different warring states of japan

40 Allegiance
Yiyin felt that he had come up with a brilliant idea, but it shocked Li Jiuyi's mother and daughter to a crisp.

"Lord Yoshigin, this joke is not funny. I also know a little about Mount Ozama. It is said to be a mountain, but it is actually one of the hills in southern Owari.

The land is not as fertile as near Qingzhou City, but it is not bad. The 1500 shi between the barrels is enough for two entire villages. "

Li Jiu muttered for a long time, and said with a wry smile.

"I'm not joking, I sealed 1500 stones from Mount Ozama to Yili, then Yield would have enough knowledge to separate the Maeda family.

After the separation, you can completely help her manage the territory as a beneficiary adoptive mother, and you don't have to leave your hometown to go to Kyoto. "

Yiyin replied seriously to Li Jiu, "You can't joke at this time, the mother and daughter are in a state of anxiety, talking nonsense will capsize the boat of friendship."

"But, is it really appropriate for you to distribute half of the territory to the interests? What's more, I was chased and released by Mr. Nobunaga, and Mr. Nobunaga will be very unhappy if he knows this."

Li Jiu was not indifferent, but felt that the pie was too big, and he couldn't believe it was smashed, and his tone was full of uncertainty.

Of course, Yiyin knew that he had paid a lot, but in his opinion, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and it was worth doing.

First of all, once Yili, a dead-headed person, decides to leave with Lijiu, no one can stop her.It's a headache for this guy to mess up, but Yiyin really can't do without her.

The family's military assets are all under the control of interests, and now the family's footlights are all destroyed, and everything is left to be done.Without the familiarity of the interests, how can the army be reorganized in a short period of time.Even if someone new is found, it is difficult to determine loyalty.

Yili is a traditional samurai who advocates loyalty. Judging from Maeda Toshihisa's words and deeds, they are all ji samurai warriors of the giri type. Once they are loyal, they are trustworthy.

Secondly, the expanded territory needs manpower to clean up.

Yang Naiyukino is a two-and-a-half dick at home, and once Li Yi leaves, she loses even a follower, who will actually digest the territory into Sibo's house.

And if the land is entrusted to Li, then Li Jiu, as a mother, will definitely take good care of this branch of the family.

So for the Shibo family of the main family, although the annual income of 600 shi is missing, the loyal Ji samurai of the Maeda family will become an important pillar of the family's military, and they are reluctant to let their children be trapped by wolves.

Thirdly, the surprise attack on Tozazama was a thorn in Yoshihiro's heart.

He just heard that such a big event happened in the Warring States Period, but he didn't know when and under what circumstances.

If the Shiba family directly controlled Mount Ozama, then Yukino Hino would have to go to check frequently.

Just those two half-bad guys, it's okay to calculate and scare people, but what if there is a real war?It's not about relying on the reliable Wu family to hold the line.

It is not the loss of the family to seal the barrel to the interests, even if something really happens.Of course, this kind of thinking is very sorry for the benefit, at worst, it is better to give up the territory and save the lives of Maeda's mother and daughter.

In the end, Riku was chased by Nobunaga.No matter how you operate, Nobunaga will be angry if he finds out.

But this time Yiyin has made a great contribution and just received a reward, even if he is angry, he can't suppress it openly, otherwise it would be a slap in the face.

Taking advantage of Nobunaga's inconvenient opportunity to turn his face, Yoshigin is going to take this opportunity to show the autonomy of the Shiba family.

Nobunaga's words to Yoshiyin in the review were too frivolous before, and all the samurai regarded Yoshiyin as Nobunaga's ban, which was actually very detrimental to Yoshiyin.

He has done so many things, risking his life to attack people, just to make the Shiba family a recognized samurai family, so that he has a certain right to choose and be independent.

If everyone misunderstood him as Nobunaga's concubine and was treated differently by all the samurai, Yi Yin would not be happy in his heart.

At the beginning, Bayuqian was prosperous for a while, but in the end he fell with the Kiso family.

He Yiyin wanted to hang around Nobunaga's thigh, but he didn't want to live and die with her.

When it's time to jump off the ship, I will definitely jump. It's too sad to be too close to even have a chance to instigate rebellion.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter could be done, so Yiyin cheered up and started acting.

"I and Li Yi are called monarchs and ministers, but we are actually siblings. Without her to take me to practice martial arts and accompany me into battle, I would have died a long time ago."

Saying that, Yiyin looked at Yiyi gratefully.

"I swear a big oath of hardships and hardships, and I am determined to revive the Shiba family. I dare not slack off because of my interests. Now that she is in trouble, how can I just sit idly by!"

Saying that, Yi Yin divided the small amount of sake in the pot into two wine glasses.Take a cup for yourself, and give a cup to benefit.

"Today, you and I add two to one to five, and the monarch and ministers share the same salary. Come and drink this cup."

"Master Yiyin."

Li Yi cried, thanking her tears and being unable to speak.He took the wine glass with trembling hands and spilled half of it outside.Riku sighed and reached out to help her hold the cup.

"Yi, your life is good. You have met such a lord. If you do something wrong with Sipo's family and the lord in the future, I will clean up the house with my own hands. You have to know yourself!"

As he spoke, he looked stern.

Li Yi kept nodding, and drank these two glasses of wine with Yi Yin with tears in his eyes.

"Li, you go out and help me get some more pots of sake and some food, I'm hungry."

Li Yi nodded, feeling better and hungry, obediently opened the door and went out to find the proprietress.

After she closed the door and walked away, Li Jiu turned around and bowed to Yiyin.

"Master Shiba's great kindness, I will never forget it for a long time."

"Master Maeda, you don't have to be polite, this is what you deserve."

Yiyin returned a salute.

"Benefits, her contribution is not worth 1500 shi Zhixing. This is the kindness of my lord, and I know it well."

Riku said seriously.

"Your Excellency must also know that Li Yi is my adopted daughter. She was born in the Takikawa family, and her mother is a concubine from Takikawa's side line. She is loyal and courageous, and has good martial arts.

There were frequent wars in the early days, and her mother and I fought side by side many times and became good friends.Unfortunately. . "

As he spoke, he picked up the jug, which was empty, and she drank most of it, and smiled awkwardly.continued.

"Her mother was born in a humble family, and she was just a low-ranking Ji warrior with a salary before she died. When the salary stops after death, the family's livelihood has problems.

Her father couldn't survive with her, but was ridiculed and driven out when she begged to the master's house, and later died of hunger and cold.

I happened to visit at that time and saw Li Yi who was dying of starvation, so I took her home and adopted her. "

Yiyin didn't know that Yiyi had such a childhood past.Most of the low-ranking Ji warriors were born as concubines, and they had to find a way out when they reached the age, and most of them got jobs and salary, and they were gone when they died.

In this world, it is said that the common people are difficult, but in fact, the low-level Ji warriors are not much better.In the Middle Ages with limited food production, coupled with the frequent wars in the samurai society, hell on earth can be seen everywhere.

"The character of interest has something to do with this experience, right?"

Yi Yin replied, and Riku nodded.

"Since she was a child, she has been very disgusted with the idea of ​​rewarding public favors. She once said stupid things that she would never become an official. She is simple and simple. Although she is skilled in martial arts, I have always been worried about her future.

I used to be the young head of the Maeda family, I was not married, and she was the only adopted daughter.The family was worried about inheritance and made things difficult for her. The only one who had a good relationship was the fourth sister Lijia.now. .Ugh. . "

Riku looked at Yiyin gratefully.

"Before I knew she had become an official, I was happy for her, but I couldn't help worrying. She values ​​friendship and tends to go to extremes. If she meets an inappropriate master... oh...

Now, I am completely at ease, Shiba-sama is a good master worthy of entrustment.Warriors value knowledge and action more than life, and even I envy the luck of profit if an adult can do this.

I, Maeda Toshihisa, branched off into Siba, and swore to be loyal to the master family to the death.The lord is benevolent and righteous, and the warrior should be loyal and brave in return. "

"Actually...it's not bad..."

Yiyin smiled dryly.He is different from the warriors in this world, he doesn't care about knowledge and practice at all, he just wants to live this life safely.

As for the knowledge and practice left to future generations?I don't care about the flood after I die.
