"Quiet!"

Sakagaki Nobukata, who had been promoted to the chief family elder, waited for everyone to shout a few times before getting up and saying, "Listen, our retainers of the Takeda family will welcome a new lord from today, and it is Lord Takeda Harunobu!"

"Haha~~~" After that, everyone knelt down to Takeda Harunobu under the leadership of Sakagaki Nobukata and bowed to the minister.

After receiving the visit from his retainers, Harunobu Takeda also announced to the people, "I, Harumobu Takeda, will take the helm of this Kai in my father's place from today onwards, and now it is time to create a new Kai together." Regardless of whether the future lies in the mountains or the bottomless abyss, I hope that you will be able to move forward bravely despite the difficulties and dangers, which is our firm belief that Kai will have a bright future.

Kai's current situation is a loss to our Takeda family, so today I want to make a heavy oath in front of the imperial flag shield left by my ancestor Silla Saburo Yoshimitsu, and in the future, I, Takeda Harunobu, will take the glory of the Takeda family as my lifelong ambition! ”

Immediately, Takeda Harunobu turned to face the two family treasures of the Takeda family, the Imperial Flag and the Shield, and bowed down and swore an oath: "The Imperial Banner and Shield Nothing, please follow it." ”

"Flag shield no, please take note." The retainers of the Takeda family were moved by Takeda Harunobu's heart, and they swore to the two family treasures.

Soon after, Takeda Harunobu sent dozens of envoys to the countries surrounding Kai to inform him of the news that he had become the new head of the family, and it was on this day that Takeda Harunobu officially stepped into the stage of the Warring States Struggle for Hegemony.

Lady Sanjo's residence.

Since Takeda Harunobu succeeded to the new head of the family, Mrs. Sanjo got what she wanted, and her heart disease was naturally cured without medicine, and on this day, Yae Hime was preparing a new kimono for Mrs. Sanjo in her residence to celebrate.

"Everything is going as we expected!" Yae Hime couldn't help but smile with joy while trying on a new dress for Mrs. Sanjo: "In the future, the Takeda family will finally have no father-son dispute, which is something I've been looking forward to!" From today onwards, Miss will be the wife of the lord of Kai. ”

However, Lady Sanjo still said with some concern, "Having said that, I don't think that Shintora-sama will stop if he is driven to Suruga Province, what if he leads his troops back?" ”

"There won't be anything like that!" Yae Ji finally helped Mrs. Sanjo straighten the hem of her clothes before standing up and sneering: "This incident is the result of a private discussion between the young master and Lord Imagawa, it is possible that Lord Shinhu is no longer a person in this world!" ”

"You mean he's been killed!" Mrs. Sanjo couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed.

"What's this?" Yae Hime, however, did not surprise her three ladies: "For samurai, failure is death, and this is an iron law that cannot be changed even between parents and children!" ”

Yae Hime's words made Mrs. Sansan's expression suddenly become heavy, and she was born in a public family and couldn't understand the cruelty of the samurai family.

Yae Hime didn't seem to want Mrs. Sanjo's mood to be too heavy, so she changed the topic and asked, "Okay, it's almost time, isn't your stomach uncomfortable?" ”

"Oh~~~Ah~~~" It's okay not to say this, as soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Sanjo couldn't help but hold her stomach and exclaimed with joy: "Fangcai, the child moved again!"

"Oh~~~, roar, roar, roar." Yae Hime sighed with a thick public laugh when she heard this, "It seems that this good news has also reached the ears of the child in the womb!" Today is a celebration feast, and we are going to start a good life in the future! Oh roar roar roar. ”

At this time, Mrs. Sanjo was pregnant with her and Takeda Harunobu's second son, but what she didn't know was that in the future, only this child, who was born blind, passed on the bloodline between the two.

At the same time, Mrs. Oi lived.

Unlike the laughter and laughter on Mrs. Sanjo's side, Mrs. Oi's mood at the moment is very complicated.

Although the relationship between her and Takeda Shintora is extremely weak, she still can't bear to see him come to this situation, and the relationship between her husband and son is also making it difficult for her to choose whether to be happy or sad.

Takeda Harunobu naturally understood this, so he came to apologize to his mother early.

"I'm really sorry for my mother when things turn out like this, but since Harunobu has done such an unfilial thing, he won't make any excuses. Please also ask your mother to forgive Harunobu for what she did! As he spoke, Harunobu Takeda bowed down to his mother.

"The lord is not injured, is he?" Mrs. Oi was silent for a long time before opening her mouth to ask her son.

"How dare you, how dare you." Takeda Harunobu denied to his mother even with some trepidation: "I won't do that." ”

"So, what will happen to the lord in the future?" Mrs. Oi asked her son again.

"You should live in seclusion in Suruga Province." Seeing that his mother didn't respond, Takeda Harunobu asked tentatively, "What does Mother think?" I didn't know what my mother was thinking, but I wanted to do something as best I could. ”

Mrs. Oi did not immediately respond to her son's inquiry, but got up and looked out the window and was silent for a long time before sighing and saying, "I can't be happy that my lord has become like this, since this is the case, I plan to cut off the troubles of leaving home and the world to serve the Buddha."

You have defeated your father, but it will not be easy to win and survive in this troubled world as the lord of Kai! You don't have to take my mother's affairs to heart, there is only one thing that you must take to heart as a lord, and that is the future of the entire Kai. ”

"Yes." Harunobu Takeda took his responsibility very seriously.

A few days later, after the succession ceremony, Harunobu Takeda held his first evaluation as the head of the family.

"In the coming year, I have decided to concentrate on the affairs of the territory and not to attack other countries, in this year, we must let the subjects see the changes in our Jiafei, and we must let them see it!"

Harunobu Takeda expressed his determination to carry out political reform to his retainers, and the first thing he did was to establish the concept of convincing people and using the rule of law in Kai.

At the beginning, his father Xinhu lost the hearts of the people and his own territory because of his brutality and unreasonableness, so the first and most urgent thing in Takeda Haru's faith was to rule the country with reason and eliminate the chaos of the territory.

As for the second important thing, it is to make Kai rich as soon as possible, and it is said that a big reason why Takeda Shintora was so eager to start the war was because of Kai's poverty.

However, governing the country is inseparable from talent, so Takeda Harunobu decided to restore the government that was almost revoked by his father and decided to recruit talent in an eclectic manner. Later, in the face of the difficult natural and geographical conditions of Kai, Takeda Harunobu set the twelve-character policy of opening new fields, repairing water conservancy, prospecting for gold mines, and developing commerce as the guiding ideology for enriching the country and strengthening the people.

This is completely different from the Ming monarch's style of governing the country during the Xinhu period, but the chief boss of the family, Yuan Xinfang, was a little worried about it while being happy.
