Akechi Mitsuhide almost subconsciously covered his face.

Shocked and frightened in his heart, he kept thinking about where the flaw was exposed—could it be that the face towel fell off?

But soon, a gust of wind passed through the corridor, and the mask covering his face was blown to fit the skin, showing a silhouette that was much flatter than his real appearance.Feeling the delicate touch on his face that was hard to ignore, Mitsuhide Akechi always felt a little relieved.

His face was always firmly covered by his face scarf, hiding the same appearance as Saburo.

"Why did Mr. Takenaka ask that?" Akechi Mitsuhide replied calmly, "If it was relevant, I would have been 'Oda' rather than 'Akechi'."

"Although it is easy to distinguish because of the difference in tone, you have the same voice as His Highness." Hanbei Takenaka said, "And your eyebrows and eyes are also very similar to His Highness."

"Is that so? I didn't even notice." Akechi Mitsuhide pretended to be relaxed, "It would be a blessing if he could really be similar to His Highness."

"You think so?" Takenaka Hanbei was not confused by his ease, his expression was always a little too calm, "I heard about you in Mino, and you were adopted by the Akechi family as the adopted son and succeeded the existence of the head of the family. .If it wasn't for the civil strife in Mino, Mr. Akechi would have shined brightly."

"Mr. Takenaka is overrated."

"So, Mr. Akechi is not from Mino, right?" Takenaka said affirmatively, "The attendant who brought you to Mino was from Owari. At that time, His Highness had not succeeded as the governor of the house, and Owari had not opened the country—then, what is it?" Reason, Mr. Akechi ran from Owari to Mino"

——Takenaka Hanbei, this person's mind is too meticulous.

Just because what he said was the truth, Akechi Mitsuhide inevitably had a fear of being seen through.He stared at Hanbei Takenaka, the only thing he could think of in the face of such panic was...

It must not be revealed that he is the real Oda Nobunaga.

This kind of cognition unexpectedly calmed him down strangely, the frowning brows were unknowingly loosened, and then tightened again.He forced himself out of the trap of Hanbei Takenaka's questioning, and combed out the rope that Takenaka secretly prepared for him from beginning to end, trying to find a way to deal with it.

I've heard it in Mino—it's impossible, the Akechi family is just a small family, and Takenaka Hanbei had already become the family governor of the Takenaka family at that time. "Akechi Mitsuhide" is such a little adopted son.

As for his attendants being Owari people, this is indeed irrefutable.But as early as a few years ago, the attendant who escaped from Owari with him had died in the father-son war between Saito Dozo and Saito Yoshiryu.Afterwards, he was transferred to Echizen to serve as an official in Asakura, and the servants he hired again only chose Owari people because of his preference and reminiscence of the past.

Takenaka Hanbei is not like Hosokawa Fujitaka, and he has never seen his face.Since leaving Owari, Akechi Mitsuhide has never left a portrait, and his face has no characteristics. Even if someone knows his appearance and tells Hanbei Takenaka, it is difficult to describe a person's appearance as the same as himself.

And Hanbei Takenaka, it is impossible to bring people to meet Saburo just because he guesses that he looks like Saburo-if he is so impulsive, Hanbei Takenaka will not be ordered by Sanlang not to embarrass him when he is in seclusion, and after he becomes an official Immediately get reused roles.What's more, Takenaka didn't know how similar and how similar he was to Saburo.

That is to say, there is no evidence in the hands of Hanbei Takenaka

From "Looks like His Highness" at the beginning, it also naturally changed to "Is Akechi Mitsuhide from Mino?" The topic changed quickly... Is Hanbing Takenaka cheating on him?

Quickly recalling what happened in these days, Akechi Mitsuhide barely remembered the important event of the Oda Army being divided into four armies, and his face hidden under the veil finally stopped being tense.

"It is true that I lived in Owari when I was young, and then I came to Mino. But Mr. Takenaka, don't worry, His Highness knows about it. Perhaps it is thanks to His Highness that I was able to leave Owari." Akechi Mitsuhide Said, "I have known His Highness for a long time, but I ask Mr. Takenaka to keep this a secret."

Takenaka Hanbei smiled noncommittally.

"My loyalty to His Highness is beyond doubt." Akechi Mitsuhide concluded, "Are you doubting Mr. Hashiba?"

"If you say that, Mr. Akechi is the one who suspects Mr. Hashiba," Hanbei Takenaka asked rhetorically.

"—I know that I don't have much influence in the Oda family, and I am honored to be the general of the army because of His Highness's respect." Akechi Mitsuhide said lightly, "Mr. Hashiba can think of using a word in my name for my name. It really flatters me.”

Only now, Takenaka Hanbei nodded, with a fleeting smile on his handsome and melancholy face, he said softly: "I think so too. Mr. Hashiba has placed his status too low—so that It's unsettling."

And the word that neither of them said was—it just happened to be in this sensitive period.

Even if Ashikaga Yoshiaki takes a high official position, with his talent, it is absolutely impossible to buy off the power of the Oda family in Beijing in just a few months.Hosokawa Fujitaka is indeed capable, but he is too smart. Even if he can help the general buy people's hearts, it is impossible for the general to spread his dissatisfaction with Oda Nobunaga so unscrupulously, and even ask the daimyos to attack Nobunaga.

It is difficult to judge whether there is someone who made it easier for the general.

"So far, Mr. Hashiba is still working hard." Akechi Mitsuhide said, "But according to His Highness's thoughts, the next battle will not only involve Mr. Hashiba's army."

The implication is that Akechi Mitsuhide will monitor him nearby.

"I am very grateful. I will also invite myself to join the army." Comprehending what Akechi Mitsuhide meant, Hanbei Takenaka said sincerely, and then suddenly changed the subject, "However, Mr. Akechi and His Highness are indeed very similar."

He stretched out his hand and pointed at Akechi Mitsuhide's only exposed eyes: "The shape of the eyes is exactly the same."

Akechi Mitsuhide calmly said: "Is that so? There are only eyes, and it can't be regarded as similar. It's a pity that I suffer from lung disease. In order to avoid infection, I can't take off the face mask to meet Mr. Takenaka."

"It's okay." Hanbei Takenaka said, "I believe that Mr. Zhizhi is loyal to His Highness."

-

Unlike the miraculous confrontation between Hanbei Takenaka and Mitsuhide Akechi in Gifu Castle, Saburo went out of the city alone after Matsunaga Hide left...

Went to see Matsunaga Hideo.

Such a performance without a sense of crisis, if the retainers of the Oda family—especially those of Shibata’s age—know about it, it will definitely be another round of earnest but useless remonstrance to Saburo.

In fact, although Saburo is strong in action, he is not really without a sense of crisis (really).There are two reasons why he came to Song Yongxiu.

First, when Song Yongxiu sent the letter, he had secretly asked him to meet again in private, and the words contained other news.

Second, Matsunaga showed him... a gang member.

It's not the kind of person who looks like a gang member, but a down-to-earth, real, a gangster who suddenly crossed from the Heisei era on a certain day of a certain year.The randomness of its traversal can be compared with the mode of Saburo's slipping and falling off the wall to cross.

However, it is a pity that Song Yongxiu is not the first time-traveler that Saburo has ever seen—the first time-traveler that Saburo saw and even gave him a gun was Guidie's father, Mino's The former daimyo Saito Dozo.

Incidentally, Saito Dozo was a policeman before time travel. Because the time travel was too long, he completely forgot about the development of history, so he calmly married his daughter Guidie born in the Warring States Period to Oda Nobunaga , and calmly did not remember that he would be confronted by his own son with swords, so that it was difficult for his troops to fight against his son Saito Yoshiryu, and died in the Warring States Period.

This kind of trough and endless time travel shocked Saburo for the first time.As for Matsunaga Hideo who appeared in a suit and floral shirt, he just regretted that he didn't wear a student uniform so that he could come face to face with Matsunaga Hideo, and quickly said: "...I didn't expect to meet the police and gangsters in the Warring States Period."

"Ah, what are you talking about?" Song Yongxiu didn't know what Saburo was thinking. In contrast, he was quite happy when he saw Saburo who also traveled through the same time for the first time. "The name Oda Nobunaga was used in the previous world." Even I have heard it."

"Well, because Nobunaga wants to seize the world."

"Oh, it turns out that Nobunaga was the one who captured the world in the end? No wonder he's so famous." The gang member who had not received many years of education raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and directly accepted this as a future thing, and then waved his hand, "You It doesn’t matter if you win the world, or become a general—don’t try to overwhelm me. Even if you are the last one to win the world, as long as you give me a chance, I will definitely defeat you.”

"It's up to you." Saburo was not provoked, and said casually, "Anyway, I must seize the world."

"Then you'd better do it, I won't show mercy to you—but at the moment, it seems that you may die soon."

""

"Hmph, I said it before, and there are other information." Matsunaga Hideo raised his head and said arrogantly, "The family your sister married to, Asai from Omi, also received a letter from the general—Hisamasa Asai has already The decision is to lean on the general's side."

"It doesn't matter." Saburo, who has never been very good at remembering people, thought for a long time before he remembered that Asai Hisamasa was the father of his brother-in-law Asai Nagamasa.

But he just said casually and calmly: "The governor of the Asai family is Nagamasa, no matter what Asai Hisamasa thinks, it has nothing to do with me."

Matsunaga Hide just laughed and said, "I hope it's what you think—Nobunaga. Don't blame me for not saying it when I died on it."
