In mid-July 1854, Mimefu Hori Toshiki left from the white lord, but he never expected that in the second half of the month, Hakodate Hotoku Takeuchi came to visit again - it turned out that Hori Toshiki had not received the news from the Hokkaido patrol in the Northland, and his dream of pursuing Hakodate had been shattered, and the shogunate had officially established Hakodate in the sixth month of the calendar, and Takeuchi Hotoku came by ship.

It stands to reason that dealing with Takeuchi is much simpler than dealing with Hori Rishi, although this is a fresh and hot Hakodate commissioner, legally higher than the status of the Mimetsu, but it is also a distant country, and he has no jurisdiction over Naohide, unlike Hori Rixi, who can supervise the affairs of the white lord as the imperial eye.

Besides, Takeuchi Hode is the Hakodate Practice, and the Naohide is the White Lord's Practice, and the two of them do not violate the river water, even if they help each other in the future, it is a bit taboo to have too close a relationship in private.

But Takeuchi was sick on the boat, and he didn't know if it was seasickness or a problem with his diet, anyway, it took three days for Lord Bai to get better, and he was a guest from afar, and Naohide had to let the medical officer take care of him, and he himself went to visit twice in the morning and evening.

There is no special medicine these days, and the high fever caused by cold and flu can be fatal if it does not go away, not to mention Takeuchi's vomiting and diarrhea, which looked very serious at the time.

Fortunately, Takeuchi's physical foundation is very good, and the medical skills of Chief Medical Officer Bai are very high, so he basically recovered in three days - I can't say that he is cured, but there is really nothing wrong with his physical weakness, and it doesn't hurt to walk around on his own.

Takeuchi Baode is very grateful to Naohide, and at the same time, Naohide has to cut his love for the doctor who treated him - because after this toss, Takeuchi can no longer trust his own Chinese doctor.

Although it is very rude to watch other people's retainers in these years, nothing is as important as a small life, and besides, both of them are pursued by the shogunate in the distant country of the Northland, and they will depend on each other in the future, and Takeuchi's move may not be without temptation.

Naohide also thought of this, and after coming back to discuss with the doctor himself, he didn't cut his love in the end, but this doctor will go to the box house with Takeuchi Hotoku to open a medical center.

Takeuchi Baode was very surprised by this, because he may have promised a lot of conditions before, but the medical officer was not tempted, so he rashly opened his mouth to Naohide, but he didn't expect to succeed, but since this medical officer wants to go to the Hakokan to sit in the museum to practice medicine, then he can be regarded as having a guarantee, so it's okay.

Naoxiu looked at the other party as if he was a little concerned, so he had to explain further, "This is a disciple of Mr. Ito Xuanpu, and I have the same friendship, and I am used to being at ease in the white master. ”

"No wonder the medical skills are so clever, it turned out to be the personal inheritance of the imperial doctor, Meng Lang, Zhixiu Hall is not strange." Hearing this reason, Takeuchi Baode smiled, it turned out to be a heel, and it was rare that Naohide was willing to give face and let him go to the box hall to open a medical center, which was really not looking down on himself.

The status of doctors in the people is very high, after all, how can people not get sick, they always ask to go to the door, but in the eyes of shogunate ministers like Takeuchi, the status of doctors is like that, it must be higher than that of servants, but it is not much higher, so Naohide refused to cut off Takeuchi at the beginning was a little blamed, Hakodate and the white lord watched and helped each other, so don't you give face for such a trivial matter.

But I heard that it was a disciple of Ito Xuanpu, Takeuchi Baode didn't dare to think so, Ito Xuanpu is now the imperial doctor of the public family, and it depends on the owner to beat the dog, and it is really not a matter to give away the imperial doctor's disciples at will - in the sixth year of Jiaei (1853), after the death of the great imperial office Tokugawa Iekei's illness suddenly worsened, the chief Abe attendant of the old middle school severely punished the Oku medical officer, and by the way, appointed the shogunate's first Lan doctor imperial doctor Ito Xuanpu, which shocked a lot after it spread, so Takeuchi also heard about it.

The same thing, different results can be seen from different angles, originally the medical officer may not know how to lift, but with the signboard of the imperial doctor disciple, Naoxiu is to do things appropriately to give Takeuchi Baode face.

But that's not the case at all:

This doctor's name is Saburo Kusahara, and it is true that Mr. Ito Genpo is a disciple, but the fundamental reason why he is reluctant to follow Hakodate to go with Takeuchi

It's the white lord's medical officer, which is different from other places!

Not to mention that the white master's medical hall can get a lot of money every year, and its status is also very high, and the owner of the museum belongs to an important position that can participate in governance.

In 1851, after arriving at the White Lord, he worshipped Mr. Miyama as a teacher, and as an old qualification, he was willing to work hard, and he was already a retainer of the Hori family who took the big handle as gold every year, and was expected to take over as the owner of the White Master Medical Museum within this year, of course, he was unwilling to follow Takeuchi.

At this time, Takeuchi Hotoku's illness was almost cured, and he didn't dare to delay much in the white master, so he said goodbye to Naohide and went straight to Hakodate to take office.

In this regard, Naoxiu specially prepared a rich Cheng Yi, and also sent the white master pill to guide the way, and the matter was over, but as soon as Takeuchi left, the white lord convened an internal evaluation meeting:

It's going to be okay, because something big is happening in Edo again!

The reason why Takeuchi Hotoku went straight from Edo to the white lord was because the guide was the envoy of the White Lord's office, Fanzawa Village Sonojo - the shogunate sailors who escorted Takeuchi were not familiar with the route of the Northland, and although Matsumae Takahiro, the head of the Matsumae family at that time, was in Edo to confess, but the retainers who were familiar with the route were taken away by Mimefu Hori Toshiki first, so Takeuchi Hotoku had to find the Hori family, and it happened that Sawamura Sonoki handed over the fur in Edo, so Sonoshi became the guide.

During the voyage, Takeuchi Hotoku vomited and diarrhea and looked like he was about to die, and he couldn't trust the doctor of the Matsumae family, so he took Takeuchi directly to the white master.

When Takeuchi was treated, Sonoki had already reported the news to Naohide, because the stakes were so important that the town council of the important branch should be convened to discuss together, so the general assessment meeting was postponed until this time.

However, when the meeting was held, everyone felt awkward - Naohide had already decided to wash the white, and naturally Egawa Youngmin, who was the executive of the white lord, also participated, although he was Mr. Tanan's own son, but everyone still regarded him as an outsider, and the atmosphere was very strange for a while.

But Yingmin himself is also uncomfortable, the rules of this white lord are very weird, it stands to reason that Nao-su and him have the highest status, they should sit on the top, and then kneel on both sides below, but now everyone is sitting on chairs around the long table, what is going on, this scene seems to be familiar.

Nao-su doesn't care if Yingmin is awkward, it's important to get down to business, and when everyone arrives, he will announce the start of the evaluation meeting.

Although the official document has been sent, Sawamura Sunojo still briefly introduces the major events that happened in Edo:

First, the chief Abe attendant of the old middle school resigned from the previous table.

The Miren Black Ship Admiral left Shimoda Port on June 28 in the Western calendar, after which there was a violent turmoil in Edo - the chief Abe attendant of the old middle resigned immediately after the black ship left, "Since Honghua, the foolish ministers who served as the first class of the shogunate have broken the national law to conclude the "Fuso Mi Country Peace Agreement", which is the fault of neglecting coastal defense on weekdays. I hereby excuse my resignation. ”

After that, the old middle Makino and Wakanian Endo also asked for resignation in the name of "negligence".

The reason for this is rumored to be the oppression of the old lord of Mito, the Saisho family, and other important ministers.

However, Abe's attendants did not leave their posts in the end, and it is said that they were relieved and retained by the princess.

The second major event was that the shogunate issued 37 decrees in a big way, which was the large-scale work of the old Naka Abe-sama who remained in office.

The main contents are:

Fuso unanimously said that the Kyoto Imperial Court, the Edo Shogunate, and the daimyo in various places should work together to deal with the invasion of the Western Empire;

The Matsumae Domain's territory in the Hakodate area was recovered and Hakodate was established.

The dissolution of the trade association "Zhu Zhongma" to curb the rise in prices and allow free trade among the feudal domains;

encourage the reclamation of swamps and wastelands, and reward the establishment of Western industries;

Abolish offerings, abolish false ceremonies, promote frugality, and straighten out finances;

strengthen coastal defense, reform the military situation, and learn Western skills;

enhance the collection of information on Western countries;

Broaden the way of speech, break the rules and use talents.

After Sonojo finished speaking, the audience was in a sensation, and everyone talked about it, and it seemed that Edo was going to move really this time.

Naohide added that these 37 decrees have all been formed into official documents, and the Hakodate commissioner Takeuchi Hotoku who had just left has already passed it on to him, and it is indeed true.

The white lord is Lanxue's base camp in the north, and everyone expressed their opinions after listening to the eyebrows, but Zhixiu said that now is a notice meeting, and everyone will hand over the Jianbai book in two days, and then discuss how the white lord should act.

After the meeting ended, only Youngmin was sullen, and Nao-su had been paying attention to his reaction, so he deliberately left him behind and asked what was wrong?

"Where chaos is born, words are ordered. If the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, if he is not secret, he will lose his body, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed. It is a gentleman's prudence and not out. ”

When Nao-su heard this, Yingmin blamed himself for his misbehavior, and felt that such a major matter should not be discussed by everyone, at least he should discuss it with him before acting.

Speaking of which, Eitoshi Egawa is the white lord who arrived on May 6 this year, and it's been almost three months now, but he doesn't have any real power, and as Mr. Tan'an's own son, it's really a bit unreasonable to not let go of his power.

But this can't be blamed on Naoxiu:

Yingmin was depressed as soon as he came, playing in the mountains and rivers, fishing and hunting, and didn't care about anything, and then the black boat arrived at the box house, and he ran to see the excitement again, and only returned to the white lord on June 18, when he had already led people north to Miaotun to attack the Lucians.

After he came back, Mimefu Hori Toshihi and Hakodate Takeuchi Hotoku visited one after another, but they didn't let Youngmin take charge of anything practical until now.

However, Yingmin is the official appointment of the shogunate as the white lord of the annex, theoretically he can meddle in all affairs at will, and he put him in play, and Yingmin has only expressed dissatisfaction until now, which is to give himself a big face, and it is not okay to appease him well.

But what can Yingmin do?

There are too many secrets of the white master, although it is said to be whitewashed, but don't you have to wait for at least two or three years, Naoxiu really doesn't want to pull the son of the teacher Mr. Tan'an into the water.

"Brother Yingmin, Zhixiu's independent assertion has become a habit, and it is indeed reckless, please give me more advice in the future", Zhixiu said that Zhixiu was going to give Jiangchuan Yingmin a seat on the soil.

Where can Yingmin really let Zhixiu kneel down and give a salute, it will be this meaning, he hurriedly stopped it, but he was really dissatisfied for a long time, "The two families are in the same breath, what do you mean by the old tucking?" Therefore, if Naoxiu doesn't come up with the charter today, he really can't give up.

Naoxiu didn't reply when he saw Youngmin, this is a promise from others, and he was forced to be helpless, so he had to test it first, how much did Oguri Tadashun and Mr. Tanan have with Youngmin:

"A few years ago, the white master created a lot of forbidden things, and now he is covering it up in every possible way, but the paper can't contain the fire, lest it affect Brother Yingmin."

Speaking of which, Naoxiu and Xianheng are doing secret trade, and Mr. Oguri and Mr. Tanan are well aware, but they have never broken it; As for hiding weapons and taking the initiative to attack the Lusians, only Oguri Tadashun knew about this, and I don't know if he told Mr. Tan'an, and as for Youngmin, Naohide is even more unclear.

Egawa Youngtoshi went to the white lord to be merged, in fact, Naohide was really confused, Oguri Tadashun and Mr. Tanan wrote a letter, but the letter only said that Naohide should take care of Youngmin, nothing else, what does this mean? Naoxiu really hasn't figured it out.

Anyway, today's words are here, so take the opportunity to take Yingmin's words and see how much he knows?

You must know that Mr. Jiang Chuan's heart is big, and he dares to let his son wade into troubled waters; If he only knew about secret trade, then he would still find a way to let Ying Min be safe and sound for a year and a half, and then let him leave the land of right and wrong as soon as possible, which can be regarded as a little reward for his teacher.
