Hosokawa Fujitaka was angry because she saw that Tomomitsuhide had bad intentions.
If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy.
Akechi Mitsuhide's method of instigating the general was nothing more than flattery and killing. Although the method was simple, it had an excellent effect on Ashikaga Yoshiteru, a strong-willed general.
If it were a normal shogunate, Hosokawa Fujitaka would certainly be willing to cooperate with Ashikaga Yoshiteru's actions. Suppress the Miyoshi family and eliminate the threat her family poses to Izumi and Kitakawachi territories.
But Akechi Mitsuhide had bad intentions, and Hosokawa Fujitaka did not dare to act rashly. The general had just suppressed the faction of ministers, and he was impatient to continue to expand his power.
Externally, it targets the Miyoshi family, and internally, it targets the local powerful factions of the shogunate. Taking advantage of Yoshihiro Shiba's absence, he used the external threat of the Miyoshi family to attack the Hosokawa Miyoshi family.
Hosokawa Fujitaka was very conflicted.
On the one hand, Ashikaga Yoshiteru's two letters to Hosokawa Motonsune and Mibuchi Fujihide stung her nerves.
Coupled with Hosokawa Fujitaka's unbreakable love for Shiba Yoshigami, she hoped that Ashikaga Yoshiteru would fall into a big trap. It would be better if all parties join forces to suppress it, and it will be difficult to associate with Sibo Yiyin.
On the other hand, Ashikaga Yoshiki's methods were too tough. She was afraid that the Miyoshi family would rebound violently and the territory of the Hosokawa Mibuchi family would become a battlefield.
In the last battle of Konki, the Izumi-Hosokawa family lost almost all of their territory, and they managed to survive until today with the help of Shiba Yoshigan.
Nowadays, Yoshihiro Shiba is no longer here, leaving only Mitsuhide Akechi, the representative of the Shiba family, with ulterior motives.
How dare Hosokawa Fujitaka believe this scheming woman? With her by Ashikaga Yoshiki's side, who knows what accidents might happen.
Most importantly, the general was too impatient. She only saw the internal conflicts in the Mihaoshi family intensifying, and she hurriedly acted for fear of missing the opportunity, but she did not look at the mess behind her.
The shogunate's faction was only suppressed forcefully by Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and they were dissatisfied. Once the general exerts his power to the outside world and relaxes his efforts to suppress the ministers, will there be a recurrence?
Hosokawa Fujitaka was so troubled that he simply bowed his head and remained silent. Ashikaga Yoshiki felt very unhappy when he saw that she still didn't express her stance.
Akechi Mitsuhide came forward to support him on behalf of the Shiba family, but Hosokawa Fujitaka was still pretending to be stupid, and he really didn't understand the rules.
As a result, the review ended in an anticlimactic manner and ended unhappily.
After the meeting, Ashikaga Yoshiteru stayed to speak with Tian Weimasa. After thinking for a long time, the general snorted and said.
"Wada-hime, go to Shoryuji Castle for me and help me visit Lord Hosokawa Motonsune.
She has been resting for some time. If she is healthy, she might as well come out and serve the shogunate. "
Hosokawa Fujitaka's ignorance made Ashikaga Yoshiteru feel uncomfortable.
The Izumi Hosokawa family is the front line of the shogunate's fight against the Miyoshi family. If they cannot get the support of the Izumi Hosokawa family, it will be difficult for Ashikaga Yoshiteru to achieve anything.
Since Hosokawa Fujitaka can't understand the meaning of the Lord, let Hosokawa Motonsune do it.
Initially, Hosokawa Mototsune was brought down by the Izumi Hosokawa retainers group and the Mibuchi family because she opposed the incorporation of the Nasbo family into the Hosokawa Mibuchi system.
At that time, Ashikaga Yoshiki was still concentrating on dealing with the Ise Sadakado and had no time to intervene in the internal power disputes among local powerful factions, so he watched her being driven to Shoryuji Castle to rest.
Now, Ashikaga Yoshiteru, who has taken over the shogunate, feels that he is powerful, and Hosokawa Fujitaka is not easy to use, so he should support Hosokawa Motonsune to do things.
The Hosokawa Mibuchi family is not small in power, but they are not the opponents of Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
Akechi Mitsuhide has expressed his support for the general to deal with the Miyoshi family, and Hosokawa Fujitaka, who is opposed to it, can only face the general's revenge alone.
The Izumi Hosokawa retainers were definitely not willing to confront the general, and Ashikaga Yoshiteru was very confident about Hosokawa Motonsune's comeback.
Even if Hosokawa Fujitaka cannot be expelled from the center of power, as long as Hosokawa Motonsune can get back some of his power, it will be enough for people to understand that the majesty of the general cannot be provoked.
Wada Weizheng felt something was wrong. She also felt that the general's pace was too fast and his methods were too strong. But when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them out. She kowtowed to the ground and let out a cry of joy.
Wada Weimasa was born in Minami-Omi, and was chosen for diplomatic service during the period when Rokkaku Sadeyori and the shogunate were on good terms with each other.
She used to be a Rokkaku retainer, but now she is a minister. As the two sides turned against each other, her situation became increasingly embarrassing. As the general's power grew, his temper became more and more impatient, and he refused to listen to Xu Tuzhi's suggestions.
Wada Weizheng didn't want to offend the general and make his situation worse, so he just kept his head down and did things.
Ashikaga Yoshiki nodded with a smile, very optimistic about this coup of hers, and she continued.
"Once you meet Mr. Hosokawa Motonsune, you don't have to worry about the follow-up, I will send someone to do it.
The spring plowing season has arrived, are you ready to go back to your territory? "
Wada Weimasa nodded and said.
"The general is wise, I am really worried and want to go back and have a look."
Ashikaga Yoshiki smiled.
“Spring plowing is the most important thing, and it’s reassuring to go back and take a look.
Since you are leaving, please do something for me. To Wangyue and Shanzhong Jia, I would like to congratulate everyone and express my concern.
I heard that the Koga clan is having a hard time these days, and the Rokkaku retainers group is targeting them. "
Wada Weimasa was stunned. He didn't expect that Ashikaga Yoshiki was provoking the Miyoshi family, but on the other hand, he would interfere in the internal affairs of the Rokkaku family.
Is this hand stretched too long?
The Wada family's territory is in Minami-Omi Koga County, and they are from a prominent family in the county. She does have some friendship with the Koga clan, and it is easy to send a message to Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
But the political implications of this matter are too heavy, and it will inevitably irritate the Rokkaku family.
The Mochizuki family in Koka County is a branch of the Mochizuki family, one of the three Shino clans. The Yamanaka family is the local leader of the Suzuka Mountains, and they are all leaders among the Koka clan.
This time there was a commotion in Guanyin Temple, and Rokkaku and his daughter fled from the city. Among the Jiahe people who showed their kindness, these two families jumped the highest.
As a result, the Rokkaku retainers responded quickly and reached an agreement with their lord, allowing the Rokkaku mother and daughter to return to Guanyin Temple City.
The Jiahe people's attempt to steal the chicken failed to lose the rice, but instead aroused the vigilance of the Rokkaku retainers group. The retainers group, which was originally dissatisfied with the semi-independent forces of Koka County, began to demand Koka County's military and food service obligations.
Although Rokkaku Yoshiharu, the family governor, returned to Kannonji Castle, his power was greatly restricted because of the Rokkaku clan's shikime, and he could no longer speak for the Koga clan.
Life between the Mochizuki family and the Yamanaka family was extremely difficult. At this time, Ashikaga Yoshiteru reached out to show his kindness, and his intention to provoke was too obvious.
Wada Weimasa looked worriedly at Ashikaga Yoshiteru, who was full of confidence. There were some words she wanted to persuade, but she knew that the general could no longer listen.
The general suppresses the ministers and reaches out to the local powerful faction. There are provocations everywhere, including the Mihaoshi family and the Rokkaku family. Having enemies on all sides like this would probably be bad.
She sighed inwardly and said to the general.
"Master Gongfang's wishes, I will bring them to the Koga warriors."
But in the end, Wada Weimasa still didn't say any words of advice because she was afraid.
The general is no longer the weak ruler he was before, and cannot tolerate anyone questioning her decision or provoking her majesty.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru said a few words of comfort and then asked Wada Weimasa to go out to do some work. Watching her leaving, he was very proud of his plan.
