After some debate, it was only then that Ukita Hideie realized something. It turned out that Maeda Toshimasa and Asano Nagamasa had already made plans in their minds. This time they wanted to take the opportunity to express their loyalty to Hideho. As for themselves, it was Cheng A stepping stone on their road to fame. Even though he was treated like this, it was hard for Ukita Hideie to resent anyone. First of all, he himself chose to side with Hideyori. Of course, Hideho and Hideyori were not antagonistic at this time, but he tried his best to maintain Hideyori's authority when Hideho was at the height of his power. How magnanimous Hideho must be to tolerate him in the future occupies a place in the center of the center? Secondly, compared to Maeda Toshimasa who pacified Hokuriku and supported Gohigashiyama, and Asano Nagamasa who pacified the Tokugawa clan's lair in Kanto, Ukita Hideie's achievements pale in comparison. Everyone knows that he became the elder only because of his status as the adopted son of Hideyoshi and his loyalty to the Toyotomi clan. Now, with Hideho, a powerful daimyo from the Toyotomi branch, in charge of Osaka, the situation of the Ukita Hide family is particularly embarrassing. In this case, instead of being consistent with Maeda Toshimasa and Asano Nagamasa, he was in tit-for-tat confrontation with them. In this case, how could Hideho keep him? In summary, this time he was exploited by Maeda and Asano and alienated by Hideho. He had no one to blame but himself. He had to ask inappropriate questions at this inappropriate time. Now that the situation is clear, what else can Ukita Hideie do? Stick to your guns? That would only increase Hideho's dissatisfaction with himself, cause a quarrel, and force a resolution to dissolve the elder brother's joint meeting with a majority vote; just go with the flow? After several previous rounds of confrontation, my attitude has been completely revealed in front of Hideho. Even if I turn around and actively support Hideho to take over the power, I am afraid that I will not gain too much trust from Hideho. Even if I can still enter the center in the future, my status will be reduced. He is far below Asano, Maeda and others, and even Hideho's retainers, and will gradually become marginalized as time goes by. Whether you agree or disagree, the results are not optimistic, but compared to the former, the latter seems to have a chance to "struggle". When Hideyori grows up, things may turn around. Thinking of this, Ukita Hideke decided to "hide his power and bide his time" and used his temporary patience in exchange for the stability of the Ukita family after Hideho came to power. "What your lords have said is absolutely true. The Xiu family just didn't think well. Now that the world has just settled down and everything is waiting for prosperity, it is the time when the government orders are unified and power is concentrated. The Youfu has always been prestigious among the great names. This time it is again He has made an unparalleled contribution by putting down the rebellion of the three elders, and he is worthy of being in charge of the central government. Therefore, I also agree to abolish the elders¡¯ system, support the right government, and return the world to prosperity and peace as soon as possible." The Ukita Hide family passed away. He bowed solemnly to Hideho. Seeing this, Hideho hurriedly helped him up, and said in fear: "Your Highness Well, Hideho is so virtuous and capable. There are many famous names in the world who have more seniority than Hideho. Taking charge rashly may not be conducive to the stability of the world. "Your Highness, that's wrong!" Before Ukita Hideie finished his "performance", Maeda Toshimasa "stealed the show" again. He put his hands on the map in front of him and retorted excitedly: "Indeed, seniority is on the right. There are many famous people in the government. In terms of ability and loyalty, you are unparalleled. To put it bluntly, Tokugawa, Mori, and Uesugi are senior enough, but can they be in charge of the government at the beginning? Isn¡¯t the purpose of the big boss system to prevent these powerful and qualified names from misbehaving? Therefore, I believe that there is no one in the world who is more suitable to govern Osaka than you, and besides, you were appointed before Taigu¡¯s funeral. Young Master's hindsight, isn't this even more justified? " "Yes, please don't have any worries, Your Highness, just lead us to let the people live and work in peace and contentment as soon as possible, and let the world sing and dance in peace. This is not only Taige's long-cherished wish. This is what Xiu Changgong has always hoped for." Asano Nagamasa choked up at one point, "When Xiu Changgong was alive, he was relied upon by the world and Taige. Now, His Highness's achievements are enough to make Xiu Chang under the Nine Springs. "You should be happy." "In this case, I have no choice but to do my best." At this time, Hideho said seriously and seriously, ignoring the pale and frozen Ukita Hideie beside him. We should put the Toyotomi family first and the people of the world first, inherit Taikaku¡¯s legacy, and create a prosperous Japan! "Haha, we dare not try our best!" Maeda and Asano were the first to bow, Ukita Hideie. He hesitated a little, but hurriedly followed. Regardless of whether he wanted to or not, this gesture was what he had to show. After the discussion, Hideho entertained the three of them for breakfast, while he chatted with a group of retainers on the porch about what had just happened. "So, Huangmen is really unwilling to give up?" After listening to Hideho's retelling, Todo Takatora was quite curious: "I never expected that since Taige's funeral, my family has rescued him so many times, but in exchange for this As a result, fortunately the other two adults came forward, otherwise, this meeting?It's very possible to reach a deadlock. ¡± Unlike not long ago, Hideho was thinking a lot at this time: Ukita Hideie in history, the long-lived Bizen Prime Minister, wasn¡¯t he just such a sweet-tempered person, raised and raised by Hideyoshi? He is loved very much, but anyone with a bit of conscience will do his best to repay the kindness of raising him. Moreover, Ukita Hideya's father died young, so Taiko is like his biological father, and he attaches more importance to Hideyori's feelings and responsibilities than on his shoulders. Ordinary people. It is no exaggeration to say that if Ukita Hideie sat in Hideho's current position, he would definitely be thinking about how to convince his retainers and daimyo to continue to be loyal to Hideyori after he came of age, rather than Hideho's current ambition and dilemma. Of course, Ukita Hideie's impulsiveness destined that he would not be able to achieve such achievements as Hideho, and that his future life would never be peaceful. Hideho had indeed thought of a good position for him before this meeting, but After this incident, Hideho also decided to reconsider. ¡°Takatora, do you think being able to stand guard and bomb is a ¡®step forward¡¯? "Xiu Bao smiled and said: "They are just adapting to the situation, but I can't demand anything now. After all, the qualifications are still young, and these guys still need help from the side. There are some things that just turn a blind eye. " "Yes, it seems that I was overly worried before. "After that, Todo Takatora turned his face and waved behind him. He saw a masked samurai walking out of the corner of the corridor. After bowing to Hideho, Todo and others, he turned and left. During this period, there was a sound of footsteps. It also moved from near to far, and finally disappeared at the end of the corridor. Seeing this scene, Hideho couldn't help but feel startled. He stared at Toudo Takatora in disbelief: "Could it be that you just thought" Toudo Takatora took the lead. All the retainers kowtowed to Hideho, and then replied with a stern expression: "There are some things that my lord cannot do, so I can only let the ministers do it for me. At this critical juncture, no mistakes can be made, otherwise, not only the Yamato Toyotomi clan, but also the world will fall into turmoil and chaos again. I didn¡¯t report it to the lord beforehand. Please forgive me! "
