"Lord, the young lord used a trick to trap the four ninjas who were secretly protecting him today, and when the retainer Fukushima Masanori left, he is now missing, and he asks the lord to decide." This time, it was not Hikoemon who came to report, but Ishikawa Goemon himself who spoke.

At first, after receiving the report, he only thought that this was just a prank by the young master, so he ordered people to look around Gaoshan City, but he couldn't find it after looking for two hours in a row, and he already had a bad premonition in his heart, so he hurriedly reported to the lord.

The clan couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this, his first thought was that he was afraid that the hostile forces would take Gentaro away, and then threaten his family, but after thinking about it, now Hida can be described as an iron bucket, and there is Fukushima Masanori by his side, it is not so easy to take it away.

When the clan was at a loss, I saw Hikoemon walk in quickly, saluted and said, "My lord, when I was cleaning up the young master's living room, I found a letter that said that it would be handed over to the lord and the lord himself, and his subordinates would report it to the lord. ”

"Bring me the letter." The clan unfolded the letter as quickly as possible, only to see that it read:

Father, the child felt that his vision was insufficient, so he decided to take his retainer Fukushima Masanori out to practice, but I was afraid that my father would not allow it, and my mother would stop me, and after marrying Tamako, I am afraid that it would be difficult to make such a decision, so I made this special decision, and I hope that my father and mother will forgive me, and I will explain to my father-in-law and Tamako the new idea of Xinsheng. If Yuzi is willing to wait for the child to return, and ask the father and mother to take care of it, when the child returns to the city, he will not disappoint her with a piece of true feelings. Fathers and mothers don't have to be reluctant. After all, the child has to be disappointed first.

The child may not be able to return in a short period of time after going out for training. I just ask my father and mother to take care of their health. Children will also be cautious, and parents need not worry. When the child is finished, he must be filial piety.

The child Takayama Gentaro Nobukatsu bowed down

After the clan saw this letter, he didn't know what to say, but at this moment, Sakura had already walked in quickly, and the clan knew what she was talking about, so before he could speak, he handed her the letter left by Gentaro.

After Sakura saw it, she only heard her say, "Husband." Gentaro is still young, if there is chaos today, if there is danger, it will be difficult for him and Fukushima to deal with it, Sakura asks her husband to send someone to find him immediately. ”

"Ishikawa Goemon, quickly bring someone to get Gentaro back."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Wait, Sakura-chan, don't you understand Gentaro's intentions, even if you find him, you won't be able to stop him from running away next time, so it's better to let him go out and break through."

"But Gentaro is still ...... young"

"Ma'am. Gentaro is not wrong, how can the descendants of my Takayama clan live under the wings of others forever. I'm going to see if it can make a difference. Speaking of this, he only listened to the clan order: "You don't have to send someone to find Gentaro, retreat." ”

"Husband, why are you so cruel to Gentaro?" After everyone left, I only heard Sakura crying and talking over and over again.

"Madam, it's not that I'm ruthless, but in the future, Gentaro has the responsibility of inheriting the family business, if he is cowardly and incompetent, then the family will only want Saito and the Imagawa clan to perish, is this the result that Madame wants to see?"

"But the husband can wait for him to grow up and order him to go out to practice, why do you want to do it at this time?"

"Actually, Mrs. is too worried, Mrs., please think, if today, although it seems to be war-torn, but in fact it is very stable, now the lord has actually dominated the world, and my Takayama family is even more prestigious, once someone finds out that Gentaro is the son of my Takayama clan, then there are only two possibilities, the first is to want to get close to the power of the Oda family, and will definitely send someone to send a letter to show friendship, and the second is the hostile power, I am afraid that it will not be killed, but as a bargaining chip, At that time, the family will only need to pay some price to keep Gentaro worry-free, as for those bandits... Fukushima Masanori is here, and Madame still has something to worry about. Besides, Gentaro also has a general understanding of the power of the world, so how can he go to the place controlled by those hostile forces. ”

Seeing that Sakura hadn't agreed yet, the clan had no choice but to speak again: "Madam, there is no absolute security in this era, even if I am the same, I may encounter danger at any time, so Madame doesn't have to worry, with Gentaro's strategy is enough to save the day." ”

After the clan said a lot of words, Sakura stabilized her mood, although her worry about her son did not decrease at all, but she also accepted this reality, and she began to think that what her husband said did have some truth. Fujun was not much older than Gentaro back then, so he went out to practice by himself, and martial arts are still so commonplace, and now he can create such a family business, she is confident that Gentaro will definitely not be worse than Fujun.

"Husband, Gentaro is now gone, but Lord Akechi is still in Takayama City, and the team to send off relatives has already left half of the way, if this matter is not handled well, I'm afraid the Akechi family will definitely not give up."

"I can't do anything about this matter, now I can only look at the intentions of Lord Wise and Tamako."

……

The matter couldn't be delayed, so after seeing Sakura's mood stabilized, the clan went to the place where Akechi Mitsuhide was staying and explained to her. And after hearing the news, Wise Guangxiu couldn't help but be completely dumbfounded, after all, now that the family sending team is about to arrive, the groom suddenly disappeared, if this matter is known to outsiders, then Wise Family will not let others laugh off their big teeth.

Wise Mitsuhide said on the spot: "If Takayama-sama thinks that Tamako is not worthy of Genzaburo, you might as well say it directly, I am wise Mitsuhide is not high, but now that the family sending team is on the way, the world knows about the marriage of the two families, at this moment Gentaro left suddenly, where is the face of my wise family, Takayama-sama, you must give me an explanation for this matter, otherwise I will be wise Mitsuhide will never give up!" ”

Wise Mitsuhide's attitude, the clan has long been expected, it can be said that this is much better than the start he thought of, after all, if he had changed to Wise Mitsuhide, he would have met in battle a long time ago, and the samurai in this era still attach great importance to reputation. As long as Akechi Mitsuhide doesn't do anything, then everything is still to be discussed.

"Yes, yes, what the wise lord said is that it is all in the negligence of the teaching, the rebel son will break into such a catastrophe, and all the mistakes are the fault of the bottom, as long as the wise lord can forgive, no matter what the price is paid, he will agree to the next." Speaking of this, I heard the clan Zong You hurriedly say: "Oh yes, the rebel left a letter before leaving, and asked the wise lord to look at it." "The clan said it over and over again, and scolded in his heart over and over again, a rebel, a rebel, since you came to this era, you have never been so low-voiced, and this time you have completely lost face for you.

Wise Mitsuhide quickly browsed the contents of the letter, and after reading the letter, the anger in his heart disappeared a lot, this is only because, as soon as he learned about it just now, he thought that the Takayama clan looked down on his family after obtaining Shinano, so he acted like this, but after reading the letter, he realized that there was a reason for the incident, and the letter made it clear that Gentaro was still willing to marry Tamako, but he first wanted to go out to experience it, not to regret his marriage. This letter should not be fake, after all, the Gaoshan Clan Sect has no reason to let this matter continue to be consumed.

After reading it, Akechi Mitsuhide calmed down a little and said, "Lord Takayama, I know the matter, don't say anything about compensation, let's think about what to do now." ”

Seeing that his attitude had eased, the clan couldn't help but feel relieved, only to hear him hurriedly say: "Wise lord, this matter is not without remedy, although the marriage has been decided, but after all, the marriage date has not been decided, and the invitation has not yet been issued, if the adult and Yuzi agree, then this matter will be delayed, and the world will not have any opinion." If the adults and Tamako are unwilling to wait for Gentaro to return, then the wise adults can propose to the family to withdraw from the marriage, so that it is my Takayama clan who will lose face, and the impact on the wise family will not be great, I wonder what the wise adults think? ”

Speaking of psychological terms, Wise Mitsuhide definitely doesn't want to get out of the marriage, after all, the Takayama family is getting stronger and stronger, so once the marriage is married, the wise family will also follow the rising tide, especially in the Oda family, who doesn't give themselves three points of thin noodles at that time, if it is once the marriage is withdrawn, then although the Takayama clan says so now, but in the future, it will definitely turn against each other, so it will be worth the loss, but Wise Mitsuhide still has some humanity, especially out of love for his daughter, so he has no idea for a while.

Seeing that Akechi Mitsuhide hesitated, he only heard the clan sect speak: "Since Akechi Lord can't make a decision, it seems that it is better to send someone to ask what Yuzi means, what do you think." ”

"Well, as your lord says." Wise Mitsuhide didn't have much to do now, so he had to say helplessly.

The people sent by Akechi Mitsuhide soon met Tamako, and the answer they got undoubtedly made Akechi Mitsuhide breathe a sigh of relief, and also made the clan feel relieved, Tamako asked someone to bring the words very simple, that is, she was willing to wait, no matter how long it took for Gentaro to return.

And since the send-off procession has already set off, it is impossible to go back, so although the groom is not there, they still have to send the bride to Takayama Castle. Although Tamako stayed, there was no point in staying at the moment, so soon after Tamako arrived, he returned to Sakamoto Castle.

And when Takayama Nobukatsu went out to practice, the Tokugawa family received from top to bottom that when the family sent troops to Kai, the Takayama family would not send troops, this news was enough to make the Tokugawa family happy, even if the family won the two countries of Yuanjiang Suruga, everyone was not so happy, after all, once Kai was captured, then the family will no longer be subject to others, maybe there is a chance to be anti-guest-oriented. For the Tokugawa family, Kai is of much greater strategic significance than Toe Suruga, and as long as this step is taken, then the family is equivalent to a dragon swimming in the sea.
