Sena Hime returned to the Oden, entered the dressing room next to the bedroom, and stood there like a stone, without moving for a long time. ~ Even though she was dissatisfied with Matsuhira Motoyashi, Sena Hime believed that Matsuhira Motoyashi had feelings for them, but she felt unforgettable sadness in her heart.
When she was in Junfu Castle, the ruthless Imakawa family almost killed her because of a moment of anger. Although she was able to escape from Junfu Castle later, her father, Qin Nagao, was left in Junfu Castle because they escaped from the Junfu Castle that night.
When the mother and son were free from the Toei Imagawa family, they also learned from the Toei Imagawa family that her father, Quinaka Kinaga, had been forced to commit suicide by seizure not long ago, and even received a handwritten letter from Quinaka Kinaga. At that time, she no longer cared about the doubts that her father's letter would fall into the Toei Imagawa family. When she opened the letter to confirm that the handwriting was her father and saw the contents of the letter, she had already cried to tears.
"My death has nothing to do with you. You must live in harmony with Matsuhei Motoyashi, serve him well, and teach the children." When his father's letter reached Senahime's hands, he was no longer in this world. Today, in the midst of sadness, she once again read the letter.
"For Matsuhira Motoyaku, even his father..."
Although her father asked her to live in harmony with Matsuhei Motoyashi, the more she read, the sadder she felt, and her heart ached. She actually got married with the enemy's house! When she remembered this, Senahime felt like she was going crazy. But in the final analysis, the one who made her depressed was still the Imagawa Imakawa Imakawa who had a skin-loving relationship with her. After all, the Imagawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imakawa Imak.
In the brand new wood-scented omen, Semine Hime was still happy for her freedom before, while trying to make herself forget her father's death and immersed in happiness. Just as she was gradually accustomed to this kind of life, a sentence from the maid Ah Wan suddenly shattered her dream. So she immediately wanted to make a big fuss, but now Matsuhira Motoyashi is no longer the same as before. It is impossible to act according to Semine Hime's will like in the past. If she wanted to make a big fuss, what would he react?
"Come here, go to the city immediately and call me Ishikawa's family!" Semeihito was silent for a while, walked to the maids and shouted.
There are almost no men in the Tuoyama Gotan. Sena Hime thought it was due to Matsuhei Motoyasu's jealousy. Only when there was a major event would I call Ishikawa's uncle, Hayasuke's old Hiroroyasuke. Ishikawa's mother was the daughter of Kariya Castle Mizuno Tadashi, so Kariyasuke and Matsuhei Motoyasu were cousins. When Hirogoro was led by his maid to Tuoyama Gotan, the sun had not yet set. His cheeks were red and he was drunk.
"Madam tells me something is wrong?" Jiazen came to the bedroom. After sitting down in front of the door, Semine Hime couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with the smell of alcohol on his body.
"Is it still allowed to drink during the day in this city? Today is the Chinese Valentine's Day, a festival for women. Why do men... I don't understand."
Jiacheng waved his fan. "Today, the lord's name change was held, and the city held a banquet."
"What did you say? The lord changed his name?"
"Yes. Starting today, it will be changed to Tokugawa Ieyasu, a Tibetan from Matsuhira. Please remember it too, my wife." Iron Cheng said calmly with a knowing smile at the corner of his eyes.
"Tibetan Tokugawa Ieyasu?"
"Yes. The word "Yuan" by Matsuhei Motokaku is taken from the late Yoshimotokoku. Now that he has left the Jun Mansion, the lord does not want to use "Yuan" as his name anymore. The word "Kang" is his grandfather, Matsuhei Kiyoshi. The reason why he used "Home" is that I think the lord's intention is probably to not rely on anyone's power from now on, but to rely on the Matsuhei family and rely on their own power to survive."
This unexpected news made Se Naohime's eyes dark. She is the niece of Imakawa Yoshimoto. This sense of pride supports her and makes her persist until now. It is also her only capital for not being overwhelmed by Matsuhira Motoyasu. Now even the word "Yiyuan" in Matsuhira Motoyasu's name is gone. Wouldn't she become an insignificant person to her husband?
"Do you know about the engagement between Takechiyo and the Oda family's lady?"
"Know."
"Since that's the case, why don't I let this happen? Even the lowly maid from Sandaocheng knows it?"
Jiacheng nodded slowly: "The lord considers that his wife is sad and sad about many things, so he decided to find an opportunity to come and explain it in person... This is the lord's considerate wife."
"Thoughtful? I am the niece of Duke Yimoto. He actually wants to marry the Oda family, the enemy who killed his uncle..."
Jiazen slowly stopped her with gestures, and then said, "Don't say that. Many people in Okazaki Castle have been resentful of the fact that Daisuke of the Ministry of Justice detained the lord in Junfu as a hostage for thirteen years." Jiazen was admonishing a child who was not thinking about his behavior, with a slightly reproachful tone.
Senahime's lips trembled violently, but she had to control her emotions and wording.
Imakawa Yoshimoto's response to the Matsuhei family was so huge in the eyes of the people of Junfu and Okazaki Castle. Realizing this, Senahime felt that her existence was insignificant, so she asked: "Are you saying that the people of Okazaki are very satisfied with this marriage?"
"yes."
"Okay, don't say anything more. I'll ask my lord to see if he's doing this to be worthy of the Imakawa family."
Ishikawa's family pretended not to hear it and said, "The lord seems to be here."
The sun has not yet closed its last ray of light. Tokugawa Ieyasu rarely comes here so early, and he may have felt for his feelings for his daughter Agui.
"Lord is here!" The voice of Kamihara Koheita came from outside.
Immediately, the footsteps of the maids hurried out to welcome him came from the yard. Tokugawa Ieyasu seemed to have entered the lounge. The maid Aman hurriedly ran over to report to Semeiji. Semeiji put on the clothes brought by the maid Aman, looked in the mirror, and left the bedroom. Her face turned pale and her dissatisfaction was revealed.
"Lord..." She just spoke, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. She was full of anger and anger. Tokugawa Ieyasu didn't care about Semeihime's extremely excited mood. She looked at the courtyard and said, "The weather is good, and the Milky Way is also beautiful. Are you okay?"
"Lord!" Sena Hime no longer controlled herself, and tears flowed down her face. "I heard that you have changed your name to Tokugawa Ieyasu today?"
"I have to make up my mind. This is a good name."
"Then... Lord Imakawa would be very happy if he was in Kyusin."
"Maybe. People must be independent, this is the best reward to their ancestors."
Semine Hime fell softly on her husband and started crying like a child. "How could he be happy? Doing this means you have completely cut off your ties with the Junfu... You just want to prove that you are strong now..."
"Severe off relations? What's wrong with this? At this time, I'm afraid the Imakawa family in the Junfu family has been destroyed under the siege of the Toruki Imakawa family. The Toruki Imakawa family no longer needs to be prepared for the Suruki Imakawa family. Compared with the Imakawa family in the Junfu Imakawa family, what I worry more about now is probably the Toruki Imakawa family!" After hearing the words of his wife Sena Hime, Torukawa Imakawa Yui thought to himself.
Of course, he didn't care about his wife's willful behavior at this time. After all, he also learned that his wife's husband and wife were forced to death by the Imakawa family in Junfu Castle, so he also loved his wife a little, so he simply changed the topic. Then he said, "Today is the Chinese Valentine's Day, it's Agui's festival. Bring Agui. I want to see her."
But Sena Hime still snuggled up to Tokugawa Ieyasu and cried endlessly.
"Yes. I will bring the lady here right away." The maid Awan looked at him and stood up carefully.
Not long after, when the maid Ah Wan led the beautifully decorated Ah Kame to Tokugawa Ieyasu, Semeihito was still crying. She seemed to want to use her tears to get a few gentle comfort from her husband. Kamihara Kohei, who was standing behind Tokugawa Ieyasu, was too slapped with a sword in his hand like a puppet, and was at a loss. If no one spoke, Mrs. Tsukuyama's crying probably wouldn't stop, but Tokugawa Ieyasu did not comfort her.
"Agui, oh, I've become beautiful. Come, come to me."
"Yes." Agui looked at his mother and remained indifferent. His father seemed to be in a good mood. They didn't quarrel, but his mother was crying alone. Agui had long been used to the temper of cowardice and arrogance.
"Agui is growing up. Do you know who is worshiping tonight?"
"Worship the Weaver Girl."
"Smart child! Look, there are so many stars in the sky, one of which belongs to you."
"My stars... are in the sky?"
"Yes. That shouldn't be a sad star... As long as we cultivate it with our hearts, you will definitely grow into a good child and will definitely live in happiness."
At this moment, Sena Hime, who had been crying all the time, suddenly raised her face. "No...no...you must never let her marry into her enemy's family!"
"What did you say?"
"Take Chiyo's future wife! Didn't you decide to marry the lady of the Oda family without discussing with me?"
"Someone probably told you about that. I wanted to tell you myself."
"Take Chiyo is still young, and at this time it is still in the hands of Imakawa Junori, and the lady of the Oda family is still able to walk. You can barely make a marriage for them. What should you do if they can't get along well in the future?"
"No. Men and women will always get close."
"No, no. We were not young back then, and we thought carefully, but it was not satisfactory, let alone them! In order to realize our ambitions, our father casually made a strange marriage for his son..."
"Build a mountain!" Tokugawa Ieyasu said sternly, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"Nonsense? As Takechiyo's mother... No, your wife has to express her objection to this marriage."
"Don't talk nonsense!"
"I didn't say nonsense. I'm considering the happiness of Takechiyo's future."
Tokugawa Ieyasu gently put down Ah Gui, then looked at his wife and said, "Don't you know this is a chaotic world?"
"Don't change the subject."
"Do you think that this troubled time will allow people to have so-called happiness? In this world, poverty will be eliminated. In order to survive, you must kill people. Can a woman with no power to tie a chicken freely choose what she loves? My grandmother, because of her beauty, has experienced the tragic fate of being forced to remarry five times... It's not just her. Look at those women who have to do things in the Junfu Imperial Office for their lives. Although they are frightened, they have to sell their youth and ** behind their backs... This is the true face of the troubled times."
Senahime turned a deaf ear to Tokugawa Ieyasu's words. She grew up in the gentle breeze and drizzle of Junfu Castle. Even though she had experienced the life of a hostage before, her previous life had long formed her willful and stubborn personality. She did not understand this troubled time.
"You are talking more and more outrageously. I am not the women who are forced to sell their chastity. Takechiyo is not a weak man who will die in despair. Don't get this undestined marriage."
Tokugawa Ieyasu pursed his lips gently and kept silent. Kamihara Koheita didn't want to listen to Semine Hime again.
Koheita, Ah Wan, take Ah Gui down.” After a while, Tokugawa Ieyasu said lightly, then turned his head and looked out the window blankly.
As the sun sets, the gentle breeze gently shakes the cherry leaves. Sadness arises naturally, making people drowsy. Woman... Tokugawa Ieyasu thought to himself and couldn't help but sigh. He felt that there was an insurmountable gap between him and Sena Hime. But women are not all like this. Mrs. Yoshira, the widow of Tomoei Tomi, and the maid of Hanako Inn (this person is Tokugawa Ieyasu's stepmother and the Toda family's princess), is a maid. Compared to them, Sena Himesu is like thick phlegm blocking her throat, making Tokugawa Ieyasu bored and helpless.
Perhaps as Senahime said, their union was not voluntary between the two parties. It was a strategic marriage between the Imakawa family and the Matsue family. But in this world, people have no time to discuss whether this marriage is reasonable.
Looking back, did Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was hostage in Junfu, reject the freedom of Sena Hime? At that time, Tokugawa Ieyasu had to rely on this marriage to save the life of the poor Okazaki people, which was the only purpose at that time. If Sena Himesu could understand this, he would accept these endless tragedies with a sad mood.
"Lord, even if I strongly object, do you still have to do your own thing?"
Tokugawa Ieyasu's vision still did not leave the courtyard. "I want to give you a clear explanation. Do you understand the current power of the Oda family?"
"No. I only know that the Oda family is an enemy of the Imakawa family."
"You calm down first. Why did the Oda family become the enemy of the Imakawa family?"
"My uncle, my uncle, was killed by the Oda family."
"Why did he be killed by the Oda family? Have you ever thought about it? The Imakawa family took the initiative to attack Oda's territory, but was taken to the head of the family."
"So what?"
"You are quiet! As Suruga, Together, and the Three Kingdoms guardians, Yoshimoto Kyu took the initiative to provoke a war, why was he killed? Don't you think the Oda family's momentum is better than the Imakawa family?"
“…”
"Eighth Jun, who can't even Lord Imakawa, let me deal with it. Do you think I can win? Haven't you discovered that it was because of the power comparison that I made such a decision?"
When Sena Hitoshi heard Tokugawa Ieyasu say this, she suddenly smiled strangely.
"So, does the lord want Takechiyo to pay the price for your weakness? Haha, it turns out that the lord is willing to be a weak person."
Tokugawa Ieyasu's eyes suddenly became severe. He suppressed his anger and turned his head to stare at his wife. His sharp eyes shocked Sena Hime. She knew very well how much mockery would anger a man. The angry Tokugawa Ieyasu might smash her fan or a few to her... Sena Himesu couldn't help but tighten her whole body, but Tokugawa Ieyasu finally controlled his anger. "Madam."
"yes."
"Actually, we are also victims of strategic marriages, and you may not object to this."
"It is precisely because I haven't forgotten that I don't want Take Chiyo to bear the same misfortune." In fact, although Sena Hime was a little unreasonable, this sentence expresses her voice as a mother. She was originally under house arrest as a hostage at the Toei Imakawa family. Her son Take Chiyo's experience was already miserable enough. As a result, before her son Take Chiyo's hostage life ended, her father, as her son Take Chiyo, had already arranged a tragic political marriage to arrange a tragic political marriage. How could she bear it? So, this was just a struggle for her son to fight for a happy life as a mother.
"Okay. Don't let him bear this misfortune." Tokugawa Ieyasu naturally would not pay attention to his wife's thoughts. Compared to his wife, he was more concerned about the survival of the family governor. If necessary, just like he decided to abandon his wife and children and declare independence, he would still give up his wife and children again. Of course, such a decision naturally cannot be said, but he was too lazy to get involved with his wife in front of him anymore. So he said, "If you think Takechiyo's happiness depends only on marriage. Then I have nothing to say."
