After being forced to hand over half of the Yue Chi County to the Luo family in order to get the Luo family's truce promise, Kono Tongzhi obviously would not be reconciled. Therefore, in addition to sending his retainers to invite the Ohno family and the Utsunomiya family in the central region of Iyu Province to jointly resist the invasion of the Luo family, he also secretly sent people from the eastern region of Iyu Province to the Miyoshi family in Sanki Province and the Mori family in Bigo Province from the eastern region of Iyu Province and along the coast of Guò Suitan.

As for the Maori family, since they are already allies of the Kono family, Kono Tongzhi naturally hopes to get the assistance of the Maori family to deal with the Luo family together. As for the Miyoshi family, Kono is ready to establish diplomatic relations with them, and it is best to be an ally, so that they can use the powerful Daimyo Miyoshi family, which is also recently rising, to deal with the Luo family. Of course, he is also afraid of luring wolves into the house because of this (historically, the Kono family was indeed invaded by the Miyoshi family), so he must also be vigilant against the Miyoshi family.

Just when Kono Tongzhi was secretly preparing to unite various forces to resist the invasion of the Luo family, the governor of the Xitu Temple, who was also in the Yiyu Kingdom, was also worried at this time.

Previously, after the end of the First World War of Itsukushima, when the Luo family began to attack the territory of the Ouchi family and invade the Kono family in the northern region of Iyu Province, they had asked the Xitu temple family to send troops to fight from the south to face the territory in the central region of the Kono family, so as to achieve the purpose of containing the Kono family.

Regarding the Luo family's request, after receiving the money and food sent by the Luo family, Xitu Temple did send troops into the territory of the Kono family in the central region of Yiyu Kingdom to make trouble, but on the whole, it was also thunder and rain, and the Luo family naturally had opinions on this. Even a messenger was sent to remind him eventually.

on this. Xitu Temple had to try to analyze and deal with it. But secretly. Xitu Temple still ordered his family's military strength to make a look, after all, the military strength of the Xitu Temple family is going to enter the territory of the Kono family, in fact, it has to pass through the territory of the Ohno family and the Utsunomiya family, these two families have been in conflict with the Xitu Temple family in recent years, especially the Utsunomiya family, Xitu Temple Shimitsu's sister-in-law Xiyuan Temple Gonggao died in the hands of this family, and this family also has a lot of relatives who died in the hands of the Xitu Temple army, and the two families can be described as undying enemies.

In such a situation. If the Utsunomiya family and the Ohno family unite at that time to intercept the Nishitoji family's advance into the Kono family's territory, then the Nishitoji family's army will suffer. If something goes wrong, he really doesn't know who to cry with.

In addition, the Tosa Kuni Ichijo family, located to the south of the Saitoji family, in addition to always trying to dye the territory of the Iyu Saitoji family, is also an ally of the Utsunomiya family, the rival of the Saitoji family, and in this case, the Saitoji temple is naturally more cautious.

But now Xitu Temple Shichong has received news again, and he learned that the Luo family has basically completed the strategy in the western region. In fact, this rumor was deliberately spread by Masarashi, after all, it continued to spread from the mouths of some samurai peasants who were lucky enough to escape from the Battle of Itsushima in the first place. Sooner or later, the surrounding forces will know the situation in the western kingdom at this time, in order to prevent these forces from rushing over like hungry wolves smelling the smell of blood. Zhengliang simply sent people to spread the rumor that the Luo family had completely attacked the territory of the Western Great Inner Family, so that the surrounding forces did not dare to move.

With the spread of this news, after learning about it, Xitu Temple Minoru was naturally apprehensive, after all, this time he really did a very inauthentic job against the Kono family. At this time, the Saitoji family had to rely on the support of the Luo family to safely confront the Utsunomiya family and the Ohno family in the north, and the Ichijo family in the south. If the Luo family blames the Xitu temple family for this, or even renounces the covenant and fights against the Xitu temple family, then the situation of the Xitu temple family will be in danger.

Faced with such a situation, the Xitu Temple immediately found several important ministers in the family to discuss together.

"My lord, since this is the case, then let your subordinates personally bring valuable gifts, and under the pretext of congratulating the Luo family on their victory in the Western Kingdom, go to the Luo family to test it." After learning of the doubts of the lord Xitu Temple, the important minister of the family, Tuju Qingzong, spoke.

"Then I will leave it to Qingzong you." The actual role of the temple in the temple immediately agreed to the request of the Toi Kiyozong.

So with the entrustment of the lord Xitu Temple Shimitsu, Doi Kiyozong went to the Yamaguchi Castle of the Western Kingdom Zhou Defense to meet with Masashi there, and as soon as they met, Toi Kiyozong represented Nishitu Temple Shimitsu and the Xitu Temple family to ask Masayo for sin:

"The foreign minister begs Yagata to forgive the family for their previous negligence, and the foreign minister is willing to apologize with death."

"Hehe, Your Excellency has filtered, Major General Zuo (the official position of Saionji Shichong) is aware of the situation below, and it is rare to be able to contain a part of the Kono family's military strength under such circumstances." Zhengliang said with a smile that seemed to be quite tolerant, while muttering to himself in his heart, this old guy in front of him is indeed a little cunning, he actually blocked the opportunity for him to blame from the beginning, took the initiative to bear the responsibility, and forced him to die, if he really let this old guy die, it will affect the relationship between the Luo family and the Xitu Temple family, and then affect Zhengliang's next plan. However, even so, Masashi did not intend to let go of the Xitu temple family, so he continued:

"Since Major General Zuo is so willing to share the pressure for his family, there is also a letter here, please pass it on to Major General Zuo on your behalf, in addition, I heard that your grandson is very smart in your family, and I intend to take him as a small surname, I don't know what Your Excellency thinks?"

After hearing this, the Tuju Qingzong, who was kneeling on the ground, was slightly stunned at first, and then secretly smiled bitterly, it seems that the price that should be paid is still to be paid. However, at least from the words of the young overlord in front of him, it can be clearly known that this time the Xitu Temple family escaped a disaster, but the secret letter to be transferred to the lord Xitu Temple Shichong is stated, I am afraid it is not a good thing, but all the qiē will be known after going back and letting the lord open it for inspection.

The only thing that made him a little embarrassed was the request for his grandson. First of all, what the overlord in front of him said that "he has a grandson" is completely false, because so far, he has only one grandson in the Qingzong Sect. And this grandson is only ten years old this year, but he has already taken the name of Toi Kiyora. Obviously, this overlord seems to be well aware of the situation of his family personnel. From this sentence, it can also be learned that the overlord obviously wants to condemn his grandson, and sue himself that he is very aware of the situation in his family and is not allowed to transfer the contract.
