The two of them reached a tacit agreement and did not mention the matter of shunting away the Maeda family's warriors. They only talked about threats from the direction of the Matsudaira family.
Maeda Toshiie is extremely capable, and she will quickly win over the Maeda family and the Hime Samurai who are close to the samurai family to enrich Owari Shiba's leadership.
Most importantly, she did it right.
Shiba Yoshigan has granted her full authority over Owari Shiba, and everything she does is for the Shiba family.
The more diligent you are, the more you should be encouraged.
Maeda Rihisa's identity is embarrassing. She is managed as an agent of Maeda's interests, and belongs to the interests' Okezama 1,500 koku territory.
Now that Maeda's territory of interest has been transferred to the near future, she is no longer qualified to dictate to Owari Shiba.
Therefore, Maeda Riku decided to go to Arakko Castle to meet his mother.
On the grounds of the prosperity of Konki and the future at the feet of the general, he won over the Maeda family and sent the family's Hime samurai to Konki.
———
Huangzi City.
Maeda Toshimasa was very embarrassed when faced with his eldest daughter's request.
Lijiu didn't know that what moved faster than her was the letters from the fourth daughter Li's family.
Neither Riku nor the Toshi family want to quarrel with each other, so their mother, Toshi Masaru, the governor of the Maeda family, is the battlefield for them to compete.
Before the arrival of his eldest daughter, Li Chang had read the letters written by his four daughters.
The fourth daughter of the Li family is very smart. She knows how strong the recent temptation is for the martial arts families in the world.
If she just opposes from her own standpoint, even if she convinces her mother, she will not be able to convince the Maeda Hime Warriors.
It is the dream of every Hime warrior to go to the nearest development, and the same is true for the Maeda family's Hime warriors.
Even the governor's objection is useless. The interests are so attractive that for the sake of the stability of the family, Li Chang has to be cautious.
But Maeda Toshiie took a different approach and warned Toshiro on two points, telling her to think carefully.
First, Maeda is not the biological daughter of the eldest daughter Riku, but the concubine of the Takikawa family.
The Wu family cares more about bloodline than family name.
Because bloodline is the interest of the main family, but the name of the family is the interest of all the Hime Warriors who make a living under this name.
When the master's family's bloodline is extinct, the retainers will choose to adopt an adopted daughter from outside and inherit the family business.
This is not in the interests of the master, because the adopted daughter is not related to her by blood.
But it is in the interest of the retainers group, because with the master, the Ji warriors in the family can continue to use the family name as a sign to unite and make a living.
Therefore, the higher the rank of the martial family, the more urgent the retainer group is to protect it.
Maeda's interests were unknown before, and the Takigawa family would naturally choose to ignore them if they did not benefit from it.
Now that she was already the great name of Wanshi and the beloved general of Shiba family governor Kenshin Gong, the situation was different.
If the Maeda family fully supports the recent development of Maeda interests, what if she chooses to abandon the Maeda family and return to the Takigawa family in the future?
Although the probability is very small, in troubled times and the Wu family has no ethics, no one can be 100% sure.
Both the recent Maeda family and the Owari Maeda family now manage huge territories of more than 10,000 koku.
Li Chang was proud of his children's abilities, but also troubled.
Because the Ji warriors accumulated by the Maeda family in Arakko City over the years were not enough to divide the profits between the two families.
Even if there is only one family, the former Tajie warriors are the foundation, and other samurai families who are close to Owari and are familiar with each other work together to provide enough warriors.
The Takigawa family was a wealthy Shimowari family, and its prestige among samurai families was not inferior to that of the Maeda family.
This time, the Owarihime samurai who has been transported recently will definitely not be able to avoid the Takigawa family.
After being reminded by Maeda Toshiie, Toshiro had a little more scruples in his heart.
Secondly, Toshiie explained Oda Nobunaga's views on the Shiba family to her mother, which increased her worries.
Oda Nobunaga's kindness to the Shiba family was only for political gain. This closeness is short-lived and unsustainable.
If the Maeda family completely turns to the near future, what will happen to the 6,000 koku territory and family members left behind in Aroko Castle?
If something goes wrong in the future, will it be left to Oda Nobunaga to vent his anger?
The Shiba family is powerful, and Oda Nobunaga may not dare to take action against Owari Shiba.
But in order to warn the subordinates of the Wu family, it is still okay to find someone to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Looking around, the Maeda family fully supports the Konge Shiba family, who is a good chicken.
The two points raised by Maeda Toshiie deeply disturbed his mother, Toshiro. Although these are all speculations, my family's fortune is huge and I don't dare to gamble.
This is also the result that the Lee family hopes for.
She could not stop the Maeda family's samurai warriors from yearning for Kinkyo, but she could use the risk-sharing proposal to divert some of the Maeda family's samurai warriors to the Hazama territory.
Dividing the profit and youth into half satisfies mother Li Chang's worries about future risks and gives the family a way out.
It's not like he did everything right and made the eldest daughter Riku angry. From then on, the Maeda family and the Owari Maeda family were severed, retaining the blood relationship.
Her method is not the best, but it is the most suitable for both parties to step down.
Lijiu arrived a step late, and his mother had been convinced by the Li family's letters. In desperation, he could only agree to Lijia's plan.
Just like the last time the Oda family had a civil war, the Toshi family convinced their mother, this time she won again.
Two Ji warriors who are both highly skilled in martial arts and smart, have been tricked by their sister many times for a long time. It’s not the defeat in resourcefulness, but the defeat in the way of doing things.
When the Oda family was in civil strife, the Maeda family was the Hayashi family's main force. As a subordinate samurai family, there was no problem for Riku to contribute to the main family.
This time, interests have developed in recent years. As a mother, she has no problem running for her daughter.
The Li family was able to convince their mother Li Chang both times because they used the future of the Maeda family as bait.
The proposal to spread risks and not put all eggs in one basket was supported by Li Chang.
Lijiu always stands in the right perspective, does what she thinks is right, and implements her own principles.
However, the Li family can see the concerns of the superiors, cut into their concerns, and use their interests to convince themselves.
This is certainly the case for Maeda Toshimasa, Oda Nobunaga, and Matsudaira Motoyasu.
Therefore, Riku couldn't deal with this sister, so he could only leave Owari in anger.
The Maeda family was now divided into two.
Half supports the Konge Maeda family, and the other half supports the Owari Maeda family, moving forward together.
Among the four counties of Shimo-Owari, the Maeda family was originally a wealthy family in Kaitong County. The two counties of Kaitong and Haixi were in the west, close to the northern part of Ise Province.
After passing Kitaise is Iga Country, the territory of the Shiba family. Therefore, Maeda Toshihisa contacted the familiar martial arts families in these two counties.
Some of the young warriors of the Maeda family formed the core of the Shimowari-hime Samurai Order, which has been sending personnel to the Maeda family in recent years.
Okehazama is located in the mountainous area southeast of Owari.
Based on the remaining young men in the family, Maeda Toshiie recruited close samurai families from the two eastern counties of Owari to enrich Owari Shiba's territory.
The actions of the two Maeda sisters were so powerful that they could not hide from Oda Nobunaga's spy.
She should have been angry at the wanton behavior of her subordinates, the Wu family, but she re-read the battle report of Shiba Yiyin's recent battle and remained silent.
He got up and went back to the dormitory, pushing Mr. Nong to the ground who didn't understand why. It was also a wanton act.
Oda Nobunaga, who had never known regret, felt a strange sadness in his heart for the first time in his life.
What kind of monster was he letting go in the first place?
