different warring states of japan

Chapter 653

East Meinong, and under the mountain city.

Maeda Toshiie shook his head, drunk, and walked towards his main shogunate.The pace is like a stage catwalk, and the figure is enchanting.

After taking down Kaneyama Castle, Katsuya Shibata was in a good mood and rewarded the three armies.Maeda Toshiie, as the leader of Owari Shiba, was also invited.

He didn't eat much for a meal, and was forced to drink by Shibata Katsuya.Don't blame her for being excited, taking down Jianshan City, and all the samurai families in Dongminong trembled under the attack of the Oda family's soldiers.

Shibata Katsuie sent an envoy to Oda Nobunaga overnight to announce the good news. With this military merit, she finally secured her seat and shed the stigma of the old rebel party.

In this battle, the ashigaru led by Owari Shiba fought bravely, showed his face in front of the Oda retainers, and made great contributions to winning the city.

Shibata Katsuie paid more and more attention to Maeda Toshiie's ability, and tried to win her over, and even pulled her to talk and drink at the banquet.

In addition, each family came forward to toast, but the Maeda Toshiya was poured into a gourd of wine, and he had to return to his own camp in a daze.

I was going to rest just now, but I received a report.Murai Changlai waited in the front line to discuss with her.

Murai Chang Lai was her first retainer, and he came to this screen first because he wanted to give her some face when he needed something.

She staggered drunk and walked into the curtain, Murai Changlai and an unfamiliar Ji warrior bowed to her and bowed to the ground.

Maeda Toshiie took the main seat and took the hangover tea offered by Hatamoto next to him.While tasting, he said.

"Hime Murai, what can I do for you?"

Murai Chang Lai Fudi pleaded guilty and said.

"It is really my sin to disturb the Lord's rest.

It's just that Inaji refused to stay for a few more days, so she dared to ask the Lord to see her. "

Maeda Toshiie stared at Warrior Ji beside her, seeing that she was embarrassed.Murai Chief Lai seldom admires a person so much, and recommending her to be an official overnight, there must be something extraordinary.

"Who is this?"

The man bowed.

"Under Ina Chuji, I left from Nishimikawa just now."

Xisanhe?Run away?Maeda Toshiie squinted at her and asked.

"Are you a disciple of the Yizong sect?"

Ina Chuji was taken aback for a moment, then nodded helplessly.

"Exactly."

Maeda Toshiie's question all stemmed from Xi Sanhe's always-on-one-kook.

Songping Yuankang of Xisanhe was devastated by the Zongzong riot before, and even the war against Dongsanhe was forced to stop.

Later, Oda Nobunaga ordered Maeda Toshiie to go to Mikawa to help, and cleverly planned to calm down this time.

It's just that the Yixiang sect is still very powerful, so Matsudaira Motoyasu chose to be patient.After the situation subsided, I slowly started to settle accounts after autumn.

Not only the Yixiangzong temples everywhere were forced to convert, but Ji Wushi in Songping's vassal regiment was also asked to convert.

Many warriors of Sanhe Ji who persisted in their faith had to run away, leaving Sanhe Kingdom to find their own way out.As time went by, Matsudaira Motoyasu became more and more severe, and some shallow believers could not tolerate it.

In the past six months, the number of Ji warriors fleeing from Sanhe has not decreased but increased, and this Ina Tadaji is probably one of the victims.

Maeda Toshiie looked at Murai Changyai and listened to her explanation.

"Inaji is good at managing local government affairs, especially in water conservancy, and has a high attainment. I also went to Sanhe Country to ask her for advice.

This time she left the country and passed through Owari Shiba, and I stopped her and brought her to meet the Lord. "

Maeda Toshiie nodded. It turns out that he is a talented person in government affairs and a master in water conservancy. No wonder he is highly praised by Murai Chief Lai.

It is not difficult to find a few knives experts in the martial arts society, but it is really difficult to find someone who can write and count, and take care of housework in an orderly manner.

Especially in farming society, warrior Ji who is proficient in water conservancy engineering is even more precious, and no one is willing to let him go.

If it hadn't been for the fact that Sanhe Yiyi had shaken the foundation of the Songping family this time, Songping Yuankang would rather kill the wrong one than let it go. How could this kind of water conservancy master be cut off by other families?
But looking at Ina Chuji's reluctance, I'm afraid that Murai Chief Lai's method of retaining people is not honorable, no wonder he has to see him overnight, and quickly finalize the relationship between the master and minister.

Maeda Toshiie asked Ina Chuji with a smile.

"Your Excellency has gone to Mikawa and has no fixed place to live. Why don't you become an official at my Shiba's house?"

Ina Chuji Shanshan didn't know how to answer, so he hesitated and said at last.

"I am very grateful for your kindness, but Owari Shiba only received more than [-] shiba. The ability of Hime Murai is enough to manage it well, and it is useless to keep me."

Maeda Toshiie looked at Murai Changyai, saw her nodding helplessly, and understood the ins and outs.

This one dislikes that Owari Shiba's territory is too small to allow her to use what she has learned in her life, but she is a talented person with ambition.

Maeda Toshiie's heart skipped a beat, and the smile on his face grew wider.

"Inagi, have you ever heard of Shiba Kenshin?"

Ina Chuji said respectfully.

"of course I know.

Although I am a villain from the countryside, the governor of the Shiba family is a hero who has worked hard to restore the family business, and his name is also like a thunderbolt.

What's more, now, that person has been honored by the imperial court, and he is a direct descendant of the Hanoi Gen Clan, it is even more important to know. "

Maeda Toshiie nodded happily after hearing the first half of the sentence.But when he heard the second half of the sentence, he couldn't help but lower his face.

But when she saw Ina Tadaji's face was sincere again, she reluctantly said that her little thoughts were not good enough to happen to someone who didn't know.

"It's just an engagement."

Ina Tadaji was taken aback for a moment, not knowing how to answer this.Maeda Toshiie knew he had made a slip of the tongue, so he changed the subject.

"My Owari Shiba has a small territory, but the Shiba family has a big business.

I see that you are a great talent, and I love your talent in my heart.If you are willing to become an official with me, I will send you to Kanto to serve my Royal Highness.

Will you? "

Ina Chuji buried his head in thought.

This time she left the country, not alone, with her family behind her.

The reason why he refused to accept Murai Changyori's solicitation was because he felt that Owari Shiba had no future and wasted his own abilities.

But Maeda Toshiie's sincerity moved her a little.Although Shiba Yoshigin is a man, he is well-known throughout the world for his righteousness, generosity and generosity.

Not only has Peking University and Iga double guarded it recently, but now it has also gained a great reputation in Echigo.

Ina Tadaji is nothing more than a native of the Mikawa Kingdom. Although he is talented and famous, he is not considered a figure among other countries.

Now that she has the opportunity to join Shiba's family, Shiba Yoshiin, who is close to the noble family, climbs this high branch, and she can't help being tempted.

She thought for a while and asked.

"Master Maeda, if I were to serve you, would you really recommend me to Echigo to serve in front of the Imperial Palace?"

Maeda Toshie laughed.

"My lord is opening up a new territory in the Kanto, and as the acting official of the Siba side, it is my duty to recommend talents to serve you.

Your Excellency is a great talent, Owari Shiba can't tolerate it, but the Shiba family can always accommodate it, right? "

These words already had the intention of punishing one's heart, Ina Chuji knew what was good and bad, so he simply bowed to the ground and saluted.

"Ina Chuji pays homage to the Lord."

Maeda Toshika sat on the table and received a gift from her, reaching the contract of master and minister.
