The plum rain season of the three years of Yonglu is about to pass, and the scorching heat is about to enter.︾w.

Just as Oda Nobunaga went to Kyoto secretly, in the official residence of Imakawa Yoshimoto, the left-behind Imakawa clan was in pain and supported the support table with one elbow, fiddling with a fan in his hand. In front of him, the ladies of the left-behind generals sat side by side.

All of them were all about the news of a crushing defeat. Yamada Shin-eimon died in battle, Agui, who had fallen in love with Takechiyo at the same time as Senahime, and her husband Tomoei Imakawa was also killed in battle. Imakawa Yoshimoto's uncle, Masato Kawahara, was killed, and his nephew Tada of the Kano family was not spared. Even the powerful generals Miura Zuo Masuke who had been longing for many women in the Shin Mansion could not escape this disaster. There were also news of the death of generals in battle.

Whenever the battle report came, Semine Hime always held her breath involuntarily, for fear of hearing the bad news about her husband Matsuhira Motoyashi.

The only thing that made the Imakawa family feel a little relieved was the news I just received that Okabe Goro Toshimoto Nobuki defended Narutoshi Castle after his father's death, insisted on fighting hard with Oda Nobunaga until the end (in fact, there was no fierce battle after Imakawa Yoshimoto's death), and he also took back his father's head when he retreated.

As of that day, there were 556 generals and about 2500 soldiers who died in battle. But the war reports were still coming. Whenever a new name was added to the list of those who died in battle, the woman who became a widow was drowned in sweat and tears.

Too many generals lost their lives. Senahime felt that it was normal for people to let the women who became widows go home and worship the dead... But Imakawa really doesn't allow it.

"I want you to come here to let you know the news about your husband." Imakawa Masao used this as an excuse to gather the women. What he thought was that if they were not left as hostages, there might be a rebellion.

At noon, Imakawa Masa finally spoke, "I'll come when I go." He muttered to himself in a daze and stood up. At this time, he seemed to finally realize that Sena Hime was also present.

"Ahe... is so sad." He sighed.

"sorrow?"

"Matsuhira Motoyashi died in battle. But I will give him honor, don't worry." Sena Hime suspected her ears. "My lord is also..."

"Yes, I'm dead." Imakawa nodded hoarsely and walked straight down the corridor.

Sena Himeki rushed to the table with the list of the dead. "Is there any record of the death of the Tibetan Matsuhira Motoyashi Satsuhira?"

The writer looked through the booklet seriously and replied, "Not yet." Sena Hime couldn't help but smile bitterly. Imakawa Shi was already confused when she heard too many names of the generals who died in battle. She returned to her seat with confidence.

"Ah He." The wife of Yoshira, who had already known that her husband died in battle, was approaching with red eyes. A cold wind blew in Sena Hime's heart. There was an indescribable gap between the woman whose husband's dead and the woman who had a glimmer of hope for her husband's survival.

"I really envy you. Matsuhira Motoyashi..." Mrs. Kira sat down quietly beside Sena Hime, "He is very strong in martial arts and will definitely return safely."

"No!" Sena Hime couldn't help but feel a little disgusted with Agui's words, "At such an emergency, my adults must have fought hard somewhere. Seeing these orphans, alas, in comparison, Agui has no children, it's really enviable."

Agui looked at Semine Hime and lowered her head. For her now full of loneliness and grief, this kind of words were too vicious.

However, Agui was not in a trace, deliberately taking Sena's words and said in a low voice: "I want to apologize to Ahe." She seemed to be talking to herself, her voice as thin as a gossip. "If Sombao returns safely, you will pretend that you didn't hear it and forget what I said."

"You said... apologize? What's the matter?"

"I hate Yuankang."

"Hate my elders? Why?"

"Yuankang is the first man I have ever come into contact with in this world." Agui still lowered his head and stared at the tatami. She seemed to have no sense of shame at all, murmured blankly.

Sezakahime was speechless. When Matsuhira Motoyashi was eleven or twelve years old, he revealed that he liked Ah Gui. Sezakahime knew this clearly. But why did Ah Gui say it at this time? And it was in front of Sezakahime...

"I also like Takechiyo at that time." Agui continued with a clear voice, "but then he finally barely suppressed his love because I knew he was going to be your husband... But one night, he took me to the forest of the major general..."

Semine Hime shook her hand. She was waiting for news of her husband's life and death. At this critical moment, Agui made her feel uncomfortable inexplicably. What's more, Agui in front of her was younger than Semine Hime who had given birth to her, and her skin was more delicate.

"Stop talking! I'm just asking why you hate my adults."

"Please forgive me. Since I have become more envious of him and I am often confused."

"You said...you hate my elders?"

"Yes. He made me feel guilty about my husband...I hate it." Mrs. Kira's eyes left the floor and closed her delicate little mouth tightly.

Semeihito looked at Agui in disgust. She felt angry and anxious, and really wanted to grab Agui's hair and teach her a lesson. She felt that the other party said he hated him, but he was actually expressing his love nakedly.

"Agui, Sena Yoshimotoya apologizes to you. Please forgive me!"

I don’t know if Mrs. Kira heard it, but she was still murmuring: “I am a woman with deep sins… I have another man in my heart to serve my husband… No, it’s because I realize that I have deep sins that I want to repent to you. Ah He, please help me realize an idea.”

"idea?"

"Because it was you, I said my heart - I was afraid that Yuan Kang would return safely."

"Why?"

"I have lost my husband. What would I do if it were you? Ahe, I will die. This can at least be ashamed of being unfaithful to my husband during my lifetime."

Sena Hime suddenly felt dizzy. Ah Gui was probably the first woman of Matsuhei Motoyasu. She became a widow at a young age and was still obsessed with Matsuhei Motoyasu. She was afraid that she would be unforgettable for Matsuhei Motoyasu, which aggravated her sins, so she said she wanted to die. Sena Hime really wanted to use the sentence "Go to die", but in the end she still controlled her emotions and just stared at her.

"If I just committed suicide, I'm sorry for my husband who died in battle. So, Ahe, please go and see the young master and ask him when he plans to take revenge."

The topic changed too quickly, and Sena Hime was surprised. "What do you want?"

"I will lead the maids in my family to go to war like men until they die in battle. Please tell the young master."

Senagi's anger gradually dissipated. In this way, it could dilute Agui's infidelity. Undoubtedly, Agui's so-called confession was just because he had understood Senagi's temperament. He wanted her to test whether Imakawa Shima had the determination and plan to take revenge. Those who could meet Imakawa Shima and ask about this matter were probably not able to find anyone except Senagi.

"Okay, don't worry. I'll go see the young master now." Semeihito hurried back home, probably Imakawa's son had a rest, so he immediately ran to his residence.

Imakawa was really naked, making people wipe his sweat. He was lit incense and candles on the table. He looked blankly at the cigarettes like a child who did something wrong, as if he didn't realize that Sezuki had come in. Dan stared at the floating candle smoke and wiped the tears at the corners of his eyes with his hands. His whole body was soft and as if he was exhausted.

Senahime finally felt the sadness brought by the death of Imakawa Yoshimoto. She sat down quietly beside Imakawa. "Please mourn me!" She comforted softly, and tears couldn't help but fall in her eyes.

Imakawa Shin was motionless. The sound of summer cicadas came outside the window, adding inexplicable sadness to the sky.

"Your face is very bad. Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere..."

"What should I do?" Mama Imakawa finally turned her sight to Sena Hime. "I hate my father! Why are you not satisfied with being the Three Kingdoms guarding Suruga, Toge and Mikawa? I was already opposed to this entry into Beijing. If people do their duty, they can prevent problems before they happen." Mama Imakawa's words surprised Sena Hime. She didn't expect that Mama Imakawa would oppose Yoshimoto Imakawa's entry into Beijing. On the contrary, she heard that Mama Imakawa would go to Beijing with her father to go to Cuju in the capital.

"Odahara and Kofu seem to be allies, but they are actually coveting our territory. At this time, my father actually led all the important officials to die together. I hate my father, and I became a victim of his ambitions..."

What Imakawa Masashi is saying is true. Not only him, but the entire Imakawa family may have become victims because of Imakawa Yoshimoto's ambitions. But this fact is always regretful to say from Imakawa Masashi. What should we do with the people who are left behind?

"But I just complain about Lord Yoshimoto Imakawa, I'm afraid the problem will not be solved. When will the young master go to take revenge?" Imakawa Masa was very dissatisfied with Se Naihime's tone. He stared at Se Naihime and rubbed his hands anxiously. "Even you care about this issue?"

"It's not just me, but all widows have this question."

"oh."

"Justowen's wife just now begged the young master to take revenge. She is willing to go to the battlefield like a man..."

"Hmph!" Imakawa stopped Sena impatiently, "First of all, I am a victim of my father's ambition... and then I will become a victim of my retainer. I handed my life to the Shura Hell. I stayed here alone because I was afraid that once I came to everyone, I would not even have the freedom to cry. Don't you think I am pitiful?"

"Young Master!" Semeiji's voice became sharp. In the eyes of Mama Imakawa, it may be true, but it is really hateful that he actually said such backboneless words in the chaotic situation. "I want to tell you that Lord Imakawa Yoshimoto is no longer here, and you are the general who avenges everyone." Mama Imakawa looked back at Semeiji resentfully, and for a while was speechless.

"You won't give up just that, are you?"

"Ahe, don't meddle in other people's business!"

"So, what are your plans?"

"You are still resenting me. Do you still remember that thing?" Imakawa's eyes were like snakes, and her lips were filled with smirks. Semeiji suddenly felt extremely angry. He was obviously talking about the night before her wedding with Matsuhei Motoyaku, she was rudely ravaged by Imakawa's Matsuhei. For women, there is no more unbearable than being mentioned as being insulted in the past. Semeiji's pale face was a little distorted. She tried her best to control it and smiled deliberately: "You still remember that thing, I have forgotten it."

Imakawa Shima regained her weak expression and nodded weakly: "If you stand in my position, you will understand why I cry. I am just a sad doll."

"You live alone in such a large city, you are completely free of your wishes, and you actually..."

"No. When my father was alive, I was my father's puppet, and from now on, I may not be able to survive as I wish. First of all, I must make someone record the kindness of the generals who died in battle with my father, although this is not from my own heart; then, I must obey the opinions of the elders, rush to the battlefield, stay away from my beloved Cuju, and be bound to the unfamiliar horse forever. Ahe, you should be able to understand my misfortune. Things have changed, and only you, just like before, come to see me occasionally, comfort me, and cry with me."

Semine Hime was speechless and didn't know what to do.

The words of Imakawa Shima definitely come from Zhenxin. He neither likes war nor has any ambitions. What he likes is elegant games, women's colors or fine wine. But this mentality is something that the heirs of the Imakawa family should not have. Even Sena Hime suppressed the sarcasm and mockery of the anger, Imakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa said that he had completely forgotten what happened between them, while Imakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa Shimakawa understood that she no longer held grudges and still loved him.
