Chapter 51: "Reservations" in the Shonai
Seeing that Yoshimitsu was so solemn, Xiubao hurriedly helped him up and asked in confusion: "What is it that bothered my father-in-law to make this great gift?" ”
Yoshimitsu especially likes to hear Hideho call him father-in-law, especially in public, and he can feel superior every time. Since he was his own person, Yoshimitsu had no scruples, he pointed to the screen next to Xiubao and asked, "Your Highness, can you know the three mountains on this screen?" ”
Although Hideho is from the 21st century, he doesn't know everything, let alone the mountains and rivers of Japan, and he nodded a little embarrassedly: "My son-in-law has lived in Kinai for a long time, and I am not very familiar with the mountains and rivers of Mutsu, so I ask my father-in-law to teach me." ”
Yoshimitsu looked at the screen with a sad face, and sighed sadly: "These three mountains are the three sacred mountains of Dewa, the Gassan Shrine of Mt. Gaskiyama, the Dewa Shrine of Mt. Haguro and the Mt. Yudenyama of Yudenyama are the holy places of the Dewa region, especially the Dewa Shrine, in which the worshipping Haguro Quan is now the protector of the Dewa country, but now all of them have fallen into the hands of the Uesugi family of Echigo. After speaking, he squeezed out a few tears, which immediately made Xiubao look sideways.
Hideho knows that Yoshimitsu is a drunkard and does not mean to drink, he is the famous fox of Yuzhou, why is he thinking about the people at this time? Besides, even if it is occupied by the Uesugi family, Jingsheng does not prohibit the people from worshipping, so what impact will this have on the people? He said this because he just wanted to gain control of the village place, which was the dream of several generations of governors of the Shogami family.
The Shonai area refers to Tagawa-gun and Satsukai-gun in Dewa, and is named after Shonai Castle in the territory. It is separated from Mogami Clan by Mt. Asahi and Dewa Sanzan to the east, Kambara-gun and Iwafune-gun of Echigo Province to the south (these two are also troublesome places, we will talk about them later), Yuri-gun controlled by Rijukozu to the north, and the Sea of Japan to the west. The terrain here is long and narrow, and there are no strong daimyos, and it has always been a place where the Mogami clan and the Uesugi clan have repeatedly fought over each other.
During the Tensho period, Mogami Yoshimitsu once captured the Oura Castle in the area, forced the city lord Muto Yoshixing to commit suicide, and almost drove the Uesugi family out of the village, who would have thought that Muto Yoshiko was actually the adoptive father of the Uesugi family's fierce general Honjo Fanchang, and Shichang immediately led the army to counterattack Shonnai, and conquered the two cities of Oura and Dahoji in one fell swoop, Yoshimitsu knew that he was invincible, and hurriedly transferred troops from his ability to reinforce, but at this time, Hideyoshi issued the "Kanto Oshu Nothing Incidental Order", Yoshimitsu had to withdraw his troops, and the Honjo area has completely fallen into the hands of the Uesugi family.
Thinking of this, Hideho probably knew Yoshimitsu's thoughts, and he also echoed helplessly: "Yes, since the Shonai area fell into the hands of the Uesugi family, these three mountains have been controlled by Honjo Fancho. "Therefore, I would like to ask Your Highness to be considerate of your feelings, and in any case, please convince Your Highness Taiko that after the Uesugi family is resealed, the place in the village will be given to the Mogami family." Yoshimitsu bowed his head sincerely.
Hideho replied with a look of embarrassment, "Although it is a request from my father-in-law, if there is no suitable reason, I'm afraid that even if I say it, Taiko will not agree." ”
"How could there be no suitable reason?" Yoshimitsu said solemnly, "Back then, the nine households rebelled, but the Mogami family didn't contribute less, and in the end, not only did they not get a reward, but they almost even got into Komahime's life, do you think Taiko should say something?" ”
Hearing Yoshimitsu say this, Hideho was interested, and asked rhetorically: "Then you took advantage of Xianbei to lead troops to attack the territory of the Onodera family without authorization, how should this account be calculated?" ”
Yoshimitsu didn't know how Hideho would know about this, although he couldn't take advantage of it because of the strategy of the Onodera family's military advisor Hachibai Michi, but after all, it was a violation of Hideyoshi's ban, and if it reached Hideyoshi's ears, not only would he not be able to get the territory of Shonai, but he might not even be able to keep the existing three counties. Thinking of this, Yoshimitsu once again habitually bowed down, still "solemn and sincere": "Since His Royal Highness knows, there is nothing to say in the village, so the matter in the village should not have been mentioned." ”
"Then what's going on," Xiubao sat up slightly, "You're my father-in-law, and this matter is on me, but please keep this matter in mind and never mention it to others." ”
"I understand," Yoshimitsu was overjoyed, and his body trembled a little with excitement, "Please rest assured, Your Highness will be tight-lipped about this matter, and your kindness to the supreme family will definitely be remembered in the future, and if there is a need for service in the future, even if it is to go to the soup, Yoshimitsu will not hesitate." ”
"This old fox is cheap," Xiubao sneered in his heart, "How can I say that it is nearly 200,000 stone of knowledge, how can it be exchanged for just a few words of flattery?" Hmph, I'm going to use you more in the future, but let's enjoy it now. ”
Hideho helped Yoshimitsu up and said helplessly: "When I set out from Koriyama, I thought that Aizu's matter would be solved soon, but who knew that there was so much chaos on the road, and it took more than a month unconsciously. ”
"Where are you, the birth of a child before the emperor is a big event, His Royal Highness wants to accompany him, and he will not keep it in the future, and immediately order someone to prepare the materials you need on the road, if the weather is good, you can go on the road early tomorrow morning." Yoshimitsu said respectfully, but some regret could still be seen in his eyes, presumably because of Komahime.
"Then thank you, father-in-law." After returning the salute, Hideho got up and walked to the door.
"Your Highness," it seemed that Yoshimitsu still couldn't help it, looked at Hideho with an embarrassed face, and squeaked: "The little foal Ji is still serving to your liking, right?" ”
Xiubao turned his face, Chong Yiguang smiled slightly, and nodded slightly: "It is estimated that by this time next year, I will be able to let my father-in-law hug my grandson." ”
When Yoshimitsu heard this, he immediately showed a look of satisfaction, and said excitedly: "This is very good, very good, please also ask Your Highness to pay more attention to your body, don't be too tired." ”
"Got it." Hideho walked out of the tea room with an embarrassed expression. The next morning, the temperature was still as cold as usual, but after three days of heavy snowfall, it miraculously became smaller, and although Yoshimitsu hoped that he would wait for the snow to stop completely before leaving, Hideho resolutely went on the road out of concern for Kikuhime and the child.
And at this time, Fushimi Castle Mitsunari Mansion.
"Are you sure?" Sancheng asked Changsheng with a serious face. "This is what the monk sent to Kumatsu Temple saw with his own eyes, and it is absolutely true." Changsheng replied affirmatively with his head down.
"Heaven help me," Mitsunari smiled coldly, "Then trouble His Highness Changsheng, I want to meet with Lady Sakurahime tomorrow." ”
