"Nobunaga...surrounding the net..."
———
Xiaotani Castle, the inner room of the residence.
Asai Nagamasa looked at the energetic old mother Asai Hisamasa in front of him with a serious expression.
At that time, Asai Hisamasa made concessions to the Rokkaku family step by step, which made the Asai retainers very dissatisfied. With the support of Akao Kiyosuna and other family elders, Asai Nagamasa came to power, and Asai Hisamasa was forced to retire.
What happened next was that Yoshigan Shiba and Nagamasa Asai joined forces to defeat the Rokkaku army in the battle at Noryada. At this point, Omi's domestic situation reversed, and the Rokkaku family began to decline.
After Asai Nagamasa took charge of the overall situation, the family business prospered. She never thought that her mother, who had ignored everything, could get involved in politics again and force her to have a baby.
Although Asai Hisamasa was alone in front of him, Asai Nagamasa knew that behind his mother was the will of the entire Asai retainers, and it would be difficult for him to go through this.
Asai Hisamasa looked at his daughter with a solemn expression and suddenly asked about his son-in-law.
"How are you, Ichi-kun? You two have been together for a long time, why hasn't your stomach moved yet?"
Asai Nagamasa bowed slightly and answered respectfully.
"Mother, I was busy with housework and neglected the city king, so I didn't have any children for a long time. This matter has nothing to do with the city king. Please don't blame him harshly.
His Majesty Oda's husband, No-kun, has just arrived in Omi Province, and Ichi-kun is taking him around for fun, and he will probably return to Otani Castle in a few days."
Asai Hisamasa shook his head and said.
"It's not sweet to be a coward. It's not a bad thing if you don't want to have sex with him. Why do you need to explain so much to him."
Asai Nagamasa's pupils shrank and he said in a deep voice.
"I have a very good relationship with Mr. Shi, and I would like to ask my mother not to make random speculations to avoid making Mr. Shi sad.
Ichikun is His Majesty Oda's beloved younger brother. If any rumors reach His Majesty Oda's ears, it will be detrimental to the harmony of the Oda Asai family."
Asai Hisamasa nodded and said.
"Yes, even Ashikaga Shogun had to lower his head and call his lord mother. Oda was indeed an incredible powerful feudal lord.
I heard that she wants to borrow a passage from my house?"
Asai Nagamasa nodded.
"Yes, there is civil strife in Wakasa, and the Takeda family governor of Wakasa who is loyal to the shogunate is in a difficult situation.
His Highness Oda intends to send troops to Wakasa country to help the Wakasa Takeda family to eliminate the rebels and put an end to the chaos."
Asai Hisamasa interrupted.
"Did you agree to borrow the passage?"
Asai Nagamasa answered.
"Yes, I have agreed. His Highness Oda will soon lead troops from Kyoto to Wakasa Country, passing through Takashima County on the west coast of Biwa."
Asai Hisamasa said sharply.
"Nonsense! You clearly know that Oda Nobunaga's target is the Asakura family in Echizen Province, and her going to Wakasa Province is a false plan to conquer the country!
Why did you lend the passage to her? Have you forgotten the covenant between the Asakura family and the Asai family?"
Asai Nagamasa said solemnly.
"The Asai and Asakura families have a pact to help each other, but after Asakura Yoshikage came to power, how did he ever help me once?
When the Rokkaku family moved north, my Asai family business was in danger. Did she take action against Asakura Yoshikage?
The friendship of the three-generation alliance has long been washed away by time.
Now my family has entered into a marriage alliance with the Oda family, and His Highness Oda has helped me get back the actual control of the new three counties. The two sides are governed across the river, and the land north of the river is all owned by my Asai family. This is an unprecedented event.
What would she think if I reject the Oda family's request and don't allow His Highness Oda to use the passage? The Oda family is so powerful that even Ashikaga General has to bow his head, so what can I do?"
What Nagamasa Asai said is very reasonable.
Oda Nobunaga's power was at its peak and her arrogance was so arrogant that everyone was intimidated by her power and did not dare to take the lead.
Others can pretend to be dead and be their grandsons, why can't the Asai family? Why should she, Asai Nagamasa, be the one who gets stabbed?
Besides, she is also Oda Nobunaga's younger sibling. If the Oda family really conquers the world in the future, everyone will be the Oda family's dog, and the Asai family's dog will be closer than other dogs.
Learn martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family. They are all sold out. Why pretend to be a chaste and martyr woman? Who is nobler than the other?
