"But this is the system set by Taige during his lifetime, how can it be said that it will be abolished?" Not to be outdone, Ukita Hideya said bluntly: "Noto Mamoru just said that the two turmoils were because of the elder to make trouble, but the pacification of the turmoil also depends on us elders?" Everything must be seen from both sides, and must not be one-sided. ”

"Your Highness's words are wrong," Maeda Toshimasa immediately corrected: "In these two turmoil, if you say that you participated in the counterinsurgency, not only you and me, but also the daimyo of the world have also participated to a greater or lesser extent. But if you really rely on whom, I think Your Highness should also know in your heart that there is only His Highness the Right Mansion, isn't it? ”

With that, Maeda Toshimasa respectfully owed Hideho, who bowed his head slightly in response. Seeing this situation, Ukita Hideya was speechless for a while, and he couldn't say anything to refute for a long time.

"What Nengden Shou said is extremely true, after the funeral of Taige, didn't all the turmoil be pacified by the Right Mansion, and even the riot that affected Beizhong and Meizuo was also pacified by the Right Mansion in the center, doesn't the Yellow Gate Hall remember?" Asano Nagamasa saw the stitches and took the opportunity to challenge the Ukita Hide's family.

Asano Nagamasa's "preparation for the Ukita riot" is more commonly called the "Ukita riot" by the outside world, but because of the presence of the Ukita Hideya, he is inconvenient to say it clearly. But this still stung the scars of the Ukita Hideya, thinking of the predicament at that time and the decline of the Ukita family now, he seems to have lost the courage and confidence to argue with Hideho and others in an instant.

After that riot, most of the important ministers of the Uki family were killed in battle or exiled, and after that, although the Ukita Hideya still retained 570,000 stone Zhiyuki, due to the lack of good generals and unstable people's hearts, it was difficult to get effective command even if the whole leader was mobilized, and the strength of the Uki family at this time was only equivalent to about 200,000 stone daimyo, so he was asked by Hidebo to stay in Osaka instead of going to Aizu together. Subsequently, in the face of the aggressiveness of the Mori clan, the Ukita Hideya did not resist and surrendered Osaka Castle, although there were other reasons, but the weakness of its own strength was one of the factors that could not be ignored.

Facing Asano Nagamasa's questioning, the Ukita Hideya family was really a little weak-hearted: "Yes, I haven't even handled my own family affairs, how can I still be qualified to stay as the elder?" Are you still qualified to discuss the survival and abolition of this system? But if the elder system is really abolished, won't the right government cover the sky in the future? Rather than this, it is better to take a compromise. ”

Thinking of this, Ukita Hideya said to Hideho: "The world is indeed inseparable from the right house, and I am also grateful. But will the hasty abolition of the elder system cause unintended consequences? In my opinion, it is possible to maintain the current structure for the first time, that is, not to replace new daimyos, and not to rush to abolish this system, and after a period of time, make a separate decision according to the actual situation. ”

This is the last way that the Ukita Hideya can think of, although they can't add their favorite daimyo to the center, but as long as they are still there, this system is still there, and everything is possible in the future.

However, what he didn't expect was that two of the only three people left in the joint meeting of the elders directly objected.

"Your Highness, with all due respect, there are only two elders, and a joint meeting is pursued, how much meaning does it have, and what role can it play? In the lower and Dan Zheng have the same mind and the same opinion, that is, to abolish this system that affects the stability of the world as soon as possible, so as to avoid further incidents. Maeda Toshimasa's tone was firm, and he did not have the slightest nostalgia for the position of the elder, which surprised the Ukita Hideya.

"Noto Mamoru is right," Asano Nagamasa also expressed his thoughts and attitudes: "Earlier, when the elder and the council had a total of ten people, some daimyo were dissatisfied, thinking that their strength was far above that of some of the elders, so why should they stay below others for a long time. Now that His Highness wants to keep only three people, won't it arouse the disgust of the powerful local daimyo even more? In the past, three of the five elders knew more than one million stones, and two people had more than 500,000 stones, but they barely made the other daimyo dare to be angry and dare not speak, but now? At most, he was able to hold the house of 830,000 koku, and even more so than 380,000 koku, so what was the ability to command and control other daimyos, especially those who were arrogant and arrogant in war? ”

"If the Yellow Gate Hall does not give up the position of the elder, it can be understood below. However, I beg your pardon for not being able to work with you in this joint meeting of the Elders. Speaking of this, Asano Nagamasa bowed deeply to Ukita Hideya, seemingly polite, but in fact it was a gesture and a clear line.

"The two adults have misunderstood, and they are by no means reluctant to take the position of the elder!" Faced with this situation, Ukita Hideya hurriedly explained: "I'm just worried, without this system, how will I manage the world in the future?" Is it just relying on the right house? ”

"What about relying on the right house?!" Maeda Toshimasa asked loudly, "Tokugawa, Uesugi and Mori are not the opponents of the right government, and now, the right government is also justified in governing the world as a young master, who dares to question it?" ”

"It's not that I doubt the ability of the right government, it's just that the government affairs are heavy, how can the right government be able to withstand it alone?" Ukita Hideya didn't want to be opposed to Hideho, so he came up with such a set of arguments.

But Asano Nagamasa and Maeda Toshimasa wanted to show goodwill to Hideho through this matter, so they were uncompromising on the abolition of the bigwig system, and Asano Nagamasa showed an unusual "generosity": "Your Highness, this is too much to worry about, in our opinion, whether it is the elder or the practice, it is just a title, we are all for the Toyotomi clan, for the young lord of Hideyori, isn't it the elder, if you don't pursue it, you can do nothing about yourself, and you can do it alone?" In the future, when the right government is in power, we can still help from the side as we do now, but without the name of the elder and the pursuer, there will be less shackles, and it will be much easier in the future. Does this make sense? ”

Asano Nagamasa said this to Ukita Hideya, but in the end, his face turned to Hideho, who nodded with a smile and "reassured" everyone present: "What Danmasa said is really frustrating, no matter who is in charge in the future, I should do my best, and Hideho and I will be no exception." Of course, if it is really up to the next temporary representative of Xiu Lai to manage the world, you will inevitably need your assistance, Xiu Bao is here to thank you in advance! ”

"Is this a tacit approval?!" Ukita Hideya was both shocked and disappointed by Hidebo's answer, he didn't expect Hidebo to express his thoughts so bluntly, "It seems that power really makes people change." ”

Seeing that the Ukita Hide's family did not pick up, Maeda Toshimasa hurriedly picked it up: "Your Highness, don't shirk it, the heavens are entrusted to the capable, you are in charge, and in the future, there will be His Royal Highness Lao in the world!" ”

Today, Maeda Toshimasa and Asano Nagamasa sang and harmonized, and did their best for Hideho's administration, and Hideho naturally saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart. Now, everyone has made their attitudes clear and their thoughts clear, and they are waiting for Ukita Hideya to make a final statement.
