The chief of Xiyuan Temple is already drunk, the so-called wine is not drunk, everyone is drunk, even if the retainers of the Tsugawa family have no longer toasted, but the chief of the Saiyuan Temple has been beaten down by the endless variety of "showing off wealth" of the Tsugawa family.

Heaven can see mercy!

As a poor and frightened minister of Kyoto, all he thought about all day was how to deduct some money from these daimyo to "subsidize the family" and improve the life of His Majesty the same poor emperor by the way. But suddenly seeing the Tsugawa family's drinking banquet with such a "local tyrant" atmosphere, the head of Xiyuan Temple even began to doubt life.

"Xiyuan Temple Hall is not well?" Hosokawa Naomoto, who was sitting behind the head of the Saion Temple, was keenly aware of the abnormality of the head of the Saion Temple, and then asked with a concerned face.

The head of Xiyuan Temple shook his head, then lowered his head and drank the sullen wine, and was no longer ready to pay attention to what happened before.

However, the chief of Xiyuan Temple wanted to escape, but there were always people who couldn't get along with him.

"Haha! Xiyuan Temple, the adult is from the Kyoto Minister, presumably the knowledge must not be annoying, can this thing be evaluated by the Xiyuan Temple? Just when the chief of Xiyuan Temple was sad, a slightly jumping voice suddenly sounded in the ears of the chief of Xiyuan Temple.

The chief of Saionji raised his head with a displeased face and was about to express his dissatisfaction, but when the note written in the hand of the samurai in front of him met the eyes of the chief of Saionji and saw the words written on it, the chief of Saionji cried.

"Actually... Unexpectedly.... It turned out to be the calligraphy of the sage Wang Xizhi of the Ming Kingdom? Copying is also a rare thing, this... What a blessing this adult has! Saying that, the chief of Xiyuan Temple endured a pain in his heart, and glanced his head to the side ruthlessly!

I can't stand it! The Jinchuan family has money, why are you hiding it, why do you have nothing to do to fight people? Could it be that I, the head of Xiyuan Temple, have never seen a big scene?

"What books and scripts are useless things, and what good will they do me? It's better to change the knife in hand! Nagano Masafang digged his nostrils with a look of loss and said with a little disgust.

"You! You! You can't teach your children! When the chief of Xiyuan Temple heard that Wang Xizhi, who was "highly respected" by himself, he actually became a useless thing in the mouth of the samurai of the Tsugawa family in front of him? If it weren't for the fact that he was obviously not the opponent of the person in front of him, the prince of Xiyuan Temple would want to rush up and compete with him.

"What? What do you think of this in the temple of Xiyuan Temple? Looking at the head of Saionji in front of him, Nagano Masabo hurriedly asked tentatively.

Hearing Nagano Masa's words, the head of Saionji suddenly palpitated, "This is to give this thing to me?" ”

"Dare to ask what this lord means by this?" The chief of Xiyuan Temple suppressed the excitement in his heart, pretending to be light and light, and said slowly.

Nagano Masabo hurriedly said, "Oh, I'm thinking about it, if the Xiyuan Temple likes this thing but doesn't draw it, I will definitely be sad in my heart, so it's better to give this thing to the adults." ”

"It's just that the adult is the minister of Kyoto, and a mere pair of calligraphy is not enough to get the eyes of the adult, so let's take it to collect it myself. It's rude! With that, Nagano Masabo returned to his position without looking back.

I rub!

The chief of Xiyuan Temple really wants to scold! Who says I can't take a fancy to it? Who says it can't get into my eyes?

The chief of Xiyuan Temple is a person who loves calligraphy very much, and Wang Xizhi's calligraphy is precisely the calligraphy that the prince of Xiyuan Temple admires the most. It's just that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy works are rare even in the Ming Kingdom across the sea, let alone RB. Today, I finally saw Wang Xizhi's sticker at Jinchuan's house, although it was only a copy version, but it was enough to make the chief of Xiyuan Temple excited.

But if you like it, you like it, and the head of Xiyuan Temple can't lower your posture to ask a retainer of the Tsugawa family, right? What's more, as soon as Nagano Zhengfang came, he praised the chief of Xiyuan Temple as a thief, and he was well-informed and from the minister's background, could it be that the chief of Xiyuan Temple still licked his face and said, "I'm just a poor B minister, I don't have any money, give me the notebook quickly......"

Just when the head of Xiyuan Temple looked embarrassed, Tsugawa Soji, who was sitting on the main seat, secretly glanced at the wise ten guards behind him, who immediately understood, and then stepped forward and said, "I have heard for a long time that Xiyuan Temple is very good at calligraphy, and today is a good day, why don't you ask Xiyuan Temple Hall to show your talents for your family, so that I and other people in the countryside can admire the demeanor of the Kyoto Minister?" ”

The words of the wise ten guards were very appropriate to disintegrate the embarrassment of the chief of Xiyuan Temple at this moment, seeing that the wise ten guards threw a step to themselves, the chief of Xiyuan Temple hurriedly rolled down the slope and said, "I only know a little bit about it, but since you adults have such a nature, then I have no choice but to be ugly!" ”

Saying that, the wise Shibei asked people to bring up all the pen, ink, paper and inkstones that had been prepared, and after the head of Xiyuan Temple brewed for a while, he immediately wrote and wrote, "I came here, and the Mengjin Chuan Hall treated each other with great courtesy, and only used this word as a congratulatory gift to congratulate the Jinchuan family on its long-term martial arts!" ”

As he spoke, the chief of Xiyuan Temple had stopped writing.

Soji Tsugawa hurriedly stepped forward to take a look, and the chief of Xiyuan Temple wrote the eight characters of "Xianbei Jinchuan Wuyun Prosperity". I have to say that the handwriting written by the head of Xiyuan Temple is indeed quite good, at least Tsugawa Soji, a layman, looks a little interesting.

So under the script that had been arranged long ago, a bunch of Tsugawa family retainers, including Tsugawa Soji, suddenly let out bursts of admiration.

"Awesome! It is worthy of being the Lord of Xiyuan Temple, the words of the inscription are strong, and they are done in one go, according to the following opinion, even if they are compared with Wang Xizhi, it is not much better. ”

"Where is it, the word Xiyuan Temple Hall is naturally a little deficient compared to the Book of Saints, but it is not much worse!"

"Not bad! Today finally let me wait to see the demeanor of the Minister of Kyoto, I really have no regrets even if I die! ”

“......”

Hearing the praise of the retainers of the Tsugawa family in his ears, the head of Saionji swept away his previous depression, and couldn't help but think a little smugly, "Hmph! A group of country people, even if they have money? Isn't it just as unheard? ”

In fact, everything that happened today was arranged by Soji Tsugawa! Which retainer is in charge of saying anything today has been "rehearsed" a long time ago, the purpose is to show the strength of the Tsugawa family to the chief of Xiyuan Temple, and at the same time, to slightly compliment the chief of Xiyuan Temple, so as not to make the chief of Xiyuan Temple "too inferior". However, the red envelopes drawn by everyone were not fake, everything depended on luck, which was indeed a little unlucky for the head of Xiyuan Temple.

Judging by the results so far, it is clear that the effect is significant!

......

The drinking feast in Ueno Castle continued, and the retainers were not lively with each other.

At the same time, in the castle town of Ueno Castle, seven or eight men dressed in shabby samurai uniforms looked at everything in Ueno Castle with a blistered face, and bursts of admiration came out of their mouths from time to time.

An elderly samurai at the head looked at the towering castle tower in the direction of Mt. Ueno and couldn't help but speak, "Is this the territory of the Senkita Tsugawa family?" ”
