Yamanaka Yukimori seemed to be more open-minded than him, he just looked at him and said calmly.

"Sage, Shima Katsuo was born last year, and this year Mitsuhide Akechi, Maeda Yoshida, and the others are also born. Can you give me a child? I am also eager to see it."

Yamanaka Yukimori's tone was flat, as if she was talking about a commonplace matter, which made Yoshigami more and more confused about her thoughts.

The Yukimori Yamanaka whom Yoshigan knew should not be so calm.

That beautiful warrior girl, she should be kneeling in front of Yoshigan right now, screaming at the top of her lungs, begging the saint to send troops to the Western Kingdom to repay the blood debt for Nizi Katsuhisa. That is the Yamanaka Yukimori whom Yoshigan knows.

Yiyin took a deep breath and expressed concern.

"Xingsheng, don't scare me, what happened to you today?"

The calmer Yamanaka Yumori gets, the more flustered Yoshigan becomes. The beautiful girl who used to have a pretty face but no brains seems to have changed. Her appearance is so calm that Yoshigan is a little confused about what she is thinking.

Yamanaka Yukimori smiled faintly.

"Something big has happened in Guandong, and the saint must go back to deal with it as soon as possible. The importance of the Western Kingdom is far less than that of Guandong, and I know it in my heart."

Yiyin narrowed his eyes.

He has obviously issued a gag order on all matters in Kanto. Kinki knows nothing about it and should have kept it a secret for the time being.

How did Yamanaka Yukimori know? When she set off to return to Kinki, there should have been no trouble in Kanto.

Yamanaka Yukimori shook his head and said.

"A saint need not be suspicious.

Ryo Maeda's pregnancy and the corruption in Kanto are all secrets to others, but no matter what I want to know, it's still easy.

Saint, I am your first Tongxinzhongbi, the deacon of the Kanto Palace. People and affairs of the Shiba family can be hidden from others, but they cannot be hidden from me."

Yiyin nodded.

Yamanaka Yukimori has been with her for nine years. He is one of the earliest veterans of Shiba's revival, and he has always held a high position in the inner circle. If she really wants to know something, there are many ways.

Yiyin said frankly.

"I really have to go back to Kanto to deal with some things first. The assassination of Nizi Katsuhisa is complicated and confusing, and it will take time to find out the truth. I can only think about it in the long term.

You came from Kanto to Kinki to greet me. You knew about the Kanto corruption case in advance and came to report it to me, asking me to return to Kanto, right?"

Yamanaka Yukimori couldn't help but chuckle. Although his face was sad, it was extremely charming, not as immature as before, showing a hint of mature charm.

"I left Guandong without authorization and ignored my duties. Instead of blaming me, the saint found excuses for me, which flattered me.

The saint treated me with great kindness and affection, I really don’t know how to repay you."

Yiyin sighed.

"You and Sheng Jiuqing are sisters, I understand your pain, and the issue of accountability is over.

You don’t have to worry about those people in Guandong talking nonsense. If you follow me back to Guandong, there will be a major corruption case ahead, and no one will dare to talk nonsense anymore.”

Yamanaka Yukimori shook his head.

"No one dares to mention it, but people don't care about it.

When I come back this time, I have no plans to go back to Guandong. I just ask the saint to have mercy and give me a child."

Yoshihiro was also shocked when he heard that Yamanaka Yukimori was giving up Kanto, which he had been operating for many years.

You must know that the Yuezhong subordinates under Yamazaka Yukimori are local snakes in Kanto and will never leave their homeland with her.

If Yamanaka Yukimori does not return to Kanto, she is abandoning all the power and position she has worked so hard to earn. Is she crazy?

Yoshigan avoided Yamanaka Yukimori's thoughts and only talked about male and female heirs.

"How can I get something like having a child if I am willing? It's not like you and I haven't worked hard over the years, so just let nature take its course."

A trace of redness appeared on Yamanaka Yukimori's numb face, and his eyes were so persistent that they were a little sick.

"This time is different. This time I will definitely succeed. I know that Nizi Shengjiu will definitely bless me and I will conceive the divine seed of a saint."

Yamanaka Yukimori's eyes were red, and he looked at Yoshigan with tears in his eyes.

Yoshigan couldn't bear to see it, and always felt that Yamanaka Yumori was mentally unstable because he had been too stimulated. He couldn't help but stepped forward, hugged Yamanaka Yumori, and whispered in his ear.

"Don't be like this, Xingmheng, what's wrong with you, don't scare me."

Yamanaka Yukimori fell softly on Yoshigoshi's shoulders and cried softly.

"Shengjiu, she's dead...how could she be dead..."

Yi Gin touched Yamanaka Yukimori's hair and said sadly.

"Shengjiu has left. You have to be strong and go to Koriyama Castle to see her tomb. Don't think too much. Everything will be fine.

I have already made an agreement with Master Nagakaku of Mount Koya to ask Koni, the master of Shingon Buddhism, to pray for her and bury her in Mount Koya.

After she is buried, you and I will return to Kanto and don't make any more trouble, okay?"

I don't know which part of what Yoshigan said was wrong. Suddenly, Yamanaka Yukimori's body was shaken, and he hugged Yoshigan's body with all his strength and begged.

"Give me, saint, please, give me your child. If I don't conceive the divine descendant, I will have no shame in going to Koriyama City to see her."

Yoshigan looked down at the crying Yamanaka Yukimori, wondering why.

"What's going on with you today? You can't do anything without your child. Are you so impatient?"

Yamanaka Yukimori's eyes were red and he stared at Yoshigan and begged.

"Sage knows that before Shengjiu died, he left his last words and asked me to join Ji Nizi's family."

Yiyin thought.

"No? If this really happens, Tachihara Hisatsuna will definitely report it to me."

Yamanaka Yukimori grabbed the saint's hand and said through gritted teeth.

"Shengjiu said, let me inherit everything from her."

Yiyin was speechless, so it turned out to be this sentence.

Tachihara Hisatsuna did mention that Nizi Katsuhisa was stabbed in the heart by a hidden arrow and struggled to say this before dying.

But because Nizi Shengjiu was already dying at that time and could not speak clearly, the meaning of this sentence was not clear enough.

Leaving aside the words "let Yamanaka inherit everything", only Tachihara Hisatsuna could hear clearly, and several people around him couldn't hear it clearly.

Even if those words were really Nizi Katsuhisa's original words, it does not mean that Yamanaka Yukimori was allowed to join Tsuniko's family.

Perhaps Nizi Shenghisa's intention was just to let Yamanaka Yukimori inherit the power of Nizi's party in the mountains, rather than the name Miao of Nizi's family.

You must know that the Nishi family is a concubine of the Kyogoku family, one of the three most prestigious families in the Ashikaga shogunate. At its most powerful, it once ruled the eleven kingdoms of the Western Kingdom, and was known as the Onmyoichi Taishou.

The Miao character "Nizi family" is very important, and the family's character and influence are still there. This is why the Maori family is afraid of Nizi's success in reviving the Nizi family.

The Yamanaka family is just a retainer of Nizi. It is said that they are a branch of the Omi Yamanaka family with the surname Tachibana. They went to the Western Kingdom with Nizi's family and settled there.

As far as family lineage is concerned, Yamanaka Yukimori is not qualified to inherit Nizi's famous Miao name.

In fact, Nizi Shengjiu himself was reluctant to inherit the position of governor of the Nizi family.

At that time, the great names of the eleven kingdoms who developed the Nizi family to the extreme, and the subsequent family governor of the Zong family to which the Yin Yang Yi Taishou himself belonged, were the culprits who eliminated the New Palace Party line and massacred the entire clan.

Nizi Katsuhisa, a remnant of the New Palace Party, was just a fish that slipped through the net and was exiled to Tofukuji Temple in Kyoto for political reasons.

Just because the Nizi clan was defeated, the last family governor surrendered to the Maori family and became a minister of the Maori family.

Unwilling to bow to the Maori family, Nizi's old friends wandered around the country. Finally, Nizi Katsuhisa, supported by Tatehara Hisatsuna, revived the Nizi family and summoned the old Nizi party to plot a return to the Western Kingdom.

Nizi Katsuhisa himself was the political tool used by Nizi's old party to fight against the Nizi clan who had surrendered to the Maori family.

She was reluctant to be the governor of Nizi's family, but Nizi's old party had no other better choice and had to unite as one to recognize Nizi Shengjiu.

But what does Yamanaka Yukimori mean?

At most she is Tatehara Hisatsuna's niece, and she is the descendant of Nizi's family tree. Because Nizi Katsuhisa made a vague statement before his death, she wanted to inherit Nizi's family?

What a joke! The name is not justified and the Nizi old party will not agree at all!

Yiyin was a little puzzled when he heard Shanzhong Xingsheng's words, so he advised.

"Xingsheng, don't be confused. It's not easy for you to inherit the Nizi family..."

Nizi Shengjiu didn't wait for Yiyin to finish speaking, but he already grabbed his arm and interrupted with his eyes widened.

"So, before I go to Koriyama Castle to visit Katsuhisa, I need to be pregnant with your child. Only if I am pregnant with your child can I have the confidence to fight for her orthodoxy and inherit her legacy!"

Yiyin was stunned for a moment, thoughtful.

Logically speaking, it is absolutely impossible for Yamanaka Yukimori to inherit Nizi's family.

Regardless of whether Nizi Shengji's last words before his death were the truth or confusion, even if Nizi Shengji really meant this, the group of Nizi's retainers would not agree.

The family property of the samurai family is not the private property of the family governor, but the common interests of the entire Hime Warrior Order under the family name.

The reason why the Nizi Mountain Party can advance and retreat together with one heart and one mind is because of the close relationship between Nizi Shenghisa and Yamanaka Yukimori, but this intimacy is limited to the friendship between the two.

Yamanaka Yukimori has lived in Kanto for a long time and has not been involved in Kinki affairs for seven or eight years. How can Nizi's old party under Nizi Katsuhisa be willing to obey orders and hand over the family property?

In other words, if Nizi’s old party elevated Yamanaka Yukimori to the throne of Nizi’s family governor, what benefit would it bring to them?
