This lady who does not know whether she has officially entered the Buddhist gate, is tall and tall, with gentle eyebrows, looks more than thirty years old, has a Dharma name called "Chunguang", and there is a contemptible courtyard in the Daxin Courtyard not far away, the outer wall is unremarkable, the inside is very noble, and the cost of food and lodging is extravagant. But it is not a bustling and frolicking place, but quite deserted, before the visit of the flat hand, it looks as if it has not received guests for many years, it is the so-called "flower path has not been swept by guests, and the pengmen is now open for you".

Vegetarian food is indeed very delicious, but the entrance vaguely tastes like a fishy smell, and the reason for this is that I dare not think about it.

Pingshou Fanxiu gets up in the morning, returns in the evening, talks and laughs with the spring light master, looks radiant when he enters the hospital, and is tired when he goes out. The other party always changed the topic casually, and it was inconvenient for him to ask directly, so it took him most of the day to guide him side-by-side, so that he could be regarded as hearing the specific information about the quarrel between the shogunate and the ministers from the witnesses at the first scene.

According to the nun's description, Ashikaga Yoshiaki and Mibuchi Fujiei did not just have a disagreement, but after drinking some monk wine, they argued for a long time, and both of them blushed and became angry.

Judging from the lines, Mibuchi Fujiei seems to be a little too carried away, and he thinks that the shogunate has been successfully restored, and it is time to enjoy the fruits of victory.

And Ashikaga Yoshiaki was very disapproving, laughing at him for thinking too simply, and also reprimanded that Mibuchi Fujiei had made many mistakes in his recent military affairs, and his attitude was very problematic.

Stimulated by alcohol, the two sides quarreled.

Then the general rose into a rage and shouted to "order seppuku".

Hearing this, Mibuchi Fuji Ying woke up in shock and didn't speak again, of course, he didn't really commit suicide immediately, but he also gritted his teeth and refused to apologize and beg for mercy.

This incident alarmed many monks who were meditating nearby, and they all came over to persuade and plead, Ashikaga Yoshiaki finally borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, snorted coldly, and changed his words: "Let's avoid the death penalty, leave you to reflect on this Buddhist holy land!" Let's see the after-effects! ”

Mibuchi Fujiying's temperament didn't know whether it was true or false, and after the general left, he said angrily: "You don't need to look at the after-effects, your subordinates will become monks in the future, and you can find a Zen temple here to place an order, so as not to upset the princess." ”

So there was one less retainer in the imperial office, and one more monk in Miaoshin Temple.

Tie Tsusho felt a little embarrassed.

By the standards of the new era, Mibuchi Fujiying is an out-and-out mediocre general, who is very average in governing the army and governing the government, and is not good at bow horses, literary talents, and strategy, and the overall situation is even worse.

If it is in a tie, he can be a top team, and General Bei is estimated to have no chance.

However, this "mediocre general" is a rare loyal minister.

After the occurrence of the "Eiroku Great Rebellion" that year, when Hosokawa Fujitaka carried Ashikaga Yoshiaki on his back, Mibuchi Fujiei, who was not outstanding in martial arts, carried a knife and fought with the Miyoshi family's pursuers throughout the whole process.

With this kind of affection, no matter how much you make a mistake, you should not be severely punished.

However, it is important that there are many loopholes in military affairs, and it looks like it is justified and not taken seriously, which is also a headache.

"Actually, I heard that Lord Gongfang has preserved the Zhixing place of the Mibuchi Hall in the Fushimi area, and there is no intention of taking back the direct jurisdiction or transferring it to others, and it seems that it can be returned to the original owner at any time......" The news of the harunguang master seems to be very well-informed, and he even knows this, "Now this situation is also a face-saving situation, and no one refuses to bow their heads first, but it has really become a dead festival." ”

Hirata felt more and more that there were too many messy things in Ki, and it was not suitable to live for a long time.

It's okay if you don't know about this kind of conflict within the shogunate, and once you bump into your own identity, it's awkward to say no matter what, and it's not appropriate to pretend that you haven't heard of it.

It is still the right way to find a way to stay outside, wait until the contradictions in the center intensify and turmoil breaks out, and then come back to clean up the situation.

The two families of Oda and Asai are fighting openly and secretly, and there is also an Ashikaga Yoshiaki on top, and it should be impossible for anyone to suddenly defeat all the opponents of the drug tyrant for a while.

But now that the princess has made it clear that you want to keep it, you have to find a better reason.

I don't know when the explosive barrels planted by Shikoku will explode?

- That's what the psychology of the tie is thinking.

But he waited for an urgent letter from Asano Nagayoshi, a left-behind officer of Izumi.

There was only one sentence written on the letter:

"Recently, someone has been found to have forged a large number of my family's 'ration stamps' around Kai Town, which are very similar in appearance, and the source has not yet been identified."

Pingshou couldn't sit still immediately, and jumped up from the mat in shock.

It was true that there was a change that was enough as an excuse to leave Kyoto, but the direction of the change was a bit unexpected!

Hurriedly left a text message for Ashikaga Yoshiaki to explain the situation - regardless of whether his old man could understand it or not, he rushed to Izumi with his personal guards.

……

"Takagoshiya" was originally a second-rate merchant in the Owari territory, and it was only after the green clouds of the Hiteite family that it gradually got involved in financial operations such as pawnbroking and lending, and in the past two years, it has focused on the printing of "military food coupons", and the business has been completely transformed.

Pingshou Fanxiu attaches great importance to the anti-counterfeiting measures of this "soldier grain roll", and sent people from all over the world to collect all the bills that are in use or have been in pass, such as the Great Song Dynasty Jiaozi, the Meng Guohao merchant secret deposit, the Venice bill of exchange, the Medici bank deposit certificate, etc., and absorbed the essence of a variety of schemes.

The material is made of rare plant fibers, the center of the ticket is made of two-color intricate decorative patterns, the border hides a code that only one's own people can understand, and the corner is stamped with a miniature carved seal. Except for the fact that the mass production cost of watermarks is too high and is excluded, everything else that can be used is used.

The smallest denomination of the "Soldier Rations Roll" is one stone, and the black market price is six or seven hundred wen, which is not something that ordinary people can afford to spend casually, and is generally only used for large-scale payments. If the parties to the transaction have doubts about the authenticity, they can go directly to the relevant store and find professionals to identify, which is a means of guaranteeing the bottom line other than technology.

It's only been around for about two years, and it's hard to believe that local merchants can replicate it so seamlessly that it's hard to see.

In charge of printing and distribution, it is the form of the side room zygote Tamagoshi Sankuro. This person was enterprising when he was young, and he earned some gold and silver by relying on the advantage of knowing the information of the Oda family in advance, but now he is not confused but has gradually become conservative and timid, which is suitable for the job of the supervisor who does not seek merit but does not seek fault.

The factory is located at the junction of Izumi, Hanoi and Kii, a deserted three-regardless area, the craftsmen are divided into seven kinds of posts to work together, each person is only responsible for a process, each other is not allowed to talk at will, food, clothing, housing and transportation are closed, entry and exit must be carefully audited, and five teams of ashigaru and four groups of ninjas belonging to different command sequences are on duty in shifts to supervise each other. The master who really mastered the core technology lived in Kishiwada Castle with a high salary, and the supervision was even stricter.

After thinking about it, no matter which link went wrong, it should not be a large number of counterfeit coins without warning.

If it is a problem caused by internal infiltration, it can only mean that the degree of penetration has reached an unimaginable level. Compared with the financial impact caused by counterfeit money, this point worries Tieshou Honxiu more.

In the early morning of the second day of November, I set out from Miaoxin Temple on the outskirts of Beijing, crossed the road of 14 and a half miles (about 57 kilometers), and rushed back to Hequan in the evening.

The flat man on the tall mount was quite tired, and only half of the three hundred guards had a horse, and the other half were tired enough.

It was reported that Asano Nagayoshi, the remaining servant of Izumi, had come to Kai Town, and was waiting with Kinoshita Hideyoshi, the town commissioner appointed by Nobunaga, and the head of the group, Imai Munehisa.

Tie Hyun Xiu directly revealed his identity and rode into the commission on a horse.

When the three men heard the movement, they all came out and stood in the courtyard.

I had expected all kinds of scenes before, but I didn't expect that as soon as we met, Asano Nagayoshi knelt on the ground with red eyes full of remorse, and whimpered and said bitterly: "Lord! We were fooled! ”

Pingshou Fan Xiu was stunned for a moment, and he would be mistaken: "Have you found the reason for the circulation of counterfeit banknotes?" Where did you fall for it? Was the printing technology stolen, or was the person involved being bought? ”

“…… It's not ......," Asano Nagayoshi shook his head violently in hatred, "I mean - this whole thing is a scam, and the so-called counterfeit money is rampant, it's a fake at all!" ”

What does this mean?

The tie was stunned.

The face of Imai Munehisa next to him was limited to that of Asano Nagayoshi, and when he saw this, he smiled bitterly, stepped forward and said, "Tie Punishment Department, let's show you...... You see, the one on my left hand is a real soldier food coupon printed by the 'Yuyue House', which is worth 100 stones. The one in his right hand is the so-called forged military ration stamps that have been arguing in Kaimachi for the past few days......"

As he spoke, Imai Munehisa took out two tickets of the same size and similar appearance.

Tie hand Fan Xiushun went over and fixed his eyes to take a look-

I immediately understood the meaning of "fooled".

This counterfeit coin is so fake that it is impossible to confuse it as long as it is not blind.

The real "military ration coupon", the pattern is complex but the lines are clear, the coloring is uniform and shiny and bright, and the words of the miniature carved chapter are clearly visible with a magnifying glass. In front of the fake scroll, the details of the pattern are blurred, the color is dull and unevenly smeared, and the micro-carvings are even more messy, and it is completely impossible to see a few lines of Chinese characters.

If it is used in small denominations, it may be careless. But each one is worth a hundred stones, how can the person who collects the money not compare them carefully?

In this way, this kind of inferior counterfeit money cannot become a climate at all, so what is the reason why Asano Nagayoshi's letter says that "the appearance is very similar, and the fake is true"?

Hirata Hideyoshi suddenly realized that Kinoshita Hideyoshi, who had always been talkative and expressive in the past, was sitting quietly on the ground today, with no expression on his face and no words, and there was a strange aura on his body.

Imai Munehisa then stepped forward and explained, "We were all led by people to believe that there were really counterfeit coins...... Let's not talk about this, anyway, when Kinoshita-sama learned of this the matter the afternoon before yesterday, he immediately sent people to a suspicious place to investigate, and after a day and a night, he did not find the criminal who secretly distributed counterfeit money—perhaps there was no such person at all, but he found many surprising and frightening things. ”
