Senahime returned to the palace and entered the dressing room next to the bedroom, where she stood there as blank as a stone, not moving for a long time. Even though she is dissatisfied with Matsudaira Motoyasu, Sena believes that Matsudaira Motoyasu has feelings for them, but she has lingering sadness in her heart.

When she was in Sunfu Castle, the ruthless Imagawa family was so angry that she almost killed her, although she was later able to escape from Sunfu Castle, and her father Kinaga was left in Sunfu Castle because they escaped that night.

When their mother and son were freed from the hands of the Enoe-Imagawa family, they also learned from the hands of the Enoe-Imagawa family that her father Sekiguchi Kinaga had committed suicide not long ago, and even received a handwritten letter left by Sekiguchi Kinaga. At that time, she could no longer care about the wonder why her father's letter had fallen into the hands of the Enoe-Imagawa family, and when she opened the letter to confirm that the handwriting was her father's handwriting and saw the contents of the letter, she had already cried into tears.

"My death has nothing to do with you. You have to live in harmony with Matsudaira Motoyasu, serve him well, and teach the children well. "When his father's letter reached Senahime, he was no longer in this world. And today, in the midst of grief, she read the epistle again.

"For Matsudaira Motoyasu, even my father ......"

Although her father asked her to live in harmony with Matsudaira Motoyasu in the letter, the more she read, the more sad she became, and her heart ached. Married to the house of the enemy! Remembering this. Sena Hime felt like she was going crazy. But at the end of the day. It made her depressed. It's still the Imagawa family who had a skin-to-skin relationship with her. After all, the Imagawa family can really be described as her father-killing enemy.

In the new wood-scented palace, Sena Hime is still rejoicing in her freedom, while trying to make herself forget her father's death and bask in happiness. Just when she was getting used to this kind of life, the words of the maid Awan suddenly shattered her dreams. So, she immediately wanted to make a big fuss, but now Matsudaira Motoyasu is no longer what it used to be. It is no longer possible to do what Sena will do in the past, and if she makes a big fuss, how will he react?

"Come on, go to the city immediately and call Ishikawa Iesei to me!" Sena Hime was silent for a long time, then walked up to the maids and shouted.

There are almost no men in the Tsukiyama Palace. Sena Hime thinks it's because of Matsudaira Motoyasu's jealousy. Only when there is a heavy dà incident, will Ishikawa Shumasa's uncle's family Lao Hiko Goro Iecheng be called. Iesei's mother, like Yu Da, was also the daughter of Mizuno Tadamasa in Kariya Castle, so Ienari and Matsudaira Motoyasu were cousins. When Hikogoro was led by the maid to the Tsukiyama Palace, the sun had not yet set. His cheeks were flushed and drunk.

"Madame called me something?" Jia Cheng came to the bedroom. After sitting down in front of the door, Sena-hime couldn't help but feel a little disgusted by the smell of alcohol all over his body.

"Is it still forbidden to drink alcohol during the day in this city? Today is Tanabata, a women's festival, why do men ...... I don't understand. ”

Jia Cheng shook his fan. "Today there is a meeting for the renaming of the lord, and a feast is set up in the city."

"What do you say? The lord changed his name? ”

"Yes. From today, it will be changed to Tokugawa Ieyasu, a Tibetan from Matsudaira. Please Madame remember too. Jiacheng smiled knowingly at the corner of his eyes and said calmly.

"Tibetan Tokugawa Ieyasu?"

"Yes. The word 'yuan' in Matsudaira Motoyasu is taken from the late Yoshimoto Gong. Now that he has broken away from Junfu, the lord no longer wants to use 'Yuan' as his name. The word "Kang" is the "Kang" of his grandfather Matsudaira Kiyoyasu, and the reason why he used "home" is probably that the intention of the lord is probably not to rely on anyone's strength from now on, but to rely on the Matsudaira family and rely on his own strength to survive. ”

This unexpected news made Senahime's eyes dark. She is the niece of Yoshimoto Imagawa. This pride sustains her and keeps her going until now, and it is also the only capital she has not been overwhelmed by Matsudaira Motoyasu. Now Matsudaira Motoyasu doesn't even have the word "yuan" in his name. Isn't she an insignificant person to her husband?

"Do you know about Takechiyo and the young lady of the Oda family?"

"Yes."

"In that case, why don't you let me know about it? Even the lowly maid in Sandao City knows? ”

Jiacheng nodded slowly: "The lord considered that his wife was sad and sad about many things, so he decided to find an opportunity to come and explain in person...... This is the Lord's considerate lady. ”

"Thoughtful? I am the niece of Yi Yuangong. He actually wants to marry the Oda family, the enemy who killed his uncle......"

Jia Cheng slowly stopped her with a gesture, and then said, "Don't say that. There are still many people in Okazaki Castle who are resentful of Daisuke Jibu for holding the lord as a hostage in Sunfu for thirteen years. The family image is admonishing a child who is acting ill-conceived, and the tone is slightly reproachful.

Senahime's lips trembled violently, but she had to control the words and words.

Imagawa Yoshimoto's care for the Matsudaira family is so different in the eyes of the people of Sunfu and in the eyes of Okazaki Castle - realizing this, Sena Hime felt even more insignificant about her existence, so she asked, "You mean, the people of Okazaki are very satisfied with this marriage?" ”

"Yes."

"Okay, don't say any more. I went to ask my lord if he was worthy of the Imagawa family in doing this. ”

Ishikawa Ienari pretended not to hear, and said to himself, "The lord seems to have come." ”

The sun has not yet collected its last rays. Tokugawa Ieyasu rarely came here so early, and he probably did it out of affection for his daughter Akame.

"The lord has arrived!" Outside, there was the voice of Koheita Kamihara.

Immediately, the footsteps of the maids hurrying out to greet him were heard in the courtyard, and Tokugawa Ieyasu seemed to have entered the lounge. The maid Awan hurriedly ran to report to Sena Hime. Sena Ji put on the clothes brought by the maid Awan, looked in the mirror, and went out of the bedroom. Her face turned pale, and her dissatisfaction was evident.

"Lord......" She just spoke, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. Full of anger and anger. Still angry. Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't care about Senahime's unusually excited feelings. Looking at the courtyard, he said, "The weather is good, and the Milky Way is also beautiful." You okay? ”

"Lord!" Sena Ji no longer controlled herself, and tears flowed down her face. "I heard that you have changed your name to Tokugawa Ieyasu today?"

"I have to make up my mind. It's a good name. ”

"So...... Imagawa-sama would be glad if he knew anything about Kusen. ”

"Maybe. People must be self-reliant, which is the best reward for their ancestors. ”

Senahime collapsed on top of her husband and cried like a child. "How could he be happy? By doing so, you are completely severing your relationship with Junfu...... You're just trying to prove that you're strong now......"

"Break off the relationship? So what's the matter? At this time, I am afraid that the Imagawa family of Sunfu has been destroyed under the siege of the Enoe-Imagawa family. For the Suruga Imagawa family, the Tokugawa family no longer needs to be guarded, compared to the Imagawa family of Sunfu, what worries me more now is probably the Toe Imagawa family! After listening to his wife Senahime's words, Tokugawa Ieyasu thought to himself.

Of course, he didn't care about his wife's somewhat willful behavior at this time, after all, he also knew the news that his wife's husband and wife were forced to death by the Imagawa family in Sunfu Castle, so he also loved his wife a little, so he simply changed the topic. Then he said: "Today is the Qixi Festival, the festival of the turtle. Bring the turtle here. I want to see her. ”

But Senahime still snuggled up to Tokugawa Ieyasu and couldn't stop crying.

"Yes. The slave maid immediately brought the young lady over. The maid Awan peeked at and stood up cautiously.

Soon after, when the maid Awan led the brightly dressed Kame to Tokugawa Ieyasu, Sena Hime was still in tears. She seemed to want to use her tears to get a few gentle words of comfort from her husband. Standing behind Tokugawa Ieyasu, Koheita Kamihara was holding a sword like a puppet and was at a loss. If no one spoke, Mrs. Tsukiyama's crying probably wouldn't have stopped, but Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't say anything to comfort her.

"Turtle, oh, it's pretty. Come, come to me. ”

"Yes." Turtle looked at his mother, indifferent. The father seemed to be in a good mood. They didn't argue, but the mother was crying alone. A turtle has long been accustomed to the temper of cowardice and arrogance.

"The turtle has grown up. Do you know who is worshipping tonight? ”

"Worship the Weaver Girl."

"Clever boy! You see, there are so many stars in the sky, and one of them belongs to you. ”

"My Star...... In heaven? ”

"That's right. That shouldn't be a sad star...... As long as we nurture with our hearts, you will definitely grow up to be a good child and will be able to live in happiness. ”

At this time, Senahime, who had been crying, suddenly raised her face. "No...... No...... She must not be allowed to marry into the family of the enemy! ”

"What did you say?"

"Takechiyo's future wife! Didn't you decide to marry a young lady of the Oda family without consulting me? ”

"Someone probably sued you about that. I would have said it to you personally. ”

"Takechiyo is still young, and at this time he is still in the hands of Imagawa Fuzero, and the young lady of the Oda family is still just able to walk. You have reluctantly set up a family relationship for them, what if they can't get along in the future? ”

"No, it won't. Men and women will always be intimate. ”

"No, it won't. We were not young back then, and we had carefully considered it, but it was not satisfactory, let alone them! In order to realize his ambition, the father casually set a strange marriage for his son......"

"Tsukiyama!" Tokugawa Ieyasu said sharply, "Don't talk nonsense! ”

"Nonsense? I'm the mother of Chiyo Take...... No, your lady, you have to express your opposition to this marriage. ”

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. I'm thinking about the future happiness of Chiyo Take. ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu gently put down the turtle, then looked at his wife and said, "Don't you know that this is a troubled time?" ”

"Don't digress from the subject."

"Do you think that this troubled world will allow people to have so-called happiness? In this world, poverty and weakness will be eliminated. In order to survive, you must go and kill. Could it be that a helpless woman is free to choose what she loves? My grandmother, because she was born beautiful, experienced the tragic fate of being forced to remarry five times...... It's not just her, you look at the women who have to go to the palace to work in order to make a living, and although they are afraid, they have to sell their youth and flesh behind their backs...... This is the true face of troubled times. ”

Sena Hime turned a deaf ear to Tokugawa Ieyasu's words. She grew up in the gentle drizzle of Sunfu City. Even if you have experienced the life of a hostage before. But her previous life has long formed her willful and stubborn character. She doesn't understand this troubled world.

"You're talking more and more outrageous. I am not one of those women who are forced to sell her virginity. Takechiyo is not a weak man who will die unexpectedly. Don't go for this fateless affair. ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu pursed his lips lightly and kept silent. Koheita Kamihara didn't want to listen to Sena Ji anymore.

Xiao Pingtai, Awan, take Ah Gui down. After a while, Tokugawa Ieyasu said lightly, then turned his head and looked out the window blankly.

As the sun sets, the warm breeze gently shakes the leaves of the cherry trees. Sadness arises spontaneously and makes people drowsy. Women...... Tokugawa Ieyasu thought to himself and couldn't help but let out a long sigh. He felt that there was an insurmountable gap between himself and Senahime. But women are not all like this, Iio Toyozen's widow Lady Kira, Hankeiin (this person is Tokugawa Ieyasu's stepmother, the princess of the Toda family) handmaiden, compared to them, Senahime is like a thick phlegm in the throat, which makes Tokugawa Ieyasu bored and helpless.

Presumably, as Sena Hime said, their union was not consensual. It's a strategic marriage between the Imagawa family and the Matsudaira family. But in this world, there is no time to discuss whether such a marriage is justified or not.

In retrospect. Did Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was a hostage in Sunfu, have the freedom to refuse Senahime? At that time, Tokugawa Ieyasu had to rely on this marriage to save the lives of poor Okazaki people, which was the only purpose at that time. If Sena could understand this, she would have accepted these endless tragedies with a sad heart.

"My lord, even if I strongly oppose it, you still want to go your own way?"

Tokugawa Ieyasu's gaze still did not leave the courtyard. "I'm going to give you a clear explanation. Do you know the current power of the Oda family? ”

"Nope. I only know that the Oda family is the enemy of the Imagawa family. ”

"You calm down first. Why did the Oda family become enemies of the Imagawa family? ”

"Yoshimoto-sama, my uncle, was killed by the Oda family."

"Why was he killed by the Oda family, have you ever wondered? The Imagawa family took the initiative to attack Oda's territory, but was taken by others. ”

"So what?"

"Be quiet! As the defender of the three kingdoms of Suruga, Enoe, and Mikawa, Yoshimoto took the initiative to provoke a war, why was he killed? Don't you think that the Oda family has surpassed the Imagawa family? ”

“……”

"The Owari army, which even Imagawa-sama can't defeat, let me deal with it, do you think I can win? Didn't you realize that it was the balance of power that led me to make such a decision? ”

Hearing Tokugawa Ieyasu say this, Sena Hime suddenly smiled strangely.

"So, does the lord want Takechiyo to pay for your weakness? Haha, it turns out that the lord is willing to be a weak person. ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes suddenly became stern, and he held back his anger and turned his head to stare at his wife. His sharp eyes shocked Senahime. She knew very well how much mockery would provoke a man. An enraged Tokugawa Ieyasu may throw a fan or a fuji at her...... Senahime couldn't help but tense all over, but Tokugawa Ieyasu finally controlled his anger. "Ma'am."

"Yes."

"Actually, we are also victims of strategic marriages, and you probably won't object to this."

"It's because I didn't forget that I didn't want Takechiyo to suffer the same misfortune." In fact, although Sena Hime is a bit arrogant and unreasonable, this sentence speaks to her heart as a mother. Originally, she was still under house arrest as a hostage at the Toe Imagawa family at this time, and her son Takechiyo's experience was miserable enough, but before her son Takechiyo's hostage life ended, as her son Takechiyo's father, he had already arranged a pathetic political marriage, how could she bear it? So, this is just a struggle for her son as a mother to fight for a happy life.

"Good. Don't let him suffer this misfortune. Tokugawa Ieyasu naturally won't pay attention to his wife's thoughts, compared to his wife, he is more concerned about the survival of the governor, if necessary, just like when he decided to abandon his wife and children and declare independence, he will still give up his wife and children again, of course, such a decision naturally can't be said, but he is too lazy to entangle with the wife in front of him, so he said, "If you think that Takechiyo's happiness depends only on marriage." Then I have nothing to say. ”

"So. Have you ever thought about breaking off your marriage? ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu nodded slightly. He added, "But the marriage was initiated by Oda Nobunaga, and if the marriage contract was dissolved, he would be furious." What then? ”

"You sue him, it's not fair to Miss Oda, isn't it over?"

"What if he doesn't listen and instead thinks that the Matsudaira family has no sincerity in forming an alliance and takes the opportunity to declare war on Okazaki?"

"This ......"

"Should we fight him with the determination to die? I'm fighting to the death. You can't live in the world anymore, and there are Takechiyo, Aki, retainers, territories, castles, ......" Tokugawa Ieyasu snapped his fingers slowly.

"You're too cowardly." Senahime trembled and shouted, "Actually, you just agreed to break the marriage contract, but it was just a delaying tactic, and you still want to convince me." ”

"Cowardice? No, it's not cowardice, it's patience, and only with patience can you survive longer and find strong opportunities in it. Facing the ridicule of his wife Senahime. Tokugawa Ieyasu immediately retorted in his heart, but Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was familiar with his wife's character, did not refute his wife in this way. Instead, after a long sigh of relief, he said, "Not necessarily." ”

"Not necessarily?"

"I know you're thinking about Takechiyo's future. Since we are going to perish sooner or later, instead of letting Takechiyo endure the pain every day in the future, it is better to die in battle immediately, and we can also get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible. Or simply anger the Imagawa family of Toe and make him give Takechiyo, who is still under house arrest, a pain. ”

Senahime's eyes widened with rage, and her lips were tightly closed. She was already in a rage, but Tokugawa Ieyasu's ironic words brought her back to her senses. Is it a heroic death, or is it a young lady who accepts Owari and steals her life? When a person is faced with a life-and-death decision, marriage is indeed no longer the only criterion for happiness, and Senahime, although extremely reluctant, has to agree with Tokugawa Ieyasu.

"Ma'am." Tokugawa Ieyasu continued, his every word deeply embedded in Senahime's heart. "I think Oda Nobunaga is amazing. What did Sunfu do when the Matsudaira family was in decline and frustrated? I'm afraid you won't forget jì. They asked me to go to Sunfu as a hostage. Now, what if Oda Nobunaga also makes a request from Michio? For the sake of the whole family, for the sake of Okazaki, I am afraid that I can only hold back my tears and send Takechiyo to Kiyosu as a hostage......"

"No matter how reluctant you are, as a general, you can't watch others kill your own retainers and ravage your own people. If Oda Nobunaga asks us to hand over Takechiyo, I can only rely on him. Do you understand? But Oda Nobunaga did not do that, and took the initiative to send his daughter to Okazaki to ask me to form an alliance with him...... What is more advantageous to hand over Takechiyo and the young lady who accepted Owari......" Tokugawa Ieyasu closed his eyes slightly, and his voice became lower and lower.

Sena-hime cried loudly again. In the past, the niece of the free and willful Imagawa Yoshimoto has now fallen step by step from a high place to a miserable situation, becoming an ordinary mother, which she never expected.

"Oda Nobunaga's approach was impeccable, and I had to say yes. Do you understand? ”

Senahime trembled with excitement. She wanted to shout, but couldn't. Oda Nobunaga and Tokugawa Ieyasu, Owari and Mikawa, this qiē made Sena Hime unbearable. However, what she felt was most ridiculous was that she had to accept this reality or she would not survive. Senahime is full of resentment towards her husband who shows this absurd fact in front of her.

"Do you understand that this troubled world does not allow sentient men and women to come together, so I ......"

Suddenly, Sena Hime smashed the tea bowl in her hand into the courtyard. There were a few thuds, and the offerings placed on the sacrificial table were scattered all over the floor.

Tokugawa Ieyasu's face turned pale suddenly. has been holding back his anger and explaining bitterly, which made him hard and depressed, but he got such a response. His eyes burned with rage, and he grabbed the help table, but did not throw it.

"!" He let out a loud shout and stood up, trying to get out of here right away.

"Do you want to escape? Cowardly person-" Senahime wanted to get up in a hurry, but accidentally stepped on his clothes and fell to the ground. "Lord!"

Tokugawa Ieyasu was already angry and walked towards the door. Sena-hime was still shouting, but her voice was muffled. Tokugawa Ieyasu walked to the entrance, and suddenly, a turtle's voice came from behind him: "Father." ”

Tokugawa Ieyasu turned his head and looked at the turtle, and for a long time, his iron-blue face gradually smiled. Turtle and the maid Awan stood side by side, she looked at Tokugawa Ieyasu, her eyes were a little uneven, a little blamed, and like she was coquettish.

"Are you going back?"

"Turtle!"

"Mother seems to be still saying something."

"What did she say?" Tokugawa Ieyasu moved his mouth and waved his hand, "I'll come again." Tonight you worship with your maid Awan. Be obedient. After speaking, he turned his head to the maid Awan and said, "Accompany Ah Turtle well." ”

"Yes...... Be. The maid Awan knew the entanglement between Tokugawa Ieyasu and Senahime, and she nodded with red eyes.

Tokugawa Ieyasu turned his head sharply and walked out. He looked at the sky after sunset and said to himself blankly: "How is it possible to only give me Tokugawa Ieyasu a warm family?" In these troubled times, men and women are just sad passers-by. ”
