial Grand Shrine and the Toyosu Great Shrine most of the time.

As a result, the Kitada family, the overlord of Southern Ise, received a letter of help from the Ise Shrine, and then Kitada Gukyo united the Shima clan, who were dissatisfied with the Nine Demons Kataka, and invaded the territory of the Nine Demons together. It's just a pity that although Kitada Gujiao's swordsmanship is a little stronger in the world, maybe the war is not bad, but at least, the classmate who commanded the Kitada army to attack the Nine Ghost Family this time failed.

Since then, the Nine Demons Yoshitaka has completely secured the position of the overlord of the Shima Kingdom. But obviously, Ise Jingu didn't plan to leave it at that.

"Oda-sama, you're the only one who can help Ise Jingu right now!" Taio Fujimoto knelt down in front of Oda Yoshinobu and pleaded.

"Tsk, is this what it's called dozing off, does anyone send a pillow?" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Kameda and thought amusedly. But obviously, there can be no such coincidence in the world. In fact, the news of the attack on Shima Province was sent by Oda Yoshinobu to Reilu to Ise Jingu, as for the purpose...... It's halfway through now.

"Hehe, the Fujimoto priest doesn't need to be so polite, in the war between the Imagawa family and the main family in the past, you and the Imperial Shrine have always been firmly on the side of the Oda family~ Just for this, I will help you in the next ~" Oda Yoshinobu said with a smile.

"Weaving ...... Oda-sama is serious...... In the next just ...... I just made a smart choice......" Hearing this, Taifu Fujimoto replied with a sneer, while pulling out a silk scarf to wipe the sweat from his head.

Oda Yoshinobu would say this, mainly because before Tsubashima, the Ise Jingu side was also divided into two factions. As mentioned earlier, Ise Jingu nowadays mainly refers to the Outer Imperial Imperial Shrine and the Inner Imperial Imperial Shrine. Before the Oda family and the Imagawa family went to war, the priest of the outer palace, Taio Kameda, secretly took refuge in the Imagawa family.

Of course, this so-called defection does not mean that they are subservient to the Imagawa family, and with their power and status, it is impossible for them to surrender to the Imagawa family, whose power is not in Ise Province. The so-called refuge here only refers to the transfer of the original trade with the Oda family to the Imagawa family by the Outer Palace.

This will only have one effect, that is, the money that the Oda family could earn has become the Imagawa family's earnings. It doesn't sound like much, but if you think about the fact that modern times like to use the economy to sanction a certain country at every turn, and then think about why Oda Nobuhide used the small territory that had not yet unified the four prefectures of Owari to conquer the west, you can understand the impact of this incident on the Oda family.

And although the Great Shrine of the Emperor of Inner Power is still on the side of the Oda family, in fact, if it weren't for the strength shown by Oda Nobunaga and the constant discord between the inner palace and the outer palace, I'm afraid that Fujimoto Taio would also fall to the Imagawa family. If that happens, the blow to the Oda family will be absolutely devastating. You must know that most of Tsushima's trade is on the side of Ise Jingu.

So to say that Oda Yoshinobu is really grateful to Ise Jingu is obviously impossible, and Fujimoto Taio obviously understands this truth. It's just that now, who else can he turn to other than the Oda family? Kitada Gukyo has been defeated, and there is no one in the entire Ise Province who can help him against the Nine Ghost Family.

And how did Fujimoto Taifu not understand why he learned that Oda Yoshinobu wanted to attack Shima Province? So, he came, and he came in a very low profile.

"Oda-sama, you don't know how arrogant the Nine Demons Kataka is, who not only usurped the Divine Domain, but also threatened to monopolize the shipping of the entire Ise Bay. If you don't stop it, explain your lordship's Argoth Chamber of Commerce......" Fujimoto said cautiously.

"Oh? Priest Fujimoto, are you threatening me? Oda Yoshinobu leaned on the desk, tilted his head to look at Fujimoto Taifu, and said in an indifferent tone.

"Nope! Absolutely nothing! When Taifu Fujimoto heard this, he immediately denied it in horror, "In the next ...... ......He kept wiping the beads of sweat from his head, but it was obvious that the pressure Oda Yoshinobu had put on him had already made him soaked.

Seeing Oda Yoshinobu staring at him intently, Fujimoto didn't know why, and always felt that there was a knife hanging around his neck. It was a feeling he had never felt before. He had seen Oda Nobunaga, and the feeling he had was domineering, domineering that made people surrender. But what about Yoshinobu Oda? Fujimoto Taifu can only feel the murderous aura, perhaps, this is the difference between a fierce general and a monarch?

Just when this meeting seemed to be about to collapse, Taifu Fujimoto suddenly bowed down in front of Oda Yoshinobu and said with a solemn expression, "Oda-sama, I know that His Highness Oda has promulgated a regulation called the Oda Family Domain Law at the last time. If Oda-sama is willing to help Ise Jingu, I promise that when you unify Ise Province, I will do my best to help you implement this law in Ise Province, and Ise Jingu will take the lead in enforcing this law! ”

"Oh?" When Oda Yoshinobu heard this, he was suddenly a little surprised. Heaven and earth conscience, before revealing the news to Too Fujimoto, he definitely didn't think about it so much. All he did was to hope that Taifu Fujimoto would give in to the Oda family and knock out a sum of money by the way. But now, he couldn't have imagined that Taio Fujimoto would be able to make such a big determination. You must know that once this law is enforced, the loss of Ise Jingu will be much greater than the income of the territory that the Nine Ghost Family has encroached upon.

But then, Oda Yoshinobu understood Fujimoto Taifu's little ninety-nine. If the Oda family unified Ise Province, would they be able to prevent the promulgation and implementation of the law even if Ise Jingu opposed it? No way! Mino, Owari, and Mikawa are all executed, so why is Ise Province an exception?

Moreover, the Oda family, as the victors, promulgated this law at that time, and it is unlikely that they will encounter much resistance. The mere Ise Jingu doesn't have the ability to stop it. Therefore, Taifu Fujimoto simply pushed the boat down the river and preemptively expressed his attitude that if the Oda family failed to unify Ise Province, he could also sell the Oda family. If it is unified...... At least now, Oda Yoshinobu can't refuse Ise Jingu's request, can he?

"This old fox!" Oda Yoshinobu looked at Fujimoto Taifu unhappily and cursed in his heart. He really couldn't refuse, although he knew what Fujimoto Taifu was planning, but what was the use? After all, the status of the shrine is still transcendent after all, even if there is anything unpleasant, unless the other party is really hostile to him, it is impossible for Oda Yoshinobu to make any excessive moves.

However, I don't know if Taifu Fujimoto sensed Oda Yoshinobu's unhappiness, or if he himself felt that it was not good for Oda Yoshinobu to be so calculated. After all, he also knew that Oda Nobunaga had appointed Oda Yoshinobu as the general of the Ise Kingdom, and that once the Ise Province was captured, then Oda Yoshinobu would be the master of the Ise Country.

Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, he said to Oda Yoshinobu again, "Oda-sama, Zai also knew that the condition just now was a bit far away, so Zai Xia also prepared a gift for your lord. As he spoke, Mr. Fujimoto clapped his hands, and then two women dressed in shrine maiden costumes walked in.

"They ......" Oda Yoshinobu looked at the two women in surprise, he naturally didn't know them, but their appearance reminded Oda Yoshinobu of a pair of sisters he had seen in the game in his previous life.

"Oda-sama, the two of them are the daughter of a family governor named Kagura in the affiliated family of Ise Jingu, and the Kagura family has been a shrine maiden in Ise Jingu for generations......" Taifu Fujimoto kept introducing Oda Yoshinobu, but unfortunately, Oda Yoshinobu didn't listen to a word, only remembered three words.

Kagura ...... Ten Thousand Turtles...... Chizuru......
