When the girls at Nijo Gosho were struggling with Oda Nobunaga's conditions, Yoshigan Shiba came to Tofukuji Temple again.

After staying up all night, talking to Akechi Mitsuhide about dawn, Yoshigami did not rest, but immediately went to Tofukuji Temple to pay a visit to Oda Nobunaga.

The Mibu Wolf may launch a new Tenchu ​​at any time, and Ashikaga Yoshiaki will not sit still and wait for death. Yoshihiro needs to act as soon as possible to complete Akechi Mitsuhide's plan.

If it is delayed for a long time, things may change again.

———

Oda Nobunaga had just summoned Hashiba Hideyoshi to come for questioning, and then he received news of Yoshigan Shiba's visit.

She raised her eyebrows and said to Hideyoshi Hashiba.

"Our Grand Imperial Office has come at the right time."

Hashiba Hideyoshi was a little uneasy, and Oda Nobunaga summoned him to discuss the deployment of Oda's army to temporarily guard Kyoto and intervene in the chaos in Kyoto.

she asked carefully.

"Or, should I avoid it first?"

Oda Nobunaga glanced at her and smiled a little proudly.

"What are you avoiding? Mori Ranmaru, bring Odaisho in.

Hideyoshi, it’s up to you.”

Hashiba Hideyoshi pursed his lips and hesitated. Oda Nobunaga looked at her coldly, which made her heart tremble and she had to bite the bullet and continue speaking.

Oda Nobunaga stopped her at this time and waited until footsteps were heard outside the porch before gesturing for her to continue.

"In recent days, the Shiba Territory has not yet mobilized its troops, and Maeda Toshiie-sama of the Owari Shiba Territory is still in the Minami Omi area, executing your garrison orders.

The troops of the Shiba family causing trouble in Kyoto are just swordsmen with ronin background, so they are not difficult to deal with. To defeat them, a reserve team is enough.

Even if they took advantage of Kyoto to hide, encircling and suppressing them would only require the use of four or five reserve teams to drive away the encirclement.

These days, Takenaka Hime has traveled all over Kyoto and drawn a complete map of Kyoto's cities and towns. If necessary, our army can control the nodes of each town and search them town by town. They won't be able to hide for long."

Oda Nobunaga seemed to be listening to Hashiba Hideyoshi's security strategy, but he kept staring at the door, not paying attention.

Sure enough, Yoshigan Shiba appeared outside the door. Hideyoshi Hideyoshi's voice trembled slightly, and he seemed unable to speak.

She turned around and kowtowed to Yoshigan Shiba. Yoshigan did not look at her, but walked straight to Oda Nobunaga.

"Your Majesty Oda, is it okay if I sit here?"

Yiyin chose the opposite seat instead of the upper seat, which was a compromising gesture.

Oda Nobunaga waved to Mori Ranmaru at the door, and Mori Ranmaru bowed and closed the sliding door.

Only Oda Nobunaga and Shiba Yoshigan were left sitting opposite each other, and Hashiba Hideyoshi was restless.

Yoshigan said to Hideyoshi Hashiba who was lying on the ground.

"Get up."

Hashiba Hideyoshi quietly glanced at Oda Nobunaga, who nodded, and then she stood up.

Seeing that Oda Nobunaga had no intention of letting Hashiba Hideyoshi leave, Yoshigami encountered a setback before his straw delivery trip even started. He couldn't take advantage of Oda Nobunaga's straw in front of Hashiba Hideyoshi, right?

Yoshigan looked at Oda Nobunaga and asked.

"What? I disturbed your monarch's performance, right?"

Oda Nobunaga said with a soft smile.

"What's the matter? You are the noble Grand Imperial Palace. How dare we, lowly people, make pretense in front of you?

It’s just that the shogunate sent Master Ise Sadakyo here, hoping that I would intervene in the increasingly chaotic situation in Kyoto. I heard that some ronin are messing around and are engaging in Tenchu ​​country thieves. Does Odai know anything about it?"

Yoshigan's heart sank. Although he came very quickly, Ise Sadakyo still got one step ahead.

he asked calmly.

"His Majesty Oda agreed?"

Oda Nobunaga looked at Yoshigan, like a big cat playing with a mouse, his eyes full of teasing.

"The legal system I proposed in Luozhong has not yet passed the review of the shogunate. The Oda army is only temporarily guarding Kyoto and doing its part for the shogunate.

I'm a little embarrassed to send troops to pacify those rogues. After all, I have no name, so if something happens, who am I?

I ask Lord Ise Sakyo to go back first and wait until the shogunate passes the Luozhong legal system and allows the Oda family to officially take on the responsibility for public security in Kyoto before we can talk about anything else."

Yoshigan shook his head slightly. Akechi Mitsuhide's strategy of using the Rakuchu legal system to win over Oda Nobunaga was also a step too late.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Oda Nobunaga have already connected, and he has offended both of them so much that everything he says at this time is in vain.

Yoshigan is very clear about Oda Nobunaga's temperament. If he disgraced her last time, she will definitely take revenge.

The only solution for now is to soften your posture.

He had a deep conversation with Akechi Mitsuhide and finally understood where he had made a mistake. At this time, when he came to Tofukuji Temple, he had already awakened in his heart.

Yiyin understands that as long as he is shameless, there is no woman in the world that he can't handle.

The previous failure was because, on the one hand, he was too obsessed and chose the wrong allies. On the other hand, he put on airs and lost his most powerful weapon.

There is no irreconcilable conflict of interest between Oda Nobunaga and him. The so-called conflict is just a matter of face. Put aside your own dignity and let her feel comfortable, and everything will be easy to handle.

Glancing at Hideyoshi in the room, Yoshiyin suddenly laughed, his smile a little tired.

Ever since Yukino's accident, he hasn't had a good rest. Even though there are systematic special effects to support his eternal eighteen-year-old appearance, his haggard appearance still cannot hide his fatigue and makes people feel pitiful.

Oda Nobunaga's heart was filled with the pleasure of revenge, and she did not expect that things would go so smoothly.

With Yukino Takada walking alone and the appearance of Tenchu, the conflict between Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Shiba Yoshigan rapidly worsened.

As a third party, the Oda family did nothing and already had a good bargaining chip, enough to sell at a price.

Ashikaga Yoshiaki needed the Oda family's military strength, and Shiba Yoshigan needed the Oda family to continue to stand aside. Both of them turned to Oda Nobunaga.

Oda Nobunaga looked at Yoshigan, this man who was so high-spirited and humiliated him a few days ago. Seeing him coming to ask for help, Oda Nobunaga was really in a happy mood and felt so good.

Hideyoshi Hashiba tried his best to hide his admiration, and couldn't bear to look at the haggard Yoshigan.

The three of them suddenly fell silent, and the room was silent for a while.

After a while, Yiyin started his performance. He smiled bitterly and said.

"I gotta go."

Oda Nobunaga raised his eyebrows.

"Go? Where?"

Yiyin looked at her face and said calmly.

"I am going to resign from the shogunate, return to my skills, and become a monk to practice Buddhism."

Oda Nobunaga was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said.

"Didn't you promise to stop me last time? Even the Celestial Empire moved out for the sake of the shogunate.

What? Changed your mind?"

Yiyin was already extremely tired, so he didn't even need to act at this time. Deep fatigue and sadness appeared on his face.

"Yeah, I thought I could, but the general stabbed me in the back.

Even before the bones of my ancestors were cold, she was thinking of remarrying me. Rumors were rampant in the town, and the Council of Ministers could only see the picture above.

I am just a husband, and I am grateful for the kindness and love shown to me by my ancestors, so I am determined to step forward and do my part for the shogunate.

Never would I have thought that people's hearts would be so cold and desolate. I am worthy of my ancestors and worthy of the shogunate. Now that things have come to this, I can only become a monk to clear my mind and be loyal and righteous."

Gu Xu

Oda Nobunaga looked at the haggard Yoshigan, and he no longer had the slightest joy of victory in his heart, but instead felt a little annoyed.

It was obvious that he had won, and it was obvious that he was bowing his head and admitting defeat. Why, why was he not as happy as he had imagined before, but instead more unhappy.

Oda Nobunaga said angrily.

"You came to Tofukuji Temple just to tell me this?"

Yoshigan looked at Oda Nobunaga with a holy face and said.

"Shogunate, I can't save you.

I have known for a long time that you have great ambitions for the world, and the trash in the shogunate are no match for you. I have offended you severely by standing up to be loyal to the shogunate.

Before I leave, I just want to ask one thing. What can I do to appease your dissatisfaction with the Sibo family?"

Oda Nobunaga looked at Yoshigan indifferently and said.

"Let you go? You should know my character very well. If you humiliate me so much, I will never let you go."

Oda Nobunaga's words seemed to be talking about political affairs, but there was a faint turmoil in a corner of her heart, as if it had another meaning.

Yiyin put a stray hair on his forehead behind his ears and smiled freely.

"Yeah, how could you let me go?"
