Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Emergency Medical Treatment

Since the morning, Katagiri Kazumoto locked himself in his mansion in Osaka Castle, busy writing something. It is neither a letter, nor a diary, nor is it a project record of the Great Buddha Hall of Fangguang Temple, which is about to be completed recently.From time to time, he put down the pen and sighed, then thought again, rubbed the ink, licked the nib of the pen, and continued to write.In fact, he was thinking that if there was a war between Osaka and Edo, he could leave some records of his meeting with Ieyasu in Junfu. Last fall, he was summoned to Junfu. "I want to give Xiu Lai a seal of 10,000 shi in Hanoi." When Ieyasu said this, for some reason, Qi Yuan couldn't help but fight a cold war. "In fact, there is no one else. When I repaired the Buddha before, I didn't give a penny, so it should be regarded as a kind of compensation." Dang Jiakang added this sentence, and the more he felt fearful, the reason why he was afraid of Jiakang was because At that time, there was a rumor circulating in Osaka: "The Great Imperial Palace will eventually wipe out the city of Osaka." This rumor has even spread among women.In this way, the first person in the city to be pushed to the forefront is naturally Qianji.

Qian Ji still doesn't know why this wind blows and where it blows.Okubo Chang'an's death had nothing to do with her at all, let alone the intentions of foreign believers.She became the mother, sister, and playmate of the little girl born to Ami. At this time, another woman gave birth to Xiu Lai's child, a boy named Guosong.Qianji didn't even ask Guosong's biological mother's background.Hideyori got involved with the maid from Ise, and let her give birth to a child. Since this kind of thing happened, Qianji was really helpless. She seemed to think that it was a matter of course, and she had neither doubts nor jealousy.

On the contrary, Hideyori felt embarrassed, "Don't raise this child here, it's best to discuss it with the High Court." He asked the wife of Kyogoku's vassal Tanaka Rokuzaemon to be a nurse, and planned to take the child to him soon. The child is fostered at Tanaka's home.As a result, the women all became faintly hostile towards Qian Ji. At this time, Ieyasu specially called Katagiri Kamoto to Junfu, and talked about the sealing.And Yuan is like sitting on pins and needles, which is really natural. "There is a groundless rumor circulating in the world, and you may have heard it too." When the conversation was almost over, and Ieyasu was talking about this to Katagiri Kamoto while holding a drink, Katagiri's heart had settled down: What did Ogosho want to say? Let me put it this way, anyway, for the Toyotomi family, I have made up my mind, and I have a clear conscience.But Ieyasu didn't question Katagiri, but unexpectedly discussed with him, as if he was talking to a Tokugawa retainer.

"I think it's time for Hideyori to leave Osaka Castle. What do you think?" Ieyasu said nonchalantly. Qi Yuan was so embarrassed that he even trembled, "My lord, I... I am... the old man who grew up in the Toyotomi family since he was a child." "That's why I discussed it with you. You and I don't need to hide things like this needlessly." "But... even if it's not like this, the Osaka Castle already suspects that Ichimasa is having an affair with Tokugawa." "Mayor of the city. This is not just a matter of the Toyotomi family. This matter concerns the safety of the world."

"Because of this, I dare not discuss with adults." "Where are you talking? You seem to be confusing public and private matters. Of course you are the elder of the Toyotomi family, but you are also the name of the general's subordinates." "this is." "Or, divide your salary from the Toyotomi family and return the territory to the imperial court... Hey, this is of course just a joke. However, once the world is in turmoil, have you ever thought about how much trouble it will cause? " "This...I am often worried." "While you are Toyotomi's vassal, you are also a famous name in the world. You should always keep the responsibility of preventing the world's riots in mind... I hope you will remember these good things in your heart and return to me. If I sit idly by, Hideyori will be killed Those leeches sting and involuntarily get involved in the vortex of war, what do you think?"

"but……" "If you let Hideyori stay in Osaka Castle, you won't be able to prevent it. Of course, I'm not saying that Hideyori is hostile or has two intentions. It can be said that these are all the sins brought by that city." "If this is the case, please rest assured, my lord. If you want to fight a war, the most important thing is the military salary. Although some arrogant people are watching, there will be no money in Osaka soon. Waiting for the restoration of Fangguang Temple, After the giant bell of the Great Buddha Temple was completed, the warehouse in Osaka was almost empty."

"Just this is not enough to make people feel at ease. I have carefully considered these. I think that for the stability of the world and the survival of the Toyotomi clan, there is no choice but to let Hideyori out of the city. Let him now Let's go to Koriyama Castle first. I also hope that you can give up your personal feelings and think about it. If everyone instigates you to mess up Osaka, then I will have to ignore your personal feelings and be detrimental to the Toyotomi family. Even if you haven't reached that point yet , but if the situation is as it is now, Osaka continues to recruit foreign believers and ronin into the city, even if only one arrow is shot, the nature of the matter will suddenly change. The problem of salary. You have to think clearly, what Yixiu Lai is currently receiving, plus the 10,000 stones sealed today, is 667,400 stones. I hope you will think about it, how to put these family properties Pass it on to Toyotomi's descendants intact, so as to persuade the old minister to think things through clearly, so that Hideyori's mother and son will also understand. I beg you, Shizheng..."

"Even if your lord says so, I'm afraid..." Qi Yuan hurriedly replied, "The current situation is no longer under the control of the next person." As soon as the words came out, he regretted a little: Maybe Jiakang wanted to know these things on purpose , just came to test.If that was the case, he would have fallen for it obediently. "Oh? The situation has reached the point where you can't do anything?" "It's... it's... it's not hopeless..." Ai Ai got up in the Yuan Dynasty. "So, we can't just leave it alone. In this situation, what is required is extraordinary patience. Now, Osaka firmly believes that the biggest allies are Takayama Ukon and Sanada Yukimura, right?"

"Yes. In addition..." Qi Yuan resolutely counterattacked, and said, "There is also Mr. Songping Shangsuke. Maybe this is just an illusion. But I think, once the banner is raised in Osaka, Mr. Songping Shangsuke, Mr. Yi Daluo Shouzi will echo each other from afar." "Hmm." Ieyasu nodded earnestly, without denying it, he just murmured, "Oh, huh? Is there such a rumor?" "Not only that. It is rumored that if everyone works together to defend Daban City, the Banguo fleet will arrive at the coast in a short time. Each ship will be equipped with at least a hundred cannons. There will be no fewer than three such ships. A large number of new muskets will be brought in, which is not the same as the Maori army helping Honganji Temple..."

"Who spread such a thing?" "Ichimasa is not very clear. It may be a foreign believer, or someone from the Date family. It is said that Changchang Hasekura has already driven Sodero and Viscaino from Tsukiura to Banguo. The rescuers have gone. This was arranged long before Okubo was alive...they seem to be convinced of it." The reason why Katagiri Kazumoto even revealed these is to prove to Ieyasu that he is powerless.Not only that, he might also want to use these gossips to dispel Ieyasu's consideration of moving the seal, but the result is just the opposite. "Huh? Things have come to this point? In this way, putting a large number of troops into Daban City is equivalent to holding the inauguration ceremony for Fangguang Temple?"

Hearing Ieyasu's chanting, Yuan's heart was as cold as ice.He wanted to divert Ieyasu's attention, but accidentally told the truth.Ono Xiu and others did have such a plan: to hold a grand ceremony for the completion of the Great Buddha Hall, and in the name of visiting, gather the wanderers from all over the place to the top, and then let them enter the city directly. Katagiri Kamoto shuddered.Ieyasu is worthy of being a famous general who has experienced many battles, and he saw right away that the completion ceremony of the Great Buddha Hall of Fangguang Temple would be used.He couldn't help but said: "My lord, I implore my lord, can the transfer of title be postponed?" "Oh, I don't know if there are other ways to prevent unburned..." "I have an idea." You can use the fact itself as a trump card—Qi Yuan didn't know how many times he had thought in his heart, "During the inauguration ceremony of Fangguang Temple, Qi Yuan's plan to keep the Taige in Daban City has been exhausted." What has been done is made public. Ten thousand shi can support two hundred and fifty soldiers, and 650,000 shi can support more than 16,000 people, but now, no matter what, it is impossible to support so many people. Therefore, I hope They can reduce their personnel, including their respective retainers and handymen. The number must be less than 10,000. Otherwise, the Toyotomi family's financial resources will not be sustainable. Tell them the cost issues one by one, and they will not understand. Hugh Speaking of hiring ronin, all his ambitions will be wiped out because of the lack of military pay." "It makes sense." Ieyasu was also quite moved, "If the total number of people is less than 10,000, how dare they raise the flag of rebellion?" "Therefore, for the sake of the city, the matter of moving the seal will be postponed for a while." "Are you asking me to wait and see? But Shizheng, I think you are very clear that people who have experienced troubled times often have the conceit of being one man in charge and one man in charge. In fact, I have always maintained this attitude Fight the world." "yes." "If all 10,000 soldiers are dominated by this kind of delusion, they will be intoxicated with themselves and regard themselves as an army of tens of thousands. Therefore, even if only 10,000 people are left, it is still too many. I want to get those who want to enter Daban City, The vagrants who are extremely conceited have been caught outside the city to get rid of the root of the disaster. Therefore, you should stop entangled in the transfer of the title, and try to persuade Xiu Lai's mother and son not to let them seek their own death." Katagiri Kazumoto asked tremblingly: "Then, the matter of adding ten thousand stones..." "You worry too much, this matter... will naturally be judged by the general." "People's hearts are not iron and stone, and there is always some emotion. I worry about the future of Toyotomi from the bottom of my heart. I hope you will pass on all these to Hideyori mother and son." Mrs. Dian was quite knowledgeable, and when Qiyuan told her about Ieyasu's intentions, she burst into tears with emotion.However, the flames of the uprising between the ministers and the Seven Hands had spread, and it was beyond Katagiri Kemoto's ability to stop it. Ryoji Ono, who is usually quite sensible, has almost become the old Ishida Mitsunari at this time. In the eyes of Katagiri Kazumoto, the three achievements of Sekihara during the war were defeated by stubborn opinions.After Mr. Hideyoshi died, Sancheng suddenly lost his mind.Ieyasu gradually took over the power of the world with his strength, and all the generals vented their dissatisfaction on Sancheng, even to the point of wanting to get rid of it quickly.Unfortunately, Maeda Toshiie, the only one who could shelter him, passed away again.As a result, Sancheng was caught in a dilemma: either he retired by himself, or he killed himself by defending the Toyotomi clan.Thirty percent chose the latter according to their own temperament. Like Sancheng at that time, the current governor is also full of delusions. Everyone in Daban City regards the chief as the face of Mrs. Yodo, and they despise him so much that he gradually loses his mind, and he becomes more and more anxious. Just after the Sekigahara War ended, when Jichang was sent back to Osaka by Ieyasu, there was no such situation. "Everything has nothing to do with Mrs. Yodo and Mr. Hideyori. It is all caused by the stubbornness of Shaosuke Jibu and Otani Criminal Department..." He passed Ieyasu's words to Osaka. It can be said that he gave Osaka Castle a way to survive. Qi Yuan thought, this is really a sad illusion.Needless to say, it was Ieyasu's mercy that saved Osaka, but the governor who came to convey Ieyasu's mercy gradually developed an illusion amidst the gratitude of everyone, as if this result was obtained by sacrificing his life.When Hideyori went to visit Ieyasu in Nijo Castle, although the mayor was extremely reluctant, he still understood the fact that he was by no means an important minister comparable to Kato, Fukushima, Asano and others. Just a favorite... This kind of emotion even surpassed Sancheng's loneliness after Hideyoshi passed away. At this time, Okubo's death blew up an unexpected wind, a wind that affected the survival of foreign schools.Moreover, this trend immediately spread from Akashi Sobe, priest Torres, Paul, etc. to Hayami Kaimori, Watanabe Naisuke, Ibaraki Dansho, Kurita Kihachiro and others.This flame that wants to use Osaka Castle as the base camp of martyrdom cannot fail to burn the extremely depressed Ono Zhichang.However, Ono Zhichang is not Ishida Mitsunari.Sancheng has the ability to issue a message to the world, and to issue a voice to Ieyasu, "I ask who is in the hands of the righteousness", but the governor has neither momentum nor strength.However, the big tree Taiko that Sancheng relied on at the time has passed away, and Zhichang still has his own backer-Xiurai's biological mother, Mrs. Yodo.Besides, Yuan Ji was already disheartened, other things were fine, except for the matter of the boudoir, he, an outsider, could do nothing... Since Hideyori turned twenty, the authority of Osaka Castle has been quickly transferred from the hands of Mrs. Yodo to the people around Hideyori.This naturally aroused the anxiety of Ono Zhichang.But he didn't jump out to point fingers, but kept planning to give Mrs. Dian a chance to speak.He didn't encourage Mrs. Dian, he just blew into her ears some topics that Mrs. Dian was very concerned about, even if it made her unhappy, he still wanted her to intervene.For example, after sending Watanabe Neizosuke to Mount Kudo in Kishu, he said, "I heard that there was a big commotion in Edo." "commotion?" "There is internal strife in Tokugawa. It is said that the sixth son of the Great Imperial Palace, Mr. Zhonghui, tried to overthrow the general after the death of the Great Imperial Palace." Similar sayings were by no means unheard of before, and naturally Mrs. Dian was immediately attracted. "Really? There is such a thing?" "That's right, because of this, the Okubo Chang'an family has been all executed. Zhonghui's father-in-law Date Masamune felt that the matter had been exposed, so he quickly withdrew to his territory. Not only that, but what made the Toyotomi family unable to sit idly by was the rumor that Mr. Zongjie is secretly planning to bring Shaojun into his gang to realize the conspiracy." As a result, Mrs. Dian couldn't help questioning Hideyori first, and then called Qiyuan to ask: "It is rumored that Edo will use this as an excuse to transfer Hideyori soon, is it true?" Qi Yuan denied it with a smile.He said that if there was such a thing, the Kanto side would have called him over.Those are just rumors, please don't pay attention to them... But after Mrs. Dian heard the rumors that Takayama Nanbo was kicked out of Kaga, she questioned her again. "There are two theories. One is that Ayin, the adopted daughter of Layman Lixiu, had a tryst with Nanfang in Beijing, and the matter was revealed, and Nanfang was exiled. There is also a more frightening theory, that Nanfang is also an accomplice of Shang Zongjie. He entered Osaka Castle because he wanted to support Lord Youfu and raise the flag of rebellion. After this matter was revealed, Maeda Toshicho dared not take him in because of his friendship with Tokugawa. If his words were true, he would of course tell the Toyotomi clan What." Qi Yuan calmly replied. Hearing this from Mrs. Dian's mouth, Qi Yuan felt disgusted from the bottom of his heart.Ono Jichang also mixed in the matter of Ah Yin and Takayama Ukon's stalking, and a few sweet words attracted Mrs. Dian's attention.How abhorrent is this kind of trick that can only be used in the inner court! Qi Yuan seldom questioned Mrs. Dian, but at this moment, he finally couldn't bear it and asked, "Who told Madam about such a rumor?" Mrs. Dian was not ashamed, and replied indifferently: "Xiu Xiu told me to be careful." Afterwards, when the discord between Zhonghui, the chief executive, and Xiuzhong, the general, seemed to gradually become entangled with the Toyotomi family, someone from Junfu came to summon him.Mrs. Dian questioned: "What's the matter, Shizheng? Is it a matter of moving the seal?" Even though the old nuns were all around, Mrs. Dian leaned out anxiously. "No. Since the construction of Fangguang Temple is coming to an end, and the Great Palace moved from Edo Xien to Junfu has not received any donations earlier, so this time I am asking the general for 10,000 shi. " Fortunately, at this time, Ono Zhichang was not with Mrs. Yodo. "Oh? Donate 10,000 stones? Is it for Fangguang Temple?" "No, it was bestowed on Shaojun, and must be sympathetic to Shaojun's huge expenses." Hearing what he said, Mrs. Dian's eyes turned red, "Oh, that's right." "I also think it is a good thing, so I made a promise." "It seems that the Imperial Palace still hasn't forgotten about Osaka." However, on the second day, Mrs. Dian suddenly seemed to be a different person, "I still want to ask about this gift." "What's wrong?" "Some people say that this is the basis for Tokugawa's eventual attack on Osaka. He is preparing for it. What do you think?" "How could you have such an idea..." "Also, the Great Imperial Palace clearly bullied me as a woman. First poured honey soup to make me relax my vigilance, and then killed me with one blow. To be cautious, we'd better secretly send the ronin into the city, just in case..." "Who...who said that?" "It's repairs, he is very worried." Mrs. Dian replied. At that time, Qi Yuan should severely refute the words of Zhichang.Regrettably, when he heard the words came out, Ji Yuan had a bitter expression on his face, and remained silent as before.It doesn't matter if Mrs. Dian is fond of men, if such nonsense from the boudoir is used to interfere in political affairs, it is really unreasonable!Moreover, Yuan Chang pretended to be deaf and dumb, which led to an irreparable mistake.Perhaps Mrs. Dian had misunderstood his silence as tacit consent. At this time, rumors that Takayama Ukon and Naito Roan, together with their families, were exiled to Luzon Island quickly spread into the city.Everyone in the city of Osaka was panicked. Afterwards, I don't know what kind of sweet words Ohno Zhichang used to impress Mrs. Dian, and I don't know how to please Hideyori. In short, Qiyuan received a naive order from Hideyori: "In the future, repairs will be in charge of the Seven Hands Group. Lighten up your lord's hard work. Your lord can concentrate on the project of Fangguang Temple." Qi Yuan was stunned.However, because it was a matter of himself, he couldn't pierce his face and make an admonition.If Kishiwada Castle Lord Koide Hidemasa is still alive at this time... Qi Yuan would be sad, that's all, he had no choice but to tell Oda Yurakusai about the matter and ask him to persuade Hideyori to think again.However, You Le fear was the same as before, laughing and cursing, and when he came back, he said that the mistress's thoughts were hard to shake. "Forget it, Mayor, instead of letting the mistress interfere in the political affairs, it is better to let the repair come forward, so that you can refute it in a fair manner. If you interfere now, you will lower your status." Hearing what he said, Qi Yuan also felt the same way.What's more, at that time, Qi Yuan was busy with the selection of the thirty-nine casters necessary to cast the giant bell of the Great Buddha Hall. Although he was thinking about this matter, he still let it go. In the meantime, Ieyasu was methodically setting up his chess formation.Tadaki Okubo, who was sent to Kyoto to destroy churches, exile believers, and issue bans to the daimyo, was demoted on the 19th day of the first lunar month in the 19th year of Qingcho.When the order came, Zhong Neighbor was already under the supervision of Suo Si Dai, and there was nothing he could do.At the same time that Zhonglin was relegated, Ieyasu set off from Edo again, entered Odawara Castle in person, and immediately summoned General Hidetada and ordered him to destroy Odawara Castle immediately. The reason may be that Zhonglin, as an important minister of genealogy, did not allow Okubo The reason why outsiders entered Odawara Castle.At the same time, Ieyasu did not stop and ordered the sixth son Zhonghui to rebuild Fukushima Castle to Takata, another place in the territory. Needless to say, this was clearly a refusal to Zhonghui's shameless proposal of wanting Osaka Castle. On the twenty-sixth day of the first lunar month, Takayama Ukon and Naito Ruan who were detained were directly escorted to Nagasaki.Next, Ieyasu’s series of actions were even more shocking: On the second day of February, Tadao Okubo, who was arrested in Kyoto, was exiled to Omi; Numazu Castle, because there seems to be a voice among the genealogists: even if loyal neighbors are exiled to Numazu Castle... On February 14th, Ieyasu ordered the veterans of the family to submit an affidavit to show that they had no objection to a series of disposals, And loyal to the general. Not only that, in order to express support for the shogunate's ruling on the internal turmoil in Tokugawa, two ministers, Hirohashi Kanekatsu and Sanjo Nishijo, set off from the capital as imperial envoys and rushed to Sufu.In fact, this arrangement is also the result of careful deployment according to Ieyasu's will.The imperial envoy's mission was to convey the order to enter the palace to Ieyasu's granddaughter, the daughter of the general Hidetada, and Miss Hezi. In this way, the relationship between Xiuzhong and the court was consolidated, and the status of the general was as solid as a rock. Under the ever-changing situation, what countermeasures can Katagiri Kamoto have? For the sake of peace, Ieyasu's preparations are meticulous and meticulous, and no water is leaked.Compared with this, Katagiri Kamoto of Osaka's actions are insignificant.No matter what, we must preserve the peace of the world and let the Toyotomi Clan survive safely. On this wish, when they met in Junfu City last year, the two had made it clear to each other and reached an agreement.For this reason, Ieyasu could not be divided, and cut off the root of the division of factions within Tokugawa.Ieyasu also flatly rejected the foolish idea that his own son wanted Osaka, and ordered him to rebuild Fukushima Castle to Takata.As for Takayama Ukon, who was about to become the central figure of the Western Christian riot, Ieyasu did not execute Hideyoshi on him by nailing him. "Since the gods in foreign countries are better than those in Japan, let them fulfill their wishes and let him live in a foreign country." So he exiled Takayama Youkon and his family abroad.It should be said that the ruling on this matter is very reasonable.It tells the world that it is no longer a chaotic world that can be killed arbitrarily, and it cleverly avoids the freedom of belief and the conflict with the state-owned king's law. Therefore, for the agreement with Qiyuan, Ieyasu has promptly fulfilled it, and the rest depends on how Qiyuan acts. Qi Yuan has not made any progress in the matter of "moving the seal".At this time, Xiu Lai said that he had something to discuss with him, saying that he wanted to convert the legacy of the late Taige, the thousand ingots of gold, into one or two small judgments with a weight of four cents and eight cents: "In today's world, the wind is unstable. , Just in case, I want to clean up the gold, please think of a way." Hearing Xiu Lai's order, Qi Yuan suddenly felt his eyes darken.In the name of building Osaka Castle, Ono Zhichang and others began to contact wanderers from all over the city to enter the city.The recasting of one or two small sentences must be intended to be used as military pay. "Please think again, my lord. At such a sensitive moment, doing so may cause Edo to misunderstand, and he must think that Osaka is deliberately rebelling." But Mrs. Dian and Zhitian Youlezhai took it for granted. "Military pay? Don't confuse people. Even if you want to drive out the foreign believers and missionaries who have entered the city, you need money. Now that things are going on, how can you let the remaining gold go idle?" Xiu Lai said. With that said, Qi Yuan couldn't refuse.In order to build the Great Buddha Hall, even the cost of the inner court was greatly reduced, and the steward even complained repeatedly about it.Qi Yuan decided to take this as an opportunity to talk about "moving the seal", so he agreed to recast it.Once it is said that the money is used for military pay, things will become a big mess, so no matter what, Qi Yuan has to make a gesture of using the money to build the Great Buddha Hall. However, is Katagiri Kasumi's painstaking efforts really useful? People's wishes are not as good as heaven's wishes.The more Ieyasu controls the Tokugawa people, the more disgusted Osaka becomes, and the flame of delusion grows stronger. The difference in human capacity is like the difference between heaven and earth.If Katagiri and Yuan were at the helm of the shogunate, Tokugawa and the shogunate would be in chaos.But Qiyuan can still feel the danger of Osaka.In Osaka City, there is neither Okubo Tadane and Honda father and son confrontation, nor Hidetada and Tadaki, who are prone to internal turmoil, and there are no influential figures such as Date Masamune and Maeda Toshinaga.But despite this, foreign religions, ronin, Yifeng, and delusions surrounding these issues have made Osaka a mess. Moreover, there are almost no people who can open up their hearts and confide their troubles to him.Both Kato Kiyomasa and Asano Nagamasa are gone.Xing Chang passed away in August last year at the age of thirty-eight. It is said that he contracted an MED from a dissolute life.Fukushima Masamori hardly ever stays in Edo now, but once he discusses with Kodaiin rashly, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction with Mrs. Yodo... But if he keeps letting it go, Ieyasu will send an envoy to question him sooner or later.How should I answer then? There is only one person who seems to be able to pour bitter water, and this person is Katsushige Itakura, but now Katsushige is the one who executes Ieyasu's orders from above... After much deliberation, Yuan decided to record everything.Behind this mood lies his sad and helpless determination: Once Ieyasu gets angry and wants to attack the Toyotomi clan, he will save the Toyotomi clan even if he dies.According to Qieyuan's ability, he may not be able to save the Toyotomi family, but he is not completely desperate. He still has one last move, which is to build the Great Buddha Hall first, so that Mrs. Yodo and Hideyori can feel at ease, and then challenge their mother and son. To clarify the situation.But before that, can Ieyasu continue to trust him? Tired of writing, Qi Yuan put down his pen and stared blankly at the window lattice of the academy, motionless.He couldn't erase the uneasiness in his heart, and mourned his powerlessness. And Yuan thought about it again, should he discuss it with Youle?Although he is an uncle and nephew, Youle and Chang Zhenren can't get along.Recently, Youle has obviously aged, but his mind is still sharp.Even if he gave himself a little hint in a sarcastic tone. Thinking of this, Qi Yuan clapped his hands and called the attendant over, ordering him to report to You Le first. "Just say that I want to disturb him. He may be bedridden because of the cold in early spring, but I do have something important to see him." Not long after, Youle gave Qieyuan a consistent reply: "As you expected, I was indeed bedridden due to the cold. However, if you come to visit with a gift, I will not stop getting up to meet you." So, as he said, Qi Yuan went to visit with a pot of red wine and went to have a look. You Le didn't look sick. He was facing the chessboard alone, lost in thought. "Shizheng, it seems that war will not disappear from this world." "Just say unlucky words." "But it's always so boring. There is only one person, and he wants white and black to fight. It seems that people always like stupid fights." Qi Yuan smiled and took out the jug, "Let's put it down first, let's rest for a while. This is a gem jug." "I've accepted the wine. It's just that if I have to come up with a way to make the Toyotomi family enjoy peace forever, I'm sorry." "Oh... So, you don't count on Shaojun?" "Hmph! It's hate! Maybe it's inappropriate to say something." As he spoke, You Lezhai packed up his chess pieces, "Taige is not an important minister of Oda... Maybe it's inappropriate to say that. In terms of friendship, Tokugawa, Toyotomi and I are both Similarly, if I lean on one side, I am afraid that I will be ridiculed by gods and Buddhas." Qi Yuan took out a glass wine glass from his bosom, poured it into the wine, sniffed at the side of the glass, and drank a glass first. "Hey! I'm not some kind of person, so I don't need to be poisoned. I'm just an old fool. No matter when I close my eyes, no one will think about it." "Master Oda, I only have one matter, and I would like to ask you to make a fair judgment." "What is it?" "Before the inauguration ceremony of the Great Buddha Hall, will Edo propose to transfer the title of Shaojun?" Youle's eyes were sharp, his eyes rolled up, and he just raised his cup without making a sound. "I can't judge now. If the shogunate doesn't mention it, I want to put this issue aside. But..." "Just wait and see, Shizheng. It's too late to talk about this now." "Late? Why?" "As far as I know, the son of Sanada Masayuki..." "Yukimura?" "Exactly. I heard that Yukimura was stubborn and refused to listen to the advice of the Ogosho, and wanted to come to Osaka Castle. Look at your expression, full of doubts, you must want to ask me how I know—Kimura Chang, Lusuke's son Chang Come let go." "Is it reborn?" "Yes. This son is one of the few stable people among young people today. Of course, his mother Ukyo Taifuju is a calm and experienced person. He is also like me, and he can be said to be indebted to the Toyotomi family... ...His father Zhong here, as you know, is the elder of Guan Baixiuci, who was ordered by the late grand lord to commit seppuku." At this point, he seemed to think of something, and suddenly sneered. Youle always takes pleasure in being unexpected, Chia Yuan is very clear about this, but his sneer at this time makes people very uncomfortable.Sanada Yukimura has decided to enter the city. If this is true, then it is a major event related to the survival of the Toyotomi clan. "Master Oda, this is not ridiculous. Shigenari said that this matter is a foregone conclusion?" "According to my judgment, there is nothing to change." You Le still sneered, "Shizheng, you and I have been thrown aside. In terms of combat, you and I are already old days and treated as outsiders .” "Is there such a thing?" "It seems that you don't know anything. It's not clear whether the master of Osaka Castle is Susuyo Ohno or Sobu Akashi. In addition, Sanada Yukimura, Nagasogabu Mori, Mori Toyomae, and Goto Youhei Wei... Comparing these people with those who fought in Sekigahara, I have nothing to say. Anyway, the battle will not be fought in three or two days... I can only laugh it off." "That's not what Oda-sama said." "According to what you say, these people can fight the war?" "Even if Dasaka is unable to resist, but if people use this as an excuse to provoke a war, what should they do?" Youle laughed loudly, "You underestimate the Imperial Palace too much. Do you think that a character like him would be serious with a child?" "Qi Yuan doesn't dare to think like this, there are limits to everything." Youle waved his hands, not being a colleague at all, "Don't worry, Shizheng, you have to understand that Edo and Osaka won't make a move at all now. If Edo thinks that Osaka is an eyesore, a scolding is enough." "Could it be that if you scold, the child will not dare to make a sound?" "Then scold twice. How could Ohno and Sanada really fight Edo? It's a bluff at most. So, it's better to wait a little longer, and when they really go out of line, then remind them from the side." Saying, You Le held up the unfinished wine, "The wine is not bad, it tastes really good." "Master Oda!" "Are you still worried, Mayor?" "Can you remind Madam that she should discuss matters with Qi Yuan." "No. You'd better not talk too much. If you don't get a reprimand, the lost people won't wake up." "But at that time, it is a matter of territory and life, once..." "That's okay. More than 600,000 stones are too much. When the late Taige Lord served Nobunaga, he only had 120,000 stones at most. It is only right and proper to reduce the salary! How can a person's strength compare to the gods and Buddhas?" Ruling? Hahahaha!" Katagi and Yuan's heart is as cold as gray.Oda Yurakusai is no longer a person who can discuss major issues, he has become an eccentric person who is too indifferent. Even though what he said is not unreasonable, he seems to be tired of the world of mortals.Qi Yuan even had such doubts in his heart: this is not surprising, even though You Lesheng was Nobunaga's younger brother, he ended up being a diner in Osaka Castle, and he was not treated favorably by the Toyotomi family.Because of this, how could he worry so much about Toyotomi? But the more Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that there was a reason for Le Zhai.It is a natural law that the stupid and inferior must be annexed and destroyed by the excellent.The sons of Imagawa, Wuyou, Saito, and Asakura are all inferior to their parents, and now each family has no successors.The same is true for the Toyotomi family, who have not given birth to heirs as magnanimous as Hideyoshi, and their decline is inevitable. No matter how hard they struggle, they will be powerless.Youle seems to have understood everything in the world, so he resigned himself to fate.However, what should the shogunate really do if its soldiers are coming to the city?He is different from Youle in the end, he can't stay out of the matter, even if he fights with his life, he must try his best to protect Toyotomi. "One more glass." Katagiri Kasumi filled up the wine for Youle, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Master Oda, although life is divided into luck and misfortune, but those who know what can't be done are definitely not Rare - it's up to people to plan..." "But it's up to God." You Le responded lightly, "The idiots are moving around in panic, and they have closed the door of fate." "Although Qi Yuan is that kind of idiot, but no matter what, how can he refuse to save him?" "Haha, if that's the case, then you're stupid to the end and help repair it. Just melt down the weights of gold piece by piece, and use the money to buy more ronin." "Ugh!" "In that case, the matter will be resolved faster. Whether it is scolding or transfer of title, the Imperial Palace will still let Xiu Lai become a daimyo and leave him thirty to fifty thousand stones. In a person's life, only if the income matches his status will he be Safe and stable. Hey, if you die early, you will be more stable.” Katagiri Kamoto had a gloomy face and kept silent.Youle seemed to be as cold as iron at this moment.But when things come to an end, can you endure it? At this time, Qi Yuan actually remembered his surname "Piantong".Toyotomi's family emblem is Sanqitong, and the "Piangiri" that has a lot to do with this family emblem, now there is not even a person to discuss, and it has really become "a piece of tung tree leaf"!
