different warring states of japan

Chapter 402
The Noto Hatakeyama family has lost control of the territory like many guardian daimyos in the generation of Hatakeyama Yoshizuna.

The important minister You Zuo Xuguang and Wen Jing Zongzhen seized the power of the family, and as the family governor, all she could control was Nanao City, the home city.

The two power ministers fought, Onjing Zongzhen united six retainers to form the Hatakeyama Seven to discuss housekeeping, and excluded You Zuo Xuguang from the decision-making power, which was considered to have gained the power of the family.

And Hatakeyama Yoshizuna, the family governor, was a spectator from the beginning to the end, and no one took her seriously.

Now the governor of the Shiba family, Yoshigin, was on a mission to Echigo, and when Echchu was blocked, he asked for a boat to go to Echigo to call for reinforcements. At such an urgent time, he never forgot to mention this matter.

Sea trade between Tsuruga Port, Nanao Port and Kasugayama Castle.

This made her imagine that it might not be that simple for the envoy to go to Kanto.

So, can the Notohatake family benefit from this matter?Can she, the puppet governor, take advantage of this matter to regain her family rights?

Onjing Zongzhen left the castle tower angrily, eyes full of fear.

It was not easy for her to gain power in the family, and she kicked You Zuo Xuguang away after paying a lot of benefits in order to win over the retainer group.

Now, the house governor obviously has something to hide from her, but she can't figure out what the problem is?
Although he is already the head of the Noto Hatakeyama family and controls the housework, Nanao Castle is still under the control of the main family.

The Noto Peninsula has many hills and cliffs. Although it faces the sea on three sides, Nanao Bay, where Nanao Castle is located, is the only good port.

Since ancient times, Nanao Bay has conducted maritime trade with the area around Balhae, and it is the wealthiest area in Noto.

She wholeheartedly wanted to take control of Nanao Castle from Yoshizuna Hatakeyama, but because the governor was cautious, she had no chance.

At this time, President Wen Jing secretly made up his mind to take this place by using both soft and hard tactics.

Echizen, the castle tower of Tsuruga Castle.

Asakura Sodi looked at the young girl who was covered in mud, looked tired but had sharp eyes.

This child, who is only a few years old, has already appeared in Yuanfu, she thought distressedly.

The older you are, the more you like children. The younger ones look pleasing to the eye, and those old and cunning warriors are disgusting.

She was thinking about something in her mind and asked casually.

"Because Lord Kenshin was in danger in Yuezhong, so he sent you back to ask for help? And you, you ran [-] miles in less than two days?
Where are the horses?Oh, definitely dead, you're half dead.

I will send an urgent report to Kyoto, you should cultivate well in Tsuruga. "

When Asakura Sodi saw this child, he understood Shiba Yoshigin's thoughts and empathized with him.

Mr. Kenshin's character is indeed good. It's a pity that such a young child died in battle early.

But Pusheng's township didn't appreciate her kindness, and kowtowed to the ground.

"Dare to ask Mr. Zong Di, can you let the messenger take me back to Beijing together."

Asakura Sodi looked at her with interest and said.

"A quick horse of sixty li arrived at the north shore of Pipa Lake, the mountain road was rugged and bumpy immediately.

Afterwards, the ship departed for Kyoto, and it was also a fast ship with wind and manpower working together, arriving at dawn and at night.

Do you still have the strength to follow?Aren't you afraid of sudden death on the way? "

Gamo's Township insisted.

"I implore Mr. Zongdi for your convenience."

Keiji Asakura, who was accompanying him, couldn't see it, and interjected.

"My mother has good intentions, but you child is too ignorant.

Are we still going to lie to you and not send a messenger to the capital? "

Gamo Shixiang really had this worry in his heart, but he couldn't say it out of his mouth.

Which samurai doesn't know about the Asakura family and the Shiba family?

Although Asakura Sodi has a friendly attitude towards Shiba Yoshiyin, it can be seen that people know the face but don't know the heart, and there is always nothing wrong with taking things into their own hands.

She replied respectfully.

"The foreign minister dare not.

I used to serve the lord at the Shiba Mansion in Kyoto, and now Mr. Akechi Mitsuhide in Kyoto knows me.

With me walking together, there are fewer obstacles and explanations, and I can quickly support the lord. "

Asakura Keiji wanted to say more, but was stopped by his mother.

Asakura Zong said with a smile to Gamo Clan Township.

"You are kings and ministers.

Before entering the room, you used your name, you said your surname is Gamo?Minami Omi Gamo's house?Who are you, Gamo Hyun-soo? "

"It's my mother."

"Your family has served the Liujia family for generations. You have worked so hard for the Shiba family, but you have forgotten your mother's embarrassment in Norada?"

Asakura Sodi made a joke, but he saw that Gamo's face was solemn, and his waist, which was too tired to straighten up, straightened up.

"Mr. Zong Di's words are wrong."

"Bold!"

Asakura Keiji scolded, but was suppressed by Asakura Sodi's raised hand.

"Interesting, you little girl is still wet, what reason can you have, let me tell you."

Pu Sheng's hometown kneeled and sat upright, and said sharply.

"When the Wu family becomes an official, the ruler chooses the ministers, and the ministers choose the ruler.

His Royal Highness Shiba is open and aboveboard, and his rewards are fair and just.Uphold righteousness and benevolence.

The lord once said, Ji will not fail me, and I will not fail Ji.

Your Highness treats me with a kindness that is as great as a mountain, and I will repay it with death. This is the principle of the Wu family! "

What he said was reasonable and restrained, and the sound was loud, which made Asakura Zongdi lose his mind for a moment.

After a while, he sighed.

"Mr. Kenshin, how lucky to have such a subordinate."

Gamo's hometown bowed.

"It is my luck to meet the Lord."

Asakura Sodi laughed dumbfounded, and shook his head, this kid is powerful and his future is limitless.

she said softly.

"Then you go with the messenger, Jing Ji, and take her down to make arrangements."

Gamo's Township asks a question.

"Mr. Zong Di, please help me with this matter..."

Asakura Sodi had lost interest in talking, so he waved her hand to let her go down.

Pusheng's native language was halfway through, and he wanted to speak, but he was afraid of offending this person, so he hesitated, gritted his teeth and bowed, and retreated with Asakura Jingji.

Asakura Zongdi had no expression on his face, rubbing his index finger and thumb unconsciously until Asakura Keiki came back, he still had the same posture.

Asakura Keiji said respectfully.

"Mother, I have arranged for them to go."

"Well, very good. Jing Ji, I want to go north to Cheng Gucheng to meet the family governor."

"Mother, the spring plowing has already begun, so it's not appropriate to leave the territory at this time?"

"It's because you're watching.

I will report to the family governor that Kaga Yixiangzong has changed, trying to set off Yixiang Yikui again.

For the stability of Yueqian, I will lead the Northern Expedition, mobilize the army after the spring plowing, and preemptively prevent those nuns from coming to Yueqian to cause trouble. "

Asakura Keiji was taken aback when he heard that, isn't this just following Shiba Yoshiyin's request to contain Ichikomune and relieve the pressure on Etsuchu?
"You are responding to Kenshin's request? Is it worth it?
The governor of the family is already jealous of you. If you go north to seize military power, I am afraid that you will hate you even more. Mother, be careful! "

Asakura Sodi was so spoiled that he reached out to touch Asakura Jingji's head. She was a little bit repelled, but she held back and let her mother caress.

Mouth is not reconciled to say.

"Mother! I'm already an adult! You can't touch your head anymore!"

Asakura Zongdi was stunned, nodded, put his hand down, patted her on the shoulder, and said in a daze.

"Yes, my Jing Ji has grown up, and I am also old."

"Mother.."

"I know my body won't last long.

For decades, he has served as the governor of the family for five generations, and served as the commander of the army for three generations. There is nothing he can't let go of.

The sun rises in the east, the sun sets in the west, and the ups and downs of the samurai family are common occurrences. "

As she spoke, Asakura Jingji became more and more confused, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

"What will happen to the Tsuruga Asakura family after I die? I don't care.

The only thing I can't let go of is you.

Jing Ji, oh Jing Ji, my good boy, what will you do after I die. "

Asakura Keiji's eyes turned red and he said.

"I'll be fine, don't worry."

Chao Cang Zongdi sneered, and looked into the distance, which was the direction of Yicheng Gucheng.

"I'm worried.

Before I was dead, she had already turned you away, perfunctorily.When I'm dead, there's no way for you to survive.

Jing Ji, you are too naive.In this world, cannibalism.Let me, mother, do one last thing for you. "

Asakura Zongdi's eyes became colder, full of disdain.

Asakura Yoshike, you just stuffed the scene into Ono Asakura's house, and you are so proud.

who do you think You Are?Who do you think I am?
Anju Asakura's house, Toba Asakura's house, Beizhuang Asakura's house, who contacted me behind my back, who didn't beg me to come forward and say something fair.

I didn't even bother, I've been patient, but how could you treat my Jing Ji like this!

If the tiger doesn't show its power, I really think I have no temper!
The big wild people controlled by Asakura Jingjing?Hehe, Dunhe hasn't been released for many years, I'm afraid it will be forgotten by everyone.

Forget me, Echizen military god Asakura Sodi.
