Winter is approaching, and it is not only the weather that is getting colder, but also people's hearts. The weather is cold, but it will still warm up when spring comes next year. People's hearts are cold, will it get warm again?
At least Nobuyuki Anayama knows, because he has repeated this process countless times.
"Toromatsu, if you've finished eating, go out and practice the kendo I taught you yesterday." Ii Naotora put his chopsticks on the bowl and said in a deep voice to Ii Hiramatsu. The latter immediately bowed obediently.
, stood up and left the room.
However, before closing the door, he glanced at Ii Hiramatsu and Nobuyuki Ayama who were sitting at the table with some doubts. After all, he was no longer the innocent kid he was back then, and he gradually realized that Nobuyuki Asayama would come whenever he was free at night.
There was a reason why I had dinner with the mother and daughter.
Nobuyuki Anesama watched helplessly as the atmosphere became awkward and Kosatsu was kicked out. He immediately realized that something was wrong this time. He chewed the rice in his mouth dully and couldn't swallow it for a long time.
Chewing on the ground.
The reason why the originally harmonious dinner turned out like this is because just now, Ii Naotora mentioned Ii Torasatsu's Yuanfu ceremony. She said that Torasatsu has no father, and she doesn't know who to find to host the Yuanfu ceremony for him.
Can you invite Yu Qiuping?
Nobuyuki Anesama, on the other hand, answered without thinking: "Why don't you find a father for Kosatsu?"
·
"Lord Anayama, my meaning is clear enough, please don't mention these unpleasant things again." Ii Naotora sat upright and said to Nobuyuki Anayama seriously and somewhat dissatisfied, "How much more do you want me to say?
What about you? Husong likes you very much, and I think you are a good person, but our relationship is limited to friends, and that ends here."
"Why, Mrs. Ii? What is this? Why have you always refused to agree to me?" Nobuyuki Anesama saw that Ii Naotora had said such an absolute word, and asked angrily: "I told you before, you said
You don't like men who go to the Whale House. I have never been to the Whale House since then! Later I expressed it to you and you said that a man should focus on building a career and should not be obsessed with the personal affairs of his children. Later I decided
You have made great contributions and achieved great success in your official career, but you still refuse to agree, saying that Husong is still young! Now that Husong is about to serve, I express to you, but you still refuse to agree? Why is this? Why have I waited so hard for you for ten years?
Years, but you still refuse to agree to me?"
"I can't promise you, sir, and I don't want to hold you hostage. Every time I refuse, I explain this." Naotora Ii shook his head with a cold face, "Sir, don't wait any longer for me, it's not worth it.
.You are already 30, and other warriors have already married and had children, so there is no point in wasting your time like this."
"Mrs. Jingyi, are you still talking about me? I am 30, but you are already 34! Men will marry again even if they are 60 or 70, but how many women can marry after 20? Not to mention you want to
She’s 35!” Nobuhiro Anayama, who was still on top, actually forgot that age is a taboo for women, and replied bluntly: “Aren’t you worried about yourself?”
"This is not something Anayama-sama should worry about." Ii Naotora also had a look of anger on his face and retorted in a deep voice.
"Are you really planning not to marry for the rest of your life? Are you going to stay a widow for the rest of your life just for the sake of your engagement partner who has never even been a formal couple?" The matter has come to this.
Yamanobu simply broke the jar and cursed out the things he had been angry about for many years. Then he glared at Ii Naotora angrily, wanting to see how angry she was.
However, after Ii Naotora heard this curse from Nobuyuki Anayama, she suddenly calmed down, and the anger just now disappeared. She took a few deep breaths and replied in a low voice very calmly: "That's right. I am
A woman from the Ii family will remain a woman from the Ii family for the rest of her life. Hu Song is also the eldest son of the Ii family and will inherit the Ii family business in the future. Mr. Anayama, please don't waste any more time."
"I don't want you to change your surname, and I don't want Husong to take my surname as Aeshan! I just want to be with you!" Aeshan Xinshi shouted, and when he talked about his grievances, he suddenly started sobbing, "I just like you, look.
It’s not easy for you to pull Husong by yourself. I want to be your companion, I want to be your husband, and I want to be your father! Isn’t that okay? My surname is Jingyi.”
Nobuyuki Ayama's sudden and deviant words made Ii Naotora speechless for a moment. She didn't know what to say, and tears suddenly filled her eyes. She said it coldly, but Nobuyuki Asayama had spent the past ten years for their mother and son, how could she?
Not sure? How come you don’t have any feelings at all for this stupid man you’ve been with almost day and night for ten years?
"A woman in the Warring States Period could not help herself after all."
She sighed and uttered this sentence lightly. Then she hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "If I..."
However, before she could finish her sentence, Hu Song's voice suddenly came to mind at the door.
"Uncle Aneshan, Sister Longzi came to you and said that His Highness has an order for you to hurry over and hold an evaluation meeting."
Now that Torasatsu has arrived outside the door, Ii Naotora has no intention of talking any more. Nobuyuki Anesama also hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and rubbed his face vigorously to prevent Torasatsu from seeing his embarrassment. Then, and Ii
Naohu said goodbye, turned around, opened the door and left.

Although Husong didn't see anything unusual about Aeshan Xianshi, on the way back, the considerate Ryuko found that Aeshan Xianshi seemed to have cried.
"Master Aneshan, what happened to you just now?" After hesitating for a long time, Ryuko couldn't help but tilted his head and asked, "What happened?"
"Hey, what else is going on? Don't you and His Highness know about it? Don't the entire Yuqiu family also know about it?" Nobuyuki Anesama scratched his head in embarrassment and laughed at himself, "A woman is so quick.
She is 35, but she refuses to get married, no matter what. The other man is almost 30, and he is still clinging to her."
"Oh, that's right, Ryuko." Nobuyuki Anesama scratched his head, suddenly patted his head, and looked at Ryuko in surprise, "If I remember correctly, are you 20 this year? Why aren't you married yet?
It’s a bit late for you at your age!”
"This..." Longzi lowered his head in embarrassment upon hearing this, and replied softly: "I want to serve His Highness and Madam for a while longer."
"You can continue to work as a maid for His Highness and Madam after you get married. Will your husband's family refuse to let you?" Nobuyuki Anayama shook his head and retorted, "Or maybe like Madam's maid A Suzu?
It would be great to find a husband among His Highness's bodyguards, so that the young couple can stay with His Highness and Madam all the time, and there will be other maids to help take care of the baby when the baby is born."
"
Would you like His Highness to introduce you to a bodyguard? With your beauty, Ryuko, you don’t have to worry about it at all. Those bodyguards are all very energetic, and they are probably all vying to marry you!" At this point, Nobuyuki Anesama couldn't help laughing.
.Then, after he laughed for a while, he found that Ryuko's head lowered even deeper and stopped quickly.
"What's wrong, Ryuko? Are you embarrassed to tell His Highness?" Nobuyuki Anayama frowned and asked in a low voice, "How about I talk to Your Highness for you? Or let Madam do it?"
"No, Master Aneshan." Ryuko's face suddenly turned red. He took a few deep breaths, bit his lip and whispered softly, "Ryuuko already has a sweetheart."
"If you have a sweetheart, just go and tell me. If you feel that you are a girl and are embarrassed to speak, let His Highness and Madam do it." Nobuyuki Anayama saw Ryuko's shy look and smiled with some emotion, "You are of this age group.
That’s what you are like as a little woman. But you are not young either. You have to take care of your own affairs and let His Highness make arrangements quickly.”
"My lord is right." Long Zi suppressed tears from the corners of his eyes and nodded slightly.
It's just that I'm just like you, sir... we both have hopeless unrequited love.

After Nobuyuki Anayama arrived at the Maple Leaf Mountain Castle Castle Tower, the senior generals of the Uakiu Army had already gathered in the conference room. Even the captains of Tokiwabei and Narubei, Fukushima Yasunari and Charlie, rushed back from the station.
"You're back, kid. I've been waiting for you for a long time." After Yu Qiuping saw Nobuyuki Anayama sitting down, he waved his hand to signal Takenaka Shigeharu and whispered, "Everyone is here, Hanbei, you can start talking."
"Yes, Your Highness." Takenaka Shigeharu, who was sitting next to Yu Qiupei, nodded, stood up, and then spoke to everyone, "We received an order from Gifu the day before yesterday, and Oda Hall will lead the army in early October.
The army goes to Luo. This time the target is the important strongholds of the Miyoshi Army in Settsu, with Akutagawa Mountain Castle and Arioka Castle as the most important targets. The main force of the Oda family will be the main attack, and the troops of our Yuqiu family will fight with His Highness Matsunaga.
The troops of His Highness Ikeda and His Highness Takikawa acted as a special force and pretended to attack Takaya Castle in Minamigouchi to draw away the strength of the Miyoshi Army."
"The white paper in front of you is our plan for this operation. Please take a look at it." After Takenaka Shigeharu said this, he stopped and waited for everyone to finish reading before continuing.
: "Since the purpose of this operation is a feint attack, we do not take the capture of Gaowu City as our first goal, but we want to attract as many Sanhao troops as possible to the Gaowu City area for reinforcements. Therefore, we must be extremely aggressive when we first start the attack.
It is aggressive and attracts the attention of the Sanhao Army. Then, when the battle is actually going on, it is necessary to be as stable as possible and hold back the main force of the Sanhao Army."
The plans drawn up by Takenaka Shigeharu and his staff were always meticulous and without any loopholes. After reading them, everyone expressed no objections.
"If you don't have any other opinions, please start preparing." Yu Qiuping sighed with a wry smile, "This battle must be fought well. I provoked the lord quite badly before. This time, I must behave well.
"
Instead of having to fight against the Asai family, Yu Qiuping was very willing to fight against the Mihaoshi family. Moreover, he had his own little plan in mind.
If you behave well during this period and make military exploits, if Nagamasa and he are unfortunately defeated later, you can also intercede for him.
