After the assassination incident, Shuang Xie stayed at Nobunaga's house for free for several days. During this period, Sun Yi Xie also took some time to fetch their luggage that they had left elsewhere.
Of course, in addition to picking up the luggage, Sun Yixie also left a message for Xiaomei so that the latter could understand their current situation.
Then they stayed at the Flower Palace peacefully, waiting for Huang Donglai to recover from his injuries.
Some people may have something to say after seeing this. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones. How long will it take for him to recover from his injuries?
Then you should worry more. The reason why Huang Donglai asked Brother Sun to pick up the luggage was because after getting the luggage, he could "make medicine".
Today's Huang Donglai is no longer at the level where he was refining pills randomly and daring to eat them indiscriminately during the Young Heroes Association. He can now combine the various toxicological and medical theories he learned in Huangmen with those he learned in Xuanqi Sect. Combined with the knowledge he obtained, he used some patent medicines he carried in his luggage to create an external wound medicine with amazing effects.
So within a few days, Huang Donglai's injury was 70% to 80% better.
Subsequently, Sun and Huang went to Nobunaga to resign. What was a bit surprising was that when Nobunaga heard that they were leaving, he did not retain them at all, and just arranged for Akechi Mitsuhide to take their place. People see him off.
What is going on?
There are two main reasons for this hidden statement in our book. One is that Nobunaga himself will leave Beijing in two days. , he has no more time to continue to observe Sun Huang and Sun Huang, so unless he immediately makes up his mind to ask Sun Huang to work for him and go with him, it is better not to speak; secondly, after the recent few After getting along with each other for days, Nobunaga feels more and more that although these two guys are very capable, their morals are very questionable, and many of the things they have boasted about before, Nobunaga can basically find out if he thinks about them carefully or checks them afterwards. They were talking about running a train
Combined with the two people's greedy faces before, Nobunaga's evaluation of them gradually settled on "two people from the Central Plains, with certain abilities, but embarrassing to use" Charlatan”.
Nobunaga thought it better not to use such a person, but it is a fact that two people saved his life, so etiquette must be exercised. It was you, Mitsuhide, who brought him in, and in the end, you, Mitsuhide, will go. It makes sense to send them off.
In this way, a few days later, Mitsuhide led several soldiers and personally escorted Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai to the outskirts of Kyoto.
When the two sides parted, Sun Yixie's habit of "loving to talk cheaply" broke out again, so he had to mention it and asked Mitsuhide to greet Nobunaga for them.
Of course it doesn’t matter just saying this, but he added: “It’s okay when he slapped you in public a few days ago. We are all brothers. It’s probably a misunderstanding. Don’t take it to heart.” Ha."
You guys, look at how much he deserves a beating when he tries to persuade people to be generous. His words may sound like good words, but if they fall on the ears of the person involved, they will undoubtedly throw sparks into the frying pan.
Then why does Sun Yixie insist on supporting this fire
p>
Actually, he just wanted to point out "I know you and Nobunaga were acting to test us a few days ago" before they parted ways, and took the opportunity to show off that he had seen through the other party's plan, and teased Mitsuhide by the way. .
Anyway, this place is different, and there is a high probability that the two parties will never meet again in this life, so this cheap talk is in vain.
However, after Akechi Mitsuhide heard this, his inner thoughts were different
Yes, he and Nobunaga were acting that night, but according to the original plan, he was He shouldn't have received that slap; more importantly, after the performance, Nobunaga should have explained the situation to the other retainers, so that not only would Mitsuhide not look embarrassed, but he would also be considered to be particularly trusted by his lord.
Unexpectedly, Sun Yixi’s trick of the West Lake Vinegar Fish caused Mitsuhide to get a hard fight inexplicably, and then the assassins who suddenly came in made Nobunaga lose the ability to explain that they were acting. timing.
Afterwards, Shuangxie helped Nobunaga get rid of the assassin, and Huang Donglai also took advantage of it. How could Nobunaga have the nerve to mention "Mitsuhide and I were playing you just now"
So, Mitsuhide had no choice but to suffer the loss of being dumb and suffered a big humiliation in front of all his colleagues.
In the past few days, he originally felt that this matter was a knot in his heart. Now that Sun Yixie was being treated so little, Guangxiu became more and more angry as he thought about it. There was already some hatred in his anger, but on the surface He still had to force himself to calm down and replied, "It's okay, I don't take it to heart."
The more he said this, the more resentful Mitsuhide felt. He could even feel that in his mind, When he replied this sentence, the soldiers behind him looked at him with ridicule.
"Oh, ok, let's see you later." But Sun Yixie didn't care what he did, he replied in a cheesy manner, and then ran away.
As he watched Sun Huang walk away, Guangxiu said nothing and stood silently, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
After the two of them were completely out of sight, Mitsuhide returned to his usual calm demeanor, turned around and led the soldiers back to the city.
It is the morning, the sun is shining brightly, and it is suitable for traveling.
Shuangxi said goodbye to Guangxiu and walked out for a mile in a blink of an eye. At this time, three more people approached them on the road.
These three are also acquaintances, they are Xiaomei, Azhi and Xiaosuke respectively.
"Hey, we haven't seen each other for a few days, how did you three get together?" Huang Donglai opened his mouth and asked, "Is Brother Chongzang nearby?"
Unexpectedly, this question, But it made those three people look a little sad.
After a brief silence, it was Azhi who replied, "Master Juzo committed seppuku and committed suicide not long ago."
"Ah" although Shuanghe and Juzo didn't have many friends before. Deep friendship, but they were quite surprised to hear the news.
At this time, Xiaomei took over and explained that the assassination operation that night was launched by Juzo as the commander-in-chief.
After the failure of the operation, AshikagaYoshiaki was so angry that he immediately put pressure on the big names who participated in the operation, saying that he would find someone to take responsibility.
Although everyone knows that this kind of assassination operation has a high risk of failure and is not a glorious thing, it is very unpopular to embarrass the surviving assassins at such a huge sacrifice. But Ashikaga is still a general in name only for now. He wants to find someone to vent his anger and show his authority, so the daimyo can only cooperate.
After all, those who participated in the operation were just pawns. In the eyes of this group of warlords, their families could be betrayed when necessary, let alone some of their subordinates who "did the dirty work".
At this point, Ma Shanzhongzang, the "action planner" and "on-site commander", cannot escape his responsibility.
So, when faced with the people sent by the superiors to hold him accountable, Juzo simply proposed that one person should shoulder all the responsibilities. He said that as long as the superiors could let other participants in the action go, he would Apologize by committing seppuku.
The matter of seppuku is not very sacred, but it is a kind of dignity and an indispensable brightening on the hypocritical facade of Bushido.
So when the messengers conveyed Juzo’s request to Ashikaga Yoshiaki, the latter thought about it and agreed.
Mashan Chongzang's sacrifice saved the lives of some people and gave those big shots the dignity they wanted, so he was properly buried after committing seppuku.
Throughout his life, he can never be said to be a good person, nor can he be said to be very bad. He is just a ninja in troubled times, pursuing his ideal of righteousness and going with the flow until the last moment. He casually became a victim of a political conspiracy.
After hearing this, Shuangxi was also filled with sadness.
"So what are you three doing now?" After chatting for a few more words, Sun Yixie asked about Xiaomei's current situation.
"Now that you two have found the clues you need, my mission is completed. I am here to say goodbye to you today." Xiaomei replied, "Brother Juzo is no longer here. Azhi and Xiaosuke are not planning to go back to Takeda anymore. From now on, they will join my ninja house and act with me."
"Very good, then I wish you a prosperous business. "Huang Donglai answered.
"You're welcome, you're welcome." Xiaomei cupped her fists and smiled.
"Then we will meet again later." Sun Yixie then said goodbye to the other party with clasped fists.
At this point, Shuangxie's journey to Japan is finally about to begin its final chapter. Their next stop is Sawuan Country.
There will be staged the battle between Sun Yixie and the sick sword master, and Huang Donglai's battle against the aliens.
