Chapter 964 Takeda's Daughter

When Shiba Yoshigin was in Echigo, he struggled to make peace with each other, easing the growing hostility of the Kanto Office towards the Uesugi family.

In the Suruga country of Tōkaidō, inside the castle tower of Sufu Castle, the screams of women resounded through the sky.

Outside Takeda Harunobu's living room, Masanobu Kosaka was sitting on a horse harness in the atrium with all his clothes.

Today's castle tower is heavily guarded inside and outside, and Takeda Harunobu's most trusted banner is handed over to Kosaka Masanobu, and the atmosphere is like the main shogunate on the battlefield.

Hearing Takeda Harunobu's cry of pain from behind, Kosaka Masanobu turned blue, bit his lower lip and clenched his fist.

There are only the sharp orders of the midwives and the running footsteps of the midwives.

"Get the hot water quickly! Bring it here! Push hard! Take a deep breath! Continue to boil the water!"

At this moment, a Ji warrior walked quickly into the outer room, and several people from the surrounding banners had already stepped forward with their guns, as if they were facing a big enemy.

"Takasaka Hime, it's me!"

Masanobu Kosaka said coldly without raising his head.

"go out!"

The visitor was stunned for a moment, then glanced at the inner court behind her, a little hesitant.

Kosaka Masanobu stood up, took a step with a gun, and shouted.

"go out!"

Intimidated by her aura, the visitor couldn't help but take a step back, his face immediately flushed red.This is Nobushiro Takeda, the head of the Takeda clan after Nobushige Takeda's death.

As the head of a sect, he should have been the number one member of the Takeda family under Takeda Harunobu.But when Harunobu Takeda gave birth, he ordered Masanobu Kosaka to guard the castle tower and exclude her.

Originally, I felt that I had been slapped in the face, red hot and painful.Now being shocked by Kosaka Masanobu's murderous aura, he retreated, hurting his self-esteem even more.

Takeda Noburen couldn't help saying angrily.

"Masanobu Kosaka! What do you mean? Are you treating me like a thief?
What kind of attitude do you have! "

Kosaka Masanobu raised his gun and said coldly.

"My lord has ordered me to guard the tower and not allow anyone to disturb her retreat. If there is any trespasser, regardless of their status, they will be killed on the spot!

Takeda Noburen-sama, don't make things difficult for me, please get out! "

Takeda Noburen was irritated by her tough attitude, and took a step forward and said.

"I want to see who dares to kill me!"

Takeda Noburen is the head of the sect and the younger sister of Takeda Harunobu.Although Takeda Harunobu retreated in the name of Qingxiu, everyone in Kai knew very well that his lord was giving birth.

In ancient times, it was a hell to have a child. Although Ji Wushi had an unusual physique and rarely had dystocia, Shiba Yoshiyin's child was hard to say.

Takeda Harunobu was ten months pregnant, so she didn't feel comfortable for a day, and she suffered a lot.The samurai under his command inevitably worried that there would be a catastrophe during childbirth.

If something happens to Takeda Harunobu, she has not married a daughter yet, and Takeda Noburen is the most likely next governor of the Takeda family.

Because of this, Kosaka Masanobu was very vigilant about her sudden visit, which caused this tense scene.

Noburen Takeda refused to retreat, and put his hand on the handle of the knife.Kosaka Masanobu took another step, and was about to stab the spear in his hand.

At this moment, in the inner courtyard behind her, Takeda Harunobu's shouts stopped abruptly, followed by the cry of a baby and the joyful shout of a midwife.

"Born! Born!"

The two concubines who were facing each other outside looked at the direction of the inner court at the same time. Masanobu Takasaka looked happy, but Noburen Takeda froze for a moment, and then squeezed out an overjoyed expression.

The midwife hurried out of the inner court, knelt in front of Masanobu Kosaka, and said.

"My lord, His Highness has given birth."

Kosaka Masanobu asked nervously.

"How is the master?"

"His Royal Highness is fine, but he is exhausted. The child is also fine, mother and daughter are safe."

Hearing that the mother and daughter were safe, Kosaka Masanobu's face slowly relaxed.Noburen Takeda's heart tightened, and he pretended to ask a question naturally.

"Is it a baby girl?"

The midwife kowtowed to Noburen Takeda and said.

"It's a princess."

Masanobu Kosaka interrupted Noburen Takeda's questioning in a cold voice, and said to the midwife.

"Okay, go in and do things, you are not needed outside."

said the midwife.

"It was His Highness who ordered me to come out. Please, Lord Gaosaka, go in with the adults who quarreled with you."

Kosaka Masanobu was stunned for a moment.

The inner courtyard of the atrium is not large, and it seems that the voices of the two arguing are too loud for Harunobu Takeda, who is in labor, to notice it.

Kosaka Masanobu glanced at Takeda Noburen with a stiff face, and said.

"Master Xin Lian, don't you want to see the Lord? Please."

Noburen Takeda groaned in her heart. Originally, she saw that Harunobu Takeda hadn't given birth smoothly for such a long time, so she thought something happened, so she came to test it out.

Just before Harunobu Takeda gave birth, he had a conflict with Masanobu Kosaka.Now that the child is born and the mother and daughter are safe, she has been hit by a knife.

Although he had already prepared several reasons for asking for an interview when he came, but Harunobu Takeda was wise and wise, and it was inevitable that there would be pimples in his heart, fearing that it would be bad for him in the future.

But at this moment, there was no room for hesitation, she nodded and walked in.

The room where the production was made just now was stuffy, airtight inside and out.The two followed the midwife carefully into the room, and cautiously approached the delivery bed on the tatami.

Takeda Harunobu lay sideways on the thick pillow, his hair was disheveled, and a few strands were stuck to his forehead.Her face was pale and her eyes were closed tightly, as if she was asleep.

Masanobu Kosaka felt pain in his heart when he saw her in such a mess, knelt beside the bed and said in a low voice.

"Your Highness?"

Takeda Harunobu slowly opened his eyes and smiled at his same-sex lover.

"I'm fine, I just exerted too much force and I'm a little tired. That guy's seed finally finished me off.

It's a good thing you didn't conceive, it's really amazing, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive. "

After finishing speaking, she did not look at Kosaka Masanobu's embarrassed face, and asked Takeda Noburen who followed him.

"How did you come?"

Takeda Noburen knelt down to salute, and said with concern.

"Sister, are you okay?"

Takeda Harunobu half-closed his eyes to look at her, seeing her dripping with sweat, feeling that the airless delivery room was getting hotter and hotter.

"Of course I'm fine. You insist on coming in. What's the matter?"

Noburen Takeda stammered.

"You are retreating and practicing, the Suruga people outside are restless, especially the Sena and Geshan families are secretly joining forces. I am worried that they will take the opportunity to make trouble, so I came to report.

There was another news from Yuanjiang that Tokugawa Ieyasu, who besieged Kakegawa Castle, had reached an agreement with Asahina Taicha in the city.

Asahina Tai surrendered to Kaesong, Tokugawa Ieyasu did not make things difficult for her, and allowed her to go to Izu country by boat and join Imagawa Shima.

Now that the internal and external situation is uneasy, I am afraid of chaos, so I come here to ask for instructions. "

Takeda Harunobu nodded and said something lightly.

"I see."

Takeda Noburen was stunned on the spot, not knowing whether this sentence was a compliment or a derogation, he didn't dare to respond for a while.

Seeing that she was so afraid of him, Takeda Harunobu chuckled and said.

"I know, you go back first."

It was only then that Noburen Takeda saluted hurriedly and left as if he had received an amnesty.Kosaka Masanobu couldn't help snorting as he watched her leaving in embarrassment.
