Chapter 489 Erluer's salary, granted by the king

When Satomi Yoshiyasu revealed the identity of Ashikaga Yorijun, the entire banquet hall fell into a strange silence, even more obvious than the effect caused by his sentence "abolishing the public party" just now.

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Ashikaga Yorichun was not only not afraid but a little excited, he took the initiative to take two steps forward and bowed to Xiujia and said, "I have met the right general, and I am the current Kamakura government, Ashikaga Yori who temporarily lives in the home. pure."

He originally thought that after he reported himself as his family, the Xiu family would sweep the couch for his Gao Jiage, at least he would welcome him along the way.

Who would have thought that he had announced his family for a long time, but the Xiu family who was sitting in the main seat still did not make the slightest move.

The sudden appearance of Ashikaga Yorisum and Hideo's indifferent attitude attracted the attention of the Kanto samurai in the hall, and they all looked at Hideo and Ashikaga Jihime, wanting to see how he would deal with Ashikaga Yorisumi.

Needless to say, Ashikaga Jiji is just a 15-year-old girl. Although he realizes that something is wrong, he doesn't know how to take the initiative for himself.

Her family's old Noda Hirotomo wanted to argue, but all the people present were powerful and famous, how could he, a well-known retainer with hundreds of thousands of years, have the right to speak?

Seeing that Ashikaga Jihime did not give a rebuttal, everyone turned their attention to Hideo, wanting to see how he would take over Ashikaga Raijun.

The Xiu family said slowly in front of everyone: "It's because I have little knowledge. I only know that there is only one shogun and one Kamakura government in charge of Kanto. Who is this little Gongfang?"

Ashikaga Laichun was not annoyed either, he stepped forward and explained to Hideka, "I am also the Kamakura gongfang, but my ancestors once lived in Shizuo Koumijo Castle, so the world only calls me Koumi gongfang."

But before he finished speaking, the Xiu family said again, "That's even more wrong. I only heard that the Kamakura government moved to Furukawa, but I never heard of the small bow being stationed."

After finishing speaking, the Hide family turned to look at their new retainer Ota Suzumasa and asked, "Minomori, you are an old man from the Kanto region. Tell me about the lineage of the empress of the Kamakura Prince Jiji clan?"

Ota Sumitomo was originally a retainer of the Furukawa family, and now the Xiu family asked himself about the Furukawa family, and naturally cooperated and said, "After the Chishiden, the Chengshiden will be in power, and the Uesugi of the shogunate will be in charge of the Kanto, and they will move to Furukawa. The city created a precedent for Guhe Gongfang.

Later, it was said that it was located in Gogijeon, Gogijeon was said to be located in Qingshijeon, and Qingshijeon abdicated to Yishijeon.In the 4th year of Yonglu (1561), Lord Kenshin, the governor of the Kanto region, changed the hall of Fujishi to Gongfangyang, and then it was still located in Yoshishiyang, as evidenced by shogunate documents.

In the 11th year of Tianzheng (1583), the palace of Yishi died, and it was said that he was located in Wang Wanyang of Umechidai, but he died young, and His Royal Highness Shiji acted on his behalf. "

Mr. Ota is against the Hojo faction, and he is very displeased with Ashikaga Yoshishi, who Hojo supported, but Ashikaga Fuji is dead, and Ashikaga Yoshishi is the last Furukawa government recognized by the Muromachi shogunate.

In addition, now he can also see that Xiujia clearly wants to stand with Ashikaga Ujihime, so he, as a retainer, naturally wants to speak for Ujihime.

After hearing Ota Zimasa's introduction, Hideka made an expression of sudden understanding, but then asked, "Then, have you ever heard of Mr. Xiao Gongfang?"

"I'm dissatisfied with the lord, I've heard about it." Ota Zizheng admitted that he had heard of Koumi, and he didn't make Ashikaga Raijun much happy, so he said, "It should be said that Koumi was a monk who had no inheritance rights and had become a monk. The monk was founded under the control of the power minister Zhenli Gu.

Kongran's usurping the throne did stir up the Kanto situation for a period of time, but in the 7th year of Tianwen (1538), after the first Guofu-Taiwan war, it was already conquered. "

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at Ashikaga Laijun and Satomi Yoshiyasu and continued, "Satoshi family should know the so-called little Kazumi Toshiya, but they confirmed the news to the world at the beginning. Now 50 years have passed, I don't know why this Lai Chunyang suddenly popped up again."

Ota Susuma's words made Ashikaga Yorisum's complexion change drastically, because Ota's words were tantamount to accusing Kokazu Ashikaga of being illegal from the beginning of its establishment.

He opened his mouth to argue, "My little Kazuki Toshi has been confirmed by Yoshinori, so how could he be the usurper's family that you talk about."

"The Yoshisumi you mentioned are His Highness Ashikaga Yoshisumi, Lord Awa?" Hideka asked curiously when he heard his mention of this name, and said in a convincing tone after getting a confirmed answer, "This No wonder~"

Koumi Gongfang is a Gongfang family created under the ambition of Mariya Nobukiyoshi, and it is not recognized by the orthodoxy. Although Na Ashikaga Yoshisumi has become a general, he was embraced by Hosokawa Masato after the Onin Rebellion Li's puppet general was later beaten to remote Apo by Fei Li.

Here, the Xiu family used "no wonder" to define the identity of Mr. Gongfang, which meant that they did not recognize its legitimacy, and even ridiculed their background.

It would be understandable for the daimyos present to say that they don’t know much about medieval history, but the major events since the Onin Rebellion are still familiar to everyone.

Now Xiujia suddenly compares Ashikaga Yoshisumi with Ashikaga Yoshisumi, and they all understand what Xiujia means, and they cooperate to ridicule Ashikaga Raijun.

At the same time, Masaki Kajihara, the second son of Ota Sukomasa, said, "Back then, the Maritani family found monk Kongran from Tsuruoka Hachimangu Wakamiya, and supported him to disrupt the situation in Kanto.

I don't know which temple His Highness Satomi Yoshiyasu found this so-called His Highness Ashikaga Yoshiyasu today? "

"Hahaha~" Masaki Kajihara's words directly ignited the joy in the hall. Everyone was already dissatisfied with Yoshiyasu Satomi, but now Hideka took the lead in mocking them, so naturally they flocked to him.

Satomi Yoshiyasu was young and young, so he couldn't stand such an insult, and was about to step forward to argue but was stopped by Motoetsu Okamoto.

After saluting to the Xiu family, Okamoto Motoyue said neither humble nor overbearing, "We have come here at the invitation of His Highness Guanbai to attack the rebellious minister Hojo together. It is said that we are guests. Is this the way of the Guanbai family's hospitality?" ?”

When Xiujia heard the question from the other side, she immediately sat upright, leaned forward and asked, "Satoshi is indeed a guest, but you don't need to give me such a big gift, how do you ask me to accept it?"

"His Royal Highness Lai Chun is not for you. If you can't take care of it, we will continue to take care of it. Anyway, Xiaogong City is in our hands now."

Satomi Yoshiyasu interrupted suddenly and blocked Okamoto Mototsu's words. He looked at his lord again and frowned deeply. Just as he was about to explain to Hideo, he heard Hideo from the palace Already opened his mouth: "Fake the high family background, establish the name of the Ashikaga family, you guys are so brave!"

Hearing that Hideka said that Ashikaga Yoshiyasu's identity is fake, Satomi Yoshiyasu was very dissatisfied, and refuted in the hall: "Who told you that His Highness Laijun's Ashikaga family's identity is fake! He is an upright Yoshiyasu." After enlightenment, he is the grandson of the Zheng family!"

Little did he know that it was his words that Xiujia was waiting for, and he immediately said to the daimyo present: "Just now, all the adults here have heard what Satomi-sama said, and Satomi-sama personally admitted that the boss is Ashikaga Yoshiaki after."

Speaking of this, Xiujia got up from his previous position, walked towards the three of them and said, "After 50 years of hiding in Ashikaga, your family has played a big game of chess! If I didn't come up with my own words today, your family would How long are you going to hide His Highness Guan Bai?

Now that the world is at peace, and it is not possible to check whether he is Ashikaga, even if it is true, does it mean that my Toyotomi family does not even have the capacity for this single person?Or do you mean that you have a plan for Satomi's collar? "

Hearing that the Xiu family was going to put the hat of treason on his head, Satomi Yikang knew he couldn't stand it no matter how upright he was.

Under Okamoto Motoyue's signal, the three of them knelt down facing the Xiu family, and Okamoto Motoyue explained, "Your Highness misunderstood, and His Highness Lai Chun was indeed under the protection of my Satomi, but there was no I want to hide what His Highness Guan Bai said. This trip to Odawara is just to hand over His Highness Lai Chun to His Highness Guan Bai."

Hideka heard Okamoto Mototsu's answer, looked at Ashikaga Laijun coldly and asked, "Is that so, Lai Jundian?"

Ashikaga Raijun is over 60 years old, and he was sweating because he was scared by an 18-year-old boy today.Hearing Xiu's inquiry, he nodded repeatedly and said, "It's like this."

Hearing Ashikaga Laijun's admission, the Hide family calmed down a little, walked back to their place and said to them: "Even so, Mr. Laichun should let me check it first. After the identity is confirmed, I will It will be handed over to His Highness Guan Bai. You shouldn’t have any dissatisfaction, right?”

Under the strong coercion of the Xiu family, the three dared not say a word, and accepted the arrangement of the Xiu family on the spot.

The purpose of Xiujia to suppress Ashikaga Laijun here is very simple, that is to force him to give up Ashikaga's identity.

As long as he accepts Hideyoshi's arrangement and denies his identity in front of Hideyoshi, then Hideyoshi may as well give him 3/5000 Shi Zhixing for retirement, but if he stubbornly wants to hold on to the word "Ashikaga", I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get there. In front of Hideyoshi.

The purpose of Hideka's doing this is to prevent the Ashikaga princess from being forced to marry the Ashikaga Kingdom Dynasty in history, so that the two families would merge and hold the card of Ashikaga princess firmly in their own hands.

The second is to determine the history of the Kokazu Ashikaga family at the time of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, thereby strengthening the legitimacy of the identity of the Ashikaga family Hime Kamakura.

The three of them thought that agreeing to the Xiu family's request and sitting down according to his arrangement was a huge concession, and the Xiu family should be kind to them no matter what.

Who knew that the Xiu family would post again after drinking for three rounds, "I remember what the lord said just now, that Xiaogong City is under your control? That's not right ~ how do I remember that Xiaogong is in the lower chief instead of the upper chief?"

After the banquet, Okamoto Motoetsu and Satomi Yoshiyasu whispered for a while, obviously winning the right to speak to the outside world, so this time he responded on his behalf, "I will wait for His Highness Guanbai to crusade against Hojo." call, launch a raid on the Hojo Clan and its affiliated castles along the way, Xiaobow City was captured under such circumstances."

After hearing this, Hideka retorted, "I was ordered to attack Kanto including Ueno, Musashi, Sobo, Shimono, and Hitachi.

Everyone present here, such as Satake, Yuki, and other masters, have sent letters to me to be included in my actions, but I don’t remember that I have you as my assistant?
According to my inquiries with Osamu Ishida, your family was asked to cross the sea to go to Sagami to join the battle directly. "

Okamoto Mototsu replied, "Your Highness, I don't know. Since the second Kofutai defeat, my Boso navy has been suppressed by the Hojo clan's Sagami navy. After the war, most of the warships were taken away. Now it is in a state of depression. used.

His Highness Guan Bai didn't know the inside story, and wanted me to cross the sea and go directly to Sagami, but in front of Sagami water, we still chose the relatively safe way of land. "

He thought his explanation was okay, but who would have thought that the Hideo family still chased after him and said, "Nonsense! On November 11, Kitanosho's attendants led Kuki Shimamoru and others to repel the Sagami navy." , and blocked the waters of Sagami and Musashi.

Even if you are a small boat, you can go to sea calmly, so why do you say it is difficult to cross?I think you are home because the sea is difficult, so it is true to take the opportunity to attack Zongzhou? "

Hearing Hideo's straightforward exposure of Satomi's thoughts, even the good-tempered Motoetsu Okamoto was very dissatisfied, and he responded coldly, "These lands were originally promised to us by His Highness Guanbai. What's wrong with us getting it ourselves?"

Who would like Hideka to retort on the above, "Second Lieutenant Masuda (Nagamori Masuda) promised you that he could give you some knowledge after the war, but His Highness Guan Bai didn't promise to give them to you first.

After His Royal Highness Kanbai's order to do nothing, the world's famous names must abide by it. We will attack Hojo from Ueno, Hitachi, Shimono and other places, and act strictly according to His Highness Guanbai's orders.

In your family, you saw that you mobilized troops without getting your name. Did you violate the order of "nothing to do?" "

The Xiu family's refutation was actually speaking for the princes of the Kanto region. After all, the tasks of the upper and lower generals were originally assigned to them and the Xiu family.

As a result, in the end, apart from helping Osafune Sadakin in Shimososeki and other places, they also cooperated with Ishida Mitsunari to dig the dam in Kawagoe Castle. As a result, the war seemed to be over without taking any credit.

The Xiu family's questioning was a big sigh of relief for them.

But the Satomi family is an independent daimyo after all, the Hide family has no right to dispose of the Satomi family, and they still have to stay on the front line if they scold him.

So the Xiu family planned to put an end to this questioning, only to hear him say, "I didn't deliberately make things difficult for you, it's really hard to hide it at this time, His Highness Guan Bai will know sooner or later.

As the subordinates of His Royal Highness Guan Bai, you have already thought about the countermeasures.

Remember: Erluer salary is granted by the emperor; if the emperor does not grant it, the ministers cannot compete. "

After finishing this sentence, Hideya showed an appearance of being overwhelmed by alcohol, and asked Nobushige Sanada and others to help him go down, and said from time to time, "Speechless after drinking, please don't blame me when I see you." kind of discourse.

However, all of the Xiu family was pretending, and the Xiu family who was helped to the back became sober, listening to the movement from the front all the time.

After the Hide family left, Osafune Sadauka was in charge, coordinating with Hidemasa Hori and other Toyo ministers Yu Satake, Utsunomiya and other daimyos to enliven the atmosphere, but Yoshiyasu Satomi was under the control of the Hide family. Everyone was isolated.

In the middle of the night, Hideya was suddenly woken up, and Nobushige Sanada reported to Hideka, "The Satomi family's army retreated to the general direction overnight."

A smile appeared on the corner of Xiujia's mouth when he heard the news, which was exactly what Xiujia wanted.

To say that seeing Yikang here is still too young, he couldn't help being a little excited, and ran away angrily when he was provoked by Xiu's family, but he lost completely in this way.

With this run, he completely confirmed Satomie's disobedience to Hideyoshi's order, and Hideka also had an excuse to attack him.

The Xiu family is not afraid of Satomi Yoshiyasu talking nonsense in front of Hideyoshi after being arrested. Today's banquet is a private banquet, and the guests are all daimyo, accompanied by important ministers.

The Xiu family didn't believe that any daimyo would do something to offend the Xiu family for the sake of a dying person.

Hideka didn't care about Satomi Yoshiyasu's departure, but asked Sanada Nobushige: "Did that Ashikaga Yoshiyasu follow?"

After getting a negative answer, Xiujia felt at ease, and fell asleep again after knowing Sanada Nobushige.
