Chapter 222: Position of Interests and Consciousness
"Ahau. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Li Chang was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke,
"You should know my character, brother. Now that you've come here, you must have been mentally prepared. ”
After listening to Li Chang's words, Hao Ji did not flinch, but replied directly:
"Hmm. I know very well what my brother thinks. But I'm here for my daughter's happiness, so I'm not going to back down. ”
Looking at his sister's eyes, which were more determined than his younger self and didn't know how many times, Li Chang sighed.
"Your Excellency Date, I'm going to talk to Ah Hao about something, can I trouble you to go out for a while?"
Before he was ready to convince his sister, the cautious Richo let Hidejong leave for a while.
Although Xiuzong was a little anxious and reluctant, he still complied with Richo's wishes and left the room temporarily.
Xiuguang saw this scene in his eyes, thinking that he was still there anyway, and it didn't hurt for Xiuzong to go out temporarily.
"Ah Hao, I think...... There's something wrong with that. ”
After Xiuzong left, he didn't know that Xiuguang existed, so he began to persuade his sister with confidence.
"The matter between the Toyotomi family and the Tokugawa family, although we didn't say anything explicitly, we can all see it clearly, right? Now at this time, if you marry Hidetaka to a retainer of the Toyotomi family, if a war breaks out between the Toyotomi family and the Tokugawa family in the future, wouldn't it be dangerous for Hidetaka and you? ”
Toshinaga's sentence is very direct and explicit, and it basically identifies the future of the Toyotomi family.
Maybe it's because I talked to my closest sister, so I didn't have too many scruples. The usual chief would not directly confide such explicit words to his retainers or others as he does now.
"Brother, are you so sure?"
Hao Ji listened to her brother's serious words and was a little dissatisfied.
"Of course. I, the former governor of the Maeda family, still can't I understand it? I'm the one who was able to meet with Hideyori-sama and Yododen. Although I have already retired, they and the internal situation of the Toyotomi family are well known. So I don't really have much hope for them. ”
Toshicho looked at the Toyotomi family from a political point of view, shook his head, and said without hesitation,
"If a war breaks out in the future, I also think that the Toyotomi family will definitely lose. It's just that I guess I won't live to that time. ”
Again, this is a word that is too direct to be direct.
Hidemitsu understood why he didn't want Hidejong to hear this.
"Hao, I understand your feelings. You grew up under the knees of His Royal Highness Taiko, so you naturally have a deep affection for the Toyotomi family. But this matter is really inappropriate, think about it, if something happens to the Toyotomi family in the future, it will not only be Ah Hao, but also Xiu Gao will be implicated, right? Not only you, but I don't want my niece to be involved in this disaster. ”
Richo admonished Hao Ji not to act impulsively,
"Although His Excellency Hidemune is the eldest son of Date Mutsu Omori, he is already on the side of the Toyotomi family, and if a war breaks out in the future, Hidetaka and Ahao will be dragged into the water. So Ah Hao, think about it again, don't make a mistake because of impulse! ”
I have to admit that what Li Chang said is very right. Xiuguang sat at the back and heard clearly.
If time had developed according to its original history, it would have been true.
After Hao Ji listened, there was also a silence.
Xiugao was very calm, as if he had already made a decision, his eyes were as firm as his mother's, his lips were pursed, and he did not speak.
Interests are considered by everyone, but their own position is also their own choice, and their own choice is also one of their own consciousness.
Just by glancing at her daughter, Hao Ji already understood what her daughter was thinking.
So she laughed, and then said to the chief:
"Brother, I know what you said. Indeed, it is something that needs to be considered. ”
"Yes, Ah Hao, you finally understand my brother's good intentions."
I thought that my sister had figured it out, but I didn't expect Hao Ji to say such words next, which made the smile on Li Chang's face instantly freeze.
"But, as I said at the beginning, I was mentally prepared. Xiugao's meaning is what I mean; What the Xiu family means is what I mean. ”
In addition to mentioning her daughter, Hao Ji also mentioned her husband Xiujia, which made Li Chang frown,
"Even Prime Minister Bizen ......"
"And, brother. Although I believe very much in the brother-sister relationship between me and my brother, and I also believe that my brother said earlier that he was worried that Xiu Gao and I would be involved, but the main purpose of my brother's disagreement with this matter is definitely not because he is worried about me and Xiu Gao, right? ”
Haoji, who had never been involved in political affairs, had a very serious look in her eyes at this time, staring straight at her brother in front of her, as if she had a sharp weapon hidden in her eyes, which made Li Chang feel an invisible sense of oppression.
"The reason why my brother is worried about this is because he is worried that this matter will affect the million stones of the Maeda family, right? Always consider the ultimate interests of the family, this is the main purpose of your refusal, brother. ”
Haoji exuded an aura of mixed emotions, although she didn't want to accuse her brother in her subjective consciousness, but for some reason there was still a hint of anger in her eyes.
She knew that her request was unreasonable and capricious, and that her anger was unjustified. But for the sake of her daughter and husband, Hao Ji will not back down.
"All in all, the elder brother is most worried about the Maeda family, not that I, Hidetaka and the Ukita family will be involved."
Li Chang had never had such a conversation with this sister, and he had never seen such a look in his sister's eyes. He couldn't deny Haoji's statement, so he had to remain silent.
It's just that the sister's eyes that are intertwined with emotions such as anger and disappointment make Li Chang a little uncomfortable, and there is also a trace of anxiety and guilt that is completely unreasonable from the bottom of his heart.
"My position will not change. Now that my husband and children have the consciousness of standing on that side, I will firmly support them and have the same consciousness as them. This is my realization as a wife and mother. ”
"I know that my brother is a good family governor for the sake of the family, and I am very troubled by this incident, for which I must first apologize to you, the elder brother, who was involved in this matter. But I still have only one request, to ask my brother to agree to this. ”
"So, no matter what kind of price and retribution will be paid, I will also find a way to ask my brother to agree to this."
In order to respond to the consciousness of her husband who is far away in Osaka and her daughter who is close to her, Haoji is also proving her firmness and consciousness with words and actions. There are even some unscrupulous.
"If my brother doesn't agree to this, I guess I won't leave this room."
