Chapter 30 The last secret

Nobunaga just kicked his pants and walked before returning to his room. "It's impossible not to scold this monkey well. Everyone stand down!" He glared at the little guards, and then sat down on the cushion Nonghime had placed for him. "Alas! monkeys!" "Yes Yes!" "Isn't it too much for you to try food loyally? I see you! Your mind just stops there!" "Oh! If you scold me like that, it means that my loyalty is not enough. I will definitely strengthen it in the future." "I even ate the catfish for me, which is really infuriating."

Nobunaga scolded him in front of the little guards, so everyone turned their attention to Fujikichiro.At this time, the meal that was originally in front of him had been delivered to Nobunaga's room. "Pour wine for me! Ah Nong! Everyone retreat!" Nobunaga raised his wine glass towards Nohime, but finally laughed. "Monkey! When a person is alive, he still needs to use his body and mind, doesn't he?" "Wow! Wow! So you even listened to this sentence?" "You guy is really good! Look at the way you eat fish, the way you drink soup, and the speed at which you eat, you are really outstanding! There is such a loyal minister in this world, who actually said that the fish that is going to be eaten by the master must be tasted by you first." Only then! There are very few loyal ministers like this!"

"Yeah! I thought that in case something happened, I could replace you..." "Ah! You really know how to talk." Nobunaga went on to say: "You want to replace me Nobunaga... Hey! I don't think there will be such a time! You are too cunning, so I have to treat you again. Evaluate it. You see! Such a good fish is now cold, and it was only after it was cold that I thought of sending it to me. It is clearly to let me eat what is left of you! Ah Nong!" "yes!" "You know that the food in your mouth was left over by Tokichiro, so it was delivered to our room!"

"Hahaha! So my job of tasting food is superfluous, so you can eat it with more peace of mind? Right? Mr. Fujikichiro!" Fujikichiro was already blushing. "No! No! You guys have really good mouths. Since you all say that, of course I have nothing to say..." "And he ate two or three fish! I can't believe it." Nobunaga smiled and drank the wine. "For your loyalty, drink up this glass of wine!" "Yes! But when you say that, it makes the atmosphere a little strange." "Don't worry! You can treat the wine as if you want to test whether it is poisonous, can't you? After this cup is dry, I hope you can listen to me carefully, treat what I say as a delicacy, and carefully slowly taste."

"Yes! I will treat your words as delicacies and savor them slowly." "yes!" Nobunaga nodded vigorously and said so. "Monkey! I've decided to hold on to the walls." "What?! Defending the castle...General! Are you kidding me? Now that the enemy army is about to enter Okazaki Castle, I decided to defend the castle temporarily. General, are you..." "monkey!" "yes!" "Didn't I just ask you to take my words as a delicacy and savor them slowly? I said that I want to defend the city, did you hear me clearly?" "Oh...? You said that you should treat words like delicacies and savor them slowly."

"Yes! You have to eat slowly! Because I don't think that even if I go out of the city to fight Imagawa's army, I won't be sure of victory, so I decided to defend the city." "Ugh……?" "Once you decide to defend the city, there are some deficiencies that you, the imperial chef, must be responsible for. When the city is surrounded by the enemy, we cannot buy the supplies we lack, so when you finish drinking this cup today After drinking, you have to act immediately to make up for all the deficiencies in the city." "yes!……" At this moment, Fujikichiro tilted his head strangely.

"The things that will be insufficient when defending the city are... rice, salt, miso, vegetables, but these have already been stored!..." When he was muttering like this, he suddenly slapped his knees and jumped up and said, "Oh ! You have to defend the city!" "You don't understand until now. I think you are too loyal in the kitchen! You can't even turn your head." "No! No! No! Absolutely not like this! Now I understand that you decided to defend the city. Once you decide to defend the city, if there are some deficiencies, I will deal with them immediately. I understand! Good! Now I will do it right away !"

"Wait a minute! It seems that you have completely tasted this dish! In that case, let's have another drink! Ah Nong! Pour wine for him." At this time, Nohime also raised the bottle to him with a serious expression, and said: "Mr. Fujikichiro! Your Highness wants to treat you to a second glass of wine. This is really not a very common thing! You have to think carefully. " Fujikichiro also took the wine glass with a serious expression, and looked at Nobunaga and Nohime quietly. "Then, there's one more thing I want you to savor slowly." "Oh! I'm the world-famous big idiot Oda Kami Sosuke."

"You don't need to tell me about it, everyone already knows it." "So I don't need to change my bad reputation. Before the enemy invades Owari, I will have a good night's sleep!" "So that's how it is! It's more like you!" "When the enemy enters Owari, wake me up, and that's your job, monkey. By then, the defense will have enough time to prepare, and now you will make up for what is lacking!" "Yes!" Fujikichiro replied very happily because he communicated with the other party.With a smile on his face, he walked out happily.
