Inari wants to live in peace

Motomoto Matsudaira

Oda Nobuhiro and Matsudaira Kiyoyasu are rivals.

No matter how much I met my son Nobunaga in my childhood, the evil roots of my father's generation still remain strong.

Normally, therefore, the alliance between the two countries cannot be united.

Nevertheless, Inari God affirmed that if a cooperative relationship is formed, he should rely on Ozaki's Oda Nobunaga.

However, since the world is at the dawn of war, there will be another skirmish in Ishigaze.This was the third time I had fought Oda at the place.

For this reason, I decided to bring a trusted minister to visit Kiyosu Castle, the castle of Odase.

Honestly, I don't feel comfortable living, but it's impossible to swallow the roots of both, reconcile them, and build strong alliances without this.

I made several divine requests to Inari-sama, who pushed me in my heart, and I lowered my hips nervously to a knitted circle of straw laid between the planks.

And Oda-san appeared, sweating cold, but just kept waiting without moving slightly.

Don't be impatient. Now is the time for patience.

It will take some time for me to grow up and fly into the sky.

"Matsudaira-san, you kept me waiting."

Oda Hall emerges from the back seating, walks quietly, and stands down majestically in a circle placed on a slab that is a step higher than ours.

"No, don't worry."

Shortly before his arrival, the Oda family of ministers, who might not have been pleased with us, continued to enter the room.

Thanks to this, I was able to recognise this place as hostile, so I felt the narrow feeling of my shoulders.

Now put it down, it's finally a place of truth.

It is no exaggeration to say that whether or not to form an alliance between the two countries will determine the future course of the Three Rivers.

"I had my brief read.I came to make an alliance in harmony with Oda. Is there a difference? "

"Yes, that's right."

I hope that my presence as an envoy will help me to forge an alliance.

The opponent defeated the Imakawa army in the battle between the barrels, and now Nobunaga Oda has the momentum to drop flying birds.

The letter states that there is a reciprocal relationship, but I cannot be alarmed because the inequality that may be seen below may be pressed.

"The sincerity of Matsudaira, who said that he would go to the enemy land himself, was certainly shown.

Now that our ancestors are dead, we have no objection to forming an alliance by washing away the roots of the past. "

Apparently, Oda-don didn't mean to fight Matsudaira directly.

There are other forces surrounding us that cannot be alarmed, so it is not impossible.

Anyway, it is certain that the interests of both sides coincided.

First, let's pacify our hearts with peace of mind and start the meeting towards the conclusion of the treaty.

Thereafter, the discussions proceeded smoothly, making fine adjustments and successfully forging a reciprocal alliance.

Even if this is the peace of the past, we can relax each other's shoulders and claim to the neighboring countries as friendly allies.

This makes it a little harder to attack, and it would be helpful if we could buy time to unify the Three Rivers.

In any case, Oda and Matsudaira cooperated even temporarily.

At that time, Oda temple held a welcoming banquet for each other at Kiyosu Castle.

I'd really like to go back to my country right now and let the rest of my men know that the treaty has been signed and reassure them.

But if I refused here, it would make my impression worse, so I returned to Mikawa as a couple of messengers, and I and the rest of my men decided to accept it with pleasure.

It was around half an hour after the gentle banquet at Kiyosu Castle.

From the drunken mouth of Oda, an outrageous topic popped up.

"Is it true that someone named Inari God appeared in Mikawa?"

"Well, what do you mean?Everyone has no idea. "

"Hmm... how do I look?"

Matsudaira and Oda are neighboring countries, and they are always alert to each other and gather information.

Rumors on both sides often get heard because of the proximity at that time.

In addition, I was taking measures to keep rumors of no roots or leaves by spreading false information so that Inari-sama would not be targeted by other countries or traditional sects.

However, when such intelligence work is carried out, it may be missing from Oda's neighbor.

At the very least, I wonder if Oda has any interest in Inari-sama.

"If you don't mind, can you tell me what kind of rumor it is?"

"Oh, I don't mind."

It would be more natural to play drunkenness and ask as if you were interested just now rather than just wandering around.

It would be great to know how much Oda knows about Inari-sama's information.

"A woman named Inari God appears in Mikawa.

Someone who sometimes helps people, sometimes cheats, and enjoys their reactions. "

"As far as I'm concerned, you must be the con artist who talks about Inari."

I don't know if Mr Oda is telling the truth.

However, I understood that I believed in false information about Inari-sama.I can say it was enough to ask if you pretended to be drunk.

"So Matsudaira was deceived by a con artist and came to the enemy to form an alliance with Oda?"

Now what?

Oda suddenly bathed in the pursuit of drunkenness that cooled down at once.

Does he know I went to see Inari-sama?It goes from anywhere to anywhere.

But why did it leak?Or did my subordinates leak it?Maybe Oda's spy was lurking.

"Matsudaira-san, what's wrong?Are you stopping drinking? "

"Ha!? Oh, I'm so sorry!"

Until now, I had a gentle laugh, and suddenly my face turned into a difficult one, and my heart was in a hurry.

"Hahaha, I don't know the relationship between Matsudaira Temple and Inari God.

This is a rude seat. That's right, forgive me. "

There was no word.

Oda-san put a bullet in my face.I want to enter if there is a hole.

I can't apologize to Inari-sama for sending me out with a smile.

At the same time, however, as the ruler of Mikawa, I thought that I could not commit any further failure.

In the meantime, make the most of the advantages of a quick breathing, a smile to give your face room, and a banquet seat.

No, Oda doesn't have any enemies!

"Of course! However, Matsudaira Temple has an unparalleled youth! I envy you!"

Laugh at each other, enjoy alcohol, and let the conversation go away, and let the water flow to both sides.

It is a gentle feast from anywhere.

Having been eaten by Mr. Oda, I don't feel like staying here any longer, and my desire to go back to Mikawa now becomes even stronger.

But he didn't want to get away with it so easily.

"By the way, did the woman who calls herself Inari God say anything about the wolf?"

There is no need to be honest about this.

Both sides flushed it into the water once, so if you fall in love with Inari-sama and you've never met him before, that's it.

But Oda taught me a trick, a far-fetched trick, to virtual enemies, even though they were allies.

In a way, it seemed like the enemy had mercy on him.

So I decided to answer honestly only now, considering that I was on my side and that it was a happy banquet seat.

"If you have to rely on it, Oda of Ozaki.

And in the future, we will grow our forces with the momentum of bamboo rupture. "

"Ho ho! How dare you praise me!"

Mr Oda is a grown bird and I am a chick.

Even if you fail in the booze seat, now is the time to be patient and manage to suppress shame.

"But a woman named Inari God has a good look at the situation in this country.

I'd love to meet him and talk to him in person. "

After talking, I will naturally try to add it to my assignment.

But that Inari-sama can't move, so I'm not worried about that at all.

I'm the only one who actually talks to you, but she's not the one who serves others.

It is obvious because he is a real god, but it is not a vessel that fits in one country.When it finally moves, it will rise from itself and reach out to all the people of Japan for salvation.

I don't know if that day will come, but perhaps Oda will also be a compatriot at that time.

But now that the alliance has just been signed, it's time to build trust.

Until then, I will continue to carry out perturbation work, and Inari-sama will stand around to make it easier to move, and I will cover the mud instead.

With that in mind, Mr. Oda and I drank alcohol together with each other with pleasure on the outside.
