For the Wu family, the most important thing is territory.
Whether it is the direct leader of the guardian family or the knowledge and conduct of the retainers, nothing can warm the hearts of the Wu family more than the peace of mind.
Because the salary of being an official is only temporary wealth, and the salary stops after death and cannot be passed on to future generations of the family.
But knowledge and practice can be inherited from generation to generation. As long as you have not committed any serious crime of disobedience, your master will not like you even if you are displeased. At most, we can find excuses to reduce seals and change regulations, so that future generations will at least have something to eat.
Of course, there are also lords who do ruthless things.
However, those who disrespectfully usurp a retainer's territory rarely end well.
Hatakeyama Takamasa just wanted to take away the iron cannon craftsmanship of the Kii people, which caused the country to be kicked out of the Kii country for generations.
If the retainer's territory is touched, they will surely betray their relatives and die a miserable death.
Territory represents population, land, and hereditary inheritance, which are the basis for the survival of the Wu family.
Most of the Ji warriors come from well-known official families and work hard all their lives, but they only have a few dozen shi of knowledge and their income is far less than their salary.
But if anyone is willing to exchange knowledge and deeds, some Wu families will rush to kill her with their salary.
Therefore, Hidetoshi Akechimitsu was certain that the Ninagawa family would accept Yoshihiro Shiba's kindness.
At this time, the Ninagawa family governor and the young master looked at each other and smiled bitterly, not knowing what to do.
This time Ise Sakyo invaded and forced the general to negotiate.
Although her family kept silent, they were actually on the side of the Ise family, simply because the Tanba Kingdom had been taken over by the Miyoshi family.
Most of the shogunate's territories were in mountainous kingdoms, and they were worried that too much peasant and soldier transportation would affect the autumn harvest in the territory.
The Ninagawa family was even worse. Her family's territory was in the Tanba Kingdom, with the base of their home city, Hokineji Castle, as their main control.
Tanba Kingdom protects the Hatano family and is very deferential to the shogunate, so naturally it will not make things difficult for the Ninagawa family in the country.
But now that the Miyoshi family has surrendered to the Hatano family, no one can say whether the Ninagawa family's territory will be safe after the war.
Therefore, Ninagawa himself secretly sided with Ise Sakyo.
Only Miyoshi's family succeeded in going to Luo, and Miyoshi Changqing won the post of acting shogunate.
Only then will she pay attention to the demands of the ministers and exchange some benefits for the ministers' silence.
Once Sanhao Changqing loses and the military retreats, there will definitely be problems within the Sanhao family.
At this time, the territory swallowed must be distributed to the samurai families under Miyoshi who participated in the war, in exchange for their continued support of the Miyoshi family.
Therefore, in order to preserve the Ninagawa family territory in Tanba country, Ninagawa himself acquiesced in the Ise Sakyo's step-by-step pressure on the general.
If not for the sudden rise of Sibo Yiyin, Lord Gongfang would have agreed to negotiate at this time.
It's useless to talk about it now. Ise Sakyo was frightened by Shiba Yigen and didn't dare to mention the negotiation again.
Wherever the Ninagawa family goes, they can only leave it to fate.
There is a newspaper near the flag outside the door, Sibo Yiyin is visiting.
Ninagawa himself looked uncertain and talked to his daughter Ninagawa himself.
"Could it be that Prince Shiba knew about my family's stance of supporting the Ise family and came to intimidate him?"
Ninagawa was feeling aggrieved.
"This son is too arrogant! Although my Ninagawa family is not as noble as his Shiba family, I have been an important minister of the shogunate for generations.
If he's aggressive, I'm, I'm. . "
After hesitating for a long time, Ninagawa-chan still couldn't come up with any harsh words.
Situations are stronger than people.
The Wu family is all realistic. In order to survive, any dignity or integrity can be put aside.
As long as the benefits are sufficient, it is common to beg for mercy and act small.
The Shiba family was powerful, and the Ninagawa family didn't want to offend Yoshigan Shiba at all.
If Sibo Yiyin keeps forcing him, is he really going to be tough and seek to destroy the family?
Of course it was impossible, but the Ninagawa family was unwilling to bow their heads, because bowing their heads meant that their territory would not be protected.
The Wu family that has lost its territory is like an old dog that has lost its claws-->>
, anyone can be kicked and reduced to a lost dog.
Seeing his daughter's hesitation, Ninagawa himself sighed. No matter what, please come in first and then talk.
"Ninagawa-sama, Gigin is polite."
"Your Majesty Shiba, please take a seat."
Both parties smiled and greeted each other, and the host and guest sat separately and exchanged greetings. After a few words, Yiyin turned the topic to business.
"I heard that Miyoshi Yoshiken captured Hatano Harumichi and took the opportunity to subjugate the Hatano family.
I think back then, Hatano Uetsuchi, a generation of British rulers, settled in Tamba and built Yakami Castle, which is also famous in recent times.
Who would have thought that this generation of family governor, a tiger bitch, is so unwise.
He failed to defend the fortified city and attacked repeatedly, but he became a prisoner. "
Yoshigage's seemingly unintentional sigh resonated with Ninagawa himself.
"That's right. The Hatano family fortune will most likely be destroyed in the hands of this person."
She really hated Hatano Harumichi.
If this person hadn't been so self-righteous that he attacked and was caught, the Hatano family would have been in an invincible position.
She wasn't just talking nonsense, the Hatano family was probably really going to be in chaos.
In order to save the governor, the Hatano family suppressed the interests of the retainers and bowed to the Miyoshi family.
The Miyoshi family was the enemy of the Wu family. They invaded various countries and annexed large areas of the local Wu family's territory. Such actions have already aroused the vigilance of everyone.
Now that the Hatano family has lured the wolf into the house, even if the master's Yagami Castle is preserved after the war, the retainers' territory will be eroded and ceded to the Miyoshi meritorious officials.
The governor's recklessness caused serious damage to the interests of the retainer group. It would be strange if the Hatano family did not have civil strife after the war.
It's just that Ninagawa didn't care to watch the Hatano family's jokes. She couldn't save her own family, so she didn't have the leisure to do so.
Seeing her sad face gradually showing, Yiyin knew that the heat was almost over and said.
"The general is wise and valiant. This time the Sanhao family will surely come home defeated, but I am a little worried.
Tanba Country is located to the north of Yamashiro Country, and the Miyoshi family has already occupied this country.
If another rebellion breaks out next time and they attack Kyoto from the direction of Tamba, the shogunate may not be able to resist. "
Ninagawa Makoto nodded, that was indeed the case.
Tamba is mountainous, and Yamashiro Country is a basin. Attacking the basin from the hills and using the high ground to defeat the low ground is a matter of taking advantage. If the decision is made quickly and decisively, the shogunate may not be able to react.
Seeing her deep in thought, Yiyin continued to add fuel to the fire.
"It would be great if there was a samurai clan loyal to the shogunate in Tamba to provide early warning."
After saying that, he took a deep look at Ninagawa Makoyo.
Ninagawa Makoto was stunned for a moment, carefully savoring Shiba Yoshigan's meaning. His body couldn't help but tremble a few times, and he tensed up and sat upright, leaning forward.
"What Shiba said makes sense, I'm afraid the Miyoshi family won't agree."
Yiyin sneered.
"The decline of Sanhao's family has become apparent, and subsequent negotiations will not always go as her family wishes, getting everything they ask for.
Even if Mihao Changqing doesn't recognize her, I will make her sober. "
Ninagawa Himashi heard two meanings from Yoshigami's words.
First, Bank of China is willing to negotiate.
Secondly, Tanba country needs the presence of the shogunate to warn the north and prevent the Miyoshi family from having the opportunity to raid Kyoto.
Why did Yoshihiro Shiba bring up negotiations in front of him and the samurai family loyal to the shogunate in Tamba?
In terms of loyalty to the shogunate, of course it is my Ninagawa family!
My position as acting official of the hereditary government office is very loyal to the Ashikaga family and Lord Kokata!
If you choose my family to keep an eye on the Miyoshi family's movements, the Ninagawa family's territory will definitely be preserved!
Ninagawa's eyes shone brightly, and he suddenly felt a deep hatred for Ise Sakyo, who was close to the Miyoshi family.
How could there be such a scum among the ministers! A disloyal general, eating everything inside and outside!
I, Ninagawa himself, am incompatible with such scum!
