16. Tokiyori Pardons Nichiren. (3)

            Japanese edition


On the other hand, soldiers guarded it around the Tokiyori Hojou's house strictly. The abnormality was clear.

Tokiyori is lying down in the bedroom. He was closing the eyes. He is still 37 years old.

Tokimune and Tokisuke brothers and Yasumori Adachi looked at him in a side him.

Yasumori Adachi is a vassal. He is 30 years old, at this time. The Adachi clan destroyed two influential vassals called Wada and Miura, and there was the achievement that established autocracy of Hojo. There was not the person who surpassed Yasumori in the vassals.

Lord Kasai of official wife of Tokimune, besides, there was Lady Sanuki of the concubine. Kasai gave birth to Tokimune of the later eighth regent, and Sanuki gave birth to Tokisuke who became elder stepbrother of Tokimune.

Tokiyori opened eyes. Brothers of Tokisuke and Tokimune looked at each other for an instant and muttered at the same time.

“Father”.

While Tokiyori coughed, he raised the upper body.

“This is what's called fate, too. I am not long this world. But I accomplished what I should do. I had defeated many enemies to protect Hojo. I have nothing to regret”.

Tokiyori looks around.

“It is the subject to be left how we continue our Shogunate. Yasumori”.

Yasumori Adachi advances and appears.

“Appoint this Tokimune as a regent in the future”.

“Very good, sir”.

Tokisuke of the elder brother interfered with them.

“Father, I…”.

Tokiyori soothed an older brother.

“From the beginning, I had decided that Tokimune would be the successor to Hojo. Tokisuke, you should assist the younger brother”.

Tokisuke left in anger.

This is no wonder.

He was brought up as the older brother. He had thought that it was natural that he would succeed his father.

However, it is said that Tokiyori doubted whether Tokisuke is a real child. In that case, the successor has only Tokimune who is superior in courage.

Tokiyori stared at Tokimune and told him to be listened to around.

“Your older brother will become an enemy by all means. But rest assured”.

Tokiyori gave subordinates instructions.

"Summons the Heino Saemon-no-Jo".

At this moment, Yasumori Adachi put his hands on the floor and whispered it to Tokiyori.

“Our lord. The character of Saemon-no-Jo is dangerous and brutal. It thinks that there is a problem very much to incorporate that chap in Hojo”.

Tokiyori was remaining silent.
