Chapter 47: Blessings and Misfortunes (I)

It takes time to set things up commercially, and during this time, the tie will have to worry about how to eliminate the political negative impact of the matter.

The lord of the dignified and equal punishment department, of course, there is no shortage of people who can make good decisions. But none of these people were given the order to summon, but Yan Chiyomaru, who happened to be in the army, was called to the city to discuss.

Obviously, no one can expect these teenage children to say any wise words, outsiders think that this may indicate that Tieshou Fan Xiu has already had a basic belly case, just take this opportunity to take a little test.

The main pill of Shinkiyama Castle was blatantly blown up by Matsunaga Xiu, and it was difficult to recover for a while, and the office location could only be temporarily arranged in the longhouse of Ninomaru.

Although the father and son were both in the army, they rarely had time to talk. After all, as the general of the army, he has a lot of opportunities and a lot of responsibility; Yan Chiyomaru has not yet been served, and he can't help share his worries, so he accompanies his sister Yukichiyo, surrounded by miscellaneous servants and servants.

In fact, this kid was brought out of the state city with his fiancΓ©e, nominally just to visit the prospective in-laws of Ishiyama Honganji Temple. However, after the incident, the "Prospective Young Lady" was escorted back to the house, and the eldest young master followed him to Kyoto and saw the world.

The family's residence is next door, and a call will come immediately.

As soon as he ordered the attendant to call someone, it took about two minutes for him to report that he had arrived.

Then, accompanied by the sound of brisk footsteps, Chiyomaru was well-dressed, his eyes did not squint, his waist was straight, he walked in with a careful attitude, bowed down, and after receiving permission, sat calmly and neatly on the side.

Obviously, it was impossible for him to predict when he would receive the summons, and it was impossible for him to organize his appearance in advance. So he must always pay attention to his external image, and he is not messing around like a naughty child.

Of course, the bear doll that likes to mess around may not be successful, for example, a well-known demon king has achieved more achievements than a hundred honest "children next door". However, as a parent, I always feel that it is too much of a sword and not the right way.

If there is a lonely case in someone else's family, it can be cited as a beautiful talk, and it is your own flesh and blood...... It's better to be normal.

"Ah......h

After the new year passed, he gradually became more and more able to appreciate the feeling of "seeing his son more and more pleasing to the eye", but in person, there was no intimacy in his eyes, he just replied casually as a greeting, and then asked in a slightly stern tone: "Anyway, I sent someone to inform you yesterday about the destruction of the Anzhai fleet by Takeda spies." Do you have any thoughts on this? ”

"Yes." Hearing this question, Yan Chiyomaru leaned slightly, lowered his head, and his shoulders trembled slightly-it seemed that he was still a little afraid and nervous in the face of his parents' examinations.

In his eyes, he didn't see it, and waited patiently.

After a while, Yan Chiyomaru raised his head and said, "Father! I have roughly read through the records and information about this matter, and the outline of the matter will not be controversial, but there are still many suspicious details, and if there is any spare energy, it is still necessary to get to the bottom of it and trace it back to the source. ”

"Ha ......"

Tieshou Fanxiu replied with the same meaningless reply, there was no sadness or joy on his face, his tone was noncommittal, and he couldn't tell whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied in his tone.

Seeing this, Chiyomaru's eyebrows tightened slightly, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and after a while, he continued: "But...... Now that the enemy is present, the remaining strength of my family ...... The spare power must be limited, so ...... That one...... Maybe...... Maybe there's no need to be so wasteful. According to your teachings in the past, since it has happened, it is useless to regret it, so it is better to think about how to make amends. ”

"Hmm......"

Hearing this, Pingshou Fan Xiu tilted his head slightly, his eyes showed a cautious meaning, and interrupted: "What you said is not wrong, but it is too big and generalized. Remorse is useless, which means that for the head of the Tie family, it is not necessary to invest too much manpower and material resources to investigate the details out of impulse, because we have more important things. However, for the personnel in charge of intelligence and law and order in Izumi, the omission under their noses is a top priority, so it is necessary for me to put the right amount of pressure on them and allocate the right amount of resources to assist them. ”

"Yes! Remember, child! Yan Chiyomaru was obviously a little more nervous, but he was still very sober, not swayed by emotions, but courageous, and asked rhetorically: "But...... But excuse me, ...... exactly? How exactly should you judge...... How much pressure is 'right' and how many resources are 'right'? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You're asking very well! ”

Pingshou Fanxiu couldn't answer for a while, so he was not angry but happy, nodded and said with relief: "Being able to ask this shows that you really have your brains!" In fact, there is no definite answer to your question, and I can only estimate it by experience and imagination! Probably only sages like King Wen and Guan Zi who have penetrated people's hearts can have an accurate measure of this! Can you get the idea? ”

"I see." Yan Chiyomaru nodded solemnly, "Mr. Takenaka once said that as a person in power, the most important and difficult thing to judge is the issue of 'degree', which cannot be taught through the tongue, but can only be slowly experienced by oneself......"

"Very much."

Tie Hasuhide was a rare expression of satisfaction. But this attitude only lasted for a short moment, and he immediately turned serious and continued to ask questions: "Let's not mention this for now, as you just said, let's talk about the problem of 'how to make up for it'!" ”

Poor Yan Chiyomaru didn't have time to relax, and he tensed his nerves again.

Fortunately, he was able to answer this question:

"I used to hear Master Huzai talk about similar topics, and he said...... If there is an embarrassing scandal such as the theft of valuables or the diversion of a large number of materials in a Buddhist temple, there are generally two ways to deal with it. The first is to severely punish those directly responsible in order to demonstrate the determination to uphold discipline, and the second is to ...... Punish managers slightly, not noticeable, and then look for grassroots personnel who stick to their posts in accidents, praise them extensively, and turn bad things into good things......"

Although it was "paraphrased" in the name of others, it shows that Yan Chiyomaru is somewhat less confident in himself, but after all, it is not easy for a teenager to tell a feasible policy without stumbling.

"Hmmm......"

After thinking for a while, Pingshou Fan Xiu nodded, expressed his agreement, and then continued to ask: "Since this is the case, then in the matter in front of us, how should we choose?" ”

"This ......"

Yan Chiyomaru suddenly panicked and didn't dare to speak.

"Private Q&A, no need to be inhibited."

Tie Fan Xiu said lightly.

"Yes...... However...... This one...... If yes...... Ah, that ......"

But as soon as these words came out, Chiyomaru became more and more nervous, and he was a little incoherent.

"Alas......"

Pingshou Fan Xiu shook his head slightly, and said in a slow tone: "Let's put it this way, if you want to pull out a person worthy of praise to eliminate the bad influence, who should it be?" Conversely, if there is to be accountability, who should be the main culprit? ”

"I heard that there is an old man in Owari in this matter, called Suzuki Kobei, who is loyal to his duties and fought bravely, which greatly interfered with Takeda's spy plan, and it should be rewarded for meritorious deeds, father, you may as well focus on this person." Yan Chiyomaru answered half of the question without hesitation, but the other half couldn't: "As for accountability...... Belch...... Fear...... I'm afraid I'm ...... Since I am not participating...... I haven't seen the day-to-day government procedures, and I don't know ...... Didn't know what ...... to do."

"Heh......"

Hearing this, he stroked his beard, squinted his eyes and said, "What you say is reasonable, so let's do it...... Anyway, what is Yukichiyo's mood lately? After all, if she was asked to accept marriage suddenly, the impact would not be too small, right? There are some things that I can't ask, but your brother and sister have always had a good relationship......"

"Sister, she is a little abnormal, but the degree is very low." Speaking of this, Chiyomaru finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said calmly: "Actually, the arrangement you chose for her is not bad, when the child lived in Gifu Castle in the past, he knew a little about the heir of the Sasa family......

"That's ......"

Hirata took out a blank piece of paper from under the desk and signed a few orders in person, while listening intently to the trivial matters of the children in the family, nodding incessantly.

What Chiyomaru said is basically in line with the thoughts in his heart in advance.

As a result of the months of delay, morale among the entire army was somewhat low, and doubts inevitably arose about the determination to resist Takeda. At this time, the case of "spies sabotaging the fleet" was reported, and it was also an opportunity to clean up people's minds.

Suzuki Kobei...... It seems that there is some impression, if I am not mistaken, it should be the descendants of the old Owari pawn, and his father and ancestors have been in battle as the private soldiers of the Hirate family. Later, he was given a village and there was no one around, so he brought this guy from his hometown and used him as the head of the ashigaru group.

Think about it, the old qualifications of the same period, many of them are gradually becoming the head of the fan, preparing for the first level of generals, and even some of them are lucky, they are already powerful generals who know how to do more than a thousand stones, why does this person not seem to be too wishy-washy?

You still have to find someone to inquire, as long as there is no big problem with the quality of will, take the opportunity to promote it and be a benchmark.

Judging from this "prison robbery incident" alone, this Suzuki Kobei, at least at the level of loyalty, is very qualified, and his core qualities have withstood the test.

As for the talents in civil, military, military, and political fields, it is better if they have, and it doesn't hurt if they don't. A child from a lower-class martial arts family, as long as he is not a fool, it is always enough to be a cadre who is close to the soldiers.

Smart and agile people in the world are not scarce, and with the continuous expansion of power, talents are also a matter of course. But the roots are red, the net worth is innocent, and the loyal and reliable - at least on the surface, the loyal and reliable people are precious.
