Edo Traveler

The situation is such a situation, Kanosuke is still young, and the three over there don't look like they are going to die violently. This matter can still be well planned. In the end, it will depend on the future development of the situation.

"Don't make it public." Although he knew that Chuemon was not a leaker, the Tokugawa family ordered it deliberately.

It is really a matter of great importance. If the lord of the feudal family has nothing to do, the shogunate is thinking about inheriting the family business of the other family. If it is anyone else, there will be a rift in their hearts. Therefore, the Tokugawa family must be loyal to the guards and keep silent, you know and I know.

After that, the Tokugawa family will quietly summon them again, have a private chat with them, get in touch, and finally decide. Moreover, this matter is not something that the two brothers can discuss privately. The elder Jingyi Zhibi also needs to know about it, and finally comes forward and announces it publicly to the princes.

Whether it is the Kuroda clan in Fukuoka, the Asano clan in Hiroshima, or the Nihonmatsu Danwa clan, these are all standard external names. If the shogunate wants to put children into these families as heirs, it may cause doubts among the foreign princes, and they will communicate well afterward to eliminate the adverse effects.

"My brother understands." Chuyouemon looked at Kanosuke, who was a small one, and nodded.

Right now, the Tokugawa family has obviously not made a final decision, and is just starting to find a home for Kanosuke. But since the words were spoken, Chuemon should take it seriously and think carefully about the pros and cons of these three.

"By the way, I heard from Atsuhime that Aiko is also pregnant?"

"It's only two or three months, so I can't count." Chuemon said yes.

Miyano Aiko has been in the door for a long time, and she was found pregnant not long ago. But the time is still short, and whether it can be successfully preserved is still unknown. In later generations, some pregnant women have been four or five months old, and they have not been able to keep it in the end. It's really not until the last minute, it's completely impossible to say.

Even at the last moment, whether the production can go smoothly depends on luck. Just like Kanosuke's mother, Ami, because she was too weak to give birth naturally, she almost had an accident. She had to rely on the caesarean section of Yutaro, the doctor of Lan's doctor, to make the mother and child safe.

In the days when there was no caesarean section, it was extremely common for mothers to lose their strength at the end of the birth, or postpartum infection, which led to death. Two or three months of pregnancy or something, don't take it too seriously.

"It would be great if I got another man." Tokugawa Jiading touched Shimaru's little head.

Because he himself is infertile and has no children, naturally, he regards these nieces and nieces as his own. In the feudal family world, there is a special emphasis on the inheritance of the blood of men. It is not surprising that such words come out of his mouth.

Besides, you have also seen that if Chuemon had ten or eight sons now, the Tokugawa family would still hesitate and say "I want them all!". Anyway, you can't give birth, so instead of hugging the sons of other princes, it's better to hug the son of my Tokugawa family, to improve the relationship with the shogunate, and to borrow money from the shogunate and not pay it back.

Look at Matsudaira Qixuan, since he served as the lord of Akashi, the debts that Akashi owed to the shogunate, at least 100,000, were forgiven. How hard is it to earn 100,000 taels? He scratched three feet in the Akashi Domain, and he might not earn 100,000 taels a year.

It's strange that Zhongemon is not good enough and can't give birth.

"The Marquis of Kagoshima has already sent a few suitable people to serve." The current Marquis of Kagoshima is naturally Shimadzu's definition, and Shimadzu Tadao changed his name to Lieutenant General Ohsumi.

Speaking of which, if Aiko gave birth to a son, there would be no problem at all if this son was sent to the Fukuoka Domain as the heir. Because the current feudal lord Kuroda Nagapu was born of Shimadzu, and Aiko was also born of Shimadzu.

It means that the male bloodline belongs to the Tokugawa family, and the maternal bloodline belongs to the Shimadzu family. Both sides like it, and both sides welcome it. It's a pity that I don't know if Aiko will be able to give birth to a boy in the future.

Mrs. Atsushi and Shimadzu taught them that they hoped to give birth to a male child. A Tokugawa male who has some relationship with the Shimadzu family is what they are happy to see.

"Be more careful. If there is a shortage of people to help, let Atsushi send a few." Tokugawa also knew that he couldn't force it, but he always had hope.

"After May or June, when the fetal image was stable, it was reported to the Imperial Palace."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm tired today, take Shiwan and the others out of the city." The Tokugawa family had also seen the children, and things were said, and it was getting late, so this is the end of the day.

Come on, Chuemon will retire with a group of children. In summer, it is said that it is getting late. In fact, it is still bright. At most, the sun is about to set, and the road will not be so hot.

After retreating from the castle, Chuemon rode on his horse and began to consider the pros and cons of the three feudal kingdoms. The first thing to rule out was Erben Songfan, not because Erben Songfan had only 100,700 stone, but because of foresight.

Combining the current knowledge and the historical situation, there was no large-scale movement to respect the king and expel the barbarians in Ou and Ou at the end of the Tokugawa period. UU reading www.uukanshu. com even finally formed the Oyu Yuehan Alliance to resist the new government army

policy. During this period, the tragic attack and defense of Aizuwakamatsu Castle took place.

In the end, all the teenagers of the White Tigers committed suicide, and in later generations, they were still praised by others. Quite a bit of a tragic hero, and even shot a number of film and television works.

The Tokugawa clan cannot guarantee that Ou's Uesugi clan, Date clan, and Satake clan, who were not so good at dealing with the shogunate in those days, would eventually fall into the arms of the fallout, but Chuemon knew that these princes Although he may not be a whole-hearted samurai, he is not the one who falls behind.

It is probably a neutral side of the shogunate, so there is no need to set up strict defenses, and they are guarded by the Nihonmatsu Domain.

Of course, if there are many Chuemon's sons, and just want to find a safe place to give them a healthy growth and a place to spend their days leisurely, then Nihon Matsuhan is the best choice. When the time comes, let the shogunate seal tens of thousands of stone to increase the income in the domain, then the days of the rich and noble marquis are just around the corner.

But this is not because the world is almost full of turmoil, chaos will arise everywhere, and it is impossible to be at ease.

If you want to choose, you still have to choose from Fukuoka and Hiroshima. These two are not only powerful domains with more than 400,000 stone, but also rely on the two major rebels in history, the Changshu domain and the Satsuma domain.

For the sake of foresight, Chuemon also hopes that the shogunate will strengthen its strength in this area and ensure that in the future unexpected events, it will create a time and space for the shogunate to turn around.

Even through the direct reform of the two feudal domains, the flames of chaos can be directly extinguished when necessary, saving the trouble of the shogunate.
