Nagano Yamasa was finally moved when he heard Kamiizumi Nobutsuna mentioning his second daughter.
Her biggest trouble is that her eldest daughter was killed in the battle at Kagotsu Night. Now that she is old, she is not sure whether her second daughter Nagano Yamori can stabilize the situation after her death.
As Nobutsuna Kamiizumi said, Nagano Yoshimori was not short of bravery, but in these troubled times, fighting for his life is not enough.
Kanto has been in chaos for more than a hundred years, and the only ones who survived were the turtle bastards who gave birth to daughters without eyelashes. If there were any honest people who were more particular about it, their entire family would have died long ago.
Here, being a coward between Qin and Mu Chu is not a derogatory term, but a survival skill that must be mastered.
Nagano Yasumasa was an excellent Ji Samurai, but he was not a cunning samurai who could maintain the family business. This was Nagano Yasumasa's biggest worry as a mother.
If only Nagano Yap could be twenty years younger, Kohata Nobuzada's petty thoughts would be nothing more than a joke, and he would be slapped away with a casual slap.
Now this little thing can make him feel uneasy, just because she is old. He is afraid that if he closes his eyes one night and cannot open them again, his daughter will not be able to support the family business.
Nagano Ye was sighing.
"The only one who knows what's on my mind is you, old guy. Don't keep saying things that block your mind, and give me some advice."
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna said with a solemn expression.
"Old friend, have you ever heard a saying: Ji will not let me down, and I will not let Ji down."
Nagano Yasumasa narrowed his eyes.
"Shiba Kenshin?"
"Exactly."
Nagano was looking at Nobutsuna Kamizumi without saying anything. At this time, she really doubted whether this old friend had been invited to be a lobbyist.
Seeing her like this, Kamiizumi Nobutsuna straightened his face and rolled his eyes, his eyes shining brightly.
"Why, are you doubting me? Good intentions are not rewarded, so I shouldn't talk nonsense to you!"
It is always said that old people are like children. When they get older, their tempers are no different from those of children. They especially cannot tolerate being wronged or suspected by others.
Ueizumi Nobutsuna spent time with the general in Kyoto. Even when he went to Kanto with Yoshigan Shiba and Teru Uesugi, he was polite and courteous along the way and was never looked down upon.
She has no interest in the Kanto parties. Out of years of friendship, she was willing to give up a few words today, but Nagano Ye turned her into an ulterior motive. She couldn't bear it anymore.
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna angrily tried to leave, but Nagano Yamasa grabbed him by the sleeve.
"Don't be angry, Nobutsuna-hime, it's not like I was wrong.
I have also heard the legend about the strange man of the Shiba family who rebuilt the family business single-handedly. But is he really as benevolent and righteous as the rumors say?
These are troubled times, and life is not easy for Ji Ji, who upholds justice.
If he just uses false feelings to deceive the world, you know, I really can't afford to bet."
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna was still angry and turned around to give her a disdainful look.
"You have always lived in Baoshan and don't know the fragrance of orchids. You have deceived me in Guandong for a long time. I don't believe that there are still martial arts in this world who uphold justice.
I can personally guarantee that the righteousness of being modest, trustworthy and public is by no means a fake moral act to show to others. He is a truly benevolent and righteous king who insists on his own.
As for what you said about no good people in troubled times, that’s because you have no ability!
Since Lord Qianxin went out into battle, he has been victorious in every battle and conquered every attack. He is so powerful that he can turn the tide before it falls and help the building before it collapses. He is unparalleled in the world.
To say something arrogant. If it hadn’t been for him, it’s still unclear whether the general or Miyoshi Nagakei had the final say in the Kyoto shogunate today.”
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna criticized Nagano Yamasa for a few words. Seeing that she was listening silently, her anger gradually dropped, and she spoke seriously to her old friend.
"Gong Qianxin is unparalleled in his magnificence, but he doesn't look like a famous figure in the martial arts family at all. He is too kind.
After all, he is a man and cannot be as ruthless as a woman in many things. No matter how brave he is on the battlefield, he will be soft-hearted off the battlefield.
I'm not just talking to you, I have traveled around the world for so many years and I have never seen such a strange and heroic figure.
I observed him for a long time in Kyoto and Hokurikudo, and I can only say that what he did was to pity the world and harm himself, which was indeed a sincere act of kindness.
What I admire the most is his way of doing things by never giving up on his companions.
Ye Zhengji, today I don’t think you are Your Highness Nagano, but as a friend.
In troubled times, people are unpredictable, and you should not easily entrust your family business to outsiders. But if you have no choice, Qianxin Gong is your best choice.
People, being cruel to others is not your ability. Being cruel to yourself and being kind to others is your real ability.
This current imperial minister may not be able to lead your heirs to great success, but he will never abandon his partners, subordinates, and allies.
People who are kind, righteous, and keep their promises are worthy of entrusting their children with the family fortune."
Ueizumi Nobutsuna finished speaking in one breath and took a few breaths. Seeing that Nagano Yamasa still didn't express his position, she got up and left. This time, she had decided to go, and Nagano Yasumasa was unable to hold her back.
Nagano Yasumasa knew that Kamiizumi Nobutsuna had fulfilled his friendship as a friend for many years by saying this.
No matter what she chooses in the future, she will never say another word unless she asks her to come forward and make the connection.
Nagano Yasumasa was also puzzled. Is Kenshin-Koshi Shiba, the current fiancé of Ashikaga General, really so good?
Ueizumi Nobutsuna praised him as a moral model who could not survive in troubled times.
Even if Nagano Yasumasa no longer believed in Kamizumi Nobutsuna's character, he could not decide the future of the Nagano family in Minawa Castle based on her words.
She looked at the bright summer sun, which was getting hotter and brighter, and sighed.
Is Shiba Yiyin really benevolent or just acting? During the Kanto strategy, she always had the opportunity to take a closer look.
Kamizumi Nobutsuna walked out of the atrium angrily, his heart full of disappointment for Nagano Yamasa.
Indecisiveness leads to disaster.
Now that the strategy of conquering Kantō is imminent, it is an excellent opportunity to provide help in times of need. The Kantō plains sent fellow tribesmen of the Shino clan to Iwaki Castle with the idea of gaining a firm foothold in Ueno.
If Nagano Yamasa had decisively bowed his head and turned to Shiba Yoshigan, not only Shiba Yoshigan would be grateful, but Uesugi Teruhora would also feel relieved.
Minawa Castle surrendered to the Kanto Palace, which made Terutora Uesugi feel more at ease than wandering between the Hojo and Uesugi families.
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna had good intentions for Nagano Yamasa, but after all, this man was old and decrepit, and was far less wise and decisive than before.
The Nagano family in Minawa City has a great business, and Nagano Yasheng has a great reputation. For her to seek refuge with a man, who is still a young man whose hair may not even be fully grown, she will not be able to lose face.
He obviously occupies an embarrassing place and can only do shameless things, but he still wants to be a shameless person. This is leaving trouble for his descendants.
Kamiizumi Nobutsuna sighed, "The flowers bloom indefinitely, the sun waxes and wanes, and the moon waxes and wanes."
The Nagano family in Minawa Castle was prosperous and then in decline. I wonder who will benefit from this geomantic treasure land of Nishi Ueno after this change.
