After the greetings, Tang Zeqian said in a non-nutritious manner: "This time I have worked hard!"

After all, after this big battle, except for him hiding in the Hook Xuan Pavilion and relying on the "Pure Land Holy Lotus" to control the battlefield, there is no one who is not hard.

"It's hard work, but it's worth it!" Akamatsu Hiromasa said, "Although the ghost gate turmoil in the Kyoto Imperial Palace has come to an end, there are still ghost babies who have not been caught, and Hosokawa Guan Ling thinks that it is also our duty to capture ghost babies, so this time I specially came to the door to listen to the teachings of His Excellency the hall owner, and see how to reduce the losses caused by the escape of the ghost baby as much as possible......"

"Lord Guan Ling has a heart!"

Tang Zeqian's interest was not very high.

Mainly because he had been deflated by the "Pure Land Holy Lotus" before, and when he thought that his cultivation path could only be improved by thunder splitting, he felt that he had no expectations for the future!

It's as if the whole life has become boring.

Because of this, he didn't show too much enthusiasm for the Shadow Shogunate.

Hosokawa Takashi also seemed to sense that the atmosphere was a little unharmonious, and he originally wanted to follow Akamatsu Hiroshi's words, turn his own modesty, and pat Tang Zeqian's ass again, expressing his hope to be protected by Tang Zeqian.

But after a flash of inspiration in his mind, it suddenly dawned on him that he should tell the truth, and not try to snoop or deceive the gods.

So, after pondering for a while, he said very decisively: "Actually, I can't talk about it, mainly because the position of our shadow shogunate in the past two hundred years has been very awkward, half-black and white, and it can't be recognized by the world.

This time, the youkai are going to cooperate with the Filthy Netherworld, trying to win over our Shadow Shogunate, and let us help beat the side drums and wave the flag. Thankfully, Goemon and Hiroshi Akamatsu saw through the monster's attempt.

Akamatsu Hiroshi felt that although our shadow shogunate had a bad reputation, it had always been like a rat in the gutter, and could only lurk underground, occasionally coming out to wreak havoc...... But even so, we are still human beings, and we must not cooperate with the ghosts of the filthy earth and the ghosts of the netherworld, otherwise we will not become 'human traitors'?

Therefore, after discussion, we decided to inform the owner of the museum about this matter, mainly in the hope that we can do something beneficial to mankind in this ghost gate turmoil.

If you are lucky enough to be able to make a small contribution, it is better to pray that Your Excellency the Pavilion Master will be able to shelter the Shadow Shogunate for some time to come, and help the Shadow Shogunate change the image of the rat in the gutter, so that we can walk on the surface of the earth openly......"

Hosokawa Takashi's attitude is very sincere, and what he says is the truth, and there is nothing vain.

After Tang Zeqian heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, and he couldn't help but ask: "When outsiders talk about the shadow shogunate, they often only pay attention to the three and four positions of your shogunate...... But the Shadow Shogunate seems to be loyal to the shogun, right?, why have you never heard anyone talk about your shogun?"

Hosokawa Takashi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a moment, he said decisively: "After all, hundreds of years have passed since the shogunate handed over power, and the current general has lost confidence in the three and four positions under his command, so he is unwilling to reveal his identity. He didn't even want to live in Kyoto, let alone in the underground base of the Shadow Shogunate, so decades ago, the shogun moved to Tokyo with his descendants and cronies, summoning us only once or twice a year......

Tang Zeqian suddenly realized.

No wonder Hosokawa Takashi and Akamatsu Hiroshi will make up their minds to take this opportunity to wash the shadow shogunate.

It is probably because there is no hope in the shogun's side - after all, if the shogun still wants to cheer up and make a difference, he will definitely not leave such a large force and move to Tokyo.

I only summon them once or twice a year, and if this goes on for a long time, I may lose contact with this side at some point.

At that time, the Shadow Shogunate's underground base may become an outcast. If the logistics supply chain is cut off again, the dark ninjas, black warriors, and evil magicians in the base will be miserable.

Akamatsu Hiroshi gets along with them day and night, he should have a deep affection, the general gave up on them, but Akamatsu Hiroshi and Hosokawa Takashi are unwilling to give up on them, and they want to seek a brighter future for them.

"I understand your good intentions! These people in the Shadow Shogunate's underground base are indeed lucky to be able to meet you! It's not impossible for you to let the Shadow Shogunate's underground base take refuge in me! But ......," Tang Zeqian muttered, "From now on, many things that violated the law and discipline and undermined social stability in the past can no longer be done!"

When Hosokawa Takashi and Akamatsu Hiroshi heard this, they couldn't help but perk up: "Thank you for your pity! We will never go against the wishes of your Excellency the hall master!"

Neither of them expected that His Excellency would agree so quickly, and only put forward a condition that could not be simpler.

In fact, they've been thinking about it since they were going to wash their hands on the shore - all black, gray, violent, and illegal acts are on the ban list.

The reason why Tang Zeqian agreed, in fact, was not entirely pretending.

The main reason is that he has always been worried about the fact that he can't improve his strength at the fastest speed.

Since there is no way to directly improve one's hard power, I have to find a way to improve my soft power.

It just so happened that the shadow shogunate had such a need, wouldn't it just happen to be sleepy and come to send pillows? With such a force around him, it would play a good role in helping him what he was going to do in the future.

Hiroshi Akamatsu and Takashi Hosokawa were satisfied.

The two of them stood up, bowed to Tang Zeqian, and said, "In that case, let's take people back to the base to clean up first, and then make a detailed list of all the personnel, fixed assets, resource reserves, etc., and send them to His Excellency the Pavilion Master......"

Tang Zeqian hurriedly shook his head and said, "That's not necessary! I'm willing to accept you, but it doesn't mean that I want to be your leader, let alone meddle in the daily management of your base!"

There's only one thing you need to do - and that's to show everyone at the base that the path ahead is different from what to do and what not to do......

Of course, if someone is used to their old life and is unwilling to make changes, then let them go, don't force them to stay!"

"Yes!I will follow Your Excellency's wishes!" Akamatsu Hiroshi nodded, "Then after the matter over there is taken care of at the base, I will have Goemon and Misa Ono stationed at the Gogenkan and follow Your Excellency's instructions! They can also act as messengers, and in case of any emergency, we can also report to Your Excellency the Pavilion Master in time......"

Tang Zeqian originally wanted to refuse, the Hook Xuan Pavilion was only so big, where could there be so many people?But when his eyes glanced over Misa Ono, he nodded in a ghostly manner: "Yes!"
