Matsudaira Motoyasu didn't stay long, although he really wanted to be by his mother's side and fulfill his filial piety. www.biquge.info But obviously, it is impossible to take Yu Da away, and he must return to Okazaki to deal with the next things. The submission of the Oda family is just the beginning, and there are still many things to deal with in the future.

And Sena, too, met the girls under the introduction of Yu Da. It's just that when they learned that Sena was Matsudaira Motoyasu's wife, and Matsudaira Motoyasu recognized Oda Yoshinobu as his father, the eyes of the girls looking at Oda Yoshinobu were strange. Rao is Oda Yoshinobu's face is comparable to the city wall, and in the end he couldn't help but flee.

Mino, Inabayama Castle.

Saito Ryuko was immersed in various case files, and a young man with clear eyebrows was assisting him. His name is Takenaka Hanbei, and he is the person who Saito Yoshiryu asked for from Mamoru Ando for Saito Ryuxing before he died. In fact, although Saito Yoshiryu said it very well at that time, his only purpose was just to use this hand to appease the families he had offended back then.

Although those families have been quiet all these years, who can guarantee this after his death? You must know that in order to eliminate Saito Michizo's lineage, he killed a lot of people.

Not far away, Mamoru Ando and Michitoshi Nagai sat there constantly flipping through the case files handled by Ryukyo Saito, which was assistance and supervision. After all, Saito Ryuxing has just inherited the Saito family, and he is only 13 years old this year, although he is quite calm these days, but the family governor is not calm and can be done.

The young Saito Ryuxing, even if he has been carefully taught by Saito Yoshiryu and various important ministers since he was a child, he is not a genius after all, and even if he is a genius, he needs time to develop his talent. In fact, in the hearts of Mamoru Ando and others, Saito Ryuxing's expression these days can be regarded as a qualified household governor at most.

But qualified...... This term, which was acceptable in the past, in today's situation, cannot satisfy Mamoru Ando and others. Because there is a powerful enemy that is on the move, and that is the Oda family. Although there has been no movement from this enemy yet, Mamoru Ando believes that Oda Nobunaga will never let go of such a good opportunity.

So, the question is, will Saito Ryuko be able to block the Oda family's attack like his father and grandfather? Hawkers, at least in the eyes of Mamoru Ando and others, he doesn't have that ability yet. But fortunately, there are also generals such as Hibino Kiyomi and Inaba Ryotsu at home, and with Mino's strength, I believe that it should not be a big problem to block the invasion of the Oda family. What's more, there is also the Imagawa family? Mamoru Ando and others didn't believe that if the Oda family really attacked Mino with all their might, the Imagawa clan would really watch it.

A flurry of footsteps came, and Ando's brow suddenly furrowed. At this time, they are handling government affairs here, which is something that everyone in the family knows, but the people who came are still so flustered...... Mamoru Ando had a very bad premonition.

"Whoa!" With a bang, the door was directly opened, and everyone in the house looked up, only to find that it was not broken. Without waiting for everyone to say something and want to ask, he just said loudly, "Oh no! The Matsudaira family has surrendered to the Oda family! ”

"What?!" Mamoru Ando stood up in shock, "This can't be!" Mamoru Ando roared angrily, "The Matsudaira family and the Oda family have a feud!" How could it be so easy to take refuge in the Oda family? And it's still a submission?! What about the Imagawa family? Isn't there any movement?! ”

"Lord Ando, this matter is absolutely true, and I heard that Matsudaira Motoyasu also recognizes Oda Yoshinobu as his father......" said Fukumitsuji stammered. Although he inherited the family governor, he was praised by many as the Simino Four. But in fact, whether it is status or ability, he is only 28 years old, and there are still many places that need to be studied by Mamoru Ando. Usually, it is mostly the posture of juniors to face Mamoru Ando, but now he is furious when he sees Mamoru Ando, how can he not panic?

"Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! What about the retainers of the Matsudaira family? Could it be that he just watched Matsudaira Motoyasu give all the foundation of the Matsudaira family to the Oda family?! Mamoru Ando said angrily. There is no way, if it is not the truth that Koji is said, then with the Matsudaira family helping the Oda family to resist the Imagawa family, the Oda family can attack Mino with all their might. And this is what Mamoru Ando absolutely does not want to see.

"Okay, it's better to think about how to deal with the attack of the Oda family in the near future, rather than talking about these useless things. Besides, the lord is still here......" Michitoshi Nagai stood up and persuaded as he reminded in a low voice.

Hearing this, Mamoru Ando instantly calmed down, and hurriedly turned around and bowed in front of Saito Ryuxing and whispered, "My subordinates were rude just now, please atone for your sins!" ”

"Keeping it is also for the sake of our family, what is the crime? What's more, I was also frightened by the news of Koji just now~" Saito Ryuxing said lightly, but his expression couldn't show joy or anger.

This appearance made Nagai Michitoshi on the side nod with satisfaction, and then said, "Lord, my subordinates think that they should call all the important ministers over to discuss countermeasures at this time." ”

"Hmm." Saito Ryuxing nodded in response, and soon after, Inaba Ryotsu and others rushed over.

"So, guys, what do you do about it?" Saito Ryuxing didn't ink, so he asked directly.

"My lord, since this matter has become a fact, then my subordinates believe that the family should find allies to deal with the Oda family." Mamoru Ando, who had calmed down, said respectfully.

"What Ando-sama said is good, and my subordinates think that they can choose Omi's Asai family." The clan Naoyuan on the side echoed.

"Asai family?" Saito Ryuxing repeated in a low voice, but unfortunately he didn't have much impression in his mind.

Perhaps seeing Saito Ryuxing's somewhat confused expression, the Takenaka Hanbei beside him explained in a low voice, "My lord, the Asai family was a vassal of the Rokkaku family before, and some time ago, the newly recognized Asai family governor Asai Kenmasa publicly announced that he would no longer recognize the Rokkaku family as the master, and then defeated the Rokkaku family in the Battle of Norada and recaptured the territory of Jiangbei. ”

After a pause, Takenaka Hanbei said with a twinkle in his eyes, "However, the lord's father has jointly attacked the Asai family with the Rokkaku family before......" His volume was extremely low, and only the two of them could hear it. Hawkers, although in this case, this does not prevent everyone from guessing the facts, but this makes Saito Ryuxing very face-saving.

"Hmm...... You can give it a try, Hanbei, and I'll leave this matter to you. Saito Ryuxing was silent for a moment before he said to the Takenaka Hanbei. Hawkers, as a family governor, he naturally has to cultivate his own lineage first, and Takenaka Hanbei is now a lineage retainer for him.

In this regard, Mamoru Ando and others did not object, but continued to discuss how to defend the Oda family.

On the other side, Suruga Sunpu Castle.

Imagawa really glared angrily at the little surname who was kneeling in front of him tremblingly, this person was one of his favorite little surnames, but obviously, this favor was not enough to save him from the real anger of the Imagawa clan.

"Rubbish! Rubbish! One woman and two babies! You guys couldn't find it even after looking for it?! The Imagawa clan roared angrily, the three of Sena's mother and son had disappeared for several days, but after such a long time, they still couldn't find any news. How does this not make the Imagawa clan really angry? You must know that Sena disappeared in the castle tower of Sunpu Castle!

What is a castle tower? It was the residence of the daimyo and the most heavily protected place. Although for some reason at that time, the ninjas and guards guarding the shadows were hiding in the distance, but even so, it is impossible for the three big living people to disappear in vain, right? And what made him angry or frightened the most was the person who kidnapped the three Sena. Since he can quietly take Sena, he can naturally also quietly take away his own life.

This kind of thing, for any daimyō, is unbearable. So on the day that Sena was found to have disappeared, all the ninjas and Koshi who were in charge of guarding that night were executed.

For the Imagawa clan to be really angry, the little surname knelt on the ground but couldn't say a word, because he really couldn't find any trace of it. Just when he was worried about his life, a ninja suddenly appeared in the shadows, "Your Highness, I've found Sena's mother and son." ”

"Where?!" Imagawa said coldly.

"In Nakono Castle! Matsudaira Motoyasu subdued the Oda family and sent Sena's mother and son to the Oda family as hostages......" the ninja said in a deep voice.

Matsudaira Motoyasu ...... Good! Good! Okay very! The Imagawa clan said through gritted teeth, and then waved his hand, the ninja and the little surname left in an instant, they didn't want to stay here any longer, God knows if the Imagawa clan would suddenly pull out a knife and cut them?

"Bastard!" When the two left, Imagawa really pulled out a knife and slashed around, precious calligraphy and paintings, and precious tea bowls turned into garbage in an instant.

After a long while, Imagawa Shincai gasped and stopped, "Call Changzhao over!" Imagawa really shouted. After a while, the pelican hall Changzhao rushed over, and was shocked when he saw the scene in the room, but he could only walk in.

"Lord ......"

"Changzhao, Matsudaira Motoyasu that kid surrendered to the Oda family, and Sena's mother and son were also rescued by him and sent to the Oda family as hostages." Imagawa Shin didn't seem to see the fear of Uden Nagatorio, so he found a clean place to sit down and said casually, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

"What?!" Uden Nagasho was stunned, because the Imagawa clan really didn't publicize the abduction of Sena's mother and son, so no one knew about it. However, he immediately reacted to the seriousness of this matter, and if he didn't handle it well, he was afraid that it would cause turmoil in his family.

"Lord, the most important thing now is to invite Master Shougui Ni to shock the ministers of the family, and we must not let the incident of the Matsudaira family happen again!" The pelican hall said quickly.

"Hmm." Imagawa nodded and then sent someone to invite Shou Guini over. Although he was a little unwilling, he had to admit a fact, that is, the most prestige and appeal of the Imagawa family today is not him, the governor, but the nun Shouguini.

After the herald's surname left, the Imagawa clan and Uden Nagazhao began to stare at each other, and for a while, neither of them knew what to do.

How so? For the Imagawa clan, his original purpose was not to start a war with the Oda family, and to exchange a short period of forbearance for the Imagawa family's recovery time. So from the beginning, the Imagawa clan was really forcing the Matsudaira family to rebel. But the opportunity that appeared afterwards made the Imagawa clan really proud to control the Matsudaira family, and since this was the case, he naturally would not plan to force the Matsudaira family anymore.

But now that the Matsudaira family has subdued the Oda family, although the Imagawa clan is really faceless, but in general, the poor and weak Matsudaira family today cannot pose any threat to the Imagawa family, and the goal of the Oda family is definitely the Saito family. The goal was still achieved, but the Imagawa family's face couldn't get by.

In fact, there is a very simple way to solve this problem, and that is to go to war. It's just that this thought just came to mind, and the two of them shook their heads almost at the same time. It's not that they're afraid of war, it's that the Imagawa family can't afford to fight at all. On the one hand, it is because the Imagawa clan's control over the Imagawa family has not reached a very high level, and on the other hand, in recent times, the attitude of the Takeda family has become more and more ambiguous.

Just as the two were pondering, Shou Guini finally came.

"Grandma."

"Lord Shouguini!"

"Alas~ you two, when can you save my old bones a little bit?" After Shou Guini sat down, the first sentence left the Imagawa clan speechless.

However, Shou Guini didn't pay attention to the two of them, she knocked lightly on the desk, and said to herself, "I already know the matter, don't pay attention to the Matsumatudaira family, with their current strength, they won't have an impact on the family in a short period of time." ”

"As for the rebellion of the Matsudaira family, someone must be responsible...... Well, let's let Sekiguchi take this responsibility. Since he was promoted by Yiyuan, he has not made any real achievements, and he has used this to knock those old guys who are fishing in troubled waters,"

Shou Guini's tone was very flat, but it made the two Imagawa clans shudder. In just one sentence, the fate of Sekiguchi Qinaga was decided, you must know that this is not a small fish and shrimp, in the Imagawa family, the status of the Sekiguchi family is very high, and the power in the far river is also very large.

"Lord Shouguini......" The chief of the pelican hall opened his mouth to say something, but before he could say it, he was blocked by Shouguini's next words.

"I know that the Guankou family's power in Yuanjiang is not small, but this time we must use thunder means, otherwise there will only be more and more rebels. Well, in this way, hasn't Michiyoshi Ono, a retainer of the Ii family, been reporting on the matter of Ii's direct relatives? Find a reason to make Ii nao affectionate. Shou Guini didn't give the Imagawa clan a chance to speak at all, and kept talking about various measures. Hawkers, in a word, thunder means to deal with, those who are not convinced, kill! Well, the old lady is quite murderous.
