"Back to the lord, I handed it over to the Jing Yi Naohu of the family for the time being." I replied.

"Naotora Ii?" Nobunaga asked rhetorically. Apparently, he had not heard the name.

"It's the ...... I was obsessed with last time in Mikawa," I explained.

"Oh! It's that beauty! Nobunaga let out a burst of laughter, "You guy, you can really figure it out!" With a lady in the military tent, can't you still be satisfied? ”

"This ...... Your Majesty really doesn't have that kind of idea! "I'm sweating profusely. Nobunaga said this!

"Okay, if you want to explain, just tell Nana!" Nobunaga handed Keijiro to Nana and ordered, "Let's all go down!" ”

"Yes!" The guards agreed in unison and left the lookout. That's when I noticed that there wasn't a single one in it that I knew.

Then, Nana and Ishitani Yorichen also went down, leaving only Nobunaga and me on the lookout. He paced behind me, and suddenly he hit me in the head.

"Are you in a bad head! I actually went to Kyoto to meet the shogun without permission! He roared loudly, "Do you know that when Fujihachi participated in the assessment, he reported your matter, and Gonroku and Sakuma are about to send troops to fight against you!" If it hadn't been for Nagahide to stop him, and Katsuzaburo happened to be in Komaki Mountain, and he also spoke for you, I'm afraid that my Oda family's army would have already hit here! ”

"Yes, it is true that his subordinates are too Meng Lang...... Because it involves the ownership of the family's treasure, the subordinates really did not think it through. I quickly admitted my mistake.

This sentence is a half-truth. Of course, there is one reason, but there is also another reason to give Akechi Mitsuhide face, and there is also to look at the situation in Kinai and the general Yoshiki. According to the current trend, although there is a deviation, I am afraid that his ending will not change.

"Alright! For the sake of your performance, I will forgive you this time. Nobunaga sighed and sat down in the middle of the lookout, "Since you've been there once, tell me about what you've seen and heard in Kyoto." ”

"Yes......" I told Nobunaga about the meeting.

"It seems that as soon as Dr. Miyoshi Ukyo dies, Kinai will be in chaos immediately......" Nobunaga muttered, and then asked me, "Do you think Matsunaga Shu will master Kinai?" ”

"In your court's humble opinion, I'm afraid not," I shook my head, "Most of Matsunaga Hide's authority comes from the late Miyoshi Ukyo Doctor, who was able to control Kawachi and Yamato Bankoku at most. Moreover, as far as he is concerned, although he is outstanding in ability and power, he lacks prestige and strength; From the perspective of his family, only Naito Munekatsu, the younger brother of Tamba's guardian, can be relied on. ”

"In other words, do you think the Gongfang Palace will win?"

"The palace tree of the public palace is very popular, but it is too hasty...... Also, I'm too obsessed with swordsmanship. In the next opinion, no matter how high the swordsmanship is, the effect is limited after all, and if it is really the turn of the Gongfang Hall to go into battle in person, then the situation is probably very serious! I said as I pondered the words.

"If you think so, you're biased." The new chief shook his head, "Gongfang Hall is obsessed with swordsmanship, in addition to his own interests, I'm afraid there are other reasons. ”

"Please advise the Lord."

"The shogun is the pillar of the samurai family in the world, and he has the name of righteousness, once he is controlled by others, in addition to indulging in interests, can he still focus on political affairs? …… Compared to fine wine, women, waka songs, and calligraphy and painting, it's acceptable to indulge in swordsmanship. Nobunaga analyzed.

"The Lord is wise." I said sincerely.

Compared to him, I still don't have enough deep understanding of this era.

However, it quickly occurred to me that he could understand this, did he get a revelation from Spo Yiyin? The former guardian of Owari was set up by him, and it seems that he is entertaining himself with calligraphy and painting......

"Haha!" Nobunaga laughed twice, "Keijiro...... Do you know what I admire most about you? ”

"Please make it clear." I owe it.

"It's your ability to judge the situation." Nobunaga looked at me.

"This ...... The lord praised it! "I'm sweating profusely. Although I do understand the course of history, I rarely show it, let alone take the initiative to promote it.

I don't know if he said this, but he was talking about my defection to the Oda family, or his performance before the war? Or did he simply think that the reason why I was so obedient this time was that I didn't feel that I had enough strength to read out?

If it's the third one, then I'm in a very bad situation. This means that although Nobunaga has forgiven me, he will still be suspicious of me, and will only try to suppress me in the future, and will not trust me again.

"When the lord says this, his subordinates are really frightened!" Thinking of this possibility, I hurriedly continued.

"So, let me ask you - apart from Matsunaga Shu and the Gongfang Palace, who do you think will control Kinai?" He asked solemnly.

"His Majesty felt that after the decline of the Miyoshi family, the only ones who had the right time and corresponding strength to control Kinai were the Oda family and the Asakura family...... However, the number of masters of the Asakura family is insufficient, so in the end, it will only be you, the lord, who can master the Kinai! I replied seriously.

"Oh, do you think so?" Nobunaga laughed.

"Your Majesty does think so......," I bowed down, "It is precisely because I understand the ambition and strength of the lord that my lord believes that the lord will not mind, and this time he acted a little bit more than Meng Lang, so that it aroused the suspicion of His Royal Highness Shibata and His Royal Highness Sakuma...... In short, everything was a mistake on the part of his subordinates. ”

"I've said I've forgiven you!" Nobunaga waved his hand, "I'm asking you about business...... Do you think that the family should intervene in Kinai? ”

"Yes, it should be involved, but not now...... If you want to gain a foothold in Kinai, you should have enough strength yourself. When the main family can capture Mino, they will almost be able to intervene in Kinai in a big way. I replied.

"Hmm...... It is very rare for you to have such a cognition, and it coincides with the results of the assessment at home. Nobunaga nodded.

"It's already been discussed at home?" I asked, surprised. The Oda family has been paying attention to Kinai for so long, but I don't know about it.

"Otherwise, how could I send you to support Yamato?" Nobunaga glanced at me, "Don't always focus on managing the territory!" Although you don't need to be stationed in Komaki Mountain, you should also go to the assessment from time to time, and report the situation around the territory to your family! At this point, Katsuzaburo and Monkey do a better job than you! ”

"Yes. Your Majesty knows. Hearing him mention Kinoshita Hideyoshi, I couldn't help but raise my attention.

"Then that's it! For these two days I will stay in your city to rest. He stood up and twisted his neck casually.

"It is an honor for your subordinates to be able to receive your lord." I replied.

"By the way, your sister-in-law is also called Keijiro, right? He and I were very close to each other. In the future, I will definitely participate in the Yuan costume and marriage. Before stepping off the lookout, he said suddenly.
