Great name!

Chapter 31 Undercurrent
Hirate Hisahide looked at his father in surprise.

And Masahide Hirate stepped forward and grabbed his collar and shouted in a low voice: "If you dare to have such an idea again, my father will not have a son like you! There is no way that my Hirate family will betray the head of the family!"

Hirate Hisashi was a little frightened, but he said a little aggrievedly: "The child was just gullible for a moment, mainly because the master of the family went too far."

Hirate Masahide loosened his collar, softened his expression, and said, "The head of the family is not entirely wrong, but he is too impatient. As a father, I just want him to be safe."

"But…"

"Nothing but."

Hirate Masahide interrupted Hirate Hisahide's words without hesitation.

"The first master promoted me to a young age, and later entrusted me with the master of the family. How could I betray him? Don't think about this matter again, do you understand?"

"I understand, kid." Hirate Jiuxiu didn't dare to worry about Bo, so he could only agree.

Hirate Masahide felt that his interest was waning, so he waved Hirate Hisahide to leave.

At this time, the retainer came to report: "Master, Lin Dian came to visit."

Hirate Masahide quickly straightened up his appearance and said, "Please come over, Mr. Lin."

Soon, Lin Xiuzhen was led by the servant to the reception room and met with Hirate Masahide.

Lin Xiuzhen said in greeting: "Lord Ping Shou, you and I haven't gotten together for a while. In the past, under the former master, we were quite leisurely. However, after the former master passed away, we worked hard to assist the master of the family, and we were extremely busy.

Now that the situation at home has gradually stabilized, the head of the family feels that we are in the way. Sir Hirate, how wonderful it was that it was Nobuyuki-sama who became the head of the family. "

Hirate Masahide immediately saw Lin Xiuzhen's intention. Lin Xiuzhen wanted to find an opportunity to drive a wedge between him and Oda Nobunaga.

He said in a deep voice: "Why did Mr. Lin say this? How could the master of the family be Mr. Xinxing? I only recognize Mr. Xinxing."

Lin Xiuzhen took a look, Oda Nobunaga has treated you like this, why are you still so stubborn?
He softened his smile slightly and said, "I was in a hurry and said the wrong thing in the next moment, Sir Haihan."

After that, he left.

Lin Xiuzhen looked back at the luxurious Hirate mansion and muttered: "Since you Hirate Masahide insists on dying with Oda Nobunaga, don't blame me for not remembering our old relationship."

……

On the school field, Nobutora is training the iron artillery team.

The situation in the Oda family is complicated now. He heard from Sasaki Nobunaga that Oda Nobunaga was thinking about taking over Tsushima, but Hirate Masahide has been opposed to this matter, which caused Nobunaga's dissatisfaction.

At the same time, rumors emerged in the castle town of Furuno Castle that Hirate Hisahide was colluding with Oda Nobuyuki and wanted to harm Oda Nobunaga.

Such rumors have appeared in the city, and many people know about it. Such rumors immediately aroused everyone's discussion.

Sasaki Narimasa said: "Master Tsuda only trains at the school grounds, so he has avoided this whirlpool."

Nobutora didn't care about these things before, but now when he heard Sasaki Narimasa talking about it, he immediately asked: "How far have things developed now?"

Sasana Narimasa shook his head and said: "I don't know very well, but I heard from my father that the conflict between the head of the family and Hirate-sama is getting bigger and bigger.

I heard that in order to obtain iron cannons, the master of the family planned to make an iron cannon merchant a retainer. But if a merchant becomes a samurai, isn't that humiliating us? This matter aroused the opposition of Master Tie and Master Lin.

My father said that everyone almost felt that Lord Hirate had defected to Suomori City. "

Nobuhu said in surprise: "Isn't this impossible? Master Hirate is the master of the master of the family. He has spent a lot of effort to maintain the status of the master of the family. I don't believe that there is such a thing. Who could it be?" Conspiracy, right?”

Sasaki Narimasa shook his head and said: "That's not clear. It's just that the head of the family's new proposals are always rejected. This is not a good thing."

When Nobutora heard this, he nodded slightly. He remembered that Hirate Masahide committed suicide, but he didn't pay attention to the specific time. It seemed that it might have happened recently. He would just stay at the school training ground and avoid all these disputes.

In the afternoon, after getting off duty, Nobuhu packed up his things and went home. At home, Axia was cooking. When Nobuhu came back, the family sat in the main hall to eat.

Everyone was talking and laughing and having a good time.

At this time, there was a noise outside.

Nobuhu put down his bowl and chopsticks and said, "I'll go take a look."

He got up and walked to the yard, where he saw his servant blocking a tall man.

The man looked up at Xinhu and shouted: "Xinhu, your servant is so responsible."

Xinhu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Master, why are you here?"

Oda Nobunaga smiled and said, "Why, don't you welcome me?"

"No, no, the master of the house has come to visit this humble abode, it's really a brilliance."

Nobutora quickly led Oda Nobunaga into the main hall.

Axia quickly took Jiro and Axiang to salute Oda Nobunaga.

Oda Nobunaga sat down next to Nobutora's table and said, "I'm hungry too, Asya, go and prepare one for me."

Axia and Axiang stood up immediately and prepared a dinner for Oda Nobunaga.

As soon as Nobutora sat down, Oda Nobunaga greeted: "Let's all eat together."

As he said this, he started eating.

Nobuhu immediately picked up the bowls and chopsticks and quickly finished his dinner.

After a while, everyone finished dinner, and Oda Nobunaga joked: "Asha, I have to borrow your husband for a while first. You won't be angry."

Axia said quickly: "I am not that stingy. Master, please do what you want."

Oda Nobunaga laughed, and then brought Nobutora to the study.

In the study, Oda Nobunaga stopped smiling. He sat on the main seat with a serious expression and said, "Nobutora, can I trust you?"

Xinhu saluted and said, "If the master of the house didn't trust me, he wouldn't have paid a private visit to my home incognito."

Oda Nobunaga did not answer directly, he said: "I can't understand. He has always supported me, but recently, like Lin Xiuzhen, he has begun to oppose my actions.

Have you heard that Hirate Hisahide intends to join my brother Nobuyuki? "

Nobutora answered truthfully: "I didn't know this before, but today, Lord Sazuo and I talked about it."

Oda Nobunaga snorted and said, "Many people are optimistic about my brother, what do you think?"

Nobuhu thought for a while and said: "If this is a time of peace, a well-behaved family head like Nobuyuki can ensure the stability of the family.

It's a pity that Nobuyuki-sama was born at the wrong time. Now he is in troubled times, and Owari is surrounded by powerful enemies. Our family needs a courageous head who breaks old rules and is the most suitable one. "

When Oda Nobunaga heard this, he felt happy in his heart and with a smile on his face, he said: "They are all old and stick to the rules. If this continues, the Oda family will be finished sooner or later.

What you said is what I think. We can't go back to the old path, otherwise the war will be endless. I will end it all and take down the entire Owari! "
