"I'm going, it's really dangerous! It's scary!"
Ikeda Hengxing, who pulled Yu Qiuping out of the ditch, was so frightened that his face turned pale and his lips were trembling. Yu Qiuping, who was lucky enough to escape, took a deep breath when he saw the tragic scene on the mountain road.
Matsunaga was blown to pieces, and his flesh and blood were mixed. Even the place where the tea banquet was just had a small crater - God knows how much gunpowder Matsunaga put in the flat spider tea cauldron.
"How did you know that his tea set contained gunpowder?" Ikeda Hengxing pointed to the guards of the Yu Qiu family who were surveying the explosion site, and said to Yu Qiuping in disbelief, "If you hadn't reacted quickly, before he blew himself up,
He jumped into the ditch next to him, and the guards are probably collecting your body now."
Because in his previous life, Matsunaga Hide blew himself up while holding a flat spider tea cauldron filled with gunpowder, so all Shinno Bar friends called him "Bomb Man".
Yu Qiuping complained silently in his heart, but said: "It just didn't feel right at the time, so I subconsciously hid."
"I really saved my life." Ikeda Hengxing patted Yu Qiuping on the shoulder with lingering fear, "Let's go, take the items that can identify his body and your letter to see the lord, so that the truth can be revealed."

On the evening of September 28, the star-studded Yu Qiu Shang finally arrived in Kyoto and asked for a meeting outside Honnoji Temple where Oda Nobunaga was staying. Unlike the treatment received by Yu Qiupei and Akechi Mitsuhide when they came to ask for a meeting, Oda Nobunaga not only did not let Yu Qiu Shang
Wait, but strode to the door of the temple by himself.
"I've seen the main hall." Yuqiu Shang was surprised when he saw Oda Nobunaga coming to greet him in person, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "Ieyan is trapped in Yamato and cannot come in person. I will come to the main hall in the next generation.
, to show the unchanging loyalty of the Yuqiu family. All the previous incidents were all Xiaoxiao's plan to sow discord. I hope the main hall will take notice."
"What is there to be aware of? Is there anything that needs to be observed clearly?" Oda Nobunaga smiled disdainfully upon hearing this, leaned against the pillar at the entrance of Honnoji Temple, and knocked on the door with his hand, "Your father has been with Yu for more than ten years, Yu Bi
You kid also need to get to know your father. He is not the kind of person who will act according to the prevailing circumstances and will not rebel."
Yu Qiu Shang was shocked again when he heard this. He raised his head and looked at Oda Nobunaga with some surprise.
"Now that the public opinion is fierce, it is not me who should be aware of it, but your father and the people of the world." Oda Nobunaga smiled and took out the folding fan from his waist and knocked hard on Yu Qiu Shang's forehead, "Why should you worry?
Will Nobunaga Yu doubt him? Even if Yu wants to kill him, it will be because he made Yu angry. If he doesn't listen to Yu, it will definitely not be because he is treason."
"Let's go." Oda Nobunaga took a bold step, walked out from the guards alone, and walked towards the Yuqiu family's entourage, "I will personally go to your Yuqiu family's military camp to see who dares to cause chaos.
What a nonsense!"

On September 29, Oda Nobunaga actually went to Maple Leaf Mountain Castle, the home city of Yuqiu's family, alone without the protection of his bodyguards to show his trust and attitude towards Yuqiupei. Oda Nobunaga's move immediately made everyone
All the rumors in Kinki claiming that Amakihei was about to rebel, and that Oda Nobunaga was about to attack Amakihei, were self-evident. All those who spread the rumors instantly lost their voices, and the Oda family's army also resumed its offensive in all aspects. Under the reinforcements led by Oda Nobutada
With the support, the Uesugi family's reinforcements retreated due to supply problems. It took Shibata Katsuie many years to finally conquer Oyama Gobo in Kaga Province, expel the Ichikou clan forces, and began to march towards Noto and Etchu areas.
At the same time, Yu Qiupei also rushed to Maple Leaf Mountain Castle with the body of Matsunaga Hide and met with Oda Nobunaga. The news that Matsunaga Hide committed suicide instead of rebelling against Yu Qiupei was also made public. The people of Yamato and the Matsunaga army were still resisting.
In an instant, they dispersed like birds and beasts, and all except Matsunagamichi surrendered to the Oda family.
Yu Qiuping breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Yu Qiu Shang - it seems that Matsunaga's previous threats were just pretentious. Yu Qiuping still doesn't understand why Matsunaga showed up alone on the road to meet him? Could it be that he has a special intention?
Are you sure that Yu Qiuping will definitely rebel?
After the rumors of Uaki's rebellion were dispelled, Oda Nobunaga immediately ordered Kitahata Nobuo, Kawajiri Hidetaka and other people who suspected Uaki to apologize to Uaki in person. The Oda family's army joined forces and attacked and killed Matsunagamichi, completely
Yamato was pacified. And the territories of those Japanese who surrendered and revolted were also changed by Oda Nobunaga in large numbers. It was logical that the Oda family's own banner was transferred to Yamato. According to Uakihei's request, Oda Nobunaga
By allowing Congress merchants to trade and recruit labor in Yamato, Yu Qiuping has fulfilled his promise to Congress.
After suppressing Yamato, the Oda family's army pounced on Iga in a mighty manner. In order to deal with the guerrillas of Iga ninjas, Oda Nobunaga ordered a bloody scorched earth strategy. The entire Iga country was razed to the ground, and the Iga ninjas
Forced to surrender, Oda Nobunaga took Iga as his own. The mastermind of this battle, Momochi Santao, had long since escaped, while Fujibayashi Yasutoyo was injured and captured.
·
On October 12, in the dungeon of Iga Ueno Castle, Fujibayashi Yasutoyo, who had been tortured for many days, received a new interrogator. His face had been swollen from the beatings, and he could not even open his eyelids.
. He had no intention of opening his eyes. Anyway, the Iga ninja was finished. He had told all the information he knew. If the fight continued, he would not be able to say anything else. What was waiting for him was death after endless pain.
However, this time the interrogator was a little strange. He neither lectured nor beat him, but stood silently in front of him. Fujibayashi Yasuyo, whose hands and feet were tied, raised his head with difficulty and raised his eyelids with difficulty.
, saw the person in front of me——
They hadn't seen each other for twenty years, and he had changed a lot, but Fujibayashi Yasutoyo still recognized that person at a glance - his former right-hand subordinate Fujibayashi Aooka, now named Uchiha Aooka, the famous ninja leader of the Uchiha family.
"Are you here to seek revenge?" Fujibayashi Yasutoyo smiled contemptuously. There were already many ninjas who had their families destroyed by his assault on their wives. He never thought that one of them would one day stand in front of him to seek revenge. "Hurry up.
Let’s take action.”
"You don't need to push me." Uchiha Aoka himself didn't know why his mood was so dull at this moment. He had hated the man in front of him for twenty years, and had imagined countless times that he could take revenge on him and use all kinds of torture to make him live.
It would be better to die. But when he actually came to him, he actually no longer felt angry.
"You can still be patient! Coward!" Fujibayashi Yasutoyo was irritated by Uchiha Aooka's plain tone. He who was originally hopeless actually struggled violently and cursed: "Are you still a man?
?My mother-in-law was fucked, but I didn't do anything about it! Even if you were targeting your child in her belly, you shouldn't be so mean! Now you are arrogantly seeking revenge? Hmm? What about that time?"
"Ah?" Uchiha Aooka was stunned when he heard this. His brain stopped functioning in an instant, so that he didn't know how much time had passed before he hurriedly asked: "What did you say? Child?"
"Tch, don't you know?" Fujibayashi Yasutoyo coldly snorted and spat fiercely on Uchiha Aooka's face, "That mother-in-law of yours, if it wasn't to protect the child in her belly, how could she have committed herself to this life?
Me? I’m afraid I’ve committed suicide long ago!”
"Even women have the courage to resist, but you don't? A coward!"
Women are inherently weak, but mothers are strong.
Uchiha Aooka clenched the shaky kunai in his hand.
I couldn't protect them, but luckily I still have something to protect them.
His Highness's peaceful and prosperous age, and the carefree women and children in that peaceful and prosperous age.

At the same time, Ame Qiupei and Oda Nobunaga stood side by side at the top of Iga Ueno Castle.
"Hongye, what's the matter with you?" Oda Nobunaga glanced at Yu Qiupei on the left side of him, and asked with a smile, "Why are you so worried that I will suspect you of treason? Are you like that?
Can’t you believe it? Or is there something wrong with you in your heart?”
"My lord, you are joking." Yu Qiuping paused for a moment, and finally decided that it would be okay to speak directly, "Didn't my lord say before that he was trying to impress the master? This time the enemy's alienation plan is so powerful, everyone in the Oda family is deeply aware of it.
If you are trapped in it, you will naturally feel worried."
"The Master of Great Skills and Shock is just trying to scare you. Do you think you can really 'shock' me?" Oda Nobunaga laughed wildly after hearing this, and put his hands on his waist, "Yu Xiang is gone."
You, what happened in three months, why do you shock the Lord?"
"Ah?" Yu Qiuping was confused by Oda Nobunaga's attitude, and looked at Oda Nobunaga in confusion.
"I have been betrayed so many times in my life. Since the death of the old man, no one has treated me sincerely. I have been betrayed by my younger brother, my elder brother, my uncle, and my cousin."
, I have been betrayed by my vassal, by important ministers, by my teacher, and by my sister-in-law. Even the sister I loved the most since I was a child cannot say a word to me now." Oda Nobunaga shook his head and sighed with some regret, then
A lonely look rarely appeared on his face, "In these troubled times of the Warring States Period, there are not many good people. How can you walk in the world without keeping your eyes open?"
"After so many years, Yu Ziwen has learned how to read people." Oda Nobunaga slowly turned around and slowly made a fist with his right hand in front of his face, "I can also tell which people are good people and which people are traitors.
Be clear."
"Life lasts only fifty years, but I have a will in the world, so I have to race against time." Oda Nobunaga curled his lips and stared at the back of his right hand, "So no matter whether you are a good person or a traitor, as long as you have talent, you must do it for Yu.
What I want is those who can follow in my footsteps. I don’t want anyone who can’t keep up, no matter how loyal they are.”
"And you are a rare and talented person. I know that if you retainers want to do something, it is inevitable that your achievements will shock the master. But if you say that I don't care about your full wings, it is impossible.
.So, occasional beatings are unavoidable. Don’t worry about small things.” Oda Nobunaga laughed twice, then hit Yu Qiupei’s chest with his right fist and said, “As long as you do it well for me,
I won’t doubt you, so don’t worry.”
"What's wrong? Don't you believe it?" Oda Nobunaga saw Yu Qiuping's somewhat stunned expression and couldn't help but joked, "How about I send one of my sons to be your hostage?"
"Hahahahaha..." Yu Qiuping was amused when he heard this. This time, Oda Nobunaga's unreserved trust in him during the crisis really moved him. "My lord, you are joking. I understand."
