Chapter 443 The belated bridal chamber(1/2)
Blizzards this year have been extremely frequent, and have almost never stopped since the beginning of winter. Echigo has long been accustomed to blizzards to the point that it doesn't matter, but Echichu, Kaga, Shinano, and Ueno, which are not used to it, have suffered from snow disasters.
Major attacks, and information about disasters in various places came one after another in the first month, which made it impossible for the followers to live a peaceful year, and they could only hurriedly gather together and work continuously on disaster relief work in various places.
It is worth mentioning that the Advocate has introduced many new faces in recent years, such as Nagao Masakae, who has always been the stayer of Kasugayama Castle, Naoe Keizuna, who has not been very active in the campaign, Tairako Fumasa, a remnant of the former Echigo Uesugi faction,
Chisaka Keiuchi, Usami Sadamitsu who turned to be a soldier, Yamayoshi Toyomori who performed mediocrely in military affairs but excelled in government affairs, Ishikawa Shigeuchi, Kawada Nagauchi's father Kawada Izumori Motachika, uncle Kawada Bokimori Shigechichi and others.
Among the new generation of followers, Mitsui Takayasu is the most outstanding. As early as the Tianwen years, he was favored by Kira Yoshitoki and started as the lowest follower. Over the years, he has worked step by step to become the leader of Dezhen Kaga Hankoku.
Position, only a few steps away from a higher position, maybe in a few years he will become one of the people with the greatest authority in Kasugayama City.
Kawada Nagachi and Masuda Nagamori performed very well. The two young men have been with Kira Yoshitoshi for many years. They read government documents from various places for Kira Yoshitoshi every day and accumulated some administrative experience. The most rare thing is that they have ordinary people.
Advocates have an overall view that no one has, and are accustomed to the decisions Kiragi made while sitting in the Kasuga Mountains. They are also very familiar with the work of the center, and almost everyone in the Advocate community does not know the two of them.
The two were assigned to Shinano and southern Ueno respectively to deal with the losses caused by the blizzard disaster. Handling government affairs does not mean that everything will be fine if you just deal with the things in front of you. Excellent followers should always think about how to improve themselves. So whenever there is an earthquake
, floods, windstorms, snowstorms, droughts and other major meteorological disasters. Young Fengshui is always on the front line, completing all tasks from distributing food to organizing rescue.
Kira Yoshi walked out of the evaluation room while rubbing his swollen temples, because the continuous heavy snowfall of the past few years had tortured him for five or six days without a good rest. He lamented that this new year was more tiring than before. The past Lantern Festival only represents this
The first month of the carnival was half over, and it was snowing heavily outside. They had nothing to do but stay in the city to drink and have fun. I don’t know how much alcohol they had to pour into their stomachs this winter.
Brewing is an emerging industry of the Kira family. The Kira family's sake is different from the traditional sacred wine used for sacrificial rituals. It is characterized by its clear, sweet and mellow taste, which makes the whole body feel hot. Because of this characteristic, the Echigo samurai affectionately called it saki.
In fact, in this era, Nanman merchants had already landed in Satsuma and brought the most primitive distilled liquor. Because of the characteristics of the distilled liquor, it was also called shochu, and the name was exactly the same as shochu.
There are only a few short months of warm weather in the northern country in a year. The severe cold climate gave birth to the perseverance of the Echigo people, and also made them fall in love with the habit of drinking. The samurai of Echigo were basically drunkards. One hundred
Ninety-nine samurai like to drink, but the only one is allergic to alcohol and cannot drink.
I love drinking, binge drinking, and even hangovers. I drink at home and on the road, and even on the march and during battles. Even during the evaluation meeting, there might be an alcoholic who takes out the bottle and takes a few sips to satisfy his craving. Like Teruhora Uesugi before he stopped drinking.
There are quite a few people who continue to drink heavily. However, Teruhora Uesugi's serious illness has made him restrain himself a lot, and the good life in the past two years has caused some people to become addicted to alcohol.
Kira Yoshitsune's repeated orders to ban drinking and punishing violators are of little use. The fines and confiscations are quite considerable, but they can't deter these drunkards anyway. These guys are laughing and joking, and as soon as they pay the fine, they get into the whale house and continue drinking.
, even if they were punished with all their money for a year, they would not be afraid of it. At worst, they would shamelessly borrow money on credit or ask someone to borrow money to continue drinking.
Later, Kira Yoshitoki also thought about it. Since you can't help drinking, why not just come up with a shochu to seduce your alcohol addiction. The newly launched shochu was available in unlimited quantities for half a year and successfully aroused the alcohol addiction of these drunkards. Later, it passed
Biwaya takes over all sources of sake entering Hokuriku, and gradually replaces traditional sake sales with shochu.
Then they were suddenly sold in limited quantities due to the lack of raw materials, forcing them to scratch their heads and unable to extricate themselves. They became addicted to drinking sake and drinking the original sake seemed like drinking water. Moreover, sake became expensive and scarce due to lack of sources, and a bottle was several times more expensive than before.
Instead of talking about it, it would be better to drink a small bottle and let them feel dizzy and ecstatic after drinking it. The Echigo samurai would no longer be interested in drinking sake.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, several shops that originally sold sake were pushed to the point of bankruptcy, and were strongly merged by Biwaya and became one of the industries owned by the Kira family. By this time, shochu had already established a firm foothold in Echigo, and gradually
If the sale of sake and shochu is released, the samurai will naturally give priority to shochu instead of sake. The new drinking habit is controlled by him. He only needs to control the amount of shochu put into the market to be able to drink it, but it is not enough.
In the level where you are addicted to drinking, don't let these Echigo samurai get in trouble because of greedy drinking.
"When winter comes in Kasugayama City, there are always people causing trouble. Drinking, fighting, fighting, and jealousy are always indispensable. Yu, the superintendent of the household, is really tired! He even has to worry about a group of drunkards drinking. I really don't know if I leave Yu's control.
What a mess these bastards will bring to the Kira family!" On the surface, Kira Yoshitsune complained that these retainers were looking for trouble for him, but in fact, he was secretly proud of his ability as a household governor.
Humming an unknown tune, he walked back to the Kasuga Imperial Palace and visited his wives and children as usual. Within a few months of returning to Kasugayama Castle, Kira Yoshitoki had made the three ladies' bellies bulge again.
Hu Ji was the first to get pregnant, and she vomited whatever she ate in the twelfth lunar month. A woman who had experienced pregnancy immediately knew that she was pregnant, so she took Kiragi's leave that night and gave him a year and a half.
Don't think about touching her body.
Kira Yoshitoki really wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Why did he forget to say a few words that proper married life during pregnancy would help with childbirth? What he said now was useless. A stubborn woman always felt that the man was coaxing her to have sex.
Every time, he was always worried about hurting the fetus in his belly, so that Kiragi didn't even practice the art of swallowing a spear. He could only run to Little Ahu and Little Sandalwood for comfort in frustration.
Unfortunately, these two gentle people soon stopped enjoying each other. A little more than a month after Hu Ji became pregnant, Nao Hu and Sandalwood became pregnant again one after another. They also followed suit and asked men not to touch their bodies. Although
He was not as powerful and domineering as Hu Ji, who bluntly said to give him a long vacation, but the expression of "I will cry if you don't want to" was really helpless, and in the end I could only reluctantly nod in agreement.
Before the first month of the lunar month, he once again returned to the life of a loner. It happened that he was busy with the evaluation meeting for handling the snow disaster. He didn't have to worry about being bored and staring at the maids. He was so busy today that he finally arranged everything that should be prepared.
There is basically nothing else that he, the house governor, has to do. He just needs to listen to the post-disaster statistical report to get some tax exemptions and tax exemptions. Then give him some relief compensation and do the post-disaster reconstruction and repair work.
When I walked outside the Huajian, I heard a group of women whispering something in the room. When Kiragi thought it was interesting, he sent the maid away and leaned against the door to listen to the corner. As a result, the Huajian suddenly stopped talking.
Kira Yoshi was still puzzled when he saw the door being pushed open, and several maids holding back their laughter came out and invited him in.
Kira Yoshi was confused by this. He walked in with questions all over his head and saw several women sitting together and looking at him. Toraji gave him a very meaningful look.
With a look in his eyes, he said softly: "His Highness came back so early today! Why did you stand outside the door and hear someone coming from the corner! I was talking to a few sisters about women's private words, but Your Highness was listening to the corner. Concubine
They don’t even have any private time, how pitiful it is!”
Several women held their hands and chuckled, which made him extremely embarrassed. He said to himself that he had been caught in the corner for once, and it was really unfair to have such a big hat slapped on him. Fortunately, the maids left the room earlier, otherwise Kira would have
In Yishi, the face and dignity of the head of the family will be lost.
"Ouch! Look at my memory, why did I forget that Yoshino is a very powerful ninja!" Kira Yoshitoki slapped his head and was annoyed. He knew that he shouldn't have listened to this corner a long time ago. In the end, he couldn't hit the fox but made a fuss. Since everything
When I walked in, I was too embarrassed to hide my face and run away. I could only rub my hands in embarrassment and approach Hu Ji with a smile and said, "I'm not afraid of disturbing your sex talk! That's why I stayed outside the door for a while.
I didn’t expect...Look at this, Yu Ping became a bad guy for no reason."
Hu Ji gave him a fleeting look and said with a smile: "Oh! So I have wronged Your Highness! It's because I didn't understand His Highness's good intentions! This is all my fault.
, I should say everything in front of His Highness... But did His Highness hear what the concubines were saying just now?"
"This seems to be saying... I didn't hear anything." Kira Yoshi's eyelids twitched, and when he was about to regret it, he blurted out the words. Only then did he realize that his wife was also playing tricks on him to deceive him and let him
I was caught without any precautions, and it was already too late to regret it at this time.
The next moment, several women burst into laughter, making him look so disgraced that he almost ran away. Kiragi simply shouted that he had been deceived and bared his teeth to scare people, but Hu Ji stood up and refused to look at him.
His belly showed changes, like a proud little hen showing off his great achievements. When Kira Yoshiki saw this posture, he immediately withered.
Kira Yoshishi covered his forehead and said helplessly: "Okay! As long as I don't care about you..."
Seeing his man's annoyed look, Naohu felt a little soft-hearted, so he whispered: "Your Highness, don't be angry. I was just discussing something with a few sisters just now..."
"Hey! Sister Naohu, you can't talk about it! It's not okay for us women to talk nonsense about our family affairs!" Hu Ji's face turned red with embarrassment, as if there were many stories in this private conversation that should not be told nonsense, Sandalwood
She was so embarrassed that her face was like red clouds flying all over the sky, and she quietly pulled Naohu's sleeves to prevent her from talking.
Yoshiki Kira is such a smart person. When he saw this situation, he understood immediately. Before he could speak, he heard Mochizuki Yoshino pulling the innocent-looking Mogami Yoshihime and saying to him: "Just now, the sisters said a lot. Yoshino listened.
I don’t understand something! It seems like I feel so comfortable that my soul is flying to the sky, and my breasts are a lot bigger. Sister Huji also said that Your Highness and Sister Huji like to use wuwuwu the most at night..."
The following words could no longer be said, because Hu Ji and Sandalwood grabbed her arms from left to right, and covered her mouth with both hands. The speed of their actions was beyond the reach of ordinary pregnant women. Hu Ji was furious.
He glared at Yoshino and warned her: "Sister Yoshino is disobedient again. Have you forgotten the rules we set? It is absolutely forbidden to reveal the private words between us! If you make a mistake, you will be punished!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
He flicked it, and educated him angrily and funnyly: "Don't do this next time, or your sisters won't take you to play."
"Yeah! Yoshino accidentally forgot, and he will never say anything nonsense in the future! Your Highness will not tell you even if you ask! Yoshino promises!" Mochizuki Yoshino, this idiot loli, seems to be smarter than before, and he still knows how to ask Kira Yoshi.
I won’t say anything. I used to be a big stupid fool, who would turn around and tell Kira Yoshiki everything he knew.
Therefore, she has been acting as Kira Yoshitoki's spy without knowing it. Of course, she is also a double agent, unknowingly letting out the information from both sides through conversations. I don't know what method Torahime uses to make this idiot loli learn to shut up.
They are tight-lipped and silent, and their appearance seems to be more intimate than the ordinary relationship between a wife and her concubine, like best friends striving to move forward and develop.
Kira Yoshishi gently glanced at the shy, angry and funny expressions of the three women, and said with a half-smile: "That's it! There are still some secrets that I can't let Yu know, no matter how much I ask Yoshino, I can't tell them.
ah!"
"Yeah! Even if His Highness asks, Yoshino will never say anything!" Mochizuki Yoshino clenched his fists and nodded vigorously at Kira Yoshi, as if this would be more convincing.
Mogami Yoshiki looked like the second idiot. She imitated Chiyo Mochizuki's clenched fists and tried to make a serious expression: "Yoshiki also wants to participate! Yoshiki is the most obedient! Yoshiki won't say anything!"
"
"Oh! It turns out that Yiji didn't tell Yu anything either! So since Yu didn't come to accompany you this lunch, what did you eat for lunch?"
"Winter bamboo shoots and mushroom soup! And the braised pork ribs are so good! Yiji's favorite..." The little girl became excited when it came to eating, and talked about a lot of things she had done in the afternoon, including talking with everyone.
At that time, I was thinking about what delicious food to eat at night, Yoshino-san secretly dozed off, Tanxiang-san's hair ornament was crooked, Naotora-san moved it slightly three times, and Torahime-san said a lot of things that I couldn't understand.
And so on.
"Yoshiki really has extraordinary insight! She can even see such a small difference, so amazing!" Kira Yoshitoki applauded her gently. The little girl was so happy to be praised that she didn't care about her older sisters.
His dejected look made everyone cry when he saw it.
Hu Ji let out a long sigh and secretly said that the situation was over. She surrendered obediently and said frankly: "Your Highness is indeed the most wise general in the world! With just a few words, he broke the small circle that I and others have worked hard to manage! Okay! Your Highness
Just say whatever you want to ask! Hu Ji will not refuse His Highness!"
"Actually, what I want to say is... you can live a married life between four and six months of pregnancy. As long as you are careful, there will be no problem at all. If you don't believe me, you can ask Mr. Nagata... Hey! Hey! Torah, you are
Get taken away! Listen to me..." Kiragi looked awkwardly at Toraji with a red face and angrily left.
Only then did he realize that he shouldn't say such words at this time and in this situation. He pretended to cough and pretended not to see the meaningful expressions of the other two women. He said with a smile: "Hu Ji is just a little uncomfortable."
Go rest for a while, it’s almost time for dinner, and ask the maid to call her out for dinner later, Yi Ji must be hungry, right?"
"Yeah! I'm so full after lunch, but Yiji is still hungry..."
"And Yoshino is hungry too!" The two lolita were so stupid that they didn't realize what just happened.
During the first update that night, Kira Yoshishi tried to enter Torahime's room but was sternly rejected. He forced his way in with a shy face and was kicked out. He heard Torahime's angry voice in the room: "Your Highness, you are such a bad guy!
To be continued...
