"Aren't all the big bosses in Sakai Town that...member of the Diet? They are also members of our Yuqiu family. Why are they selling iron cannons to bad guys?" Yu Qiucen was stunned for a moment and spread his hands in confusion.
road.
"Master Amano said that those businessmen have always been profit-seeking traitors. As long as it is for money, they are willing to do anything and have no moral bottom line." Yu Qiuyou mentioned the Congress, and his tone became contemptuous, "I have been with them.
After such a long time, I have seen their true colors. They only have money in their eyes, they only think about making money all day long, and they have no shame."
It's no wonder that Yu Qiuyu was under house arrest in Sakai Town as a hostage for so many years. It is impossible not to have any hatred for the businessmen of the Congress.
"Not to mention selling iron cannons to Zahe Zhong, Genlaizhong and Honganji Temple." Yu Qiuyou shook his head and sneered, "Even if a ninja wants to buy iron cannons to assassinate his father, as long as the price is high enough
, those merchants will sell it without fail."
"What are you talking about? Bah, bah, bah!" Yu Qiucen frowned when he heard this, and scolded in a low voice angrily, "How can you say such a thing!"
"Bah, bah, bah, okay?" Yu Qiuyou reluctantly obeyed for the sake of his sister, "But none of those businessmen are good!"
"How did Brother Yuji know about the merchants in Sakai Town selling iron cannons to the enemy?" Naoe Touhei put a few more pieces of meat into his mouth and asked while chewing, "It should be confidential information, right?
I have no idea."
"Hehe, of course it is." When Yu Qiuyou heard the word "confidential", he immediately laughed a little proudly and glanced at Chacha secretly, "Most people don't know about this. Let me tell you, you
Don't talk nonsense."
"Is this intelligence from the Crow? Lord Amano told you?" Naoe Nobuei immediately heard the mystery from Yu Qiuyou's words. Because the intelligence organization of the Crow has always been independent of the command system of the Yu Qiu family, and only reports to Yu
Qiuping's responsibility is different from that of the Military Intelligence Department.
"Hehe." Yu Qiuyou laughed twice proudly after hearing this, "This is the news that Ya got from lurking inside the Congress. Over the years, there have been people not only in the Congress, but also in the Miyoshi family, the Maori family, and everyone.
There are secret lines in the Zaga community and even Honganji Temple, and some people even sit in the position of generals. Multiple sources of information confirm that it must be the Diet secretly selling iron cannons to hostile forces."
"This information is top secret. How can the Second Young Master leak it at will?" Naomasa Ii became nervous as he listened. He stood up quickly and opened the door. He checked around the outside of the house and made sure that no one was there before returning to the house. "Just in case.
The news leaked..."
"What kind of top secret is this? There are even more top secrets." Ii Naomasa's look as if he was facing a formidable enemy actually stimulated Yu Qiuyou's desire for expression, making him feel that the information he had was so important that he could not help but whisper with some pride.
, "As far as I know... maybe what you said before, that our Yuqiu family wants to attack Kii, is just a cover, and the real target is Sakai Town."
"Did Amano-sama even tell you these things?" Naoe Nobuhira, who had been laughing and joking, was also shocked when he heard this.
"I am the master's proud disciple. I usually help him with many things. Why can't you tell me?"
·
Almost at the same time, Yu Qiuping was having a secret conversation with Amano Keitoku in an apartment in Maple Leaf Mountain City. The ninjas surrounded by crows were on guard to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
"How's the infiltration of Kii going?"
"Your Highness, just rest assured. The Military Intelligence Division and Crow entered through two systems. The Secret Service's agents and ninjas are all exposed, and many of them are used to expose and paralyze the people of Kii Country." Amano Keidei lowered his voice.
He replied, "And Crow's people are using hidden lines. In cooperation with some people who have been lurking in the Suzuki family and Tsuda family in the early years, they have been sending out intelligence and topographic maps continuously."
"Okay." Yu Qiuping nodded simply and asked about the topic he was more concerned about, "What about the Congress?"
"Your Highness is referring to the matter of the Congress secretly secretly using iron cannons?"
"Yes." Yu Qiuping's expression became more serious, "Quan Bingwei, didn't Crow notice the signs that Congress was secretly selling arms a long time ago? Why didn't you go and knock it before? Now the lord's ninja
We have already mobilized in large numbers. It will only be a matter of time before we find out the connection between the National Assembly and the Honganji Temple, and then we will be in trouble."
Amano Keide did not answer, but stared at Yu Qiuping silently. Yu Qiuping just looked at Amano Keide for a moment and understood what he was thinking.
"Do you want to borrow my lord's hand to beat the Congress?" Yu Qiuping asked.
"Yes. Otherwise, the businessmen of the National Assembly would not be so happy to approve your highness's request for the budget for the expedition to Kii." Amano Keidero replied in a low voice.
"They want us to quickly kill all the people who bought their iron cannons, so that they will die without any evidence." Yu Qiuping chuckled twice after hearing this, and understood why such a high proportion of Yu Qiuping's proposals were approved in this meeting of Congress.
Troop budget. In the past, when troops had to be dispatched during busy farming periods, Yu Qiuping had to persuade enough people to vote for it.
"I also spread the news through multiple channels, saying that we are gathering all the troops this time not to attack Kii, but to attack Sakai Town."
"Is this news? Have you communicated with Congress in advance?"
"We have obtained our understanding. Don't worry, Your Highness." Amano Keitoku replied in the same calm tone as before.
"Okay." Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly when he heard this. He didn't know whether the communication in Amano Keide's mouth was coercion or persuasion. "Anyway, as long as it can paralyze Jiyi."
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back first. Today the staff will conduct a war game on the third set of plans to send troops, and I want to be there." Yu Qiuping stood up from his chair as he spoke, and saw Amano Keide
After I had nothing else to say, I was ready to turn around and leave.
However, just when Yu Qiuping walked to the door of the room, Amano Jingtoku's deep and hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind him. The crow on his shoulder also suddenly let out two low calls.
"Your Highness."
"What's wrong?" Yu Qiuping turned his head in surprise.
"I apologize for overstepping my bounds, but there is something I have to remind Your Highness." Amano Keidero lowered his head slightly, hiding his face in the shadows.
"We have been friends for many years, so it's okay to just say it." Yu Qiuping waved his hand and sat down again, holding the table.
"Please stay away from Mrs. Ashi, this will bring you trouble."
Amano Keidei was very direct, but said in a low voice for no reason.
"Ah?" Yu Qiuping was confused by the sudden words, "What do you mean?"
"Literally." Amano Keide replied calmly.
"Kwon Bingwei, what are you thinking about again?" After thinking for a moment, Yu Qiuping understood what Amano Keide was implying, "Aichi is Nagamasa's widow, and I will not have any inappropriate thoughts about her under any circumstances.
"
"Not now, but not necessarily in the future. Your Highness is soft-hearted, but Oda-den is a man with a heart of stone. If you make an issue out of this, the Yuqiu family will never have peace."
"Is it such an exaggeration?" Yu Qiuping frowned and whispered with slight dissatisfaction, "Quan Bingwei, Ah Shi is just a weak woman."
"Mrs. Aichi is a weak woman, but Oda-den is not. If His Highness and Mrs. Aichi get too close..." Amano Keitoku paused, without any hesitation, but said directly, "Oda-den is very likely to
Mrs. Ashi will marry His Highness. When the time comes, His Highness may not let Mrs. Ashi come over as his concubine, so Mrs. Feng can only be his concubine. And now the young master has been recognized by many retainers and soldiers of the Yuqiu family, and his status is as stable as Mount Tai. If Zhi
After Mrs. Ashi became His Highness's wife, Tian Dadian asked Mrs. Ashi and His Highness's son to be his heirs. What should His Highness do? This will definitely lead to chaos and internal strife in the Yuqiu family. If nothing else, Zhuzhong
Your Excellency will definitely not agree to the appointment of a young master."
"My lord, that's not the case..." Amano Keide's explicit analysis made Yu Qiuping feel his scalp numb, and he defended in a low voice with a sense of luck.
"Ms. Kaede is a girl from the Imagawa family. How could the lord not have any scruples in his heart? Would he be willing for the next heir of one of the most powerful families to be born to a woman who harbors hatred for the Oda family?" Amano
Jingde took a deep breath and continued in a low voice, "Your Highness is not the only one who is in a similar situation. His Highness Tokugawa is also facing this problem. His wife is also a woman from the Imagawa family. The heir to the Tokugawa family is also facing this problem.
She was born to a woman who harbors hatred towards the Oda family. Does Your Highness really think that the Oda Palace will not do anything?"
Amano Keide's serious tone and unquestionable look made Yu Qiuping feel a chill - he couldn't help but remember that every time Amano Keide gave such a solemn warning in the past, it would often come true. Because this man always used
The keenest eye, watching all possible dangers in the darkness of the Yuqiu family. In the history of Yuqiupei's previous life, Oda Nobunaga did do similar things - he used the excuse that Mrs. Tsukuyama had an internal connection with the Takeda family.
, ordered Tokugawa Ieyasu to execute Mrs. Tsukuyama, who was born in the Imagawa family, and Mrs. Tsukuyama’s son, Tokugawa Nobuyasu—the current young master of the Tokugawa family. After thinking of these terrible histories in his mind, Yu Qiupei could not help but shudder.
"I understand." Yu Qiuping nodded solemnly, "I will be careful."
Amano Keitoku sighed. However, he also knew that according to His Highness's character, it would be unrealistic for him to leave the widow of his best friend and brother behind. It was good that he could realize this problem.
"There's one more thing." Amano Jingde gave Yu Qiuping another blow in the depressing atmosphere.
"Not only does His Highness need to stay away from Mrs. Ashi. His Highness should also pay attention to the relationship between the Young Master, the Second Young Master, and Asai Chacha."
"It's just kids playing house." Yu Qiuping understood what Amano Jingde was referring to, but for the sake of inner peace, he still reluctantly argued.
"That is also a girl who harbors a deep hatred for the Oda family. She is the orphan of Asai Nagamasa." Amano Keidei broke Yu Qiuping's fantasy with a cold voice, and directly said what Yu Qiuping was thinking in his heart, "
If both young masters get too close to Chacha, even if the Oda Palace doesn’t want to interfere with the Yuqiu family’s heir issue, it won’t be able to help it.”
"I understand." Yu Qiuping nodded somewhat heavily, then stood up and left. When he walked to the door, Amano Jingde gave his final advice in a low voice.
