Warring States Eagle

Thinking of Matsuura Takanobu's mother, Luo Shi Teruliang naturally thought of many mothers in the family. -Top-point-small-speak-Among them, Teruhara's own biological mother is the daughter of the family's old Togo Heiji, and his father's wife Togo Ju.

In addition, according to Quan Da Nayan, Yumen Xuanyin's son Zhong Yumen Xuanxiu's daughter Guiji is the concubine of his father Zhengliang, who mainly helps his father keep in touch with many officials in Kyoto.Otomo Song, the daughter of Otomo Yoshikam, the former governor of the Otomo family, was also the concubine of his father Masara. This mother also assisted his father in coordinating the relationship with the former Otomo family who surrendered to the family.

Matsumiko, Tsuru, Butterfly, Hatano Yui, Taijiu Ryo and other mothers who followed and served his father from the beginning are his father's concubines. By his side, the retainers of the Ye Gaoshan lineage who helped his father establish the family fortune of the Luo family.

With the expansion of the Luo family, Sagara Risa, the daughter of Sagara Taketo, the important minister of the family and the representative of the former Ouchi family who surrendered to the main family, and Aso Nozomi, the daughter of the governor of the Chikuzen Kunuko family, were also concubines of the father.

Although these mothers each represent different factions in the family, because they are very clear about what their father Zhengliang wants from them, they never compete with each other for jealousy, and they never intervene in the family's political affairs.At present, these mothers are mainly responsible for the management of the Luo family's commercial house that belongs to the Luo family's private treasury. At the same time, under the authorization of their father Zheng Liang, they keep abreast of the management of the orphans of soldiers in their family and the education of their children, and supervise the internal affairs of the cabinet. aspects of affairs.

In addition, Huiliang has several aunts in name (all adopted as righteous sisters by his father Zhengliang).Among them, Taijiu Ying, the younger sister of his mother Taijiuling, is the main wife of the important minister Yoshida Shigemasa in the family, and has now given birth to a two-year-old boy for the Yoshida family.When my father went to the Ming country, he met him.Zhi Ji, the younger sister of Shi Shi, a native of Ming Dynasty and an important partner of Luo's House.This aunt is the wife of Masao Kinoshita, a senior official in the family.Also gave birth to a five-year-old boy for the Kinoshita family and became the legitimate son of the Kinoshita family.The younger sister of the family's important minister, Kuna Tsuna, and former father Masaragi's maid, Lily, became the main wife of the family's important minister, Masahiro Isono.As for the last aunt, Otomo Ning, she is the younger sister of Otomo Song's mother, and now she is living in Xuefu City with the wife and concubine of Otomo Yoshikam, the former Otomo family governor.The above-mentioned aunts are all Huiliang's aunts, and they have never participated in the political affairs of the family.In fact, the family members cannot intervene in Luo's family affairs unless the family governor personally orders them.This is already the family rule of the Luo family.

As for Huiliang's brothers and sisters, the older sister Miki (formerly known as Tamiko) is the daughter of her mother Matsumiko.She, together with her elder sister Nohime from the Mino country of Honshu, is collectively referred to as Lord Onihime of the Luo family by the people in the territory of the Luo family.The vicious reputation of these two sisters gave even Huiliang a headache.Fortunately, these two elder sisters have been busy building the Luo family's red ghost princess team supported by the Luo family's houses recently, so they didn't come to disturb Hui Liang and others who are younger brothers.The current main members of this red oniji fan team are Yuanjiu Bhikkhuni (the family's fierce general Hyakutake Ken and the unmarried main room), Sagara Chiyoju (the governor of Nanfeihou Guoxiang Liang's family appointed by his father Masaragi himself) ), Takahashi Mi (the governor of the Takahashi family, a local aristocratic family in Chikuzen, designated by his father himself).In addition, Mori Kasei, a fierce general from the Mino country, and the main assistant Shengxiu (the founder of Naginata Jutsu Anazawa), the naginata master of the Roche University Women's College, followed this women's team as guards.

And Huiliang himself.As the son of the main wife, Dong Xiangju, he became the eldest son of the family.In particular, he has been clearly established by his father as the successor of the next family governor. When he was in Yuanfu, he was bestowed with the word "Hui" by the current shogun Ashikaga Yoshiki, so he was named Luo Shi Huiliang.At present, he is receiving the teachings of his family's important ministers such as Takago Heiji, Kakukuma Ishimune, Yamamoto Kansuke, Yoshioka Nagasuke, Kinoshita Masao, and Yoshida Shigemasa, while following his father in handling family affairs.

As for his father's intention to establish himself as the heir of the family early on, as he grew older and became familiar with and understood in handling affairs, he himself has already realized this.After all, as a new but rapidly expanding family, there will inevitably be different factions in the family. In this way, it is natural to quickly establish an heir, thereby stabilizing the morale of everyone in the family.However, this also increased the pressure on Huiliang as the successor of the family governor, so Huiliang always studied hard and tried his best to get the approval of more retainers, so that he could take over the important task of family governor from his father Zhengliang in the future.At the same time, I also hope to participate in more home affairs, so as to get more opportunities for exercise.And his father Zhengliang seems to have seen his thoughts, so since he took Yuanfu, he deliberately handed over a lot of government affairs at home to him, and at the same time taught him a lot of experience and knowledge in handling government affairs, even his father Zhengliang When going out to fight, he will pass on some experience and knowledge to him through letters from time to time.

In addition to himself, as the second boy born to his father, Luo Shi Xinliang, the younger brother, is also under a lot of pressure.After all, judging from the current performance of his younger brother Xinliang, he is not weaker than Huiliang himself.At the beginning, under the arrangement of their father Zhengliang, the two of them studied with the same teacher, and even participated in his father's evaluation meeting as bystanders at the same time.As Huiliang's younger brother, Xinliang has always seemed very active.It's just that after Huiliang was established as the successor of the family governor, his younger brother Xinliang's relationship with him became more and more polite, and sometimes he even seemed a little reserved.In Huiliang's view, it is estimated that the teacher at home and Xinliang's biological mother He personally taught his younger brother Xinliang this aspect of etiquette, so it gradually became like this.

Although Huiliang didn't wish this to be the case, after all, as they grow older, there will always be distinctions between the two of them, the elders and the younger, and the monarch and his subjects. In order to maintain the majesty of the family governor and the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects, he has no choice but to accept such a situation. The situation is gone.

In addition to sister Mihime and second brother Nobuyoshi, Teruyoshi also has third younger brother Motomaru and fourth younger brother Yoshinomaru.Among them, Genohmaru, the third younger brother born by his mother Hatano Yui, is nine years old this year. In the future, he will be named Matsuura Takanobu in the future, so as to inherit the position of the family governor of the Matsuura family, a wealthy family in Matsuura County, Hizen Kingdom, who has lost the family governor for a long time.The younger brother was a troublemaker, as he is today.He even pretended to be his father Zhengliang.At the same time, he speaks in the language spoken by Teruhara's grandfather Togo Heiji.It's really tricky.Fortunately, among the many brothers and sisters in the family, sister Meiji and Huiliang were able to control this troublemaker.

Except for the mischievous third brother Yuan Wangwan, who is only four years old this year.The fourth younger brother Yoshinomaru, who was taken care of by all the mothers, was born to his mother Sagara Risa.In the future, after Yoshinomaru Yuanfu, he will be named Sagara Masahiro, and will inherit the position of family governor of the Sagara clan.

In addition to several younger brothers, Huiliang also has two younger sisters. Among them, the younger sister Luo Shichun (Chun Ji), born to his mother Die, is nine years old.It may be because my sister Miki has had a great influence on the mothers.Therefore, the education of younger sister Chunji is supervised by all the mothers personally, and they have been controlling the contact time between sister Miji and younger sister Chunji (for fear that older sister will teach younger sister Chunji's ethos of ghost princess), so younger sister Chun Ji was a very gentle and skillful little beauty, and was even called the pearl of the Luo family by all the retainers in the family and Yu Sheng, the territory.

And the last younger sister is Bo Duoying, who was killed by Mrs. Baimei, the wife of the last family governor of Hizen Kingdom (Mother Taijiu Ling's sister Taijiu Fei, who was persecuted by her family and died in Iki Island. After her death, the white plum blossom in her body was not burned to death, but a beautiful white plum blossom began to bloom, so she was named the daughter of Mrs. Baimei by Rihui's father who took over Bodo.Later, she was adopted by her father Zhengliang as an adopted daughter, and now she is only six years old.It was also raised by the mothers themselves.

For Huiliang, among the many brothers and sisters, because the younger brothers and younger sisters are younger and are taken by the mothers most of the time, only the second brother Xinliang and the third brother Yuanwangmaru are usually with him. So the relationship between the three brothers is very good (as for the elder sister Meiji, for Huiliang, it is more of a nightmare. So he hopes that he will not meet his sister Meiji).

However, today Huiliang and his second brother Xinliang had the opportunity to come out for a breath of air because they had just completed a teacher's assessment, and the third brother Yuanwangmaru has a learning task at Luo's Academy today, although he and his second brother When my younger brother was leading the horse in the stable and was about to set off, the third brother Yuanwangmaru once begged him to go out together, but he clearly refused. Now that the third brother Yuanwangmaru appeared here, it was obvious that this guy had played truant again.This is not the first time he has skipped school.If all the mothers find out, not only the troublemaker will be punished, but even himself as the elder brother will also be punished for mixing up with the troublemaker.Thinking of this, Huiliang couldn't help but get a headache, and then Huiliang asked his third brother Yuan Wangwan with a dark face:

"Why are you here?"

Facing his elder brother Teruyoshi's questioning, the third younger brother Yuanwangmaru immediately rolled his eyes and said with a low smile, "My lord brother, I have already had someone tell my mother that today I followed my elder brother to call to learn how to ride a horse."

"you?"

After hearing the answer from his third younger brother Yuanwangmaru, Huiliang almost died of anger.It is obvious that the troublemaker, the third brother Yuan Wangwan, used him as an excuse to play truant. I believe that after returning today, as an elder brother, he will definitely be severely taught by several mothers.

"Hey!" Huiliang, who had been used as a shield by the third brother Yuanwangmaru several times, was too lazy to say anything to the third brother. Instead, he looked at the second brother who was studying with the fake beard made by the third brother. Brother Luo Shi Xinliang said, "How about it, second brother, have you decided what your father said before?"

In fact, today Huiliang took the initiative to go out for a horse race with his third brother Xinliang. Apart from relaxing, he also hoped to persuade his father's previous mission again. After all, this mission of his father is not only dangerous, but also far away from the family territory. However, once something happens, he can only rely on himself. Even his father, Zhengliang, does not want his second brother Xinliang to participate in this task related to the future layout of the family in the entire Warring States period.

After Xinliang heard his elder brother Huiliang's question, he was taken aback for a moment, and then a sincere and warm smile appeared on his face.He felt deep concern from his elder brother Huiliang's words.After thinking for a while, Xinliang faced his elder brother Huiliang again, nodded resolutely, and said: "I have made a decision, and I will follow all the adults to my father in Bungo country to wait for the arrangement of my father. .”

"Okay." Looking fiercely into the eyes of the second brother Xinliang, and seeing a determination in the eyes of the second brother, Huiliang had no choice but to nod helplessly.After all, my younger brother has his own decision, and the younger brother's task is indeed of great impact to the family, so in the end Huiliang had no choice but to agree with his younger brother's decision.

"What? To my lord father? My lord brother, can you take me with you?"

After listening to the conversation between Huiliang and Xinliang's two elder brothers, the third brother Yuanwangmaru immediately looked at Xinliang expectantly and asked.Yuanwangmaru, who has long been tired of the teaching of the teachers and the business knowledge of several mothers, now likes to go to a place far away from Xuefu City. Now that his brother Nobuyoshi is going to Bungo Country, he naturally hopes to be able to Followed to go together.

"No." Before Xinliang came back, Huiliang directly refused, "Okay, that's it for today. You guys still have to go to your mother today to learn some affairs handling knowledge of Luo's House?"

"Ah?"

After hearing the words of his elder brother Teruyoshi, the third younger brother Motomaru withered away like an eggplant in doubles. The expectation of going to Bungo country with his elder brother was diluted by the fact that several mothers would guide them to handle the affairs of the Luo family. up.

"Your Highness." Just as the three brothers were talking, a black eagle flashed out from the nearby woods.After Heiying came to Huiliang, he bent his knees and reported: "Master Dongxiang requests His Highness to return to the castle tower in the city quickly. In addition, the information sent back from the capital has also been sent to the castle tower."

"Okay." Huiliang nodded immediately after hearing the words. Since he is the heir of the family governor, he naturally has no rest time, so he immediately signaled to the two brothers beside him, and at the same time walked towards the horses grazing by the river .

After getting on his horse, he turned his head to look at his third brother Yuan Wangwan who was still there, and said with a smile, "Come on."

"Oh, oh, oh... I'm riding a horse!" Yuanwangmaru immediately cheered happily, knowing that it was his brother who invited him to ride a horse together.For a moment, he seemed to forget all his troubles. (To be continued..)
