Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 1948 Returning to Japan (卌五) Each has its own purpose
Just as Ah Xiu felt, the Arbitrary faction and the Pursuing faction are completely incompatible.Not only do they disagree with each other in terms of behavior, but more importantly, the sources of power in their hands are different, so the things that need to be maintained are naturally completely different.

Sancheng wants to persuade everyone to put the young protagonist Xiu Lai as the most important thing, unite as one, and always maintain Toyotomi's justice.This is because only when Toyotomi's public instruments are maintained to the highest degree can the priests, who are an important part of the Toyotomi public instrument system, always have huge and stable power.

In order to achieve his goal, he pretended to be superior.According to his calculation, let everyone remember the Taiko here first, and if possible, then show everyone the strategy against Tokugawa.But what surprised him was that both Kiyomasa and Yukinaga categorically opposed it from the very beginning.With the lingering anger on the battlefield and the accumulated evils in the territory, they were all worried.

"Why don't you answer?" Seeing that he didn't answer, Asano Yukinaga became more reassured, and even refused to forgive him.

"Forget it, forget it." The older Todo Takatora, who is 42 years old this year, stopped Yukinaga and smoothed things over: "His Highness Jibu is also for our own good, so he wants to comfort us. There are still many ships going ashore one after another. Well, let's take our leave after we finish our meal, and don't delay military affairs, this is the right thing to do."

For Todo Takatora who was able to "escape in the chaos" when he was trapped in the enemy, Asano Yukunaga was still willing to give some face.After all, he had seen the strength of the Ming army many times, and he was able to escape from the Ming army's camp. He didn't need to think about it and knew that he was close to death. It can be seen that although Fujido could not beat the Ming army in water battles, he really couldn't be blamed.

Hey, in fact, just looking at this withdrawal, you can tell that the Ming army's navy is too powerful.This is the same as a 30-year-old man beating a three-year-old child. Whoever takes command can only be defeated.Xingchang closed his mouth, took another look at Qingzheng, and silently picked up his rice bowl.Qing Zhengze chewed silently with a stern face, and sniffed his nose a few times from time to time.

"I was indeed impulsive, and my voice was a little louder."

I don't know if I couldn't help it, although Xingchang began to eat and drink, he still said: "However, if you use Taige's prestige to bully people here and show off your prestige, then I will not agree! I am not just talking about Jibu Shaosuke One person, in the past some people would only pester Taige and flatter His Highness to please His Highness, but now that His Highness has passed away, they should go back to where they should be. If they still want to stay where they are, I will definitely Intolerable!"

Ah Xiu was extremely startled when he heard this, and felt that if he hadn't just returned from the battlefield, no one would have dared to speak like that.

"It's really delicious!" Katsushige Nabeshima was the first to put down his chopsticks.

He defeated the general Dong Yiyuan of the Ming army with a weak force in the northeast of North Korea, and created the only real victory of the Japanese army after the Ming army counterattacked. Therefore, he speaks with confidence now: "I still want to inspect the camp, and I will leave first." Yes. Although I have returned to my homeland, I am relieved, but if there is a dispute between the retainers, there is no doubt that there is a big worry. So... I will take my leave first, and I will not accompany you."

Although there is confidence in the military exploits, but if you go back to the source, the Nabeshima family seems to be a bit "won the country". In the past, the status and reputation among the daimyos were not very good.Although he also felt awkward and even dangerous now, but he asked himself that there was probably only these things he could do.

"Then, I think we'll stop here today." Yukinaga finally held back and didn't say any more harsh words, followed Katsushige, and urged Kiyomasa to go out.

Zong Zhan, Guangyue and the women sent the generals out, but only Sancheng remained motionless, to be precise, he was so disappointed that he was unable to stand up.

Axiu and others returned to the hall, and after cleaning up, Ishida Mitsunari was still alone in a daze, motionless.Because of his extremely gloomy expression and eyes that looked like a poisonous snake that would bite anyone at any time, Zong Zhan hurriedly urged Guangyue and his granddaughter back to the room.

Ah Xiu gently sat next to Sancheng.Even though she was the only one left, Sancheng still sat there blankly, neither moving nor making a sound.Axiu couldn't bear it anymore, and said: "Your Highness, is the sliding door just like this?"

"That's it, don't worry about it."

"Your Highness, you are really calm."

"You're wrong."

"Then what does His Highness mean..."

"How could I be angry?" As he spoke, Sancheng suddenly turned to Axiu and asked, "Do you think it's hard to stay by my side?"

When Sancheng asked so unexpectedly, Axiu was a little at a loss: "This...what is your Highness referring to?"

"I plan to take you to the capital."

"The capital?"

"I wonder if you can bear it."

Axiu opened her eyes wide in surprise, but soon smiled slightly: "Your Highness, don't force yourself too much."

"I didn't force it. If you don't want to go, I won't force you either. Hehe..."

Seeing that Sancheng smiled, Ah Xiu was startled and didn't speak.For the first time, she strongly felt the loneliness in this man's heart.How could he not be angry!Ah Xiu is not so dull that he can't even see this lie.If he is confident enough, he will take the initiative to drag Xingchang to the yard, and everyone will draw their swords to a showdown.

However, the fact that he doesn't engage in kendo duels doesn't mean that he really doesn't have enough confidence. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone in the world should find those great kendo masters to do it?He has been suppressing the anger in his heart because he has a bigger ambition buried in his heart.

"Why, you don't like it? Don't want to go?"

"Bring a woman like me, His Highness will probably regret it after a while."

"You speak like Dr. Zuo Jing."

"Doctor Zuo Jing?"

"Hmph! That fellow scolded me for being the second-to-last among the five obediences. Hmph, is the second-to-last obedience worthy of Hakata Oiran?"

"This... Your Highness is overthinking, your status is beyond doubt."

"Undoubtedly? I don't think so." Ishida Mitsunari lowered his head slightly, and said in an almost inaudible voice: "...But His Royal Highness taught me a truth with his life experience: people, never give up striving for the top."

More than ten days later, Kinki.

Maeda Toshiie coaxed Hideyori to play for more than an hour in this city, which was rare, before he retreated.Maeda Mansion is close to Xiyuan, on the right hand side of the gate of Xiyuan, only a few steps away from Xiu Lai's residence.

After returning home, the Li family did not speak for a long time.

From the end of autumn in the third year of Qingchang, he had a severe cough with profuse phlegm, and occasionally even coughed up streaks of blood when he woke up every morning.Qu Naose Xuanshuo was diagnosed with tuberculosis, and Yan Da Nayan had serious liver and lung diseases.Hideyoshi's death seemed to make Toshika's illness worse.

In the early years, Hideyoshi was a close friend of the Toshi family when he was still in the tent of Nobunaga in Qingzhou City. Later, Hideyoshi changed and became a hero of the generation that the Toshi family admired and even feared.In Toshika's view, Hideyoshi is indeed unusual, possessing the great power to appease the world...

However, when such a person faces death, he turns into a pathetic mortal, and all the things he shows are unbearable to look at directly.This undoubtedly poured a basin of cold water on Li Jia's head - life is really sad!

Toshika was upright by nature, Hideyoshi's death was tantamount to a fatal blow to him, which made him depressed day by day, exhausted physically and mentally, and finally became seriously ill.

Today in this city, Hideyori has been pestering him, talking about "grandpa".Whenever Hideyoshi shouted that, his heart felt chills.I don't know who taught it, but Hideyori has been referring to Toshie as "Kaga's grandfather" and Ieyasu as "Edo's grandfather" recently.

To be honest, Xiu Lai's voice is crisp and innocent, but because of this, every time he yells, Toshika's heart becomes hot, and he can't help but want to shed tears.

Despite this, Lijia still seemed to have been taken out of his backbone, and his whole body was weak. Even he himself couldn't help asking himself: Why is this?
Sometimes, Toshiie would even experience auditory hallucinations, as if Hideyoshi from the ground was saying: "Hideyoshi, please, please, please." That "Hideyoshi" always said these things repeatedly.

In fact, Hideyoshi kept saying these words and died, which gave Toshie a feeling, as if Hideyoshi was telling him: "Toshie, this is the true face of life. You will die like this soon." The endless horror and sadness of Lijia.

The Toshi family was resting in their room, and his wife Asong, who had come to visit from Kaga, brought over a decoction excitedly.

"It's great to have less coughing today!"

As soon as Asong finished speaking, Li Jia couldn't help it, twisted his face and reprimanded: "What's missing! It's me who has been holding back. Don't talk too much."

Asong smiled heartily and rubbed Li's back.After a couple has lived together for a long time, a woman will understand every thought of her husband.Li Jia almost never reprimanded others, he would reprimand openly, I am afraid that there is only Asong in this world... In fact, this is the real trust.

Asong silently waited for Li's family to drink the soup.She understood that if she spoke before Lijia took the first sip of medicine, it would affect her husband's mood.But if he didn't open his mouth after taking the first sip, Li's family would blame her for being ruthless.A Song has already figured out Li Jia's petty temper.

"How does the young master feel? He must be very happy."

"Yeah. Today I was pestering me desperately, and I asked why I didn't see him for five days in a row."

"It's too naughty, how can I keep pestering you like that?"

"nonsense!"

"what?"

"What are you talking about! I am not the only one who is entangled with the child, and Ieyasu is the same. Children just like to entangle people."

"You're blaming me again." Ah Sung said angrily, and Xuan asked nonchalantly, "Is the date of moving to Osaka settled?"

"It's decided, the first day of the first month... I made it."

"New Year? That's great, it's really gratifying!"

"What's there to celebrate? You women like to say nice things. You're still saying things like that at your age?"

"When you are older, you are not considered a woman?"

"Don't mess around. I said at the time that although the war in North Korea was extremely difficult, it was finally over, and we decided to move on New Year's Day. However, Zuofu said that he would wait for the Zhibu to come back before making a decision, and I made a decision in a fit of anger. Come down - Zhibu is nothing, why should he wait for him!"

"Ah? Why do you say that?"

"Hmph! Originally, Zuo Fu didn't like Zhibu, but now he seems to be afraid of Zhibu. This guy, Zhibu, sends envoys from Bodo every day, claiming to only report to me... really can't let people know for a moment. Take it easy, this ambitious guy."

"Is this not good? Why did His Highness say such a thing?"

"What's so good? On the day His Royal Highness passed away, he said he wanted to hide it from the world, but he came here in the dark, saying that he only told me about it."

"Don't you resent him for doing this?"

"What do you know! He said he only told me one person, but in fact he went to Ieyasu again and said the same thing. I only found out after talking with Zuofu. Ha, this kind of trick... I, Maeda Toshiie If you have never seen a big wind and a big wave, you will not see the danger in it?"

"The Zhibu actually used such a trick." A Song seemed quite surprised, but then asked: "But why did the Zhibu do this?"

"Why do you want to do this?" Maeda Toshiie couldn't help but sneer: "According to Taiko's will, I am Hideyori's guardian, and the Zuofu is acting as the administrative affairs. is the heaviest.

Then, Ah Song, think about it, if I work together with Zuo Fu to overcome difficulties, will the five elders be able to unite as one?If the five elders are united as one, how much say will the five adherents have?

Let me just put it this way, even if His Royal Highness can make the other four executives act according to his wishes, how can he surpass the five elders to control the world's major events?With his temperament, can he think of a way to provoke me to oppose the Zuo Fu, and then wait for the opportunity to exercise great power?
It's a joke, of course he can't sit idly by - when the Taige was still there, he used these little tricks to grab power, now that the Taige is gone, he still regards these little tricks as the right way, but he doesn't know the truth that the tricks are not as good as the law, and the law is not as good as the way . "

Ah Song let out an "oh", half-understood and said: "So that's how it is."

"A Song, please remember, there are no young or old on the road to Huangquan... I will never let the children be deceived by his little tricks. When Zhibu comes back, I will give him a good lesson! To prevent him from being in such a dangerous place now Under the current situation, he did some dangerous things.”

After speaking, Li Jia closed his eyes lightly, and muttered in his mouth, "Is it three thousand or five thousand?"

"What did His Highness say three thousand five thousand?"

"I mean, after moving to Osaka, I should be assigned to Toshinaga to protect the young master. I was entrusted by the Taiko on his deathbed, and I have a heavy responsibility. There must be no mistakes in this matter."

Asong fell silent.When Li Jia was thinking about big things, she never disturbed her.At this time, Ah Song deeply missed their past happiness.

The husband was impatient when he was young, but he was kind, and he never played tricks.In Asong's view, this is not because he is conservative, nor is it purely out of loyalty to the lord, but because he is pure in nature and never worries about gains and losses at critical moments.As he grew older, he became more simple and persistent, and eventually became an upright and stable elder, admired by all parties.

In the past, as a close minister of the right government (the right government here refers to Oda Nobunaga), the Toshi family was also famous for being brutal and brutal, but now, almost all the people who worked with him in the same account are not alive, and even the prince who took over the world The pavilion also died.Recently, he lamented the shortness of life from time to time, and lamented that he shouldered the important task of assisting the ignorant toddler Xiu Lai, so he had to carefully consider the right and wrong.

Of course the son-in-law, Li Chang, is going to be placed in Osaka, so what about Li Zheng and Li Chang?Asong was thinking of this, but Li's family said again: "Asong, isn't Lichang too young?"

At this time, Lijia's voice was no longer as harsh as before, and became extremely weak. His voice was full of worry: "I've thought about it, but I'm always worried. Lichang doesn't have to worry, but..."

"Yes." Madam nodded vigorously, but she was thinking about other things - how can I make my husband feel at ease?
Ah Song felt that her husband didn't need to be so worried at all, as long as he kept the way he was before.The couple never made a big mistake, and that's why today's Maeda Dai Nayan and today's Maeda couple are born.And in Asong's view, no matter how painstakingly and carefully arranged Toshika is, Hideyori is nothing more than a six-year-old child who neither knows how to distinguish the virtuous from the foolish, nor does he understand any responsibilities...

"It seems that we still have to give Li Chang 5000 troops. In case something happens, we can resist it for a while before people loyal to the young master come to rescue."

"Of course." Madam echoed again, changing the subject intentionally or unintentionally, "But don't worry too much about the young master, I think you sometimes care too much about responsibility. In fact, even if you are the guardian, you may not be able to fully understand the future of the young master. keep it……"

"What do you mean?"
