    "Wait! A-Ju, what did you just say?" Kiragi, who was eating pastries, seemed to hear a familiar name. He turned his head and asked, "Did you just say that Hu Ji told you?" A-Ju nodded matter-of-factly and said:  "Yes! Princess Torahime told Aju that she regretted her recklessness, but she also said that His Highness's bad behavior is unforgivable!" "Huh? When did you and Torahime become" Kiragi wanted to change  I could express it in one word, but I really couldn¡¯t express it clearly. After holding it for a long time, I said: "Become a close friend in the boudoir?"  A very good description! Just like handkerchief! Your Highness is really awesome!" Chiyome Mochizuki shook her ponytails and said, "Yes! Your Highness can always say a lot of things that Chiyome doesn't understand.  The best!" "Hey! Don't bring up the topic, I think Aju should answer my question first!" Kira Yoshiki has no words to complain about Aju's often off-line temper.  Idiot Loli has completely given up on treatment.  "Yes! When we were still in Kyoto, Aju had already been close friends with Princess Torah! In the past few months, when His Highness led the samurai on eagle hunting, Aju would make many delicious dishes.  The cakes are for Princess Torah, and of course Ao and the others also share in it! "Oh! I want to eat it too! It's so painful for Chiyome to not eat it!" Loli blinked with tears in her eyes.  Blinking and looking at Aju pitifully, Aju soon touched her head and comforted her gently: "Don't worry, the missing share will be made up for by Chiyome!" The idiot Loli immediately burst into tears and laughed.  She hugged Aju and cheered happily: "Okay, okay! Chiyoda likes sister Aju the most!" "Asshole! I didn't know at all. It turns out that the offline maid who has been hiding beside me is so powerful!"  Kira Yoshi suddenly felt regretful. Did he pay too little attention to his own life? He was not living for himself every day. It was very hard and boring. Even the maid who had taken care of him for more than ten years did not understand him. He was considered a failure in life.  Yes.  "What is your highness talking about? Why can't Aju understand it?" "Yes! Chiyoda can't understand it either!" Two people, one large and one small, stared at him with questions.  "It's nothing" Instantly expelling all the distracting thoughts in his mind, Kira Yoshi said again: "I think Aju should bravely shoulder the responsibility of smoothing the relationship between me and Hu Ji. Right?" "What does your highness mean?"  , Aju probably understands!" Aju agreed readily without much thought this time, clasped her hands and said, "As long as Your Highness and Princess Hu Ji get along, it will be perfect!" "That's all, please!"  While the chaotic post-disaster reconstruction work was going on, the March assessment meeting was held as scheduled. This was a bimonthly assessment. It was different from ordinary assessment meetings. All Echigo people had to attend except for special circumstances. At this time, Kasugayama Castle Ohiro  There were hundreds of warriors sitting on both sides of the room, with serious and even slightly hostile expressions on both sides.  "The main hall of Nagao Tan has arrived!" "The Duke of Kiratake has arrived!" Two names were sung at almost the same time.  The hall was filled with darkness. Hundreds of warriors were all leaning down on the ground. Long-tailed Kagetora, dressed in white monk robes, was holding a rosary.  With his waist and hips gleaming, he strode to the main seat and sat down. Behind him was Kiragi, wearing a white hunting coat, a black hat on his head, and holding a bat fan. Except for not applying powder, shaving his eyebrows and blackening his teeth,  The whole look is that of a decadent official from Kyoto and a disciple of the martial arts family.  Kira Yoshitoki sat cross-legged next to Nagao Kagetora, and the two sat side by side. The side of Nagao Kagetora sitting on the left hand side were all samurai from Echigo, while the ones sitting on Kira Yoshitoki's side on the right side were all samurai from Echigo.  The ones who should be there are samurai from Mikawa, Omi and even the shogunate. Since the two sides came to Ohiroma, they have neither whispered to each other nor greeted each other, as cold as a piece of ice that has never melted.  A samurai approaching Nagao Kagetora said loudly: "The evaluation meeting has begun. Please report anything you have to me." As the chief political officer of the Kira family, Hosokawa Fujitaka immediately raised his head and said loudly: "Report to the chief.  Tail bomb main hall! Post-earthquake statistics have been completed. A total of 2,936 houses were damaged by the earthquake in the seven counties of Echigo, 285 people died, 3,442 were injured, and they were homeless.  There are nearly 10,000 people who can return, and more than 50% of them have received assistance from local lords and are rebuilding their houses. The other 50% have been taken to temporary resettlement sites near Naoetsu. " "Temporary resettlement site" Nagao Kagetora felt a little uncomfortable.  After getting used to this new word, he repeated a few sentences in a low voice, and then asked: "How is it there?" "Everything is normal. While rebuilding after the disaster, we have also formulated a plan to strengthen public security,The renovation plan for prevention and sanitation will be piloted first in Kasugayama Castle Town, Naoetsu Port and temporary resettlement sites. It is expected to invest 2,500 kan Yongle money and the construction period will be about four months. It will mainly be used to improve the unreasonable layout of the houses in the town.  It will bring inconvenience to fire rescue and public security management. At the same time, drainage facilities will be improved and culverts will be added to reduce the adverse impact of water damage on the town.  " " There may be many roads!  "Nagao Kagetora was already dizzy. There were a lot of words he had never heard before and he had no idea what they meant. He could only look sideways at Kiragi, who nodded and said, "Futaka did a good job. Please complete the project as soon as possible."  The progress schedule and schedule for the renovation of various facilities are listed, and the general recruitment should be collected as soon as possible. Don¡¯t worry about food.  "    "yes!  "Hosokawa Fujitaka then said: "The general recruitment is expected to recruit two thousand people, and everyone in Echigo needs to cooperate" "Wait, I have something to say!  "Hojo Takahiro suddenly jumped out and shouted: "What do you mean you don't have to worry about food? This is the lean season. Even we samurai don't have much food left in our hands. How can my Nagao family have so much food left to feed these untouchables?  Do you think this is true?  "    "yes!  How can there be so much surplus food!  "Some samurai actually joined in, which made many samurai present dissatisfied. Important ministers including Honjo Shino and Nakajo Fujisou all frowned and secretly cursed: "This stupid and reckless wild boar is really  trouble making.  " Seeing a large number of Echigo people speaking in agreement. Hojo Takahiro said proudly: "See?  None of you has any food left in your hands.  Presumably the lord doesn't have much food left in his hands.  How much food does it take to feed five thousand people for several months, and how much food does it take to conscript two thousand people into general service?  Don¡¯t think I don¡¯t know, I served as Acting Administrator of Kashiwazaki Port!  " When he saw Kiragi, he didn't speak. He thought he was speechless because of the question, so he further said: "Are you speechless?  How do noble people from Kyoto know our Echigo customs? If they make random comments, they will be laughed at by us country samurai.  " "Hahaha" "Seeking death!  "Watanabe Takazuna, who had been patient for a long time, couldn't hold back anymore and jumped out. He drew out the sword from his waist and slashed at him without saying a word. Hojo Takahiro was not a vegetarian either. When he saw a mighty and majestic man jumping out of the Kira family, he also  He stepped back and faced him with his sword. Speaking of it, Watanabe Takatsuna's swordsmanship was above average. Of course, Hojo Takahiro, who was opposite him, was not a swordsman. The two of them slashed several times but could not do anything to his opponent. And here Echigo was.  When the samurai saw that the other party dared to attack openly, he couldn't help but jump up and draw his sword. The samurai of the Kira family also made the same move. For a moment, the sword flashed in the vast room, and it reminded Kira Yoshihide of what he had done a few years ago.  The farce in Sanhe: ¡°Enough!  Stop it all!  "Nagao Kagetora became furious and shouted: "Where is Koheiji?  Catch these people!  "    "yes!  "Teams of samurai rushed in, and without saying a word, they detained all the samurai on both sides who drew their swords. At Kiragi's suggestion, he shook his head, and the samurai of Mikawa cooperated very cooperatively to put away their weapons and wait for processing, while Takahiro Hojo actually still  Unconvinced, Hojo Takahiro cursed and refused to stop: "Why are you arresting me?  What did I say wrong?  let me go!  "How dare you talk back!"  "Nagao Kagetora kicked Hojo Takahiro down with one kick, and several samurai went up to capture him. The Echigo samurai in the hall seemed to realize the power of the Nagao clan's Konoe Hatamoto, so they all put down their weapons and captured him. Nagao Kagetora  Obviously very angry, he immediately ordered: "From today on, when entering the main crank gate of Kasugayama City, all weapons must be removed. No bows, arrows, swords or guns are allowed to be brought in!  "    "yes!  " " Hojo Takahiro, pull me down!  " Hojo Takahiro struggled and shouted: "I'm not wrong!  Why should you punish me?  I'm not convinced!  " " Still not convinced!  Nagao Kagetora wanted to kill him with a knife, and cursed angrily: "Do you know who you are contradicting?"  His Royal Highness is the royal family, the governor of the Ashikaga family, and the world-famous His Majesty the Duke of Wuwei!  My brother-in-law, Nagao Kagetora!  You unreasonable idiot, do you think Wuweidian doesn¡¯t have food for disaster relief?  It took several months to purchase soybeans and tea seeds in exchange for grain in Echigo, all of which were funded by Takeideon personally!  "    "¡­¡­how so?  "Hojo Takahiro's face turned green and white for a while. Not only did the Kira family's samurai despise him, but even the people of Echigo no longer sympathized with him. If he didn't want to offend anyone, he had to offend this dragon crossing the river.  Now that I have lost face and status, how can I face others in the future? Just when people thought that the storm was about to end, another unwilling person suddenly jumped out and shouted: "I, the farmers in Echigo, cannot accept charity from Kyoto.  !  Let them return to work in their own territory, and we will take care of the houses ourselves. We don¡¯t need the nobles from Kyoto to give us charity at all!  " When Nagao Kagetora saw this person, he had a headache and scolded: "Qian??Pig balls!  Sit back!  Don't talk nonsense.  " "I'm not talking nonsense!  "Honjo Shigenaga raised his head and shouted: "Even if our Echigo samurai are short of food, we are not so short. We can still take care of the victims if we share a little. Why should we accept the kindness of the nobles of Kyoto? The more we  Do the poor people even need food from others?  Do you think what I said is right?  "    "right!  No matter how poor we are in Echigo, we will never lack this little food!  "At this time, the crowd was excited, and no one wanted to admit that they wanted to give alms. After all, the reputation was too bad. There is a saying that people who are poor are not poor but their ambitions are not poor. The people of Echigo are such people. Now even Honjo Minoru, who has a change of heart,  Noya stopped talking. At this point, the issue of post-disaster rescue had obviously been raised to the level of local and foreign affairs. As a highly respected veteran of Echigo, Honjo Minoru could not speak rashly. (To be continued.)  Search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
