After the martial arts conference, Yu Qiushang was taken back to Ruojiang Castle by the guards of Morita Exiang and other guards of the Hoshiyama family. Yu Qiuhei and Imakawa Kaede will stay in Kyoto for one night and will return to Maple Leaf Mountain Castle tomorrow morning to take charge.
The Kyoto residence is quaint and quite interesting. After a rainy day with Yu Qiuhei, Imagawa Kaede shrank in Yu Qiuhei's arms and fell asleep sweetly. Yu Qiuhei looked down and Imagawa Kaede's fair shoulders and plump breasts appeared and faintly appeared, which made him feel hot again. He pulled the quilt and covered Imagawa Kaede's shoulders, worried that she would catch a cold at night.
·
I don’t know when I slept, Yu Qiuping suddenly woke up in his sleep. Imakawa Kaede beside him seemed to be disturbed by Yu Qiuping’s movements. He stretched his waist with sleepy eyes and asked softly: “Hing, what’s wrong?”
Yu Qiuping himself was also a little dazed, but his body seemed to be out of control. He was pushed to stand up by an indescribable force. Then, he walked straight out of the door.
"What's wrong?" Imagawa Kaede was also awakened by Yu Qiuhei's actions, "Is something wrong?"
"Don't worry." Although Yu Qiupi's body was still moving forward for some reason, he turned his head and smiled at Imakawa Kaede, trying to reassure her, "I'll go to the bathroom."
However, as he said this, his steps suddenly became faster, and the scenery around him became blurred in an instant, leaving only a paper door in front of him - the room of Asai Nagamasa, who lived opposite his corridor. In the evening, he and Imakawa Kaede were still having dinner with Asai Nagamasa and Ashi in this elegantly decorated room.
He rushed to the door quickly and opened the paper door suddenly. The one that appeared in front of him was not the familiar room, but an open area - the original room had disappeared. And in the middle of the open area, the burning Xiaogucheng Tianshou Pavilion stood!
Yu Qiuping was shocked and rushed towards Tianshou Pavilion in panic. He jumped over several overturned fire beams and shuttled between the flames. The heat of the fire made him feel like he was about to evaporate. He shuttled through the corridors of Tianshou Pavilion in Xiaogucheng, upstairs, circled, and then went upstairs, and finally rushed to the top of Tianshou Pavilion, where Asai Nagamasa lived. Even though he was still standing outside the door, the shrill and sad crying of the woman in the room was so clear - that was Ashi's voice.
He opened the paper door and saw Nagamasa Asai, dressed in white, standing in the middle of the burning room, facing the moonlight that penetrated out of the window, wiping a sharp rib. Ashi was messy and kneeling on the floor, hugging Nagamasa Asai's thighs tightly, and she was already crying.
"Brother?" "Brother Hongye?" After seeing Yu Qiuping appear, Ashi and Asai Nagamasato changed their heads together and exclaimed in surprise.
"Brother Hongye! Go and persuade Your Highness Changzheng!" As soon as Ashi saw Yu Qiuping coming, he stretched out his hand and wailed, "I don't want him to die! He wants to cut off his stomach! Please persuade him together! I can persuade my brother not to make things difficult for Your Highness Changzheng! Your Highness, I beg you not to die!"
"Brother, take Ashi away quickly. Tianshou Pavilion is on fire, and it will be dangerous if it doesn't leave." However, although Asai Nagamasa also had tears in his eyes, he said resolutely in a deep voice.
"Your Highness! Ashi has never asked anyone in his life. I'm going to beg for you this time, okay?" After Ashi heard Asai Nagamasa say this, tears surged out again, "Ashi is willing to be with you for the rest of his life. Even if he has no freedom for the rest of his life, it doesn't matter if he is under house arrest! We still have Chacha, Achu, Shinjiro, and Ajiang! They are still young and cannot be without fathers! What should they do if you leave, and what should I do!"
"Ashi..." Asai Nagamasa listened to Ashi's crying, and the two men's tears slowly flowed down their cheeks. However, the sound of the surrounding flames swallowing wood became more and more fierce, urging him not to delay any longer. After he hesitating for a moment, he squatted down slowly, and gently fell a kiss on Ashi's pale lips. Looking at Ashi's swollen eyes, he suddenly smiled.
He reached out and helped Ashi clean up his messy hair, and said softly in the gentlest tone of his life:
"Ashi, you are so beautiful."
Then, the hands of Ashi who were tidying up his hair suddenly fell down and hit Ashi hard on the back of the neck.
"I love you."
Ashi's body shook suddenly, her eyes full of surprise and compassion. She used all her last strength and will, and then looked at Asai Nagamasa with a deep look, as if she wanted to deeply engrave his appearance into her mind.
Ashi's body was helplessly collapsed in Asai Nagamasa's arms. A drop of crystal clear tears also slid down Asai Nagamasa's cheeks and fell on Ashi's exquisite face. Asai Nagamasa slowly placed Ashi on the floor, and then pretended to be strong and whispered to Yu Qiuping: "Brother, I've caused you trouble. Ashi and the children, please give me."
Then, a cold light flashed.
·
"Changzheng!"
Yu Qiuping screamed and woke up suddenly in her sleep.
"Is it a dream?" Yu Qiuping covered his head with a severe pain and said to himself in a daze.
Imakawa Kaede beside him seemed to be disturbed by Yu Qiuping's movements. He stretched his waist with sleepy eyes and asked softly, "Hei, what's wrong?"
However, this sentence and the same action as in the situation just now made Yu Qiuping fall into an ice cave instantly.
Which one is a dream? Which one is reality?
He sat up suddenly, but his body couldn't help trembling. His body stood up almost without his control and walked straight towards the door.
"What's wrong?" Imagawa Kaede was also awakened by Yu Qiuhei's actions, "Is something wrong?"
"Don't worry..." Although his voice trembled a little, Yu Qiupi, who walked to the door, turned his head hard and smiled at Imakawa Kaede, "I'll go to the bathroom."
After saying this, he gently closed the door of the room. Then, he immediately walked towards Nagamasa Asai's room with great strides. His steps got faster and faster, and in the end he was approaching sprinting. He rushed to Nagamasa's door of Nagamasa in one breath and pressed his hand on the door handle of Nagamasa's room-
But suddenly I didn't dare to open the door.
In other words, he dared not face the history of his previous life. He dared not face the facts that were likely to happen.
Just as his face was fighting with heaven and man and his body could not stop trembling, the little girl's voice suddenly came from inside the room.
"Mom, there were suddenly heavy footsteps outside! What's going on!"
That's the sound of Chacha.
The little girl's coquettish voice suddenly made Yu Qiuping feel relieved.
"Don't be afraid of Chacha, maybe someone gets up in the morning to go to the toilet." Ashi's silver bell-like voice came, "It's still early, it's just the beginning of the Mao period. Chacha is good, so sleep a little longer."
"Chacha can't sleep!"
"Chatcha is so unbearable. Look how good Achu slept." Ashi was a little blamed, but a voice full of love sounded again.
"That's because Achu didn't go to see Brother Shang's competition together! Brother Shang was so awesome yesterday!" Chacha said excitedly, as if he had waved his two little hands.
"Okay, Chacha, don't disturb my sister until she sleeps." Asai Nagamasa's gentle but down-to-earth male voice rang out immediately, and seemed to touch the little girl's head, "Listen to my mother."
·
Yu Qiuping stood outside the door, listening to the happy and warm conversations of the whole family in the house. He could hear every word clearly, but could not remember a word.
Because there was a voice in his heart that was yelling, as if he wanted to wake him up.
If Yu Qiuping, you don’t do anything, you will never hear such a conversation again.
If history repeats itself, this happy and warm family will soon be broken. This family will each embark on their own tragic lives and will never go back.
Yu Qiuhei did not hesitate and turned his head straight away. He did not worry about his pajamas, but walked directly towards Oda Nobunaga's residence. He explained to the guards on duty at the door that he asked for an immediate meeting, and the guards on duty went in to report.
After a while, the guard let Yu Qiuping in.
After Yu Qiuhei entered the room, he found that Oda Nobunaga was also wearing pajamas and was leaning against the table sleepy. As soon as he saw Yu Qiuhei, he waved the folding fan in his hand in a protest and scolded: "Call Yu early in the morning. If Hongye can't say anything important, Yu will find someone to beat you! Oh no, Yu will find someone to shout you up in the middle of the night every day."
"Yes, lord." Yu Qiuhei gave a serious greeting and sat upright. After Oda Nobunaga saw that Yu Qiuhei was so formal, he frowned slightly and began to become serious.
"Lord, I'm boldly trying to guess the best. I wonder if the lord is going to attack the Asakura family?" Yu Qiuping didn't have the time to talk and went straight to the point.
"Oh?" Oda Nobunaga was stunned when he heard this, then chuckled twice, "How can I see it?"
"At the tea party a few days ago, His Highness Asakura did not come, and no one in the Asakura family came. Such a move is a great disrespect to the Oda family." Yu Qiuhei paused and whispered again: "I thought the lord was furious, but the lord did not. I guessed that the lord might have expected that His Highness Asakura would not come. This banquet was deliberately set up to make the Asakura family make the excuse of "ignoring the general's orders", so that the family can legitimately conquer the Asakura family."
"Hongye understands me! Hahaha..." After Yu Qiuhei said his own speculation, Oda Nobunaga immediately laughed with satisfaction, "I have only discussed this with Sado. I didn't expect that Hongye, you actually understood what I mean by yourself! Very good, very good!"
"The point here is not here." Yu Qiuhei saw that Oda Nobunaga actually agreed directly, and his face darkened: "If this happens, how do the lord plan to worry about the Asai family's position?"
"Oh?" Oda Nobunaga raised his sword eyebrows when he heard this, stared at Yu Qiuhei with his falcon-like eyes, "What does this mean?"
"The Asai family is both an ally of our Oda family and an ally of the Asakura family. If the Oda family and the Asakura family face each other, they will definitely be in a difficult situation! What is your Highness going to do?" Yu Qiuhei asked urgently regardless of Oda Nobunaga's stare.
After saying this, Oda Nobunaga did not reply immediately. Yu Qiuhei didn't know what to ask. The air in the room suddenly calmed down and the atmosphere became a little weird. Beads of sweat were oozing out on Yu Qiuhei's forehead. He didn't understand what Oda Nobunaga's silence meant. Could he really solve the Asai family and Asakura family like in history?
After a long time, Oda Nobunaga suddenly knocked Yu Qiuhei's head with a folding fan, and then smiled and said, "I know that you are Nagamasa's etiquette brother, and you have old friends with the Asai family. You also got married to Nagamasa and Ashi, so you have a good relationship with the Asai family. You are worried that they will come."
"Don't worry, the Asai family is a loyal ally of my Oda family. They have worked hard for the Oda family in several wars, and are incomparable to the Asakura family, which has a ulterior motive." Oda Nobunaga's words gradually relieved Yu Qiuhei's heart, "And the wine bags that Asai Nagamasa and Asakura Yoshike are different from those who are eating and waiting to die. He is a phoenix among people. Otherwise, how could Yu marry Yu's baby sister? Yu values ​​him very much and regards him as Yu's assistant to judge the troubled times. Yu's pace is very fast. How could those heroes who can keep up with Yu's pace let go of such great talents?"
"Don't worry." Oda Nobunaga repeated with a smile, patted Yu Qiuhei's shoulder and promised again, "Before receiving the promise of the Asakura family, Yu would not attack the Asakura family. He would never break up with the Asakura family for the sake of Asakura Yoshike."
"In this way, I'll feel relieved." Yu Qiuping kowtowed repeatedly with relief and said sincerely: "Thank you, lord!"
Yes, in this life, the cooperation between the Asai family and the Oda family is much closer than that of Yu Qiuhei's previous life. Oda Nobunaga's respect for Asai Nagamasa and the bond between the Oda family and the Asai family must be far more than that of the previous life.
