Chapter 107: The Passage of Azan (II)

After chatting, the Nissin monk from Ishiyama Honganji Temple had more ideas about going to Kyushu to start a business. After all, although he has a famous teacher, he is only a monk of low background, and if he cannot continue to make achievements, he may have to succumb to those mediocre gentlemen, which is unbearable for a young man who longs for fame.

And Suzuki Shigehide, although he is also a little tempting, is more confused. As a man who thinks he has a long-term vision, he doesn't want to resist the unification of the "rolling wheels of history" promoted by the tie Sho Tsuno, but as a hero who is accustomed to living freely, he is very resistant to becoming a retainer of any daimyo - because that means obeying orders and following the rules.

Of course, he was not willing to give up the military power in his hands, let alone die.

So this made it very difficult for the tie.

Since you know the general situation so well, it is naturally inconvenient for me to use black hands. But I can't rest assured that I've been staying in Saga, so I can only drive it semi-forcibly and fight everywhere. However, if you are not willing to bend your knee to allegiance, then you will certainly not be able to grant land, and you will not be able to establish the bond of kings and ministers with the reward of knowledge and deeds.

can only fall into an embarrassing situation where the relationship between each other's identities is very vague.

However, this vague identity relationship is a common feature of the Warring States period.

With the exception of a few powerful lords, most of the rulers reached a tacit understanding with the wealthy clans under their command, that is, they were in the position of acknowledging the authority of the daimyo and maintaining their independence.

When the Hatakeyama family served as the guardian of Kii, the Saga Party was actually in such a state.

But now the actual control of the Hisho Honhide is far from being comparable to the original Hatakeyama family, and the countries of Nankaido have been regarded as areas that will be directly governed sooner or later, so naturally the "people from the rivers and lakes" are not allowed to form a village to protect themselves in the Wuthering Mountains.

If you can really go to Kyushu, where Emperor Tiangao is far away, to grab a piece of land, it will be a place for Suzuki Shigehide.

The problem is that –

Although the Tie Punishment Department does not dare to offend, Otomo Kingo is not an idle person!

Shigehide Suzuki, who has always been brave and fearless on the battlefield, was faced with a choice this time, but he was uncertain, in a dilemma, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't make up his mind.

This made Pingshou Fanxiu feel that this person could only make trouble in the rivers and lakes, and he would not be able to put it on the stage in the temple.

I had to smile and tell him to "think carefully" with a half-threatening smile, and then sent him away.

Next, Shihe Depository and Miyoshi Kangchang visited together in a very covert manner.

The two received a relatively friendly reception.

Although Shihe Depository Insurance is only eighteen or nineteen years old, this person has a very large pattern and far-sightedness, and can jump out of the dead chess game of Shikoku Island to see a broader world. Over the years, he has been leading hundreds of personal soldiers and actively responding to the call of the shogunate to participate in various "just" causes. It's a pity that his ability to do practical things is far inferior to that of Changzong's relatives, and he hasn't won much of his presence after running around for years.

But there is always hard work without credit, at least with a good attitude and a little impression point, there must always be some preferential treatment.

As for Miyoshi Yasunaga, he, an old man over half a hundred years old, can draw a clear line with Miyoshi Changyi, Shinohara Nagabo and others in a timely manner, and jump out of the circle of power, and there is no reason to deal with it.

And these two people also brought An Zhai Xinkang to the door to meet together.

The flat didn't intend to embarrass them in his heart - after all, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing to let the Miyoshi family, which had a glorious history, survive, as long as he managed to infiltrate his own bloodline.

Unexpectedly, these people made a very bold request as soon as they came up:

"I hope that Lord Punishment, you can allow us to kill Hosokawa Sabu (Hosokawa Shinyuki) who has the ambition of the wolf! Miyoshi will be grateful for this! ”

is so straightforward, so that the draw is also jaw-dropping.

……

It seems that the three good families have arrived in this field, and the rest of the party is still arguing.

But if you think about it carefully, Tokawa Depository, Miyoshi Yasucho, and Ataka Nobuyasu can actually represent different factions, but they stand together, and everyone says that they want to kill Hosokawa Shinyuki, and it doesn't seem that simple.

Then, the Shihe Depository, who was in charge, also took out a letter written by Iwanari Youtong.

Pingshou Fanxiu took it and looked at it, and felt even more strange.

In the letter, Iwanari Yu was very cautious and frightened, saying that he didn't want to mess around, and he was really reluctant to help this group of people stand on the platform, but at the end of the letter, he vaguely hinted that Hosokawa Mayuki has always been not a good thing, and he may really be killed.

After reading the letter, he pondered for a moment, and then quietly asked the three people in front of him why they wanted to kill Hosokawa Shinyuki.

The stunned Anzhai Shinyasu immediately said angrily: "I have always felt that this person has evil intentions, and I am afraid that it is not good, but there has been no evidence. However, after listening to the explanations of the Ministry of Civil Affairs (Tokawa Depository) and Yamashiro (Yasunaga Miyoshi), I realized that Hosokawa Sabu (Hosokawa Mayuki) has instigated many conspiracies and tricks in recent years. The internal confrontation within the Miyoshi family has a great relationship with this guy. Not to mention it, let's just say that Awamori (Miyoshi Choji) did something perverse two years ago, probably because of his secret instigation, but as soon as the situation changed, he immediately abandoned Awamori and sanctimoniously regarded himself as the leader of the opposition......"

Hearing this, he only nodded lightly, said "I know" and stopped expressing his position.

Judging from years of experience, Nobuyasu Ataka is an honest person, and he can basically believe what he says. But Shihe Deposit Insurance and Miyoshi Yasucho are obviously not very honest, so the content of the paraphrase is still doubtful.

Besides, making trouble within the Miyoshi family is actually equivalent to doing a favor to the tie, and there is nothing worth punishing.

That's why on the basis of knowing the habits of Hosokawa Mayuki, he still retained it.

The things that made Antaku Nobuyasu resentful sounded worthless to Hisho Tsunoshi.

On the other side, Shihe Depository and Miyoshi Yasunaga glanced at each other, not surprised by the current situation, and then the latter spoke: "I knew that the Lord of the Heishite Criminal Department had always been magnanimous and compassionate, so the old man did not mention the evil deeds of the past. The problem is that the person who swept the department (Hosokawa Shinyuki) has no tendency to change his mind and change his past. Tell me the truth, I'll wait...... We have recently received letters and gifts from people from the mountains, saying that they invite us to 'conspire together' at some time in the future...... This matter, judging from the style of acting, I am afraid that it has something to do with Hosokawa Sweep. ”

Hearing this, Tie Hunxiu finally understood.

Shihe PIS, Yasunaga Miyoshi and others received an invitation from unknown people to "conspire with each other", but they were not moved, but were worried, fearing that the matter would leak out and cause disaster, but took the initiative to stand up and want to betray the mastermind behind the scenes, in order to clear their suspicions.

But there is obviously an unfinished meaning in what I just said.

Without much thought, Pingshou Fanxiu noticed something was wrong, smiled slightly, and asked calmly: "Since someone invited you to 'conspire with great things', it must be as simple as giving gifts!" It is right to be alarmist first, arouse the fear of the listener, and then draw bread to satisfy hunger, tempting with potential gains. ”

Hearing this, Sanhao Kangchang's face was a little embarrassed.

Nobuyasu Ataka was a little dazed, as if he didn't understand.

The young and vigorous Shihe Cunbao replied coldly: "Lord Pingshou Criminal Department, it is really like a god!" Indeed, those mysterious people said that your old man would do something to us, the remnants of the Miyoshi, and promised that as long as we participated in the 'big things', we would be able to take back the reign of Awa, Sanuki, and even Awaji in the future, and revitalize the Miyoshi family. I don't know, how credible are the rumors of the mysterious person? ”

Ignoring the faint hostility in the other party's words, he immediately fought back: "Judging from your words from the Ministry of Civil Affairs (Shihe Depository), you did not immediately arrest these mysterious people with ill intentions, but quietly let them go, are you a little moved by what they said?" Then why did you come to me today? ”

As soon as these words came out, Anzhai Shinyasu was shocked, and Miyoshi Kang Chang's face was afraid, but Shihe Depositor continued to reply stiffly: "Indeed, I was a little moved at that time. But then I thought about it carefully, the other party's sincerity was really not enough, but he wanted me to take the risk first, which was obviously not trustworthy. ”

Hirate Honshu sneered, did not get angry, and continued to ask: "How do you know that these messengers are behind the command of Hosokawa Sabu (Hosokawa Shinyuki)?" ”

Shihe Depositor said solemnly: "I sent someone to investigate, and found that this mysterious person holding the token of the Miyoshi family finally returned to the territory of the Fuliang family on the Awa border. This family is ambitious and talented, and they think that their relationship with Hosokawa Sabu is very hidden, but in fact, many people have realized it. As I traced along this line, I found more and more things, and then I felt more and more that Hosokawa Sabu and his people must not be left behind. ”

"I see...... "I nodded expressionlessly, and suddenly stroked his beard and said, "I have understood the matter." To tell you the truth, I am indeed going to carry out the necessary rectification of the lands on the islands of Shikoku. Just now...... Even if what you say is all true, why do you think that if you betray Mayuki Hosokawa, I will open up to the two of you? Isn't it too late to ask Ataka and Iwanari to intercede until now? ”

Hearing this, Shihe Depositor suddenly blushed and wanted to distinguish something, but Miyoshi Kangchang hurriedly pulled him and hurriedly said, "This is the old man's idea!" The old man can see from the treatment of Changzong's family that although the lord of the Tieshou Criminal Department governs the forces in the territory by various means, he can raise his hand to useful talents. So far, you don't have any idea of banning the finance, taxation, public security, sacrifice and many other powers of the Chozong family in Tosa, so that's right! ”

Tie Tsusho is noncommittal.

And Shihe Depository calmed down a little, and said prostrately: "I understand that the dog guarding the household, I'm afraid I can't expect to be treated like a falcon." But let me start by killing Hosokawa Sweep (Hosokawa Shinyuki) and prove that I'm a falcon and not a family dog! I heard that Tosa's Nagasune Ibu family is preparing to invade Kyushu, and I would like to lead the people with lofty ideals from Awa and Sanuki to participate in the battle as partial divisions! If you are lucky enough to capture the castle, I ask you to allow us to rebuild Miyoshi's family business in Kyushu. In the event of defeat...... Then we will honestly accept your land seizure, knife hunting, knife and many other decrees, and will not cause any trouble. ”

Things are really interesting.

persuaded Shigehide Suzuki to go to Kyushu, but people were still unwilling. On the contrary, it was Shihe Depository Insurance that took the initiative to seek war under the advice of Miyoshi Kangchang.

The former is a well-known fierce general, but he is indecisive and hesitant in the overall situation. The latter is not an extraordinarily warlike general, but can make resolute judgments politically.

Compared with Shigehide Suzuki, Tokawa is much younger and less talented, but he has a more thorough understanding of the current situation and deeply understands how samurai should survive in this Warring States era.

So there is no reason to refuse.

Pingshou Fanxiu nodded, and there was a rare hint of respect in his words: "Since you have such ambitions, of course I should give them a chance." As for...... I advise you to 'conspire with great things', whether it is really Hosokawa Sabu, I will send someone else to investigate. ”

Nobuyasu Ataka was relieved when he heard this.

Shihe Depository was not satisfied, but he was stopped by Miyoshi Yasunaga, so he didn't say anything.
