Chapter 134: Mediation
"Brothers, I'm talking about things I don't understand." Shihe complained angrily.
"If you have time to sharpen your knife, it's better to think and think more." Miyoshi Changqing said with a smile, "Although we are now infinitely beautiful, we are being attacked from all sides, and we are being pinned down everywhere, so don't start a war anymore." What's more, Dan Zheng is quite talented, and if he goes to war, he will definitely lose a lot, and the lord and his retainers will shake their prestige if they start a war. ”
"We killed the person who was right, and Danzheng naturally understood that we had sensed his conspiracy and didn't dare to make any more moves." Yoshiken Miyoshi took over the conversation, "We appointed him as the guardian of Yamato, and it seems that he has been promoted, but in fact he has been squeezed out of the center. ”
"Give him Yamato for this?" Shihe Yicun asked.
"It's like squeezing pus and blood out of the body, and some healthy blood is bound to be lost." Miyoshi Changqing didn't care, obviously not caring about the gains and losses of one country and one city, "But you can't be afraid of blood loss and let the abscess spread." ”
"Since it can't be directly eradicated, that is, the two sides still have to maintain a delicate relationship, so naturally they can't do things absolutely." Miyoshi Changqing continued: "We killed the person who played the right and squeezed him out of the center, so we gave him a Yamato guard, so that he would not immediately rebel and block us. ”
"It's a win-win deal." Miyoshi Yixian checked the money bag in his hand, "Danzheng was also a businessman before, so he won't fail to understand the kindness of his eldest brother." The Miyoshi family is reluctant to keep him, but they are also unwilling to turn their faces. Therefore, give him a guard, let him leave the Miyoshi family with all his forces to develop alone, and don't rebel and cause trouble for the Miyoshi family. Miyoshi took this opportunity to pacify the more important areas first. ”
And Danzheng didn't tear his face with the Miyoshi family on the surface, and he could still rely on the banner of the Miyoshi family to launch a strategy in Yamato to deter others. We take what we need, and we don't get in the way. Miyoshi Yoshiken smiled, "After all, Danzheng is also talented, and we don't want to see him as an enemy immediately." ”
"I don't really understand." Shihe Yicun shook his head and wiped his knife again, "Anyway, when the time comes, my brothers will let me hit whoever I want." ”
"Big brother, then." An Zhai Dongkang, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly raised his head and looked at Miyoshi Changqing, "Where are you next?" ”
Miyoshi Changqing smiled slightly, and the hand holding the chess piece hesitated near that break point, then took it away and did not continue to play. He turned downwards and flew next to a small spot of his own at the bottom of the board, defending a corner.
"After pacifying Hanoi, reduce our garrisons in Son City, Hanoi, Ho Quan, Kii." Miyoshi Chokei unceremoniously reduced most of the territorial garrison of, "Return to the west." The fourth brother is in charge of Sanuki, the second brother is in charge of Awa, and the third brother and I are in charge of the suppression of Settsu, looking for opportunities to raid Harima, Tosa, and Iyo. ”
"Consolidate the root first, then become king." Miyoshi Changqing's hand reached into the black and white chess box, picked up three chess pieces, shook his hand, and threw them to his three younger brothers. Watch as the three of them walk to the edge of the chessboard and press their pieces on the remaining three corners.
"Never be bothered by the glory of ruling again. Whether it's the lessons of the Kiso family, the Ouchi family, or the Hosokawa family, let's be vigilant! ”
On September 4, Sena Shitoshi personally visited Yoshiken Rokkaku and Nagamasa Asai to mediate the dispute between the two families. The two families, who had long been unable to ride tigers, agreed to a truce. The two families sent envoys to meet in Kyoto. The envoy of the Asai side was Haibei Tsunami, while the Rokkaku side was Goto Kento.
After two days of negotiations and consultations, the two sides reached an armistice agreement. The content mainly includes the following articles.
The Asai family broke away from the Rokkaku family and officially became independent. Kanzaki County, Aichi County, and Gamo County have been assigned to the Asai family in the territories occupied by the Asai family, and the Rokkaku family handed over the hostages of the wealthy families in the two counties to the Asai family. The Asai family became a daimyo of 410,000 stone in one fell swoop, and they could compete with the Rokkaku family.
The Asai family, on the other hand, returned the Rokkaku Commander Ashigaru and the Rokkaku Family Governor Rokkaku Yoshiharu who had been captured in the battle, as well as some of the captured armor and weapons.
The two agreed to complete the handover before September 15, and then the Asai family withdrew and returned to Jiangbei.
After this matter came to an end, the Imagawa family's visit to Nijo Harura and Ashikaga Yoshiki was also settled. Sena Shitoshi was given the opportunity to meet Ashikaga Yoshiteru alone, and the young and promising shogun heard that Imagawa Yoshimoto was eager to go to Joraku and defeat the Miyoshi family of Bahu and restore him to power, and 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 aftermaths. After Sena returned with the mission on September 18, the group was ready to say goodbye to the Asai family.
"In just two months, our Asai family has gone from being a vassal of the Yangren to becoming the master of Kita-Omi in one fell swoop, a force to be reckoned with in." When parting, Asai Nagamasa was full of emotion, "Everything, thanks to Lord Sena, brother, Matsushita-sama, and all of you. With that, he bowed deeply, "Changzheng has thanked you here!" ”
"Changzheng, it doesn't have to be like this." Yu Qiuping helped Asai Nagamasa, "If you really want to thank us, work hard to run the Asai family and help us when we go to Luo!" ”
"What my brother said is that I was hypocritical." Asai Nagamasa laughed and asked the attendants to bring his white horse.
"I look at my brother's horse, it's just an inferior horse. A war horse is the second life of a samurai in the battle array, and it is not okay to be so inferior to a horse. As he spoke, he personally handed over the reins to Yu Qiuping, "This white horse, called the pipa, was raised by me since I was a child, and it can be regarded as a good horse for a thousand miles." I will give it to my brother today, and I wish my brother good luck. ”
"Thank you, I'm not respectful." Yu Qiuping felt the gratitude and concern of Asai Nagamasa, and did not refuse, turned over and got on the horse, "Changzheng, there will be a period later!" ”
"There will be a date later!" This is undoubtedly the best blessing for the martial artist who licks the blood with the knife head.
On September 20, the group returned to Akasaka Castle, where they encountered Panasonic's chaos. Panasonic is about to take everyone to say goodbye. Yu Qiuping was slightly reluctant and went to bid him farewell in person.
"Half-guard, I still have something to ask for..."Before leaving, Yu Qiuping spoke.
"Don't worry, Momiji, I will never reveal the news that the Imagawa family is preparing to go to Luo." Matsushita shook her head lightly, "When Momiji mentioned the secrets of the Imagawa family, he didn't avoid me, and he trusted 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 smiled, "Can you leave an address, so that we can write and communicate often in the future." It's rare to meet someone as outstanding as you who upholds light and righteousness, and I am very reluctant to part. ”
Panasonic was stunned for a moment, not only a little moved. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Why don't you leave your address to me, I'll send someone to bring you the letter, and then you can ask him to bring it back." ”
"Okay, I'm on the east side of Suruga Kunifu Castle and west of Ejiri Port." Yu Qiuping smiled, "When the Imagawa family takes Owari, I may move to Owari, and it will be much easier to write to you." ”
"Speaking of which..."Matsushita looked at Yu Qiuping lightly, "I wonder if Momiji has ever thought about the relationship between the Imagawa family and the Saito family in the future." ”
"This..."Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that in the Imagawa family's plan, Mino was also a country that had to be taken. And the Imagawa family and the Saito family, there will inevitably be a fight.
"When the time comes, I, as a samurai of Mino, will do my best." Panasonic said softly.
"I hope there won't be that day, I really don't dare to be hostile to you." Yu Qiuping smiled bitterly, "Even you are so strong, I can't believe how clever that Lord Takenaka Shigeji should be." ”
Matsushita chuckled lightly and didn't say anything more. turned around and wanted to say goodbye, but suddenly remembered something, and looked at Yu Qiuping solemnly.
"I want to implore Momiji, you must uphold your ideals in this turbid and troubled world, the ideal of relying on light, justice and law to end the cycle of chaos." Panasonic turned away lightly, "Because, that's what I see, the only hope to end this tragedy." ”
The team came to Owari, and it was time for Maeda Toshiya to say goodbye. The best friends around him said goodbye one by one, which made Yu Qiuping's heart feel a little empty.
"Speaking of which, can I go see Lady Song?" Yu Qiuping asked, "Don't you always have to compare, who is more beautiful between Mrs. Song and my sweetheart?" ”
"She's pregnant now, and her waist is slim! Can't go now! Maeda Toshiya decisively refused, "When you bring your one over, we'll compare!" ”
The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. Yu Qiuping's heart suddenly throbbed.
I have the chances... There's no way I'm going to bring her here.
Seeing that Yu Qiuping suddenly fell, Maeda Toshiya, who had a tendon, didn't figure out the joints inside, so he tried his best to make Yu Qiuping happy and say good things about him.
"Do you know, you kid is in Owari, but you have a reputation for being a good girl!" Maeda Toshiya patted him on the shoulder excitedly, "The entire Owari has spread all over it!" ”
"Oh? Why is that? Yu Qiuping asked in surprise.
"Isn't it the last time you relieved the siege of Zenshoji Temple!" Maeda Toshiya smiled, "No one expected that you kid would really keep his promise and let go of Sakuma's gang of guys who knew all day long that they didn't have any ability to rely on the old and sell the old!" ”
"Then, ah, all the important ministers of our Oda family were stupid by your actions, but I didn't expect that there really would be such a sincere person." The more Maeda Toshiya talked, the more he laughed, "Everyone celebrates with the crown!" Rejoice! A lot of adults are laughing at your trustworthiness. The old guy in Sakuma also boasted that you were frightened by his majesty and forced to let go. ”
"However, although those adults look down on your behavior and mock you, you have a great reputation among us middle and lower-class samurai and ordinary people!" Maeda Toshiie slapped Yuakihei's chest approvingly, almost pushing the latter off his horse, "Especially the five villages over there that have been blessed by you, help you spread your trustworthiness and your benevolence everywhere." You're about to become a big celebrity in Owari! ”
