Saito Michizo's sudden "resurrection" was indeed a great shock to everyone in the Saito family.

And Saito Michizo is also worthy of being a pit viper, after decisively and boldly spying with everyone in the Senjokan alone, not only the important ministers agreed to the return of Saito Michizo, but even Saito Ryuko, who was about to sit on the throne of the family governor, also agreed to the return of his grandfather.

However, judging from the pale expression of Saito Ryuxing after he came out, it is estimated that this young master of the Saito family is inseparable from the fate of becoming a puppet from now on. After gloating over the schadenfreude of Saito Ryuxing in his heart, Kato Duanzang, the envoy of the Luo family, quickly found Saito Michizo, who was still discussing with the retainers, and after getting the permission of Saito Michizo, Kato Duanzo led people to quickly find Kuaikawa Shaoxi and others.

Fortunately, it is estimated that it was due to the sudden knowledge of Saito Yoshiryu's violent death, so the Saito family has not linked Saito Yoshiryu's violent death with Kuaikawa Shaoxi and others, so at this time, Kuaikawa Shaoxi and others are still safely staying in the courtyard placed for them by the Saito family.

But even so, after learning the news of Saito Yoshiryu's violent death from Kato Duanzang's mouth, Shoki Kuaikawa also knew what was going on, so the master was a little unhappy. Kato Duanzo couldn't do anything about this, and he could only see how his lord Masara analyzed with this master after Kuaikawa Shaoxi returned to Kyushu.

After confirming the safety of Master Kuaikawa Shaoxi and others, Kato Duanzo also began to arrange for everyone to prepare to leave Minokoku quickly, after all, the next thing can only be completely up to Saito Michizo himself, and Kato Duanzo is also worried that Saito Michizo will cross the river and tear down the bridge and arrest their group of people. Then he tried to learn the detailed layout of the Luo family in the United Kingdom from his own group of people. So as to clear the Luo family's power in the United Kingdom one by one.

Although the Luo family has provided great help to Saito Michizo to return to Mino Country this time. But as the so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, so it's better to be just in case, so Kato Duanzo plans to dismiss most of the people after dawn, leaving only a few people in Inabayama Castle as messengers to contact Saito Michizo. As for their family members, in fact, before this operation, everyone, including those hidden chess pieces that were revealed, had already moved to the Far River Country region one by one a month ago. Therefore, everyone at this time is alone, and once they get out of Inabayama Castle, they will be like a fish in the sea and it will be difficult to catch again.

And after dawn that day, the entire Inabayama Castle learned that the governor of the family, Saito Yoshiryu, had died of illness, and the former governor Saito Michizo came back from "coming back from the dead", and was immediately stunned by these two news that shocked the world.

Regarding the reaction of the people in the city, Saito Michizo and those Saito family retainers last night had already expected it, so they also quickly mobilized the forces in the city to control the shape of the city.

And it was under such circumstances that after leaving several members of the Luo family to keep in touch with Saito Michizo, Kato Duanzo led Master Shoki Kusakawa and Yoshiharu Horio and others to leave. Judging by the current situation. Saito Michizo has basically taken control of Inabayama Castle, so it is really difficult for the people of the Luo family to continue to stay in Inabayama Castle.

He went out of the city at the same time as Kato Duanzo. There are also several fast horses of the Saito family, and their mission is to rush to the border area between Mino Province and Owari Province. There, the forces of the Saito family were in a confrontation with the forces of the Oda family.

With the arrival of the three envoys of Saito Michizo, the two sides finally settled down, but Oda Nobunaga later issued a statement in support of his father-in-law Saito Michizo's return to Mino Province, and continued to personally lead troops to stay at the border, and there was a great deal of the situation that if someone in Mino Country was unfavorable to his father-in-law, Saito Michizo, he would wave his troops north to protect his father-in-law.

Oda Nobunaga is really a good son-in-law this time, anyway, as long as Saito Michizo successfully returns to Mino Country, the material consumption caused by the Oda family's dispatch this time will also be secretly compensated by Saito Michizo at some point in the future, and Oda Nobunaga can also take this opportunity to practice a military practice, and at the same time create a false impression that the Oda family can also take the initiative to attack the Saito family to everyone in Owari Province, so as to further strengthen its prestige in Owari Country.

In the evening of the day when the border was temporarily stabilized, Mino and other important ministers of the Saito family, including Yoshitsu Haha (Ichitetsu), Mamoru Ando (Michizu), and Naomoto (Bu Quan) of the clan, reunited at Inabayama Castle.

After a night of negotiations, it was decided that Saito Ryuko, the son of Saito Yoshiryu, would succeed him as the governor of the Saito family, but the real power of the family was in the hands of Saito Michizo, who "came back from the dead".

This is also the actual choice of the people of the Saito family for reality, after all, compared to Saito Ryuxing, who did not have much of a big expression before, or the pit viper Saito Michizo is more reassuring to everyone, so as to avoid the sudden death of the family governor Saito Yoshiryu, which will cause instability in the country of Mino, and will also cause the covetousness of the surrounding forces.

Although Saito Michizo is sometimes very brutal, compared to the previous governor of the Takeda family, Takeda Shintora, who had to forcibly catch strong men to fight during spring ploughing, such a violent act of abandoning people's grievances, the pit viper Saito Michizo is not bad. What's more, since Saito Michizo was able to escape from the previous rebellion of Saito Yoshiryu, and had been lurking outside for so long, and now after suddenly jumping out and "coming back to life", no one knows how many unknown conspiracies there are behind this pit viper (even many people have secretly thought that the previous rebellion of Saito Yoshiryu was also the conspiracy of this pit viper, otherwise how could this pit viper appear so coincidentally on the night of the violent death of the family governor Saito Yoshiryu?). And did Yoshiryu Saito really die violently? The people who had long been jealous of Saito Michizo, a pit viper, had no choice but to pinch their noses and admit Saito Michizo's status.

With Saito Michizo regaining power and announcing a renewed alliance with the Oda family, Oda Nobunaga also led the army and returned to Owari Province as a winner. As a result, a change in the Saito family has finally come to an end.

But the waves caused by this mutation have just begun.

In a wooden house outside Omi Family's Kotani Castle, a group of people led by the sixteen-year-old young master of the Asai family, Shinkuro Asai, are secretly deliberating.

"Your Highness, you can't hesitate any longer. Make up your mind. Then one of the retainers fell on his knees and pleaded.

"Your Highness. Seeing that several adults in the family, such as Haibei Tsunade and Akao Kiyotsuna, were extremely disappointed in the governor of the family. There is a great intention to leave, if you hesitate again, then the Asai family will not be guaranteed! ”

"Your Highness......"

"Hey!"

Faced with everyone's request, Shinkuro Asai couldn't help but sigh.

Looking at the retainers in front of him, and then recalling the history of the Asai family, Asai Shinkuro Kenmasa couldn't help but feel that the Asai family was really the most miserable family in this era. At that time, the family finally replaced the Kyogoku family and acquired the territory of Kita-Omi. But he has been bullied by the hexagonal decision.

In the eyes of Asai Shinkuro Kenmasa, Rokkaku Jorai is indeed a powerful daimyo, he chased Ashikaga Yoshinoki, supported Ashikaga Yoshiharu, and resisted the Miyoshi family, and was the protector of Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Ashikaga Yoshiteru two generations of generals. In addition, he is also the leader of the shogunate, and he is the Motofu ebony hat of Ashikaga Yoshiteru. Under his rule, the Rokkaku family reached its heyday, and all the retainers and wealthy families were forced to move into the Guanyin Temple Castle, where he arbitrarily controlled all parties to the raiders.

As a result, Asai Ryomasa of Shinkuro Asai was often bullied by Rokkaku Dingyori. He was repeatedly driven out of Kita-Omi by Rokkaku Jorai, and was forced to flee to Echizen Province and Mino Province for refuge. Thankfully. The three good families always pull the hind legs of the hexagonal family behind their backs, so that the hexagonal family can't do all the work; Echizen Province and Minoku were worried about the invasion of the Rokkaku family, and they have been vigorously supporting the Asai family.

However, in the opinion of Asai Shinkuro Kenmasa, for the two families of Echizen Province and Mino Province, the Asai family is their barrier against the Rokkaku family, and whenever the Asai family is about to be unable to resist, these two families will help each other to maintain the barrier effect of the Asai family. Although everyone in Asai felt aggrieved by this, at least the Asai family was able to survive with difficulty.

However, this life did not last long, and in 1541, Mino's guardian Toki Yorumi and guardian Daisaisaito Michizo fought in a civil war, which led to the inability of Mino to support the Asai family. So Asai Ryomasa, who was struggling to support, died of exhaustion in the second year, leaving the broken Asai family to continue to be supported by Asai Hisa, the father of Shinkuro Asai Kenmasa.

Later, the powerful daimyo Rokkaku Dinglai finally fell ill and died, which made the Asai family breathe a sigh of relief. However, immediately after that, the pillar of the Asakura family, the leader of the Asakura and Asai Covenants, also passed away, and the support from Asakura was immediately greatly reduced.

At this time, the new governor of the Minami Omi Rokkaku family, Yoshiken Sasaki (later renamed Rokkaku Yoshiken, it was this person who tried to forcibly ask his retainer Yoshida Shigemasa to teach his family archery skills when he was a young master, so in a fit of anger, Yoshida Shigemasa fled, and met Masashi Luo after coming to Kyushu, thus becoming a retainer of the Luo family) and often led troops to attack, his father Asai Hisamasa was humiliated and decided to fight, but in the battle of Takamiya, his father Asai Hisamasa was defeated, he actually abandoned his army and fled back to Kita Omi alone.

After the war, under the mediation of his retainers Yabei Amamori and Seisei Sadasa, his father Hisashi Asai was forced to cede land and sue for peace. At that time, he had also performed the gift of the Yuan Suit, named Shinkuro, and Rokkaku Yoshiken gave him a "Xian" character in his name because he liked it, and married the daughter of the retainer Nakatsu Hirai Kaga Mamoru to himself, and since then, he has the name of Asai Shinkuro Kenmasa. Although the Asai family was able to avoid fighting with the Rokkaku family, it was actually equivalent to a vassal of the Rokkaku family.

Due to the cowardice of his father Asai Hisasa, conflicts within the Asai family had begun to occur at this time, and for this reason, the retainer Kaibei Tsuna, Akao Kiyotsuna (in history, among these people, there was originally Isono Yuanchang, but at this time Isono Yuanchang was already a major minister of the Luo family) and others all had the idea of leaving, which made all the retainers nervous.

And at this time, the Saito family, which was originally a close ally of the Asai family, came with the news of a drastic change, and Saito Yoshiryu, who had always had a good relationship with the Asai family, died violently, and the pit viper Saito Michizo, who had been killed by the Saito Yoshiryu's rebellion, "came back from the dead", which cast a shadow on the relationship between the Asai family and the Saito family.

In this case, the retainers are even more nervous, so there is a secret discussion today, and the thing that these retainers discussed is naturally to instigate Asai Shinkuro Kenmasa to change the status of the monarch and minister with his father Asai Hisasa, so as to succeed to the throne of the family governor, and resolutely lead the weak Asai family at the time of this national crisis.

Thinking of the situation facing his family at this time, Shinkuro Kenmasa Asai couldn't help but think of the two idols in his heart.

These two idols, one is the overlord of Kyushu, the Kyushu Eagle Roche Kyushu Probe Dazai Shuai Masashi, and the other is Oda Sosuke Nobunaga of Imagawa Jibu Daisuke Yoshimoto who killed Kamirakura by force with a surprise attack.

These two people, one of them started from the end of the micro and led a small family to grow into the number one name of the Warring States in just twenty years, and the other one won a chance for the family to survive by defeating a strong enemy in a dangerous situation. As soon as he thought of these two people, Shinkuro Kenmasa Asai felt his blood boiling all over his body.

It was also under such stimulation that he shouted:

"Okay, I promise!"

Yes, he decided to agree to the demands of his retainers and force his father to step down by force, so as to learn from the two of Roshi Masarashi and Oda Nobunaga, and determined to lead the Asai family to become a Sengoku daimyo who could not be bullied at will.

In order to show his intentions, he decided to change his name to Asai Nagamasa by removing the humiliation character from his name and replacing it with the character "Naga" of Oda Nobunaga, and at the same time taking the same name as the character "Masa" in his name. (To be continued......)
