In the castle lord's mansion of Bigo Kunichi Chengshan Castle, facing the reward of Masayo, he was naturally grateful for his father's blessing, but Yoshihiro Kanri still had his own words to say: "My lord, I still have a request." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? Zhengliang immediately felt a little surprised and asked.

After receiving permission from Masahiro, Yoshihiro Kanri did not pay attention to his father Kosuke's eye warning, but sincerely pleaded, "My lord, I would like to ask you to teach me marksmanship, and the adults in the family say that your marksmanship is the best in the world, so I want to ...... I want to learn your marksmanship, and one day I can be as good as you. ”

Zhengliang laughed when he heard this, and said: "How dare you say that, the so-called heaven outside the sky, there are people outside the world, don't be complacent." ”

Kosuke couldn't stand it anymore at this time, so he immediately stepped forward and scolded his son Yoshihiro Kanri and said, "Rude, the lord is busy with daily affairs, where can I have time to guide you in marksmanship?" ”

Yoshihiro Kanri didn't pay attention to his father Yukisuke's scolding, but after tilting his head and thinking for a while, he said, "My lord, I really want to learn your marksmanship and become the number one warrior of my Luo family, so I beg you to agree." ”

Masato smiled and said: "Hehe, I have been in the city for the past few days, you can come to me, and if I have time, I will teach you marksmanship, I hope you will not live up to my marksmanship and become an upright and loyal samurai in the future." ”

When Yoshihiro Kanri heard what Masara said, he was immediately overjoyed, knelt down and said, "Lord Lord, I'm still young and can't become a samurai yet, but after I serve the Yuanfu." Be sure to be out of office. Become your samurai. I also ask my lord to allow me to become your little surname. ”

Masarashi nodded, turned his head to look at the fourth son Yoshinomaru (that is, Sagara Masanori) in his arms, and said, "Okay." ”

Kosuke was very happy to see that the lord was willing to agree to accept his son Yoshihiro Kanri as a samurai. Later, Masato rewarded the maid who had bravely spoken out to protect his son, and rewarded the maid with some coins and food, so that she could send these rewards home. And Kosuke also greeted all the retainers behind Masato one by one.

After that, Kosuke followed Masara to the living room of the castle lord's mansion.

"Tell me, what are you doing here this time?" Kosuke is not only the lord of Gakufu Castle, but also a retainer of the Intelligence Pavilion. Under normal circumstances, he would not leave Xuefu City casually, but this time he took the opportunity to escort Zhengliang's family to come to Beihou Kingdom, so naturally he had something important to report to Zhengliang in person.

"My lord, a few days ago, Togawa Hideyasu, an important minister of the Bizen Kuniyu Taki family, personally sent this letter to the main family, and this person did not say much, but emphasized that the letter was written by his family governor, the Ukita Naoya, and I hope that the lord can check it out for himself." Faced with Zhengliang's inquiry. Kosuke reported immediately. At the same time, he took out a secret letter from his arms and sent it to Masaliang.

"Oh?" Zhengliang immediately took the secret letter, opened it and looked at it.

After reading MeSign. Masara said with a smile: "It seems that this Uta Xi family governor is really interesting!" ”

After a slight pause, Masara continued, "Is there anything else besides this? ”

"My lord, this is the latest information sent back by the third expedition team of this family in the Ezo area, Luo clan Masamune and others have found the ethnic group pointed out by the lord in the Ezo area, and when they sent this report, they are still discussing with the local ethnic group." Kosuke once again took out a piece of information and sent it to Masayo, and at the same time reported it.

Unlike the previous secret letters, since it was designated that it could only be opened and viewed by the family governor Masahiro, fortunately he naturally couldn't open it and read it, and for the general information transmitted back from various places, such as the current information of Ezo, Yusuke, as the main retainer of the Intelligence Pavilion, could naturally check it in advance.

"Hmmm! Good! Good! Masarashi took the information, read it, listened to Kosuke's report, and nodded, and finally decided, "Tomorrow, you come here again, I will write a letter tonight to send to a friend of mine near Ezo, presumably with his help, things will go more smoothly with Masamune, Tadakatsu and others in the Ezo area." ”

"Yes!" Although he didn't know who the friend the lord was talking about, he still immediately received the order.

"What else?" After putting down Ezo's information, Masaro continued to ask.

"There's one more important thing."

"Oh?" Hearing Kosuke say this, Masato immediately felt strange, since it was a more important matter, it should have been reported to him at the beginning, why did he wait until now?

And just as Masato was strange, at this time, Kosuke's expression looked a little strange, and he finally took out a piece of information and sent it to Masato and said:

"My lord, this is the information sent back urgently by the Kizo Shigetada, who is lurking in the Oda family."

"Oh? Could it be that the Oda family has made a new move? It can't be that the Oda family plans to unite the Matsudaira family to fight the Toe Imagawa family, right? Masarashi asked as he took the information.

"Definitely! The lord only needs to look at the report of the wooden building to know what is going on. Kosuke shook his head and said.

Masarashi didn't bother to ask anymore when he heard this, judging from Kosuke's appearance in the face of his inquiry at this time, it must not be an urgent matter, so Masarashi slowly opened the information and looked at the content on it.

It's just that when he started to read, as he read deeper, the expression on his face gradually changed from the original relaxed to strict, and then he was dumbfounded.

"Congratulations!" When he saw Masarashi put down the information, Kosuke immediately congratulated.

"This?" For a while, Masato really didn't know what to say. In the information, it was naturally the news that Oda Nobunaga planned to marry his sister, Oda City, who was later called the 'first beauty of the Warring States', to the Luo family, so as to marry and form an alliance with the Luo family.

It would have been normal if Oda Nobunaga was planning to marry Oda to his son, but now from Kizo Shigetada's information, Masarashi saw that Oda Nobunaga was preparing to marry his sister to Masara.

"What's going on?" After reading the information, Zhengliang couldn't help but complain in his heart.

However, after being a little surprised, he quickly looked at the matter from the perspective of a Sengoku daimyo. Putting aside the personal perspective of Masarashi and Oda City, on the side of the Oda family, Oda Nobunaga suddenly remembered the alliance with the main family, why on earth?

You know, the territories of the two families are too far apart, so even if they are allied with each other now, the help for the two is limited, right?

"Could it be that in the previous cooperation process of assisting Saito Michizo to return to Mino Province, the Oda family felt the strength of the Oda family?"

Masara couldn't help but be puzzled, and then he quickly recalled the information in Kizo Shigetada, but it was important to mention that Oda Nobunaga suddenly gathered all the retainers to decide to form an alliance with the Luo family after learning the news that the Luo family had entered Bigo Province. When he thought of this, Masarashi immediately understood why Oda Nobunaga was like this.

Obviously, Oda Nobunaga saw the Luo family's ambition to be interested in the world, and for this reason, Masato couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

"It's really the wisdom of people who go to Mo to underestimate the world!"

You must know that although Zhengliang has decided to go to Luo, and is expanding the way of Shangluo, in order to attract the attention of the people of the world, especially to avoid causing obstruction by many forces along the way of Shangluo (with the plan that Zhengliang previously formulated that he must control all the territories of the forces along the way of Shangluo, it is absolutely not to make the forces along the way nominally surrender, but in fact they have the strength to threaten the safety of the Luo family's Shangluo Road at any time, so the Luo family's Shangluo can only collide with the forces along the way), Therefore, Zhengliang not only did not announce Shangluo in a loud manner, but also adopted a slow Shangluo method of step-by-step and gradual digestion.

And now, Masayo's way of going to Luo must have been seen by Oda Nobunaga. (To be continued......)
