However, from Kinoshita's point of view, there is nothing wrong with this matter. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He went all the way to Ishikawa Shumasa's house to check the accounts with him, and when he entered, he saw that all the people of the Mikawa family were here.

From the young master Matsudaira Motoyasu, to the two pillars of the Matsudaira family, Sakai Tadaji and Ishikawa Shumasa, and then to the unparalleled warrior Honda Tadakatsu in the Eastern Kingdom. Basically, the core of the Matsudaira family is here.

However, inside Ishikawa Shumasa's warehouse, there is a large amount of treasure and equipment of many bandits. As a correspondent of the Imagawa family, what would Kinoshita Tengjiro think, who came to the Mikawa area to check the accounts? As soon as he mentioned two sentences about the audit and the bandits, Ishikawa Shumasa committed suicide in fear of crime? So where is the proceeds of his suicide? can only be the mastermind behind the protection of the scenes. Otherwise, with the words that Sakai Tadaji gave Ishikawa Shumasa to go down the steps, Ishikawa Shumasa would not have suffered much punishment at all.

So from another point of view, are Sakai Tadaji's words really stepping down the ladder for him? It can't be coerced from the other side, right?

"Plead guilty, I won't blame your ......"

"Plead guilty, it's just a matter of handing over the treasure......"

From the other side, is Sakai Tadaji telling Ishikawa Shumasa: "If you want to protect the safety of your wife and children, confess your guilt!" "Go with peace of mind, I'll feed your family!"

And so on.

Kinoshita Tengjiro is a nimble head and would have thought of this step. Although there is no conclusive evidence, it is not completely impossible!

So Kinoshita Tengjiro didn't say it. He felt that these Three Rivers people were here to play with him.

Where is it so coincidental that, after I came, I found a group of people looking at the treasures of a warehouse, and then the nominal owner of these treasures committed suicide in fear of sin?

So Kinoshita Tengjiro can only suspect the most central figure of Mikawa, Matsudaira Motoyasu.

Kinoshita Tengjiro just sneered in his mouth, which was already very face-saving.

Matsudaira Motoyasu couldn't stand this. He said to himself: "I'm here to catch the bandits, and you actually suspect me?" ”

So Matsudaira Motoyasu said angrily: "What did you say? Do you dare to say that I am the mastermind behind the bandits? ”

Kinoshita Tengjiro smiled and said, "I'm just suspecting the real cause of Ishikawa-sama's death, and I didn't say who the thief was." Matsudaira-sama is so excited, could it be that I have pierced my mind? ”

Matsudaira Motoyasu said angrily: "This despicable person dares to say this about me? ”

As soon as he became angry, a dozen of his samurai, along with Honda Tadakatsu, all reached for their weapons, and they were about to do it.

Not to be outdone, Kaede here blocked in front of him with his left hand, using the shield on his forearm to protect Kinoshita Tengjiro, while his right hand also touched the big axe on his waist.

For a while, the two rows of people were tense, and there was a tendency to make a move.

Sakai Tadaji couldn't stand it anymore.

If he is replaced by an ordinary enemy, if he dares to mock Matsudaira Motoyasu, the so-called lord humiliates the ministers to death, and as a retainer of the Matsudaira family, he must stand up for Matsudaira Motoyasu.

But he knew Kaede's strength.

On the battlefield, invincible, very powerful. Honda Tadashikatsu, with the support of Gao Xianda's powerful armor-piercing arrows, barely managed to reach a tie with Kaede.

Although there are a few other samurai here, who can barely replace the vacancy of Gao Xianda, Kaede is thick-skinned and thick-skinned, and it is easy to defeat him, but it is difficult to kill him.

And this is Ishikawa Shumasa's home, which is still too narrow compared to the battlefield outside. Matsudaira Motoyasu had no way to escape.

If you can kill Kinoshita Tengjiro in the melee, it won't be a credit. And if Matsudaira Motoyasu makes a mistake, then they will lose a lot.

And Kinoshita Tengjiro is also considered to be the Imagawa family's chaplain, and when the other party has no obvious fault, openly attacking him is a dilemma with the Imagawa family.

In particular, Gao Xianda is now in Okazaki City, and he can't hide it even if he wants to.

So Sakai Tadaji hurriedly jumped out and said, "Everyone is calm and calm. We are all retainers of the Imagawa family, working for a lord. Although the goals are slightly different, the general direction is the same. How can you hurt your harmony for such a trivial matter? ”

Kinoshita Tengjiro didn't really want to go to war with Matsudaira Motoyasu. After all, this is the territory of the Mikawa Matsudaira clan, and no matter what masters he has to help him, if he really fights, he will still suffer.

He was just a little annoyed that Matsudaira Motoyasu looked down on him, saying that he was the son of a peasant, a lowly man. But that's the way it is, and there's no way around it.

So Kinoshita Tengjiro borrowed a step down and said, "Don't worry about Matsudaira-sama, I'm just saying this casually." It's up to you to catch the bandits. I'm just a tax officer, and I'm only in charge of my finances. ”

Matsudaira Motoyasu had also thought of the consequences of a real war, and when he saw Kinoshita Tengjiro retreating, it was difficult for him to force it over. Then he said: "Kinoshita-sama, don't worry, as the Imagawa family's law and order officer, I will definitely enforce the law impartially." These bandits will never be allowed to go unpunished. I have a clue, and I will report it to my lord. ”

"That's for the best." Kinoshita Tengjiro said with a grin, "Then congratulations to you in advance." I just hope that if the adults really can't catch people, they won't take ordinary peasants. Don't forget, I'm the son of a peasant. ”

"You ......" Matsudaira Motoyasu was once again pierced by Kinoshita Tengjiro.

Of course, this is not Matsudaira's problem. It's just that in this era, it has become the norm for samurai adults to take the villagers to the top of the tank in order to make a deal. And Kinoshita Tengjiro, as the son of a farmer, has naturally seen these tragedies.

At this time, Kinoshita Tengjiro said again: "Then I will also finish my work." Ishikawa-sama's warehouse contains many unregistered belongings. Whether it is something that has no owner or a thief who has stored it here, according to the regulations, all of them must be confiscated. My lord, if you hear of anyone who has hard evidence that these things are theirs, let them come to me. ”

Kinoshita Tengjiro has said that these things are related to bandits, and who really dares to ask him for them?

Matsudaira Motoyasu only managed to suppress the bandits, regardless of finances, and he couldn't stop him. He had no choice but to let Kaede load all the treasures in the warehouse onto the carriage outside the door.

But Matsudaira Motoyasu followed Kinoshita Tengjiro out of the door, looked at the carriage brought by Kinoshita Tengjiro, and was stunned all of a sudden.

This car is a little too big, isn't it? He was able to load all the treasures in the warehouse on the car. If Kinoshita Tengjiro came this time without premeditation, who would believe it!
