Looking at the frustrated Obata Nobuzada, Yukitaka Sanada asked deliberately.

"Obata-hime, what do you think? Do you still need me to introduce you to His Highness Takeda?"

Kobata Nobuzada shook his head and sighed.

"Please allow me to think about it again. Alas, the world is so big that there is no place for me to live.

I pride myself on being brave and brave, but am I really going to live in mediocrity all my life and never get ahead? I really can’t bear to do it.”

Yukitaka Sanada smiled slightly.

"That's not necessarily the case."

Obata Nobuzada raised his head and glanced at Yukitaka Sanada, kowtowed to the ground decisively, and said.

"Please Mr. Sanada, please show me a clear path."

Yukitaka Sanada asked.

"Obata-hime, do you know Shiba Kenshin-kun?"

Kobata Nobuzada nodded.

"How could you not know that the name of the Imperial Palace is as loud as thunder? Echigo's military was at its peak, and the Imperial Palace played a part in its control.

The Kanto warriors' battle at Sano led the battle with great splendor, and we, the Kanto samurai family, are truly blessed to have seen the legendary valor of the direct descendants of the Genji clan in Kawachi."

Sanada Yukitaka nodded.

"The imperial court does not show favor to women, which makes us Samurai Princess ashamed. Since you admire the elegant style of the royal palace, Obata-hime, why don't you consider joining the Kanto Imperial Palace?"

Kobata Nobuzada was stunned for a moment and asked.

"I was expelled from Nishi Ueno by my mother-in-law because of what the Hojo family said. How could the Echigo family be willing to take me in?"

Sanada Yukitaka shook his head and said.

"This is wrong.

Mr. Nagano cruelly expelled you in order to eliminate the voices of Nishi Ueno being close to the Hojo family and to give His Highness Uesugi an explanation.

But what does this matter have to do with the Kanto Palace?"

Kobata Nobuzada thought for a while, but still didn’t understand, and said.

"Please give me a clear explanation, Mr. Sanada."

Yukitaka Sanada smiled and pointed at her and said.

"You are wise once in a while and confused sometimes.

His Highness Uesugi brought order to things and could not tolerate the rebellion of those who were close to the Hojo family. In order to give an explanation to His Highness Uesugi, Mr. Nagano had no choice but to kill off his relatives.

However, the Kantō Imperial Palace is an institution of the shogunate. When the Imperial Imperial Palace came to Kantō, it was clearly stated that it would reorganize the imperial family of Kantō and make it available to the direct descendants of the Genji family in Kawachi.

Since you voluntarily left Nishi Ueno, you have cleared your previous sins and stayed out of the matter. Why can't you join the Kanto Courthouse, serve the shogunate, and serve the direct descendants of the Genji family in Kawachi?

The Kobata family of Kunamine Castle comes from the Kodama Party, one of the Seven Musashi Parties. The Kodama Party was a powerful imperial family member during the Kamakura Shogunate. Your family background is enough to join the Kanto Imperial Palace and serve the Imperial Palace.

At present, within the Kanto Imperial Household, the Echigo clan is the dominant one, and the imperial office is also very embarrassed. Of course, he is willing to have more imperial families from other neighboring countries join him, and he is also open-minded.

Look at Ogasawara Changshi, even though his family fortune has declined, he can still be protected by Odai, and he can find a place in Hokushin, and no one dares to bully him."

Xiaobata Nobuzada suddenly realized.

Yukitaka Sanada said a lot of truths, most of which were nonsense. In fact, they all pointed to the same meaning. Echigo was not monolithic, and the interests of Uesugi Teruhora and Shiba Yoshigan were inconsistent.

Nagano is the person who is close to Uesugi Terutora. Your bet on the Hojo family failed and they were forced to go into exile. Now that things have happened, you can go to the Kanto Palace to place another bet.

The Echigo army has defeated the Hojo army and will be strong in Kanto for a long time.

I bet that it would be difficult for other forces to defeat Echigo. There is no need for Kobata Nobusada to sacrifice the near and seek the far away. If you can't beat them, just join. There is no shame in Mu Qiang of the samurai family.

Nagano is joining the Uesugi side, and Kobata Nobusada can go and pledge allegiance to the Kanto Servant House. With the influence of her former family governor of the Kohata family in Mine City, Shiba Yoshigan has no reason not to accept her.

Nagano Industry is dominating Nishi-Ueno, which is also a hidden danger for Echigo. With Obata Nobuzada in hand, Yoshihiro Shiba has a fulcrum that can leverage the situation in Nishi-Ueno.

The more Obata Nobuzada thought about it, the brighter her eyes became. She realized that she was indeed valuable to Shiba Yoshiyin. As long as she was valuable, she would have a chance to get ahead.

The road pointed out by Yukitaka Sanada was indeed good. Nobuzada Kobata was sincerely convinced and bowed in thanks.

"Thank you, Mr. Sanada. Listening to Ji's words, my trip was well worth it."

Yukitaka Sanada said with a smile.

"You and I have been friends for many years, so there is no need to say such foreign words.

Obata-hime, you have no roots in the Kanto Palace, and I am a little worried about you. If you are determined to go and serve, you might as well do this.

My useless little granddaughter served as a servant in Guandong, achieved some military exploits, and gained some status.

I’ll write a handwritten letter for you to take to Azuma County to find my granddaughter who can recommend you to the imperial office, okay?”

Yukitaka Sanada spent a long time talking just for this moment.

Terutora Uesugi and Yoshigan Shiba are launching a strategy to conquer Kanto. It is impossible for the two of them to have a quarrel over such a trivial matter as Nobusada Obata and Imasa Nagano.

Yoshigan Shiba will be attracted to Nishi Ueno, but he has to worry about the reaction of Uesugi and others, so he will probably choose to deal with it coldly first.

As the actual controller of Agatsuma County, Sanada Nobushige was connected to the Nishi Ueno territory, and he was also the introducer of Nobada Obata.

Shiba Yoshigan will definitely leave Obata Nobutsada with Sanada Nobunaga for long-term planning.

And Yukitaka Sanada also achieved his goal, adding a heavy bargaining chip to Nobuhige Sanada's Nishi Ueno strategy.

Xiaobata didn't know that he had been betrayed by Yukitaka Sanada, but he was still overjoyed and bowed.

"Then thank you, Mr. Sanada, for your trouble. I will remember everything you have done for me, and I will definitely pay you back in the future."

Yukitaka Sanada smiled and waved his hands and said.

"It's no longer an affair, there's no need for this to happen between us."

Obata Nobuzada now has a direction to work towards, and her mood has improved a lot. She is chatting and laughing with Yukitaka Sanada.

The two parties chatted for a while, and Yukitaka Sanada asked Nobuzada Obata to rest first, and then write a letter for her and prepare her luggage and food for the journey.

Obata Nobuzada burst into tears of gratitude. After bowing deeply, the waiter led him out of the tea room.

Sanada Yukitaka's face was tired. She was old, and the long conversation made her feel weak. She picked up the cooled tea on the table, took a slow sip, and said.

"Come out."

The sliding door behind her opened, and her daughter Masayuki Sanada came out with a troubled look on her face.

Yukitaka Sanada glanced at her and asked.

"What? Do you have any questions about what I did?"

Sanada Masayuki kowtowed to the ground and said.

"My daughter doesn't dare. It's just that... mother, is there anything inappropriate in luring Obata Nobuzada to Nobutano?"

Sanada Yukitaka asked without moving his expression.

"Tell me, what's wrong?"

Masayuki Sanada said.

"If Nobata Nobuzada becomes an official of the Takeda family, His Highness Takeda will definitely take our eastern believers as the vanguard to conquer the western Ueno land.

When the time comes, our Sanada family will definitely get a lot of benefits. The improvement of the status of the Takeda family and the enlargement of the territory are foreseeable.

The opportunity is right in front of you, but you turned away Kobata Nobuzada and led her to the Kanto Palace.

Nobushige's Matsushiro clan was already quite large, and after annexing Azuma County, it reached more than ten thousand koku. The main family's territory in Toshin was far inferior to that of her branch family.

If she takes advantage of Nobuzada Obata and takes over the Nishi Ueno land in the future, she will be able to gain the power of hundreds of thousands of koku.

At that time, will my family still be able to control her will? What will Xinzhi think? If this gap leads to Xiao Qiang's disaster, what should we do?"

Masayuki Sanada was worried because his eldest daughter, Masayuki, was very talented and not mediocre.

Masayuki Sanada should be happy to have given birth to two outstanding daughters, Yukiyuki Sanada and Nobushige Sanada. But if a bowl of water is uneven, the Sanada family will be in big trouble in the future.

Many martial arts families declined not because they lost in foreign wars. It was because the sisters in the family drew swords against each other and fought in the same room, which caused the family fortune to wither.

Yukitaka Sanada drank the cold tea in one gulp, savoring the cold taste as it slid into his esophagus.

"Masayuki Sanada!"

"Hi!"

Hearing Yukitaka Sanada shout out his full name sharply, Masayuki Sanada kowtowed to the ground and listened to his mother's teachings.

"It's only been a few years since we came back? How many years has it been since the Sanada family returned to their homeland? Have you forgotten those days when you were homeless and living under someone else's roof?"

"No! I will never forget!"

Yukitaka Sanada sighed when he saw his daughter looking up and the unforgettable tingling in her eyes.

"Do you think we have returned home, revived our family business, and settled down?

My daughter, please wake up, these are troubled times. As powerful as the Takeda family, they may be destroyed one day, let alone our little Sanada family.
