Chapter 240 Virtue is not established
For this result, whether it was the Wenchen faction headed by Ishida Mitsunari or the boudoir led by the Northern Masasao, they all expressed their approval or acquiescence, and there was only one person, that is, Tokugawa Ieyasu, who was furious and asked in a tough tone: "After committing such a great crime, you can still endanger more than 600,000 stone Zhixing, how do you ask us to do it in the future?" ”
Hideho had expected Tokugawa Ieyasu to speak out against it, but he didn't expect it to be so strong, "It seems that he won't give up until the Maeda family is completely destroyed," Hidebo thought
"The inner government also admitted that the major general's rebellion this time has nothing to do with Da Nayan, so what's wrong?"
Tokugawa Ieyasu replied disapplausively: "The old man is saying that it has nothing to do with the Great Nayan, but after all, the Major General is the son-in-law of the Maeda family and the future governor of the family, so the knowledge and deeds of the Great Nayan are also his, so in this way, the land of Shinkawa Higashi-Kaga should also be reduced, right?" ”
"The sister-in-law is true, but the future family governor..." Xiubao paused for a moment and said slowly: "This can't be nonsense."
"What do you mean by that?" Tokugawa Ieyasu asked vigilantly
Xiubao replied casually: "It's very simple, although the major general is a son-in-law, it is not necessarily the family governor Ai who is still alive and well, who is the family governor of the Maeda family, you say yes, His Royal Highness the Great Nayan?" ”
Maeda Toshiya is a smart person, understand what Hideho means, as long as Maeda Toshicho is not the governor, then that part of his Li family's territory will not be able to move, therefore, the Rika Lisuo nodded and said: "Youfu is right, the old man doesn't have only one son, the Rimasa Sape Chiyo Inu Chiyo and the newborn Otomatsu Maru are all good children, the old man has not yet decided who will inherit the family governor, does His Royal Highness the Inner Mansion want to make the decision for the old man?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone present laughed, and from time to time someone whispered, laughing at Ieyasu for being nosy and daring to meddle in the family affairs of the Maeda family, which is also the fifth elder
Tokugawa Ieyasu's face turned red and he retorted: "Since ancient times, the eldest son has been appointed as the governor of the family, why do you want to use strong words to escape responsibility? ”
"Strong words?" The Maeda Toshiya also became active with the support of everyone: "In this way, Major General Yuuki can also inherit the Tokugawa family?" ”
"How is this possible!" Tokugawa Ieyasu waved his sleeves angrily, and looked at Maeda Toshiya angrily: "The major general has already passed on to the Yuuki family, how can he inherit the family business?" And Major General Echichu is different, he is your son-in-law, how can you see that your sister-in-law does not stand, but sets up your concubine as the family governor, you do this, it will do all kinds of harm to the Maeda family and no benefit."
Maeda Toshiya couldn't help laughing when he heard it: "The difference between what the inner government said, the major general is misbehaving, perverse, the old man has long had the intention of abolishing the establishment, but he has not discussed it with his wife, since he has put it forward today, the old man will make it clear, my Maeda Toshi family is from a humble background, and I was the second in the family thanks to Nobunaga's heavy weapon to replace my brother Toshihisa to become the governor of the Maeda family, since then, the Li family has felt that the position of the governor should be inherited by the sage rather than the son-in-law, if the son-in-law is outstanding and lives up to the trust, it is no different; If not, or if you are not expected to be mediocre, then how can you entrust your family business with peace of mind? ”
"It is not easy for the Li family to follow Taige's expedition to the east and west to seek a million stones, how can they pass on the family business to him at will just because Li Chang is the eldest son? The old man himself is only the second son, how can he be imprisoned by these red tapes? To tell the truth, as early as when Taige died, the old man intended to set up his second son Li Zheng as the governor of the family, but considering that the world is not very stable, he did not announce it to the public for a long time Today, the old man just took this opportunity to discuss with his wife, I don't know if his wife agrees? ”
Ah Song and Kitasho are both resolute and resourceful women, at this moment, how can they not understand the meaning of Maeda Toshiya's words?
"What His Royal Highness said is very true, although the concubine pampered Li Chang, but in terms of character and talent, Li Zheng is far better than his brother, and the concubine should not interfere in the matter of establishing a family governor, and now His Royal Highness has put it forward, the concubine has to tell the truth: in all fairness, Li Zheng is more suitable to take on the burden of the Maeda family, as for Li Chang, I just want to have one or two thousand stone to make a living in the future, and I hope that His Royal Highness can tell Li Zheng for the concubine."
"I'm afraid this won't work," Maeda Toshiie scratched his head and replied, "Richo must be exiled, how can he obtain more than 10,000 stones?" The old man implored the right house and the lords to sell their faces, don't set up the penal colony of the governor too bitterly, and can guarantee that he can eat three meals of rice a month, and the old man will be satisfied" After that, the Maeda Toshiya bowed deeply to the head of the Xiu Turtle, and an old man who was close to the sixtieth year was so groveling, which really moved everyone present, and many daimyo whispered to Xiubao and the Hokumasao to agree to the Li family's request, as if it was to fulfill his last wish
But Tokugawa Ieyasu was not so easily moved by the Maeda Toshiya couple, he looked at this bitter plan, and said with a sneer: "The Li family, the Li family, in order to save the family business, I actually gave up the sister-in-law who had worked hard to cultivate, and my Ieyasu really underestimated you."
Thinking of this, he relentlessly said to Hideho and Kitamasa: "Even so, that can't make Lizheng the governor of the family, he is also a criminal minister, and he has to be cautious for three years, who will take care of the Maeda family during these three years?" ”
"What does this mean? Do you think that Da Nayan will not live for three years?! Xiu Bao asked coldly
"It's Ainefu, your words are too vicious, Da Nayan's body is tough, let alone three years, thirty years is no problem" Hokamasao seized the opportunity and stabbed Tokugawa Ieyasu
The rest of the daimyo also coaxed, saying that Ieyasu had long hoped that the Li family would die, so as to concentrate the power of the five elders in his own hands, Ishida Mitsunari also mixed in: "It is a crime to be able to ascend to the guard, but the land has been cut down, and people must be cautious behind closed doors, and the punishment that should have been given, who is appointed as the governor of the family is the internal affairs of the Maeda family, how can we interfere?" As long as Da Nayan is in good health, he is the governor of the family, and the Maeda family is naturally taken care of by him, and the inner government does not need to worry about it."
In the face of the unanimous questioning and ridicule, Tokugawa Ieyasu was annoyed and ashamed, took a heavy breath, and roared: "That's it, since you don't care, what can Ieyasu say, then listen to the right government and the Hokumasasho, the knowledge and action of the six hundred and forty thousand stones of the three kingdoms and five counties of the Hokuriku family of the Maeda family, but the five elders feel ......."
"What's there to say about this," Xiubao interrupted, "Since it has nothing to do with Da Nayan, then the position of the eldest is still played by Da Nayan, does this still need to be discussed?" ”
"How can you still be the elder after committing such a big crime?!" Tokugawa Ieyasu was almost furious
"It's all said that it has nothing to do with Da Nayan, what's wrong with him staying in office?" In the face of Ieyasu's reluctance, the North Shosho was also annoyed: "Da Nayan and the inner government are colleagues, how can you be so entangled, okay, if you have no opinion, the matter of punishment will be discussed here, and then, well, it's time to discuss how to reward the meritorious heroes" to be continued
ps: Today I told them about Japan's Warring States, and there were really few who were interested
