A tour of Japan's Warring States Period

"Please uncle teach me!"

Yamauchi Taro moved slightly away from Heita and bowed respectfully.

Koheita hurriedly went up to help the child. It was the duty of the monarch and his ministers. Although he was asking for advice, it was also Koheita's responsibility. This shows that Yamauchi Taro respects his teachers and respects the teachings.

The accompanying attendants brought curtains, matzas and even cold snacks, but this was the heavily populated Kai Basin and there was no shortage of people, so there was no need for camping. As long as you find a local house, you can sit down.

It's hard to say about other places in Yamanashi County. The land near Kofu has been washed three times by the Yamauchi family. Not to mention traitors and traitors, they don't even have a thorn in their head. Recently, many military personnel from the mountain have been brought in.

In the house in front of me, as soon as I took off my hat, the face of Koheita, who was famous in the Eastern Kingdom, changed drastically. When Taro Yamauchi came out from behind, there was nothing I didn't recognize.

I was so confused that I didn't know how to say goodbye. Finally, I knelt on the ground with a plop and muttered something like "Greetings to Your Highness!", "Damn it, little one!".

At this glance, it seemed that it was rarely seen on the market, so it frightened him, and made Xiao Pingtai feel embarrassed. He hurriedly asked people to get up and ordered them to boil tea and water and cook rice for cooking.

There are not many people in this family. In addition to the head of the household, there is also a young man, a daughter, his wife and two family members. The male host was a little panicked, but the hostess was a good hospitality person and acted very appropriately.

Leaving aside his husband, he welcomed Xiao Pingtai and his party into the main room, and then ordered his family to bring clean hand towels and water to wipe everyone's faces and hands. Everyone sat down and settled down before going to work in the kitchen.

At this time, his male master also calmed down and asked clearly that it had only been a year since the military service family moved from Nanyechi Township in Ina County. However, due to this relocation, the Miao character of Heishi was inherited, which is the name of this village and is listed for public viewing.

After sitting for a while, everyone finally had a rest, and Xiaoheita started talking with Yamauchi Taro.

"His Highness will definitely ascend to the throne and rule the world in the future. The shogunate is weak and needs to be invigorated! Has Your Highness ever thought about it for himself?"

"Zen Master once told me that in order to educate and care for the people, do not worship Buddhism and do not promote unrighteousness!" Yamauchi Taro replied solemnly.

It is a fact that everyone knows that the Muromachi shogunate is now an empty shell. Once Taro Yamauchi becomes king, he must revitalize the shogunate and assert his power. This is a realistic task before us, and there is no harm in thinking it through early.

As senior intellectuals, it was normal for Kuaichuan Shaoxi and Yamauchi Taro to preach enlightenment and educate the people. This is a cliché that Confucians often say to kings, and is not unusual. But as a monk, he actually told Yamauchi Taro not to believe in Buddhism and Shintoism. This was really "killing relatives for the sake of justice."

Xiaoping didn't know the principle of Liao Yi's abolition. This suggestion is very pertinent. The subsequent "Don't Promote Unrighteousness" was even more far-sighted. It was indeed far-sighted to advise Yamauchi Taro not to do evil in the future.

"What the master said is very good!" Xiao Pingtai really agreed.

"Yes." Yamauchi Taro nodded like a young adult.

"But the shogunate must have the power of the princes before it can command the world! This is my first policy, to expand the territory of heaven!"

"The heavenly territory is expanding?"

From the moment it was established, the Muromachi Shogunate was not a truly unified and powerful royal power. This shogunate is basically a union of daimyo and support of the leader.

After that, the power of the shogunate inevitably went downhill with the passing of wise kings like Ashikaga Takauji and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and now it is really like a caged bird.

If you want to have the right to speak in such a feudal country and strengthen your waist, you have to rely on the guy in your hand to speak!

Now everyone in the entire Eastern Kingdom knows that the 13th Division of Yamauchi Banner Royal Court has 6,000 cavalry on standby. They are the most elite and the most powerful soldiers in the world!

How did these six thousand standing troops come from?

It's not just that the backing mountain dominates the sea route and is raised from a territory of more than 300,000 yuan!

If a general wants to strengthen his waist, he must have a central army that can fight. Moreover, this army must have more people than the second and third daimyo in the world combined, and it must be able to fight!

Then there must be corresponding territory to support this army, which means that the army's heavenly territory must be expanded to a point where the second and third largest families in the world combined cannot compare!

"If the monarch's power is upheld, the second strategy can be implemented and the law will be clearly established!"

"Wu family's laws?"

"All the laws of the public, the imperial, and the imperial family, all the laws of the Wu family, all the laws of the temples! All of them are indispensable!" Xiaoping Tai said loudly.

Strict laws and regulations are the most important basis for the governance of a country. Looking forward, the Imagawa clan formulated the "Imagawa Clan Kana Directory", the Takeda clan formulated the "Koshu Law Order", the Rokkaku clan's "Rokkaku Shiki", etc.

The famous Warring States daimyo basically formulated national laws to be implemented within their own territories, and made reference to old legal provisions such as the Gosei and Kaishiki. It is of great significance to implement the will of the daimyo and to assert the monarch's power.

At a large level, this is called cultivating the rule of law, but at a small level, you can also have laws to follow!

"The shogunate's laws should indeed be revised to make them stricter!" Taro Yamauchi just nodded, and Matsushita Torasatsu on the side seemed to have thought of something and showed great approval.

"Husong has some enlightenment?" Xiaopingtai was also happy to inspire these children.

"Ming Dynasty! With the authority of the king!" Matsushita Husong answered loudly.

"That's right! All laws and regulations are the will of the king!"

To establish the supremacy of monarchy in the secular world, some people hope to use the illusory power of God to strengthen the legitimacy of their monarchy. This has been proven to do more harm than good!

Written laws have everlasting vitality!

Several children, big and small, sat next to Xiao Pingtai and listened attentively. These children have received the best education in the country, and none of them are talented. How can they not understand the importance of what Xiao Pingtai said.

From now on, Taro Yamauchi will rely on the children around him to govern the country!

"If we understand the law and ethics, we should take care of people's livelihood. The third policy is to listen to public opinions!"

The Yamauchi family has been conducting general "people" elections for a long time. Although this election model is limited to the election of the organizers of the Yamauchi National Central Bank (Yamauchi Bank), it has gradually spread to "people" in various countries on the Kaidou. Some kind of seeds are planted among people above this level, and they gradually sprout!

Ideas from the broad masses of the people should not be limited to the small banking industry. As representatives of the people, the head of the Yamauchi clan should summon these electors and listen to their voices.

It’s up to you whether you want to do this or not, but you must have a channel to communicate directly with the people to ensure that the monarch has the most intuitive understanding of the grassroots level of the country.
