Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In Edo, the council meeting at Tianyu Castle ended. Takeuchi Jin was not punished for what happened in Osaka Castle. This surprised many people.

    "However, after what happened at the council was spread by thoughtful people, people still knew what happened at that time.

    ??????????? Takeuchi Jin didn¡¯t accept bribes?

    How is this possible?

    "However, that's what Takeuchi Jin said at the time, and this excuse really makes sense.

    People who know what kind of virtue Takeuchi Jin is will sneer and disdain him.

    It is simply unrealistic for you to ask a dog to get rid of its habit of eating shit.

    "Jin Takeuchi is just a dog, and taking bribes means eating shit again."

    Therefore, if you ask him to get rid of this problem, it is completely impossible.

    ¡°If this were placed on someone else, it would still be possible.

    ¡° But he Takeuchi Jin everyone can only laugh.

    But no matter what, the shogun Ishida Hiroshi recognized Takeuchi Jin¡¯s statement and told all the ministers present, ¡®Can¡¯t Takeuchi change his faults and learn from his mistakes?  ¡¯ If so,

    Seeing that Takeuchi Jin was fine, Hiroshi Ishida felt relieved and got rid of a headache.

    Takeuchi Jin also kept a low profile during this period and tried his best not to appear in public. Every day he just found some little girls to play the game of '**,**' in a secluded residence outside Edo Castle.  Let¡¯s pass this boring day.

    Of course, Takeuchi Jin was forced to keep such a low profile because he knew that many people were dissatisfied with the result.

    Therefore, he must keep a low profile, go out less and not give those people opportunities and connections, and then do something about himself.

    "Anyway, after the foreigners are defeated and this matter is dealt with, the general's son-in-law will let him go to another place, and then he can be a native emperor again.

    Therefore, during this period of time, he regarded it as recharging his energy.

    It can be said that both Ishida Hiroshi and Takeuchi Hitoshi feel that this matter has been resolved, just like before.

    But the two of them had no idea that what they did had once again left indelible traces in the hearts of those loyal ministers and made them completely lose confidence. Some of them had already begun to decide to overthrow Ishida.  Wide.

    ¡°If Ishida Hiro had known that things would turn out like this, I don¡¯t know if he would have been so protective of Takeuchi Jin and favored Rairako so much.

    But these are all assumptions, and Ishida Hiroshi knows nothing about these things.

    Therefore, these things can only be allowed to develop.

    In fact, in Ishida Hiroshi's shogunate, everyone's resentment has been accumulating for more than a day or two.

    Originally, everyone thought that the general was still young, and maybe he would gradually mature in a few years.

    However, after so many years, the general is still the same, and he still favors Rairako and that annoying Takeuchi Jin. No one can see the general's change at all.

    Now that Takeuchi Jin has caused such a big thing, the general is still protecting him and handling the matter lightly.

    If the shogunate continues to allow Hiroshi Ishida, a careless general, to continue to control, then the foundation of the future shogunate will be very worrying.

    Therefore, when Xiao Lin Zongwu put forward the suggestion of "Qing Jun Side", he immediately received the support of many people.

    However, although the ministers who support this proposal now have high status, they do not have military power in their hands.

    Originally, these people used to be daimyo lords, but a few years ago they had their military power gradually reduced and became mere decorations.

    "Otherwise, they wouldn't be so passive against the general now.

    Especially Kobayashi Munetake, who actually allowed Takeuchi Jin to live such a free and unrestrained life.

    Therefore, although they connected in series, they did not publicize the matter in a big way.

    Now, the fact that they are preparing to 'Qingjun's side' is only spread among a few small circles that are absolutely tight-lipped.

    They are also waiting for the time to mature.

    Because their current strength is not enough to initiate this matter.

    Therefore, they need to get the support of some powerful people in other places, and they also need to ensure that this matter will not cause turmoil when launched.

    If this matter is not handled well, then the curtain that was finally established will beThe government will collapse, and Japan, which has restored peace, will fall into war again.

    ??And after they overthrew Ishida Hiroshi, they had to select a suitable successor to take the position of shogun.

    For this candidate, they have to make a good choice.

    ¡°At least, this person cannot be as stupid as Ishida Hiroshi, and at the same time, he must ensure the interests of these people, and even let them get better benefits than they are now.

    None of these things can be accomplished overnight.

    All of this takes time.

    It is precisely for this reason that Ishida Hiroshi and Takeuchi Jin both had an illusion. They both felt that this matter was completely over, and the ministers also gave up in frustration.

    Therefore, Hiroshi Ishida and Hitoshi Takeuchi have never thought about this issue.

    Although Lai Lai Zi felt that something was wrong, she couldn't tell what was wrong, so Lai Lai Zi could only observe secretly.

    However, whether it is Ishida Hiroshi or Takeuchi Jin, or even the ministers who are plotting to "clear the emperor's side", they all have one thing to do now.

    That¡¯s who dispatched troops and generals to put all their energy into crusading against Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    The conquering army on the Osaka Castle side has been defeated. This is equivalent to slapping the Japanese in the mouth, and the slap was very loud.

    Therefore, the shogunate must now regain its face in order to prove the shogunate's ability to the world.

    Otherwise, if the shogunate loses face, the prestige of their policies and laws will be greatly reduced.

    ¡°For a government agency, the consequences are quite dire.

    Although the people in Tianyu City have regained their composure on the surface, it seems like nothing happened.  But the undercurrents below cannot be hidden from some people.

    For example, Kotaro Fuma, the leader of the ninja army of the Ishida shogunate, knew very well what Kobayashi Munetake and others were going to do.

    However, although Fuma Kotaro knew about this matter, he did not tell Ishida Hiro about it, and even concealed it for Kobayashi Munetake intentionally or unintentionally.

    The reason is very simple, because he sent people to find Xiaolin Zongwu and got the guarantee from Xiaolin and the others.

    When what they want to do succeeds, Fuma Kotaro will be able to obtain even higher status and benefits than he does now.

    Driven by profit, it is not surprising that Fuma Kotaro helped Kobayashi Munetake and others.

    Besides, Fuma Kotaro is also very disgusted with Raiko and Takeuchi Jin, because Raiko and Takeuchi Jin have wanted to interfere with the Ninja Army many times to seize the rights belonging to Fuma Kotaro.

    These have already touched Fuma Kotaro¡¯s bottom line.

    The reason why Fuma Kotaro did not launch any counterattack was not because he was afraid of Raiko and Takeuchi Jin.

    Just because he took into account the general's wishes, he was worried that the general Ishida Hiroshi would not believe what he knew about the affairs between Raiko and Takeuchi Jin.

    Because Fuma Kotaro is too aware of the secrets between Raiko and Ishida Hiroshi.

    He knows how sincere Ishida Hiroshi is to Raiko.

    Therefore, he does not want to come out as this evil person and make Ishida Hiro hate himself.

    Although the status of ninjas has been improved during the Warring States Period, their status is still not high compared to samurai.

    Because ninjas cannot be on the stage, when the Tokugawa family or the Ishida family recruit ninjas, the status given is not too high.

    Hattori Hanzo¡¯s original status was only an official position worth a few thousand koku, but even this made Hattori Hanzo happy to death.

    And Fuma Kotaro and Hattori Hanzo are not much better.

    His current status is not as good as even the most rubbish little name.

    It can be seen that although ninjas will be used by the shogunate, they will not be reused.

    It was precisely because of his position that Fuma Kotaro did not rush to tell Ishida Hiro all the information he had.

    ¡°Furthermore, Fuma Kotaro also understands Ishida Hiroshi¡¯s character and knows that he is an Adou who cannot afford it. Even if he tells him, it will be of no use.

    Instead, the woman Lailaiko cried and complained, and finally threw dirty water on her head.

    If this is the case, then you will lose more than you gain.

    ¡°Maybe, the shogunate will clean up the Koga stream.

    This is?Things that Demon Kotaro doesn¡¯t want to see.

    He doesn¡¯t want what he has worked so hard to possess to be lost in one fell swoop.

    You must know that since the establishment of the Ishida Shogunate, many people suggested that the then General Mitsunari should abolish the Ninja Army.

    It was General Mitsunari who fought against all odds to preserve the existence of the Koga Ninja Army.

    Because whether they are literati or military generals, they hate and fear ninjas.

    What is annoying is that ninjas walk in the darkness, always hiding in the darkness like mice.

    What I¡¯m afraid of is that ninjas are better than ordinary people in terms of assassination, grasping intelligence and peeking into secrets.

    In front of ninjas, they almost have no secrets.

    This is the reason why those people want to abolish the Ninja Army.

    How could Fuma Kotaro not know this clearly?

    Although Fuma Kotaro and his Koga-ryu ninja army were saved at the beginning, General Mitsunari also agreed to a condition for the daimyo, ministers and generals.

    This condition is that the ninja army of the shogunate will not spy on them or peek into their privacy.

    If such a thing is found to have happened, the Koga Ninja Army will be disbanded directly.

    And the ninjas of Koga-ryu will be jointly encircled and suppressed by daimyo from all over Japan.

    No matter how powerful Fuma Kotaro is, he can't go against all the powerful people in Japan, unless he is mentally retarded.

    This is another reason why Fuma Kotaro did not dare to tell Ishida Hiroshi about Raiko and her father.

    ????????? Doesn¡¯t that mean that the ninja army is monitoring the general¡¯s family?

    This is a big deal.

    ??????????? If Rairako and Takeuchi Jin¡¯s rights to spy on the Ninja Army had not touched Fuma Kotaro¡¯s interests, then Fuma Kotaro would not have dared to do this in spite of the disapproval of the world.

    In fact, he is doing this to protect himself.

    It¡¯s just that Fuma Kotaro didn¡¯t say this secret, it just stayed in his heart.

    Even when he secretly expressed his support for Xiaolin Zongwu, he did not tell the secret.

    Because he wanted to see if Xiaolin Zongwu could succeed.

    If he succeeds, it won¡¯t be too late to reveal this secret himself.

    You know, Kobayashi Munetake promised him that as long as the matter is completed, he can ask the new general to draw a chassis and give it to Fuma Kotaro as his territory.

    Let him also become a famous person.

    This misfortune made Fuma Kotaro excited.

    Ninjas can also be daimyo!

    This is a great thing for Fuma Kotaro, who was born as a ninja.

    Although he is very capable, his status is not very good.

    This has always been a problem for him.

    If he can become a lord daimyo, then he can get rid of his identity as a ninja and become a master.

    And with the Koga-ryu ninjas in his hands, he can imagine that he can also seek to become a registered official in his lifetime.

    In this way, his descendants can live upright lives.

    I have to say that the environment and humanities on the Japanese side are completely different from those in China.

    It¡¯s really a strange thing that a person with such powerful abilities as Fuma Kotaro can live such a miserable life.

    ¡°If Fuma Kotaro was from the Ming Dynasty, he would have been an official of the Imperial Guard, and he would have been a very majestic presence wherever he went.

    But if you look at Fuma Kotaro pretending to be a grandson here in the Japanese country and pretending to be very comfortable, then you have to say that the Japanese people really have such a mean factor in their bones.

    Things in Edo have come to an end, and Fuma Kotaro began to deal with the things at hand.

    The matter promised to Kobayashi Munetake and the others was just a small matter for Fuma Kotaro.

    At this moment, there are only two important things before him.

    One is to immediately send people to notify the daimyo of Tajima and Danbo, asking them to organize their armies to attack those foreigners. At the same time, he will also send a team of elite ninja troops to the foreigners' camps to spy on those foreigners.  Military strength.

    If possible, this group of ninja troops will assassinate the leaders of the foreigners and make the foreigners confused.

    ¡°That¡¯s what ninjas do.

    This is just one of them.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Another important thing for Fuma Kotaro is that he will send the elite Koga Ten people to dress up over there to find the Toku remnants and deal with them, and kill the Iga Ten people.

    The Iga Ten People and the Koga Ryu have been fighting each other for many years. Over the years, Koga has been unable to do anything against the Iga people.

    That¡¯s because the ninjas of Koga are not as powerful as the ten Iga people who have special abilities.

    But now it¡¯s different!

    Fuma Kotaro used the power of the shogunate to search for good seedlings all over Japan, and finally found ten children with special abilities for him.

    After so many years of training and cultivation, these children are ready to start teaching.

    And they were called the ¡®Koga Ten People¡¯ by Fuma Kotaro.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
