Horyu-ji - Toshodaiji route

We are travelling for 1 day from Osaka to Nara.

First, we explore central Nara with Tōdai-ji etc.

Then we would take a train to Hōryū-ji.

After that I thought we could go to the Toshodaiji/Yakushiji area, but I have no idea HOW. Is there a bus which goes there directly from Hōryū-ji?

Yes, but a bit inconvenient.

Are you interested in the Ancient Buddhism in Japan?

Oh but I can't read Japanese...

Yeah I'm basically interested in everything about Japan and Buddhism too, yes. Why, do you have any suggestions for me?

Sorry, I can't find English page about this.
I just wanted to say that you can skip that temples if you don't have so interest.
