The Conversation between Moroyuki and Masanaga (2)

"So you die for Nambu clan, don't you?" asked Masanaga another question.
"Half."
"What is the other half for?"
"I love Akiie. I don't have my own son. My life after his death is out of question."
"You think he will die this time?"
"He will. His only way to survive and live long is, or was to accept my advice to establish an independent country in Mutsu, independent from the central."
"You gave him such advice? How dare could you think of such an idea?"
"Fujiwara clan did it 200 years ago."
