Chapter 6 Chapter 5 Goddess Eyeliner

Anxiang City is sixteen miles west of Okazaki, between Okazaki and Kariya.In the academy in Anxiang City, Oda Nobuhide, who came to the city yesterday, was facing the south window full of morning sun, singing "Xuanzong" loudly. 〖The sun and the moon are reflected in front of the old gate, The emperor looks at all the officials, The people of the Li people are full of grace, I heard the sound of worship from thousands of households. 〗 This city was originally owned by the Matsudaira clan, but it was captured by Xinxiu in the early autumn of last year.Although Mizuno Tadomasa of Kariya should be fully credited for capturing the castle, Nobuhide handed it over to Hirotada's uncle Matsudaira Naishen Nobusada.

Xinding came to the door at this time and said: "I have something to report to the lord..." "I'm singing!" Xinxiu snapped, continuing to sing his ballad.Matsudaira Shinden sat obediently in the corridor, waiting for Nobusu to finish singing a section of "Xuanzong". 〖May you return to the Hall of Eternal Life, Talk about resolving this hatred and comfort. 〗 Xinxiu finished singing as if no one was there, and Fang said: "Come in!" His voice was as high-pitched as when he sang the song as a child.Xinding respectfully opened the partition.Xinxiu laughed loudly and said, "Hahaha, you have listened to all the songs I sang. How, are you okay?"

Xinding looked up at Xinxiu in surprise, and replied bluntly: "I don't understand ballads at all." If he answered yes, Xinxiu would definitely laugh at him without any scruples: "What a sycophant. Because of your habit, So far, Okazaki has not been captured." Nobuhide is not a direct descendant of Oda.At that time, Owari’s veteran Shiba clan guarded Oda Yamato, who guarded Kiyosu, and Oda Ise, who guarded Iwakura, respectively governing the four counties of Owari.Xinxiu's ancestor was no more than the elder of Qingxu's family.However, when it came to Nobuhide's generation, he built fortresses in Guye, and built cities in Gudu and Mosheng. Unknowingly, his power overwhelmed the master's house and threatened the surroundings.All this should be attributed to his strong strategy known as "the ghost of Furuno".He instructed the son of Abe Dazang to kill Hirochu's father Kiyoyasu in the battle of Shoushan.Last year, he made a firm promise to his uncle Hirochu, Matsudaira, who has now surrendered: "Take down Okazaki. If you can take down Okazaki, Okazaki is yours. I will be your strong backing." He subtly instigated the letter Ding points the finger at his own family, but he doesn't think Xin Ding is a person worthy of reuse.

Xinxiu said, "What's the matter with you?" "Hautaro Kumawakamiya brought the three captured Yu Da's substitutes and came to ask for instructions on how to deal with them." "Three women? Interesting...let him in." Nobusu laughed again, and the sound shook the room.Xin Ding was about to take the order to retreat, Xin Xiu seemed to think of something again, smiled sinisterly, and said, "Wait!" His scary eyes were exactly the same as Master Ji when he wanted to tease others.Xin Ding lay stiffly on the ground.For him, there is nothing more terrifying than Shin-soo's capriciousness.

"Sakurai's..." Nobuhide said.Sakurai is Nobudaka Matsuhira's residence, "I remember, the doubles you captured are also here, right?" "yes." "Only a fool like you would catch someone like that." "I am guilty." "However, if you can capture Zhen Yuda back, you will already be in charge of Okazaki Castle and the Matsudaira Clan." "I am so ashamed." "Forget it. Even though Kariya and Okazaki won this time, Oda Nobuhide is not as stupid as you." Shinsaka stared at Nobuhide and knelt down to listen to him.

"Do you know why I let Zhongzheng be the vanguard during the siege? Matsudaira Hirochu was furious because of this. No matter how carefully planned by Zhongzheng and Okazaki's veteran ministers, Zhongzheng's son Nobumoto would try to obstruct it. If the grievances between the two families are so easy to resolve, I will Haha." Afterwards, he restrained himself and said, "Okay, before bringing Xiong Ruogong in, bring the three substitutes you captured first." "My lord means that the six girls..." "Exactly. Gathering these women together is a flower viewing party. They should all be young, let them line up in front of the corridor." Xinding took the order to retreat.Xinxiu's eyes were like lightning, he raised his head, smiled, and continued humming the song "Xuanzong".

〖The brocade is the curtain agate steps, Tridacna is the glazed pavilion of the bridge, ...〗 After that, he turned his head and looked at the pool, which was warm and cold, and laughed out loud. "I brought them here." "it is good." "Xiong Ruogong begs to see the lord." Those women were brought by Xin Ding's servants, and Xiong Ruogong was introduced by Xin Ding himself. The surroundings suddenly brightened, like a flower garden in spring.Hataro, who is opposite Nobusu, is already handsome and delicate, and the six young women are even more glamorous, like butterflies dancing around Hataro.However, this is just Xinxiu's sigh, those young women's hearts are not so relaxed, they are full of fear, and Xu is ready to die.They knelt in the porch, looking directly at the fierce Xinxiu, and their lives and deaths were now completely in the hands of this man.

Nobusu looked at the girls carefully.Hataro is as calm as water, but Xinding is worried.Xinxiu said to Bo Taro: "Master Ji was taken care of by you before." "If you don't take good care of it, you will be terrified." "I heard that your arrangements are very thoughtful. You will pity these women today." "yes." "It's useless to ask for mercy, everything is determined by God. Just like snails live on trees, conch live in water." I don't know what Xinxiu thought of again, a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. "In the eyes of a fool, you may not be able to notice the changes in the world. In fact, as long as you don't pay attention, everything will disappear. You should understand the truth. The so-called Fujiwara family, Tachibana family, Genji family, and Hera family are changing one after another. Nothing lasts forever. Saito Dozo of Mino was originally just a quack entertainer with no surname in the Nishioka area of ​​the capital. Matsunaga Tanmasaka used to be a merchant in Omi. Clinging to a wealthy family and saying that he is a descendant of an aristocrat is nothing but making the world laugh."

Hataro stared at Nobuhide, silent.Xinxiu curled her lips, and continued: "The weak must perish. If you are afraid of defeat, you should always pay attention to those snails. Haha, okay, okay, let alone any snails. Today let's enjoy the flowers seriously. From the very beginning Start with the woman on the right, come to me one by one, let me smell the fragrance on your body. Flowers should be fragrant. Come, come here!" His gaze was like an eagle, staring at the woman on the right.The woman stood up abruptly and came into the room.She was pale, but she didn't show any timidity, she only looked at Xinxiu with sharp eyes.

"What is your name?" "Qin Lu." The woman was about sixteen or seventeen years old, and she answered very simply. "I didn't ask your name, but what your father's name was." "I don't know." "How old are you?" "fifteen." "Fifteen... Fifteen. It's still a flower waiting to bloom. Mizuno Tadamasa is so cruel. Don't think I don't know his tricks—these tricks to coax children. Let me guess what Tadomasa told you before going out, He will definitely say that you are the heroines of the Mizuno family, and if you are caught, Xinxiu will never make it difficult for you." Xinxiu saw the woman's shoulders began to tremble, and laughed loudly: "In recent years, more and more people Send the Iga and Kaga ninjas that I cultivated by myself to other places to get news. Mizuno Tadamasa is even smarter than them. He must have told you that no matter where you are, you must always care about Kariya. Hahaha, good Come on, don’t be nervous, don’t tremble. He released the person he cultivated by taking advantage of his daughter’s wedding, and let me catch it on purpose... But I won’t be angry, you are so beautiful, how can I be angry? Haha Ha ha!"

Matsudaira Nobudaka glanced at the women around him, they obviously showed despair. Xinxiu can always see the truth of the matter calmly, and remove salt from other people's wounds.In this sense, he seems to be a sharp magnetic weapon that can attract the other party to his side.While staring at these women, he also had a panoramic view of Matsudaira Nobusada's panic. "Castle Sakurai's eyes are wide open. What a fool, he can only be ruled by Okazaki..." Xin Ding lowered his head with a flushed face, and listened to Xin Xiu's words: "Qinlu? Okay, step back! The next one—" Qin Lu retreated to the corridor.A second woman came in, her face even paler. "name?" "I don't know." "age?" "I don't know." "Oh, you are gardenia, very fragrant, and you have been named after it since then, do you hear me? Go on, next!" Not everyone can bear Xinxiu's cruelty.Xinding has long since dared not look him in the eye.But Xinxiu did not soften his heart because of this, he called those women in one by one, stared at them with creepy eyes, and asked the same question. When the sixth woman was called in, even Hataro couldn't bear to watch any longer.He turned his head to one side, looking at the tops of the podocarpus trees outside the window.It was sunny outside, and a group of white-faced tits gathered in the yard and twittered, which made people's hearts flutter. "Name?" Xinxiu asked again. "My father...is the twenty-third generation of Yuan Jingji..." It was the first time I heard a different answer than before, and Xinxiu couldn't help but groaned.The woman continued: "Dr. Mizunoemon is loyal to the government." "Oh? You are the loyal daughter? What's your name?" "Yu Da." The woman's face was pale, but she showed a contemptuous smile.When she laughed at Xinxiu, she was ready to die. "Oh, your name is Yu Da..." Xinxiu looked at the woman carefully, then smiled coldly and said, "Interesting. Are you really called Yu Da?" "Yes. The six people here are all named Yu Da." "Oh, nice name. How old are you?" "fourteen." "Sakurai!" Xinxiu yelled at Xinding who was trembling beside him.When Shinsou raised his head, Nobusu suddenly burst into laughter again: "Look at her face, she actually said that she is fourteen. Okay, okay, Dr. Eemon's precious daughters are entrusted to you for now. Take them down, Nothing should go wrong.” "As ordered." "Xiong Ruoguan and I still have something to talk about." He suddenly turned to Bo Taro and said, "You stay. Then I said just now that everything in the world is moving. For example, you didn't notice the snails, but they are indeed crawling." Hataro lowered his head slightly, an imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.When the girls all retreated, Bo Taro remained calm and said, "Thank you for your kindness. Bo Taro would like to thank you for the six girls." Xinxiu said coldly: "Wait a minute, I didn't say that I would spare them. Your mind is spinning too fast." Portaro smiled palely, "Compared to adults, I'm just a snail." "So, you can see my thoughts? If you can see it, it means that my thoughts are too simple." He looked at Hataro with a tentative look.Hataro was silent, and he was afraid of Nobuhide's surprise.Xinxiu is very different from ordinary people, his thoughts are like a wild horse galloping between heaven and earth. "You can only see that I won't kill these women?" "No, my lord will entrust those girls to me." "Oh, since you can even see this, you should also know why I entrusted them to you. Let's talk about it." "Your Excellency may want to say: Let them become goddesses and serve the gods for Xiong Ruogong's family." "Haha, sharp eyes. You are right." Xinxiu rubbed his belly and smiled happily, "I might as well tell you frankly, those people who only knew how to bury their heads in piles of papers and didn't know practical things would never think of it." "All my ears and ears." "From the perspective of ordinary people in the world, a goddess should live in the inner courtyard of the shrine, stay at home, and worship the gods wholeheartedly." "good." "I want to make use of this idea. Listen, these goddesses will always remain virgins, dancing in the inner courtyard of the unknown, serving the gods. But when they collect donations to build shrines and halls, they can pass down ancient times. I will show you the secret skills during the sacrificial ceremony in the inner court. What do you think?" "Secret technique..." Xinxiu stared at Hataro closely, and said: "Looking at your flustered eyes, you must think that the gods will punish you for this. My idea is based on this. Haha... Maybe it was not as good as a country drama at the beginning. The team. The dancers cannot completely follow the ancient Kagura, but must absorb the dance movements in Noh and Kyogen, and fully demonstrate the beauty of young women... It is good to train them and make them excellent dancers, so that everyone can watch their dances with one heart , and even make viewers mistakenly think that they are celestial maidens who have come to this troubled world of killing. At that time, as long as they go to various places, shrines will be built one after another—everyone in the world likes beautiful things.” Hataro widened his eyes, speechless.This is another bold fantasy of Xinxiu!He actually wants to reveal to the rest of the gods that have been held in secret for two thousand years, and it will surprise the world at this time.If it is said that this is a move that surprised the world, and he wants to make the three artifacts public, then he is likely to say that he wants the emperor to give a speech.All his actions are closely related to his own interests. Beads of sweat dripped from Hataro's forehead, he gritted his teeth and said, "What practical benefits will this move bring to my lord? I really can't think of it." "Don't be impatient. I won't say this without a reason. Incorporating Noh and Kyogen into Kagura, adding the popular Nenbutsu, Beijing's Gokuraku Dance, and new songs... Ah, it must be an excellent dance. The dancers and singers are all young and beautiful women, and they are all spotless goddesses who serve the gods wholeheartedly." Xinxiu, who dismissed the old habits, gradually became intoxicated with her own fantasy, and seemed to be a little possessed. "It's just a sign of the weak to cower before the gods. Tell the world that if you accept these celestial maidens, blessings will come unceasingly. Once this kind of saying spreads, people everywhere will scramble to snatch the dancers...you What do you think? Are you sure?" "If I don't accept this task, will my lord still hand over these women to me?" "Of course not. If you cultivate them, you can use them as a name to tour the countries and preach the way of being a king. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone? Of course, my purpose is not here. I want them to be used by me secretly..." Xinxiu Looking around, he whispered, "Let them get news from various places like the ninjas of Iga and Kaga." Portaro fell silent.Xinxiu actually wanted to use the gods to get news.Regardless of its good and evil, only he can think of it. "This matter will not take two or three years. Among the six girls, the first one has a pitiful figure, the fifth one has a beautiful singing voice, and the last one has an astonishing vigor, and they are trained according to each person's temperament and appearance. This matter is entirely up to you. You can join forces with the priests of Ise and Atsuta, or you can choose Izumo in the distance. You only need to say that you can use this matter to rebuild the deserted shrine, and those greedy priests will not have any objections. The gods Your care, plus your foresight, who in the world can know about this?" After saying that, Xinxiu smiled as if no one else was around. "As for this marriage, I won't let it go! Haha, bring these six girls back to the Xiong Mansion and train them carefully." Portaro nodded slightly. "There will still be a war here this year." Nobuhide suddenly changed the subject, "Matsudaira Hirotada married Yuda and became Kariya's son-in-law. How could Sunfu Imagawa let him go so easily? They will definitely let the Matsudaira family take back Anxiang Oh, Mizuno Tadomasa probably won't be able to be our vanguard this time... What do you think?" Hataro wanted to resign: "Recently, regarding the affairs in the city, next time-" "I don't know? Haha, you are manipulating Mr. Kariya Nobumoto in the dark, but you claim you don't know anything about the city? Well, let me tell you. After Yuda got married, Mizuno Tadamasa was in poor health and refused Go out for me, but Imakawa will definitely think that this is an excellent opportunity, so he raises his troops. This is a gluttonous meal, and I will kill them and that precious son-in-law. You have to worry about this matter." , Nobuhide clapped and called Matsudaira Shinsada...
