Chapter 405: A Visit to Enryakuji Temple
"Subordinates, see the lord!" The temple shrine is headed by Maeda Genei at the gate of Enryakuji Temple to greet Hosokawa Nobumoto.
"Well, you're doing a good job, and the rebuilding of Enryakuji seems to be going well." Hosokawa Nobumoto looked at Enryakuji Temple in front of him, which had been basically completed, and it would not be long before it became popular, and it would be possible to regain its glorious moment.
"Yes, the lord praised it, and his subordinates will take you in to have a look." Gen Maeda respectfully led the way and admired the pagoda and temple houses that had been renovated.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Hosokawa Nobumoto stopped and came to a courtyard: Nanguang Fang, not far away there was a monk with his back to him, how similar his back was.
"Mitsu-so!?" Hosokawa Nobumoto shouted, and walked over quickly, his hands trembling slightly, reflecting the excitement in his heart.
"Amitabha!" The monk turned around, this face is not who else can be Wise Mitsuhide! But...
"The poor monk's law is called Tianhai, donor, you have recognized the wrong person." Tianhai clasped his hands together and said slowly.
"Impossible! You..."Hosokawa Nobumoto was about to say something, but was stopped by Kokai with his hand.
"The poor monk was born in Onuma County, Michinoku Province, and was a member of the Ashina clan, and was ordained by the Ryukoji Temple of Michishuyama. The poor monk you mentioned has also heard of it, and he is a very remarkable person, and the poor monk is also quite respected. Tianhai naturally told his life experience.
"Oh, I see, I was reckless, I recognized the wrong person, I hope the master will forgive me!" Hosokawa Nobugen thought that he should have seen things and thought about people, and he just misunderstood, but these two people are really similar.
"Amitabha, since meeting is fate, why don't you go to the poor monk's meditation room to drink a cup of hot tea and relieve the cold." Tianhai clasped his hands together again and recited the Buddha's name.
"Okay, then there's Master Lao, Jiuxiu, come with me." Hosokawa Nobumoto readily accepted the invitation and brought Matsunaga with him, whose gaze never left this Tianhai, with a hint of doubt between his eyebrows.
*************
"Please!"
"Master, please!" Everyone sat down, and Hosokawa Nobumoto began to look at the Zen room.
The Zen room is small and can accommodate several people, with an elegant, simple layout without a hint of luxury accessories. The shrine in the position of Kaiyang, the first place is dedicated to the medicine master, there is a pair of Zen books on the left and right, there is only one "Zen" word on the left, and the right side is the word "no self".
The two sides of the east and west walls are decorated with two family crests, one of which is "Marunouchi two lead two", which is the family crest of the Ashikaga clan. But this Tenkai monk is obviously not from the Ashikaga clan, and it should be a lower gift pattern (the high position gives the lower position his own family crest, as recognition or reward, which is an honor for the lower position).
The other is the "Wheel Treasure Pattern", which is shaped like a ship's rudder, which is the family crest of the Miyake family in Mikawa Province. The family crest is the same as the surname, and it is generally not used to have nothing to do with oneself, and at least two family crests that have nothing to do with one's own origin are used, even if Tianhai is a high-ranking monk, he cannot use it like this.
Just when Hosokawa Nobumoto was puzzled, Tianhai took out the famous dish of this tea tasting, "Narashiba Shoulder Punch", and began to brew black tea.
"This is..."Hosokawa Nobumoto's eyes narrowed, "Nararaba shoulder chong" belongs to the Han shoulder tea vessel, because of its lid and tea into the degree of tightness, in line with the Japanese "tea ceremony of the ancestral village pearl proposed by the mystery, the glaze is in line with wabi-sabi, the production process is in line with the mourning, is one of the three shoulders in the world. But this tea vessel... It's the love of Akechi Mitsuhide!
"Yagata-sama! Please use tea! Tianhai just mixed a bowl of tea, held the bowl with the palm of his left hand, held the edge of the bowl with five fingers of his right hand, and sent it to Hosokawa Nobumoto.
"Thank you." Hosokawa Nobumoto took the tea bowl with both hands, which was a bowl of stomach-warming black tea, gently turned the tea bowl, turned the tea bowl one and a half times, and left the front of the tea bowl, then took a shallow sip and tasted it.
"Good tea!" Hosokawa Nobumoto exclaimed, then wiped the corner of his mouth with his thumb, but turned the bowl back to the front and handed it to Matsunaga Shu on the side.
Matsunaga Shu also tasted the tea respectfully, couldn't help but admire, and after handing it back to Tianhai, he immediately asked, "Isn't this Ashikaga two leading two?" I remember that the family crest of the Ashina clan is three leads and two in the pill. ”
Tianhai frowned, talking about politics while drinking tea, which is very annoying. On the other hand, Matsunaga Xiu looks indifferent, he is also a tea ceremony expert, and he should know this rule.
Hosokawa Nobumoto was secretly grateful, and Matsunaga Shu asked the doubts in his heart for him and became a villain for him.
"Isn't it just a step away... It doesn't matter. Tianhai's sentence is obviously not the word, this difference is complete, but it is completely two concepts, but it is a world of difference.
"What about this Miyake family pattern? By the way, I remember the eldest son-in-law of Akira Hinata Mamoru Hideman, as if... Formerly known as Miyake Yaheiji. As soon as Matsunaga Xiu's words came out, Tianhai's hand boiling tea couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Is that so?" The first time Hosokawa Nobugen heard about it, because the Akechi family had always said that Akechi was full of Mitsuhide's uncle: the son of Akechi Mitsuyasu.
"Yes or no, I don't know... By the way, I don't know if Master Tianhai knows? Matsunaga Shu stared straight at Tianhai and asked rhetorically.
"Poor monk... I don't know..."Tianhai continued to make tea without changing his face.
"Humph!" Matsunaga Xiu snorted coldly, the reason why he knew about this secret matter was actually revealed by the Guoxin Layman, members like them who joined the organization all explained their eight generations of ancestors cleanly.
"Come on, come on... Tea tasting, tea tasting, it's really bad. Seeing that the atmosphere was a little awkward, Hosokawa Nobumoto pulled back the tea ceremony. Since Tianhai is reluctant to say anything, there must be his troubles.
"Lord Yagatata, speaking of the Miyake family pattern, the poor monk can be regarded as having a relationship with Xiuman, but it's a pity... He's long gone... However, he left two sons... Wish... You can take it in. Tenkai faced Hosokawa Nobumoto and finally relented.
When Hosokawa Nobumoto heard that Jixiu was dead, he knew in his heart that the rotten and deformed head of Mitsuhide back then was only afraid that it was...
Tianhai immediately clapped his palms, and two young children came in: "This is Xiuman's grandson and Heiji, and the second boy Kogoro, they will be in the future... The Miyake family will be inherited. ”
"What about the wise ones?" Hosokawa Nobumoto couldn't help but ask, there is no wise bellflower family crest here, it seems to be...
"Isn't there a ten-soldier?" Tianhai blurted out, and the scene suddenly fell silent. Ten soldiers are the concubines that Akechi Mitsuhide sent to the Hosokawa family.
"The Miyake Wheel Treasure Pattern is inherited by Yoheiji, but what about Kogoro?" It was Matsunaga Shu who broke the deadlock.
"Hehe... I've thought about this for a long time.,Look,This is the new combination of bellflower pattern.,Kogoro inherited it later.。 Tianhai took out a drawing, and Matsunaga Shu praised it again and again.
"It's!" When Hosokawa Nobumoto saw it, he was stunned. This new family crest is a square and a diamond cross combination, with a bellflower in the center.
This is the family crest of Ryoma Sakamoto, it turns out that he is a descendant of the second son of Aketohide Mitsumitsu, and Sakamoto is taken from Sakamoto Castle.
