The first thousand and sixty-ninth chapters do not lick the dog
If Yoshihiro Shiba stays to run the Kanto Plain and takes the Kanto Princess Warriors to Luo, will he represent the interests of Kanto or Kansai? The interests of the central government or the local government? He can't represent anyone.
Those who participate in politics are most afraid of unstable positions. Being involved in any side means that no one is their own. The Wu family groups on all sides have their own demands, and Sibo Yiyin, who is standing in the middle, will be torn to pieces first.
The Uesugi retainers alone would put countless obstacles in his way. Uesugi Terutora was just one person and one promise, but behind her was the opposing will of a samurai group.
Besides, Yoshihiro doesn't dare to entrust his future to those bastards like Echigo and Qin Muchu. Hasn't he been tricked enough in the past two years?
Secondly, Uesugi Teruhu takes the innocent route.
Yiyin gave her several opportunities, but she couldn't bear to climb into Yiyin's bed. She has a strong emotional obsession with germs!
Such an extremely proud second-generation rich man proposes to Yoshigan with his future. Will Yoshigan dare to agree? He has slept with so many warrior girls, and if one of them leaks out, Uesugi Terutora will go crazy.
Loyalty is not absolute, which means absolute disloyalty. The same is true for love.
Behind Uesugi Teruhora's pure emotion of sacrificing everything is the strict requirement for Yoshigan's chastity. The chastity belt of power will tightly bind Yoshigan's little brother.
But the question is, if Yoshigami can bear not to cheat, can the warrior girls under his command who love him can bear it? The day he was discovered by Uesugi Teruhora was the day when rivers of blood flowed.
Thirdly, Yiyin himself does not want to get married.
Let’s not talk about the differences in three views between the previous life and the female world. These are just empty-headed truths. Just talk about the interests. The special effects of not committing crimes in career given by the system are really useful.
Being a fool is like being fucked. After going to bed, as long as you wipe your tears, the other person will kneel down and let you be beaten and punished, and Yiyin will deal with it.
This almost super-powerful plug-in effect has helped Yiyin overcome difficulties several times and can also stabilize the loyalty of his retainers. How could he be willing to give up?
But there is one restriction in his life, that is, he cannot have sex with a woman other than his first wife. In other words, he cannot cheat.
Now this restriction is temporarily sealed by the system because Yiyin is not married yet. But once he gets married to someone, the curse will be lifted immediately, and he will become a loyal and chaste husband from then on.
Is it possible that he won't cheat? He is willing, but others are not willing, and I can't do it! After thinking about it, the best solution is not to get married.
To sum up, no matter how sincere Uesugi Teruhora's attitude is, Yoshigami can only sigh, this is the choice of fate.
He repeated sadly.
"sorry."
The moment he said he was sorry, Yiyin's mood calmed down and he felt relieved.
All considerations were utilitarian trade-offs, but after making the choice, what emerged in his mind were those pretty faces, Takada Haruno, Takada Yukino, Akechi Mitsuhide, Maeda Benefit, etc.
Those Ji warriors who have sworn to follow him to the death are still holding on hard in recent days. They are still waiting for him to return. How can he let them down?
Yiyin's eyes turned clear and his face became resolute. He wanted to go back and be with his Ji warriors to tide over the difficulties.
As Yoshigan apologized again, a wave of pain surged into his heart. Uesugi Teruhora's eyes were sore, and he pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth to prevent tears from falling.
She cast an indignant look at Yiyin. This was the first time since the two met. Why? I have compromised to this point for you, why do you do this to me?
Terutora Uesugi spent her whole life in the military, suppressing all parties with majesty. Her perfect record made her domineering, and she has always been headstrong and extremely arrogant.
In her life, she had never bowed her head to anyone or spoken softly to anyone. Even when she begged for the post of Kanto Governor in front of the general Ashikaga Yoshiteru, it was a political transaction that was neither humble nor overbearing, and was reasonable and restrained.
Terutora Uesugi has only been accommodating to one person in her life, but her enthusiasm was splashed with cold water, which made her heart feel cold. She took a deep breath, and the crystal reflection in her eyes seemed to be dripping with despair, she said.
"Mr. Qianxin, I have obeyed your advice these past two years. You should understand what I mean."
Yiyin sighed and bowed, apologizing.
"I'm very sorry, Your Highness Uesugi, please calm down.
I have to go back, please understand my difficulty. I will try my best to make up for the losses caused to the Guandong Raiders by my return to recent times."
Terutora Uesugi laughed loudly, pinching his left breast with his right hand, and two lines of tears finally fell down.
"To make up for my loss?
Sibo Yiyin! What do you owe me here? Do you know that I hate you the most and you are like a stone!
Two years! Two whole years! Even a stone should be warmed by me! Why do you want to go back! Why!
What did I do that was not good enough? Tell me! Tell me!"
Terutora Uesugi stepped forward, held Yoshigage's shoulders with both hands, looked directly into his eyes, and begged.
"Don't go, please don't go, okay? I can give you anything.
Let's conquer the Eight Prefectures together, give me ten years... no, five years, three years, I won't keep you waiting too long.
I will go to Luo with you, we will take down the shogunate, and our descendants will become the most noble people in the world!
Please, please give me a little more time, okay? Don’t leave, okay?”
Yi Gin gritted his teeth and shook his head. Uesugi Teruhu was so excited that his shoulders were pinched so painfully. He took a breath and said.
"Let go, it hurts."
Terutora Uesugi pulled him in front of her with both hands, so that her body was close to his, face to face.
"I won't let go! You are mine!"
Her eyes were as aggressive as fire, sweeping across Yiyin's face like a burning one, making Yiyin feel like he was being burned, and he sighed.
"Your Highness Uesugi, I still have followers in nearby areas. They are fighting for me. I cannot abandon them. I must go back."
Teru Uesugi gritted his teeth and said.
"You are always so kind to a husband.
If the territory is lost, we can regain it, and if the tribesmen die, we can summon them again. As long as we gain the world, no matter where is our territory, who is not our tribe."
Yoshigine had been trying to calm Uesugi Teruatora's emotions, but after hearing these words, he finally couldn't help but break free of Uesugi Teruatora's hands and glared.
"Husband's kindness? Oh, yes, that's what I am. They are my subordinates, they fight for me, and I have the obligation to protect them!
I will never be as utilitarian as you, who can do whatever it takes to get benefits. I am a human being, not an animal!"
Terutora Uesugi was angered by his ridicule and sneered.
"In order to win, you should have no scruples. This is a war, not a child's play.
The losers will lose everything and become mere fish. If we want to be the winners and win forever, we must do it at all costs!"
Yiyin sneered.
"Yes, so you can watch those beasts in Guandong burning, killing and looting without any worries.
But have you ever thought that the people living in those villages are human beings, and they are human beings too! What crime do they have? Why should they pay for the Wu family's struggle for power?
You should go and take a look, open your eyes and take a look!
The ignorant child watched his mother being stabbed to death by livestock in the field, just to protect the family's winter rations!
The father of the child was dragged into the room by a group of beasts. He did not dare to resist because he was afraid that they would hurt his child!
The result? The man was tortured to death, the child was decapitated by the beasts, and the head was used as a ball to kick on the tree trunk at the head of the village for fun.
She is still a child! She has just come into this world and doesn’t even understand what everything in front of her means!
Tell me, what crime did she have! What crime did she have? Why should she die for your great cause in the world!
I beg you to retreat, and we will come back next year. I am willing to go to war with the Hojo family, defeat them, and use glorious military exploits to obtain this land.
But you refused. You tolerated these beasts and turned this land into hell.
Now you tell me, this is reality, this is how fighting should be, this is how the world should be!
If this is the reality of the world, let such a world be destroyed! Jackals are in power and ghosts are rampant. It makes me feel sick to seize this world where animals and beasts are together!
I want to return to my Samurai Hime, and I will never abandon them, never! I am not you, Terutora Uesugi, I have many, many people I care about, and I will not watch them die.
We are not the same kind of people, you will never understand me! We are different!"
Yiyin spoke louder and louder. Over the years, he had been through life and death and endured humiliation and hardship. No matter how many tragic things happened in front of his eyes, he could only endure it and try to adapt to the rules of the world.
In the world of the Wu family, what can he do if he doesn't go with the Wu family? Will he become a commoner who gets stabbed? He has long been numb to such things as being among beasts and turning a blind eye to the devastation of living beings.
But today, Uesugi Teruhora's contemptuous attitude toward the recent Shiba leaders finally angered Yoshigan Shiba.
He can join forces with the samurai in order to survive, but he cannot ignore the people around him. Those Ji warriors who worship him, love him, become kings and ministers with him, and even have a skin-to-skin relationship with him.
He has his own bottom line, which cannot be provoked by anyone. He cannot change this cold world, but he will work hard to protect the people around him, and he can protect each one.
This is his last insistence as a modern man who has no choice but to drift with the tide in this world of female supremacy. He firmly believes that he is right, that he has not become a beast, and that he still has a conscience.
However, Terutora Uesugi could not understand his three views and could only misinterpret them in his own way.
Teru Uesugi's face turned pale and he said coldly.
"Well said! You are the Lord of benevolence and righteousness, and I am the shameless person. You are so noble, why are you still wallowing in this mortal world? The door of the Buddhist temple is opened for people like you who are free from the secular world!
Let me open my eyes and take a look? Be sober! You should take a good look yourself! I love you and I am willing to accommodate you, but will others?
What is the Wu family? They are jackals, tigers and leopards!
If we give them benefits, they are our dogs. If we restrict them and take away their benefits, they will turn into wolves and bite us to death!
If they are not allowed to rob, what will they eat? There is a severe drought in Guandong, and the harvest in most places in the eight states of Guan is less than half of previous years, and in some places it is only 30%, or even no harvest at all!
Can your benevolence and righteousness be used as food? If you are reasonable, you can only cook porridge in the pot, not reason!
Echigo can't afford that much food! Even if I tolerate you, suppress the numerous dissatisfactions in the family, and support you to spend a lot of money to buy food, it will only be a drop in the bucket!
It is not easy to maintain the Echigo army's own rations with this small amount of food. What can I do to restrict the Kanto samurai family? We have less than 10,000 people, and they have 80,000 or 90,000!
What should we do if we don't let them rob or feed them? Are we going to fight with them under Odawara Castle? Hojo Ujiyasu can laugh out of his dreams!
You are always like this, showing inexplicable mercy again and again. If I hadn't supported you behind the scenes, your ridiculous benevolent policies would not have been implemented in Echigo!
If I hadn't used force to suppress Echigo in the past two years, would you have been able to get to where you are today peacefully? Are those people in Echigo moved by your kindness? They are afraid of me!
They are afraid of my swords and guns. They choose to take refuge in you because of fear! Not because of your so-called benevolence and righteousness!
If one day, my swords and guns are no longer so sharp that they are afraid of them, and I can no longer bribe them with benefits, they will tear me into pieces without hesitation!
You and I are called Lords, but in fact we are just poor people riding on the back of a tiger. Those people can swear allegiance to us today, but they can kill us without hesitation tomorrow!
How loyal can the Wu family be? You sincerely want to go back to Jinji, how loyal are the Ji warriors you protect?
They are wolves, not dogs! You are so naive to believe them, have you ever thought that one day, they will eat you alive with all your bones!"
Yiyin shook his head.
Terutora Uesugi didn't understand what he was sad about at all. The three views of modern people were torn to pieces in this female-dominated world, and the common sense and morality that the nine-year compulsory education gave him as a human being were all invalidated.
Yiyin's pain does not lie in the right or wrong way of doing things, but in the fact that ordinary people in peaceful times face the cruel ancient times where human life is like a piece of grass, and their psychological defenses are impacted to the point of collapse.
He couldn't explain it, and even if he explained it, Uesugi Teruhu couldn't understand it. As the saying goes, there is a five-year gap in the ideological concepts of each generation. And there is a gap of five hundred years between the two of them.
After venting, Yoshigage gradually calmed down. Venting his emotions could not solve the problem, so he had to communicate patiently. With red eyes, he looked at Uesugi Teruhora and said softly.
"I know it's not easy for you. I see everything you do to me and keep it in my heart.
Sister Uesugi, let’s retreat. I’m begging you, let’s retreat. I want to go back to Japan, I miss home.”
Hearing the words Uesugi sister, Uesugi Teruhu's body trembled, he closed his eyes and sighed.
"Mr. Qianxin, you are also tired. Please rest early."
After saying that, she turned around and opened her eyes, resolutely leaving the shogunate where the discussion was taking place. Yoshigan stared at her back in a daze.
Teruhora Uesugi refused to accept hard or soft advice this time and was determined not to compromise. Yoshigan Shiba didn't know what to do for a while.
If the licking dog stops licking, this will cause trouble.
Yiyin's face was gloomy and he was thinking about something, and he didn't know how much time had passed. Bai Di San Taifu came in from the outside quietly, but did not dare to disturb his thoughts. After bowing, he respectfully waited for orders.
