A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

Mrs. Longtail was fed a bowl of brown sugar water, and the maid gently stroked her back. She breathed slowly, and she slowly woke up.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" Tokugawa Nagata is not a gynecologist, but such trivial matters don't bother him, so he just asks questions normally after the illness.

"No, I'm fine." Of course Mrs. Longtail's problem was not big, it was just a moment of excitement and pregnancy.

"The fetus in Your Majesty Suzhini's belly is very healthy. Please rest assured in the future." Nagata Tokumoto naturally couldn't identify a boy or a girl just by taking the pulse, but he could feel out the month and fetal appearance.

"I was a little skeptical at first. I never thought that Shinshu would keep him." This was not Mrs. Nagao's first time giving birth, so her pregnancy reaction was not as severe as before. In addition, there were too many things going on recently, and her thoughts were all on Taro Yamauchi, so it took more than four to five months before she was diagnosed.

Logically speaking, the pregnancy has been obvious for more than four months. If we don't find out this time, everyone will know it in less than two days.

In terms of days, it was indeed Yamauchi Yoshikatsu who came once before setting off and successfully created humans. But at this time, it would be really embarrassing for Mrs. Longtail to have another son.

It would be nice if Harumiya Hosokawa only said it was a girl.

If it is a girl, everyone will be happy. Yamauchi Yisheng will have both sons and daughters, and she will be smiling. Mrs. Changwei has an extra little princess, Cheng Huan, and someone to rely on for the rest of her life. Yamauchi Taro got the biggest advantage. With an extra sister, he could win over a good brother-in-law in the future.

But what about a son?

…

Everyone exited the inner hall, and Chief Yamauchi quickly arranged for an ox cart to take his eldest brother to Komaba Hot Spring for rest. Today's post-illness rehabilitation is so shabby and there are few treatment methods. The first idea is to go to a hot spring for recuperation.

From now on, everyone will send letters to Komachi every day to report all matters in the community. Although it is cumbersome, there is no other way. After all, this is still the era when Yamauchi Yoshiharu is in charge.

Xiaoheita looked at the current bullock carts, which could kill half of Yamauchi Yoshiji's life. As for the sedan chair, don't make people laugh. In the words of one reader, a Japanese sedan is like stuffing a piece of meat into a large square box.

It would be better to find a few strong men and take turns carrying Yamauchi Yoshiharu to Komaba. At least this way he won't get bumpy. He just needs to wear two more layers to prevent him from catching the cold in the autumn wind.

Chief Accountant Yamauchi thought about it but refused. After all, if Yamauchi Yoshiharu was carried to Komaba on his back, not only would it be inappropriate, but many people would also see that his body was in ruins.

In the end, two quilts were laid out in the oxcart, and an extremely warm and soft mattress was woven from fine sea otter skin, and Yamauchi was cushioned in layers to avoid bumps.

Koheita and Hosokawa and his son watched the bullock cart leave, and the others dispersed. Koheita lived with his old father-in-law and elder brother-in-law, so they went back together.

"I wonder how long your highness can postpone it?" Hosokawa Saime was loyal to the Yamauchi family. He asked this with genuine emotion.

"I think His Highness can still eat, and he should be able to live for a long time." Koheita asked Murakami Yoshimitsu before. Although Yamauchi Yoshiharu's appetite has dropped, he can still eat three meals a day, and not all of them. fluid food.

"Your Highness, it's just that the autumn wind has picked up recently and you can't bear the cold." Hosokawa Harumiya felt the same way, not knowing that she was older. It’s really just to comfort people and say nice things.

"After that, the two of you will take turns to visit the horse farm and inform me of His Highness's current situation."

"Yes!" "Okay, I know."

The two of them agreed quickly. They couldn't let Hosokawa Harugong ride to the horse farm every day. There happens to be a son and a son-in-law. If you don’t send them, who can you send?

"Sir, is there a fetus in Suzyni's belly?..." Koheita still wanted to ask Hosokawa Chungong about this matter. Where is the old man's knowledge? For a boss who has been fighting against each other for more than sixty years, many things are better than Xiaoping could see clearly.

Upon hearing Koheta's question, Hosokawa Saime also turned her head to look at his father, who was the child of his good brother Yamauchi Yoshikatsu, but this time period was not the right time, and he also wanted to hear his father's opinion.

"It's still early, so there's no need to be too anxious, but I'm more than four months pregnant and still have half a year to think about it."

Hosokawa Harugong only knew about this, and for the moment she didn't think about the consequences.

"His Royal Highness has made several arrangements to arrange for other His Highnesses to succeed and become associated with many national tycoons, all for the smooth transition of His Highness Taro. Now there is another variable, which is really difficult to handle."

Even if he gave birth to a son, a baby would naturally be nothing. Even if we want to stir up trouble and trouble, it will take more than ten or twenty years.

But there is a saying that the tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop!

This child is the direct descendant of the Qinghe Minamoto clan, and his identity as the direct son of the Shinshu Yamauchi clan lies there. As long as someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of this identity, it will be a disaster.

A common man is not guilty of carrying a jade. That's the truth. There is nothing wrong with the child, the only fault is that his bloodline is too noble.

Several people walked a few steps forward with their heads down, thinking about this matter, and no one said a word.

"Heita Kohei, how old is His Highness the Echigo Governor this year?" Hosokawa Harumiya asked for no reason.

"Thirty-six if I remember correctly? Or thirty-seven?" When Koheita met Uesugi Teruhora for the first time in Kyouchi, he was still a little big brother in his twenties, and so many years passed in a flash.

"You've never been married, right?"

"That's natural. His Majesty the Governor has made a great wish to sacrifice his life to become a Buddha."

"The boss is saying that!"

Xiaoping quickly realized that Mrs. Nagao was absolutely the biological daughter of the Echigo Nagao clan. She and Uesugi Teruhu have the same blood, and they are truly family members.

"Let's not mention it for now. You will take a leave in two days and go to Echigo. Your Highness should be informed of this matter in advance. I will also mention it to the chief planner, the palace and others."

Koheita happened to be in charge of the Uesugi family's diplomatic affairs. It was normal for him to go to the Uesugi family and would not attract other people's attention. Moreover, it is not easy to disclose such private matters to the public.

"Your Highness, you don't know what to think about?" Koheita was still concerned about Yamauchi Yoshiharu's thoughts.

"I will also personally report to Your Highness, and we will confirm it after Suzyni gives birth."

"It must be kept confidential at this time and do not spread it to other people's ears."

Hosokawa Harumiya seriously warned Koheita and Hosokawa Saime that the matter should be kept secret for the time being.

And Koheita also had his own thoughts. According to his memory, Nagao Kekei, who later became Uesugi Kagekatsu, had already been born. It is unknown whether he will be favored by Teru Uesugi, but as the son of Sentoin, he is also the nephew of Teru Uesugi.

If Kodaira went to mention to Uesugi Teruhora about the fetus in Mrs. Nagao's belly, I don't know what he would think.
