In the golden autumn of October, the sky is as clear as the sky is cool and comfortable. The wild flowers on the roadside sway in the wind, and in the rice fields are piled up with piles of rice ears and hills piled up by the leaders.

According to the news from the Interior Government Pavilion, the harvest this year is good, especially in areas where the Luo family has vigorously promoted new crops and farming techniques. It is conservatively estimated that the harvest this year will be estimated to be 250,000 stones in Feiqian territory occupied by the Luo family, which was originally a stone height of about 305,000 stones.

This is a very high income. You should know that this also includes the income of the territory of Dongfeiqian and Nanfeiqian, which was just occupied by the Luo family for a short time. These areas have just experienced wars, and the fields in many areas have been damaged by the war, so the harvest this year is generally and even poor harvests. If these two areas with average income or even poor harvests have been fully promoted this year's laws, if the weather is good next year, it is estimated that Feiqian's income will be more than 350,000 stones. As the various policies of the Luo family deepen, the income will be further increased.

Masara was supposed to be happy with such a rich income, but after seeing a letter sent by Mori Takashi from Kyoto, Masarara seemed to be happy and sad.

Fortunately, the Luo family gave money and food to the court and the shogunate a good result. This trip not only made the Luo family famous in Kyoto, but also received commendation and official rewards from the court.

However, when Zhengliang saw the name of his official position, he couldn't smile bitterly. It turned out that the official position rewarded by the court and the shogunate to Zhengliang was actually "Dazai Shao Er".

Dazai Shaoyi is an official position in the Dazaifu. Dazaifu is a department that governs Kyushu local governments, and takes on all government affairs in Kyushu, including national defense, diplomacy, etc. The prince serves as a honorary commander. Dazai is a substantial commander. Since the right minister Sugawara Domain, the Dazaifu has always been a minister's crime and moved to the left. Since the Kamakura guardian Muto family, he has served with the Shaoqian family for generations.

So the one who served as Dazai Shao Ye was the young man who was still hiding in the Fenggo territory of Otomo's family. Poor guy, after losing his territory and the shogunate had no strength, he didn't even take him seriously. Now that people are not dead, their official positions are deprived and given to Masayoro.

But this official position is also a hot potato. Because Zhou Fang, who was fighting with the Shaoer clan, applied to the court for his superior Dazhao, to the court to seek legitimate control of Kitakyushu and obtained permission. Therefore, nominally, Yoshitaka Ouchi was still Masayoshi's superior official.

After thinking about it carefully, the court actually did not upgrade Masara's official position in the court. Although Dazai Shao Er was already in the five official positions in the ranks, which was several levels higher than Masara's previous second lieutenant Zuoemon, with the autonomous management of the Dazaifu for several generations, this Dazai Shao Er was actually a bit like the local official position in Kyushu. Just like the difference between regional secretary and state ministries and commission officials.

At the same time, the shogunate's service position was not improved, and Masara still guarded the former guardian and the Kazuo Guardian. The issue of security in the imperial area occupied by Masarara was most concerned about was not resolved. It seemed that the court and the shogunate did not want to offend the Luo family and the Otomo family, so they simply delayed it again and again, neither answering the Luo family nor the Otomo family.

However, considering the contributions of the Luo family to the court and the shogunate, he finally got a local official named Dazai Shaoer for Masaru. However, in addition to the reward, this local official position also exudes a strong sense of checks and balances, just as the shogunate gave Masaru a post to guard the generations of the Burma.

You should know that Yoshitaka Ouchi is now Dazai Dayi. When he learned that Masaruo had obtained the official position of Dazai Shaoer, Yoshitaka Ouchi would definitely think that he had just driven away the original Dazai Shaoer and Dongshang, and now you have made me a new Dazai Shaoer. Don’t you give me eye drops? At least it has caused a gap between the relationship between the two families of Dazai and Luo.

There is also the reaction of the other Kyushu tyrants, especially the Otomo family. Now that Masara took office as Dazai Shaoer, the Otomo family was nominally controlled by the Luo family. This made Otomo Yoshiki, who had suffered from Masara's losses in the post of Tuomo, definitely became jealous. So the friction with the Luo family became even greater.

You should know that after Shintaro (Otomo Sorin), who was only four years old at the time, was appointed as the guardian of Kitabashi, the Otomo family then sent troops to Shintaro to fight fiercely with Otomo. As a result, Otomo lost first and then won, preventing the expansion of Kyushu, the Otomo family, which was constantly developing its power in Kitakushu at that time.

Two years ago, when the position of the Ichigo Guardian was appointed to Masayora, the Otomo family sent troops to Himemaki last year and fought with the Oui family and the Luo family one after another.

Checks and balances are all for checks and balances. Although the prestige of the court and the shogunate have been reduced again and again, they still cannot stop their ambitions in trying to revitalize the prestige of the court and the shogunate, and even more so they cannot stop them from using such means to check and balance the development of the great powers in various places.

Masara believed that as soon as the latest news of the imperial court and the shogunate's appointment came out, the Ouchi family and the Otomo family would have different actions.

"Hey, are you planning to focus on developing for a while? It seems that others don't have such plans!" Zhengliang said helplessly.

"Lord, how about the family giving up this position?" Honda Masato said. When other retainers were not present, Masayoshi Masayoshi allowed the young surname around him to express his views on some government affairs at will, but he was not allowed to transmit information outside the meeting hall, otherwise he would be severely punished or even executed.

"No." Masayoshi smiled and shook his head. This future schizophrenic minister is still a little immature. Since he came for the purpose of checks and balances, how could he give you the opportunity to refuse? Anyway, the court and the shogunate can directly and unilaterally announce the reward of his position to Masayoshi. At that time, if Masayoshi does not accept the reward, he will be suspicious of disrespectful to the court and the shogunate. This will leave a verbal statement to others, and will definitely be criticized by other powerful people, and may even become an excuse for others to attack the Luo family.

Besides, people who are not jealous are mediocre people. Anyway, if you want to dominate, you will inevitably collide with the surrounding powerful people. Then you will see who is afraid of whom.

"Send the order to ask Kakuma Ishisong, Yamamoto Kawamoto Kazuka and Heiji, the family's elder Togo Heiji, to come to see him." Masara then ordered. In addition to discussing the official positions of Dazai Shaoer, the shogunate, to welcome the representatives of the public.

In a letter sent by Shenglong to send people back, it was also mentioned that the court and the shogunate also sent two people to visit Luo's house this time.
