With the cheers of many retainers, Asai Kenmasato succeeded to the throne and became the next head of the Asai family. His first order was to strengthen military preparations, train soldiers, recruit the savings saved over the years, and strengthen training. At the same time, he also chased and released many lords and retainers of the Hexake family in one fell swoop. For a moment, the Asai family was completely renewed and exuded a long-lost spirit from the inside out. In particular, Asai Kenmasato's own flag-born eagle preparation was even more overtime, and he practiced day and night.

Afterwards, Kenmasa Asai signed a secret alliance treaty with Toshi Semine. The content of the treaty was not very detailed, but just roughly finalized the framework for cooperation between the two parties.

Later, Kenmasa Asai sent his wife Hirai back to the Hexao family, with an attitude of breaking with the Hexao family on the surface. Yu Qiuhei had quite a complaint about this. On the day when Kenmasa Asai bid farewell to his wife, he found Kenmasa Asai.

"Xinjiro," Yu Qiuping asked with some dissatisfaction, "Why do you want to send your younger brother and sister away? Don't you love her?"

Kenmasa Asai was stunned for a moment, and his expression was a little lonely. After a long time, the boy who had always been resolute and courageous had red eyes.

"Love, how could you not love?" Asai Kenmasato shook his head, "This is nothing to do."

"How many lovers who are related to politics... can follow their feelings and feel the last one?"

The speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.

Yu Qiuping raised his head and looked up at the starry sky so that tears would not flow down.

"Brother, there is another thing." Kenmasato Asai suddenly said, "I hope to abandon the word "媠" in my name and give the word "媠" to Hexao Yoshiki. Since it has been decided to break up with the Hexao family, the word "媠" should be abandoned together."

"What's the name of "Zhangzheng?" Yu Qiuping said immediately. He didn't want the name Asai Nagamasa to appear. In "Warring States Invincible", Ashi's shouts of "Sakama" made him quite touched.

"Asai Nagamasa..." Asai Nagamasa muttered a few times, "thank you brother for giving your name."

"But since you have divorced your wife and changed your name, you obviously have completely broken up with the Hexao family." Yu Qiuping instructed, "Hexao Yoshi-hyun must be unable to bear such a thing, you must start preparing for the war."

On July 22, the Imakawa family's mission left Otani Castle. After taking a boat on the east shore of Lake Biwa, he arrived at the west shore of Lake Biwa, continued to travel west, and stopped and arrived in Kyoto on July 25.

As the location of the imperial court and the shogunate, Kyoto was a veritable political center in the Taiping period. Because it was in the rich Kinki, it was very prosperous in business and had a large population.

However, since the Yingren Rebellion, wars in the Kinki region have continued. Recently, several major battles between the Miyoshi family against the Hosokawa family, the Hexaki family and the General family have revolved around Kyoto, causing great damage to Kyoto. Although Miyoshi Nagaki issued three bans the previous year to start rectifying public order and restoring Kyoto order, last year's Battle of Shirakawaguchi made Kyoto in war.

In the Battle of Shirakawaguchi, although the Miyo Family defeated Hosokawa Harumo and Ashikaga Yoshiki again, under pressure from other daimyos and noble families in Kinki, such as the Hexaki Family, he still welcomed Ashikaga Yoshiki back to Nijo Oku. However, although Ashikaga Yoshiki returned to the location of the shogunate, his rights were still very limited. Yama Castle Ichiko was still under the control of the Miyo Family, and the areas he could manage were only the villages and towns around Nijo Oku.

However, the newly appointed general of the Congyi was young and promising, and was committed to restoring the former dignity of the shogunate. He was trying to start from two aspects. On the one hand, he regained prestige by mediating the disputes between daimyo and granting local strong and famous positions and names. On the other hand, he should manage the surrounding castles and towns well, display his limited strength, and win over the wealthy families in Kinki.

Therefore, when Yu Qiuping and his group came to Kyoto, although the city had not yet completely emerged from the years of war, it was not the depression that Yu Qiuping imagined. It was the autumn harvest season, and farmers were busy harvesting in the golden fields, and harvested crops were piled up on the ridges beside the fields. There were also a large number of vendors and stalls in the city and town, and many no dramas and dances were performed in the theater.

The only drawback is that the people don’t look very wealthy, and most of the items sold by small vendors are necessities of daily life, rather than medium and high-end consumer goods. Most of those who go to watch Nokong show are warriors or luxury merchants.

"The next step is an extremely cumbersome process." Semine Shin-sama said with a wry smile. "Although the power of the court and the shogunate is no longer the same as before, this is a perfect move. It takes a lot of trouble to meet the senior Miyako under the General and His Majesty the Emperor. It is not impossible to wait for a month."

"If you are bored, you can go to Kyoto to take a look." Serezushi said with a smile.

"Don't worry about revealing your identity?" Yu Qiuping asked,

"No need." Semine Shishi shook his head, "I knew what we were coming, I knew it long ago. I don't know what we were back, and I won't know it later. Mihao Family must have mastered our movements for a long time."

On July 27, Yu Qiuhei and Matsushita were in trouble, Maeda Takiya and Masayuki Sanada went for a walk on the street. Honta Kaoruzuki was still practicing martial arts alone in the inn, and Amano Keito was left by Semine Shin-shi to deal with a series of interviews.

In the early morning, Kinki was still a little cool. The group did not wear much clothes, and Panasonic was weak and had already sucked his nose several times in a row.

"Let's find a place to warm up, have some breakfast, and wait until the sun comes out before going to stroll around." Yu Qiuping suggested, leading everyone to start looking for a place to rest on the street. However, there were obviously many restaurants and inns just now, but they couldn't find any of them. Everyone who was unwilling to walk back had to continue walking down. They walked for almost a few quarters of an hour in a flash, and there were residential areas on both sides.

"What layout? Can you be more professional?" Yu Qiuping sighed repeatedly, "Can you do business? You don't have so many residents in your restaurant?"

Before he finished speaking, a casino appeared around the corner.

"There is always something to eat in the casino!" Yu Qiuping walked around for a long time, with a hungry stomach, "Let's go in and eat something!"

As soon as I entered the casino, a smell of wine choked Yu Qiuping. The noise, clinking glasses, cheers, and filthy words mixed together made Yu Qiuping feel disgusted. The light in the house was a little dim, and only the gamblers were red and staring at the gambling game in front of me, and from time to time, roaring or lamenting.

"I guess they all gambled for one night," Masayuki Sanada said, "I don't even have dark circles, but they were very excited. It was obvious that they had been gambling for a while. Besides, no one would get up in the early morning to gamble. Judging from their clothes and dress, they were probably some rich merchants or samurai."

Among a large group of gamblers shouting, a middle-aged uncle caught Yu Qiuping's attention. He sat in a seat by the window, gambling quietly, and a dealer carrying a wallet stood beside him. However, what surprised Yu Qiuping the most was that although there was a pair of gambling tools opposite him, there was no one sitting there.

He is gambling with himself?

Yu Qiuping walked forward in surprise, wanting to see what the uncle was doing. When the uncle raised his head, he happened to see Yu Qiuping. He seemed to be in his thirties, with a very fair face, wearing a blue samurai uniform, and was well-maintained. He was invisibly emitting a heroic spirit. He was probably a samurai with a good identity.

"I heard the accent, it seems that I am from Ming Dynasty?" Before Yu Qiuping could speak, the uncle said first. Everyone on Yu Qiuping's side was shocked.

"But I haven't spoken yet?" Yu Qiuping was confused. "How did you hear the accent?"

"Gambling." The uncle smiled and messed up the cards at the gambling table. "It seems that he was gambled right." He pointed to the chair opposite, "Please sit down."

"This..." Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly, "You really bet right. I am indeed from Ming Dynasty, and we are..."

"No need to introduce it," the uncle waved his hand, "In the casino, everyone is a gambler. What is your identity? Your Emperor has come down and you have to pay for it if you lose money. Please sit down!"

"Haha, you were joking!" Everyone was amused.

After Yu Qiuping sat down, Panasonic Qinglan and others sat around a table beside him. The uncle waved his hand and the dealer immediately stepped back. After a while, he brought a few plates of fried rice.

"Thank you for the hospitality!" Yu Qiuping said gratefully: "How do you see that I didn't eat?"

"Gambling." The uncle smiled again, "I opened the casino, just let it go and eat."

"How can you be so embarrassed?" Yu Qiuping shook his head and wanted to take out the money from his arms.

"Haha, instead of giving money, it's better to accompany me to a few games." The uncle smiled.

"You bet so accurately, I dare not bet with you?" Yu Qiuping was very surprised in secret. He didn't understand how this casino owner knew his identity? Could it be that he was secretly monitoring him?

"It's not entirely up to gambling in the casino. Luck is also very important." The uncle himself took a plate of fried rice, "Eat it, eat it, have a full stomach, and gamble with me for a few dishes! Then you won back your meal!"

The uncle was obviously a master who was immersed in this way. Yu Qiuping came up and lost three times because he was not familiar with the rules. Three hundred people disappeared. The Maeda Taki family couldn't stand it, so he dragged Yu Qiuping down, and he lost three times in a row. Later, Masayuki Sanada and Matsushita Qingran joined forces to attack, but they were incomparable with the uncle, but they still lost. In just a quarter of an hour, Yu Qiuping had already lost all his money. The dealer next to him laughed so hard that he lost his money when collecting the money. Yu Qiuping and the other two had a dark face, looking at the uncle who was still calm.

Unwilling to give up, Yu Qiuping asked with a blushing face: "Boss, do you dare to come and try our Ming Dynasty gambling method!"
