Yoshigami looked at Uesugi Teruhora, and she explained with a smile.
"When I was withdrawing troops from Beishin, I met this father and daughter on the way. I just asked Lord Shiba Kenshin to take his child and give him a nickname.
I thought it was interesting, so I brought it back to you for a look."
Yiyin nodded.
The army was crossing the border. It was an entity more terrifying than the evil party, and pedestrians along the way were unable to get out of their way. If Uesugi Teruhora could meet this father and daughter, they must have taken the initiative to ask for permission to see them.
If he were an ordinary civilian, he would have been hacked to death by Ji warriors for being so rude. Even low-level warriors would not be allowed to block the way forward for the protection of a country.
The Wu family is strict in dealing with things, but Uesugi Teruhu is not angry, but instead brings it to him. This family must have some origins.
Yiyin asked.
"Which family are you from? You just left the temple and returned to secular life? How can a man wear samurai clothes?"
Yiyin didn't ask about the child, but asked about his family background first. His status was becoming more and more noble, and not just any cat or dog could be by his side.
Ii Naotora bowed.
"My family is far away from the country, and the Yi family is in troubled times. The family fortune is withered, and the heirs are in trouble.
I was entrusted by my retainers to return to the secular world and assume the position of family governor as a son. This is my adopted daughter, Husong, the only remaining legitimate daughter of the Ii family."
Yoshiyin squinted his eyes and thought, the Yuanjiang Kunjing Yi family turned out to be descendants of a famous family.
If you think about it more carefully, when the family is in trouble, the man takes on the heavy burden, huh??
He looked at Terutora Uesugi and saw her looking back at him with a half-smile, and he suddenly understood.
Teruhora Uesugi is not a good man, so she would meddle in such nosy matters just because she saw that this person suffered a similar fate to Yoshigami. So, she went to all the trouble to bring him back to please her sweetheart.
Yiyin couldn't help but laugh. He saw traces of deliberateness in the actions of the Jingyi family.
The men of the Wu family were humble and noble in blood, but in the eyes of Ji warriors, they were just tools for reproducing heirs.
If Ii Naotora wants to be the real governor of the family, it will never be possible unless he is as powerful as Tomoe Gozen.
Looking at his thin appearance, Yiyin didn't look like he could fight, so he must be a puppet.
The retainers wanted to set up a puppet, but instead of setting up the little girl Torasatsu, who was the direct heir, they chose to drag Ii Naotora, a man from the previous generation, to block the gun.
To support Husong in a roundabout way by adopting a daughter, there must be a big problem in the family.
Looking back at the two people traveling thousands of miles north to look for themselves, the Governor of the Sibo family. It seems that they want to use their similar experiences to arouse their own sympathy and help this Husong grow up smoothly.
The Ii family comes from the Fujiwara Kita family, and their family background is not bad. When the third generation of Ashikaga Shogun Yoshimitsu massacred the imperial court, the only remaining courtiers' legacy was the Fujiwara family.
The Fujiwara family has many branches and has been at the center of power in Japan for thousands of years. A large number of local samurai bloodlines originated from the Fujiwara family.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is the pillar of the samurai family. It is impossible for her to uproot the Fujiwara family, which is closely related to the samurai family. She can only choose to be tolerant.
In today's world of samurai, the descendants of the Minamoto, Taira, and Fujiwara families are the most noble.
The Ii family has been living in Ii Valley, Toe Country for a long time. As early as the time of the first shogun Minamoto Yoritomo, her family was a famous family and had high prestige in Toe Country.
I didn't expect that a famous family would end up asking for help from a man thousands of miles away. It's really sad.
Toe Country and Echigo Country are separated by Shinano Country, which seems to be only one country apart, but in fact the road is long and difficult.
The mountains in the north of Enjiang connect to Shinano and the Minanshin area. The army rarely takes this mountain road when setting off. Only a few mountain people choose to go in and out here to make a living.
Ii Naotora is a weak man in this world, traveling around the mountains with a little lolita. During the journey, there were various dangers such as getting lost, evil gangs, etc., which made him suffer all the way.
Yoshigan's eyes unconsciously turned to be somewhat respectful. No wonder Uesugi Terutora brought him back. This male house governor is very tough and deserves a little respect.
He said softly.
"It's been a hard journey."
Of course Ii Naotora suffered a lot along the way, but he was even more afraid that Shiba Yiyin would refuse to accept the tiger pine.
Even if the hard work on the road was in vain, the only bloodline of the Ii family must not be cut off.
If you go back in disgrace like this, who knows, one day you will be killed by gangsters and your family fortune will be wiped out.
He was nervous and scared, but now that Yiyin comforted him, he couldn't help but his eyes turned red and he cried loudly.
This move was considered disrespectful, but Yoshigan was considerate and Uesugi Teruhu would not be troublesome.
Yiyin thought about changing the topic, looked at the child, and said with a smile.
"Little girl, your name is Husong?"
Husong blinked his big eyes, looked at Yiyin, pulled Ii Naotora's sleeves and said.
"Father, why are you crying? This big brother is so beautiful!"
Ii Naotora's body was shaken, and he quickly covered her mouth without wiping his tears, fearing that her nonsense would offend the nobles.
He bowed and said fearfully.
"Be honest and forgive me. Children are ignorant, so please don't take it to heart."
Yoshigage glanced at Terutora Uesugi and saw that she couldn't help laughing. When she saw Yoshigage's helpless glance, she couldn't help laughing.
Yiyin touched his nose and laughed at himself. Alas, he is so handsome that even children like to look at him. What a sin.
His eyes looked at Loli softer, this child is so cute.
Seeing that the two highnesses were not angry, Ii Naotora breathed a sigh of relief, and with Yoshigan's comfort, he explained the Ii family's predicament.
The name Enjiang Country comes from the distant sea, and refers to the lagoon in the west of Enjiang Kingdom, Lake Hamana.
To the west of Lake Hamana is Mikawa Country, to the east is Oigawa and Suruga Country, and to the north is the mountain range connecting Tono Country.
Domestic Lake Hamana has a developed fishery, and the Tenryu River in the central part crosses the north and south. The plains on both sides are fertile, but they are often flooded.
The Ii family is a famous local family, occupying the Ii Valley in the middle leading to the mountains, and Hikima Castle on the plain east of Lake Hamana.
The Yuanjiang Kingdom's stone is 260,000 stones high, and the central part is almost all her family's territory. The stone is more than 100,000 stones high, and it is extremely powerful.
When the Imagawa family conquered the Toe Country, the Iikawa family fought with them and were later defeated and surrendered. After the war, the Imagawa family regarded her family as a threat and used various means to weaken the Iikawa family.
There were also rebels within the Ii Yi retainers, and due to internal and external troubles, the family business declined rapidly. Today, only the territory of more than 10,000 stones is left near Ii Valley Castle.
The successive family governors were killed in the battle, and almost all the direct descendants of the family died, leaving only a single seedling of Husong that had not yet grown up.
In order to prevent the family business from collapsing and to protect the young Torasatsu, Naoto Ii, who had already become a monk, gritted his teeth and returned to secular life and returned home, serving as the family governor and adopting Torosatsu.
But he was just a male prostitute and had no power to protect his children. He had no choice but to listen to the advice of his loyal ministers and went to Echigo to plead with Yoshigan Shiba, who was also the male governor.
I hope that out of compassion, he can adopt Husong as his nickname and protect her from growing up smoothly.
After Ii Naotora finished speaking, he fell to the ground and kowtowed.
Yiyin frowned and said nothing. This matter was of no benefit at all. He should not have waded into this muddy water.
