Since the departure of an army of Kuroda Rushui from the land of Kurumi, I will return to the story just a little bit.

In the land of Kurumi there was a great army approaching at a fierce rate.

The number of its soldiers, roughly 10,000.

Especially the Admiral's young man, who was jumping to the head and flying his horse, kept his eyes running blood and whipping his horse.

"Hurry! Hurry! Anyway, hurry!!

He shouted up and flew his troops north and north toward Kurumi.

Its flag is a cross on the circle…

i.e. Shimazu Army.

And the general, who led the army, was the son of Yoshihiro Shimazu, the master, the next Shimazu family owner, Tadahiro Shimazu.

But that army did not come to help Yoshihiro Shimazu, who overthrew Yoshimasaki Tanaka's army in the land of Kurumi.

"You're definitely going to stop that stupid dad!!

had the opposite purpose.

………

……

It was only three days ago.

Zhongheng Shimazu, who lived in Kagoshima Castle, where completion was approaching, was still drawn to his room.

With such loyalty, a man came to Kagoshima Castle, a joyful loyalty, near Zhongheng's side.

"Welcome. It never occurred to me that you could come to Hideaway yourself."

"Hehe, welcome and good luck.

Sometimes it's not a bad idea to go outside. "

The man's name is Yoshiku Shimazu. He came to the front of the big gate with a smile on his serene expression.

"But now, Zhongheng said no one should come near your room..."

"Hehe, this Shimazu Yoshiku came himself.

Get rid of it in front of the gate...

Loyalty has become great… "

That smile remains the same.

But...

Loyalty unwittingly turns its back on the purple shadow that emanates from behind it.

"Yes... no... but..."

And even though he was indulged in that long-established air, loyalty was faithfully trying to keep Zhongheng's "no one near my room" command.

In response to him like that, Shizuku told him in a calm voice with no discouragement.

"With that said... Shimazuku, who died, has no children, and I have no one to inherit that knowledge, but I am in trouble...

I thought it would be okay for you, the loyal son of loyalty, to inherit his knowledge and give him Shimazu's name.

But...

Too bad...

Loyalty thinks you don't need my mouth to pay for me... "

Faithful to the word, he changed his blood phase and bowed his head for a long time.

"Also, sorry!!

Let me show you to Zhongheng's room, please follow me!!

Yoshiku laughs with a grin.

"Well, thank you."

And Yoshiku followed the back of loyalty that went ahead with the great strand without making any footsteps.

Moving on inside the castle for a while, in front of the great bamboo, loyalty stopped.

"It's in here."

And, loyalty bows its head for a long time.

"Hmm, thank you for your hard work. You may step back now."

"But... I don't care how much Shizuku-sama... I was wondering if I would ever open this..."

And Loyalty said with a bitter laugh.

"Hehe, don't worry... because..."

And Yoshiku replied with a smile...

- Bam!!!

What a momentum he had opened without ever speaking to Zhongheng inside.

"So who!!? Without my forgiveness!! You rude bastard!!

And I heard a cry from behind.

Then Yoshiku disappeared into the room without making any footsteps.

The loyalty that was left alone outside of the * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Then…

"Also, sorry!!

I heard Zhongheng cry, so I shook myself at the nasty events that would have happened in the room.

"Don't sneak up on the untouched god..."

And, of course, without thinking about going to help the crying Zhongheng, loyalty was behind the scene.

………

Some time after Yoshihiko entered Zhongheng's room, Zhongheng finally broke out of the curse of fear, and said to Yoshihiko, obstinately.

"I'm so sorry I led the soldiers to stop my father! No matter how much my uncle ordered, I absolutely don't like it!!

"Hmm... why do you refuse so much?

"Heh! Then I ask the other way, why does your uncle want me so far to the battlefield!?

I guess you're not expecting an 'accident'!?

I'm not getting in that hand!!

Am I in an accident?

Yoshiku replied with a sigh against Zhongheng, who turned away his face.

"Isn't it decided because only you can stop Yoshihiro..."

"Heh! Do you think I can stop Tsujima?

Didn't you think... if my father and I fought each other and stabbed each other to death, my uncle would get everything about the Shimazu family!?

Ahhh!!

Absolutely!!

Danger, danger!

Didn't you end up like that when you said, "You're the only one..."?

My idiot!

Zhongheng becomes more and more solid.

To its depressing appearance, it was not frustrating, and Yoshiku continued in a calm tone.

"Ha... so you can't help it... no more, it's no use asking,"

Zhongheng, feeling suspicious of the tone he had given up, turned his back, but saw a slight indulgence.

Without missing that moment, I thought Shizuku had put something out of his nostalgia, and immediately put it back together.

"Hey, what is it? What's that?"

And, Zhongheng asks unexpectedly.

It was then...

- That took...

Goosebumps appeared all over his body when a very low and vague voice echoed directly into Zhongheng's heart.

But Yoshiku, the bearer of the voice, answered pale with the same smile.

"Oh... have they noticed...

But... this is useless... "

"Hey! What the hell is it!!? Wouldn't that bother you extra if they told you that!?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. That's enough.

Then We shall go away.

In case Yoshihiro wants to attack Lord Tokugawa's army...

"The Example Thing" with forgiveness in this letter, etc...

Because it's never going to happen again... "

And Yoshiku said emphatically the "example thing" part.

Obviously, Zhongheng's curiosity keeps the conversation moving forward, even though he knows about it during the procedure for a long time.

"Hey! What do you mean," example thing "?

And who did you get that forgiveness from!?

You have to be clearer, it won't tell you at all!?

Then, standing on the spot for a long time,

"You did. I'm sorry I did this.

Now let's get this straight. "

When I said, I lowered back again on the spot.

And he reinforced his voice and continued.

"Because you always put all your hard work on the Lord...

I wanted to show you at least my apologies and gratitude, and I kept the forgiveness of the example for your Lord. "

"So who did you get it from? Forgive me..."

In his questioning of loyalty and hence, his eyesight sharpened for a long time.

Seeing that gaze, Zhongheng realized who the hell the person with that permission was...

"No way..."

Yoshiku replied with a gentle tone when he laughed at Nicole.

"Hehe, that's a good idea.

Yes, it's Lord Tokugawa. "

"Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!!!?

And Zhongheng was amazed at all the bubbles.

- I can't believe your uncle was negotiating something with the Tokugawa family... and for me!?

When that happened, Zhongheng couldn't help but wonder about the "example thing".

"So what the hell is' example thing '!?

When Yoshiku blushed his cheeks a little, he answered in an unspeakable manner.

"It's...

Isn't it decided that the Lord has always been greedy...

Don't make me say any more... "

"What I'm craving..."

And Zhongheng conceived...

That's what he wanted most...

And what I always said publicly about it...

At this time, when a thunderous shock ran through Zhongheng's body, one thing came to mind.

- Yes, it must be...

So Zhongheng was convinced without foundation.

What that wanted...

- Side room!!!!!

Unexpectedly, he turned away to hide his long-facing face. And his face was scorched in the midst of his eyes.

It should be noted that around this time, Zhongheng has no other side chambers besides the regular tortoise life. Because it was strictly forbidden to do so.

But Zhongheng was not comfortable with Turtle Shou.

The reason is simple.

For all her face, and all her tricks, are her father, Yoshiku Shimazu and Melon.

I have no idea what you're thinking, a smile, too thin an eye I don't even know if it's open, an attitude of spare time that always sees through Zhongheng...

When I'm with her, I don't feel like I'm with her for a long time.

But he is also a full boy.

I like women in the crowd.

No, for what I've been suppressed, I may have more desire than a crowd.

Put it on something, wanting a side room has been a public statement, and I've been pleading with you for a long time.

But I finally didn't get that forgiveness after so long.

- Let's think about it after we become the man we deserve as the Shimazu family owner...

and…

But...

Now that's...

I was finally forgiven. And I assumed it on my own.

Finally, he was recognized as the "Han" that the Shimazu family deserved. And, Zhongheng interprets.

He shouted in his heart as he turned his back for a long time and unwittingly consolidated his fist.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Come on!

And when he was made aware of such excitement, he asked for a long time with his back turned.

"Well, well, well, well, you know, you don't mind if I do, do you?

The too much voice of excitement shivers. But Yoshiku answered in a serene tone that remained completely unchanged.

"Hehe, it would be obvious. If you can stop Yoshihiro, just do whatever the Lord wants."

- As much as I like... Shh...!!

To the word, Zhongheng fell.

When he stood up, he spoke to Shizukuri as he sat down. The face is a sensation of 'Han'.

"Uncle... if that's all you have to say.

Once Zhuge Confucius Ming was also said to have been heartbroken with thanks from a third hand.

His uncle's enthusiasm was even better for me than Liu Bei's thank-you for his triple patronage.

As this Shimazu Zhongheng, Shaw's nephew, and the next Shimazu family owner deserves to be a Han, let's stop his father's foolishness in good standing.

And the "example thing"...

No, it's not if you're up to something like that right now.

Bye! I'm going!!

And, to tell you the truth, he left the scene as early as light.

I tried to swap with him like that, and Turtle Shou brought me tea.

"Oh. Looks like it was a little late to bring some tea."

I'm sorry to say that, Yoshiku called out to Turtle Shou, still sitting down.

"Just fine. Turtle Shou, I need to talk to you.

Put it there. "

"Yes... what can I do for you?"

And, curiously, Turtle Shou asked, lowered his hips.

"Well, why don't we have both of those teas first"

"But this was brought to you by Father and Zhongheng..."

"Hehehe, his loyalty will be in the battlefield no more, body and mind"

"Oh... so you've finally made up your mind. But why...?

And, Turtle Shou asks while serving tea for a long time. Then Yoshiku answered by sipping the tea served.

"Tortoise life. To Zhongheng, I have forgiven one thing after the success of this time.

I wanted to tell you about it. "

"Well, let's see what it is. Is it something to do with straw?

"Oh, it has something to do with it"

When I said that, Shizuku's face clouded.

And when he saw his face, one thing flashed.

"Is it… that Zhongheng was forgiven for having a side chamber...?

In the words of Tortoiseu, the expression of Shizuku became all too harsh.

"Zhongheng said it was a side room!!? There is no way I would allow something like that!!

and the long standing voice to drink was loud enough to tremble the castle still nearing completion.

Turtle life unexpectedly opens its eyes and loses too many words of surprise.

Against her like that, Shizuku returned to her original serene expression.

"Sorry. I yelled at you.

Turtle Shou... you thought this Father would forgive you for something that would grieve your Lord... "

I apologized for the disturbance. It was a long time ago, but Turtle Shou still did not break his surprise look, and his voice nonetheless inquired calmly.

"So what the hell did your father forgive you for?

"To meet Tokugawa Jiayang and apologize."

"Well! I don't..."

"Ha-ha-ha, didn't he always say:

If you don't apologize to Tokugawa, Shimazu's house is in danger...

That's why I hung up with Jiayang Tokugawa and created an opportunity to apologize.

As a result, Jia Kang also replied, "If you hid Yoshihiro and took Zhongheng as your master, let's get an apology."

So Zhongheng went to apologize to Jiayang, and in order to do that, Tortoise... I want you to accompany him. "

When I said that, Yoshiku took out a letter that had gone to his chest.

"So your father gave you an apology to Tokugawa, where Zhongheng was wanted, so that Zhongheng himself could protect Shimazu's home.

If your father wishes, Wawa will accompany you to the Temple of Zhongheng.

It's been a long time since the city of Kyo has been here. "

"Hehe, good reply. Besides, Turtle Shou can swallow fast."

"The Lord Zhongheng, who learned about it, made his nose rough, as he had done earlier, and he appeared in an exhilarating formation..."

To the words of the tortoise, Yoshiku put his hand on his chin and looked at the ceiling, as he thought a little.

"Speaking of which... Zhongheng might have only told you 'about the example'... this has been 'accidental'..."

Turtle life chuckled at the condition of the father.

"Hehe, even your father can be 'accidental'"

Parents and children were slowly scrubbing their leftover tea, laughing meaningfully.

………

……

"I am Shimazu's next head, Shimazu Zhongheng!!

My father, Yoshihiro Shimazu, the current owner of the Shimazu family, had a ritual to offer!!

Everyone's!! Put down your weapon!!!

and Zhongheng Shimadzu, who had proceeded single-handedly in the middle of Tsukuba Plains, spoke courageously and loudly to Yoshihiro Shimadzu's forces and to the forces of Kuroda and Hoshikawa, who were staring across the river.

The sudden appearance of Shimazu's great army and the words of his loyalty and hence all the soldiers on the spot were bewildered, and the killings that had covered the Tsukuba Plains until earlier had been solved.

In the meantime, Yoshihiro Shimazu has slowly progressed from 10,000 troops, this one alone, to Zhongheng's front. Its overwhelming intimidation is such that it inadvertently gives goosebumps to the arms of the soldiers of Kuroda and Hoshikawa, who are wanting to get away from it.

If you are a regular Zhongheng, you have just seen that look in front of you, you are just blowing bubbles and escaping, but all this time it was different.

Because he has a reason to never lose.

"What can I do for you? This is no place for cowards like you to come. Depending on the answer, you have to start with your neck..."

And, while riding the horse, Yoshihiro showers his ragged sharp gaze with fidelity.

However, Zhongheng, instead of being frightened of his gaze, has opened his eyes so as to look back.

Yoshihiro raised an admiration in his heart for the way it looked.

- Well... I don't know what happened to this guy, but you look like 'Han'...

"As I said earlier! I talked to my father and I've come this far.

Father, depending on that response, keep in mind that I will not condone it!

"What...?

And, Yoshihiro, speaking in a low voice, leaned the horse perfectly, so close to whether his face would stick together, and stared at Zhongheng.

But Zhongheng can't beat Yoshihiro either. Zhongheng was also staring back at him when he hit his helmet with Gatsun and Yoshihiro again.

The tingling stare lasts for a while.

Noticed, both Nagata Kuroda and Tadahiro Hoshikawa stood at the forefront and looked at the situation.

"Isn't that funny? Let me hear your words."

And with his helmet and helmet bumped, Yoshihiro said.

Then Zhongheng takes a little distance and rides the horse. And when I breathed in heavily, I exhaled it all at once.

It was the next moment...

Ba suddenly raised his hands high, Zhongheng...

Widen your legs to about shoulder-width apart and you can focus much more on your legs...

And...

"hey... what are you doing...!?

Yoshihiro unexpectedly loses his word. Everyone on the spot doubted the sight...

What is that sight...

Tadahiro Shimazu sat down and rubbed his head to the ground.

"Uncle no no no no!!! Listen to me. Yay!!

and Zhongheng raised enough screams to reach heaven in that state.

Yoshihiro is nothing more than blinking, as if he had forgotten all his words.

And Zhongheng, with all his strength, said away.

"Please... please get me out of the army YAY!!! This and OOOOOOO!!!

As if it had emitted light, Zhongheng, who had made a dugout, was shining in the Tsukuba Plains.

And...

He became a legend.

What an unprecedented word, to remain in future generations.

It's "Lord Satsuma's earthly wish"...

Having also moved the mind of a man known as Tsujima Tsu, even if he was hostile, he began to say so with such enthusiasm that he listened to his wishes…

Thus, Yoshihiro Shimazu's army was completely rendered powerless in the battle of Kurumi.

And without just reducing a single soldier, the disabling of Yoshihiro Shimazu's army, which boasted of its invincibility, is considered "the number one battle merit in the battle of Kurumi America," etc., which will have a significant impact on Shimazu's later manners against Chungheng Shimazu...

At this time, it did not matter to Zhongheng, whose head had been filled with the "example thing"...
