Chapter 1019: Before the Decisive Battle (6)

"Hey, don't hide it from the lord, Qu Naase Michizo said that even if he heals with all his might, I'm afraid he will only have a lifespan of three years at most." This time, because it was the lord who asked, Shibata Katsuya no longer talked like just now, but directly told the truth. And this is also the reason why he came this time to meet the Takayama clan alone, with the current strength of the Shibata family, if he wants to change the family governor, it must be agreed by the clan, so the Shibata Katsu family did not explain, and the clan also knew what he meant.

After hearing this, the clan couldn't help but be stunned, three years? How could this be, but when he just thought of this, he suddenly pulled out a useful content from his vague memory, as if Shibata Katsutoyo did die in 1583, and now it is 1580, it seems that he still has not escaped the arrangement of heaven.

But if that's the case, then the Shibata family is going to have a problem, because of his own appearance, so the Shibata Katsuya has not succeeded to the national pill, that is, the future Shibata Katsutoshi is the stepson, and if it is two points today, the Shibata family will not be destroyed as in history, once Shibata Katsutoyo has a problem, then the Shibata family is not broken bloodline, although the son of another person can inherit the family business, but now with the strength of the Shibata family, the average person does not say that the Shibata Katsuya does not look down, even if he can't rest assured that he can inherit casually, It's a bit embarrassing.

Moreover, Qu Naase Michizo has already made the final diagnosis, and Shibata Katsutoyo's fate should be like this, even the clan can't change it, so now he is not more concerned about Shibata Katsutoyo's body, but about the Shibata family's family business.

So after comforting Shibata Katsuya, I only heard the clan ask from the clan, "Father-in-law, have you chosen a successor?" "For other small forces, or those forces that are not close, they can be assigned at will with the current identity of the clan, but he doesn't want to do this in the Shibata family, he still wants to take his father-in-law's thoughts as the standard, as long as the other party is not a big traitor, even if he can't do it, he won't refuse.

And when the clan sect finished asking, Shibata Katsuya's somewhat sad expression was also reduced a lot, and he only heard him say: "Lord, the candidate for the heir has been selected, but this matter still needs the consent of the lord." ”

"Father-in-law, I don't know who this person is?" The clan did not agree directly, but was ready to ask about the situation first, after the Shibata family in this war, no matter whether the Shibata Katsu family can make great contributions, the clan has already decided to be the Shibata family's stone height is more than one million, and the million-stone daimyo is not something anyone can do.

Since the lord asked, the subordinate said bluntly, and the subordinate hoped to succeed the lord's second son, Ryuo Maru, as an adopted son and inherit the Shibata family business. And ask the Lord for your permission. After saying that, I saw that Shibata Katsuya hurriedly made a big salute, and after that, he didn't get up, but just waited for the decision of the Takayama clan.

For the Dragon King Maru, he has long been a belonging, although Sakura is only his own daughter and has no blood relationship, but Shibata Katsuya feels that his grandson is too much like himself, whether it is personality or martial arts, it is exactly the same as when he was young, which makes his love even more than Takayama Nobukatsu, so this plan is not his temporary idea, but he has long had such an idea, but because he has been cultivating Shibata Katsutoyo as an heir, it has been thirty years, and the strength of the Takayama family has long been different. He couldn't speak for a while, and the matter was gradually put down, but now, as he was old and Shibata Katsutoyo was running out, it reminded him of this matter again.

And in addition to liking, he also thought that if there is Ryuomaru to inherit the family business, then this is the way for the Shibata family to prosper, even if the lord passes on the throne, with the close relationship between Ryuomaru and his brother, the family will not waver, so in his opinion, Ryuomaru is the best candidate to inherit the family.

But when he finished speaking, the clan refused without thinking about it: "Father-in-law, this is not good, if you let outsiders know, wouldn't you say that my Gaoshan clan is going to seek to seize the Shibata family's family business?" No, no, please ask your father-in-law to find someone else. ”

This is just a superficial statement, in fact, after listening to the other party's proposal, the clan couldn't help but say, if the dragon king pill is really passed on to the father-in-law, then this generation is not chaotic, although in this era the generations are already very chaotic, but although the clan has only been two months away from the past twenty years, but the modern thinking has long been ingrained, if you agree to the Shibata Katsuya, then when you see the dragon king maru in the future, will you call him a son, or a brother? It's so embarrassing.

And Sakura was also stunned after listening to it, although she hoped that her son Ryuoman could inherit her father-in-law's family business, although she didn't want to fight for anything, but as a mother, who didn't want her son to be promising, but after listening to her husband's direct refusal, it was inconvenient to say anything.

And Shibata Katsuie, as a traditional samurai, didn't think of this at all, he just felt that the lord was really using this as an excuse to prevaricate himself, after all, the lord is now about to get the world, and his son naturally wants to inherit the famous family, and the Shibata family is not close to the famous family at all.

It's just that he naturally won't change his mind because the lord refuses, so when the clan finished speaking, he only heard him continue: "Lord, although my Shibata family is not a famous family, but under the favor of the lord, there are hundreds of thousands of stone high territory, if there is a dragon king pill inheritance, then after the world is decided, this is only good for the lord and no harm, as for the lord is afraid of attracting gossip, his subordinates feel that there is no need to worry about it at all, once he succeeds, the dragon king pill is the person of my Shibata family, and what can others say." Therefore, please also ask the lord to grant permission, otherwise, the subordinates will cut off the inheritance of the Shibata family and let hundreds of thousands of stone land return to the rule of the Takayama family. ”

Shibata Katsuya has made all preparations this time, before he came, he had thought of the main guild refusal, and he was not without a countermeasure, very simple, if the lord did not agree, then directly said the matter of giving up the family business, in this way, even if the lord did not want to, he had to agree, after all, the clan still refused, that would inevitably cause the world to shake, and now the Shibata family is not a small family, so he took back his family business, and the Takayama clan could not explain it to other retainers at all.

"If my father-in-law really does this, won't he put me in an unkind and unjust situation?"

Shibata Katsuka's temper was also raised, and he only heard him say: "Lord, no matter what this matter is, you must agree." Otherwise, you know the character of your subordinates, and you will definitely do what you say. ”
