In order to continue that hard-won little life, Yu Qiuping tried his best.
Yu Qiu Shang is not only missing a right arm, his body is also very weak. Yu Qiu Shang was always afraid that he would be infected with the disease as soon as he was born - this can be said to be fatal in this era, when there are a large number of newborns
It couldn't survive its first month, so even without good contraceptive measures, the population has remained at a low level.
Yu Qiuping did not hesitate to borrow money from friends around him and invited almost all the best doctors in Owari. He himself also tried hard to recall the newborn care knowledge he had come into contact with in the past.
He specially prepared two rooms for Yu Qiu Shang and let him live in them in turns. Because Yu Qiu Ping tried hard to control the indoor temperature at 21 to 24 degrees in the harsh winter - so he had to burn charcoal fires, or use charcoal braziers or charcoal fires.
Both the smoke and the smoke from the charcoal brazier are not good for the baby. So Yu Qiuping asked Yu Qiu Shang to take turns switching between the two houses. This house burned charcoal to heat up, and Yu Qiu Shang stayed in the other house. Waiting until
When the temperature comes up, remove the brazier, use a few buckets of boiling water to maintain the temperature and humidity, remove the charcoal fire, and bring in Yu Qiu Shang - at the same time, clean and perform the same heating operation in another room, and at the same time open the windows for ventilation.
The temperature in the room is also strictly controlled. It cannot be too dark or too bright. All work is supervised by Yu Qiuping personally. He cannot delay it even in the middle of the night. He may only be able to secretly squint for two or three hours a day.
Now Chuanfeng couldn't worry about the wet nurse outside, so he breastfed Yu Qiu Shang himself. Yu Qiuping also had requirements for Yu Qiu Shang's sleeping position. He remembered that newborns' heads are soft and cannot use hard pillows. He specially used towels and
The cotton wool helped him make a special small pillow with a slightly sunken middle and slightly raised ends. Then, he was also required to lie on his back or side when sleeping to avoid compressing the chest and lungs. After feeding, he should sleep on his side to avoid choking milk. When sleeping on his back or side,
, and must change positions frequently. At the same time, babies under one month old should not sleep for a long time. Every 2-3 hours, Yu Qiuping will wake up Yu Qiu Shang. He also tried his best to ensure a quiet environment and was responsible for cleaning.
The doctor and maids must be careful. Honda Tadakatsu and the guards were sent to the street by him, asking passers-by to be as quiet as possible.
Unlike Yu Qiu Shang, although Yu Qiu You is not particularly strong, he is in good health. Yu Qiu Ping and Imagawa Kaede do not need to worry too much. If they really have to take care of two children, Yu Qiu Ping is really too busy. Yu Qiu You was
Yu Qiuping and Imagawa Feng were left in the care of A Ling, and a wet nurse was found outside to help him breastfeed.

While Yu Qiuping was busy in the mansion, the rumor that Imagawa Kaede had given birth to twins also spread like wildfire. Amano Keitoku originally wanted to block the news, but Yu Qiuping didn't seem to have such an intention, and even asked Maeda Toshiie and Ikeda
Hengxing confirmed this and even generously admitted the fact that his eldest son was born with only a left arm. For a time, Owari, from the senior ministers of the family to the peddlers and lackeys, all began to discuss heatedly the twins of Imagawa Kaede - and Yu Qiupei.
Stubbornly refusing to abandon one of them.
There are several versions of this rumor among the people. Some people say that this is the evil spirit of Imagawa Yoshimoto, aiming to retaliate against Yu Qiuping who betrayed him, so if he punishes his daughter, the Yu Qiu family will not end well; others say
It is said that these two children were originally being chased by demons. In order to save Yu Qiuyou, Yu Qiu Shang's right hand was bitten by the demon, and the two were reincarnated into the human world. Some people even rumored that this was Amaterasu's attack on Yu Qiuping, a Ming Dynasty man.
The punishment for disrupting Japan is a divine punishment. If the Oda family cannot get rid of the scourge of Yu Qiupei, the Oda family will also be implicated.
However, in order to take care of Yu Qiu Shang, Yu Qiuping has not shown his face in public for a long time. Several of his close friends wanted to persuade him to abandon the child, but there was no chance. As Yu Qiuping's mouthpiece, Naoe Tadayei explained to everyone
The reason why Yu Qiuping refused to abandon the child - In the Ming Dynasty, twins were a symbol of happiness and would bring endless wealth to the family. Anyone who abandoned one of the twins would be punished by God - of course
Yu Qiupei made it up impromptu at the time. However, "countrymen" like Owari had never been to the Ming Dynasty - the Ming Dynasty was so big, and the customs may be different in different places, so no one could question Yu Qiupei.
Akiuhei's statement. Yu Qiupei's argument of using superstition to deal with superstition has achieved certain results. Public opinion in Owari is no longer one-sided, but tends to the fact that this time the twins may be Ming Dynasty and Japan, a fusion of blessing and curse.
However, although everyone said so, they actually had different opinions on Yu Qiuping's decision. After all, the deep-rooted idea that twins are unlucky is still difficult to abandon easily. And let a child who is born weak and without a right hand have to give up.
As the eldest son, many warriors wondered if Yu Qiuping was crazy. Why would he do such a thing? Why would he have to go to great lengths to pass on the position of family governor to his second son and cause unnecessary trouble?
In the end, turbulent public opinion poured into Oda Nobunaga, and everyone was counting on Oda Nobunaga to make a final conclusion on this matter. Sasaki Narimasa and others believed that Ame Qiupei's twins would bring a curse from the gods.
, advocated the exile of Yu Qiupei to avoid disaster. However, Mori Katsunari, Niwa Nagahide and others confirmed that they should not be so mean. Whether to keep the child or not seems to be Yu Qiupei's own choice. Maeda Toshiie and Ikeda Tsuneaki even supported Yu Qiupei.
, and even threatened to kidnap the children of anyone who said it was unlucky to have twins.
In a less important evaluation meeting, Oda Nobunaga, a new human being who had never expressed his opinion on this matter, said with a nonchalant smile when talking about this matter: "So what about twins? So what about a curse?
So what if the gods and Buddhas are angry?"
"What can you do to me?"
Thus, the limelight of the twins passed like this. Some people were just watching the excitement, waiting for the Yuqiu family to suffer retribution. Some people hoped that the bloodline and blessings of the Yuqiu Pingming people could offset the twins.
curse.

During the period when Yu Qiuping stayed at home, Naoe Tadahira took care of all social activities and participation in evaluation meetings. On the one hand, he was one of the first people to follow Yu Qiuping, and he had the deepest relationship with Yu Qiuping and was the most popular.
Yu Qiupei's trust. On the other hand, he is peaceful, reliable, and careful. If Yoshioka Katsumasa and Gomaezaki Nakahide are asked to do it for them, they may cause some trouble; if Nobuyuki Anayama is asked to do it, he will definitely do it.
Spend the whole day in the whale house; as for Amano Keitoku, although he is very reliable and trustworthy, he can definitely dig out the conspiracy against Yu Qiupei from every trivial matter; Fukushima Yasunari is indeed
A good candidate, but his mother is sick and Yu Qiuping can't bother him.
Naoe Tadayei reported the key points of the year-end evaluation meeting to Amakihei, who took some time out of his busy schedule. First, there was a new report on the situation in Kinki that the Oda family focused on: the Miyoshi family had previously helped Hatakeyama Taka who was exiled by the important minister Yasumi Naomasa.
Takamasa Hatakeyama fought back to Takaya Castle. However, Takamasa Hatakeyama, who was dissatisfied with the Miyoshi family's infringement of the Hatakeyama family's sovereignty in Hanoi, was angry and went to war against the Miyoshi family. Because of his defeat, he was exiled again. The Miyoshi family pacified Hanoi. Matsunaga was granted the power to conquer Yamato on his own.
Hisahide also defeated the Tsutsui family of Kofukuji Temple and unified Yamato.
However, the next actions of the Miyoshi family are puzzling. Miyoshi Nagakei did not move the residence to Iimoriyama Castle as in the previous history, but moved the residence to the Awa Kingdom Katsui Castle in the territory of his younger brother Miyoshi Yoshiken.
Iimori Mountain Castle and Akutagawa Mountain Castle were garrisoned by his sons Miyoshi Yoshihiro and Miyoshi Choitsu. The main force of the Miyoshi family also retreated to Settsu and Shikoku respectively, and did not strengthen the suppression of Kinki. The shogunate Ashikaga Yoshiteru,
With the help of the Rokkaku family, he is active in order to regain power.
Yu Qiuping vaguely felt that it might be because he leaked the secret in Kinki a year ago. The people in the gambling house might have good backgrounds and were probably important members of the Miyoshi family. This led to the Miyoshi family not making any changes to history.
The same move as before. However, he had no time to think about it for the time being.
Another piece of news came from Mino. According to the report from the Takigawa Ichimasu ninja, the talented Saito Yoshiryu, the governor of the Saito family in Mino country, seems to be seriously ill, and the originally planned battle against Owari has also failed.
Therefore, it was stranded. This undoubtedly excited Oda Nobunaga, who was quite afraid of his talent, and also provided him with the opportunity to conquer Mino.
Therefore, he ordered the various territories on the front lines of Owari and Mino to start preparing food and fodder for the needs of the army. Ame Qiupei's fiefdom, Yeli County, is the border between Owari and Mino countries. Therefore, Oda Nobunaga
He also urged Yu Qiuping to lead his men to take up their posts in Yeli County a year ago and begin to complete the reorganization of the territory.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to get out," Yu Qiuping glanced at the room where his son was sleeping, and shook his head in embarrassment, "I don't worry about Shang'er."
"Jianbingwei," Yu Qiuping said hesitantly, "if I gave you the task of leading my subordinates and their families to allocate territory, settle the army, reorganize defense, and arrange spring plowing... wouldn't it be very difficult for you?
?”
Naoe Tadahira was stunned when he heard this, and after a moment he shook his head, "Your Highness just gives you instructions. If there is any problem, I will definitely find a way to solve it."
"Is it really okay?" Yu Qiuping asked worriedly.
"As long as it is something His Highness has ordered, I will try my best to do it well." Naoe Tadayei nodded firmly.
"Okay, but don't be too embarrassed. Ujiyoshi can help you take care of the spring plowing, and the defense arrangements can also be left to the Ashigaru generals. If there are signs of instability in the territory, let Gonbei and
Just let Kihei take care of it. However, it’s up to you to catch the boss.”
