Chapter 1701 There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm my daughter
Monk Miaoyin sighed in his heart, Mr. Kaifei is worthy of being the child favored by the saint. At such a young age, he went into battle for the first time, and he was already so terrifying.
It would be great if Kai-kun were a girl. The future of the Yura-Narita family might be even brighter.
But the current situation is actually not bad. The saint himself is a man. The better Kai-kun performs, the more likely he is to please the saint.
After this battle, Kai-kun is a holy family member with great military exploits. Even if he marries Uesugi Kagetora in the future, he will not be weak and suffer a disadvantage, which is a good thing for the Yura family.
I just pity Uesugi Kagetora, I wonder if she can handle this male tiger in the family. Life after marriage will not be easy.
Monk Miaoyin was thinking wildly, but he didn't know that Uesugi Kagetora was sitting on pins and needles in the palace these days, and his life was not easy.
If she could go out to join the feudal clan, escape from the current embarrassing situation, and let Uesugi Kagetora marry a male tiger, she would be willing to do so.
During the ten days of war in Shimo-sou Kingdom, the whole land of Kanshu was not at peace. Each Uesugi, Takeda and Hojo family had its own internal conflicts, which affected the dispatch of troops.
———
Echigo Imperial Palace is located at the foot of Kasugayama Mountain, not far from Kasugayama Castle.
At that time, Uesugi Kenshin dedicated the imperial palace to Shiba Yoshigan, with the secret intention of hiding the beauty in the gold house.
But things are fickle. In the end, because of Yoshigan Shiba's unimaginable talent, the Imperial Palace became the government hall of Echigo's dual-headed politics, and even the political discussion venue of the Kanto Palace was also placed here.
Today, Uesugi Kenshin has given up his obsession with monopolizing Shiba Yiyin and has begun to think about his daughter's future.
She cried and ran away from Kasugayama Castle, Shiba Yoshigan, and finally managed to seize the leadership of this major review, thinking that she could defeat the Takeda and Hojo families and confirm the Uesugi family's second position in Kanto.
However, Satake Yoshige led the people from the East to rebel, and Shiba Yoshigan fell into the country's crisis and refused to avoid it.
Being restrained by Uesugi Kenshin and forced to prepare for compromise, the ladies of the Kanto Palace suddenly found a breakthrough.
On the pretext of rescuing the saint, Takeda Hojo and others jumped out of Uesugi Kenshin's suppression and forced Uesugi Kenshin to express his attitude.
With his love for Shiba Yoshigan hidden in his heart, Uesugi Kenshin finally chose to compromise, and therefore lost the best opportunity to suppress the Takeda and Hojo families.
The grand review was abandoned halfway, and the United Front members went back to their respective mobilizations, eager to go to Shimonoseki to rescue the saint, and Uesugi Kenshin was no exception.
But before leaving Echigo Country, Uesugi Kenshin had to solve one problem, and that was the safety of Uesugi Miyuki.
The journey was difficult and ever-changing. It was impossible for Uesugi Kenshin to take his daughter who was less than two years old and travel thousands of miles to the battlefield.
Although Uesugi Kenshin didn't think anyone would dare to attack Shiba Yoshigan's child, Uesugi Miyuki was a piece of her heart and she couldn't be too careful.
In the imperial palace, Uesugi Kenshin stepped down from the throne, carefully carried the child to Honjo Sano, and said solemnly.
"I'm going to the boss now. It's inconvenient to take Miyuki with me, so I'd like to ask the boss to take care of my children for a few days."
Honjo Sano once taught Uesugi Kenshin, and his relationship with her was half teacher and half friend, very close and deeply trusting.
Every time Uesugi Kenshin went on an expedition, the base area of Shimotsu would be handed over to the care of Honjo Mino, and she would be appointed as the castle representative of Kasugayama Castle, and this time was no exception.
But only this time, I was really walking on thin ice, holding the child like a fragile piece of porcelain, and my heart was in a state of confusion.
Behind Honjo Sano, two half-year-old girls, Uesugi Kagetora and Uesugi Kagekatsu, were kneeling, which further indicated that today's meeting was unusual.
Uesugi Kagetora and Uesugi Kagekatsu are still young, but they have already become warrior warriors early in life, and each has its own difficulties.
The real family behind Uesugi Kagetora is the Hojo family. She is actually Hojo Ujiyasu's youngest daughter. She was captured by the Uesugi army in the Kanto strategy and was adopted as a political bargaining chip by Uesugi Kenshin as an adopted daughter.
If it hadn't been for Yoshigan Shiba's compassion and recognition of her as his adopted daughter, she, an adopted daughter who was not valued by Uesugi Kenshin, might have been secretly killed long ago.
In Echigo, not only Uesugi Kensei and Hojo Ujiyasu had a grudge against the family, but other forces also found it difficult to accept that an adopted daughter with Hojo blood had the theoretical right to inherit the Uesugi family.
Moreover, after Hojo Ushimasa and Uesugi Kenshin reached an alliance with each other and turned against Takeda Shingen, he also sent his retainers north to Echigo Kingdom to follow His Highness Uesugi Kagetora.
This move of the Hojo family aroused the fear of the Echigo samurai family, fearing that the Uesugi family property would be usurped by the Hojo family.
This concern has led to the issue of Uesugi Kagekatsu's inheritance rights.
Uesugi Kagekatsu's mother, Uesugi Masakei, was beaten to death by Uesugi Kenshin because she opposed Uesugi Kenshin's pursuit of Shiba Yoshigan. She ended up miserable.
But in order to appease his family members, Uesugi Kenshin was kind to Uesugi Kagekatsu. Not only did he let her inherit the Ueda Nagao family, but he also gave her the name Uesugi Miao.
Uesugi Kagekatsu is the child of Nagao Masaki and Uesugi Kenshin's elder brother. In theory, he is the sect closest to Uesugi Kenshin in blood.
As the adopted daughter of Uesugi Kenshin, Uesugi Kagetora's inheritance rights should take precedence over Uesugi Kagekatsu's family, but the Uesugi retainers group did not think so.
The Echigo samurai group rejected Uesugi Kagetora, who was from the Hojo family, and preferred Uesugi Kagekatsu, a native of their own.
Especially the Nagao clan, which belongs to Uesugi Kenshin's family, Kamijou, Furushi, Ueda and other Nagao families are all close to Uesugi Kiseki.
This undercurrent of inheritance issues was completely resolved when Uesugi Kenshin gave birth to Shiba Yoshigan's child.
As the Shiba family became more and more powerful, the Uesugi family also experienced a psychological journey.
Previously, the Uesugi retainers were worried that Yoshihiro Shiba was too powerful and would turn against the foreigners and seize the Uesugi family's Echigo country.
But now, Shiba Yoshigan's power has gone too far, to the point where the entire Kanba Prefecture has surrendered, and to the point where the center of the Kinki Shogunate is kneeling down.
The Uesugi retainers group, in turn, began to worry about whether Shiba Yoshigan would eat alone, and refused to continue bringing the Uesugi family to play with them.
Uesugi Kenshin gave birth to a divine descendant with the blood of Shiba Yigin, which was a great thing that the Uesugi retainers were happy to hear.
As for Uesugi Kagetora and Uesugi Kagekatsu, they became tool men who lost their value and were left aside and ignored.
But others ignored him, but Ken Uesugi was clear in his heart.
If someone really wanted to harm his daughter, no matter whether it was instigated by Uesugi Kagetora and Uesugi Kagekatsu or not, they would definitely be the beneficiaries of his daughter's death and would have to guard against it.
Handing Uesugi Miyuki to Honjo Mino, Uesugi Kenshin looked at Uesugi Kagetora with a smile and said.
"Kagetora, your adoptive father has arranged a marriage for you. The other party is the son of the Narita family and the grandson of the Yura family. What do you think?"
Uesugi Kagetora fell to the ground and kowtowed.
"It all depends on my mother and adoptive father!"
Uesugi Kenshin shook his head and sighed.
"That's your future husband, and you don't care about his personality or appearance at all?"
Uesugi Kagetora straightened up and said sincerely.
"My adoptive father is very kind to me, and my mother is very kind to me. Your decision must be for my good, so why should I worry too much."
Uesugi Kenshin nodded.
"The kindness is profound and the meaning is profound, well said.
To be rewarded by the public and to repay the favor is the moral principle of Warrior Ji, and it is the bottom line of duty as a martial artist.
It is because there are too many ungrateful people in this world that the world is in chaos and the world is uneasy.
Fortunately, you are not this kind of person."
Uesugi Kagetora heard sweat on his head and kowtowed again.
"Jingtora will never forget his kindness in this life, and he will be loyal to his mother and his adoptive father! The child of his mother and his adoptive father will be my future master, and I will serve him throughout my life!"
Uesugi Kenshin laughed, pointed at Uesugi Kagetora and sighed.
"You, you, you just think too much. I just wanted to chat with you about some family matters, so why did you turn to this child Miyuki?
Miyuki is less than two years old, and I just hope that you, as my sister, can love her and love her. The child is still young, so there is no way to tell his future conduct and ability, so there is no rush to talk about the future.
But...if she can be helpful in the future, you can help me, and if she becomes useless in the future, you can take her place."
Uesugi Kenshin's seemingly sincere words made Uesugi Kagetora turn pale in fright, and he kowtowed twice, making the tatami rattle.
"What are you saying, mother! My sister is the child of you and your adoptive father. The blood of you two is indescribable. My sister is precocious and intelligent, and everyone can see it!
The future of the Uesugi family must belong to my sister! If anyone dares to have any thoughts that they shouldn’t have, I will cut them into pieces and cut them into pieces!"
Seeing Uesugi Kagetora's fierce words, Uesugi Kenshin's expression was very moved and he nodded repeatedly.
"If you two sisters can be like each other and have no bad feelings, I can still rest in peace even if I die right now."
Uesugi Kagetora was so frightened that Uesugi Kenshin said "die" and fell to the ground. Honjo Mino couldn't stand it.
After all, Honjo Mino was assigned to be Uesugi Kagetora's teacher, so there was still a teacher-student relationship. But she didn't dare to ask Honjo Mino to speak for Uesugi Kagetora at this time.
Uesugi Miyuki is the counter scale of Uesugi Kenshin, the Echigo dragon. Uesugi Kenshin seems to be a troublemaker now and always wants to harm my daughter. Normal people can't reason with this stubborn mother-in-law.
Honjo is too talkative, he will only get himself into trouble, and he will not be able to help Uesugi Kagetora get out of trouble.
Fortunately, Uesugi Kagetora is smart. No matter how hard Uesugi Kenshin tries to persuade him, he doesn't say a single ambiguous word. He always stands firm and says the right thing.
Her performance finally made Uesugi Kenshin a little satisfied and relieved.
Patting Uesugi Kagetora's back that couldn't straighten up, Uesugi Kenshin looked at Uesugi Kagekatsu who was kneeling on the other side with a smile.
Kagekatsu Uesugi suddenly broke out in sweat, and his legs were so frightened that they became weak.
