Omi Province, or North Omi Province, is now unusually chaotic.

The previous guardian of Kyogoku HD was exiled, and although the new guardian of Kyogoku Takahiro received the nominal support of Asami, Asai and other people, there was no way to stabilize the situation in Omi at this time.

First, there were many people in Omi Province, and not all of them supported Kyogoku Takahiro. Second, the predecessor of the guardian Kyogoku HD still has a lot of diehards in Omi. In the face of the betrayal of his own son, it is naturally impossible for Kyogoku HD to give up, so now Omi is facing the counterattack of Kyogoku HD and Kyogoku Takayoshi father and son.

No one wants to honestly hand over power, Kyogoku HD is like this, and Kyogoku Takahiro is naturally the same.

It was not easy for him to obtain the position of the governor of the Kyogoku family, even if this governor has no real power at all, but he has a name anyway. If Kyogoku HD re-enters the Kyogoku family, then I'm afraid I won't even be able to leave my name at that time. Therefore, in the face of the counterattack of Kyogoku HD, Kyogoku HD can only hope and support his own Asai and Asami.

The current head of the Asai family is Asai Bizen Mamoru Ryomasa, who was born in a tributary of the Asai family.

Ryomasa Asai was born in a separate family of Asai, but he married Mrs. Kuraya, the daughter of Naomasa Asai, and inherited the Asai family as an adopted son-in-law. The Asai family, like the Asami family, are retainers of the Kyogoku family, but they are all ambitious. If it was said that when the Kyogoku family was strong before, then it was not bad for everyone to be a retainer of the Kyogoku family with peace of mind. But since Kyogoku HD showed that he favored his second son, Kyogoku Takayoshi, and despised his eldest son, Kyogoku Takahiro, Asai Ryomasa's mind naturally became active.

Since ancient times, heirs have been the top priority of every power. And the abolition of the long and the young is one of the taboos!

Ryomasa Asai and Sadano Asami took good advantage of this, not only banishing the Kyogoku HD father and son under the banner of Kyogoku Takahiro, but also banishing the people who supported Kyogoku Takayoshi in Kita-Omi, such as Uesaka Nobumitsu and others. After the elimination of dissidents, it is natural that the next step is to fight.

The Asai family is just a small wealthy family whose strength is stronger than that of other people at this time, and the Asami family, who participated in the exile of the Kyogoku HD father and son with the Asai family, is even stronger than the Asai family in terms of strength

Take the stone height of the two families as a comparison.

The stone height of the Asai family is only 30,000 or 40,000 stones, while the stone height of the Asami family is more than 50,000 stones.

However, although the Asai family is lower than the Asami family in stone height, in terms of the reputation of the Omi country, the Asai family is higher than the Asami family.

In fact, the heads of the Kyogoku clan in the past generations were very contemptuous of Kita-Omi, and it was this contempt that led to the Kyogoku clan's increasingly declining control in the territory.

At the end of the Muromachi period, the Asai family, the Akao family, the Hori family, and the Nikaido family were all officials of the Kyogoku family. Even more than 20 years ago, the Kyogoku family still held absolute power in Kita-Omi, but it was only because of a turmoil that the Kyogoku family gradually lost control of Kita-Omi.

Speaking of this turmoil, it is also a moth made by the SB of Jingji HD.

At that time, the head of the Kyogoku family was Kyogoku Chikiyo, who was known as the lord of Zhongxing.

Kyogoku Mochikiyoshi became the head of the Kyogoku family after his death from his uncle Kyogoku Takashu (Kyogoku Takashu also inherited the position of Kyogoku Mochikiyo's brother after his death) and went to the Akamatsu family mansion with Ashikaga Yoshikyo during the Cargill Rebellion.

At that time, Kyoto was in chaos, and Kyogoku was entrusted with the important task of "guarding Kyoto", and then went out to Harima to make a military exploit. After that, the Kyogoku family reached its peak, and Kyogoku Zhiqing served as the "head of the waiter" for 20 consecutive years, commanding the imperial family.

This position was equivalent to the agent of the shogun, and he could command the armies of all samurai families in wartime, and was responsible for the security of Kyoto. Generally, the four famous families of Yamana, Isshiki, Akamatsu, and Kyogoku take turns to serve in turn, but Kyogoku Zhiqing has been re-elected for 20 years, which can be said to be unprecedented and unprecedented!

The so-called prosperity must decline, and the Kyogoku family soon tasted the bitterness.

After the death of Kyogoku Mochikiyo, the Kyogoku family suddenly broke out in civil strife caused by the heir. At that time, Kyogoku Zhiqing's two sons, Kyogoku Politics and Economics, and Kyogoku HD (it is said that Kyogoku HD is the grandson of Kyogoku Jiqing, and this book adopts the setting of his son) fought because of the problem of family governors.

This internal strife, known as the "Kyogoku Riots", lasted for a total of 30 years, and a huge Kyogoku family was directly beaten to pieces.

Izumo Province was also completely seized by Niko for a long time because of this civil strife, and the Kyogoku family only had a little say in the North Omi region.

It stands to reason that Kyogoku HD, which has experienced this big change, should learn a lesson, but unfortunately, Kyogoku HD's mentally retarded behavior once again buried the Kyogoku family.

.......

In Kamihei Temple Castle, Kyogoku Takahiro sat on the main seat without saying a word, and the lady of the main room next to him, Mrs. Kotogawa, who was born in the Akao clan of the Northern Omi Province, could only sit silently beside her husband with a worried face.

The marriage between Mrs. Kotogawa and Kyogoku Takahiro is a typical political marriage, and even a proof that Kyogoku Takahiro is not treated well by Kyogoku HD. At that time, Kyogoku HD was at a critical moment when he was competing with Kyogoku politics and economics for the position of governor, and in order to win over the people of Omi, he let Kyogoku Takahiro marry the princess of the Akao family, and it was also the main room.

To be honest, even if the family name of the Kyogoku family is to be married, it would be nice for a woman from a retainer like the Akao family to be a side room, but it has become a main room.

And Mrs. Kotogawa is also the mother of Master Kyogoku Saburo.

"Your Highness, what happened to you since you came back from Oshang City?" After a long time, Mrs. Kotogawa finally couldn't help but ask.

Although it is a political marriage, the relationship between Mrs. Kotogawa and Kyogoku Takahiro is still good.

"Ah Qin, it's inconvenient to talk to you about this matter, but I'm really annoyed in my heart!"

"Three days ago, I met with Asai Bizen Mamoru and Asami Tsushima Mamoru at Ojo Castle, and during the banquet I proposed to move the castle to this Hama Castle, but Asami Sadama not only disagreed, but instead sent his retainers to enter Imahama Castle in advance."

"Make it clear that this is not taking me, the lord, in his eyes! How is this different from rebellion? Kyogoku Takahiro obviously hasn't adapted to today's puppet status, and he still has the mentality of "Kyogoku is the master", and he can't bear such behavior as Sadashi Asami.

Imahama Castle is located in Sakata County, on the shores of Lake Biwa, and Nagahama Castle, which was built by Toyotomi Hideyoshi in history, was built on the site of present-day Hama Castle. Not only is the scenery far more beautiful than Johei Temple Castle, but the castle town is prosperous, and the land around it is also very fertile, which is why Kyogoku Takahiro wants to make Imahama Castle his residence, but Asami Sadashi is reluctant.

Obviously, Asami Sadano didn't want to see the strength of the main family increase, so he wouldn't agree to Kyogoku Takahiro's proposal at all. And this also made the glass heart of Jingji Takahiro completely shattered.

"Forget it, I'm tired today and don't talk about it. By the way, what about Master Saburo? Kyogoku Takahiro asked, turning his head.

Mrs. Kotogawa hurriedly replied, "Your Highness, Master Saburo was still playing in the backyard just now, so I guess he should still be in the backyard." ”

"Well, I miss this stinky boy after not seeing him for many days. Let's go, let's go and see what Master Saburo is doing! ”
