Although Mori Hidemoto originally had 160,000 stone Zhixing, it was hopeless to become the head of the Mori clan after the birth of Mori Terumoto's son-in-law. This time, let him join the Jizong family and inherit the 480,000 stone of the two countries, which is undoubtedly the highest reward that Xiubao can give. In addition, as Hidebo's brother-in-law, under the current situation of the scarcity of the Yamato Toyotomi clan, he was naturally included in Hidebo's relatives to take special care, which was also the main reason why Hideho asked Mori Terumoto and the Mori retainers who participated in the war to retire.

You must know that in and Mutsu, the Mori clan played an important role, occupying Osaka, conquering Fushimi, besieging Mt. Mitoyama, and sneaking up on Hideho Honjin, all of which were the "merits" of the Mori clan. It's hard to imagine that if Mori Terumoto alone was deliberately making enemies of Hideho, Mori would never have been so proactive. Obviously, the pro-Tokugawa and anti-Hideho forces within the Mori clan dominated, and if these guys were not completely kicked out of the core of the Mori clan's power, Mori Hidemoto's future governance would be difficult.

Therefore, Hideho came up with the idea of adding the above prerequisites to the plan, in order to prevent the likes of Mori Motoyasu and Ankokuji Huiqiong from continuing to stir up trouble, so as to ensure the stability of the Chinese region.

Compared with Yuki Hideyasu's sealing of 420,000 stones, Mori Hidemoto actually only sealed 320,000 stones, but the latter's power and status in the center in the future will be much higher than the former, and the former has been transferred, and the difficulties faced in the future and the extra 100,000 stones are likely to outweigh the losses.

Ukita Hideya can understand Hidebo's explanation, and he can only express his understanding.

First of all, in the eyes of outsiders, Hideho did this not only as a punishment for Tokugawa Ieyasu and Mori Terumoto, but also as a reward for Yuki Hideyasu and Mori Hidemoto, with clear rewards and punishments and convincing; In the eyes of the Ukita Hideya, who are important ministers who are interested in the Toyotomi clan, although Hideho has the intention of winning over and weakening the Tokugawa and Mori families, it is not a big problem for the power of the clan, after all, it seems that the weakening of the outer daimyo will do more good than harm to the weak clan, and there is no need to oppose it too much.

Because of this, Ukita Hideya did not have much opinion on the disposal of Uesugi Keikatsu. After all, a daimyo with a knowledge of nearly 1.2 million koku was transferred to the impoverished Shinbata of Echigo, and became a medium-sized daimyo with a table height of 150,000 koku and a real height of barely more than 100,000, and this punishment was enough. Moreover, the main battle faction in the family, Naoe Kanesugu and others, were ordered to cut their stomachs, and all the important ministers died in Hinohara, and the Uesugi clan who returned to Echigo could no longer make any big waves.

It is worth mentioning that the Uesugi clan's retainer Honjo Shiganaga did not transfer to Echigo together, but was given the status of an independent daimyo by Hideho, and became the lord of 50,000 stone Chiyuki who owned Fukushima Castle and surrounding territories. Hideho did this, on the one hand, to further weaken the Uesugi clan, and on the other hand, to use Honjo's prosperity to defend Date Masamune, after all, in the previous battle, Honjo was able to hold on to Fukushima Castle in the face of the large-scale attack of the Date army, and this kind of commander's ability Hideho could not let go.

"There is a second question below," Ukita Hideya continued, "Why did Ishida Jibu and the others, who had caused a riot and trampled on the authority of the Toyotomi clan, transfer him to Kanto and become the lord of the country? In the next suggestion, his knowledge and deeds should be cut to 50,000 stones, and Osaka should still be retained, and he should be guilty of meritorious service. ”

"Keep Osaka and make meritorious contributions?" Xiubao couldn't help but sneer in his heart: "It's really hard for you to come up with this method." I gave him the lord of a country, that is, to keep him away from the center, and now in exchange for reducing the seal of 140,000 stones, in exchange for him to continue to stay in Osaka and fight against me, how can there be such a deal in the world? Aren't you just afraid that after the fall of the Yamato faction, my Yamato Toyotomi clan will be the only one? To put it bluntly, why do you need to beat around the bush like this? Oh, yes, I've helped you several times, and if you speak out against it directly, I'm afraid you'll have to tell the truth...... Raising an objection now is probably the best way to come up with it, right? ”

"Your Highness's suggestion is inappropriate in your opinion." Without waiting for Hideho to speak, Asano Nagamasa, who was sitting on the side, preemptively said: "This time in Osaka, Ishida Jibu is the initiator, not to mention the right house and Zaixia, those daimyo below, especially the Owari faction, but they are all gritting their teeth and wanting to get rid of it quickly." His Royal Highness insisted on leaving the government in Osaka, which was not good for the situation, the personal safety of the government, and the stability of the regime. The right government placed him in Kanto, not only to give face to the young lord and Mrs. Yodo, but also to ease the anger of the daimyo, and most importantly, to ensure the safety of the administration as much as possible.

After all, the Ministry of Governance was the most relied on retainer of Taige during his lifetime, and giving him the status of the lord of a country can be regarded as a bright rise and a secret surrender to save his life. If His Highness has to keep him, then please consult with the daimyo of the Owari faction. ”

"This ......" Ukita Hideya didn't expect Asano Nagamasa to stand up at this time, and he was really a little caught off guard. For the Daimyo of the Owari faction, the Ukita Hideya is resistant, and even a little afraid, in his eyes, Kato Kiyomasa, Fukushima Masanori, Kato Yoshiaki These daimyos are reckless people, and they will never reason with themselves, and they and Ishida Mitsunari are in trouble, and helping Ishida Mitsunari speak at this time is not only a loss, but also a lack of interest in themselves. Of course, Ishida Mitsunari can balance Hideho to a certain extent, but how easy is it to keep him?

"What Dan Zheng said is reasonable, but he has not thought it through." Ukita blushed and replied in shame.

"Your Highness, it's almost dawn, do you have any other questions?" Maeda Toshimasa pretended to be very impatient, and took the opportunity to express his closeness to Hideho: "You have also seen it, the right house you think of is all considered, according to the following opinion, let's settle it like this, we also let the right house have a good rest, and he will meet the young master later." ”

"That being said, but ...... There is still something unclear below. Ukita Hideya also knows that he has questioned and even made things difficult for Hideho twice in a row, and raising questions at this time will inevitably cause dissatisfaction between Hideho and the two people present, but he still has to say what he thinks in his heart, not for anything else, at this moment, he is the only one who can help Hideyori fight for benefits.

"Your Highness, please speak." Hideho still spoke in an easy-going tone, but he was very unhappy in his heart, he didn't expect that the Ukita Hideya would make trouble with him several times in this matter, although it was resolved by himself, but this feeling was very unpleasant, "It seems that the joint meeting of the elder must be canceled." ”

"I hurriedly browsed this plan, and found that several group leaders such as Shohisa Hayami, Hideren Matsuura, Ito Nagashi, and Gunsoho were all transferred to other places, and I don't know how the right government thought about it? They are the leaders of the Seven Hands Group appointed by Taiko, and this time the Osaka riots have made a great contribution, and if they are released to Hokuriku, I am afraid that it will attract tongues......," Ukita Hideya said.

As Ukita Hideya said, in the plan, Hayami Morihisa was transferred from 74,000 koku in Echichu to 80,000 koku in Shinano, Ito Nagami was transferred from 30,000 koku in Echichu to 50,000 koku in Kaga, Hideshi Matsuura was transferred from 28,000 koku in Echichu to Kaga 37,000 koku, and Komunho was transferred from 21,000 koku in Noto to 30,000 koku in Kaga.

Before, although the above four people said that they knew how to do it in Etchu and Noto, they never left Osaka, and they all handed it over to their retainers. Now, Hideho has transferred them to the fiefdom and officially asked them to go to the fiefdom, which deprives them of their identity as the head of the seven-hand group in disguise, and in this regard, Ukita Hideya does not dare not remain vigilant.
