Everyone looked at Kaga Hirano. If the occasion hadn't been a bit serious, they would have already let out exclamations of surprise.
Boss Shimazu is now discussing how to deal with the war threat given to them by Ming Dynasty. This damn fat guy doesn't know what he thinks. He even shows off that he can speak Chinese.
And Shimazu Tachihisa looked at Kaga Hirono with a very unkind look.
Although he did not understand the meaning of this sentence, he understood that it was the language of the Ming Dynasty.
Kaga Hirono is an alternative among samurai.
He used to be very fierce and had excellent swordsmanship. He once served as the general and deputy of the Shimazu clan and fought several battles with the Choshu clan. When Shimazu Tachihisa's father was in power, he wanted to use him more, but because he harmed a After a serious illness that almost killed him, he became more and more obese and began to cherish his life. He didn't like swordsmanship. In fact, his sexual orientation changed. He didn't like young and beautiful women like other famous nobles. He was about to be in his thirties now. He is 3 years old and still has no heir, and the reason why he has no heir is not a secret among the aristocratic circles of Kyushu Island.
After he recovered from his illness, he felt a morbid attachment to the wet nurse who had been taking care of him. Often living together, it is of course impossible for an old woman in her fifties or sixties to give birth to an heir for his general. Moreover, after that, this Kaga yearned for the Ming Dynasty very much, and often said: "The Ming Dynasty has As an old saying goes, he who knows the current affairs is a hero..."
At this time, Kaga was very nervous. Come to think of it, he didn't mean to say these things. He probably said it out of his mouth and uncontrollably said his mantra...
But now that the words had been spoken, Kaga Hirono quickly defended the meaning of his Ming words. He replaced what he just said, that those who understand current affairs are heroes, with the words often said by ancient people of the Ming Dynasty. , Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. Now that the Ming Dynasty has threatened our Kyushu Island, we need to know more about them. I asked myself to go and entertain Zhang Huaizhi and others, and I got the idea of the Ming Dynasty from some insinuations from their mouths. country’s true intentions.
Because the translator was not in the room, and these samurai did not understand what Kaga Hirono said earlier, seeing him nervously explain what he meant, they had no doubts.
Shimazu Tachihisa also agreed with Kaga Hirono to approach Zhang Huaizhi because Shimazu Tachihisa had no other choice.
In Shimazu Tachihisa's view, Kaga Hirono, who was as timid as a mouse at this time, did not have the guts to collude with the Ming Dynasty. What's more, Kaga Domain is located inland of Kyushu Island and is less than a hundred miles away from Hyuga Kingdom of Satsuma Domain. , once he was really found guilty, he would have an excuse to directly send troops to destroy the Kaga family, and take all their land, cities, and villages under his control...
That night, Kaga Hirono rode in a cage and arrived at the residence of the Ming envoy under the protection of three family warriors.
The so-called driving cage is a unique travel tool of the Japanese country. It has a wooden base and a bamboo basket on the base. It was originally carried by two people. However, because Kaga Hirono's weight was a little over the limit, this driving cage was also specially made. It was made from two people. One person carried it, but four people carried it.
Even when the number of people increased to four, the people carrying the cage were all sweating profusely.
After putting down the cage, Kaga Hirano got out of the cage and walked towards the four Ming guards guarding the door.
When he arrived at the door, he paused for a moment, thinking about organizational language.
And several guards were looking at Kaga Hirono intently...
After a moment of pause, Kaga Hirono said: "Masters of the Ming Dynasty, I am the head of the Kaga family. I would like to come and pay homage to Mr. Zhang of the Ming Dynasty. I hope you can help inform me."
"It's so late, our Lord Zhang should be asleep. You can come back tomorrow."
After listening to what the guards said, Kaga Hirono thought for a long time before he understood the meaning. At the moment, he didn't get involved too much. Instead, he bowed his head and signaled to several guards before turning and leaving.
After Kaga Hirono left, he returned to his home in Tsurumaru Castle in Oio Province, because the retainers belonging to Satsuma Domain from all over Kyushu Island, as well as the less powerful daimyo, had to go to Oio Province, Hyuga Province and other places where Satsuma Domain was its home base. Therefore, the Kaga family has its own private residence here. This is also an unspoken rule of the political ecology of Japan. Some powerful daimyo often travel to Edo, Kyoto and other places to serve, while the following belong to the sphere of influence of each feudal clan. The big names in the army should also serve with them, so that these people with soldiers can go out frequently to consume their energy and prevent them from rebelling. ŴŴŴ.BiQuGe.Biz
When the Kaga family was at its most prosperous, it was Kaga Hirono's grandfather who once served as the patriarch of the Satsuma Domain. He was also the closest subordinate to Grandpa Shimazu Tachihisa and was deeply relied on.
Kaga Hirono's father also served as the Daisuke of the Satsuma Domain, and he was also one of the top figures. However, after Shimazu Tachihisa took office, he sent his father to exile. Previously, Kyushu Island was loyal to his father's daimyo, and his retainers were all under the influence. criticized.
Although Kaga Hirono's father died long ago and did not die in the hands of Shimazu Tachihisa, the Kaga family was also hit, left out, and excluded from the inner circle. Coupled with the current governor of the Kaga family, Kaga family He Guangye's external weakness made them even less impressive, and they became transparent people on Kyushu Island.
After Kaga Hirono returned home, he knelt down in front of the dressing mirror very tiredly.
I don’t know why this sturdy man with a slightly scruffy appearance sat in front of the mirror when he returned home.
The nurse in her fifties stepped forward to serve her: "General, you said the wrong thing today..."
Kaga Hirono said softly: "No, I did it on purpose. Now I have a reason to get close to the envoy of the Ming Dynasty."
At this time, Kaga Hirono's voice actually changed slightly...
"General, if you can't remember some things, don't remember them. Now there is no risk of the Kaga family being destroyed, and they have not attacked us again. We can't take risks."
"Hate will never be forgotten. My father and brother all died due to Shimazu Tachihisa's despicable methods. He wanted all of us in the Kaga family to die. This revenge must be avenged. Now the Ming Dynasty has I want to deal with Shimazu. If I don't seize this opportunity, our family's blood feud will never be avenged." As he said this, Kaga Hirono's narrow eyes showed a fierce light, as if he was discussing the matter today. Mo Yang in the hall is completely different.
The wet nurse sighed, then knelt down behind Kaga Hirono, stretched out her hands to touch his hairstyle, and finally, he actually took off Kaga Hirono's Mediterranean hairstyle, yes, took it off.
After taking off the Mediterranean hairstyle, the long hair that was entangled with something like a fishing net appeared in the nanny's sight...
He turned out to be a woman...
