Never pinning the fate of a clan on a certain person or a certain force, this has always been the most important survival rule of the Chongduo martial arts, and there is no one.

Since the day when the samurai began to officially appear on the stage of history and had the ability to stir the world, and later the Battle of Genpei, the fall of Hojo, and the Kanio Riot, including the Rebellion that triggered the century-old Warring States, bloody battles began between fathers, sons and brothers belonging to the same clan, and different camps.

Although some of them are really because of the competition of interests and the clan is turned against each other, but more in order to continue the family better, as for which side can win in the future, which side can win the fruits of victory, it all depends on the luck and ability of the individual.

This is the reason why only a few thousand people were killed and wounded in the Battle of Sekigahara, which later decided the ownership of the world! Although the total number of troops invested by the two warring sides exceeded 200,000, most of them were made up by hundreds or 1,000 of the big and small daimyos, so except for the two main generals Ishida and Tokugawa, everyone else was really just playing soy sauce, anyway, no matter which side wins, as long as the strength is not damaged, the family name can always be preserved.

And now the Yano family has reached this time when they need to choose.,Although it's impossible to bet on this kind of thing at both ends.,But as long as it's not the head of the clan.,There's still room to turn around.。 Therefore, although Yano Yukisada has long intended to stir up the storm with the turmoil of the Matsukami family, he wants his eldest son Yano Nobuyoshi to lead the matter, so that if his life is not there, the name of the Yano family may be saved.

Of course, Yano Nobuyoshi also understood what his father meant, if this matter succeeded, then he would be the new master of Matsugami, and if he failed, he would be abandoned by his father. This is really a major gamble related to the fate of Yano Nobuyochi in the future, but Yano Nobuyoshi has actually run out of choice.

"Father!"

Soon, Nobuyoshi Yano made a choice.

"Please leave this matter to Shinyoshi! To be able to fight and even sacrifice for the future and destiny of a clan is really a great honor for Shinji. ”

"Good! Then go find the long chain letter! If the family wants to seize the family business of the Matsugami family, it is inseparable from the help of the long chain letter. ”

"Long chain letters? He's a close confidant of the dead righteous man! How could he ......?"

"That's right, it's a long chain letter. Although Nagachain Shin has always been loyal to the dead Yoshiyuki, what he is truly loyal to is the name of the Matsugami family rather than the bloodline of Yoshiyuki. Besides, Nagachain Nobu has been in power for many years, and he has a prestige that our Yano family lacks, and without his help, it will be difficult for you to gain the recognition and support of other retainers. ”

But why should he help us? The bloodline of the righteous deeds is not extinct! ”

"Hehe~~~, Wusanmaru is too young after all! As long as you assure the long chain letter of the safety of the five three pills at that time, plus the blood in your body from the Matsugami family, he is very likely to help you. ......”

............

In the middle of the hall of Nagachain's house, Nobuyoshi Yano, who was caught in a memory, gradually returned his thoughts to reality, and he understood that convincing Nagachain Nobu was another test that his father Yano Yusada gave him. If he can take the opportunity to convince the long chain letter to help him, then his ambition can be said to be half of the success, on the contrary, if he fails, his father may reconsider his support for himself!

"I, Nobuyoshi Yano, will definitely be able to convince Nobuyobu Nagachain to help me regain the family business, and I will definitely be able to regain the family business lost by my grandfather Yoshihei!"

Nobuyoshi Yano, who knew that there was no way out, swore in his heart, but at this time, it happened that the long chain letter he had been waiting for also walked in.

"His Royal Highness Shinyoshi is visiting today, and the long chain letter is not far away, and it is really ashamed to make the distinguished guests! I hope His Royal Highness Nobuyoshi will not blame the faux pas. ”

Although the Yano family is tall and meager, after all, the main family is not good at slacking off, so as soon as the long chain letter entered the side hall of the house, he hurriedly confessed to Yano Nobuyoshi, who had been waiting for him for a long time.

However, the Yano family now only has an empty family name, and Yano Nobuyoshi has asked how to accept such courtesy from the long chain letter. In a panic, Yano Nobuyoshi hurriedly bowed down and said: "Lord Long Chain is the minister of the pillar of the Matsugami family, and he was relied on as a pillar by the Ancestor Practice, and now that the ancestor has passed away, Lord Long Chain is busy with political affairs, which is a due courtesy, and how dare you blame it." ”

"In this case, thank you for your understanding!" Seeing that Yano Nobuyoshi was not annoyed because he had been waiting for him for a long time, but was respectful, he immediately became fond of him, so he no longer insisted on walking straight to the opposite of Yano Nobuyoshi and sat on the ground.

After tidying up his clothes, the long chain letter asked again: "I don't know why His Royal Highness Nobuyoshi came to visit the lower office today?"

Clinker, this long chain letter didn't ask, but after asking, Yano Nobuyoshi suddenly knelt down to the long chain letter and sobbed and said: "Nobuyoshi begs Lord Long Chain to protect my Matsujo family business!"

Nagachain Nobuyan didn't expect Yano Nobuyoshi to make such a sudden move, and was taken aback, if this matter spread to his long chain family's family name, it would be a big hindrance, and in a hurry, Nagachain Nobuyoshi hurriedly got up and wanted to help Yano Nobuyoshi.

"Your Highness Shinyoshi, please hurry up, such a great gift will not disgrace my long chain letter. Not to mention that he was a minister of Matsugami in the next place, and it was supposed to be loyal to the monarch and defend the lord, even if His Royal Highness Nobuyoshi had any advice, he would definitely do his best to complete it, so why do you have to do this great gift?"

However, Yano Nobuyoshi is difficult at this time, how can he be persuaded by a long chain letter in a few words? He ignored the advice of the long chain letter and continued to cry: "Lord Long Chain must also know that although Nobuyoshi has changed his name to the Yano family now, the root of it, his grandfather Yoshihei Gong is actually from the Matsuichi lineage. Now that the Matsugami family has died in battle, the Matsugami family actually has no one who can lead the army to fight.

Although there are still riots in Matsugami Castle, if this continues, there will be unscrupulous people in the Matsugami family, causing turmoil, and if you are not careful, the Matsugami family's century-old foundation will be in danger. Shinyoshi is not talented, but for the sake of the bloodline of the Matsugami family, I implore the long chain hall to help Nobuyoshi with an arm, and Kuang Fu Matsugami family business. ”

Speaking of which, Yano Nobuyoshi is already full of tears, which makes people look at it and feel sad.

The long chain letter also expected that Yano Nobuyoshi would make such a fuss, and he said helplessly without defense: "His Royal Highness Nobuyoshi understands his intentions, but no matter what needs to be done, please ask His Highness Nobuyoshi to get up and speak first." ”

"In this case, Shinyoshi will thank you in advance, Lord Long Chain!"

Nobuyoshi Yano saw that Nagachain Shin didn't know too much, so he stood up along the slope, after all, he was so disrespectful just to make Nagachain Confidence move rather than annoy him. Then Nobuyoshi Yano, who had not been up for a long time, highlighted his surprising words.

"Nobuyoshi begs Lord Nagachain to help Nobuyoshi restore the name of the Matsugami family and become the aftermath of the young master of Gosanmaru!"
