The end of the twelfth lunar month every year is extremely busy, or the entire Kasugayama Castle is busy. Kiragi is busy with meetings and small meetings every day, dragging two people to deal with some government affairs and having to answer them one by one. Fortunately, many government affairs are
The public's approval was first implemented on a trial basis, and what was handed over to the family supervisor was basically the attachment for review.
If the house supervisor feels that it is not appropriate, then he will convene an office meeting with the followers to deal with it. He will give a clear explanation and allow the formal implementation. If it does not pass, he can also stop the trial. If the house supervisor has to intervene in everything one by one, then the house supervisor will not be seen in the past two months.
Just one trace is enough to cause chaos in the Kira family, and the Fengxingzhong will lose the basic meaning of its existence. Besides, he, the family governor, is really too busy.
Three consecutive years of drought or floods, erratic weather, and epidemics of infectious diseases have kept the followers busy for a while. Unsurprisingly, this year's grain income has remained at last year's baseline. If not
With the support of Echigo's solid foundation, he might have to tighten his belt to get by as a retainer.
In addition to the routine meetings and government affairs to be handled, there is also a Zhengdan court meeting that must be busy preparing. Every year on the first day of the first lunar month, ministers gather, and allies and relatives from all over the country also send envoys to join in. It takes at least a few
Thousands of people poured into Kasugayama Castle, and the business travelers who heard the news came from all directions to Naoetsu Town to do business or inquire about news. The sudden increase in the flow of people, not to mention how much food and drinks had to be prepared, was enough for the pressure of security.
The city guard raised the alert level to the highest level.
As the Kira family's business prospered, the annual Shodan court meeting became more grand. It was originally just a party for hundreds of samurai to drink and brag, but now it has become a major event affecting the Eastern Kingdom. Regardless of Kanto
Whether the various samurai and Kira families can talk to each other, they all send envoys to bring some local products and say a few words of courtesy. They don't ask for anything, they just want to be familiar with each other.
The samurai in Kantō are no longer the invincible Kamakura samurai. The souls of the samurai are constantly being lost as the chaos spreads across Kantō. Although their chaotic nature remains unchanged, they are more tactful than their ancestors, and those who are stubborn
Most of the warriors have been killed by the waves, and most of the survivors are cunning people.
Of course, there are exceptions to this, such as the uncle and nephew Ota Yasushi and Ota Shimasa. These two people, who came to Echigo for almost half a year, must have persisted despite a huge sense of loss. They were not discouraged at all despite being rejected many times.
I knew that it was much more difficult to get into the Kira family than the ordinary samurai family. Even the Satake family, a famous family in Kanto, would treat their uncles and nephews as honored guests, but this town master would not treat them like this at all.
The family background of Settsu Genji is not low in Kanto, but in the eyes of the Ashikaga family, it is not good at all. Minamoto Yorimasa's direct descendant died in the turmoil of the Kamakura shogunate long ago. As one of several tributaries of Minamoto Yorimasa, the Ota family
Things were not going well in the shogunate. The Ota family was just the head of the Ogitani Uesugi family. The Ogidani Uesugi family, the head of the Ota family, was the descendant of the Kanto family. The Yamauchi Uesugi family, the leader of the same family, was the Kanto family.
Fang's family leader. This means that the Ota family is only the official minister of the Kanto family.
The so-called retainers are the retainers of the retainers, just like the two people Naoe Koai and Katakura Kojuro admired by the monkey. They were the generational retainers of the little sister and the one-eyed dragon respectively. The little sister and the one-eyed dragon were nominally the retainers of the monkey at the time, so these two
An individual is the retainer of the monkey's retainer, and the two greatest retainers in the world means that the monkey cannot get two retainers, but only admires their talent and loyalty.
The Ota family managed to become a famous family in Kanto, but it was completely different in front of the official Gosho Soto of the shogunate. When the uncle and nephew saw Uesugi Kenmasa, they had to consider whether to bow their heads and salute.
It is natural that Fang Tongtong is not a great figure in front of the great nobles.
The only person who can prove it is Ota Michigan, who has never been to Kyoto and has never seen the shogunate. One of the things worth boasting about is that he received the Seven Books of Military Sutra as a gift from Hosokawa Katsumoto and created his own "Ashigaru Military Law"
", because it is only recorded in the "Ota Genealogy" and there is no relevant record in the Hosokawa family's documents, so it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity. The true status of the Ota family is probably less than that of the Okouchi family in Mikawa Hatzu County.
Ota Yasushi and Ota Shimasa knew that they were not qualified to show off. Not to mention the family status of the Ashikaga family and the current power of Echigo, there were countless samurai who asked for an opportunity to meet Kiragi like them.
Kanto commander Uesugi Kenmasa and Shinano guarded Ogasawara Nagatoki, but they were repeatedly rejected and made things difficult for them. With the demise of the Yamauchi Uesugi family, the two of them became the national lords of Minami Musashi. There is such a huge gap, so what is there to complain about?
.
Kira Yoshi really didn't want to test the patience of the two of them. In the summer, he was busy dealing with the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance and the Kanto Duke Ashikaga Fujimasa who had a problem with his head. He had no time to care about these two Japanese lords who requested to restore their territories.
After autumn, I started to deal with the affairs of these two families one after another, and then issued the military order to go to Guandong. I went to Naojiangjin to hook up with Nanman girls and enjoy the benefits of being a winner in life. I had the time to meet these two bitter and feuding middle-aged uncles there.
.
After finishing the work at hand, I heard that these two persevering people came to see me again. Looking at the sun, I knew that my wives were still engaged in entertainment activities in Tingyuyuan. Not to mention that the wives were not in the imperial palace, and the children were also there.
They were all carried over to play, and he had nothing to do when he went back, so he might as well call the two of them over to listen to what they had to say.
Not long after, he saw two samurai, one middle and one young, walking in and saluting him respectfully. Needless to say, he also knew that the slightly younger one was Ota Yasushi, and the older one was Ota Shimasa. Both of them looked pretty good-looking.
In terms of senses, the upper-middle level is considered a good level in this era. The only drawback is that the grimace slightly reduces points.
Xu Shi has seen too many famous generals in these years, and he has no ups and downs at all for the famous historical figure Ohta Shimasa. He responded reservedly to the two of them and said: "It is very hard for your two highnesses to come all the way.
How are you doing in the bitter cold land? Tell us what difficulties you face in daily life, and I will help you meet the reasonable needs of your two highnesses."
"We are living a good life in Kasugayama Castle. Echigo is a good place, but we still miss the water and soil of our hometown more. I hope His Highness can help us regain our skills. We are willing to work hard for His Highness." After half a year of refusal, we have given up.
When the two met for the first time, it was inevitable that they would feel a little impatient. Yasushi Ohta forcibly changed the topic to the topic of reinstatement.
Kira Yoshi said calmly: "So that's it! You two have come all the way to Echigo."
After saying these two sentences, he closed his mouth and drank tea slowly. His eyes slowly turned to the landscape paintings in the hall. While drinking tea, he admired the masterpieces. As if he didn't hear his request, Ota Yasushi was very blocked by these words.
Embarrassed, he was about to speak forcefully but was gently pulled back by Ota Shizheng. He turned around and saw his compatriot shaking his head at him, and then he realized that his hasty proposal had the opposite effect.
Ota Shizheng coughed and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness Zhenfu is a famous martial arts family all over the world. Over the years, he has conquered the rebellious ministers and pacified the Eastern Kingdom and made great achievements, which makes the Kanto warriors admire him very much. We, the Ota family, are originally the Qingwa Genji family.
First-class, honored as the head of the Uesugi family of Ogidani. He only had the rebellious intention to take revenge on the main family because of the assassination caused by his ancestor, Lord Doguan.
Unexpectedly, the villainous Hojo clan broke into Musashi and became tyrannical. They seized my territory for no reason and drove us away. As a result, I, the Ota clan, could not return home and wandered away. Fortunately, I have His Highness the Lord of the Town who is willing to work for the stability of the shogunate, so we went north to Vietnam.
Later, I asked to see His Highness the Lord of the Prefecture to ask for a favor to regain my family title. For this reason, I, the Ota clan, would like to be loyal to His Highness the Lord of the Prefecture from generation to generation."
Compared with the immature Ota Yasushi who is less than 30 years old, the nearly 40-year-old Ota Shimasa is not only brave and resourceful, but also proficient in cultural speech. His level of speaking is much higher. With some words, he has become a member of the family.
Decades of events were summarized, and the image of the Ota family who was rebellious after being insulted by the master's family was successfully created. He also quietly cleared the ground for his shameless behavior of betraying the enemy on the battlefield and leading to the failure of the Kawagoe Night War.
The little tricks played by Ota Shima could not be hidden from Kira Yoshitoki's eyes. This kind of trick in words has been seen countless times in Kyoto. It is quite new to encounter it again in Kanto, which has a relatively poor cultural background.
, listened for a while and pretended to be thinking about his proposal, but in fact, he was quietly observing the movements of the two people to judge their mental activities.
Kira Yoshitoki is not a moral freak, nor is he a moral defender. Compared to ruthless methods, he may be more powerful than Takeda Shingen. He just likes a good reputation and does not like to play treacherous tricks. The only move that can be called a betrayal of an alliance
Even if he deceived the Asakura family, he still set a trap in the covenant itself.
It only stipulates that the two families should share Kaga without mentioning what would happen if the Kira family first seizes half of Kaga, and then supports Kaga Ichimune to prevent the Asakura family from taking the other half.
The Kura family was at a disadvantage, and they had no way of blaming Kiragi, because they might have had this idea themselves, and they would definitely not get any advantage in the matter. They should also beware of the Kira ninja fanning the flames in the Kinai area and bringing Asakura to the sword.
Yoshikage was shaped into the image of Miyoshi Changqing, who stood up to all odds and was a notorious figure.
Kira Yoshishi nodded and said: "It is understandable that your two highnesses miss their homeland and hope to restore their old territory. I, the Ashikaga family, are also making preparations to go south to Kanto. Since your two highnesses intend to serve my family, Ashikaga family, why don't we just leave here?
Go to Hirai Castle in Ueno Province and wait for the dispatch of Uesugi Tanshoden. He is the general of the southward expedition to Kanto. As for the loyalty of the two His Highnesses, I thought for a long time and decided to accept it. However, I still want to say something first.
Let me tell you this so that you two won’t think it’s unreasonable for me to go to the Ashikaga family!
It must be clear that the strict laws of the shogunate are definitely different from those of the scattered Kanto samurai family. I hope that the two telecom lovers will be worthy of their names as descendants of Duke Doguan and display their loyalty and bravery to serve the shogunate. It is important to know whether they are loyal or not.
It’s about long-term actions rather than simple word guarantees. The Kawachi clan, the eldest of the Kanadai clan under my wife, is also a member of your Ota clan. This clan has been loyal to the Ashikaga clan for more than three hundred years. I believe that the two highnesses should understand that they are stained with dishonor.
It takes a hundred times more loyalty to wash away the truth!"
What Kira Yoshitoshi wanted to express was very clear. It is not impossible to accept you as retainers, but your bad deeds really make people uneasy. He is obviously a famous samurai family in Kanto, but he betrayed the Ogidani Uesugi clan at a critical moment and was defeated in the night battle in Kawagoe.
At the most critical moment, he stabbed his master's house, which indirectly led to the complete defeat of the Kawagoe Night War. Although this incident was done by Ota Yasushi's father, Ota Shigo, and basically had nothing to do with Ota Shimasa, but
I still have to bear the stigma of being of the same race.
It’s embarrassing to have an old incident from more than ten years ago brought up on the spot, especially when one of these two people is the legitimate son of the person involved, and he was an uninfluential bystander before he even entered the Yuan Dynasty. The other one also fought for the Ogidani Uesugi family as a member of the Kwantung Allied Forces.
However, when my future master questioned my loyalty, I was so ashamed that I almost committed suicide.
We can't blame Kira Yoshi for not taking care of their face. But the Ota family does have certain problems. If there are reasons for betraying the Uesugi family of Ogitani, then betraying the Hojo family is purely a fight for independence. After all, "Odawara"
The names of Ota Yasushi and Ota Shimasa are recorded in the "Everyone's Account". They served as Hojo retainers for more than ten years, and they betrayed many times and did many things that were unacceptable to the Hojo family. They were just converted into exile.
It's a kind of grace.
The two of them felt extremely ashamed, and the idea of committing suicide only stayed in their minds for a moment before disappearing. It was not because they were timid and did not dare to die, but because they could not die like this. Just like what Kira Yoshitoki said just now, they were stained with stigma.
More efforts are needed to wash away the shame. No matter what the reasons were for betraying the Ogitani Uesugi family and the Hojo family, their stigma will directly affect Kira Yoshitoki's attitude and views towards these two people.
No one can guarantee whether this family will betray them again at the next moment, especially under the premise that the loyalty of these two families is at the cost of seizing the old territory. If these two people regain the old territory with the help of the Ashikaga family, it will not take long.
Won't it be embarrassing for Kira Yoshitoki and the Ashikaga family to revert to their old ways and try to be independent or to ask for privileges such as being excluded from the county magistrate's office?
These words were neither blind exaggeration nor intimidation with ulterior motives, but a conscious warning to the two of them that there would be a price to pay for restoring the old territory from the hands of the Ashikaga clan. The price was to be loyal and brave enough to live up to the reputation of their ancestor Ota Michizan.
.If the two of them feel that they can't do it, they can leave immediately. Kira Yoshitoki will never force two idiots who are ignorant of current affairs to stay. If they are willing to stay, they must accept the laws of the Ashikaga family and their honesty and loyalty.
Sincerely serve the public.
The second choice depends on how they choose. The ugly words squeezed out the space for the two of them to play tricks in the future. After thinking about it for a while, the two still felt that the only way to get back their lost territory was to rely on the powerful Ashikaga clan. Although Yoshiaki Satake was
This generation of tycoons are all outstanding in Kanto in terms of ability and skill. Unfortunately, the Satake family's territory is too small, and Satake Yoshiaki's aura is not broad enough.
From his refusal to take control of Kantō, it can be seen that his ambition is limited to being the overlord of Hitachi Kingdom, and has the ability to interfere with the situation in Kantō and Minamimutsu rather than dominate Kantō. Ota Shimasa has also long seen that Satake Yoshiaki
What is important is that Ota Shimasa's army commanding methods can destroy the Satake family's city. As for the farther away Edo Castle and Iwatsuki Castle in Musashi Province, it depends on the situation.
In comparison, Kira Yoshitsune was more reliable. It only took seven years to capture the territory of Noda. This move south to Kanto was obviously a long-planned military operation. This can be seen from the panicked behavior of Hojo Ujimasa.
It's a subtle thing. At least the intimidating power of this town government official is far greater than that of Yoshiaki Satake who worked hard to unify Hitachi Kingdom.
The two respectfully expressed their willingness to obey the laws of the shogunate and swore to Hachiman Daibodhisattva to be loyal to the Ashikaga family from generation to generation. Kira Yoshitoki was very satisfied with the attitude of Ota Yasushi and Ota Shimasa, their uncle and nephew. They had good understanding and correct attitude.
Not to mention that his talents and usefulness are not small, so being a helper is definitely a good deal with a profit and no loss.
…
The twelfth lunar month was coming to an end, and after more than half a month of rest, Kira Yoshitsune said hello to his wife Torahime and ran to Naoetsu to find Claudia. This was not because he was lustful and neglected his job, but because he was
Claudia told him the date of her menstrual period and estimated that these days would be the best days to have a baby, so he rushed over.
After another hour of lingering love, the little foreign girl was so tossed that she lay on top of him as if she was falling apart. In fact, Kira Yoshiki only made a gesture of holding on to the headlights from beginning to end, and the rest was entirely up to Claudia.
To complete it, the little foreign girl was so addicted to it that she had to play the role of a female knight every time. After more than a month of practice, her riding skills became more and more perfect, so that Yoshitoki Kira, a master of riding skills, could only lament that he was better than his master.
And better than blue.
He knew that this long battle was far from over. After resting for a while, the female knight would continue to fight on the battlefield. He quickly took this opportunity to call the maid Sarah to prepare to eat and drink to replenish the consumed water and physical strength. This maid Sarah was courageous.
It was also big enough, and there were a few times when they bumped into each other and they didn't even leave when they were doing good things. Instead, they stared at Claudia practicing her riding skills with wide eyes, and occasionally made some weird moaning sounds, which frightened Kiragi and he hurried away.
She chased him away.
But next time Sarah seemed to knock on the door on time and come to watch the game again. Every time she found an excuse, such as bringing hot water, cakes, tea, etc. No matter how hard she rushed, she couldn't get away, Claudia.
He even joked that he might as well just take Sarah in, but how could Kira Yoshi have the intention to attack her? After all, not every foreign girl has Claudia's skin as smooth and delicate as milk.
Not to mention that Sarah's figure is not his type because she is on the fat side. Although she looks pretty good and she must be a beauty after losing weight, her freckle-faced European female facial features are troublesome, and she also has thick hands.
His pores and long hair made Kira Yoshi shudder when he saw them. Is it really okay that they are almost as hairy as a man like him?
Later, Kira Yoshi became tired of it, and simply suggested that he was very optimistic about Francis Drake, so why not ask the maid Sarah to try to match him, quietly muttering to himself: "Francis! Don't mind if I cheat you behind your back."
Well, I have no choice but to give you a little chubby girl. Captain John already has a wife. I can only hope that you can help this little chubby girl lose weight successfully in the days to come, so I feel a little better!"
After calling a few more times, I heard a knock on the door. Just when Kira Yoshi was about to complain about Sarah being so slow today, he heard a "clang" followed by the "ping ping ping ping" of dishes falling to the floor. He turned around and saw a strange man.
The little girl stared blankly at the two people stacked on top of each other on the bed, looking panicked and not knowing what to do.
"Yes... I'm sorry. I just... Sarah went on a date with France. Sarah asked me to be her for the day. I don't know what you are doing. I'm sorry! I'll prepare another one."
The girl's face was as red as a boiling kettle. She hurriedly knelt down to pick up the scattered food and dishes, and then hurriedly exited, almost tripping herself before leaving.
Kira Yoshi suddenly thought of it, but was suppressed by Claudia who was riding on him. His spear still maintained a certain strength and stubbornly held on to the mysterious territory in the female knight's body. He was suppressed and did not dare to struggle randomly, staring at
Claudia, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, said: "...who is this girl? I seem to have seen her a few times. Didn't you say that European rules say that women are not allowed on ships? Why are there so many women?"
"Rules are dead, people say it. I can dress up as a man, why can't they? Besides, how can I be the governor if I don't get on the ship?" Claudia sat up again from the position of leaning on the man.
, took the man's hands and placed them on the two plump soft flesh on his chest, gently rubbing them like a knight walking forward while riding a horse.
"I said Claudia can't let me rest! After you squeeze me dry, you won't have the chance to enjoy it again."
Claudia stopped and said shyly: "Who wants to enjoy this stinky thing like you? I just want a child... Well! I just want a child!"
Seeing that she finally stopped, he reminded helplessly: "You haven't said who this little girl is yet?"
"Her! Frances's sister is called Christine. She is a sixteen-year-old girl who has just started to fall in love. Do you want to try it? We can take care of you alone." Claudia licked her lips and winked at him.
, that expression is really like a fairy, as enchanting as possible.
Kira Yoshishi ignored her with a dark face, and said to himself: "If I listen to you, I will be completely squeezed out. You will be happy, but when I go back, the ladies in my house will not be happy."
Claudia is only eighteen years old this year, but she looks so much better than the stupid Christina. If Claudia is a crazy queen with endless attributes, then
Listiny is pure, cute and a bit stupid by nature. Judging from their appearance, the two of them are equally matched. One is coquettish and strong while the other is youthful and cute. I can’t tell which one is better. In terms of figure, Claudia is definitely the best.
Christine, you look so appetizing.
But with his current ability, there is really no way to provoke another southern barbarian girl. Not to mention that his body is exhausted from being tortured by Claudia. It also makes him worry that Francis Drake knows about this, and then learns that Sarah is with
Could his reason be that he became the avenger Date Terubong?
After a while, Christine walked in quickly with a pile of food and drink and her head lowered. She put down her plate and hurried out as if she had been stung by a bee. She was stopped by Claudia before she took a few steps.
: "Christine, don't leave in a hurry. Do you know why Sarah wants you to be on duty for her for a day?"
Kristine Drake stood there blankly, muttering: "No... I don't know."
"Sarah went on a date with your brother. The place was in a cabin on a certain ship. They were doing what I was doing with Joseph. Do you know what they were doing?" Claudia picked up a piece of cake and stuffed it into Kira.
In Yishi's mouth, he rubbed it while smiling coquettishly: "This is the most wonderful thing between men and women. Do you want to see how it is done? Sarah saw it once and never wanted to go back!"
"..." Christine Drake was a little at a loss. The aristocracy in England was as rotten as the aristocrats of other countries on the continent. Even an innocent girl like Christine knew what they were doing. She never
She never thought that the noble Duchess would invite him to watch the love between men and women in front of her lover.
At this time, she is leaving or not. If she leaves without listening to this invitation, she will definitely offend the duchess and affect the fate of her and her brother in the fleet. Her father spent a lot of thought to get it right.
The brother and sister are sent to the ship. Francis Drake is trained by John Hawkins as a future captain, while Christine hopes to become a lady-in-waiting to the Duchess of York, and with this status, she can join the aristocratic circle of England.
Both Sarah and Christine are well-educated gentry and aristocratic class. What they lack is just a stepping stone to enter the upper class. Being a maid of a powerful family is far more dangerous than being a maid of a duchess. The powerful
There are too many dirty things in wealthy families.
Young aristocratic men aged twelve or thirteen would forcibly have sex with maids, which led to many extremely dirty and ugly stories. For example, Henry VIII killed his wife simply because he saw that he could not give birth to a boy. There were also many cases where he had no power or power.
It is not surprising that the maids are given away or killed at any time as the playthings of the nobles. They may be even more miserable than the concubines of the Ming Empire.
Kristine knew that she could not offend Claudia, so she could only stand there with her head down and her head down. Claudia waved to her and said, "What can you see if you stand so far away and lower your head?"
! Come closer and feed my dear Darling and I, we are all starving after a hard morning!"
Kristine walked over tremblingly, shyly picked up a piece of chocolate from Venice and handed it to Kira Yoshiki's mouth, but Claudia leaned over and kissed the man's mouth, their tongues entangled
Sharing a piece of chocolate together, perhaps this action was so shocking that Kristine was completely frightened. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
