Chapter 140: Shocking Change
If Yoshiin is a confident Iga guardian, then she should shout for her to come and see me.
But he was an empty shell, and he had no choice but to follow him to meet people.
Iga Mikami Shinobi. Yuno Hattori is the chief of the body, North Iga Fujibayashi Masahau, and South Iga Hyakuchi Santai.
Yoshiyin and his entourage entered the country from Kita-Iga and encountered the border guarded by the Fujibayashi family.
The small country of Iga, with no more than four counties, is placed in the later generations as the boundary of four larger townships. Outside the mountains and forests, but there is a different world inside.
The small basin is divided into more than 60 villages by mountains and hills. The population of each village is no more than 1,000, the number of soldiers is no more than 100, and they have to form alliances and fight with each other, which is really a miniature warring state.
The Fujibayashi family has its roots in Toda Township, and is the head of dozens of villages in Kita-Iga. Yiyin followed the vine forest sisters to the place before it was dark.
There is a cottage in a higher hill in the countryside, which seems to be more shabby than Yiyin's guardian mansion in Xi Village.
Before it could get closer, the vine starling had already lifted something. With a few waves, he explained to Yiyin.
"There are many secret sentinels in Iga, and I ask you not to act without permission, so as not to cause a misunderstanding."
Yoshiin nodded indifferently, all he could think about was how to convince Fujibayashi Masahō.
Entering the Fujilin Mansion, there were already waiters on the ground to greet them.
"Greetings to the two young ladies, the Governor is waiting for you and your guests."
Fujibayashi starling turned back to Yoshiin and made a gesture of invitation, and Fujibayashi shrugged his shoulders and crossed his arms against the wall.
Yiyin glanced at Niko Katsuhisa and saw her nodding. Several men left their horses at the door and walked in together.
Left and right turned to the room, there was no one on the road, only the footsteps of people echoed in the corridor.
Fujibayashi starling opened the paper door and bowed his head. Yiyin walked in with his head held high, and it was time to see the difference.
There was only one candle lit in the room, and it was staggered by the wind that opened the door. There was a middle-aged woman sitting in the room, the kind that looked ordinary and made people forget it.
His face flickered in the candlelight, his eyes were indifferent, and there was a hint of an inexplicable smile at the corner of his mouth.
After the two women of the vine forest and Yiyin and the others had sat down, the woman bowed and spoke.
"Fujibayashi Masaho has seen Iga guarding Spo Gozen, and Gozen is fine."
Yiyin glanced at her on the ground and said.
"You know me?"
Fujibayashi Masaho sat up and said with a smile.
"The Imperial Court laughed, what kind of business do the Iga people do, if they can't figure out what is related to themselves, won't they die without a place to be buried."
Yiyin glanced at the Fujilin sisters.
"On the way, they said they didn't know."
"My two daughters are training at the border, and they really don't know the news."
Yiyin nodded and said.
"So, you already know what I'm here for?"
"Yes."
"So what do you think?"
"I think if Gozen doesn't give up his plan to take Iga, I'll be in danger of losing my life."
Fujilin Zhengbao's voice did not fall, and the Ji behind Yiyin drew his sword and stood up, all vigilant.
Whether it is this mansion or the Fujibayashi Masaho in front of them, it is too weird, so they have to be wary.
Fujibayashi Masaho is one of the three ninjas of Iga, and she is also a strong person among the ninjas who are good at assassination, and now she spits out murderous intent that makes people's hearts furious.
Yiyin's face was as usual, and the last thing he was afraid of was to face to face. If it is above the battle array, he is also afraid of bows and arrows.
This person's slashing of people opened the killing mode in a flash, whether you are forbearant or light, it is the same for him.
But outsiders don't know this.
The few Ji samurai who had fought with him were also considered to know the Lord, and the others, whether it was the Nizi Yamanaka or the Fujilin sisters, all looked up to this man who was not afraid of danger.
Fujibayashi Masaho on the opposite side was also silent and said.
"The samurai hired us for nothing more than assassination and intelligence. In the past few years, there have been few things that have been able to hide from my Iga.
The shogunate has humiliated my Iga people for so many years. Now that I can't protect myself, it's ridiculous to think that I want to die.
A few days ago, I had already met with the three princes of Hyakuchi and denounced the hypocrisy of the shogunate. In this war, the Iga people sided with Miyoshi. ”
Yiyin's heart was shocked, and his face couldn't hide it.
He had a good discussion with everyone in Kyoto. But no one expected that the resentment of the Iga people would be so heavy, and they already had plans to kill Iga.
Think about it too. I have suffered for so many years and suffered for so many years. If you want to lose it, you can use it if you want. Even if it's a night pot, it has the heart to drown.
Akechi Mitsuhide and Hosokawa Fujitaka think too beautifully. They thought from the perspective of a high-ranking samurai, thinking that a small gift would make the Iga people grateful to Dade.
It's unpredictable. No one in this world understands better than Yiyin how terrible it is for the people at the bottom to be oppressed for many years and produce the power to tear everything apart.
There is a good saying, dare to call the sun and the moon to change the sky.
I've been cheated again, and Yiyin can't help but wail in his heart.
"So you're going to kill me?"
"It depends on what Spo Michizen means."
Yiyin looked at her in surprise, as if Fujibayashi Masaho did not agree with the plan of the third wife of Hyakuri.
"Please."
"One way, Si Po Yu turned back, and I asked my two daughters to send you back to the border of the mountain city."
Yiyin shook his head.
This has been blown out, and Ashikaga Yoshiki has pressed the treasure on me. I went back and said that Iga was going to help Miyoshi fight the shogunate, so let's die.
The shogunate had to collapse instantly.
Although he has been poor and white in the past few years, he has some friends after all. Mibuchi Haruhin treats him like a nephew, Hosokawa Fujitaka treats him as a friend, Ashikaga Yoshiteru can be regarded as looking up to him, and Fujido Otani and his family members are all in Omi.
These people want to survive in the near future, let him drop the chain at this time, and he will not either.
It's just not up, since it has been put on the battlefield, then you have to make it clear and have a result.
Although he has always claimed to be an egoist, he really wants to tear up the face given by others and run away, and he is looked down upon by people pointing at his backbone, and his psychological tolerance is still a little worse.
To say it openly is hypocrisy.
From the beginning of the mixed meal, to now being looked up to. There is no obstacle in entering and exiting, the mountain calls in front of the palace, and the face is very cool.
There is a way to go, who wants to go back and continue to be ignored. Wait until the mountains and rivers are exhausted, and it will not be too late to spare your life at that time.
"The second way is not easy to follow."
"Please advise."
Fujibayashi Masaho looked at Yiyin and said slowly.
"Starling, apricot, you go out."
Yiyin understands, and he is not afraid of heads-up, nor is he afraid of long-range group fights.
"You all go out."
Looking at the Ji behind him, he said in an irrefutable tone.
Both sides were hostile, but they did not dare to go against the will of the head of the family and withdrew.
"Okay, can you say it now?"
Yiyin looked at Fujibayashi Zhengbao, only to see her smile, and suddenly felt much more beautiful. The candlelight flickered, and he almost screamed.
The face in front of him changed, and it became a peach-eyed Nanban face.
"Fruitheart? It's you? ”
"Tut-tut, has Xiao Langjun missed me lately?"
Yiyin's heart was turbulent.
"Where's Masaho Fujibayashi?"
"I killed."
"Why?"
"The third wife of Baidi gave the money."
Yiyin's heart is open.
As it turned out, Iga was besieged in the mountains by the shogunate, and the Hattori family broke away from Iga.
And the three Taifu of Hyakchi want to take advantage of this melee to let Iga kill go abroad.
Fujibayashi Masaho must have been against her, so he was assassinated.
So, there are not many people in the Fujilin Mansion. That's why the Fujilin sisters were sent to the border for training. This is all for fear that Guoxin's identity will be seen through.
"Fruitheart, help me."
Now that the situation in Iga has been controlled by the three sons of Hyakchi, Yoshigin's guardian position is useless, and the only thing that can help him is the fruit heart that pretends to be Fujibayashi Masahō.
"The third wife of Baidi is my old acquaintance, and she has given a lot of money."
Guoxin's peach blossom eyes smiled weirdly, making Yiyin feel déjà vu and feel a pain in his kidneys.
"How about the evening? Now it's full of people outside, and it's inconvenient. ”
"Okay."
