Naomasa Ii shook his head, suppressed his jealousy, and changed the topic.
"Sage, I acted out of proportion and caused this disaster.
But Hanzawa Naoyi is really innocent. She just understands my orders and is loyal to her duties. Please give her some mercy."
Yiyin interrupted.
"Scare away the four nuns, make the major corruption case in Guandong public, and plunge Guanbazhou into chaos. Is this also your order?"
Ii Naomasa was choked. He was about to say something, but Yoshihiro stopped him.
"Don't take the blame for her, I know you can't do such a thing, you understand the importance.
The Kanto war has lasted for hundreds of years, and the situation in various places has become so complex that it is almost inextricable.
I finally suppressed all the forces, hoping to get rid of this generation of old foxes peacefully, and wait for the young people to mature and take charge of their own affairs to reshape the order of Kanto.
But what about Naoyi Hansawa? In order to implement her beliefs, she turned over the table without caring about the overall situation!
Don't I know how much dirt is hidden under the table, and I need her to remind me how dirty Kanto is? It's easy to pierce the window paper, but can she solve the problem for me?
Also, she was able to coerce the four nuns who were in charge of the accounts, which showed that she already had enough evidence in her hands.
But instead of sending the evidence back to Tongxin Secretariat, she chose to use it to frighten the four accounting nuns, scare them away and plunge Kantong into chaos. Is this also loyalty?
You said she was loyal, so why didn't she hand over the evidence and let me decide the matter?
I can tell from her desperate efforts to completely ignore my difficulties and make sure to thoroughly expose this matter.
In her heart, I, the saint, is not important, but implementing her own justice is the most important thing.
She can ignore the interests of the Spall family for her own ideals, so if I call her a traitor but a loyal person, am I wrong?"
Naomasa Ii was speechless by Yoshigan, and it took him a long while to squeeze out a sentence.
"Maybe she has her own difficulties."
Yiyin sneered.
"Who doesn't have difficulty? You don't have it, or I don't have it? Who doesn't have difficulty living in this troubled world?
Hanzawa Naoyoshi desperately broke through this layer of window paper and messed up Kanto. Should I still praise her and reward her?
She likes to carry out her own justice, which is good. Then go to prison and carry out her justice. When I return to Kanto, I will never let her off easily.
You don't need to plead for her anymore. She refuses to hand over the evidence to you, which shows that in her heart, your immediate boss may not be reliable.
Naozheng, you are still too naive and too easy to be emotional.
You are young and powerful, and you have a high position, so you should always look more, think more, and don't jump to conclusions on everything, otherwise you will be easily taken advantage of."
Naomasa Ii suppressed his discomfort, but finally expressed his grievances.
"You always say that I trust others, but you are not in Kanto and don't know the truth, so you don't easily make a conclusion for Hanzawa Naoyi."
Yiyin saw that she felt wronged like a child and couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, okay, you eat first, and I promise to give Naoyi Hanzawa a chance to defend himself, okay?"
Naomasa Ii nodded obediently and picked up the bowl and chopsticks again. Just as he was about to pick them up, he suddenly looked timidly at Yoshigan and asked in a low voice.
"Then I'll face the wall and think about it..."
Yiyin was furious for a moment, this little girl really pushed her too far, and sighed helplessly.
"Okay, you don't have to face the wall and think about it, this is all right, my Miss Ji Samurai.
Hurry up and eat, the food is getting cold."
Seeing Yoshiyin's helpless expression towards him, Naomasa Ii felt a sweet feeling in his heart, and his meal became much more delicious.
That day, Ii Naomasa had been starving since the oil and rice hadn't come in yet. Now that his thoughts were gone, he wolfed down his food, which made Yoshigage's mouth twitch.
"Eat slowly, be careful of choking, ugh."
The candlelight flickered, Ii Naomasa lowered his head to eat, and a man and a woman were alone in the same room, which made her heartbeat suddenly accelerate.
Yiyin watched her movements suddenly become clumsy and asked with concern.
"What's wrong? Are you really choking?"
Naomasa Ii shook his head.
"No, no, saint, do you still remember the first time we met?"
Yiyin smiled.
"Of course I remember, it was in the autumn and winter seven years ago, when I had just finished playing Kawanaka Island.
Ii Naotora took you all the way from Toe Country over mountains and ridges to Echigo Country to find me and ask me to take you in."
Naomasa Ii looked at Yoshiyin and recalled the past, and couldn't help but feel a little crazy.
"The saint remembers it very clearly."
Yiyin sneered.
"How could I not understand that such a cute little girl made me feel pity for her, so I relented and kept her by my side.
Who would have thought that that sweet and sensible little elf would now turn into a troublemaker, upright and quarrelsome with anyone, which always gives me a headache."
Naomasa Ii was teased so much that his face turned red and he couldn't help but said angrily.
"Saint...how can I be...so bad..."
In the dim light of the candle, a pair of people were reflected in the reflection. The girl Naomasa Ii was very worried. She looked at Yoshiyin with affectionate eyes and complained in a low voice.
"Sage, I have grown up and am not the little girl you talk about."
Yiyin looked at her shy appearance as a young girl, her beautiful eyes were looking forward to her, her cheeks were smiling, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, there was a special charm between her dodging and looking, and she couldn't move her eyes away for a moment.
"Yes, my Zhizheng has grown up."
Naomasa Ii's face turned even redder when Yoshigan stared at her, and her voice was as low as a mosquito, whispering.
"Saint, I...I...I like you."
Yoshigan came back to his senses, looked at Ii Naomasa, and smiled.
"I know."
The sound of liking seemed to give Ii Naomasa great courage, and his voice amplified uncontrollably.
"It's not an ordinary like! I really, really like you!
I... like you, I have always liked you... please... please..."
Ii Naomasa couldn't continue talking, Yoshiyin's hand had already touched her forehead, brushing her hair that was messy due to excitement, and tucked it behind her ears.
"My little Naomasa has grown up and knows how to like people, which is a good thing.
But you have to think clearly, your life is still very long, don’t tie yourself up early, you are still young, and you still have a lot of time to slowly think about whether it is an impulse or whether you really want to.”
Yiyin stood up, smoothed the wrinkles in his clothes, and continued.
"That's it for today. I still have a lot of paperwork to deal with when I get back, so I'll leave first."
Yoshigan turned around and walked out. Naomasa Ii sniffed and couldn't help shouting.
"Why can it be done in Kamao clan! Why can't I! You just treat me like a child! In fact, I know everything! I understand everything!"
Yoshihiro looked back at the aggrieved Ii Naomasa, put his index finger on his lips as a sign of silence, and then sighed.
"Do you have to yell for everyone to hear? I just asked you to think about it carefully, and I didn't say I wouldn't give you a chance.
Hey, I’m gone now, I have a headache.”
Ii Naomasa was so surprised that he subconsciously covered his mouth. Seeing the helpless look on the saint's face, he sighed again and then left his room.
After the saint left, Ii Naomasa's face became even redder and redder, almost bleeding, but he was very happy in his heart.
But when I looked back, I was so ashamed that I couldn't even raise my head. I could only stare at the candlelight in front of me in a daze, not knowing what this young girl was thinking about.
Yiyin took a few steps out of the room, turned around and saw the figures in the room, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The Tongxinzhong Group is his central foundation. Kamao Clan and Ii Naomasa are both his family backgrounds. They can be regarded as the most trusted warriors raised by him.
The village of Pu Sheng was in harmony with him, which solidified the relationship between the two parties, which was beneficial to him in consolidating his central power.
Naomasa Ii wanted to follow him, but Yoshihiro found no reason to refuse.
Whether it is for political needs or emotional sustenance, it is beneficial and harmless for Naomasa Ii to become his own woman.
He has been growing his own cabbage for seven years, and he definitely doesn't want to be overrun by outside wild boars. Although it seems like the old cows are chewing the tender grass, he is naturally happy that the fat water does not flow into other people's fields.
Recalling Naomasa Ii's shy expression just now, before I knew it, this girl had grown as beautiful as a flower.
The atmosphere just now was really good, but it was a pity that Yiyin had calmed down his blood at the Hamo clan village earlier. At this moment, he was powerless and could only pretend to be a gentleman and retreat first.
The first in-depth communication must be a good memory for this girl. Yiyin is not in a hurry, he is very busy recently anyway.
When Yoshigan returns to Kinki this time, his most important political task is to balance the divine forces on both sides of Kanto and Kinki.
Hosokawa Fujitaka, Oda Nobunaga, and Akechi Mitsuhide became pregnant one after another, which made Yoshigan very satisfied and initially perfected his idea.
Yoshihiro is about to go back to Kanto to solve the big problem that Hanzawa Naoyoshi has poked, but before leaving, he wants to work hard and give Maeda Toshiie and Maeda Benefit more opportunities.
The aunt and nephew are both very young, and there is still no heir. The family business is not stable after all. It is better to get the matter done early in order to stabilize the hearts of the two Ji Samurai groups.
Yiyin, who has won three rings in a row in a year, is now very confident in himself. A drop of water can penetrate a stone, and an iron pestle can be ground into a needle. It is nothing more than a quantitative change to a qualitative change.
Therefore, Yiyin doesn't have much energy to take care of Ii Naomasa for the time being, so let's put it aside for now.
Finally, he glanced at the candlelight in Ii Naomasa's room. Yoshigan shook his head and turned away, leaving the innocent girl alone in her first love, thinking wildly.
———
Sakai Port, the headquarters of the Shinsengumi.
The autumn wind was bleak and the weather was getting colder. Ever since she was injured, Takada Yukino was most afraid of the cold weather, so she lit a bonfire in her courtyard room early to warm up the basin, which even made it too hot.
Takada Harano came to see her sister. As soon as she entered the house, she took off her coat. She wore a thin silk dress, revealing her slim figure. Her face was white and tender. She didn't know what she had applied to moisten it, and she was not afraid of drying in the greenhouse.
Yono followed the saint when he was young, and he is still twenty-five or six years old. Although he is a few years younger than Oda Maeda and others, in this ancient time when the average life span of a person is less than thirty, he can be considered old-fashioned.
Ever since she had a skin-to-skin relationship with the saint, she has become very concerned about skin care. She spends a lot of money on her appearance, body shape, and skin, and she is extremely attentive to it.
On the contrary, Yukino has always been ill, and her delicate face is natural. The two sisters standing together, with similar looks, always give Yangno the illusion that she has spent a lot of money.
After the two greeted each other, Yang Nai touched the sweat stains on his forehead with a silk scarf. He felt that it was a little too hot here, so he turned around and asked the doctor to adjust it again.
Seeing her sister staring blankly at the courtyard outside the door, Yangno couldn't help but snorted.
"You have a big heart. There are many disturbances outside, but you are not affected at all."
Yukino tilted her head towards her sister, as if she was thinking about her sister's words, and asked blankly.
"In troubled times, if people don't die one day, what's the fuss about?"
Yangno stared at Yukino's cute little face and said solemnly.
"What am I making a fuss about? The person who died was Nizi Katsuhisa, the saint's most important minister in Kinki.
Don't mess around with me. Munenomi Yagyu came to visit Sakai Port, and Kondo Isamu asked her to take away Toshizo Hijikata, Souji Okita and the eleven capable swordsmen of the Shinsengumi.
Hijikata Toizan is ruthless and wise, and Okita Souji is the best at killing people. Without your order, Kondo Isamu would not give his right-hand man to Yagyu Munenomi to be taken away.
Who is Yagyu Munomi, she has no right to command the rebellious Mibu Wolf."
Yukino looked at her sister strangely and said.
"The sage ordered the Shinsengumi to cooperate with the Yagyu group. Isamu Kondo was loyal and courageous. Naturally, he put forth his best efforts. Isn't it surprising?"
Yangno was a little restless and looked at the innocent-looking Yukino, speechless for a moment.
Don't look at the fact that Yukino is so ill that she stays in this room to recuperate all day long. When she goes out, she just rides around in the yard in a wheelchair.
But her intimidating power cannot be ignored by anyone, even sister Yangno is no exception.
In the Kyoto Tenchu and the Zhong Fund’s anti-corruption campaign, rivers of blood and heads rolled in every case.
Although Yukino has long since stopped caring about world affairs, Mikazuki Munechika was also worn by Tachibana Kanade and stayed with the saint as Yukino's Kagemusha.
But no one dares to ignore Takada Battousai. Even if she has become a disabled person in a wheelchair, no one dares to forget how terrifying she is.
Your Majesty, please kill first and then kill, the saint has given permission. Takada Yukino is the most ferocious executioner of the Shiba family, and is the back-up man of the saint's King Kong's wrathful eyes.
Yang Na narrowed his eyes and said.
"The relationship between Miburou and the Yagyu-gumi is not good.
This time we will go deep into the Western Kingdom to investigate the cause of Nizi Katsuhisa's death. If we run into any trouble, I'm afraid Yagyu Munomi will blame it all on Miburou, which will be detrimental to us."
Haruno didn't mention the Shinsengumi, but only talked about Miburou, which was also a reminder to Yukino.
The original members of the Shinsengumi were led by Yui Uigahama, but now they have all withdrawn and have become the anti-corruption group overseeing the Shiba Tadashi Foundation.
Miburou became the leader of the Shinsengumi due to his merits, and this is his replacement.
So where did the credit for Miburou replacing Yuigahama come from? It was from Kyoto Tenchu.
The Tenchu in Kyoto caused a lot of commotion. After Yukino was seriously injured and fell into coma, the saint was furious and determined to take revenge. The Secrecy Group, Yagyu Group, and Mibu Wolf were all caught in the whirlpool.
The sharp sword of Miburo was too sharp, and he had conflicts with the third prince of Momochi and Munomi Yagyu, and the situation was not very harmonious.
On the contrary, it was Fujibayashi Muku who provided help to Miburou, and the two sides had some good connections.
The relationship between the parties is very complex.
