Because nobody has NOBUNAGA´s call, without just only two-person;
my sword friend JU-BEI MITSUHIDE AKECHI & me.
なぜならば、招集とは云えど信長様よりのお声がけは、盟友明智十兵衛光秀どのと私以外には、誰にもなかったのだから。
Ī have a reason for faltering on my response to advance a project of 〈AKECHI family & HOSOKAWA family〉,
from Sir.NOBUNAGA´s instruction since 4 years ago．
信長様からの打診である〈明智家と細川家の縁談〉に、４年の年月もご返答を渋っていたのには、訳が在るのだ。
Even though TADAOKI is my son of a successor,
he hurried up to get the ceremony of the celebration coming age,
to fight a big battle with his unit.
忠興は家督を継ぐ長男でありながらも、合戦場に送り出すために「元服」を急いだ。
And, he was invited by Sir.NOBUNAGA as the ODA group member,
to get the vanguard of the great fighting.
It's just the tactics of Sir.NOBUNAGA.
そして、先陣を務めるために、織田家臣へと誘われたのだ。
まさに信長様の作戦である。
It means that;
his plan is to make the strong families of the ODA group.
織田家臣団の結束を強めるために、
So, for example;
two important servants will make a relationship with each family.
However, TADAOKI didn't become 12 years old, at that time.
すなわち、重臣同士を婚姻関係で結び、織田様の身内を固めておく手段なのだ。
しかしながら、その時点で忠興は、まだ１２歳にも満たなかった。
Even I've been a servant of ASHIKAGA´s shogun-ate, yet.
And even again, AKECHI´s Miss.TAMAKO wasn't only just teenage, at all.....and more.....around me.....while Miss.TAMAKO became an elegant lady.....2years ago, a year ago, and later.....among many other feudal lords have paid any attention to her, as their son's successor wife.
さらに、自らは未だ、足利家の奉公衆である。
さらにさらに、その時点で明智の珠子どのは、息子と同い年で思春期にも満たなかった。
１４，１５、、、と妙齢の女性に成長されるに連れ、他の大名方達さえ嫡男の正室にと注目なされているのだ。
