Princess Aya looked at the intimate movements of the two with pleasure. As the eldest sister, she has maintained correspondence with her younger brother Nagao Kagetora over the years. Of course, she also knew where the awkwardness between the young lovers came from. The two reconciled after going through disasters.
As before, she felt reassured: "Wu Weidian and Hu Ji are truly a match made in heaven. Zheng Jing and I are looking forward to your wedding."
"I'm looking forward to it too... Hmm!" Seeing Kiragi still talking nonsense, Torahime hurriedly covered his mouth and complained softly: "Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense, okay? Torahime will be very troubled.
.”
"Understood, I won't talk nonsense!" Kira Yoshihi nodded quickly, and Hu Ji's statement made him feel relieved. This feeling of meeting his parents made him feel a little at a loss.
The brief meeting ended in a hurry when Kunimatsu was feeling unwell. Looking at the oxcart in the distance, Torahime sighed: "When onee-sama was pregnant with Kunimatsu, it happened to be the most difficult years for my Nagao family. Onee-sama was always worried.
Rang Guosong was born with some poor health and has been sick since he was a child. His condition has been getting better and worse over the years, and my sister is heartbroken for him."
"May gods and Buddhas bless Guosong to grow up safely."
"Well!" Torahime took out her rosary and recited in a low voice "The Sutra of Medicine Master Glazed Light Tathagata's Original Vows and Merit Sutra". She didn't know how to recite this sutra at first, but since Kira Yoshitsune almost died trying to save her, she has been doing it day and night.
After copying and reciting this sutra, I can now recite it fluently.
Passing Sakato Castle and heading north into the Shinano River, the fleet passed through Shimotsu along the Shinano River. In Shimotsu, we saw countless large and small swamp lakes, and some natural hot springs with thick water vapor, which made people feel
It feels like you are in the primitive era thousands of years ago, and there are many dry salt lakes.
"The scenery here is so beautiful, Your Highness, look! There are also a group of big white birds, they are flying!" Hu Ji was very excited, and danced with her two little hands as the white birds flew up.
Kira Yoshihi also laughed and said: "That's a big heron, that is, an egret. Hu Ji must have heard the poem about two orioles singing in the green willows, and a line of egrets ascending to the blue sky, right?"
"I've heard of it! Isn't it the poems of the poet Du Fu? Hu Ji is well-read!" Hu Ji wrinkled her small nose, raised her eyebrows and looked at him with a proud face, which meant that you came to praise me.
"Oh? Then I'll say another one, can you answer it?" It was rare to see Hu Ji's innocent look on her face, so he deliberately teased her, "Why are there two egrets by the water, and Wuyou has silk hanging on his head? From
Which poet?”
"It's not a problem for me! It's "Egret" by Bai Juyi."
"One kick of the egret fist makes the moon bright and the autumn water cold."
"The poet Li Bai's "Egrets sent the Song Shaofu to the Three Gorges"!"
…
The Uzakizaki Hall is located at the northern end of the Kofu Basin, in a fan-shaped terrain surrounded by Fujikawa and Aikawa on the east and west sides. It was first built in the 16th year of Eisho as a square residence building for Takeda Nobutora Mill Kyoto Flower Palace. It is said that it was
A residence is actually a small fortress-style city with an area of 46,000 square meters. After Murakami Yoshikiyo's shock in the past few years, the defense facilities of this flat city have been upgraded to an even higher level, with layers of outer and inner fortresses.
, the sky is extremely complex.
In the Nakagushi Rinnaikan, Takeda Harunobu was troubled by the unfavorable situation of the autumn harvest. A sudden storm brought endless floods. Not only was Kanto severely affected, the situation in Kai was not good either. Hachioji had worked so hard to build the
The streets were swallowed up by mudslides again, many people died and money, food and work hours were wasted.
Looking at the financial losses reported, Takeda Harunobu said helplessly: "What should we do now? The general service of Toriu County has been requisitioned. Do we need to requisition the general service of other counties?"
"I believe that people should still come out of Toru County." Komai Masatake said: "It's just that there may be complaints from Oyamada-den."
Iitomi Toramasa glanced at Komai Masatake, shook his head and said, "Isn't this inappropriate? Dewa Moriden has made great contributions to our Takeda family, Yasaburo-den is only fourteen years old, and Takahisai-den's suggestion is inappropriate."
Komai Masatake asked: "Then what should we do based on the wishes of the Ministry of War?"
"Of course it's to recruit general soldiers from other counties."
"Then what should be done with the disaster-stricken areas in the three counties? The Fuefuki River and Kamamashi River coasts were seriously affected. Where can we call in the public service for post-disaster reconstruction and reinforcement of embankments?"
"Isn't there someone in Shinano?"
"What about the disaster in Shinano?"
"What does Gao Bai Zhaidian mean?" Iito Huchang became angry, stood up angrily, and said angrily with his eyes wide open: "Do you have any objections to me, Huchang? If you have any objections, you can say it in person.
, don’t carry a gun with a stick, I, Huchang, am not afraid of you.”
"That's enough!" Takeda Harunobu waved his hand to stop the quarrel, pointed at Iitomi Tomasa and said: "Sit down for me, Tomasa. Fellow ministers must not become enemies over words. Have you forgotten what I often say?"
"Yes! I will remember it." Iito Toramasa knew that what Takeda Harunobu said was "people are the city, people are the village, people are the walls, favors are friends, hatred is the enemy!" This is what Takeda Harunobu usually says.
Love the words on your lips.
Atobe Nobuaki quickly smoothed things over and said with a smile: "The two highnesses are also working hard for my Takeda family, so just understand each other! Speaking of which, this year is really bad! A big flood is coming.
The harvest has been reduced by more than 10%. Your families have suffered some losses, right? To be honest, I have also suffered a lot in the territory of Senzuka!"
"Yes! My family also suffered a lot of losses!" The topic soon turned to the losses of the autumn harvest, which made Komai Masatake sigh and quickly expressed his gratitude to Atobe Nobuaki. He and Atobe Nobuaki were both the same.
The elder of the family during the Takeda Nobutora era, and both of them were close retainers of Takeda Harunobu. Atobe Nobuaki served as the performer, while Komai Masatake served as the assistant pen. They were also the most talkative members around Takeda Harunobu.
generation.
Iito Toramasa, on the other hand, belongs to a clan of the Takeda family. The Takeda family maintains its status as the leader of the Kai nation by relying on a huge clan branch developed over hundreds of years. They are different from the old clan members of the Genedai clan in the Takeda Harunobu era.
, he was originally a large manor owner in various places in Kai, with land and armed forces.
The former powerful Shodai clan of Kai were almost killed by Takeda Nobutora. A large number of them died in the war in Shinano in the past few years. Now they are simply not enough to fight against the Takeda clan, so there are all kinds of clans.
The friction between the clan and Shodai, such as this verbal dispute, is a small microcosm of the internal strife in the Takeda family.
Both parties are vying for the right to speak within the family, and Iito Toramasa obviously feels that as Taro Takeda Yoshinobu's back office, he should have a certain say in the government affairs of the family. This intervention is the responsibility of the elders of the Genedai family.
The domestic affairs popularization issue was a less successful attempt.
The white-haired Imai Sagami Morinobuo and his younger brother Imai Toraho nodded towards Iitomi Tomasa. The two brothers are only one year apart, one is sixty-eight years old and the other is sixty-seven years old.
He followed Takeda Nobutora closely when he first started his army. Later, he joined the Sou family in resisting Takeda Nobutora and also contributed. After the Sou family surrendered, they also received Takeda Nobutora's two terms.
The uncles and nephews Imai Nobumoto and Imai Nobumasa on the other side also nodded to them. They belong to the direct lineage of the Imai family. During the reign of Emperor Xianlu, Imai Nobuyoshi and Imai Nobumoto, their father and son, successively worked with Oi Nobuta and Oi Nobuya.
Father and son, as well as Kurihara Nobuya, the Kurihara Hyogo brothers, and Iito Toramasa fought against Takeda Nobutora. After the defeat, Imai Nobuyoshi surrendered to the Takeda family and was forgiven.
Imai Nobumasa is the eldest son of Imai Nobmoto's younger brother Imai Nobhara, and he is also the most trusted member of Takeda Harunobu. He serves as the head warrior of the Takeda family. This family belongs to two generations of Takeda family governors and still maintains trust, which is a qualification.
The old and high-ranking Takeda clan.
A group of people, including Morokaku Tosada, Morokaku Toden and his son, Amari Torada, Yoshimi Nobuchika, Oi Toramasa, and Takeda Nobukatsu's son-in-law, Takeda Nobutora's sworn brother Asari Tora, all expressed their feelings towards Takeda Harunobu.
The public expressed serious concern and dissatisfaction with the reuse of Pudai, and even the old and new Pudai who were reused by Takeda Harunobu also hated it.
Especially a few years after Itagaki Nobukata's death, Takeda Harunobu used his head to kill Itagaki Nobukata's legitimate son, Itagaki Nobunori, which made many people seriously doubt whether Takeda Harunobu would follow the same path as his father.
His father, Takeda Nobutora, chopped off a lot of heads in order to kill Kagami Tohko. Later, when he went to war with the Imagawa family, he chopped off a lot of heads in a bunch of other families. Finally, he was exiled by the Ichidai alliance with Takeda Harunobu.
Takeda Harunobu is naturally aware of all this, but there are some things you still have to do even if you know you will encounter strong opposition, such as promoting your trusted retainers and gradually abandoning the family that defended the Takeda family during his father Nobutora Takeda's time.
Now he is using the Pudai family elders to suppress a group of people. In the future, he will use the new Pudai family elders to suppress these Pudai family elders. These are all necessary steps to strengthen the centralization of power in the central government.
Seeing that the ministers' expressions were not right, Takeda Nobushige stood up and said: "Master, don't worry too much. The foundation of the Takeda family is not damaged. It is just building roads and repairing dams. As long as we spend some of this year's military expenditure, it will be enough."
Used it.”
"Well, I have this intention, but what should I do about Shinano? If Echigo's Nagao Army takes the opportunity to enter Shinano and cause trouble, how should I respond?" Takeda Harunobu raised his new question.
"Please rest assured, my lord! I was just about to say this." Komai Masatake said with a smile: "Although there was something wrong this summer, which caused the Nagao family's important minister Ohuma Bizenmori to fail in his rebellion and flee to Echu, my subordinate's transfer
The strategy still plays a big role, and they have already stated that they will raise the flag of rebellion at the appropriate time, which should probably be after the autumn harvest."
"Oh? Is that so? That's really a good thing! Hahaha..." Takeda Harunobu calmed down and said to the ministers with a smile: "Our powerful enemy in the north is falling into chaos, and this is a precious thing left for us.
Let’s repair the roads and embankments as soon as possible and prepare for the Okushinano battle next year!”
"Yes!" No matter what their thoughts were, nearly a hundred retainers in the town leaned down to express their submission to the master of Kai. (To be continued.)
