The temperature in Dewa Country dropped sharply as autumn entered, and the days became shorter and shorter each day. The clothes on their bodies became thicker and thicker. The beautiful and brilliant summer left them with little time left to enjoy the autumn. Dewa Junior High School has since
Everyone is busy with autumn harvest work. Taking stock of this year's harvest is more important than fighting. According to the rules agreed by Yu Olympic, even if there is a war in this season, we should call off the troops and go home to spend the winter. If it is later, we will miss our autumn harvest.
Don't tell me to go, it won't be that easy to go home after the first snow falls.
This year's climate is not normal. Repeated droughts and heavy rains have greatly affected the agriculture of Dewa Country. The drought is simply heavier and the snow on the mountains that is difficult to melt will not be too serious, but the losses will not be too serious.
With the slightest decrease, most samurai including the Mogami family encountered similar problems.
This was the first time that Mogami Yoshimitsu presided over a post-autumn harvest evaluation meeting as a family supervisor. The data before him really made him feel embarrassed. Due to drought, grain production had dropped by an average of 20%.
The entire territory of Murayama County and parts of Mogami County are about 250,000 koku. A reduction of 20,000 koku means that there are only 200,000 koku. A decrease of 20,000 koku means that many land servants will not have enough to eat and many farmers will suffer from hunger.
It's freezing, I'm afraid things will be even harder in the coming year.
Because of the bad years, his consorts Tendo Yori-sada, Nozawa Mitsubishi, and others are all sighing and complaining about the bad years. A good evaluation will be ruined by this matter, and Mogami Yoshimitsu
Seeing this situation, there is no point in continuing the meeting. The only way to end this inconclusive evaluation meeting is in a hurry.
Walking in the corridor back to the castle tower, Mogami Yoshimitsu's brows still did not open. He had been looking very worried in recent days. The reason was that the complicated affairs at home made it difficult for him to be the governor of the household. Since the beginning of summer, he has assumed the position of Mogami.
He had only experienced the difficulties of being a governor since he became the governor of the family. No wonder his father always kept a straight face all day long and refused to give him any good looks. He was always asked endless questions by the retainers, as well as all kinds of difficult problems that he could not solve.
The solution was forced out.
Mogami Yoshimitsu sat on the porch with his head in his hands, thinking distressedly: "It's really hard to be the governor of this household!"
When he was distressed, a clear and childish voice came into his ears: "Your Highness, should I call you Shangzang?"
"Huh? How did you come up with this question?"
Mogami Yoshimitsu understood immediately. He accidentally overheard the conversation between his sister and future brother-in-law. Just as he was thinking about whether he should get up and hide carefully, he heard the little girl's voice saying: "Because the female officer quietly told me yesterday
Yoshihime, from now on, you will call Your Highness Jojo, this seems to be the rule of Kira... Kamisuke Ashikaga!"
Kira Yoshitoki held the little hand of Mogami Yoshihime and walked under the red leaf tree. He grabbed a fiery red leaf and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter! This family rule is not necessarily enforced. For example, those sisters of yours in Kasugayama
I always called Yu your highness. Yu also liked this title. Yu felt that husband and wife should be more intimate. It was uncomfortable to live with the honorific title all the time. In the future, Yi Ji only needs to teach the children the rules.
.Don’t pay too much attention to the details of this title.”
"Oh! I remember Yiji!" The beautiful little girl nodded in understanding, and she let him hold her little hand for a walk from beginning to end. His Highness was very gentle and loving towards her.
He never said harsh words to her, and always listened patiently to her talk about the butterflies she caught, the petals she collected, and the childish topics such as learning a few new words. She never showed any boredom or impatience.
.
What pleased Mogami Yoshihime the most was that His Highness took her out for fun. They went boating on the Mogami River, climbed Mt. Hachijo to admire the Goseki Marsh, and the strange mountains and hills on Haguro Mountain. They brought strange hats and hats with them.
There is a conch hanging on the chest of the tin staff. It is very interesting to see her running away like a human bear.
His Highness told her that those people were Shugendo monks from all over the world, and also told her many strange stories, ranging from Emperor Ajin's Eastern Expedition to His Highness's defeat of Takeda Shingen at Kawanaka Island, and as far away as the Qin Emperor and Han Dynasty in the Ming Dynasty.
There are weird stories about Wu Tang Zong, Song Zu, and even a great emperor named Caesar from the Southern Barbarians.
Sometimes when he couldn't climb the mountain, His Highness would hold her light body and walk among the mountains and forests. In just one summer, he visited the famous mountains and rivers of Dewa Country, and even took her to Sakada Port to buy many things he had never seen before.
There were beautiful things, fragrant rouge, interesting windmills, and many fun board games. She made up for all the things she had never seen or played since she was a child. She suddenly felt that this His Highness was her own
My husband must be the best, better than my father is to my mother.
Although she knew that His Highness would be her husband, this husband did not seem to be the husband that her mother had mentioned before. At a young age, Mogami Yoshiki still did not understand what love was, and she did not know why her husband could be changed.
When she carefully asked her mother, all she got was a quiet smile.
Although her mother did not tell her the answer, she could see many differences from her mother's eyes and her brother's excited attitude. Even her father, who had already retired, did not seem to be unhappy. From the attitude of her family, she
It can still be seen that everyone is very satisfied with this husband.
When she was playing in the garden in the past few days, she seemed to hear the maids vaguely mentioning topics such as "The Duke of Zhenfu is powerful in the world" and "The Genji family is famous and noble". She remembered that her brother had repeatedly emphasized to her that this His Highness
Her status was extremely noble. She was married as a concubine and had to serve His Highness well. The silly little girl asked what a "concubine" was, which embarrassed her smart and courageous brother for a long time.
Mogami Yoshihime lowered her head and whispered: "Your Highness, are you Yoshihime's husband? Does being Yoshihime's husband allow Yoshihime to have a baby? I heard the female officer say a lot of things that Yoshihime cannot understand.
, it seems that you have to serve His Highness in order to have a baby, but Yi Ji doesn’t know how to serve His Highness? What should I do?"
Kira Yoshishi held her little hand and said with a smile: "Hey! Just listen to these things! In the future, there will be people who teach Ji Ji when you marry. Don't think too much about complicated things now. Ji Ji is the most important thing now.
What I want is to grow up healthy, eat well, sleep well, learn etiquette and culture, and grow taller. Only then can our little baby grow as tall as Yu!"
It was really difficult for a young man as big as Kira Yoshiki to hold a conversation with a little girl who was only twelve years old and less than 1.3 meters tall. He was not a lolita control person, but each of his concubines was younger than the last.
Of course, he can also understand that the rules of this era are like this. The woman who marries Kiragi must be young and beautiful, and it will not be his turn if the older one marries early.
Moreover, the high-ranking samurai of this era married many main wives who were younger than their own children, and the side wives were also relatively normal. For example, Matsunagahide was more than ten years older than Miyoshi Nagakei, but he married Miyoshi Nagakei's daughter. Another example is Kira Yoshitoki.
It is not unusual for his cheap father-in-law, Mitsukane Numata, to marry a concubine who is much younger than his eldest son.
Kira Yoshitoki had never thought about marrying the daughter of the Mogami family before, nor would he accompany a minor around with nothing to do. Only recently did he remember the allusion of Mogami Yoshihime, so he spent extra time getting along with this little girl, not only
It was because of his thoughts that were different from this era, and it was also because he wanted to determine whether Mogami Yoshiki was the legendary "cruel-hearted villain" who would attack his legitimate son like a "black widow"
legend.
But judging from the current situation, it seems that is not the case at all. Mogami Yoshihime is indeed a beautiful and cute little girl. Even if she puts on very ugly aristocratic makeup, she cannot hide her natural beauty. The genes of the Mogami clan are good and the Mogami Yoshihime
Mamoru himself is also a handsome samurai, and he is definitely considered a handsome man in front of a group of crooked melons and jujubes in Dewa Kingdom. Kira Yoshitoki's mother-in-law, Major General Ono, is a very attractive and beautiful woman. She gave birth to sons and daughters.
very beautiful.
It is said that Date Harumune has an average appearance. It is reasonable for Date Terumune to inherit part of his mother's appearance, but it is still far behind Kiragi. At any rate, he can be regarded as a handsome boy with extraordinary grace in Kyoto. Now
Thinking back to the time when he was wandering around Kyoto, he was not abducted by the monks from Nandu Beiling and the five mountains and five temples to practice Taoism. He was very lucky.
After a summer of getting along with each other, Yoshiki Kira gradually figured out the temperament of this little girl. Yoshiki Mogami is a silly little girl. Not only is she naive and simple, but she also takes death seriously. She believes that her brother is the most powerful boy in Deyu, and she will not stop.
He praised his elder brother in front of Kira Yoshitoki, which made Kira Yoshiki test it a few times in a funny way, and found that the little girl just simply admired his brother, probably because of a bunch of strange theories told by Yoshimitsu Mogami when he was a child.
Stay fooled.
But now she has another object of worship, and that is the husband of Yoshitoki Kira, because he is the husband of Mogami Yoshihime, and he also defeated his father and "the strongest Deyu" brother Mogami Yoshimitsu, and was defeated by the way.
There are also various daimyo people from all walks of life in Dewa Province. The little girl's world view has not yet been fully formed. She has only spent time in the palm-sized Yamagata Castle since she was a child, either catching butterflies or looking at the clouds. She spent her time stupidly and clumsily.
Her carefree childhood.
If Kira Yoshitoki hadn't intervened, her fate might have followed that path to marry Date Terumune, give birth to a one-eyed son for the Date family, and then be framed by her heartless son and get splashed all over her body.
Zheng Shui endured three hundred years of unjust injustice and became a "poisonous woman" even more "cruel and evil" than Tomiko Hino. (To be continued...)
ps: Mogami Yoshihime was miserably blackmailed by Date Masamune. I won’t go into the specific black history. For those who are interested, Ume can post some Japanese information.
