16. "Righteousness" is unavoidable
My front teeth bit my lower lip with a look of "grief and indignation"! In fact, I did this to keep myself from laughing, because I knew that I definitely couldn't "laugh" at this time. I secretly pinched my thigh with my hand, and I felt a little better.
"Qing Gong ...... You must ...... Do us justice! Not far below, Takaya Ryoei trembled with a fat face and cried and shouted, tears flowing in his eyes. The same is true of the four sons around him who look very much like him (please think of the image of a pig) and several influential Tango wealthy families, there is an old man with white hair and white beard who seems to be in poor health, and he actually faints from crying all of a sudden! The reason why this "farce" was staged was precisely because of Xianzhi's words, and the "better" result was really produced!
After hearing the suggestion to hand over the territory of the Inatomi family to Isshiki Yoshimichi, Nagano Yoshimasa, Takenaka Hanbei and others expressed their unanimous approval. Of course! I didn't tell them that the idea was from Senshiba, and I didn't say the real cause of death of Inatomi and his son. As a result of the discussions, Gamo Fuhide's suggestion was adopted, and the road to Kyoto was paved without waiting for Isshiki Yoshimichi's reply.
I wrote a letter to Oda Nobunaga and sent Pegasus to Gibu, in which I tried to show the benefits of using thousands of stone of land to win over such an "empty shelf" as the Isshiki family, and the great significance for stabilizing the hearts of the people of the western country. Oda Nobunaga was undoubtedly a decisive man, and immediately affirmed the plan, and blew the "wind" in the imperial court.
Since this is the case, I will not delay any longer, and the still water Youhu brought a large amount of money to Beijing under my dispatch, and I also brought a letter to Ji Xiu in Zhengqincho. The power of money is really resonant, and many ministers have praised my "virtue" when they told the emperor about it! As a result, within a few days, the Imperial Court officially issued an edict praising me and at the same time sending a messenger to Tajima to announce the decree to Isshiki Yoshiki, with the main envoy being Harumi Tsujiji and the deputy envoy being Takakura Eitakaka.
To be honest, I didn't expect such a good effect, but this move actually caused a small shock among the nations! Persuasion Temple Qingyou is not very active among the ministers, and he is not very famous, in terms of background, he is only a famous family lower than the traces of Yulin Gate, but his influence must not be underestimated. His daughter is the main family of Prince Seihito, so this one has the status of "quasi-national prince", and his duty in the court is "samurai legend", such a character is really face-saving!
The still water ghost fox completed the task in less than ten days back and forth, and the cost was only a "small money" of three thousand and several hundred. This result made me realize a problem more deeply: the price of bribing the minister is actually cheaper than that of pirates! I don't have any worries about everything developing to this extent, and the attitude of Isshiki Yidao is irrelevant at the moment, and as the Qincha is getting closer and closer, the image of my "sage" in the world has gradually been established.
But at this moment, although Isshiki Yoshido has not yet expressed his position, an "accident" happened that made him shut his mouth forever! Yamana Yutoyo's son, Yamana Shimasa, killed Isshiki Yoshido and Yoshida father and son who lived in the Ishiki Inn, and the reason was just for the two sentences of a singer: "Speaking of which, His Royal Highness's martial arts have never won a famous general!" Now even the bereaved dogs that have been taken in are leaving you, and it really brings shame on the prestige of the 'One-Sixth Palace' since His Royal Highness Shi's reign! What's even more ridiculous is that not only that, but the whole thing is done in plain sight and every day, even if he wants to deny it!
Halfway through, Chincha was frightened back by Yamana's "brutality", and his speed was far from comparable to when he came! The general public opinion in the world is that the fate of Isshiki father and son is "pathetic"; feel "sympathetic" for my kindness in exchange for this result; "Confused" by the arrogance of Yamana's family; To Oda Nobunaga...... Feel "ridiculous"! Oda Nobunaga, who controls in a dignified manner, and the right general with a higher grade than Ashikaga Yoshiaki, is now actually slapped with such a loud big mouth by such a "broken household" as Yamana, I am afraid that many people have laughed openly or secretly!
Now no one is suspicious of the cause of death of Inatomi and his son, no matter who asks, he will answer in the affirmative that the "murderer" is the Yamana family! What else is there to say about this, who doesn't know such wolf ambitions in the world?
All the wealthy clans of Tango ran to me together, and unanimously asked me to send troops to punish the retrograde of the mountain family, Inafu and Isshiki can be described as a deep feud in the sea of blood, even for their own safety, they can't endure it like this! In this case, I did not immediately accede to their request except to sympathize with them, because I was still waiting for a message at the moment.
"Qing Gong ...... At all costs...... At all costs...... Please send troops......" Takaya Yoshiei was still crying and pleading, his voice had become hoarse from just now. It should be said that he really has no talent, and he just said these two sentences over and over again. But it's important to say that he's really comedic all over his body, and it's said that the best clowns never think of themselves as clowns. "The Yamana clan is cruel and unjust, and we don't share the sky with him! I implore the Qing clan to take action, and we will not hesitate to destroy our family to relieve our difficulties......"
"Takaya-sama is serious! Some things ...... "I hurriedly stopped him from continuing to confess, so that they could not embarrass themselves under the fence." I will still have a lot of use for them in the future, and I can't leave me unreasonable feelings, and besides, this is not conducive to the image of the "sage" that I have just established. Now I want them to understand how much "pressure" I am under; I will let them know how "righteous" I am. Finally, I will give them a taste of my "power". "Although I am the guardian of Tango, I am still a retainer of the Oda family after all! Now the right general is bent on a decisive battle with Asai and Asakura, and I really ...... Ay~~~! I let out a long sigh.
"Qing Gong ......" Takaya Yoshiei's mouth opened, and he seemed to be very unwilling, but he really didn't have the courage to ask Oda Nobunaga for his life.
"Speaking of which, Inatomi-sama's death is also because of me, have all the things behind him been arranged?" I asked with a look of guilt.
"Returning to the Qing family, Daofu is a family...... It's gone! Tears flowed from Takaya's swollen eyes.
"Heir?! How could this be! I was shocked, and I definitely couldn't accept this reality.
"Yes! Younao is an only son......" Yoshiei Takaya said as he wiped his tears. "And the Inatomi family has no direct descendants, and now there are only the wife and a daughter of Lord Inatomi Naohide in the family!"
"A daughter? How old is it? I asked with concern.
"I'm thirteen years old, and I haven't decided to marry yet!"
"You, that's you!" I pointed to the third person on the left behind Yoshiei Takaya, who was young but carved out of the same mold as Yoshiei Takaya. He was chosen because he was the right age and looked the stupidest, in other words, he looked the most like a pig. “…… What is your name? ”
"Oh......" The man looked at me in fear, then at Takaya Yoshiei, and shivered for a while, but did not dare to speak.
"This is my third son!" Seeing this situation, Takaya Liangrong had no choice but to answer for him, and then said to him: "Hurry up and bow to the Qing Clan!" ”
"No need!" I waved my hand to stop him from kowtowing, and honestly there was nothing to be proud of in bringing such a person to their knees. "You are now married to the daughter of Lord Inatomi, and change your name to Yoshiro Inatomi to inherit the Inatomi family as an adopted son, I think I will do it to this master!"
"The Qing family is the reborn parents of my Gaowu and Daofu families, and their kindness is like the sun, moon and river......" Gaowu father and son 5 people lay on the ground and kowtowed, and my legs felt the floor tremble slightly.
"Alright, alright! It doesn't have to be like this...... "I finally stopped their worship from the depths of my soul. "Even so, I still feel sorry for Inatomi-sama, and I recognize that His Highness Marai Isshiki's death was also due to my suggestion! Although my Zhuxing Qing clan has not been in Danhou for a long time, I already owe you a lot......"
"The Qing clan must not have this thought in his heart!" Takaya's exclamation almost made people think that he had seen a ghost in the daytime. "Although the Qing clan has first taken charge of Danhou, he has already been a hundred generations of grass and trees! All of them look up to Your Highness like the sun and the moon, revere them like parents, and look forward to living under your brilliance! The suffering of His Royal Highness Isshiki and Lord Inatomi is due to the brutality and cunning of the Yamana clan, what does this have to do with the Qing clan? Please take care, the thousands of people of Tango are still counting on you! ”
"Takaya-sama's words really make me ashamed...... "My face is indeed a little red, which makes Takaya and others feel that I am too "harsh" on myself. "Why don't you do it! As long as Oda Right General does not object to this matter in reply, then even if all the reinforcements are withdrawn, I will conquer the Tajima Mountain master alone! Do you think that's okay? ”
"Qing Clan! ......" This time, even the people behind the high house couldn't stop kowtowing, and no matter how I tried to stop them, I couldn't stop them.
"It's coming! Here it comes! ......" Ikeda shouted while waving a piece of paper, and ran in from outside, and everyone's eyes were focused on him at once. "The lord, the lord ordered...... "I don't know how far he ran, but he was a little out of breath." …… Crusade...... Defeat Yamana...... No win...... There is no forgiveness for killing Yamana's father and son! He finally got out of breath.
"In that case, I won't keep you!" I looked back and smiled. “…… I will attack Tajima in 3 days, so you can go with you if you wish. If you don't want to go, I'm not strong, and if you're willing to send troops, I'll be responsible for military expenses, food and grass! In addition, all the gains will go to their respective ......"
***************************************************
After coming out of the hall, I dismissed all my attendants and walked alone to the top floor of the castle tower. The plan has actually been underway for a long time, and now it's just a matter of stepping up! The nobles were excitedly going back to their respective preparations, while my retainers were putting the finishing touches on their work, and Ikeda was excited about being able to postpone his return to Gibu.
At a bend in the hallway, I bumped into Kanzo Kato and Rainbow Akira, who were waiting with a bow, and waved their hands to follow them.
"Who is it that made a move against the Yamana clan this time?" When I came to the verandah on the top floor of the castle tower, I asked as I looked out at the mountains in the distance.
"It's Ah Xing of the Hongqi Reserve......" Kato Duanzo replied respectfully. A young man with a lot of potential! ”
"You're a good trainer, this mission is done beautifully!" I nodded in satisfaction.
"Thank you for your compliment, Ah Xing is my youngest junior sister!" Hongqi Jinghe said respectfully: "It is also the lord Hong Fu Qitian, and the bloody brave man of the Yamana clan is confused under a few eyes!" ”
"You go back for me and tell her: she is the first flag book to be promoted after the official establishment of the 'Stars Red Heart Society'!"
