Volume 7 Jiangnan Green Looking Maple Red Chapter 104 for help
After running around for a while, Yu Qiucen was finally let down. After she calmed down, she realized that dozens of ninjas had gathered around her.
"This is..." Yu Qiucen frowned and looked at Uchiha Aooka, who immediately bowed respectfully and replied in a low voice, "Your Majesty, Princess, the people below are all Military Intelligence and Crows who are unwilling to participate in the coup.
There are many ninjas out there. In addition to me, there may be many others who have left the team, but we cannot be contacted."
"Then why did you come to rescue me?" Yu Qiucen asked after pondering for a moment, "Is there anything you need me to do?"
"To be honest, I happened to be passing by by chance and came here after noticing something strange happened in the Naoe family's residence." Uchiha Aooka did not hide the intention of claiming credit, but said very frankly.
"What about the current situation of my brother and my mother?" Yu Qiucen asked anxiously.
"His Royal Highness and his wife seem to have escaped from the tunnel reserved by the castle tower to the Nancheng area, but the specific location is still unclear." Yamai Rokuro, who was familiar with the inside story, stepped forward and reported to Yuqiu Cenhui, "Amano-sama and Sanada
Your Excellency has mobilized all ninjas to search for their whereabouts. Many of these stragglers didn’t understand what this operation was going to do at first, but now they understand.”
"Then can we go out of the city to ask for help? Let my husband and the Hongye Army come back quickly." Yu Qiucen couldn't help but become anxious when he saw this.
"No, the people who blocked the four gates are the cronies of Amano-sama and Sanada-sama. They are the ones who are determined to support the second young master. They will not let us out, nor will they let the news get out." Uchiha Aooka.
He poured cold water on them very coldly, "Unless we can gather all the stragglers together, there might be a chance of a rush, but it's obviously not possible. However, not long ago, His Highness and his wife had lit the castle tower warning before evacuating.
, Nirvana Bei has probably received the news and is rushing back. Even if Amano-sama and Sanada-sama block all news channels, such a major event cannot be hidden, and the Hongye Army is expected to return soon."
"So we must not let my brother and my mother be found before then, right?" Yu Qiucen, although still not completely recovered from the shock, had gradually regained his senses and confirmed in a low voice.
"That's right." Uchiha Aooka couldn't help but be surprised by the princess's quick response, "But the problem is that we don't know where His Highness and Madam are hiding, so we can't help."
"I don't know where it is, isn't it just right?" Yu Qiucen's eyes flashed when he heard this, and his expression looked like that of Yu Qiuping and Imagawa Kaede, "If you can't help, you can always add to the trouble!"

"How is this going?"
On June 9, the tenth year of Tianzheng (1582), at dawn, Sanada Masayuki, who came to inspect Nancheng in person, was a little confused by the chaos in front of him. The originally orderly streets were now in chaos, and countless residents walked
They took to the streets, moved their furniture out of their homes and blocked the road, set up various roadblocks, and even lit fires everywhere. Whenever someone dressed as a ninja tried to get close, they would be attacked indiscriminately.
"The people in the crow have been found out. After the princess ran out, she united with the ninjas who left the team to encourage the citizens, saying that we would hunt down the eldest son.
and my wife. Originally, the commotion at night made people panic, and the rumors of their walk spread extremely fast, and now everyone in Nancheng knows it." Amano Kyoude and Yu Qiuyou also rode to Nancheng.
, explained to Masayuki Sanada, "So many citizens spontaneously took to the streets to protest the search and protect the eldest son and his wife. We have limited manpower, and we have to block four gates and carry out intelligence blockades at various passes within the territory. We can invest in the search."
There are even fewer people. If there are so many people resisting, the current search work will be unsustainable, and it may not be possible to find him even if he searches for a month."
"Damn it...it's all my fault for wasting time..." Yu Qiuyou was very annoyed at this moment and punched his thigh hard, "How come there are so many mobs making trouble here..."
"They are not a mob, they are all followers of the First Lord. It is your father's kindness for more than ten years that makes these usually honest people willing to take great risks and take to the streets to protect the wives and children he left behind."
Amano Kyoude raised his hand and pointed at the excited and shouting people in the street, and said to Yu Qiuyou meaningfully, "This is the power of people's hearts. Your father is a great person, and he has always been the one I respect the most."
people."
Looking at the simple and angry faces and the crowds packed in the street, Yu Qiuyou fell into silence.
Because what he is trying to seize the throne and overturn is his father's New Deal for more than ten years, which has been supported and loved by countless people. When he comes to power, will he still be loved by the people like his father?
Are so many people willing to take to the streets for him?
"Then what should we do now? It can't be delayed like this. Nirvana Bei is probably coming back soon. The paper can't contain the fire. It won't be long before the Red Leaf Army receives the news and returns." Sanada Masayuki reined the horse to Amano Keitoku's place.
While taking it, he smiled bitterly and said, "Master Amano must have an idea, right?"
"I have sent invitation letters to all the wealthy families in Hanoi, Izumi, and Kii who want to return to their ancestral system, explained to them our difficulties, and asked them to immediately bring troops to Maple Leaf Mountain Castle to support, otherwise the coup will fail. Also give
The businessmen in the Congress sent a letter, asking them to come to Maple Mountain City with their people to help." As he spoke, Amano Jingtoku looked at Yu Qiuyou and asked in a deep voice, "There is one more thing I want to trouble the Second Young Master. Please.
Explain to Oda-den that our situation is critical at the moment. Without support, we may not be able to control the eldest son and his wife. Please ask him to immediately send all the forces that the Oda family can mobilize within the Yuqiu family's territory to Maple Leaf Mountain City to support us. This opportunity cannot be missed.
, if you lose it, you will never get it again, so hurry up.”
"What does Master mean by this?" Yuqiuyou was confused by Amano Keide's words, "How can there be the power of the Oda family in the territory of the Yuqiu family? You are referring to His Highness the Oda Letter Bag of Minami Kii and so on.
Relatives? They have led their troops to Kyoto a long time ago, and now there is no one left in the territory."
"No. Over the past ten years or so, the Oda family should have infiltrated a lot of talents into the Yuqiu family. They are spread across various families and various parts of the administrative system. There should also be many insiders hidden in Maple Leaf Mountain City. They can mobilize a lot of people.
We have the power to help us check out large residential areas." Amano Keitoku urged urgently, "We don't have enough manpower now, and one more person can greatly improve the search efficiency. Success or failure depends on this, so we must have Oda Main Hall's
help."
"I got it, I'll do it now." Yu Qiuyou nodded, turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Amano Jingde again.
"Originally, my plan was to capture the eldest son and his wife and ask the lady to personally order the transfer of the position of family governor from the eldest son to you, but now this plan obviously does not work. We have made such a big fuss in Maple Leaf Mountain City
If there is any news, we will be questioned by various cities and ministries after dawn. We must have a title before then and legitimately declare that you will be the new family governor."
"Where can there be such a title? Let the lord announce it?" Yuqiuyou thought that Amano Keidek wanted to add this content to his letter to Oda Nobunaga.
"This is necessary, but it is not enough. Only the order of Oda Hall cannot convince the people in the territory. We also need a person who is highly respected in the territory, the people, and the wealthy families." Amano Keide's eyes gradually converged and became sharp.
Get up, "And that person is now in Maple Leaf Mountain City."

On June 9, the 10th year of Tensho (1582), before sunrise, Hatakeyama Takamasa was surrounded by Crow's ninjas at the main court in Maple Leaf Mountain Castle. Amano Keitoku and Yu Qiuyu personally knocked on the door and shivered in front of them.
The court guard issued an order to see Hatakeyama Takamasa.
"I didn't look for you, you all came to the door on your own. What happened last night, do you think I haven't noticed yet?" Hatakeyama Takamasa, who was nearly sixty years old, strode out of the door after hearing the news.
He yelled at Amano Keide and Yu Qiuyou in an old tone, "You are treasonous! You are complicit in a foreign coup, and you are punishable by execution! Even if you find your way back immediately, you will still be punished by death."
!”
"Your Highness Hatakeyama is joking." Amano Keitoku sneered twice and shook his head indifferently, "Without the First Master, do you really think that this stage-like court can have any meaning? Please come with us.
.We have no interest in embarrassing the elderly, and please don’t embarrass us.”
"What do you treacherous officials and traitors want to do?" Hatakeyama Takamasa scolded fiercely.
"Ask the guardians of Hanoi and Kii to draw up a document and order that the duties of guardian of these two countries be given to the son of the former lord, Yu Qiuyou, and also express his attitude of supporting him as the new governor of the family." Amano Keitoku briefly stated,
But it only caused a burst of ridicule from Hatakeyama Takamasa.
"Dream, thief! Do you still want to get righteous status from me? It's a bit of an idiot's dream! But since you all came to find an idle man like me, you obviously failed to control the eldest son and his wife! The Red Leaf Army will be back soon
, you have no choice but to surrender!" Hatakeyama Takamasa laughed loudly and taunted Amano Keitoku and Yu Qiuyu. Yu Qiuyu's face turned red and white after being scolded, but Amano Keitoku's expression remained the same.
"Take it and take it away." Amano Keitoku waved to the ninjas behind him, and those ninjas immediately swarmed up, grabbed Hatakeyama Takamasa, pushed him and walked out the door.
"I swear in the name of the chief judge that I will not violate the law even if I die!" Before being escorted out of the door, Hatakeyama Takamasa turned his head and shouted to the trembling retainers and judges in the court, "
None of you here are allowed to betray the law! All of you, please stick to your duties! Otherwise, I won’t let you go even if I go to hell!”
