The pain of the death of a loved one is often not before death, but at a certain point after seeing things and thinking about people.

Yu Qiuping finally understood this sentence today.

He originally thought that Asai Nagamasa had completed the path of the samurai he had chosen, and that martyrdom and death should be the best ending for Nagamasa. Yu Qiuping, who figured all this, thought that he was really like a Warring States samurai, and he had already looked down on life and death.

But when he saw the white horse pipa he was sitting on, the tavern where he and Asai Nagamasa had drunk together, and the crying Ah Shi and her three daughters, the scenes of the past all appeared in front of him. Yu Qiuping only felt that there was a dullness in his chest but could not be resolved, and tears swirled in his eyes but could not flow. He suddenly felt a burst of futility and powerlessness, as a traverser, he had struggled for so long, wanting to change the tragic fate of his best righteous brother, but in the end he found that it was nothing more than nothing.

Not only is he powerless to change this ending, but even his original intention to change this ending is wrong. Because the good or bad of a person's fate is not judged by others, but by that person himself. For Asai Nagamasa, perhaps dying for morality is his best destination. Yu Qiuping's efforts to let him survive and change his historical trajectory are nothing but wishful thinking against the will of Changzheng himself, and nothing more than the selfish act of a traverser.

Everything in the world, could it be that there is already a plan in the dark? Then what am I, a traverser, working hard here for?

Well, there is still some meaning.

Uchiha Aooka and his elite team of shinobi risked their lives to finally save Asai Nagamasa's young son. Yu Qiuping didn't dare to let them stay here longer, but immediately transferred the child away. Anyone who knows about this, except for Yu Qiuping, is only Ah Shi. Yu Qiuping knew that Ah Shi was also a person who understood the importance of the matter, and he would definitely keep his mouth shut.

Sure enough, as soon as Uchiha Aooka and the others left, Oda Nobunaga began to search for Asai Nagamasa's missing young son in the city. They searched every nook and cranny of the city and every house, trying to find any clues, but found nothing.

Oda Nobunaga knew that Aichi definitely knew the whereabouts of her young son, but she refused to say it. Because if the youngest son has really been martyred as Ah Shi said, then Ah Shi's performance will not be like this. However, Aichi is now overly grieved by the departure of Asai Nagamasa, and his whole spirit is also a little trance-like, and Oda Nobunaga, who loves his sister, does not dare to ask more.

So, he turned to another major suspect - Yu Qiuping, if Asai Nagamasa really wanted to send his young son out quietly, Yu Qiuping would definitely be his contact.

"I don't know." After hearing Oda Nobunaga's question, Yu Qiuhei asked with some annoyance, "What?" The lord wants to kill them all, and the heirs of the people will not be successful? ”

"What? Isn't it possible? Didn't you see what happened to the Asakura family? "Oda Nobunaga's performance deceived Oda Nobunaga - Oda Nobunaga felt that since Akihei was so angry, then the matter probably had nothing to do with him." By the way, what about Changzheng's body? Oda Nobunaga paused and brought up another topic, "Are you buried in the burned castle tower?" ”

When Yu Qiuping heard this, he only felt that the hairs on his body stood on end in an instant, and a cold sweat poured out of his forehead. He turned around abruptly and stared at Oda Nobunaga with an almost ferocious look, startling the demon king, who had always been afraid of heaven and earth.

"My lord..."Yu Qiuhei's whole body trembled, and even his tone became a little weird, because Oda Nobunaga's words reminded him of the creepy "human bone wine cup" in his previous life - the tyrannical Oda Nobunaga, after defeating Otani Castle, painted the skulls of Asakura Yoshikei, Asai Nagamasa and Asai Hisamasa with gold leaf and used them as wine cups to feast the samurai present. He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "If you dare to do anything to Changzheng's body, and how to react to it, please don't be surprised." ”

"Are you threatening Yu?" When Oda Nobunaga heard this, his two sword eyebrows suddenly tensed.

"Yes." The anger in his heart made Yu Qiuping lose his mind for a while, and he said loudly without fear. He didn't feel it himself, but Oda Nobunaga was shocked—he sensed a murderous aura that was almost uncontrollable from his usually gentle subordinate. This sudden murderous aura stunned Oda Nobunaga, and finally smiled contemptuously and waved his fan, as if to say, "This matter is over."

"By the way, Ah Shi will entrust you to take care of it for a while." Oda Nobunaga suddenly changed the topic and said in a low voice, "She's a little tempered, she doesn't pay attention to what she says, and she doesn't eat anymore, so her body will collapse." You used to have a good relationship with her, and you were the righteous brother of that Asai Nagamasa, it seems that your kid has a good relationship with Chacha, so I'll trouble you. ”

"Alright, get out of here with your people." After saying the long paragraph just now, which was a little gentle and did not conform to Oda Nobunaga's own character, the latter was a little ashamed to cover up with expletives, "Don't let Yu see you again!" Get lost! ”

On May 17, Yu Qiuping led his army back to the territory. After settling the haggard Aichi and his three daughters in the castle tower of Maple Mountain Castle, he will begin to deal with the aftermath of the great war.

He first went to visit the seriously ill bedridden Shui Atom Sutra, and after the latter came to the door one by one to comfort the families of the fallen soldiers of his company, he fell ill because of too much self-blame and guilt, and it had been several months before he finally recovered.

"That battle is really thanks to you, without Chang Panbei Second Company, the whole army is a dead end."

"Your Highness, Zijing asked himself if he was worthy of you and the Yuqiu family, but he was sorry for the families of so many brothers." The water atom struggled to prop himself up from the bed and saluted Yuqiu, while whispering almost compassionately, "So many brothers... There are old and young of them... As a result..."

"Did their family reproach you?" Yu Qiuping understood that it was not easy for the water atom to be sutra, "It's me who is not good, I should personally apologize for the heavy casualties caused by this command mistake, and you should not be allowed to bear it." ”

"No, no family blames me, this is the most uncomfortable place to make Zaixia." When the Water Atom Sutra said this, tears flowed out of this man's eyes again, and the scar on his face was so shocking, "They all said that His Royal Highness Hongye was kind, and that it was good to treat their subordinates well." They cried one by one and said that their son died on the battlefield, which can be regarded as loyal to the Yuqiu family, and worthy of His Royal Highness and Zaixia. But the more they are like this, the more uncomfortable they feel in their hearts, even if they scold His Highness! There are also people who refuse to give pensions, but how can those orphans and widows live without pensions! Even with this pension, it will not be easy to make a living in the future! ”

"I'm already figuring out a way to do this." Yu Qiuping patted the shoulder of the Water Atom Sutra, "I won't let our brothers of the Yu Qiu Army have to worry about the aftermath when they are desperate on the battlefield. I'm already discussing with the Kinbei and Yoshibei to double the amount of the pension; A series of schools were also set up to allow the children of martyrs to attend school free of charge, so that they could be trained to become talented people so that they could earn money to support their families in the future. ”

"In this way, Zijing is grateful to His Highness for the brothers who died in the second company for Chang Panbei." Ignoring Yu Qiuping's opposition, the Water Atom Jing tried his best to support his body and gave Yu Qiu a big gift, "In this way, I can be worthy of so many brothers under Jiuquan." ”

·

The words of the Water Atom Sutra made Yu Qiuping's heart very heavy, and he went to visit the family of Akayama Nodshishi. As the highest-ranking samurai killed in the Red Leaf Army on this expedition, his death made countless people in the Yuqiu family heartbroken. He is one of the more than 200 slaves in Zhili City, and has been the cavalry commander of the Yuqiu family since the time of the Imagawa family.

As a result, he unfortunately left like this, and before he died, he did not marry a wife and left a queen, leaving only a pair of elderly parents, and the Anayama family did not know what to do in the future.

Yu Qiuping stood at the door of the Cave Mountain family and hesitated for a long time, not knowing how to face the Cave Mountain's faithful parents. To his surprise, he actually heard the voice of Naoto Ii from inside the house.

He knocked on the door in surprise and went in, and found that Naohu Jing Yi was washing towels in the basin while chatting with the second elder of the Cave Mountain family.

"Mrs. Inoi?" Yu Qiuping was stunned when he saw this, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?" ”

"It's Lady Caveyama." Jing Yi Naohu shook his head, apologized to the second elder, and then motioned for Yu Qiuping to go out and talk to him. When he walked out of the house, Yu Qiuping immediately asked in surprise, "You just said that Mrs. Cave Mountain... Be? ”

"Your Highness heard me right, with the promise of the second elder, the little girl has married Lord Cave Mountain, and now she is a woman of the Cave Mountain family." Naotora replied very calmly, "It's the wife of Lord Caveyama. ”

"But be faithful to him..."Yu Qiuping's words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't say it for a long time, not understanding what Naoto was thinking.

"Your Highness said bluntly that it doesn't matter, the martial horse leather shroud should have been enlightened a long time ago." Cave Mountain Naohu shook his head and said in a low voice, "How could the little woman not understand the mind of Lord Cave Mountain?" He waited for me for thirteen years without marrying, and this moral debt could not be repaid anyway. I can only spend the rest of my life serving the second elder, and after I die, I will be married to him. ”

"But..."Yu Qiuping still feels a little bad, although Akayama Nominee is his good brother, he hopes in his heart that Akayama Nominee can finally marry Jing Yi Naoto, but now that Cave Mountain Nominee has left, wouldn't Jing Yi Naohu start to be widowed before he even enters the cave room?

"Anyway, I've been widowed for an old man for more than ten years, so why not keep it again? What's more, compared to that adult, the Cave Mountain Lord really loves me, and I also have a feeling for him. Speaking of this, a gentle look suddenly appeared on the face of Naohu Anayama, "It's me who is sorry for him because of the mission of the Jing family." ”

"What about Tiger Song?" After Yu Qiuping heard the words "Jing Yijia", he suddenly came back to his senses. Previously, Ii Naotora refused to be in real time with Anayama Shinshi, and it was always on the grounds that "the Ii family cannot be extinguished".

"Hu Song will also inherit the family name of the Jing family, so that the obligation to the Jing family has been fulfilled in the future. And in the next one, he married the Cave Mountain family and repaid the love of the Cave Mountain Lord. In the future, he will adopt an adopted son for Lord Caveyama, and pass on the name of the Caveyama family. Cave Mountain Naohu raised his head, looked at the sky, and sighed in a somewhat emotional voice, "Maybe in my life, I can only be married to the Netherworld." ”

"Is there anything I can do to help?" Yu Qiuping was stunned for a long time, and he didn't know what to say, and finally only said this sentence.

"Fight bravely, bother His Highness to serve Hu Songyuan." Cave Mountain Naohu saluted Yu Qiu Ping Yingying, "This is also the last wish of Lord Cave Mountain." ”
