"Born as a samurai, you enjoy two privileges given by God, one is to kill the man you want to kill, and the other is to love the woman you want to love!"

Sasa Narimasa stood in the inner courtyard of Nakono Castle, unflinching in the face of Oda Nobunaga's questioning.

Behind Nobunaga was an extremely beautiful girl, and she looked at the undisguised blazing gaze of the young man below her, and she was a little distracted for a while.

It's still the same.

It's still the same as he was back then, even this kind of longing look is the same.

She remembered their reunion on the border a few days ago, and remembered the risky tactics she had taken last night to protect the relationship between the two......

The wedding between Guidie and Nobunaga was three days ago, but on the day of the wedding, Nobunaga himself didn't know where to go.

In desperation, the anxious Hirate Masahide had no choice but to let Nobunaga's younger brother Oda Nobuyuki be Nobunaga's stand-in and complete the wedding in his place.

At first, Guidie thought that the handsome little guy with a beautiful temperament was Nobunaga, but after waiting for two days, there was no one.

Every night, she would subconsciously clench the dagger at her waist.

And so last night, Oda Nobunaga finally returned.

Without waiting for Nobunaga to make a move, Guidie sat up from the tatami mat.

"I want to make a deal with Nobunaga."

Seeing the beautiful and cold Gui Die, Nobunaga's handsome eyebrows raised, and he immediately became interested in this woman, and he also made a big grin to the opposite side of Gui Die, stretched out an index finger and began to pick his nose:

"Say it."

"The marriage between you and me is a matter of government. Governing marriage, I believe Nobunaga also understands it. ”

"Hmmm......"

"In that case...... You and I just need to maintain the relationship between Mino and Owari, you and I, in fact, there is no need to be a real husband and wife! ”

“…… Well? ”

Nobunaga was a little surprised, he couldn't help but round the beautiful eyes that were not inferior to Gui Die, staring at the girl in front of him who looked weak and delicate without blinking, seeing that Gui Die's face was still calm, and the doubts in Nobunaga's heart became more and more intense.

No matter how you look at this woman, she is an untouched place. Female, even know what a "real couple" is?

The marriage of the children of the daimyo has always been a transaction between the daimyos, and Nobunaga understands this, so he refuses to attend the wedding with Guidie, and instead goes to Tsushima to find Miss Azuki of the Ikuqu family, and spends two wonderful days in her arms.

But what does this woman mean, doesn't she understand that she is just a tool?

"And then?"

Nobunaga is unpredictable after all.

"You and I, although we are husband and wife, are both thinking about each other and do not like each other, therefore, I hope that Nobunaga will be a gentleman and not try to get involved with me, you and I will sleep in separate rooms and not sleep together on the same bed. I will follow your wishes and convey the message you want to give to Saito Michizo...... Michizo is a man known as 'Mino の蝮', and he sent me here to naturally want to take your life...... Therefore, Nobunaga Gongzi must not want to see Mino and Owari fighting each other. ”

Hearing this, Oda Nobunaga couldn't help but open his mouth wide, he thought that the other party was just a beautiful thing, but only now did he realize that this woman called Guidie was not only smart, but also bold.

Nobunaga's courage was greatly appreciated, and although the two had never been masked before, Nobunaga realized that he was beginning to like her.

This kind of woman does not let the boldness and momentum of the eyebrows, which is exactly the kind of small. What my sister lacks.

“…… You're right, so be it. ”

Although he wanted to push the beauty in front of him on the spot, Nobunaga still dispelled this idea.

He has different ways of dealing with different people...... For a heroine and stunner like Guidie, he doesn't want to be in a hurry. Ghost.

But what Nobunaga didn't expect was ...... In his life, he has never gotten Guidie's body, let alone her heart.

"That's right...... What's the name of the man you like? ”

Nobunaga had already turned around and walked to the door, but asked abruptly.

In the darkness, Gui Die thought for a moment and replied:

"Akechi Mitsuhide, he's my cousin."

With a "snap", Nobunaga closed the door, listening to his footsteps as he walked away, Gui Die finally breathed a sigh of relief, she took her right hand out of her clothes, and stared at the delicate dagger in her palm a little stunned.

The blade was cold, but the handle was soaked with sweat from her palm, and the battle in just a few dozen breaths almost consumed Gui Die's strength.

That's it...... Guidie slept alone for another night, but unexpectedly, today was the day when Seimasa came to Nakono Castle to see Nobunaga.

Although her heart was surging like angry waves, Guidie's face was surprisingly calm, and she knelt beside Oda Nobunaga, motionless.

Today, it is the day when Narumasa came to Nakono Castle to report to Nobunaga and officially became Nobunaga's surname.

In Owari, the poverty of the Sasa clan of Hira Castle was as famous as their loyalty, and although his father was the lord of Hira Castle, Sasa Narumasa still wore very tattered clothes, for the simple reason that he did not have the money to buy new clothes.

But the knife that Cheng Zheng carried on his waist was a good knife.

If you look closely, you can also find a small inscription carved on the swallow mouth, which is とき (Toki).

It was the legacy left to Chengzheng by his deceased father, Toki Yoriyi.

When Narimasa came to the city, Nobunaga had just returned from a horse, so Nobunaga stared at Narumasa up and down while eating breakfast.

According to the rules, Seimasa should untie his sword, kneel on the ground and shout "Sasa and Saemon Seimasa, participate!" ”

Then Nobunaga gave him a slight boost and said, "Please continue to be loyal to my family in the future."

But wouldn't that be too much for everyone?

Coincidentally, Nobunaga's new wife Gui Butterfly came over.

No－zuo－no－die，Why－you－try？

Narumasa stared intently at Guidie, unabashedly his love and possessiveness, and he didn't even scruple Oda Nobunaga, who was eating next to him, Guidie's husband.

"Yaga!"

Nobunaga noticed that his titular wife was being stared at by others, and immediately slapped his chopsticks on the plate.

"Sasa Chengzheng, you are so bold!"

"Born as a samurai, you enjoy two privileges given by God, one is to kill the man you want to kill, and the other is to love the woman you want to love!"

So there was such an answer.

Hearing the absurd words of Seimasa, Nobunaga seemed to be interested.

Oda Nobunaga's handsome face did not change a trace of expression, just as Narumasa stared directly at Guidie, he also stared directly at Narumasa.

"Boldly Zuo Cheng Zheng! How can it be so rude! ”

Maeda Inu Chiyo finally couldn't stand it anymore, and he fulfilled his duty as a small surname to be loyal to the lord and scolded him.

Unexpectedly, Chengzheng just raised his eyes and glanced at him, not taking him to heart at all.

Maeda Inu Chiyo was stunned, and his anger rose rapidly...... He couldn't help but think of the insult he had insulted him a few days ago in the Wasteland City. However...... Although he is the son of the city lord of Wasteland City, he was also severely reprimanded by his father for punching Chengzheng, and today he can't do it in front of the young master.

Maeda Inu Chiyo felt very depressed and hurtful.

Sasa Narumasa smiled and said:

"I heard that the young lord is also a famous person who is a stranger in the country of Owari, in that case, can't you accept a retainer who is also a stranger?"

The atmosphere on the field eased a little because of this joke, Oda Nobunaga snorted coldly, and it was regarded as a tacit acquiescence to Chengzheng's words, and only then did Chengzheng's rude act of looking directly at Gui Die, which could be regarded as turning a page.

"In Shimosasa, the son of Sasayama, the lord of Hira Castle, see the young master!"

"Is Sasa a Masa...... I Nobunaga knows. ”

Nobunaga replied, but he didn't take his eyes off Narumasa, feeling that his observation was not enough—the prey in front of him was really interesting.

"If you're a samurai, don't you know the rules of a samurai?"

Nobunaga scolded, speculating about Seimasa's reaction, was it panic? Disdain? Nervously pleading? Explain calmly?

Although Nobunaga was an unruly retainer, he was not necessarily able to accept a retainer who did not obey the law. Moreover, in his opinion, Narumasa is just a fourteen-year-old boy born in the same year as Inuchiyo, and it is obviously impossible to say that he defies the long-standing rules of etiquette.

"The rules are also set by people, obeying the rules is obeying people, and those who are curious do not like to obey others, why do they still have to abide by the rules?"

Cheng Zheng once again regarded himself as a stranger, and made it clear that he didn't want to be well-behaved.

A smile tugged at the corners of Nobunaga's mouth.

Interesting, really interesting!

"Nong, tell me what you think of Zozor."

While thinking about Naimasa's words, Nobunaga ordered Guidie behind him to evaluate Narumasa, and he picked up the chopsticks that he had put down, held the rice bowl, and gulped down the rice and fish fillets.

"Chengzheng Gongzi...... Qi Yu Xuanang, speaking of which is somewhat similar to adults, I don't know when adults are more than ten years old, but they are also as abrupt as Chengzheng. ”

Gui Die is worthy of being the daughter of the pit viper, and she quickly calmed down, not only with a good hand of mud, but also teased Oda Nobunaga by the way.

"Well...... Although he is not afraid of heaven and earth, this guy knows the benefits of women before me! ”

Nobunaga interjected, laughed twice, and as if remembering something, he took out a crumpled ball of paper from a cloth bag around his waist and threw it in front of Guidie.

"Nong, read it."

Gui Die slowly unfolded the paper ball, and her clear voice flowed out like a nightingale singing:

"The dog and Saemon became a politician, the talent is dull, the martial arts are mediocre, only the temperament is loyal, simple and straightforward, and he is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses for the young master, and follow the left and right."

"Is this a man of dull talent? Is this a rustic person? Nobunaga pointed to Narumasa, "Anon helped me write a letter to Sasa Morimasa, telling him that I liked his son very much, but he lied, so he won't give Sasa's family any reward this year. ”

"Yes."

Gui Die quickly cleaned up the leftovers that had been swept away by Nobunaga, and walked away with the small case.

"Ah Dog, go and call Hengxing, I have something to look for him."

"Hay!"

Maeda Inu Chiyo was ordered to leave, and only Oda Nobunaga and Naruma were left in the court.

"Yosa, from now on, you will be my retainer."

"Yes."

"Sa, let's start by helping me lift my shoes."

Well? Shoes?

Isn't that what monkeys do?

“なんですが？ (Transliteration: Ondabaga)

"Hurry up! Hengxing is coming soon! ”

Nobunaga took out the folding fan on his waist and hit Narumasa in the face with a "snap".
