Rewards are rewards, and it is impossible not to punish those responsible for such a big thing.

In comparison, the former is always happy to hear about it, but the latter will inevitably offend people, and even the young man Yan Chiyomaru knows that the stakes are very important, and he doesn't dare to speak easily.

Especially the Atakata.

The rest of the people are at most a matter of work attitude, and the house of Anzhai involves the height of the position of friend and foe, after all, it is their fleet that has an accident.

Why Azhai Qingyasu suddenly broke the agreement and set off ahead of schedule, whether he was coerced and coerced, or whether he turned against the thief, this point can no longer be ascertained, and it has become an unsolved case.

All in all, there is no legality.

This also means that the leader can be characterized as he wants.

His elder brother Anzhai Xinkang is honest, knowing this, he knelt down outside the door alone and pleaded for the crime, saying that the crime deserved to die, and he had no shame to live, so he just begged not to make the family young, and let the young child inherit the family name in the future, even if he was gracious.

But the tie was very easy to spare his life.

Because, whether it is logical inference or analysis of intelligence, the final result is that it is very likely that Ataka Nobuyasu is innocent. In every respect, he did not look like a smart man who could lurk in enemy camps, though he had always wanted to be seen as wise.

On the contrary, his younger brother is Qingkang, honest and honest on the outside, but on the inside, he is smart and ambitious, and he is more like the kind of person who is easy to be coaxed and tricked.

On the other hand, how can this guy say that he is also the biological nephew of the former overlord and the "Vice King of Fusang" Miyoshi Changqing!

Being able to recruit a descendant of a hero, this is a deed that is enough for a tie to be self-conscious and relish, and it gives people a sense of accomplishment that is still above Iwacheng Youtong, and it is similar to the head of Changzong and my department.

That's why Keiji deliberately let him marry the widowed sister of the An Zhai family.

I gave birth to a big fat boy a few months ago!

Now that the two families are relatives, how can they easily move a knife and a gun?

For Ataka Nobuyasu, Hirata Honhide comforted him very much, and advised him not to have a psychological burden, and first go to Kishiwada Castle to rest and recuperate, to avoid the limelight, and the people of Awaji Country and the navy can be temporarily handed over to reliable cronies to govern on their behalf.

In order to show trust, this candidate is completely left to me to decide, and the tie does not interfere.

Moreover, the specific responsibility of Anzhai Qingkang will not continue to be pursued, and there will not be too many negative evaluations recorded in the official information.

This is to avoid hurting the face of the entire family.

Hearing this, An Zhai Xinkang immediately burst into tears, and said sadly: "Brother She, this fool, has lost tens of thousands of stones of grain, and he has been treated so kindly by the lord!" In the future, I will go up and down to the soup and fire, and I will not be able to repay your old man's kindness! ”

As a samurai with high enough status, but not enough real power, he has learned of the deliberately fabricated loss figures.

This shows that the grain speculation operation has begun secretly.

On this occasion, Pingshou Fanxiu smiled slightly, waved his big hand, showed that he didn't care, gave full play to his awe-inspiring and fearless spirit, and said angrily: "Tens of thousands of stone grains are just an estimate, and in fact there may not be so much." What's more, even if so much grain is really lost? The so-called blessing and misfortune depend on each other, otherwise after defeating the Takeda rebels on the Sanhe front in the future, these are just small twists and turns that are insignificant! ”

The demeanor of the Lord of the Criminal Department is naturally convincing.

And...... The more they emphasized that "tens of thousands of stones are just estimates, and the actual losses may not be so much", the outside world became more unwavering in their belief that the grain transportation team of the Pingshou family must have suffered great losses.

Nobuyasu Ataka is an honest man, but he only feels guilty about it - of course, he is also worried and sad about his brother's life and death.

But the other "smart people" must be able to associate more things with it.

For example, the price of food, the price of food, and the price of food......

A few days later, Nagashu Masake, Imai Kanehisa and others rushed back and forth to several places, and finally the former sent back a small note, on which was a private agreement signed by several wealthy merchants in Kai Town.

Then he put it in his arms silently and ignored it.

Instead, the planned topics were carried out as usual.

In response to the accidents that occurred in Kishiwada Castle, Kaimachi and the harbor, the final personnel handling was -

The eldest son of the Tarao family, Kota Tarao, was negligent and ineffective in patrolling the port, which caused Takeda's spies to infiltrate, so he was relieved of his current position and ordered to live in seclusion in Kishiwada Castle.

Anzhai Xinkang is the owner of the fleet, although he is not at the scene and has no direct responsibility, but there is a mistake that the emperor is not strict and does not know people, so he is sentenced to think about it behind closed doors and be cautious for three months to see the after-effects.

As the person in charge of the special arrangement to sit in the rear, Governor Konishi lacked vigilance and handled it improperly, so he was relieved of his post of "staying behind and carrying out" and staying in front of the army to listen to it, hoping to pass the credit.

Ina Tadaji, the dignified "acting chief commissioner", without verification, too easily agreed to the fleet's request to set sail ahead of schedule, and was reduced to "chief commissioner assistant".

Haruyasu Hattori, who holds the post of "Metropolitan Police Department Inspector", criticized the poor operation of the prisons under his jurisdiction and the lax discipline of his subordinates, and fined him half a year's action allowance.

Asano Nagayoshi immediately returned to Kishiwada Castle and resumed his position as "chief commissioner". (Of course, I have to explain to him in private: everything is paid to Ina as it was, and you just bow down)

These are all brush-strokes, not enough details.

What really made a big splash was Suzuki Kobei, a member of the Metropolitan Police Department, who praised him as "self-reliant despite ups and downs, humble and not forgetting to worry about the country", notified the whole army to commend him, and summoned him to report to Shingui Mountain Castle.

Two days later, at the official reception, the Lord of the Criminal Department asked about the details of the robbery, and Suzuki Kobei was calm, organized, and came one by one, with a good temperament.

So "Longyan Dayue", as a relief.

Some people say that every question and answer is a prepared line, and the performance is to fool people...... Of course, this is a sinister and sinister rumor, and Hattori-sama will take the time to invite them to have tea.

Then, Suzuki Kobei was given the word "hide" and renamed "Suzuki Hidemoto", and his rank was raised to 350 koku, and his position was moved to "pro-guard", and he was appointed as the head of the pro-guard team.

As the name suggests, the guards are the soldiers who are responsible for the security work around the flat hand, and in front of the leaders, they naturally have the best supply of equipment, the quality of training, and their status is self-evident.

But under normal circumstances, they don't really need to participate in the battle, so since Ii Naotora was pregnant, a total of hundreds of people in the personal guard team no longer have a commander, only more than 100 people are divided into a team, and the captains are honest and reliable related households, such as Kawada Kikin, Sugihara Dingli, and Mori Ryotsu, who directly obey the orders of the general general.

In the face of Takeda's threat, Hirata Honhide withdrew some manpower, hoping to expand the pro-guard group to five or six detachments, about 1,000 people, just enough to have more posts.

The original three detachments were all expanded to more than 200 people, and the new three detachments were 120 or 30 people. And the ordinary ashigaru detachment in the army is generally less than a hundred people.

Along with Hidemoto Suzuki, there were also Owari native Ichikawaoka Nobu and Hirata Nagaken.

Those who are familiar with the history of the Hirate clan will know by hearing this name that these two are also 100% related.

At the scene when the three new captains were announced, at the beginning, the young stakeholders were relatively calm and composed, and they thanked him step by step, but Suzuki Hidemoto, who had passed the year, was so excited that he burst into tears, hoarse and choked, and couldn't help himself, repeatedly using his lacked vocabulary to express his loyalty.

As a result, the two shallow-minded juniors next to them also fidgeted, deeply infected by emotions, and each said something flattering.

Pingshou Fanxiu looked at this "farce" with a smile, and then announced to the retainers very formally: Those Lang Dang who have been unknown and conscientious, but have not been promoted for the time being, don't worry, I will remember all the blood and sweat you have paid, and I will never disappoint the loyal and brave people!

The speech received a wide range of positive feedback, especially from veteran Owari people.

Taking advantage of this trend, Tieshou Tsunosu simply held a long-lost drinking party, so that the whole army could relax a little and wait for the next order arrangement.

This boosted the morale of the people.

Except for Sasa Chengzheng, who was worried about the front line, he had no intention of doing this at all, and his eagerness was overflowing. However, in the face of the justification for the destruction of supplies, he could only hold back his emotions in his heart.

In addition, Xue Chiyo, who has been locked up in the boudoir, is very sullen, this girl was originally a little afraid and resistant to a potential marriage, but after two or three months of delay in Kyoto and Yamato, she would rather go to Gifu Castle early to see what the Matsuchiyomaru of the Sasa family looks like.

A few anomalies did not affect the overall situation, and the atmosphere of the reception was still very warm.

The most polite and courteous person at the banquet was Oda Nagama, who was like a fish in water, with long sleeves and good dancing, full of economy, graceful demeanor, and always gathered many guests around him, talking and laughing freely. Not only are the people of Owari close to him, but the people of Kinai also appreciate his demeanor.

On the contrary, it is the head of the family of Chosamune, who looks clear and beautiful, but is quite bold in speech and demeanor, which makes the "cultural people" stay away, but it is deeply welcomed by the masses in Shikoku and Kii, and at the same time won the favor of the people of Owari.

Among the retainers of the Hirate clan, the one who attracted the most attention was Kawada Nagakin, although he had been away from the center for more than a year, there were still many people who wanted fame and fortune who took the initiative to come forward to pull in the relationship, and others did not receive similar treatment for the time being.

Originally, Hiratite Xiuyi was more qualified for this, but he drank three jars of wine within a quarter of an hour of the start of the banquet, and then banged on the table and slapped the bowl and sang a strange tune, except for the "non-mainstream" who sang with him, no one else could talk to him.

With his qualifications, Iwaki Youtong and Anzhai Nobuyasu with his background, should naturally be important figures, but as a three-good general, it is inevitable to avoid suspicion. What's more, the latter has just been involved in an embarrassing accident and has been criticized.

In the course of the reception, a young businessman who tried his best to open the back door and was able to be brought in to attend, called "Jiro Okamoto Uemon", took advantage of the toast, and was rare to meet with Tie Tsuhide for a few seconds, and said: "In the past two or three days, the price of grain in the vicinity has been rising, and this matter has affected people's livelihood, and I hope that the Lord of the Criminal Department will pay a little attention." ”

The dignified and even-handed punishment department, of course, didn't have time to pay attention to such little people, so he only smiled and said "um", and then left it behind.

Besides...... In fact, the reasons for the rise in food prices are very clear in my heart.

However, the young businessman, seeing the reaction of the Punishment Lord, smiled with great satisfaction, as if he had already received the answer he wanted.

And no one paid any attention to him.

Before the crossing, he was just an average history buff in his previous life, not an expert or scholar who studied the business history of Fuso.

Therefore, he didn't know that in the original history, this young man of "Jiro Okamoto Uemon" changed his name after becoming famous, called "Yodoya Joan".

He is considered to be a celebrity who was the No. 1 wealthy merchant in Fuso during the Momoyama period and the early years of the Edo shogunate.
