Iiya is located in the central part of Enjiang Province, south of Lake Hamana and northwest of Shirakuhara.

It was the Ii clan of the Enoe Province who controlled the Ii Clan, and it was this inconspicuous people of the country who not only survived to the Edo period because of their excellent standing skills, but also became the "opening hero" of the Tokugawa shogunate.

The Ii clan was a retainer of the Toe family, and in the third year of the Ming Dynasty (1494 AD), the Imagawa clan of Suruga launched an invasion of the Toe family, and the Ii clan followed the Spo family to fight against the Imagawa family.

This battle lasted until the reign of Bunkame and Eissa, and finally in the 10th year of Eishō (1513 AD), the Imagawa clan captured Mitsugake Castle in Enoe and forced the Ii clan to surrender, and from then on the Ii clan became a retainer or subordinate of the Imagawa clan.

The ancestor of the Ii clan, Ii Naomune (Ii Naoto's grandfather), was killed in the Battle of Mikawa Tawara Castle in the 11th year of Astronomy, and several sons also died in collusion between the old man of the family, Masanao Ono, and the Imagawa family.

Eventually, the position of head of the Ii clan passed to the current head of the Ii Naomori (the father of Ii Naotora).

Naomori is in his forties, with a mustache and a thin figure, and a few patches on his shabby clothes. For the Ii family to be able to receive distinguished guests like Tsugawa Soji, especially with the Imagawa family's important minister Taiyuan Xuesai as a companion, the Iyi family was very flattered, for fear that a bad service would cause trouble for the Ii family.

Longtan Temple, located outside the castle of Iyiya, is the Bodhi Temple of the Iyi family, and it is also the most "luxurious" place in the Ii family, so Ii Naomori arranged for Tsugawa Soji and others to rest in the Longtan Temple.

I am not interested in the Enoei Ishi Tsugawa Soji, I haven't seen too many of such a small wealthy family, and the only one who can arouse the little interest of Tsugawa Soji is the famous "female city lord" Ii Naoto.

However, at this time, Ii Naohu was only a five-year-old girl, although she had a marriage contract with her cousin Ii Nao, but because of the slander of the old man Kono Masanao, the Imagawa family mistakenly thought that the Ii family was going to rebel.

Eventually, Ii Naomitsu, the father of Ii Naokin, and others were seppuku, and Ii Naojin also fled to Shinano Ina County, where he was sheltered by Matsuoka Yorisada, the lord of Matsuoka Castle, and hid him in Matsugenji Temple outside the castle.

At this time, the Jing Yi family can be described as internal and external troubles.

There is a rebellion of the retainer Ono clan inside, and the main family Imagawa family is pressing step by step, and if you are not careful, you may end up with the name of the family.

Soharu Tsugawa has just been visiting Lake Hamana for an hour or two, and it can be said that he is physically and mentally exhausted. Although it is undeniable that the scenery of Lake Hamana is indeed beautiful, it is long before you get tired after walking for hours.

After hastily eating the rice and a piece of dried fish provided by the Ii family, and eating a stack of pickled radish, Soji Tsugawa regained some strength a little. And Taiyuan Xuezhai doesn't know if it's because of his age or what, so he has gone to the backyard to rest temporarily.

Without the people of the Imagawa family, Tsugawa Soji more or less let go a lot, and began to wander around Ii Valley Castle accompanied by Ii Naomori.

Just as he walked to the gate of Ii Valley Castle and opened, Ii Naomori next to him suddenly scolded, "Master Jiro, why did you get dirty again!" What are you doing here if you don't worship the Buddha in the temple! ”

Since Jing Yi Naosheng "ran away", in order to avoid his only daughter being affected, Jing Yi Naomori let his daughter enter the Longtan Temple to become a monk.

is the so-called pity for the hearts of parents in the world, Jing Yi Naosheng has no son and is such a daughter, which can be said to be extraordinarily loved. But his own ability is mediocre and he can't dominate his retainers, so that the Ii family is in such turmoil.

The adopted son of the son-in-law also ran away to Shinano, and the Imagawa family has been trying to find an opportunity to completely "annex" the Ii family, and the old man of the family, Kono Masanao, seems to have reached some agreement with the Imagawa family secretly, so Ii Naomori, the master, is really uncomfortable.

Now seeing his daughter appear in front of the Imagawa family's distinguished guests like this, if he is caught by the Imagawa family at this time, then the Iyi family will be finished!

Seeing Naomori Ii losing his temper at a little girl with a muddy face, Soharu Tsugawa had already guessed that this innocent-looking little girl with two big watery eyes sparkling was Naohu Ii who had the name of "Tiger Mother".

Suddenly, Tsugawa Soji made a move that caught Ii Naomori and others off guard, and Tsugawa Soji stepped forward to hug Ii Naohu regardless of his identity.

"Are you called Jiro-mage? Why is it so dirty? Soji Tsugawa reached out and scraped on Naotora Ii's nose, revealing a large white fang.

Jing Yi Naohu was only a four or five-year-old girl at this time, although she was usually a little weird, but where did she know any big truths, and when she saw a stranger suddenly rush up and pick herself up, she was frightened and cried for a while.

"Woo woo, mud play Kai, bad Shu Huang! Woo woo, Master Jiro doesn't want you to hug! Not only did he cry, but he also scratched his hand on Tsukawa Soji's face while crying, and his two slender calves also stared at him indiscriminately, and soon Tsugawa Soji was also covered in mud.

Seeing that Naohu Ii looked like "uncle, we don't make an appointment", Soji Tsugawa suddenly felt a little painful.

And Ii Naomori on the side was already so excited that he was about to faint. Don't get me wrong, it's not a happy feeling, it's a dead heart!

Oh, my God! What did you do, Master Jiro! This is the head of the Imagawa family, Imagawa Yoshimoto, personally ordered to entertain the distinguished guests, even the Zen master Xuezhai can only be accompanied, such a noble person is not to say that he hugs you, even if it is...... That's your convincing.

You actually cry and make trouble in front of the nobles, and the clothes on the nobles are dirty. Looking at the texture of this pattern, I'm afraid that a piece of clothing is dozens of times, right? And if Ii Naomori knew that the silk clothes on Tsugawa Soji would cost two or three hundred times in Kyoto, I am afraid that he would not want to wake up again after this fainting.

"Master Jiro, come and meet Tsukawa-sama, this is a world-famous samurai!" Ii Naomori hurriedly pulled Master Jiro out of Tsugawa Soji's arms, and then took Ii Naomori to greet Tsugawa Soharu together.

Soji Tsugawa waved his hand, "The family has a lot of eyes for the princess, and I was overjoyed for a while, and I didn't have time to think about it, and this move is indeed rude, and I ask Shinano (Ii Naomori calls himself Shinano Mamoru ) not to be surprised." ”

"Where is it, it is a blessing in his life for Master Jiro to be favored by the Tsugawa Temple, how dare the family not know how to lift?" Ii Naomori tried hard to put on a smile, and then cautiously asked, "It's just Tsugawa Hall, is the little girl a little younger?" Why don't you wait a few more years? ”

“？？？？？”

Soji Tsugawa was suddenly stunned, what is this! But soon, Soji Tsugawa reacted suddenly, this Ii Naomori didn't think that Lao Tzu had a crush on Ii Naoto, right?
