11 funerals

Today is March 7th, and Oda Nobuhide's funeral was held at Manshoji Temple on Mt. Kigaku, and the founder of Manshoji Temple, Zen Master Okumo, was actually Nobuhide's uncle.

Today's Wansong Temple, up and down a total of 360 monks, under the leadership of the Dayun Zen Master, chanting for the letter Xiu Chaodu.

The neat and low chanting sound makes the atmosphere of the temple more solemn.

Below Nobuhide's tablet, first of all, his wives and concubines and children, among them, Nobuhide's main room, Mrs. Tsuchida, and Nobunaga's main room, Guidie, are the heads. Those children who are less than ten years old, of course, do not know grief, among them, in fact, a six-year-old girl is the head, she is the wildest, and her name is Ah Shi (Ou Yiqi)

But Nobunaga, the consul general, who was supposed to be in the upper seat, did not appear. The officiant of the funeral (provisional) Masahide Hirate, from time to time straightened his back and looked at the entrance.

"Why haven't you come yet?"

"Sure enough, it's Owari Omar, it's not ...... at this time."

The retainers began to get impatient.

"If he doesn't come again, it will be burned by Prince Nobuyuki, and the funeral of the lord must not be delayed, everything must be carried out on time, otherwise he will be laughed at and generous."

Seeing that the time for chanting was coming to an end, Lin Xiuzhen, the old man of the pen family, spoke. He was naturally a supporter of the Nobuyuki faction, and at this moment he was holding a list of incense burning orders, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw Nobunaga's delay.

"If you can get Nobuyuki to officiate at the funeral of the deceased lord...... Presumably, it will have more advantages in the future competition for the governor. Lin Xiuzhen thought so.

Finally, the chanting ended.

"Please burn incense."

A monk said.

"The first one should be Kichigashi Gongzi, but he didn't come, so I had to ask Nobuyuki Gongzi to come out and burn incense first."

Oda Nobuyuki, who was in the seat below, rose in response to the sound and was about to step forward.

"Ah...... Please wait a little longer, he will definitely come. ”

Masahide Hirate explained desperately, but would Oda Nobunaga really come?

Since his disappearance, no one has been able to find him, and even if they have searched through the four prefectures of Owari Shimo, they have not been able to find him, and this matter has become known to everyone.

Just when Zhengxiu was about to give up, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd on the periphery.

"It's coming! It must be the new governor who has arrived. ”

Masahide breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to greet Nobunaga, his face suddenly changed.

Nani!

How so!

Oda Nobunaga's hair was casually tied with a hemp rope, his chest was open to reveal his solid chest, he had many bags tied around his waist, and in his hand he held the four-foot broadsword, the last one Nobuhide had picked up, and swaggered in.

Not only was it a tie Masahide, but everyone present couldn't help but scream.

Oda Nobunaga didn't hear everyone's exclamations, but walked up to Oda Nobuhide's spirit tablet and "slammed" the hilt of the knife on the ground.

"Lin Xiuzhen!"

"Yes!"

"Shibata Katsuie!"

"Yes!"

Whoever is called will surely answer the same way if they are unprepared.

"Go do what you want."

"Yes!"

In this case, the two had to answer "Yes!" But what Nobunaga's purpose was, they couldn't react for a while.

"Oda Nobuyiyo, Oda Nobuyuki, you are all qualified to inherit the Oda family, but if you want to take this position from me, you still have to rely on strength, understand!"

"Yes!"

Oda Nobukiyo was puzzled, but he still responded like Lin Xiuzhen and Shibata Katsuie.

Only Oda Nobuyuki sighed softly.

Nobunaga came to the incense box, paused, and suddenly threw the incense onto the tablet.

The crowd was suffocated.

This...... It's so rough!

Nobunaga ignored the reactions of the crowd and turned to leave, disappearing from the main hall.

Standing outside, Narumasa saw all this, and what Nobunaga said to his retainers and two brothers felt like they were inciting them to rebel.

But it's okay to do this, it's all in one battle, but I don't know, will Oda Nobuyuki and Oda Nobuyiyo jump out to rebel?

Cheng Zheng was thinking about this problem, and suddenly heard a Lori's coquettishness:

"Baga Chengzheng, come here and let me ride a big horse!"

Nani?

Cheng Zheng followed the prestige and saw that it was the six-year-old Ah Shi who pointed at him and gave orders.

"Princess, is this really a big husband?"

"If I want to ride, I have to ride, come here!"

Cheng Zheng suddenly had a black line on his face.

In the corner...... Gui Die covered her mouth and snickered.

"It's messed up, it's messed up."

Tie Masahide sighed.

And the governor of the Oda family, in this way, was rightfully inherited by Oda Nobunaga, the "big fool of Owari".

Contrary to Sasa Narumasa's expectations, Oda Nobuyuki seemed very quiet and quiet, so quiet that Narumasa himself was a little unaccustomed to it.

Could it be that he remembered Oda Nobuyuki's rebellion by mistake?

With such doubts in mind, Sasa Narimasa waited for a messenger from Mino Castle in Nakono Castle.

This knight carried a two-headed corrugated back flag, and brought only one sentence:

"The lord of the country invited Childe to Zhengde Temple for a while."

Sasa Narumasa reacted and understood that it turned out that Saito Michizo invited his son-in-law Nobunaga to Marodokuji Temple for tea.

Zhengdeji Temple...... Zhengdeji Temple......

Cheng Zheng frowned and thought hard, and soon thought of a solution.

A way to get revenge!

At this time, everyone, including Nobunaga and Narumasa, had already started to discuss Michizo's invitation.

Most of the advice was to tell Nobunaga not to go and avoid taking risks, after all, Michizo was a "pit viper", who could guess his thoughts?

At this time, Nobunaga suddenly wanted to know Sasa's opinion, because among this group of people, Narumasa was the only one who was silent.

Nobunaga was taken aback by Narumasa's expression.

From the moment he heard the words "Mino Country Lord", the hatred of Chengzheng was ignited.

Michizo Saito...... It was his father-killing enemy.

He would never forget the bloody sun outside Katsuhata Castle, and he would never forget that the Saito Army cut off his father's head.

He hates.

There was nothing he could do.

He hates.

He survived in secret.

He hates.

He went incognito, became the youngest son of Sasa Morimasa, a small landowner in Owari Province, and changed his face.

The hateful Saito Michizo even married Guidie to Nobunaga......

Thinking of this, the hatred in Chengzheng's heart burned more and more fiercely.

He hates injustice! He hates the sea!

"Cheng Zheng!"

Nobunaga coughed and pulled Narumasa back from his hatred.

After realizing his gaffe, Cheng Zheng didn't give any explanation, and immediately knelt down:

"The lord has already decided to go to Zhengde Temple, why do you still ask me?"

Hearing Cheng Zheng's statement, everyone exclaimed.

When did Nobunaga decide to go to Shotokuji Temple?

A dangerous smile appeared on Oda Nobunaga's handsome face:

"How can you convince me that you're not guessing? If you dare to lie to me......"

There was a terrifying sparkle in his eyes,

"So the name of the Sasa family...... There is no need to pass it on. ”

Nobunaga was very strange about Chengmasa's previous gloomy coldness, and in order to test Chengmasa, he even released cruel words.

This shocked everyone.

What is Chengzheng's answer?

Thinking of this, everyone quieted down and waited for Cheng Zheng's reply.

"If the lord is unwilling to go to the appointment, it is equivalent to tearing up the covenant with the Saito family, and in this case, the lord will never let the messenger return to Mino."

Sasa Narumasa raised his head and met Nobunaga's unpredictable gaze,

"But...... But the lord let this man go, didn't he say...... The lord is also looking forward to the meeting with the pit viper? ”
