"Father don't want it, although Gentaro is at fault, but he won't be exiled, and I ask my father to take back his life." Chiyo couldn't help it, and couldn't help but plead for Nobukatsu. If you really let him go, then what should I do, but I have made a private agreement with him for life, and I have already given him all my body, if he leaves, I will only die. But if she had told the shameful thing, it would have been absolutely impossible.

Seeing her daughter maintaining it like this, Tachibana Michiyuki couldn't help but be furious: "You get out of here!" Otherwise, don't blame the old man for being ruthless. ”

Tachibana Chiyo not only did not give in, but said even more toughly: "If my father exiles Gentaro, then I ask my father to forgive my daughter for her unfilial piety." After speaking, he took out the small knife on his waist.

Seeing this, Takayama Nobukatsu, who was kneeling on the side, pressed the handle of the knife down, and said unhappily: "Stop! I haven't spoken yet, so why should you say more? Don't hurry up and make amends to the lord. ”

Tachibana Chiyo was taken aback by the momentum that suddenly emanated from Shinkatsu's body, before that, although Shinkatsu was not weak, but it was also not related to toughness, so in the past six months, he bullied each other in language, but today I learned that Gentaro has always let himself, and his current momentum alone is stronger than his father.

So he involuntarily withdrew his hand, and said aggrievedly to Tachibana Michiyuki: "Chiyo should not contradict his father, and ask his father to forgive him." ”

When Tachibana Michiyuki saw this scene, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, it's good now, but she has become an outsider, but her daughter, can you still know that as she gets older, it is a little difficult to even want to surrender her, but I didn't expect this Takayama Shinkatsu to really have some ability. It's really surprising that he can obey his daughter.

However, with her daughter making such a fuss, the purpose she wanted to test was no longer achieved. But he didn't change his words, and wanted to hear what Xinsheng had to say first.

And how can Shin Katsu not know the other party's thoughts. Now that Tachibana Michiyuki has exiled herself, she is better at talking. I saw him sit up straight and speak, "Tachibana-sama, there are two things to say below, first, although you will be exiled from the bottom, but for Shinkatsu's kindness, Shinkatsu will not dare to forget it. Despite his opening, Shin Katsu will go all out to solve problems for adults. Second, under the affection of Miss Chiyo, this time I asked the adults to kiss, and I asked Tachibana to agree. ”

Takayama Nobukatsu's sudden change caught the two unexpectedly, and what Nobukatsu wanted was such a result, only by disrupting Tachibana Michiyuki's train of thought could he win in chaos. And now he is not his retainer, and his status is equal to him. It's also much easier to speak.

Although Tachibana Michiyuki was stunned for a moment, she quickly eased up and understood what Nobukatsu said. He didn't want to leave Chiyo behind, so he still had some friendship.

"Do you know that the old man has a daughter for Chiyo, if he marries you, what about the family's business?"

"Although Tachibana-sama has no heirs, it is not uncommon for him to adopt a son to inherit it, and I don't believe that Lord Tachibana did not think of it."

"Having said that, after all, the adopted son does not have the blood of my Tachibana clan, so the old man is not at ease."

"I'm afraid that Tachibana-sama has a case in his heart. And why bother asking? ”

"My meaning is simple, I can marry my daughter to you. But the son born to the two of you must inherit the family business of my Tachibana family, if it is not acceptable. Then the old man can only choose another virtuous son-in-law. ”

Takayama Nobukatsu knew that Tachibana Michiyuki had already made a big concession, and if he didn't agree, then he wouldn't let Chiyo marry him, so after thinking about it for a while, he said, "In that case, it's just as Tachibana-sama said." ”

After hearing this, Tachibana Michiyuki was not only not happy, but frowned, and only listened to him say: "Can you do this master, if you give birth to a child, this son will be your eldest son, even if you agree, compared to Takayama-sama, you will not agree." ”

"Tachibana-sama is too worried, I can't hide it, I have already made a marriage contract with Miss Akechi when I go out, and I can let Miss Akechi's son inherit it, and I won't say much compared to my father."

"Hmph, could it be that my daughter of Tachibana Michiyuki can only become a side room?" Who wants his daughter to be small, of course Tachibana Michiyuki is the same, hearing Shin Katsu say this, he couldn't help but be angry.

"Tachibana-sama misunderstood.,I didn't plan to do so.,I don't know if Tachibana-sama knows the relationship between his mother and the three aunts? In my Takayama family, once a woman marries in, there is no distinction between the main room and the side room, only age, and Miss Akechi is older than Miss Chiyo, so it is appropriate to say so. ”

"Well, since this is the case, then it will be decided, and after I report to the lord, before the marriage date is decided, you two will step down."

Although it seems that he is only marrying his daughter, since he is going to marry the eldest son of the Takayama family, it is not a trivial matter, and maybe it will also give the development of the Otomo family, so even Tachibana Michiyuki, as a father, can't completely decide.

After receiving the report, Otomo Sorin's thoughts are also good, he has the same idea as Tachibana Michiyuki, although he doesn't need the Takayama family now, but with the speed of the development of the Oda family, I'm afraid it will soon be able to be used, and once there are Takayama-sama's good words, he can get the support of the Oda family, then it will be much easier to control Kyushu, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, so it was immediately decided that the wedding would be as soon as possible. And immediately took a letter of resignation and sent someone to Hida Takayama Castle. But he didn't let Takayama Nobukatsu leave, after all, even if the Takayama clan didn't agree, when the raw rice was cooked and matured, he would still be able to do something to his eldest son and eldest grandson.

Besides, the Gaoshan clan, after a big battle with the four ladies, came to the assessment room in high spirits early the next morning. Looking at the dozens of retainers and forces sitting in the assessment room, I couldn't help but feel good, although the retainers of the Gao Shan family still can't compare with those forces that have been inherited for decades and hundreds of years in terms of quantity, but in terms of quality, the retainers of this family are definitely the strongest in the world. And that's not all, even if your generation is old, then in the next generation, your own retainers are still the strongest.

"Subordinates (subordinates) and others see the lord (lord)." As soon as the clan sect sat down, he saw dozens of people saluting together.

"It's all excused." After speaking, I only heard the clan said: "I will recruit everyone today, firstly, to make arrangements for the lord to send him to his own family, and secondly, to discuss the matter of sending troops to help Sakuma-sama capture Tanba and Tango, and to help Shibata-sama guard against Uesugi." ”

Taking advantage of the pause of the clan, I saw that Yamanaka Shikanosuke hurriedly stepped forward, saluted and said, "Lord, my subordinates have something to report to the lord first." ”

"Oh? I wonder what Shikanosuke has to say? ”

"Back to the lord, when the lord went to Azuchi Castle, the former retainers of the Niko family, Tachihara Kuzuna, Misawa Yuyuki, Ushio Hisanobu, Kamei Ziju, Yokodo Hyogosuke and others have been in the city for a long time now, and their subordinates have already asked for clarification, this time they are here to serve the lord, and please ask the lord to decide."

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but nodded, as the power of the Takayama family not only increased, but after seizing most of the land in Shinano, the family can also be regarded as a major force in the world, and it is not surprising that the Quartet came to vote, but among the retainers of the Niko family, the one who can make himself look at it is probably only the Yamanaka Kanosuke, originally the Akigami family was not bad, but unfortunately it has been killed, as for the rest, it is also Tachihara Hisatsuna, Kamei Ziju, I have heard of it, but Tachihara Kuzuna should be in his forties at this moment, right, It doesn't make much sense to be accepted as a direct minister, and the rest are rarely heard of, and it is estimated that they are not capable generals.

Thinking of this, I only heard the clan say: "I allow Kamei to serve the family, as for the rest... Kanosuke, you are now an important retainer of your family, but you have no vassals under your command, so in that case, I will allow you to accept the rest of the samurai as vassals. ”

"It's... The lord, his subordinates and these people were all ministers of the Nizi family before, and many of them were higher than their subordinates at the beginning, if they were accepted as retainers, the subordinates thought it was a little inappropriate. Yamanaka Kanosuke, who has always been kind, couldn't help but say in embarrassment.

"What's wrong with this, since you are here to vote, you are willing to listen to the deployment of my Gaoshan family, if you are picky, it is better to let them leave as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yamanaka Kanosuke still wanted to say more, the clan couldn't help but wave his hand and said, "There is no need to say much about this matter, you can handle it yourself." ”

After a short time, he couldn't help but walk up, because he already knew that the Takayama clan was willing to recruit him as a direct minister, he couldn't help but feel very happy, and he also felt a little sorry for Misawa Yuxing, Ushio Hisanobu and other samurai who came to vote together.

"See Takayama-sama." As soon as he entered the assessment room, he immediately saluted respectfully and said.

I only heard the clan say casually: "Well, among the old ministers of Nizi, I only accepted you, do you know the reason?" ”

It's even more inexplicable that Takayama-sama just picks himself as a direct minister, Kamei Ziju, he is not yet twenty, not to mention Takayama-sama, I'm afraid that no one knows him out of the Nizi family, but Takayama-sama actually gave up those brave and famous samurai and chose himself, which is really a little confusing.

After thinking about it quickly, he still didn't have any clue in the end, so he had to say: "Back to Lord Gaoshan, I don't know if I'm down, but I'm afraid I'm just luckier in Xia." ”

"Haha, the answer is quite honest, yes, you are indeed just lucky, so you must work hard in the future, don't think that you can slack off if you can become a minister of the Gaoshan family, can you remember?"

"Yes, remember the teachings of your lords."

"Kamei Ziju I now officially recruit you as a retainer of the Gaoshan family, the status is temporarily a light head, and the age is sixty years, and you are appointed as the general of the family's Chibei army, and if you have meritorious service in the future, you will be rewarded separately."

"Thank you to the lord, my subordinates will swear allegiance to the lord."

"Alright, let's sit down." (To be continued)
