Warring States Eagle

As an envoy to Nizi's family, he must be wise and brave.Neither can the main family fall behind in the alliance negotiations with the Nizi family because it appears weak, nor can the alliance fail because it is too tough.

The original candidate in Zhengliang's mind was Yoshioka Nagasuke, the former Otomo family retainer who had just joined the main family, but this proposal was opposed by Yamamoto Kansuke and others.The reason for their opposition is also very simple. Although Yoshioka Chosuke played a great role in the process of the Luo family's attack on the Bungo country, he is an old minister of the Otomo family after all, and this mission is related to the Luo family. In the overall situation, Yoshioka Chosuke is not suitable for such an important task.Obviously, the retainers of the Luo family still don't trust these new retainers very much.

At this time, Duanmu Qingzheng, who had been silent before returning to Luo's house, suddenly offered to take on this important task.Previously, as a hostage in the alliance between the Luo family and the Ouchi family, Duanmuqing stayed in the Ouchi family as a guest.However, when the Ouchi family decided to tear up the covenant with the Luo family, Duanmu Qingzheng, who had gradually become intoxicated by the wine of the Ouchi family, did not respond. If he couldn't escape, he was put under house arrest.

His mistake this time almost caused the house governor Zhengliang to be killed in an ambush.He has always blamed himself very much for this. Even after returning home after the previous peace talks between the Luo family and the Ouchi family, he almost locked himself at home to reflect.If it wasn't related to the foreign affairs of the family this time, he wouldn't come here on his own initiative.Now he decided to take the initiative to take on the important task of going to Nizi's house to make up for his mistakes.

Duanmu Qingzheng's request.After a little deliberation, everyone agreed.At the same time, Zhengliang will also be familiar with the Nanman language.The Ming people who are good at interacting with the Nanman people are also Chen Tianjie, who is responsible for the diplomacy with the Nanman people, and accompanied Duanmu Qingzheng to the Nizi family.

The main reason why Chen Tianjie was dispatched at the same time was that the fleet of Zhu Qinfeng, a Nanbarian who had always been friends with the Luo family, and Zuo Moyang, a businessman from the Ming Dynasty, happened to be visiting Miho Port in Izumo, where the Nizi family was located.Although Nizi's family is powerful in Izumo, they inevitably lack the means to deal with the Southern barbarians and Ming businessmen.

Sending Chen Tianjie there, on the one hand, can help the Nizi family deal with the Nanman people and Ming merchants, so as to gain the favor of the Nizi family; There are also vassals who deal with Chinese merchants. Moreover, they are from the Ming Dynasty, which will definitely shock the Nizi family.)In the end, Zheng Liang returned a handwritten letter and asked Chen Tianjie to hand it to Zhu Qinfeng, asking him to take advantage of the opportunity to help the Luo family back up locally and increase the power of the Luo family during negotiations.In return, the Luo family will naturally help him make a lot of money in the local area.

After discussing the external strategy.Zhengliang turned his goal to the country again.The so-called outside the soil must first secure the inside.The target of Zheng Liang's "Annei" this time is the temples and shrines in Bungo.After learning the lesson from Chikuzen, Masara worried that these local temples and shrines would collude with foreign Otomo forces to create turmoil in Bungo.Therefore, Zhengliang cut the mess with a sharp knife, and let the two cavalry, Isano Masaru and Kosaka Masanobu, as the main force. With the assistance of the Cabinet, they forcibly enforced the Luo family's temple and shrine management laws, and all those who resisted were killed.

For Masara's decision about temples and shrines.Although the retainers were a little worried, they also knew that at the moment when they had just experienced the Chikuzen rebellion, how they tried to persuade them was just asking for fun, so they didn't directly raise objections, but instead proposed to let Zheng Liang Proposal to marry Otomo Yoshikam's daughter. [

In fact, the retainers made such a suggestion.Zheng Liang also felt normal.In the Warring States Period, it was very normal to use marriage to strengthen the rule and maintain the interests between the lord and his retainers (for example, Yoshitaka Ouchi recently gave away his adopted daughter Kotobuki. The third daughter of Motozu, and Motozu's eldest son, Takamoto, entered into a marriage contract and became the main wife).

If Zhengliang married the daughter of Bungo former ruler Otomo Yoshikan at this time, there would be two advantages.First, it can appease the local people and make them feel that the Luo family will ban the Otomo family and begin to rule Bungo, and the act of the family governor of the Luo family marrying the previous king is just to express to them that they will continue to rule them as before, Then let the Luo family's rule in Bungo get a righteous name.The second is to let the loyal retainers of the original Otomo family transfer their loyalty to the previous suzerain to Zheng Liang through Otomo Yoshikam's daughter, and at the same time make them feel that allegiance to Zheng Liang means loyalty to the son-in-law of the previous suzerain, and they will also Become at ease.

Zheng Liang did not object to the retainer's suggestion.When he first came to this world, due to the influence of his previous life, he thought in his heart that he only needed to marry a wife.But as a house governor, it is obviously impossible in such an era.

As the Luo family continues to grow, and Zhengliang is only 25 years old at this time, he will always get a lot of women either actively or passively because of interests and the needs of ruling (than Nobuhide Oda) A total of 24 women and [-] children; Yoshimoto Imagawa, who has only inherited the Imagawa family for a few years, also has more than a dozen women).For such a situation, Zheng Liang has fully adapted, not to mention, for a man, having more women is a good thing in itself.

Of course, under normal circumstances, if conditions permit, Zheng Liang will still ask the woman for her opinion first.Of the Otomo Yoshikami who stayed at Otomo's house before his death, there were only three daughters left (the others were all married).The eldest daughter was only 14 years old at this time, the second daughter was 13 years old, and the youngest daughter was less than one year old. The youngest daughter was the biological daughter of Shioshimaru's mother, while the other two daughters were born to the mother of Otomoyi Town. They were all staying at Shioichi Maru's mother and son's house in the castle town of Hizen Gishizan Castle at this time.After receiving the message conveyed by Togo Heiji, the eldest daughter Otomomatsu expressed willingness to marry Zheng Liang, and would assist Zheng Liang to visit various places in Bungo in order to help the Luo family to appease the territory of Bungo as soon as possible, but she also proposed at the same time One condition is that she hopes not to disturb the life of her sister Otomo Ning, so that her sister can settle down in the castle town of Kishidake Mountain with peace of mind.It seemed that she was sacrificing herself to protect her sister.

For Otomosong's request, Zheng Liang naturally agreed, and even told the other party that this marriage, if the other party is unwilling, can be regarded as a superficial marriage, and the other party can completely keep living alone after marrying Zheng Liang Life.

Although he has adapted to this era, Zhengliang still insists on some basic principles.
