Todo Torakao happily resigned, Yoshigami comforted her a few words and let her go first, leaving Akechi Mitsuhide behind.
When she respectfully left the room and closed the door, Yoshigan frowned and looked at Akechi Mitsuhide.
"Akechi Mitsuhide, should you give me an explanation?"
Yoshigan considers himself a benevolent master, but Akechi Mitsuhide's unauthorized actions have touched his bottom line.
The Teng Tang people gave him a lot of help this time. It can be said that they paved the way for him with their blood and lives.
He is a grateful person. Even though he knows that both parties get what they need, he still has difficulty understanding this transaction.
Is it fair to the Teng Hall people to pay the price of more than 70 Ji Samurai casualties for a mere name? So, he felt guilty.
Although it seems that Todo Tora came to ask for help, Mitsuhide Akechi is really so clean, and he is not stupid.
If such a vicious strategist doesn't put a tight spell on her, there's no telling what tricks he will come up with next time.
"I don't know what kind of explanation the Lord needs Mitsuhide to give."
Shiba Yiyin looked at Akechi Mitsuhide coldly.
She was wearing a plain kimono today, her slender frame was tightly wrapped, leaving only her swan-like head and neck, which was smooth and white.
The face without makeup has delicate features and always has a slight smile. But Yiyin couldn't see any smile in her bright eyes.
This is a hard-hearted woman who will do whatever it takes to achieve her goals.
"I don't care what you want to do, but remember it. You must have a bottom line as a human being. If you play too many conspiracies, you will easily die."
Although he was angry, Yiyin still couldn't say anything harsh. We are all comrades who have gone through difficulties together. He is soft-hearted and can only scare her.
Akechi Mitsuhide seemed to see through this and shook his head in disappointment.
"Lord, people like me have a long life. And if you continue to be so naive, you will really die."
With that said, she walked over to Yiyin and sat down, with the distance between them less than an arm's length. She looked into Yiyin's eyes seriously and said.
"Lord, you yourself said that this is a troubled world. Give up your kindness as a husband. I really don't want to see you die."
At this point, her beautiful eyes were filled with tears and her words were sobbing.
Yiyin was heartbroken by her sweet breath, and looking at her tender and weeping appearance, he struggled back a little and turned his head away from her gaze.
"Forget it this time, don't do this next time."
She nodded and said softly.
"My subordinate understands."
Then resigned.
After walking out of Yiyin's room, Akechi Mitsuhide stretched, looked back at the sliding door, and murmured to himself.
"It's so easy to talk to, but it doesn't give me any sense of accomplishment."
In the next few days, Omi Country entered the summer harvest time. The situation has stabilized and is no longer as tense as before.
After Asai Nagamasa conquered the samurai family of the three counties, he occupied Taiwei City, which was left behind by the Rokkaku family after they voluntarily withdrew.
This castle, together with Sawayama Castle, is the most important defensive fulcrum of Kitaomi, and it is the harvest that the Asai family dreams of.
However, for the Rokkaku family of Minami Omi, it was extremely uneconomical to continue to control Taiwei City after losing the three counties, as it would be a waste of money and food.
The Rokkaku family gave up their conquest of Kitanomi and completely withdrew from the northern lands held by Rokkaku Sadayori.
Asai Nagamasa occupied Taiwei City and held a feast to show off his wisdom and prowess. She came to power because her retainers were dissatisfied with her mother Jiuzheng, which was somewhat disgraceful.
At this time, the Rokkaku family was repulsed, the three northern Omi counties returned to the Asai family, and Taio Castle fell without a fight.
Even in my best dreams, there is no such wonderful outcome, so naturally I have to show off my bravery to offset the shortcomings of forcing my mother to abdicate.
Holding the wine glass, he pretended to be heroic and raised it to drink with the ministers. The fifteen-year-old face has not yet fully grown, and has a bit of baby fat.
But the retainers ignored her slightly funny look and sang her praises and drank heavily.
The minds of martial artists are easy to understand. As long as you can lead them to open up new territories and gain wealth as a courtesy to the public. You are the female leader of the generation, and the whole family must be submissive.
But if you lose in successive battles, you will lose your profits. The benevolent lord is just a coward, not worthy of respect, and he may have had the idea of subduing his superiors.
The master understands this truth, and so do the retainers. Therefore, on the surface, life is lived in harmony between the king and his ministers, but underneath it is like walking on thin ice, and no one feels safe.
After the banquet, several important ministers were invited to the review hall. Asai Nagamasa had already put on a hot towel and sat down.
She didn't drink much and stayed awake. Because Tsunayomi Kaiboku had just worriedly invited her to discuss the matter after the banquet, although she didn't know what it was about, she also paid attention to the fact that four important members of the family were left behind.
Akao Kiyosuna and Isono Emasa came together to salute their lord. It's all good news these days, and they are living a comfortable life as military generals.
This battle knocked the Rokkaku family out of Kitaomi, and they were in a good mood no matter what.
In addition, Tsunayika Uboku and Sasaki Aguchi came in with solemn expressions, making Asai Nagamasa unable to help but become nervous.
"Master Haibei, what happened?"
After bowing to the lord who asked the question, Tsunahime Kaiboku said.
"There is news from Sawayama Castle that the Todo clan sent their land and population to Shiba Gozen."
Send in? I haven’t heard this word in years. Those sitting here are all high-level martial artists, so they naturally know the origin of this term.
Akao Kiyosuna said nonchalantly.
"Just send it in. The Wu families of these three counties were only nominal vassals, and they did not intend to provide taxes or military rations.
The Todos in Inugami County are no more than the Manshi Territory, so even if they are sent to Shiba Gozen, who cares about us?
On the other hand, Mr. Isono, I heard that you have been trying to win over the Todo people recently, but it seems that your efforts have been in vain. "
Akao Kiyosuna turned around and laughed at Isono Masaru, Isono Masaru didn't care that he had to show his hands.
"Toraka Todo and her daughter are two good Hime warriors, and I admire them a bit. Since she is willing to join Shiba Gozen, then go ahead and I won't force you."
Asai Nagamasa actually thought the same as the two of them, and didn't understand what there was to worry about.
"Master Haibei, it's just an irrelevant trivial matter. As for us sitting here and talking seriously?"
Haibeizang personally glanced at Aguan Zhenzheng, who nodded and came out to speak.
"The shogunate has contacted my family in the past few days, and His Highness has allowed me to take charge of the affairs of the shogunate.
Because my family actively moved closer and was willing to provide the shogunate with military power to fight against the Miyoshi family, the shogunate was very satisfied and intended to appoint His Highness as the Acting Guardian of Kitaomi. "
"good!"
Akao Kiyosuna and Isono Emasa looked happy, while Asai Nagamasa, who was sitting in the chair, pretended to be serious but couldn't help but blush.
After the Asai family Katsukami killed the Kyogoku family guarded by Kitaomi, the shogunate never paid attention to the samurai families such as Kitaomi. The three generations of the Asai family lacked status in their business and have been trembling with fear.
Now with the endorsement of the shogunate, the Asai family's rule in Kitaomi was justified and stable. As the governor of the Asai family, she should be the most excited.
"This is a good thing, but what does it have to do with the Todo Hall members sending it to the Shiba Imperial Palace?"
Asai Nagamasa asked, and Kaiboku Tsuna personally replied.
"The newly conquered martial families of the three counties are only nominally surrendered. With the title, my family can naturally conquer them one by one and gain real territory.
But now everyone in the Todo Hall has sent it to the front. If my family is forced to send it to Shiba Gozen, what should my family do? "
