Mitsuhide Akechi was the diplomatic agent of the Shiba family in Kyoto, and he had the authority to contact Ninagawa and Takamasa Hatakeyama to discuss plans.
She was favored by the general and took up the post of Kyoto garrison on the side of the shogunate, and she was able to speak in Nijo Castle.
She came forward to help mediate, and Mibuchi Fujihide was good at provoking this matter, so that the matter would not get out of hand.
Hosokawa Fujitaka wanted to make a big deal smaller, but Mibuchi Fujihide's adventurous advance was the good opportunity Akechi Mitsuhide had been waiting for.
In her plan, Hosokawa Fujitaka was an important part of the plan to occupy the magpie nest.
It was she who personally pushed Hosokawa Fujitaka into the abyss of being obsessed with Shiba Yiyin. Because of his obsession with Yiyin, Hosokawa Fujitaka was on the verge of losing the right to inherit the family business.
She was originally determined to be the head of the Hosokawa Mibuchi family, but she was challenged by Mibuchi Fujihide.
Akechi Mitsuhide must help Hosokawa Fujitaka regain a foothold and control the Hosokawa Mibuchi family, so that he can successfully pass the Hato Occupy Magpie Nest and allow Shiba Yoshigan to capture the Izumi Hosokawa family in one fell swoop.
Mitsuhide Akechi could not accept the challenge launched by Fujihide Mibuchi against Fujitaka Hosokawa. There is no place for Fujihide Mibuchi in her future plan, so she must help Fujitaka Hosokawa gain a foothold.
But the premise of all this is to get rid of Hosokawa Fujitaka's arrogance first, let her understand her situation, take the initiative to let go of her reserve, and bow to herself.
Now, she got what she wanted.
Hosokawa Fujitaka feels extremely humiliated, and Akechi Mitsuhide, her former friend, has become a lingering nightmare in her heart. But in the face of the danger of overturning her family business, she cannot tolerate showing weakness.
Akechi Mitsuhide chuckled.
“Futaka, you are too polite.
Yu Gong, the Shiba family and the Hosokawa Mibuchi family are close allies, so naturally they will not stand idly by.
Personally, with our close friendship, I can't see you sinking like this. "
There was something in Akechi Mitsuhide's words. Hosokawa Fujitaka narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent, listening to Akechi Mitsuhide continue.
"The two sisters, Mibuchi Hosokawa, have a deep love for each other. They have supported each other and advanced and retreated together over the years. Their love is more admirable than Jin Jian.
But Mibuchi Fujihide doesn't know what's good and what's good. According to me, it's time for the Hosokawa Mibuchi family to make a new plan. Fujitaka you will be in charge, so that you won't go astray. "
Hosokawa Fujitaka stared at Akechi Mitsuhide's elegant mask-like smile and said coldly.
"What do you mean?"
Akechi Mitsuhide sighed.
"Don't get me wrong, I mean no harm.
I just think that although the Hosokawa Mibuchi family is as close as one family, they are ultimately under two family names, and the situation of the two family governors is a special case.
Mibuchi Fujiei and you already have a rift. In the future, when the two family governors pass away, she may not be willing to accept you. Are you going to help her wipe her butt again and again, or are the two families breaking up and going their separate ways?
Rather than being passive in the future, it is better to bring the Mibuchi family under control as soon as possible, concentrate the power of the two families under the name of the Izumi-Hosokawa family, and let you be the helmsman, which will save you a lot of trouble in the future.
Therefore, Mibuchi Fujihide's crisis this time may not be entirely a bad thing. In crisis, there is opportunity. If this matter can be used to confirm your status, it can be considered a great thing.
Do you think this is true? "
Hosokawa Fujitaka looked at Akechi Mitsuhide's seemingly sincere smile, and his heart was filled with emotions.
What is Akechi Mitsuhide planning? She actually spoke wildly, hoping that the Izumi-Hosokawa family would take over the Sanbuchi family's territory, which was simply shocking.
The integration of the Hosokawa and Mibuchi families was based on the Izumi-Hosokawa family being the powerful faction outside, and the Mibuchi family being the shogunate internally, and cooperating internally and externally to join the shogunate.
But today's shogunate is in obvious decline and has become more and more useless. The benefits are not there, but the smell is caused a lot, and the foundation of the integration of Hosokawa and Mibuchi has been shaken.
And Mibuchi Fujihide's sense of competition has added a haze of chaos to the clearly planned future of the two family governors of Hosokawa Mibuchi.
This also gave Hosokawa Fujitaka a sense of crisis. This seemingly gentle sister in the past seemed unwilling to continue to be wronged by him.
For the sake of family stability, it is not an unacceptable option for the Izumi-Hosokawa family to take sole control and marginalize the Mibuchi family.
The Sanyuan family's foundation was weak. Back then, Sibo Yiyin generously gave away the land in Beihanoi. The Sanyuan family did not have enough Ji warriors to control this fertile land.
It was the Izumi Hosokawa family who had always sent retainers to help the Mibuchi family manage this land, so the Izumi Hosokawa family had the confidence to sideline the Mibuchi family.
But the problem is that Mitsuhide Akechi is not a thing, and the poisonous man's advice Hosokawa Fujitaka does not dare to be used.
Hosokawa Fujitaka said coldly.
"Hosokawa Mibuchi's family is in the same spirit, so don't try to provoke discord."
Akechi Mitsuhide smiled and said.
"The Hosokawa clan has been destroyed. As a close branch of the Izumi Hosokawa clan, if they can occupy the land of Kitakawachi, they can control 250,000 koku.
Even if you want to join the direct branch of the clan that has no heir, you can still talk about it. By that time, you, the legitimate daughter of the Hosokawa clan, will have the same status as the legitimate son of the Shiba clan of Tsutaden. "
When Fujitaka Hosokawa heard Akechi Mitsuhide mention Shiba Yoshigan, his vigilance rose to the highest level, and he sneered repeatedly.
"Akechi Mitsuhide, don't talk nonsense.
I came here today to ask for help from the Shiba family and to seek complete protection for the recklessness of my unlucky sister Mibuchi Fujihide.
But you are talking nonsense here, trying to turn my sisters against each other. What are your intentions? Are you trying to stir up my ambition by bringing him out of Jindo Hall?
I have learned hard about the mistakes I made these days, and only then did I realize that I had been fooled by you.
Yes, I have admiration for Jinduoden, but the Wu family puts family business first, and the love between their children is not worth mentioning.
It was you who stirred up my admiration for Jinduodian again and again, and even brought up your scandals to make me jealous, making it difficult for me to let go of this feeling.
Today, you are still pretending to imply that I need to take over the Sanbuchi family to be worthy of the Tsuta Palace.
You evil bitch! You really want the Hosokawa Mibuchi family to fall apart. What good will this do to you? "
Akechi Mitsuhide looked at Hosokawa Fujitaka in surprise, and saw that her eyes were clear and he couldn't help but laugh.
"Okay, this looks like the very wise Hosokawa Fujitaka back then, but not like the stupid young man who has been trapped in love these past few years and is really easy to fool."
Hosokawa Fujitaka's eyes twitched and he looked at Akechi Mitsuhide without saying a word.
Akechi Mitsuhide sighed and said.
"But you really misunderstood me, I really mean it for you.
You and I have known each other for many years. I, a wandering wanderer, have followed the Sibo family all the way, and I can be regarded as a high-ranking official in the party, with a high position of authority.
But what about you? You were the heir to the Izumi-Hosokawa family back then, so you had some say in the family. To this day, he is still an heir with a precarious position, but he can barely speak.
To put it bluntly, you can barely catch up with me. It would be a good thing to be able to extinguish the wishful thinking of getting married to Tsutado-den.
If one day in the future, I have a fate with Jinduoden, I can get what I want. I also want to offer you a glass of wine to thank you for your humility. "
Hosokawa Fujitaka, who had just said that he wanted to put aside his children's personal relationship, was aroused by a few words from Akechi Mitsuhide. His eyes widened with anger, his teeth chattered, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.
"You are the one who is wishful thinking, how can you be worthy of him!"
Akechi Mitsuhide picked up a strand of her hair with the index finger of her right hand and slowly circled it in a circle. The hair was spinning on her finger and she said quietly.
"How do you know I can't? Have you forgotten that I have slept with your beloved Tsudoden several times?"
Hosokawa Fujitaka stood up, pointed at Akechi Mitsuhide's nose and cursed.
"Shameless villain! I'm discussing business with you, but you humiliate me and Jindo Hall everywhere, what's your intention!
I. . I. . I. . you. . "
Akechi Mitsuhide sighed.
"I'm just telling the truth. I can be considered a contributor to the Spo family's development to its current prosperity.
As time goes by after the passing of the ancestors, no matter how noble and loyal Tsudo-den is, he must always consider the continuation of the Shiba family's inheritance. If he returns home and chooses the right person to give birth to an offspring, I may not have a chance.
Although I, Akechi Mitsuhide, am not talented, I can be considered to be dignified in appearance, wise and courageous, and I have had a close relationship with Tsutado-don. Why can't I think about this possibility? "
Hosokawa Fujitaka was so excited when he heard this, this guy really dared to think and speak, he couldn't help but sneered.
"Yes! A well-dressed beast! He dares to covet Jindo Hall!
Is this what a Shiba family official should have in mind? Do you still have any sense of loyalty? "
Akechi Mitsuhide glanced at the mad Hosokawa Fujitaka and said cheerfully.
“Public is public, private is private.
I am loyal to the Shiba family. You see, when you talk about the Hosokawa Mibuchi family, I will definitely worry about the Shiba family and intercede for our allies. This is the duty entrusted to me by Tsudado-don.
But in private, I ask myself, I love you, I long to marry into Sibo's family, if the girl is unmarried and the boy is unmarried, what's wrong with that?
You and I met Tsudoden together. Over the years, I have been very aware of your admiration for him, and I am willing to compete fairly with you.
But you yourself are not up to par, you gave up on your own initiative, and you still blame me for having ulterior motives and coveting your Majesty. Haha, is this a bit too bullying, making you look too cowardly and shameless?
I kindly advise you to take charge of the Hosokawa Mibuchi family, further develop the Izumi-Hosokawa family business, and achieve the name of the clan, so that it can be equal to the status of my family, Tsutado-den. Is this called a bad intention?
I'm just telling you honestly, the Shiba family is in the shogunate and needs the help of a powerful Izumi-Hosokawa family, that's all.
If you have the ability to make progress, there is still some possibility for my family, Jinduodian, to be with you. If you give up on yourself, that's your own business.
As an old friend, this is all I have to say. You can take care of yourself. "
After finishing speaking, Akechi Mitsuhide poured a cup of tea, picked it up and said.
"The Shiba family will not sit idly by when it comes to the Hosokawa Mibuchi family, please don't worry.
Just leave, don't send it away. "
Hosokawa Fujitaka felt aggrieved by her rebuke, but had no way to vent.
The strategy of occupying the magpie's nest was shocking to the world. Except for Shiba Yigen and Akechi Mitsuhide, no third person knew about it.
Hosokawa Fujitaka accuses Akechi Mitsuhide of teasing his feelings for Yoshigan, but Akechi Mitsuhide can refuse to admit it.
Because logically speaking, as long as Yoshigan does not have a harem, Hosokawa Fujitaka's accusations are untenable.
Akechi Mitsuhide herself loves Yoshigan and wants to marry him, so why would she secretly tease Hosokawa Fujitaka so that she would not forget her feelings for Shiba Yoshigan.
Female competition for mates is a zero-sum game. It would be nice if Akechi Mitsuhide doesn't cause trouble for Hosokawa Fujitaka, and he encourages her to not forget Shiba Yoshigan. Is this reasonable?
It doesn't make sense, the two are love rivals.
Therefore, Hosokawa Fujitaka's accusation cannot be justified, unless she knows about the plan to seize the magpie nest and knows about Shiba Yiyin's grand strategy of planting seeds all over the world.
Otherwise, the idea that a man can only marry one woman has become deeply ingrained in this world of female supremacy.
Hosokawa Fujitaka never imagined that Mitsuhide Akechi would devise a cuckold's plan to seize the magpie's nest.
She never imagined that the holy and noble Sibo Yiyin would agree to this plan of having one man serving several wives.
Unexpectedly, Hosokawa Fujitaka was naturally involved by Akechi Mitsuhide, and the accusation turned into slander, which made her appear to be a villain.
Akechi Mitsuhide served tea to see off the guests and agreed to help Hosokawa Miyuki and his family negotiate the terms. Hosokawa Fujitaka's goal has been achieved, and in theory he can leave with peace of mind.
But the love she had extinguished for Shiba Yigen was once again aroused by Akechi Mitsuhide and revived.
Although he was wary of Akechi Mitsuhide's bad intentions, Hosokawa Fujitaka couldn't help but develop the ambition to kick out Mibuchi Fujihide and monopolize the resources of Hosokawa Mibuchi's family.
If the Izumi-Hosokawa family can dominate the family and annex most of the power of the Mibuchi family, then Hosokawa Fujitakama can try to go to the shogunate to seek a position in the Hosokawa clan.
By then, she and Yoshihiro Shiba will have the same status, so the possibility of a perfect match is greater than that of Mitsuhide Akechi, right?
Even Akechi Mitsuhide dared to hide his delusion of getting married, while Hosokawa Fujitaka secretly laughed at how beautiful her idea was and began to refuse to admit defeat.
After she left, Akechi Mitsuhide showed a mocking smile.
Yoshigan Shiba is like a carrot hanging in front of the stupid donkey Hosokawa Fujitaka, he can pull her up every time, and it works every time.
Akechi Mitsuhide shook his head. Sometimes he felt strange. He always felt that Hosokawa Fujitaka was so smart. Why did he get fooled every time?
Maybe Shiba Yiyin is her Achilles heel. The ancients said that sex makes the mind faint, maybe this is the reason.
Akechi Mitsuhide stirred up Hosokawa Fujitaka's ambition. With her ability, Mibuchi Fujihide will definitely not be her opponent. The future of the Hosokawa Mibuchi family is destined to be controlled by Hosokawa Fujitaka.
Only by taking control of the dominant Izumi Hosokawa family can Hosokawa Fujitaka be worthy of becoming a member of Hato Zhan Magpie's Nest, and worthy of Yoshihiro to capture her.
However, this is all for the future.
Now, Akechi Mitsuhide had to think carefully about how to use Mibuchi Fujihide's adventure to make arrangements for the future.
Behind Matsunagahide is Oda Nobunaga. This is Oda Nobunaga's attempt to trip up Ashikaga Yoshiaki and overthrow the three guardians of Settsu that Ashikaga Yoshiaki has contributed to.
A fool like Mitsuhide Mibuchi waded into this muddy water. No wonder Hosokawa Fujitaka was so anxious that he didn't even care about his grudge against Akechi Mitsuhide and came to ask for help in person.
Shiba Yoshigan is the leader of the local powerful faction. Ashikaga and Oda are facing each other, but they first use people from the local powerful faction to test and carry the thunder. It is too unkind.
Akechi Mitsuhide must come forward to speak for local powerful factions while making the water even more muddy so that he can fish in troubled waters.
