"What are you talking about," Roddy smiled faintly.
Kikukawa Yukinari's gaze seemed to be very sharp, staring straight into Roddy's eyes: "I believe my eyes will not be wrong."
Of the three of you, you are the true leader."
Roddy smiled, noncommittal.
Kikukawa Yukinari was even more determined in his thoughts, and said with a straight face: "Let me ask Your Excellency first, is it the instigation of my brother Kikukawa Yasuichi that you kidnapped me halfway this time?"
Roddy didn't answer, Nitis had already smiled first, "Why would you guess like that" Kikukawa Yukinari smiled coldly: "Only he would wish I died, after I die, there will be no one to compete for the position of heir to him, hum" Roddy and Nitis looked at each other, Nitis smiled slightly, did not deny, but did not affirm, just said lightly: "What are you talking to us about now?"
"I want to buy you," Kikukawa Yukinari's tone was very simple: "I can give you ten times as many benefits as my brother gives you, as long as you are willing to cooperate with me" Luo Di sighed secretly, this Kikukawa Yukinari looked quite smart, but when he spoke, he inevitably showed a bit of a straw bag.
Even if he wanted to do this, it was very inappropriate to buy others in person.
Luo Di and the other three, although Luo Di is not a cunning person, but he has seen a lot since these days, and naturally he is no longer the honest young man he was at the beginning, and the old magician is naturally an old fox, not to mention Nice.
In front of these three people, where is there still the slightest ability to resist, Nitis said left and right, without much effort, she set out the bottom of Kikukawa Yukinari.
It turns out that this Kikukawa Yukinari is the youngest son of the shogun of this generation of the Yaki Kingdom, and he also has an older brother, Kikukawa Koichi.
The two are three years apart.
However, the two were not born to the same mother, and the shogun of this generation, Kikukawa Ieyasu, had two wives, of which Kikukawa Yasuichi's mother had died of illness at an early age.
Kikukawa Yukinari was born handsome and white since he was a child, and he was quite popular with the old general.
Coupled with the fact that his mother blows the pillow wind next to the old general's ear every day, Kikukawa Ieyasu naturally takes a fancy to this little son more and more.
And that Kikukawa Yukinari's brother Kikukawa Koichi is also an extraordinary character.
If it is said that Kikukawa Yukinari inherited his mother's beauty.
That Kikukawa Koichi inherited the martial arts of the old Kikukawa general, who was only twenty-five years old, was born tall and burly, and was already a rare warrior among the dwarves.
And he is resolute and decisive, and extremely strong.
Such a natural warrior is extremely supported by those old retainers under General Kikukawa.
Therefore, the power of this eldest son is far stronger than that of Kikukawa Yukinari, who only knows the wind and snow.
In the several battles between the two brothers for the position of heir, the old courtiers of the shogunate basically fell to the side of Kikukawa Yasuichi, even if the old Kikukawa general liked this well-behaved and sensible young son in his heart, it was difficult to say anything.
Moreover, according to the speculation of Luo Di and others, the old General Kikukawa probably knows very well in his heart, although he likes this little son.
But I also understand that this little son is definitely not a material to be a leader, if you have to make an analogy, this Kikukawa Yunsari is a little similar to Seth.
The same is a playboy merry young master.
He is very proficient in any poetry, but if it is a real ability, it is more than one grade worse than Kikukawa Yasuichi.
And the young Koichi Kikukawa has begun to officially command the army.
This time, Kikukawa Konari came to Kawado and met Luo Di and others, because his mother was anxious about this precious son, and seeing that the elder brother had begun to grasp the military power, he could only try his best to encourage his son to find something serious to do.
The purpose of Kikukawa Yukinari's visit to Kawado this time was to nominally inspect and inspect the materials transported to the front line in Kawado City.
This errand is very simple, the real thing is naturally done by the people below, his little master only needs to pretend to look around and go back, but nominally he can increase his ability and experience in this area.
However, Luo Di and the others were not interested in these at all.
Their purpose was to find out what was going on with the "thing" that the dwarves had that could threaten the temple.
It's just that no matter how Nidis knocks on the side, this Kikukawa Yukinari doesn't seem to know.
The three of them glanced at each other again, and they all saw a little helplessness in each other's eyes, this is also normal, such an important secret, this Kikukawa Yukinari is just a noble young master, and he must not know it.
Kikukawa Yukinari said it all right, but the three people in front of him never refused to express their position.
He was a little anxious in his heart, although Kikukawa Yukinari didn't have much ability, but after all, he grew up in the shogunate, the core institution of the power of the dwarf clan, and he didn't have any other skills, and he still had the vicious eyes of people.
He could intuitively feel that the three people in front of him were definitely not ordinary characters, they were all absolute first-class masters.
The beautiful woman had a cunning gaze, and at first glance she was a very clever person.
Although the old man was silent, he naturally had a faint momentum in his words, especially when he always carried a wooden staff in his hand, he walked normally, and he didn't need crutches at all, but ordinary people didn't need such a thing, but what kind of person was Kikukawa Yukinari Although there were no magicians in the Yaqi Kingdom, he had seen magicians, and what this old man had in his hand was not a crutch, but a magic staff used by magicians And this young man made Kikukawa Yukinari feel even more mysterious.
Sitting beside him, he always felt a trace of uneasiness in his heart, this kind of breath Kikukawa Yukinari only felt in his father, the old General Kikukawa, that is a kind of leader temperament who commands thousands of troops, and it is the faint evil aura exuded by the real warrior, and this breath on this young man's body is even stronger than his father, especially when he sank his face and spoke, Kikukawa Yukisei, who was sitting next to him, felt that the sweat pores of his body were cold outside.
The feeling of oppression is very real.
"Three, I don't know if you're interested in my proposal," Kikukawa Yukinari said cautiously.
"Nope."
Roddy replied very simply: "I'm not interested in your proposal at all. ” Kikukawa Yukinari seemed to be a little anxious: "You are not satisfied with the conditions I offered, what benefits my brother has given you, you can give you ten times as much as you can say" Nidis suddenly smiled and said, "Your brother promised us that once he becomes a general, he will give us the exclusive right to operate Ironwood in the future, can you do it?"
When she said this, Kikukawa Yukinari didn't do anything, Roddy and the old magician were startled at the same time, and Roddy said in a deep voice: "Nice" Nidis ignored Roddy's reaction at all, and said lightly: "Can you do this condition?"

Kikukawa Yukinari didn't hesitate at all, and immediately said: "Of course, this is nothing, if I become a general in the future, I can agree to any conditions you have."
Roddy sighed in his heart, although he didn't know what Nidith meant by saying this, but his reaction to Kikukawa Yukinari made him smile bitterly.
This guy really doesn't seem to be a leader, no wonder he can't compete with his brother Kikukawa Yasuichi.
Tiemu is the foundation of survival for the dwarf race, he actually said a word so easily, and sold it without even thinking about it, Nidis motioned to Roddy not to speak, she continued in a low voice: "That's it, Young Master Kikukawa, the three of us are actually not from your country, we are from the mercenary association of the Roland continent, we are in the mercenary association of the Roland continent, but the top master, my name is Blood Fox Nidis, and the old man's name is the Sin Star Sith, and he" Nidith pointed at Rodi, said slowly in a calm and composed tone: "He is the leader of the famous black mercenary, the lone wolf Roddy."
Not to mention Kikukawa, even Roddy and Sith were mouthed wide open by Nice's words.
This woman is so terrible that she tells so many lies without even blinking an eyelid Nidis coughed lightly, and Roddy and Sith quickly closed their mouths, although they didn't understand what Nidis meant by this, they didn't refute it in person, and they waited until they had anything to say behind their backs.
Kikukawa Yukinari's face seemed to be a little complicated, but he still quickly pretended to be reverent, and said a few words: "Jiuyang" and the like.
Nidis didn't have the slightest panic on her face, and continued calmly: "We came to find you, naturally it was your brother's instigation, presumably you haven't guessed what your brother's intention is to let us kidnap you and not kill you."
Kikukawa Yukinari shook his head: "I don't know." ” Luo Di smiled helplessly in his heart: Don't talk about you, I don't know myself Nidis's eyes flashed with wisdom, and she said slowly: "Your brother wants us to kidnap you, and then secretly coerce you to pretend to be your entourage and assassinate your father, General Old Kikukawa" "Ah," Kikukawa Yukinari and the old magician exclaimed at the same time.
The old magician shouted in surprise, and immediately subconsciously covered his mouth.
Edith secretly glared at the Sith. and looked at Kikukawa Yukinari calmly.
Kikukawa Yukinari's face was full of anger, and he didn't notice the old magician's gaffe, but said hatefully: "He actually did this kind of thing, isn't he afraid that after the incident, can he think that he can get away with it?"
Nidis showed a look of pity on her face, and sighed deliberately: "Alas, Young Master Kikukawa, you don't understand that we are in name but your entourage, after we killed the old general, we can naturally run away, guess who will take this black cauldron in the end, when your father is dead, you are charged with killing your father, and you can't compete with him for the position, hum" After speaking, he deliberately looked at Kikukawa Yukinari with a playful gaze.
Kikukawa Yukinari's back was covered with cold sweat, and he was silent for a long time before muttering: "It's too despicable, it's too shameless" to pay tribute to Yanyu Jiangnan Roddy looked at Nitis sideways, and that gaze seemed to say: "You are also despicable and shameless enough." ” Nidis quickly made a gesture of disdain to Roddy secretly, looked at the somewhat trance Kikukawa Yukinari, and said lightly: "What do you decide to do now?"
Kikukawa stood up suddenly, but he didn't expect that this was in the carriage, his head slammed into the roof of the car, he screamed in pain, sat down with his head in his hands, and said angrily: "I want to go back to Kyoto immediately and tell my father that I want to debunk my brother's tricks, bah, he is not my brother, he is a bastard" Nidis shook her head, sighed, and said: "What you think is too simple, this matter has been planned for a long time by Kikukawa Yasuichi, how can it be that you can simply denounce him and be useful You think about it, then he simply pushed it away, you have no evidence."
Kikukawa Yukinari looked at Nice, and Nitis immediately said quickly: "It is impossible for us to testify to you in this matter, even if we come forward, he can completely bite back when he doesn't recognize it, saying that you found someone to come back and insult him, can you tell me clearly?"
Looking at Kikukawa Yukinari's unbelieving appearance, Nidis's eyes rolled, and she said coldly: "If you don't believe it, then let me ask you, there is a war going on in the south, you know?"
"Yes."
Kikukawa Yukinari: "I went to Kawado this time" Nidis waved her hand, signaling that he didn't need to continue, but continued to ask coldly: "How many years have the Roland Continent and your Eight Miscellaneous Kingdoms not been at war, why did they suddenly attack this time, do you know?"
Nidis deliberately stared at Kikukawa Yukinari with her eyes, and without waiting for him to answer, she sped up her voice and asked hatefully: "So, this time, the army of the Roland Continent was overwhelmed in the early stage, and it was so quick to defeat your army in the south, do you know why?"
Kikukawa Yukinari's face changed a few times, and finally reacted, and said blankly: "But, do these have anything to do with my brother?"
Snorting coldly, Nitis continued to ask: "Let me ask you again, what benefits did your brother get in this war, and he was entrusted with military power."
"Yes."
Kikukawa Yukinari nodded and said, "Father has appointed him" "Alright."
Nidis stopped Kikukawa Yukinari's words again, and said quickly: "In peacetime, your father naturally won't easily hand over the military power to others, but once the war starts, even if he has to hand over the military power, he will naturally give priority to his own son, so you can rest assured, so you can tell me, don't these things have anything to do with your brother?"
Kikukawa Yukinari opened his mouth and took a deep breath: "Could it be that this war is deliberately colluded by my brother" "Yes" Niceh nodded firmly, and glanced at Kikukawa Yukinari with sympathetic eyes: "I know you must not believe it, but the truth is right in front of you" The woman looked like a mountain of ironclad evidence: "Your brother has received the greatest benefits, he not only took the opportunity to master the military power, but also hummed, the current war ignores you, it is because your brother sold military intelligence to the enemy, I will wait and see, I tell you, in a few days, your brother will ask to take the initiative to lead troops to the front line, when the time comes, according to the agreement he and the enemy colluded, The other party will deliberately lose to your brother, and then withdraw the army, in this case, your brother will not only have the power of the army, but also increase his prestige, and even if your father is no longer good, the position of this heir will not be left behind."
Kikukawa Yukinari's face was full of despair, slumped in the chair, his face was full of frustration and despair, and he said weakly: "Then I can't do anything?"
Nidis immediately showed a gentle smile, it was definitely a standard smile for a big bad wolf to look at the little white rabbit, she said gently: "Young Master Kikukawa, since I said these words to you, it is natural to decide to help you, I also think that your brother is too ruthless in doing things, and I am really a little worried about cooperating with him, we are doing things for profit, I think you are a very good person, so I am talking to you about this, well, if you really want to fight with your brother, you might as well think about it first, and see where you have an advantage now, Where is the disadvantage. ” Quietly, the sentence "we" has already pulled the position with Kikukawa Yukinari.
Kikukawa Yukinari is not really a fool after all, he thought about it carefully, and slowly spoke: "Well, my brother is superior to me in many aspects, he has the support of the old people in the shogunate, and those generals who lead the troops like him with their support, my brother is naturally powerful in the military, well, his strength is outstanding, much stronger than me" Seeing that Kikukawa Yukinari became more and more frustrated the more he spoke, Nitis hurriedly waved her hand and hurriedly said: "We already know all this, it's better to think about where you have an advantage."
Kikukawa Xingcheng was a little more energetic, and said quickly: "Well, my mother is still alive, because of my mother's relationship, my brother rarely shows up at home, so my relationship with my father is not too close, and my father likes me more."
"Well, there's more," Nidice continued to induce.
"And me" Kikukawa Yukinari suddenly showed a little blush on his face, and said in a low voice: "I, I have a good relationship with the royal family."
Although the shogunate could read the power of the imperial family, it was also necessary to have a good relationship with the imperial family.
My brother was too arrogant, so he didn't have a good relationship with the royal family.
The youngest daughter of my current emperor is my lover. ” "Oh" Nitis glanced at Roddy and immediately asked, "The royal family is a very favorable condition, how much do you know about the royal family?"
Kikukawa Yukinari sighed, he closed his eyes, but there was a bit of tenderness and sweetness on his face: "Her Royal Highness Princess and I have known each other since childhood, and our mutual relationship has always been very good.
Alas, in fact, I want to inherit the position of this general, and half of it is for her" Kikukawa Yukinari sighed heavily, opened his eyes and smiled bitterly, and said, "I know my own ability, I am definitely not a material to be a general."
My abilities are far worse than my brother's, and I admit that if he were a general, he would definitely be much better than me.
It's just that I have to fight with him" Kikukawa Yukinari clenched his fists and said hatefully: "I heard my father say that he seems to be interested in marrying the royal family, and he has reached an agreement with His Majesty that in the future, let his heir marry His Majesty's daughter If my brother becomes the heir, then she" There was a rare sincere look in Nidis's eyes, and it was a little unbearable to continue to lie to this guy at this moment. couldn't help sighing: "Is it because you have to fight with your brother for this, but with your current situation, is the emperor willing to marry his daughter to you?"
Kikukawa Yukinari shook his head and said, "Originally, it was Ken."
His Majesty seems to like me more too.
Because my brother was born arrogant, he once was rude to the royal family at a drinking party, and although he was scolded by his father, he never had a good relationship with the royal family.
I believe that if it really fights, Your Majesty will definitely support me."
Luo Di sighed in his heart that there was a shogun here, the emperor was just an empty shelf, how useful could his support be.
Moreover, there is a purpose for people's support.

Compared with a strong general, the royal family is a little better off for its own life, of course, hoping that a weak and incompetent general will be in power "But" Kikukawa Yukinari's voice suddenly changed, and his brows furrowed: "Yes, Your Majesty's attitude is also a little weird, originally he acquiesced to my relationship with the princess until last month" Originally, Luo Di and the others were not interested in these private affairs of Kikukawa Yukinari, but they didn't expect Kikukawa Yukinari's following words to make the ears of the three of them stand up.
"Last month, I secretly met with the princess in the palace, well, the place where we had a private meeting, in fact, is a very secret place, alas, she has followed me all these years, it is really hard for her, there is a forbidden place in the palace, that no one is allowed to approach, but no one knows, we will hide near there to tryst His Majesty's order, no one is allowed to come near there, so there are few people around there, and it has become a place where we can meet" Nidis's heart was pounding, and she couldn't help but say, "You guys have entered the forbidden land" "Of course not" Kikukawa Yukinari shook his head: "Even if we want to, we can't get in, it's a cave, there are many samurai with their hands at the entrance of the cave, and there are mages from the royal family."
No one else wants to go in.
The meeting between me and the princess, I only dare to go around the back mountain, the entrance of the cave is the most handsome, but because of His Majesty's order that no one is allowed to go there, so no one even goes around, just so we have a place for a tryst" Kikukawa Yukinari sighed: "It's a pity that His Majesty found out last month, he scolded us hatefully, and we were never allowed to meet again." ” Kikukawa Yukinari's last sentence of regret and complaint, the three of them couldn't listen to it at all.
Nitis gave Roddy a smug look, which meant: How did I ask about it?
To be continued:
