Nobunaga's Bastard

Lesson XV - Father of the Lord and Son of the Lord

"I'm so sorry to keep you waiting."

A man old enough to look slightly past forty bowed his head to me.

"I don't mind, Lord Minchang. Aren't we having an interesting conversation while we wait?"

When I gave it back, the owner of the mansion, Lord Isono, bowed his head again.

Kotani Mountain, which was touched a little earlier but where Kotani Castle was built, is one of the finest mountain castles surrounded by natural elements refrained from by the Tiger Mountain (Torazo) on the front, the Takashi River on the west and the Ibuki Mountain system behind it. I don't know the details, but the three generations of the Asai family principals who lived here in Kotani Castle have repeatedly increased and remodeled, and they continue to grow. It is located in Shimizutani Valley and its ridges on both sides, which cut deep into Kotani Mountain, and on the summit of Kotani Mountain. Its structure consists of Shimizutani Valley with its main culvert and residence, mainly Honmaru, and independent fortifications of Shimizumaru, Kingo Maru, Oshijo Castle, Tsukishimaru, Yakito Maru, Fushomaru and Yamazaki Maru arranged to protect them. Are we not allowed to enter Honmaru, even though we are guests? We were put through a mansion in Shimizutani.

Surrounded by Kotani Mountain and protected by the fortifications mentioned earlier, Shimizutani is the safest place in the Asai family. In other words, Shimizutani is allowed to set up a hall in Shimizutani, and only then can you see that Isono Mitsuko Chang is an important figure for the Asai family. As soon as I saw Lord Isono, Kellogg frowned a little, and Lord Left whispered, "You can do it," "You can do it," and so on.

I hear that Lord Isono Chang, who bows his head with a peck against me as a young man, is a hard-won civilian like Jia Wei when he looks at it alone, but he's ahead of the line in almost all the battles against the hexagon according to what he sees. Originally there was no difference in national power, but also not in the vanguard of the Oda family, which dealt with the poorly cohesive Saito family. It would not have been easy to say that it had faded, but it was ahead of the Asai family against the Hexagonal family, which now has the best fighting power in Kinai. Earlier, I praised the Isono Lord as appearing past forty, but in fact, it was about thirty years old, the same age as Saitama Daishi and the Left Lord.

"It was a good story, a good meeting. We will never forget this day, Minchang."

"It's the same thing as this one."

I didn't dare to be told this way, they put me through the mansion. Already for an hour, aside from what thoughts the Asai family was waiting for, I had a good time inside.

For a while after he let me through, Lord Isono talked about how Sister Shi was doing well and wanted me to say anything if there was any inconvenience, which Asai people would naturally talk about in welcoming Oda people, but eventually the story became about me.

"A boneless person falling over the edge of the martial arts. At best, the books I read are about the book of war. If you write such interesting stories as bright and intelligent as Lord Bandage, you will not be able to read such bloody odours as those in the Book of War."

The bandage pseudonym is convenient, and the bandage standard for the bamboo jane brought in by the city sister is very reasonable. After receiving such compliments, Lord Isono said to me that way. It wasn't a ridiculous way of saying that you wouldn't know, such as the law of war. Rather, Lord Minchang even seemed to embarrass himself that was all he knew.

"No, that's not true. I do like certain diary literature and stories, but I also read the seven books of the Wu Jing about the Warring States policy, the Thirty-six Plans of the Warring States, etc. Avoiding the Book of War is a fool's idea because it stinks of blood, it's not elegant, etc."

I said it with a sense of encouragement because Lord Isono said it with regret. I'm not lying. Every hard-working sentence has a difference in technology, and they're all honorable.

"Are you left-handed, if so, have you read the Combat Sutra?

Cane, I heard, and for a moment the letters didn't come to mind. But when my memory hit me about the book, I accidentally leaked a similar exhale to my sigh.

"Again, you've got an unexpected name. As a matter of fact, I haven't been able to read through all the battles yet. Sun Tzu, I am very fond of you, but I am confident that you understand what you have acquired."

In the seventh book of the Book of the Wu Dynasty, the War Power Thirty-six were all born on the continent. The Battle Sutra has auxiliary content about Sun Tzu, one of the seven books of Wu Jing. It's an aid, but if you haven't read Sun Tzu or Shi Tzu in the first place, you won't be able to grasp the contents, and therefore the book itself won't spread much. I also came to Tsushima Harbor to the extent that the merchant happened to have bought some of the books and read them.

"But that's in the good book. When I read it, it was as if it had become public."

"Do you understand!?

Lord Isono rejoiced when he just hit his knee and let his body twitch forward. I'm not surprised by that. Because I've seen so many human reactions before that I've found people who can talk to each other about their favorite books.

"Yes, I'm not going to deny 'Soldiers are a trick', but it's what I really deserve to call a Japanese military law book, which sums up the samurai-like ideas of a magnificent Japanese book"

When I say, Lord Isono says, "You know what I mean! 'and stretched his temper to the full surface. As a matter of fact, I don't think the whole battle scripture is good. Because I feel like the fighting scriptures are' everything feels like it 'or are slightly too biased towards psychology. Admittedly, the squarely grand breeze I mentioned earlier is good looking, but I also think it's good looking to survive and win even after sipping muddy water or being scolded by animals. But there are no lies and lots of good content in the word that you deserve to call it a Japanese book of military law.

"You're in a boulder. As a matter of fact, I got the fighting sutra by chance. I have my own annotations…"

"The rare literature available is that Yatenori Kotani is able to acquire the artifacts of Kyoto, Sakaki, or Osaka Castle through Biwako Lake. As far as I envy Ozhang's countrymen."

"What do you say? We hear that a lot of things and people arrive in Ozhang's harbor every day."

Thus, Lord Isono spoke of all the fish that had obtained water. That's how I talk to Lord Isono. One thing I thought I had achieved when I came here.

I can't be too alert just because I look like him, but I've been watching out for him since before I met him, and I wanted to get along if I could. The reason for this is one, because my mother said so. "If we can meet Lord Isono Chang, we can get acquainted and make sure we know each other's face names."

I don't think about why my mother said that because it's useless to just think about how she has knowledge of one warlord in another country in the first place as usual. But there's always some kind of support for what my mother says. That's as if you knew the answer at the earliest.

As such, the story finally returns to the present.

"If you don't mind, why don't you take home a battle sutra written by a certain person?

That's what Lord Isono suggested to me when I was finally ready to be heard from the lady.

"Thank you for that."

I really appreciate it. The same goes for the battle scriptures, but the more the book is a masterpiece, the more paper pieces there will be, two volumes and three volumes. Then, in the first half of the content, there are many things that have fallen out of the middle. That's why I can only read some of the fighting scriptures.

"However, in how many minutes of war will that be the next opportunity? I don't have any money to pay, I don't have any things."

When I said that, I praised him, no, no, Lord Isono waved and responded.

"I don't need any money or things. If you insist, please write the rest of" Grandpa Gen "as soon as possible."

"With that said, it was a mouthful that you knew from earlier that someone was writing an awkward and stupid story."

"No, no matter what, it's not awkward. I can't help but laugh when I read that story at home. Sweet romantic tan like a proverbial tale honestly doesn't suit my skin. I don't think I'm going to taste it in a book now, because I've seen it many times in action like the Heijia story. But the story that Lord Bandage will write is good. With all that laughter, I feel the power gushing out of the bottom of my belly."

"It's scary to say you can praise something like that so much, but where was it read?

"The ladies with the princess spread the word to our children. From there, I read something and it was so interesting that I introduced it to my surroundings."

Sister City, you've got plenty of space inside. I mean, what did Kotani humans think when they saw princesses from other countries who diffused that stuff as soon as they moved in? I don't seem to have such bad feelings about Lord Isono.

"That depends, so be sure to have one"

When you say that and you can bow your head down, it's better to say no as soon as possible. I put my index finger up after I said thank you.

"I just want to borrow a piece of paper later because I'm so sorry I just got it. There's something there. I'll write you a pseudonym for a bandage. Stick it on the wall and don't use it as a hands-on example for the kids."

At the very least, I suggested a thank you, and Lord Isono told me to move from the receptionist where he was very pleased. After the mansion, travel with prepared horses. The destination was not Honmaru or some fort, but another mansion in Shimizu Valley. Exceptionally larger and more luxurious than any other mansion, however, it is clearly a mansion inhabited by the Lord of this valley or its equivalents.

"Come here."

Lord Isono urged me to continue down the hall. The mansions and hallways of the Asai family, which had sometimes fought with famous names such as Hexagon and Asakura in Kichinai, close to Kyoto, seemed more sophisticated than those of Oda.

"The Oda family is a messenger, and their sister and eldest son are light-hearted."

In the back of the passage, it was not Asai's head, Nagataka Asai, but a man of the same age who was older than Lord Isono and who was about to plug into his early years.

"Are you...?

I remained unaware of your name or position, but I found out that you were not the one I could ask who you were. Sitting here waiting has already shown its size, and even if it isn't, it's not normal for my eyes to look at me. There's no doubt that a man who's dived the training ground has laid down rules about me with some hostility and strong vigilance.

"Dear Kosuke Miyauchi and Nobunaga Oda Ueda, I have brought you your eldest son, Nobunaga Takeshi."

Lord Isono says. Sasuke Miyauchi and I called about a man in his official capacity, not his name. From what my mother has told me, there is only one person in this Shimizu Valley who is called in that capacity.

"It is an honor to receive your kind words for the first time from Mr. Sasuke Asai Miyauchi," Azawada Soy Uhisa ". Nobunaga Ueda Uesuke is located in Shinjong Kabuchi and Shinjo Kabuchi. We would now like to thank the Asai family for their help in the war."

Deeply bowing his head, he followed me, and the Left Hall and Koron continued to bow their heads. It's very comforting to have someone with a big body and grandeur behind you at a time like this.

"... it must be a rumor"

Sharp, Kuzheng Asai, staring at me as if to look at me, told me to roar.

"Rumors, is it?

"Master Left, how old will you be?"

"Be fourteen"

"In that year, when I heard the official position, I immediately identified Noon as Kuzheng Asai, and I greeted him brilliantly. Seeing Noh's face, he tightened his expression saying that he should not be alarmed. You deserve Ozhang's Kirinko, you behave brilliantly."

The staring expression was praised with an abominable tone. I definitely kept it as a compliment, so I thanked him and bowed my head, and he kept talking as if he didn't see me behaving like that.

"I read the book you wrote. Non laughed off too. Brilliant stuff. The same is true of talent for making people laugh, but it is brilliant to describe it in a sentence, while making it easier for everyone to read by using the expression soft letters called pseudonymous characters. Instead of teasing me about intelligence, I was taught that it was the only way to tell it. Makoto, you're a genius."

More and more, the words of praise become excessive, and the contra-proportionate and abominable tone is also tightened.

"Ki-moon, would you agree with me?

"Sincerely, there is nothing to be surprised about today. Even on its own, it has the ability to embark on business such as creating bandage pseudonyms and compiling kanji characters. In addition, you have the courage not to bend what you believe is right, whether you are blamed for it by a minister."

"Oh, no, it's too much of a word for you"

Even though I was praised, I felt like I was being cornered for some reason, and I blocked the conversation. It was also the first time Kuzheng Asai had asked about the presence of a man of high stature known as Hajigamin.

"Can you spare yourself? I don't think so."

"The master will be absent. I didn't do anything to create a pseudonym or compile kanji."

"Master Left, Happy Righty Gate. Lord Ribbon's mother is such a talented woman that she is called Inari's incarnation. A good master, a good mother, I guess."

"Cheng Cheng, I had lost track of that. Mother of Jianzhen Imako, maybe you should call it the ceremony section now."

Known. Everything I've been through my whole life, even about my mother.

"You saw Kirinko's talent in Grandpa Gen. Lord Bandage, read your source story naturally."

"Yes."

The slight departure of the conversation from mine led me to answer with relief.

"Surprisingly few have suppressed the edition of Uji Ten. It should be called a technique with moves, such as the smell of miso and liquor that reminds you of Kaoru and the Smell Palace."

"It's just a joke"

I answered with my head down. Speaking of source stories, the protagonist is Mr. Kwong Yuan and everyone knows. However, that does not apply to the edition of Uji Ten Posts. After Mr. Koyuen's death, your stepson Kaoru is the hero's story.

"The feeling of a son with a great father, perhaps you can understand it if you become Lord Kaoru, you and Lord Kaoru have a lot in common."

"Common denominator, is it?

"Dear Left, For example, appearance, I saw the Sukeshi Ueshiro heading to Sawayama, but it looks a lot like the Ribbon Knife. Both Mr. Koyuen and Kaoru are beautiful men. Let's be very similar."

At some point, the abominable tone lurked in accomplishment. Are you really going to talk about classical works here?

"Be very similar to the fact that you are neglected by my father."

When I was so alarmed, Zun and words that sounded on the bottom of my stomach were bumped.

Kaoru's you were externally said to be the son of Mr. Light Source, but you were the son of his real iniquity and neglected by his father, Mr. Light Source. For this reason, Kaoru will want to surrender the world to the Buddha Gate.

"Well, I'm not neglected by my father, I'm different from you Kaoru."

"Well, this is healthy and healthy, not neglected by the fact that he was in his eldest son but didn't succeed the governor, and on the contrary, he was kicked out by another house"

"Your words are too much, Master Miyauchi."

There, a man called Happy Righty Gate opened his mouth.

"If you don't succeed the housekeeper, you have no choice but to avoid a fight over your house. Mr. Uesuke also sent a bandage as his own name. Put on a trustworthy and elite offering. Could it be a sign that our Asai family is trusted, and that the knife is important?"

"Well, you're right, Happy Righty Gate. Non made a mistake. I'm sorry, Lord Bandage."

The words of Happy Righty Gate seemed to lift me up on the surface, but in fact they cast doubt on me.

"A small number of people came to Kotani who didn't know if they were enemies or allies. Aren't you neglected by your father? '.

The Asai family is currently surrounded by three major forces. The Oda family to the east, the Hexagonal family to the south, and the Asakura family to the north. The Asai family had been subordinated to the Hexagonal family in this generation of Kuzheng. From there, it was the present day, Nagasaki Asai, who rebelled and struck the Hexagon family hard. Apart from that, he has a long-standing friendship with the famous Echimae Asakura family in the north from his predecessor, Suseisa. This time Ueno was originally supposed to be led by the Yokomae Asakura family. The bowl came around to my father because it was useless. The Asai family is in the middle of these three forces, but also in a good position: the eastern shore of Lake Biwa. That's what all three families want to do if they can get on their side.

For example, if you are going to be on Asakura's side, you may create a situation where you do not move the soldiers and wait for the Oda Hexagon to become exhausted in a phase fight, and Uemura still has to be Asakura. In order to crush the Oda family more aggressively, it may be tied to the hexagon again to inhibit Uelo. Naturally, there will be an option to grow in power in those feuds and eventually aim under heaven. As my father, I want the Oda family to take sides and help me complete Ueno. So it's up to you to hasten the city sister, the trump card, into your dowry.

As far as I can tell, tying with the hexagons is unthinkable at present and most likely with the Oda family. Because, as I mentioned earlier, the city sister took him in, and the president became my father's brother-in-law. The letter of the chief of the chief ministry was taken from the father Nobunaga, and the relationship between the two is close.

But the last one, the possibility of connecting with the Asakura family, is still deeply ingrained. The reason is twofold, one being that the Oda family that captured Mino bordered the territory with the Echimae Asakura family. Nishi Mino has been under pressure from Asakura in the north for years and is never close. Nowadays, the ministers of both households have repeatedly provoked each other.

Another reason, that's in the man in front of you, Kuzheng Asai. This man is the head of the pro-Askura faction. Even though he has hidden away, he is now a contemporary with hidden influence. We cannot ignore the possibility that the pro-Askura faction, or the anti-Oda faction, will bring him together.

In the future, I can see in about ten days what the relationship between the Oda family and the Asai family will be. That is, send out soldiers or not to hexagonal attack. How many soldiers would you send out if you were to? Including the neighborhood, I had received advice from my mother beforehand and listened to people to watch out for. Same goes for Lord Isono, and I also heard the names of such heavy ministers as Akao Kiyotsuna (Akao-yuna), Haibei Tsunami Parent (Kai-tsunaka), and Naosuke Endo (Euno Naosuke). And it was Kuzheng Asai who led the effort. I am now being hunted down by Kuzheng.

"Sincerely brilliant and fruitful, Kirinko Hall. If it is, I want to hear it. You are."

At this time, I was completely at the forefront, I didn't know what to say, but I was caught in the skill of Kuzheng Asai. I'm still a child, no matter how I get around, and from the age of a thousand people in Kaiyama, that's what I was able to do to twist the baby's hand.

"Give me Ozhang."
