Staying at Tsuruga Castle for one night, the next day, Yoshiin and his entourage headed north to the Fukui Plain, and Asakura Keiki will go with the team to Ichijo Valley Castle.

With the signboard of Zongdi Gong, the road was unimpeded until the envoy she sent returned, and the governor of the Asakura family, Yoshijing, was unwell and had no opinion on her.

Asakura Jingji was suddenly embarrassed, she came to ask to see the governor, she came to introduce Sipo Yiyin.

Asakura Yoshikage didn't give Asakura Zong any face, and directly refused.

Fortunately, the crossing was not blocked, and Yiyin smiled and pretended to be fine, and continued on the road.

Uesugi Huihu watched coldly, after the two talked yesterday, they also had a knot, and at this time they were a little happy.

I have regarded you as a treasure, and you have abandoned me like a piece of. Look at what others think of you.

Yoshiyin is also in his heart, the internal contradictions of the Asakura family are more serious than imagined, and he doesn't know how long the sea route in Tsuruga County can last.

I hope that Asakura Zongdi will live longer, and with her as a big Buddha town, Asakura Yoshikyo will not dare to reach out to Tsuruga County, so that this passage will not be cut off.

———

One ride valley castle, castle tower.

Asakura Yoshijing sat on the main seat with a gloomy face, and the next head was his sister Asakura Jingjing.

Yijing glanced at his sister and said unhappily.

"You think I'm doing something wrong, too?"

Jing Jing bowed his head and said.

"Don't dare."

Yijing said angrily.

"Don't you dare? I know what you all think.

I was mediocre and incompetent, stubbornly guarding Echizen and refusing to forge ahead, relying on my mother's blessings to do nothing.

But I have my own difficulties, the Asakura family has ruled Echizen for five generations. How many direct collars are left in the main family? How many people in my house will listen?

The foreign war is simple to say, and winning the war rewards them, making them even more inflated and difficult to control.

Losing the strength of the main family, making me weak and powerless to limit them, it is really a good calculation! ”

The Asakura family had no choice but to govern the country with their relatives, and in addition to the retainers, they were mainly divided into two types of samurai.

One is the heirs of the successive family governors, such as the Tsuruga Asakura family and the Ohno Asakura family.

The second is that Echizen guards his subordinates, but he is not a retainer of the Asakura family, such as the Makaku family and the Horie family.

These local forces were all strong in military power, and the Tsuruga and Ono were even more elite soldiers in Echizen.

In a war with the outside world, if they win, they will be rewarded and will be rewarded, and if they lose, they will let Asakura Yoshikyo carry the black pot and empty the armament, who is willing to fight this kind of battle.

Asakura Jingjing was silent for a long time and said.

"After all, Zong Digong is highly respected, and this bit of face should be given to her."

Asakura Yoshikage was stunned for a moment and said.

"It's not that I don't want to give her face, it's just that she went too far this time and actually cooperated with the Spo family.

Spo Yiyin passed through the real handle area, but did anyone visit him? ”

The Mangami area is located at the southern end of the Fukui Plain, and is home to Echizen people such as the Mangaku family and the Horie family.

At the beginning, the Spo clan was the guardian of Echizen, and they were already a samurai family under their command.

After that, the Chaocang family was on the top, and they couldn't beat the first Chaocang family governor, so they had to bow their heads and be small.

After that, the shogunate pinched his nose and recognized the Echizen guardian of the Asakura family, and these samurai also surrendered to the Asakura family.

But they are not retainers of the Asakura family, but the samurai family under the command of Echizen, and they only bear part of the military service, and their existence is very eye-catching.

Chaocang Jingjing sighed.

"The Asakura family has ruled Echizen for five generations, and it has been recognized by the shogunate as a guardian daimyo in the guardian system.

Even if Si Po Yiyin was born in the Si Po Sect family, they would not faint and go to serve! ”

She is helpless against her sister, sharp-minded, and sentimental, and she is really mediocre as a family governor.

It's not a matter of talent, it's a matter of less open-mindedness, and it's hard to achieve great things.

Asakura Yoshijing saw that his sister was a little angry, and he didn't want to say any more, so he shook his head and said.

"If you don't see it, you won't see it, the Sibo family is a few miles away in the south, but it's just an envoy to Echigo to transit, and it will be difficult to have any intersection in the future.

If I don't give him face, what can he do?

You should be careful to envelop the people, this is the most important thing. ”

Asakura Jingjing squinted and gave up persuasion.

My sister couldn't listen to it, didn't she really understand that this was offending Zong Di Gong, not Si Po Yiyin?

Avoiding the important is just perfunctory to her, in the final analysis, it is to be angry with Zongdi.

There's no way to take that old man, it's disgusting and disgusting, it's really narrow-minded.

Asakura Jingjing shook her head, no matter what happened to the Asakura family in the future, she would hold on to the big wild people first.

Yijing, the elder sister, treated her well, and even took down the Ono County Division and handed it to her, so that she had the capital to settle down.

Echizen was a strong army, the southern Tsuruga people to deal with the near several, and the northern Ono people to deal with Kaga Issunamune.

Now that she has obtained the authority of the Ono County Division, she must seize the Ono people.

No matter what the situation at home is in the future, she can advance and retreat freely.

Asakura Yoshikei is bent on calculating to take back domestic rights to the main family, but he doesn't know her sister's deep thoughts.

These two people, one thinks about sisters and the other thinks about judging the situation, which is also interesting.

———

Echizen, Spo Yoshigin, was given a cold reception.

In Kyoto, the tea party organized by Akechi Mitsuhide was a scene of flowers and boiling oil.

The grand tea party was held in the atrium of the Imperial Palace, and it was a royal tea party that the Shogun favored the Spo family and allowed Akechi Mitsuhide to prepare.

Hosokawa Fujitaka never expected that Akechi Mitsuhide's wrists were so flexible, and a communication that won over various families could also pull out the general to make a tiger skin, and he looked good.

The two met at the tea party, and she said with a smile.

"I didn't expect you to ask for the general's support, obviously you planned it, but now it's for the princess."

She knows best that Akechi Mitsuhide's greed for Spo Yoshigin, and she should be extremely disgusted with the general who is bent on marrying the lord.

Akechi Mitsuhide gave her a gentle smile back and said.

"This was the first event held in Kyoto after the revival of the Spo family, and it should not be taken lightly by the samurai.

I went to plead with the general, and she did the same, so she did it bigger, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Hosokawa Fujitaka looked at Kamishi, where the samurai were vying to flatter the general, and the sound of flattery was endless.

Not only the shogun, but also Rokkaku Yoshiken and Gamo Hyunhide are among them, and there is even Matsunaga Show of the Miyoshi family.

She snorted and said.

"It's really a double win, and the Spo family and the Ashikaga family had a bit of an unpleasant quarrel a few days ago.

Now, the shogun wants to take back the territory of the shogunate who made a mistake and build a new Nijo Imperial Palace, and everyone knows that his ambition is female.

It was up to everyone to see me on her side before we could do anything. ”

Ashikaga Yoshiki willingly agreed to Akechi Mitsuhide to stand up for the Spo family's tea party, and also let all opponents see the support of the local powerful party for her.

After Hatakeyama Takamasa made a statement, the Spo Hosokawa Mibuchi family had unified the attitude of the local powerful faction.

This huge interest group, which encompasses four families and actually receives nearly 500,000 koku, is on the side of Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and the internal divisions of the shoguns can only serve as the general's meat.

And the external environment does not allow them to leave anything to chance.

Rokkaku Yoshiken came to Kyoto in person, making it clear that he didn't want to conflict with the Ashikaga family, and he was bent on calculating the Kita-Omi Asai family.

The death of Miyoshi Yoshiken gave Miyoshi Changqing a headache, and he didn't know who should be handed over to manage the two countries of Settsu and Tanbo.

The four countries are still unstable, and she needs to be in charge, and she can't be separated.

His own house is in turmoil, and he is also unable to peep into the shogunate.

Ashikaga Yoshiteru's current position is even more stable than when Rokkaku was able to support him.

As long as he encircles the powerful local factions, he can safely take the shogunate led by the Ise family, gather power, and work hard.

Therefore, it is not surprising that after the departure of Spo Yoshigin, the principal who remained behind Akechi Mitsuhide, would be favored by the shogun.

Akechi Mitsuhide ignored Hosokawa Fujitaka's cynicism, and looked at Rokkaku Yoshiken, who was deferential to the general, and Ise Sadakyo with a face like ashes, revealing a smile with a hidden meaning.

Afterwards, she walked to Matsunaga Shu and Tsutsui Shunkei, who were having a good conversation, and joined in the small talk with a spring breeze.

Let's start here.

The high-spirited shogun was still saying reassuring words that he didn't believe, weighing in his mind how to wrest more power from the shogun.

And behind her, a pair of apricot eyes were in a hidden corner, revealing murderous intentions.
