Right Ichisuke, who was galloping on foot in the snow all the way, successfully opened the door of Kuniyoshi Castle. In the town of Mihama, where Ichisuke on the right was passing, the townspeople already knew the news of the imminent return of the Sabei army. The townspeople of Mihama also began to boil hot water and waited for their families to arrive.

Shinsuke Yamashita, who has been reflecting on the house in Kuniyoshi Castle for some time, looks at the young son who keeps glancing out of the house, and his stubborn heart has softened a little. So after asking his wife to put on the thick coat for the young son, he suspended the young son's schoolwork, led the young son to the courtyard where a thick layer of snow had been gathered, and took the young son to play in the snow together.

In the heavy snow, Shinsuke Yamashita heard cheers outside the house. Shinsuke Yamashita, who reacted instantly, shouted to the clansmen on the side: "Kenzo, you go to the outside of the house to investigate, is it because the lord is going back to the city?" ”

Ming Weixiu, who was dressed in heavy brocade clothes in the room, looked at You-Ichisuke who was dressed in snowflakes on the porch, and asked excitedly, "My lord, did you help Sakuma-sama pacify Hanoi so quickly?" After listening, the right Ichisuke on the porch repeated his previous words again. Then he bowed to Ming Weixiu and withdrew from the city hall.

Sabei, who had already passed through Enshiki-gun, followed some snow-covered roads and walked unhurriedly towards Kuniyoshi Castle. As he marched, he ordered his troops to remove the snow from the road. Along the way, the local servants and wealthy clans along the way, after kneeling to Sabei, led their men to leave the team and return to their own territory.

As soon as the army led by Sabei entered the town of Mihama, the people of the town stood on both sides of the road and bowed their heads to Sabei who was marching in front of him. After seeing their families, some of the standing members of the team subconsciously wanted to stuff the gifts they were carrying into their families, but they remembered the military discipline that the lord seemed to repeat, and put down the hand that touched the burden behind his back.

When he arrived in front of Kuniyoshi Castle, Sabei turned back to his standing guard and said, "Today's victory has returned, and the standing guard who went out of battle will be off tomorrow!" After the family has sorted out the battle records, they will reward everyone! Yanbi followed the standing guard behind the sao bei and let out a shout and scattered. The rest of the attendants and military attendants walked towards Kuniyoshi Castle under the leadership of Sabei.

Sabei, who entered Honmaru, instantly saw his wife, who was already standing in front of the gate of the castle hall and being supported by a maid. The rest of the guards also saluted the guards and ran away quickly, while the attendants were cheeky and saluted the master's mother, and then entered the city hall to stand guard. The four members on duty in front of the door stood by holding the spears in their hands, looking at the lord who followed the master's mother, and for a while they didn't know whether to continue to be on duty or run away like the previous samurai.

Fortunately, Sabei did not embarrass these standing guards on duty, and after a brief chat with his wife, he pulled Ming Weixiu to the warm living room.

Sabei, who returned to the house, took off his cold armor under the service of Axiu. After tidying up her husband's armor, Ming Weixiu rubbed Sabei's cold hands with his hot hands. Sabei, under the service of the maid, picked up the hot rice porridge on the table and drank it slowly.

Sabei, who had drunk a few sips of hot porridge, was just about to ask about the recent situation when he saw his wife in front of him and leaned over to his ear. After a few breaths, Sabei, who was full of shock, looked at his wife in front of him and was speechless for a while.

Then Sabei, who was covered in sweat, got up abruptly and walked to the door, trying to open the door to breathe, but his hand reached halfway and stopped in the air. Eventually, after taking a few deep breaths in front of the door, Sabei slowly pulled away a width that only allowed him to pass sideways.

Heiji, who was kneeling in front of the door, saw the lord cautiously walking out of the room, and was about to step forward to inquire about the situation, when he saw his lord jump into the thick snow. The excited Sabei finished sliding on the snow in the courtyard and knelt up to the sky and howled, and then Heiji's face was confused, and he said to him: "Heiji, go and invite my retainers to the assessment room!" Heiji nodded and walked towards the outside of the castle hall with an incredulous expression.

Ah Xiu, who heard the long howl of the Zuo Guard, walked outside the living room under the service of the maid, and shouted at the Zuo Guard with a smile: "My lord, you are too out of shape like this, and it will damage the prestige of your brave general!" ”

After hearing this, Sabei laughed and said, "Ah Xiu's surprise to me is far beyond the feats established in the pacification of Hanoi!" Saying that, Sabei seemed to realize something, and stepped forward to the maid and said: "Hurry up and help Ah Xiu back to the house, these days, you have to take good care of Ah Xiu, and I will naturally not be stingy with the reward, and after Ah Xiu gives birth, I will give each of you ten small judgments!" ”

After listening to her husband's words, Ming Weixiu chuckled and said, "Amei grew up with me since she was a child, and these ten small judgments are not in your eyes!" After speaking, he returned to the room with the support of the maid.

The retainers who had been urgently summoned by Sabei did not know what was going on, and after receiving a notice from Sabei's attendants, they immediately set off with him and walked towards the assessment room of Kuniyoshi Castle. After waiting for a long time in the assessment room, all the members of the retainers gathered in the assessment room.

Everyone looked at Sabei, who had a smile on his face and no sense of seriousness in the past, and they were a little uncertain in their hearts. Especially Fushiwa Akijiro and Yamashita Shinsuke, the two were driven out of the army by Sabei before, and now they see Sabei's abnormal behavior, and their hearts are even more worried.

Sabei, who was still thinking about what to name his first child, naturally couldn't see the performance of the retainers in the assessment room. In the end, it was Yamashita Shinsuke who took the lead in breaking the river situation, bowed his head and said to the smirking Sabei above: "I know that I have violated the will of the lord, and I have deliberately provoked trouble in the name of the lord, causing a dispute among colleagues, and the sin is deep, and I am willing to reduce my salary by 300 stones, and I only ask the lord not to abandon him!" ”

Yamashita Shinsuke's voice stopped the cold wind outside the house for a while, and the entire assessment room echoed with the aftermath of Yamashita Shinsuke. Sabei also came back to his senses from his wonderful fantasy, but at this time, he saw Fushiwa Akijiro also stepped forward and bowed his head and said, "Before I went down, I was in Momoyama Castle, and I was rude to Yamashita Shinsuke...... Yamashita Shinsuke is the humerus of the lord, and I hope that the lord can deal with it leniently! ”

After listening to the words of the two, Sabei looked at the two again, although there was not much sincerity in Fushiwa Meijiro's words, but he didn't call them here today for this matter! I have to seriously examine and deal with this matter in the future, and I will definitely not be able to do it in my current state. So after pondering for a few breaths, Sabei decided to borrow the slope to get off the donkey, first affirmed the correct thinking of the two of them, and then told the two of them to discuss the matter in detail in the future.

Seeing that Sabei had returned to some normal, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. However, before everyone could catch their breath, they heard Sabei say: "Ah Xiu already has my bloodline, this is the reason why I summoned everyone here!" ”

After listening to Sabei's words, Fushiwa Akijiro's one-eyed eyes widened, and he got up and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything when he stood up. Suzuki Heavy Industries got up instantly, and then immediately bowed his head to Sabei and said, "Congratulations to my lord!" Then everyone bowed their heads and sent their blessings to Sabei and his wife.
