Kyoto.

Imperial Palace.

Emperor Gonara is fifty-eight years old this year, and his body is getting weaker and weaker as he gets older.

When I got up in the morning, I drank half a bowl of rice porridge with kimchi, and before Emperor Nara could put the bowl down, a minister entered the dormitory.

"Your Majesty, the Tsugawa Right Guard General Hall has entered the city."

Emperor Hou Nara made a movement in his hand, and then reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said, "I haven't seen you for a few years, and today I finally waited for the Tsugawa family to go to Luo!" Let the general of the right guard enter the palace as soon as he enters the city, and I want to see him! ”

"Hah!"

The whole of Kyoto has now been taken over by the Tsugawa family's army, and tens of thousands of troops have surrounded Kyoto.

Groups of well-clad samurai and ashigaru weaved through the streets, and from time to time there were teams escorting prisoners and heads in and out, and there was not a single person in the whole of Kyoto except for the Tsugawa family's Ashigaru.

In order to ensure the safety of Tsugawa Soji, the whole of Kyoto has been put under martial law.

Tsugawa Soji didn't want to go to Shangluo with all his efforts, and he was killed by someone just after entering the city. In history, Oda Nobunaga was mixed like that, but he was still killed by Akechi Mitsuhide, which led to the destruction of the Oda family's foundation. Tsugawa Soji didn't want to let his efforts in Shangluo be wasted because of his own little negligence.

"General, don't come unharmed!" Outside the Imperial Palace, Tsugawa Soji met Ashikaga Yoshito, who had been waiting here for a long time.

Ashikaga Yoshito entered the city before Tsugawa Soji, and after the public did something in Kyoto to expel Miyoshi Minoru from Kyoto, Ashikaga Yoshito had already entered Kyoto.

"The right guard general's hall, you can be regarded as looking forward to it!" Ashikaga Yoshito stepped forward excitedly and shook the hand of Tsugawa Soji, and the dignified general Seiyi actually used an honorific title for Tsugawa Soji, which is also a big joke in the world.

However, it also reflects the helplessness and hesitation of Ashikaga Yoshito at this time.

On the one hand, Ashikaga Yoshito is overjoyed that he can return to Kyoto. On the other hand, he was afraid that Soji Tsugawa would become the next Miyoshi Chokei and put himself in danger, so Ashikaga Yoshito at this time was completely a contradiction.

"Your Excellency, please wait a moment, Your Majesty summons, please allow you to have a long talk with Your Majesty after the Hajj, Your Majesty!" After speaking, Tsugawa Soji turned his head and walked over the steps on the side, showing some indifference.

A look of unnaturalness flashed on Ashikaga Yoshito's face, but he quickly returned to his original state, "I'll go to the Imperial Palace to wait for Tsugawa Hall." ”

......

The residence of Emperor Go-Nara is not large, and it is far from the imperial palace of my Daitendai Empire. The road was full of ruins, and there was no decent palace to be found. Under the leadership of the two chamberlains, after passing through the two three palace gates one after another, Tsugawa Soji was taken outside a palace.

It is said to be a palace, but it is actually a larger thatched house.

The wall is compacted with soil, surrounded by bamboo, and then coated with vermilion lacquer, barely able to shelter from the wind and rain.

Emperor Nara is getting worse and worse, and Tsugawa Soji remembers that when he came to Beijing two years ago, Emperor Nara lived in a palace that was still a serious one.

"Tsugawa Right Guard General Hall has arrived!" As Tsugawa Soji walked into the hall, the musicians on the side hurriedly chanted.

"Qing has worked hard all the way, please take a seat."

Emperor Go-Nara did not let people speak on his behalf, but chose to communicate directly with Tsugawa Soji, which was the most intimate expression.

"I'm fortunate to be summoned by His Majesty, I don't know what to order?" Soji Tsugawa found a place to kneel and sat down, and then asked with a calm face.

"I heard that the Right Guard General defeated Miyoshi Chikuzen and Imagawa Jibu Daisuke one after another, so I asked the Right Guard General how he would control the near territories next? How do you view the relationship between the imperial court and the shogunate? The voice of Emperor Go-Nara came from behind the gauze tent.

Tsugawa Soji replied without thinking, "The near few places are the throat of the world, and although Miyoshi and Hosokawa controlled them in the past, their ability is not enough to keep the peace of the near ones." As a result, Kyoto was subjected to many wars, the people were slaughtered, and the imperial family was repeatedly humiliated! ”

"The Imoto family was ordered by His Majesty and the general to go to Luo, and defeated Miyoshi, Imagawa and other non-ministers in a row, and was able to clean up Kyoto and Qingki! Next, he tried his best to exterminate Miyoshi and Imagawa's remnants and maintain law and order in Kinai. ”

"In addition, Kyoto and the Imperial Palace will be renovated, and money and grain will be allocated for the imperial court's use!"

"After the stability of Jinai is restored, we will continue to coordinate the righteous teachers to sweep away the evil spirits, and return peace to the world as soon as possible!" After saying that, Tsugawa Soji bowed to Emperor Go-Nara, and then sat back down.

"Is the world peaceful?" Emperor Hou Nara suddenly aggravated his tone, "Then the right guard general is willing to help me reopen the government?" ”

Watt?

Soji Tsugawa was still drowsy, but when he heard Emperor Gonara's words, he was not calm for a moment.

Emperor Hou Nara is deposing the shogunate?

Then I'm a fart!

Soji Tsugawa was speechless, I'm afraid this thing hasn't woken up yet, right?

Abolishing the shogunate and returning the government to the emperor was the long-cherished wish of successive emperors. But Soharu Tsugawa wouldn't be stupid enough to do such a thing.

Let's not say that Soji Tsugawa has no friendship with Emperor Nara at all, even if there is, it is impossible, even if Emperor Nara gives his wife and daughter to me!

"Your Majesty must be tired, please take care of your health and rest, and come back next day to pay your respects!" Soji Tsugawa got up and left without saying a word, and there was no need to waste time with this kind of puppet retarded.

"Zhongshan Quanda said, take care of Your Majesty!" Walking to the front of the hall, Soji Tsugawa turned his head and said to Nakayama who was kneeling on the ground.

Nakayama was captured at Kannonji Castle, and after being sent to Kyoto, he knelt and licked Tsugawa Soji in various ways. After all, Nakayama was the minister of Kyoto, and it was naturally impossible for Tsugawa Soji to put him to death, so he put him back.

Now that the whole of Kyoto and Kinai were under the control of Tsugawa Soji, it was only natural that a smart person like Takashi Nakayama knew what to do.

"Tsugawaden, rest assured, I... I got it below. ”

Looking at the back of Soji Tsugawa leaving, the only glimmer of hope in Emperor Go-Nara's eyes was completely shattered.

"Sure enough, are all the crows in the world generally black?" Behind the gauze tent, Emperor Nara's slightly hoarse voice sounded again.

......

Walking out of the Imperial Palace, Soharu Tsugawa went directly to Ichijo Residence.

Although Ichijo Bodori went to Tosa, the Kyoto Ichijo family remained in Kyoto.

The current head of the Ichijo family is the second son of Ichijo Fangtong, Ichichi Neiji, who is only seven years old this year, but has been reappointed as the fifth son.

"I've seen my brother!"

Ichijo Botsuri is now Yukihime's adoptive father, so Ichijo Neki and Soji Tsugawa are indeed "righteous brothers" relationship.

"No need to be polite! This time, I have to borrow some time here. Soji Tsugawa said with a smile.

"Although my brother lives, I have my brother here, and I am very down-to-earth in my heart!"

"But I don't know how my father-in-law is doing?"

"My father just sent a letter yesterday, saying that my father had united with the people of Iyo and Tosa to form a group, and now he was marching towards Sanuki. My father asked my brother to send a team of teachers to respond, so that Sanki, Awa and other places can turn their hands around! Ichijo said excitedly.

Soji Tsugawa didn't know about Shikoku before, and his attention was all on Kyoto. Now when I heard that a house pass was actually doing something in Shikoku, I suddenly felt a little surprised.

I've met a lot of pig teammates in this life, but I didn't expect that today finally came a god assist!
