Uesugi Kenmasa had already caught a glimpse of a tall young man walking slowly, thinking that it was a certain backward relative of the Nagao family, but he didn't expect it to be a generation of famous generals Yoshiyoshi Kira who was vigorously praised by the shogunate, so he hurriedly bowed down respectfully: "The Kanto Governor and the military department junior assistant Uesugi Kenmasa has seen the Wuwei Palace!" I wish the Gongfang Palace a prosperous family, and the Wuwei Palace has a long martial luck! ”

Seeing that Uesugi Kenmasa was so good at talking, Kira Yoshitoki's face immediately turned cloudy and clear, and he said with a smile: "Okay! Two of you, please! The Uesugi clan's deference to my shogunate, the family association will mention it to the Gongkata Palace. ”

"Thank you Wuwei Palace!" Regardless of family personality, origin, or official rank, the Uesugi family is not qualified to pose in front of the Kira family, so they have to honestly visit the Ashikaga family's Imperial Gate.

The main family of the Uesugi clan is now the Kanto Gongkata family that is now shrunk in the Shimokogawa Imperial Palace, since the Eternal Enjoyment Rebellion more than 100 years ago between the master and servant fell out, in the Eternal Enjoyment Rebellion, the Kanto Governor Uesugi Ken was ordered to kill the Kanto Okikaga Shori Clan, and the young son of the Ashikaga Mori Clan killed Uesugi Kentada, and the two families have since turned against each other.

Although it was later eased by Uesugi Kaisada's efforts to bridge the situation, the two sides were no longer in a master-slave relationship, and during the night battle of Kawagoe, Uesugi Kenmasa and Ashikaga Haruhi formed a military force similar to the nature of the alliance, and the commander of the coalition was Uesugi Kenmasa rather than Ashikaga Haruji, which shows how much the relationship between the two sides is separated, and the imbalance in the political status of the two countries is also the root cause of repeated turmoil in the Kanto region over the past 150 years.

Uesugi Kenmasa's level of education is very high, and as one of the leading cultural people in the Kanto region, his attainments in poetry and tea ceremony are no less than those of Sakai Town, and his boring jokes can be told in a fun way, not boring at all. Let the long-tailed Jinghu also feel that this Kanto leader is really not suitable to be a martial artist in troubled times. If you were born a few decades earlier, you would be a peace leader, you would definitely be very good.

Of course, his level is second to none in Kanto. There is still a gap between him and Kira Yoshi, who has been at the top level of Kyoto all year round, at least he doesn't know what ancient and modern teachings are, and he himself and Hosokawa Fujitaka have been taught ancient and modern, and he has no problem with the attainments of waka to explode.

Kira Yoshitoki's face had already been practiced, and he didn't have the slightest emotional fluctuation when he talked about what happened to the Furukawa family, and sighed with pity: "The Kanto family has also heard a little about it, and the Furukawa family finally got together with the Hojo family after this disaster, it's a pity!" ”

Not to mention that no one knew that Murayu was stolen by him. Even if he is discovered, he will never admit that he did it, and the inside story of the Kanto turmoil will naturally be drowned forever in the tide of history, and he deliberately mentions this stubble because he doesn't want this cultural person to keep talking about some outdated topics in Kyoto.

Uesugi Kenmasa was too busy to have fun and ignore government affairs, but it didn't mean that he didn't have political intelligence, and said knowingly: "I didn't expect that the Furukawa Gongfang would be a thief and marry the daughter of the Hojo family as the main house, and the samurai family in Kanto were very disappointed and dissatisfied with the unwisdom of His Royal Highness......"

"Hmm!" Kira Yoshitoki made a slightly calming gesture to Nagao Jinghu, and pretended to think: "So, who is the Hojo clan who is this disaster in Kanto?" Could it be that the remnants of the Hojo clan of the Kamakura shogunate have not been successful? That's not right! The family remembers that it is very clearly written in the "Taihei Ji" that Nitta Yoshisada fought to exterminate the Hojo clan...... So how did this Hojo clan come about? ”

"Speaking of this, the Hojo clan is very clear. His family had nothing to do with the Hojo clan more than 40 years ago. The Hojo clan was called the Hojo clan in order to gain the title of the samurai who ruled the Kanto region! But this clan was originally an outsider, and the little trick of changing the name was not recognized by the Kanto samurai, but more samurai families were disgusted by the style of the Hojo clan after this! "Speaking of the old things in Kanto, you can't get around the Uesugi family, the head snake, of course, Uesugi Kenmasa knows the history of the Hojo clan, and it is natural to hack this mortal enemy.

"This Hojo clan was originally a member of the Ise clan of the shogunate deacon, and he was born in the Ise clan, and the first governor of the family was named Ise Nagashi and entered the way of Sakumoan Munerui, and with the support of his nephew Imagawa clan, he quickly gained a foothold in Izu......"

Hojo Sakumo, formerly known as Ise Morito, also known as Ise Naga and Ise Shigeru, served as the shogunate's Shinjigo with the help of the clan Ise Sadamune in his early years, and was mainly responsible for the shogunate's internal and external affairs of the daimyo who guarded each daimyo, that is, the meaning of a diplomat.

At the time of the outbreak of the Onin War, the Ise clan, which was subordinate to the Eastern Army, obeyed the order of Hosokawa Katsumoto, the commander of the Eastern Army, and asked Kitagawa Den, the sister of Ise in his prime, to marry Imagawa Yoshitada, a general who also belonged to the Eastern Army system, in order to strengthen the cohesion within the Eastern Army system.

The six-year-old Imagawa clan faced the challenge of his cousin Oga Fan Mitsu, and the position of the family governor was in jeopardy, at this time, Hosokawa Masamoto, who had just succeeded to the throne, immediately ordered Isemori to go down to Suruga to eliminate the signs of possible civil strife in the Imagawa family.

There is also a reason why Hosokawa Masagen cares so much about the Imagawa clan, the Suruga Imagawa clan has always been the first line of defense to defend the Kanto invasion of Gyeonggi, and the Kanto Princes have had the ambition to seize the post of shogun, which has long been known to everyone in Sima Zhao's heart, and Hosokawa Masamoto, as the actual ruler of the shogunate, naturally attaches great importance to the stability of this line of defense.

Soon the Imagawa family's civil strife disappeared, and it was the first time that Ise had stepped onto the political stage, and it also left a deep impression on Hosokawa Masamoto, laying the foundation for his subsequent rise.

During the civilization period after the end of the Onin War, the minister's secretary Masakin-cho Sanjo Koji was very active as a close associate of the ninth shogunate Ashikaga Yoshisho, and his main room was the younger sister of the shogunate deacon Ise Sadachi, and his son Masakin-cho Sanjo Nobomi served as a close minister of the eleventh shogun Ashikaga Yoshisumi after the Meijin coup.

The main room of this Shokin-cho Sanjo Shinozo is the eldest daughter born to Imagawa Yoshitada and Kitagawa Den, and is called Kitagaden, that is, the niece of Ise's heyday.

After returning to Beijing after settling the internal dispute in Imagawa, Ise was in his prime, and the shogunate married the daughter of Ogasawara Masakiyo, who was the mother of the Hojo clan, Rokuro, the son of Ogasawara Masatsu, and his younger brother Ogasawara Motosu, who also went down to Kanto and became the consolidated minister of the Later Hojo clan.

Ise then returned to the shogunate as Shin Jizhong, and married his niece, Kitamiden, at the time of Shokincho Sanjo Minozo. Suddenly resigned from the shogunate Shinji and went down to Izu. Because he was ordered by Masato Hosokawa. He was ordered to disrupt the peaceful and peaceful Kanto under the "Metropolitan Harmony".

Hosokawa Masamoto did this not because he had a hole in his head, or because he gave up treatment or anything, but because the special system of the Kanto Shogunate formed a set of "Kanto Shogunate" independent of the Muromachi Shogunate, with independent military command, dispute litigation and punishment, land adjudication, disposition, land addition, blocking, reduction, change and other exclusive powers of the shogunate.

After the outbreak of the Onin War, the Kanto region also experienced a series of baptisms of the Eternal Enjoyment Rebellion, the Enjoyment Rebellion, and the Changxiang Rebellion, and the samurai of the Kanto region gradually deviated from the path of unity under the banner of the Kanto Princesses to the internal factional strife for power, which was also the strategy that Ashikaga Yoshimasa and Hosokawa Katsumoto had planned for a long time. Including the setting of Ashikaga Masachi of Horikoshi is also the meaning of this.

Based on the lack of appeal of the Horikoshi public side and the obstruction of the Kanto plan, Hosokawa Masamoto chose to use the special influence of the Imagawa clan in the heyday of Ise on the basis of his father's strategy, so that he could break into Izu Province and gradually infiltrate the interior of the Kanto region.

The plan was executed very well, and Ise was able to gain a firm foothold in Izu along the way. And coerced Sagami's Miura Michi-inch to gradually erode the territory of the Ogiya Uesugi family, and the result was at this time. The big backstage Hosokawa Masamoto hung up and disrupted the overall layout at once, and the three adopted sons made a lot of trouble in order to fight for the inheritance, and they didn't have time to manage a small chess piece in Kanto, and the trouble was not solved until the Funakayama Battle was introduced into the Ouchi Army.

So our little chess piece, when Ise was in his prime, he transformed into a child who no one cared about, and he could only rely on the support of his nephew Imagawa clan to lay a little bit of Sagami to stabilize the basic plate of the later Hojo family, and then Ise was a monk and entered the Taoist called Sakumoan Sorui, and after his death, his sister-in-law Hojo clan Tsunade faced the suspicion of the Kanto people, and decided to change the Miao character to Hojo, and narrowed the relationship with the local samurai of Kanto, so there was the Go-Hojo clan.

"A clan of the Ise clan? Wasn't that Ise Sadataka killed by Miyoshi Chokei? His kinship? No wonder the shogunate has always turned a blind eye to the expansion of the Hojo family in the Kanto region, it turns out that there is a clan in the shogunate to support him! Kira Yoshitoki sneered, and there was one more sentence he didn't say, the Sanjo family of Masamicho often contacted the Hojo family, and it was also the help of the Hojo family in the imperial court, this abacus snapped, no wonder the Hojo family could rise so quickly.

"Yes! We and the Kanto samurai are helpless against the Hojo family, the shogunate does not agree to issue a crusade order, and the imperial court does not agree to refer to the Hojo clan as an enemy of the court, so we can only be bullied! Woo woo...... "Uesugi Kenmasa began to cry before he could say a few words, and a big man was crying with a face, which was really pitiful and infuriating.

"The head of my family is the dignified Kanto governor, but the family who was bullied by the Hojo family is difficult to return, and His Royal Highness Ryuwakamaru was killed by the brutal Hojo clan Yasu! He's only eleven years old! "The long tail is also unhappy for the master's family, just like encountering a poor tenant who is oppressed by the landlord's old wealth, and his expression is more miserable and miserable.

"Well, it's really a heinous crime, and it can't be tolerated......" Kira Yoshitoki also followed by a sentence and disappeared.

"Doesn't that seem right? Shouldn't they show their indignation or stand up for us? Why is there no response for half a day? The long-tailed chief was a little flustered, and his father-in-law cried as agreed, according to the plan, the long-tailed Jinghu would definitely say something, but the situation in front of him was that the long-tailed Jinghu showed anger but did not make the slightest action.

"The two of you are tired from running around for a few days, so please go to the annex to rest first!" Kira clapped his hands and summoned a few close attendants to arrange accommodation for the two of them.

Seeing the two of them leave reluctantly, Nagao Jinghu was very dissatisfied, and when he saw Kira Yoshishi, he still looked disapproving, so he snorted coldly and said, "Why don't you let my family speak?" It won't be righteousness, what kind of calculations will you make? This family can make it clear that no matter what kind of plan is made in righteousness, this Hojo clan and I, Jinghu, will definitely not let go, and there is no room for negotiation in this matter! ”

"I very much agree with my brother's proposal!" Kira Yoshitoki took out his iconic bat fan to cover half of his face, and said with a smile: "This Hojo family must fight, and for the sake of the samurai family, we can't let go of the Hojo family, but it's not now and it can't be now." ”

"Why can't it be now?" The long-tailed Jinghu is angry and wide-eyed, like a crouching tiger lying in the big room, the majestic tiger is imposing, and there is a big meaning that you don't want to leave today if you don't make it clear. (To be continued......)
