Chapter 636

In the 17th year of Astronomy (1548), winter began.

The warm sunshine spreads the tombstones and plants on the hills, and the chirping of birds in the mountains is sometimes close and sometimes far away.

Masayoshi was dressed in an extremely neat manner and sat upright on a Ming Dynasty chair that had been prepared long ago. Opposite was Sora Ryu Ren, who looked a bit weird. He was obviously not used to this magical and weird Ming Dynasty chair. Moreover, the meeting place between the two sides was still on a hill full of tombstones. This made Sora Ryu Ren’s feeling really hard to explain.

"How? If you like it, bring two photos back this time." Masarara said gently: "As for Rihime and her mother-in-law, they are all very happy here and will not leave for the time being."

When Xiang Liang Wu Ren heard this, he couldn't help but look stiff. Zheng Liang's words have two purposes.

One of them directly blocked him from rejecting Masayoshi’s gift, so he had to bring the gift back. If so, he would naturally be criticized by other retainers of the inner family. "Look, he is really a good family! Once on a mission, he would be like visiting relatives. I really don’t know what else to do in secret. "

Thinking of the rumors in Ouchi's family at that time, Aoi Takeru will have a headache. The governor of Ouchi Yoshitaka will also suspect that he and the Luo family are connected. At least during this mission, if the preliminary purpose is not achieved during this time, once he returns home, he will naturally be punished.

Another meaning of Masayoshi's words is to imply that his wife and daughter are not happy to be with him, and at the same time, it also eliminates the idea of ​​taking his wife and daughter away. For all his previous arrangements and decisions, Susayoshi Wuren thought he had done nothing wrong. He did not feel guilty about his daughter and son-in-law.

The arrangement of putting his daughter under house arrest and becoming a monk is just for the benefit of the family. Arranged his daughter to the Chuanqian and stay away from Zhou Fang, the political center of the Danai family, so that he can avoid being noticed. After all, at this time, Takeru Sara had been highly valued by Yoshitaka Ouchi, and the family flourished. Last year, his family obtained a new territory near the Zhou Fang Tao family. Now, although the main wife and the eldest daughter are in the Luo family, the other people of his tribe are on the other side of the new territory. The main wife is angry at his arrangement for his daughter and moved alone to live near the whereabouts of his daughter to become a monk in order to take care of her daughter.

He did not want his future and family prosperity to be affected because of his daughter. As for his family, he ignored her feelings even more. (In history, after Tao Longfang raised an army to rebel and began to pursue him, he directly gave up his wife, children, and family and fled, resulting in the massacre of these relatives by Tao Longfang. From this we can see that he is essentially a person with the most important interests, first of all his own interests. Then there is the interests of the family, and as for relatives, it is just a tool.)

As for his son-in-law Zhengliang, he felt even more guilty. After all, the relationship between Weng and Xu was just a political relationship. He appreciated Zhengliang, but it had nothing to do with his duty. His duty was a retainer of the Da Nei family. After all, he was first of all, a retainer of the Da Nei family. If he supported the Luo family, his family interests would be directly affected. At this time, he naturally abandoned Zhengliang.

The same is true for Tao Longfang. Although he has a good relationship with Masayoshi, as a retainer of the Da Nei family, he naturally chose to protect his own interests when his own interests are threatened. Therefore, when Yoshitaka Ouchi decided to tear up the alliance with the Luo family, neither Suoliang nor Tao Longfang agreed, but they did not object. So they decisively abstained from power, neither supporting the Luo family nor taking the initiative to confront the Luo family (in fact, if Tao Longfang participated in this battle, the Luo family would encounter more trouble).

In Masayoshi's opinion, Sora Gore is not a qualified husband, father and father-in-law, but he is a qualified retainer.

After instantly capturing the meaning of Zhengliang's words, Suga Liang Wuren couldn't help but feel distressed. Can negotiations with his son-in-law who has such a strong mind really achieve the purpose of peace talks between the two families?

The current situation is indeed a bit unfavorable to the Oui family. First of all, the threat from the Oui Nizi family to the Oui family. Since the last time Oui Yoshitaka went to the expedition to the Nizi family and returned from the expedition, the Nizi family has been more and more frequent. The two families have fought several times in Ishimiguo to fight for control of the silver mine. Now it is becoming more and more intense. In fact, Masayoshi also has some understanding of the struggle between the two families. Not long ago, he has sent an envoy to the Yin-Yang Road to establish an equal alliance with the Nizi family to join forces to deal with the Oui family. The Oui family took the initiative to negotiate peace with the Luo family this time, so as to avoid being attacked on both sides.

In addition, the fire of Hakata in order to retreat safely this time, Hiromori caused many sequelae. The most direct impact was that it caused protests from many powerful shopping malls and even demanded compensation for materials. At the same time, it also caused dissatisfaction among the retainers of Hakata who had supplies and interests. In the view of Takeru Satori, these retainers were completely fine. Once Hakata fell into the Luo family, can the materials of the retainers of the hostile family be retained? But in any case, Hakata had affected the reputation and prestige of the great family among the powerful, and even more affected the commercial prosperity in the territory.

Naito Yoshimori also knew that he had caused a big disaster this time, so after returning to Zhou Fang, he took the initiative to apologize to Yoshitaka Ouchi and recuperate at home. He even fell ill in bed in the end (the real reason was that he received a letter from Masarara. After learning that Naito's wife Aso Ki was forced to stay in the Luo family, coupled with the previous resentment towards the Luo family, he was eventually sickened).

In addition, as the Luo family defeated nearly 30,000 coalition forces of the Otomo family and the Oui family, and then captured the western part of the Chimachi country, which originally belonged to the Oui family, some wealthy families near the Luo family's territory had already shown signs of instability. For example, the Sozo family, although the Sozo family sent the strongest naval army on the coast of the Takanorika to help Naito retreat, the Sozo family's actions seemed a little slow throughout the process. Even after receiving the request for help from Takatori Castle of the Sugi family, they remained silent and only wanted to protect themselves.

For example, the Qiuyue family. After being occupied by the Luo family, the Qiuyue family should have been together with the Luo family to deal with the Luo family, but at this time it displayed heavy troops in a near the territory directly under the Danei family. It was obviously guarding against the Danei family. All of the above shows that the Danei family's rule in the former country was in a sign of unstable state. The Danei family naturally fought for time to stabilize the situation again.

"Tell me, what's wrong with the Otaku family sending you here this time?" Just as Suga Liang Wu Ren was thinking secretly how to convince Zheng Liang to agree to the reconciliation between the two families, Zheng Liang changed his voice and took the initiative to ask Suga Liang Wu Ren's purpose.

"Master Dazai Shao Er. The battle between the two families was entirely caused by misunderstandings between the two families. Dazai Dazai thought that the two families would be better able to turn war into jade at this time." Seeing that Masayoshi had officially called him "Your Excellency", Sora Takeru had to put aside his father-in-law's identity and speak as an envoy. Of course, he also secretly reminded Masayoshi through the comparison of official positions in his words that Yoshitaka Ouchi at this time not only had his official positions higher than Masayoshi, but even the family status of the Dazai family was still stronger than that of the Luo family. If the two families continued to fight, it would be of no benefit to both sides.

Zhengliang did not directly respond to what Xiangliang Wu Ren said. After all, diplomacy is not a blind quarrel, but an exchange of interests. So Zhengliang instead waits leisurely for Xiangliang Wu Ren to continue speaking.

Seeing that Masarara did not continue to express his opinion, Takeru Sara had to bite the bullet and continue saying: "I think that when I fought outside the city of Takeno, my family did not have the body of the samurai who died in a difficult situation. So in order to show the sincerity of the two sides' peace talks, my family hopes that you can return the head of Sugitoshi's former guardian Yoshiki, Harada's head of Lord Sugitoshi, and his clan members to the family."

Xiangliang Wuren did not put forward the conditions that the great internal family could promise, but instead directly put forward the conditions that the great internal family required. Because he was really not sure that Zhengliang agreed to the conditions that the great internal family had originally offered. He simply waited for Zhengliang to propose the conditions himself.

As for the conditions proposed by the Danui family, Masara understood what Yoshitaka Ouchi meant after hearing this. It was nothing more than to ensure his reputation and to show his image of never giving up on his family to enhance morale and soothe people's hearts. At the same time, it was also to ensure that the Sugi family existed as a guardian family in front of the Chuan, so that the Danui family would continue to guarantee the rule in front of the Chuan. The so-called peace talks, for both parties at this time, were just a ugliness cloth that could be torn apart again at any time, and the exchange conditions proposed now are the fundamental interests of the peace talks between the Danui family.

And what about the Luo family? What benefits can we get from the other party this time?

So Masayoro soon thought of the problem of prisoners that had not been resolved at this time. This time he fought with Otomo and the two armies of Ouchi. The Luo family captured nearly 30,000 prisoners. After the war ended, most of them had allowed them to settle in the territory of the Luo family according to the original agreement, but they were not allowed to leave the territory of the Luo family and return to their original homes, so as not to follow the local wealthy families to fight against the Luo family again in the future. The Luo family would never do anything to restore the enemy's strength in disguise.

It was just that nearly 3,000 of them were in the Danei family territory outside the Luo family territory (because of mobilizing Zhuhou, the rich people of the Zhuqian territory were the main force of the Luo family, so most of the prisoners were the locals in Zhuqian and Zhuqian, and these people were happily returning home). Even though they were forced to stay in the Luo family territory at this time, it was difficult to avoid them trying to return to their homes in the future.

In addition, among the prisoners who were instigated into the Luo family's slave team, nearly a thousand people's homes were in the Danei family territory outside the Luo family's territory. After working for a period of free time in the Luo family, these people will also receive the reward of becoming the Luo family's subordinates and being able to settle down on the spot because of their accumulated merits. They will also find ways to return to their original homes.

Zhengliang was also having a headache before. How should these two people stay in the Luo family with peace of mind? Now the solution is here. That is to ask the inner family to send the families of these people to the Luo family's territory.

In this way, the first thing is to make these prisoners return to their hearts. Secondly, the population of the territory can be increased by the same time. By the average of one prisoner, it can increase the population of at least 10,000 people this time. Finally, the problem of the Shan family was solved by the way. Although the Shan family surrendered and the Shan family's territory had been enfeoffed by Zhengliang, Zhengliang had never decided on how to deal with Shan Chongki and his tribe (after all, if they were to be defeated, Zhengliang had never decided before (after all, if they were to be defeated, Zhengliang had never decided on how to deal with Shan Chongki and his tribe (after all, if they were to be treated, they would not be decided before (

Killing will cause concerns among other wealthy families who have also surrendered. If they do not kill, they cannot stay in the Luo family's house. Putting them under house arrest will waste manpower and material resources to guard them). Now, this problem will be solved. With Sugichi's bear style who is not as good as martial arts, after returning to the Da Nei family camp, even if he inherits everything from his father Sugi Xingyun, he is just a rat shit in the Da Nei family camp. He just lets him continue to harm the Da Nei family.

In addition, Zhengliang also thought that in this war, all the teams participating in the battle suffered varying degrees of damage, and it was time to replenish the troops. Zhengliang was also preparing to increase the standing quota of each standing quota from the original 500 to 600 (of which each team captain and spear are always 350, and bows and arrows are always 250. In this way, with the number of other standing quota of the Luo family, the Luo family has 7,700 standing quota). It just so happened that the soldiers were selected from these captive soldiers who had returned to their hearts.

Thinking of this, Masayoshi had decided to negotiate peace with the Da Nei family. So he immediately put forward the conditions: "If you plan to negotiate peace with the family and hand over the prisoners and heads mentioned by you, then you must hand over the retainer Duanmu Kiyoshi who was imprisoned in your hands." When the Da Nei family tore up the alliance with the Luo family, Duanmu Kiyoshi, who was an hostage of the two sides, was immediately imprisoned. Now Masayoshi naturally took the opportunity to exchange it back.

After a moment of pause, Zhengliang continued to speak: "In addition, our family has captured some of your soldiers, and they voluntarily stayed in our family to settle down, so you must move their families to the border of our territory and hand them over to our family to receive. At that time, our family will provide you with a detailed list, and you can provide personnel to our family according to the list. Please be sure to ensure the food and clothing and health of these personnel. Otherwise, whenever one of these people dies in the process of moving to our family's border, our family will cut down a member of the Shan family and directly exterminate the Shan family."

After all, these migrated people no longer belong to the Da Nei family, and they will inevitably be criticized during the migration process, so Zhengliang must ensure their safety. Otherwise, if they deliberately use the method of slaughter to reduce the migrant population or send a bunch of people on the verge of death to the Luo family, it will increase the burden on the Luo family in disguise. Now, using the lives of the Shan family as a threat, it can force the Da Nei family to spend a lot of food to ensure that these people can successfully arrive at the Luo family's territory.

Xiangliang Wuren did not expect that Zhengliang would put forward such conditions. Moreover, there were many disadvantages to the Da Nei family (for example, the Luo family deliberately increased the list of exchanges in order to obtain more population from the Da Nei family, etc.), so Xiangliang Wuren immediately bargained with Zhengliang after a little thought.

One hour later, after some discussion, based on the conditions mentioned by both parties just now, the Danei family and the Luo family finally reached a peace agreement. Of course, both of them understood in their hearts. After the conditions for peace negotiation between the two parties were fulfilled, the so-called peace agreement could be torn down at any time.

After agreeing on everything, Suga Liang Wuren decisively refused Zhengliang's resolutely and fled and left. Bargaining with Zhengliang was simply torture for him. This son-in-law was too difficult. He didn't want to stay in front of Zhengliang at all, so as not to be angry.

When she was about to leave the mountain with stone tablets everywhere, Xiangliang Wuren suddenly saw a team of "boy scouts" arranged in neat formations and practicing neat steps appeared at the foot of the mountain. These boy scouts are here to sweep the graves today. According to the rules of the Luo family, every village in the territory will set up a boy scout who is over eight years old and under fifteen years old regardless of gender (just like the boy scouts established when Zhengliang started his career). They will be divided into several teams, and then they will be regularly divided into village patrols while learning cultural knowledge, and will also be trained by the village head responsible for the village security.

Regular visits to the Hero Cemetery to sweep the tombs is also one of their training content. Even the Boy Scouts in the farthest area in the Luo Family Territory will organize to visit the tombs here once a year. All the food and accommodation on the way are arranged by the territories along the way. Of course, the routes of these Boy Scouts have basically been designed in advance by the Inner Affairs Cabinet, and the territories responsible for receiving these Boy Scouts along the way will also be compensated by the Inner Affairs Cabinet. In short, this has formed a safe and stable system in the Luo Family. What Suo Liang Wuren just saw was a team of Boy Scouts who had just arrived to sweep the tombs.

Xiangliang Wuren originally planned to ask the little surname who was leading the way for information about the boy scouts. But as soon as his mouth opened, he decisively closed it again. Because he realized that it was useless to ask. Just when he came to meet Zhengliang before, he tried to get more information about the Luo family from the little surname, but he was turned away.

Since he was six years old, Sonjoshi Kamiya, who is now nine years old, is so easy to cheat under Masaru's subtle teaching. What's more, since he followed Masaru, Sonjoshi Kamiya has been guarding against tricks from Naoshima and Masaru Honta almost every day. Even the wooden man will become a smart person now (so, this time, Naoshi Kamiya and Masaru Honta were assigned to positions, which is simply liberated for the remaining Sonjoshi Kamiya and Yoshihiro Shimazu). So it is strange that Takeru Saira's conspiracy is not turned away from being turned away.

After asking for boredom again, Saeliang Wuren looked back again and saw that he had gone further and further, but he still maintained a neat formation, and even took neat steps in the boys' army. Saeliang Wuren suddenly thought:
Chapter completed!
