Just when Masara, Kansuke Yamamoto, Kakukuma Ishimune and others had already begun to act, and Masarashi was rushing to Chikuzen Province to prepare to take the opportunity to annex the Akizuki family and the Aso family, a good show was also being staged in the Kao Castle of the Aso family in Enoga County, Chikuzen Province.

Things have to start this morning, after getting the exact news that all the Aso family governors and main retainers in Aso Town were killed, the Aso family branch governor Aso Motoshige who was still in Yamaga Castle immediately mobilized the troops in the territory overnight last night, and then directly waved his army to the castle of the clan this morning.

After arriving at Huawei City, he stationed more than 200 troops outside the city, and then he entered the city with more than 30 people, and then issued an order to everyone in the city to hold a meeting of the governor in the Huawei City Hall.

Aso's series of actions can really be said to be the king of the monkey without a tiger in the mountains. Now fools know that he took advantage of the fact that the main forces of the Zong family's family governor, important ministers, and the sect family were damaged, and the family governor's son-in-law was young and was being a hostage in the Luo family, and took the opportunity to force the palace in an attempt to seize the position of the family governor.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, all the retainers of the Aso family came to the council hall one after another.

Yoshioka Nagamasa, who was the hostage of the Luo family left in Hanao Castle, also came to the council hall accompanied by Sagara Takeren and Aokei Takashi, who were guests at the Aso house.

Sagara Takeren and Qingjing Takashi had long since concluded that Tao Longfang would rebel, so they were ready to flee at any time, and after learning that Tao Longfang really raised troops to rebel in Ruoshan Castle, the two fled to Aso's house in Chikuzen Province without thinking about it.

Originally, they still hoped that Tao Longfang's rebellion would be extinguished, but in the end, they waited for the news of Ouchi Yoshitaka being killed in Hanao Castle. Suddenly made the two of them completely decadent. The two of them were previously representatives of the "Bunji faction" of the Ouchi family. It is definitely a sworn enemy with Tao Longfang. Now they are not only worried about their own safety. At the same time, they are also worried about their families and clansmen in the territories of Zhou Fang and Nagato respectively.

At this time, Yoshioka Nagamasa, the envoy of the Luo family, who had been wooing the two of them many times, appeared in front of them again, and after Yoshioka Nagazen was about to go out to the eastern part of the country, and made a promise to protect the safety of the two and rescue the families and clansmen of the two people back to the Luo family's territory if allowed, the two finally surrendered to the Luo family. Immediately, the two acted as lobbyists, and finally persuaded the Aso family on the way out of the Luo family's clan. This is the tripartite covenant between the Luo family, the Akizuki family, and the Aso family.

And the last time Masarashi led a large army to the west bank of the Enga River, Sagara Takeren and Aokei Takashi were the third group of hostages in addition to the Akizuki family and the Aso family. This time, in addition to serving as witnesses to the hostage exchange of the three alliances. I also want to take the opportunity to meet with Zhengliang.

For the son-in-law of Masahiro, Sagara Takeren has always had a complicated mood. Although I was very optimistic about this son-in-law before, it was also out of the political needs of the Ouchi family. But now, Yoshitaka Ouchi, the lord he is most optimistic about, has been killed, and like a lost dog, he still has to take refuge under the protection of his son-in-law. It's strange that his mood isn't complicated.

Of course, Masarashi sees these things as much simpler, not to mention the relationship between Sagara Takeren is his wife's father, just by virtue of Sagara Takeren's influence in the Ouchi family, the Luo family will also reduce a lot of resistance in the governance of the newly occupied Ouchi family's territory. Therefore, Sagara Takeren must be sheltered. At that meeting, Masaro once again reaffirmed Yoshioka's previous commitment to them. This made Sagara Takeren and Qingjing Takashi, and the uneasy mood of the two finally settled down completely.

Subsequently, he attacked the country of Fengzen at the Luo family. And when he was about to attack the territory of the Nagano family, Masarashi immediately invited Sagara Taketo. The latter also simply took the risk to enter Nagano Castle and persuaded the Nagano family to surrender to the struggling Nagano family, so that the Luo family could successfully take the Nagano family's territory.

After helping Masahiro, Sagara Takeren also consciously returned to the Aso family and continued to serve as an intermediary (in fact, it is also equivalent to the hostage of the alliance between the Luo family and the Aso family) in order to stabilize the Aso family.

Today, when he learned that something had happened in the Aso family, Sagara Takeren privately exchanged their opinions with Yoshioka Nagamasa, the envoy of the Luo family, and the two agreed that whether it was from the perspective of orthodoxy or from the interests of the Luo family, it was naturally better to support Aso's sister-in-law to inherit the position of the governor of the Aso family. It's just that the Aso Motoshige that was suddenly killed today is also not a good person, and the guards of less than 100 people in Huawei City at this time can't resist the military strength of more than 200 people in Aso Motoshige.

So, under such circumstances, the crowd walked into the council hall. At this time, all the retainers of the Aso family who were still in Huawei City were basically present, but these people were just some small retainers in the family, and those who could speak followed Aso Takashi into Yuxu Mountain and were buried in the fire this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the so-called country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the purpose of summoning you here today is naturally to determine the matter of the family governor." Aso spoke arrogantly in the council hall.

After Aso finished speaking, he looked at the people in the council hall with sharp eyes, as if he was about to eat everyone. And the retainers of the Aso family naturally remained silent at this time.

"Hehe, it's ridiculous, why does the governor of this family need to confirm it? Even if the head of the family is not here at this time, hasn't the head of the family already determined the heir? At this moment, a voice came from behind Yoshioka Nagasu. Yoshioka Nagazen immediately looked back and found that this person was a domestic servant specially assigned by Masarashi to Yoshioka Nagazen as a guide back to Aso's house. It is said that this person was originally Aso's servant.

"Who is Your Excellency, and why haven't you seen you at home before?" Aso Motoshige saw that this domestic servant stood up from behind the envoy of the Luo family, and his eyes couldn't help but froze, so he immediately asked.

"I am a servant of Miss Xiji of my family, and I have returned home at the order of Miss to support Miss's nephew to inherit the position of Governor." The young servant immediately said.

"Bold, unworthy things. This is where you speak? The servant had just finished speaking. Several retainers of the Aso clan who were sitting near Aso Motoshige immediately scolded angrily. With the angry scolding of these people. More and more retainers of the Aso family joined the scolding formation.

Seeing such a situation, Aso couldn't help but secretly become proud. However, Yoshioka Nagazen and Sagara Takeren secretly glanced at each other, and from each other's eyes, they both interpreted a bad look. They didn't expect that Aso Motoshige would win over more than half of the Aso retainers in such a short period of time, and now there are only a few retainers who have not expressed their stance and remain silent. And these silent retainers still behave like this because they are relatives of the clan.

Of course, in fact, Yoshioka Nagamassu and Sagara Takeren were wrong. These Aso retainers were not bought by Aso, but out of a choice of family interests. After all, the age of the sister-in-law left by the family governor Takashi Aso is too young. If he is allowed to inherit the family governor, he will not be able to suppress everyone in the family, and he may be taken advantage of by the powerful Luo family. In this case, it would be more appropriate for them to choose Aso Motoshige, who is in his twenties, as the new head of the family.

"Hehe, everyone, at this time, we represent the position of my young lady, are you questioning my young lady?" In the face of the surging scolding, the young servant looked calm, and even asked with a smile.

"Humph! When did the wife of the family allow her to interfere in the housework? A retainer immediately questioned.

"The young lady of this family has been accepted as a side room by the political good father, and to question my young lady is to question the political good father. Could it be that this lord is preparing to provoke Masahiro? In a hurry, the servant simply raised the banner of Zhengliang. Anyway, since the young lady of the family lived in Masahiro's backyard. He regarded the fact that his young lady was accepted as a wife and concubine by Zhengliang. So now that Aso Nozomi is said to be Masayo's side room, he doesn't blush at all.

"Yes, the lord of the family also supports Aso Takashi's son-in-law to inherit the position of family governor, is your Excellency provoking the lord of the family, so as to provoke a big war between the two families?" Yoshioka Nagamasa, who was on the side, heard this servant of Nozomi Aso say this, and knew that it was time for him to appear at this time, so he immediately stood up, and pointed at the retainer of Aso who had just questioned the young servant with an angry face. Naturally, he didn't dare to admit and discuss the matter of the young servant's wife's room, so he only expressed his support for Aso's sister-in-law.

"I have been helped by Lord Aso Takami several times, and now in the temporary absence of Lord Aso, I also support Lord Aso's son-in-law to inherit the position of family governor." Sagara Takeren on the side also said.

"This?" Seeing this situation, many of the Aso retainers who had been arrogant immediately froze, especially the retainer who had just questioned the young servant, was even more blushing at this time. He really didn't have the courage to confront the Luo family, and now that he was questioned by the young servant, he became timid. Compared with the withering of supporting the arrogance of Aso's retainers, the small number of retainers who were originally relatives of Aso Takashi regained their courage and stood up one after another to express their support for Aso's son-in-law to inherit the position of family governor.

"Hehe, when will the family affairs of this family be decided by other families?" Just when the atmosphere in the council hall began to tilt towards Aso's sister-in-law, Aso had to stand up and speak.

"What do you mean by that?" Seeing that Aso Motoshige was so rude, Yoshioka Nagazen immediately asked.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is a family affair of our family, please avoid it first. Come, invite all the guests out of the city. In the face of Yoshioka Nagamasa's questioning, Aso Motoshige deliberately avoided the topic of whether Yoshioka Nagazen and others were qualified to participate in the decision-making of the new governor of the Aso family, and directly issued a send-off order. Looking at this situation, Aso Yuan is determined to offend the Luo family and get the position of the governor of the Aso family.

With Aso's order, a group of Aso's samurai walked into the outside of the council hall, preparing to forcibly "invite" Yoshioka Nagazen and others out of the council hall.

"You dare?" At this time, the young servant shouted at the samurai, and then pulled out the sword at his waist. Seeing this, Yoshioka Nagazen and others also drew their swords one after another and confronted the samurai of the Aso family. The confrontation between the two teams of people suddenly made everyone in the council hall exclaim, and there was chaos in it for a while.

"Ahh Just when everyone in the council hall was in chaos, several screams came from the courtyard outside the council hall, and the sudden screams made everyone in the council hall involuntarily quiet.

"Stampede ......" was followed by a burst of footsteps, and a large group of strange soldiers with weapons instantly poured into the council hall, and quickly surrounded everyone. When everyone was shocked, Yoshioka Nagazen burst into joy. Because he found that these soldiers were wearing the unique Luo armor of the Luo family, and it was also the unique Luo armor of the Luo family, which was inseparable from Zhengliang. Their appearance almost indicates that the Lord is about to appear.

Sure enough, with the sound of orderly footsteps of "stepping, stepping, stepping", a young man wearing Luo's armor, wearing a Nanban helmet, and holding a sword slowly walked into the council hall. This person is the Luo family's family governor Luo Zhengliang. After discussing with Kansuke Yamamoto and Kakukuma Ishimune, he took the opportunity to annex the Aso family and the Akizuki family, and then immediately made defensive arrangements for the Luo family's newly occupied territory in the Bunzen Province and Nagato Province, and finally led the army of more than 1,000 people to Hanao Castle, the eastern gateway of Chikuzen Province, which happened to meet today's good scene.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you break into your family's council? Aso didn't know what was crazy at this time, and he actually shouted angrily at Masahiro.

Masarashi glared at Aso Motoshige, and then walked in front of Aso Motoshige step by step. Seeing this, several retainers around Aso were ready to step forward to stop them, but they were directly forced by the surrounding Luo family cloaks to stay in place and did not dare to move.

"Cut off!"

Just when Masara was about to walk in front of Aso Motoshige, Masara suddenly raised the ghost cut in his hand, and with a silent recite in his heart, he directly used the third-order sword secret technique "Cut Off" to Aso Motoshige. With the flickering of Zhengliang's figure, a head flew up directly, and fell on the floor of the council hall with a "bang". This head is naturally the head of Aso Yuanzhong, who can't react.

Asomoto's heavy body, which had lost his head, slowly fell to the floor, and then kept spraying blood, forming a small pool of blood around it. The expression of the head of Aso Motoshige, who was not far away, still maintained a stunned expression at this time. No matter how he thought about it, he didn't expect that Masato would do it directly without even saying a word, and send him to Jizo Bodhisattva to report with a knife.
