Nagasaki pursued a fixed number of two people, one in the prefecture and one in the country, and this year it was the turn of Akira Oya to be in the prefecture Edo. On this day, Oya was messing around in Edo Castle, and suddenly received numerous invitations to banquets, but he politely declined them one by one on the grounds that he had already arranged for tonight.

Since Nagasaki Feishu secretly reported that the former flag Motohori Naohide returned from overseas, Oya has been a little troubled - not that he is worried about Naohide, but he feels that although this Nagasaki government is a fat poor, overseas trade can be up and down, but there are also a lot of bad things, from time to time there are Nanban ships breaking into Nagasaki to ask for trade, although the two years have stopped a lot, but the United States whaling ships appear from time to time in the Fuso waters, and they have to deal with it after the wreck, and they have the opportunity to transfer to other military service as soon as possible.

Today, however, he was in a good mood, for the ship of the Nagasaki Office had entered the harbor today, and his men had secretly told him that the gifts had been delivered to his home, and his wife was very satisfied. Tomorrow's wind will blow tomorrow, and today is good.

When I got home, as expected, I had been waiting for Koguri Tadashun for a long time. Although it is Ido Kakuhiro who is on duty in Nagasaki this year, things can't be separated from his Oya Akito, no matter how beautiful they are in Nagasaki, but the benefit is still to keep a copy for himself, otherwise, hum.

Oya saw the gift list before meeting Oguri.,After the two greeted, they gradually got to the point.,Oguri wants to know the direction of the wind in the center through him.,Oya Akikei also wants to know the details of this matter.,So as not to be accidentally pitted by Ido and others.。

At present, there are five people in the old middle school assessment, with Abe Masahiro as the chief, Toda Tadawen, Makino Tadasa, Matsudaira Noroshi, Matsudaira Tadayu and others are all promoted after the former old middle chief Mizuno began to lose power, and two of the five are close to the domain, which is also a rare sight in recent years.

The Oguri family is also a big flag, and it is deeply rooted in Edo, and there are some things that he can find out by himself, and it doesn't hurt to tell him some news, so why be a villain in vain.

The matter of Hori's return from overseas is relatively simple, on the surface, it is "lost overseas due to shipwreck, and now he is returning", and the accompanying rice ship also clearly admitted that it was only to help deliver goods, and there was no request to open the port for trade, and the nature of the matter was very clear, so Nagasaki and Metsuke sent a ship to Edo to send a letter as soon as possible, telling the bigwigs that it was no big deal, but the news was still blocked from the people, claiming that it was a normal Tang cargo ship entering the port.

Originally, this matter was very simple to deal with, "those who go to sea die, and those who return to the country die", but because Hori Naohide is the shogunate's flag book, and de jure is a samurai directly under the public square, so how to deal with it must be decided by the shogun himself.

The old middle school and the big eye pay, the eye pay are not impressed, after receiving the letter, several eyes pay the same opinion, let Hori Naohide cut the belly to apologize, but the letter with the details of the goods caused a shock, Nagasaki said "the goods are dazzling, the value is huge, and the inventory is still being estimated", the bigwigs suddenly became interested - the shogunate has always had the custom of fines to offset crimes, so that the well-informed Nagasaki pursued, and the eyes said that it was worth a huge amount of dollars, how could this also be worth ten thousand taels of gold?

In the past, those who returned from overseas were some sailors and businessmen, and they had always been beheaded, but this time it was Qiben and money, which was a bit interesting and worth pondering. But in private, the tone of the bigwigs has not changed, and they still say that the ancestral family law cannot be violated, but they will wait for Nagasaki to report the details and then ask the public to make this person a canonical punishment.

Oguri breathed a sigh of relief after listening to Oya's words, his father Tadaka has been very alienated from himself in recent years, resulting in poor information. During the day, he presented official documents and handed over goods, and secretly found Mr. Egawa Tanan, but Mr. Tanan was a Kanto Ginmi Officer, and the information he got was not as accurate and detailed as that of the Nagasaki Mansion, which was in charge of the house.

After the disappearance of Naohide Hori in a shipwreck, Oguri went to the book

For the Hori family, this matter has long been turned over by the eyes, so Oya has long sharpened his knife and is ready to take advantage of Xiao Li.

Xiao Li is also interested in this house, and the gift of exquisite Mexican silver coins alone was given three thousand, and a number of other valuable gifts, Mrs. is taking the maid to enjoy the play, and also asked herself to help if she can, the woman's hair is long and short, this gift is the same as eating, that is enough, and it depends on the old man's means.

Oguri looked at the big house and his eyes flashed with golden light, and he knew that this smiling guy didn't hold back his fart, but Oguri was confident, and he felt that Naoxiu's credit and goods this time were enough to save himself.

Oguri first presented Naohide's "Western Style Storytelling", and the big house was amazed to see it, and there were a lot of secrets in it, which was really eye-opening.

What is the secret of Naoxiu's "Western Style Storytelling"?

The first secret is the old story of the birch during the cultural years. In the first year of culture (1804), Fuso and Lucia began to clash frequently in Huatai, and it was not until the tenth year of culture (1813) that a peace agreement was finally reached. At that time, the shogunate suffered a great loss, and took back the jurisdiction of Ezo and Kata from the Matsumae domain, and mobilized 6,000 feudal soldiers of Aizu Hoshina (Matsudaira) Rongzhong and Sendai Date Shumune to defend Ezo and the southern part of Kata, during which the army and civilians suffered heavy casualties, but for some reason, the fierce Rucia suddenly proposed peace, and the doubts were not solved until today.

It turned out that in the ninth year of Culture, the French Emperor Napoleon led an expedition of 570,000 troops of the Twelve Powers Alliance to Lucia, and Lucia lost one after another in the joint battle, and even the capital Moscow was lost. It was a good fight, a good fight, but it was a pity that Lucia was actually born in the Jedi later, which is a pity.

"Why didn't Lan Guo Commercial Hall report this?" When Oya saw this, he suddenly asked Oguri Tadashun.

"The country of Sri Lanka was also destroyed by France, and the island is its overseas island, and the transportation information is inconvenient." Xiao Chestnut said, "You haven't studied the books I sent back to Edo in the past two years, what are you usually busy with?"

Oya also read that in the 11th year of Tenpo (1840), the overlord of Europa, England, united with France to suppress Lucia, and signed the "Treaty of London", forbidding Lucia's warships to go west, he couldn't help laughing, the so-called long-distance friendship and close attack, the more enemies of neighboring Lucia, the better.

Then he read about the Battle of Mimo in recent years, the gold rush in California, the Pan-Slavism rebellion in the Balkans, the swarming of Europa, the British allowing civilian ships to sail directly to China, etc., Oya let out all kinds of exclamations while reading, shaking his head and gloating, while Oguri was anxious on the side, the night was dark, when could he start talking about the topic!

"Oguriden, these are not enough." I don't know how long it took, but the big house suddenly stabbed Xiao Li - you have to make a thick book to get friends.

"There are also a number of new Western-style large barrels, a number of iron cannons, and a number of tools, which will be of great benefit to my shogunate."

"It's still not enough."

"The cargo carried by the two ships is preliminarily estimated to be worth more than 100,000 taels."

"It's not enough, if you want to live, it's enough, if you want to be rewarded, it's not."

"Please give me advice", Oguri's spirit was shocked, after all, he was young, he didn't know much about the cardinal of the shogunate, and his father refused to help, and Mr. Egawa Tanan was not a clever person, so the way he thought of it was to make a difference with merit - although his eyes gradually opened, and he was quite dismissive of "those who go to sea die, and those who return to the country die", but he was very touched by the stubbornness of the shogunate, from birth to the present, he must talk about loyalty and righteousness, and he also has an estimate of the difficulties.

"The major affairs of the country are in worship and worship. Only fame should not be given lightly. Hori Naohide planned to save himself with militaristic heavy weapons and overseas storytelling, which is also clever; Kokuri Hall can say that he can move the people of Nagasaki, pretending to be Tang people to come to the ship, which can be regarded as cautious. Gao Ming is okay, but if he is not cautious, Naohide Hori will definitely die. ”

Oguri felt that Akira Oya was a bully, and he had seen a lot of them in Nagasaki in the past few years, and he unconsciously looked a little strange.

Oya saw that Oguri didn't believe it, and he told a reason, which scared Oguri into a cold sweat.

In his opinion, the greatest use of "those who go to sea die, and those who return to Japan die" is to prevent the foreign daimyo of Kyushu Island and the western country from growing their strength through overseas trade, and he doesn't care about the founding of the country, and the ancestral family law is just an excuse for everyone to fight each other, and if the shogunate can control overseas trade, then the founding of the country is not impossible.

However, the shogunate's roots were in the Kanto Hachishu, Tokaido, and Kinai, and the daimyo of Kyushu and the western province had geographical advantages, so when there was no perfect solution, they were determined to ban the sea, and there was no excuse or excuse left. Therefore, if Naohide Hori comes back with great fanfare, then the shogunate has only one decision, there is no mercy for killing!

But Oguri's manipulation, although it can't be said to be leaky, but in general, when he was in Edo Castle in the afternoon, he carefully read the official document presented by Oguri, Hori Naohide brought back a lot of militaristic heavy weapons, as long as there is a little reason, the shogunate will not kill him - after all, in the past two years, the Nanban ships have been knocking on the harbor, and the Lankoku Merchant House has been unwilling to provide new Western weapons under the pretext of expanding trade, and now the Western ships and cannons have become the heart disease of the shogunate, and it is definitely a great credit for Hori Naohide to bring back books, tools and samples.

But this credit will never go to Naohide Hori - after all, Flagmoto's disregard for the ban is a black spot that can't be washed away, so this credit can't be shared by my big house. Although Ido Kakuhiro is on duty in Nagasaki this year, as long as he can make this matter come to fruition, you will not be blind, and you will definitely be able to see that my selflessness and preservation of human resources will greatly benefit your future.

But if you get in the way, good things become bad things, the old people are like torches, and they can't escape justice, but they hate themselves in the house this year, and they can only watch the credit being taken away by Ido Juehong - Speaking of which, Ido is also a person who understands, and cooperates with Oguri to block the news, and the attitude is also clearly reflected in the official document, there are too many treacherous people, and it is not easy to be an official.

Oya explained the important points to Oguri, especially reminding Oguri not to do much, biting "Naohide Hori was shipwrecked overseas, and now he is returning", this is the best policy to retreat, Oguri also nodded again and again, after all, counting Oguri, there are already four people who told him so.

Ido pursued、Metsuke-sama said so,Naohide also told Matsumae Taro to tell himself,"If Oguri-kun speaks up for Naohide,Then Naohide's life and death are unknown,If Oguri stands by and watches,Naohide has a chance to make a living", in fact, these truths Oguri himself understands, but not as thoroughly as Akikei Oya said today, secretly engaged, simple and clear, that is, a flag of the shipwreck returned, cherished the homeland, broke the family and asked for guilt, for the sake of the militaristic weapons and so many goods, as long as it is not known to outsiders, how can the shogunate let Naohide a horse.

Oguri is very grateful to Oya Mingjing, and promises that he will not take any of the benefits this time, and transfer all of them to Oya, and he will do his best if Oya-sama tells him in the future.

Oya sent Oguri away, looked at Oguri's back and sighed, "The afterlife is terrifying", he didn't believe a word of Oguri's loyal words.
