The reactions of Kyogoku Yukiri and Kyogoku Dozo were completely opposite.
Kyogoku Yuki nodded slightly in agreement.
Kyogoku Dosan clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Although Fuuma is greedy for money and unruly, his claim to serve money is true. Once he takes the money, he will definitely do things. And he will not betray his employer."
"I know. You have said it more than once. This is the way Feng Mo survives after losing his master. It is also the character design."
"If he is greedy for money and doesn't do things well, who will hire him? How will the Fuma Ninja Group survive?"
"So he's greedy for money, so he has to be loyal to money."
"But have you ever thought about it. Feng Mo's personality is very detrimental to him looking for his next master. Daimyos don't like money-grubbing personalities. Not to mention being unruly."
"As a samurai, after becoming a ronin. Shouldn't he look for a new master after the demise of the Hojo family?"
Kyogoku Dao was not stupid, he immediately reacted, frowned and said: "Your Majesty is saying. Fuma deliberately set up this unflattering character. To avoid being recruited by the daimyo?"
"It's possible. I mean it's possible. Is there still a direct descendant of the Hojo family?" Wu Nian narrowed his eyes and asked.
Long Qie's figure appeared in his mind. This old brother's family was killed by Meng Yuan. In order to save money for revenge, he also did some shameful things.
Not a good person.
Thinking of Long Qie, Wu Nian turned his head and glanced at Kyogoku Yukiri. This was the princess of the subjugated country. After the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, she also aspired to restore the country.
Kyogoku Dosan frowned even more. Wu Nian's angle was very, very tricky. No one in the world had ever explained the behavior of Fuma Ninja from this direction.
For money, Fuma Ninja is willing to do shady things.
But because they believed in money and the leader of the wind demon was unruly, no daimyo liked them. There will be no new owner.
But if the Hojo family still exists.
That Fuma ninja actually still has a master.
Are they gathering money to revive the Hojo family?
Kyogoku Dosan thought of this and couldn't help but said: "But Your Majesty, the direct line of the Hojo family has perished. Although there are also branch families, they have given up on reviving the Hojo family."
"So it is possible. In short, I think their behavior is abnormal. Use your Kyogoku family's connections to conduct a covert investigation."
Wu Nian shook his head and said. This is an inexplicable intuition.
"Yes." Kyogoku Dosan immediately responded respectfully. Since it is the king's order, no matter how doubtful you are, you must do it. This is the way to be a minister.
"No matter what, hired people are not reliable. What is reliable is your own eyes and ears. That is, the spies of the Imperial City Division."
"The training of spies is a top priority."
Wu Nian said.
"Yes." Kyogoku Yukiri and Kyogoku Michizan responded obediently. This is indeed the truth. Like a retainer of a daimyo.
For the newly acquired ronin, no matter the trust or status, they are not as good as the family members who have served the family for generations.
It's like the structure of the Toyotomi Shogunate.
The name of a close vassal, the name of a generation, and the name of an outsider.
Even if the Fuma Ninja is completely obedient, no matter how well he performs, and the level of trust he receives, he cannot compare with the Han King's confidants like Chen Jiagui or Wang Gui.
...........
After the Fuma ninja came into contact with the officials of the Imperial City Division, he took the carriage loaded with money out of the Kyoto city and arrived at an abandoned house in a village outside the city.
The house has undergone simple repairs and can barely provide shelter from wind and rain.
It is their temporary stronghold.
At this moment, it was already dark. There are ninjas cooking food. Fuma and several ninjas knelt in front of the oil lamp.
The light of the oil lamp flickered on and off, making their faces looming.
Feng Mo took out a coin from his arms and looked at it under the oil lamp. The money is good and the handwriting is very clear.
[Jianwu Tongbao].
"It's really good money and plenty of materials. At first, the Kyogoku family hooked up with Wu Nian with Fuso's gold and silver. While amassing a lot of wealth, they also gained Wu Nian's favor. That's how we are today. Wu Nian Send troops to Fuso and help Ryukyu recover."
"Money can make a fool of himself."
Feng Mo completely lost his unruly attitude in front of Wu Nian. He spoke in a deep voice and carefully stuffed the coins back into his arms as if they were treasures.
For example, Fuuma Ninja.
The loyal dog of the Hojo family, a lonely ghost. You can do all kinds of dirty things for money.
They rob good women and force them into prostitution.
Open an underground casino.
Assassination.
Investigate secrets.
Whatever you get the money for.
Regardless of whether it is a famous person or a businessman, as long as they give money, Fuma Ninja is willing to do things.
Of course, the same goes for King Han.
However, King of Han is slightly different.
"Sir, do we really want to help Wu Nian and fight against the Iga ninjas?" A ninja couldn't help but ask.
"There has to be a certain level." Feng Mo shook his head and said. Immediately, a sparkle appeared in his eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said: "The Warring States Period has ended. Toyotomi Daikichi's status is becoming increasingly stable. The great names are as honest as dogs."
"No matter how much money we gather, the hope of the Hojo family is slim."
"But Wu Nian's attack on Fusang brought an opportunity."
"What I said to Wu Nian before is true. Wu Nian has absolutely no chance of winning. Not to mention that Toyotomi Daikichi is still very strong. Elite troops such as the Red Armor Cavalry and the Northern Samurai have not been used yet."
"The second best general in the world and the best general in the world are still in the hands of Toyotomi Daikichi."
"Toyotomi's Four Heavenly Kings and Toyotomi's Sixteen Divine Generals."
"Even if the Toyotomi family is defeated, there are still one-tenth of the population of Fuso warriors. That's more than one million."
"The samurai serve the daimyo."
"Although the Han army succeeded in the raid, they would only be stuck in a quagmire in Fusang."
"But. This is beneficial to the Hojo family. The Han army invaded Fuso, which caused damage to the stability of the Toyotomi Daiyoshi shogunate. Now some foreign daimyo have begun to be dishonest."
"If Wu Nian defeats Toyotomi Daikichi, the Hojo family will take advantage of the situation to revive. Join forces with Fuso and other big names to drive Wu Nian away."
"Fuso is still the same Fuso. The Hojo family may even replace the Toyotomi family and become the new Fuso Lord and Shogun."
"So. My strategy is to temporarily help Wu Nian against Toyotomi Daikichi. When the time comes, I will turn around and betray Wu Nian."
"Everything is for the purpose of reviving the Hojo family."
Speaking of excitement, Feng Mo's eyes became wet, and his voice couldn't help but become excited.
The Fuma ninjas in this stronghold, including those who cooked and were on guard, couldn't help but lower their heads. Several ninjas sitting next to Fuma responded in a low voice.
"yes."
For the revival of the Hojo family, we have shouldered too many shames.
He has endured humiliation and heavy burden for many years, just to reach the sky one day.
Sooner or later the Fuma ninja will stand in the sun, just like the current Iga ninja.
Serving the Hojo family upright is called a "ninja".
