"Third brother..." After seeing that the person in front of him was indeed a real person, Imagawa Yoshimoto couldn't help but take a breath.
"Ujitoyo, and that little surname, you go out, I will only talk to Yoshimoto." Imagawa Yoshima glanced at Furuno Ujitoyo and Hayasaka Nao, and said in a deep voice without explanation, "And stay away, don't hear it.
Our conversation.”
"How is that possible? What if you want to try another trick and commit an assassination?" asked the Furuno clan in a cold voice.
"His Highness cannot be allowed to be in the same room with you." Hayasaka Nao also protested in a deep voice.
"Do you still think that the body search just now was not enough? Is it possible for me to defeat Yoshimoto with my bare hands?" Imagawa Yoshima shook his head disdainfully, as if he didn't want to talk nonsense with Yutaka Furuno and Nao Hayasaka. "Besides, if I
If you really want to play tricks, why would you go back to Imagawakan to die? You have already gone to Mikawa or Sagami."
"Don't even think about it." That Furunoji Yutaka snorted.
"Then I won't say anything. You can just kill me." Imagawa Yoshima's attitude was even more decisive.
"It's okay, just do as he said." Imagawa Yoshimoto saw that Furunoji Yutaka and Hayasaka Nao wanted to say more, so he raised his hand to indicate that they didn't need to, "The third brother is right, he is not my opponent."
"Fourth brother, please be careful. If you are in danger, call out immediately. I will lead someone to wait at the end of the corridor." Furunoji Yutaka was still a little worried. He gave the final instructions before exiting the room and closing the door behind him. Hayasaka Nao said
He looked around the room uneasily, fearing that Imagawa Yoshima might have left some trap.
"Tell me, third brother, what are you going to do when you come back?" Imagawa Yoshimoto frowned and carefully looked at the embarrassed Imagawa Yoshima, "You know, my teacher and mother will definitely kill you. No matter what,
It’s impossible for you to leave Imagawa Hall alive.”
"I had no intention of getting out alive. Besides, 'Imagawa Yoshima' had already died in the fire in Yuanjiang. Please stick to this statement and just say that I burned myself to death at that time. Don't tell the outside world.
I am still alive, I was executed after I escaped to the Imagawa Hall." Imakawa Yoshima's expression did not change, but he gave some instructions that Imagawa Yoshimoto did not understand.
"Third brother, do you want to change your identity and work at home?" Imagawa Yoshimoto thought he had read the subtext of Imagawa Yoshima.
"No, the only purpose I came here for—" Imagawa Yoshima protracted, raised his head, and stared into Imagawa Yoshimoto's eyes, "is to let you kill me with your own hands, Yoshimoto."
"Why?" Imagawa Yoshimoto didn't understand at all.
"Before that, why don't you listen to a story first?" Imagawa Yoshima suddenly smiled and leaned comfortably against the straw-covered corner behind him.
"Third brother, please tell me." Imagawa Yoshimoto was confused and didn't know what kind of medicine Imagawa Ryozen was selling in his gourd.
"Once upon a time, there was a family that was one of the most famous in the world. However, when it was at its peak, the family fell into ruin due to the accidental death of the family governor. Afterwards, the family was wiped out by foreign enemies, and the direct descendants were usurped. The remaining clan members embarked on a journey of revival.
The path of the direct descendants of the family. But the person who usurped the direct descendants of the family was the current shogunate, so how could the surviving members of the direct descendants be allowed to return? The clan members were forced to go into exile overseas after their defeat."
"Although the shogunate was magnanimous and did not pursue responsibility, the whole world was full of people who wanted to claim credit from the shogunate and were desperately hunting down the whereabouts of their clan members. The clansmen had no choice but to live in hiding and in exile around the world. Gradually, they were willing to
There are fewer and fewer people following you. And with the development of the world, there are fewer and fewer gray areas for people to hide."
"There was a child who was the remaining male descendant of the surviving family. As long as he could remember, he had been wandering with his parents and tribesmen in dirty slums all day long. He could not see the light, eat a full meal, or sleep well all day long. Picked up
His mobile phone was his only channel for learning and communicating with the outside world. He used this mobile phone to read books and play games, including his favorite "Ambition" series. But it was this mobile phone that accidentally exposed the secrets of his tribe.
The information led to the pursuit of the pursuers. The child's parents were killed, and the remaining clan members were almost wiped out."
"Is it the child's fault? What's wrong with a child wanting to know what the world is like? What's wrong is this damn fate. If the family hadn't been usurped, his parents wouldn't have died, right?
His tribe will no longer have to live in exile like wild dogs all day long, and his life and the lives of countless people will be different."
"If he gets a chance to change all of this, a chance to reverse the family's declining destiny, and a chance to save the direct descendants of the family from heading into that desperate future, what do you think he will do?"
Imagawa Yoshima finished telling his story with tears in his eyes, and finally burst into tears, but Imagawa Yoshimoto couldn't understand what he was saying at all.
"It's okay, Yoshimoto. You don't need to know, and you don't need to know this. The more you know, the more dangerous you are. If you know everything I know, my death will be meaningless." Imagawa Yoshima wiped his hands.
With tears in his eyes, he showed a smile to Imagawa Yoshimoto, "You only need to know those limited and useful ones, those that can help the Imagawa family become stronger, but will not bring disaster to the Imagawa family."
"Third brother, what do you mean?" Imagawa Yoshimoto was completely confused.
"I said you don't need to know, but I want to tell you that everything I have done in the past two years has been for the Imagawa family. My love for the Imagawa family is far greater than yours. I am willing to sacrifice my life for the Imagawa family.
Even everything I have, but you can't do it." Imagawa Ryojin's eyes became red again, and he choked up a little as he spoke.
"But I woke up too late. I didn't wake up until the end was done. I thought that as long as I showed my knowledge that transcended the times like the plots in countless novels I had read in my previous life, I could make a way out of troubled times.
God, I can lead the Imagawa family to conquer the world and protect this great family forever. But I was wrong. I thought too simply. Why did I naively think that I was the only chosen one?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I foolishly exposed myself, while others hid their identities well and tried their best to trick me, my kind. Every time one of them died, their competitors
There is only one person missing. I finally understand why everything I have done in the past two years has not gone as planned. No matter where I go, there are people who make trouble for me... I finally understand. After I revealed my identity rashly
At that moment, I was destined to be killed by countless open and hidden arrows."
"The identity of 'Imagawa Yoshima' and my face have been on their death list forever. As long as I am still alive, there will be countless attacks on the Imagawa family, and there is no way to prevent them. Because of those
The attack was either for family interests or simply to eliminate me as a person."
"More than anyone else, I want to personally protect the Imagawa family and the direct descendants of the Imagawa family, but now I can't do it. I can't do it with my identity as 'Imagawa Yoshima'. Only if I die can the Imagawa family no longer be the 'target of public criticism'"
, other people will not target the Imagawa family. So I can only entrust everything to you, Yoshimoto, and let you take over my mission and protect the Imagawa family for me."
Imagawa Yoshimoto straightened up and walked slowly towards Imagawa Yoshimoto. Imagawa Yoshimoto stepped back with some fear and put his hand on the handle of the knife warily, but Imagawa Yoshimoto didn't care at all.
"Don't be afraid, I don't have any ill intentions towards you. Everything I did was ultimately for the Imagawa family. I wanted to kill you before because I wanted to protect the Imagawa family myself. Now that I can't do it, I have no choice but to rely on you.
How could I do something to you if I am dead?"
He paused, looked at Imagawa Yoshimoto very solemnly, and said in an unprecedentedly low voice:
"What I will tell you next, you must bury it in your heart forever and not talk to anyone. Once the news leaks out, it will bring disaster to you. I know that you may not understand the importance of this matter, so I can handle it.
I won’t be tight-lipped, but I can’t explain its importance to you. Because explaining the matter itself would reveal too much information. So I will only tell you a part of the knowledge selectively. In this way, even if it is leaked, it will not
As for killing the Imagawa family."
"First, you can implement all my reforms. Whether it is military reform, political reform, or commercial reform, all of them can be continued. Externally, you can say that you have inherited the policies I left behind.
.If you think it’s too hasty, you might as well come here one by one, it doesn’t matter. But you must always remember that everything I do is definitely the trend of the future.”
"Second, after 22 years... no, not just after 22 years. As long as you want to go to Luo, when passing by Owari, you must never take the barrel narrow room, never march in the rain, and absolutely never accept the local people.
The labor food presented by the local tycoons must never stay in the mountainous areas, and be absolutely careful of the Oda family's surprise attack."
"The third and most important thing is."
Imakawa Ryojin's eyes were ignited with a shuddering fire of hatred.
"Twenty years later, in Suruga, there will be a man from the Ming Dynasty who drifted here because of a shipwreck. His name is Uqiupei. His better known name is Uqiu Momiji. He is the strongest person in history, and there is no other.
1. Whether it is military strategy or political governance, he is so powerful that it is difficult to look directly at him. What is even more exaggerated is that he is actually a good person, the purest good person in the universal sense, and his kindness is unbelievable, like a holy son.
Pure. He has never done a bad thing in his life for decades, and his feathers are as white as snow. I really don’t know how he survived in this dirty and troubled world."
"But such a strong man who stands at the top of the world is the eternal sinner of the Imagawa family. It was he who caused the destruction of the Imagawa family and caused the direct descendants of the Imagawa family to embark on a path of no return... It was him."
"Yiyuan, remember this. If you are sure you can control him, use him, and he will win the world for you. But if it doesn't work, kill him immediately. Don't hesitate! Don't hesitate! Your child is about to die.
Born, right? If you want your bloodline to be passed on, if you don’t want your child’s descendants to be displaced and run around like rats, then kill him!”
"Ame Qiupei..." Imagawa Yoshimoto muttered this familiar name, but he couldn't remember when he heard it.
"Okay, I've finished what I want to say, now it's up to you to kill me." Imagawa Yoshizhin knelt down on the ground again, raised his neck to kill, and did not forget the last instruction, "After you kill me, close the door
Yutaka Furunoji and Nao Hayasaka were also killed. We cannot let anyone who knows that "Imagawa Yoshimoto personally killed Imagawa Yoshima" live in the world. Otherwise, you will suffer the same fate as me and become a thorn in the flesh of countless people.
, becoming a target that countless people would only dream of getting rid of.”
"Why……"
"Don't ask, idiot. The more you know, the more likely you are to be exposed and become a target. It's safer not to know anything!" Imagawa Yoshima yelled at Imagawa Yoshimoto.
"Then why must I kill you with my own hands?" Imagawa Yoshimoto swallowed, and the hand holding the handle of the knife trembled imperceptibly, "I am a monk. In the past 20 years, I have never killed anyone with my own hands, and I don't want to.
Dirty your hands."
"Don't ask any more questions!"
Imagawa Yoshimoto's tight-lippedness made Imagawa Yoshimoto confused again, but he did not ask any more questions - he knew that even if he asked, Imagawa Yoshimoto would not answer.
"Let's do it this way. If you really feel guilty and can't do it, I'll commit seppuku myself and you can help me to make up for it, right? As long as you make up the last blow yourself." Imagawa Yoshima took a long sigh and retreated.
After a while, he said, "With such a bodhisattva heart, how can I trust you to hand over the Imagawa family to you?"
"Okay." Imagawa Yoshimoto nodded, then reached into his arms to take out the ribs for seppuku.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Can you give me Ryumaru?" Imagawa Yoshima pointed to the heirloom sword on Imagawa Yoshimoto's waist.
"You want to commit seppuku with a samurai sword?" Imagawa Yoshimoto found it a bit unbelievable, "It doesn't fit the hand."
"Please, this is my last request. For the sake of your friendship with brother 'Imagawa Yoshima', please agree to it." Imagawa Yoshima bowed to the ground deeply and said sincerely.
Imagawa Yoshimoto couldn't refuse. So he took off the dragon pill and handed it to Imagawa Yoshima. He took out the Sozomoji and stood beside Imagawa Yoshima.
"Remember, just tell the outside world that I died in the fire in Yuanjiang. Don't tell others that you killed me with your own hands. You must also kill Yutaka Furuno and Nao Hayasaka, and don't let them.
Leaked the news that you personally executed me." Imagawa Yoshima took the trouble to give the last instruction, and Imagawa Yoshimoto just curled his lips in disbelief.
Imakawa Yoshima then took out Ryumaru and held the blade tightly with both hands, regardless of the fact that his palm was dripping with blood. It was as if he could feel the body temperature of countless generations of the Imagawa family, the will and glory passed down by countless generations from the cold blade. He
Slowly he cut Ryumaru into his belly and opened a horizontal incision. Enduring the severe pain, he struggled to say his last words:
"Imagawa family, please."
Yoshimoto, inherit my will and strength, live on, and protect the Imagawa family for me.
Imagawa Yoshimoto raised his sword and dropped it, thus ending Imakawa Yoshima's life.
I don’t know if it was because of the first murder, but Imagawa Yoshimoto felt dizzy, and waves of pain hit his head. He actually supported the wall and vomited. Then Furunoji Yutaka and Hayasaka Nao hurriedly broke into the door and found Imakawa.
Liangzhen had committed seppuku.
I don't know how long it took for Yoshimoto Imagawa to gradually regain his consciousness, but he felt a sharp pain in his head. After reacting, he found that he had been helped back to the castle tower by Nao Hayasaka and Yutaka Nakonoji.
"Seal the news and don't let anyone know that Imagawa Yoshizhin committed hara-kiri in the Imagawa Hall. Just maintain the Imagawa family's official statement, saying that he set himself on fire in Yuejiang. You two must also keep your mouth shut and don't leak even a little bit of news.
." Imagawa Yoshimoto warned the two of them. Although Hayasaka Nao and Na Furunoji Yutaka didn't know why, they nodded honestly.
"Your Highness, Madam has given birth!"
At this moment, excited shouts and a baby's cry came from upstairs. Imagawa Yoshimoto hurried upstairs and entered the delivery room despite the obstruction of the midwives. The weak Ginkgo was lying on the bed with his arms in his arms.
Holding the newly born little life - it was a boy, but he cried very loudly. His little hands were still unconscious, so they held on to the skirt of Ginkgo's clothes.
"What's going on, why are you relying on your mother to leave?" Imagawa Yoshimoto looked at the mother and son, and was moved to tears for a moment. He felt that everything in life was complete, but he still pretended to be strong and joked, "
Don’t become a weak crybaby from now on.”
"Then mommy will take care of you for the rest of her life, be good." Ginkgo's face was covered with sweat, and she almost fell asleep due to exhaustion, but she still held on to coax her child and murmured softly:
"You don't need to be a great warrior from now on, as long as you live happily, remember?"
