different warring states of japan

Chapter 373 Conspiracy
When Takada Yoshino showed her fangs in Sakai Port, not far away from her, the Settsu country under the control of the Miyoshi family was gloomy.

In Settsu Akutagawa Castle, a funeral is being held.

Miyoshi Changqing's second younger sister, Miyoshi Yoshiken, who won the Tanba Kingdom in the recent battle and made great contributions to the Miyoshi family, died of illness.

She persevered with injuries during the war, fell ill after the war, and finally failed to survive the winter and died in Akutagawa City.

Miyoshi Yoshihito is the pillar of Miyoshi Changqing staying in recent days. He controls Miyoshi's family, Setjin, Danbo and the two countries, and has great power.

Her death made the unsettled underwater of Miyoshi's family even more turbulent.

Through the funeral, the trio of Miyoshi gathered in Akutagawa City to discuss countermeasures for the post-Miyoshi Yoshiken era.

Miyoshi Changyi, who established a friendship with Matsunaga Hideo during the Battle of Kokoji Temple, also invited her to participate.

Song Yongxiu was appointed as the lord of Diancheng by Miyoshi Changqing because of his meritorious advice.

Yodo Castle is the front line of Miyoshi's line against the shogunate, the only stronghold in the mountain city, and it has a very important strategic weight.

As the city lord, Song Yongxiu's status should not be underestimated.

The four of them exchanged a few words of etiquette and got to the point.

Miyoshi Changyi frowned.

"Miyoshi Yixian has passed away, and there is no one to rule the Sanhao territory in recent days. I don't know how His Highness will arrange it."

The death of Miyoshi Yoshihide dealt a huge blow to the Miyoshi trio who depended on her.

The Four Sisters and Three Kingdoms system of the Sanhao Family takes Sanhao Changqing as the core.

The second younger sister, Miyoshi Yoshin, suppressed Awa in the early years, and was later transferred to Setjin, where she had the greatest power.

Among the Miyoshi trio, the Setjin group that Miyoshi Changyi is in charge of, and the Miyoshi group that Miyoshi Zhengkang controls Miyoshi's family, are all under the command of Miyoshi Yixian.

In addition, Iwanari Yutong often travels to various parties for the Miyoshi family, and the power of the Miyoshi trio is only under the power of the Miyoshi Four Sisters and the young master Miyoshi Yoshiko.

But after the recent wars, everything was messed up.

The battle of ten rivers and one survival did not take place in Yamato, and the corners of the three good and four sisters collapsed.

Because of the heavy casualties in the Yamato War, the Sanuki people not only lost their strength, but also were questioned by various factions in the family, and there was a possibility of turmoil.

What's more troublesome is that Miyoshi Yoshiko, the daughter of Miyoshi Changqing, the orthodox heir of the Miyoshi family, died in battle. Who will inherit the family business?
In the end, Miyoshi Changqing chose to adopt the daughter of Shihe Yicun, Shihe Yoshitsugu, and changed his name to Miyoshi Yoshitsuki to inherit the position of the young master, so as to appease the Sanuki people.

This action aroused the dissatisfaction of Miyoshi Yixian, and even the Miyoshi trio were at odds with Miyoshi Yoshitsuji.

If Miyoshi Yixian is still there, Miyoshi Changqing will still feel difficult to face this sister who has made great military achievements and is highly respected.

But at this time, Miyoshi Yixian died, and the Miyoshi trio who stood in Miyoshi Yixian's camp were embarrassed.

With the leaders of their own faction absent, can they withstand the suppression of the young master Miyoshi Yoshitsugu and even the family governor Miyoshi Changqing?

Miyoshi Yoshitsugu is not idle these days, she wins over Shinohara Nagabo, the leader of Awazhong, and Miyoshi Changqing's third sister, Toyasu Azaka.

Awa, Awaji, and Sanuki are the foundation of the Three Kingdoms, and all the Three Kingdoms support the young master together. As the opposition, the Miyoshi Sanguo will feel uncomfortable.

If Miyoshi Changqing came forward to cut off their hidden danger at this time, the three of them might not be able to fight back, and the collapse of their forces would be imminent.

Miyoshi Changyi also couldn't think of a way, so he found the younger generation she admired, Song Yongxiu, to see if she had any good ideas.

Song Yongxiu smiled and said.

"How His Highness will arrange it depends on the three adults' willingness to part with the power in their hands.

Tamba country and Settsu country are the fulcrums for the Miyoshi family to enter the nearest few, and Miyoshi is the elite of the family.

These rights are in the hands of Miyoshi Yixian, His Highness is naturally at ease.

Now that the adult has passed away, who should control this right?

If the family governor wants to support Miyoshi Yoshito to succeed the adults, he will definitely take back the power from the three adults in order to stabilize the harmony in the family. "

Song Yongxiu said what the Miyoshi trio were most worried about, and she didn't want the trio to lose power.

Shihe Yicun and Miyoshi Yoshiko died in Yamato, but she, a fellow traveler, was safe and sound, and there was always a thorn in the governor's heart.

Just for the sake of the family business, Miyoshi Changqing's first-generation owl female can still bear it, and won't do anything to her for the time being.

Song Yongxiu offered advice to stabilize the emotions of the various factions in the family, but there were also flaws in it.

Her strategy is to bury her head in Nishikinji, unite forces inside and outside the shogunate who hate the Ashikaga family, and then elevate the Shiba family to compete with the Ashikaga family for power.

After waiting for the shogunate to self-disrupt, the Miyoshi family can go to Luo again to compete for the central authority.

The shogunate has been in turmoil for more than a hundred years, and internal strife has continued. Her strategy seems to be feasible, but today is different from the past.

The Shiba family united with the Hosokawa Mibuchi family to unite the territory of the local powerful faction, so that the Miyoshi family did not dare to encroach on it casually.

The Miyoshi family is estranged from the Ise family and the Liujia family, and there is no trustworthy middleman to make friends with. How to establish contact.

Yoshiki Ashikaga in the shogunate is not an idiot either. The Ashikaga family has declined to what it is today. She will not lay a heavy hand on the Shiba family and destroy the Great Wall herself.

Now it seems that the infighting between the Ashikaga family and the Shiba family is still within a reasonable range. What is more troublesome is that Shiba Yoshigin is a man.

The two have an option for final reconciliation, and that is marriage.

The patience of the Miyoshi samurai family is limited. Once Miyoshi Changqing completely stabilizes the situation in the family, the shogunate has not changed for a long time.

Matsunaga Hideo, who offered advice, would be regarded as a blustery waste and hated by the Miyoshi samurai.

At this time, how could Miyoshi Changqing recall the tragic death of his sister and daughter in Yamato, and send her down to be their companion?

Therefore, Song Yongxiu must not allow the internal harmony of Miyoshi's family, and must make Miyoshi Changqing unable to stabilize the family, so that he can survive.

When she came to see the three good people this time, she saw that the three were reluctant to give up their power and instigated the three to fight among themselves.

The Sanuki people of Miyoshi Yoshitsugu, the Awa people of Shinohara Nagabu, and the Awaji people of Toyasu Ataka belong to the same group.

As for the Setjin group of Miyoshi and Sanyou, Miyoshi is another faction.

When these two factions fought, it was enough for Miyoshi Changqing to be devastated, and he could not care about Song Yongxiu, the lord of Diancheng who was far away on the edge of the mountain city.

First use words to lift the worries of the three people, just to make them willing to fight and fight.

Sure enough, Miyoshi Changyi took the bait, she looked at Miyoshi Masayasu and Iwasari Tomotsu, and said.

"Matsunaga Ji, you and I are not outsiders, and I am not hiding anything.

When Miyoshi Yoshiken was alive, he always lamented that Miyoshi's successor had no king's hope, and was afraid that Miyoshi's family would be destroyed in her hands.

We, the loyal retainers of the Miyoshi family, will naturally do our best to prevent this person from ascending to the throne.For the sake of Miyoshi's family business, he will never hesitate to die.

If there is any way, just tell us, we promise not to leak it.It's all done by the three of us and has nothing to do with you. "

Matsunaga Hideo secretly sneered.

Yoshihide Miyoshi is dead, so if you say she said it, just say it. Using the dead as a shield to make excuses is also brilliant.

But it's according to her heart, she still needs to maintain a harmless image in Miyoshi Changqing's heart.

If the house governor knew what she was doing, he would definitely understand her intentions and would definitely kill her first, Song Yongxiu.

Since Miyoshi Changyi is so up-to-date, it's not in vain for me to try my best to plan for them.

She smiled.

"Miyoshi Yoshitsugu's faction seems to be powerful, but in fact there is only one person who is the most troublesome, and that is Mr. Toyasu Ataka."

Miyoshi and the three looked at each other and nodded together.When Matsunaga Hideo opened his mouth, he had something to say.

They found the right person.
