At the moment when Kawada Nagauchi cried out in grief and indignation for Uesugi Kenshin, Yoshigine suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart. The matter was more troublesome than he imagined.
Yoshigan originally thought that Uesugi's retainers would find it difficult to understand Uesugi Kenshin's temper tantrums and would not support him.
After the Shiba-Uesugi family formed the Echigo duopoly, the Uesugi retainers gained a lot of benefits from Yoshigan.
According to Yoshigoshi's idea, he could completely use the Uesugi retainers group to put pressure on Uesugi Kenshin from the side, so as to reduce the pressure on himself when facing Uesugi Kenshin.
But the reality is completely different from what Yiyin imagined.
Perhaps, the Uesugi Retainers Group once considered persuading Uesugi Kenshin. However, faced with the aggressive provocation from challengers such as Takeda Hojo, the Uesugi Retainers Group was obviously greatly stimulated.
Even fringe forces like the Omi faction headed by Kawada Nagauchi began to feel that Uesugi Kenshin's overreaction was excusable.
External pressure created an internal atmosphere of common hatred and hatred, pushing the Uesugi retainers toward Uesugi Kenshin, and the Uesugi family united unprecedentedly around Uesugi Kenshin, the family governor.
Yiyin did not expect this.
Originally, he wanted to test Kawada Nagauchi to see if he could influence the position of the Uesugi retainers.
Now it seems that we are in big trouble.
Not to mention Kawada Nagauchi, even Naoe Keetsuna, the big boss of the Uesugi family who is pro-Shiba and co-runs Naoetsu with the Shiba family, she would not dare to jump out to help Yoshigan at this time.
Takeda Shingen, Hojo Ushimasa, and Tokugawa Ieyasu jumped out one by one to poke the Uesugi family's lungs, trying to pull Uesugi Kenshin from his position as the number two figure in Kanto.
In the face of the core interests of the Uesugi family, the Uesugi retainers must unite around Uesugi Kenshin and fight resolutely against the external bad guys to the end.
At this time, whoever dared to speak softly and persuade the family governor to compromise would be the sinner of the Uesugi family, and his head would be chopped off by the subordinate Hime Samurai who shouted Tenchu, and everyone clapped and applauded.
Kawada Nagachi's attitude was that of the Uesugi retainers, who supported Uesugi Kenshin.
The Uesugi retainers are not fighting against Shiba, they are just fighting against the bad elements in the Kanto Palace with ulterior motives.
If Yoshigami wants to go astray, he will be very sorry for Uesugi Kenshin's deep love for him, and will also let Uesugi's retainers disappoint him.
Can Yiyin be such a foolish king? Of course he can't! He is a saint of benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust!
Kawada Nagachi said all he said softly, but his attitude was so subtle that the Bank of Japan did not know how to react due to the run on the bank.
Uesugi Kenshin did not respect the saint, was unruly and rude, and was originally the one who made the mistake. Yoshigan was very confident that he would bring the Uesugi retainers over to help him put pressure on Uesugi Kenshin.
But now, as Takeda Hojo and others continue to make small moves, Yoshigan's strategy has been completely disrupted.
This gave Yoshigami a huge headache. Without the support of Uesugi's retainers, he could only face Uesugi Kenshin alone and persuade this tough and arrogant woman.
Although, Yoshigan had used a man's tears, weakness, and the smell of tea to fool Uesugi Kenshin several times.
But today is different from the past. Uesugi Kenshin is holding the child in his hands. For the future of her daughter, Yoshihiro does not think Uesugi Kenshin will compromise easily.
Could it be that... we are really going to make a scene and hurt the relationship between the Shiba Uesugi family?
At this moment, Yiyin suddenly had a flash of enlightenment.
Bastards like Takeda Hojo, they are deliberately causing trouble behind their backs to hurt Yoshigan and Uesugi Kenshin's feelings. It would be even better if they really want to break up!
These women are really... each one more sinister than the last!
———
Takeda Hojo and others were doing things behind the scenes, hoping that Uesugi Kenshin's violent temper would directly overturn the table of Echigo's duopoly.
But they didn't know that Uesugi Kenshin, who was a strong mother as a mother, might become calmer and wiser than them at this moment.
When it comes to feelings and dedication, they forcibly violated Takeda Shingen and the late Hojo Ushimasa. How can they compare with Uesugi Kenshin?
Kenshin Uesugi stayed by his side when Yoshiyin was in his decline, and devoted everything he had to him.
With Yoshigami's doughy temperament, how can he display the cold-blooded political skills of an emperor and a sage? Let's cry, make trouble, and hang ourselves together. Who can be more adorable than Uesugi Kenshin?
However, at this moment, both Yoshigan and Takeda Hojo underestimated Uesugi Kenshin, thinking that she was still the tough and face-conscious Kanto leader.
The banquet was hot at first and then cold. Kawada Changqin pretended to be respectful and secretly poured cold water on it, and Yoshiyin lost the interest in continuing the banquet.
After the concubines respectfully resigned, Yiyin returned to the courtyard where he was stationed. He stared at the flames of the stone lanterns in the garden in a daze, regretting his decision to bypass the Tokaido Road.
Whether it's Tokugawa Takeda Hojo or Uesugi, these Hime Samurai lords each have their own good methods, and none of them are within Yoshigami's expectation.
By the time Yiyin felt something was wrong, he was already deep in the muddy waters of Kanto, and it was already extremely difficult to maintain his neutrality and impartiality.
When he felt the approaching steps from behind, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Ushigo, am I wrong?"
But behind him, Sanada Nobushige's careless voice came.
"How could a saint be wrong? It must be that the people below are ignorant and unable to sympathize with your kind thoughts."
Yoshigan turned around and saw Sanada Nobunshige with a flattering look on his face, and snorted.
"Why are you following me?"
Sanada Nobushige pushed the little girl next to him and said.
"Isn't it true that I have something to ask a saint for?"
Yoshigan looked at the little girl who was pushed out by Sanada Nobushige. She had obviously dressed up deliberately to meet the saint.
She has an oval face, twin ponytails, long legs, and a delicate face with a hint of innocence.
"who is she?"
"This is my adopted daughter."
"Adopted daughter? When did you adopt a daughter?"
"Hey, in that battle with Jiyue, she crawled out from the pile of dead people and asked me with a bunch of ears whether the Sibo system counted.
Such an awesome girl, the more I looked at her, the more I liked her, so I kept her by my side as an adopted daughter."
Yiyin looked at the little girl. This little girl was only eleven or twelve years old. She had big eyes that were not afraid of people and looked at Yiyin curiously.
"Very interesting kid, what's your name?"
"Rin, I am Sanada Rin."
Yi Gin touched her head, looked at Nobushige Sanada, and couldn't help but want to laugh.
Sanada Nobushige herself was only in her early twenties, and she acted like a child all day long. She and this child were only eight or nine years apart, but they were already an adoptive mother and daughter. In fact, they were just two children, one older and one younger.
"You brought Lin to see me, why?"
"Actually, I just want to ask the saint to allow her to be your companion.
Saint, you also know that when it comes to fighting without fear of death, there are many people in the mountains who are willing to live alone. But when it comes to educating children, then...
Rin is a good child, and I don’t want her to hang out with a bunch of rough guys like us at such a young age.”
Yiyin nodded.
"You said she made a lot of contributions in Jiyue. Did she appear on the list compiled by Sibo?"
"Yes, she is an official Shiba retainer."
"That's easy. I'll grant her permission to join the Tongxin Secretariat and study with the Pu Sheng clan for a few years. I promise to give you an adopted daughter who is both talented and intelligent."
"Hahaha, thank you saint."
Sanada Nobushige pulled Sanada Rin and kowtowed to the ground, while Yoshigan stood up and received a salute from them head-on.
After this ceremony, Sanada Rin became the companion sent by the Sanada clan to the central government to take orders, with the same nature as Ozo Changan and Ina Chuji.
Yoshigan took a closer look at Sanada Nobushige and saw that she had a happy face. He didn't know who came up with the wild monkey's idea of having his adopted daughter as a chaperone.
The Wu family values the family name over bloodline simply because the family property is not the private property of the governor alone, but the public property maintained by a group of retainers.
Sanada Nobushige has shone brightly in recent years and is now the master of Nishi Ueno, but she is still unmarried and single.
Considering the stability of the family business, her situation in this regard is very worrying for the retainers.
If she suddenly passes away one day, Sanada will be left without a leader, and the status of this family business will also disappear because there will be no successor.
Adopting an adopted daughter from the same clan in the mountains at least leaves a candidate for subsequent inheritance of the family business. Even if Sanada Nobushige does not get married and has no descendants, the inheritance of the family business will not be delayed.
No matter what Nobushige Sanada thinks in his heart, at least the retainers can feel at ease. But the prerequisite is that Yoshihiro, a saint, must admit his debt.
Whether it was Sanada Nobushige's earliest Matsudai who received thousands of stones, or Azuma who was conquered later and received ten thousand stones, they were all places of knowledge and practice endorsed by saints.
The situation in Nishi Ueno was special, because Sanada Nobushige raided Minawa Castle and forcibly took away the Nagano family's territory, which also made Yoshigan a little angry.
Therefore, Sanada Nobushige's position in occupying Nishi Ueno was not strong and was not recognized by Yoshino. The Sanada people only kept Nishi Ueno in the name of assisting defense.
However, through the Battle of Shiba Oda, Sanada Nobushige's heroic achievements have been recognized by Yoshigan, and the position of the Lord of Nishi Ueno has gradually become stable.
As she and a large number of her warriors became Shiba's establishment, in fact, the territory under Sanada Nobunaga's command had become part of the Kanto Shiba Territory.
Therefore, the Sanada clan sending Sanada Rin as a companion has two meanings.
First, to show the loyalty of the Sanada people, they placed Sanada Nobunshige's only adopted daughter next to Yoshigan, and settled the family's heart.
Secondly, since Sanada Rin is a talent cultivated by her master, if Sanada Nobunaga becomes extinct in the future, it will be easy for her to gain the trust of her master and continue Sanada Nobunaga's family business.
Whether it is for Yoshiyin or the Sanada people, letting Sanada Rin come to the master's house as a companion is a good move.
The only unlucky person is actually Sanada Nobushige himself.
Because Rin Sanada is the adopted daughter of Sanada who was trained by Doshin Secretariat, this will cause the host family to trust Rin Sanada even more.
If Nobushige Sanada gets married and has a daughter in the future, her daughter's inheritance rights will likely be challenged by Rin Sanada.
Yoshigan glanced at the delighted Sanada Nobushige and wondered if she had considered this hidden danger.
She arranged Rin Sanada to join the Tongxin Secretariat, probably to create a rival for her future biological daughter's inheritance rights.
Yoshigan didn't know, in fact, Sanada Nobushige knew the consequences of doing this, and the Sanada think tank Zhuji who helped her with suggestions also knew it, but they didn't care.
Because Sanada Nobunaga's infatuated love for Yoshigan is almost a secret known to everyone in Sanada.
If Sanada Nobunaga fails to challenge the divine descendant, she will choose to die alone. Then with Sanada Rin here, the continuation of the Sanada family's family business will not be fatally threatened by the death of the heir.
On the other hand, if Sanada Nobushige can really climb up the holy bed and give birth to a divine descendant, the Sanada people will naturally be happy to see it happen. The Sanada family will further become a divine descendant, which will have great benefits.
No matter how awesome Rin Sanada is, can she threaten the inheritance rights of Yoshigan's children?
This is of course impossible, so the hidden dangers that Yoshigan is doubtful about do not exist for the Sanada people.
The Sanada people were also well prepared.
With one hand, he worked hard to help the family governor ascend to the holy bed and achieve the great cause of the Goddess family. With the other hand, he guaranteed the bottom line, at least to ensure that the continuation of the Sanada family was unimpeded.
This time, Yi Gin thought too little, and the Sanada people, who seemed to be simple mountain people, were also shrewd.
