    Although the stone height is lower than that of the Maeda family (910,000 stone), Hideyoshi's former minister, and slightly higher than that of the Ukita Hideie (670,000 stone), the ministers in Osaka still regard themselves as clan members, and they often disobey the shogunate's orders.  Many daimyo retainers within the shogunate were dissatisfied with this, and many people began to call them the "Osaka Toyotomi clan", "Setsatsu Toyotomi clan" and even the "Osaka clan".  Hideho didn¡¯t say anything about this, but just asked Kikutei Haruji (Tsinghua family) to be the keynote to remind and punish Hideyori.  In August of that year, Hideyoshi's old minister Asano Yukicho died of illness. Since he had no heirs, his second brother Asano Nagasaki inherited 380,000 koku from the Echizen Fuchu Domain, and the voice supporting Hideyori weakened a bit.  On the 18th day of the first lunar month of the 19th year of Keicho (1614), the "Fox of Yushu" Mogami Yoshimitsu died of illness. The eldest son Mogami Yoshiyasu inherited 540,000 koku from the Yamagata Domain and married Tenma, the daughter of Hideho and Komahime, as his legitimate son.  With Hime as the principal wife, the relationship between the shogunate and the Tohoku daimyo was further consolidated.  On the seventh day of April, Hideho took 30,000 koku from the confiscated Yamashiro Kingdom and dedicated it to the emperor's palace, intending to strengthen relations with the imperial court.  At this time, the ministers in the court were also divided into two factions. One faction still insisted on being friendly with the Toyotomi clan. After all, the improvement of the imperial court's status was largely related to the harmony during Hideyoshi's reign; the other faction insisted on strengthening relations with the shogunate, the Yamato Toyotomi clan.  , after Yodohime's death, the window paper has been punctured, and anyone with a discerning eye can see who is the current ruler of Japan, and Hideyasu is also a Toyotomi clan, and now he has become the first public minister with the title of Taisei Minister. This is consistent with  The general direction of making good friends with the Toyotomi clan is not contrary to the current situation of the Toyotomi clan. The more communication there is, the more dangerous it will be and should be treated with caution.  Emperor Goyosei thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to accept Hideho's kindness, and ennobled Hideho's legitimate son Toyotomi Hidemitsu (17 years old) as the Great Nagon, his eldest son Toyotomi Hideken as the Nakagan (18 years old), and his third son Toyotomi.  Xiuqing (16 years old) was admitted to Quan Zhongna.  Hideyori and his retainers in Osaka felt very uncomfortable about this. They requested to see the emperor several times, but they were all declined.  On the ninth day of September, Hideho went to Toyokuni Shrine to pay homage to Hideyoshi and Hideyoshi. By chance, he met Hideyori who was worshiping Hideyoshi. Seeing that he was alone, Hideho felt pity for him and told him that he would ask a miracle doctor from the Ming Dynasty to treat his eye disease. Although Hideyori expressed his gratitude.  , but the gap between the two has not been eliminated.  The following year, the famous doctor Zhang Jingyue went to Osaka on the order of Emperor Wanli to treat Hideyori's eye disease.  Zhang Jingyue is known as "one person from all ages after Zhongjing". He often uses warming and tonic prescriptions for clinical syndromes. He is a representative figure of the warming and tonic school and the actual founder.  This year is already the 16th year that Hideyori has been blind. I thought it would be too late to recover, but Zhang Jingyue has superb medical skills and after his treatment, he can feel some light.  Everyone was pleasantly surprised by this.  About a year later, Zhang Jingyue returned to the Ming Dynasty in response to the imperial edict of Ren Na. Before leaving, he warned Hideyori to be calm and take good care of himself.  At this time, Hideyori could already see blurry images, so he decided to go to Mount Koya to practice meditation.  Hideho agreed and appointed Katagiri Kagemoto as the representative of Osaka Castle. He ordered Toyotomi Hidetoshi and Fukushima Takayoshi to withdraw their troops and return to their bases, ending the nearly two years of control over Osaka Castle.  One day in late May, Hideyori met Tokugawa Ieyasu by chance in the mountains.  Although Ieyasu is old, his mind is very clear. During these years in Mount Koya, he appeared to be concentrating on practice, but in fact he was never willing to fail. However, as the old ministers left one after another, he felt more and more unable to do what he wanted to do.  When he met Hideyori this time, he also took the opportunity to talk to him with a tentative mind.  "Your Highness, I am so lucky to meet you here." In the thatched cottage in the mountains, Tokugawa Ieyasu brewed a cup of tea for Hideyori.  Hideyori only saw the vague outline of Ieyasu in his eyes, but his childhood memories and his marriage to Chiki made him very fond of the old man in front of him. Now the similar situations between the two have made them much closer.  "Your Highness, you are well." Hideyori replied.  "How can there be any inner government? I have been deprived of my official position and now I am just a monk." Ieyasu pretended to sigh.  "You are Chiki's grandfather, so juniors should also bow to you." Hideyori replied.  "Is Chiki okay?" Ieyasu's eyes lit up when he heard his granddaughter's name, and he asked with concern: "She is Hidetada's only living heir I don't know if we will see each other in my lifetime." "Chiki is already pregnant, so wait.  I¡¯ll invite you to Osaka to talk about it in a few days.¡± Speaking of Chiki, Hideyori was very happy, thinking that his legitimate son was about to be born, and he was full of expectations for the future.  "Going to Osaka?" Ieyasu sneered: "Isn't Osaka still in the hands of the shogunate? Besides, the imperial court allows me to leave Mount Koya?" "The shogunate has withdrawn its troops and Osaka is back in my hands. Don't worry about that." Hideyori didn't listen.  The sound of becoming a monk is beyond words.  Ieyasu decided to remind him again: "You are the Toyotomi clan. No matter how powerful the shogunate is, it is just a division of the clan. Just let them??The army can enter and leave the city freely. How does Taige feel in the spirit of heaven?  After all, I am also an old minister of Taige. I can't bear to be touched by the scene, so it's better not to go to Osaka.  " "Then what can I do? Now there are only 700,000 Shi Zhixing left. How can I fight against it?  Hideyori asked back: "Besides, the imperial court and I have already made peace, and we are looking for famous doctors to treat my eye diseases. I really can't think of why I should confront him at this time."  " Tokugawa Ieyasu analyzed it with pretense of concern: "Don't you think about it, where are your retainers, those old Taikou ministers who have entrusted the great responsibility of reviving Toyotomi's great cause to you. Although the shogunate is now powerful, but it was the year before last.  You have also seen the commotion, and there are still many famous names who are loyal to you.  Seeing the slight change in Hideyori's expression, he continued: "China has Ukita Hideie and Fukushima Masanori, Shikoku has Otani Yoshitsugi and Kato Yoshiaki, Kyushu has Kato Tadahiro (son of Kato Kiyomasa), Konishi Yukinaga and Masuzu  Tian Changsheng, Kanto and Ishida Mitsunari, Koshinetsu, Hayami Morihisa and other loyal ministers. With these famous names loyal to His Highness, why worry about the failure of great things?  " "The world has been at peace for more than ten years, and I really can't bear to have the world go to war again.  Moreover, the shogunate is so powerful that it has confiscated many daimyo's territories in recent years. The so-called "gory" (territory directly under the shogun's jurisdiction) alone amounts to more than 4.7 million koku.  How big of a wave can it make?  "Even though Hideyori had expectations in his heart, he still had self-awareness. Moreover, the eye disease was not healed and he still needed Hideho's help. Seeing Hideyori being so cautious, Ieyasu pretended to be angry and said: "You can be content with the status quo, but your descendants  As for the heirs, to be disrespectful, will they end up like the Oda clan?  Qianji is about to give birth to a son, so you should also think more about them.  " Speaking of the Oda family, Hideyori's heart skipped a beat: "Is there a cycle of cause and effect" After thinking for a long time, Hideyori stood up slowly: "Thank you, Your Highness, for reminding me. I will consider it carefully for them. If there is a chance, I will pick you up."  Went to Osaka to meet their mother and son.  " Farewell Ieyasu, Hideyori's originally calm heart was in turmoil again. When he couldn't make up his mind, he could only write to ask Ishida Mitsunari. Mitsunari knew that Ieyasu was sinister and intended to instigate civil strife in the Toyotomi clan and reap the benefits, so he resolutely  He was opposed to Hideyori acting rashly. As for the issues that Hideyori was worried about, he was willing to drag his sick body to Fushimi and communicate with Hideyoshi face to face.  , if anything happens, we can take care of it.  " Ishida Mitsunari wrote sincerely in his reply.
