"Becoming the adopted daughter of the Daiming Lady..." sounds like a leap of faith, but when you think about it carefully, Lorna is completely tied to the Daiming Lady's chariot.

If the daimyo couple were only allowed to successfully raise a child, then the candidate who was suspected of being a daimyo's adoptive son who was trying to kill the competitor would still show some mercy to Lorna no matter how dissatisfied he was.After all, apart from the daimyo's lineage, the collateral line's descendants are not very prosperous... The daimyo's uncle, the father of the daimyo's wife, is the best example.

But it was different when the parents and children who protected the daimyo couple grew up.

Not to mention that children in this era are prone to die young, and aristocratic children who are married to close relatives are more difficult to support than commoner children. Just saying that Lorna has to protect the daimyo lady's children to get married and have children under the watchful eyes of a group of careerists is enough to make those who hide The careerists who fought against each other for more than ten years became murderous towards her.

"It seems that Miss Lorna has other ideas." Mrs. Dayuyuan sighed, knowing that Lorna is not that easy to fool.

After hearing the tone of Mrs. Dayu Yuan, Lorna understood that they still had room for change. After all, it was the daimyo couple who were anxious, not her: "It is not easy to earn money by being a dragon. Besides, the adopted daughter of the daimyo has to bear the responsibility of political marriage. Mission, and my ambition is not in the one-third of an acre in the backyard.”

"Oh! Then where is your ambition? To become a city lord or a famous name?" Mrs. Dayuyuan was very surprised, and even had the mood to joke: "How many declining noble ladies are eager for your opportunity, and are willing to sacrifice 15 years of their life in exchange for it?" A meteoric rise."

"You're joking." Lorna still looked like she didn't have much expression: "If prayer is useful, why do you want to conspire?"

In short, opportunities are not something you have to wait for, but are earned through people.

Mrs. Dayuyuan put away her fan, talked to Lorna about some unimportant matters, and asked them to rest here for two days while waiting for the envoy from Daming Mansion to come and pick them up.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Lorna was a bit dissatisfied with the bed, so she tossed and turned and couldn't sleep on the first night in Mrs. Oyuin's private house. She could only go for a walk in the yard, and met Uchiha Izuna.

"There is no word 'safe' in the world of ninjas." After not seeing each other for a few months, Uchiha Izuna has grown a lot taller, and his face is as handsome as the aristocratic boy on the mural. It is hard to believe that he is a veteran. A ninja who has fought many battles: "Haku from the Senju family and I... Tobirama from the Senju family are keeping watch. Although we are in the mansion of Mrs. Oyuin, we can't let down our guard yet."

Lorna noticed that Uchiha Izuna was still dressed as if she were ready to go into battle, and when talking to her, she also put her thumb against the ring of the sword, as if ready to draw the blade at any time.

"It's really hard work." Lorna knew that Mrs. Ouyuan was generous, and given Mrs. Ouyuan's identity, even if the Senju clan and the Uchiha clan could not get a penny from this mission, they would not be lowered. Their sense of responsibility for this mission.

"It's not too hard. After all, we work in shifts. After a while, I can go to rest." Uchiha Izuna knew that he did not play a big role in the escort mission. He was mainly here to gain knowledge, so he did what he could. Chores: "How did Mr. Ji know Mrs. Dayuyuan?"

Taking this opportunity, Uchiha Izuna tentatively said: "As far as I know, after the Lord of Kaga Castle took power, Mrs. Oyuin rarely appeared in the public eye."

Although the Lord of Kaga Castle is not the biological child of Mrs. Oyuin, given that Mrs. Oyuin has a strong backing and is the wife of the previous Lord, she still received preferential treatment from the Lord of Kaga Castle after she retired, and even became the wife of Kaga Castle. The bridge between the castle lord and the daimyo.

Uchiha Izuna knew that Lorna had been invited by the female ward to treat the wife of the lord of Kaga Castle.

It's just that the Uchiha family's intelligence network is not something to be seen on display.

Although the wife of the castle lord of Kaga Castle is the nominal daughter-in-law and niece of Mrs. Oyuin, the two of them only have a face-to-face relationship.

And an ordinary doctor who treats the wife of the city lord is not qualified to see the wife of Dayuyuan.

"What do children think so much about?" Lorna didn't know what bad idea Uchiha Izuna was planning: "There is a saying that the more you know, the faster you will die."

Although there were not so many shady transactions between Lorna and Mrs. Oyuin, in view of the principle of dealing with things that are too much, she did not answer Uchiha Izuna's question, and even warned him not to get to the bottom of it: "Go to bed quickly!"

Seeing Lorna's posture of coaxing the child, Uchiha Izuna's eyes darkened, and he didn't know what he was thinking about, and he changed shifts with someone an hour later.

As a result, this time it was Uchiha Madara's turn to harass Lorna.

"Why, you're also here to ask about my relationship with Mrs. Dayu Yuan?" Lorna was sitting in the corridor, drinking the green plum wine brought by the maid, when she heard a familiar sound of footsteps.

"Sit." Lorna patted the seat next to her. After a brief silence, the visitor lifted up his armor and sat cross-legged next to Lorna.

"You really don't look like a popular lady." Uchiha Madara looked at Lorna dangling her feet, and after a brief silence, he took the wine glass handed by her: "At least it was at Mrs. Oyuin's residence. Here, please pay a little attention to your image."

"There's no need to be so particular about image in private." Lorna didn't want to sit on her knees like women of this era, with facial veins forming O-shaped legs.

"..." Uchiha Madara just said it casually because of his previous friendship, and had no interest in being a mother to Lorna.

It has to be said that Mrs. Dayuyuan’s yard is very beautifully maintained. According to the Far Eastern dramas Lorna has watched, it is an elegant place where a flower party can be held.

So due to her slight drunkenness, Lorna sighed: "The night is so beautiful tonight!"

After hearing Lorna's words, the wine cup in Uchiha Madara's hand trembled, and he almost spilled a trouser of precious green plum wine.

"What are you doing?" Uchiha Madara concealed his nervousness and glanced at Lorna secretly. It turned out that there was no special meaning, it was just a pure sigh.

Madara Uchiha, who loves to think things over, coughed to hide his embarrassment at misunderstanding the other person.

Fortunately, Lorna's thinking ability has declined now and she didn't notice Uchiha Madara's embarrassment.

"By the way, what are you asking about?" Lorna came back to her senses and looked at Uchiha Madara, who was stunned for a moment, then said: "Did you rescue Senju Itama?"

Uchiha Madara not only knew about his family's alliance with the Hagoromo clan, but also knew about his mother's intention to intercept Senju Itama.

At first, Uchiha Madara would still use this method to be disgraceful, but the wife of the Uchiha clan leader knew her eldest son better than anyone else, and she silenced Uchiha Madara with just one sentence.

"Do you want Izuna to be killed one against two by Tobirama and Itama of the Senju family on the battlefield five years later?"

The Uchiha clan chief's wife, who had been lingering on the hospital bed since the miscarriage, said sincerely: "If possible, I don't want to do anything to the child."

But in a life-and-death fight between rival families, the soft-hearted side often loses everything.

For the sake of her two remaining sons, she was willing to let the Uchiha clan chief's wife go to Abi Hell.

Facing his mother's reply, Uchiha Madara's throat tightened and he couldn't say anything against it.

At that moment, Uchiha Madara really wanted to ask, couldn't they put down their hatred and start a peaceful era?

However, I thought of my own experience, the feud between the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan, and the overly optimistic black face of Senju Hashirama.Uchiha Madara was like an old rooster whose neck was strangled. He couldn't say anything against it for a long time.

……

"I know Senju Banma was intercepted and killed by the Uchiha clan." Lorna nodded, unceremoniously revealing the fact that Uchiha Madara didn't want to tell: "But based on what I know about you, before I intercepted Senju Banma Regarding this matter, you are either the only voice of opposition in the clan, or you are a special case in the clan who is forced to remain silent."

"why."

"Because you are too proud." Perhaps because of being drunk, Lorna lost her usual caution and was more likely to express her thoughts: "Uchiha Madara, I knew you from the moment I saw your eyes. What kind of man is he?”

"You are an overly proud person. Even if you are faced with people and things that have no chance of winning, you will do your best to win." At this point, Lorna also pointed to Uchiha Madara's chest. The nails were broken by the hard breastplate, leaving a rough crescent hanging from the fingertips.

"Only the people you value most can make you compromise. It must be because of this that the Uchiha clan leader and his wife keep you silent." Speaking of the middle-aged woman lingering on the sickbed, Lorna sighed: "Actually, you Both Izuna and I share the shadow of the Uchiha clan leader's wife."

Whether it is appearance or personality, the wife of the Uchiha clan leader has passed on her best side to her son.

After listening to Lorna's words, Uchiha Madara was silent, and then when Lorna was about to leave, he asked: "If I want to do something that subverts the world, what would you think?"

"Huh? It's you who make the decision, why should I express my opinion." Lorna said inexplicably: "Aren't you an adult? You only have one life. On the premise of not hurting others, the strong should have the courage to move forward... If you lose the right to dream, you are a complete coward."

This was the first time that Uchiha Madara was encouraged by someone other than Senju Hashirama in this regard.Even Uchiha Izuna would smile very reluctantly after listening to Uchiha Madara's words, but he would still stand with him.

"But then again, it is useless to dream blindly. Although everyone has the right to dream, the power to change the world must be earned by oneself."

Lorna, who sensed the flaw in her words, quickly added.

Uchiha Madara did not reply, but before Lorna left, he used a kunai to cut off her broken nails, and then polished them smooth with the cross section of the kunai.

"The craftsmanship is pretty good." Lorna looked at the rounded nails, and ended up asking Madara Uchiha to use a kunai to take care of the remaining nails for her.
