Nearly 60% of the fiscal revenue of Echizen Province comes from Tsuruga County, and more than 40% of the remaining 40% comes from Mikuni Minato, which can never guarantee absolute safety, and taxes from commercial facilities including Ichijodani Castle Town. On the contrary, the Asakura family comes from the village
The amount of money collected from the country is actually not much. A large number of temples, ministers, and shogunate estates in the country still maintain a semi-independent posture. There are also some guardianship privileges enjoyed by the people, which also makes the Asakura family
The degree of centralization has always remained at the middle to lower level.
In a sense, Asakura Yoshikage, the governor of the house, relied on a few taxes to maintain his luxurious life, and nearly 90% of the territory of Echizen Province was controlled by the namesake clan, the genealogy clan, the national clan, as well as the manors of temples, ministers, and shogunate
In his hands, these fiscal and tax revenues have to be sifted through by big bosses such as Tsuruga County Sheriff, which shows that the actual control of his family governor is still very weak.
The total number of troops controlled by Ichijogaya is only more than 4,000 soldiers. It can only be compared with the relatively weak Ashuba Commander in the clan of the same name. It is no match for the Ono clan and Tsuruga clan, not to mention the huge number of Hokudai people.
, Asakura Yoshikage chose to set up a memorial group to decentralize power from the powerful Shodai group, and took the position of Asakura Army General from the hands of the richest Tsuruga County Secretary, etc., these are actual actions that show that he is
The family governor was dissatisfied with the powerful family.
The total strength of the Echizen Kingdom exceeds 35,000, but Asakura Yoshikage can only mobilize about 60% of them at most. For example, this time the Kira Army broke into Tsuruga County and attracted 5,000 Tsuruga defenders.
, and in the crusade against Yikui, the Tsuruga army invested 6,000 troops, so it can be seen that Tsuruga alone controlled 11,000 troops.
Although the strength of these five thousand troops does not mean that it is a force that Tsuruga County can control, but a resistance force spontaneously organized by local lords to surround their homes. But this also reflects the control of Asakura Yoshikage from the side.
How weak his power was. He, the governor of the household, felt very uncomfortable and constrained everywhere. He could only use some unconventional methods to seize power.
When he faced the huge threat from the Kira family, he realized that he had no strength to resist. Once Tsuruga Port was captured by the Kira family, it would not only directly jeopardize all the interests of Tsuruga County, but also threaten Asakura Yoshikage's already weak power.
As for core interests, losing the interest transfer from Tsuruga Port will bring huge disaster to the Asakura family, and they may fall into decline.
Asakura Yoshikage was really scared. Only then did he understand a simple truth. The Asakura family can use the merchant pass to threaten the Kira family, and the Kira family can use maritime hegemony to threaten the Asakura family. This is called
In contrast, the Asakura family has no more ways to deal with the Kira family than to treat others in their own way.
Yoshitoshi of Dakyuji Temple clasped his hands and saluted: "From the perspective of the poor monk, Jingoden and Zhenfu Gong are both good ministers of the shogunate, so they should turn their conflicts into friendship to prevent the disaster of weapons from raging in the world and causing a disaster... The poor monk has already
I have brought you the words from Sado Shouden, so I won’t disturb Kingoden anymore, so I’ll say goodbye!”
Until a long time after Daikakuji Yoshitoshi left, Asakura Yoshikage was not freed from his shock. He hurried to the evaluation room to hold a small evaluation meeting. The topic of discussion was the war threat issued by the Kira family. Maeba Kagesada sighed: "
The modern Minjing Gong once said that there are many dangers in the world and many hardships in family business! At first, we did not take seriously the teachings of the sages. We felt that the Asakura family was prosperous and it was the time to work hard. It was too belittling to say some discouraging words...
Only now did we realize that the world is changing like the shadow of the moon in the water, making it difficult to figure out which is real and which is an illusion. Strong enemies surround the world and it is difficult. My Asakura family is between two major forces, and I can offend either party.
It will have a profound impact on me, but I am really walking on thin ice!"
The legacy of Zhoubo Jingti is the "Yinglin Wall Book", which contains many experiences in dealing with people that Asakura Toshikage has summarized over decades, including many admonitions such as bravery, unity, self-discipline and frugality, because it was written at the time of Mingyi
It was a difficult time for the Asakura family before the coup, but with the changes in the world, the Asakura family's family governor felt that these family mottos were not keeping up with the actual situation, so Zhu Junan abandoned them.
Asakura Yoshikage's face turned green and white. After thinking about it, he felt that the Asakura family was indeed not the opponent of the Kira family. He sighed in his heart: "I was mistaken for the Tsujiangetsu Three Kingdoms Alliance! If I had known that my family should not have participated in this Three Kingdoms
In the alliance, the lessons learned from the Three Kingdoms Alliance are still in front of our eyes, so why do we still believe in the sweet words of the Mihaoshi family?"
He will not admit how proactive he was when he founded the Three Kingdoms Alliance, nor will he admit that half a year ago he was still strongly advocating for sanctions on the Kira family territory of Omi Sakamoto, and a few months ago he was established within the three counties of Echizen Omi.
Sekissuo, as well as maneuvering the people of Takashima County, bewitching the Tango Isshiki clan, and the Wakasa Takeda clan's actions against the Kira family were all tricks he concocted.
But now that the Kira Army came to show off their power, he felt that it was Miyoshi Nagakei's fault that prompted all this. Without the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance, he would not have been hit. Maybe the Sanrihama riots and the Asakura scenery
The death of Gao will also disappear. If Asai Nagamasa is not so stupid and continues to use his magical skills to defeat the Kira family again in the Battle of Shiyue to keep Ika County safe, Tsuruga County will not be attacked and imprisoned.
If it's a burning problem, he won't be threatened or intimidated by others.
The mentality that you are always the victim only if it is someone else's fault highlights that the governor's psychology is completely abnormal. Asakura Yoshikage seems to be aware that he is mentally disturbed. He often feels that the young prime minister is by his side, and even just
While talking to him in the room just now, he would occasionally see that unrecognizable face with a big bloody hole in his sleep. He would be frightened and wake up, yelling crazily and punishing Xiao Xing and the maid on night duty. He felt that his spirit was really strong.
There is a problem.
The headache came right away. Asakura Yoshikage covered his head and stood up and said: "I have a headache and need to rest. I will leave these matters to you!"
Watching Asakura Yoshikage leave, the family members of the Asakura family discussed with each other how to deal with it. Some of the family members believed that they should not be soft at this time but should maintain a certain degree of toughness. They should not change orders day and night, and they should not break promises, otherwise
Offending the Kira family and then the Miyoshi family and Asai family will only be a disaster for the Asakura family.
But this statement is obviously untenable. If they had the confidence to fight against the Kira family a few months ago, now everyone in the Asakura family knows that they can no longer fight. The confrontation between the Tsuruga clan and the Ono clan is a big trouble.
Asakura Kage has not directly accused Asakura Kage until now, but it will not be too long before they completely break up with each other. If he turns around and sees that the Kira family is really a powerful force that cannot afford to offend.
The absence of the three elders from the meeting made the meeting less authoritative. Yamazaki Yoshie glanced at the many ministers in the room and said softly: "This matter has its own public opinion, so I won't talk about it anymore. What I want to talk about is my lord."
His mental state is very delicate. In recent days, the lord's behavior has become more and more strange. Almost every day, news comes from the main pill that Xiao Xing and the maids have been punished. Xiao Xing and the maids spend the whole day in fear. It is not a good idea to go on like this.
Either way, sooner or later it will affect the stability of the family business."
"That's right. The two ladies beside my lord have both passed away. I feel that I should find a gentle and beautiful lady for my lord, and use the tenderness of a woman to heal the wounds in my lord's heart." The first half of Yoshitomo Kawai's speech was rather complicated.
It's normal, but the second part has the meaning of writing something deviant, which caused a burst of understanding laughter in the evaluation room.
Fukuoka Yoshikiyo expressed his dissatisfaction with a groan, but he was quite moved by the proposal. After thinking about it in his mind for a while, he suggested: "It is said that there is a handsome and charming person in the Saito Military Department Shaofuden, who is also gentle and kind-hearted.
Why don’t you choose this woman from Saito’s family?”
…
Kira Yoshitsune was sorting out the information sent by the Kira ninjas, and he had a rough understanding of Kinai's situation. As expected, the Echizen Asakura family had a fierce dispute, and the Asakura family's most powerful Niuchi clan also broke out as expected.
On the road to complete confrontation, as long as there are Kira ninjas outside stirring up trouble and causing trouble, there is no need to worry about the possibility of the two families getting along harmoniously.
Asai Nagamasa, who is hailed as the star of hope for Kinai's new generation, also tested his true skills in several brief battles with Yamamoto Tokiyuki. He is talented, brave and tenacious. The most important characteristic is that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they are not afraid of the sky or the earth.
Even the combination of Kira Jun and Yamamoto Tokiyuki dared to collide once. Another advantage is that the pretty boy is quite handsome.
Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. Asai Nagamasa's shortcomings are also very obvious. The most important one is blind self-confidence and a rudimentary understanding of military strategy. As a general, he rushes to the front line with the military power and commands.
At that time, Masa Isono was sent as the first formation to attract firepower, and then Nagamasa Asai led his formation to attack the flanks in a roundabout way. These three ax-style moves were cheerful, but they also exposed his limited talents.
From the current point of view, Asai Nagamasa is an excellent general who can command troops, but he does not have the ability to be an excellent samurai to take on the role of a general. In addition, in terms of intelligence and strategy, he is completely unqualified from the current situation. He even dispatched the lord of Hiden City.
Takanose Hidetaka always used fake hands to act on behalf of others, which shows that he is not a wise and resourceful general. He is somewhat similar to Takikawa Tokiyoshi and Honjo Nobunaga, but he lacks their rich knowledge and sophisticated methods, and he lacks the ability to fight one against a hundred.
Bravery and courage.
Compared with the deep and cunning father of Asai Nagamasa, there is still a lot of difference. Combined with some rumors that Asai Hisamasa was claustrophobic, it was actually a play performed by himself and his son Asai Nagamasa, aiming to use this opportunity to completely
Reversing the main contradiction during the Asai Hisamasa administration, the humiliation suffered by being subordinate to the Rokkaku family externally, and the inability to satisfy the agitated people's demands for independence internally.
Perhaps because he was more convinced that his son could give full play to his talents as a family governor, Asai Nagamasa directed and acted a trick to retire easily. Facts have proved that Asai Nagamasa indeed has extraordinary strength. As soon as he came to power, he promoted the Kinai Three Kingdoms
Allied with each other and became the son-in-law of the Miyoshi family and the brother-in-law of Asakura Yoshikage, and then defeated his old enemy Rokkaku Yoshihide to gain complete independence in form. In his hands, the Asai family completed a top-to-bottom reform, and indeed reached the stage of its initial retreat.
established goals.
However, Asai Nagamasa's retreat exposed his shortcomings of lack of experience. His strong character can gain the support of the people in the country, and at the same time, it is easy to cause him a lot of unnecessary trouble. For example, Asai Nagamasa questioned the death of his sister Akuhime.
This aroused the displeasure of the Asakura family, and his rash military actions against the Kira family aroused dissatisfaction among many people in Ika County.
The powerful people in Ika County and the grandfather of Asai Nagamasa, Iguchi Keigen, secretly betrayed and were kept in the dark. The important bargaining chip Kyogoku Takayoshi and his family were easily rescued by Kira ninjas. This is the Asai family's flourishing family business.
There was a bomb buried deeply, but no one noticed it until the bomb detonated.
As for the last and most important link of the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance, the Miyoshi Family, the current situation is far from wonderful. As the other two members of the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance experienced problems at the same time, Miyoshi Changqing had no spare capacity to provide military support.
To some extent, it also reduces the prestige of the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
The Miyoshi family was held back by Hatakeyama Takamasa in the Kawachi Kingdom. This guy was originally a very difficult thorn to deal with. The Kawachi Hatakeyama family was a powerful family in the shogunate and one of the three leading families. The family lineage can be traced back to Genpei Kamakura.
The era has countless glory and glorious history, and its influence in the country of Hanoi can only be described as being at its peak. Looking at the betrayal of Youzuo Xinjiang, you know that the choice between the two will not be easy for this group of people.
Change.
If Hatakeyama Takamasa a few years ago was just a reckless young man. Now he not only receives heavy financial support from the Kira family, but also often receives advice from the wise general Yamamoto Tokiyuki. Although this guy's brain structure will always be the same as that of a normal person.
Differently, he often puts Yamamoto Tokiyuki's suggestions aside and tries to fight head-on and suffer a small loss, but the overall performance still tends to be more difficult.
It’s so annoying to have brown candy that sticks to your hands and can’t get rid of it. However, this Hanoi country was once swallowed by the Mihaoshi family. When I thought I had made a big profit, I realized that it was like a fish bone stuck in my throat. When I swallowed it, there was this fish bone blocking it. It was so uncomfortable. I thought
I spit it out and was afraid that the fish bones would turn into a time bomb and blow a big hole in the already weak foundation of the Mihaoshi family, so I was stuck in a dilemma, not to mention how painful it was.
Miyoshi Nagakei hates Hatakeyama Takamasa extremely. But this invincible little strong always reappears after being frustrated, and he gets up from where he fell and continues to pester. The Miyoshi family must send General Miyoshi Yoshihide to lead 30,000 people.
The military suppressed the situation, and from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, there was no complete stability for a month.
In addition to this trouble, there is another annoying guy who gives Miyoshi Nagakei a headache. His name is Hatano Hideharu. This is a son of vengeance who bears the hatred of his country and family in a sea of blood. He hates the Miyoshi family so much that he wants to eat their flesh and drink it.
His blood has not stopped since the recapture of Yagami Castle. The reason is that he is sad to unite the Tanba people and is unwilling to be ruled by the rude and arrogant Miyoshi family. He has always maintained a strong military suppression of Naito Munekatsu of Yagi Castle, making the Miyoshi family strong.
The family's business in Damba is in danger of getting completely out of control.
What's even worse is that this young man actually married the daughter of the Akamatsu family with whom he has no relationship. As a declining famous family, the Akamatsu family still maintains a weak influence on Harima, Mimasaku, Bizen and other neighboring countries, especially the Harima country.
The influence is very far-reaching. The Uno Akamatsu clan, the guardian of Nishi Harima, and the Bessho clan, the guardian of Higashi Harima, are all branches of the Akamatsu family. Once this family finds a suitable reason to unite, it will still be a troublesome opponent if it really exerts its strength.
, the last time he defeated Miyoshi Yoshiken in Harima Country is a clear proof.
With the pregnancy of Hatano Hideharu's wife, the connection between Harima Kingdom and Tamba Kingdom has been further deepened. It is said that the two guardians of Harima Kingdom have already discussed the countermeasures. If the Hatano family gives birth to a daughter, she will marry Bessho Anji's legitimate son Kosaburo.
, if she gives birth to a legitimate son and marries Akamatsu Masahide's legitimate daughter as his wife, this news is enough to shock and scare Miyoshi Nagakei.
The Akamatsu family's inward demand for military diplomacy made Miyoshi Nagakei realize that he was a little too big. With the Kira family as a powerful enemy, he could not even sleep peacefully. He could not make more enemies for the Miyoshi family to provoke.
Trouble, so under the guidance of the thought of avoiding making more enemies, Miyoshi Nagakei was a little more tolerant of Hatano Hideharu, the actual controller of Tamba.
Miyoshi Nagakei is willing to give Hatano Hideharu more autonomy, tacitly allow him to dominate the existing territory and remain the nominal lord of Tamba, and does not allow him to make a series of dangerous military provocations against Yagi Castle, as long as the Hatano family is willing to accept the nominal title
All the conditions for belonging to the Sanhao family are easy to say.
From Sanhao Changqing's point of view, the conditions he is willing to offer can be described as humble. Such calm comfort a year in advance is definitely a fantasy, but the situation is stronger than the person, and you have to make flexible adjustments to adapt to this.
In an era full of crises and opportunities, he asked himself that this choice can be regarded as a major change in proactive adjustments in recent years.
However, he still misjudged Hatano Hideji's hatred for the Miyoshi family, and even more misjudged the influence that the Kira family exerted on Hatano Hideharu. The annual heavy financial rewards to support the Hatano family's resistance to the tyranny of the Miyoshi family could be used to strengthen Hatano Hideji's influence on Tamba.
The Sanhao family will never give him these conditions due to his huge influence in the country, because if he gives them to the family, he will face the help of more families in the territory. This is something the Sanhao family will never stand.
The so-called granting of autonomy is something he already owns, so it’s not called granting. What’s the use of just giving the Hatano family the ability to block things. What he wants is to completely dominate the Tanba Kingdom and complete the Sengoku Daimyo transformation. In this process, he cannot do without the financial assistance of the Kira family.
, and it is inseparable from the name of anti-three good righteousness brought by the invasion of Naito Munekatsu. Without this name, how could he command the people of Tamba and complete the process of becoming a daimyo during the Warring States Period?
Not to mention that under the influence of this name, the court and the shogunate obviously paid more attention and favor to Hatano Hideharu, and he married a beauty from the Akamatsu family, a famous anti-three-good family, as his wife. It was simply killing two birds with one stone.
It's a good deal. Who in the world can resist the choice of getting huge profits and only doing one harm?
Hatano Hideharu refused Miyoshi Nagakei's olive branch without hesitation, and ridiculed the Miyoshi family for only now thinking of treating the Tanba people favorably, so why did they inflict such cruelty on his father in the early years, and why did they repeatedly bully and insult the Tanba people, and
He directly denounced Miyoshi Changqing as a complete hypocrite. He used his hands stained with the blood of innocent people to defeat his superiors and become the leaders. He was called the overlord of Kinai but was actually a silverfish in Kinai.
The righteous rejection made Miyoshi Nagakei embarrassed and ashamed. No one had dared to accuse him so publicly in so many years. Hatano Hideharu not only refused his olive branch, but also took the opportunity to publicize it to promote himself.
A statement that is not afraid of power and allows the Miyoshi family to act as a clown in this incident. How can this not make him angry and angry?
Miyoshi Nagakei is full of hatred, jealousy and resentment towards Hatano Hideharu. He hates Hatano Hideharu's hostile and disobedient attitude towards him. He is jealous of the influence of the Hatano family on the Tanba people and the Harima Akamatsu family. He is resentful that this guy has repeatedly ignored him.
At least you dare to use his name to buy your own good reputation.
Dare not take action to expose the weakness of the Miyoshi family from the side. In the propaganda fanned by the Kira Ninja, Miyoshi Nagakei turned into a villainous samurai family who bullied the weak and feared the strong. Under the surface of the court and shogunate, they concealed a greedy and vicious heart, claustrophobic at the bottom and claustrophobic at the top.
Hosokawa Harumoto showed his rebelliousness and lawlessness, and his repeated threats to the shogunate revealed his cruelty and unintentional nature.
Repeatedly failed due to the Kira family's counterattacks, it was difficult to deal with the brave Hatakeyama Takamasa, the very weak Rokkaku Seizaki, and the even weaker Hatano Hideharu, time and time again exposing the weak nature of Miyoshi Nagakei, who only bullied his own clan and bullied the weak.
The main family bullied the generals who were weakened by repeated chaos, and bullied the powerless princes of the court.
Faced with such a vicious rumor, even Miyoshi Changqing could not help but change his expression. It seemed that this rumor was not as terrible as the previous evil spirits and yakshas, but in fact this rumor was about the elusive gods, ghosts, and the like.
The materialization of things is a more concrete description of Miyoshi Changqing's character. Bullying the weak, fearing the strong, greedy and vicious is enough to shape his image into a clown of the martial arts family.
In the future, his reputation in the country will change from a monster among children to a yellow banner star that the people of the country will change their eyes upon hearing. This is by no means as simple as being stinky in the wind. If things go on like this, the people of the country who are worthy of his subordinates may also be born.
Among them, one time when he was passing by the atrium, he overheard Xiao Xing talking about the reputation of the family governor. In his words, he seemed to be very disdainful of Mihao Changqing's appearance and appearance.
In the past, he had never noticed how important reputation was to him. It was not until he encountered this incident that he realized that his reputation had become extremely bad. Even the family members of the family could not stand that their lord was a despicable person who bullied others and was afraid of others. Miyoshi
The family does not need a house governor with a bad reputation. Being stained with too much stigma will damage the prestige of Sanhao Changqing.
The heavy worries made Miyoshi Nagakei no longer interested in dealing with the Kira family. He took 500 elite banners and settled in the Kyoto Gokokuji Temple in Kyoto. He continued to appear in various public places to participate in cultural activities in Kyoto, and worked hard to do charity.
Poor townspeople repair damaged Buddhist temples and pagodas in Kyoto, trying their best to improve their accumulated notoriety through such actions.
…
Under the control of the Kira ninjas, various tricks were used to exert adverse effects on the Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance. This was partly because the main members of the Kira ninjas, Koga and Iga, were in Kinki's circle of influence and had too much power.
There are many channels to exert influence on the common people, and it is easy to establish an influence that cannot be underestimated among the civilian class in the region.
On the other hand, the Kira family's accumulation in Kinai is too strong. For two hundred years, the Kira family's family governors have served the shogun in Kyoto for generations. Various relationships of varying depths are almost everywhere in the Kinai. These are of no use at all.
The relationship is meaningless from the perspective of the ordinary samurai family. But under the influence of the Kira family and money, it becomes an excellent stepping stone.
These are all things that the Miyoshi family who lacks foundation are difficult to imitate. Miyoshi Nagakei knows that he has been led by the nose but is helpless. Several attempts at countermeasures have ended in failure, which shows that he is far inferior to Kira in the utilization of resources.
As for the other two members of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, they were completely manipulated by Kira Yoshitoki. Perhaps they were tricked to death without knowing when and how they died.
"The Kinai Three Kingdoms Alliance is nothing, and I only need to use clever tricks to turn them into a bunch of trash surrounded by internal and external troubles." Kira Yoshi paced back and forth and thought secretly: "On the contrary, the samurai family in Kanto seem to be
Even more difficult to deal with, he managed to plant a bomb and a poison bait in the Takeda family, but the cunning Takeda Shingen could resist not biting the hook. It was really troublesome!
Hojo Ujiyasu, an old fox, is even more slippery. Three generations of the Hojo family have managed to build an iron-clad wall between Sagami and Izu, making it impossible for anyone to seize Hojo's weaknesses and exploit them...
The three old foxes are all as cunning as ghosts. They are much better than those idiots in Kinei!"
After thinking for a moment, I decided to put aside my troubles for the time being. I also remembered that when I was listening to Huzai Zongyi's sermon a few days ago, I met a strange and familiar Tiantai Sect monk Longxing Temple Suifeng, a strange face, a strange person, and a familiar person.
He didn't know where Longxing Temple was due to his name and familiar deeds, but that didn't stop him from remembering that during the Warring States Period, there was Monk Suifeng, a monk from the Tendai Sect from Oshu.
This bold young monk dared to use ancient metaphors to describe the present. He pointed at him and said, "Everyone knows Sima Zhao's heart." He also said that Sima Zhao only usurped the throne halfway before Sima Yan abdicated and proclaimed himself emperor, implying that he wanted to imitate Sima Zhao's act of abdication.
Winning the position of general, this astonishing move almost scared Toraya Souichi to the point of fainting.
Kira Yoshitoshi rarely showed expressions of surprise and anger. Although he has always appeared in front of the world as a guardian of the shogunate or a loyal minister and general, he has maintained a good reputation from beginning to end without any bad reputation. But this does not hinder
The smart people in the world discovered that he had "Sima Zhao's heart", and the Kira family always had a deep understanding and a high degree of tacit understanding about this.
For example, Teruhora Uesugi hid his thoughts and was willing to be a taciturn man. The elder of the House of Generations also noticed that he had this intention. He was always struggling and didn't know how to face it, so he devoted himself to religion to escape. And the Kira family
Several of his main opponents can also more or less guess his true ambition. In the words of Yoshitoki Kira, this is called "doing things that cannot be said."
Kira Yoshitoki was deeply impressed by this bold and courageous monk, and decided on the spot to retain him as a minister of worship. In fact, he was Kira Yoshiki's adviser and scholarly monk, and the story of Ryuuxing Temple's self-recommendation was also overturned.
The post-samurai interpretation became a heavenly classic. Suddenly, more and more young boys came to Kira's house and made shocking remarks. Although most of them were talking nonsense without waking up, they really made the followers discover how many
There are both gains and losses in a grain of sand.
"Smart, bold, observant, and very daring to think and do! This Sui Feng is so interesting!" Kira Yoshi smiled knowingly while looking at the sunset in the distance, and slowly left the castle tower and walked towards the imperial palace surrounded by deep woods.
There his wife and children were waiting for the husband and father.
During this year, Kira Yoshitsune added a son and three daughters, which completely dissipated the worries of the retainers about the meager family governor. The second son, Katsuoumaru, is an energetic little guy who cries loudest every time he is hungry.
After feeding, he still didn’t sleep and kept babbling, reaching out to touch the small pendant hanging on the cradle. In contrast, his sister, Little Apple, was much calmer and seldom cried after eating and sleeping.
Even when she is awake, she doesn't like to cry loudly. Instead, she opens her big eyes and looks curiously at the strange world.
Torahime and Xianghime are much smaller than Little Apple and Shengoumaru, and their troubles are relatively more frequent, and they are troublesome at all times of the day and night, so the wet nurse and several maids are busy taking care of them. Fortunately,
There is some distance between the nursery and the room where their mothers rest, so it is not too much trouble for several mothers who have just given birth. (To be continued...)
