Astronomy twenty-third autumn.

Originally, under the pretense of aiding the in-laws of the Shinzu family, the situation of the Matsugami family, who were about to occupy the Shinjin domain and even dominate the Mu county, took a sharp turn for the worse. Dissatisfied with the atrocities of the Matsukami family, Shinzu retainer Doi Sajiro and others united with the temple forces of the Shintsu Collar to attack Yuanmeiji Temple at night, and Matsugami Yoshiyuki, the lord of Matsukami, who was sitting in Genmeiji Temple, waited for reinforcements for a long time to prevent him from being forced to commit suicide.

Soon, Matsugami Yoshinobu, the young master of Matsugami who stayed behind in the Shinjin Pavilion, was also poisoned by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Yuno. The successive deaths of the lord and the young lord depleted the morale of the Matsugami army guarding the Shintsu Pavilion, and soon collapsed without a fight under the offensive of the Shintsu army led by the Shinjin retainer Doi Sajiro. After the Matsugami army withdrew from the Shintsukan, they scattered and fled in twos and threes and withdrew to the Matsugami Domain, and the Shintsukan was reoccupied by the Shintsu clan. All of a sudden, the Yuanmu County families were shocked, and the forces of the Yuanmu County, which had calmed down because of the Matsugami family's entry into the Xinjin Pavilion, also began to move.

However, Matsugami Yoshimitsu, who was far away in Iga, ......

A few days later, Imaga Kuni, Imabari Town, a certain ryokaya yashiki.

After some preparations, Matsugami Yoshimitsu finally ushered in his wedding to the king of Mochizuki, the king of Mochizuki, Chiyo Girl, and at this time, Matsugami Yoshimitsu, who was trying to incorporate Mochizuki Ninja Village into his hands through marriage, was still unaware of the changes in the situation in Yuanmu County.

Originally, according to the customs of the Wa Kingdom, there was no need to hold a wedding except for marrying the main room. However, after all, Mochizuki is the daughter of the leader of the Mochizuki ninja, and it is not easy to slack off, so this wedding was born. Of course, the wedding was only held in the house where the Mochizuki Chiyo woman was staying, and the only people who attended the wedding were Matsugami Yoshimitsu's two retainers, Yoshiki Nagamasa, Saigo Takahisa, who took the Mochizuki Chiyo woman and Nakashino Matsuki.

The traditional Japanese-style wedding decoration is very simple, with a bouquet of flowers, a few pots of sake, and a Japanese dress. At this time, the bride was still on the stage, and Matsugami Yoshimitsu was in contact with Chiyo Mochizuki and others.

"Hahahaha. Your Highness Yoshimitsu, I will ask you for it from now on. Chiyome, who was dressed in an awkward kimono, was holding a sake jug at this time, ready to pour wine for Matsugami Yoshimitsu on the other side.

As for Yoshiki Nagamasa and others, in order not to affect the discussion between the two, they fought together on the other side of the house early.

"Don't worry, Lord Mochizuki, the main hall will definitely cherish Miss Ayu in the future." Matsugami Yoshimitsu replied as he picked up the wine bowl and caught the wine that Mochizuki was about to pour for herself. Then he picked up the wine jug and also wanted to pour wine for the Chiyo Mochizuki woman, and the Chiyo woman saw this and hurriedly held the wine bowl with some trepidation.

"Mochizuki-sama, please."

"Your Highness Yoshimitsu, please." After pouring the wine, Matsugami Yoshimitsu put down the flask, picked up the wine bowl again, and drank it with Chiyo Mochizuki.

Unexpectedly, after Matsugami Yoshimitsu just put down the wine bowl, Chiyo Mochizuki suddenly said. "Your Highness Yiguang, I have a request today that I hope you can grant."

"Ah~~~." Matsugami Yoshimitsu was stunned for a moment, and then said gently. "Mochizuki-sama, it doesn't have to be this way. From now on, you and I will establish the status of the main minister, but after Miss Ayu becomes the side room of the main hall, you are also the in-law of the main hall. If you have any requirements, just say it, don't be so stubborn. Please, please. ”

Chiyo Mochizuki's "request" is a bit rude, and although he hasn't said what he really wants, it's rude to make a "request". As a retainer who had achieved great success, this behavior would have been detrimental to the majesty of the lord Matsugami Yoshimitsu, but Matsugami Yoshimitsu still gently promised Chiyome Mochizuki to make his request. Yoshimitsu Matsukami has deep expectations for the end of Mochizuki Ninja Village, and as a force to trust himself in the future, he can't be easily lazy.

"Haha." Chiyo Mochizuki saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu Yunke making a request by herself, and immediately knelt down and pleaded. "I hope that His Royal Highness Yoshimitsu will be able to give an heir born to Ah Hao to become an adopted son in the future, and he will definitely make him the heir of the Mochizuki family."

This is the result of Chiyo Mochizuki's careful thinking in the past few days. Unlike free ninjas, the family ninja relies on the trust of the lord. Although in the future, his daughter Ahao will become Matsugami Yoshimitsu's side room, and there must be no shortage of trust in Mochizuki Shinobi, but after all, her daughter is someone else's family, and this trust is not safe. In order to deepen the bond between Shinobu Mochizuki and Matsumoto Castle, Chiyo Mochizuki finally decided to adopt a son of Yoshimitsu Matsugami as an adopted son. First, after all, it is the bloodline of his grandson Wangzuki's family, and second, the heir of Mochizuki who has fused the bloodlines of the two families can ensure that Mochizuki will trust him in the future. Such a two-way thing, even if he knew that it would make Matsugami Yoshimitsu unhappy, Chiyo Mochizuki had to do his best to promote it.

"This ......" Matsugami hesitated.

Although I value the role of ninjas very much, ninjas are despised by the world in this era. I don't care if my own concubine becomes the adopted son of another family, Matsugami Yoshimitsu, but a ninja can't stand out in this world. Unlike other samurai families that have been inherited for hundreds of years, Matsugami Yoshimitsu, as the founder of the family, cannot waste every heir. In public and private, Matsugami Yoshimitsu was reluctant to agree to Chiyo Mochizuki's request.

"Shinobu Mochizuki is willing to swear allegiance to His Highness Yoshimitsu in the future." Chiyome Mochizuki saw Matsugami Yoshimitsu's hesitation and hurriedly swore allegiance.

He's forcing the main hall, Matsugami Yoshimitsu understands that Chiyo Mochizuki is using Shinobu Mochizuki's sworn allegiance to force herself to agree to his request. Although he also understands that even if he doesn't agree to Chiyo Mochizuki's request, Shinobu Mochizuki will be loyal to him. But this loyalty must be compromised, and this discount will be the difference between life and death at a critical moment.

"Got it, got it. Lord Mochizuki, please get up, and the main hall will grant your request. Matsugami Yoshimitsu finally decided to agree to Chiyo Mochizuki's request, and helped Chiyo Mochizuki up while making a promise.

"Haha, thank you so much." The achievement of Chiyo Mochizuki's purpose is more respectful. ......

Half an hour later, Mochizuki, dressed in a Japanese bridal dress, was finally welcomed into the house. Dressed in a moon-white kimono and wearing a white bridal hat, Mochizuki looks like a white lotus.

However, because of the wedding, her face was artificially dressed as a "jade plate". The face is covered with white powder, but there are only two red spots between the lips. From a distance, it looks like a ghost in the mountains, and Yoshimitsu Matsugami can see the connection between this Miss Ahao and the Ayu he met that day. Originally, it was inappropriate for the current world to pretend to be so always, but after all, the Mochizuki family was down, and Ah Hao deliberately did it, so there was such an impact.

As for Matsugami Yoshimitsu, his appearance has not changed. However, now Ah Hao is full of plans to scare him when he is in the cave room to prevent future troubles, and although she teased Matsugami Yoshimitsu that day, she was actually just a passer-by. It's because they can't recognize anyone.

The ceremony of the wedding was very simple, and after Chiyo Mochizuki, who was counted as an elder, recited the greetings, the two drank the wine, and the retainers sprinkled the bouquet and it was over. The bride was sent into the cave room first, and then Matsugami Yoshimitsu, who was drinking desperately, also reluctantly entered the cave room. ......
