The day after Yu Qiupei came back, Imagawa Yoshimoto announced in his office that Imagawa Kaede was going to marry Yu Qiupei. This also marked that Yu Qiupei would become a member of the Imagawa family like Sena Toshiro and the others.
As soon as the news came out, the Imagawa family was in an uproar. The Imagawa family is a well-known Minamoto family, and marriages are also about well-matched families. The identity of Yu Qiupei, a foreigner, is relatively subtle, but he can actually become the son-in-law of Imagawa Yoshimoto. People can't help but wonder.
Caused heated discussion.
The Imagawa family has not had much war in the past two years, so there are not many war heroes. Only Yu Qiuping has stood out in the continuous wars and attracted everyone's attention. Therefore, Yu Qiuping is also very famous among the people. Especially his Tokiwa
When he was preparing to go on an expedition and passed through the villages and towns in his territory, his strict discipline earned him a good reputation as "There is no crime in autumn".
Of course, Yu Qiuping's interesting stories that storytellers can use freely are what really make him known. For example, the fabricated overlord record of breaking 6000 with 200, such as the story of sending food to the enemy, etc. Of course,
The most popular story among the people is the story of Umae Qiupei and Princess Imagawa - this started to spread in Suruga after the engagement was announced - and Uma Qiupei suspected that it was the boy Omaezaki Nakahide who did it.
Because on October 7, as soon as Ame Qiupei returned to the territory, Omaezaki Nakahide and others gathered around to congratulate them after getting the gossip from Asahina Yasuhiro. After congratulations, that was all, Omaezaki Nakahide continued to ask questions.
Yu Qiuping has been gossiping for a long time, such as the time of dating, any interesting things, etc. Yu Qiuping was in a good mood, so he just told everyone - now everyone in Suruga knows.
The more common version is that Imagawa Yoshimoto valued Yu Qiupei's unparalleled excellence and thought that he would betroth his daughter to him - this is the standard virtuous king and good general version. The more realistic version is that Yu Qiupei and Imagawa Kaede had met a long time ago and fell in love.
After a lifetime, Yu Qiupei gained fame and returned with beautiful women - this is the version of a poor scholar and a woman from a noble family. The more exciting version is that Yu Qiupei was originally a servant of the Asahina family, but after drinking and having sex, he pushed down the princess and used her as a princess.
Using his reputation as a threat, the princess recommended him to Imagawa Yoshimoto and took the opportunity to ascend to the throne - this is the version of a bitter princess and a sinister villain. As for Omaezaki Nakahide's version, Yu Qiuping met Imagawa who happened to go to sea in the Ming Dynasty.
Feng, fell in love at first sight, traveled all over the world in search of a beautiful woman, and finally found her in Suruga - Yu Qiuping wanted to kill him.
The wedding date was set on November 11th - an auspicious day on the lunar calendar - although Yu Qiuping didn't understand why Singles' Day was so auspicious. Before that, there were several tedious etiquettes - Yu Qiuping threw them all away
He gave it to Naoe Tadahira and asked him to prepare it for the groom's family. Because Yu Qiuping was too busy to leave, he didn't even have time to go to Junfu to secretly visit Imagawa Kaede, who was waiting to get married, and his face was full of happiness.
Imagawa Yoshimoto asked Ua Qiupei to expand the army to more than 600 soldiers. According to Sena Ujitoshi, Imagawa Yoshimoto planned to adopt Ua Qiupei as his son-in-law and adopted son, and granted him many territories and let him take charge of the Mikawa area.
The lord of a certain city - this requires a certain amount of troops. Yu Qiuping plans to expand the army to 600 soldiers, of which 400 infantry and 100 archers are trained according to standardized military training. As for the other 100 people, Yu Qiuping plans to try
Let’s take a look at the most common leading militia in this era - that is, soldiers who are not off work. They train and go out during the slack season and farm during the busy season. As for the auxiliary soldiers and civilians needed during the expedition, they can be recruited during the slack season.
When recruiting soldiers, Yu Qiuping introduced a physical examination system for recruiting soldiers. Only strong men who meet a certain height, weight, strength and intelligence standards can join the standing army. Awareness of legal rules and Chinese education are still an indispensable part after training. The training is left to
I met Amano Keitoku and the instructors sent by the Asahina family.
Yu Qiuping also expanded his cavalry team, increasing the number from 20 to 30 people. In fact, the expansion of the cavalry team was not necessary. Yu Qiuping actually did this to recruit Kobata Jiesheng back to the army. Last time
He was expelled because of Yu Qiuping's persistence in the law and his bravery for justice. Yu Qiuping has always felt guilty about him.
However, since Yu Qiupei's high-intensity training required feeding the ashigaru, and Yu Qiupei's production of armor and weapons also required a lot of resources, he applied for assistance from Imagawa Yoshimoto.
In addition to military training, the results of the autumn harvest also need to be inspected by Yu Qiupei. This is the first year that the personal income tax system has been adopted, and a series of exposed problems are waiting for Yu Qiupei to deal with. However, under Sena Ujiyoshi's schedule, all autumn harvests have been completed.
It was carried out in an orderly manner, and the people were generally very satisfied with this new policy. Families that suffered a bad harvest did not have to suffer so much, and several villages that had a bumper harvest paid more taxes.
And since Yu Qiuping will soon go to another place to become the city lord, the matter of building the city will be abandoned. After Sena Shitoshi learned that there was no need to spend money (even if it was not his own money), he was as excited as anything.
Of course, although the above are very busy, they are not the most troublesome things for Yu Qiuping. Yu Qiuping, who is supposed to be preparing for his own marriage, has been busy with one thing during this month - serving as a witness for his subordinates.
He had previously held a meeting with his subordinates to get them concerned about his marriage. As soon as he came back from Omi, it turned out that 134 of his old subordinates who were slaves, including General Jigao Ashigaru, were getting married! All of them!
For poor families, there is not much emphasis on betrothal gifts. Those who marry the daughters of small wealthy families are not required to prepare expensive betrothal gifts - the small wealthy families are interested in the possibility that these people will rise with the rising star of Yu Qiuping.
This is an opportunity for a new star to flourish. Therefore, everyone's marriage has been finalized a long time ago, and they are waiting for Yu Qiuping to come back as a witness. Simply, Naoe Zhongping's wedding date is not in the near future, otherwise Yu Qiuping will not even have anyone to prepare for his own marriage.
So, Yu Qiuping once again started the linear planning method, arranging wedding dates for the ashigaru people in different villages and locations, and he followed the route to be the witness. He said almost the same congratulatory speech, and his voice almost became hoarse. He had to be the witness every day.
There were four or five witnesses. As soon as the wedding was over, Yu Qiuping’s groom’s men would rush to carry the bride into the bridal chamber, whether day or night. How long must they have been holding this in? And at this time, those men
The subordinates who came over to help celebrate would swarm up and offer all kinds of "obscene words" to bless their brothers. Then they would stand around the new house one by one, lie on the floor, and put their ears almost into the crack of the door.
Listen to what's going on in the house.
"It's not a good idea for you to be like this!" Yu Qiuping looked at the excitement of his subordinates, "I know not to be so angry!"
"What! Listening to the wall is a way for brothers to express their affection!" Nobuyuki Anesama shouted excitedly, pushing his ears into the crack of the door, and responded to Yu Qiuping without looking back. These days, it is
He was the most enthusiastic pervert - he followed Yu Qiuping's footsteps and listened to all the songs without stopping. He even ranked the list of brothers who lasted longer and who among the brides had more taste.
"When I get married, just don't show your affection to me." Yu Qiuping said with lingering fear.
However, the dozens of subordinates who were originally focused on the movement in the room suddenly turned their heads, as if they had heard the order to "look to the right", and looked at Yu Qiuping with a wicked smile. They all knew,
Although this adult is extremely strict in training, he is usually approachable and has no airs.
Yu Qiuping's heart skipped a beat.
"My lord, we are from the Ming Dynasty... doesn't it mean that people in the country are more like that?" Gomaezaki Nakahide chuckled, and everyone immediately burst into laughter.
"And your bride is a princess! We only get the chance to hear what a princess feels like once in our lifetime!" Nobuyuki Anayama's eyes widened with excitement, "I'm just waiting for you to get married!"
"Get out! Get out of here!" Yu Qiuping was very angry at this group of living treasures.
Finally, things in the collar came to an end, and the time came to November 11, the wedding date of Yu Qiupei and Imagawa Kaede. Japanese wedding auspicious clothes are different from those in Ming Dynasty. Yu Qiupei wore a black kimono with the red leaves family crest on it.
, Imagawa Kaede wore a pure white kimono. The wedding was held in the shrine. At Imagawa Kaede's strong request, she did not apply thick powder on her face, but applied a thin layer of rouge.
When she mentioned this matter to Yu Qiuping a few days ago, she smiled happily and said: "The wedding is the most beautiful time in a woman's life. I don't want to apply those things. I want to show the most beautiful side to Ping."
She did it. Her beauty makes people wonder whether it is a thing in the world. The pure white silk kimono can't hide the proud figure and snow-like skin. The long black and smooth satin-like hair is tied into a bun.
The exquisite hair style reveals a graceful and luxurious elegance. The peach blossom-like blush on the face may be due to rouge or shyness. The smoke-like eyes seem to have the charm to enchant all living beings.
Her stunning beauty that captivated the whole country made the world eclipse her. In front of her beauty, whether it was the groom Kanyu Akihei, Imagawa Yoshimoto who personally presided over the wedding, or almost all the important ministers and elders of the Imagawa family who were present, they seemed as if they were
She was an insignificant supporting role. The white snow that day seemed to be a blessing that God had put on her. In Yu Qiuping's eyes, only that holy and beautiful girl like an angel remained.
I was at a loss for words for a moment and didn't know how to describe the beautiful scenery in front of me.
Yu Qiuping looked at the beauty in front of him, and in his mind, only the sentence from Chen Siwang's "Ode to the Goddess of Luo" remained -
It seems like the moon is covered by light clouds, and flutters like the snow covered by the flowing wind.
By the time Yu Qiuping came to his senses, he and Imagawa Kaede had returned to a newly built house in the territory.
The door of the bridal chamber was closed, and Imagawa Yoshimoto's voice came from outside.
"You guys, how dare you listen to my daughter's bridal chamber?" It was obvious that his beloved daughter had found a good family, and Imagawa Yoshimoto was also very happy today. After taking off his makeup, he even drank with the juniors of low status.
"The hall is so spacious! We are here to support our Lord!" Yu Qiuping immediately recognized Xue Shan's faithful voice.
"It's time to change your words and call him Your Highness." Jun Sena said with a smile, "Not long after, he will also be the lord of the city."
"Then we should support you even more!" Nakahide Omaezaki, this boy, has no stage fright even in front of the family governor, "otherwise how can we be worthy of His Highness Yuqiu's kindness!"
"Okay, okay, Sena, take them all out!" Imagawa Yoshimoto said impatiently, and Yu Qiuping could imagine the way he waved. There was a burst of laughter outside the door, and after a while, it returned to silence.
Yu Qiuping chuckled lightly and looked at Imagawa Kaede. The normally generous girl now looked like a shy girl, sitting uneasily on the edge of the bed.
Yu Qiuping quietly walked to her and sat down. She raised her face. Looking into those eyes for a moment, Yu Qiuping was defeated, as if his heart was melted by the beauty. He gently embraced her.
He hugged her, kissed her neck, and listened to her charming breathing.
"I feel very sorry for being able to marry Feng'er for dozens of reincarnations in my past and future lives." Yu Qiuping chuckled.
"What do you mean?" Imagawa Kaede's voice was as sweet and charming as a silver bell.
"Because I have used up all the luck that I have saved for dozens of generations in my previous life, and I have also overdrawn the luck of dozens of generations in the future." Yu Qiuping turned his head and kissed Imagawa Kaede's red lips, asking for the fragrance in her mouth.
After a long time, Imagawa Feng gasped and broke away, leaned in Yu Qiuping's arms, and said sweetly: "You deceiving liar."
"There is no deception." Yu Qiuping took Imagawa Feng's bare hand and pressed it on her left chest, letting her feel her strong heartbeat.
"Thank you Feng'er for appearing in my life. You are a gift given to me by fate." Yu Qiuping's eyes softened and he said solemnly, "I will care for you, love you, accompany you, and be with you all my life.
Each other’s red leaves. We will be together forever in this life and the next.”
"Yeah." Imagawa Kaede nodded with tears in her eyes.
"From now on, I will never hide anything from you again." Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment and said, "I, Yu Qiuping, will do what I say."
"I believe in Ping." Imagawa Feng hugged Yu Qiuping tightly.
"Yeah." Yu Qiuping took a deep breath and made a lot of determination.
"I have a secret that I am destined not to share with others in this life."
