The third husband of Momochi gritted his teeth and did not dare to reply. She couldn't understand why Mitsuhide Akechi could be so arrogant.
She committed a heinous crime, and the Lord will definitely deal with her when he comes back. Seeing her crime exposed, she should be terrified.
How dare she? Why does she dare? So calm. Before he figured out the key, Bai Di San Taifu was unwilling to speak again.
Seeing her silence, Akechi Mitsuhide turned to ask Fujibayashi Mukuro on the side.
"Fujibayashi Muku, have you read this confession?"
Teng Lin Ming kowtowed to the ground and said.
"You know, I don't know anything about the affairs you entrusted to Fujibayashi Xing, and I don't want to read any confessions."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded with satisfaction, pointed at the third husband of Momochi and cursed.
"Look, this is a sensible person!
Bai Di San Taifu, let me ask you, apart from you, who among the ninjas under your command has read this confession? "
Sweat began to form on Baidi San Taifu's head, and she felt something was wrong.
"I completed the interrogation alone, and I was the only one who read the confession. I dare not pretend to be someone else's important task entrusted by the Lord."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded.
"Quite sensible.
What you need to know, you need to know. Don't know what you shouldn't know. "
Bai Di San Taifu tried a sentence.
"Then should the Lord know?"
Akechi Mitsuhide gave her a meaningful look and said.
"Of course my lord knows everything. Even if you don't know, someone will tell you."
Akechi Mitsuhide's words that the master knows everything sounded like a thunderbolt in the ears of the third wife of Baiji, and the cold sweat seeped out from behind and wetted his underwear.
Bai Di San Tai Fu suddenly noticed a blind spot in her thinking, that is, she had always thought that the Lord sent her back to investigate because the Lord was deceived and needed to know the truth.
But if no one wants to hide it, and the Lord sends himself back, just to have another channel to verify the authenticity of the information, what does that mean?
What Akechi Mitsuhide did was under the direction of his master. Or maybe the master is helpless when facing the truth.
Regardless of which of the two possibilities the truth is, the Kyoto Incident and the general's murder are too deep.
Baiji Santaifu was confused for a moment. She couldn't believe that her kind and righteous master could be the mastermind behind the Kyoto Incident.
As the leader of the ninjas, she knew very well that there had always been an undercurrent within the Shiba family that strongly opposed the Azulispo merger.
If the Lord did not know about this matter, but the important officials of the Shiba family conspired to kill him first and report later, the Lord would not be able to liquidate Mitsuhide Akechi.
Pull out the radish and bring out the mud. Who knows how much dirt is hidden behind it? The Lord cannot afford the mess he has to face after clearing out the entire senior leadership of the Sporian Territory in recent years.
Therefore, it doesn’t matter whether the master knows it in advance or not. At this time, let him understand the cause and effect of the whole thing, and Akechi Mitsuhide will not be afraid.
When Momochi Santao looked at Akechi Mitsuhide's elegant smile again, he subconsciously turned away, not daring to look directly at her.
Her little idea of taking the opportunity to bring down the Fujibayashi family was like a child's play compared to the turbulent undercurrents in the Shiba family and the big conspiracy of important ministers to conspire to kill the general.
Akechi Mitsuhide was amused when she saw the third husband of Mochichi was so frightened that he was helpless. Of course she was not afraid that Shiba Yoshigan would come back to settle the score with her.
First, Shiba Yiyin needs her to complete the plan of occupying the magpie nest. Spo's information has been divided, and there is no turning back when the bow is fired.
Second, when it comes to killing the general, except for Katsuhisa Nizi, no one in the top management of Sibo Leader has been clean in recent times. Even the two allies of Hosokawa Mibuchi were brought into the ditch by Hosokawa Fujitaka.
If the law does not punish the public, what can Spo Yiyin do? Tear down the entire Kinji Shiba Territory to avenge Ashikaga Yoshiteru?
This involves the third point. The Spo family's reputation has been ruined. How will they survive in the future?
Regarding the death of the general, few ministers, powerful local factions, and recent famous figures were innocent. Akechi Mitsuhide's actions were tacitly approved and even coordinated by all parties.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru wanted to centralize power and restore the feminine style of the Ashikaga Shogun family. Everyone's interests are being damaged and they all want to stop her. Akechi Mitsuhide stirs up troubles, and everyone is happy to help.
But no one expected that Akechi Mitsuhide would simply kill Ashikaga Yoshiteru and let everyone bear the blame for this huge disaster.
If Yoshihiro Shiba comes back to deal with Mitsuhide Akechi, it will be tantamount to admitting to the world's samurai families that the Shiba family is behind the scenes.
Those recent warriors who are not clean themselves will definitely be happy to throw dirty water on the Sibo family and wash their own homes into white lotus flowers.
Can Shiba Yiyin do such a stupid thing? He could only face the reality helplessly and let the three good people take the blame.
Let's pretend to be stupid together with everyone, and pour the dirty water of killing the general on Miyoshi's family. Follow everyone, you are innocent, I am innocent, and everyone is innocent.
Therefore, when Momochi Satafu threatened him with a confession, Akechi Mitsuhide just felt it was funny, and he also felt happy to grasp Fujibayashi's pain points.
The third wife of Baiji was more than ruthless, but it was a pity that she, who was born in the Ninja family, was too short-sighted, and Akechi Mitsuhide was more evil than her.
Looking at the confessions scattered on the ground, Akechi Mitsuhide said lightly.
"pick it up."
After Bai Di San Taifu bowed, he quickly picked up all the confessions and respectfully put them back on her case.
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded and asked.
"Just this one?"
Bai Di San Taifu hesitated, took out a few more papers from his body, put them on the case, and said.
"This is the original document. It has the bloody thumbprint of Fujibayashi Xing's confession. The copy you have is an attachment to the transcript, and there are only two copies in total."
Mitsuhide Akechi picked up the two confessions and lit them directly on the candlestick next to the case. The flames ignited on the paper, reflecting her elegant face.
"I believe you have memorized it. When the master asks, just repeat it directly.
Don't worry, I will admit all accounts that need to be acknowledged in front of the Lord. It's just that this confession can't be kept. It's not good for outsiders to see it. "
Momochi Santao looked at the burning confessions and wanted to prevent them from being destroyed, but she could not muster the courage to resist Mitsuhide Akechi.
Akechi Mitsuhide kept saying that he would admit his fault, but now Fujibayashi Muku was the only one in the room. In the future, if he turns against him and refuses to admit his fault, who will testify for the Third Taifu of Baidi? Fujibayashi Mukuro who has a dead mother and dead sister?
Fujibayashi Xing is dead, and without her original confession, Baiji Santafu will be completely passive without any evidence. It's just that she is too anxious at this moment and doesn't dare to be tough to the end.
The level between her and Akechi Mitsuhide is too different.
Although the Third Taifu of Baidi was awarded the security certificate by Yiyin, he has the status of a local who knows and practices thousands of stones. But she really wasn't qualified to step into the muddy waters in which the upper echelons of various companies had joined forces to trap the general to death.
She was confident before, thinking that she had caught Akechi Mitsuhide, and that she had made a great contribution in finding out the truth this time.
But Akechi Mitsuhide's scornful attitude in the face of her evidence made her wake up from her dream in an instant.
It's like if you owe a banker one million, you're screwed. Just spend the rest of your life working hard to pay back the money. But if you owe 100 million, 1 billion, 10 billion, or even 10 billion, is this still a problem?
If the matter is too big, there will be people who will worry about it for you and wipe your buttocks for you.
Shaking his hands and looking at the spark fragments remaining in the confession, Mitsuhide Akechi looked at Momochi Santafu with even stronger eyes.
"If there is nothing else, you can go back to Kanto as soon as possible and give Fujibayashi Xing's confession."
The third wife of Momochi was stunned. Akechi Mitsuhide was telling her to stop here and get out of here. Sure enough, once the confession was burned, he fell out and stopped recognizing the person.
Her face suddenly became hot and she said something.
"My Lord asked me to find out the truth. I will wait for him to come back in the near future and report as soon as possible."
Akechi Mitsuhide looked at her with confusion.
"What else are you checking? Isn't everything clear?
how? It's not enough for me to check. I also need to check Maeda Benefit, Takada Haruno, or Hosokawa Fujitaka?
Then check all the famous high-level martial arts families in recent times? Look how many comrades I still have, how many powerful warriors want to kill Mr. Gongfang? "
The third wife of Momochi lowered his head and said nothing, gritting his teeth and not daring to speak. Akechi Mitsuhide was too arrogant.
The conspiracy to kill the general was like killing a chicken in her mouth, and her arrogance was outrageous.
She named these people in a specious way, which frightened Bai Di San Taifu. Does she dare to check those people one by one?
Offending all the senior officials, allies, and powerful names of the entire Konji Shiba Territory to death, what good would it do to the third husband of the Hundred Lands?
Shiba Yiyin just asked her to figure out what happened, but he didn't ask her to come back and light the powder keg. If Akechi Mitsuhide stirs up the fire and causes a turmoil, he won't be able to handle it.
Seeing her cowardly look, Akechi Mitsuhide smiled sarcastically and said.
"Since Lord Baidi still has a mission, I won't keep you here.
Finally, a piece of advice for you. Stay well in Iga country and say what you need to say when your master comes back.
At this time, do more and make more mistakes, do less and make fewer mistakes. It has been a mess these days. One Ashikaga General has already been buried, and another ten or eight thousand stone piles of land have been buried. They are not even the additions on the coffin board.
Lord Baidi, do you think this is true? "
Bai Di San Taifu was so angry that his face turned blue.
She first threatened Akechi Mitsuhide when she entered the house, but now that Akechi Mitsuhide returned the money and profits, she could only accept the humiliation silently.
The Third Taifu of Baidi kowtowed to the ground and said.
"Thank you, Lord Akechi, for your advice. I'll take my leave now."
Mitsuhide Akechi waved his hands, his expression like shooing away a buzzing blowfly.
"Go slowly, don't send me away."
When the third husband of Momochi left in embarrassment, only Mitsuhide Akechi and Muku Fujibayashi were left in the house.
Looking at the calm Fujibayashi, Mitsuhide Akechi asked with admiration in his eyes.
"If you dare to come here with her, won't you worry that I will really fire you and leave you to her?"
Fujibayashi Mukuro bowed and said.
"Don't be afraid, I'm still useful to you adults."
Akechi Mitsuhide nodded and said.
"Yes, you are a sensible person.
The most important thing for people is to be valuable. As long as they are still useful, they will not be abandoned. You see this more clearly than your sister.
She died after all, died of her own stupidity. how about you? Do you hate me? "
Fujibayashi Mukuro's eyes twitched and he said respectfully.
"I hate Bai Di San Taifu even more."
Akechi Mitsuhide clapped his hands and said.
"Okay, then live well.
Even if you are as humble as a maggot, you must try to survive. Only when people are alive can they have hope, but when they die, there is nothing. As long as there is one breath left, everything is possible.
I can scare the third prince of Baidi, but the master's test is not easy. When he comes back soon, I won't be able to protect myself, so you should be happy for yourself. "
Teng Lin Ming kowtowed to the ground and said.
"Mr. Akechi's kindness in protecting you today, Fujibayashi is filled with gratitude and will be remembered in my heart."
Then, she looked up at the elegant smile that seemed to hang on Akechi Mitsuhide's face forever, and the words Fujibayashi Anzu said before her death came to mind.
Beware Akechi Mitsuhide.
Fujibayashi barely managed to survive, but she knew that her hard days had just begun.
Fujibayashi Anzu is the person in charge of the Nakato group in Kyoto, and she has a lot to do with the general's death. Fujibayashi Mukuro is the governor of the Fujibayashi family and the person in charge of the same group. Even if he knows nothing about it, he cannot escape the blame.
The most taboo thing for the intelligence department is to act without authorization. They are the most loyal lackeys of the master. How can they do such a thing behind the master's back?
Fujibayashi Xing was looking for death and brought the Fujibayashi family into trouble. Fujibayashi didn't know what his master would do to him, the Fujibayashi family, and his group after he came back.
But she knows that she must try her best to survive. Even if she is humbled and buried, she must live with humiliation and heavy burden.
When her mother died, she endured it in order to take care of the family business.
In order to avenge her mother, Fujibayashi was used by Akechi Mitsuhide, framed by Momochi Santao, and killed by her own sister.
Fujibayashi will never forget this grudge. One day, she will kill Bai Di San Taifu with her own hands. Also, Mitsuhide Akechi.
Akechi Mitsuhide looked at Fujibayashi Mukuro who lowered his head and remained silent. She knew that the calm woman in front of her must be full of hatred in her heart. She hated the Third Taifu of Baidi and herself.
But it doesn't matter. Mitsuhide Akechi really admires Fujibayashi. This sister is much better than that sister. A useful tool, but some minor flaws should be tolerated.
In troubled times, no matter how much you care about the future, it would be good if you can save your life today. Everyone is hanging on, everyone is compromising.
The only direct descendant of the Fujibayashi family is Fujibayashi Mukuro, and there is no room for impulsiveness in the continuation of the family business. Momochi Santao and her had irreconcilable blood feud and power conflicts, but Akechi Mitsuhide was different.
Akechi Mitsuhide is destined to follow Shiba Yoshigan to a higher place, looking down at the ninjas like ants. It's really hard to tell whether Fujibayashi Muku will want to kill her or become attached to her in the future.
Ninja is just a dog raised by the Wu family.
Even though Momochi Santao and the Fujibayashi sisters were promoted by Shiba Yoshigan, they were separated from the humble level of ninja. But in the hearts of high-level warriors, the middle- and lower-class Ji warriors are still dogs.
Driving the lackeys to do things and killing them for meat when necessary is the norm in the Wu family. What is there to hate?
The Akechi family is the branch of the Toki family that protects Mino. Akechi Mitsuhide is an important minister of the Shiba family. His territory and the Shiba coal mine total 13,000 koku.
Her family's reputation is not low, and the old ministers of Mino and Kyoto who lived with her formed a samurai group headed by her, the Akechi Retainers Group.
Fujibayashi Mukuo could hate Momochi Santao and find an opportunity to kill her in the future, but it would be difficult for him to take revenge on Akechi Mitsuhide.
For a humble family of savage leaders to become a martial artist and a leader of thousands of stones is a blessing that has been cultivated in ten lifetimes. You killed a sister unjustly, and you want to show your teeth at the person holding the dog leash?
To be a dog, you must have the awareness to be a dog, wag your tail well, and ask for a bite of food.
