Inside the courtyard of Hiyoshi Shrine.

When a group of people came forward to congratulate Ashikaga Yoshito, Ashikaga Yoshiharu and his son, who were in a good mood, also started a wave of costless 'rewards'.

First of all, the hexagonal Dinglai took the trouble to manage the Yuan Costume Ceremony and the succession ceremony, and was given the status of a deacon of the political office.

The deacon of the government office is in charge of the shogunate's finances, and it is obvious that Ashikaga Yoshiharu has taken Rokkaku Joyori as a long-term meal ticket, and is ready to stay in Omi. Although he was a little dissatisfied with this, he could only suffer this dumb loss, because he needed to do something indescribable in the name of the general.

And for those who came to participate in the ceremony, as well as other forces that sent envoys, Ashikaga Yoshiharu also gave some gifts in return. If Ashikaga Yoshiharu was a little reluctant before, but after the Tsugawa family offered so many things, Ashikaga Yoshiharu rarely became a rich man.

And after all the rewards were announced, everyone in the courtyard turned their eyes to Tsugawa Soji who was sitting in the corner, and they were very curious about what kind of reward Tsugawa Soji would receive for giving such a huge amount of money!

And Ashikaga Yoshito lived up to expectations, stood up directly, and loudly announced, "I was in charge of the authority of the shogunate at the beginning, and I still need your dedicated assistance in the future, especially the hexagonal bullet, and please continue to serve the shogunate." When my father and I can return to Kyoto one day, we will treat each other with fatherly courtesy! ”

"As for Tsugawa Dewa, I am very touched that he came all the way from the north and offered such a generous gift! He canonized Tsugawa Dewa as the royal companion, and gave a knife handle, allowing the Tsugawa family to use my Ashikaga family paulownia pattern, as a reward! ”

Saying wow, Ashikaga Yoshito set his eyes on Tsugawa Soji and waited for Tsugawa Soji to react.

And after listening to Ashikaga Yoshito's words, Tsugawa Soji was completely stunned!

What is this special operation? Is Lao Tzu's money made of paper, and tens of thousands of things are exchanged for such a ghost thing?

What the hell is the Royal Companion?

The Imperial Companion was not a position in the shogunate organization, but was an honorary title conferred on a specific daimyō. Generally, when a shogun is driving a shrine or temple or other daimyo domain, a person who has the position of imperial companion is eligible to accompany him.

During the Warring States Period, the Imperial Companion became a decoration used by hillbilly daimyo to decorate the façade, but anyone with a little spare money could get one to play! This is the same as the two rotten street goods of the imperial court official repair doctor and Zuojing doctor, which are simply flooded garbage!

Too knife? Is Lao Tzu Tsugawa Soji still lacking a sword?

Permission to use the Kiulowni pattern of the Ashikaga shogun's house? The emperor's son is not rare, let alone you are an outdated general?

Soji Tsugawa finally knows why Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Ashikaga Yoshiaki father and son are so bad, with this kind of IQ and political ability, it is a ghost not to be played to death.

It can be said that Tsukawa Soji's actions today are completely deliberate to be a yellow cover, just to send money to the shogunate! But this money is sent back, it doesn't mean that it is given away in vain! Your Ashikaga family has taken a benefit, and you have to show it a little?

If Lao Tzu is just here to give a congratulatory gift, as for sending tens of thousands of things?

Where is the Tsugawa family's territory? Mutsu, Dewa! I'm sending these, don't you just want you Ashikaga Yoshiharu to give me something like the Hashu Quest and the Mutsu Quest, so that the Tsugawa family can manage the Ou region in a proper name? No matter how bad it is, why don't you give me a dewa guardian Mutsu Guardian or something, why don't you give me a royal companion, Tsugawa Soji really wants to pull out a knife and cut people!

After all, Ashikaga Yoshito is young and can understand, but Ashikaga Yoshiharu can't forgive.

Just as Tsugawa Soharu decided to leave the table angrily, a samurai behind Ashikaga Yoshiharu saw that Tsugawa Soharu's face was wrong. He hurriedly stood up and said loudly, "Lord Dewasuke, the reward that the Shogun just announced is just a brick throw. Lord De Hasuke has made such a lot of contributions, and his loyalty to the shogunate can be revealed, and he should not be able to think of what reward to give to a pillar of the samurai family like Lord De Hasuke, so please don't be impatient for a while! “

Let's not talk about it without getting angry, but Tsugawa Soji is quite interested in the samurai who suddenly spoke.

Judging from what this person just said, it is clear that this person is not a person who does nothing. I vaguely remember that among the people around Ashikaga Yoshiki (Fuji), there is Hosokawa Fujitaka who is a rare talent, but at this time he should be about the same age as Ashikaga Yoshiteru, and his age is not the same as the person in front of him.

Hearing the words of the samurai, Ashikaga Yoshiharu, who had fallen into the eyes of money, finally came to his senses, and while secretly scolding Ashikaga Yoshito's ignorance, he also hurriedly said, "Don't worry, if it weren't for the shohu to remind me, I almost forgot about it." Reward, and let me consult with my retainers before deciding how to reward you! ”

In fact, Ashikaga Yoshiharu was just full of thoughts on the gifts of the Tsugawa family, so he didn't pay much attention to it, and after being reminded by Kusunoki Masatora, he also reacted, trying to calm the emotions of Tsugawa Soji.

The retainer of the Ashikaga family who spoke before was named Kusunoki Masatora, and it is said that he was the queen of Kusunoki Masasari.

After listening to Ashikaga Yoshiharu's words, Tsugawa Soharu's face finally improved a little, but he quickly pretended to be disapprehensive and said slowly, "It's okay, the rewards are all the general's kindness, and I am already grateful in my heart, and I will definitely do my best for the shogunate and the shogun in the future, and then die!" ”

What was supposed to be a good event was almost collapsed by Ashikaga Yoshito, but fortunately, the retainers of the Ashikaga family were not all waste, and it was more or less able to save the face of the dignified general.

And Ashikaga Yoshito obviously realized that the reward he had just given seemed to be a little "less", so he had to set his eyes on Ashikaga Yoshiharu beside him. In fact, in Ashikaga Yoshito's heart, the reward just now is rich enough, and it can be said to be the glory of the samurai!

However, Ashikaga Yoshito obviously forgot that there is no glory in the Ashikaga family today, so basically no one is rare with the "glory" given by your Ashikaga family!

.......

"The Great Imperial Palace, although the reward of the general is not unavoidable, it's just that some medicines are wrong!" In the main hall of Hiyoshi Shrine, Rokkaku Joyori, as the "landlord", took Soji Tsugawa and others to Lake Biwa for a boat, while Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Kazuto discussed how to make up for the "damage" caused to Soji Tsugawa. ”

Ashikaga Yoshiharu nodded, "Then between Yier and the others, how should the shogunate reward Tsugawa Soji?" ”

"The territory of the Tsugawa family is in the land of Dewa Mutsu, so it stands to reason that they can be given the position of guardian of Dewa or Michinoku. However, I heard that the Mogami clan of Hashu had been defeated by the Tsugawa family, so it was not good to let Tsugawa Soji's position be lower than that of the Mogami clan. ”

"And the Oshu Detective Osaki clan is also married to the Tsugawa family, and the Mutsu guardian is the Date family, and the Date family also contributes money to the shogunate all year round, and if Tsugawa Soji is canonized as the Mutsu guardian, it will make the Date family dissatisfied. If the Date family cut off the annual donation, it would also be a loss for the shogunate. ”

"In my opinion, why don't you reopen the Mutsu Town Guard Mansion and let Tsugawa Soji serve as the general of the Town Guard Mansion?"
