Haru Mibuchi really didn’t believe what Yoshigan said in the shogunate.
There is no reason for a boy to go to the battlefield to fight. The martial arts family has only produced one Ba Gozen for thousands of years. The injuries on his body were probably left when the family was exterminated, and he was also a poor child.
Thinking of Yiyin taking off his clothes when he disagreed with him in the shogunate, the veins on his forehead twitched.
How does this Yitong teach children how to marry after exposing their bodies at will?
Looking at Yiyin's handsome appearance and thinking about his figure shown in the shogunate, he couldn't help but nod.
This child has good assets. Since the Shiba family has been defeated, it is better to stay in Kyoto and find her a happy wife and concubine, which will be worthy of the long-term friendship with Yitong.
If Shiba Yoshigan was a female, Mibuchi Haru would never have such thoughts. The Wu family valued the family name above life, so no matter how the Shiba family fell, they had to grit their teeth and persevere.
But Yiyin is a handsome young man, and I feel pity for him. There is no need to ruin his life because of the fight between the Wu family. Why should a man be implicated in a woman's affairs?
Thinking of the promising Hime Samurai in the shogunate, my heart moved. She was a bloodline of the Hosokawa family, and his second daughter Fujitaka was adopted back to the Hosokawa family.
This Sibo Yiyin has a good appearance and figure, and he comes from a famous family. Rather than taking advantage of outsiders, it is better to leave it to his own daughter.
Thinking about it, the eyes he looked at Yiyin became more appreciative and kind.
Yoshigan didn't know that Mibuchi Haru had already designated him as his second son-in-law, and was still thinking about the Rokkaku War in his mind.
It was an unreasonable disaster. If he hadn't understood the rules, he wouldn't have been punished by the general for going to help in the battle.
It's too late to say anything now. Lord Kokata's words are hard to follow. Moreover, Owari's guardianship has been rewarded. If he refuses now, Nobunaga will not let him go if he loses his guardianship.
I only blame myself for being stupid.
There's no point in bribing an official to get an official position with such arrogance. Don't you know the word behind-the-scenes operation? It's such a shame for a modern person! I've already resigned myself to my fate. Come on, let's go to war.
"Lord Mibuchi, I'm going to Omi. But please plead with Lord Gongfang on my behalf and grant me an object."
"Well? What do you want?"
Although he didn’t understand what Yoshigan needed to bring with him to be a mascot, Mibuchi Haru, who became more and more pleased with Yoshigan the more he saw him, did not refuse.
"I want a white flag."
Mibuchi Haru was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, he was right. Swords have no eyes on the battlefield. If you encounter a reckless man who doesn't know that you represent the Ashikaga family, it would be unfair to kill him first and then kill him.
But with the Ashikaga White Flag around, as long as the Hime Samurai is not blind, he will think carefully before taking action. As expected of the Shiba family who have been puppets in Owari for many years, they are thoughtful.
"This is no problem, I'll take care of it."
Yoshigan was overjoyed. Although there was an accident during this recent trip and he had to fight in battle, it would be good to get an Ashikaga white flag back.
Since ancient times, the Minamoto family has regarded white flags as their symbol, and the Minamoto martial arts family has used white flags as their objects. The most famous one is the three Minamoto family white flags.
The first one is the imperial white flag used by the ancestor of the Genji clan, Hachiman Taro, when he conquered Kanto and expelled the Ezo people.
The second side is the imperial white flag used by the first shogunate Minamoto no Yoritomo when he raised his troops to fight the Genpei War with the Taira clan.
The third side is the imperial white flag used by Ashikaga Shogun Takauji to raise his troops.
At first, Ashikaga Takauji confronted the imperial court, and the war was not going well, so he fled to Kyushu Island alone.
With the title of the elder of the Genji family and the pillar of the samurai family, he holds the imperial white flag. With just one person and one horse, he can gather 80,000 imperial family members in a few months. Those are all Hime warriors! Hundreds of thousands of people went out to the Western Kingdom to conquer the Ashikaga world.
These three royal white flags are the treasures of the samurai family, and of course they cannot be touched lightly. What Yoshigoshi seeks is the white flag given to his subjects by the Ashikaga family to conquer all directions.
In ancient China, the emperor centralized power, and generals relied on the tiger charms given by the emperor as evidence to mobilize troops and horses.
But here is a feudal system, and each samurai family has its own troops and horses. However, sending troops to fight still needs to have a basis, and the Ashikaga White Flag is the status given by the Ashikaga family.
Not to mention other samurai families, the Shiba family was the most powerful when Takasune Shiba and Yoshitsho Shiba were the mother and daughter. They fought with the white flag one after another and laid down the two rich territories of Echizen and Owari, creating the foundation of the Shiba family.
Now the Ashikaga family is in decline, but the Ashikaga shogun's reputation is still there, and the white flag is not something given casually.
Fortunately, Yoshiun was a man, so there was no serious threat. Moreover, he was forced to go to the battlefield by the general out of anger. He asked for a white flag to protect himself. Mibuchi Haru asked himself that he was still confident.
After all was said and done, Mibuchi Haru let Yoshiyin live in the mansion.
Kyoto is big and not easy to live in. Yiyin is also happy to live here, saving a lot of room and board expenses, and it can also maintain the relationship between the Shiba family in Kyoto.
Because he is a boy, his mother had never told him about this before. Now that he has a family friend like Mibuchi Haru, it is time to sort it out. This will be what he can rely on in the future.
"Your mother and I have been friends since childhood. From now on, just call me aunt, and Master Sanyuan will listen to you."
After glaring at Yoshigan for the last time, Mibuchi Haru went back to the palace to ask for a white flag on Yoshigan's behalf. The war was imminent, so it was always a good idea to prepare early.
In the imperial palace, Ashikaga Yoshiteru had dismissed the shogunate's discussions, leaving only Wada Weimasa to discuss.
Although Yoshigami was so angry before that he made the decision impulsively, looking back, Ashikaga Yoshiteru felt that it was indeed a good idea.
The Rokkaku family wanted to force the general to join their side and board their pirate ship. The Ashikaga family wanted to refuse but were worried about Miyoshi's invasion. For the time being, they still needed to hold on to the powerful samurai family, the Rokkaku family.
It would be a good idea to send Shiba Yiyin to fill the scene. The Shiba family is one of the famous three leaders, and Yiyin is the only bloodline in the family.
Sending him out at least shows that the shogunate is on the side of the Rokkaku family, and the Rokkaku family can't say anything.
And Shiba Yiyin is just a teenager. In this world, girls are valued over boys, and it is difficult for a man to explain anything.
The Asai family did not want to stand on the opposite side of the shogun and were too passive in politics, so they would never over-interpret the situation. Instead, they understood the Ashikaga family's unwillingness to intervene.
From this point of view, although Yiyin's participation in the battle could not satisfy either Rokkaku or Asai, it did not offend any of them. It was a good move.
Wada Weimasa also agrees with Ashikaga Yoshiteru's idea, and the two of them are finalizing the details, and then she will go to the Rokkaku family as an envoy to convey the general's decision.
At this time, member Sanbuchi Haru asked to see him.
"How should I put it? Has that young man realized his mistake?"
Because the problem was solved well, Ashikaga Yoshiteru was not as depressed as before and his speech became much softer.
Mibuchi Haru clearly felt this and nodded in agreement.
"I took him back to the mansion and scolded him severely. He realized his Meng Lang and regretted it endlessly. Before I came, he even begged me to intercede with the Lord Gongfang."
"Hahahaha, this bastard. Forget it, as long as he does his job well, forget it."
Although I don't think Yoshiki is as soft-spoken as Mibuchi Haru said, it sounds comfortable to me, and Ashikaga Yoshiteru doesn't want to argue with a little man.
Thinking back on this little man's figure, I never thought that a man could have six-pack abs. It's really... bah, bah, unruly.
Ashikaga Yoshiki sat upright, showing no anger or authority.
