Chapter 2030: Shiba God Kindergarten

Having said this, Yiyin almost jumped to the front stage and presided over the reform and restructuring.

Ii Naomasa was both surprised and delighted, and Maeda Toshimitsu did not dare to make any more suggestions.

There was only one thing that Maeda had to fight for, he bowed his head and cried.

"I dare not go against the good will of the saint, but my child is still very young, and I really... I really can't bear to leave her."

Maeda could tolerate other things, but her daughter Torachiyo was her lifeblood.

The saint was going to summon the descendants of the Sami Sasaki to the city of Tamon. From then on, the mother and daughter would be separated. Thinking about him day and night was really killing her.

Seeing Maeda Yoshitsugu lowering his head and wiping his tears, Yiyin's expression softened.

Yiyin's move did not mean to use his children as hostages at all. It was just that his children were increasing in number and they were all living far away from each other.

There is no emotional exchange between sisters, and when they meet and get along in the future they will be like strangers and be regarded as outsiders.

To put it bluntly, when they start fighting, they will not show any mercy.

Yiyin needs the children to communicate and have feelings for each other, and he also needs to make it a routine and a system for the descendants of Shiba to be raised together from a young age.

he sighed.

  "I just want the children to come to my lap and enjoy my company, not to deprive you of the joy of family life, why are you crying?

I just asked Ii Naomasa why he didn't submit any plans in this regard. It doesn't mean that it should be implemented immediately and brutally.

If you are willing to send the child here today, I am also worried that the servants in Duowenshan Castle will not be able to take good care of the baby who has not yet been weaned."

Maeda Yoshitsu quickly wiped away his tears and laughed.

"I was mistaken. I am truly sorry for causing Your Majesty to laugh at me."

Yiyin felt angry and amused when he saw her smiling with tears in her eyes.

It is definitely impossible to say that Maeda Yuri has no ulterior motives. She is crying and laughing in an attempt to soften the saint's heart, but Yiyin just falls for it.

  This guy, his brain is only good for such useless things. Yiyin would use his own child as a hostage? It's a pity that she could put on such a poor performance!

Maeda's secret test of interests may not be a real intention, but he probably has some doubts in his heart.

Yiyin didn't agree with it.

There are more children and more mothers. Everyone has her own ideas, and her minds are naturally complicated. Instead of letting them have wild thoughts, it is better to point things out yourself.

Yiyin simply told him about the Divine Kindergarten plan he had been thinking of.

“When the descendants of gods in each family are five years old, they will be sent to Duowen Mountain City to attend school. I will prepare the best teachers and the best educational conditions for these children, and train them to become talents worthy of the name of descendants of gods.

During the winter and summer holidays every year, the children can go back to their mother's home to visit their mother. During the spring and autumn festivals, the mother can also come to Duowen Mountain City to see her children.

Your Maeda Yoshi's territory is right next to Tamonyama Castle. If you wish, you can come to visit the children every ten days.

If you still feel reluctant to leave, you might as well just move to Duowen Mountain City."

Yiyin just made a complaint, but who knew that Maeda Lili would take advantage of the opportunity to climb up the ladder and said happily.

"That's great, I'll move right away."

Yiyin didn't wait for her to finish, glared at her and pointed a finger to the side.

"Go away and sit over there."

Maeda Toshihisa smiled cheekily, bowed and then returned to his original position, which made Maeda Rikyuu couldn't help but shake his head.

I don’t know whether this daughter is too smart or too stupid, but anyway, she did a good job.

Although the saint sounded stern and called for reforms, the Maeda interests interfered and the Iga Maeda family, which was originally at the center of the storm, seemed to no longer be the political focus.

Maeda Rikyu finally let go of his anxious heart.

No matter how difficult the days are, as long as everyone is sad, the Iga Maeda family is not afraid.

The law does not punish everyone, and a saint cannot just dismiss everyone. What is there to be afraid of? People have always been concerned about inequality rather than poverty. As long as the Iga Maeda family is not blamed for Gamo Ujisato's death, Maeda Toshihisa will feel at ease.

Yiyin didn't care about the little plans of Maeda mother and daughter at this moment. His original target was not the Iga Maeda family.

The conflict between the Tongxin Secretariat and the Iga Maeda family can only be said to be a coincidence. If she had the chance to do it again, she would not dare to be stubborn again even if it meant killing Maeda's family.

The courage that the Iga Maeda family had to confront the central government was given by the various families in the Sōba region behind them.

Even a speculator like Daizo Changan took the initiative to support Maeda's interests, which shows the complex interest relations between the local areas of Sōba.

If Yiyin wants to reform and innovate, it must first remove the descendants of Sami.

If the others were really stubborn, he wouldn't mind if they all died. But he didn't want any of his wife and children to get hurt, and he couldn't bear the same thing as Gamo Ujisato happening again.

Although he looks young, as if he is sixteen and eternally youthful, his heart has lived two lives and is extremely old. He cannot stand any stimulation.

Letting Maeda deliver the message is to let the various families of the Sasaki clan recognize their own fundamental interests and not get involved.

Letting the descendants of the Sasaki God come to Tamon Mountain Castle is for the children's future, not to take their own children as hostages.

These words must be spoken clearly and thoroughly, without any ambiguity or vagueness.

As for how to deal with the children after they arrive, Yiyin already has a plan prepared.

Yoshigin looked at Ii Naomasa and asked.

"How is Takeda Yoshinobu doing academically?"

Naomasa Ii bowed.

"Your Highness is gifted and intelligent, and has a strong physique. She has already laid a solid foundation in both civil and military arts. I am very optimistic about her."

Yiyin nodded.

"In that case, grant her the position of the Blue Clothes' Chief Penman. After that, each family's descendants of gods will be sent here when they are five years old, and they will all live and study with the Blue Clothes."

Ii Naomasa was stunned and reminded nervously.

"Saint, the little princess is only seven years old this year. Isn't it too early for her to take on the responsibility of the Wu family now?"

That year, Yoshigin entrusted his infant illegitimate daughter Takeda Yoshiyuki to Gamo Ujisato and Ii Naomasa, allowing her to be protected by the Doxinshu group.

Both Gamo Ujisato and Ii Naomasa regarded Takeda Yoshinobu as their own daughter, both teacher and mother, and over the four or five years, they developed a very deep relationship.

Now that Gamo Ujisato is dead, Ii Naomasa values ​​Takeda Yoshinobu even more and trains him as his successor.

If one day they could not bear it and had to step down, or even follow in the footsteps of Gamo Ujisato, then Takeda Yoshinobu would be the successor to their careers.

Ii Naomasa must be happy that Yoshigin values ​​Takeda Yoshinobu, but it is too much to let a seven-year-old child take responsibility.

The Wu family is indeed cruel, but no matter how cruel they are, they will only allow the children to come of age at the age of ten. From then on, they are considered adults and can go into battle and kill people.

The act of a saint asking a seven-year-old child to undertake a specific task was rare even in the eyes of the Wu family.

Seeing that Ii Naomasa looked nervous, Yoshigin knew that she had misunderstood what he said. As the saying goes, "care makes you confused." It was rare for this upright and strong-willed man to show the panic of a little woman.

With a sigh, Yiyin said helplessly.

"Why are you panicking? I didn't send Takeda Yoshinobu to the battlefield.

Since joining the Tongxin Clan, the Blue Clan has been confused and can no longer find its own position.

Since they don't know the future, I will show them a way forward.

The adult blue-shirted people are selected by the Tongxin Secretariat. The outstanding ones are incorporated into the S-Ba organization, while the unsuccessful ones are placed in local areas and are eligible for S-Ba selection.

From now on, the blue-clad generals must return to their original intentions, focus on the ethics of the samurai, learn civil and martial arts, and become outstanding successors of Sōma's new ideas.

"These kids are mainly focused on studying, and Takeda Yoshinobu is just a figurehead. Are you relieved now?"
