In this way, the adoption of Manhime would allow for the best of both worlds. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Although Man Ji still had to leave his father Li Chang, at least his adoptive mother was Hao Ji, and Li Chang was also very relieved about this.

As soon as Hoki and Toshicho talked about the adoption, Hidemitsu understood why Toshicho had relatively trust his sister Hoji in this aspect of adoption.

Because there is no heir between Toshicho and Masamuro Eihime, the two people who have a harmonious relationship have a lot of grief and regret about this. At that time, Xiujia and Hao Ji already had three children, so they passed on their two younger daughters, Zhen Ji and Fu Li Ji, to their brother Li Chang and his wife. Now the two children have grown up and married.

Because there was such a re-adoption relationship, and Li Chang and Hao Ji are half-brother and sister, so Li Chang's trust in this sister is naturally not comparable to ordinary people.

"Ah Hao, Ah Man will ask you...... As long as Aman can grow up safely and carefree, my brother and I will have no regrets in this life. ”

The above reasons made Toshicho firm in his determination to let his sister adopt Manhime.

He shook Haoji's hand with some excitement, and at the same time his face showed a look of relief that he had finally found a way.

As a father, the right to let his daughter be happy and grow up carefree in the few remaining lives is the thing that makes Li Chang the happiest, and it is also his most natural expression of emotion.

"Oh yes, it's great that I'm finally able to settle down about Aman's affairs. I will send out the procedures for adopting a daughter and the passage of documents tomorrow, so that Aman will no longer have to endure the discussion of the people on Kanazawa's side. ”

Rich's face turned red with joy, as if he had drunk wine,

"Ah...... Suddenly, I want to drink some wine to cheer up, and it would be nice to have wine when I'm happy. ”

Because of his health, he hadn't drunk in a long time. At this time, such words are said because of a momentary hot head.

"Didn't the doctor forbid you to drink alcohol, brother? Please don't mess around with this. ”

Knowing that her brother was in a state of overexcitement, Hoggie stopped him with a smile.

"By the way, Ah Hao,"

After the excitement of the head gradually subsided, he suddenly felt a little strange, so he asked Hao Ji:

"You want me to drive all the retainers and servants out of this room, not just to ask me to adopt Aman, right? If it's to adopt Aman, there's no need to be so secretive. ”

Because it's a little unreasonable, Li Chang thinks that his sister should still have something she wants to talk to him.

"Hao, you still have something you want to tell me, right? Let's talk about it, don't worry about so much. ”

Looking at the smiling expression of her brother, who didn't know anything about the Uki family, Haohime felt a little difficult to speak.

Alas, brother, you are now so that I don't have to scruple so much, but I have to scruples.

After sighing, Ho Ji shook her head, leaving all these distractions behind.

After a hard trek to Toyama Castle, things have to be said sooner or later, so I don't care about it.

"My brother guessed right. I do have one more very important thing to tell my brother, and I want to ask him to do something. ”

On the word "important", Hao Ji accentuated her tone, and her face became serious,

"If this matter leaks out, it will usher in a catastrophe with serious consequences. Therefore, please also ask the elder brother to be confidential. Ah Hao hereby asks his brother to be elder. ”

Houkie pressed her finger to the floor of the room, then leaned her head to the ground, very formally.

Because of the tension and worry in her heart, beads of sweat oozed from her palms and dripped onto the clean floor.

“……”

Toshicho sensed something unusual from his sister's serious expression and actions, and the smile on his face faded away, returning to his usual sense of caution.

"Ah Hao, let's talk first. Brother, I need to know what is going on. ”

Although it was still a more cordial tone, it was already with a hint of caution and concern at this time.

Sure enough, this is the original face of this Kaga Prime Minister, cautious, ruthless, and everything is for the sake of family interests. Xiuguang watched his expression slowly change from relaxed to tense, and his heart was as worried as Haoji.

Even then, I can only speak. Hao Ji was ruthless and told Li Changyu about the family.

"Brother, sir. Actually, my husband, the Xiu family, and the children, did not die at Kunoji Temple in Sunfu. ”

Haoji spat out such incredible news with one mouth, which made Toshicho very unbelievable.

His years of caution and composure had allowed him to suppress the shock of his words and deeds, but his slightly trembling cheeks and suddenly enlarged eye sockets seemed to indicate that his heart was not as calm as it seemed.

Richaga remained silent, as if motioning for his sister to continue.

"When I was being held in Sunfu, someone rescued my husband and my children. Now they have settled down for the time being, living in peace somewhere. ”

Hao Ji went on to tell the news that the Xiu family and the children were safe.

Hearing this, Li Chang took a few deep breaths, then raised his head and asked cautiously:

"Ah Hao...... Although I am shocked now, brother, I would like to congratulate you in advance. And then brother, I have a few questions for you. ”

It's getting dark. Although his tone was still relatively cordial and peaceful, at this time, because it was dark, his face was cloudy and uncertain against the flickering lights, or his mood was like a lamp, swaying.

"Uh...... The first question is, who was the person who rescued Prime Minister Bizen? ”

The first question of the long is very sensitive. But Houkie had to answer. Because if you want to promote the marriage contract between Xiuzong and Xiugao, sooner or later Li Chang will know.

"It's the Toyotomi family."

So Ho Ji answered this fact dryly.

"Sure enough......"

After hearing his sister's answer, Li Chang couldn't help but hold his forehead.

Although he had a hunch, he was still taken aback when he actually heard it.

Does the Toyotomi family now have such a talent who can hide from the world under the nose of the Tokugawa family?

This is a question from the long.

After Sekigahara, Toshicho never had the slightest confidence in the Toyotomi family. In his eyes, the current Toyotomi family has lost its former retainers and a large territory, and is just a bloated family that barely supports the façade by relying on the splendor of the past.

Such forces will one day disappear in the wheel of history. Even though Toshinaga was originally a person who was close to the Toyotomi family, he had to harbor this pessimistic view so far.
