Warring States Eagle

It's a pity that Zheng Liang didn't wait for the news of Mao Li and his son, but waited for someone who poached the wall.

It was a sunny morning in May.The crystal dew glistened in the sunlight.

On a small road in the castle town of Kishidake Castle, two guys dressed as traveling merchants were walking slowly carrying goods that were once covered with thatch.Since the Luo family has recently been vigorously promoting the independent commerce and trade of the people in the territory, there have been more and more such wandering merchants who specialize in selling goods everywhere in the territory.

Just as the two were walking forward slowly, the person walking in the front stopped suddenly, then turned around without saying a word, pulled up the person behind who was carrying the goods, and quickly hid in the nearby In a hidden corner.

The person who picked the goods was about to ask what happened, but through the gap in the corner, he saw a strange patrol team composed of children ranging from seven or eight to ten years old, carrying bamboo guns on their shoulders, With strange steps, they walked one by one from the small road where the two of them stayed just now.

"Isn't it just a few children? No need to hide?" After the patrol team left, the picker complained.

The first middle-aged man gave the complainer a blank look.I thought to myself: Why did the lord send such an idiot to assist me?Didn't he know the situation here before coming here?Now the wooden identification cards on their bodies are forged. Once they meet the patrol team and they compare them, they will definitely find the problem.What's more deadly is that the Luo family's territory implements a policy of ultimatum. Traveling monks and businessmen who do not have a ultimatum will be directly arrested.

The middle-aged man complained about the attendant behind him, while carefully confirming the situation outside.After making sure that the patrol team was far away, he returned to the path with his followers behind him.

The two walked forward.After a long time, I finally came to a small courtyard.I saw that this small courtyard is all built with bricks and tiles.It looks quite neat and elegant.Branches protruding through the courtyard wall.You can imagine the beautiful courtyard view inside.

After secretly scanning the situation around the yard again, the middle-aged man slammed on the wooden gate of the yard after confirming that no one was following him.

"Squeak!" Not long after, the wooden door opened a crack, and a child with a small surname stuck his head out of the crack, and asked, "Who are you?"

"Excuse me, is this the residence of Lord Kakukuma?" The middle-aged man immediately said kindly.

"Exactly, are you looking for my lord?" Xiao Xing asked.

"Yes, please give this letter to Kakukuma-sama. Just say that an old friend is visiting." The middle-aged man said immediately.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll go in and report." After Xiao Xing received the letter, he closed the wooden door again.

At this time, Kakukuma Ishimune was enjoying morning tea in the yard.Tea is good tea.The name of this tea is "Humble Room Fragrant Tea", which is a famous tea unique to Luo's family.It is specially made by collecting fresh and tender tea leaves that have been moistened by dew overnight on the mountain in the early morning.It is said that Ouchi Yoshitaka and Shogun Ashikaga Yoshiharu who drank this tea praised it very much.

"My lord." At this moment, Xiao Xing walked into the yard and saluted Kakukuma Ishimune.

"What's the matter?" Kakukuma Ishimune knew that if there was nothing else, Xiao Xing would definitely not bother him at this time.

"Master Patriarch, there are two traveling merchants who claim to be your old friends. This is a letter they asked the villain to forward to you." Xiao Xing replied in a serious manner.After speaking.He also respectfully delivered the letter to Ishimune Kakukuma.

"Oh?" Kakukuma Ishimune was taken aback when he heard that.old friend?Where did the old friend come from?Could it be?Thinking of this, Kakukuma Ishimune immediately opened the letter and began to read it.

With the in-depth reading.Kakukuma Ishimune's expression became cloudy and uncertain.In the end, he even put down the letter and hesitated instead.After a long time, he let out a long sigh, and said to himself: "Is Yuanfu yet? It seems that he is expected to succeed the family governor."

Afterwards, the courtyard fell into silence again.Xiao Xing, who was kneeling on the ground, was very curious about the strange behavior of the Patriarch, but still knelt on the ground obediently, waiting for Kakukuma Ishimune's order.

"Are the guests still waiting outside the door?" After a long wait, just when Xiao Xing felt his legs were a little numb, Kakukuma Ishimune's voice finally sounded again.

"Yes, Master Patriarch."

"Let them leave immediately and tell them that there are only retainers of the Luo family here." Kakukuma Ishimune said indifferently.

Xiao surname bowed immediately and left.If he doesn't walk, his legs won't move anymore.He didn't dare to complain to the protagonist Kuma Ishimune, but he wouldn't have a good look at the two guys who came outside the door.

"You go. The Patriarch doesn't want to see you, and he also said that there are only the retainers of the Luo family here." Xiao Xing rubbed his knees and said coldly.It's just that when the voice passed through his undeveloped throat, the originally cold tone seemed very immature, and no one could hear any anger.

Outside the door, the two of them were nervously waiting outside after getting Xiao surname's reply, and then they glanced at each other.Suddenly, the middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something, and immediately pulled the attendant beside him, and quickly got into a path beside the yard.

"Hey, your things..." Seeing that the two of them didn't even want the travel goods they brought, Xiao Xing immediately shouted.Although he was very displeased with these two guys who made him suffer in vain, his kind little heart immediately reminded him loudly after seeing that these two guys left something behind.

But when the middle-aged man heard Xiao surname's shout, instead of stopping, he ran even more happily. In a blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared without a trace.

"Are they gone?" When Xiaoxing reluctantly returned to Ishimune Kakukuma to report the scene just now, Ishimune Kakukuma's voice sounded first.

"Yes, Patriarch." Xiao Xing replied respectfully.

"Yeah." Kakukuma Ishimune nodded after listening.Then he stood up quickly, picked up the letter on the table and walked directly out of the yard.Only the little surname left in the yard stunned.

"Xiao Xing, what's the matter with the Patriarch today?" At this time, another gentle female voice sounded in the yard.The owner of this female voice is none other than my mother herself.

"Ah!" Hearing my mother's question, Xiao's face was covered with black lines.I thought, how do I know what's going on?Today, the performance of both the guests and the owner himself is mysterious...

Just as the guests from Kakukuma Ishimune's family came and left, Masara was reviewing territorial affairs in the castle tower of Kishigake Castle.With the expansion of the territory's stalls, there will naturally be more affairs.In addition, many affairs were carried out by Zheng Liang combined with the knowledge of later generations, without his final check, it really would not be possible.Besides, as a qualified patriarch, one must be diligent, so as to make all the retainers feel at ease.

Just when Masaragi had just approved a plan for the construction of a territorial school, Masanobu Honda, who was surnamed outside the door, walked in and reported that the military adviser Ishimune Kakukuma had something important to report.

"Your Majesty, I have come here to make an apology." As soon as he entered the castle tower, Kakukuma Ishimune knelt down on the floor and pleaded guilty.

"Military officer, what's the reason?" Zheng Liang, who was checking another document on the situation of the territory, was slightly taken aback when he heard Ishimune Kakukuma's plea. road.

Without saying a word, Kakukuma Ishimune came to Masara on his knees holding the letter high.Kakukuma Ishimune knew very well in his heart that with the ability of this young Patriarch, sooner or later he would find a way to know what happened in his mansion today, so he simply came directly to apologize to Masaragi.This is the best way to save your life.

Masara took the letter in Ishimune Kakukuma's hand suspiciously, opened it and read it.Although the content of the letter was a bit shocking, Zheng Liang remained calm from then on to the end.

"Yuanfu? It's also named Otomo Yizhen. Shi Zong, what do you think of this young master of Otomo's family?" Zheng Liang asked with a smile while looking at Kakukuma Shi Zong after reading the letter.

"I haven't had contact with anyone from Otomo's family for a long time, so I'm afraid I can't give an appropriate comment." Kakukuma Ishimune replied with his head down.

"It's okay, let's talk about your previous impression of him." Zheng Liang still kept smiling.
