Chapter 1503 Marriage is not easy

Yiyin puts on an air of hypocrisy in front of Pusheng's township, fooling this innocent child into continuing to look after him.

Although Pusheng Shixiang is intelligent, but at the age of the first love, no matter how clever his head is, he is dazzled by love, and Yiyin fools her with a few words.

Yiyin's pitiful words are three parts true and seven parts false.

To say that Takeda Uesugi used him is also to use each other and complement each other.Saying that Yamanakajima was not loyal enough to him, Yiyin actually believed in their loyalty, and Rena's incident was an accident.

Emotional matters belong to emotional matters. In politics, Yoshigin is already the leader of the conservative samurai family. His power, prestige, and status have surpassed the general Ashikaga Yoshiaki, who is not worthy of the name in Kyoto.

Yiyin said that he was pitiful, but in fact, most of the time, others depended on him to live, so how could he dare to despise him and disobey him.

But even so, the co-lord of the Samurai family is not a centralized monarch, and Yoshigin's camp is still full of hidden dangers. It is still unknown whether it can successfully pull up an army of [-] to confront the Oda family.

Because of this, while Yoshihiro went to Sakai Port to raise military expenses and swindle artillery, Akechi Mitsuhide went out of Beijing again, and took Saito Ryuko to Azuchi Castle to meet Nokun, a cheap cousin.

It is true that Mitsuhide Akechi walked away from his relatives, but it is true that he broke into the Oda camp to manipulate public opinion.She always believes that the key to defeating the Oda family is not military strength, but starting from the inside of the Oda family.

There are many hidden dangers here in Yiyin, is Oda Nobunaga's subordinate a piece of iron?If it was really a piece of iron, why did the Owari old samurai send a lot of money to Takada Yono to find a way out?
In this chaotic world of the Wu family, who is not at the ends of snakes and rats, thinking about their own interests everywhere?
Shiba Oda's contradiction has not yet reached an irreconcilable sharp confrontation.Akechi Mitsuhide is going to the Oda camp to promote her concept of Genpei Confluence.

The battle between the two lords is just a battle of spirits. Why can't a man and a woman join hands to conquer the world? This argument is very attractive to the Oda camp.

Especially when the war is at a stalemate and the casualties are heavy, I believe many people will take the initiative to stand up and persuade Oda Nobunaga to give up the idea of ​​killing the fish and breaking the net.

Perhaps this decisive battle, which is said to be tens of thousands of people and will determine the fate of the world, is just anticlimactic in the end. With the martial arts on both sides holding back their legs, they have no choice but to agree with each other.

If this result can be brought about, Akechi Mitsuhide is also happy to hear it.

---

Azuchi Castle, Castle Tower.

Oda Nobunaga was talking to Niwa Nagahide when suddenly there was a loud commotion from the direction of the inner courtyard, which even affected them.

Niwa Nagahide didn't know why, so he looked at Oda Nobunaga.Oda Nobunaga waved his hand and said indifferently.

"It's the mayor who is chasing people away.

Akechi Mitsuhide brought Saito Ryuko over to see No-kun, you know that since Asai Nagamasa died, Ichi-kun hated Tsutaden and Hideyoshi to death, and even had an extreme dislike for Akechi Mitsuhide. "

Niwa Chohide nodded.

Speaking of which, Akechi Mitsuhide is also amazing.Seeing that the Shiba and Oda families are at war, a war is about to start.

Akechi Mitsuhide has both sides, and was reused in front of Shibayoshi Ginza, and Oda Nobunaga also valued her quite a lot.

Saito Ryuko is the daughter of Saito Yoshiryu. Back then, Saito Yoshiryu killed his mother and seized the throne, occupied the Mino country, and fought with Oda Nobunaga to death, but the two families are actually relatives.

Nokun is the younger brother of Saito Yoshiryu, Saito Ryuko, the escaped heir of the Saito family, is Nokun's own niece.

Oda Nobunaga has now completely engulfed the Mino country, the Saito family's foundation in East Mino has been uprooted, and Saito Ryuko is no longer a threat to Oda Nobunaga.

Therefore, Akechi Mitsuhide used Saito Ryuko as his niece as a link, and claimed to be Nokun's cousin. He had a very close relationship with Nokun, and Oda Nobunaga didn't care.

As for Nong-kun, a man from the samurai family whose husband's power has been destroyed and has no one to rely on, Akechi Mitsuhide and Saito Ryuko are indeed her support and foreign aid, so they are naturally close.

Oda Nobunaga also needs a sensible person like Mitsuhide Akechi to influence Nokun, hoping that Nokun can take the initiative to make way for the future Genpei confluence.

After the death of his wife, the city-kun hated Shiba Yoshigin and Hashiba Hideyoshi extremely, and lived with No-kun.

How could he not be angry when he saw Akechi Mitsuhide, the important minister of the Shiba family, always speaking for the confluence of Shiba and Oda families in front of Nokun?
His own wife was obsessed with Yoshihiro Shiba until the end of her life, and now her sister was going to break up with Yoshihiro Nokun, a good friend, for Yoshihiro Shiba, and take the place of Yoshihiro Shiba.

The mayor's temper resembles Oda Nobunaga's. If she hadn't been powerless, she would have had Mitsuhide Akechi's head cut off and kicked as a ball.

Niwa Chohide was actually very clear about these Oda internal affairs, but as a foreign minister, she couldn't say anything, so she could only sigh.

Oda Nobunaga glanced at her.

"Why are you sighing, do you have a good relationship with Akechi Mitsuhide?"

Niwa Chohide shook his head.

"It's just a nodding acquaintance, it's not good or not.

I just thought it would be no problem for Akechi Mitsuhide to be able to enter Kyoto for the first time, and it must be that Jindaden did not reject Genpei Confluence.

Since it is not impossible to talk about the merger of the Shiba and Oda families, what is the point of planning this battle now? "

Oda Nobunaga shook his head.

"You, you have been smart for a lifetime, but you are confused for a while, and you feel sorry for the money you spent, right?
Jin Duodian is not easy to get along with, he has always been assertive, persistent, self-reliant and self-reliant.

Akechi Mitsuhide is just a pawn he tacitly agreed to shake my retainer group. If I don't show him some color, do you really think he will obediently come to negotiate peace with me and make a bed?
If he can't win this battle, how can Jin Duodian bow his head easily?Only by letting him know how powerful I am, he will take the initiative to come to my side and let me do what he did in Owari. "

Oda Nobunaga's words were a bit frivolous and resentful. Niwa Nagahide knew that she had always been brooding about the past when Shiba Yoshigin resolutely went to Los Angeles and soared to the sky.

But if there is no Shiba Shangluo, how can there be the famous Shiba Jindo Temple today, which makes Oda Nobunaga so dreamy, hard to give up, and Shiba Yoshigin who wholeheartedly wants to conquer again.

So, human nature is a contradiction.

Niwa Chohide smiled wryly.

"Since the hall knows that Akechi Mitsuhide's preaching of Yuanping Confluence at home will shake the hearts of the family, so why let her go around to show off?"

Oda Nobunaga was silent for a while, then sighed.

"Mi Wuniang, do you know how the Shiba family fell from the Ashikaga family to the common people?"

Niwa Chohide nodded.

"Probably know something.

The Kamakura shogun was extinct, and the Ashikaga family, as a powerful royal family of the Kamakura shogunate, was also the closest branch of the Hanoi Minamoto lineage, threatening the Hojo family before the shogunate came to power.

In order to resolve the hostility of the former Hojo family, the governor of the Ashikaga family took the initiative to divorce her husband and married the son of the former Hojo family. The divorced husband and children became commoners, and they were the ancestors of the Shiba family. "

Oda Nobunaga looked at Niwa Nagohide without speaking, Niwa Nagohide suddenly nodded, somewhat understanding Oda Nobunaga's complicated state of mind.

You know, Oda Nobunaga is eager to conquer Shibo Yoshigin, he must use force to subdue him, and let him marry him willingly.

The history of the Shiba family is extraordinary. Looking back at the history, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Shiba family is the true descendant of the Hanoi Genji family, and the Ashikaga shogunate has always established the Shiba family as the first relative of the Ashikaga family.

The background of the Iseheira family of the Oda family was made up by Oda Nobunaga himself, but the background of the descendants of the Kawachi Genji family of the Shiba family is true.The political significance of the confluence of sources and flats is very important to Oda Nobunaga.

On the one hand, Oda Nobunaga can justifiably replace General Ashikaga and become a member of the new world.

On the other hand, she was able to reduce the hostility and resistance of traditional samurai towards her by marrying the most powerful leader of traditional samurai, Shibo Yoshiin.

To put it bluntly, Nobunaga Oda wanted to climb up, and it was the toad who wanted to eat swan meat.

The benefits of winning Shiba Yoshiyin are too many, so much that even if Oda Nobunaga's hidden love for him is removed, it is a huge benefit that Oda Nobunaga can hardly give up.

Oda Nobunaga's current position is just like the Hojo family before the shogunate came to power.The strength is there, but the background is too low, and he is anxious about the existence of the famous Ashikaga family.

At this time, marriage is the best way.

But back then, the governor of the Ashikaga family voluntarily divorced and separated from her husband, leaving room for the Hojo family. So what about the Oda family today?
Oda Nobunaga has married a husband, and this husband is her political bargaining chip to occupy Mino country.

She didn't marry the son of the Saito family, and she didn't have a reason to avenge her mother-in-law. Why did she, Oda Nobunaga, enter the Mino Kingdom?

Now, the Mino country has been completely digested by the Oda family. Oda Nobunaga wants to kill the donkey, and he will marry Shiba Yoshigin after he divorces him. Isn't this ugly?

Akechi Mitsuhide's identity is very important to Oda Nobunaga. She is an important minister of the Shiba family, a cousin of Nokun, and an advocate of Genpei Confluence.

If Akechi Mitsuhide came forward to promote Genpei Confluence and force Nokun to take the initiative to reunite, the political harm to Oda Nobunaga would be minimal.

As for the uneasiness at home that Niwa Chohide mentioned, that is the price that Oda Nobunaga and Nokun have to pay for separation and reunion.

Niwa Chohide sighed.

"It's no wonder those people in West Merino insisted on fighting the Shiba family. They were worried about Junli... After that, the status of the Mino people would be suppressed."

Oda Nobunaga sneered.

"Before I officially started the war with Jin Duodian, all the ghosts and snakes were impatient and jumped out.

Shibata, Takikawa, Sakuma, those guys, they think I don't know they are buying real estate in nearby Sibo?

Those money and food went around Takada Yono, and they all became the military expenses of Shiba's family, which made me really angry.

As for the Ximeno Wu family, what do you think they are clamoring for?
Nong-kun is the son of the Saito family, and Dongmino of the Saito family has been swallowed by the old samurai family of Owari.Nishi Mino was worried that once Mr. Nong retreated, the old samurai family of Owari and the Shiba family would join forces to violate their interests.

Maeda Masari, Maeda Toshiie, Takada Yono, these important ministers of Shiba were all from Shimowari four prefectures, and they have a good relationship with the Owari old samurai family.

In addition, when Jindadian went to Sakai Port, he did not forget to visit Ishiyama Honganji Temple.

The people in Nishimino have a lot of interests in the northern part of Ise, and Nagashima has always been a pain in the throat. I feel uncomfortable, and they also feel uncomfortable.The better the relationship between Shiba's family and Izumozong, the more uncomfortable they are.

I also didn't expect that in the war with the Shiba family, the people who supported me the most in the family turned out to be the individuals of Ximeno, which is also interesting. "

Niwa Chohide sighed and shook his head.

Now that the Oda family has a big family and a big business, it is natural that dragons and snakes are mixed up, and many things are becoming more and more incomprehensible.

The four counties of Shimoowari are the origins of Oda Nobunaga, and many retainers of the Shiba family also went out from here, and the relationship between the two parties is inextricably linked.

The old samurai of Owari are the ones who least want to see Shiba Oda go to war, and they are also the main force who secretly bet on both ends to stay behind.

On the contrary, the Nishi Mino samurai, who was conquered by Oda Nobunaga, stood firm.

Back then, the Oda family just won the Mino country, because Owari Mino and the two countries were about the same size, and it was impossible for Oda Nobunaga to swallow them all, so they concentrated their efforts to win the East Mino.

The Nishi Mino samurai were sent by Oda Nobunaga to attack Kita Ise to prevent them from affecting their digestion of Higashi Mino. Therefore, the Nishi Mino samurai established a considerable territory and interests in Kita Ise.

Nagashima is located at the estuary of the Kiso River, on the border of Owari-Ise. The Nishi Mino Samurai used to travel down the Kiso River to conquer the land of Northern Ise along the way.

At this moment, Nagashima has always been invading the Oda family's territory, harassing along the coast of Ise Bay and Kiso River.

On the side of Ise Bay is the Atsuta Jingu trading circle where Oda started, and along the Kiso River is the new territory of Nishi Mino. The people who hate Nagashima most are Oda Nobunaga and Nishi Mino Samurai.

In addition, the marriage between Mino-kun and Oda Nobunaga symbolizes the political alliance between Mino and the Owari Samurai. If Oda Nobunaga wants to divorce, the Mino Samurai will of course be uncomfortable.

They don't care about Nong-kun, but they care about the political significance of the dissolution of the marriage. The political status of the Nishi Mino family in the Oda family will inevitably decline.

Ise country, Omi country, and Echizen country are newly conquered lands. The most influential retainers of the Oda family are the Owari faction and the Mino faction, and they are also the main force of the army.

Oda Nobunaga knew that letting Mitsuhide Akechi rush into the Oda family and yelling was not good for the subsequent Shiba Oda War, and it would easily cause discord and division among the retainers.

But in the long run, Oda Nobunaga needs to indulge Akechi Mitsuhide to promote Genpei Confluence. This is a temporary pain that must be tolerated in order to dissolve the marriage with Nokun and then marry Shiba Yoshigin.

Niwa Changhide knew Oda Nobunaga's helplessness, she could only comfort her.

"Main hall, in fact, Owari also has voices supporting the war, such as Tie Fanxiu."

Oda Nobunaga glanced at Niwa Changhide.

"Mi Wuniang, are you trying to comfort me? Are you trying to make trouble for me?"

Hirate Panxiu is the granddaughter of Oda Nobunaga teacher Hirate Masahide. Oda Nobunaga has been unruly since he was a child.

Although Oda Nobunaga is not obedient and still does his own way, he still has a lot of affection for this teacher and treats her descendants differently.

The heirs of the Hirate family are difficult, and now only Hirate Masahide's granddaughter, Hirate Panhide, has come out of Shioda.She is young, high-spirited, and wants to stand out, so she is naturally enthusiastic about the war.

The Owari Young Sect headed by Hirate Panhide is different from Shibata Katsuie and the old samurai who have already had their fill. They support the war with the Shiba family this time.

First, when the young man made his debut, the Shiba family had already left Owari, and the two parties did not have the same old relationship as they did back then.

Both, the Shiba family is in full swing, which is a great opportunity for young people who want to take advantage of military exploits to rise to the top.

But in Oda Nobunaga's view, what she needs is not Hirate Fanxiu and the group of lackluster youths, but Shibata, Takikawa, and Sakuma, the core strength of the Owari faction.

Niwa Changhide's words were not so much to comfort her, but rather to let her see clearly the rottenness of the Owari faction.

Oda Nobunaga couldn't help thinking of Hashiba Hideyoshi at this moment, and wondered how the monkey was doing in Omi, and whether he could take on more important responsibilities.
