    On July 17, the first year of Yongning (1617), Hideho's seven sons were born to Hideho's main wife (Kiku Odai), who were later named Toyotomi Hidetaka. They were entrusted with a total of 320,000 shi in Northern Yamato (Xinzhuang) and Hanoi.  It was called "Xinzhuang Fan".  Soon after Emperor Goyosei died, Hideho advocated Prince Hachijomiya Chihito, the adopted son of Hara Hideyoshi and the younger brother of Emperor Goyosei, as the emperor. Since the emperor died, he took the nickname Gohanayamain, so later generations often called him Emperor Gohanashan.  Faced with the spread of Christianity, Hideho decided to further implement the "Bantenren Emancipation Order" of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's era, expel foreign missionaries from the country and strictly separate missionaries from Nanban trade, and impose many restrictions on daimyo who believed in Christianity, hoping that they would  Give up the Christian faith.  At the same time, eminent monks were invited from the Ming Dynasty to cross the sea to spread Buddhism and further strengthen the integration of sacred and Buddhist practices to compete with and weaken the influence of Christianity in Japan.  In March of the following year, in order to strengthen the centralization of power, prevent local tyrants from getting bigger, resolve the unstable factors that would occur in the later stages of the shogunate, and further safeguard the rule, the shogunate promulgated the "One City, One Country Order".  In the fourth year (1620), the "Tuien Order" was promulgated, which was known as the "Yongning Shuang Order" in history.  The "One City, One Country Order" requires that, except with the special permission of the shogunate, only one daimyo's main city or residence city can be retained in a country (command state or daimyo's vassal state), and the remaining cities must be abolished.  However, when a daimyo possessed multiple reishi kingdoms, each of them was allowed to retain one city. For example, Mouri Hidemoto owned Aki and Bingo, so in addition to the main city of Hiroshima, Bingo  Fushan Castle was also allowed to be retained.  The "Tianen Order" stipulates that after the daimyo dies, in addition to the eldest son who inherits the family governor, other legitimate and concubine heirs can also be allocated part of the land of the vassal and become branch vassals. The daimyo can appeal for this, and the shogunate will make the final decision (in fact, only a few genealogies  (Except with the permission of the agent), the branch vassal vassal found another plain to build a residential city in accordance with the requirements of the "One City, One Country Order", and the necessary expenses were paid by the main vassal and the branch vassal themselves.  When the subsequent vassal administration is in difficulty and the main vassal is unable to support it, you can apply to the shogunate to hand over the fiefdom and receive preferential treatment.  The promulgation of the "Yongning Double Order" caused another turmoil in the long-stable world. What Hideho did not expect was that the first to object was his own in-laws, the lord of the Yamagata domain Mogami Yoshiyasu, and his brothers Mogami Yoshiki, Shimizu Yoshikiyo, and Yamano  After Mogami Yoshimitsu's death, Ben Yoshitaka has been coveting a share of his huge inheritance. This policy of the shogunate gave them an opportunity to take advantage of it.  Although Mogami Yoshimitsu died six years before the promulgation of the "Tween Order", the shogunate stipulated that any brother who succeeded the feudal lord after the opening (i.e. the eighth year of Keicho) could invoke the "Tween Order" to appeal against the previous succession situation, and the shogunate  Decide if applicable.  With such a big commotion within the Mogami clan, the shogunate obviously would not sit idly by and just sent envoys to Deyu to investigate and reconcile.  At this time, Date Masamune, the lord of the Sendai domain, also had many heirs. He was afraid of changes in his family after his death, so he expressed his opposition to the "Tianfa Order".  In addition, Tadashi Shimazu, the lord of Satohara domain, also called on several daimyo to boycott, which was known in history as the "Gengshin Rebellion" or the "Tween Rebellion".  Hideho was actually prepared for this when the "One City, One Country" was promulgated. On the one hand, he mobilized the army to actively prepare for war to deter the unruly daimyo. On the other hand, he lured the daimyo's supporters (such as concubines and brothers, etc.) from within.  Divide opposition forces.  On October 28, Mogami Yoshiyasu's third brother, Shimizu Yoshikiyo, raised troops at Yonezawa Castle and attacked Yamagata Castle as a vanguard. Kamao Hideyuki and Uesugi Kagekatsu stationed troops at the border of Yamagata Domain; Date Masamune's concubine sent ninjas to assassinate Date Masamune in Sendai that night.  , the Ida family fell into chaos.  On November 3rd, Mogami Yoshinori opened the city gate as a spy, and Mogami Yoshiyasu surrendered.  After inspecting the land, the number of Mogami stones was found to be as high as 780,000.  The shogunate deliberated and decided to order Mogami Yoshiyasu to retire, and appointed Yoshihiro Mogami (son-in-law of Hideho), the legitimate son of Yoshiyasu, as the family governor. He would inherit 330,000 koku from Yamagata and Mogami counties, and the name would still be called Yamagata Domain;  Five thousand koku, it was called the Shonai Domain; Shimizu Yoshikiyo inherited the 180,000 koku prefecture and was called Yonezawa Domain; his fourth brother, Yamanobe Yoshitaka, inherited 80,000 koku from the two prefectures of Okai and Xiongsheng, and was called Iwasaki Domain; and there was Yuri  The county's fifty-four thousand stones were included in the imperial leadership.  Two days later, facing the intimidation of the shogunate army, the Date family retainers opened the gates of Sendai City and welcomed the troops of Kamao and Utsunomiya into the city.  Hideho destroyed the city of Sendai and divided the 650,000 koku into six parts, which were divided between the shogunate and the five sons of Date Masamune.  The legitimate son Date Tadamune was the nominal governor of the family and inherited the two counties of Iwai and Kurihara, totaling 150,000 koku, and was called the Hiraizumi Domain; the eldest son Date Hidemune (close to the Toyotomi clan) inherited the four counties of Miyagi, Natori, Shibata, and Watari.  Forty thousand koku was called Iwakiri Domain; the fourth son Date Munayasu inherited Kami, Kurokawa, and Tamazukuri's 115,000 koku and was called Iwadeyama Domain; the fifth son Date Munetsuna inherited the three counties of Tome, Toda, and Shida with 86,000  Stone, called Sanuma Domain; The sixth son Date Munanobu inherited 56,000 koku from the three counties of Katata, Igu, and Uta, and was called the Shiroishi Domain; the 140,000 koku from the six counties of Dansawa, Esagi, Kesen, Motobu, and Oshika were taken into the imperial domain by the shogunate.  On November 20th, Shimazu Yoshihiro held a review, deposed Tadashi as governor of the family, opened the city to welcome the shogunate army, Hideho dismembered the Satohara clan into three families, and the "Gengshen Rebellion" subsided.  Historically, the "Yongning Shuangling" was regarded as another weakening of the shogunate's external daimyo after the "Osaka Formation". At this point, no daimyo in the world dared to express doubt or challenge the authority of the shogunate.  For the daimyo who participated in quelling the rebellion, Hideho issued a "separate notice for the extension of grace" to them, allowing them to postpone the extension of grace for a period of time, giving them sufficient time to eliminate the unstable factors in advance. At the same time, Hideho also verbally promised that the shogunate would  Favor the main vassal to ease the conflict with the powerful vassal.  In February of the fifth year of Eining (1621), shortly after he went to Wakayama to meet Hideyori, Mito Domain Lord Ishida Mitsunari fell ill. Even though there were famous doctors for diagnosis and treatment, there was no cure.  Regardless of his serious illness, this important minister of the Toyotomi clan insisted on going to Fushimi to see Hideho.  Facing this veteran who has assisted the Toyotomi family for more than 40 years, Hideho felt sad, gratified and admired at the same time. The sad thing was that even if the end was approaching, he was still running for Hideyori; gratifyingly, compared to the original  History, he lived for more than twenty years, and he could be regarded as spending his later years as a daimyo; what is admirable is that now that Fukushima, Kato, Hachisuka, Asano and other former Hideyoshi ministers have surrendered to Hideho, he  Still loyal to Hideyori unreservedly, this kind of loyalty is really rare.  "Please be sure to support Youfu to become Guanbai!" Ishida Mitsunari was so angry that he struggled to support his body with his hands and looked at Hideho longingly.  "Don't worry, Danzheng (he was promoted from the fourth position to Danzheng Dabi the year before last), I will do what I promised Taige and Mrs. Yodo."  Hideho nodded solemnly.  Two days later, Ishida Mitsunari died of illness in Osaka Yashiki, and his soul returned to Osaka, which was considered as his wish.  In addition, Masuda Nagamori died of illness two years ago, and all the five members of the Hideyoshi era passed away. The wheels of history are rolling so ruthlessly.
