different warring states of japan

Chapter 1264 The scandal of the year

Minister Irobe knew that Uesugi Terutora would not be willing to compensate the Irobe family for the new Kanto territory lost this time from the land of Echigo Kingdom.

Then she took the initiative to ask for Ying, named Sano Masatsuna, and obtained what she needed from this traitor.

The color director really knows very well that Uesugi Terutora is by no means a person who swallows his anger.

The two traitors, Moori Jingguang and Sano Masaotsuna, were entrenched in the stable bridge collar and the Sano collar respectively, blocking the way for the Echigo army to go south. Terotora Uesugi must pull out these two nails.

Terutora Uesugi lived temporarily in Numata Castle, and refused to return to Kasugayama Castle in the Echigo Kingdom, but he couldn't swallow the breath and wanted to go south again. The military mobilization in the rear has never stopped.

Minister Irobe volunteered to join the war. After taking down the Sano collar, Uesugi Terotora would definitely return the lost territory of the Irobe family to himself.

What's more, relying on the military exploits of this battle, Se Changshi is likely to be rewarded with more land.

Sano Masaosuna, a fool on the wall, offended the Hojo family and the Uesugi family back and forth. She thought she was proud of jumping left and right, but it was actually a way of death.

Uesugi's army went south to attack the Sano leader, and the Hojo family would never come to rescue her, repeating the original Sano leader's joint battle.

That battle cast a psychological shadow on the Hojo family.Hojo Shiyasu managed to win a round, and he would never take his family luck to take risks easily.

In this way, the Irobe family can not only get back the lost territory, but Minister Irobe understands the requirements of current affairs, and also gains Uesugi Terutoro's favor.

Kill two birds with one stone.

Terutora Uesugi softened his complexion because of Shiro's honest and sensible answer, raised his wine glass to the sky, and said.

"I promise you, Irobe Katsunaga will not die in vain, I will make Sano Masatsuna pay the price.

Come, let's toast your mother together. "

"Hi!"

The two of them drank a pot, Shiroji wiped his mouth, looked at Terutora Uesugi, with a strange brilliance in his eyes.

It stands to reason that Irobe Katsunaga's warning to her was correct.The Irobe family can't offend Shiba Yoshigin, and the Irobe minister should be more peaceful and try to forget about that incident for the sake of the continuation of the family business.

But the hatred that penetrated to the bone marrow cut her heart like a knife.

Minister Shiro really understands that discrediting Yoshihiro Shiba's reputation and bringing this matter to Uesugi Terutoro will not only do him no good, but there is also a great risk of being angered by Uesugi Terutoro.

But she just wasn't reconciled, not reconciled to that bitch Shiba Yoshihiro being comfortable.She just wanted to shake off the scandal that Takeda Harunobu had slandered Shiba Yoshigin's daughter.

This matter has nothing to do with profit, it is just to have fun, to vent the grievances that have been pent up in her heart for many years.

Uesugi Terutoro drank a pot of wine, seeing Minister Se stared blankly at him in a daze, and said with a smile.

"What? Is this wine not to your liking?"

Se Changshi's eyes turned red, he lowered his head and secretly wiped his eyes with his sleeve, pretending to be crying.

"Drink with the lord today, the wine is good wine, but in my heart, I feel a little sad for you."

Uesugi Terutora was a little confused.

"Feeling sorry for me?
On the battlefield, life and death are fate, and wealth is in the sky.If you lose, you lose. At worst, you win back next time.

Well, big girls, don't cry and cry, just imitate that man and make people laugh. "

Uesugi Terutora obviously misunderstood, thinking that the minister of color was really sad because of his drunkenness.

In fact, she used alcohol to relieve her sorrow, not for the war, but for the love in her heart.

In this expedition, Uesugi Terotora deceived Shiba Yoshiyin and went alone.After the defeat, she really didn't know how to explain to her sweetheart.

She may not care about the defeat, but she really doesn't want to face Shiba Yoshigin's disappointed eyes.

Worry to the depths, so I had no choice but to stay drunk or sleepless.

Minister Se's eyes flashed, and he continued his performance, hesitant to speak, laughed dryly, raised his head and drank his own pot of wine.

She was so pretentious, but instead attracted Uesugi Terutor's attention, and asked doubtfully.

"Is it something else?"

Se Minister really looked hesitant, then fell deeply on the ground, and said.

"My lord's love for Odaisho is well known in Echigo.

You know, I've been staying in Kitashinano for a long time, and I've learned some news.When I found out, I was also terrified.

But the lord treats me and Sebu's family with deep affection, I can't bear the lord being kept in the dark by outsiders, so I lost my way and wept. "

Terutor Uesugi put down the new jug he had picked up just now, and looked at Seiko with a solemn face.

"North Shinano? What did you hear in North Shin?"

Seiko gritted his teeth and breathed heavily.This is her last chance, and it's too late to regret it now.

But thinking of the tragic death of Shibata's family, and of the smug Shigecho Honjo, the resentment in Sebushi's heart was like poison eroding her sanity, causing her restraint to gradually disintegrate.

She lowered her head and said quietly.

"His Highness Takeda conquered the Suruga Kingdom with lightning speed, but when Echigo's army marched south to fight the Hojo family, His Highness Takeda did not move.

Don't you think this is strange, my lord?With His Highness Takeda's wisdom, didn't he know how to take advantage of the situation and stab the Hojo family in the back? "

Uesugi Terutora snorted and said.

"She is sitting on the mountain watching the tigers fight, and she wants to wait for me and Shiyasu Hojo to lose both before going down the mountain to pick peaches.

It's a pity that the Hojo family lost too badly and quickly in the battle of the Sano leader. Before she could react, our army surrounded Odawara Castle.

Is she, Takeda Harunobu, willing to make a wedding dress for me?I had no choice but to stand still. "

There was a weird smile on the face of Irocho's lowered head, but Terotora Uesugi couldn't see it.

she said slowly.

"Not so far as I know."

Uesugi Terutoro glanced at the back of her prostrate head and frowned.

"Oh? What do you say?"

Minister Se gritted his molars and said slowly.

"It is said that His Highness Takeda adopted a baby girl on his way back to the city of Kai. After returning, he became a monk and practiced under the name of Shingen."

Uesugi Terutora felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, and hummed.

"What the hell are you talking about!"

Seiko raised his head, looked directly at Terutor Uesugi, and said word for word.

"It was rumored in Kita Shinano that her adopted daughter was not adopted...but...stayed in Sunfu Castle because she was giving birth...

When I gave birth to a daughter, it was summer. "

Uesugi Terutoro was a little confused at first, mumbling and repeating.

"Summer... gave birth to a daughter..."

Uesugi Terutoro's eyes widened, because she suddenly realized that she was pregnant in October.

October of pregnancy is just an imaginary number. The actual pregnancy cycle is nine and a half months.Calculated according to the days when Takeda Harunobu was not in bed, when she was pregnant, it was around the time of the Battle of Kawanakajima.

In the battle of Kawanakajima, Takeda and Uesugi's two elites came out, and if they were not careful, the family business would be ruined.How could Takeda Harunobu be interested in playing with men at that critical moment?

unless. .The Takeda family suffered heavy casualties in the Battle of Kawanakajima, and even lost Takeda Harunobu's closest sister, Takeda Nobushige.

Thinking of Shiba Yoshigin being arrested in Yantian Castle, and thinking of the funeral of Takeda Nobushige held in Yantian Castle, Uesugi Terutora only felt a buzzing in his head, and instantly went blank.

Uesugi Terutora didn't want to believe it, he couldn't even believe it, would Harunobu Takeda do such a shameless thing?If she really did, why didn't Shibo Yoshihiro tell himself?

Looking back now, at the time of Beixin, Shiba Yoshiyin's return was indeed a bit weird.

Uesugi Terutora's hand couldn't help shaking, she held it tightly and growled in a low voice.

"How dare you talk nonsense and slander Kenshin's reputation, I want your life!"

Uesugi Terutora, as the great name of the pioneering party, is majestic and majestic.Now his eyes are piercing Se Changshi, showing murderous intent, how can Se Changshi bear it.

She fell to the ground deeply and said.

"I don't dare! I just tell His Highness what I have seen and heard, and I dare not hide anything!
As far as I know, His Majesty Takeda's evil deeds are not a secret in the Wu family. As long as someone is sent to investigate carefully, there will be results. "

Uesugi Terutoro looked at her, actually already had some faith in his heart.How much courage does the color minister really have?How dare she slander Shiba Yoshihiro?
It's just that Uesugi Terutoro couldn't accept this matter, and she had to doubt the true intentions of Iroku.Confessing such a scandal out of loyalty?This is allegiance?still. .revenge?
The corners of Uesugi Terutora's eyes twitched, no matter how he thought about it, Iroko really didn't reveal the truth of this matter.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

Uesugi Terutora looked gloomy at Seiko, which frightened her so much that her back was soaked in cold sweat, her legs and feet were weak, and her fear overwhelmed her resentment.

Iroka's head, which was really hot, finally cooled down in fear.She was a little relieved, and even more afraid.

Shiba Yoshigin came to Echigo Kingdom, helped Uesugi Terutora to keep the core Nagao Clan in Kawanaka Island, and completely dismantled the Yangbei Clan through the Shibata Rebellion.

This made the situation of the Irobe family very embarrassing.

Sebu Katsucho, two generations of old ministers, has meritorious support on the one hand, but on the other hand he has raised the self-esteem of the northern people, and holds a pivotal position in Uesugi's family.

However, today's Irobe family is not up or down.In Uesugi's family, he is not considered a direct descendant, and without the endorsement of Yang Beizhong, a powerful Wu family group, his own value has dropped too much.

All this is because of Shiba Yoshigin, coupled with Iroshi's personal resentment, that made her desperate to expose Takeda Harunobu's evil deeds.

Could it be that no one really heard anything about Takeda Harunobu's contamination of Shiba Yoshinobu?Why don't other people go deep into it, don't verify it?Are you actually the smartest?

Katsunaga Irobe had just fished out his daughter from the corner of Beixinano, but he was so frightened by the news that he sent his daughter back to his hometown to contemplate behind closed doors. Why?
Because this matter is broken, it is not good for anyone!

Shiba Yoshigin, Takeda Harunobu, Uesugi Terutora three people's children's affair, the samurai don't care, they only care about their own interests.

Against the backdrop of the Echigo duopoly and the Uesugi and Takeda families strategically encircling the Hojo family, no one is willing to expose Takeda Harunobu's smearing of Shiba Yoshiyin's birth of a daughter.

The exposure of this matter will not benefit the Shiba Uesugi Takeda family.

Ke Sechang really harbored deep resentment, and was so hotheaded that he brought this matter up at once.Uesugi Terutoro was angry that he was kept in the dark, and he had to doubt the true intentions of the minister.

It wasn't until this moment that Seri Changshi, who had calmed down, felt scared. This incident seemed to be imagined to be more troublesome, and it made him unable to escape.

She was trembling and wanted to say something, but she didn't dare to speak, so she fell down deeply.

Uesugi Terutoro's murderous eyes swept across Shiro's neck, and finally took a deep breath and said sharply.

"This matter is over.

I don't care where you hear the nonsense, it comes out of your mouth and into my ears, only you and I know it.

Do you understand! "

"Hi!"

Sechang, who was in a cold sweat, didn't get the revenge she imagined, she kowtowed and agreed.

Uesugi Terutora glanced at her with disgust, raised the jug again, and said lightly.

"You go back."

Minister Se felt relieved, saluted and left, and hurriedly left the atrium.

Terutora Uesugi held the jug and wanted to pour it into his mouth several times, but he couldn't drink it.After a while, she slammed the jug on the ground and roared in a low voice.

"Takeda Harunobu! You beast! Beast!"

She stood up, kicked over the empty wine jugs around her, then turned and shouted.

"Come on!"

Hatakemoto behind him stepped forward and bowed to listen to the order, Uesugi Terutoro said with a gloomy expression.

"Let Nakanishi come to see me! Immediately!"

"Hi!"

Nakanishi is the leader of the Xuanyuan Ninja under the Uesugi family.

Although Uesugi Terutoro had already believed in the words of Iroko, she still had a glimmer of hope that the news about Iroko was false.

She wants to investigate this matter thoroughly, thoroughly!
Soon, Nakanishi rushed to the atrium.

She was about to salute when she was interrupted by Uesugi Terutoro.

"Go to Kai country immediately and find out one thing for me.

Is the daughter Harunobu Takeda who claims to be adopted is her own flesh and blood?
Remember, track it down and don't let anyone know about it! "

Nakanishi took the order, turned around and left.She could tell that the lord's mood was very unstable, on the verge of eruption, and she didn't want to be in trouble.

The Xuanyuan ninja of the Uesugi family are not as humble as the Iga ninja of the Shiba family.Only by being cautious can you live longer.

Terutor Uesugi stared coldly at Nakanishi who was leaving, and stood in the courtyard without speaking for a long time, wondering what he was thinking.

Until Banner came to report, Naoe Kanesuke asked for an interview.

Uesugi Terutora couldn't help frowning, why is she here?Naoe Kanetsugu is mainly responsible for the affairs of the Naoe Tsuguan Office. Could it be that there is a change in the Hokuriku Road business route?

Because the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Naoe family cooperated with the Shiba family on the Hokuriku Road trade route, they had a good relationship.Therefore, when negotiating with the Kanto Servant, Uesugi Terutora mostly left it to Naoe's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

Naoe Ketsuna's domestic affairs in Echigo were complicated, and Naoe Kanetsugu's task was not light.What happened that required the daughter-in-law of the Zhijiang family to come and report in person?
Could it be. .Is it related to the Kanto Chamberlain?

Uesugi Terutoro's face was cold, and Echigo's duopolitical politics made it difficult for her to intervene in the Kanto Office under Shiba Yoshigin's command. She was constantly constrained in doing things and was quite passive.

The defeat of the Shimoso Kingdom this time was also because the Kanto servants did not listen to the call, which resulted in half of the strength of the Echigo army being unable to be used, so the Hojo family took advantage of it.

If it weren't for Shimakatsu's keen understanding of the general situation, and finally persuaded the army of the Kanto Office to come to help, Uesugi Terotora was almost folded in when he was defeated.
