Yingzi is quick with his hands and feet, with the help of Zhixiu, the pots and dishes will soon be cleaned up, and Naoxiu is beautiful in his heart, it seems that the wedding is a "fate" not a "match" - which also calls the wedding "match", which scared the dog to death.

In the past two days, the situation has changed, the little couple has no time to get together, Yingzi hugged a stomach full of grievances, the two held hands and talked under the oil lamp, at first Zhixiu told and then Yingzi said, different lives slowly merged into one, and the hazy light reflected the face full of longing.

Early in the morning of the 23rd, Naoxiu sorted out the gifts with the help of Yingzi and asked the two students to run to the letter that should be sent and the gift that should be given. Nakajima Saburosuke of the Uraga Office, Matsumae Taro of the Nagasaki Metoke Office, Sakuma of the Zoyama Academy, Hideno of Kaneiji Temple, Shusuke Kondo, the old man of the Edo Sandoba and the Tentator Hall, Kijiro of Uraga Ryotei, Kanta Shigeya and Zenchi Che, etc., asked two students to pay New Year's greetings on behalf of these people, and told them that "Naohide will definitely come to visit me in the future, and I have been busy with business recently, so I ask for your forgiveness."

Naohide first ran to Mr. Egawa Tanan's Edo Mansion, only to be told that Mr. Tanan had not returned from Nirayama. Speaking of which, Mr. Tanan has spent much longer in Edo in the past two years than in Izu.

In the sixth year of Tenpo (1835), 35-year-old Egawa Hideryu took over as the head of the family. The Egawa family, which originated from the Yamato Genji Egawa stream, was a prominent family that continued from the Kamakura period (1185-1333) and was still prominent in the Edo period.

After Egawa came out, in addition to Izu, he also led Sagami, Kai and other Shikoku Heavenly Leaders Acting Officials, and he was quite prominent for a while. In 1837, there was a riot in Kai and the "Great Shio Heihachiro Yu Party", and in the same year, the United States Morrison broke into Uraga in Sagami Province and demanded that trade be repelled by artillery.

However, there was no way to walk by the river without getting his shoes wet, and the change in the choice of shogun led to a political turmoil, which soon spread to Egawa Taro Saemon.

In April of the 8th year of Tenpo (1837), Tokugawa Iekei was inaugurated as the 12th shogun, and the previous shogun, Iesai, retired as the Great Imperial Palace, and Iekei's teacher, Mizuno Tadakuni, began to take power, and in 1839, Mizuno became the chief elder and began to carry out the last Tenpo reform of the Tenpo period.

As a famous orchid scholar, Egawa Taro Saemon was naturally a supporter of shogunate reform, and the chief elder Nakamizuno appreciated him quite a lot, and he didn't think about moving Egawa. But if you don't shoot, it's not a good thing, I'm afraid that there will be no good people, Torii Yaozo is Mizuno's henchman, he is the son of Lin Shuzhai, the head of the university, he believes in Confucianism, he is very disgusted with orchidology, and he is not pleasing to the eye of the famous orchid scholar Jiang Chuan.

Originally, although torii and Egawa didn't like each other, they couldn't find a chance to fight because of their different positions. However, in December of the 9th year of Tenpo (1838), the shogunate ordered Torii and Egawa to jointly survey the coast near Edo and strengthen the vigilance in order to prevent Nanban ships from invading the coast of Fuso. In the course of his work, torii and egawa are constantly in turmoil.

First of all, Egawa found a group of orchid scholars from the "Shangya Society" as assistants, and then the torii to find faults, when he inspected the overseas Izu Shichishima, the Shangya Society Watanabe Huashan recommended two orchid scholars to accompany him, but the torii was not allowed, and Egawa Hideryu, who had a good personal relationship with Watanabe Huashan, bypassed him and directly asked the old Nakamino Tadakuni for instructions, and it was approved, and the contradiction between Torii and Egawa became public.

In the tenth year of Tenpo (1839), after the end of the joint mission, Torii and Egawa respectively submitted a work report to the old Nakamino Tadakuni, who was a Confucian scholar who knew what to measure and fort "Odaiba", not to mention the large barrel and iron cannon, the report was written in a mess, and the old Naka Mizuno publicly fully affirmed Egawa's report, and Torii sent someone to falsely accuse Ran Scholar of going to Izu Shichishima overseas in order to collude with the Southern Barbarians.

As a result, the "Barbarian Society (Western-style Party) Prison" incident occurred, and the shogunate found many dissatisfied words against the shogunate in Watanabe Huashan's private notes, so a large prison was raised, and as a result, more than 20 people, including Watanabe Huashan and Takano Nagaei, were arrested, and Koseki Sanei committed suicide "in fear of crime".

Burdened by the prison of the Barbarian Society, Egawa, who was responsible for "negligence", was deprived of his official position as the acting official of the Five Kingdoms, and in the end he was left with only the hereditary acting official of Izu Nirayama. The Egawa family is a famous family that has been inherited for more than 600 years, and the roots are deep, and this setback is nothing. In the 12th year of Tenpo (1841), he learned Western artillery and military system from Takashima Akiho, and in the 13th year of Tenpo (1842), Takashima was arrested by Torii Yoshizo and others for "secretly accumulating party members and plotting against him".

His private school was named Egawa Juku, also known as the Rope Martial Arts, and until the end of the Edo period, the Rope Martial Arts Hall trained nearly 1,000 students, among which the more famous ones are Sakuma Zoyama, Hashimoto Saunai, Kido Takayoshi, Nakamura Heimitsu, Oyama Iwa, Otori Keisuke, Ito Yuhiro, Honshima Fujio and others.

Naohide was able to apprentice with Mr. Tanan before, in addition to the reason why his neighbor Nakamura Shochi was a distant relative of Mr. Tanan, it was also related to the fact that Egawa Juku recruited Langaku students.

This year, Torii Yaozao was dismissed, and Mr. Tanan was happy, but he was also enthusiastic about his career, no, on the 23rd day of the wax month, he was still working on official duties in Nirayama - Naohide wailed in his heart, "Teacher, you have completely reversed, you have to be close to the nobles in Edo to get promoted and rich, and it is completely uncommon and futile to rely on hard work." ”

Naohide didn't know when Mr. Tanan would return to Edo, and he didn't dare to ask, so he had to go to the house of another teacher, Ito Genpu, to visit. Mrs. Ito, the mother, is also very strong.,Resolutely not to go back to the countryside of Saga.,Take the child to live a very nourishing life in Edo.,Naohide honestly explained what the teacher did in Saga.,Present a family letter.,As a result, the wife said that a few days ago, the ship of the Saga domain had sent a new family letter.,Naohide had to confess.。

On the 24th day of the wax month, Mr. Tanan still did not return to Edo, and Naohide ran again in vain. He had to go to meet Shengyibang, at this time Shengyibang was still studying Lanxue in the private school of Yongjing Qingya, at the age of twenty-one, he was still idle at home, and he achieved nothing, Shengyibang was wine-lustful, and the Shengjia family's foundation was now running out. A large judgment is worth ten small judgments, which is quite valuable, and this was originally a thank you gift that Naohide was going to give to Mr. Tan'an - Naohide felt that his promotion might be due to Mr. Tan'an's promotion of agricultural science skills, but it was too exaggerated to be promoted to Qiben.

"Thanks to the teachings, after that, Naoxiu has learned a lot, and I have recently gained something, so I come to thank you", the nonsense is good, dopamine can save the world.

The effect of burning the cold stove is very good, and Katsuyibang is very enthusiastic about Naoxiu, regardless of Qiben's reserve, he is very enthusiastic and welcomes Naohide to come and socialize often. "I understand~", Naohide smiled mysteriously, this person who can marry his sister to a teacher, is definitely a good hand at pulling relationships - of course, Sakuma is suave and suave, and it is also a good marriage.

Naohide didn't dare to run blindly, and bought a few more gifts at Fusang Bridge - this was to prepare for going to Oguri's mansion, and then went home to carefully consider tomorrow's rhetoric.

Bai was blind, and as soon as he arrived at Oguri's mansion on the 25th, Naohide told the bottom of the matter like a bean before he asked Oguri Tadashun.

It turned out that Izu had a bumper harvest this year, and Izu was mountainous and poor, and the stone height was only 70,000 koku, which was the result of the emphasis that the Daikan Egawa family had attached to agriculture for generations. Relying on the gold fertilizer technology of "Hori-style agriculture", especially the winter manure, coupled with the improvement of rice and fish farming, the cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes, and the promotion of wheelbarrows, this year Izu was able to enjoy good weather and rain, and the stone height reached more than 80,000 koku, an increase of one and a half percent, and the report of the agency office caused a sensation when it was sent to Edo Castle. Don't underestimate one and a half, in the Edo period, which was dominated by agriculture, as long as the output was not reduced, it was a good thing, and it was not easy to increase the output by one and a half to be commended.

During the Edo period, agriculture was well developed, and gold fertilizer was widely used, and Edo was full of vendors who collected gold fertilizer, and each family could sell it for one or two pennies every day. The Egawa family has been promoting agriculture for generations, and gold fertilizer has long been widely used in Izu.

At most, gold fertilizer can increase the yield by two percent of the harvest, but these two percent of the harvest is theoretical, and there is a lot of talk in practice. In addition to the fact that there is no thermometer that causes the temperature to be uncontrollable, the book describes the three methods of flatland, semi-pit and underground manure in detail, and how to make fertilizer and fertilize according to the different conditions such as the season. Especially in winter, it is not easy to explain this clearly at this point in time.

In addition, a large amount of straw can be added to high-temperature manure, which increases the total amount of fertilizer, and the ammonia water in the soil is a miracle.

In addition, the wheelbarrow saves labor, and changes the direction to increase manpower input, rice and fish farming is also a complete set of new technologies, after two years of trying, this year to vigorously promote. Acting official Taro Egawa Saemon kept a close eye on it, and sweet potatoes and potatoes were also promoted in the mountainous Izu, which led to an increase in income by one and a half.

The shogunate is very troubled this year, the number of Nanban ships intruding into the sea has increased, and the personnel turmoil brought about by the "return of the king" of the shogunate's chief old man Nakamino Tadakuni, has caused all kinds of rumors to fly all over the government and the opposition, and the report of the Izu commission has given a great opportunity to divert attention, plus the compensation psychology of the Egawa family, the shogunate decided to praise it - Torii Yaozashi has fallen, so how can he say to his opponent Egawa Taro Saemon that the art of balance will never go out of style!

Taking advantage of this shareholder wind, the request for credit to Naoxiu in the Jiangchuan report also passed smoothly. And because the famous agricultural scholars Sato Nobubuchi who are still alive, Daizo Eitsune, Ninomiya Sontoku and others are all civilian scholars, the shogunate saw that Naohide was a royal family, what happened to the imperial family, and the lower-level samurai were also samurai of the shogunate, and their own family members were proper, don't bounty it, it's too vulgar, I heard that he is still a disciple of Jiang Chuan, and Jiang Chuan's official is too big to be promoted, so it's good to promote Naohide, and mention the royal family genealogy from the second half.

Yes, the shogunate didn't want to promote Naohide to Qiben at first, how can the noble status of Qiben be given to people who are not famous, and the royal family genealogy is a great kindness. But I didn't expect the report to be handed over to several old middle school evaluation meetings, and there were twists and turns - the Egawa family is not without enemies, although Torii Yaozo has fallen, but the faction is still there, and he has been arguing for this trivial matter for a long time, and the chief old Mizuno Tadashi rarely cares about specific matters after his reinstatement, and finally Abe Ise Mamoru said, "Nishimaru-like has been very good recently."

All of you here are well-informed - those who are not well-informed cannot be old schools. Abe mentioned that the Nishimaru-like imperial body was very safe, and everyone complained in their hearts, "It's still Abe Ise Shou Ling, this Hori Naohide is the Hori Naohide who showed the prince the wealth and disease, hmm~, Egawa has grown a lot recently, and he knows that digging pits hurts people." ”

Since this person has cured the prince's wealth and noble disease, the risk of opposing his promotion is not small.

The prince is twenty-one this year, and the imperial palace is fifty-two this year, so maybe the leader will change that day - in this era when the average life expectancy is forty years old, this matter must be guarded against.

Moreover, the body of Jiaqing, the general of the twelfth generation of Zhengyi, is not as good as that of his father Jiaqi, Jiaqi lived sixty-eight years old, which can be described as a long life, and Jiaqi has a good body, many sons, twenty-eight sons and twenty-seven daughters, and Jiaqing of this generation has only one son of Jiaxiang who lives to adulthood, how to think about it, hmm~, you must take precautions.

As soon as he reacted, the old middle school who opposed the promotion of Zhixiu just now immediately proposed to reward Zhixing with thirty stones, and then all passed, as for Naoxiu is not a famous family, it is a small thing, the shogunate has always been meritocracy, as long as there is merit, he will not hesitate to promote!

Oguri Tadashun is only seventeen years old this year, talking about these gossip things, his eyebrows are dancing, and he can't see that he is usually a very stereotypical person, of course, Naoxiu is also a flag book, although the stone is a little less, but everyone is a flag book, and a little identity difference is also an internal matter, speaking of which, Naohide should also understand the internal flowers and plants.

As for why the person who issued the edict was Oguri and not the usual performer, this is for the same reason that the shogunate did not send someone to teach Naohide etiquette.

Nobody Naoxiu was promoted to a noble flag, and many people who know it must ask "why, why", if it is because of the merits in agriculture, then some people ask "how much merit, isn't it fragrant on behalf of the royal family tree?" "I can't explain that this kid has treated Nishimaru-like diseases, so when you say it, things are even more lively, what kind of disease does the son of the world have? Talking about the family affairs of the Imperial Palace, there is nothing to do. And because of the cure, he was promoted to a flag book, and there was also a bit of a rush where family affairs were greater than shogunate affairs.

Besides, there are quite a few guys in the Gao family and the big body flag book, if you are entangled in "Zhixiu is not a famous family", you have to get the identity of your "meritorious" youngest son, isn't it nothing to do.

The old middle school are all experienced, a total, quickly communicate with the general's secretary "side employment", "It's such a thing, let's deal with this canonization simply, find someone to do it", the side employment is the general's private minister, as soon as he heard it, "That's it", turned around and asked, "Who knows this Hori Naohide", Oguri Tadashun didn't know why, and said, "I know", and as a result, this task fell to him.

Oguri is inexplicably wonderful, and the side employer is afraid that he will make a mistake - and he expects Oguri to tell the lucky kid not to make a big noise, so he told Oguri the cause and effect, and Oguri was immediately stunned, anyway, the hot potato was handed over, and the side employer left with a smile.

That's the way it is, Naoxiu was promoted to the flag, and it can only be said that you can pick up dog shit to eat when you walk on the road - it's lucky.
