Chapter 114 Planning
In Yu Qiuping's previous life, in the third year of Yonglu (1560), that is, next year, the important ministers who hold great power in the Asai family will oust Asai Hisamasa because they are dissatisfied with their lord's weakness, and will welcome Asai Kenmasa as his successor.
The new governor.
In this time and space, due to the visit of Sena Ujitoshi, the intensification of the conflict was advanced.
What Yu Qiuping wants to do this time is to push the boat forward and promote the coup to come early. Yu Gong, a tough governor of the Asai family, comes to power, which is conducive to the development of the Imagawa family's diplomatic work. Yu private, he also hopes that his adopted brother
Asai Kenmasa can quickly embark on the path of fighting for the glory of the Asai family and the justice of the samurai.
"Master Yuqiu, why are you here?" Akao Kiyoshizuna glanced at Yuqiuping and asked.
"I was just passing by by chance, and happened to hear the shouts of the adults in the house, so I just tried to persuade him." Yu Qiuping said with a smile, "After all, I am also the young master's brother Yili, and I don't want his family to fall apart."
Yu Qiuping's words made the people who had been noisy just turn red. It was really embarrassing for an outsider to hear their disrespectful remarks about the house governor so clearly. Originally, Yu Qiuping's behavior of visiting without permission was not very polite.
However, given the current special circumstances, Yu Qiuping is very likely to represent the position of the Imagawa family, so we still cannot be rude to him.
"So, Master Yuqiu, what do you think?" Asai Ryōchi asked in order to ease the embarrassment.
"Don't take high opinions seriously, it's just shallow opinions." Yu Qiuping shook his head, "I feel that the Asai family is not hopeless. Why don't you help the young eagle take off?"
Haibei Tsuna frowned and asked, "What do you mean by this? Lord Yuqiu, please speak clearly."
"Then I won't beat around the bush." Yu Qiuping slowly knelt down and looked at everyone present: "Since the master is weak, why don't you support the young master's succession?"
Yu Qiuping's words directly pierced the window paper in everyone's heart. In fact, everyone has this idea, deposing the weak and weak Jiuzheng, and establishing a virtuous and resolute young master who is bold and resolute at a young age. The complaints and curses just now
, this meaning was revealed both inside and outside the words. However, due to the constraints of face and loyalty, no one was embarrassed to bring up this topic first. But Yu Qiuping, as an outsider, could bring up this topic without any baggage, thus
This avoided everyone's embarrassment and facilitated a quick discussion on the matter. This was exactly the advice given to Yu Qiuping by Toshi Sena, who was good at this.
In Japan, if the old master is fatuous, it is not too deviant for the retainers to support the young master to succeed him. Therefore, although everyone was slightly distraught, they did not reprimand Yu Qiuping.
"Sama Yuqiu's remarks are a little too abrupt." Akao Kiyoshizuna did not want to be led by Yu Qiupei. As a retainer of the Asai family, it is indeed necessary for him to show his attitude towards such remarks that sow discord.
"Master Haibei asked me to make it clear. How dare you disobey me?" Yu Qiuping said with a smile, and defused Akao Kiyozuna's attack.
"Moreover," Yu Qiuping changed the subject, "If you dare, this may be the best choice for the Asai family at the moment."
"It's not outsiders' turn to dictate what choices the Asai family will make!" Yumori Kiyosada reprimanded, "Thank you, Yuqiu-sama, for worrying about it."
"I am not an outsider." Yu Qiuping smiled and shook his head, like a ball of cotton, taking off the attacks of everyone in the Asai family one by one, "I am not here as a general of the Imagawa family and the deputy of Sena Yushu.
But he comes as Lord Kenmasa’s Giri brother.”
"Since Yuqiu-sama wants to express his opinion, I am all ears." Tsunachika Kaiboku, who was gentler, said, "I don't know why you think that supporting the young master is the best choice for the Asai family?"
"Because the Asai family can't afford to delay it." Yu Qiuping said solemnly, "The Asai family and the Rokkaku family are both committed to Omi, and the two are in a state of ebb and flow. Now, under the leadership of His Majesty His Majesty, the Asai family dare not
If we compete with the Rokkaku family, we will only lose ground due to the infiltration of the ambitious Rokkaku Yoshihide, and the strength gap between the two will become wider and wider. Blindly showing weakness and delaying will only further weaken the Asai family."
"If you replace the young master Xianzheng who is eager to fight with the Rokkaku family at this time, and the Rokkaku family fights for life and death, there is still a small chance of winning. If you hesitate, wait until a few years later the Rokkaku family will be stronger, and the Asai family will be even more powerful.
They are weak, but they don’t even have a chance to fight to the death.” Yu Qiuping looked at everyone, “As far as I know, aren’t Sakata County and Inugami County already very likely to fall to the Rokkaku family?”
What Yu Qiuping said seems reasonable, but in fact it has a fatal flaw. That is, he only focused on Omi country and did not consider the possible impact of external forces. However, the situation of one and the other is ebb and flow.
The real deal.
The important ministers of the Asai family are not incompetent, and they naturally understand the pros and cons. However, it is too shameful to change the family governor under the persuasion of an outsider. Therefore, Akao Kiyozuna said: "What Yuqiu-sama means,
We understand. But the matter is serious and needs to be discussed carefully."
"In that case, I'll take my leave." Yu Qiuping completed Sena Shitoshi's instructions and prepared to leave. He believed that as long as the important ministers started discussing, they would definitely come to the same conclusion as in the previous life.
"However, if you are really interested, I hope you can consider the position of Young Master Xianzheng." Yu Qiuping cupped his hands and said: "His Royal Highness Xianzheng attaches great importance to justice and principles, and I am afraid he will not agree with military advice unless it is absolutely necessary.
Even if you reluctantly accept it, I'm afraid there will be a knot in your heart. I think that the most ideal way is for you to 'convince' His Highness Jiuzheng and let him take the initiative to live in seclusion and give up his throne to His Highness Xianzheng. In terms of ethics, there will be no
What's getting in the way."
"However, if we want to 'persuade' the lord, I'm afraid there will be a commotion in the city. Young Master..." Isono Yuanmasa hesitated. "I'm afraid he will notice the commotion."
"If you are worried like this, I can help you." Yu Qiuping said with a smile, "I can ask Your Highness Xianzheng to go outside the city to relax and make time for you all."
"Thank you very much." Haibei Tsuna said sincerely. Only Yu Qiuping's appointment with Asai Kenmasa would not arouse his thoughts. "If we decide to take action, we will come back and inform Yuqiu-sama."
"I have read the almanac, and it says that tomorrow is an auspicious day for the coup." Yu Qiuping laughed, "If you gentlemen can quickly discuss it tonight, we can take action tomorrow, but there will be God's blessing."
"Does even a coup have an auspicious day?" Everyone laughed dumbly, "I wonder what kind of god it is?"
"July 14th is naturally a good day for a coup." Yu Qiuping said goodbye, "That god is a god from southern France."
After Yu Qiuping left, the important ministers of the Asai family began serious discussions again.
In Kitaomi, the Asai family is not a monolithic existence, but more like a conglomeration of wealthy families, of which the Asai family is just the leader. Whether it is the three generals Kai Akaame, Isono Umasa, Anyoji clan and others
, all have a large territory. The wealthy families have a huge say in the family. If the important ministers unanimously oppose it, the family governor's opinions will not be implemented.
"Although Amaki Momiji is a bit abrupt, everyone must know what he said and it makes sense." Akao Kiyosuna said, "If the governor is allowed to compromise and surrender to the Rokkaku family like this, the Asai family will eventually become a subordinate of the Rokkaku family.
This is a small local wealthy family, maybe not even as good as the Pu Sheng family."
"Unless you plan to turn your back on Asai and join Rokkaku," Tsuna Tsuna glanced at everyone, "otherwise, supporting the young master and declaring war on the Rokkaku family who are constantly putting pressure on us is our best choice. Even if we can't win completely, we can still win.
We need to sign a more reasonable covenant, and we can no longer allow the Rokkaku family to exploit us."
"Damn, how could I betray the great kindness my lord has shown me?" Yumori Qingzhen scolded, "I have long disliked those grandsons of Minami Omi. They supported our young lord and beat them up hard.
One battle! Even if I lose, I will admit it! It is better than surrendering like this cowardly!"
"My young master is brave and courageous, and has the style of my late lord. I will never surrender to the Rokkaku family like my lord!" Isono Tamashira praised, "With all of you assisting me, I will be able to achieve the same career as my late lord.
Even if it doesn’t work, it will still show the Asai family’s martial name to the world!”
"My lord is so weak that he has lost the hearts of the people, but the young lord has always had a reputation as a brave man in his territory." Tsunayoshi Kaiboku analyzed, "If the young lord succeeds to the throne and recruits troops to start a war with the Rokkaku family, the renewed Asai family might be able to
Winning over many of the old members of the Asai family who have defected to the Rokkaku family. In this way, our chances of winning will be even greater."
"Everyone, do you have any opinions?" Akao Kiyosuna looked around at the other important ministers.
"I second the motion."
"I support the views of the three of you."
"I swear allegiance to Young Master Xianzheng to the death..."
…
After gaining the support of almost all the important ministers, General Kai Akame drafted a covenant and asked everyone to sign it, agreeing to jointly support Asai Kenmasa's succession to the throne and depose Asai Hisamasa as the governor of the family.
"Tomorrow, please ask Akao-sama, Amamori-sama and Anyangji-sama whose troops are around Otani Castle to lead troops into the castle town of Otani Castle. Do not enter the castle to save some face for the lord." Tsunachika Kaiboku arranged, "As well, please ask Asai.
Lord Ryochi is responsible for ensuring the safety of all of us. After everyone enters the city, we will all ask to see the lord together and force him to give up his throne."
"I will send someone to inform Lord Yuqiu later and ask him to invite the young master out of the city early tomorrow morning." Haibei Tsuna said, "If it doesn't make sense, please go back and prepare."
At the beginning of Haishi, Yu Qiuping, who was resting in the inn, received a secret letter from Haibei Tsuna. After reading it, Yu Qiuping gave it to Sena Shitoshi for review.
"It can be said that we are sure of it." Sena Shitoshi nodded after reading it, "Since the matter is imminent, we will wait until we have reached an agreement with the Asai family before going to Kyoto."
"It's just..." Sena Shitoshi pondered for a while and looked at Yu Qiuping in confusion: "Hongye, you are always cautious and cautious in your words and deeds. Why are you so proactive in trying such a risky thing this time?
?If it fails, there is a risk that the Imagawa family and the Asai family will turn against each other."
"Uh..." Yu Qiuping smiled awkwardly. This is the advantage of the time traveler to see the situation clearly. He reluctantly explained: "There are always times when people are bold! Besides, doesn't the Family Governor's Hall require me to make choices without regrets?
Chapter completed!
