Faced with the request of the black-clothed monk, Xueshan Xinjun closed his eyes for a while, reopened his eyes and said: "Master, my Xueshan family is deeply favored by the clan, and it is very kind, and the lord married his daughter to the royal family, and is regarded as a royal family, if he turns his back on the clan, he is not an ungrateful person." ”

After saying this, Anayama Shinjun's face showed an awe-inspiring look.

The black-clothed monk laughed and said: "Your Highness Anayama, why do you turn your back on the clan family, my Imagawa family does not mean to destroy the Takeda family, but I can't bear to see the Takeda family repeat the scene of the Yaukawa Rebellion, father and son fighting, and brothers killing each other, so I sent troops into Kai, and retreated afterwards, not taking a single grass or tree from Kai." ”

Hearing this, Anayama Nobuyan's face softened slightly, and he said: "The discord between His Royal Highness and the lord is an internal matter of the Takeda family, so naturally the Takeda family is responsible for it, but the Imagawa family does not intervene. ”

The black-clothed monk smiled slightly, took out a letter from his sleeve, and said, "This letter written by His Royal Highness Yoshinobu to the head of the Imagawa family, Lord Anayama, can be seen. ”

After taking the letter, Anayama Nobuyan read it carefully, his face changed slightly, and he said: "His Royal Highness Yoshinobu, if you really take the initiative to collude with Imagawa first. ”

The black-clothed monk shook his head and said: "Shin Xuan Gong wants to abolish the heir, and he wants to betray the alliance of Kai Suruga for decades, this is the first, His Royal Highness Yoshinobu can't bear to see his father do such an unbelieving and unrighteous act, so he asked the head of the Imagawa family for help in order to set things right." ”

"You can't say that." Nobukun Anayama still refused.

The black-clothed monk's face sank, and he said, "Could it be that His Highness Cave Mountain, regardless of the harmonious relationship between the Cave Mountain family and the Imagawa family for decades, does not talk about the slightest affection?" ”

Anayama Nobuyan sighed and said, "Master Huzai, your tongue is like a knife, don't push me anymore." ”

The black-clothed monk saw that Xueshan Xinjun was moved, and took advantage of the situation and said: "If His Royal Highness Xueshan agrees to this matter, the poor monk can promise on behalf of the Imagawa family, whether it is successful or not, to reward Your Excellency with 5,000 yuan." If His Royal Highness Yoshinobu can inherit the position of family governor, the relationship between the Anayama family and the Takeda family will remain unchanged. ”

Anayama Nobuyo's expression moved, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Master Lao, go back and report to the head of the Imagawa family, there is a small road at the border of my Anayama territory, which can lead directly to Kofu, if the situation does not change after a day, the Imagawa family can act freely." ”

The black-clothed monk smiled slightly when he heard this, thinking that Anayama Nobuyuki didn't dare to take this responsibility here, if the matter was revealed, he could completely shirk the responsibility, saying that the Imagawa family sneaked up on the road and bypassed his territory.

However, the black-clothed monk still said, "Thank you, Your Highness, then I will return to the head of the family." ”

Anayama Nobuyan suddenly said: "Master Huzai, you are not a diplomatic monk of the Imagawa family, and you don't know His Royal Highness Yoshinobu, why do you run for them?" The master might as well vote for me, I will definitely treat the master as a guest and obey his words. ”

The black-clothed monk said: "Your Royal Highness's kindness to the poor monk has received it, the poor monk was greatly favored by the monk of Taiyuan Xuezhai back then, and was entrusted by him to take care of the Imagawa family one or two, and now this matter is over, and he will continue to practice in the next meeting." ”

Hearing this, Xueshan Xinjun laughed and asked, "It's really my regret that the master can't be effective, but you Linji Sect monks, do you also talk about repaying kindness?" ”

The black-clothed monk clasped his hands together and said with a smile: "In the world, people have cause and effect, kindness is easy to forget, and resentment is difficult to eliminate. ”

After speaking, the black-clothed monk smiled and walked out of the residence.

Xueshan Xinjun looked at the back of the black-clothed monk, and secretly said a pity, thinking that this person has a splendid belly, and his knowledge is not inferior to Taiyuan Xuezhai and Qixiu Yuanbo, and it is a pity that he can't get his assistance.

Jiafei, Jumo County, Rice Rich Township.

The Iitomi clan is from, the brother of the Kai Takeda Nobuyoshi twins, Yimi Mitsucho, and it is recorded in the line of respect and inferiority that Yimi Mitsunaga was born as a brother, and Takeda Nobuyoshi was born as a younger brother.

Later, Yi saw the son of Guangchang (there is also an adopted son), came to Fanfu Township to be official, so he took the local place name Miao.

ps: There is also a saying that it is from the Hachiman Taro Genyoshi family.

Takeda Katsurai, Li Xiao, and Shigang Yiyu spared no horsepower along the way, urging the war horses to gallop, but the pursuers behind them were still getting closer and closer.

But fortunately, at this time, the outline of Fanfu Township had gradually become clear in Li Xiao's eyes.

Fanfu Township can be said to be a small fortress with a military role, surrounded by wooden fences, a six-foot-high earthen ram, and a bamboo building on top of it.

When Li Xiao and the others reached a distance of only dozens of rooms from the gate of Iitomo Township, a group of horseback teams mixed with the ashigaru team came out of the main gate of Xiaoqi and stopped Li Xiao and Takeda Katsuyori.

"Who the hell came to my rich township?"

The first horseman spoke.

"Presumptuous, this is His Royal Highness Suwa Shiro Katsuyori, don't hurry up and salute!" Shigang Yiyu preemptively said.

"His Highness Shiro!" The other party showed a look of hesitation and asked, "In the Shimocang Branch Heavy Guard, please forgive me for offending, I don't know what can be proved?" And what's going on with the brigade of cavalry behind you? ”

As the two were talking, the sound of horses' hooves behind them rang loudly.

Kurashira Shigebei looked at Takeda Katsuyori's large cavalry team, his eyes showed a look of vigilance, and after looking at it for a while, he was surprised, and said: "This is the red reserve team of this family, great, the head of the family is back." Hurry up and go to Lord Yumeibei. ”

Takeda Katsurai, Li Xiao glanced at each other, and suddenly had a feeling of being caught in the net.

Li Xiao said on the side: "Yes, please see Fan Fubei, we have something important to say." ”

At this time, the Chibei cavalry had already arrived, and in a semicircle, Li Xiao and Takeda Shenglai were half surrounded and formed a circle.

Seeing that the two sides seemed to be opposed, Kurasha Shigebei couldn't help but hesitate, and at the same time showed hostility towards Li Xiao and Takeda Katsuyori.

"Look, Lord-sama."

Seeing that Changjing Zema appeared at the door of Fanfu Township, Cangke Heavy Guards hurriedly stepped forward and said.

Yama Yama Changjing waved his hand, signaling that Kurashi Heavy Guards didn't need to say any more, and instead came to Takeda Katsuyori, saluted on the horse, and said, "See Your Highness." ”

Takeda Katsuyori saw Yama County's Changjing's expression widened, and he said, "Lord Iifu, I came to ...... this time."

"Your Highness, there is no need to say everything, I already know everything." Changjing of Shan County intercepted the words.

"Then how did Iitomi-sama decide?" Takeda Katsuyori showed a hint of apprehension.

Shan County Changjing sighed, looked up into the distance, and said: "My brother treats me like a brother and a father, and my art of war and military strategy are all taught by him. The lord also treats me well, and if it weren't for his promotion, I, Gengoro, would never have the status of a general with three hundred horsemen. ”

Takeda Katsuyori nodded, and said with emotion: "Is it loyalty or filial piety, it is indeed a dilemma, Lord Yamasan, no matter what choice you make, I will never blame you." ”

As soon as Takeda Shenglai said this, Li Xiao suddenly showed a look of surprise, and said in his heart, Takeda Shenglai is a master, this hand is an emperor's mental skill, but he has no teacher.

Hearing what Takeda Katsuyori said, Changjing of Zhenshan County showed a look of gratitude, and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, please rest assured, no matter what, Gengoro will not betray the Takeda family, don't say that it is a brother, even if the whole world is an enemy of the Takeda family, my Shan County Changjing is also the main father's liver and brain." ”

As soon as Shan County Changjing said this, Li Xiao and Takeda Shenglai were all overjoyed, and this bet was right.

After saying that, Shan County Changjing made a move, and rushed out from the gate with a team of ashigaru armed with spears, and in a semicircle, Takeda Katsuyori and Li Xiao were guarding in the center.

Seeing this scene, the samurai commander who commanded the Red Reserve Army's face changed slightly, and said loudly: "Lord Bingwei, you have to think twice, these three people are the characters of His Royal Highness Yoshinobu and your brother, who must be eradicated. ”

Shan County Changjing nodded and said: "I know this, go back to my brother, it's too late to turn back, if he is willing to persuade His Royal Highness Yixin to give up the usurpation, I am willing to go with him to the lord to ask for guilt, the worst result, our rich family will be cut off from now on!" ”

"It's a good family name to be cut off, is it Gorou, are you so willful?"

A deep voice came from behind, and a military general dressed in bright red armor and wearing a horn pocket rode out.

"Brother!" Shan County Changjing was suddenly surprised, he didn't expect that Fan Fu Huchang would actually chase after the team.

Fan Fu Huchang stared at Shan County Chang Jing and said: "Goro, you are so disappointed in me, how I have taught you since I was a child, everything is based on the family business of Fan Fu's family. If I assist His Highness Yoshinobu this time and can't succeed, do you know what the consequences of waiting for my rich family will be? Are you worthy of your father? Are you worthy of your ancestors? ”

Shan Shan Changjing said: "Brother, but you also taught me that the Takeda family has a great kindness to my rich family, and we must obey the Zong family and put the Zong family first. Now that the head of the family is still alive, you assisted his son in usurping the throne, so how can you be loyal? ”

Fan Fu Huchang sighed and said: "My lord, I have made a big mistake, if I don't obey the advice as a courtier, I must stand up and let the lord correct it, otherwise it will be against the way of the samurai." His Royal Highness Yixin was also forced to do this. When the Xinhu Gong was there, the people of the country turned their backs, and didn't everyone also assist the lord to exile the Xinhu Gong? ”

Shan County Changjing said: "The lord is different from the Xinhu Gong, when the Xinhu Gong killed the countrymen indiscriminately, so the people abandoned him, but the lord is a wise lord, since he took charge of the family governor, he has destroyed countless names. Isn't it because we have such glory and accomplishment that we have been blessed by the Lord? If it is rebellion, it is both disloyalty and ingratitude. ”

Seeing that Changjing of Shan County said resolutely, Fan Fuhu Chang took a deep breath and said: "Goro, you have grown up and have your own ideas, and you gradually don't put my brother's words in your ears. There is no point in arguing with this tongue now. I don't want to see this brother kill each other, and I ask you one last time, which side are you on? ”

Hearing this, Changjing of Shan County looked sad, sighed and said: "The scene of brothers killing each other is not just a scene of my rich family, brother, you assisted His Highness in usurping the throne, isn't it also a father and son cannibalism?" Presumably, the pain in the lord's heart at this moment is better than ours at this moment. ”

Fan Fu Huchang laughed and said: "Cannibalism, this is the misfortune of you and me, and the misfortune of the Takeda family, Gorou, since you have made a decision, I have nothing to say, now you and I are two brothers, only one of them can live." ”
