The full moon rises in the east, prosperous and splendid.

Isolated overseas, the farthest human state from the Tuni continent, the main island of the four islands of Himaru, and the emperor, the nominal supreme leader of the country, who ruled the arch of the arch, lived in the eastern capital of Heian Castle, which was only 10 miles away, and was known as the Momoto Castle Shogun's Mansion in Xijing.

Tokugawa Heiji, the head of the Himaru samurai clan and the true leader of the country's theoretical real power, Tokugawa Heiji, stood in the dark attic of the main hall without a single light.

Looking at the great palace where his father, Tokugawa Ieyasu, the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate, lived after his abdication, the lights were brightly lit and the crowds were buzzing, and his face showed a depressed but somewhat happy expression.

After a long time, he muttered, "Momogoro, my father's hundred-year-old plan must have been very frustrated if the Nanyang government noticed it."

Do you think that he will attack and occupy the wrong thing next, or will he continue to be his turtle general as always, and continue to wait for the opportunity to wait for the cuckoo to cry?"

The allusion to the so-called turtle shogun and the 'cuckoo cry' comes from a legendary story in the country of Himaru.

Two hundred years ago, the small island country of Hishimaru suddenly emerged, and countless heroes were born in just one generation.

And the most dazzling of them is that he inherited the position of a daimyo in the name of 'fool', but on a rainy night, he personally led a thousand people to defeat the daimyo Imagawa Yoshimoto, who was revered as the 'No. 1 strong bow in Tokaido' by the people of the time.

After that, it swept across the entire Himaru like a comet, and Bubu was all over the world, but when he was about to succeed, he was killed by his henchman and was named "The Sixth Heavenly Demon King" Oda Nobunaga.

He was born in a lowly peasant family, but with the talent and enthusiasm that is rare in the world, he came out of the Oda family, and worked hard until the family was old.

Later, after the death of Nobunaga, he defeated many of his peers, inherited the great cause, and unified Hichimaru.

Although he was too low to establish the shogunate in his name, he found another way to take up the highest official position in the Himaru civil official system, Sekihaku.

Toyotomi Hideyoshi, who is known as 'Sekihaku' by the world.

and Tokugawa Ieyasu, who succeeded in seizing the handle of Hishimaru Kuniga and establishing the new Tokugawa shogunate after Toyotomi's death.

At that time, when Sen no Rikyu, a tea man, was performing a tea ceremony with Oda Nobunaga, he happened to hear the cheerful chirping of cuckoos on the flower trees.

Seeing that Nobunaga had a happy expression, Sen no Rikyu asked on a whim: "Gong seems to like the cuckoo crying, what if you encounter a bird that doesn't cry?"

Nobunaga replied with a smile and comfortably, "Cutting it with a knife will make it feel sorry." ”

Sen no Rikyu trembled and said no more.

Later, when Sen no Rikyu had a tea ceremony with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, he asked the same question, and Hideyoshi replied, "Temptation can make birds cry." ”

Later, when Sen no Rikyu and Tokugawa Ieyasu had a tea ceremony, they also asked this question, and Ieyasu replied, "Wait a long time, and the cuckoo will cry to itself." ”

Because the character traits of these three immortal heroes are all in this question and answer, Tokugawa Ieyasu is nicknamed the turtle general among the people.

But others say that it is just a taboo and ridicule of big things, Tokugawa Heiji, as the son of Ieyasu and a second-generation general, is disobedient and unfilial, and it is a crime of humanity.

However, since ancient times, the royal family has no selfish feelings, and for the sake of national authority, there are countless examples of fathers killing sons, sons killing fathers, or mothers and sons killing each other, and husbands and wives harming each other.

The Himaru shogun said that he was a courtier of the emperor, but in fact he was no different from the king of a country.

In the case that Tokugawa Ieyasu has nominally abdicated, but in fact he only treats his son as a puppet and does not share the power of the military state at all, Heiji just scolded a few words behind his back, which is already considered pure in nature.

As soon as he finished speaking, a thin figure kneeling on one knee appeared behind him, and replied in an ethereal voice: "Your Highness, the wisdom of the hall is like the sea, and I can't guess it.

I only know that tonight's management, Kanto management, East China Sea exploration, West Sea exploration... Together with the ministers of the Imperial Administration, the Left Minister, and the Right Minister in the civil service... All gathered in the Great Palace, there will be major decisions. ”

"Ah, it turns out that all the big names of All Nippon Maru, except for me, the shogun, are now in the Grand Imperial Palace. Tokugawa Heiji smiled and said, "That's right, I'm just a puppet general, and I can't even compare to a big name in terms of real power."

What's more, compared with the leaders, explorers, and ministers, it is necessary not to go. ”

It was hard to answer, so the thin figure just continued to kneel, not saying a word.

After a long time, Tokugawa Ihei continued to look at the Great Imperial Palace with motionless eyes, and said again with a faint mouth: "I heard that the reason for this defeat is that the embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill.

Because Toyotomi split a dark line under the command of the Fog Ape Clan, someone discovered a flaw, and later killed people to make things bigger, and finally made a big mistake, right?"

"Yes. Momogoro replied softly, "That man's name is Hiroshi Sanada."

It is the henchman of His Royal Highness the Fog Ape Ghost of the young master of the Fog Ape Clan, who runs a bar in Bandung, the capital of the Nanyang Xiangyuan Kingdom.

Secretly engaged in the customs shop and gambling business, used to make friends with useful people of all religions.

Because he was too ostentatious, he was targeted by the police station in Bandung and sent an undercover agent to collect criminal evidence.

As a result, he inadvertently recorded a recording of Sanada Hiroshi talking to the Ghost Temple, and was killed by Sanada Hiroshi, who had made up for his death.

Things started to get out of control, and in the end, the misty ape had no choice but to blow up the tavern run by Hiroshi Sanada, and forced Hiroshi Sanada to commit suicide by disembowelment, destroying all traces.

But I didn't expect it to end up being a bad plan. ”

"Make one small mistake, make up for it with a big mistake, and then make up for the first mistake with two big mistakes, and end up losing the whole game. Tokugawa Heiji smiled coldly when he heard this: "It seems that this so-called 'Hideyoshi Gong Reincarnation' can attract the 'Killing Guan Bai' heroic spirit to possess the fog ape and have ghosts, and it is not as good as the rumors say." ”

"Your Highness, whether there is a ghost hall or not, it has now become history. Momogoro said softly: "It's just noon recently, because I want to be good at the blockade line of the Nanyang government.

His father, His Highness the Misty Ape Arimori, had already killed the Ariki Temple with his own hands.

There were many witnesses at the scene, and there were Oniden who had summoned Hideyoshi's heroic spirit possession before his death.

When His Royal Highness Arimori killed him, he also used the broken soul fragments of the Ghost Temple to cast a 'spell'.

The news has been confirmed to be true. ”

Tokugawa Heiji stood for a while when he heard this, and said with a smile: "Since His Royal Highness Arimori personally killed his most outstanding son to apologize, I think my father will not punish him more."

Otherwise, it is unreasonable to say anything, but I am afraid that the Nobunaga family and the cabinet faction will have resentment.

What a good way to do it.

Momogoro, if your father were in the same situation, would he do the same?

was asked by the lord by name, and he had to answer, Momogoro thought about it seriously and spit out a word, "Yes." ”

At the same time, thousands of miles away in Xiangyuan Guoxiang North City University Town, Zhang Jiao, who had just finished dinner, was strolling out of a canteen in the food street, breathing fresh air comfortably and burping.
