Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    On the first day of the eleventh month of the first year of Yonglu, Suihede, Yuehede, Huoyao, Minri, Mingbaruidui, Tiangui, and Yutang are suitable for accepting gifts, making alliances, offering sacrifices, praying for blessings, seeking heirs, fasting, and bathing.  After the consecration and receiving the money, Kira Yoshi stood pacing back and forth outside the Kasuga Imperial Palace. He frowned and lingered here for nearly two hours.  This was the first time in many years that he was so uneasy. Even when he left Mikawa and embarked on the uncertain road to Kamikawa, he had never been so panicked again. Whether he was facing the powerful Suruga hero Imagawa Yoshimoto in Mikawa or the overlord of Kinai in Kyoto  Miyoshi Nagakei, Shinano's Tiger of Kai, Takeda Shingen, and Ueno's Sagami Lion, Hojo Ujiyasu, could not shake his iron will.  As he gets older, Kira Yoshitoki's temperament becomes more and more calm. It is difficult to see the true expression on his face. Unless there is a big change, he will show his emotions and anger. But anyone who is in a high position must have a strong heart.  In the past, he was proud of his qi-nurturing skills so that he was never in a hurry during the Battle of Kawanakajima. However, when it came to such an important matter as his wife giving birth to a child, he still couldn't control the irritability in his heart and clenched his fists anxiously.  pacing and wandering.  At this moment, the inside and outside of the Kasuga Imperial Palace have been completely sealed off by the Hime Samurai and Kunoichi. Since this morning, Kasugayama Castle has been under martial law, and the castle town of Naoetsu has been closed for one day. Senior monks from Myokakuji Temple, Gochi Kokubunji Temple, and Echigo Zenkoji Temple have gathered in Kasugayama Castle.  , most of the shrine officials brought witches to pray for blessings, and the entire Kasuga Mountain City felt like it was facing a powerful enemy.  Hu Ji's due date had arrived as early as the middle of last month, but it had been delayed for nearly half a month before she suddenly experienced redness and labor pains. During the morning meal, Hu Ji was fine, and even mentioned to him that the baby in her belly was so naughty but didn't want to  come out.  Ji Liangyi ordered him to rest well in the imperial palace.  As a result, it wasn't even past midnight.  The maid came and told him that he was about to give birth.  Standing outside the heavily surrounded imperial palace, he could still hear the occasional screams of pain from the delivery room. The familiar painful moans made him very worried. Qu Naoze Moruma and a young man brought him a bowl of calming soup and handed it to him.  , said softly: "Master, don't worry, there are three of the best midwives in Echigo, as well as the Korean red ginseng soup and Xingshenxiang carefully prepared by the master. I will definitely give birth to the baby safely." "I understandI  Understood." Ji Liangyi waved his hand and did not take the soup bowl.  He couldn't help but couldn't stop the water and rice from entering in two hours. He couldn't help but continue to pace. He naturally knew that after ten months of preparation, it must be foolproof, but there were some things that made him sit up and down nervously even if he knew this.  Ning, people who are about to become fathers probably feel like this.  Torahime's body bones are very strong, and she also pays attention to light activities. According to Mr. Nagata Tokumoto's instructions, the first child cannot have a large amount of surgery to prevent the fetus from developing too well and making it difficult to give birth. In this era, there is no possibility of caesarean section.  sex.  Even if Hua Tuo was resurrected, he would not dare to try it.  "My lord, please have a rest, we haven't had lunch yet!" Several more groups of servants came over to persuade him, but he still didn't move.  All the family members of the clan gathered in the large hall and waited quietly. Many samurai were waiting with empty stomachs for the news from the imperial palace. Princess Aya and Aju also did not come out of the imperial palace. The merchants and townspeople of the castle town and Naoetsu Town were also looking forward to it.  At this time, there were countless people in Kasugayama Castle and even Naoejin who had not had lunch.  I don¡¯t know how long it had passed, but the hoarse and high-pitched cry of pain from Tora in the imperial palace suddenly stopped. Kira Yoshi¡¯s spirit was suddenly shaken and he looked nervously at the delivery room in the distance. In that short moment, it seemed that a century had passed, and suddenly there was a sound in the delivery room.  The cries of babies came and went, and the cries of "wow wah wah" became louder and louder, which made him feel a huge stone removed from his heart. Only when he relaxed all over did he realize that he was soaked with sweat.  Nagata Tokkimoto, Quinaoze Moruma and many attendants gathered around them involuntarily. Some people rushed to Ohiroma to report the news. Everyone was nervously waiting for the exact news in the delivery room. Kira Yoshitoki took a deep breath.  Silently praying: "No matter what kind of child it is, it will be my first direct descendant. It doesn't matter whether I am a girlbut a boy is the best!" It's not that he favors boys over girls. In contrast, Kira Yoshitoki prefers girls.  But his current status determines that his first child will occupy the position of the eldest son. If Torahime gives birth to a boy, and one of Sandalwood and Naotora gives birth to a boy, it will cause huge hidden dangers to the newly born Ashikaga family, so  He would rather have a boy for his first child.  After a long wait, a gap was finally opened in the delivery room, and an old woman with snow-white hair walked out of the delivery room. She walked out with empty hands, knelt down respectfully, and said, "Congratulations to His Highness the Duke of Zhenfu, Hu Yutai has given birth to a six-year-old baby."  A healthy boy weighing six pounds, the baby is very strong and crying loudly! There is no problem with Hu Yutai, and the mother and son are safe! " "Boy Boy! I have a baby! I just want to say that the mother and son are safe!  Look at the rewards! Everyone present will have a piece of money!" Ji Liangyi excitedly waved his sleeves and handed out a series of rewards. No one would be more excited than him, if it weren't for the fact that the mother had many taboos.Seeing the wind and light, he couldn't wait to rush in and hug Hu Ji to celebrate together.  The young people rushed to tell each other excitedly, and the warriors in the large room cheered when they heard the news. Most of the warriors present were looking forward to Hu Yutai being the first to give birth to a crown prince. This young crown prince would represent them.  The interests of these family members will be further guaranteed as he grows up.  But there are always some people in the hall who are not happy. For example, Mitsukane Numata stretched his face and showed a smile that was uglier than crying. This person is looking forward to Torahime not giving birth to his eldest son day and night. If Torahime gives birth to a daughter, then  His daughter Sandalwood has a 50% chance of having a son. If she is lucky enough to give birth to a boy before Ii Naotora, it will not be affected whether the child born after Ii Naotora is a boy or a girl.  But he couldn't express his secret thoughts, so he could only fantasize about them in his head. But now all his fantasies have disappeared like bubbles. The cruel reality makes it impossible for him to face it. His daughter has been a child from the beginning.  He lost at the starting line, finally consummated the marriage and was deliberately postponed. Now that his eldest son is born, he really doesn't even have a chance to compete for the eldest son. He feels it's unfair. He wants to cheer for his daughter, but is it useful for him to do so?  ?  What you will probably get is ridicule and ridicule.  Just when Numata Hikari was worrying about gains and losses, the big bell in Erkasugayama Castle was rung.  The melodious and melodious sound of bells spread throughout Kasugayama Castle once or twice.  It spread to the castle town and Naoetsu Town.  The townspeople in the castle town silently counted the bells until the bell on the mountain rang nine times and stopped, then they were sure that the Lord of Echigo had given birth to his eldest son. The townspeople set off firecrackers in the town and celebrated with singing and dancing. Although the children did not understand  What happened, but it didn't affect their excitement as they ran around laughing and making trouble.  The monks at Myokakuji Temple, Gochi Kokubunji Temple, and Echigo Zenkoji Temple breathed a sigh of relief. They had been preparing for this for a month. The monks rotated in two shifts to pray for the Mother Mother day and night.  Half a month ago, Kurita Kanan even swore that the first child of the town father would be his eldest son, and he could finally relax after working hard and nervously for a long time.  Hu Ji was sweating profusely. The maids picked up clean gauze and soaked her lips with warm ginseng soup. Princess Aya and Aju came to the delivery room and held the pale Hu Ji in their hands. They said happily: "Hu Ji  It¡¯s great to give birth to a lovely boy! Hu Ji is such a brave woman!¡± ¡°I gave birth to an heir for His Highness, and I lived up to His Highness¡¯s expectations¡± Hu Ji looked at Xiao Xiao who was sleeping beside her!  The baby smiles with happiness and contentment.  A month later, on the first day of December, under the careful protection of a group of women.  The young baby appeared in the grand hall of Kasugayama Castle. Kira Yoshitoshi announced happily: "This is the eldest son of the Ashikaga family of Uesugi. His baby name is Jinoumaru inherited from his ancestors, and he will be Yu's heir from now on! Uesugi Danmasa  Shaobi Masatora will serve as the post-war supervisor of Yu Dizi, and at the same time, Sanada Yukitaka, Saito Asanobu, Hosokawa Fujitaka, Namioka Sobo, and Honda Tokimasa will be appointed as fufu, and he will start teaching and protecting Jinoumaru two years later!  !¡± The members of the group looked at the four people with envy and jealousy. Masatora Uesugi deserved the honor as the chief honcho, Yukitaka Sanada represented the new group, Asanobu Saito represented the Echigo group, and Fujitaka Hosokawa represented the Kyoto group.  , Namioka Soufang pursues it on behalf of the counselors, and Honda Tokimasa is the most trusted person among the Mikawa samurai.  When Echigo happily celebrated the birth of his eldest son, it was already at the end of the first year of Eiroku in the blink of an eye. In the season of severe winter, the imperial court and shogunate could finally relax after being nervous all autumn. After Miyoshi Chokei captured the Hanoi Kingdom  There was no further move to Luoyang, but he chose to return to Sakai Town to spend the winter.  Ashikaga Yoshiteru believed that the reputation of the shogunate had intimidated Miyoshi Nagakei, so he boasted about his achievements. When the court was happy, he ordered his official to be moved to the left. A right minister, Kuga Harumichi, announced the latest appointment. Ashikaga Yoshiteru would no longer serve as Shouchi.  The position of Chief Minister Nayan was changed to the position of two internal ministers, and the Youkonoe general was Ru Yuan.  This is the second time since the ninth shogun Ashikaga Yoshinaga that the Ashikaga shogunate has been promoted to the position of minister. In the eyes of the shogunate and Ashikaga Yoshiteru, this is a sign of great prosperity for the shogunate. In the shogunate, everyone cheered for this peaceful year, and some people were far away.  Those who hid from afar and sneered, such as Hatakeyama Takamasa and Yasumi clan who were in exile in Sakai Town, such as Yusa Shinji of the Hatakeyama family, Kunito R¨­dou of Yamato Kingdom, and the samurai of the Miyoshi family.  Miyoshi Nagakei, who was spending the winter in Sakai Hokuso, just sneered when he heard the news, threw the piece of information into a brazier and burned it to ashes. He said to his legitimate son Miyoshi Yoshiki: "Kyogong is still intoxicated in the prosperous capital.  Amidst the praise from the imperial court and many martial artists, the false peace has reduced his ambition to just this little bit. No wonder Kirara Yoshiki abandoned him. The Duke of Kyoto is really a man of great ambition and talent, and he will be a father next year!  An army has gathered to break this Kyoto and look at his expression!" At the end of the first year of Eiroku, news came from the war between Vietnam and Shinano.News came one after another that the Vietnam-China Army Corps led by Tokiyuki Yamamoto had advanced to the most stubborn areas in Tonami County to launch a campaign of suppression. A letter from Tokiyuki Yamamoto also arrived at Kasugayama Castle at the same time. This letter  The eloquent and long letter of nearly ten thousand words explained to his beloved disciples the principles of being a generous king, including massacres, refusing to provide security and refusing to surrender to some people, and forcibly encircling and suppressing other actions, which were criticized by him.  Kira Yoshi did not expect that the master who was gradually fading away from the public had such a keen sense of smell. In fact, he also realized that in recent years, he had raised his tail and said many proud but hurtful things, such as not needing allies, such as disdain to flirt with others.  Strategies, such as imposing capital punishment on compatriots who refused to surrender or surrendered and then betrayed, or not providing security, massacring the warriors of the Ichigo clan and the Qingshui clan, etc.  These behaviors actually violate the samurai code of conduct of this era, and even trample on the existing samurai laws to a certain extent. However, because Kiragi is too powerful, these shortcomings have not been revealed for the time being.  If this sign cannot be caught in time.  As the Kira family's territory grows day by day.  Sooner or later, the disadvantages will accumulate to an irreparable level.  When this "Ten Thousand Words Letter" really shocked Kiragi, to be honest, he had never thought it was so profound and thorough. He always had a sense of superiority in his heart that everyone was drunk and I was alone. He always felt that Yamamoto Kansuke's abilities had already been surpassed.  He learned everything from him, so he sent this hard-working master craftsman to guard a place. This kind of contempt was completely broken by this "Ten Thousand Words Book" at this moment.  Before that, he always thought that he could make the rules of the game because of his big fists, but he never thought carefully that he had not yet grown to the level of a rule maker.  Although the wanton action is refreshing, how long will it take for the bad reputation left behind to be eliminated?  Is it a good thing that Asanobu Saito can stop children from crying at night?  "I am still too trusting. Without this advice, I might have done many ridiculous things. Fortunately, I still have a good teacher who dares to say things that others dare not say." Kira Yoshishi read this "Book of Ten Thousand Words"  After reading it again and again, he ordered Xiao Xing to copy dozens of copies and pass them on to many generations at the last major evaluation meeting at the end of the year. Kira Yoshihide made a self-reflection in front of many ministers.  He solemnly stated at the grand appraisal that this problem must be corrected. First, he ordered the local residents of Shinano, Etchu, and Ueno to be granted security clearance to ensure that their local territories were protected. Second, he declared a ban on wanton massacres.  The "Bloody Edict" issued by the followers of the Yixiang Sect was also adjusted accordingly, and the massacre was changed to the dispersal and exile.  Those who refused to change despite repeated admonitions were punished with capital punishment to serve as a warning to others.  From the end of the autumn harvest to the snowfall for more than a month, Sanada Yukitaka led his army to launch several exploratory raids on Okaya Kita Castle. Unfortunately, under the guard of Takeda Nobushige, the defense was impeccable, and several attacks failed.  After the road to Shinano was blocked by heavy snow, Yukitaka Sanada transferred the main force back to Fukashi Castle and wrote a letter about the strategy plan for Suwa County.  This plan is not a simple attack on Chikuma County, but a proposal to complete the unification of Shinano from the strategic level of Shinano Kingdom and even the Kira family. Among them is a plan to launch an attack on Minami Shinano Ina County after the spring flowers bloom.  Yukitaka Sanada was very convinced that through these exploratory attacks, he understood Takeda Nobushige's combat thinking and the direction of the main activities of the Takeda Army.  Since Takeda Nobushige's defense is as impeccable as a hard turtle shell, there are only three best ways to deal with them. Either break his hard shell with a hammer, or the turtle shell is broken from the inside, or the only way is to lure the snake out of its hole, Yukitaka Sanada  Ask yourself that you don¡¯t have the strength to break the hard shell of an evenly matched opponent.  After all, it is difficult for the main attacker to take advantage of the favorable geographical location and people. Takeda Nobushige's strategy may be inferior to Yukitaka Sanada's, but the military strategy, government affairs, and knowledge are not much worse. Behind it is Kai Takeda Shingen's support, whether it is the cost of defense or the advantage of supply transportation.  They are all one step ahead of Yukitaka Sanada.  With Takeda Shingen's sophistication, it would be very difficult to trick them into attacking from within. It was not much easier than when Takeda Shingen defeated Kiragi on the frontal battlefield. Then there was only one option to lure the snake out of the hole. Fortunately, Kai removed Suwa County from Minami Shinano.  There are also three thousand troops led by Ina County Akiyama Nobyou. As long as they divide their forces to attack, Takeda Nobushige's energy will inevitably be involved.  Another strategy is actually a variant of luring the snake out of its hole. However, this plan does not use the Shinano Army as the main attack direction. Instead, it calls the Echichu Army to launch an attack on Hida from Echichu, and then uses Hida as a springboard to attack Minami Shinano.  His plan was to enter Kiso Valley Fukushima Castle directly from Hida. As long as he managed to surrender the Kiso clan, Minami Shinano would basically get half of it.  Kiragi thought about it carefully, and decided to focus on the first plan. The peace between Vietnam and China was not yet stable, and there were still a large number of remnants of the Viet-Chinese Party that needed to be cleaned up. He issued a peace order to the local people who had surrendered in Vietnam-China territory.  It is a means of compromise. Only by winning the support of local people can we rule in a long-term and stable manner.  There is another letter from Noto NanaoWhen the news reached Echigo Kasugayama Castle, the letter writer was Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna, the governor of the Noto Hatakeyama family. He wrote a sincere letter to ask for help from Kira Yoshitoki, and took the initiative to hand over the country of Vietnam and China to him as the country's governor.  The Lord also stated that he was willing to write a letter to Echichu to make the state certificate in three copies, one each for Noto and Echigo, and then send one to the shogunate.  What he asked for was that Kira Yoshitoshi would send troops to Noto to rescue him and his family governor, because at this time, the Noto Hatakeyama family fell into a severe rebellion launched by the Onai clan, a family member of the generation, and had no peace for three years. Noto Wajima Port was lost due to the war.  A large share of trade, and at this time, the four major ports in Echigo gradually formed a system, and recently captured Sakata Port to dominate the entire second half of Hokuriku, making Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna eager to end this civil strife that wasted money and people.  From the mouth of the envoy chief Xu Lian, we learned that Noto was involved in a civil strife in the first year of Hongji. Onei Sushen and his son Oni Xunzong tried to support Hatakeyama Harutoshi. However, Hatakeyama Yoshitsuna found out in advance and assassinated Oni Suozhen.  The rebel flag was immediately raised, and the rebellion spread to the entire Noto Kingdom. Although Onai Suzune was quickly killed, Onai Susada's two younger brothers, Oni Suuki and Oni Tsusada, continued their rebellion and continued to struggle.  (To be continued) PS: The legitimate son is born, scattering flowers!
