"Auntie, please call me by my name."
The wet nurse who was wiping Kaga Hirono's body froze when she heard this.
"Yezi..."
"Auntie, don't worry, I won't fail..."
"This is my last chance. For the glory of the Kaga family, I will definitely go beyond Shimazu Tachihisa and contact the officials of the Ming Dynasty. After relying on them, our Kaga family will definitely be able to replace the Shimazu family..."
"Even if the Ming Dynasty does not want to fight a war across the sea, I will try my best to let them enter... Now the Ming Dynasty is extremely dissatisfied with the plundering of Kyushu Island at this time. When they were in Korea, the Doi family had fought with the Ming army We fought..."
"Now that the Ryukyu Kingdom has been invaded, the Ming Dynasty must be very dissatisfied. Their emperor and officials are all angry at this time. If someone tells him that if you fight, you will definitely win, then the Ming Dynasty will definitely take action..."
"And Shimazu Tachihisa is an extremely arrogant person. Now is the time when his reputation is at its strongest. He will definitely not back down from the negotiations with the Ming Dynasty. As long as the Ming army sends troops to Ryukyu, it will definitely be a big war. …”
"The Ming Dynasty has vast resources and a powerful military. The number of naval ships far exceeds the number of ships on Kyushu Island. In order to win the Ryukyu Kingdom, Shimazu Tachihisa will definitely do his best and send all the samurai in his hands to fight. , at that time, this Tsurumaru Castle must be empty..."
"As long as the Ming army can send 5,000 troops to hold back Satsuma's main force in the Ryukyu Kingdom, then I, the Kaga family, with more than 1,000 warriors who are good at fighting, can sweep Ou and Hinata, cutting off the retreat of the Shimazu family's main force... …”
"No matter what the outcome of the Battle of Ryukyu, Shimazu Tachihisa lost."
After hearing this, the wet nurse sighed. She knew this was a crazy plan, and in her opinion, it was also a plan that was difficult to realize.
The Kaga family is adjacent to the Hyuga Kingdom. Many years ago, they chose to support the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain, especially the last three generations.
From Kaga no Taka to Kaga Hirono, three generations have held important positions in the Satsuma Domain.
However, the power reshuffle within the Satsuma Domain also led to changes in the external environment. Shimazu Tachihisa inherited the position of governor in a dishonorable way, while the Kaga family was squeezed out and their right to speak on Kyushu Island was exceeded. They come less and less, and less than five years have passed, and the Kaga family has been reduced to the last seat in the discussion, and the situation is very embarrassing.
The woman in the room is actually Kaganoko.
The youngest daughter of the Kaga family.
The real Kaga Hirono died of poisoning five years ago.
But only the loyal retainers within knew that he was dead.
Even Shimazu Tachihisa, who sent the singer to be poisoned, thought he was lucky enough to survive.
It's just that the surviving "Kaga Hirono" no longer had the enterprising spirit before and was completely degraded. Since there was no longer any threat to him, no one was sent to deal with him.
Kaga Hirono has no heirs, and only Kaga Hirono has the blood of the Kaga family.
According to Kyushu Island's internal rules, if one of the daimyo nobles marries Kaga Noko, he will inherit the Kaga family's land, population, and city.
After Kaga Hirono's death, Kagano's only option was to marry Shimazu Tachihisa, who was not yet married at the time. Everything in the Kaga family belonged directly to the Shimazu family.
However, after learning that his eldest brother died under Shimazu Tachihisa's conspiracy, Kaganoko certainly would not marry his enemy.
Then, the seventeen-year-old Kaganoko became the twenty-seven-year-old Kagano Hirono, and has been hiding it until now.
In fact, Kagahiroko has never been to Tsurumaru Castle. Every time she came here to see Shimazu Tachihisa, it was another samurai who looked similar to Kagahirono. This was because she was afraid of being recognized, and this time she I took the risk and came here just for the envoys of the Ming Dynasty...
On the second day, the top military generals in Kyoto and Daban, the spokesperson of the shogun, Go Kakuda, and the special envoy of the Japanese emperor, Prince Fushiminomiya Naruhito, also arrived at Tsurumaru Castle.
This Prince Naruhito is the son of the Japanese Emperor Hou Ting Ka Wa, and he will also be the future Emperor Ho Tsuchikamon. Now, due to old age, frailty and other problems, the Emperor Hou Ting Ka Wa in Kyoto has begun to consider giving up the position of the Japanese Emperor to Gotsuchimikado is in charge, and the royal family has begun preparations for the enthronement ceremony of the new Japanese emperor.
Shimazu Tachihisa led the retainers to greet him outside his home.
The Ming Dynasty's envoy Zhang Huaizhi was also invited to the house early and arranged to take a short rest in the living room.
When the convoy with the characteristics of a little devil arrived at the door of the house, Shimazu Tachihisa saw Prince Naruhito's carriage behind Gakuda Go. He was furious immediately, and then directly led the samurai retainers behind him, ignoring Gakuda Go's carriage. Jogging all the way to the side of Prince Chengren's car.
The young Prince Naruhito had just gotten out of the carriage with the support of the young and beautiful Attendant Toda Asako, when he saw a group of warriors running towards him.
"Your Highness, the one at the front is Shimazu Tachihisa, the governor of Satsuma Domain at this time."
Prince Chengren nodded: "That's him, writing a letter to your father."
"Yes, since the end of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Satsuma Domain has been keen to implement the previous return of power to the emperor. This time, after coming here, His Highness will meet with the Ming Dynasty envoy and have a detailed discussion with him..."
Prince Chengren nodded.
While he was talking, Shimazu Tachihisa arrived and led his retainers to salute respectfully. Prince Naruhito also enthusiastically supported Shimazu Tachihisa.
And this scene was all seen by Kuroda Go in front.
Kurodago was the shogun's spokesman in Kyoto, and he monitored the Japanese emperor and the Kansai princes.
Now Shimazu Tachihisa ignores him and goes to the prince to show his courtesy. This is a clear statement of attitude. I will not abandon you, the Furukada family, and the Ashikaga family behind you. The Japanese emperor is in my hands, and I will not abandon him. Like the Ashikaga family, they can establish a shogunate.
Shimazu Tachihisa greeted Prince Naruhito respectfully and walked forward. When he passed by Gakuda Go, he pretended to be surprised: "Nani, I only have His Highness Prince Naruhito in my eyes. I didn't expect that General Kuroda is here too. It's really... Disrespectful discourtesy.”
Kurodago looked at Shimazu Tachihisa and sneered twice: "Hurry up and take us in to see the special envoy of His Majesty the Ming Emperor. I really don't want to stay in this small place for a moment. It smells like fish. Your Highness, please Don’t stay too long. If you stay too long, the fishy smell on your body will be hard to get rid of..."
"Humph, if you don't want to stay, General Kuroda can go back first. Osaka Castle is big and Tsurumaru Castle is small, and there is no room for General Kuroda. But you can't decide whether His Highness Prince Naruhito will stay or go."
As soon as Shimazu Tachihisa said this, the dozen or so samurai behind him stared at Kukuda Go.
Kakuda Go knew that as long as Shimazu Tachihisa gave the order, these people would really dare to hand themselves over here... However, as a senior member of the shogunate, Kakuda Go was also the guardian of the big board, and was older than Shimazu Tachihisa. In his twenties and twenties, how could he be frightened by a young man like Shimazu Tachihisa? He snorted coldly: "It's not you who has the final say, nor me, but whether you do it or not. His Highness, Prince Chengren, has the final say...Tell me, is that right, Prince Chengren..."
