"Madam, I didn't expect that the first meeting after returning to Beijing would be like this. {sui}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}臣...... I really don't know why you're doing this. "It was Hideho who was the first to break the tranquility, and even though he was disappointed in Yodohime, he tried to restrain the impulse in his heart out of the courtesy of the king.

"Right House...... The concubine didn't mean to embarrass you, it was Ichimasa who said......" Yodohime leaned forward, as if she wanted to get as close to Hideho as possible, but when she really looked at Hidebo, she didn't know how to explain what she had just done, so she could only bite her lip and try to show her heart to Hideho with her eyes.

"The city is the teacher of the young lord of Xiulai, and the minister is not dissatisfied. But recently, some rumors about the minister have also spread all over Osaka because of this adult, and if you don't take some measures, I'm afraid you really want to treat the minister as a bully! Xiu Bao was angry, her eyes were full of anger, and the wrinkles that had accumulated between her eyebrows burned Yodohime's heart like anger, and it was the first time she had seen Xiu Bao have such a big fire, and her heart was both frightened and regretful.

"Youfu is angry, although there are some things and some words that are excessive, but after all, he is the Taige Emperor during his lifetime, and I ask you to bear with me. Besides, not all of his opinions have been rejected by you, your goal has been achieved, so why is there any need to attack him? ”

"Listen to Madame, this plan is done by the minister, and it is also for the benefit of the minister?" Hideho didn't expect this kind of words to come out of Yodohime's mouth, although it was impossible for him and Yodohime, but before he went out to Kanto, he was still very grateful to Yodohime for his support. It's only been three months, and Yodohime listens to other people's slander and is so vigilant about herself, which makes it difficult for Hideho to accept.

"Please take a good look at this plan, which of the names on it should not be sealed, reduced, or even changed? Which reward and punishment is determined by the minister's own likes and dislikes? ”

Yodohime looked down at the plan and muttered softly: "Previously, the city was worried that you would use Hideyori's hiding place to reward the Omi faction and the daimyo close to you, but from this plan, it can be seen that his worries are not unreasonable......"

"Madame, did you have a report on the battle from the northeast from the minister?" Hideho asked.

Yodohime shook her head: "The battle report or something, it's all about Kaga Da Nayan and the Ministry of Governance, and the concubine body has not read it, but the good news of your triumphant victory, the concubine body knows." ”

"In that case, Madame must not know how many battles have taken place in various places since the Eastern Crusade, and what sacrifices have those daimyo who fought for the Toyotomi clan paid?"

"This ......," Yodohime choked for a moment.

Nachen told his wife that since the beginning of the war, the war has spread all over the 66 countries of the world from Mutsu in the east to Kyushu in the west, and there have been more than 270 large and small battles, and no daimyo has stayed out of the matter, some of the retainers have all been killed in battle, some of their wives and children and their families have been slaughtered, and some have even taken their own lives. What do you think these pictures are about? Hideho asked.

"Naturally, it is to repay the kindness of Taige." Yodohime replied self-righteously.

"The grace of Taiko?" Xiubao couldn't help but smile: "Who gave Madame such an illusion?" If you want to say that Ukita and Yuki will repay the kindness of Taiko, the minister will reluctantly agree; Then Date Masamune of Mutsu and Yoshihiro Shimazu of Satsuma also tried their best in the battle, why is this, is it to repay the grace of Taiko? ”

When Yodohime heard this, she also felt embarrassed, and asked, "Then why do you think they are so hardworking?" ”

"It's nothing more than profit-driven." Xiubao hit the nail on the head and said: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit." It is not excluded that there are still people who insist on loyalty in this troubled world, but most of them are people who forget their righteousness, and it is too naïve for you to expect these guys to think of the grace of Taige when he was alive and work for the young master.

This time, it took three months to defeat Tokugawa, Uesugi and other powerful powers, and re-establish the prestige of the Toyotomi clan, to put it mildly, you and the young lord live in Osaka in peace, sit back and enjoy its success, we are outside the life and death, bravely kill the enemy, the minister is the Toyotomi clan does not feel that there is anything wrong, but what about the other daimyos? Especially those who are outwardly famous, do they think it is natural?

'Taige is Taige, the young master is the young master, the young master has the ability of the Taige, and can enjoy the Ze of the Taige? This is not said by the minister, but by the minister when many daimyo talk in private, what does this mean, Madame should be able to understand, right? ”

After Hideho said this, Yodohime couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart: "How can they say that?!" The whole world is laid down by Taiko, and they must serve the Toyotomi clan for generations! ”

"Madam, with all due respect, if you lose this battle, can you still say this? Those who followed the Tokugawa clan uprising also received the grace of Taiko, for them, do your words have the slightest meaning? Therefore, today, in the absence of absolute superiority, only interests can tie them to our Toyotomi clan. ”

"However, most of the people you sealed are the Owari faction and your retainers." Yodohime is still haunted by this matter.

"If you don't seal them, will you seal them to the outside?" Hideho then asked rhetorically, "Besides, their outstanding performance on the battlefields in various places has also been recognized by other daimyos, and the sealing is well deserved." On the contrary, for the Omi faction, the minister would like to ask, did they play any major role in this series of counterinsurgency processes? Is it Maeda Monkmasa, or is he Katagiri Sukesaku, who has been to the battlefield for hand-to-hand combat? If they are sealed, will those outward names be recognized?

Madam, in this battle, the minister exhausted his family's savings, and did his best to mobilize 100,000 troops, even the troops stationed there, but he didn't expect to be framed by the villain behind him...... Anyway, if the lady really feels inappropriate or embarrassed, the minister can dismiss the general, and give it to whoever wants it. ”

"Never, Your Highness!" Yodohime hurriedly dissuaded: "Now that the daimyo from all over the world are gathering in Osaka, if you do this, then who will stop them?" Yodohime was very worried, if Hidebo ordered the disbandment of the army at this moment, would those out-of-the-ordinary daimyo take the opportunity to do something out of the ordinary, after all, no one in the world except Hidebo could command them now.

"Madame, you are wrong." Xiubao waved his hand and corrected: "After the Taige funeral, there is no one who can suppress the world's great names. The minister can't, and the young master can't, just like the minister just said, the only way to make them obedient now is to give them enough benefits. ”

"Concessions, concessions, do my Toyotomi clan have to endure like this all the time, and in the long run, what will be left of Taige for our mother and son?" Yodohime was unwilling, "Is there really no way, Your Highness, as the queen of Xiu Lai, the concubine of Xiu Chang, you must think of something!" ”
