Oda Nobunaga has already been trapped.
If she didn't fall out, Yoshigan Shiba either cooperated with the Oda family, or returned to Koki through the Oda territory, taking control of the initiative.
If she wants to fall out, Yoshigan Shiba can return to Mikawa Kingdom and use Tokugawa Ieyasu, an ally of the Oda family, as a buffer.
Then, he spread the word to the samurai all over the world that Oda Nobunaga had evil intentions and did not allow him to go to Luo to avenge his wife. In this way, the Oda family also lost the great cause of going to Luo.
No matter how Oda Nobunaga chooses, he will always be passive. This is Maeda Toshiie's way of helping Yoshihiro Shiba and holding back the Oda family from the inside.
But Yiyin Sibo followed up decisively and completed the idea without communication.
Oda Nobunaga looked at the castle tower in the distance and thought bitterly. . This pair of dogs and men. . There is really a tacit understanding across the distance. .
After staring at Qingzhou Castle Castle for a long time, she finally gave up on the idea of going strong.
Shiba Yiyin has one hundred and fifty elite Ji warriors, who must be ready.
The Oda family's Hime Samurai has retreated to the periphery. It will be difficult to capture or besiege him through a strong attack. Once it fails, the consequences will be disastrous.
The path of breaking up would do more harm than good and was not cost-effective, so Oda Nobunaga gradually calmed down.
She is a realist through and through. After discovering that this road was blocked, she quickly changed her mind, and then she really began to consider the possibility of cooperation with Bank of China.
As the hostility in his eyes dissipated, a strange emotion surged into Oda Nobunaga's heart.
For normal people, fear is terrible and something to be avoided. But for Oda Nobunaga, this fear was so new.
It had been a long, long time since she had been so scared that her hands were shaking. It was really exciting for her. He is indeed the man he likes, so exciting.
Oda Nobunaga had a weird smile. Comparing the memory of him with the person he met today, his body became hot and uneasy.
Sure enough, it became more delicious, Oda Nobunaga licked the corners of his mouth.
It's a pity that we can't take him down now and make him a tea drinking vessel. But after going to Luo, there will always be opportunities to force him to surrender in the future.
Spo Yiyin, we'll see.
———
A few days later, several fast horses rushed into Qingzhou City, and Maeda Toshiie arrived.
After receiving the call from Qingzhou City, she set off immediately. Thinking that she was about to meet the lord whom she had longed for day and night, her heart was burning and she traveled day and night to come.
In fact, Maeda Toshiie was also surprised when he learned about Yoshihiro Shiba's tough attitude.
Because the Oda family is powerful and Oda Nobunaga has a surly temperament, Maeda Toshiie always thought that Yoshihiro Saba, who was mature in political means, would choose a compromise and cooperation attitude.
Unexpectedly, Yoshigan Shiba showed his tenacity to break up as soon as they met, forcing Oda Nobunaga to summon him to an audience to ease the extremely tense relationship between the two families.
While being surprised, Maeda Toshiie couldn't help but feel a little sweet in his heart.
The master is so determined, he is really affectionate and righteous to himself. I just don't know if this feeling is the kind of feeling I hope for.
As they entered the city at full speed, Maeda Toshiie suddenly reined in his horse and stopped, and the village chief Lai beside him asked.
"My lord?"
Maeda Toshiie looked at Murai Nagai, who was disgraced because he rushed back all night, and imagined that his current appearance would definitely not be much better, so he said.
"Find a place for me to freshen up first. I can't go to see the Lord in such a mess."
The village chief Lai hesitated.
"Here...where can we go?"
Maeda Toshiie's eyes became extraordinarily gentle, and he turned away.
"follow me."
The small house that Maeda Toshi's family rented has been bought by her and has been vacant ever since.
It was there that she drunkenly knocked down Yiyin and got her wish. Then while on duty, he was so angry that he stabbed Aichi Juami to death for humiliating Yoshigan.
There is where the dream begins.
———
Yoshigan Shiba of the Seisu Castle Castle Tower heard that Maeda Toshiie was coming to the city and was ready to accept her visit, but he waited and saw no one.
He asked Kamao Clan to inquire, but learned that Maeda Toshiie went to a residential area where lower-level samurai gathered.
Yoshigage was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that he had spent the night drinking tea there with the drunk Maeda Toshiie, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
He was not yet fifteen at the time, and Toshiie Maeda was already twenty years old. Now that I think about it, she is so bad, an old cow drinks tender tea.
As he thought about it, Yiyin couldn't help but move his fingers. I haven’t seen her for three years. I don’t know how Maeda Toshi’s family is doing. I have never heard that she has a husband. She is probably still single.
Yiyin shook his head, it was my fault that I was too handsome. While he was thinking wildly, news came from outside the door, and Maeda Toshiie came to see him.
———
Following the Kamao family village to the inner courtyard, Maeda Toshiie felt like he was in another world.
She was once Oda Nobunaga's mother-in-law, and she had guarded here for several years. Every plant, tree, brick, and tile was familiar yet unfamiliar.
Thinking that the boy he had missed for three years was waiting for him in the residence, Maeda Toshiie's heart was burning.
She was still immersed in her memories, when Kamao Shigo, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped, bowed to her outside the porch, and said.
"Master Maeda, the master is in the inner room. He wants to talk to you alone. It is not convenient for me to go in."
Maeda Toshiie bowed slightly in return.
"Then I'll excuse you now."
She took a few steps and suddenly stopped. He touched his face, straightened his stray hair, took a deep breath, and stepped into the corridor.
Behind her, Kamao Shigo looked at her back with complicated eyes. This Owari Shiba acting commander gave her a feeling very similar to Yamanaka Yukimori and Shima Katsuo.
Her mood suddenly dropped.
My lord, how much grievance and helplessness have you endured for the sake of the Sibo family.
———
Maeda Toshiie didn't know that Kamao clan had already included her in the ranks of those bad women.
At this time, her mind went blank. She slowly opened the door and saw the tall and handsome young man sitting on the main seat, smiling at her.
"Li Jiaji, you are here."
Maeda Toshiie thought she could control her emotions, but at this time, she was stumbling.
Her eyes were full of excitement, and she walked step by step past the seat where she should sit, and continued to move forward.
She wanted to see clearly the man in front of her. The once immature boy had grown tall, mighty, handsome, and his temperament was inviolable and holy.
Her hot tears had already welled up and turned into two streaks of tears. This time, her hands were not empty, and she did not wake up from her dream.
Yoshihiro is even more handsome than he has been in Maeda Toshiie's dreams all these years. Maeda Toshiie even felt that she was still in a dream, just like every time she dreamed, she stretched out her hand.
The moment he touched Yoshigage's cheek, Maeda Toshiie was shocked, woke up from his fantasy, and wanted to pull out his hand to accuse him.
But Shiba Yiyin grabbed her hand, pressed it on his fragile face, and said softly.
"The past three years have been hard on you."
Maeda Toshiie's defense was broken by the words "I'm sorry for you". Her tears burst out. She could no longer control her emotions. She covered her face with her other hand and cried.
"Please don't look at me. I know I'm coming to see you and I've cleaned myself up, but I'm still crying in an ugly manner.
Please don’t look at me, please don’t look at me in such a bad way. "
Yiyin used his other hand to pinch and pull away the hand covering her face, and said to her with a smile.
"What's ugly about her? Li Jiaji is more mature, more beautiful, and more exciting."
Yiyin’s words came from the heart.
Maeda Toshiie is five years older than him, and at this time, she is a woman who has lost her youth and become mature. She still has the aura of youth, but is also wrapped in a mature and charming temperament. She is the most beautiful woman.
She was already outstanding in appearance, but now her appearance is even more delicious. How could Yiyin not be moved by being deeply loved by such a beauty.
Yiyin understands everything she has done for herself.
Whether it was making excuses in front of Oda Nobunaga, or submitting a request to join the Shiba Reservoir in the territory she had conquered, Yoshigan knew what she wanted.
Maeda Toshiie looked at Shiba Yigen, his eyes were full of tenderness, he understood what he had done, he understood it.
With this realization that he was understood by his sweetheart, Maeda Toshiie burst into tears and smiled, feeling that everything he had endured and endured was worth it.
She recalled how Oda Nobunaga had humiliated her several times and hugged Yoshigoshi Shiba in front of her. She could no longer bear the grievance in her heart and cried bitterly.
"Oda Nobunaga, she is a bastard! Every time! Every time! She has to remind me!
It's me, it's me who sent you to be with her. It's me who makes you drink tea from her. It's me, it's all my fault.
She kept saying it, over and over again. I feel so uncomfortable, I really can't stand it anymore!
I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault! "
Yoshigan touched Maeda Toshiie's hair and knew that these three years had not been easy. With Oda Nobunaga's bastard temperament, it's not easy for her to earn a living, not to mention Maeda Toshiie is still scheming against her.
But I have to say that Maeda Toshiie is really awesome. Not only did he save the Owari Shiba territory from Oda Nobunaga, he also developed it to 20,000 koku, and ensured the harmonious relationship between the two families.
If it weren't for Oda Nobunaga's plan to go to Luo, it would seriously threaten the interests of Shiba Yiyin, and Maeda Toshiie would have to rebel. She can continue to play this trick of playing both sides.
Yoshigami hugged Maeda Toshiie, his heart skipping a beat. The two of them clung to each other, their ears and temples rubbing against each other, and there was always some physical reaction.
He listened to Maeda Toshiie's accusations, calmed her down, and when she was almost done venting, he spoke in her ear with a smile.
"I know it's not easy for you, Toshikahime. Oda Nobunaga is a bastard, don't feel bad for her crazy words.
I will never drink tea with her in the future, I will drink tea with you, okay? Don't feel bad. "
Maeda Toshiie's face turned red, what did Shiba Yoshigan mean by this?
Only then did she realize that she was so emotional that she was crying on Yiyin's body. There was too much physical contact, and she quickly wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, it would be Yiyin's turn to hold her and not let go.
Yiyin said softly.
"Li Jiaji, shall we have tea?"
Lijia felt like she was dreaming again. She was so weak that she couldn't push away Yiyin's arms. She just muttered and kept repeating.
"No, no, I can't make the same mistake again and again... make the same mistake again and again... and make the same mistake again..."
Yiyin saw that she was chattering and her face was red, but her body was indifferent and she was at his mercy. This look of refusing to welcome made him laugh in his heart.
He suddenly stopped, let go of Maeda Toshiie, and said with a smile.
"If you want to drink tea, make it yourself."
Maeda Toshiie was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in, but she thought about it year after year, three whole years before waiting for this opportunity to drink tea. She couldn't bear it anymore.
She clenched her jade teeth, bowed her head with a blushing face, and said.
"Your Majesty has an order, and I dare not disobey it."
She stood up and took out the tea set neatly, which made Yiyin speechless. I haven’t seen him for three years. This person is thick-skinned and hungry.
How can the Maeda Toshi family control so much? Since they are no longer shameless, of course they must get affordable tea.
She tasted the spout with a look of fascination. Boil the tea with water until the water surface gradually turns brown. She wanted to drink milk tea, and black tea was certainly not enough.
The hands that had not practiced for a long time were trembling slightly. The tea spoon hit the tea cup, and the porcelain clinked with a clear sound.
Pick up the hot milk next to you and slowly pour it into the black tea, stirring occasionally with a spoon.
I saw white and brown mixed together, rotating along the spoon, forming a two-color spiral, and then slowly merging into one.
Seeing that the tea was hot, Maeda Toshiie picked up the tea cup and drank it in one gulp, feeling relieved and moaning in his mouth.
"Death or death, good tea, good tea."
Yiyin let her do what she did and was dumbfounded. What has she gone through in the past three years? She is really good at making tea.
As the saying goes, there is artistic conception in the depths of lotus flowers, and you can wander freely in the peach blossom garden.
Maeda Toshiie came back to his senses and wiped away the milk tea that spilled from the corner of his mouth. Seeing his master staring at him, his face became even redder.
In the past three years, she has drank tea in her dreams countless times, trying various tea drinks one by one, and drinking Sibo Yiyin is not the best for others, and the tea is not the best.
Who would have thought that for the first time after escaping from the dream, he would be so crazy that he would dare to act so wildly, which would make his master astonished. She secretly felt ashamed. She really didn't know how to behave in the future.
Who knows, Sibo Yiyin became interested instead. No matter how much you know about drinking tea, can you know better than me?
How many tea scriptures have I read and how many teachers have I observed in my previous life? How can you, a warrior Ji from the feudal era, know more about tea art than me?
If you get the upper hand, my portable hard drive will cry, and the educational materials there will roar and accuse me.
How could you embarrass such a person to the teachers in your previous life? I can't afford to lose this person!
Shiba Yiyin's eyes were ignited with the fire of victory, and he knew that he could not lose. Grabbing Maeda Toshiie's hand and looking into her eyes, Yoshigan smiled.
"I already understand your tea ceremony, this time it's your turn to taste my tea ceremony!"
Maeda Toshiie looked at him in astonishment, and then was hit by waves of tea-drinking skills. The tea rose, fell, cried, and begged for mercy, but could not get the forgiveness of Shiba Yigen.
Yoshigami demonstrates the tea ceremony ruthlessly, exhausting the advanced tea art five hundred years later, and must make Maeda Toshiie understand.
———
Pu Shengshi stood guard outside the porch of the inner courtyard, staring at the sky in a daze. The half-grown lolita from Tongxinzhong were placed on the periphery and on guard by her.
First of all, it is not yet known whether the Oda family is an enemy or a friend, so they must be wary of sneak attacks.
Secondly, although no movement could be heard in the inner room behind him, the Lord wanted to have a secret conversation with Maeda Toshiie, which always made the Kamao clan feel sad.
Even though he couldn't see, hear or smell it, it seemed that Kamao clan could still smell the fragrance of tea in the inner room.
She gritted her teeth and endured the inexplicable suffering. She looked forward with numb eyes, and her pupils suddenly shrank.
Why did Ii Naomasa, who was supposed to be on guard at the perimeter, come in, followed by... .
Oda Nobunaga?
