Reincarnator Sanboshi's Struggle – Called the Grandson of the Demon King-

July, Tensho 9: Odawara Castle

I don't know if it was love at first sight ...... or not, but as soon as I saw Fujihime, who was introduced to me as my fiancé, I felt an illusion of electric current running through my body.

I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do anything about it.

Even now, there was a warm breeze dancing between us as we stared at each other, as if to celebrate our future together.

I suddenly realized that the people around me were looking at me with loving eyes. We had completely forgotten about our current situation, and as if we were suddenly aware of this, our bodies suddenly warmed up and our cheeks turned bright red.

"Well, it seems you like it,

He pointed out to me in person, and the heat is on my face again. I'm not going to be able to get rid of this ...... for a while.

I'd like to thank you for setting up such a wonderful family unit.

"Hahaha! You will be able to find out what the other members of the group are doing. I'm sure you'll be happy to see them.

When I said that, Ujimasa and Ujinao and their son bowed deeply. I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

...... In the age of warring states, political marriage is the norm and there are many parents who see their children as pawns, but the parent and child in front of me wished for Fujihime's happiness from the bottom of their hearts.

They said, "This child is very important to us as a family. I'd like you to have a happy family. ...... Such thoughts were so true and genuine that I desperately wanted to clench my teeth and suppress my tears.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work for you.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.

I stood up and walked over to Fujihime's side and took her hands in mine. My hands are still small and fragile, but I'm determined to protect them as best I can.

I will definitely make Fujihimedono happy. Please be patient with me.

Fujihime looked a little surprised, but nodded once, as if to bite down on the joy, and then showed me a flowery smile.

'Yes!

Yes, I will definitely keep it alive. I mustn't let this smile cloud my mind, I decided firmly.

After that, there was a peaceful atmosphere in the hall. It is a good idea to have a good time with your friends and family.

I'm not sure if they're going to be able to get it right or not.

And with this one, the marriage alliance between the Oda and Hojo families was officially established. It's the first step in my plan, but I'm relieved to see that it was successfully accomplished.

I'll have to call my grandfather and my father later. The Oda family would now have a key point in the east. It is an important stronghold to control Tokugawa, Takeda, Uesugi, and Oshu, which is of great significance. The unification of the Oda family would be accelerated.

And I have to learn the politics of the Hojo family. I've been interested in it for a while now, and I'm learning a bit about it too.

I've studied some of it, but politics in a democratic society is not suited to this era and I can't do it. After all, it would be best to ask the Hojo family, which was touted as a good government, to teach you a lesson.

Ujinao may have noticed my gaze, but he quickly brought up the subject.

I'd like to learn more about the politics of the Hojo family. ...... It would be great if you could tell me your true intentions.

...... I have a promise to keep the sun at bay. I have to do a festival to make my heart grow fonder. I'm not going to be able to do that, but I know how to do it. By all means, will you teach me how to do it?

When I bowed my head in good faith, Ujinao seemed a bit flustered. I guess he was surprised that I, as a legitimate son of the main family, would go so far as to beg for a lesson from him. Even the chief vassals are buzzing with excitement.

But I don't have the knowledge or power. So, I'm going to have to show you good faith. It is natural for me to bow down.

"Come on, Mr. Three Fathers! Keep your head up! We are always available at .......

Ujinao stood up in a hurry, but Ujimasa controlled it with his hand and came to look at me. The eyes told me that he would not tolerate falsehoods.

I'm not sure why Ujimasa is so compassionate towards his people. You are the successor to the supremacy of your superiors, the ruler of the world. If that is the case, you don't have to worry about your inferiority complex.

Ujimasa's words are certainly a common idea in this era. You don't care about the lives of the people, you just squeeze as much as you can and throw it away when you can't use it anymore ...... You are special as you stand on top of it and can use the people below you like a pawn.

But that's not right!

It's not a pretty saying that people are equal, people are superior or inferior based on birth, environment and talent. That's inevitable.

But that's not a reason to mistreat people. The powerful have a duty to protect the weak. Just like a parent protects their child, everyone has a precious thought in their heart. I mustn't forget that, I think!

He is not standing on tatami to lay down tatami. "I am not standing on the treads to save tatami, but to cover them. He does not exist because he has tamas, but because he has tamas, he can become king. You cannot be king if you forsake the heart that pines for your tissues.

How long has Ujimasa heard my words and never looked back, as if he was deep in thought or silent. Ujimasa and his senior vassals are also watching with bated breath or perhaps silence in the hall.

Ujimasa suddenly opened his eyes, smiled softly and looked at me with loving eyes.

You have already mastered the knowledge of the Hojo family. The head of the Hojo family has inherited the five articles of instruction from generation to generation. In them, it is written that you should be compassionate to all people, from warriors to farmers. There is no such thing as a people who are not in need. ...... It says so. I'm sure Master Sambhosi will preserve the will of the Hojo family for future generations. I hope you will be a good king. Our House of Hojo will do its best for the sake of Master Sanboshi for the rest of our lives.

When he said this, Ujimasa prostrated himself deeply.

And when I saw Ujimasa bowing, Ujinao and all the other officials prostrate themselves in unison, I couldn't stop crying.

I was more than happy to see so many wonderful people recognizing me and entrusting me with their thoughts.

Ha! ...... Thank you very much, thank you very much.

I would like to introduce to you, Master Sotetsu of Gen'an, the youngest son of Soun, the founder of the Hojo Family, who has long supported the head of the Hojo Family. He is the youngest son of Soun, the founder of the Hojo Family, and has long supported the head of the Hojo Family. I am sure that he will be a great help to you, Mr. Sanboshi. As I recall, he is currently in Hakone, where he is curing himself in a hot spring bath, or would you like me to summon him?

Hojo Soun is a long time ago, isn't he? I'm not sure how old Genan Moutetsu is then? It is not so insane as to summon an old man who is recuperating in a hot spring.

I'll go first. It's not a problem.

"If you're on ......, I'll send you a statement, so please depart at your convenience, Master Sambhala.

"I'm sorry for the overlap, I'm sorry for the damage.

As I was feeling a little intimidated by the very thoroughness of the response, Fujihime suddenly spoke up.

Father, I will accompany Master Sambhoge. As your fiancée, you don't mind, do you?

"Hmmm. ...... What about you, Mr. Three Laws? If this is inconvenient for you, we will refrain from doing so. ......

I was a little surprised at Fujihime's request, but I was honestly happy that she wanted to go with me as her fiancé.

I'd be very grateful if you could come with me.

"Left-handedness, in that case, I'll prepare this one too. Don't bother the Three Fathers, Fuji, don't bother them.

I know. Thank you.

As Fujihime's words closed the meeting, Ujinao stood up and spread his hands wide and announced to his chief advisors, "All of you, we will do our best to help the Oda family and, by extension, Sanboshi.

The Hojo family will make every effort to support not only the Oda family but also the Three Fathers. And know it!

"Gyoi!

Ujinao, who confirmed the will of the shoguns, smiled softly and the atmosphere of the hall became somewhat relaxed.

It's a good idea to have a good time. Tonight is a banquet to celebrate the engagement of Sanboshi and Fujiwara! Get ready now!

"Haha!

After Ujinao's words, everyone began to prepare for the event. Everyone was smiling throughout the banquet, and I could tell that they were celebrating our future from the bottom of their hearts, which naturally made Fujihime and I smile as well.

Thus, we decided on our next destination.

Hakone, where the heavyweight Gen'an Munetetsu-dono, who has supported the Hojo family for a long time, is located. It was going to be a great encounter. Yes, I was now looking forward to it.
