Chapter 375 Contradictions
South Omi, Liujiao Family Governor's City Guanyin Temple City, Tianshou Pavilion.

Yoshiharu Rokkaku looked at the tough retainer in front of him, and was at a loss.

"Master Goto, the mobilization after spring plowing is a strategy that has been set by the family. If you insist on changing it now, it may be inappropriate."

The majestic old woman in front of her is Goto Xianfeng, the important minister of the Liujiao family.

She shook her head and said firmly.

"Your Highness, please restart the discussion, and then discuss the Northern Expedition to Qianjing.

My family has been fighting all year round since Mr. Ding Lai. The territories of each family have long been exhausted, and there are turmoil among the many people in the country.

The Asai family has already reacted, the news must have leaked, and the opportunity for my family and Mino Isshiki's family to join forces in the raid has already been missed.

If it is activated forcibly, it will be another meaningless consumption.

The Asai family is backed by the allies of the Asakura family, but behind my family is the Shiba family who is eyeing it, and the shogunate will definitely side with the Asai family to suppress my family.

Knowingly committing a crime, the wise man will not take it, and I hope the Lord will think twice. "

Kentoyo Goto kowtowed to the ground, Yoshiharu Rokkaku remained silent.

After a while, she said.

"Goto-sama, please go back first, I'll think about it later."

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed across Goto Xianfeng's downcast eyes, but he reluctantly saluted and left.

As soon as she left, a person with a gloomy face appeared behind the scenes in the conference hall. It was Yizhi's mother Liujia Yixian.

She snorted coldly and said.

"Goto Xianfeng is getting more and more arrogant."

Liujiao Yizhi replied.

"Mother, what Mr. Goto said is not unreasonable."

Liujiao Yixian's pupils shrank, he didn't expect his daughter to refute him.

Because Norada lost the battle, she was forced to abdicate as an excuse. Who knew that Kento Goto was aggressive and had no intention of stopping at all.

And his daughter Liujia Yizhi, who controls Liujiao's family, seems to be getting more and more disobedient.

She felt a little regretful, if she had known today, she shouldn't have backed down at that time, the Liujiao family's strength was still there, and the retainers didn't dare to go too far.

Now step back, step by step, the retainers of Goto's line are getting tougher because of her concession.

Inside the Liujiao family, after Yizhi became the governor of the family, he also had his own political demands, which instead dispersed the power of the main family.

As one goes up and down, her life becomes more and more difficult.

Liujiao Yixian shook his head, shaking off the despondent thoughts in his mind, and explained to his daughter.

"The strategy of the Northern Expedition to the Asai family cannot be shaken, this is a war planned by you and me.

Since you took over as Family Governor, you haven't achieved any single-handed results, and the retainers have doubts.

If this matter is terminated, you will be regarded as a weak and deceitful lord, whose prestige will be severely damaged, so you must not change it.

Goto Kentoyo wants to weaken the authority of the head family and win over the hesitant retainers to support her in housekeeping. "

Yoshiharu Rokkaku nodded.

Although she was dissatisfied with her mother's delay in letting go of power after she abdicated, the two had the same interests in dealing with the Goto family.

Liujiao Yixian sneered and continued.

"Kentoyo Goto lived in Rokkaku's house, Miyoshi Chokei lived in Hosokawa's house, Yusa Nobuyoshi lived in Hatakeyama's house.

The decline of the Gaomen, which family did not start with the loss of authority and the vassals seizing the power of the family.

Once Kento Goto gets the support of his retainers and takes charge of all matters inside and outside the family, the power of the head of the family will inevitably be weakened.

When my family is insignificant, it is time for her Goto family to take over Minami Omi and become the lord of a country. "

The trouble faced by the Liujiao family is a problem that all daimyos will encounter.

The master's family was weakened by the defeat, and the attitude of the retainers became increasingly tough. Once a situation of weak masters and strong ministers formed, the family business would sooner or later be handed over.

If you protect the daimyo, you are still under the protection of the shogunate, and your retainers are afraid of the shogunate's reaction, and you will be restrained in doing things, such as Takamasa Hatakeyama.

But the Liujiao family has always refused to accept the shogunate and is independent.Civil turmoil in the family changed, and it was too late for the general to applaud, so how could he support her family.

Besides, the prestige of the shogunate has fallen, how much status is left in the guardian system to bluff people?

The Ashikaga family can't protect themselves. In the troubled times, which family is not panic, afraid of their own demise, shameless to see their ancestors.

Liujiao Yizhi pondered for a while and asked.

"But my family's plans have already been known to the Asai family, and with precautions, the results may not satisfy the retainers.

If something goes wrong, the dissatisfied retainer group will still move closer to Kento Goto, and the situation of the main family still cannot be improved. "

Liujiao Yixian didn't think so and said.

"Today is different.

When I was in power, my family had already occupied the nine prefectures of Omi, and the shogunate was also an ally, so it was determined to destroy the Asai family and rule Omi.

Who knew he would meet Kenshin, alas. . "

Liujiao Yixian's heart ached, and Si Yiyin almost became her demon.

Every few days, I would dream of going back to Norada, and the wound he cut was painful and dripping with cold sweat.Gritting his teeth, he was even more afraid.

She shook her head, collected her thoughts and continued.

"This time my family is not trying to destroy the Asai family, but just plotting the three counties of Kita Omi that were taken away by the Asai family.

Mino Isshiki's family sent troops, and the army must go to Sakata County when entering the Omi Kingdom. The rest of the mountain roads are rugged and not enough to support the logistics, so it is difficult to provide for the army.

Sakata County is one of the three old counties of the Asai family, and there is no room for loss. Asai Nagamasa must deal with it with all his strength.

And until the Asai family is destroyed, the Asakura family will never send troops to help.

What her family counted on was the continuous business routes in Kita Omi, as long as the Asai family was still there, her family would not waste their own strength to fulfill Asai Nagamasa.

The Asai family is weaker, so it may be beneficial to the two alliances.

Not to mention the Shiba family, and they will not be sincere to the Asai family.

You have to remember that Omi is the confidant of the world, and if you get it, you can get the world.

Neither the Asakura family nor the Shiba family will allow the Asai family to become big. What they hope is that our two families will continue to fight and neither can destroy the other. "

Liujiao Yizhi stroked his train of thought and said.

"You mean to let Mino Isshiki's family gnaw on Kita Omi's tough bones.

My family's Northern Expedition plotted the land of the three counties that was taken away by the Asai family? "

Liujiao Yixian also denied it.

"impossible.

If my family takes down the three counties, Omi will restore the unbalanced situation of my family's nine counties and Asai's three counties.

The Asakura family may not respond, but the Shiba family will definitely intervene.

The shogunate and the Shiba family will never allow my family to rise again, and it will never let go.

Therefore, the only thing my family can plan is Aichi County, so that it will not trigger a strong reaction from the Shiba family.

After all, Inukami County has the territory of the Shiba family. Once they enter Inukami County, they will inevitably lose control. We must try our best to avoid territorial disputes with the Shiba family.

With the land of a county, first recruit the buyer's group, suppress Goto Xianfeng, and then slowly map it. "

Rokkaku Yoshiharu nodded, agreeing with his mother's strategy.

Liujiao Yixian smiled and thought he was proud of himself, but he didn't know that his daughter's heart was already cold.

Liujiao Yizhi came to power just now, and he vowed to attack the Asai family in the north and take back the three counties for the family.

If things are done hastily, Goto Xianfeng will be suppressed, and the prestige of her governor will also be damaged, so it will not be easy.

Only Liujiao Yixian benefited from this matter. She led the process of the Northern Expedition, and the right to distribute the land of a county was naturally in her hands.

She is proud of herself, but it is Rokkaku Yoshiharu and Goto Kentoyo who suffer the loss. It is really easy to calculate.

Liujiao Yizhi saw through his mother's intentions, but he didn't have the strength to turn his face, so he could only pretend not to know.

Under the calm, a different mind has already begun.
