"Brothers, you are talking about things I don't understand again." Shihe Yicun complained angrily.
"If you have time to clean your knife, why not think more about it?" Miyoshi Changqing said with a smile, "Although we have unlimited glory now, we are surrounded by enemies on all sides and are restrained everywhere. Don't start a war. Besides, Tanzheng is quite talented, and he is very good at fighting with others.
If he goes to war, he will definitely suffer a lot of losses, and if he goes to war with his retainers, the prestige of the master's family will be shaken."
"We killed Tanzheng's person. Tanzheng naturally understood that we had noticed his conspiracy and did not dare to take any further action." Miyoshi Yixian took over the conversation, "We appointed him as the guardian of Yamato. It seems that he has been promoted.
In fact, it pushed him out of the center."
"For this reason, give him the country of Yamato?" Shihe Yicun asked.
"Just like squeezing pus and blood out of the body, some healthy blood will inevitably be lost." Sanhao Changqing didn't care, obviously not caring about the gains and losses of a country or a city, "But you can't be afraid of losing blood.
Let the abscess spread."
"Since Tan Zheng cannot be eradicated directly, the two sides still have to maintain a delicate relationship, so naturally they cannot do everything right." Miyoshi Changqing continued: "We kill Tan Zheng's person, squeeze him out of the center, and give him a
Yamato protects him so that he will not rebel immediately and cause trouble for us."
"This is actually a win-win deal." Miyoshi Yixian weighed the money bag in his hand, "I used to be a businessman, so I understand my elder brother's good intentions. Miyoshi's family is not willing to keep him, but they are not willing to fall out.
Therefore, give him a guardian and let him take all his forces away from the Mihaoshi Family to develop on his own, without rebelling and causing trouble for the Mihaoshi Family. The Mihaoshi Family can take this opportunity to pacify more important areas first."
"On the surface, Danzheng has not broken up with the Miyoshi family. He can still rely on the banner of the Miyoshi family to launch a strategy in Yamato and deter others. We each get what we need and don't hinder each other." Miyoshi Yoshihide said with a smile, "
After all, Tan Zheng is also extremely talented, so we don’t want to see him immediately becoming his enemy.”
"I don't quite understand." Shihe Yicun shook his head and wiped his knife again, "Anyway, when the time comes, I will hit whoever my brothers ask me to hit."
"So, brother." An Zhai Dongkang, who had been silent until now, suddenly raised his head and looked at Mihao Changqing, "Where will you go next?"
Miyoshi Changqing smiled slightly, and the hand holding the chess piece hesitated for a moment near the break point, and then took it away without continuing to play. He turned downwards and placed his own move at the bottom of the chessboard, next to the small target position.
It flew for a while and then defended a corner.
"After Hanoi is pacified, reduce our garrison in Yamashiro, Kawachi, Izumi, and Kii." Miyoshi Nagakei unceremoniously reduced most of the garrison in Kinki territory, "Return to the west. The fourth brother is in charge of Sanuki, and the second brother is in charge
Awa, my third brother and I are responsible for suppressing Settsu and looking for opportunities to attack Harima, Tosa and Iyo."
"Consolidate the foundation first and then become king." Miyoshi Changqing put his hand into the black and white chess box, picked up three chess pieces, shook his hand, and threw them to his three younger brothers. He watched the three of them walk to the edge of the chess board.
, press the chess pieces on the remaining three corners.
"We must not be bothered by the glory of ruling Kinki anymore. Whether it is the lessons of the Kiso family, the Ouchi family, or the Hosokawa family, we must be vigilant!"
On September 4, Sena Ujitoshi personally visited Rokkaku Yoshihide and Asai Nagamasa, and came forward to mediate the dispute between the two families. The two families, which had been struggling for a long time, agreed to a truce. The two families sent envoys to meet in Kyoto. Asai's envoy
It's Tsunayomi Kaiboku, and on the Rokkaku side, it's Goto Kentoyo.
After two days of negotiations and consultations, the two sides reached an armistice agreement. The contents mainly include the following articles.
The Asai family broke away from the Rokkaku family and officially became independent. The territory already occupied by the Asai family in Kanzaki and Aichi counties and Kamao county was assigned to the Asai family. The Rokkaku family handed over the hostages of the wealthy families in the two counties to the Asai family. The Asai family became the
With the 410,000 koku daimyo, he can compete with the Rokkaku family.
The Asai family returned the Rokkaku Army Ashigaru and the Rokkaku Family Governor Rokkaku Yoshiharu captured in this battle, as well as some of the captured armor and weapons.
The two families agreed to complete the handover before September 15th, and then the Asai family would withdraw from the siege and return to Jiangbei.
After this matter came to an end, the Imagawa family's visit to Nijo Haruyoshi and Ashikaga Yoshiteru also came to an end. Sena Ujitoshi got the opportunity to meet Ashikaga Yoshiteru alone. The young and promising general heard that Imagawa Yoshimoto was eager to go to Luo.
After defeating the domineering Miyoshi family and restoring power to him, he excitedly expressed his support and left a handwritten order. Yu Qiuping was not qualified to visit, so he stayed at Asai's house and helped Asai Nagamasa deal with a series of aftermath matters.
.After Sena Ujitoshi returned with the envoy on September 18, the group was ready to bid farewell to the Asai family.
"In just two months, our Asai family has gone from being a dependent vassal to becoming the master of Kitaomi River and a force that cannot be ignored in Kinki." When parting, Asai Nagamasa was filled with emotion, "Thanks for everything.
Sena-sama, brother, Matsushita-sama and all of you." After that, he bowed deeply and said, "Nagamasa thanks you all here!"
"Nagamasa, it doesn't have to be like this." Yu Qiuping helped Asai Nagamasa, "If you really want to thank us, then work hard to run the Asai family and help us when we go to Luo!"
"Brother is right, but I am being hypocritical." Asai Nagamasa smiled and asked the attendant to bring his white horse.
"I think brother's horse is just a bad horse. When a war horse is in battle, it is the second life of a warrior. Such a bad horse cannot do it." He said as he handed the reins to Yu Qiuping himself, "This white horse
, called Pipa, I raised it with my own hands since childhood, and it is considered a good horse. I will give it to my brother today and wish him good luck in martial arts."
"Thank you very much, I'm not going to be respectful." Yu Qiuping felt the gratitude and concern of Asai Nagamasa, and without refusing, he got on his horse and said, "Nagamasa, see you later!"
"See you soon!" This is undoubtedly the best blessing for the Wu family who licks blood with their swords.
On September 20, a group of people returned to Akasaka Castle where they encountered Matsushita Qingluan. Matsushita Qingluan was also leaving with everyone. Yu Qiuping was slightly reluctant to leave and went to see him off in person.
"Hanbei, I have one more thing to ask for..." Yu Qiuping said before leaving.
"Don't worry Hongye, I will never reveal the news that the Imagawa family is preparing to go to Luo." Matsushita shook his head lightly, "When Hongye mentioned the secrets of the Imagawa family, he did not avoid me. It was out of trust for me. As a samurai,
It is natural to respond to this trust.”
"Thank you, but that's not what I'm talking about." Yu Qiuping said with a smile, "Can you leave an address so that we can write letters and communicate frequently in the future? It's rare to meet someone as outstanding as you who upholds the bright and righteous principles. I
I really can’t bear to say goodbye.”
Matsushita was stunned for a moment, not only a little moved. He hesitated for a moment and said: "Why don't Hongye leave your address to me. I'll send someone to bring the letter to you, and then you can just ask him to bring it back."
"Okay, I'll be east of Sunfu Castle in Suruga Province and west of Ejiri Port." Yuqiupei smiled and said, "When the Imagawa family takes over Owari, I might move to Owari, so I can just write to you.
It’s much more convenient.”
"Speaking of which..." Matsushita looked at Yu Qiuping lightly, "I wonder if Hongye has ever thought about the future relationship between the Imagawa family and the Saito family."
"This..." Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that in the Imagawa family's plan, Mino was also a country that must be won. And a battle between the Imagawa family and the Saito family was inevitable.
"When the time comes, as a warrior of Mino, I will do my best." Matsushita said softly.
"I hope that day won't come. I really don't dare to be hostile to you." Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly, "Even you are so strong. It's hard for me to believe how clever Takenaka Shigeharu is.
"
Matsushita smiled lightly and said nothing more. He turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly remembered something and looked at Yu Qiuping solemnly.
"I would like to implore Hongye to uphold your ideal in this turbulent and chaotic world, the ideal that relies on light, justice and law to end the cycle of chaos." Matsushita turned around and left lightly, "Because, that's what I think.
It's the only hope to end this tragedy."
The team arrived at Owari, and it was time for Maeda Toshiya to say goodbye. The close friends around him said goodbye one by one, making Yu Qiuping feel a little empty in his heart.
"Speaking of which, can I go see Mrs. Song?" Yu Qiuping asked, "Don't you always want to compare who is more beautiful, Mrs. Song or my sweetheart?"
"She is pregnant now. Her waist is already slim! We can't go now!" Maeda Toshiie decisively refused, "Whenever you bring your person over, we will compete again!"
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Yu Qiuping's heart suddenly throbbed.
It's possible...it's impossible for me to bring her here.
Seeing Yu Qiuping's expression suddenly drop, the stubborn Maeda Toshiie didn't think about the joints inside, so he tried his best to make Yu Qiuping happy and say good things about him.
"Did you know that in Owari, you have a reputation like a promise worth a thousand dollars!" Toshiie Maeda excitedly patted his shoulder, "It has spread throughout Owari!"
"Oh? Why is this?" Yu Qiuping asked in surprise.
"Isn't that what happened when you rescued Zenshoji Village from the siege last time!" Maeda Toshiie said with a smile, "No one expected that you actually kept your promise and killed those guys like Sakuma who have always known how to rely on their old age and have no ability.
Let them go!"
"Then, all the important ministers of our Oda family were fooled by your actions. They didn't expect that there is such an honest person." Maeda Toshiie laughed more and more loudly, "Everyone is celebrating with their hats! We are so happy! No!
The young adults are all laughing at your trustworthiness. That old guy from Sakuma even boasted that you were intimidated by his majesty and had to let you go."
"But, although those adults look down on your behavior of mocking you, your reputation is very big among us middle- and lower-class samurai and common people!" Maeda Toshiie approvingly slapped Yu Qiupei's chest, almost breaking his chest.
The latter pushed off his horse and said, "Especially the five villages over Narumi City that have benefited from you, help you publicize your trustworthiness and your benevolence. You have almost become a big celebrity in Owari!"
