Chapter 7 Chapter Seven

At around four o'clock on the seventh day of May in the 20th year of Qingchang, Hideyori learned that Osaka had suffered a crushing defeat. Before this, although people approached one after another from the northeast of the city, Hideyori didn't know whether those people were enemies or friends.Ishikawa Tadaka, Kyogoku Tadaka, and Kochi came from Hirakata, passed through Moriguchi, and stationed in Bizen Island.Hideyori even thought, maybe they want to defend Osaka.Rilong Ikeda, who came along the waterway, has been guarding Nakanoshima at Tenma for seven days, and Hideyori does not regard him as an enemy.He wondered, did the Great Imperial Palace really want to destroy the Toyotomi clan?If the Great Imperial Palace has already made up its mind, why did they send Ishikawa and Kyogoku, who have a deep connection with the Toyotomi clan, to attack the weakly defended Osaka Castle?

If the weakly defended Osaka Castle was attacked during the decisive battle between Okayama and Tennoji, Hideyori would lead his troops to attack without saying a word.However, the person in charge of the same city is the son of his aunt Chang Gaoyuan, who has been lobbying between Osaka and Kanto... Xiu Lai feels that Ieyasu has no intention of killing him. After noon, Katsunaga Mori sent someone to ask Hideyori to conscript himself, but Hideyori refused.Is this really the final battle of destiny?He always had such doubts and kept asking himself.Kimura Shigeunari is dead, and Goto Matabei, who was very active in every discussion, is also dead, but all this is like a dream to Hideyori.

Regarding Hideyori's refusal to personally conscript, it is described in "Yamamoto Toyohisa": "Sanada Zuoweimen Zuo Chibei Army, stationed on Chamo Mountain, from the front of Tennoji Temple to the east of Okayama, in a half-moon formation. Show At this time, if Lord Lai ordered to go out at dawn to boost morale, the army would be able to fight bravely. Although the victory or defeat depends on the timing, even if the army is defeated, Lord Xiu Lai died in front of the gate of Tianwang Temple, then even if If you win the weak and remnant soldiers, you won't run away. In this way, this battle will become an unprecedented battle. However, Mr. Hideyoshi did not come out for a long time, so he only handed over the horse seal to the person on duty and sent it to Hachimachi. I can't break the Erdao City by myself, as time goes by, defeat is not far away..."

However, this sigh is just an inference, far from Hideyori's true thoughts.At this time, for Xiu Lai, life is no longer so important.As far as the courage to go to war is concerned, he still has it, but the Kwantung Army can't make him feel hostile no matter what, and he gradually loses his fighting spirit. Chamashan planted the flag of the Echizen Army, and after Sanada Yukimura died in battle, the Osaka Army in Okayama scrambled to retreat.At the time of application, the situation of the battle has been determined. Hideyori was still inside the Sakura Gomon Gate of the city, and someone came to report: "Toshitaka Ikeda has crossed the river and is approaching the city gate." Just after finishing speaking, Ono Jichang, who was seriously injured, was carried into the city.

Even so, Hideyori still has no sense of defeat, and it was the same in last year's winter campaign.He has never experienced a battle, and he knows neither victory nor defeat.But he suddenly said: "I will also join the battle and fight to the death!" He said this because he saw Daisuke Sanada beside him burst into tears when he learned of his father's death.However, Hideyori was unable to leave the city in the end.Because when he was about to mount his horse, Hayami Kaishu who had withdrawn from Tennoji stopped him. "You must not!" Shaking his blood-stained messy hair, he drove the horse aside, and said anxiously, "The battlefield is already in chaos, and corpses are everywhere. My lord, you must not go to the chaos army. Your lord might as well Retire to this city, and when it is absolutely necessary, kill yourself."

At this time, the Kwantung armies who were pursuing the victory had approached Sandao City, and some people even broke into it.Only then did Xiu Lai's heart start to waver.The fire under the kitchen in this city made him furious again.Along with the fire, there is also a rumor that the chef supervisor Osumi and Youemon saw that Kanto was pressing at every step, and deliberately set fire to cooperate with the enemy. Is this person really through the enemy?Before Hideyori got a definite answer, another more bad news came: the Echizen army who broke into Sandao Castle set fire to the mansion of Ono Zhichang, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger.

"Erdao Castle is at stake, please return to the city quickly!" Hayami Kaishou, who had just rushed out, rushed back to Song Dynasty, and ordered people to put Hideyori's flag and horse seal into the Senjoden, which Taiko was once proud of. .At this time, the two fires caused panic, and many people fled in all directions. The battle is set!Xiu Lai just wants to accept his fate.However, he still didn't know what the consequences of defeat would be.He was full of suspicion and came to Qianfold Hall.For a moment, he froze.He had seen wounded people, but not dead bodies.The people in the hall, Princess Ma, Tsugawa Sakon, Watanabe Neizosuke, Nakabori Books, Nonomura Iyo... One after another, they kept stabbing their own lower abdomen with knives.

These people seem to have forgotten about Hideyori. They sat on the raised tatami mats, eager to end their lives... Is this the result of defeat?Everyone's eyes are dull and their faces are stiff.When the knife stabbed into the lower abdomen, their faces were twisted in pain, as if they were possessed by ghosts. Nakajima Shikibu rushed in and said something to the calm-faced Watanabe Naisuke.At this moment, a voice shouted: "Neizosuke, good!" Immediately, a figure flew to the side of Neizosuke, before Hideyori recovered, the figure took out a dagger and stabbed his chest and abdomen.

Hiderai's eyes were wide open, as if they were about to burst. At this moment, he knew that the figure was Naezosuke's mother, Masakani, and her life had gradually passed away. Where did this old nun get such courage from?Before Xiu Lai even had time to ask a question, he heard another voice: "This world is too painful! Well, now let us mother and child together, the six senses are purified, and go to the Buddha." This is not a human voice, but Ghostly voice.Hideyori felt the sound penetrate his chest, making his hair stand on end. "My lord!" At this moment, a person threw himself in front of Xiu Lai and said, "The fire has spread! This place is very dangerous."

"Okuhara Shinjuro..." "Hurry up and take refuge in Sanzari Garden! Repair-sama and Kai-sama are waiting for you there." Thick smoke had entered the room, and the dead and dying were seen being engulfed in it.The flag erected by Hideyori's vassal, Gun Ryue, was slightly golden in the smoke.Xiu Lai was not very sad in her heart.Okuhara Shinjuro pushed his back again, and he staggered forward.The one holding his hand tightly was Daisuke Yukatsuna.Tears welled up in Hideorai's eyes, and Daisuke's face that had just cried aroused the sadness in his heart. "Madam and Young Madam both went to the mountain garden to take refuge. Please calm down, sir."

"Ok." "Everyone died for you. You say goodbye to them and go at once." "Hmm..." Xiu Lai responded like this, but no one taught him what to say on this occasion.He murmured: "Soldiers...I'm sorry." "Yes, that's it, let's go." Where he went and how he got there afterwards, Hideyori is like a dream.When he came back to his senses, another scene had changed before his eyes.There is a mother, a wife, Ono Jichang, and Hayami Kaimori... The figure of the mother is the most eye-catching. When she saw Hideyori, she shouted: "My son! Our last moment has come." Hideyori was still dragged by Daisuke, and sat in front of Fuji in a daze.At this time, Ono Jichang trembling Cangzi's lips said: "Never! If your lord and wife are going to end up on their own, why are we suffering so much? Never!" Hideyoshi didn't know what he was talking about. "Shut up!" Mrs. Dian's voice was very sharp, "At this point, what is there to miss!" "Nostalgia? Madam, please calmly look at the enemy's lineup. Katagiri Katamoto at the Okayama Pass, and the Kyogoku Brothers at the north... These are the proofs that the martial arts of the adults have not yet ended. As long as there is a way, we have to wait until In the end... this is our duty." "It's really interesting! Did you hear that? The repairs haven't failed yet. The city is already on fire, and both the Third City and the Second City have fallen. Where else can we lose face again?" "lady!" "What do you want to say, I'm listening. Tell me, what else can you do, I'm listening!" "The Imperial Palace will never embarrass Madam and adults..." "He won't kill us, will he? Hmph, you mean that although he wants to destroy the Toyotomi family, he has no hostility towards our mother and son?" "Please calm down, my lord. The method I am talking about refers to the young lady..." "Hmph! Aqian is my daughter-in-law, how can I ignore it? I want to take her to hell with me." "No! First of all, we must send the young lady to the tent of the general of Gang... and ask the young lady to beg for the life of the lord and the wife." Hiderai glanced at Chihime in surprise.Qianji was sitting between Mrs. Dian and the Secretary of the Ministry of Justice at this time, she looked extremely thin, her face was expressionless, and her eyes were dull.Shinjuro Okuhara, who was sitting cross-legged behind him, had a very different expression from this tense atmosphere, making one feel a little leisurely. Xiu Lai suddenly understood his sorrow: he had already lost.Moreover, now Toyotomi, his mother, his wife, and himself are all at the critical moment of life and death, and have to make a final plan... Tears blurred his eyes, and he began to tremble. "You are still stubborn!" Mrs. Dian's voice pierced Xiu Lai's chest like a knife, "If you insist like this... okay! Then let the adults make the decision. Xiu Lai, you heard it, Xiu Lai said that I will let you Aqian went to beg for our lives. Are you disregarding face and begging for mercy from the Imperial Palace and Xiuzhong, or will you live and die with this Daban City built by the public?" Hideyoshi slowly closed his eyes.Yes, a decision has to be made. This is no longer someone else's business. It is me, Toyotomi Hideyori... He was thinking about this, when the governor retorted fiercely: "My lord! My lord, you understand that Gun Lianglie and Was Watanabe Neizosuke and the others thinking? The reason why they did not die in the battle, but chose to return to the city was because they believed that the Lord was still alive. Just because the Lord was still alive, the flag and horse seal could not fall into the enemy's army They might be trampled under the hooves of the enemy's horses. They returned to the city with this kind of mind and killed themselves in the Qianfold Hall to express their apology for the defeat." "They are for me?" "Yes, do you still want to ignore their loyalty?" Xiu Lai didn't have time to ponder this question. "Report!" A blood-stained young man threw himself in front of Hideyori and shouted, "The enemy army has already broken into Erdao Castle, and Horita Masataka, Mano Yoriho, and Narita Heizō were unable to retreat into the city due to the fierce fire. , committed seppuku in front of the stone wall between Sandao City and Erdao City." "So, so...you can't climb the castle tower anymore?" Hayami Kaimori asked impatiently. "Yes. Oh, I hope my lord's martial arts will last forever..." "What long-term martial luck!" Mrs. Dian stood up suddenly, and she seemed to want to brave the thick smoke and go to the Tianshou Pavilion to kill herself. "Urgent report!" At this time, another young man covered in dust threw himself at Mrs. Dian's feet, "Immortal Stone Sect also saw that the defeat was doomed, so it ran away." "Escape?" "No!" Simultaneously with Hideyori's rhetorical question, Zhichang paused every word, "Xianshi knows that the lord will survive, and save his life first so that he can continue to serve in the future." "Urgent report!" Everyone had no time to think.In the raging fire, one after another desperate emergency reports followed. "Ojibo-sama Ono and Dou-sama have absconded!" "It's not about absconding!" the Zhichang shouted, "If everyone dies in battle, are you allowed to serve the Youfu? Back down!" "Urgent report!" At this time, Hayami Kaimori had already grabbed Hideyori's hand and was about to leave, "If the fire burns here, we will not be able to continue the discussion. Please take shelter in the barn of Ashidaen." Then, Zhizhang's mother, the Dazang Bureau, also took Mrs. Dian's hand and walked out. Mrs. Dian hurriedly grabbed Qianji's sleeve. Shinjuro Okuhara watched all this coldly, and stood up. "Victory or defeat is standard issue." Hayami Kaimori repeated while urging Hideyori.He probably didn't say it to Xiu Lai, but to himself, "It's easy to die, but hard to live! At this time, you should remember the words of repair." Okuhara Shinjuro approached Jichang, helped him up, and leaned on him.After being stabbed, his wounds had not healed, but the Chief Zhi was brave and staunch in the battle. His hands, face, and feet were covered with blood, and he was already dying.After a long time, he said, "Xinjuro, thank you!" "You're welcome...is it the barn in Ashtian Court?" "Yes, please! No one will find that place, and the fire will not burn there. Alas, even so, the young lady cannot be taken there." Shinjuro Okuhara didn't answer, and said, "This city is already in flames." "Shinjuro, please!" "..." "Please send the mother and son of the Youfu... No, please send the young lady out of the city, and let her go to the Imperial Palace to beg the Great Imperial Palace to spare the lives of the mother and son of the Youfu..." The Chief Zhi spoke quickly, as if he was afraid that others would listen, but he I can't move my legs. Shinjuro Okuhara easily carried him on his shoulders and followed behind the crowd, sighing secretly in his heart: This person has been frivolous all his life, and he has also ushered in the dying moment together with this city... Today's sunset should be very beautiful.The sky was filled with smog, and it was not yet dark, but the castle tower could no longer be seen.The downwind vent may have been burnt to scorched earth.Gunshots and shouts, mixed with the crackling of burning flames, can be heard endlessly. Not long after, a nameless anger surged into Okuhara Shinjuro's heart. He had an urge to throw the Zhizhang on his back - it was this person's indecision that finally brought about this huge tragedy.But Shinjuro doesn't resent Zhichang that much, because Zhichang has forgotten his own life and death, and only worries about Hideyori and Mrs. Yodo. There is a flat land in front of you, leading to the Lutian Garden in front.This is the upper air outlet, blocked by a stone wall, and you can see a little bit of blue sky between the billowing smoke.Someone coughed violently, probably because the place suddenly became fresh, and wanted to spit out the soot that was inhaled. "Be quiet!" It was Hayami Kai's voice, "We're going to hide here. No one is allowed to make a sound after entering, and a boat will come to pick us up right away." Shinjuro is very clear about what Hayami Kaishou means. He must want Hideyori to escape to Satsuma by boat from here... Hayami, Akashi and others are devout foreign believers, which is very different from Zhichang's idea. He wants to wait for Philip The emperor's reinforcements. The shelter of Lutian Garden is a rice barn covered with plaster on all sides, five rooms wide and less than three rooms deep.Night gradually fell, and the surroundings became dark.Hayami Kaimori took Hideyori's hand and walked in, regardless of whether he wanted to or not, he took off his helmet and put it on the rice.Hideyori no longer has the horse seal, nor the flag, only this helmet, which has become the only decoration for the defeated. Suddenly, Mrs. Dian burst into tears. Toyomasa Okuhara Shinjuro carried the chief on his shoulders and glanced at the barn. He was very surprised by the situation in the barn.In such a small warehouse, there are so many men and women that they cannot move their bodies.I didn't expect that the small barn could accommodate so many people, sixty people, maybe more.If a cannon hits here... Okuhara Shinjuro suddenly trembled, his heart was like ice. "Ah!" Shinjuro suddenly exclaimed in surprise.Qianji is gone!He was convinced that Mrs. Dian would never let Qianji go, her anger had turned her into a crazy Yasha, and she would no longer sit down calmly and think about what had blocked the communication between her and Mr. Jiakang.Therefore, when she dies on her own, she will definitely drag Qianji along to be buried with her. Shinjuro handed the governor over to his son Zhide, and said: "It is important to heal the wound quickly." Then he pushed through the crowd and came to Mrs. Yodo.Only then did he realize that there was another person missing, and that was the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment. She was always holding on to her master's clothes tightly, and followed behind them, as if she was competing with Mrs. Dian for Qianji. They escaped! This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for Shinjuro.The lives of Hideyori, Chihime and Mrs. Yodo must be saved!This was an oath he made in his heart, and he also wanted to prove to Yagyu Mataemon through this matter that he was right. "Ma'am, the young lady has escaped?" The matter is already clear, but Xin Juro still needs to confirm. Mrs. Yodo fell on the ground and sobbed, "Shinjuro, no, don't chase after him!" "This...why is this?" "I let them go! I have something to ask Ah Qian." Shinjuro doubted his ears, "Madam... Madam, what did you say?" "I asked Aqian. Only Aqian can save You Fu's life now. Please forgive me..." Her crying was close to mourning, and Shinjuro was silent.But Xiu Lai leaned out, his face was flushed, and he said: "Mother asked Ah Qian to beg for the child's life?" Mrs. Dian was speechless. "You're still worrying about things until now!" Xiu Lai scolded her mother tremblingly, "Don't you feel ashamed? Do you think Ah Qian can walk out of the city gate safely?" "Just forgive mother, I can't watch you die..." Halfway through the words, Mrs. Dian broke down in tears. Okuhara Shinjuro stared intently at Mrs. Yodo who was lying on the ground.He was a little moved, and also saw a fate that could no longer be changed.This is a real mother. A mother loves her child. This kind of love cannot be resisted or stopped by any force in the world. "Shinjuro!" Hideorai yelled, "What are you doing? Hurry up and bring the young lady back! What should I do if Ah Qian falls into the hands of the rebellious ronin?" Okuhara Shinjuro was not surprised when he heard that, Hideyori obviously still cares about Chihime. "My lord, don't worry." He wanted to say this, but he swallowed the words again.His inner peace gradually recovered.Qian Ji will be fine, he has this confidence.There were two people who had made a secret agreement with him. If something happened, they would help him. One of them was Gonemon Yonemura, the vassal of Osamu Ono, and the other was Ujihisa Horiuchi.What's more, there is the Minister of the Ministry of Justice who grew up with Qianji by her side, so she should not have any accidents.Gonemon and Ujiku will bring them to Ieyasu, and the Ministry of Justice will reveal Chihime's identity.At that time, no matter how fierce and cruel people are, they will not hurt her.But how can we save Hideyori and Mrs. Yodo who have left Chihime? Shinjuro couldn't help thinking of his cousin Yagyu Mataemon.Andemon had told him that Chihime could go to beg for life first, and then rescue the mother and child.In this way, both sides can save face, and Qianji can also keep women's morals, and this matter can even be passed down as a beautiful story through the ages.But how can things be so easy?Shinjuro laughed at the idea of ​​the pedantic Yagyu in his heart.He originally thought that when a general of the Eastern Army appeared in front of these three people, he would ask Qianji to speak up: "Bring the three of us to the Great Imperial Palace, I have something to say to his old man." Then, he only needs to be responsible for guarding With the safety of these three people, the matter will be resolved.Mrs. Kedian's maternal love burst out at this time. Qian Ji is not here, will the general of the Eastern Army listen to his request?Tokugawa Fuyo's resentment towards Hideyori and Mrs. Yodo is beyond imagination, not to mention helping, they are afraid that they will kill them in a fit of anger. "Shinjuro!" Hideyori yelled again, "I told you to find A-Chien, did you hear me?" "Obey!" Shinjuro had no choice but to go out. It was already dark, and the flames reflected the sky, making people creepy.No gunshots could be heard outside, nor the clash of swords.It seems that only some people were left in Kanto to be responsible for the defense of Erdaocheng and Sandaocheng, and they all withdrew. At this time, no matter whether it was Ieyasu's camp in Chamoshan or Hidetada's camp in Okayama, there was probably a celebration banquet, singing and dancing.It is clear that the outcome has been decided!Shinjuro looked back at the barn and sighed. In the courtyard with the closed gate, there was a faint light, and the surrounding was silent.The flames shone in the yard, but there was no one in sight, not even a cat.Everyone died and fled.There is only the peripheral light of the flames, as if no one is there, illuminating the ruined walls... Shinjuro walked away, and his work had just begun.Ieyasu and Yagyu Mataemon probably still believe that he is one of their own who sneaked into Osaka Castle, but he is not the kind of person who listens to others, why should he live under the orders of others?Shinjuro clenched his fists as he walked: I want to live for my will!However, his plan was disrupted by Mrs. Dian. No one will be here tonight.Those who knew the hiding place hid in that barn.But what will happen tomorrow? After dawn, Ieyasu and Hidetada's bannermen will desperately search for Hideyori's mother and son.Even if Chihime saw her father and grandfather tonight, even if they agreed to Chihime's request... Thinking of this, Shinjuro sneered.He knew that people tried their best to make the two families negotiate peace, but Toyotomi ignored them. If he was Tokugawa Banner, he would never spare them at this time. "If you don't kill these two people, it's really hard to solve the hatred in your heart!" If they are killed, I will be negligent, so why not take a boat from Minato secretly and flee to Satsuma like Akashi and Hayami Shousou... Waka Yagyu again If Youemon knew about this, he would definitely be furious. At this time, Shinjuro saw his own figure cast on the ground, so he hurriedly walked to the willow tree, sat on a stone tied to the boat, and sighed softly.Not only the sky was reddened by the fire, but also the high tide of the river seemed to be burning.The bonfires of the Kwantung Army were burning on the opposite bank.Burn everything, and the world will be clean.He wiped the sweat off his neck, and suddenly found a black shadow emerging from the base of the earth wall at the water gate. "It's Okugan-sama?" It was a young man with a very low voice. Toyomasa Okuhara Shinjuro did not walk towards that person, but quickly glanced around, "Who? Come out!" "Yes. I'm under Zong Saburo. The young lady has left the city safely and is rushing to Chamoshan camp." This Zong Saburo is the head of the family he brought from Okuhara.Sosaburo seemed to think that it was Shinjuro's intention to let Chihime go. "Really? I left the city safely." "Yes. I was in danger a few times on the way, but it went smoothly." "Oh." "After all, because the fire was burning too fast, when the Secretary of the Criminal Ministry pushed her into the hollow from the stone wall of the castle tower, everyone's hands were sweating." "A trench?" "Yes, this is the idea of ​​Lord Horiuchi and Yonemura. The young lady said that she can't go out of the city alone, and she will die with You Fu. She also said that she is not the granddaughter of the Great Imperial Palace, nor the daughter of the general, but in Osaka Castle The wife of You Fu who grew up in middle school... She cried and refused to leave the city..." "I understand." Shinjuro interrupted him, "What about after advancing into the trench?" "The young lady lost consciousness all of a sudden, and then the three of us lifted her up. Of course, we were all careful. We walked to the other side of the trench, but there was a sea of ​​flames ahead, and we couldn't find the exit. We didn't know What to do, encountered an enemy army..." The young man clasped his hands together, and there seemed to be blazing flames in front of his eyes, "Seeing that he was in a desperate situation, Lord Horiuchi had no choice but to shout loudly: This is Miss Qianji! This is the wife of the right minister! Therefore, the identity of the young lady is disclosed." Speaking of this, The young man took a breath. Okuhara Shinjuro's gaze was no longer on the young man, he was staring at Hideyori's hiding place intently, "After knowing that it was the young lady, the other party was very surprised... Yes, it seems to be an adult named Sakazaki, it is Sakazaki Dewa Mamoru Your Excellency... In this way, the number of escorts increased again, we rushed through the fire, and arrived at the bank of the Maojian River, feeling a burst of coolness... Then we found a sedan chair and sent her to Chamo Mountain." "..." "Soon, we will arrive at the camp. We came here by boat again. But, my lord..." Shinjuro was still speechless. "As the saying goes, people's hearts are unpredictable. When I come back, less than half of the people who came with me from Okuhara are left. They didn't die in battle, you just think they got separated to avoid the fire. Follow up with me from my hometown None of the people who came here betrayed your lord... Yes, no one betrayed, as it should be." "You worked hard!" Shinjuro stood up, "Take good care of the boat so that no one can see it, and hide it quietly in the reeds." "yes." "The situation is critical now, don't be discovered." The young man disappeared into the reeds.The surroundings returned to silence again, and the flames were shining brightly, making people feel as if they were not in this world.In the light of the fire, Shinjuro Okuhara took another step, and his steps became very firm at this time. Qianji's departure was the key to saving Youfu's life. Yonemura Gonemon is the elder minister of Onoji, and he also met Ieyasu. On the way, he met Sakazaki Dewamori who had a close friendship with Yagyu Mataemon. Now there is no need to worry about Chihime.The world thinks that Sakazaki Dewamori is somewhat related to the Ukita Hide family, but Yaemon knows that he is from Korea.During the Battle of Bunroku, Deha had saved the lives of Ukita Hideo's family.Therefore, the Ukita Hide family claimed that Dewa was his blood relative, and gave him the surname Ukita, changed his name to Kita Ukyo Ryo Naokatsu, and brought him back to Japan.When Sekihara joined the battle, Zhisheng voted for Ieyasu.Born in a foreign country, he saw clearly that Ieyasu would rule the world, so he decided to follow him wholeheartedly and do his best for the creation of a peaceful and prosperous age. "Although he is a foreigner, he is a samurai regardless of his integrity and courage." Even Maemon praised him in this way.Lord Jiakang also appreciated it quite a lot, and granted him thirty thousand stones in Hamada, Shizhou. Ukita Naokatsu changed his surname to Sakazaki after Ukiya's defeat, and his name was also changed to Chengzheng.Therefore, it is now called Sakazaki Dewa Shou Chengzheng.Since Dewa Sakazaki is there to guard her, there is no need to worry about Chihime.However, Chihime's safe escape now has a fierce conflict with Okuhara Shinjuro's will. What would happen if only Qianji was saved, but Hideyori and Mrs. Dian committed suicide?The world will definitely comment that Jia Kanggong is a ruthless person who only cares about saving his granddaughter and watching the orphans of Taige go to ruin.In this way, Shinjuro will also become a country warrior who fails to understand Yagyu Maetemon's heart. In fact, at this time, how can we care about the world's discussion? Why did Shinjuro Okuhara leave his hometown and walk into Osaka Castle?If someone mistakenly thinks that he wants to take advantage of the chaos in the world, and in order to get ahead, he brings a group of his subordinates to sell himself to Daban City. As a high-quality student of Liu Sheng, what face will he have?In this way, he felt sorry for his subordinates who had always trusted him and followed him, and he also felt ashamed to see his cousin Mataemon again. "The problem is..." Shinjuro walked back and forth under the light of the flames, and said to himself again, "We must save Youfu and Mrs. Yodo... That's it!" But it was just a belief, he didn't No solution was found. How can we rescue them?Shinjuro sat under the willow tree again, staring intently at the warehouse where Hideyori's mother and son were hiding.
