Chapter 118: See the General

As a daimyo, his every move is naturally highly watched. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info So in history, although there were many daimyo and family governors who went to Beijing to visit the imperial court and generals, they all acted in secret. After all, if the news of their absence from the territory comes out, it will definitely attract the prying eyes of foreign enemies, and even the rebellion of dissidents inside.

And Oda Nobunaga and others are naturally the same, although Yamada Nobumura has always felt that he should bring more people to show the strength of the Oda family, but Oda Nobunaga obviously can't agree to such a positive thing.

In fact, this time in Beijing, in addition to Oda Nobunaga and Yamada Nobumura, there was only Niwa Nagahide and two flags who were responsible for carrying things. After all, it is impossible to go to Beijing empty-handed, right? And Oda Nobunaga, they can't be in charge of moving things. Moreover, they didn't just go directly, but dressed up as traveling merchants.

There are many ways to get to Kyoto from Owari, from Mino and from Ise to Kyoto via Omi. However, compared to the sworn enemy Tokiya and the war-torn Ise Province, the journey from Tsushima to Kaimachi and from Kaimachi to Kyoto was undoubtedly safer and faster.

In fact, all the iron cannons that Oda Nobunaga bought from Kaimachi were transported in this way. Speaking of which, if it weren't for Tsushima's relationship, it would not have been easy for Oda Nobunaga to buy so many iron cannons. After all, with so many iron cannons passing under their noses every day, even if it was a caravan in Kaimachi, it was difficult to ensure that no one would be tempted.

"Well, it's boring, let's get some pirates to pass the time." Nobumura Yamada leaned on the side of the boat and said with a bored look. Going to sea may be a very exciting thing for people who have never experienced it, and Yamada Nobumura did run around the boat with an excited face at first, looking at the sea as if he had seen some peerless beauty.

However, after a few days, his excitement began to fade rapidly, and after going to sea a few times, he had completely lost interest in the sea. And now, it's just like he took a plane or something like that in his previous life, just as a means of transportation. And it was also a very boring trip because there was no mobile phone......

"Damn, you crow's mouth, if a pirate really comes, I'll leave you over and we'll go by ourselves." Oda Nobunaga scolded angrily.

Hawkers,Speaking of which,According to the general process,,At this time, there should be a pirate.,Let the protagonist exert his power at the same time.,By the way, give a woman.,A few treasures.,By the way, offend a strong enemy.,Plus learn about some conspiracy.。

Unfortunately, until I arrived at Kaimachi, it was still so calm, and even the weather was beautiful, perfect for sleeping. And in fact, Nobumura Yamada really slept all the way. It was as if I was sleeping on a sleeper on a train in my previous life, waking up and sleeping, and waking up.

When they arrived at Kaimachi, they didn't stop and went straight to Kyoto. Although Yamada Nobumura was very dissatisfied with this, there was nothing he could do. As mentioned earlier, in this troubled world where enemies are on all sides, the departure of the family governor and daimyo is quite dangerous for the family. Therefore, Oda Nobunaga's visit this time was only a short 3 days.

"Well, I didn't come if I knew I wouldn't come." Yamada Nobumura complained unhappily.

After arriving in Kyoto, he first found a lodging house to settle in, then Oda Nobunaga and the others rested, while Niwa Nagahide went to contact the ministers.

"Yoshibo-sama, speaking of which, the current general should be Ashikaga Yoshiteru, right? Wasn't he kicked out by the Miyoshi family? Yamada Nobumura asked curiously. He didn't know much about the life of Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and the only thing he knew more clearly was the Miyoshi three-person attack planned by Matsunaga Hide. And the reason why I understand it, the reason is also very simple, because when playing Taige 5, no matter who you play, there will be such an event, no matter how uninteresting you are, remember it.

"You......" Oda Nobunaga looked at Yamada Nobumura helplessly, and he didn't know what to say.

"He's back." Oda Nobunaga, who was too lazy to explain, casually perfunctory.

"Cut, why do you come back in this situation? If it were me, I would have gone elsewhere a long time ago. Yamada Nobumura said disdainfully.

In other words, there were times when he really looked down on the so-called general, and he still stayed in without any hope of regaining his former prestige. Well, there are indeed forces here that support the shogun's family, just like the Rokkaku family, who have been helping and staying for him since Ashikaga Yoshiteru's father.

But in reality? Even now that Ashikaga Yoshiteru has returned to Kyoto, Yamada Nobumura does not believe that his decree can reach far, and he may not even be able to leave Kyoto.

In that case, it's better to leave and find a brain-dead fan who supports the general to make a comeback. You must know that in this era, there are still many enthusiastic young people who care about the shogunate.

......Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga glanced at Yamada Nobumura and was too lazy to speak. Because he knew that if he answered, God knew what kind of rebellious words would come out of Yamada Nobumura.

After a long time, Niwa Nagahide finally returned, along with Ashikaga Yoshiteru's retainer Hosokawa Fujitaka. After conveying Ashikaga Yoshiteru's thanks and informing him of the time for tomorrow's meeting, he left in a hurry.

"Just leave?" Yamada Nobumura blinked twice, he couldn't understand what Hosokawa Fujitaka was doing here.

"Or else? Are you still here to eat? Oda Nobunaga replied angrily.

"But why don't you stay a little longer, like learning about the situation of the Oda family, or something." Yamada Nobumura said suspiciously, in his previous life, even if it was a small broken leader meeting, it would take a lot of nonsense to get to the point, and it would take 3 or 4 hours casually. But now? It seems to add up to only 4 sentences, right?

"Idiot ......" Oda Nobunaga sneered lightly, and then left directly.

"Manchiyo?" Seeing this, Yamada Nobumura could only look at Niwa Nagahide.

"Alas...... Overlord Maru, the general's family is now down, so his skills have become practical. It's been a long time since you've been in the same situation. Niwa Nagahide said helplessly, and then left in a hurry. Speaking of which, he was in charge of everything when he came to meet the general this time, but he was very busy.

After a night's rest, the next morning everyone came to the place where Ashikaga Yoshiteru lives today. At the door, Hosokawa Fujitaka was already waiting there.

"Haha~ It turned out to be Hosokawa-sama who greeted me personally, which really flattered me~" Oda Nobunaga said with a smile.

"Hehe~ Where is His Royal Highness Oda, in this situation, the Oda family still hasn't forgotten the favor of the shogunate, and they deserve this treatment." Hosokawa Fujitaka said gently.

"Loading ...... Then pretend to ......" Yamada Nobumura looked at the two in front of him boredly, thinking with disdain in his heart.

With his understanding of Oda Nobunaga, it was impossible for him to care about this kind of thing, maybe at this time in his heart, he had long since stopped taking the shogunate or anything into his eyes. And what about Hosokawa Fujitaka? Even if Nobumura Yamada has always lived in Owari, it cannot change the definition of Owari as a rural place.

Then, the courtiers of the dignified general personally greeted the daimyo of the countryside at the gate...... It's like the secretary of a state leader going to greet the magistrate of a county seat.

However, all this has nothing to do with Yamada Nobumura, to be honest, he followed Oda Nobunaga to Kyoto this time, just to serve as his bodyguard.

Walking to the front of the main hall, Yamada Nobumura saw a man in the official costume sitting in the front seat from a distance. "He's Ashikaga Yoshiteru? It doesn't look too old~" Yamada Nobumura thought to himself.

Ashikaga Yoshiteru looks like he is about 20 and looks quite resolute and handsome. Especially those eyes, which are unusually sharp, I don't know if it's because of the practice of swordsmanship. But what he cared about the most was the aura that emanated from Ashikaga Yoshiteru, an aura called the strong.

"It's worthy of being a sword general, although it's not as long as Xingjiu, but it's not much worse......" Yamada Nobumura looked at Ashikaga Yoshiki with some surprise and thought secretly. In his heart, Shiraki Yuki's swordsmanship talent is completely at the top level, and he is also an absolute sword idiot, coupled with Yamada Nobumura's training. It can be said that Yamada Nobumura never thought that someone could approach his level when he was about the same age.

And you must know that Ashikaga Yoshiteru's ability was practiced in his spare time, after all, he is a general of Zhengyi, and most of the time it is impossible to use it to practice swordsmanship like Xingjiu.

And when Yamada Nobumura was observing Ashikaga Yoshiteru, Ashikaga Yoshiteru was also observing Oda Nobunaga and the two. Maybe the strong will attract each other, right? Although Ashikaga Yoshiteru kept looking at Oda Nobunaga, most of his attention was on Yamada Nobumura. Especially when he saw Yamada Nobumura's Yagi, his eyes were even more inexplicably bright.

"Everyone, please leave your saber to ......your subordinates for safekeeping," a retainer walked over and whispered softly.

"Huh?" Yamada Nobumura glanced at him suspiciously, and refused without thinking, "I'm sorry, my saber will never leave ......"

"Oops! Forgot to tell him about it! Oda Nobunaga and Niwa Nagahide suddenly thought helplessly. Well, when you visit someone of higher status than yourself, you have to remove your saber, which has been a rule everywhere since ancient times. It's just a pity that Nobumura Yamada never seems to have this kind of self-awareness, and at the same time, he has never encountered such a situation.

Hawkers, strictly speaking, this kid has never had the opportunity to meet a big man other than Oda Nobunaga on a formal occasion in his life. Shotokuji Temple counted once, but at that time, the relationship between the Saito and Oda families was impossible to be without weapons. So at this time, Yamada Nobumura's tone was so natural.

It's just that this kind of remark obviously makes this retainer angry, even if the prestige of the shogun's family has dropped to the bottom now, it's not something that you, a retainer from a rural daimyo, in Owari can treat with this attitude, right? At that moment, he was going to blast this group of people out, but before he could say anything, he was stopped by Ashikaga Yoshiteru.

"I have long heard that there is a young samurai in the Owari Oda family whose martial arts are similar to demons, named Yamada Masamura. Come to think of it, this is the one, right? Ashikaga Yoshiteru chuckled and walked up to Oda Nobunaga and smiled, not showing the slightest anger.

Oda Nobunaga was afraid that Yamada Nobumura would say something terrible again, so he hurriedly stopped it. "His Royal Highness the General, this is Yamada Masamura, but not long ago, I gave him the word of my family." Oda Nobunaga said respectfully, with an inexplicable meaning.

Well, although everyone thinks that the authority of the shogun's family has fallen to the bottom, in fact, except for the Miyoshi family, who controls, there is really no daimyo who dares to really look down on the shogun's family. After all, the three good people dare to offend the general, and that's because they can get a puppet general at any time. But if it's a country name like Oda Nobunaga, hehe......

After all, the rule of the shogunate in this era has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and even Miyoshi Chokei, the peerless hero, can only make a puppet shogunate and dare not directly destroy them.

"I see~" Ashikaga Yoshiki smiled, and then boldly invited the three of them in.

After a period of pleasantries, Oda Nobunaga asked Niwa Nagahide to offer a gift, which was equivalent to about 4,000 pieces of gold.

"This!" When Ashikaga Yoshiki saw the gold, he immediately stood up excitedly. 6,000 yuan, that's quite a lot of money! This is especially true for the Ashikaga family today.

Although the Ashikaga family and the Miyoshi family were temporarily reconciled under the mediation of the Rokkaku family, everyone understood that this was just a period of time for the Miyoshi family to cultivate. When the Miyoshi family recovers, they will definitely drive the Ashikaga family out of Kyoto again.

And for Ashikaga Yoshiteru, it was definitely uncomfortable to be constantly driven away like a dog, and he was also a man of promise who wanted to restore the authority of the shogunate. In this case, war is inevitable, and this money will bring valuable troops and equipment to the Ashikaga family in future wars.

"What the three good families do, people and gods are angry! It's a pity that my family is several countries away from Kyoto, so I can't afford to send troops to help. I can only offer some military expenses as a token of my gratitude......," Oda Nobunaga said Ling Ran.

"Good! Good! Good! The Oda family is worthy of being loyal servants of the shogunate! This gift! I took it! Ashikaga Yoshiteru said excitedly.

However, Oda Nobunaga offered so much money naturally cannot be really unconditional support, and Ashikaga Yoshiteru cannot be stupid to take it for nothing. After thinking about it, Ashikaga Yoshiteru immediately said, "Oda Nobunaga, you have been instrumental in quelling the Owari Rebellion for many years!" Due to the disappearance of Owari Hara's guardian Yoshiin Spo, Oda Nobunaga is now appointed as the Owari guardian! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Oda Nobunaga immediately fell to the ground and shouted.

"In addition, Yamada Nobumura helped Owari protect Oda Nobunaga to quell the rebellion, and I will report to the imperial court the next day and give him the position of bullet loyalty!"

"Huh?" Yamada Nobumura looked at Ashikaga Yoshiteru stupidly, and couldn't understand why this old man suddenly gave him an official position, and the name was quite familiar.
