Chapter 994
In the path in the fields outside the Tokaido Junfu Castle, Yamamoto Kansuke urged Imakawa Jungre to rush on his way as soon as possible, but he was lamenting the previous layout of the Lord Masaru Masaru:
"As for the arrangements that he had arranged personnel to lurk among various Tokaido forces several years in advance, this time it provided great convenience for everyone. This time, the reason why Imakawa's letters were sent to the city was that they had more help from these people. ︽∴Although Ichiku's wife knew some of the situation in advance, this is probably a bit inappropriate, but in the next plan, this wife can indeed play a great role, so this risk is still worth a try."
"Of course." Thinking of this, Yamamoto Kansuke looked at the Shinfu Castle in the distant mountains again. "If what the lord said really will happen, then the arrangement this time is indeed worth it."
To be honest, he still didn't believe the speculations of the lord Masaru Masaru that he learned about this time before leaving. After all, no matter how deduced, no force could stop the Imakawa family along the way of Imakawa Yoshimoto.
"But, the lord's previous speculations were surprisingly accurate, which is really scary! I hope this time is the same, otherwise the previous arrangement would have been wasted, and the arrangements of the Luo family in the local area over the past few years will also be exposed." Yamamoto Kansuke thought to himself, "In addition, I don't know what the situation is like at this time when the young master and others who stayed in Toru River?"
However, the people who were concerned about Luo Shi Nobura and others, who were about to welcome several guests.
In the Toei Iya area, birds fly high in the blue sky. From a distance, you can see the eaves of Iya Castle in the mountains. On the right of Iya Castle is a paradise. On the left is the woods of Hachimanda Shrine, connected to the woods of the paradise, and then there are only a few families. There are no decent mountains here. Inari Mountain and Tomaruda Mountain in front can only be regarded as small hills. Although the land is wide, the cultivated land is limited.
At this time, on the dry road outside the south mountain of the city, among the two men and one woman, three men and three men who looked like travelers, one of them was shouting to a brave and powerful farmer who was working in the nearby fields:
"Hey! Is there a young master Xinliang living here?"
When he heard someone asking for directions, the brave farmer who seemed to be working immediately stood up with a hoe and looked at the two men and a woman in front of him.
The woman looked not old last year, with big dark eyes, soft and plump red lips, and delicate little Yao nose. She was indeed a beauty. As for the two men next to the woman, one was young but had a beard, while the other looked much cleaner. However, judging from the samurai sword in his hand, this man should be of good martial arts.
After observing the three people asking for directions in an instant, the brave farmer immediately said, "Did you come from the city?"
The farmer did not answer the other party's words, but asked the three of them another question.
"No, I'm just a traveler."
"Oh! Since he is a traveler, why do you know that there is a young master Xinliang here?"
After hearing this, two men, one and one female, immediately took their hats and looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The farmer looked really not simple.
Among these three men and one woman, the one among them was Maeda Maeda Maeda Maeda Maeda, the one holding a samurai sword and the one with a beard was Maeda Maeda himself. After accidentally killing Achito Ami, the Maeda Maeda Maeda first escaped to the Kumatsu family where Yuji Motoyaku, the mother of Ohashikoku, and completed the task assigned to him by Oda Nobunaga. Then he and his wife Asong rushed to Mikawa Kingdom to continue to complete the task given by Oda Nobunaga.
Unfortunately, in Okazaki Castle, Mikawakun, the Maeda family could not see Matsuhei Motoyaku. After waiting for several days, he had to leave the message that Oda Nobunaga asked Akito Ami, who was accidentally killed by him, to several important retainers of the Matsuhei family.
After completing these tasks, he suddenly didn't know where to go (in fact, he was hesitating in his heart at this time, not knowing whether to return to the territory of the Oda family, such as going to the Kumatsu family, or continuing to stay in the Mikawa area).
Fortunately, his wife Asong reminded him in time at this time (actually, she made the decision). The Maeda Taki family remembered the night when he accidentally killed Achitoshi Ami. After being rescued by Kimao Shigetachi, he got the address of Kimao Shigetachi's friend.
However, what made Maeda Takiya depressed was that because the address given by Kizao Shigetachi was written in charcoal, after so long, even if Maeda Takiya was willing to preserve it, the charcoal traces on the paper had long been blurred. Fortunately, his wife Ah Song made a contribution again. Since she had carefully remembered the address before, there was no need to guess the address from the vague words on the paper.
According to the address, they did find a barbecue by Hamamatsu Lake in Toonge Country. After seeing the paper from Kizao Shigetachi, the owner of the barbecue enthusiastically left the barbecue Taki and Aso in the barbecue as guests for free.
During this period, the two also met the island, who was traveling on the far river (also known as the island Kiyoshi or the island Katsumoto, this great man seemed "mediocre" in the first half of his life, but he showed his dazzling glory in the second half of his life. According to many historical records in later generations, it has been pointed out that the island had traveled in the Tokaido area for several years during this period).
Because the Maeda Taki family had a good time talking about it, over time, the two became good friends, and they even planned to travel to the nearby areas together for the next period of time.
At this moment, the owner of the Sakai suddenly told the Maeda Takara that if he planned to contribute to the original Oda family during the period of Imakawa Yoshimoto Konoro, he could go to a place to find someone. This person is the Luo family Nobura. Of course, in order to avoid exposing his true identity, Luo family Nobura would call himself the son of Nobura.
Since he was awakened by Kizunaga that night and released the city of Kizunaga, the Maeda Taki family completely believed in Kizunaga, and naturally believed in Kizunaga's friend, not to mention that he really wanted to make some contributions to the Oda family, so he tried to get Oda Nobunaga's forgiveness. So he really took Asong with him. As for the island near, he had originally planned to travel to the nearby areas together, so he simply followed.
In this way, after a journey, today, they finally arrived at the place where Mr. Xinliang was, but because they didn't know where Mr. Xinliang was, they had to ask about the working farmers on the roadside.
It was only now that I realized that the farmer seemed not simple either. The farmer seemed to not believe them very much. In desperation, the Maeda Taki family had to take out the token that the owner of the diner room had to prove their identity before leaving.
After seeing the Maeda Taki family's photo taken out, which was printed on the bottom with Arabic numerals that were only unique to the Luo family in the Warring States Period, the farmer finally smiled:
"So that's it. Just walk along this path. Young Master Xinliang should be in the nearby woods at this time. Maybe if there is enough time, you will still have a good show."
"Good show?"
"Haha, it's inconvenient to say more about this matter. You will naturally understand it after you go there." The farmer smiled and shook his head.
"Oh! Thank you for disturbing me." As he said that, the Maeda Taki family picked up the hat and went with Asong and Shimazuki and the two of them pointed by the farmer.
"Haha. It turned out to be them. Fortunately, the intelligence personnel from our family came to say hello in advance, otherwise they would not dare to tell them the young master's information. I really didn't expect that I would meet the lord's talent list here that spread widely at home." Looking at the three Maeda Taki family who were leaving, the farmer smiled and said to himself.
This farmer is indeed not an ordinary person, his name is Takahashi Shaoyun. Of course, he is not the second son of the Otomo Yoshihiro family in the "double walls" of the Otomo family in history (the person was later renamed Takahashi Shaoyun). Because the father of the Yoshihiro family, Yoshihiro family, the second son of the Yoshihiro family, died very early in the conflict with the Luo family. At that time, Yoshihiro Shinji was not born yet, so in this life, this famous general who was originally very famous in history had no chance to come to the world.
The current Takahashi Shaoyun was originally a servant next to Masarara's wife, Sara Risa. When he was facing the trap jointly set by the Ouchi family and the Otomo family, it was this servant who followed the order of Sara Risa who was under house arrest in the Ouchi family and risked to deliver the "Bag of Beans" to the hands of the Luo family overnight, so that the Luo family reinforcements were dispatched in time to rescue Masara who was trapped in the trap.
Later, this servant even stood up to protect the interests of the Luo family in the strategy of the Chuqian Kingdom, facing the threat of hostile forces, which made the Asan family, an important tycoon in the Chuqian Kingdom, and finally surrendered to the Luo family.
For this reason, Masayoshi recruited him as a guard and rewarded him with the Miao character from the famous Takahashi family in the former country, and asked him to change his name to Takahashi Shaoyun. In order to monitor the local Takahashi family, which surrendered to the Luo family, he took the opportunity to send him to the Takahashi family's territory.
Takahashi Shaoyun did not disappoint Masayora. After joining the Takahashi family, he used his ability to help Takahashi's family's governor, Takahashi Nagato, manage the territory well, and even met Takahashi Nagato's daughter, who had been designated by Masashira as the next heir to Takahashi's family. This time, it was precisely in order to further train Takahashi Shaoyun that Masashi joined him in the expedition.
"What kind of good show is there?" Just as Takahashi Shaoyun sighed, the island near the road was approaching, looking up at the birds chirping by the sky, and then turned his eyes to the dark green forest and said to himself.
The woods at noon seemed peaceful.
"When you get there, you can see it." Maeda Takiya said, and after that he immediately stepped into the forest with Asong.
After walking for a while, they found a white shadow suddenly appeared under the shade of the trees on the original forest.
"Ah! Maybe some kids!"
The three of them slowly pushed away the grass and moved forward slowly. When they were about to approach, they suddenly disappeared behind the ancient tree.
"What the hell is going on?"
I saw a circle drawn on a small open space in the forest, and two children were playing sumo wrestling in the circle. If they were boys, it would not be so shocking, but no matter how you look at it, they all looked like thirteen or four-year-old girls!
Their skin looks particularly fair, and it should be close to the sequel period. However, the two of them were dressed the same as the boys dressed in the same suit, and they tied a strap. They were the same as the boys tied each other. Their eyes were very serious. Both of them looked at each other with their buttocks raised. However, this was not the only group, there were many groups of girls dressed in the same circle.
"Not yet, not yet, continue to look at the other person, continue to look at the other person." A voice suddenly appeared.
The three of them immediately raised their upper bodies, trying to find the owner of the sound. The one who made the sound was actually a young man. He sat on the platform four or five steps behind the female sumo wrestler on his right hand, looking at the sumo field.
The boy seemed to be about sixteen or seven years old, with his hair tied to the sky in the center of his head and clamped it with a clip. After seeing the two breaths match, the boy suddenly shouted: "Okay! Start." With this wild cry, the two girls rushed towards each other at the same time.
Among the three, Ah Song frowned sadly when he saw this scene. In a mess, the people in the west won.
"Achuan wins."
The boy screamed, then waved to the victorious girl, asking her to come over and give her a big rice ball beside her. The girl took the rice ball from the boy's hand panting and began to swallow food.
It seems that many games have ended. The three of them are in a position with a large leaf that can cover their bodies.
The defeated girl came to the east to sit. Her shoulders drooped, trembling slightly, and her face was filled with fear.
"The next is a match between Amao and A Ying."
The boy began to shout at the girls on both sides again. Looking at the eyes of the girl named A Mao, it was like the shiny look when a cat saw a mouse. The girl named A Ying seemed to have eaten a lot of cakes and had a pair of attractive **.
In this game, you can tell the outcome at a glance. The moment A Ying's ** hit A Mao's head, A Ying was pushed into the boy's lap.
"Amao won."
The winning Amao also got a big rice ball and sat with the girls who had won just now.
The three of them were shocked by the scene that appeared at this time, and they even wanted to go out and talk to some people there, but before this strange game was completely over, they gave up their plans for the time being.
Finally, after waiting, the competition finally ended. At this time, a woman behind the boy suddenly stood up and said, "In the turbulent times of the Warring States Period, women must also protect their families."
"yes!"
"Don't forget that today's winners will be my guard in the future."
"yes!"
"To have a strong child, first of all, the mother should be strong and not be a weak person."
"yes!"
"Okay! It's over today."
The woman's words made Maeda Taki and Shimaki look at each other in surprise. They had never heard such words before. And Ah Song, behind them, even more eyes lit up and looked at the woman who suddenly spoke. She saw that the woman stood tall and stood tall. Although her face was as windy as the wind, her eyes were bright and white, and her face was beautiful.
In fact, the woman in front of the three of them was the only daughter of Jiro (that is, Naoto Ii in history), the lord of Iiya Castle and Inamori of Iiya family.
In history, the Ii family, a native of the Toei country, worked with the Toei guardian of the Spo family to fight against the Imakawa family next door in his early years. However, as the Imakawa family grew stronger and the decline of the Spo family, the Ii family surrendered to the Imakawa family.
Later, after the death of Inamoto I, I, Naomoto I, had no male subordinates, so I, Naomoto I, was succeeded by Naomoto I, the 23rd generation of the Ichi family governor. At that time, Naomoto Ichi family's father, was slandered by Ono Daogao Ichi family's elder, and was suspected of plotting rebellion and killed by Yoshimoto Ichi family. Therefore, Naomoto Ichi family fled to Shino area. Although he returned to the Ichi country and succeeded as the family governor, he was once again suspected of plotting rebellion by Mama Ichi family in 1562. This time, it was Daogao's son Daogao.
In the end, Ii Naomi's relatives were attacked by the Akihitota and died. And the Naomasa Akagi Ii Naomasa, who was loved by future generations, was Naomasa's eldest son (Ii Naomasa is one of the four kings of the Tokugawa family in history, but this famous general will not be born until next year).
Master Jiro, the only daughter of the previous generation, was originally scheduled to marry Nao Ii, who was adopted by Nao Ii, but because Nao Ii went to Shino area, the marriage was finally settled. Despite this, Master Jiro never married for life. After Nao Ii's death, he not only adopted Nao Ii's Naomasa, but also followed the name of the governor of the Ii family. Renamed "Natoto Ii". He shouldered the survival of the Ii family on one shoulder. (However, women are not considered a generation in habit. Therefore, the 24th generation governor of the Ii family is still considered to be Naomasa of Ii.)
In 1568, Ono Dao was domineering and forcibly occupied Iniya Castle, which led to dissatisfaction among the Tohoei people and turned against the Tokugawa family. In 1570, with the assistance of Tokugawa Ieyasu, they finally defeated Ono Dao, who was also executed by Tokugawa Ieyasu for his crime of slander. Ino Naoto, who succeeded as the governor of the Ino Ieyasu family, then mediated among the people of the country for the survival of the family and was called "female land" by everyone (the land is the lord). At the same time, they adopted Naomasa of Ino, and finally taught a Tokugawa Four Heavenly King.
The above is the trajectory of Naoto Ii, who was also quite famous in later generations, in this life, with the emergence of the Luo family and the arrival of the Luo family Nobuya, her life trajectory changed rapidly.
Because he was influenced by his father Masaru and was often "bullied" by his sister Miki since childhood, Luo's Nobura naturally had different views on the status of women. So during the period of staying in the Ii family, after getting familiar with Naoto Ii, he quickly spread the stories of "Mulan" and "Female General of the Yang family" that were spread from his sister Miki to Naoto Ii again.
In this era, entertainment programs were very lacking. Under such circumstances, Naoto Ii was naturally deeply attracted by the colorful story of Luo Noburo, and then gradually believed that she could also be a family supervisor and lead the family to survive.
In fact, in this era, as the daughter of a wealthy family who lacks the heirs of male D, the pressure is actually very high. Often, ordinary women can only accept their fate as tools to marry outsiders who will inherit the position of family governor. However, Naoto Ii was a stubborn person from the bottom of her heart. She was originally dissatisfied in her heart. Now, with the arrival of Luo Shi Nobuliang and others, she finally found the answer and the exit, so naturally she became more likely to accept the messages spread by Luo Shi Nobuliang.
And why did Luo Shixinliang do this?
After all, it was to obtain help and even control the Ichi family. From Imagawa Zaneren, Luo Family Nobura and others learned that Imagawa Zaneren's mother was not only a side room of Imagawa Yoshimoto, but also a member of the Ichi family, and even had a relative relationship with Ichi family at this time. It was precisely because of this relationship that Imagawa Zanerenen brought Luo Family Nobura and others here to lurk (this decision was also approved by his father Masaru).
In fact, Noburaro also knew that the sudden arrival of Ichigawa Zangrei did cause great trouble to Ichinamori Ichinamori. After all, the second son of Ichigawa Yoshimoto, who had been missing for a long time, suddenly appeared in his territory and brought a large number of people. If Ichigawa Yoshimoto knew about this, the Ichi family would be in trouble.
Of course, if Naomoto I am cruel to kill his relatives for justice and kill Imagawa Jung-seok without others' knowledge, and then find a secret place to bury him, just as if Imagawa Jung-seok had not come back, this way of handling is the best for the Imagawa Jung-seok, but it seems that it was precisely because of Naomoto Imagawa Jung-seok's plan, so military advisor Kanasuke Yamamoto soon took Imagawa Jung-seok and others away, leaving him and other people including Takahashi Shaoyun stayed in the Imagawa Jung-seok territory.
There are two purposes for the Luo family Nobura. One is to act as "hostages" and tell Ii Naomoto that they have no intention of harming the Ii family. At the same time, they also warn Ii Naomoto not to do stupid things, otherwise Iikawa Jungre and others would not mind showing up on their own initiative and then promote the Ii family as their accomplices.
In fact, Naomoto Izumi was indeed afraid that Imakawa Jungyu would pull his family into the water. This is why he was more willing to secretly deal with Imakawa Jungyu and not kill him in a righteous manner. After all, this was the most tense moment when Imakawa Yoshito was about to go to Luo. Moreover, with Imakawa Yoshito's temper, even if Imakawa Naomoto and others were wronged, Imakawa Yoshito would have a battle of destruction against the Imakawa clan without any hesitation. This can be seen from Imakawa Yoshito's previous murderous move against his relative Naomoto's family.
As for another purpose, it is to hope that Luo Shi Nobura and others can find a breakthrough in the Ii family during this period. And now the breakthrough found by Luo Shi Nobura is Naoto Ii.
According to his father Masaruo's previous speculation, Naoto Ii's father is likely to encounter an unexpected accident on the way to Luo Luo this time. In this way, Naoto Ii's position as the head of the family governor. Even if he cannot inherit, Nobura Luo and others decided to help him inherit the position of the head of the head of the family governor. Then, with the help of the previous relationship between the two parties, the Ii's family became the help of the Luo family's local actions in Tokaido. Moreover, even though Naoto Ii's local father Naoto Ii's position did not have an accident in the end, it was a good investment to be able to establish a good relationship with Naoto Ii's position.
As for the complex calculations in Luo's heart, Maeda Taki family, Shima Zuojin and Assong naturally did not know. They were already shocked by the scene that appeared in front of them. They stood there in a daze, looking at Luo's Nobura, and Ii Naoto got up. Then Maeda Taki family "coughed", left the trunk of the hiding place, slowly walked towards Luo's Nobura and others, and asked, "Can you ask something?"
"What's the matter?" Nobuyaki seemed to have noticed them for a long time, and did not seem frightened, but instead replied with his head raised.
"Is there a young master Xinliang here?"
Nobura looked at Maeda Taki family deeply. Shimazuojin and Assong looked at each other, and instantly remembered the information about the three people that the staff of our intelligence club had previously passed on in advance, so he immediately replied:
“That’s right.”
"Ah? So you are Mr. Xinliang?" A scream of surprise immediately spread from the woods...
Chapter completed!
