different warring states of japan

Daosheng wiped the sweat from his head and said with a smile.

"I'm fine, but the child kicked me.

The sage came to Edo Castle to discuss business matters. As a castle representative, I am living on the king's salary. How can I not be diligent in the king's affairs? I will be fine.

Where did we just go?By the way, Inaki misunderstood me.

Inahime is Lord Maeda Toshiie's capable retainer. How dare I take someone else's favor? However, Owari Shiba is far away, and the saint's instructions to reward Inahime are not easy to implement.

Inaki, do you think this is true? "

Ina Chuji couldn't understand Shima Katsuruo's intention, but Shima Katsuramu's weak appearance made the saint feel distressed. Ina Chuji did not dare to speak out at this time, refute randomly and cause trouble.

Furthermore, what Shima Shengmu said is indeed correct.

It is best to implement things like rewards under the eyes of the leader, otherwise it is really unclear.

The samurai family values ​​land the most. If Ina Tadashi is rewarded for his military merits, Owari Shiba will most likely not dare to do anything wrong.

After all, the land acquired by licking the blood from the edge of the knife cannot be touched lightly. If it causes trouble, the military will take care of it, and the local forces will have to pull out a group of samurai to commit seppuku.

But Ina Chuji was rewarded for his excellence in domestic politics. In the eyes of those uneducated killers at the bottom, any reward other than military merit was considered lucky and not respected.

Ina Chuji is working in Kanto and cannot return to Owari Shiba. He is watching the implementation of the reward. It is really uncertain how many points he will get in the end.

Let alone the saint's reward, if anyone dares to discount it, the Wu family can really do such a thing.

The Wu family first served as guards who guarded the manor for the emperor and his ministers, and were also called attendants.

The characteristic of the manorial economy is that it is self-sufficient and self-contained. In other words, you can live a small life by yourself behind closed doors.

Starting from the manor of the emperor and his ministers, the original accumulation of the samurai family was to embezzle the property of the manor and guard and steal it.

Later, times changed, and the subordinate Wu family managed the manor for the superior Wu family, and they also managed it. The manor became the subordinate Wu family's own.

Regardless of whether it is the emperor's ministers and other public figures, or the generals and guardians of the military family, the subordinates of the military family embezzle them equally. If you are not greedy or stealing, you are stupid.

Even if he were replaced by the saint Yiyin now, the behavior pattern of the low-level martial arts family would not change.

If Ina Chuji doesn't look after his territory, there is a 100% chance that it will be usurped by others.

At that time, the governor of the Imperial family was so powerful that he helped the tenth generation general to go to Luo. He was named the guardian generation and assisted the general in governing the world. He was in the limelight for a while.

But the Ouchi family's territory is because the governor has been in the capital for a long time and has not returned. Those retainers are also embezzling land and collecting taxes. I will not be soft just because your governor is prestigious outside.

The decline of the Ouchi family began with the long-term absence of the family governor, who made him cry when he talked about it.

Not only the Ouchi family, but also all the major guardian families of the Ashikaga shogunate. Hosokawa, Shiba and other families, who has not suffered from this?

The first thing the samurai family did to suppress their superiors was that the family governor worked in the shogunate and stayed away from home all year round. The acting official who assisted in managing the local area took the opportunity to vacate the family governor's power and finally replaced him.

Yoshigan's own Echizen Owari Ryogoku was lost in this way, and the Shiba clan was finally wiped out by the concubine of the Owari guardian Dai Oda family.

The so-called troubled times not only mean frequent wars, but also the breakdown of etiquette and music, the absence of order, and everyone acting like animals.Without rules, everyone only cares about interests and not morality. In the end, no one feels safe. Instead, they think about the benefits of order. This is called long-term chaos and war-weariness, and people's peace of mind.

Shima Katsuo didn't say a word about his wishful thinking. Instead, he was concerned about whether Ina Chuji could really get the reward. These words instantly made the wary Ina Chuji agree a little bit.

Ina Chuji thought about it, but it was still difficult to determine Shima Shengmu's intention, but out of caution, she would rather miss the reward than become a villain who betrayed her old master, so she said simply.

"I am a retainer of Maeda. The saint has rewards, and the family governor has a noble character. He will naturally implement the saint's wishes. I am not worried at all."

Upon hearing this, Dao Shengmeng immediately laughed.

Anyone who is not worried will never emphasize that I am not worried at all.As long as it is emphasized, it must be worried.

After all, Ina Chuji was an honest technician, and he was led into the ditch by Shima Katsuo after just a few words.

The saint was still praising Inai Zhong for his hard work and great achievements. He could not let the meritorious officials feel cold and must be rewarded heavily.

At this moment, the hero has begun to worry that his reward will not be fulfilled. Where will the saint lose his face?
Compared with Ina Chuji's reward, the saint's face is more important. Speaking of which, if Yoshihiro doesn't settle this matter, how will he convince the public in the future?

Just as Shima Shengmeng expected, Yiyin's eyes flashed and he became a little hesitant.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Maeda Toshiie's character, it's just that he doesn't believe in those bastards under Maeda Toshiie.

The Wu family are all bastards, this is what Yiyin thinks in his heart.It is better to expect the Wu family to not be selfish than to expect a sow to climb a tree.

Maeda Toshiie will definitely not treat Ina Chuji badly, but Yoshigan cannot guarantee the behavior of her retainers.

If some fool thinks that the emperor is far away, and deducts a small share and puts it into his own bowl, even if it is discovered that the body is quartered, Yiyin's face will definitely be lost.

It would be better to choose some land for Ina Chuji in the Higashi Musashi Land. Since Shima Katsuo personally guaranteed it in front of the saint, he would naturally keep an eye on it from beginning to end and nothing would go wrong.

Yoshigan was a little moved, but he was still a little hesitant about whether placing the fiefdom of Ina Chuji, a Maeda retainer, in the Higashi Musashi area would cause conflicts among the family's hilltops.

Dao Shengmeng watched his words, saw that the heat was coming, and finally gave it a gentle push.

"Inaki, I don't understand what you're saying.

Your reward is given by a saint, and it has nothing to do with Maeda Toshiie-sama or our island's Shengmeng. We acting officials have our own way of knowing and doing, and it is our duty to manage the Shiba Territory.

As a Maeda retainer, if Lord Maeda Toshiie wants to reward you, the Owari Maeda family can discuss it behind closed doors.

But the saint's reward is another matter. The saint's grace comes from Spo, and is the direct jurisdiction of the saint. It cannot be confused with the same thing.

Whether the saint rewards you is the land of Owari Shiba Territory or the land of Kanto Shiba Territory, it is reasonable.

Neither I nor Toshiie Maeda has the right to interfere. Do you think this is the truth? "

Ina Chuji nodded subconsciously, his mind was still a little confused, and he didn't know how to understand Shima Shengmu's statement.

By deconstructing the power structure between Daikan and Shiba, Shima Katsuo gave Ina Chuji a reason to safely accept Tomoyuki in the land of Higashimusashi.

The ownership of the land in the Shiba Territory, and the existence of a thing with unclear ownership called the Shiba Mine, became a tool used by Daosheng Meng to deceive people.
