The Ashina family stopped.

The Date family flinched.

Kasai resigned himself to his fate.

The Osaki family laughed like crazy.

Mutsu returned to a semblance of calm.

But the next door Izumi began to be restless again.

In the same way as the Kasai family, the Daihoji family, a wealthy family in the Shonai area, also received a "Imperial Letter" from an envoy from the Tsugawa family! ”

When it was learned that the shogunate was going to build a "Tsuruoka Castle" on the site of the original Daihoji Castle to serve as the residence of the Tsuruoka Princess, Daihoji Yoshizen scolded his mother directly in Oura Castle.

"It's not been long since the Kasai family's incident happened, is it the family's turn now?"

"This must be a conspiracy of the Tsugawa family, otherwise how could the shogunate send the shogun's brother to a place like Dewa to serve as the Tsuruoka prince, the shogunate has not interfered in the affairs of the land of Okuwa for hundreds of years!"

Dabaoji Yoshizen is not stupid, if it was the previous incident of the Kasai family that could still be called an accident, now the Dabaoji family is also facing the same situation, if there is no one behind this to manipulate, kill Dabaoji Yoshizen and don't believe it.

As for who is manipulating, there is no need to guess at all, as long as it is not a three-year-old child, you can see that this is the handiwork of the Tsugawa family.

"My lord, since the Tsugawa family is acting under the banner of the shogunate, why doesn't the family turn to Uesugi Hall for help?" At this time, Tosabin Zendong, a retainer of the Daihoji family, proposed.

"Noto Mamori is right, Uesugi Palace, as the guardian of Echigo, if he can come forward to negotiate with the shogunate in this matter, maybe things will take a turn for the better!" Sasaki Sadatsuna, the head of the Sasaki family, who has fallen to the Daihoji family, echoed.

Hearing the words of the two, Daihoji Yoshizen was obviously a little moved, and at this moment, a samurai sitting at the top also spoke, "I don't dare to agree with the opinion of Notomo and Sasaki-sama." ”

"Don't forget, this Tagawa County belongs to Dewa, and Hashu is still in the Tsugawa family? Uesugi Hall is the guardian of Echigo, so how can he interfere with the affairs of Dewa? ”

"Besides, even if Uesugi-sama intercedes with the shogunate on behalf of the family, will the Tsugawa family give up? When will the shogunate's orders be able to sway forces like the Tsugawa family? Don't you have points in your hearts? Abe Yoshiki mercilessly objected, "In my opinion, it's better to learn from the Kasai family, at least this way you can save your family's name!" ”

"Humph! I'm afraid that Lord Abe was scared by the Tsugawa family in Yuri County a few years ago, but my Tosa Lin family will never compromise on this matter! After saying that, Tosa Lin Zendong immediately got up and left the castle tower, and when he walked to the door, Tosa Lin Zendo turned around and said resentfully, "You are all rats, how can my samurai in the village be so bloodless?" ”

"Smack! I don't have cowards in the Sasaki family either! Sasaki Sadatsuna also thrust the sword placed on the ground back into his waist and strode out of the castle tower.

Two people were angry at once, and Tosabin Zendong and Sasaki Sadatsuna are now the real power faction in the Dabaoji family, if they lose the support of the two families, the strength of the Dabaoji family will be reduced by at least thirty percent.

"What rude!" Looking at the two Tosabin Zendong who left the table angrily, Abe Yoshiki said with an unkind face.

Seeing that a good evaluation had evolved like this, Dabao Temple Yizeng also shook his head helplessly, and after arguing for a long time, he still didn't come up with a final decision. In the end, Daihoji Yoshizen also felt that it was better to send someone to the Uesugi family to give it a try.

What if it succeeds?

The Dahoji family doesn't want to be like the Kasai family, and if they lose the Dahoji City and the nearby territories, the Dahoji family will basically exist in name only. Although Dabaoji Yizeng's ability is mediocre, he is not willing to become a salted fish like this.

.........

At the same time, Echigo, which was next to Dewa, began to show signs of instability.

Unlike the chaos of Dewa and Mutsu, which began with disputes between external forces, Echigo's instability came from the guardian generation Nagao family.

Since Nagao Jinghu put down Kuroda Hidetada's rebellion twice and governed the central Echigo region in an orderly manner, many wealthy families in the eastern Echigo region also began to take the initiative to contact Nagao Jinghu, such as Nakajo Fujizi and others in Yangbeizhong.

As Nagao Jinghu's reputation in Echigo grew, the head of the Nagao family, who was the elder brother of Nagao Jinghu, suddenly panicked. Especially when there was a message about the retainer wanting to set up Nagao Jinghu as the governor of the Nagao family, Nagao Qingjing was even more eager to arrest his younger brother to prevent future troubles.

However, at this time, the long-tailed Jinghu was far from the fledgling teenager he was at the beginning.

Long-tailed Jinghu can now be compared with Long-tailed Qingjing in terms of reputation and strength, and in this case, Long-tailed Qingjing does not dare to act rashly at all.

And at this time, a bad news also caught Nagao Qingjing and others off guard.

"The lord, the young lord... Young master, he...."As he spoke, the maid who came to report was no longer crying.

Even though he was prepared in his heart, when he really heard that his young son Ape Chiyo had left him like this, Nagao Haruki's heart was also full of desolation. And the misfortune is not a single line, the news of the death of Chiyo, the only son of Nagao Haruhei, suddenly spread throughout Echigo, and it poured a pot on the brazier of Echigo!

Tochio Castle, Nagao Yashiki.

The long-tailed Jinghu, who is only 18 years old this year, is much more mature than two years ago, and has experienced the baptism of war, and the whole person is much calmer. At this time, the long-tailed Jinghu was listening to the persuasion of Naoe Jinggang and others in his ears in embarrassment, and he was struggling very much.

"Lord, Qingjing Hall is dissatisfied with the lord, and there are even rumors that he has always wanted to murder the lord. Now the situation in Echigo is developing in favor of the lord, and the majority of the people in Echigo support the lord. ”

"In addition, because of the new funeral of the son of the Qingjing Palace, many retainers who originally supported the Qingjing Palace have also turned to the lord, this is the best time for the lord to unify Echigo!" Looking at the long-tailed Jinghu who had been undecided, Naoe Jinggang himself mentioned that he was in a hurry.

"However, he is my brother after all, how is this different from the next gram? It's really against the righteousness, and Yu Shi doesn't want to do it! Although the middle two aura on his body has converged a lot, the long-tailed Jinghu has an additional characteristic called "Geng Zhi boy".

"Lord ....." Naoe Keixuna was about to say something, but was stopped by a samurai beside him.

Then, the samurai stepped forward and came to Naoe Jingzuna's side, and then said to Nagao Jinghu with a smile on his face, "Jinghu Palace, it is rumored that you and Dewa's Tsugawa Hall don't have a three-year appointment?" Just by marrying the princess of the Tsugawa family to improve the prestige of the Jinghu Palace, when the time comes, with the father-in-law of the Tsugawa family, even the Qingjing Palace will not dare to act rashly, right? ”

"What Suruga said is true! Let's go to Ueno Castle and negotiate with the Tsugawa family about this matter with Captain Bingwei (Naoe Keitsuna)! The long-tailed Jinghu suddenly became excited, and the touching smile unconsciously began to appear in his mind again......
