Samurai of the Takeda Family
Chapter 222: Are you worthy of a kiss?
As soon as Takeda Yoshinobu appeared, the situation suddenly changed in a subtle way.
The Langtang of Takeda Yoshinobu, and the samurai, saw Takeda Yoshinobu's visit, and their spirits were immediately shocked, and their waists straightened again.
As Takeda’s prodigal son, Takeda Katsurai attended the New Year’s ceremonies. He was also dressed as a martial artist. Unlike ordinary military generals, he held a folding fan, and his aura was a bit more gentle and elegant. Takeda Katsuyoshi is full of two styles.
Takeda Katsuyoshi glanced at Takeda Yoshinobu, and he saluted him first, saying: "Meet your brother."
Seeing Takeda Katsurai dressed up as a martial artist, Takeda Yoshinobu appeared extremely energetic despite his young age.
With the straight back, the confident and calm attitude, and the prestigious demeanor that is always revealed, it is hard to believe that this man in front of him is a man who is not yet twenty years old.
The more Takeda Yoshinobu looked at him, the more jealous he became. The more he looked at Takeda Katsuyoshi, the more he felt that he was similar to Takeda Shingen.
However, seeing Takeda Katsurai also in front of him at this moment, respectfully saluting, Takeda Yoshinobu's frowned brows eased slightly. Must bow to oneself.
Takeda Yoshinobu smiled slightly and said, "Shiro, I haven't seen you for a long time. I'm very happy to hear that you have been doing meritorious service in Nishiueno, but fortunately you still put my brother in your eyes."
Faced with the bones in Takeda Yoshinobu's words, Takeda Katsuyori said in a deep voice, "Brother, Katsuyori dare not."
"It's good to know." Takeda Yoshinobu smiled weirdly, opened the folding fan in his hand with a puff, then patted Takeda Katsuyori on the shoulder, and whispered in his ear: "This time you didn't abolish your military power. what a pity."
Takeda Katsuyori's eyes flashed, and he whispered: "This time, grandfather, Imagawa and Hojo's family proposed to my father to deprive me of military power. You really planned it."
Takeda Yoshinobu laughed, and said, "Yes, but unfortunately let you escape. The act of assassinating yourself by this faction is very good. Even my father and I are included. Very good, next time you There will be no such good luck."
Takeda Yoshinobu's words became colder as he spoke.
If you are not aware of the people inside, from the outside, they seem to be two brothers, talking in a friendly manner.
Regarding Takeda Yoshinobu's provocation, Takeda Katsuyori was noncommittal, but stood quietly in place.
The moment the two brothers' eyes met, they were like thunder and lightning, and they could see a trace of killing intent from the bottom of each other's eyes.
Seeing that Takeda Katsuyori had nothing to say, Takeda Yoshinobu turned around naturally, just in time to see Li Xiao living under Takeda Katsuyoshi.
Seeing Li Xiao living next to Takeda Katsurai, Takeda Yoshinobu showed a little unhappiness on his face, but then his expression turned to be gentle, and said, "Master Li Xiao, congratulations, you are about to become a member of the family."
Li Xiao smiled slightly. Although he was very disgusted with Takeda Yoshinobu, he still said with a gentle face: "His Royal Highness, this is the Lord's love for Li Xiao, and Li Xiao is naturally very grateful."
Takeda Yoshinobu smiled, turned his eyes to Li Zheng who was sleeping in Li Xiao's arms, and said, "Yes, it looks like Master Li Xiao."
When Takeda Yoshinobu finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and stroked Li Zheng's head.
"You are not allowed to touch him."
Just as Takeda Yoshinobu stretched out his hand halfway, a woman beside Li Xiao said loudly.
Li Xiao turned to look at the person who was talking, it was Yusada Obata.
Not only Obata Yusada, but also Obata Yumi, both of whom were Ginya nibbling, staring at Takeda Yoshinobu angrily.
Li Xiao then remembered the scene when he was in Guofeng Castle. At that time, Takeda Yoshinobu wanted to take the two sisters, but Yumi Ohata resisted with a knife and held Takeda Yoshinobu down.
Finally, in order to save Takeda Yoshinobu, Takeda Yoshinobu's subordinates personally beheaded another brother of Obata Yumi.
So it's no wonder why the two sisters, Ohata, saw Takeda Yoshinobu with such an angry expression.
And when Takeda Yoshinobu stretched out his hand to caress Li Zheng, Oba Yumi was unwilling, but everything focused on Li Xiao's position, so he did not speak.
But Yuzhen Oba thought of the tragedy of Guofeng City back then, so he spoke directly and took Li Zheng from Li Xiaohuai.
Takeda Yoshinobu was yelled at by a woman, and suddenly he couldn't hold on to his face. He narrowed his eyes to the two sisters, and immediately recognized the two sisters.
When seeing Yumi Obata, Takeda Yoshinobu even subconsciously almost wanted to reach out and touch the scar on his neck.
At this time, Li Xiao said: "His Royal Highness Yixin, this is my wife and sister. I don't understand your majesty, so I offended. Please forgive me."
Hearing Li Xiao's apology, Takeda Yoshinobu stood in place with his hand held down. He was a narrow-minded person. When someone else dared to scold him like this, he was dragged out and killed by the samurai under his command.
But at the moment, Li Xiao's identity is different. He is already the elder of the Takeda family and a group of others. Before he officially broke his face with Takeda Katsuyori, he could not easily offend him.
Therefore, Takeda Yoshinobu suppressed the tyrannical intentions in his chest, and instead showed a gentle smile on his face, saying: "Lord Li Xiao, it's okay. If she doesn't want to, just forget it, um, your wife and sister I used to I seem to have seen it in Guofeng Castle in Ueno."
Li Xiao nodded and said, "His memory is really good."
Yusada Obata couldn't help but interject: "It turns out that Your Highness still remembers that my brother was killed by His Highness's men."
Takeda Yoshinobu said with a smile: "What happened that day was really unexpected, but people cannot be resurrected. Let him pass the past. Li Xiao is the elder of his family. As his wife and sister, you must do everything He is important, and should no longer remember the past conquests of the two countries. There is no benefit to this."
After a pause, Takeda Yoshinobu said again: "Sir Li Xiao, I don’t need to pursue the matter about his wife and sister just now, but I remember Mr. Satsuma, who was very fond of this woman at the beginning, so I’m not as good as I personally represent Mrs. Shabu today. , Propose marriage to you, and betroth your wife and sister to Master Jibe, Jibe Shengzi, do you agree?"
Upon hearing Takeda Yoshinobu's words, Atobe Katsusuke immediately came to his side. His eyes showed greed and looked up and down Ohata Yoshinobu. Then he said to Takeda Yoshinobu, "Your servants are grateful for your marriage. Her gratitude is beyond words. His servants really liked this girl Xiaoban very much."
Yusada Obata was immediately furious when she saw Katsushige Tsube. She has rarely had a temper, but this time she couldn't help it anymore.
At the beginning, it was this Rube Katsushika. After the Shirane Mountain battle, he thought that Takeda Katsurai Li Xiao died in battle, so he forcibly abducted himself, intending to occupy it.
Oba Yusada has never hated anyone since childhood, but it is an exception for Masabe Tobe.
Seeing Oba Yumi’s expression, Takeda Yoshinobu showed a cold stern expression on his face, and then smiled at Li Xiao in a very gentle tone: "Master Li Xiao, what do you think? The Tsube family is a branch of the Takeda family. And this family tree is the elder of the family and the important minister for generations. If your wife and sister are married to Master Rubu, it will not be considered insulting. This will also greatly promote the harmony between Lord Li Xiao and the Rubu family. If I report this matter to you My father, he heard about it, and he must have personally ordered his consent."
Although Li Xiao didn't make any expressions on his face, he already wanted to cut Takeda Yoshinobu's yin man by seventeen or eighteen in his heart.
Takeda Yoshinobu's move is really sinister. For a woman, what could be more cruel than the punishment of marrying someone she hates. Obata Yusada only scolded Takeda Yoshinobu, and was retaliated by such a malicious plan, which shows how his character is.
At the same time, Takeda Yoshinobu also calculated that if Kobata Yusada and Masabe Akatsuki were married, he would have a hostage held by Takeda Yoshinobu in disguise, so he would be controlled by Takeda Yoshinobu.
So in the future, if he helps Takeda Katsuyori deal with Takeda Yoshinobu, he will definitely destroy Obata Yusada in order to retaliate.
But Takeda Yoshinobu also knew that Li Xiao would not agree, so he helped Takeda Shingen this mountain to crush Li Xiao.
His excuse is very simple. It is called clearing away misunderstandings. Let Katsusuke Gobe, who is close to Takeda Yoshinobu, and Li Xiao, who is close to Takeda Katsurai, get married. The two families will deepen the bond between each other, so that they will start each other in the future. Will take care of it.
This is of course the best result for all Takeda Shingen who emphasizes internal stability in the Takeda family.
Li Xiao was thinking about the strategy to deal with Takeda Yoshinobu, and Obata Yusada next to him was already flushed, angrily and loudly said: "Brother-in-law, I'd rather die, and absolutely, I will never marry this sect. Shengzi this bastard."
Masabe Akatsuki laughed and said, "Asshole, isn't it, Miss Ohata, when I invited you to my house for a drink, I didn't see you refuse it like that."
According to Katsushiro, the samurai on Takeda Yoshinobu's side also raised their heads and laughed.
Seeing this humiliation, Oba Yusada bit her lip with her teeth, and traces of blood escaped. She trembled with anger, and almost kept tears.
But Li Xiao patted her on the shoulder at this time, and Wen Yanyan said, "The best way to fight back to the enemy is not to show the slightest sadness."
Yusada Obata nodded, and looked at Li Xiao softly, saying, "Brother-in-law, I see."
After talking about Oba Yusada, there was a hint of determination in his eyes, and he said firmly: "But brother-in-law, I would rather die than marry Sabe Masazu."
Li Xiao nodded in response to Oba Yusada's request, and turned to look at Masabe Obata in a blink of an eye, with a sharp look in his eyes.
Takeda Katsuyori stood up and said to Li Xiao: "Li Xiao, you don't have to worry about your brother's begging for marriage, and just refuse Masabe Takashi, and I will take care of everything."
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, but don't bother, it's easy for me to deal with Shibu Shengji."
After speaking, Li Xiao turned around and walked to Masabe Tsuki, holding the samurai sword at his waist in his hand.
Seeing Li Xiao approaching him, and his expression was unsatisfactory, Rube Katsushige was slightly shocked, took a step back guardedly, and asked, "Master Li Xiao, what are you going to do?"
With a smile on Li Xiao's face, he turned to ask: "Master Obe, don't be afraid, I'm here to ask you, are you a samurai?"
Faced with Li Xiao's sudden question, Rube Shengzi was taken aback for a while, then stared at Li Xiao and asked, "Master Li Xiao, what do you mean? Does this still need to be asked?"
Li Xiao smiled slightly and said: "That's it, my wife told me. When their sisters and parents passed away, they were worried about their future. So they put forward a few conditions for their sisters' request to marry. ?"
Obviously, Masazu Rube thought that Li Xiao, in order not to let Xiaoban Yuzheng marry him, he prepared to ask for a price, and said loudly: "Master Li Xiao, don't talk nonsense about the ancestors."
Li Xiaoyan said: "Where can I dare to talk nonsense, Master Rubu, since you want to marry my wife and sister, you should agree to their late parents' terms. Do you want to listen?"
Jibe Shengzi hesitated for a while, with a sly look on his face, and said: "Yes, if these conditions, Lord Li Xiao, you can do it, and I can do it naturally."
Li Xiao laughed and said: "Very well, of course I have achieved these conditions. What about the masters of the Department, you agree or not, as long as you can do it, I will marry my wife and sister to you."
Katobe Akira said with a grunt: "Well, I promise you. What are the conditions?"
Li Xiao hummingly said: "The conditions for marrying my wife and sister first, the other party must be a warrior."
Katsushi Atobe waved his hand disdainfully, and said, "Master Li Xiao, are you kidding me? My Atobe family is a descendant of the Genji family. I am also a famous samurai in Kai, and of course I am a samurai."
Li Xiao nodded and said: "In that case, congratulations to your Lord Rubu, you have agreed with the first condition. The following is the second condition."
After hearing the conditions put forward by Li Xiao, Rube Shengzi immediately increased his confidence and said, "Quickly, what is the second condition?"
Li Xiaoyan said: "My wife once said that, apart from being a warrior, the person his sister is going to marry doesn't need him to have a prominent family, nor does he need to know the territory of tens of thousands of stones, but he must be able to open a bow and shoot arrows. , The arched horse is excellent, can you do this, Master Trail Department?"
Masabe Masabe raised his head and laughed, thinking that if this condition were placed on the sons of Gongqing, of course it would be difficult until now, but for him who has been educated by the martial arts since he was a child, it is nothing to say.
Saibe Katsushige proudly said: "What's this? I came from a martial arts family. Both archery and martial arts are outstanding. If you don't believe me, Li Xiao-sama, you can give it a try."
Li Xiao shook his head and said, "Do I still worry about the bow horse of Master Rubu? I naturally admire this point, so I don't need to try it. You agree with the second condition."
After listening to Li Xiao's words, Rube Katsushika instantly burst into confidence, and immediately his back straightened, as if it had been raised several centimeters, and he arrogantly asked: "I also asked why the conditions are so simple, and there are other conditions. What is it? Just say it, and I will do it together with Shengzi."
A sneerful smile appeared on Li Xiao's face, but his mouth echoed the words of Jibe Shengzi: "Master Jibe, really amazing, if you agree with this last condition, you can marry my wife and sister."
Akobe Akatsuki said impatiently: "What are the conditions, quickly say, quickly."
Li Xiao looked at Jibe Shengzi, sneered, and said word by word: "This third condition must be proficient in martial arts and capable of being an enemy of a hundred people."
Satobe Katsushige listened for a moment, and said: "A hundred enemies? Do you want me to go to the battlefield to get a hundred people?"
Li Xiao laughed and said, "It's not necessary. Where can I find so many people, but a test is still necessary."
Akatsuki Akobe secretly felt bad, and asked, "How to test?"
Li Xiaoyan said: "Yes, there is nothing to say, Master Jibu, if you can defeat my retainer, I will admit your martial arts, so that I will beg your wife and sister to you, it is also considered a worry."
After Li Xiao finished speaking, Shigang Kazuha took a step calmly and said: "Master Jibu, it's been a long time."
When Shiokaichi Yu, Li Xiao's retainer, stood up, his face turned pale.
Li Xiao smiled slightly when he saw the expression of Masabe Tobe. The last time Li Xiao rushed to his house to rescue Yusada Obata, Shioka Kazuha brought down seven or eight people alone. Presumably, the scene in that scene should make him. Satobe was impressed.
Takeda Yoshinobu is still confident in the martial arts of Atobe Katsushige, and whispered to Atobe Katsushige next to him: "Since Li Xiao has spoken, you can go up and fight his retainers. Anyway, whether you win or lose, I can call the shots for you."
Takeda Yoshinobu did not answer, but he turned his head and saw that his face was wrong. He immediately understood and asked: "Take, aren't you an opponent of Li Xiao's retainer."
Akashi Atobe said with an embarrassed expression: "My lord, this person is Shioka Kazuha, and he is the proud apprentice of Tsukahara Shuden."
"What is the proud apprentice of the Tsukahara Servant, how can Li Xiao's subordinates be such a master." Takeda Yoshinobu was surprised.
Takeda Yoshihide confidence in the chassis Forget it, in the third condition, in martial arts, Sabe is far inferior to Li Xiao.
Therefore, Li Xiaocai used this to criticize the Ministry Shengzi.
Takeda Yoshinobu looked at Li Xiao again and said, "Master Li Xiao, it’s not necessary to compete. This time, I am not abrupt to propose marriage to Master Atobe. I know that you have had misunderstandings with Master Atobe. Getting married can be regarded as the sincerity of reconciliation between the two parties. If the two can reconcile, this is the blessing of my Takeda family."
At this time Takeda Katsurai spoke, and he said: "My brother is right, but the last wishes of the ancestors are also to be observed. If it is Master Rubu, martial arts really can't beat Master Li Xiao's retainer, and this marriage cannot be formed. As for Master Li Xiao’s martial arts, everyone knows it, and when this adult hadn’t become Li Xiao’s retainer, he was competing with Master Li Xiao, but he lost to the opponent. I can testify to this."
After thinking about this, Takeda Yoshinobu glanced at Masasu Tsubebe, and Nuqi had just said so much that he couldn't get off the stage now.
Although Masabe's martial arts were good, it was nothing compared to Li Xiao.
Takeda Yoshinobu's eyes turned, and then he said: "Master Li Xiao, your bravery is well-known in my Takeda family, but the third condition for marrying your wife and sister would be too strong if you were to take your wife and sister as the standard. Could it be the world? Is only a warrior who wins you worthy of Ling's wife and sister? So I would like to see how your wife and sister can get married."
When Takeda Yoshinobu said this, the samurai on his side accompanied him.
Li Xiao nodded, acknowledging that Takeda Yoshinobu did have two brushes, and said: "His Royal Highness Yoshinobu, you are right."
Takeda Yoshinobu continued: "As for your third condition, I think I can compromise it. I have seen the martial arts of Master Atobe. For the fourth time in the battle of Chuanakajima, he also sought three Uesugi in a row. It’s a light level, so if you can’t be called the number one brave, it’s also a samurai with high martial skills. So I think the third condition, Lord Shibu, doesn’t need to be tested."
Li Xiao said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Yixin, what you said is correct, but please allow me to insist on this point, so let's make a compromise between the conditions. Master Rubu."
Li Xiao looked at Rubu Shengzi, and said with a stern face: "If Lord Rubu can catch my three shots from Li Xiao, it proves that you are an excellent warrior. How about I marry your wife and sister?"
As soon as Li Xiao said this, no matter Takeda Yoshinobu and Takeda Katsurai's samurai were present at the scene, they were all shocked. Can Li Xiao win the Sabu Masasu with three shots?
Although this Sachibe is not a brave general of the Takeda family, he also has two brushes in his own martial arts. Li Xiao said that three shots will determine the outcome, which is too arrogant.
If Jibe Shengzi couldn't even stop Li Xiao's three shots, there would be no need to talk about martial arts.
So this time even Takeda Yoshinobu has nothing to say.
His face flushed red, no matter what at the moment, he said loudly: "Li Xiao, you are too arrogant. Three shots are three shots. I will definitely make you regret it."
Immediately, Shibu Shengzi accepted Li Xiao's challenge.
And Katsuyori Takeda and the samurai on both sides of Takeda Yoshinobu were also moved by mutual affection and watched the competition with great interest.
Li Xiao's bravery and superb spear skills are naturally well-known in the Takeda family. Seeing Li Xiao show his skills at the moment, all these samurai have reported their insights.
Immediately everyone couldn't even pay attention to the New Year's ceremonies attending the museum.
Once the competition is set, someone will immediately obtain a weapon for Li Xiao, and Jibu wins the capital.
In the face of Li Xiao's contemptuous challenge, Tsukibe Shengzi is now full of anger, holding a wooden knife, pointing to Li Xiao and shouting loudly: "Li Xiao, I want to fight with you."
Li Xiao took off his hunting clothes and went into battle lightly. After receiving the spear, he waved his hand very well.
Li Xiao said loudly: "Master Jibu, then we will begin."
After talking about Li Xiao's spear horizontally, the posture was swayed, and Akatsuki Tobe also paid full attention, staring at Li Xiao as a precaution.
"Master Trail, I'm going to attack your left shoulder, you pay attention."
As Li Xiao reported his guns, the samurai present were all surprised, thinking that this was also arrogant. They had to compete with the opponent and reported their position to attack the opponent, so that the opponent was prepared early.
Is Li Xiao really so confident in his marksmanship?
On the other hand, Shioka Kazuha, Masabe Takashi frowned, and reported his guns before attacking the opponent. Such a move was not used by anyone in the past.
Before the Tsukabara Tokuden~lightnovelpub.net~ there was a sword sage named Kajihara Nagato. He used a long sword with a blade of three feet** inches long. Before he was compared with others, he always It is to "remind" the opponent first, saying: "Attention, take your left hand."
After finishing the contest, he really cut off the opponent's left hand with a single knife.
Kajihara Nagato cut wherever he said this, and the martial arts that never missed his hand were indeed a must at the time.
And even though his opponent knew that the opponent's previous tricks, he still couldn't escape his lightning-fast stab.
Such people are generally confident in their swordsmanship.
Could it be that Li Xiao's spear skills have reached a level comparable to that of Kajihara Nagato's swordsmanship?
A look of dignity was added to the face of Shengzi Tracebe, and at this moment, the spear in Li Xiao's hand was swept through the air.
After a shot broke, Li Xiao said in his heart that if the trail is worthy of capital, you are also worthy of begging for relatives and asking for trouble. . ..
