Vested interests don't like spoilers, whether it's the shogunate of Kyoto or the guardian of Owari.

On the castle tower of Kiyosu Castle, Oda Nobunaga looks to the north. The beautiful facial features have a hint of laziness, and the eyes are full of brilliant wildfire. The summer harvest has begun, and after its completion, the long-awaited Northern Expedition will begin.

These days, the four prefectures of Owari are in turmoil, and because Oda Nobunaga was appointed guardian by the shogunate, the governor of the Oda family of Kamiowari Oda Nobuyan was panicked.

Many samurai families in Shimo-Owari persuaded through various channels, coercion, and inducement, and many Kami-Owari samurai were moved.

Everyone is a relative, so why bother to break the bloodstream. Once the balance of strength is tilted greatly, the real warriors will not hesitate to abandon the lord and throw themselves into the arms of the new monarch.

At this time, only Iwakura Castle, the place where the Kami-Oda family started, was still under the full control of Oda Shinyasu. As for whether the rest of the world would continue to be submissive, she couldn't believe it, and she couldn't believe it.

Oda Nobunaga has savored so many days with the mentality of a cat and a mouse, and now he is only waiting for the summer harvest to send troops and take the four counties of Kamiowari in one go.

The unification of Owari Province is close at hand, but in the bottom of her heart, there is a trace of unease.

The delicate body bent forward and supported the railing with her hands, and Niwa Nagahide behind him was waiting for the lord's question.

"So, the war in Omi Province has stopped?"

"Yes, it stopped before the summer harvest. After the battle of Norada, the Emperor became famous, and he spread far and wide. ”

Oda Nobunaga looked back at his partner, whom he had grown up with, and remained silent.

"Yoshigin-kun has made great contributions to the shogunate, and he has been rewarded a lot."

Niwa Nagahide couldn't figure out what the lord meant, and she never wanted to mess with the matter of Spo Yoshigin. Yoshigin-shiba and Oda Nobunaga have a skin-to-skin relationship, which is a secret that everyone in Owari Province knows.

His Royal Highness was still thinking about the golden house and hiding Jiaojiao, but Spo Yiyin had to swear ruthlessly to escape. This kind of practice of taking advantage of people's danger has made the Ji warriors at home have a lot of gossip after dinner.

Now that Si Bo Yiyin has been in full swing in recent years, what is the idea in the heart of the lord. Niwa Nagahide had no bottom, and he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he thought about it.

"The reward is not yet known, but there is news that the voluntary manor of the Inugami County who followed the Spo Emperor to fight has sent in and dedicated the twelve families with a total of 10,000 stone territories to the Spo Emperor."

Oda Nobunaga's pupils, who were looking at the scenery with his back to Niwa Nagahide, shrank suddenly, and his focus was no longer on the distant scenery.

"That's it, it's amazing. I thought he was extraordinary at the beginning, but now it looks like he may be a better character than me. You say yes, Mi Wu Niang. ”

Niwa Nagahide secretly complained that he was going to cry when he was asked.

The last time someone from the shogunate announced the appointment of the guardian officer, Niwa Nagahide noticed that Nobunaga's mood was not right. At this point, she was even more sure that Spo Yiyin was jealous of the lord.

has followed Oda Nobunaga since he was a child, and he is still confident in how generous his Royal Highness is.

But Spo Yoshiin is none other than the son-in-law of the Owari Province guardian Spo family, the nominal real master of Owari Province.

Although the Sibo clan has been wiped out, theoretically the man cannot inherit the martial arts lineage. But there are exceptions to everything, and Spo Yoshiyin is so good, and now he has made great contributions to the shogunate in recent years. Who knows if it will be one day.

The roots of the Oda family are in Owari Province, and Oda Nobunaga's ambitions are inseparable from Owari Province. How can we tolerate the slightest possibility of such an important interest?

Niwa Nagahide looked at Nobunaga's back and thought to himself, His Highness may be regretting letting Spo Yoshiyin go to Beijing at this time.

It's really enjoyable to return to the guardian generation with empty gloves, but the Spo family, which is already dead and cold, has signs of a comeback, which makes Nobunaga even more vigilant.

If Spo Yoshiin had been serving under the Oda family, his power would be controlled by the Oda family, and Nobunaga would naturally not be afraid.

But he has already jumped out of Nobunaga's control to nearly a few times, and it has only been half a year since he laid a great reputation and the territory of Wanshi.

Let him return to Owari with these strong qualifications to develop for ten years, can Owari Province still belong to the Oda family like it does now? Nobunaga wasn't sure, and he didn't want to gamble.

"Since Yoshigin-kun is appreciated by the shogunate, don't come back for the time being. Did Hideyoshi come back? ”

Niwa Nagahide was stunned for a moment, and then realized that His Highness was referring to the petite Ji samurai who had been sent to take care of him and donate money to buy iron cannons.

"Kinoshita Hideyoshi saw that the price of iron cannons was high in Yamashiro Kuni, so he went to Sakai Port to find a cheap source of goods, and after hearing the news, he should be back to Kyoto soon."

Oda Nobunaga nodded.

"This monkey still has a brain. Summoned to her, and asked her to inform Yoshigin-kun to be stationed in Kyoto and take charge of my family's negotiations with the shogunate. ”

"Hey."

Niwa Nagahide was ordered to fall on the ground. I was surprised that His Highness's jealousy of Sipo Yoshiyin was so deep that he even had to give orders through other Ji warriors, instead of directly ordering.

It can be seen that in her heart, the Sibo family is no longer in the trusted group of direct ministers, and it is as secretive as ever.

Recalling that there were no names of the Spo family and the Maeda family in this Northern Expedition mobilization, it can be seen that His Royal Highness had already made plans. Niwa Nagahide didn't dare to think about it anymore and withdrew.

Owaraki Village, Spo Mansion.

The main seat in the chamber was empty, and Maeda Toshihisa and Takada Yono sat opposite each other, and Yono sat with Yukino bowing down.

In the past six months, Maeda Toshihisa and Takada Yono have worked closely together, although the two are much older than each other, but their attitudes have become very close.

Maeda Toshihisa trained Ashigaru at home, and also supported the progress of Spo Ashigaru's law, and Ashigaru married husbands one after another, sending a large number of male laborers to the military compound in Keimura.

Yono traveled to Mino, Mikawa, and Ise as far as Imagawakan in Suruga Province, avoiding the sight of the Owari Oda family and wandering along the Tokaido trade route.

Although the sugar production is still small and she doesn't make much money, she has gone through ups and downs, and she is no longer the ignorant girl who was embarrassed in front of Yiyin before.

There is no shortage of hundreds of thousands of dollars in his hands, he has seen a bad party, fought a profiteer, and met a local martial artist who has taken advantage of the tricks, and this temperament is becoming more and more noble.

As the saying goes, money is strong and courageous, and money can make ghosts grind. This recipe for white sugar is like a money printing machine, as long as it is not peeped at by nobles, Yang Nai can also be regarded as a unique wealthy merchant in Tokaido.

After the summer harvest, Oda Nobunaga was going to take the Northern Expedition to collect the four prefectures of Kamiowari, and she hurried back to let the Spo family get a piece of the pie.

Although Maeda Toshihisa is a good housekeeper, she is a blacklisted rebellious person with Nobunaga, and when she encounters something on the scene, she still needs Takada Yono to come forward.

But by this time, the Spo family had not yet received the Oda family's conscription order. What's even more strange is that the Maeda family didn't receive it either.

"Lord Riku, is it really not our share this time?"

"I've gone home and asked my mother, not only us, but also the Maeda family. Because of this, my mother was still a little angry with me. ”

The relationship between the two is good, and the title is closer. They were all full of sadness, but Xue Nai still sat upright on the side, looking indifferent.

"This... Has Lord Riku ever found out why? ”

"Maybe the Lord is too capable."

Lijiu couldn't help but smile bitterly, Spo Yiyin was too fierce. He relied on the three thousand stones of the Spo family to practice Ashigaru, and Yang Nai provided money and food later, so he prepared a hundred Spo Ashigaru.

Just decided to show his face for the lord in the Northern Expedition, who knew that the lord would play bigger on himself, and he turned the river and the sea in the river and laid down the territory of Wanshi.

This young man is really amazing, I don't know if the benefits have been successful. The more dazzling the Lord's performance, the more Ji samurai will be entangled in the future. If that stupid girl doesn't start early, she will be hanging in the future.

Yang Nai was still distressed in front of him, but he didn't know that the other side of Rijiu's thoughts had been crooked out of the sky.
