different warring states of japan

Chapter 1147

Fujido Takatora shook his lips twice, not knowing what to say for a while.Her mother sent her here to see her, just to get rid of the relationship with the leader of the Fujitang.

Fortunately, Otani Kichitsu chased her to Gifu City, dragged her to plead with Yudai for the benefit of Maeda, and immediately cornered her.

If it is said that Maeda Yili is completely ignorant, it must be false.That guy is obsessed with the lord, and he dares to be angry and speak out against the Ashikaga general who wants to marry the lord by force.

What Akechi Mitsuhide did, Todo Takatora really didn't know.But what Maeda Masayoshi did, he didn't hide it from Todo Takatora in his small circle.

Through his daughter Todo Takataka, Todo Toraka knew that Maeda's interests were involved in the Kyoto incident, and immediately ordered her to come to Gifu City to meet the lord, in order to extract the Todo family.

Fujido Takatora also thinks it is reasonable to do so. Although we are good sisters, but Maeda Yoshihiro made such a death, the sisters had to find their own way out.

She has always boasted that she has outstanding abilities, even if she surrenders to Yoshihiko Shiba, she still feels a little awkward.Warrior Ji should seek employment with the seven lords throughout his life, and keep looking for a way to climb up.

Although Shiba Yoshigin is powerful, he is a man after all. The future of the Shiba family is uncertain, so don't get caught up in it.

It's just that Fujido Takatora's idea has been suppressed by her mother.My mother has never been a decent person in half her life. Once the opportunity is obtained, the current family business is very satisfied and she is content with the status quo.

Fujido Takatora's active mind has never been revealed.To this day, she did not hesitate to betray Maeda's interests, and finally revealed a little bit of cold nature.

But Yoshitani Otani's statement in front of Yoshihiko Shiba left Todo Takatora suddenly at a loss as to what to do.

Although Todo Takatora intends to disregard the relationship, Maeda Yoshitoshi is the leader of the Shiba generals faction after all, and his intention of betrayal should not be too obvious, otherwise he will not be able to continue to lead the gang in Shiba in the future.

She thought for a moment, gritted her teeth and bowed with Otani Kichitsu, and said.

"That's what I mean, my lord.

Mr. Maeda Yishi has made great achievements, and everyone has seen the achievements of suppressing the Liujiao family in the past two years.She was just a momentary oversight, and she has absolutely no second thoughts about you.

Godaisho, I dare to guarantee with my life that Maeda Yoshi-sama is a loyal servant of the Shiba family! "

Otani Yoshitsugu made a clever move, and Todo Takatora quickly realized it, and took up the conversation.

Shiba Yoshigin sneered at their cleverness, but he was helpless.

Is Maeda profit loyal to him?That must be loyal.But the problem is, whether she is loyal or not is not the same as whether she participates in the Kyoto Incident!

The retainers of the retainers are not my retainers. This is a characteristic of the enfeoffment system.

General Ashikaga is rich in the world, and he claims that all the samurai in the world are subordinates of General Ashikaga.But specifically, Maeda Yoshiki is not Ashikaga Yoshiki's retainer, but Shibo Yoshigin's retainer.

She is loyal to Shiba Yoshigin, and she can stab Ashikaga Yoshiki with a knife, which is not in conflict!
Otani Yoshitsugu confused right and wrong, secretly changed concepts, and forcibly blocked Maeda Yoshitoshi's loyalty to Shiba Yoshiyin from the truth of the Kyoto Incident.

Anyway, Fujibayashi Xing is also dead, and there is no proof of death. Who will prove that Maeda Yoshiki is really involved?Who would believe what that bastard Akechi Mitsuhide said!

Yiyin sighed, feeling melancholy in his heart.

He recalled that when he was in Owari, he had nothing, and it was Maeda Yoshiki who took him to clean up the villains in the wilderness and taught him the skills of fighting and killing people.

It can be said that there would be no Shiba Yoshiin today without Maeda Yoshikashi, the number one retainer.

Yoshinori can ignore Otani Yoshitsugu's sophistry.But if he really wants to knock Maeda's interest out of the mortal world, will Yi Yin have the heart?
He rubbed his forehead, feeling weak.

To Takada Yono, he couldn't do anything cruel.For Maeda's interests, he still couldn't do anything cruel.After all, Ashikaga Yoshiki died in vain.

Yoshigin could even see Akechi Mitsuhide's mocking smile with hypocrisy and elegance flickering in front of his eyes.That bastard already knew that there was nothing he could do.

Even the retainers can't clean up, how can the foreign ministers clean up?If one treats the other more favorably than the other, Yiyin's fair and strict reputation will inevitably be damaged.

Yiyin slowly closed his eyes and said.

"I'm tired, you all leave."

Otani Yoshitsugu and Todo Takatora looked at each other, neither of them could understand what the lord was thinking.

After a long silence, Otani Yoshitsugu mustered up his courage and asked.

"Odaisho, about Maeda Yoshito-sama..."

Yiyin closed his eyes, not wanting to see the phantom of Mingzhi Guangxiu dangling in front of him, and sighed leisurely.

"I've told you all the truth, what else can I say? She has merit, she has merit, and I also think of the good things she did when she followed me back then.

Well, I believe she is. "

Dagu Jiji couldn't bear to see the tired face of the lord, and felt that what he did today was very outrageous.

Ke thought about it, but didn't know what to say to comfort the lord.These important ministers led by Si Bo are really bastards in recent days, and she also loses face.

So, she kowtowed to the ground and resigned with Fujido Gaohu.

After the two of them left, Yiyin slowly opened his eyes and looked at the beam.

Ceremony collapsed and music broke down, wolves ruled, leading beasts to eat people.This world does not allow people to live, they must either join forces with others, or die quickly.

It's so hard to be a human being.

---

Fujido Takahu walked out of the inner courtyard and looked up at the New Year's sunshine, as if in a lifetime.

Otani Jitsu walked up to her silently, stared at her and said.

"Todo Takatora, do you still remember the oath back then? What did you and I say in front of Maeda Hime?"

Fujido Takatora lowered her head, she was a little confused when she saw the sun just now, she said with a wry smile.

"Dagu Ji, I don't mean to betray you, but I can't disobey my mother's order. After all, I'm not the governor of the Fujido family yet."

Fujido Takataka pushed the responsibility completely, and blamed it all on his mother Todo Takataka.She is only the heir of the Fujido family, and it is not wrong to obey the orders of the family governor.

Otani Yoshitsuya snorted and said nothing more.

She was covered with a head wrap due to illness all the year round, Fujido Gaohu couldn't see her face, but knew that this matter would inevitably cause a rift in the relationship between the two.

Fujido Takahu secretly sighed, Otani Yoshitsugu is really dead-headed, he doesn't understand the principle of judging the situation.

A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and Maeda is obsessed with lust. He is not a good boss, so why hang himself on this crooked neck tree?
Friendship?Can we talk about friendship these days?In the troubled times, all the loving and righteous people have already frankly died.

Fujido Takahu felt that there was nothing wrong, but she knew Otani Kichitsugu's temper, so she didn't dare to say anything, she just said it in a casual way.

"Otani Hime is really powerful. You have been so outspoken to the imperial court that you have managed to make the Lord give in and recognize Maeda Hime's loyalty."

Otani Yoshitsuji said with a look of shame on his face.

"The Imperial Palace is the ruler of benevolence and righteousness. I am a ruler who uses villainous tricks to coerce righteousness and reason. I am not the behavior that a loyal minister should have.

It's just for Maeda Hime, I have to do it as a last resort, I really feel ashamed of my lord's kindness. "

Fujido Takatora disagrees.

Shiba Yoshigin is indecisive and also a person who values ​​affection too much.In troubled times, this is the way to death.

This incident further strengthened her opinion. It is really impossible to see a bright future with a sentimental man.

This Sibo family lacks genealogy, has no young master, and the family governor is a man.One day Shiba Yoshiyin accidentally dies, no matter how big the family business is, it will collapse in an instant.

It's just that the mother is stubborn, and thinking of Shiba Yoshihiro's support and support, Todo Takatora can only hold back all the words in his heart, and dare not speak nonsense.

Fujido Takahu was thinking about something, and he never forgot to compliment him.

"Da Gu Ji humbled herself.

It's because of your hard work that Maeda Ji can pass the test smoothly. I'm really happy for her. "

Otani Kichitsu looked at her seriously for a moment, and finally sighed.

"Fujido Hime, you and Maeda Hime fought together from thousands of troops, and finally gained the power, position and wealth that we have today.

This time, I don't care about it, but don't have a next time, okay? "

Fujido Gaohu groaned in his heart, but his face was pleasant, and he nodded in agreement.

"It's natural.

This time, my mother forced me to go, so I didn't have the opportunity to go to Iga country to discuss with you.But I also wrote a letter specifically to remind you. "

Otani Yoshitsugu eased his attitude, bowed and said.

"I was too harsh, please forgive Todo Hime."

Fujido Takatora hurriedly bowed back and said.

"It's because I didn't think well, so please forgive me."

After mutual understanding, the atmosphere warmed up, and the two walked out while talking.Gamo's Township has already prepared a residence for them, and they just went to rest together.

The two of them seemed to have no grievances, and it was impossible to tell whether there was any knot in their hearts.

---

With the arrival of Takada Yoshino, Todo Takatora, and Otani Yoshitsugu one after another, Shiba Yoshigin's doubts about the past few days of Shiba's leadership gradually dispelled.

Only then did Yiyin realize that he was far stronger than he imagined.Just holding back his anger, he frightened the concubines of Sibo to come forward to show their loyalty, lest they be left behind and become cannon fodder.

With this momentum and the new ideas of the Sibo Zhong Fund, the time for Shibo Yoshihiro to return to the recent past is already ripe.

But at this time, he has already agreed with Oda Nobunaga that he will jointly support Ashikaga Yoshiaki Shangluo, so naturally he can no longer return to Kinji without authorization.

He ordered Takata Yoshino, Fujido Takatora, and Otani Yoshitsugu to return to Jinji first, and arrange the follow-up matters for the army to go to Luo.

Oda Nobunaga has gathered all the supplies for the winter, and the army is fully mobilized.

Maeda Toshiie mobilized Owari Shiba to join the army, together with Yukimori Yamanaka's Hime Samurai regiment, formed the Shiba family's Shangluo army.

Tokugawa Ieyasu also came with the army of the Tokugawa family and arrived at Gifu City.

Oda, Shiba, and Tokugawa are expected to mobilize more than [-] soldiers, and everything is ready.Just wait for Ashikaga Yoshiaki to come, then he can go to Luojingdu and restore the shogunate.

---

Ashikaga Yoshiaki looked at Gifu Castle in front of him, hesitating.

The coalition forces that support her are right in front of her eyes, and she is only one step away from the throne of General Ashikaga, but she still has resentment in her heart.

Everything has changed.

As a sister of Ashikaga Yoshiki, she traveled to various powerful clans in several countries and regions.Although the attitudes of each family are different, but out of respect for the Ashikaga family, Ashikaga Yoshiaki enjoyed a lot of honor.

But with the return of Yoshihiko Shiba, the attitudes of each family changed instantly.

Born in the noble family of Shiba Zong, who is famous as Ashikaga Yoshiki's fiancé, holds a sword, wears a gold seal on his body, and leans on the imperial white flag. Which identity of Shiba Yoshigin is not more orthodox than Ashikaga Yoshiaki?
He is recognized by the whole world as the descendant of the Hanoi Genji family, and he is much, much better than Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the embarrassing Xibei product.

These days, Ashikaga Yoshiaki finally felt what Wada Yuimasa and the others meant to persuade him.As soon as Shiba Yoshiyin came back, he really became a tasteless person, and no one cared anymore.

What's even more hateful is that Wada Yuima and the others were also frightened by Shiba Yoshigin, and they didn't dare to help Ashikaga Yoshiaki fight for the orthodox position of Hanoi Minamoto's descendants, and they knelt in fright.

Not only did they kneel by themselves, but they also persuaded Ashikaga Yoshiaki to kneel together. How could Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who had just enjoyed the honor of General Ashikaga, endure it!
But the situation is stronger than others, Ashikaga Yoshiaki finally came to Gifu City pinching his nose, and as the widow of General Ashikaga's family, begged Shiba Yoshigin to help him ascend to the position of general.

Her eyes were full of anger and shame. She was supposed to be the most honorable person in the world, but she had to endure being manipulated by a man.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki secretly made up her mind that one day, she would become a veritable master of the world.No one can climb on top of her and domineering, no one!

---

In the castle tower of Gifu Castle, Shiba Yoshigin sat on the main seat.The lower half of the seats is empty, this is the seat reserved for Ashikaga Yoshiaki.

Further down, there are two seats of Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu, as well as various high-ranking samurai who participated in this reception.

Shiba Yoshigin was a little bored sitting on the main seat, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki's speed was much slower than expected.

Oda Nobunaga was obviously getting impatient and shouted outside.

"Hasn't the person arrived yet? Send someone to check again!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu said with a smile.

"His Highness Oda, please be safe and don't be impatient. It may be that His Royal Highness Ashikaga has just arrived, and he is not familiar with the road, so he wasted a little time."

Oda Nobunaga tapped the tatami with the paper fan in his hand and said.

"I sent someone to show the way, why are you so slow? Lord Kenxin is tired of waiting!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu smiled and said nothing, Shiba Yoshigin glanced at the insolent Oda Nobunaga, but remained silent.This bastard was obviously upset with himself, so he insisted on pulling out Yiyin's tiger skin to talk about it.

With the identities of the three present, it is normal for Yoshigin to wait for Ashikaga Yoshiaki to see him here. He is the widow of Ashikaga Yoshiki, and he is the descendant of Kawachi Genji.

But Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu are more subtle.

If Shiba Yoshigin is not there, they will definitely go out to meet Ashikaga Yoshiaki and show their respect to Ashikaga General's family.

But when Shiba Yoshihiro was here, Oda Nobunaga would not go to greet him carelessly, as if waiting for Ashikaga Yoshiaki to see him together, it was too ostentatious.

Tokugawa Ieyasu was a bit uneasy, but she was an ally of Oda Nobunaga.If Oda Nobunaga doesn't go, if she goes, wouldn't she lose her worth?
Originally, the two alliances of Oda and Tokugawa were a little out of balance. If Tokugawa Ieyasu was shorter in political behavior, it would be even more difficult to get along with in the future.

As a result, it became like this, the three of them waited for Ashikaga Yoshiaki at the castle tower together.It was already an embarrassing situation, but it was even more interesting when Yoshiaki Ashikaga was late.

The Wu family values ​​etiquette, and of course the meeting will be properly arranged, and the route will be calculated in advance to avoid the nobleman waiting for a long time.

But just as Oda Nobunaga forgot to go out, Ashikaga Yoshiaki seems to have forgotten the time.

Isn't this a coincidence?
