"Brother, are you going to give Man Ji to the retainer as an adopted daughter? This...... It's also too ...... Brother, you're also very reluctant, aren't you? ”

Hao Ji looked at the baby in her arms, and then at her brother's expression, and pity was on her face. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Haha, there's no way, after all, it's for the Maeda family. However, Aman's adoptive father and adoptive mother have not yet been decided, so for the time being, Aman can still be seen every day. I'm going to hug her more now. ”

Although Li Chang was a little lonely, he still forced a smile,

"I'm going to do a good job of selecting the candidates for Aman's adoptive father and adoptive mother. Aman is my most important daughter, and I can't wait for her. ”

Although he doesn't have much physical strength anymore, it is said that what Li Chang has been doing recently is all about Aman.

The elder brother had to send his biological daughter away for the sake of stability within the family, which made Hao Ji a little uncomfortable.

However, it is also a helpless move.

Hohime sighed and shook her arm slightly, causing a crisp giggle from the fact that Manhime, who was lying in her arms.

While quietly looking at the smiling face of the child in her arms, Hao Ji suddenly had a bold idea...... Although the purpose of her trip was already very bold.

She took a slight breath, then called the nurse over, carefully handed Man Ji into the nurse's arms, and then said to the brother in a much more serious tone than before:

"Well, my brother, actually...... I'm here for a reason. I would like to ask my brother for something very important, and I hope that he will listen to me when the time comes. ”

"Oh, I see. What is it? ”

Although he was very puzzled by his sister's sudden serious tone, he still agreed to his sister's request to talk first.

"It's a big deal. I will come to visit my brother again tomorrow, and I will make it clear to my brother in detail when the time comes, so you can rest well today. ”

After Hao Ji finished speaking in a more serious tone, he thought about it and added:

"By the way, I hope there won't be retainers or anyone else around tomorrow. Because the nature of the matter is somewhat peculiar. Please also ask for your understanding. ”

“…… Is it. I know. So let's arrange it that way. ”

After thinking for a while, Li Chang nodded and agreed to his sister Haoji's request.

But in the midst of this, he kept rolling his eyes, thinking about what Haoki wanted to tell him. Because it is very rare to come to Hao Ji's request.

"Speaking of which, I almost forgot. Alas, it's really old. ”

Li Chang suddenly remembered an important matter, and then teased his memory a little embarrassed,

"After I received your letter from Ahao a few months ago, I already informed Kishiro about this. Not long ago, when I learned that Ahao, you had arrived at Kanazawa Castle, I had already called Kishiro. He lives in Toyama Castle, so let's meet him in a few days. ”

"Ah, Kishiro is here, my brother is bothered, I'll go see him in a few days."

"By the way, he was already in the Yuan service last year, and his current name is Ukita Kishiro Hideki."

Kishiro, as Hirohime and Toshinaga refer to, is the concubine of the Hideki family, who was sent to Echichu after the Battle of Sekigahara and was sheltered by the Maeda family. Because he was a concubine, he was not arrested by the Tokugawa family, so he escaped.

Fearing that he would be suspected and interrogated by the Tokugawa family, Kishiro did not use his father's Miao character "Ukita" when he was in Yuanfu, but chose to use the Miao character "Ukita" of the separate family. This is also one of the prudent considerations of the long-term.

When Kishiro came to Echichu, Toshicho placed him in the area of Shincheon-gun, in the Echigo-Chugoku region, near the hermitage of Toyama Castle. Last year, when Toshicho came here as a monk, he arranged for Kishiro's Motofu style, and now he serves here as a member of Toshinaga's retainer.

According to the third year of Kishiro's birth year (1594), he should have been thirteen years old by now.

In short, Ukita Kishiro Hideki, like a small number of heirs of the daimyo of the Western Army, was lucky enough to survive the catastrophe and began a new journey in his life.

Considering Toshina's physical condition and bedtime, Hoki took her leave and left Toshina's room after finishing the conversation at the reunion.

The room in which he was temporarily housed by Li Chang was very large, at least twice the size of the room where he was now recuperating. The interior is all plainly furnished, with the atmosphere of a reclusive person.

After it was late at night, Hidemitsu carefully checked that there were no samurai patrolling around, so he felt that he could settle down and talk.

Of course, as a ninja, Tsukichiyo is still responsible for guarding and monitoring, helping to watch the wind outside.

"I've always heard that Prime Minister Kaga is a cautious and meticulous cold-faced person, but after seeing it today, I feel that it is different from the rumors."

Xiuzong, who endured not speaking for several days, finally couldn't stand it anymore, and his mouth was like a machine gun.

"My brother used to be like that. I heard that he was once called the 'cold-faced prime minister' by his retainers. ”

Listening to Xiuzong's words, Hao Ji smiled.

"Eh......"

"There are many reasons why my brother is the way he is now. The first is that he has unloaded the big burden of the Maeda family's governor, the second is in front of my sister, and the third is that he has the biological daughter of Manhime. Of course, the main reason is because of the birth of Manhime. ”

Thinking of his brother's long smiling face, Haoji's eyes immediately appeared with a smile from Manhime.

Loved ones, or children, can make a person change a lot. This statement seems to find an example in all ages.

"Speaking of which, sister Yi,"

Xiuguang, who was on the side, recalled the expression of Hao Ji when she hugged Manji, and had some questions,

"Just now, when I heard that Master Li was going to find adoptive parents for Manji, did you suddenly have any ideas, sister-in-law?"

"Xiuguang, you can see it."

Hao Ji was a little surprised, and then returned to normal,

"Yes. Actually, I want to adopt Manhime as an adopted daughter. ”

"Sure enough."

Hidemitsu was not surprised to hear words like "I want to adopt Manhime as an adopted daughter" from Haoji's mouth.

"If Manhime is handed over to Kanazawa's retainers, the elder brother will definitely not be reassured. In this way, it is best to leave it to your siblings to raise. The death of my sister and sisters, and the older sister Xing has no time to take care of it now. Then I am the best caregiver. ”

Hao Ji smiled, thinking that this way the brother would not need to worry too much about his daughter's life,

"I have the closest relationship with my brother, and now I happen to be in a state where the heir is no longer alive, so this is the best decision for both my brother and me."
