For a moment, the scene became very awkward. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"You...... How did you end up here? After waiting for a long time, Matsudaira Motoyasu decided to be the first to break the silence.

Although Kinoshita Tengjiro was the son of a peasant, not only did Oda Nobunaga give him the name of a samurai, but after Gao Xianda took office, he also respected him. So Matsudaira Motoyasu decided that it would be better to respect him.

"Ah, actually, it's nothing. I'm here to find Ishikawa-sama. Kinoshita Tengjiro smiled innocently and said, "Lord Shima came to Okazaki Castle today, and I happened to ask about the tax accounts in the city. As the tax collector in the city, I remember that the last time I finished the accounts with Ishikawa-sama, you didn't seem to have signed for me. So I'm coming to you. What, you're talking about something important? ”

"This damned farmer's son." Ishikawa Shumasa said secretly, "It's too rude!" How dare you trespass! ”

But at this time, in front of Matsudaira Motoyasu, it was naturally not easy to attack. He said, "Let's go, let's go out first." You bring the ledger, and I'll draw a bet for you. ”

But Kinoshita Tengjiro was not stupid, he glanced inside, and said, "Yo, I don't think there is any need to rush to draw the accounts now." What's in your warehouse? Then the accounts we checked before may seem wrong now? ”

"It's all someone else's place with me." Ishikawa Shumasa glared for a moment, and wanted to perfunctory.

Kinoshita Tengjiro disagreed, saying, "Others? Then Ishikawa-sama will have to tell me who they are. If I'm not mistaken, these clothes and weapons don't look like the preparation of a city garrison, but rather like the garb of a bandit in the countryside. ”

When Ishikawa heard this, he was very angry and said, "This has nothing to do with you!" ”

He saw that Kinoshita Tengjiro was short, like a monkey. Ishikawa Shumasa was much taller in comparison, so he wanted to use his strength to drive Kinoshita Tengjiro out.

But I don't know when, a giant in armor more than two meters tall has been standing next to Kinoshita Tengjiro. He took a slight step forward, and he blocked Ishikawa Shumasa to death, and Ishikawa Shumasa couldn't get past it at all.

At this time, Matsudaira Motoyasu, who was next to him, also said: "Lord Ishikawa, since you said that it was deposited by someone else, then you know who they are?" Why, you don't want to reveal it, do you want to cover them up? ”

"Young master, I really don't know!" Shumasa Ishikawa explained.

"Since you don't know who the owner is, do you admit that these things are yours?" Kinoshita Tengjiro mended the knife path next to him.

Ishikawa Shumasa was driven crazy.

Sakai Tadaji saw this situation and knew that he couldn't save Ishikawa Shumasa now, so he had to cover his forehead with his hand helplessly. He pondered for a moment, and finally spoke: "Lord Ishikawa, bandits are rampant in the Mikawa area, and it is not a great evil to harbor bandits. If you can honestly explain and tell the truth about the situation of the bandits, the young master will think that you are an old minister, and consider the credit for your initiative to confess, and maybe you will not be guilty of the past. At the same time, if you are willing to hand over all the illegal gains of harboring the bandits, I am sure that Kinoshita-sama will not embarrass you. ”

Sakai Tadaji is already handing Ishikawa the steps. His meaning was obvious: "Plead guilty." Now that you have been convicted of harboring the bandits, you confess your guilt honestly, and I can maneuver for you. As for the matter of paying the money, it can be regarded as a ruin and a disaster. ”

As a famous minister of the Matsudaira family, Ishikawa Shumasa can actually understand what Sakai Tadaji is saying. But he was very unwilling. He thinks he's done things seamlessly, and he's never put these bandits' stuff in the warehouse, so maybe he's seeing a ghost today?

And it is true that the contents of this warehouse are not owned by him alone, and there are some other retainers who have put their illegal gains here in Ishikawa Shumasa and are kept by him. If all of them are handed over, and these creditors come to them, I am afraid that they will live more than they die.

So Ishikawa Shumasa gritted his teeth and said, "It's not my thing, and it has nothing to do with bandits." ”

Matsudaira Motoyasu also understood that Tadaji Sakai was delivering a message to Ishikawa Shumasa. In fact, Matsudaira Motoyasu didn't care about the old minister, but he was unhappy that the old minister relied on the old and sold the old, and didn't take him, the young master, seriously. In fact, as long as Ishikawa Shumasa honestly admits his mistakes, there is nothing that cannot be discussed.

But hearing that Ishikawa Shumasa was still gritting his teeth and insisting, Matsudaira Motoyasu couldn't help but shake his head.

As for Kinoshita Tengjiro, he could only sneer twice on the side.

Ishikawa looked at his men, and then at Matsudaira Motoyasu's personal samurai.

When he looked at Honda Tadakatsu, the tall Honda Tadakatsu glared at him angrily, like King Kong in a temple. And when he looked at Kaede, Kaede didn't react at all, and all that answered him was the cold armor.

Ishikawa Shumasa knew that he wouldn't be able to escape today no matter what, so it was better to save his reputation.

So Ishikawa Shu looked up to the sky and let out a long roar: "Wronged! I'm going to prove my innocence with my blood! ”

Ishikawa Shumasa took out the rib gap he was carrying with him and stuck a knife in his stomach.

"Lord Ishikawa! I can't help it! "Tadaji Sakai and Shumasa Ishikawa have a deep relationship, where can I see this? He hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, but it was too late.

Although Matsudaira Motoyasu achieved his goal, somehow, there was something wrong in his heart. So he sighed and said to Honda Tadatsu: "Forget it, give him a good time." ”

"Yes!" Honda Tadakatsu nodded, pulled out his waist knife, walked over quickly, and cut off Ishikawa Shumasa's head with a single sword.

Kinoshita Tengjiro said beside him, "Mikawa's samurai tutor is really strict. ”

Matsudaira Motoyasu heard Kinoshita Tengjiro talking cool next to him, so he was a little angry and said, "What did you say? When will it be your turn to discuss the style of our Three Rivers samurai? ”

Kinoshita Tengjiro saw that Matsudaira Motoyasu was really anxious, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't take it seriously, I don't mean anything else." I'm just sorry for Ishikawa-sama. ”

Matsudaira Motoyasu heard him say this, and only then did he settle down a little.

Who knows that Kinoshita Tengjiro continued: "It's just that Ishikawa-sama has a high status and has been the head of the Matsudaira family for generations, so what reason is there to commit suicide for such a trivial matter?" I don't think he committed suicide, but was forced to die, right? And the person who can force the old man of the Matsudaira family to death...... Tut-tut! I'm afraid it's the real mastermind of these bandits, right? ”

He was already pointing at Matsudaira Motoyasu.
