The Matsuura clan of the Hizen Province Heido Domain is a famous wealthy family in Toei, with a history dating back to the Heian period (794 A.D. - 1192 A.D.), and the reason why the Matsuura clan is famous has a lot to do with the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, because the Matsuura family is the leader of the 'Japanese Kou' that the Ming Dynasty has a headache for!

At first, the Matsuura family only organized their naval army to plunder the coast of the Korean Peninsula in retaliation for the invasion of the Yuan Dynasty, but after tasting the sweetness, this nature changed, no one will be too much money, once people have money, they will definitely want more money.

What is the fastest way to get money? There's nothing faster than robbing to get money! Therefore, the retaliatory intrusion and plundering of the Korean coast by the Matsuura family gradually evolved into a purely economic plunder of the coastal areas of Korea and the Ming Dynasty.

In the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the famous anti-Japanese generals Qi Jiguang and Yu Dayou were born, and there was no difference between going to the coastal raids of the Ming Dynasty and seeking death, and the 25th governor of the Matsuura clan, Matsuura Takanobu, began to vigorously develop the foreign trade of Hirado, and conquered the northern part of Hizen Province and Iki Province, from a pirate leader to a Hizen guard, and the popular name of the guardian is Daimyo.

Now the governor of the Matsuura family is also called Matsuura Takanobu, but he is not the 25th generation of the governor Matsuura Takanobu, just the same name, he is already the 27th generation of the Matsuura family, and that Matsuura Takanobu is his grandfather. The name Dongying people is a bit confusing, grandpa and grandson are all called by the same name, which makes people confused. Well, the question of the name is not important, so I will not discuss it here, in short, just know that it is such a person.

Now the life of the Matsuura family is not easy now, since the Tokugawa Shogunate began to find ways to crack down on non-cronies of the daimyo after the unification of the Tokugawa Shogunate, this Matsuura family is the target of the Tokugawa Shogunate, such as the port of foreign trade, the Tokugawa Shogunate intends to move from Hirado to Nagasaki, and for example, this Hizen Guardian was originally from the fourth rank (equivalent to from the fourth rank of the official position), but it was taken by the Tokugawa Shogunate to the ...... from the fifth position.

Just as the Matsuura clan was focusing on the struggle against the Tokugawa shogunate, the Masagawa clan, or Tagawa clan, returned with Tagawa Nanazaemon.

It's not uncommon to be a daughter's home province, but the movement of the wife of the Nanwang of Daming Town is a bit big, and there are no less than 100 Daifuku ships escorted with her, which scared the defenders of the Hirado Domain, thinking that this was the Ming Dynasty attacking Dongying!

Fortunately, when the Tagawa clan went to that station, the defending generals of the Hirado Domain were relieved, this is a famous beauty, the daughter of Emperor Tagawa, who doesn't know it. I heard that she was married to the king of Zhennan of the Ming Dynasty, so it is not surprising that there is such a large-scale fleet escort.

Due to the rush of time, Zheng Zhilong did not send someone to inform his father-in-law, so Emperor Tian Chuan Yu didn't know that his daughter was back, he was supervising the manufacture of weapons in the mansion at this time, don't look at him is close to the age of sixties, but his spirit is still strong, and the strong physique trained by the perennial iron makes him look like a strong man in his forties.

Just as he was staring at the hammer in his subordinate's hand and was about to try it, an old steward stumbled in, panting and shouting, "My lord, my lord, Miss and Young Master Sun are back!" ”

The elderly generally miss their children and grandchildren who are away from home, and Emperor Tian Chuan Yu is no exception, especially when he has a daughter, his wife also went, and he is faced with a group of subordinates all day long, and the huge mansion does not even have a caring relative, and the loneliness in his heart is indescribable.

So, when he heard that his daughter had returned with her grandson, he immediately ran to the door dancing, and he was as excited as a child at the moment.

At this time, the gate of Tagawa Mansion is even more lively than the market, and there is a long convoy on the main road in the middle, and hundreds of soldiers with muskets in their hands on both sides are standing there straight on the wall, and then there is a lively crowd outside, I am afraid that there are not thousands of people, and it is not uncommon to point fingers.

The Tagawa clan was about to enter the door with the small seven Saemon, and a strong old man had rushed to the door, it was Emperor Tagawa Yuhuang who heard the news, he ran to the door and saw his daughter and grandson, and he was stunned for a while. He just stood in the doorway, watching stupidly, two lines of hot tears slowly welling up from his eyes.

Tian Chuan is still so gentle and virtuous, although she is excited to see her father who thinks about her day and night, she does not forget the etiquette, she first bowed down and made a big salute, and then said gently: "Father, I am back." ”

When she saluted, her hand was released, Xiao Qizaemon didn't know what etiquette was, he ran up directly, and shouted: "Grandpa, grandpa, I'm back." ”

Emperor Tagawa Yu subconsciously opened his arms, picked up the little seven emon who pounced on him, and muttered: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”

The Tagawa clan let their ancestors and grandchildren warm up for a while, and then they stepped forward and gently reminded: "Father, let's go in and talk about it." ”

Emperor Tian Chuan Yuhuang realized that he was blocking the door at this time, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Okay, okay, go in and say, go in and say." ”

With that, he turned around and walked inside.

Tagawa waved his hand behind him, then followed with a smile, a team of guards followed quickly, and the others began to move the gifts to the house.

Although Emperor Tagawa Yu is not the biggest retainer of the Matsuura family, the nature of his work determines that the Tagawa Mansion must not be small, and turning sand, smelting, and building weapons are all very space-consuming. He teased his grandson while chatting with his daughter, and walked for almost a quarter of an hour before arriving at his official residence.

Emperor Tagawa Yuhuang's excitement calmed down a little, and he was about to arrange for a frightening person to prepare a big meal for his daughter and grandson, but Tagawa raised his hand to stop him: "Father, don't worry, I still have something to tell you." ”

Emperor Tagawa Yu naturally had no opinion, he knelt down on this one with Xiaoqizaemon in his arms, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's talk for a while." ”

Tian Chuan first waved off his subordinates softly, and then walked to the door and gave the accompanying guards an inquiring look, and after the captain of the guard nodded affirmatively, she carefully closed the door, turned around and whispered in Chinese: "Father, my husband is also here." ”

Emperor Tagawa Yu almost jumped up from the ground when he heard this, his son-in-law is not an ordinary person, the prince of the Ming Dynasty can be said to be older than the shogun of Dongying, and he is here at this time, he is afraid that he will have to ask the head of the Matsuura family to meet him.

Seeing that he looked like he wanted to get up and walk out, Tagawa hurriedly raised his hand and said, "Father, husband, he doesn't want people to know that he is coming." ”

Emperor Tian Chuan Yu was stunned when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "I'm here but I don't want people to know that he's coming, what's going on?" ”

Tagawa patiently explained: "Because he wants to do a big thing, it will be inconvenient for people to know that he is coming." ”

Emperor Tian Chuan Yu was even more strange: "What is the big thing, can't let people know yet?" ”

Tagawa stared at his father and said solemnly, "He wants to help his father take the position of Hizen's guard." ”

When Emperor Tagawa Yu heard this, he was dumbfounded, he really didn't think about this problem, he was a blacksmith, not even a samurai, and there was not a single soldier under him, he never dreamed of this guardian position! Suddenly, he heard that his son-in-law was going to put him in the position of a daimyo, and he was really dumbfounded.

He was stunned for a long time before he stammered: "This, this, let me be a big name?" ”

Tagawa nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, my father will not only be the daimyo of Hizen Province and Iki Province in the future, but also the daimyo of Kyushu, and finally, you will become the shogun!" ”

He didn't even think about the daimyo, let alone the shogun, a daimyo is actually equivalent to a county order of the Ming Dynasty, and the power of the shogunate general in Dongying is equivalent to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, this county order has never been thought of, and now let him be the emperor, Emperor Tagawa Yu feels that his brain is a little insufficient, what is the situation?

Kochizaemon is different, the so-called ambition is not old, since he was three or four years old, he has already fantasized about being a shogun, and when he heard what his mother said about the shogun, he immediately clapped his hands and said: "Okay, good, I want to be a shogun." ”

As soon as these words came out, the frightened Emperor Tagawa Yuhuang's face turned white, he quickly covered Xiao Qizaemon's mouth, scanned the surroundings nervously, and said in horror: "My little ancestor, don't shout so loudly, it's terrible to be heard." ”

The Tagawa clan glared at Kochizaemon gently, and continued: "Father, how many retainers of the Matsuura family have a higher status than you now?" ”

How many retainers were of higher status than him? The status is much higher than him, if it weren't for the light of his son-in-law, he would have the lowest status among the retainers, and the other retainers are all leading soldiers, and he has a bunch of blacksmiths under him, where can his status be high.

He thought for a while, shook his head and said: "If you want to talk about the real status, as long as you are a retainer, your status is higher than mine, I am just stained with the light of an official, and I have no name." ”

When the Tagawa clan heard this, he said seriously: "Then please ask my father to write down the names and addresses of all the retainers of the Matsuura clan, and my husband will help you clear these obstacles." ”

Cleaned up? Emperor Tagawa Yuhuang was taken aback, those were all his colleagues, and they had been friends for decades, how could they do this! He said unhappily: "What does he want to do?" The head of the Matsuura family is not thin on him, and he knows most of the retainers, and everyone has been friends for decades, why should this happen? ”

Why is it like this, the Tagawa clan is not clear, she is just here to pass the word, if she is forced to explain, then there is only one reason, she said helplessly: "The husband has no choice, this is the emperor's will." ”

When Emperor Tian Chuan heard this, he finally understood a little, and he reprimanded: "Your Majesty? Are you talking about the Chongzheng Emperor of the Ming Dynasty? Is it Daming's idea to fight us Dongying? How can you help outsiders against your own country! ”

The Tagawa clan has always been very gentle and has never contradicted his father, but this time she retorted firmly: "Father, we are descendants of the Han people, Da Ming is not an outsider, Dongying is." You didn't object when your husband wanted to rebel, why can't you figure it out now? ”

When Emperor Tian Chuan heard this, he was immediately deflated, and he said dejectedly: "You can't kill all your old friends for decades in order to become a Ming Dynasty, right?" ”

Seeing that his father's attitude had changed, Tian Chuan hurriedly hit the railroad while it was hot: "Father doesn't have to worry about those things, let the husband do it, you see, Sen'er will be the king of Zhennan of the Ming Dynasty in the future, but Xiaoqizaemon can only inherit your position as a vassal priest, is this too unfair to him?" ”

Emperor Tagawa Yuhuang looked at Xiao Qi Saemon lovingly, yes, although Zheng Sen is not an outsider, but Xiao Qi Saemon has passed to the Tagawa clan, one is a grandson, the other is a grandson, how can he let his own grandson be wronged!

For the sake of Emperor Yu, who is a small seven emon Tagawa Yuhuang, he nodded slowly, his grandson is the prince of the Ming Dynasty, and his own grandson must be the shogunate!
