Chapter 278: The Millennium Emperor
Kyoto Imperial Palace Fukakusa Hall
Emperor Go-Nara, dressed in a black hunting robe, was chanting Buddhist scriptures in a side room in the hall at this time.
Buddhism cultivates the afterlife, and even if he is as noble as the emperor in this life, he has to give up the extravagance of this life and look forward to the next life.
Emperor Go-Nara was the fourth emperor of the Japanese imperial family to go through a hundred generations of emperors, and this emperor was also the most miserable emperor in the history of the Yamato Dynasty.
Although the emperor lost his sole power in the early days of Kamakura, Japan was still under the dual rule of the emperor and the shogunate. In the early Muromachi period, although the emperor of the Northern Dynasty was completely away from government affairs due to the support of the Ashikaga clan, the entire imperial family and the public family still retained a large number of annual tributes from the estate, and had considerable economic power.
However, all this changed after the Onin War, and the estates of the nobles were occupied by the heads of the villages, and the Ashikaga Shogun's family, which had been in close proximity with the public family, was also declining. Even when Emperor Hou Nara succeeded to the throne, he did not have the money to hold a succession ceremony for more than ten years, and the emperor had to make a living by selling characters from time to time.
The emperor's ministers were able to use the remnants of the majesty of the court to reap the benefits of the local daimyō, but the emperor was really left to learn as a companion. After all, there is a royal face to maintain, after all, the tribute of the daimyo has long been divided among the public families in Kyoto.
Konoe and Uesugi became friends, Sanjo and Takeda married, and Takaji ran for Imagawa...... There was nothing to do with the emperor, at least the emperor who was still in office could only get some of their leftovers.
Otherwise, how can you say it in the words of neighboring Mingguo? That's right, that's called competing with the "people" for profit and losing the system of the Son of Heaven. The emperor should be a good scholar, and this is the consensus of the ministers and even the emperor since the beginning of the year.
Therefore, Emperor Nara has been looking forward to becoming emperor since the day he ascended the throne, not to mention that he learned some other secrets by chance, but how easy is it to abdicate?
"There is a lot of suffering in the world, but I hope for the next life!" Thinking of his current hardship and embarrassment, Emperor Hou Nara, who was praising the Buddha, couldn't help but sigh.
The sound of the wooden fish hitting the wooden fish sounded again after a long silence in the hall, but soon the silent sound of the wooden fish was interrupted again.
"Your Majesty, the Archmage of the Heavenly Sea of Hiei Mountain asks to see you."
"Master Tianhai!" Emperor Hou Nara was taken aback when he heard this, so he hurriedly instructed the new Guan Bai Konoe Qianjiu who came to report: "Qianjiu, go and invite the mage to come in, don't be lazy." ”
"Haha!" The guards waiting outside the palace quickly withdrew after receiving the emperor's dictation.
After a while, the monk Tianhai, who was dressed in a snow-white monk's robe, had a white beard and hair, looked a little old, but his eyes were shining, and he met Emperor Hou Nara through the bamboo curtain, but for some reason, Emperor Hou Nara retired the attendants around him early.
"Tianhai greets His Majesty the Emperor."
In the deep grass hall, the monk of Tianhai paid his respectful salute to Emperor Nara, but the emperor who showed surprise was very frightened and opened the bamboo curtain and walked to the front of Tianhai to bow down first.
"Zhiren pays a visit to my grandfather, and besides, there is no grandfather who has no need to show people in the name of Tianhai anymore."
"Zhiren!" It seems that the momentum of the Tianhai monk suddenly changed in an instant, and the old man's face also showed a look of remembrance.
It is well known to the world that Emperor Go-Nara's grandfather, Emperor Goto Gomon, was a sad emperor who resigned from the throne five times during his lifetime and died for 43 days. However, this is actually just an illusion, and the reason why Emperor Goto Gomon died young at the age of thirty-six was actually inspired by the heavenly grandson Qiongqiong Qiong to fake his death.
In the past, it was only a shadow warrior secretly searched for by Emperor Goto Gomon, and the real emperor had already sneaked into the face of Kobo Tenkai south of Mt. Hiei to walk in the world. This secret was passed down by word of mouth only among the succeeding emperors, and there was not only one emperor on Mt. Hiei. ......
"Zhiren." After a long time, the former Houtu Imperial Gate and the current Heavenly Sea recovered from his thoughts and said, "The former Emperor of the Later Earth Imperial Gate has already passed away in bliss, and now sitting in front of you is the Venerable Heavenly Sea, one of the thirty-three monks of Mt. Hiei. ”
"Grandfather!"
"Old man Tianhai." Emperor Hou Nara couldn't help but persuade him when he heard the alienation in Tianhai's words, but Tianhai had obviously come to his senses and immediately put his hands together to block him.
Later, Emperor Nara saw the solemnity of what Tianhai said, so he no longer insisted and asked: "In that case, please be rude to Nu Zhiren, I don't know what Master Tianhai ordered when he came from Mt. Hiei today?"
"So the old man said it bluntly." When Tenkai saw this, Nara inquired and said straight to the point: "The night before, the old man received the decree of Qiongqiong Pestle Zun in a dream, saying that there was an anomaly outside the sky that descended on the land of Ise. Qiongqiong Pestle Zun said that this outlier would likely affect the royal millennium plan, but fortunately, Tianzun had used his supreme power to set things right. However, this anomaly is still in the hands of the royal family after all, and the old man is here to pass on the decree of Tianzun to you. ”
"Odd!" Emperor Hou Nara didn't dare to be contemptuous when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Master, I don't know what Tianzun's will is?"
"There will be a shoshi rising in the land of Ise at the end, and Your Majesty and his successors must find a way to bring shohoshi to the emperor's side." Tianhai commanded extremely solemnly.
Emperor Hou Nara saw that Tianhai said solemnly, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he hurriedly asked: "Then who is this general?" Is it the Ise famous Kitabatake? However, this Ise Kitabatake clan is an old minister of the Southern Dynasty, and he has always refused to accept the king, and the royal family is probably a little troublesome if he wants to disturb the Kitafu. ”
"The Kitabatake clan is nothing more than dry bones in the mound." After Emperor Nara finished speaking, Tianhai interrupted him and said, "If the shohoshi comes from the Kitabatake family, it won't be so troublesome!" There are some secrets on the mountain that you may not know, but the confrontation between our Northern Dynasty and the Southern Dynasty was actually premeditated, and now there are several emperors from the Southern Dynasty on Mt. Hiei. ”
"What! How is this possible?" Emperor Nara was stunned all of a sudden, knowing that the royal family was made dominant precisely because of the dispute between the two great emperors in the north and south, which consumed too much strength. If it was for the sake of the struggle for power, Emperor Nara could still figure it out, but if it was said that the two major factions deliberately did so, it would be too ridiculous.
Tianhai saw Emperor Nara's puzzlement, but he didn't explain and said directly: "The old man knows that you have some doubts about this, but you will know the reason for this in the future." As for the matter of the emperor, he doesn't have to be too deliberate, and when he shines in the future, if not, then he doesn't need to care. ”
"Huh." Later, when Emperor Nara saw his grandfather say this, he also put away his doubts.
"How's the Sun Child Project going?" After Tianhai arranged the matter of the star, he talked about another thing.
