Ashikaga Yoshiaki may not understand the key, but Ise Sakyo is a veteran player of the shogunate, and she will not be led by a junior like Hosokawa Fujitaka.
First, use the carrot of Hosokawa-Shiba marriage to dangle Hosokawa Fujitaka, the toad who wants to eat swan meat.
Then she used the information she revealed to spread it out and tell Shiba Yoshigan that the Hosokawa Mibuchi family was no longer reliable, blocking her way out.
Ise Sadao said solemnly.
"Fujitaka, as an elder, I would like to advise you.
Mr. Gongfang is kind-hearted and does not want the Siba family to be extinct, so he is willing to help you make a good match with Oitai and make it possible for you.
But you can't always harbor illusions and think that the Great Otai will give in easily. Who is Oitaisuo? As wise and powerful as he is, how can he be a weak and compromising person?
If you want him to nod and agree to marry you, we must cooperate sincerely to make him accept our kindness.
Do you understand? "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki nodded frequently.
Hosokawa Fujitaka has a small thought. He wants to use himself to help her get her wish, but he is unwilling to really stand on the opposite side of Shiba Yigen.
How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Ise Sadaka forced Hosokawa Fujitaka to be unable to turn back, which was exactly what Ashikaga Yoshiaki wanted.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki said to Hosokawa Fujitaka and Yan Yuese.
"Fuji Takahime, if you hesitate, this matter will probably fall by the wayside.
The Odaisho will not think of you well, but will blame the Hosokawa Mibuchi family. "
Hosokawa Fujitaka gritted his teeth and felt sick in his heart when he saw the two of them looking like they were sincerely planning for her. If he is calculating them, why aren't they calculating themselves?
They don't care whether Hosokawa Fujitaka can marry Shiba Yoshigan. What they cared about was driving Yoshigan Shiba out of the center of the shogunate and depriving the Ashikaga Shogun family of their status.
Hosokawa Fujitaka thought about jumping left and right, first marrying Yoshigan Shiba, then cutting off with Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and going back to join Hosokawa Shiba. She thinks too beautifully, and others are not fools.
Now that things have come to this, she has no choice but to keep going.
Hosokawa Fujitaka whispered.
"Mr. Gongfang and Mr. Ise have given me thoughtful consideration, and I can't thank you enough."
Seeing her lowering her head, Ise Sada was secretly happy.
Yoshiyoshi Shiba's prestige is at its peak, and it is not easy to strip him of his status as a direct descendant of the Genji family in Kawachi.
The Izumi-Hosokawa family and the restored Shiba family both had a three-manager family structure.
Yoshihiro Shiba remarried Fujitaka Hosokawa, which was not an insult to his status, and he had an explanation to the outside world. It was indeed a feasible and good solution.
Ise Sadakyo didn't want to fall out with Hosokawa Fujitaka, but this girl prided herself on being extremely intelligent, and if she wanted to take advantage of her, he had to make her understand the truth that only hard work would lead to reward.
When Ashikaga Yoshiaki saw Hosokawa Fujitaka's resignation, he also smiled and came out to calm down and said.
"Three good people go to Luo to kill the king, which is treason.
The Odaisho turned a blind eye to this, but stared at the Oda family who assisted me in going to Luo. It must be a huge disappointment.
Mr. Ise is not targeting you Fuji Takahime. She is indeed targeted and will be of great benefit to our plan. "
Ise Sakyo bowed and thanked the general and said.
"The Oda family is a two-million-koku daimyo. His Majesty Oda is loyal to the emperor. His army went to Luoqiu without committing any crimes, which impressed all the shogunate families.
Da Yutai arbitrarily denounced Zhongliang, but turned a blind eye to the evil deeds of the Sanhao family who killed their ancestors, and it was inevitable that they would be criticized.
I'm just following the trend and giving everyone a heads up. This is for everyone's sake.
The earlier they knew about the mistakes of the Otaisuo, the different families would not be misled by him and make big mistakes that chilled the hearts of loyal ministers. "
Although Hosokawa Fujitaka didn't understand why Shiba Yoshigan was so wary of Oda Nobunaga, he really wanted to vomit when he heard that the old woman Ise Sadakyu spoke so much about loyalty and justice.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru was killed by the Ise Sadaect in collusion with the Miyoshi family. Now it's better. She stood on the moral high ground and pointed fingers at Shiba Yoshigan. It was so shameless.
But things are like this. Criticizing the dead tiger of the Three Good Family is politically correct. It is beneficial and harmless, and it is easy to gain political capital.
Therefore, everyone rushed to shout slogans.
The Oda family's size of two million koku daimyo occupies the land of Minami Omi and is entrenched beside the shogunate's couch. Oda Nobunaga is a ferocious real tiger, who dares to seek bad luck on her?
Can't the shogunate warriors see this huge threat? Even if Ashikaga Yoshiaki is a fool, would the Ise Sadato sect be cunning and cunning?
But everyone just pretended not to see it, and no one was willing to pierce this layer of window paper.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki wants to monopolize the title of direct descendant of Kawachi Genji, Ise Sakyo wants to absolve himself of the sin of treason, and Hosokawa Fujitaka wants to marry Shiba Yoshigan.
They are all smart people and know how to fight for their own benefits. Which one is the fool? Spo Yiyin.
Yoshigan Shiba really wanted to unite all the shogunate families and expel the powerful Oda Nobunaga. He never thought of imitating Ashikaga Yoshiteru in centralizing power and depriving various families of the shogunate of their interests.
But he thought he was considering the long-term interests of the shogunate families, but he didn't expect these bastards to use his kindness to deal with him.
The son is a wolf in Zhongshan, and he will run rampant when he succeeds.
It wasn't that Yiyin was careless, but that the shogunate's samurai family was selfish and ignorant of good and evil, far beyond his imagination.
———
After the ceremony, the night was already deep.
Hosokawa Fujitaka didn't stay long before he hurriedly said goodbye and left. She felt bitter and had to go back and find a way to deceive Hosokawa Mototsune's mother.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki looked at the closed sliding door and asked.
"Will she regret it?"
Ise Sakyo said with a successful smile.
"Don't worry, Mr. Gongfang, I won't give her a chance to regret it. What happened today is just an appetizer, the fun is yet to come.
On the contrary, Ninagawa himself mentioned today that the Odaisho will not let me go. You have succeeded to the throne, and I am worried that the Grand Imperial Council will write a letter demanding severe punishment on me. "
Ise Sakyo pretended to be uneasy and looked at Ashikaga Yoshiaki.
Seeing her worried look, Ashikaga Yoshiaki felt proud and said with a wave of his hand.
"Don't worry, I will suppress all the things written by Da Yutai that are not good for you.
But you also know that his prestige is too high. Even if I find excuses to suppress it, I won’t be able to suppress it for long.
so. . "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki only spoke half of the words and looked at Ise Sakyo with piercing eyes.
Ise Sadaoka kowtowed to the ground and said.
"Don't worry, Lord Gongfang. You won't have to wait too long. The Grand Office will soon have no energy to take care of me."
Ashikaga Yoshiaki raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Why did Mr. Ise say this? Oh Odai is so brave and decisive, what can make him so anxious that he has no time to care?"
Ise Sadakyu had a gloomy look on his face and sneered.
"Master Gongfang, I said today is just an appetizer, and Hosokawa Fujitaka has no chance to go back on my word. Because starting from tomorrow, more bizarre rumors will spread in Beijing.
Ootaisho was born in Owari Province. When the Shiba clan was wiped out, he was left alone. But he just killed the enemy who destroyed the family and took back the ancestral land. He is truly an unparalleled man. "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki frowned and said.
"Mr. Ise, there are no outsiders here now, why do you have to say these useless things."
Seeing that Ashikaga Yoshiaki didn't want to hear it, Ise Sadakya smiled and said.
"Lord Gongfang, I am not deliberately praising the Great Imperial Palace, I am just stating the facts.
Do you know what kind of rumors are most likely to be half-believed? That is nine truths and one falsehood, which makes people want to believe it involuntarily. "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki looked at Ise Sakyo, her smile was meaningful and chilling.
"you mean?"
Ise Sadakyu said coldly.
"No matter how powerful Da Yutai is, how can he take revenge alone? Someone must help him prepare weapons and provide military strength.
But he knew everything and had nothing. What conditions can be offered for others to help him? Yes, his peerless beauty is truly breathtaking.
These people who are spreading rumors and causing trouble are really audacious. Da Yutai is the widow of the ancestors, how can she be allowed to slander her chastity. "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki took a breath.
"Are you going to ruin his reputation?"
The quiet path of Ise Sadao.
“It’s not me, it’s the rumors that will ruin the reputation of Odaisho.
Starting from scratch is easier said than done. How many Ji warriors can't do it, so how can their self-esteem convince them that a man can do it?
Women are superior to men, which is unforgettable. No matter how glorious the Grand Imperial Palace is in the world, it cannot match the folk traditions that have existed for thousands of years.
There are always some big feminists who cannot see the heroism of Odaisho and will only speculate on his achievements with malicious intent.
Maybe it's a physical borrowing of troops, maybe it's a beauty scheme. The people at the bottom are rude and direct. I don’t know where these rumors came from. They are really filthy and unbearable.
You ask, how should a widow like Otaisho deal with the overwhelming filthy words? "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki said thoughtfully.
"The matter between men and women is always getting darker and darker. The more explanations are given, the more powerful the rumors spread.
When it comes to chastity, it's best to deal with it coldly. We thanked guests behind closed doors and waited for the rumors to fade away. "
Ise Sadaoka nodded.
"Odaisho has done so much for the shogunate, how can we just watch him being slandered?
The shogunate must send people everywhere to arrest those who are talking nonsense and bring justice to the Odai. "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki said knowingly.
"The harder you suppress public opinion, the faster it spreads. It is better to defend people's mouths than to guard against rivers. In the end, it will inevitably become more evil as it spreads, and the trouble will be out of control."
Ise Sadakya pretended to sigh and couldn't help laughing.
"If this happens, it will inevitably affect the reputation of our ancestors, the Grand Imperial Palace, and even the Ashikaga Shogun family."
Ashikaga Yoshiaki sighed and said.
"Yes, what should we do?
The family of the Ashikaga Shoguns is the hope of the world, and their reputation cannot be tarnished. Someone has to step up and sacrifice themselves for the Ashikaga family. "
The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding each other.
"My lord, why don't you ask Hosokawa Fujitaka to come forward, express your love for Odaisho, and fulfill her infatuation."
"This...isn't this not good? Da Yutai is the widow of an earlier generation, so it would be a bit unpleasant to remarry her."
"Lord Gongfang, you can't think like that.
Everyone inside and outside the shogunate knew that the Shiba family was the family business revived by Odaisho and was his lifeblood.
Because the ancestors passed away, the Ootaisuo must live alone? What about the subsequent succession of the Shiba family?
The Odaisho is a great benefactor to the shogunate, and we cannot let him bleed and shed tears. It's better to help him and let him remarry. "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Ise Sadakyu became more and more animated as they talked, with smiles on their faces.
The three major forces of the shogunate are the Ashikaga Shogun family, the shogunate, and local powerful factions.
The Ashikaga Shogun family has been controlled by Ashikaga Yoshiaki. Among the ministers, Ninagawa himself had doubts, and Ise Sada added fuel to the fire.
The local powerful faction is the foundation of Shiba Yoshiun, but the most powerful Hosokawa Mibuchi family will inevitably become the opposite of Shiba Yoshiun because Hosokawa Fujitaka stepped forward to express his love.
This is equivalent to the entire shogunate uniting to put pressure on Shiba Yoshigan and besieging him alone.
In terms of strategy, Ise Sadakyo also pressed forward step by step, link by link.
First, he used rumors to expose Yoshigan Shiba's thoughts on dealing with Oda Nobunaga, alerting the shogunate and subconsciously alienating him.
Then he used the slanderous name to put Sibo Yiyin into chaos. Finally, Hosokawa Fujitaka came forward to express his love.
In killing people and killing people, except for not using weapons, Shiba Yiyin was forced into a corner.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki said worriedly.
"What should we do if the Great Imperial Guard raises an army?"
Ise Sadakya smiled.
“Everyone knows that Odaisho’s intention to deal with the Oda family is well known.
In the past few days, Shiba leader has thought of going to Luo, and first he will fight with the Oda family of Fushimi Castle.
Konge Shiba, with a mobilization force of 200,000 koku, faced off against the Oda family with a mobilization force of 2 million koku. I'm also curious, is the Ashikaga War God really capable of fighting one against ten?
If the Odaisho could really defeat ten times the enemy, why would he unite with the various shogunate families and dare not reveal his hostility to the Oda family? "
Ashikaga Yoshiaki smiled and nodded, indeed.
Shiba Yoshigage's current strength was barely 200,000 koku. If he didn't contact all parties, he wouldn't have the confidence to confront Oda Nobunaga, who had two million koku.
This has nothing to do with personal ability, it is really a big difference in size.
Nowadays, Yoshigami Shiba can no longer find a suitable ally to fight against the Oda family.
Within the shogunate, his ideas were revealed in advance. Of course, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, Ise Sadakya and others would be in trouble at every turn to prevent him from succeeding.
Several families outside the shogunate have powerful vassals, Rokkaku is destroyed, the Asai family and the Oda family are married, and the Miyoshi family runs away with their tail between their legs. Who can Yoshigan Shiba turn to for help?
He was not familiar with the Hatano family in Tamba, and the Hosokawa-Mibuchi family had two or five young men like Hosokawa Fujitaka who were obstructing them, and they followed Ashikaga Yoshiaki to coerce the Shiba Yi Bank.
Looking around, Sibo Yiyin couldn't find any help. Politically, it is retreating step by step, and militarily, it is unable to turn its back. What else can I do?
He could only compromise, and it was not up to him to decide what the conditions would be.
Ashikaga Yoshiaki calmed down and smiled.
"Ise-sama has no plans left."
Ise Sadakyo bowed respectfully and said.
"It's all thanks to the wisdom of Lord Gongfang. I am willing to do your best."
Ashikaga Yoshiaki laughed, as if he had seen the moment when Shiba Yoshigan failed.
But in reality, is it really what she and Ise Sadaoka want and wish for?
Ise Sakyo thought that what he was spreading was a rumor. But little did she know that she had inadvertently revealed the truth.
Yoshigan Shiba really slept with Oda Nobunaga, not just once, but twice.
Oda Nobunaga's feelings for Shiba Yoshigan are also very subtle.
The insiders in the Owari Takeshi family were all silent about this, wishing they had never known about it.
