Date Masahiro was irritated about the victims, so he drank two more glasses, his amount of wine was quite good, perhaps because of his mood, he was a little dizzy, so he put down the book in his hand, and wanted to go back to the bedroom to rest, but he never thought that he had just walked out of the study.

The attendant who served him saw Date Masahiro come out, and kowtowed, "Master, the mother of Kuroda Kanbei came to visit, and I have been waiting for a long time!" ”

Zheng Heng was stunned, he never thought that Mrs. Kuroda would come to see him again, which made him a little inexplicable, and at the same time felt a little disgusted, you must know that he had already met once before he went to Miki Castle last time, and now he came again, shook his head, and said, "Well, let her come to the study to see me." ”

As he spoke, he returned to the study, but he no longer had the intention of looking at official business, so he straightened out his official documents, took out the wine he had just hidden, and drank it slowly, while waiting for Mrs. Kuroda's arrival, he drank sake, which calmed his irritable mood a little.

Mrs. Kuroda came to the door, knelt on the ground, and said, "My lord, the concubine came this time to ask for your forgiveness and forgive the concubine's ignorance. ”

There are no three hundred taels of silver here, if Mrs. Kuroda doesn't say it, Masahiro is afraid that she will soon forget about this matter, but Mrs. Kuroda still has to entangle this matter, which makes Masahiro's heart surge with anger, maybe it is because of the wine that makes him a little confused, looking at Mrs. Kuroda in front of him, there is a superposition.

Mrs. Kuroda is actually not very beautiful, but she is also attractive, and Masahiro's eyes are not able to drink because of the arrow wound. As soon as you drink alcohol, you will have a superposition. He actually looked at Mrs. Kuroda in front of him in a trance.

Zhengheng stood up with his wine glass. He walked up to Mrs. Kuroda, spat out a mouthful of wine, touched Mrs. Kuroda's chin, and turned her face towards him. Mrs. Kuroda was frightened, he looked nervously at Date Masahiro, and whispered, "My lord, please ...... again"

Before he finished speaking, Zhengheng didn't know where the strength came from. He threw away the glass, hugged her horizontally, and carried her into the study, where the door was closed, and then placed Mrs. Kuroda across the desk. Zheng Hengyi grabbed her hands.

After a long time, when Mrs. Kuroda's hands were bruised, the wheezing had gradually subsided, and the direct consequence of the strenuous exercise was that Mashiro was drunk and sober. Although his head was still a little foggy, it was indeed much better than just now, and at least his sanity began to recover.

Masahiro let go of Mrs. Kuroda's hand. After arranging his clothes, he pretended to say, "Madam." I know your request, and in the future, I will take care of it as a guard like my own child, and please don't worry about this, Madame. ”

Mrs. Kuroda left Himeji Castle in despair, not daring to tell the story about it, and her eldest son, Kuroda Kanbei, learned that his mother had entered the castle again to see Mashiro, and re-entered the castle to ask for forgiveness.

Zhengheng had just taken Mrs. Kuroda's hand, but he was embarrassed to look at Kuroda Kanbei coldly, so Haosheng was relieved and said some words that it was not easy to be a mother, so that he could take care of his mother. Kuroda Kanbei didn't expect that the lord would not be angry but would comfort him, which made him a little uneasy, but he didn't dare to speak out, so he had to go back and sulk.

When Mrs. Kuroda saw her eldest son, Kuroda Kanbei, not only did not comfort her, but looked at her coldly, which made her lose her soul and even have the idea of breaking the jar. She thought, "How's this going to be?" My lord is the lord of the guard, and now such an ugly thing has happened, and I have to be cautious. What's more, now that Kuroda is all dependent on adults, and now the children don't understand me, if there is no one to take care of me, they will definitely become a wandering warbler pheasant, and it is better to die when the time comes. ”

Mrs. Kuroda is more than thirty years old, no longer a child, married to a wife, and understands personnel early, which is why she is so worried, upset, and sighs secretly. She thought again: "Now the guard has looked at me unpleasantly, but when I return home, my parents have died, and my brothers are greedy and unjust, which makes it difficult for me to be a man, and they will urge me to have another good couple as soon as possible, otherwise it is really a bad thing for a widowed woman to fall into the world." If you live in Himeji Castle and you're already holding hands with adults, you won't be able to support me. If I refuse to give in, I can't guarantee that the adults will not be able to change their anger with a few children, and they will definitely be jealous of me, and it seems that even if I go home or continue to live here, I will not be able to avoid such incidents, and after all, it will only increase infinite troubles. Thinking a lot, I secretly sighed sadly for a while, unable to extricate myself, and couldn't help myself.

Lady Kuroda was dressed in plain clothes, and although her appearance was declining, because of the unusual color of the clothes, she was more flamboyant and beautiful, and she was endearing. Kuroda Kanbei because of her two visits to her father-in-law, although it seems to be fine, but still complained.

In another ten or twenty years, the Black Sky Guards will be able to be happy, but now he is still a young man, and he is very thoughtful about the city, but he also feels sad about his mother's misdeeds, which makes Mrs. Kuroda, who was already in a bad mood, have the idea of becoming a nun.

Zhengheng didn't know that he was holding hands indiscriminately after drinking for a while, coupled with Kuroda Kanbei's incomprehension, so that Mrs. Kuroda had the idea of becoming a nun, but this idea was out of control, and it was deeply rooted in her heart, and she repeatedly spoke to Kuroda Kanbei.

Kuroda Kanbei was depressed and lost his temper in front of his mother, Mrs. Kuroda was completely cold and made up her mind to become a nun, Kuroda Kanwei was a stubborn person, although he was reluctant to open his mouth.

Who would have thought that Mrs. Kuroda had just become a layman and felt unwell, and these things were already a few months later, when Date Mashiro and the Black Sky Guards had already fought for their respective ambitions.

The matter of Mrs. Kuroda is mentioned here, and this matter will later evolve into a series of events, returning to the second day when Masahiro and Mrs. Kuroda held hands, Hosokawa Fujitaka finally came to Himeji Castle under the guidance of the guide, and soon met Date Masahiro for the third time.

Hosokawa Fujitaka was ordered to come, but his feelings were complicated, and on the way, he not only met the victims who were disappointed in the shogunate. I also heard that Date Masahiro was going to clean up Bessho, and that the remnants of Akamatsu were even going to attack the Tamba Kuniqiang, who was taking in the remnants of the Besho family.

The foresight that Akechi Mitsuhide didn't believe in finally had the possibility to come true. The fears of the likes of Yoshiteru Ashikaga and Fujitaka Hosokawa are about to become a reality. How not to worry him. When Hosokawa Fujitaka arrived, Masahiro was as happy as ever.

At this moment, it has been less than four years since the two met for the first time, but they are no longer human. When Hosokawa Fujitaka was ordered to come, Date Masahiro was still just a hero, and now those who were once his enemies have all been swept into the dustbin of history, and he has become the most powerful person in the world, and he is a stone's throw away from the position of the people in the world.

Today's Date Mashow is very different from the Date Mashow of the past, in the eyes of Akechi Mitsuhide. The biggest enemy is not Ishiyama Honganji Temple, but Date Masaki, who has been eyeing him all the time, but Ashikaga Yoshiteru thinks he still has a chance to subdue the one-eyed tiger.

As long as Date Masaki agrees to Ashikaga Yoshiteru's conditions, puts on a cage, serves as the deputy general of the shogunate, sends troops to attack Ishiyama Honganji, and then obediently becomes the shogunate's thug, fighting in the south and the north, there may be a 1 in 10,000 chance that he will be able to die well in the end.

Hosokawa Fujitaka smiled bitterly, how naïve Ashikaga Yoshiteru's idea is, Date Masaki is now the leader of the fourteen countries of the West (counting the two islands of Hidden Ambiguity and Awaji), such a vertical and horizontal yin and yang. Today, he is about to fight out of the western country and be invincible. Could the world-shattering lord be put in a cage by Ashikaga Yoshiteru and become the shogunate's pet? It's a really ridiculous thing.

Akechi Mitsuhide did not approve of Ashikaga Yoshiteru's self-inflicted humiliation, but he did not speak outright, but when he was about to leave the city, he privately told Hosokawa Fujitaka that he did not have any hope, and in his opinion, the two sides had too many differences, and there was no possibility of backing down on each other. In that case, why bother to meet. If you don't see each other or communicate, you can still maintain a little face with each other, and this little face can still play a role at critical moments. When is the critical time, Akechi Mitsuhide did not say it explicitly.

Hosokawa Fujitaka saw a hint in Akechi Mitsuhide's exhausted and exhausted gaze, apparently that when the shogunate army failed, there was still a way to retreat to settle his family. It is very likely that you will tear your face if you go now, and then there will be no way to retreat, and you can only watch your body die and be wiped out.

Hosokawa Fujitaka had to come, he didn't dare to disobey Ashikaga Yoshiteru's orders, but from Akechi Mitsuhide's words, he could already see a hint of something wrong, and now it seems that the Muromachi shogunate, which is in the middle of the trend, is just a sad phenomenon in the pan.

Date Masahiro set up a banquet and introduced them to his retainers, unlike when he secretly received Yorizhao Shimoma, he did an impeccable job in etiquette, but such a grand reception clearly showed the strangeness between the two parties.

Hosokawa Fujitaka has an order to put a cage on Date Masata, if he really feasts in private, and then even if he doesn't agree, it's just a matter between the two, but even if he says it now, I'm afraid that he will immediately be frantically counterattacked by the retainers of the Date family, who have been blinded by Kamiro.

Hosokawa Fujitaka had to talk and say something inconsequential, but he frequently hinted to Date Masaki that he wanted to meet in private. Zhengheng seemed to have no eyes at all, and talked with him very happily, but behind the laughter was deep malice.

Zhengheng was only drunk yesterday and held hands, of course he didn't drink today, but his retainers frequently persuaded Hosokawa Fujitaka to drink, Hosokawa Fujitaka drank a few glasses and pretended to be drunk and fooled around, after the banquet, Hosokawa Fujitaka asked Zhengheng to meet again.

Zheng Heng pondered for a moment, the corners of his mouth showed a slight hint of ridicule, but he agreed, ordered someone to bring him, and after everyone was in place, he said: "Daisuke of the military department, you and I know the general's intentions, and it is better to say less about the things that hurt and anger." ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka heard Masahiro's blunt words and stifled what he wanted to say, and understood that it would really hurt his face if he continued to talk about it, and he was even going to cut off the way to settle his family like Akechi Mitsuhide said, so he sighed and said, "Lord Dazai, I don't know, it's just that the Lord's order is difficult to disobey." ”

Zheng Heng sneered and said: "The general is too naïve, the world is a world of great contention, as small as a family, as large as a country, everything has to be fought for." Those who are indisputable will sooner or later become the food in the belly of tigers and wolves. Only by fighting can there be a chance to survive. The Muromachi shogunate was in turmoil, and the shogunate system established since Emperor Rokuenin Taijo fell apart, which was an opportunity that had not been seen in the world for more than 100 years. Even if I had known your true purpose, I would have fought for it. If you don't fight, you will die, and if you fight, you will die even if you die. ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka never thought that he would say such rebellious words bluntly in front of him, but the authority of the Muromachi shogunate in the current world has long been lost, and anyone can come out and step on him, and he is no longer surprised, but it still makes his face hot.

Zhengheng smiled faintly and said: "I know your purpose, although I don't agree with some of the shogunate's concepts, but as a samurai, sit and watch the temple family sit big, and really let him establish the so-called earthly Buddha kingdom in Kinai, it is really a blow to the face of our samurai, as long as the shogunate can start a war first, we will send troops to stab at the right time, but this knife, I don't know what kind of sincerity the shogunate can show?" ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka had just lost any hope, but now the plot was reversed all of a sudden, which made him puzzled for a while, his heart was full of doubts, and at the same time, his face also showed puzzlement, and said, "What does Dazai Daiji mean?" ”

Zhengheng shook his hand to stop him from continuing, and said: "Judging from the current situation, my Date family must choose one of them, the shogunate or Honganji, in fact, it is the same for all of us, after helping one side defeat the other, we will immediately tear up the covenant and fight for who is the world." Now that Honganji is strong and the shogunate is weak, of course I have to help the weak defeat the strong, and after defeating Honganji, I can also deal with the shogunate calmly, right? You can tell the Shogun everything I just said. ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka was stunned for a moment, he sighed secretly, knowing that the words had come to this point, and there was nothing to say, but getting such a promise from Masahiro was also an explanation for Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and Ashikaga Yoshiki was confident that as long as Date Masahiro was on the set, there was no possibility of unraveling.

Hosokawa Fujitaka took out a letter from his bosom and said, "As long as Lord Dazai Daiji sends troops to fight against the enemies of Buddha, he can be protected by Tanba and Kii, and at the same time become the deputy general of the Muromachi shogunate?" "When it comes to the adjutant general, he really can't go on.

Zhengheng sneered: "Bring this pleadings back, bring back my words, and I will send troops at the appropriate time." (To be continued.) )
