In the Yamaguchi Castle Council, Masayoshi Zheng made a request to the Tuju Qingzong to recruit his grandson Tuju Qingliang as a small surname...

Faced with Masayoshi's request, Tuju Qingzong was a little embarrassed. First, because he only had such a grandson. Once there was a mistake, the family's bloodline would almost be broken. But he understood that he could not refuse today because this was actually because the Luo family had dissatisfied with the previous performance of the Xituji family and asked the Xituji family to hand over the hostages. After all, when the two families formed an alliance, they did not send hostages to each other. Now, the Xituji family, as the weak and indefault party, naturally had to hand over the hostages. Thinking of this, Tuju Qingzong regretted this trip. Although he had obtained the understanding of the Luo family for the Xituji family, Tuju wanted to hand over the grandson as hostages for this.

Moreover, when it comes to handing over the grandson, his wife at home may get angry because of this. From now on, there will be no peace in the family. What he is actually most worried about is how to explain to his wife after learning about this matter (Tuju Qingzong was a very rare warrior in the history of the Warring States Period).

In history, Miaorong, the old wife of the Tuju Qingzong, was a famous harsh woman, who was as good as a man. When the Otomo family invaded the territory of the Xituji family and attacked the Tuju family's Jucheng, the woman sent her grandson Toju Keira to Tosaguo to join another Tuju family member, the genealogy of the Ai family, the old Tuju family loyalty (that is, the family of the famous general Toju Zongshan). Then she and her husband and son stood by the Jucheng until they died in battle and did not surrender to the Otomo family.

However, even though Tuju Qingzong was reluctant to do so, after returning to Nanyiyu Kingdom with Zhengliang's secret letter, he still sent his ten-year-old grandson Tuju Qingliang to Zhengliang as a small surname under the arrangement of his lord Xitu Temple.

On this side, the Xituji family in Nanyiyu Kingdom and the giant Luo family were in a quarrel. On the other side, a family who had been paying close attention to the situation in the Kyushu area adjacent to the four countries also received news of the Battle of Itsujima in Xiguo. At the same time, through the family's retainer, Tuju Home, he also learned some details about the relationship between the Xituji family and the Luo family.

As the Luo family became stronger and stronger, Yi family had to pay attention to the Luo family, especially when the Luo family's naval army had completely controlled the Fenghou waterway and could completely influence the Tosa Kingdom through the waterway, Yi family could not feel that the Luo family threatened the family to their family.

"Is it a bit rude to reject the Luo family's request for alliance?"

In the Nakamura Castle Council Hall in Tosa Kōta-gun, the old Tuju Tosa family, Soshan, spoke.

As Toyu Soshan said this, the faces of several Otomo family members in the meeting hall changed suddenly. A few years ago, the Luo family was invading the Fenghou Kingdom of Kyushu Otomo family, so the envoys representing the Luo family and the Otomo family arrived at the same time. The envoys of the Otomo family naturally hoped that the Yijia, who was an ally, could make an alliance with the Yijia, and thus prevent the Yijia from going out to support the Yijia.

Because Yi Family's previous governor Yi Fangji suddenly committed suicide, and Yi Fangji's official wife was a member of the Otomo family. This wife was also the mother of the current governor Yi Fangji, and Yi Family was an ally of the Otomo family, so these retainers naturally strongly opposed forming an alliance with the Luo family. With their efforts, they finally achieved this goal and gave the Luo Family's envoy gift to Yi Family's territory. Now, as one of the families who had strongly advocated alliance with the Luo Family, they suddenly mentioned this matter again. Isn't this just slapping them in the face? So their faces changed immediately.

"Isn't it just a newly rising little wealthy family? And it's a sea area away from our family, why bother so much? Let's just do it today, there's a banquet tonight."

Just as the retainers were talking about it because of a sentence from Touju Zongshan, sitting on the main seat, a young man in his teenage dressed as a creamy boy suddenly said. This person is a great god known to people in later generations, named Yi Jianding. This great god committed suicide because his father suddenly committed suicide. When he was six years old, he was forced to inherit the position of governor of the family until now.

"Master, please respect yourself!"

When he heard that the family governor ignored political affairs again and even ended the family assessment meeting early again, the straightforward Touzu Zongshan immediately frowned and whispered.

"Okay, okay, I know."

Hearing the voice of Touju Zongshan, Yi Jianding waved his hand immediately, stood up, and then took his close attendant to the side door of the meeting hall. Yi Jianding was really tired of Touju Zongshan, the old man who usually chatted in his ears. So when he heard Touju Zongshan's voice, he immediately accelerated his pace. At night, there was a beautiful little surname sent by a local rich family waiting for him.

The retainers in the meeting hall seemed to have been used to this situation for a long time, so they were just shaking their heads, but they did not react too much. The old Tuju Zongshan of the Bitou family was also very anxious at this time. The lord had been in charge of the position of family governor for seven years. At this age, he should have been focusing on the affairs of the family at home, but at this time he was still obsessed with fun, especially the female or even male. There was no such thing as a lord. Thinking of this, the lord secretly looked at the Kang Zheng who was kneeling there like an old monk opposite.

In Tuju Zongshan's opinion, the reason why the family governor's performance is definitely related to this guy. At that time, because the family governor was still young, the daily life of the family governor was mainly the one who was the one who governed the family (Yi Kangzheng was the uncle who governed the family), and even part of the education was the one who was responsible for part of the education. As a result, the old guy took the opportunity to gradually control the rights of the family. Could it be that the old guy deliberately let the family governor form such a style so that the old guy can continue to control the rights of the family by himself? It seems that he had to discuss it secretly with the other important officials in the family.

Just as Tuju Zongshan was muttering to herself on the other side, Kang Zheng was also thinking in his heart. Of course, he thought that it was not the rude behavior of the family governor Yi Ding just now, but the matter of forming an alliance with the Luo family was first considered.

He also clearly remembered that when the Otomo family and the envoys of the Luo family arrived in Nakamura Castle at the same time, the envoys from both sides tried their best to get the support of the Yi family. In the end, Yasumasaki rejected the invitation to form an alliance in view of the ally between the Yi family and the Otomo family, and was preparing to send reinforcements to support the Otomo family.

At this moment, Yokoto, a member of the Kyoto clan who had been away from his family for a long time, suddenly arrived from Kyoto and met him. Under the persuasion of Yokoto, Yokoto Yasumasa did not form an alliance with the Luo family, but did not send reinforcements to the Ototo family. He just watched the Ototo family be destroyed by the Luo family. Subsequently, the Luo family gradually became the overlord who influenced Kyushu, the Western Kingdom, and even the Four Kingdoms regions.

"Now it seems that it seems like a mistake to not listen to Sheng Long's persuasion to form an alliance with the Luo family! So what should I do?"

For a country, once its neighboring country becomes too strong, it will naturally become alert and even feel threatened. And a family belongs to the latter at this time.

If the Luo family at this time did not threaten Yi family, it would be a lie. As for the Fenghou Waterway, since the Xitusi family's naval army was left along the coast of Yiyu Kingdom at this time, and Xitusi was an ally of the Luo family. Moreover, judging from the information transmitted from Yiyu Kingdom at this time, the Xitusi family was a bit of a sign that they became a servant of the Luo family at this time.

With the help of the Xituji Navy, the Luo Family Navy could invade the Tosa Kingdom from the coastal areas of the Tosa Kingdom at any time, and could also use the territory of the Xituji Navy in the north and south as a foothold to gradually invade from a home on land to the south. Therefore, a home would be in danger from the Luo Family on both sides of the north and south.

"No, I must use the Utsunomiya family in the north of the Situji family to restrain the Xituji family, thereby reducing the possibility of the Luo family invasion. It seems that the marriage between the nephew and the princess of the Utsunomiya family should be put on the agenda as soon as possible." Thinking of this, Katsukara Katsu immediately pondered, "As for the Luo family, it is time to take the initiative to contact the Luo family's diplomacy. It seems that people have to send someone to contact the clan member of the Shenglong who is settling in Kyoto. It would be great if he could marry the Luo family. Unfortunately, his nephew is about to marry his ally Princess of the Utsunomiya family, and his daughter married An Yun City Lord An Yun Guohu." Katsukara Katsukara wanted his son without a son and his daughter without a daughter, which led to the unemployment of marriage diplomacy that was generally adopted during the Warring States Period.

Just when Kang Zheng thought of An Yun Guohu, the son-in-law of An Yun Guohu, An Yun, who was in An Yuncheng, An Yun County, eastern Tosa Kingdom, was hesitating at this time.

Not long ago, the Honyama family sent an envoy to invite the An Yun family to send troops to attack the gradually rising Nagazotomoto family, but at this time, An Yun Guohu hesitated. At present, with the expansion of the Nagazotomoto family, the family's power has already been in Kami. The two counties of Nagazotomoto have occupied a lot of territory, which made the tycoons of the two places frightened. The forces of the Honyama family are distributed in Nagaoka, Tosa, and Gogawa. At this time, the Honyama family had a conflict with Nagazotomotomoto in Nagaoka. If the An Yun family agreed to the invitation of the Honyama family, they would first enter the Yesu area of ​​the Nagazotomoto family.

According to the current detailed report, almost all the military forces of the Changzong-Wu Beng family were concentrated in Nagaoka County to fight against the Honyama family. It was absolutely empty against the An Yun family. As long as the An Yun family came out this time, they would definitely seize a lot of the territory of the Changzong-Wu Beng family.
