And just as Roche pondered the purpose of Ashikaga Yoshiteru's apparent intention to arrange a meeting, his attendants were also excited to be invited to the reception room.
"How does it feel?" Kiyora Doi asked often at the Eli Kouxin beside him, and at this time, Kiyora Doi's face was covered with a flush of excitement.
"It's okay!" Jiang Li often touched his chin and replied, "Oh, it's just a little messy, it should be well organized!" ”
"You're too disrespectful, aren't you?" Kiyora Doi snorted dissatisfiedly, "This is the general's reception room!" Although my family is a famous samurai family for generations, even my grandfather and my grandfather's grandfather would never have imagined that their descendants would one day be in the same house as the shogun. Not to mention that you, a guy from a civilian background, aren't you the glory of your dreams? ”
"Is that so?" Jiang Li asked with some confusion.
"That's it!" At this time, Marume Nagahui, who had been listening beside Jiangli Kouxintsune and Doi Kiyora, interrupted the conversation between the two of them, "Now that the lord of this family is famous all over the world, the power of the Luo family cannot stop here!" As long as we follow behind the lord, then we will surely attain greater glory. ”
"Well, that's good!" This time, not only Eri Nobutsune and Kiyoshi Doi agreed, but even Yoshimi Kohata and Yoshitoyo Nijo, who had been watching everyone discuss with disdain on the sidelines, also agreed.
"Be quiet." And at this time, Luo Huiliang, who came back to his senses, also spoke, "Everyone. Whatever you hear later. Without my consent. We must not leak a word I heard here today to anyone outside of this place, otherwise it will be directly handed over to the Intelligence Pavilion of this family for disposal. ”
"Huh?" Everyone who was still excited, after hearing Luo Huiliang's words, it was like being poured cold water on a hot pot, and they instantly calmed down. Obviously, from the meaning of the young master Luo Shihuiliang's words, it can be known that this meeting seems to be a secret, and he accidentally learned an important secret of the family. This is not a good thing, especially after thinking of the ten terrifying tortures in the intelligence cabinet at home, it made everyone sweat coldly, and it was better not to come to this audience with them.
"The General has arrived!" Just when everyone regretted it, Akechi Mitsuhide, who had been waiting outside the reception room, came in to preach.
As soon as they heard that it was the shogun who had arrived, everyone in the room quickly came to their senses, hurriedly returned to their predetermined positions, and bowed down solemnly to wait for the guest of honor.
Soon, it will be led by the Kikutei sunny season. Later, Ashikaga Yoshiki walked in slowly, followed by Hosokawa Fujitaka, Kyogoku Takayoshi and several others.
Among these ministers. Including Kyogoku Takayoshi, who had accompanied Luo Huiliang to meet him before, at this time they were all dressed in bright and gorgeous court clothes, a high-raised gauze black hat, a face covered with white powder and blackened teeth. Even Ashikaga Yoshiteru changed into a formal court dress at this time.
At this time, the position of this person in the reception room was that Roche Teruarai was in the first seat on the left hand, while Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Kikutei Haruki sat side by side on the main seat.
"Your Highness Teira, please take a seat!" Ashikaga Yoshiki made a gesture of invitation to Roche Huiliang, and then said to everyone in the reception room: "Everyone is about to be a meritorious man of the Jing Rebellion, don't be restrained, please take a seat!" ”
After hearing Ashikaga Yoshiteru's words "about to be a meritorious man of the Yasushi Rebellion", Roshi Terura instantly confirmed his previous guess, Ashikaga Yoshiteru really agreed to his father Masahiro's invitation, and told these people who came in at this time the news of Shangluo, and it is even possible to directly circulate his father Masaara's letter to these people from the Ashikaga family.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru's actions were intended not only to encourage his retainers, but also to publicize them within the confines of these people in the reception room, so as to establish the fact that his dead father was about to go to Luo. From Ashikaga Yoshiteru's point of view, this is indeed understandable.
But Roche Terura still thinks that Ashikaga Yoshiki is playing with fire, in his opinion, Ashikaga Yoshiki does this to coerce his father to have to go to Luo, isn't he afraid of angering his father Masayo because of this?
In addition, will Ashikaga Yoshiteru be able to fully ensure that the retainers of the Ashikaga family in the reception room at this time are loyal? Once someone is bribed by the Miyoshi family and leaks the news of today's meeting to the Miyoshi family, then Ashikaga Yoshiteru will suffer miserable treatment and even be expelled again.
So in comparison, in fact, the biggest risk that needs to be taken is still Ashikaga Yoshiteru's side, as for the Luo family's side, the worst case is that the news that the Luo family is about to go to Luo was leaked out in advance, which slightly affected some of the arrangements, but on the whole, it could not affect the progress of the Luo family.
Of course, although he judged so in his heart, since Ashikaga Yoshiteru had already done this, Roshi Teruhiro didn't bother to say anything more, so he led the people of the Luo family to thank Ashikaga Yoshiteru and returned to their seats.
"Whether the shogunate can be restored this time depends on your subsequent loyalty!" Ashikaga Yoshiki looked around at the people of the Luo family and then said solemnly.
In fact, Ashikaga Yoshiki's words made everyone in the Luo family (except for Luo Hui Liang) who didn't know the situation at this time feel inexplicable, but after recalling the previous young master Luo Hui Liang, they all simply pretended to listen carefully, and then waited for the young master Luo Hui Liang to deal with them one by one. As for what is involved in this, I guess they will know as they continue to listen.
And Luo Shi Huiliang immediately bowed and responded at this time: "General Xie's love, this family will definitely go all out!" ”
Next, Kikutei Qingji also said some words of expectation, gratitude, and praise on behalf of the emperor and the imperial court, and Luo Shihuiliang thanked him as usual and said that he would do his best.
"This time, Masahiro Gong will work tirelessly, not avoid difficulties and dangers, and resolutely prepare to lead troops to sweep away the rebels and help the shogunate. Honesty is an example of heroes and heroes in the world! The first person in the world to be brave and brave! "After the Kikutei sunny season. Ashikaga Yoshiteru's No. 1 think tank, Hosokawa Fujitaka, also thanked Roche Terura.
Hosokawa-sama lifted up. In the next place for the father, he said that he really didn't dare to be a Ah! Roche Huiliang replied.
"Fujitaka is right!" Ashikaga Yoshiteru was also excited and grateful at this time, "Since the decline of the shogunate, my father and I have suffered many times and have been displaced from place to place, although we have experienced many hardships, but the desire to revive the Muromachi shogunate has been far away, and I don't know how many people dare not move forward for fear of the tyranny of the traitorous party. At this moment of crisis, Zhengliang Gong is about to be able to stand up and take the lead in advocating volunteers! This will enable the world to return to the right path. The shogunate will also be restored! If he succeeds in Shangluo this time, Masahiro will definitely be the father of my Ashikaga Yoshiteru's rebirth! ”
"Your Excellency Shogun, don't say such a thing!" Luo Shi Huiliang immediately said, "My father once said that he was just a vulgar man in the mountains, and the general did not abandon his heavy responsibility, and he should do his best to serve the shogunate, and he did not give up!" What he did was just doing the duty of a courtier, and he really couldn't afford to be a general's such a false praise! ”
"Zhengliang is too humble!" After hearing this, Ashikaga Yoshiteru continued to Luo Shi, "If Masayo can lead troops into Beijing to revitalize the shogunate this time, he will definitely overcome obstacles and hardships along the way, and his generals will definitely fight bloodily!" It's going to be a great achievement. How can a good man just laugh it off? ”
"Your Excellency the General said so, then I will be ashamed to take it for my father!" Luo Huiliang had no choice but to say. Ashikaga Yoshiteru's statement is clever. Because if he continues to be humble, it will be as if his father Masahiro and the Luo family's upcoming Shangluo righteous deeds have been done in vain. However, what he has always found strange is that the Luo family has not succeeded in Shangluo now? But why do Ashikaga Yoshiteru and others seem to have praised the Luo family's Shangluo as if they were successful?
"His Royal Highness Dazai Datong is really bold!" Hosokawa Fujitaka also said with relief at this time, and gave Ashikaga Yoshiki a look in time, "With the great talent of the high style and bright festival of the good government, the court and the shogunate will definitely rely on it more in the future!" I also hope that the good government can think of the common people in the world, and don't push it away! ”
"For the current righteousness of the world, my father is naturally indomitable!" Luo Huiliang immediately replied.
"Good! That's great! Ashikaga Yoshiki immediately nodded his head excitedly, "I'm relieved that Masahiro can have this attitude!" In that case......"
Ashikaga Yoshiteru straightened his face and said, "I want to appoint Masaroshi as the head of the princes, I don't know what His Highness Tegura wants?" ”
"Leader?!" In the reception room, everyone in the Luo family on the side of Luo Huiliang immediately exclaimed, and their faces showed irrepressible excitement.
It's no wonder that after they heard the topic of their lord's upcoming Shangluo, they were already excited in their hearts, and now they suddenly heard that their lord's lord was qualified for the position of leader, so they were naturally very happy.
You must know that the position of the leader has always been held by only the three branches of the Ashikaga family, Hosokawa, Hatakeyama and Spo, during the entire shogunate period, and the Uesugi family cannot be regarded as orthodox.
However, everyone in the Luo family in the reception room seemed excited, but Luo Huiliang said fiercely in his heart at this time, "Sure enough". Long before coming to Kyoto, his father Masara reminded him that he could not agree to any official position offered by the shogunate under any circumstances.
The reason for the refusal is actually very simple, take the position of "leader" given by Ashikaga Yoshiki as an example, once Tegura accepted it instead of his father Masara, then not only is this position now in name but also meaningless for the Luo family (after all, at this time, the power of the Luo family has not yet extended to the region, if his father Masara issued an order in the name of the leader, it is estimated that not many people in will obey, and afterwards his father Masara could not go out in time to punish these people, so as a result, On the contrary, it has reduced the prestige of his father Masashi and the Luo family), and when the Luo family goes to Luo in the future, it is inevitable that these forces will fully support the Luo family on the road to resist the Luo family (after all, no one wants to suddenly come from outside with a powerful daimyo to be their uncle).
Moreover, even if the Luo family was able to finally break through the obstruction of these forces this time, Shangluo succeeded, but because they had formed a relationship with these forces before. Then naturally, the Luo family fell into the chaotic vortex of many forces in the area near Kyoto. This is not good for the Luo family's plan to control the Kyoto area. On the contrary, if Shangluo can still maintain a certain good relationship with these forces after the success of Shangluo, it will be more beneficial to the Luo family, so naturally such an official position cannot be accepted.
But of course, the most important point is, if it is just a small position of steward, will his father be satisfied? This is obviously impossible, in fact, since that night when I heard my father Masayo say his true goal. Even Luo Huiliang was shocked at that time.
So Luo Shi Huiliang immediately excused himself sternly, "The General must not be like this, my father has no selfish intentions for the Shogunate this time, how can he ask the General to give such a favor?" Besides, there are many people in the world who are more capable than their fathers, and if their fathers are entrusted with important positions just because they are about to lead troops to Shangluo, I am afraid that this will cause misunderstanding among the people of the world, and it will also make those with ill intentions have the ambition to seize power by force, thus causing unnecessary trouble to the shogunate and the shogun! Please don't think about it, and take back your life! ”
"In that case, I don't know ...... position of the deputy general" Ashikaga Yoshiteru is obviously not giving up.
"There is no need to mention this matter again!" Luo Huiliang replied in a firm tone.
Thereupon. At the insistence of Luo Hui Liang, it was decided to grant Luo the official position of Zhengliang in advance. In order to express the shogunate's gratitude to the Luo family for the upcoming Luo Kuangfu Shogunate court, the matter can only be temporarily ended. Later, after the two sides discussed the details of the things that the Luo family and Shangluo needed to cooperate with, the meeting finally ended in the evening.
And Roche Teirashi and the others, under the leadership of Akechi Mitsuhide, who had been leading people to guard the reception room closely during the meeting, secretly left the shogun's mansion.
"The lord doesn't even accept such a high position as a leader and deputy general out of public interest, he is really a model for us!" After returning to Kyogoku Takayoshi's mansion, Yamanaka Yukimori was immediately moved and sighed.
"I don't know if you're really stupid or fake!" When Kiyora Doi next to him heard this, he looked up and down at Yamanaka Yumori before speaking.
"Is there something wrong?" Yamanaka Yukimori was a little vague by Kiyora Doi.
"Really! How could the lord accept a position that was subordinate to Ashikaga Yoshiteru? After saying this, Kiyora Doi left the mountain and Yukimori continued to be stunned there, and he walked away.
"Huh?" Even so, Yamanaka Yukimori is still vague.
"Alright, pack your bags now!" And at this time, Luo Huiliang also shouted.
"Huh?" This time, it was the exclamation of the entire staff.
"Young master, why is this?" Nijo Yoshitoyo immediately asked. The rest of the crowd immediately looked at Luo Che Huiliang tightly and waited for a reply.
"No need to ask, I'll set off overnight, rush to Sakai Town, and then return to Kyushu immediately." Luo Hui Liang said.
"Yes!" Since Luo Huiliang didn't say much, everyone also knew that it might be an important matter, so they didn't say much, and they all went to pack up.
"Ashikaga Yoshiki killed a small work arranged by the Miyoshi family with my hand today, and he also held a meeting with us later, which will definitely attract the attention of the Miyoshi family, for the sake of safety, it is better to leave early before the Miyoshi family reacts." Looking at the people who began to pack their bags, Luo Zhihui thought in his conscience.
"Hey! Originally, I was going to stay here for a while, and while continuing to establish a good relationship with the shogunate court, I was also waiting for the letter sent by my second brother from Yuanjiang Province, but it seems that I can only do it, second brother, are you okay in Yuanjiang Province? Looking at the bright moon that gradually appeared in the sky above the hole in the main hall, Luo Shi Huiliang couldn't help but mutter.
