Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "The shogunate is greedy, and the government loves money! Hahaha" A series of laughter did not have an adverse effect on Odate Harumi. As a senior diplomat, he had already been ready to commit suicide. Since he was young,  He followed his father to follow Ashikaga Yoshinori and wandered abroad. He experienced the ups and downs of the world, and after the defeat of Hosokawa Takakuni, he replaced his father Odate Shoji and served as the shogunate's diplomatic affairs. This level of cynicism has long been felt by this loyal elder.  Not surprised at all, he just waited quietly for Miyoshi Changqing to make a decision.  To be fair, he also felt that the price was set too high, but there was nothing Odate Seimitsu could do about it. Yoshitoki Kira paid a huge price to win this battle. Not only did he use Omi Sakamoto's tax revenue as a reward, but he also paid for it out of his own pocket.  He went through a financial hole, fought for the government in the war with Ashikaga Yoshitoki, and in the end had to pay the reward out of his own pocket, which made everyone in the shogunate feel embarrassed about his actions.  Moreover, the shogunate retook Kyoto, Ashikaga Yoshitš­ wanted to rebuild Nijo Castle, the emperor wanted to repair Ouchi, the low-level ministers of the imperial court wanted to receive some salary, and the imperial court always wanted to repair the dilapidated Kyoto. All these complicated things asked for money, so  It was only then that the shogunate came up with this idea. Ashikaga Yoshitš­ and Kira Yoshitoki agreed that after the negotiation was concluded, he would donate a sum of money to the shogunate and the court, and the rest would be used to make up for the financial hole and provide post-war rewards.  It is precisely for this reason that the shogunate came up with the expedient method of raising prices, in order to compensate Kira Yoshitoki and save more savings for the shogunate. Therefore, after this idea was proposed, even the senior ministers of the shogunate, who had always been aloof, had no one.  Will object, no one wants to live through the hard days anymore.  "Don't you want money? Okay! I'll give it to you!" Miyoshi Nagakei happily agreed, and then his tone became much colder, "Zaemon-don couldn't be here just to ask for money, right? Are there any other questions?  Let's talk about it together." "Yes! The shogunate hopes to exchange the body of His Highness Tokawa Ichin and His Highness Miyoshi Changyi for Shengryuji Castle, and the Miyoshi family to completely withdraw from Yamashiro Country, and promise not to invade Yamashiro Country within ten years.  ." When Odate Qingguang put forward his proposal, his eyes were always fixed on Miyoshi Changqing's expression. Seeing his face darken a little bit, he secretly said something bad, but he still insisted on saying, "And His Highness Gongfang.  I hope Sanzhu can reach peace with the shogunate." "Harmony? Do you have to wait for my brother to die in your hands before you can talk about peace with me? Let me guess when the shogunate will be in charge.  Who is it! Hosokawa or Kira? It's really a question worth pondering!" Miyoshi Changqing's face turned black and gloomy, and he was holding the rosary tightly in his hand, which frightened the retainers of the Miyoshi family.  They dared not move.  "His Royal Highness Kira! A member of the imperial family and a famous general of the shogunate! Tsk tsk! What an amazing His Highness. Please lead me to pay tribute to His Highness Kira and to the new generals!" Miyoshi Nagakei raised his tea cup and presented it to Tai Kwun.  Sunny greets.  Then he drank it slowly, his movements were very slow but it gave people a heavy sense of depression. When he gently put down the teacup, a strong murderous intention suddenly burst out in his eyes, and he shouted in a very low voice: "Not for my brother.  Take revenge and never make peace with the shogunate! Let the Kira Saheibeiden wait. The army of my Miyoshi family will enter Kinki soon. We will see you on the battlefield!" Odate Harumi hurriedly exited the Ohiro room and walked to the door.  Realizing that his clothes were wet with sweat, he wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and couldn't help but sigh: "The power of Sanhao Changqing is getting stronger and stronger. It was not like this a few years ago, but I didn't expect it to be so scary now! It seems that His Highness Kira is in trouble.  " Not daring to stay any longer, Odate Harumi left Akutagawa Mountain Castle with Miyoshi Changkei's decision.  At the same time as Odate Seiko left, several samurai pushed a dirty prisoner who was tied up in the Odate room. This person was Ise Sadataka, the deacon of the shogunate who escaped from the battle. Miyoshi Nagakei watched coldly like a bereaved dog.  Ise Sadataka said in an amplified voice every word: "Escape from the battle, face death without saving, collude with the shogunate, what do you think I should do with you." "His Majesty Chizenshou! Go around me! What I said  It's true! I didn't collude with the shogunate, I am loyal to His Highness!" Ise Sadataka's body was covered with dirt and weeds. After staying in the hot and humid dungeon for several days, everyone covered himself with the stench.  Mouth and nose, it seems that they have been having a very bad time recently.  "Without colluding with the shogunate, why didn't you lose a single soldier? Why were you able to recover the Akutagawa Mountain Castle unharmed, but my brother died in Fushimihara? You must remember! You used my brother to survive.  In exchange for my life! Today I want to take back my brother's life!" Mihao Changqing's voice roared like gold and stone, and everyone present knelt down without even raising their heads.  Ise Sadataka's face was as pale as paper, and his whole body was shaking like chaff.  "Huh? This is the smell of urine! He was so scared that he peed!" A retainer not far from Ise Sadataka whispered.  "What a shame! He's like thisWhat¡¯s the point of living?  "Another retainer said disdainfully. Miyoshi Changqing picked up a silk handkerchief to cover his mouth, and said with a look of disgust: "Pull him down quickly and behead him!  The head is hung on the gate!  "    "yes!  "Several samurai were carrying Ise Sadataka, who was limp as mud. Ise Sadataka suddenly broke away from the samurai's grasp like crazy, and shouted with a ferocious face: "No!  No!  I am the government official of the shogunate!  You can't do this to me!  May the three good things last forever!  You rebel!  Even if I die, I will curse you!  Curse your Sanhao family to perish eventually!  Your three good friends will live forever and have no descendants!  Hahaha" "Asshole!  Let me, Seisuke Ogasawara, get to know you now!  "A young samurai jumped up quickly, drew out the sword from his waist and was about to rush over to kill someone. Miyoshi Changqing shouted: "Stop!  How could my vast room be stained with blood?  Drag him outside Otou's gate and behead him!  "    "yes!  "Ogasawara Seisuke obeyed and resigned, suppressing Ise Sadataka who kept cursing and looking crazy. Matsunagahide asked: "What should we do with the Sanuki Kingdom and the Toga family?  " "Let Ichimune's legitimate son, Kumonoumaru, inherit the Toga family's name!  Shihe Jingshiden serves as a posthumous official!  Miyoshi Nagakei thought for a while, and then added: "As for the Sanuki Kingdom, I will leave it to Awa's Yixian to control it on my behalf."  "    "yes!  " "You all should leave too!  "The ministers of the Miyoshi family stood up and left one after another. After everyone left, Matsuhisa Nagahide, who had not moved, said solemnly: "Why did my lord kill Ise Sadataka?  I, Hisahide, can confirm that he did not collude with the shogunate.  " "Of course I know that he did not collude with the shogunate!  " Miyoshi Changqing said calmly, but his eyes were always fixed on Matsunagahide. When he saw the right look of surprise on his face, he said in a calm tone: "I just want to take his life, that's all!  " "It turns out to be like this. It seems that I, Jiuxiu, still can't keep up with my lord's thinking!  "Matsuhisa said suddenly. "Haha, in front of me, do you still want to behave like this?  Mihao Changqing didn't seem angry, but shook his head helplessly and said: "There must be a reason for Jiuxiu to stay, what else is there?"  " "It's better that the main hall understands me for a long time!"  This is a message from His Highness Mikyu, hoping that the main hall will agree to make peace with the shogunate.  "Matsu Nagahide handed over the letter respectfully, then went back and sat down again. "Why was Mixiu's letter only delivered to me at this time?  Miyoshi Changqing also had no intention of getting entangled in Matsushita Hisahide's neglect of official duties. He took out the clay-sealed letter and looked at it, his eyes narrowed into a line, "What do Hisahide think of this?"  " "What the main hall thinks is exactly my Jiuxiu's opinion!  Jiuxiu still had something to do, so he resigned.  "Matsuhisa Nagahide slowly exited the room. "What a cunning guy.  "Sanhao Changqing held a piece of letterhead and threw it into the candle to burn it.
