It was around this time that he received a letter from Nobunaga and renamed it "Nagamasa."

By the way, the picture above is Mr. Nagamasa, but he is still in his twenties.

Despite the marriage of convenience, the relationship between the two couples seems to have been very good, and Mr. Nagamasa must have been a good person.

At that seat, Mr. Oichi was a senior vassal of the Oda clan, Katsuie Shibata . ( Katsue Shibata ) It was decided to remarriage with Mr. She was 25 years old.

Oichi said, " Sengoku's most beautiful woman She said, " Sengoku's number one woman lover She was also liked by Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Since Hideyoshi defeated Akechi Mitsuhide, Hideyoshi's position within the Oda vassals was reversed from that of Katsuie.

It is said that Hideyoshi agreed to marry Mr. Oichi in order to suppress Mr. Katsuie's dissatisfaction.

Suicide in the battle of Shizugatake!

The relationship between Katsuie and Hideyoshi deteriorated the year after the Honnoji Incident and the Kiyosu Conference, and finally Shizugatake ( Shizugatake ) So both can be seen.

When Katsuie was convinced of his defeat, he returned to his own castle and suicide . I will do it.

Summary

This time, I introduced Mr. Oichi, who is being drunk by the rough seas of the Warring States period due to a political marriage.

However, it seems that the marriage with Nagamasa Azai and Katsuie Shibata was very happy.

I think the future of the three daughters was a regret, but I went to marry all the well-known military commanders.

It was about a year with Katsuie, but at the end, they were death poems . I will sing.

Oichi said "She's flirting with the dream road on a summer night."

On the other hand, Mr. Katsuie "Summer night dream road is fragile, give his name to Kumoi Yamahototogisu"

Even if it isn't, the dead bird Hototogisu seems to invite you to Yumeji even though the summer night is short.

It's a ephemeral life like a summer night, but please pass on your name to future generations.

Is it the content like ...

I feel that Katsuie gently wraps the loneliness of Oichi.
