Ninagawa himself bowed and said.

"My subordinates are frightened and must devote all their energy to serving the Great Imperial Palace.

Mr. Gongfang was deceived by a traitor and became confused, so he did such wrong things that hurt his relatives and made his enemies happy."

No matter how badass Ashikaga Yoshiaki is, she is already Ashikaga Shogun. It is impossible for Ninagawa himself to say that the general is at fault. It must be the work of a traitor!

Yiyin glanced at her and saw that the old fox was speaking impeccably, so he stabbed her.

"Then Ninagawa-sama, do you want me to side with you?"

Ninagawa himself was shocked, quickly shook his head and said.

"No, not really.

The shogunate is no better than the Celestial Empire, it has its own national conditions, so Odai’s words are too serious.”

Ever since the Ming Emperor played a trick of killing his niece and seizing the throne, the term "Qingjunzi" has become completely bad in the Chinese cultural circle, which is analogous to abdication.

Ninagawa Makoyo said.

"The ancestors had wisdom long ago. In order to prevent villains from disrupting the government, they established leaders to assist the generals in managing the government.

Let me say something disrespectful, Master Gongfang was born in a monastery and learned Buddhism through five chariots, but the knowledge of governing the world still needs experience.

The current mess in the shogunate is due to the lack of a sensible leader who can help the general suppress those idiots."

Yoshigan raised his eyebrows, and Hatakeyama Takamasa's eyes began to light up.

Ninagawa's words were confused by what she said, but the two people present were born in the third rank, so they naturally understood what she meant behind her, which was to deceive the general.

The history of internal strife in the Ashikaga Shogunate is basically a process of power struggle between the shogun and the three chiefs, with the occasional addition of the Yamano family, the strongest among the four.

General Ashikaga is a fool, but there is no need to overthrow her. The matter is so big and the impact will not be good. All you need to do is remove her power. This kind of thing has happened before.

As for Yoshigan Shiba, there happens to be a suitable candidate, and that is Takamasa Hatakeyama.

Hatakeyama Takamasa is one of the three leaders, the governor of the Hatakeyama clan, and she is qualified to be the leader.

Ninagawa's method was the traditional shogunate's power trick, which was to turn the general into a puppet.

While Yoshigan was still thinking, Hatakeyama Takamasa already kowtowed to him and said.

"Dad, if I can become the leader, I will be loyal to you and keep an eye on those idiots in the shogunate for you."

Hatakeyama Takamasa lost all face. Why? It was to revive the Hatakeyama clan. Shiba Yiyin gave her half of Hanoi, and she was willing to be a mad dog and bite people in the council.

Although the leadership of the shogunate is not as prosperous as before, it is a good opportunity for Hatakeyama Takamasa, whose family business has declined and whose reputation has been ruined, to reorganize the family business.

What's more, Shiba Yiyin is not an arbitrary person, and her leadership still has some real power.

Just because the benefits were big enough, Hatakeyama Takamasa called him his biological father again with a look on his face, which made Yoshigan Shiba feel goosebumps all over his body.

Looking at Ninagawa himself with an expectant look on his face, and then at Hatakeyama Takamasa who was kissing his father, Yoshigan felt his teeth sore.

First, he supported Ashikaga Yoshiaki, a wolf-hearted man, so would he want to support a crazy Hatakeyama Taomasa again?

Thinking of Hatakeyama Takamasa's massacre of the Yusa family regardless of old feelings, Yoshigami didn't think her character could be much better than Ashikaga Yoshiaki, it was like raising another white-eyed wolf.

Besides, there is Oda Nobunaga outside.

Oda Nobunaga has broken with herself. Can she watch her sideline Ashikaga Yoshiaki and hide behind Hatakeyama Takamasa to control the shogunate?

Even if Yoshigan wants to be Empress Shiba and listen to politics behind the curtain, he still has to guard against Hatakeyama Mitsuo's sweet talk and Oda Shikai's eye.

In this case, it is better to maintain the status quo. Keep Ashikaga Sujun as a white-eyed wolf, at least there will be no need to form a mahjong table in the future, which will be more troublesome.

Seeing that Yoshigan was a little hesitant, Hatakeyama Takamasa and Ninagawa Makoto couldn't help but feel anxious.

They were already at odds with Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and they all relied on Yoshigan Shiba for their wealth and wealth. Of course they hoped that Yoshigan Shiba would decisively attack, and the east wind would prevail over the west wind, so that they could live a good life.

Hatakeyama Takamasa kowtowed.

"Dear dad! If you keep cutting off, you will suffer chaos!"

Yiyin rubbed his temples and said.

"Your Highness Hatakeyama, please don't call me by this name anymore. I always feel that I will panic and my life will be shortened.

Ninagawa-sama, do you know that His Highness Oda of Tofukuji Temple and the Shogun already have a tacit understanding? If there is a major turmoil in the shogunate, the Shogun will not be without external support.

At that time, Kyoto will suffer another military turmoil, and the authority that the shogunate has finally restored will be completely destroyed."

Yoshigan's reason was so pitiful that Ninagawa himself couldn't help but sigh.

People like Ashikaga Yoshiaki only wanted to keep their own positions of power. They never thought about the future of the shogunate and the peace of Kyoto.

She admired Shiba Yiyin's noble character even more and said respectfully.

"I understand what the Great Otai Suo means.

If the shogunate is in turmoil, it will naturally give outsiders opportunities to take advantage of it. But if the shogunate is not in turmoil, can the general be able to calm down?"

Yiyin's expression changed and he asked.

"The plan is coming?"

Ninagawa himself smiled.

"At today's council meeting, I used words to force the Ashikaga ministers. Wada Weimasa was still hesitant, but Hitoshi Yoshimasa was impatient and came out to make peace.

Odaisho, don’t you think it’s strange?”

Shiba Yiyin narrowed his eyes.

"It's indeed a bit weird, why is that?"

Ninagawa Makoyo said.

"Because Niki Yoshimasa was afraid of the commotion among the Ashikama Hui, she was afraid that she would not be able to control the Ashikama Hui and lose the capital to settle down and live.

The Ashikaga Hui's Five Hundred Princess Samurai are the military force directly under the Ashikaga family, and they have always been favored by the ancestors.

This time the Ise Sadato forced you to go to the palace, which makes you feel embarrassed, and it is also a smear on the face of the ancestors. His Majesty Hatakeyama argued hard for the Odaisho's cry, but they saw it in their eyes.

If Niki Yoshimasa doesn't come out and say a few words, her good days will be over. If she can't control the Ashikama return crowd, what qualifications does the Niki family have to sit in the front seat with the little wealth of the Niki family.

The Ogusa family among the public has been loyal to the Ashikaga family for generations, and the current governor of the family is taking on the post of the Ashikaga Hui clan. If the Odai is willing, I am willing to come forward to find Ogusa and have a good chat.

Mr. Gongkata has just succeeded to the throne and has no foundation in the shogunate. He relies entirely on the support of the remaining ministers and party members of the past generations.

The defense of Nijo Imperial Palace is the responsibility of the Ashikaga Hui clan. As long as they are willing to stand by your side, small changes within the shogunate will not cause big disturbances and allow outsiders to get involved."

Yiyin nodded slightly, still feeling a little uneasy in his heart, and asked.

"Kongkata-sama is already in power, doesn't he know how to win over Ashikaga?

Although she is a little confused, she is not so confused that she does not even bother to win over the pro-soldiers around her, right?

The Ashikaga Hui clan has always been loyal only to the general, how could they be willing to stand up for me?"

Yiyin's so-called loyalty to the Wu family has always been a 20% discount and then a 20% discount.

The Wu family puts family business first, and their loyalty to their lord is more of a transaction. Even family shareholders who have taken shares in the family business, such as generational retainers, often overwhelm their superiors for the sake of profit.

Why is Fenggong's bounty called the cornerstone of the Wu family? Because the boss who is willing to hand over the money and deliver the goods is the most recognized leader of the Ji warriors.

After serving the throne, you must realize the benefits, otherwise who the hell would help you!

No matter how much Ashikaga Yoshiki gave her in the beginning, now that she has become completely cold, she will not be able to give him any more in the future.

Speaking of Ashikama recalling the kindness of Ashikaga Yoshiteru in the past, Yoshigine believes that the human heart is always full of flesh.

But he didn't dare to believe that the Ashikaga Council was willing to overthrow the current lord, Ashikaga Yoshiaki, for the sake of the old lord's old favor.

This group of pro-soldiers who did not have supplies from their own territory could not bear the reputation of being a subordinate.

The dining table is turned over. What do these warrior Ji family snacks do? For the sake of kindness to the ancestors, let the whole family go to drink the northwest wind? This is not the style of the Wu family.

Seeing Yoshigin's doubts, Ninagawa Okayo explained with a smile.

"Master Gongfang is so helpless.

The shogunate's income has been declining over the years. It was already stretched thin when the ancestors were alive, and it is even worse now.

The shogunate's finances mainly relied on donations from local samurai families, tributes from the shogunate samurai families, and taxes from Kyoto's castle towns. You know, these three are already in ruins.

Previous generations have worked hard and thought of many ways, all to solve the problem of military expenditure.

However, Miyoshi went to Luo, and Kyoto was in chaos. From the beginning of this spring to now, the shogunate has almost no new revenue.

The Ashikama Hui clan's salary has been cut off for some time, and it's very difficult for them."

Yiyin woke up and found out that was the case.

Ninagawa himself had the confidence to bring the Ashikaga Hui clan over, because he relied on Shiba Yoshigan to be rich, while Ashikaga Yoshiaki was poor b.

Although what she said was reserved, Yoshigan understood it. Yoshigan also knew a little about the shogunate's finances.

The shogunate declined, and the local imperial palaces were almost completely occupied by local samurai families.

Originally, the local samurai family put on a show and donated money to the shogunate to cover up the scandal of local annexation of the imperial palace.

However, as the strength of the shogunate declined, the local samurai became more and more unscrupulous. With the Kyoto Incident, the authority of the shogunate fell sharply, and the local samurai did not take the shogunate seriously, so naturally their donations dropped sharply.
