The quiet Japanese-style room is clear at a glance, except for a screen embroidered with flowers and birds, there are only couches and low tables.

On the low table is a chess board, on which black and white chess pieces are criss-crossed, and on the other side are colorful and cute wagashi.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi knelt and sat opposite the chessboard, holding sunspots in his hand, peeking at the person opposite from time to time.

Today Matsudaira Ieyasu wore a beige silver-patterned home kimono, and his long hair was tied loosely on the back. He lowered his eyes and picked up the boiling spring water on the small clay stove next to him, and began to cook tea gracefully.

The Japanese tea ceremony has matured and become popular during this period. It is divided into washing tea, brewing, sealing the pot, dividing the cups, dividing the pots, serving the tea, smelling the fragrance, and tasting the tea.

Ieyasu's movements are smooth and flowing, not at all inferior to the elegance and nobility of those self-proclaimed nobles, which makes people unable to take their eyes off.

This is also what he learned when he was a hostage in the Imagawa family in Junfu. After all, this hostage has lived for 9 years, and there are 1 days in a year. If there is nothing to do every day, it will be so boring and empty.

TOEFL, he has now completely become a character with both civil and military skills, and he can be proud of his time-traveling life.

The tea sets are made of top-quality Tang Jingdezhen ceramics, the teapots are made of top-grade purple sand pots, and even the tea leaves are among the best in the country.

Ieyasu would never be such a prodigal. These things were all sent by Nobunaga, and they were delivered once in a while.

The slender and graceful fingers made a requesting movement, accompanied by the rising smoke and fragrance, Kinoshita Hideyoshi subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and sat up straight the moment the other party looked over.

The room is quiet, the tea is fragrant, and the people are beautiful and delicious. It is really a quiet time.

"So, it has been decided to hold a wedding for Deji and Xinkang on the 15th of next month?"

"Yes, it is."

Last year, with the help of the Asai family, Oda Nobunaga officially defeated Mino, changed the main city of Mino to Gifu, and took the meaning of Zhou Wuwang Fengming Qishan, and promulgated "Tianxia Buwu".

Ieyasu only said that he was selling dog meat under the guise of a sheep, and that girl Nobunaga was doing Qin Shihuang's business under the name of King Wu of Zhou.

Not long ago, Ieyasu's only son, Takechiyo Genfu, who was only 8 years old, was preempted by Nobunaga to take away the naming rights, and the above-mentioned direct naming of Matsudaira Nobuyasu was not allowed.

Xinkang split up and combined Xinhekang. As for who and whose name was split up, don't you need to express it?

The important ministers of the Oda family understood this in no time. After all, the dark circles under the eyes of the lord's face from two beatings in recent years are too obvious, and they were all done by the same person.

If there is any delay, looking at Nobunaga's fawning behavior of sending expensive gifts to Sanhe in the past year is enough to understand the truth.

As for Ieyasu, because his lord was too calm, he was deceived to death. It wasn't until Nobunaga arrogantly declared his sovereignty at the gift of Matsudaira Nobuyasu's uniform that he realized that it really fell apart. There are not enough words to describe their sadness.

Due to Nobunaga's popularity, the Emperor Masahino had no choice but to give a verbal metaphor to express his appreciation. Even Ieyasu was given benefits, and his veterans directly changed his surname.

Ieyasu twitched the corner of his mouth and listened to the nonsense of the old ministers and generals—must talk, don't talk nonsense!He checked the ancestry, and it was clearly a descendant of the Fujiwara clan, how did he become a descendant of the Genji clan!

In short, the past two years have been quite lively. The 9-year-old Nobunaga's second daughter, Tokuhime, is about to marry. Kinoshita Hideyoshi uses this as an excuse to come to Mikawa as a guest.

Pinning the hanging hair behind his ears, Ieyasu twirled a white hairpin to play with, and leaned leisurely on the low table, in stark contrast to Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who was sitting upright with his whole body crumpled up and sneaking over from the corner of his eyes from time to time.

"I heard that the Oda Army has a rookie?"

"That man's name is Akechi Juhei Mitsuhide. It is rumored that he once served as an official of Saito Dozo. Later, after the death of the lord, he fled to Echizen Asakura, where he met General Ashikaga who failed to seek help, and then followed him to the Uesugi Clan Takeda Clan. They were all rejected and finally chose our Oda clan."

"Akechi Mitsuhide?"

"He asked the lord to help General Ashikaga Shangluo, but the lord...did not refuse on the spot."

The ambiguous statement and the careful use of words are worthy of Kinoshita Hideyoshi who is rising every step of the way. The art of this language is superb.

"Really?" Ieyasu Tokugawa chuckled nonchalantly, "Mr. Kinoshita, do you know Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms of Ming Dynasty?"

The Japanese side is the Warring States Period, and the Celestial Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty. He does not know the specific period, and the history is not easy for you to understand.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi really shook his head in a daze. In this war-torn era, few people study the history of other families. If you know a thing or two, you can be called everyone.

Baizi was placed on the plate, and Ieyasu slowly revealed Nobunaga's plan, "Take the emperor to order the princes."

Kinoshita Hideyoshi... I don't understand, but the beautiful woman's smiling face makes my heart flutter, so I quickly drink tea to calm down, after all, this beautiful woman has a master.

The following month, Tokuhime and Shinyasu, two children under 10 years old, held a grand wedding. Soon after, Nobunaga took Ashikaga Yoshiaki to Luo, quickly defeated the Liujiao, Miyoshi and Sanyo, and established the Oda regime.

The following year, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who was unwilling to become Nobunaga's puppet, secretly sent him a letter of solicitation, implying that the remnants of the Asakura family, Liujiao people, and Miyoshi had gradually formed a Nobunaga encirclement network, and even boasted Takeda and Uesugi are also interested in joining.

Ieyasu saw it funny, and sent the letter to Nobunaga with the letter intact, and reminded him to be careful of Asai, Asakura's ally.

Nobunaga's reply was quick, and he was invited to visit the Asai clan, the reason was to see how his younger sister, Ashi, was doing.

Ieyasu, who has no ability to predict, set off for Oguchi Castle, the main city of the Omi Asai Clan. This trip became a dark history that he will never erase in his life!

The patriarch of the Asai Clan, Nagamasa Asai, looks quite...a pseudonym, if it wasn't for the heroic spirit gained from fighting on the battlefield, she would be a pair of beautiful sisters standing with the beautiful Oda City.

At this time, Ashi had already given birth to Asai Nagamasa with one son and three daughters. The couple was harmonious and friendly, and Asai Nagamasa himself admired Nobunaga very much. Zheng, to show his favor for Nobunaga.

Looking up and down, looking left, right and looking at the Asai family with no dead ends and no signs of betrayal in this way, Nobunaga was quite relieved, and Ieyasu also said that he was meddling and thinking too much.

After a good night's sleep, Jiakang found that all his clothes had disappeared, and what was replaced beside the bed was a set of gorgeous and complicated beautiful women's clothing, including hairpin jewelry, rouge and gouache.

Unfortunately, Ieyasu, who knew it in seconds, turned dark, and there was a maid outside reminding him to go to the hall as soon as possible to attend the party hosted by Mrs. Ashi, referred to as the women's dress party.

— Mouth!Is this bullying him for not bringing his hands down! ?

After two seconds of dead fish eyes, he pressed the cross on his head, wrapped a dark purple outer skirt around his body, and rushed out the door with a gun in his hand.

Thanks to the pajamas called obscene clothes in ancient times, which were too conservative, there was no possibility of them being exposed at all, and besides, in today's society, there are all kinds of people wearing anything that can blind people's eyes, so he doesn't mind that he is so disheveled.If he hadn't clearly known that there was a girl like Ashi watching the fun outside, he wouldn't even be able to wrap up a skirt, so he couldn't scare the girl with his underwear.

The hall is still the same as yesterday, there is no possibility of getting lost, and all the subordinates have been sent away except for the occasional one or two serving servants.

Ashi, who was dressed in a pink petal kimono, leaned sweetly on Asai Nagamasa who had changed into a bright orange dress. Nagamasa lowered his head and blushed a little bit shyly, but he seemed to be accustomed to it. The wife slave was so worthless that he wore women's clothes several times to make his wife happy.

Nobunaga, however, was dressed in a black-and-blue singlet, with his usual unrestrained style. Fortunately, he didn't do his hair this time, so as not to misidentify his gender.

As for him, he didn't even feel any embarrassment, so he drew his sword out of its sheath and pointed it at Nobunaga.

"Fight!"

Nobunaga readily agreed, and drew his sword to fight. The two moved around from time to time as they fought. Accompanied by the beautiful long sleeves of women's clothing, it was really like a pleasing sword dance.

The two fought from the hall to the garden, and finally ended in an oolong accident - Ieyasu stepped on the hem of his long skirt in order to dodge, and a Nobunaga who was unsteady and helped him roll into a ball on the ground .

Rolled to the end and rolled back to the bed in the bedroom. The poor Ieyasu not only missed breakfast, but also missed lunch. He was so tired and hungry that he didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

The development of the matter to this point has long been out of Ieyasu's surprise, but the first time is born and the second time is acquainted, isn't it just multiple bed partners, a man understands all instincts, as long as he can feel good.

The days passed smoothly, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki's actions against Nobunaga were so obvious that they could not be ignored. Nobunaga couldn't bear it anymore, and ignored the Asai clan's request not to fight the Asakura clan's treaty with Wu, and launched the attack at the Asakura clan who was jumping the most. Offensive.

Just as the war was advancing step by step to Kanazaki Castle, Nobunaga received adzuki beans with tape tied at both ends from Ashito, and the clever Kinoshita Hideyoshi realized on the spot that Nagamasa Asai had rebelled.

Nobunaga was unbelievable at first, and then he became extremely angry-he had just assured the skeptical Ieyasu not long ago that Asai Nagamasa had no possibility of rebellion, and he was slapped in the face as a result. This feeling-sour!

But first of all, they still have to retreat first. It is obviously not good for the two parties to attack before they can retreat.

Tokugawa Ieyasu offered to join Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Akechi Mitsuhide in the rear, but was strongly opposed by Nobunaga.

Ieyasu failed to convince Nobunaga on the grounds that he was not Nobunaga's retainer and did not need to obey his orders, sighed, and decisively knocked out Nobunaga with a knife.

Facing a group of Oda clan's retainers who almost drew their knives and attacked him, he was very calm, "Aren't you going to withdraw first with your lord?"

Although in the end everyone withdrew to the base camp without any risk, but Nobunaga and Ieyasu, who were deeply angry at Ieyasu's actions, started a cold war that lasted for 2 years.

At the same time, the nicknames of Hattori Hanzo Oni no Hanzo and Tokugawa Ie Yasushi Rayasha began to spread.

It is said that the vassals, allies and enemies who have seen Ieyasu murdered all stand on end. After all, not everyone can cut the enemy in half with a cold and expressionless face, even grabbing the enemy with bare hands and stabbing himself The body's weapon strikes back swiftly.

Because Ieyasu particularly dislikes armor, he is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with his long black hair in a ponytail and his bloody appearance, so he has the title of Mori Yasha.

I don’t know if it was because of comparisons. The next year, Nobunaga threatened to hand over the Hiei Temple that sheltered Asakura Asai, but failed. Regardless of everyone’s opposition, he set fire to Enryaku Temple, the Buddhist holy place on Mount Hiei. The old, weak, women and children were all burned.

After this battle, Oda Nobunaga has completely become a recognized enemy of Buddha, and the default title is the Sixth Heaven Demon King.
