Chapter 273 No grass is left
The plan to murder the shogun was not a hot idea of Matsunaga Hide's brain, but after several years of careful consideration he finally made up his mind, and, in the past few years, Matsunaga Hide's was not idle, when the shogun was just about to start working hard, he began to send people around to collect information about Ashikaga Yoshiteru, Ashikaga Yoshiki is now thirty years old, because he is obsessed with kendo more than he loves women, so, the heirs are not prosperous, and he has only two children, a boy and a girl. And they all follow by their side, these two children, like Ashikaga Yoshiteru, Matsunaga Shu has no intention of staying, cutting grass does not eradicate the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows, as the first villain of the Warring States, how can Matsunaga Hide leave a future trouble, leaving them a chance to find their own revenge.
In addition to Ashikaga Yoshiki and his two children to kill, Ashikaga Yoshiki also has a cousin, a younger brother, one of whom is the younger brother Ichijoji Kakukei had a bad relationship with the family before, Ashikaga Yoshiki knew that it was not the time to turn against the Miyoshi family, so he had to order his brother to become a monk in Ichitsuneji Temple, so that he would not continue to cause trouble for himself, and his name came from this.
And Ashikaga Yoshiki's cousin - Ashikaga Yoshiei, is an out-and-out gentleman, all day long except for fun, nothing else, and because the Ashikaga family is very embarrassed financially, it is impossible to support him such expenses, so, resulting in brother discord, when Miyoshi Nagakei keenly discovered this situation, and then did not hesitate to provide a lot of money for Ashikaga Yoshiei to eat, drink and have fun, and make friends with him, the purpose of Miyoshi Changqing is nothing more than to pull Ashikaga Yoshiki off the horse at the right time, Support Ashikaga Yoshiei to ascend to the top, so as to achieve the goal of dominating the world.
Although Miyoshi Nagakei has now passed away, the Miyoshi family's financial supply to Ashikaga Yoshiei has not been interrupted, and as for this incompetent Ashikaga Yoshiei, Matsunaga Hide not only does not want to kill him, but also wants to support him to become the next general of Seiyi.
Ashikaga Yoshiei is an incompetent person, and he only knows pleasure, and has no interest in the world at all, so that such a person can become a general of the Seiyi, as long as he is supported by good food, good drink, and good treatment, he has been treated well by the Miyoshi family, and after he killed Ashikaga Yoshiteru, he should not contact other daimyo to crusade against the Miyoshi family.
Moreover, there is another point, that is, after Ashikaga Yoshiei takes the throne, then with his status in the Miyoshi family, it is easy to control the public family, and at that time, he will be the lord of the world, the more Matsunaga Hide, the happier he became, and he couldn't help laughing.
Seeing that Matsunaga Xiu suddenly laughed thoughtlessly, thinking that he had thought of some foolproof plan again, they only heard Miyoshi Masayasu ask: "I don't know why Matsunaga-sama is laughing, can you tell us and the other three of you what you have in mind?" ”
Matsunaga Xiu, who was dreaming of the Spring and Autumn Festival, was reluctantly pulled back to reality by these words, of course he would not tell the three of them the big rebellious thoughts in his heart just now, and after coughing in embarrassment, he only heard him speak: "Three adults, the perfect strategy is not thought of in the future, however, in the next opinion, just killing Ashikaga Yoshiteru alone is not enough to make the Miyoshi family as stable as Mount Tai, and according to the opinion of the next, it is necessary to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, only in this way, can the future troubles be forever." ”
Speaking of this, Matsunaga Shu glanced at the three of them, and then continued: "Especially his younger brother Ichissunera Kakukei, this person has the greatest hatred for the family, and he must not stay, if Ashikaga Yoshiteru dies, he succeeds him as general, then the family will be even more dangerous......"
Before Matsunaga Shu finished speaking, he only heard Miyoshi Nagayi ask: "Dare to ask Matsunaga-sama, what should Ashikaga Yoshiei do?" The ancestor had a testament before he died, this Ashikaga Yoshiei left a great use for the family, if the Miyoshi family wants to dominate the world, then his help will be indispensable in the future, I don't know how the adults will arrange? ”
Matsunaga Hide's question has already been thought about, if that Ashikaga Yoshiei is obedient, then support him to be the next general of the expedition, anyway, at that time, other families can't say anything, if not, then this Ashikaga Yoshiei can only go to Huangquan together.
Thinking of this, I only heard Matsunaga Xiu say: "Three adults, at this time and that time, the strategy set by the ancestor when he was alive is already a little out of place, of course, if he is still the same as before, then support him to become a general, if not, then he must not be allowed to survive in the world." I also asked Lord Miyoshi Nagayi to work more and send someone to watch Ashikaga Yoshiei's every move. ”…,
Miyoshi Changyi had no choice but to nod his head, which was considered to be in agreement with Matsunaga Xiu's proposal.
As the strategy was set, the assessment room was quiet again, and the three of them knew that Matsunaga Xiu was about to assign a task, although the three of them were not wise enough, but none of them were fools, and it was better not to let yourself complete such a thing as murdering the shogun, after all, if it was spread out, his reputation would be completely ruined, and he would never be able to turn over, it was best to let himself kill Ichisuna Temple Jueqing, although he was the general's younger brother, but, after all, he was not a general, even if he was killed, Even if it has some impact on their reputation, it is also within their own tolerance, thinking of this, the three of them involuntarily lowered their heads.
How could Matsunaga Shu not guess what they were thinking at the moment, and he had already made a statement, so he only heard him speak: "Three adults, killing Ashikaga Yoshiki must be successful at one time, and with the strength of our army, if we don't jointly send troops to Nijo Castle, it will be difficult to succeed, so, I think that three days later, the four of us will each send out 500 troops to attack Nijo Castle, only in this way, can we ensure that nothing goes wrong, I don't know what the three adults think?" ”
After listening to the three of them, although they failed to achieve the ultimate goal, however, the notoriety of this murder of the general is shared by the other three people, which is also fair and reasonable, however, a new question arises again, if the four of them lead the army to attack Nijo Castle, then who should be handed over to Jueqing in the Ichiyoji Temple to kill with his own strength, and the five hundred troops are already the limit, how can they still have the ability to discharge another army to fight?
The land under the rule of Matsunaga Shu must have more by himself, but if he is allowed to fight on both sides, he will have more than enough strength to do so.
Thinking of this, Iwanari Tomotomi, who had not spoken for a long time, asked: "May I ask Lord Matsunaga, if the four of me and the others all go to Nijo Castle, what should I do with the Ichijoji Temple Juekei, in case when we lead the army to attack the city, the other party gets the message and escapes first, then if you want to kill him again in the future, it will be a little difficult, and if other powerful forces take the opportunity to support him to ascend to the throne and gather other daimyo to come to crusade, then the Miyoshi family is in danger, please think twice." ”
