Chapter 1: Stepping down as Governor
For example, his eldest son, Yoshitaka Kuroda, is indeed a very sensible child, who has put a lot of pressure on himself since he was a child, and where does that pressure come from? Isn't it from my father, who is the head of the family? Since I was a child, I told him that you want to become the head of the Kuroda family, you have to take responsibility for the future of the Kuroda family, you have to become the successor of the Kuroda family admired by the world, and you have to be able to defend the country that I have brought down.
Kuroda Vocational High School himself ignored his concern for this child, he never thought about what this child wanted in his heart? Would you like to learn this? Do you want to live like this? Will you be able to take on the future responsibilities of the Kuroda family?
Another example is Kuroda Nagamasa, as the second son, he is indeed a very good and strong child, which makes Kuroda Vocational High School very disgusted from the very beginning, and this disgust mainly comes from his understanding of Kuroda Nagamasa in history.
But it is precisely because of this that Kuroda Vocational High School has always regarded Kuroda Nagamasa as a child he doesn't like, and he never thought that he might be able to make this child's ambition into an upward motivation through subtle changes, so as to become a talent that the Kuroda family can use.
And it is precisely because of his indifference to Kuroda Nagamasa that he slowly feels in his heart that he is the one who is treated unfairly, so he will slowly become what he is now, and even dare to pull out the ribs around his waist.
If anything, is it really Kuroda Nagamasa's own fault, isn't there any mistake in the height of the black sky? No, absolutely not, even if the so-called internal causes determine external causes! Kuroda Vocational High School is still very responsible for the fact that Kuroda Nagamasa is very rebellious.
Kuroda Nagamasa is indeed ambitious, but Kuroda Nagamasa is not stupid at all, after leaving from Kuroda Vocational High School, he returned directly to his room, did not make any other bad moves, and appeared very well-behaved, not leaving any handle for Kuroda Vocational High School.
Because of Hattori's words, Kuroda Vocational High School felt a little guilty about him. It is precisely because of this guilt that Kuroda Vocational High School does not want to hold him accountable too much. Even if he has a great grudge against himself in his heart, let him go! Maybe one day in the future, he will be able to understand himself, and all the hard work is not necessarily.
Even if he couldn't understand his hard work, he didn't have any chance, because on the third day after the funeral of his mother, after the Kuroda family returned to Kuroda Castle, Kuroda immediately announced that he would step down from the position of family governor and only exist as a posterior, giving up the position of Kuroda family governor to Kuroda Yoshitaka, who is now twenty years old.
Kuroda's meaning is obvious, he gave the power of the Kuroda family to his son, and at the same time he did not make the decision to retire, but continued to serve as the rear servant of the Kuroda family.
But such a change at least reassures everyone in the Kuroda family, the power inheritance of the Kuroda family has been determined, and there will not be much change, so what the Kuroda family should do after that is to unite with the outside world.
When Yoshitaka Kuroda sat on the head of the Kuroda family for the first time, he felt amazing when he looked at Kuroda Vocational High School sitting in his original seat.
In the past, it was always my father who led the Kuroda family forward, but now this responsibility falls on me, and my father, as a rear servant, will watch over me from behind, maybe I need to work harder after that, and I have to work hard for the Kuroda family.
The whole world has not yet surrendered to the large and small forces of the Eastern Kingdom and Yu Ao, and now the Kuroda family's three-way army is carrying out the strategy of the Eastern Kingdom. If the world can be reunited in its own hands, perhaps it will also be a great credit, and it will remain in the history books!
When the Imperial Court learned of the change in power of the Kuroda family, it immediately dispatched Konoe Maehisa to convey the appointment of the Imperial Court. Yoshitaka Kuroda succeeded Kuroda from the former Shoshi of Kuroda Vocational High School as the fourth secretary of state of the country.
However, the imperial court also saw very clearly that Kuroda was just retreating behind the scenes of the Kuroda family, and did not completely hand over his rights. Therefore, it was immediately transferred to Kuroda Vocational High School as the three great admonitions.
The official expression is to thank Kuroda for his constant care for the imperial court, and at the same time for making great efforts to unify the world. Therefore, he was able to become a minister and live in Kyoto as much as possible.
Kuroda had no opinion on this, and quickly replied to Konoe Maehisa that he would return to Kyoto in the near future, and that he would demolish Nijo Castle and build a simple annex on it as his residence.
The Emperor was very satisfied with Kuroda's reply, at least in this respect, he was not as arrogant as Oda Nobunaga had shown before.
The more obedient something is, the more it doesn't necessarily work out in practice, and the more perverse something is, it often indicates that it's not really attentive to it. The obedience to Kuroda's high school is not actually a good thing or a bad thing, but at least in the emperor's heart, he is a so-called loyal minister.
At the same time, the Muri family also sent the princess Yezi to Kuroda Castle again, and this time she was sent here for the purpose of marrying Kuroda Yoshitaka. The two men held a wedding the day after Kuroda Yoshitaka ascended the throne, because the two people already knew each other well, so at least the two people were satisfied with each other.
And as the main room of Kuroda Yoshitaka, Ye Zi will also take on the role of Lady Iwa and Ali in the future. In these aspects, it is natural that Ali, who is a mother-in-law, will teach, and Ali is now thirty-five years old, which is the time for maturity and stability, and it is just right for her to teach Yezi, and she is also happy to teach this daughter-in-law.
Also married with Ye Zi are Konoe Maehisa's niece's granddaughter, as well as Ah Shi's second daughter Ah Chu.
This family affair in Konoe Maehisa was also something he and Kuroda had already negotiated, but she existed as a side room of Kuroda Yoshitaka. And Ashi's daughter was given to the eldest son by Kuroda's vocational high school, and of course it can only be used as Kuroda Yoshitaka's side room.
Just when Kuroda Yoshitaka ascended the throne, two good news came, which were congratulatory gifts to his ascendancy, the first was that the Bessho family Miki Castle, which had been besieged for more than three years, was finally captured, and Bessho Nagaji led more than ten of his relatives to apologize under the gaze of the Kuroda generals, so as to ensure the safety of the remaining 1,000 soldiers and civilians in the city.
