Chapter 62: The Journey of Building Momentum (Part II)

His Royal Highness Renmu said seriously...... It is true that His Royal Highness Nishiki can understand His Royal Highness's intentions, but the situation in Iga is complicated, and with his ability, it may be difficult to succeed for a while. Moreover, it is necessary to obtain the consent of His Highness Danzheng first. I pondered, my fingers tapping unconsciously on the deck.

"As long as His Highness Kira has a heart. It's quite tough under it, and I've been waiting for ten years, and it's not a problem to wait for another two or three years. "Niki Yoshimasa.

"So, can His Highness Nishiki tell us about the situation in Iga?" Seriously, since Iga is so small and rather mysterious, I don't really know much about it except for a few novelists.

"At the time of his departure from Iga, the country was controlled by twelve wealthy clans. They are known as the Iga Twelve, led by the three families of Hattori, Hyakchi, and Fujibayashi. All three of them are good at ninjutsu and are known as the three upper ninja families in Iga. However, in the decision of specific affairs, the three have no special power, and the position of the twelve is equal. Thinking of that past, Renki Yoshimasa was very embarrassed.

It's true that I've been a guardian of Iga for many years, and I really haven't heard of this before.

"I seem to have heard that there are many outstanding ninjas in Iga Country?" I asked with interest.

"That's right." Yoshimasa Nishiki nodded, "Most of the land in Iga Province is sandy, and it is difficult to store water, so it is difficult to grow rice...... It was precisely because of Iga's barrenness that after leaving Omi's help, he was unable to manage his forces in the future. ”

Listening to his words, my heart moved: "This time Master Zhou Song followed, it seems that there are people from the Hattori family?" Also employed? ”

"I've been hired by the Princess's Palace, and I've been for several years. Counting, there is also a little affection below. This trip through Iga Province did rely on the help of the Hattori family. However, after this trip, the Hattori family will part ways. ”

"So, can His Highness Renmu introduce him on his behalf? I hope to continue to hire Hattori, and there is no problem with funding. I hurriedly asked.

"Since His Royal Highness Kira is interested, he should serve below." Yoshimasa Hitoki readily agreed.

"Then please. How about discussing specific matters with His Highness Renmu another day? ”

"Everything is ordered," seeing that I had the intention of sending off guests, Yoshimasa Hitoki took the initiative to resign, "so as not to disturb His Highness Kira's rest." ”

"Your Highness Renmu, please." I nodded and sent him out of the cabin.

I have a good impression of this Iga guardian. He is very good at observing words and feelings, although he is a guardian, he does not have any shelf. Maybe it's a long-term career under the fence that has made him realistic.

In this era, let alone guarding, even the general Yoshiki himself is almost under the door of the Miyoshi family. Although he has a lofty status and holds the name of righteousness in the world, he suffers from little strength, just like the mud bodhisattva who is worshiped and entrusts faith in the temple.

Now this mud bodhisattva has been shattered, and if another one is not erected, the temple of the Miyoshi family will almost go out of business. And for the Oda family, with this reserve mud bodhisattva, there is a lot of capital to build a new temple.

In history, the title of the "controversial general" Ashikaga Yoshiei was very problematic, and it took two years to complete the procedures for succession. Now that Nobunaga supports Zhou Song, it is even less convincing for the Miyoshi family to support him, and I am afraid that it is impossible to officially get the announcement of the imperial court's general Zhengyi.

Although in terms of eldest and youngest and grandchildren, the title of Juekei's succession is greater than that of Zhou Song, but the relationship between Jueqing and Wakasa Takeda and Echizen Asakura is very close, Takeda Yoshitomi's main room is the younger sister of Kakukei's mother, and the current main room of Asakura Yoshikei is the sister of Juekei's mother, Keijuin, both of whom have received the Ashikaga family's "righteousness" character, and the Asakura family is currently stronger than the Oda family.

The mud bodhisattvas that can be obtained are good bodhisattvas, and the mud bodhisattvas that can come in handy are good bodhisattvas - and more importantly, this mud bodhisattva is what I found.

Thinking about it this way, it is really disrespectful to the master I am hospitalizing, but this is a troubled time. And from Zhou Song's point of view, being able to become a shogun is definitely a happy thing......

The next time I returned to the territory, I respectfully gave up the main castle tower of Mie Castle and welcomed Zhou Song in, and all the people who accompanied me, except for more than ten people from the Ishiya Yorichen family and the Hattori family, were also placed on the lower level of the main castle tower. Then, I instructed Hidekei, who was in charge of the castle, to entertain everyone well, and I went to Ishiya Yorichen to discuss the matter of informing Nobunaga.

"It's not easy to come to me, and I'm going to Xiaomu Mountain again, it's really troublesome for my brother-in-law. But this matter can only be explained clearly from the position of the righteous brother, although Master Zhou Song and you, although I picked it up, it is not convenient for me to live here. "I've seen Ishiya Yorichen's main room, Nana's half-sister, and his eldest son, Ishiya Kabei, I said a little apologetically.

"It doesn't matter. But, to tell you privately, I wish I could stay with you. First, I can get along with you and my wife for a long time, and second, I don't get along well with Oda Danmasa. Ishiya Raichen said.

"This should be fine." I thought about it.

"Then I'll ask in private," Although no outsiders were present, Ishiya Yoshichen still lowered his voice, "Did you expect today?" ”

"Without the prestige of the Miyoshi repair doctor to suppress the situation, and the ambitious Matsunaga to stir up the situation, the conflict between the Gongfang Hall and the Miyoshi family is almost inevitable," I sighed sincerely, "I just guessed that there might be a fight and wanted to protect your family, but I didn't expect it to be so fierce, and the Gongfang Palace, Keijuin and so many members of the public were killed...... Also, I am really surprised that you brought out these people, especially Master Zhou Song! ”

"Master Zhou Song's matter is an accident. The rest of the adults were willing to serve, so naturally they couldn't refuse. If you can take care of your colleagues, you should take care of them as much as possible...... Didn't cause you any trouble, did you? He asked.

"It's not a problem, maybe it's a chance...... However, in front of His Royal Highness Danzheng, you must put aside me and the rescue of Master Zhou Song, I just heard your news, so I specially went to greet you, that's all! "I solemnly please.

"In that case, what are you doing with all this fanfare?" Ishiya Yoshijin didn't understand.

"This is likely to be the future Gongfang Palace, so it should be more solemn. And seeing this military appearance, I think I will have more confidence in my Oda family, and at the same time leave a deep impression on my Kira family......"
