Chapter 1864 Sudden turmoil in Kanto

Seeing Kamaojigo and Ii Naomasa saluting with serious expressions, Yoshigami couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Tell me, what happened again?"

Pu Shengshixiang frowned and whispered.

"An urgent report from Kanto is that the people of Yamazaka Xingdao ignored Zhu Ji's persuasion and insisted on going his own way. He boarded the ship in Naoejin and came to Kinki for the funeral.

Counting the time, I might have disembarked at Tsuruga Port by now. "

Yiyin frowned and cursed.

"Nonsense! What a nonsense! This Yamanaka Yukimori, does she have any organizational discipline at all?
She is the deacon of the Kanto Waiting Office! She just ran back without any care, how should others treat her and the Sibo family! "

Yoshigan did not expect that Yamanaka Yukimori would commit such a taboo. Even low-level mistakes could not describe her stupidity.

The Kanto Palace is the foundation of the Shiba family in Kanto, and the entire Kanto New Order grew out of this root.

Yamanaka Yukimori and Shima Katsuruo are important ministers of the Shiba family, and they are the anchors for Yoshigan to stay in Kanto to take care of the overall situation.

Shima Katsumon is located in the Shiba Territory of Kanto, and his jurisdiction includes the Oku Territory of Ueno Country and the Higashi Musashi Territory of Musashi Country.

If you look at the overall situation from the sky, you can find that the Kanto Shiba Territory is located in the center of the eight Kanto states, dividing the three powerful Kanto vassals.

Ueno and Shimono of the Uesugi family, Sagami of the Hojo family, Nishimusashi, Bosou, and Hitachi of the Takeda family. The intersection of the three parties occupying the Kanhachishu territory is the Kanto Shiba territory of Shima Katsumaru.

Daosheng Meng, she is the fulcrum of the Shiba family in Guanbazhou.

Across the Echigo Mountains, Yamazaka Yukimori occupied Tobi Castle in the Echigo Kingdom, which was the gateway town between China and Vietnam facing Shimotsu.

There are two branches of Xia Yue under the command of Xing Sheng in the mountain.

Kachizhong extends to the four Aizu counties in southern Ou, which is the only way to enter and leave Kanto from the Ou area.

Honsho is encroaching on the Shonai area on the coast of Dewa Province. This is the connection point between the front and back of Yu, and can also be regarded as the dividing line between the north and south of the Ou area.

To put it simply, Shima Shengmeng is located at the center of Guanbazhou. Looking at the actions of the three powerful vassals, it is also a cushion for all forces in Guanbazhou.

Yamanaka Yukimori occupies the northeastern end of Echigo, gradually penetrates into the Ou area, and is the strategic fulcrum in the northeastern part of the Kanto region.

In addition, Sanada Nobushige looked at the Nishi Ueno area and controlled the pass between Kanhachishu and the Koshinobu Mountains.

Although the Shiba family does not occupy much land in Kanto, they can already use the political balance of the Kanto Palace and the leverage influence of the strategic fulcrum to hold the entire Kanto samurai family together.

But Yamanaka Yukimori, who was an important part of it, actually left her post without permission and ran back to Kinki without any care.

Not to mention that others won't persuade her, Kaji Jingzuna and Honjo Shigenaga are not fools. They will definitely try their best to pull Yamanaka Yukimori and not let her go.

The only possibility is that Yamanaka Yukimori refused to listen and insisted on returning to Kinki. This would be too bad.

Not to mention how Yoshigan will deal with her dereliction of duty, just saying that Yamanaka Yukimori's purpose of running back to Kinki is to avenge Nizi Katsuhisa's funeral is enough to cause a new round of political turmoil.

The Nizi Mountain Party is the largest one within the Shiba family. Nizi Katsuhisa serves as a contemporary official in Kinki Shiba, and Yamanaka Yukimori serves as a deacon at the Kanto Shrine. Both of them hold high positions of authority.

One is from Kinki and the other is from Kanto. The two of them have a close relationship and are united as one. This is how the Nizi Mountain Party is in the limelight at home.

Among the important ministers of the Shiba family, only the Nizi mountain party can influence both sides of Kinki and Kanto. They are all trusted and close favorites of the saint. They have worked for seven or eight years and accumulated a profound foundation.

However, with the assassination of Nizi Katsuhisa and Yamanaka Yukimori's neglect of his duties, the power of Nizi's party is likely to collapse, resulting in a huge power void.

Once there is a vacuum in power, someone will immediately actively fill it. The collapse of one party in the Nizi Mountain is likely to cause an imbalance of power in the various mountains in the Sibo family, triggering a new round of strife.

Nizi Shengjiu had no heirs, and the Nizi party in Kinki was leaderless after the funeral.

Yamanaka Yukimori did nothing serious and left his post without permission to come to Kinki. Even if Yoshihiro didn't want to care about him, others would use both soft and hard methods to care about him.

After all this trouble, even if Yamanaka Yukimori can go back and continue to be the deacon of the Kanto Palace, her prestige and power will be greatly reduced.

No one will pay attention to a boss who may run away at any time, and subordinates will despise her whims and question her leadership ability.

Yamanaka Yukimori's escape was extremely irresponsible and put the Shiba family's ruling system in Kanto at systemic risk. Even if Yoshigan wanted to protect her, it would be difficult to explain to the Shiba family internally.

Furthermore, Nizi Katsuhisa's death has become a complex political choice.

The question of whether to continue the conquest of the Maori family was already full of gunpowder. Yamanaka Yukimori's raging fire came back, and Yoshigami was worried that he would not be able to control the explosion that might happen next.

The Nizi Mountain Party is the largest one in Shiba's family. Even if Nizi Katsuhisa dies and Yamazaka Yukimori's nonsense may lead to decline, at this juncture, the influence is still great.

Shiba Oda's two princess samurai groups are making noises about conquering the Maori family and avenging Nizi Katsuhisa. Yamanaka Yukimori, the culprit, comes back and acts as a spearman for everyone and can be used as a leader.

Although Yiyin wanted to attack Maori, he did not want to be swayed by public opinion and wanted to follow his own pace.

But if public opinion surges and forces the Lord to take things out of Yiyin's control, this is unbearable for every person in power.

Yoshigami breathed out a deep breath, he really didn't want to deal with Yamanaka Yukimori.

Nizi Shanzhong fell in love with the sisters, Nizi Shengjiu died, and Shanzhong Xingsheng was heartbroken and made some impulsive actions, which Yiyin can understand.

But if this idiot Yukimori Yamanaka is really taken advantage of by someone, Yoshigami won't be able to deal with her even if he doesn't want to.

Why hasn't this guy Yukimori Yamanaka made any progress over the years? He has always been so impulsive, always so stubborn, and has always made stupid mistakes.

Yiyin loves her and pities her, but her nonsense this time is too much. This is to force Yiyin to punish her severely.

Nizi Shenghisa had just passed away. If Yamazaka Yukimori acted recklessly, Yoshigan would be forced to ruthlessly deal with Nizi's gang. Thinking of this, Yoshigan felt more and more uncomfortable.

Naturally, he didn't want to be close to Nizi Shanzhong, but the situation was moving towards a situation he didn't want to see, forcing him to make that choice.

If only Nizi Katsuhisa was still alive, she would be able to suppress Yamanaka Yukimori, a beautiful and brainless little fool, and prevent herself from being embarrassed.

Just when Yoshihiro felt aggrieved, Ii Naomasa couldn't help but tell even worse news.

"Sage, the Wu Family Principles Promotion Association urgently reports that Yuxin of Miao'an Temple, Shanghui of Sanguang Temple, Zhehuang of Wuliang Temple, Kaixin of Yanglin Temple, and the four nuns suddenly disappeared and their whereabouts are unknown."

Yiyin hadn't recovered yet, but hearing these names sounded familiar, he subconsciously said.

"These big nuns..."

When he realized who these people were, his hair suddenly stood up, cold sweat broke out on his back, and he stood up suddenly.

"What? The four of them disappeared together? When?"

Ii Naomasa nodded solemnly. "Not long ago, there was a turmoil in Kanto, rumors were spreading, it was speculated that they were absconding in fear of crime, and there was a huge deficit in the accounts of the Wu Family Giri Promotion Association.

A large number of middle- and lower-level martial artists have been seeking verification from the Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association through various channels, and the situation is developing rapidly.

Saint, this matter is extremely urgent.

Last year, the Wujia Yili Promotion Association also announced a new water conservancy construction plan, preparing to borrow 2000 million dan over ten years. This plan has already begun to be implemented.

In addition, the Samurai Giri Promotion Association has raised up to 300 million koku in food coupons in various names in recent years through the Tukura controlled by these four nuns from the Tukura of Kamakura Gozan and other temples.

Most of the money and food are lying in the accounts, but the person who manages the accounts has disappeared. Whether the physical goods are still there or not, Kanto is also hesitating whether to open a warehouse and conduct a thorough investigation.

If a full position is opened and a thorough investigation is carried out, the eyes of the entire Kanto region will be fixed on it. Once a huge deficit is discovered, public opinion will be unstoppable.

Now the middle and lower class Wu family in Guanbazhou, who are the borrowing entities, have been asking whether the money and food they borrowed are still there.

If the time delay is too long, it may cause local turmoil and cause huge destructive power. I also ask the saint to make an early decision and investigate the case strictly. "

Yoshiyin stared at Ii Naomasa, almost squeezing out words through his teeth.

"Do you think the disappearance of these four people has anything to do with that guy Naoyoshi Hanzawa?"

Naomasa Ii did not dare to deceive the saint, so he lowered his head and said.

"Naoyoshi Hanzawa is also dedicated to serving the public..."

Yoshigan laughed angrily, interrupting Ii Naomasa's words.

"What a public-minded person! What a selfless Naoyoshi Hanzawa! I told you! I told her not to meddle in other people's business! She is so brave!"

Seeing the saint's rage, Ii Naomasa couldn't help but defend Hanzawa Naoyoshi.

“The disappearance of the four nuns shows that there is indeed a huge corruption problem within the Wu Family Principles Promotion Association.

Hanzawa Naoyoshi's judgment was correct, and she also followed the authority in a hurry, and was a wise saint. . "

Yiyin waved his hand and shouted.

"I'm not wise! You are wise! You are the real wise ones! You can all make the decision for me!"

Kamaojigo decisively grabbed Ii Naomasa, and the two of them knelt down together.

Yoshiyin looked at Ii Naomasa who was still unconvinced and wanted to go up and kick her.

Is there any problem with the Wu Family Ethics Promotion Association? The four nuns who were in charge of the accounts all ran away together, so of course there was a big problem!

But Yoshigan is now in a state of distress. The death of Nizi Katsuhisa involves the Kinki Shiba leader, the Western Kingdom strategy, the Shiba Oda relationship, and the Yamanaka Yukimori who came to cause trouble.

At this juncture, Yoshigan just hopes to concentrate on solving the problem of the Western Kingdom, but Naoyoshi Hanzawa dares to break the sky in Kanto without authorization. What is she going to do!
Yamanaka Yukimori is Yoshigan's woman, and Yoshigan is willing to use his brains to protect her.

But that Hanzawa Naoyoshi is the elder, a little Ji Ji warrior who is so pretentious and unscrupulous that he pokes such a big trap. He really doesn't want his life!

Yiyin was confused at the moment. One side was Xiguo and the other was Guanbazhou. Which one was more important? Of course it’s Guan Bazhou!

If Xiguo is lost, the Sibo family will not be hurt, but it will be embarrassed at most, and Guanbazhou is the foundation place that Yiyin spent countless efforts to straighten out.

If it falls into chaos due to corruption and returns to troubled times, Yiyin doesn't know how much energy and resources it will take to restore peace to the eight states.

Thinking of this, Yi Yin's head almost exploded.

Hanzawa Naoyi didn't know the importance of it, and she didn't know what method she used to scare away the four nuns.

This will indeed force Yoshibank to thoroughly investigate the major corruption case in Kanto, but the unprepared Yoshibank may also be unable to control the situation, causing the nascent political stability in Kanto to collapse.

Ii Naomasa was such a stupid fool, and she was still scratching her head, trying to defend Hanzawa Naoyi.

Naoyoshi Hanzawa, that bastard! What a traitor! Treacherous yet loyal!

Yamanaka Yukimori left Kanto at exactly this time, leaving the Shiba family with one less fulcrum in Kanto, and making Yoshigami even more anxious.

Yiyin thought for a while and ordered decisively.

"Pass my royal order.

Sanada Nobunagan was loyal to the emperor and the country, and had repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. He was appointed as the deacon of the Kanto Shifu in the Jin Dynasty. He immediately stationed in Tomi Castle to take over the deacon's duties and handle related affairs.

Shima Katsumon sat in Edo Castle to appease the samurai families in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River, telling them that we, Shiba Yiyin, do not care whether there is money or food in the books of the samurai family giri promotion association, we will guarantee that they will not lose money and food.

In addition, let Ozo Changan and Ina Chuji immediately announce the Ashio Copper Mountain project and announce the annual new money output of 30 guan.

Not to mention that the problem has not been found in Kanto, even if there is a problem, I will use the Ashio Copper Mountain to fill it up for them, and first stabilize the hearts of the people in the eight states of Kanto.

Also, the Kanto Palace is required to hold a major review and the Standing Council to come forward and make every effort to maintain stability.

I will go to Kanto later to handle relevant matters personally and let all parties stabilize their positions and wait for my return.

By the way, arrest Naoyoshi Hansawa immediately and arrest this treacherous and loyal bastard! "

Yiyin knew in his heart that the personal expedition to the Western Kingdom must be put aside. The injustice in Guandong meant that he had no energy left to do other things.

Yamanaka Yukimori left his post without authorization, and there was a gap in the Tochio Castle front line. Yoshibank could only use Sanada Nobunshige to fill this hole to maintain the stability of the Echigo Ou front line.

Sanada Nobunshige may not be the most suitable candidate, but her military exploits are great enough and she is an important minister in Shiba's establishment. She has not much involvement with the Echigo samurai family and the Kanhachishu samurai family.

As a neutral party stationed in Tomi Castle at the critical juncture, Sanada Nobushige will not arouse ill feelings from all parties and intensify conflicts. He is the best firefighter that Yoshibank can think of for the time being.

The diversion project of the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River in Kanhachishu has just been launched, and the impact on the Shimoso Shimonohitachi samurai family along the diversion is minimal.

The loans in recent years have been mainly used for water conservancy construction in the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River, and the relevant samurai families have many overlaps with the Kanto Spur Territory.

As a Girihime samurai, Shima Katsuo has always had prestige. With her coming to appease people, he can temporarily stabilize the middle and lower reaches of the Tone River.

At this time, people in Guanbazhou were panicking, fearing that the money in their accounts would be lost. Fortunately, Yoshibank also had an unannounced Ashio Copper Mountain money printing machine.

No matter how the construction of Ashio Copper Mountain goes, Yoshibank must claim an annual production capacity of 30 guan, otherwise it will not be able to stabilize public opinion.

The most important thing is that he must rush back to Kanto as soon as possible to deal with this emergency.
