    Date Harumune was born in the 16th year of Eisho (1519), Iwaki Kubohime was born in the first year of Daiei (1521), and another unlucky supporting character, the lord of Shirakawa Castle, Yuki Haretsuna, was born in the 17th year of Eisho (1520).  year), this unlucky guy is a member of the Shimotsu Yuki Haruto clan, and is a kin to the Oyama clan of Shimono Province. He accepted the favor of the Ashikaga Haru clan and obtained the post of Sakyo doctor from the shogunate, which can be considered in Minnan Mutsu.  The number one figure.  Iwaki Kubohime's father, Iwaki Shigetaka, was also a powerful native of Minami-Mutsu. The Iwaki family's territory was still south of the Soma family. It happened to be door-to-door neighbors with the Shirakawa Yuki clan in the southernmost part of Minami-Mutsu. It was to the south of the Iwaki family.  It is the Hitachi Satake family. To the north is the Soma clan, to the northwest is the Nikaido clan. To the north of the Nikaido clan are the Ishibashi clan, the Tamura clan and the Futatsumoto Hatakeyama clan. Then is the territory of the Date family.  The distance between the two is more than one word can describe.  At the time, Date Harumune's father-in-law, Iwaki Shigetaka, valued the Shirakawa Yuki clan's family governor, Yuki Haretsuna. He felt that the young man was of good character and had good abilities, and he had a bright future in joining the Ashikaga Haru clan of the Kanto clan. The Iwaki clan also aspired to pursue the same goal.  The development of Kanto happens to be of the same mind as Shirakawa Yuki, so it would be a good idea to get married and keep an eye on each other.  At that time, it was between the eighth and tenth year of Tianbun, which happened to be the time when Hojo Utsuna was about to die. Ever since Hojo Uzuna was stabbed in the back by Takeda Nobutora and Imagawa Yoshimoto together, at that time, the Hojo family was obviously  It fell into a period of decline. During that period, the Kanto Duke Ashikaga Haruji and the Kanto governor Uesugi Kensei were extremely prosperous. The two formed an alliance with Imagawa Yoshimoto and Takeda Nobutora to pull up a powerful siege net against Sagami that was even more powerful than the Echigo siege net.  Hojo clan.  Therefore, Iwaki Shigetaka＊s judgment cannot be said to be wrong. At least at that time, the Kanto K身k身 Ashikaga Haru clan had thick legs and everyone wanted to hug him. Moreover, the people of Mutsu and Dewa had always respected the orders of the Kanto K身k身.  Fang made the eight-house shape to specifically praise the eight most powerful national lords in Kanto and even the Yuao region. Yuki Harutsuna of the Shirakawa Yuki clan happened to be one of the people who embraced it.  The Shirakawa Yuki clan was once a powerful general in the Southern Dynasties during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Emperor Go-Daigo used the title "Yuki Ueno Dojo" in the imperial edict issued by Emperor Go-Daigo to Yuki Munehiro, the second-generation family governor of the Shirakawa Yuki clan in Mutsu Kingdom.  When the Southern Dynasty began to send petitions to the lords of the Eastern Kingdom, they had the habit of using the name "Yakatakan".  This family can be said to be the earliest user of the Yakata. When the Southern Dynasties lost power and became a bereaved dog, they were quickly attracted by the ulterior motives of the Kanto Lord and became their confidants. Among them, the Yuuki clan, the Satomi clan of Anfang, etc.  All the Wu families in the Southern Dynasties were preserved in this way, and of course the Date family was one of them.  Ever since Date Harumune fell in love with Iwaki Kubohime, he has been asking around, and finally found out that this beautiful girl is actually Iwaki Shigetaka's daughter, and Iwaki Shigetaka is looking for a son-in-law for himself, and soon Iwaki Kubohime will marry Shirakawa Yui  Shiro was the wife of Yuuki Harutsuna. Date Harumune was anxious when he heard that. He hurriedly ran home to beg his father, Date Inamune, for a favor, and then went to Iwaki's house to discuss the matter of marrying Iwaki Kubohime.  .  Of course, Iwaki Shigetaka looks down on this wild boy who came out halfway. No matter how powerful the Date family is, it has little to do with Iwaki Shigetaka. Moreover, the Iwaki family has always had a bad relationship with the Soma family in the north. Although there is no large-scale war, there is always some friction.  It is indispensable, and Iwaki Shigetaka himself and the Shirakawa Yuuki clan are good neighbors and good allies. In terms of partial gangs, Yuuki Harutsuna, who knows the ins and outs, is definitely better. But the problem is that Date Harumune does not play his cards according to common sense.  At that time, signs of the outbreak of the Tenbun Rebellion were already looming. The Date Mizune clan intended to send his son Date Mikimoto to Echigo as the governor of the family, so that his large network of relatives would start from Yonezawa as the center, the Ashina clan of Aizu in the south, and the Ashina clan in Aizu in the east.  The Watari clan, the Kokubun clan, the Ryuu clan, the Mogami clan in the north, the Osaki clan in the northeast, and the Echigo Uesugi clan in the west formed a super network of relatives. A lot of sons and sons-in-law have to listen to his greetings. Isn't this right?  Very cool.  The disagreement between Date Harumune and Date Inamune became more and more acute, because Date Harumune knew better than anyone that the previous adoptions were nothing to worry about, and Echigo's territory was so vast and there was a large group of people who completely destroyed Mutsu.  There were many powerful people from the Wu family, and Nagao Weijing was not dead at all at that time, so provoking that family was a sure way to die.  Even if he is lucky enough to make his younger brother become stronger after immortality, it will be a strong branch and a weak trunk. His younger brother Date Mimoto is a powerful daimyo with a fortune of 400,000 koku. He can be invincible when sitting down. Even though he, the elder brother who is the governor, is a relative,  Quite a few, but the direct military strength is only five or six thousand people and most of them are at the level of miscellaneous soldiers. The total direct territory is only a little more than 100,000 dan. How can he sit as the governor of the family?  He might as well serve his brother as the housekeeper.  In the ninth year of Tianwen's Echigo period, the head of the house of Yangbei Zhong raised an army to resist the adoption of the adopted son of the Date family. Date Harumune saw the right opportunity to find his father to marry a woman. Naturally, Date Harumune would not stop him. His eldest son  Still thinking about it at this timeThe matter of the love between his son and his daughter was just what he wanted. He felt that he could be the governor of the family for another twenty years and let his son indulge in the land of beauty.  So Date Harumune went to Iwaki Shigetaka to discuss marrying his daughter, but of course he was rejected without hesitation. How could Date Harumune be willing to swallow this breath, and he ran to his father, Date Inamune, hoping that he would come forward.  To exert some strength, Date Aizong summoned his good son-in-law Souma Yongyin and told him that your brother-in-law has taken a liking to Kubohime of Iwaki Shigetaka's family, and you can act as a middleman to negotiate peace.  At that time, the Astronomical Rebellion had not yet broken out, and the relationship between Soma Yongyin and Date Harumune was quite good. As the eldest son-in-law of Date Harumune, he was naturally very concerned about his brother-in-law's marriage, so he happily went to Iwaki Shigetaka to propose marriage, blah blah blah.  He said a lot of things about how it would be great to join the Date family, but Iwaki Shigetaka didn't care about him at all and served tea to the guests without saying a word.  Souma Yongyin was kicked out with his nose and eyes, not to mention the anger and frustration. At the same time, he also hated the old guy Shigetaka Iwajo. He felt that he had lost face and was a bit sorry for his father-in-law and brother-in-law, so he  He went back and gathered all his troops and ran over to fight Iwaki Shigetaka, no matter what, he wanted to get this face back.  Date Harumune had long known that his eldest brother-in-law's departure would be in vain, so he led a hundred or so people on horseback to follow him and stare at their movements. He knew very well that Iwaki Shigetaka would never agree to the so-called marriage proposal.  It's not because Iwaki Shigetaka is stubborn and has no wink, but because his daughter Kubohime has already said that the next Shirakawa Yuki clan will be married off and become the Yuki clan's woman. You can't split your daughter in half and have one side.  .  Moreover, Iwaki Shigetaka also felt that Souma Yuin was looking for trouble. It was well known that his own daughter was praised as the most beautiful woman in Mutsu. It was also known that Iwaki Shigetaka valued his ally Yuuki Haretsuna. The two parties negotiated the engagement without hiding it from anyone.  , he would have known if Xiangma Rouyin hadn't been so arrogant, just by asking around, that the two families were not at odds for a day or two, which made him very suspicious that Xiangma Rouyin was deliberately trying to disgust him, so he kicked him out without hesitation.  Sure enough, the grumpy Soma Yongyin took his son and ran to fight with Iwaki Shigetaka. Odate Castle, the residence of the Iwaki clan, did not have many troops to guard it. So Date Harumune swaggered into the Iwaki territory under the banner of a banner and came to  Odate Castle knocked on the door and entered grandly. He told the Iwaki family tree representative at the door that he was the son-in-law of Iwaki Shigetaka who came to meet his wife Iwaki Kubohime.  The family retainer couldn't figure out his details. He just wanted to see if his flag was the family crest of the Shirakawa Yuki family, so he asked a few questions. It turned out that Date Harumune was so brave that he dared to tell lies.  , saying that Iwaki Shigetaka felt that Yuuki Haretsuna was too young and lacked experience, and that the Mutsu Date family was more suitable as a son-in-law, so he fell in love with him. When he saw Iwaki Shigetaka on the street just now, he asked him to come over and see Kubo Hime Yunyun.  It just so happened that the defender of Odate Castle was not an elder of the Kanadai family but a less useful retainer. The elders of the Kanadai family had gone out to fight with Shigetaka Iwajo. Naturally, the defenders of the city were those who were not taken seriously or were suppressed.  The retainer on behalf of the family, so the retainer on behalf of the family was forcibly frightened by him. He opened the Otate Gate and let more than a hundred warriors on horseback enter the city.  Date Harumune sneaked into the city and did not dare to delay. He went straight to Hime Kurun to see Iwaki Kubohime. Then without saying a word, he dragged Kubohime, who was still a young girl, onto a horse, and then blatantly abducted Iwaki Shigetaka.  His precious daughter, by the time Ji Qulun's maid yelled for the warriors, they had already left. The stupid family retainer didn't know how the lord's "good son-in-law" came in and out, and didn't pay attention at all.  The horse that arrived at Date Harumune was carrying a girl with her mouth gagged.  When Shigetaka Iwaki defeated S身ma Y身in and returned in triumph, he found that his precious daughter had been kidnapped by his "good son-in-law". At that time, he was so angry that he cut off the head of that idiot retainer and hung it outside Otemon's door without saying a word.  , what can I do when I look back at the madam who is crying in a daze?  If this scandal were revealed, Iwaki Shigetaka would no longer live and would simply commit suicide.  As a result, just a few days later, Date Harumune dared to send an envoy to invite Iwaki Shigetaka to his wedding in a grand manner. He kept calling him his father-in-law in the letter, leaving Iwashiro Shigetaka with no choice but to tell him in a tactful way.  I can't marry my die-hard allies Shirakawa Yuuki and Kubo Hime, otherwise I, Iwaki Shigaru, have a little niece who was born this year at the age of 13. My daughter is too beautiful to be matched with Harutsuna.  So much.  Because this incident was so ugly, the Shirakawa Yuki clan soon learned the inside story. Yuki Yoshitsuna was almost angered to death and vowed to be at odds with the Date family. Then he led his army to go to war with the Date family. As a result  Unexpectedly, the Date family had so many relatives, including Mori Ashina, Harumi Ishikawa, Teruyuki Nikaido, and Souma Souma, all their relatives and sons-in-law.  "Where has the Shirakawa Yuki clan ever seen such an unreasonable formation?"Don't be too bullying if a group of people singled out one person. In this battle called the Kawaii Battle, Yuki Yoshitsuna fought hard for many days and was finally defeated. Not only did his marriage to the Iwaki clan completely come to nothing, but he also lost part of his territory and powerful power.  It is simply worse than a baby cabbage. Being shot to death for no reason and being bullied to death by a gang of bullies' relatives is simply unreasonable.  Since then, although the Shirakawa Yuki clan has not completely broken up with Iwaki Shigetaka, serious cracks have appeared in the relationship between the two parties' allies. The Shirakawa Yuki clan knows that he cannot defeat the Date family with a large group of relatives in Mutsu, so he concentrates on  Heading towards Shimono and Hitachi, I had a great time bumping into and fighting with the Satake clan from time to time.  And Date Harumune just grabbed a beautiful wife and had a bunch of relatives to take care of it for him. Although the relationship with his father-in-law Shigetaka Iwaki was not very harmonious, the couple raised five sons and six daughters happily, and  Date Harumune never had a side wife from the beginning to the end, and this blessing was beyond the reach of the unlucky Yuuki Harutsuna.  Ever since Yuuki Harutsuna's wife was robbed, she has been unlucky all the way. First she was defeated in the Kawaii battle and then at a disadvantage in the fight with the Satake clan. Fortunately, Date Harumune felt that she had gone too far and sent an envoy.  Convince his father-in-law, Iwaki Shigetaka, to adopt his little niece as an adopted daughter to marry Yuuki Harutsuna, and then support this unlucky guy to stabilize the situation.  At least the Shirakawa Yuuki clan did not fall into decline, so Yuuki Harutsuna was slightly more biased towards Date Harumune in terms of stance. In fact, Yuuki Harutsuna couldn't do anything about it. His wife had already flown into the arms of others, and he and  His father ran for his life and was almost killed by a group of bully relatives. There were only two ways in front of him, either to give in or to resist desperately. When he was hesitating, Date Harumune offered him an olive branch, which was the best way for him to step down.  So I just accepted my fate and kept my family name.  Moreover, the marriage contract between Yuki Yoshitsuna and Iwaki Shigetaka was only circulated in the Minamimutsu generation. After Date Harumune's interference, it changed the flavor. Many people thought that Iwaki Shigetaka really planned to marry his daughter to the Date family.  Moreover, Date Harumune clearly told him that this matter could barely be covered up, and the traces of it could be covered up by revising the documents of the various Mutsu families involved in it a few years in advance using the Spring and Autumn style of writing.  Since there is no need to lose face, there is no need for Yuuki Harutsuna to keep fighting. Preserving the family name and inheriting the family business is more important than anything else. The so-called face will only be considered when there is no danger in one's own territory and the family business will not be hindered.  Several participants had sworn to cover up the matter, so he had nothing to worry about.  Yuki Yoshitsuna was not as open-minded as his son, and soon retired completely to become a monk because he was too angry. However, Yuki Harutsuna did closely follow Date Harumune's footsteps in the ensuing Tenbun Rebellion, and worked with his "father-in-law" Iwaki Shigetaka.  At the same time, he was affiliated with Date Haru Munakata. He was asked to involve Tamura Takashi behind the scenes without having to fight naked in person. Yuki Harutsuna welcomed the request very much, so he remained "neutral" behind the scenes.  Make a stumbling block to Tamura Takashi.  If it weren't for this incident, his father might never have told such a tortuous past in his life. His old-fashioned and serious father was also a real man who was bold, careful, daring to think and do. This dark history is really full of ups and downs, which makes Yi  Hearing this, Tatsumi's blood boiled all over, and he wished he could rush out immediately and lead his army to perform the same act, and kidnap Mogami Yoshihime out of Yamagata Castle.  But Date Harumune poured cold water on him without hesitation: "My father told you these past things, not to ask you to imitate my family and go to Yamagata Castle to snatch Princess Yoshihime. Then you are by no means the only one who is so powerful in the Kira family.  All I can do is tell you this story to cheer you up and not be intimidated by the crisis at hand. Things in this world are not static. " "Father" Kuboji frowned slightly and stared at the father and son.  With a strange look on his face, he asked with confusion: "What happened to Sujiro and Princess Yoshihime? What are you two father and son going to say? Sujiro and Princess Yoshihime are engaged, why do you want to take back Princess Yoshihime?" "  This is more complicated, I will explain it to you later." Date Harumune didn't want his son to be embarrassed in front of his mother again, so he quickly concluded: "In short, this shame must be found.  When we come back, we will notify our allies to take quick action and rush to Yonezawa City to find an effective way to properly solve this problem. Go ahead! Don＊t think too much, take a good rest and recuperate, and don＊t be discouraged.§  Tatsumiune nodded silently, bowed and left in a hurry. Kubohime turned around and grabbed Date Harumune's sleeves. The always simple and serious hometown governor was trying hard to change his sitting posture, using his hands and feet together to silently move to the other side.  He climbed through the door on the side, but unfortunately Date Harumune's efforts were easily broken by Kubohime. He was grabbed by the sleeve and couldn't break free, so he had no choice but to sit down and look at his wife dejectedly.  "Kubohime smiled at him and complained softly: "??Your Highness, now it＊s time to talk about why you have to tell all these old things, right?  I was just worried that Your Highness would be careless and say things that shouldn't be said!  Fortunately, Your Highness still has the sense to let the children hear" "Ahem!  My husband is neither stupid nor stupid, so I can't tell Sujiro that I took you to the rice fields in the wilderness back then, and then held you in my arms for the first time in my life, right?  Then what dignity do I have as a father?  "Date Harumune's poker face that had never changed for thousands of years showed an awkward expression again. Old couples are always the most familiar with each other's habits and habits. Date Harumune, who has always been deep and sophisticated, is still powerless in front of his wife.  "Okay, don't talk about that!  Are you embarrassed?  "Even though Kubohime is a dignified and generous lady, she still can't stand her man's shameless words. She swatted away the hand that he quietly stretched out and asked again: "Just now, Your Highness was talking about Sujiro and Yoshihime.  What happened to the princess?  I listened for a long time but didn＊t understand at all!  " Date Harumune hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "Actually, it was what happened to Sujiro, just like what my husband and Kubohime experienced" (To be continued.)
