"Your Highness Yuqiu!" "Toyotomi Hideyoshi!"
Yu Qiupei and Kinoshita Tokichiro shouted in unison, the former's eyes almost fell out of surprise, while the latter had a flattering and envious expression.
"You two..." Maeda Toshiie was also immediately startled by the scene, "Do you two know each other?"
"No! This is the first time I have seen His Highness Yuqiu!" Kinoshita Tokichiro was stunned by Yu Qiuping, who was two heads taller than him. Yu Qiuping was pressing Kinoshita Tokichiro tightly.
Shoulders, eyes sparkling, carefully looking at every place on his body, "This...what does this His Highness call...Toyotomi Hideyoshi, did you admit the wrong person?"
"No, I didn't admit my mistake!" Yu Qiuping chuckled, "My name is Kinoshita Tokichiro now, right?" He said while shaking Kinoshita Tokichiro's shoulders, "You are Kinoshita Tokichiro, right! There is no one with the same name!"
"It's... the little one... I'm Kinoshita Tokichiro..." Kinoshita Tokichiro stuttered in reply.
With small eyes, striking ears, high cheekbones, a broad head and a narrow pointed chin, he looks like a Mediterranean at a young age! That’s right! There’s no mistaking it, isn’t this just a living monkey! There’s no mistaking it!
In the future, Kinoshita Hideyoshi, Hashiba Hideyoshi, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi; Kapok Fujiyoshi, a master of internal affairs who is as famous as Yonegorozuo; a master of sieges who killed Tottori when hungry and Miki when thirsty, and flooded Takamatsu without spending a single soldier! The Great Return of China,
The maneuvering genius who returned to Japan; the commanding master who commanded and mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to besiege Odawara; the inspirational genius who, as a pariah, in Japan's hierarchical Warring States Period, through his lifelong efforts, became Japan's supreme leader!
The protagonist of The Legend of Taige!
"Here we go again..." Maeda Toshiie stroked his forehead deeply, "A disease that causes people to go crazy after meeting special people... My idiot brother is not wrong..."
"Yuqiu...His Royal Highness Yuqiu..." Kinoshita Tokichiro was frightened by Yuqiupei's appearance. This was the first time for him, who was 23 years old, to see such a madman. He even doubted whether this was the independent governor.
, it was a young and talented man who had ambushed Tongzhao. However, the Hongye shawl on his shoulders seemed to indicate that this person was the Yuqiu Hongye.
Yu Qiuping, who had been intoxicated with the excitement of meeting historical celebrities for a long time, finally came to his senses: "I'm sorry, I lost my temper before!" Yu Qiuping waved his hand and apologized, "This is the first time we meet in Yu Qiuping. Please give me your advice in the future."
After that, he couldn't wait to reach out his hand to shake hands with Kinoshita Tokichiro - this was more exciting than shaking hands with future stars!
"This! This! This!" Kinoshita Tokichiro was suddenly frightened by Yu Qiuping's actions, as if the hand Yu Qiuping stretched out was a hot iron rod. He jumped sideways repeatedly to avoid the hand, refusing to cooperate.
Yu Qiuping shook hands, "This! How dare you, a young man! I'm just an ashigaru! How dare you shake hands with His Highness Yu Qiu!"
"What's the point!" Yu Qiuping frowned, "You are my eldest brother's friend, then you are my friend." Yu Qiuping understood that Kinoshita Tokichiro's future future was limitless, and for the purpose of revenge, she and him
It is very necessary to have a good relationship, and you can also use his growth to make profits for yourself in the future. "When dealing with official matters, it is the same, but in private, is there anything wrong with shaking hands and becoming equals? You are much older than me.
Woolen cloth!"
"That's right," Maeda Toshiie said from the side, "Why are you dawdling, Tokichiro, you look a bit like a samurai! We are all brothers in private, so where are there so many rules? Don't do it one by one. Don't show off too much!"
Under the gazes of Yu Qiupei and Maeda Toshiie, Kinoshita Tokichiro stretched out his hand tremblingly, as if a timid kitten stretched out its paws, and quickly placed his hand on Yu Qiupei's palm, and then quickly
He pulled his hand away, very unnaturally. A moment of excitement and desire flashed in those small eyes.
"Fujiro," Yu Qiuping said with a smile, "I'm new here, and I don't know much about Owari and the situation of our Oda family. Can you give me a general introduction?"
It is said that the best compliment is to treat someone as a teacher. Apparently, Kinoshita Tokichiro also liked this trick. After a few shirks, he started talking with great joy.
"We originally had several Oda families in Owari, and they have been fighting each other for decades! But since our governor took over, it didn't take long to almost pacify the entire Owari family! Except His Highness Inuyama, who is located in the northeast! Although
That Highness married the sister of our Governor, and we have always stood together, but I always feel that that guy never got along well with the Governor."
It has to be said that Kinoshita Tokichiro's political sense is really accurate. Even though he is only a poor young man in his twenties, he can't explain why. But he has been able to observe the mood through the few contacts with Oda Nobukiyo.
, we can see the contradiction between Oda Nobunaga and Oda Nobukiyo. Uakihei, who knows the history, deeply agrees with his speculation, but Maeda Toshiie looked nonchalant and muttered a few words "nonsense" and "monkey mouth".
No ivory can come out of it."
"Externally, our Owari's biggest enemy is the Saito family in the north." Kinoshita Tokichiro snorted, "Those Mino guys have been against our Oda family since the death of Mr. Dozo!"
"Originally, if the Imagawa family didn't come over, we would have thought about attacking Mino." Kinoshita Tokichiro glanced at Yu Qiupei quickly, and found that the latter's expression was as usual, so he continued with peace of mind, "Now our family is under control.
Owari's land of nearly 400,000 koku is not afraid of those guys from Mino."
"But when it comes to our Oda family, we are not so united." At this point, Kinoshita Tokichiro frowned, and Maeda Toshiie also snorted coldly and cursed, "Old men." Kinoshita Tokichiro puffed out his cheeks, very surprised.
He said dissatisfiedly: "They are probably divided into two factions."
"On one side are those great samurai men who have been important ministers of the Oda family for generations, and some of them are even former retainers of the Shiba family." Kinoshita Tokichiro said with his monkey eyes, and it seemed that he was usually angry, "For example, Shibata
His Highness, His Highness Sakuma, His Highness Sasa, His Highness Kawajiri, His Highness Hirate, they are always arrogant, but because of their seniority, their noses are turned up to the sky, and they feel that they should listen to everything.
!Tch." When Kinoshita Tokichiro said these words, he deliberately emphasized the word "Your Highness" very strongly and pronounced it strangely, trying his best to be sarcastic.
"And, those of us are the ones," Kinoshita Tokichiro and Maeda Toshiie looked at each other and continued, "Or we are like His Highness Toshiie..."
"Just call me Inuchiyo. Don't call me Your Highness by calling me the same as those old immortals!" Maeda Toshiie interrupted dissatisfiedly, and Kinoshita Tokichiro immediately changed his words with a smile on his face.
"Either they are warriors like Inuchiyo, Lord Naomasa, Hengxing, and our most powerful Lord Nagahide, who were promoted by the lord from his recent training. Or they are like Lord Mori, Lord Takikawa, and so on.
Your Highness Yuqiu..."
"Just call me Momiji." Yu Qiuping also imitated Maeda Toshiie and interrupted.
Kinoshita Tokichiro also borrowed Poxiadonkey, and he obviously enjoyed being in the same league with people with higher status: "Yeah! There are also people like Hongye who come from other places to join the family governor. Those of us who are students and you who come from other places are
We usually have a good relationship with each other, and we often get together, so we can be considered the same faction, and we don’t have much trouble with those His Highnesses."
"What I'm not dealing with is that they're unhappy!" Toshiie Maeda cursed and then changed the topic, "But it didn't turn into a civil war between the two factions, which is different from the serious one like your Imagawa family. Everyone was divided into two groups.
People drink and brag."
"But those old highnesses from Owari always look down on those of us who are from the academy, and often exclude those from other places," Kinoshita Tokichiro muttered dissatisfiedly.
"With the exception of His Highness Hayashi," Maeda Toshiie added with a tilt of his neck, "After His Highness Hirate committed seppuku, he is considered the oldest. But he is usually quite aloof and doesn't care about things and doesn't care much about us."
"That's it..." Yu Qiuping roughly understood the situation and chuckled, "So, I'm in your group!"
·
At Amakihei's request, Takigawa Kaede allowed Tokiwabi to head to Seiju Castle on the road, and the Saji family's ship also returned the same way. In order to make Imagawa Kaede a little more comfortable, Maeda Toshiie lent him his carriage.
Yu Qiuping calmed down and asked Imagawa Kaede to sit in the car.
The group of people began to head north, and not long after, they entered the territory of Narumi City, and the sky became dark. Tokiwabei's men began to camp on the spot next to a village, but Yu Qiuping was unwilling to give up his body.
The bad Kaede Imagawa lived in the wilderness, so he ran to the village with Maeda Toshiie and Kinoshita Tokichiro to see if they could find a fellow villager to spend the night. In the evening, there should have been many pedestrians on the street. But at first glance
When someone approached, these people all retreated into their houses.
"Folks!" Kinoshita Tokichiro walked to a densely populated area and shouted in Japanese with a strong Owari accent, "His Highness's wife is pregnant and I want to find a place to stay for one night. Does any fellow villager have a vacant room?"
Ah! This is your blessing!"
After saying that, Kinoshita Tokichiro turned around and explained in a low voice to Yu Qiupei: "However, the people in this village are very poor and not very hospitable. They are quite afraid of our Oda family. Usually when samurai pass by, everyone will hide. And they estimate that
There will be no ample houses. In the end, we will forcibly requisition one, and no people will dare to resist. I will just shout casually, don’t take it seriously." Obviously, he was worried that no one would pay attention to him.
, it was extremely embarrassing, so I agreed in advance to prevent myself from losing face - I am really a face-loving person.
