In 1555 AD, which was the beginning of the 24th year of Astronomy, in the castle tower of Kasugayama Castle, Nagao Kagetora, wearing a woolen robe, sat cross-legged. Opposite him sat Kira Yoshitoki and Nagao Kagetora, talking about this with smiles on their faces. Interesting things from the past year. The wind disease that troubled Nagao Kagetora has been cured. No matter he walks, sits or lies, eats or talks, or rides a horse or shoots an arrow, he is not affected in any way. Such a complete recovery is beyond the expectations of Mamoru Naose, and Nagata Tokumoto also believes that this is a god. Despite the blessing, the two doctors still asked him to maintain good eating and rest habits. "During the year of training at Yuzawa Imperial Palace, my body and mind felt more relaxed than ever before I have never felt so relaxed since I was a child. The burden of family business and the expectations of retainers are all removed from my mind. Every day Acupuncture and massage, doing rehabilitation exercises, reading "The Rise and Fall of Genpei" and "Taipei Chronicles" in my spare time, and Mr. Nagata debating the true meaning of Buddhism while soaking in hot springs. This kind of life makes me feel comfortable and relaxed. " The boy and the girl added in unison. Said: "Only sake cannot be touched." "Yes! Only sake cannot be touched." Nagao Kagetora shook his head and laughed. He could no longer touch sake in this life, no matter the retainers, the clan, or the young people in front of him. , will not allow him to touch even a drop of alcohol. After laughing, he changed to sighing: "I can never drink again! What a great regret in life!" "It doesn't matter if I don't drink, brother, it was really scary that time! We all won't be able to stand it if we do it again!" Torahime pouted to express her dissatisfaction with her brother's nostalgia. "Okay, let's not talk about this How is Kunimatsu's condition? I heard that he is sick again?" Speaking of his little nephew, Nagao Yoshikage, who just entered the Yuan Dynasty this year. Nagao Kagetora showed a worried expression. Since the summer plague broke out. Guosong also got sick for some reason. The condition was up and down, which made people worried. The illness lasted for several months, which made Nagao Aya worried. So she took this single seedling to Naoetsu to seek treatment from Nagata Tokumoto without any scruples. The Ueda Nagao family had such a single seedling, and everything was in trouble. Once he gets into trouble, Nagao Aya will definitely not be able to bear it. "Mr. Nagata is treating Kunimatsu. Judging from the current situation, there shouldn't be much of a problem!" Kira Yoshi was a little unsure. He didn't remember that Nagao Masaki had this eldest son. I only knew that there would be a son in his family who became Nagao Kagetora's adopted son, who would later become Uesugi Kagekatsu. "Masakai happens to be in Kasugayama Castle too, so let my sister reunite with him! It's important to give birth to a son as soon as possible." Nagao Kagetora is still worried about Nagao Masaki's betrayal, so he has been keeping him in Kasugayama Castle for the past few years. , the other party has been working hard without complaint and has no other ideas. Torahime glanced at Kiragishi and when he saw his affirmative expression, she said, "Brother, the king should be returned to you! Torahime really doesn't know how to do anything. Every time she holds an evaluation meeting with an empty head, It¡¯s all up to His Highness!¡± ¡°I have gone into seclusion and have no plans to come back.¡± Nagao Kagetora just shook his head in denial. "Brother, please listen to me. I have found many problems in controlling Echigo this year. The system of the Kira family is different from that of the Nagao family. The two sides are still clearly incompatible. The samurai of Echigo also have great expectations for brother. It's clear! So I think it's best for my brother to come back and lead Echigo!" "Let's talk about it later!" Nagao Kagetora still didn't want to talk about this topic, and said with a smile: "My illness has delayed you. My brother is really incompetent at the wedding ceremony! Have you set a date? "It's set, March 16th is a beautiful day in spring!" The two looked at each other shyly. Hiding behind him, Kira Yoshi could only smile helplessly, grabbed Torahime's little hand and joked: "I just think of shyness now, what were you thinking about just now?" "Your Highness!" The girl buried her head shyly and didn't look at him. , the two grown men laughed in unison, which made the girl blush and show her little fangs and threaten: "Don't laugh at me! If you laugh again, I will get angry!" "If you don't laugh, don't laugh! Hehehehe " "The Takeda family has been having a really gloomy new year this New Year. A lot of families and generations have died, and a large area of ??territory has been lost, which can be said to be a great loss of vitality. The Takeda family can only secretly sigh at their bad luck, watching the bad luck in the past few years. The Hojo family suddenly rose to prominence, driving Kensei Uesugi from Hirai Castle like a bereaved dog hiding in hiding, and he couldn't help but feel envious in his heart. Imai Nobuo was particularly active today and spoke for the third time: "My lord! We can't fight Kitashinano anymore! At least in the past few years, we can't touch it anymore!" Komai Masatake asked in return: "But what should we do about the crisis in Xiaozhen County? ?" "Sanada Yukitaka of the Shinano Senfazhong is the leader. From my point of view, he will definitely fight for his own land, right?" Iitomi Tomasa followed up. "Relying entirely on the people of Shinano? I don't think this is right."??Yeah! "Nagasaka Mitsuken shook his head in denial. "Then what do you think we should do? "A group of retainers started to quarrel, which gave Takeda Harunobu a headache. Every time he encountered a disagreement, the retainers would quarrel. He suddenly understood why his father always wanted to kill Gendai in the first place. They were really a group of troublesome guys. In the past few months, he has been recuperating in Yuya Hot Spring. This hot spring is a health resort discovered during the time of his father Nobutora Takeda. There are Yamashiozawaji Temple and Senzuka Hachiman Shrine nearby. There is a beacon tower on the mountain. It is quiet and peaceful in the mountain forest. This is where he can completely relax. This is the health resort he has visited most since he was a child. The asthma that has always bothered him requires frequent treatment, and he has gradually fallen in love with the habit of soaking in hot springs. Still not knowing how to restrain himself, Takeda Harunobu could only shout: "Hold on! Gentlemen, please stop arguing! Listen to what I have to say! Kitano Shinano can¡¯t give up! " "ah? "Some retainers made an uproar, which made Takeda Harunobu frown in dissatisfaction, and then smiled and said: "Sanada Danzheng is serving as the leader of the Shinano Front Army and is responsible for the mission of recapturing Northern Shinano. Nobushige will lead the Wukawa Army and sit in Saku County to be responsible for support! " Komai Masatake thought for a moment and asked: "So what is the direction of our future strategy? Could it be Nishi Ueno? " "right! It¡¯s Nishi Ueno! Not only Nishi Ueno, but also Hida! We thought hard for a hundred days and decided to continue expanding! Kai is so poor! Shinano and Ueno were severely affected, so it¡¯s a good time for us to attack Ueno! "When mentioning last year's drought, the corner of Takeda Harunobu's mouth twitched. "Shinano's grain production has been severely reduced, and many villages are facing the crisis of no harvest. With the arrival of the difficult winter, farmers without winter reserves are increasingly inclined to flee famine, but the Takeda family has not The Hojo family is good at retaining people. Although the drought in Kai is relatively mild, the grain production has generally been reduced by 20%. The local food is not enough to eat. How can we help the farmers in Shinano? The entire Kai is 240,000 koku? , the grain he received was less than 200,000 shi, but he had to feed nearly 200,000 people and 78,000 or 8,000 military families. This pressure was like a mountain pressing on his head, making him breathless. If he expands, he will have to starve and freeze for the rest of his life. He is not willing to accept it! "There is something wrong with those new grains!" Potatoes yield three stones, corn yields one and a half stones, and pumpkins yield one and a half stones. Except for potatoes, which are not bad, everything else has serious problems! Is it" Atobe Nobuaki's eyes glanced at Daxiong Chaohide in the corner. "No! These grains have been inspected and there is no problem, and we believe that Daekuma Bizenmori will not deceive us. "Takeda Harunobu said to Daokuma Chaohide in the corner: "Bizen Mamoru will definitely live up to our family's expectations, right? " Daxiong Chaoxiu quickly bowed: "No, no! There is absolutely no problem with the grains that I brought with me! "The news of the Takeda family's defeat in one battle quickly spread to Kanto. The Takeda family who had doubts about the Kira family's choice of Echigo country, which was far away from the mountains, all changed their stance and unanimously praised the Kira family as worthy of being the famous generals of the shogunate, and the Imagawa family. The envoy also visited Kasugayama Castle for the first time in a few years and presented a luxurious New Year gift: three famous knives, ten good horses, two thousand pieces of rabbit skins, fox skins, bear skins, etc., and two hundred lacquerware. There were a lot of tea, matsutake, tangerines and other specialties. The messenger of the Imagawa family was an old acquaintance, Sekiguchi Okinaga, who had become fatter and wider after not seeing each other for several years. He said with a smile: "My lord learned that Nagao Danzhonden is seriously ill. At the beginning of recovery, I specially prepared twenty branches of mountain ginseng and two loads of various medicinal materials. I wish Changwei Tanzhengdian good health! " "Thank you for your trouble, Imagawajibuden. "Nagao Kagetora's tone was calm and natural, without the slightest sense of joy. "Experiencing a serious illness made him understand many Zen principles. Now he never leaves his hand with prayer beads. When he is free, he sits quietly and meditates. He leads the army and governs national affairs all year round, which makes him naturally spread out. There is a unique sense of majesty, and now the calm and solemn appearance makes people feel more fearful. Sekiguchi is indeed an experienced diplomat. His expression remains unchanged and he continues to say: "Today we will fight in the Wuwei Palace." The wealthy family of half the country in Shengzhen Fuxinano, their power is enviable! My lord has specially ordered me to escort Her Royal Highness the Princess here to fulfill the engagement made that day! " A certain loli who was just playing puppet with her head suddenly came to life, her ears twitched and asked: "What princess? What engagement? " "The princess is my lord's adopted daughter, Princess Naoto, and the marriage contract is the marriage contract my lord made with Wu Weidian on that day" "Nani? Why don't I know? "A certain big cat suddenly showed off its feminine power. Its big, round almond-shaped eyes were full of murderous intent. It locked onto Kira Yoshi's head and burst out with powerful intimidation: "Your Highness! There must be something to say, right? There must be some, right? Um? " "Um" Ji Liangyi was so shocked by this question that he almost jumped up and asked Guan at a loss.Ichigo Yong winked, and the other party greeted him with a smile as if he didn't understand it at all. He cursed secretly and could only bite the bullet and said: "This is actually it is actually a marriage contract it's true. ! But" "But His Highness agreed, right?" A tic-tac-toe appeared on the head of a certain lolita, raising a small fist and threatening him: "Why did Your Highness never say" "Ahem. ! Torahime should stop it!" Nagao Kagetora couldn't stand it anymore and stood up and said, "That's it! Please go to Sekiguchi Hall and leave the rest to the retainers!" (To be continued, please search!
