Got my explanation. Xiujing's doubts are gone. Satisfied, he left Kusu Temple. I am afraid it is difficult for me to say what the facts are, and whether there are some private considerations.

Through the first two teachings, "I also understand that Jing Zheng is very willing to listen to me and can recognize his mistakes, but he just can't change this character." The root cause of this may be that I was too depressed when I was a child, and I must admit that it was my own negligence. However, at that time, I was so busy fighting that I was not even in Mie Castle many times, so how could I take care of these thoughts among the children?

It is certainly inappropriate to be selfish; However, if a person is not a sage, who can truly be impartial? Didn't I think a lot about myself when I was at the Oda family?

I decided to go over this page first. Right now, there's more important things to do.

Since the enemy Hideyoshi had been ambushed, the matter of officially succeeding the general was also put on the agenda. For this reason, I appointed Hideyo, who was the representative of the Kyoto Institute at the time, to be in charge, and more than 50 daimyo assigned to the castle were asked to renovate and decorate Nijo Castle as the official residence to receive the shogun's announcement.

This castle was originally the residence of Ashikaga Yoshiteru and Ashikaga Yoshiaki, and after Yoshiaki lost power, it was repaired by Oda Nobunaga and given to Prince Seihito as a royal office, but two years ago, when the Honnoji Incident, Nobutada relied on this city to resist the Imperial Mountain Yoshishu (his subordinates were directly under Nobunaga to the Minami Omi people, and it was inconvenient to deal with Nobunaga, so the Honnoji Temple was handed over to the Tanba people of Mitsuhide to deal with), the city was destroyed by fire, and the damage was very serious, Prince Seihito and the princes avoided the city at that time, and retreated to the Kyoto Imperial Palace of the Emperor Masakin-cho, and then it has not been brought back, So the city was left empty and not repaired. Although Hideyoshi occupied Kyoto for a time, he was too busy building Fushimi Castle to deal with Nobutaka and Shibata Katsuie, and had no extra funds and energy. This is also the dissatisfaction of the imperial court and the public family with Hideyoshi, as can be seen from the fact that he occupied Kyoto for nearly two years and never promoted to official rank and position.

Now that the shogunate was rejected, Nijo Castle, as the only castle in Kyoto, was naturally taken over by the samurai. It is similar to the system of the Muromachi well period at the beginning. We have communicated this with Prince Seihito and obtained his consent.

According to the original history, Tokugawa Ieyasu accepted the proclamation of the shogun, and the last shogun, Tokugawa Keiki, returned the government to the imperial court, all in this city. However, the shoguns of the Tokugawa shogunate lived in Edo, and it was rare for them to go to Kyoto, so they did not live here in normal times. In the Muromachi period, with the exception of Yoshiteru and Yoshiaki at the end of the period, the generals usually lived in the Ashikaga family's Hananomisu Palace, among which Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and Ashikaga Yoshimasa, and even built Kitayama Sanso and Higashiyama Sanso, which were no less large than the Kyoto Imperial Palace.

And I'm not going to live in this city. After living in Kira Castle for two years, I've become accustomed to the elegant courtyard-style accommodation. Therefore, I handed over Nijo Castle to the management of Hidekei. The three elders, the five middle elders, and the commissioners led by the Kanju, the Castle Town, and the Temple and Shrine Governors are stationed in the office and handle the daily government affairs on my behalf. Several of the guards were left on the side of Fushimi Castle, led by Wasuka Keikatsu, Satake Nobuhide, and Maeda Toshiie.

At this time, Imabari Castle's Yuka and Fuyuhime had already come to Kyoto, and I arranged for them and a large group of maids and retinues to be placed in Xiangkokuji Temple, and I also picked up Yoshikage's main room Hino Shigeko and the side room Umi Wakahime from the state main castle and placed them in Xiangkokuji Temple, and Shinkei and Yoshikei naturally stayed at Xiangkokuji Temple.

Kira came from Wakayama Castle and escorted Akiko Akiyama, the main room of Zhou Jing. I had planned to place her at Xiangguoji Temple, but she told me privately that she wanted to live at Luyuan Temple in the other courtyard so that she could worship her father and mother, who committed suicide.

"Although they bear the name of usurpation, they are my parents after all. And I know that the last and posthumous things of the two of you are all your hands... It is precisely because of you that I make such a request. She pleaded with me.

"Then you can live in the past, this is also the way of filial piety for children." I quickly agreed to her request

Then, I adopted Shinjiro, the second son of Kira Kinsada for Konatsu, as the heir of the Kamikawa family of Reneda. When I destroyed the Nagazong family, I wanted this child to inherit, but Kira's relatives refused, saying that they didn't want to have the reputation of stealing my brother's family business. And this time, he naturally didn't have any worries, and quickly agreed to my request, and was ordered to go to Kira Castle Pavilion to welcome Konatsu to Kyoto.

In addition, I also instructed Kira to take over the Treasure Temple. In any case, her identity is the biological mother of the great general, and since her nominal father, Kira Nobunao, has been posthumously gifted the position of the second minister, she cannot ignore this still living great palace, although I know that according to her personality and physical condition, she is probably reluctant to leave her own Bodhi Temple.

Tokuki also took his three-year-old adopted son Oda Keinobu Kamiluo, and the guards were Ichiyoshi Tsunagawa, Sadatsu Inaba, Oda Nobutoyo (Nobunaga's fourth son, historically Hideyoshi's adopted son), Endo Keitaka (Yamauchi Kazutoyo's younger brother), and five members of the Baibaigang family, of which Nikawa Kazuki was the agent of the clan stationed in the Reneda family, serving as Keishin's aftermath and the scheduled advance commander of the Hojo Expedition, and the remaining four and the wooden Nagamasa who invited Nijo Castle in the early stage of Shangluo Castle were all quasi-castle lords of the Minoshi Tsutaka Domain, and served as Keishin's five assistant family elders. I arranged for her mother and son to be placed in Daitokuji Somiin Temple, Shino, Kamigyo Ward, where the shrines of Nobunaga and Nobutada were enshrined, and there was also the offering pagoda of Yangkagein (Nohime), with Nobuo as the abbot. The last time he was defeated and captured in the Battle of Settsu, I spared his life and arranged for him to become a monk here to protect the spiritual throne for Nobunaga and Nobutada.

As the current pawn of the Oda family, Jingxin went to Beijing to participate in the general's announcement of the congratulations, which was a very important arrangement, representing the official transition of the hegemony of the world from the Oda family to the Kira family. Such an important mission is too heavy for a child, and he can't understand the meaning of it at all, however, this may be his luck, otherwise, with such a sensitive identity, his ending will not be much better than that of Xinxiao.

But what I didn't expect was that Janet from the inner city of Bungo Mansion also came to Kyoto with eight-year-old Keiyoshi. This is really very unusual, because after the Battle of Settsu and the Battle of Harima, although I ordered Ataka Nobuyasu to send the Kyushu army back to Japan, several important ministers of the Otomo family remained with Hidekei. So, without their escort, how could Janet and Jingyi's mother and son leave Jucheng? Even if those important ministers also went back, if they didn't receive my orders, they would never dare to rashly take the Great Imperial Taihe

The young diligent boat mound lord is on Luo.

However, when I saw the brothers Antaku Nobuyasu and Ataku Kiyoyasu who were attendants, I immediately guessed the reason before they could report it themselves. This must have been Janet's own willfulness, forcibly boarding the ship and asking the Ataka brothers to send her. In the face of Janet's willful behavior, the Ataku brothers couldn't stop them from coming to the state city from time to time when they were in Awaji, and they also saw the flying character and majesty of this "state main hall".

This current Funai Imperial Tai has a good complexion, and it is obvious that he has made a lot of power in Funai City, and he has risen with the rise of my own status. When she came to Luyuan Temple, she immediately led a large group of maids to occupy the large academy near the Golden Pavilion.

It is close to Jinghu Pond and Golden Pavilion, the scenery is particularly good, and the building is also excellent, which is the most comfortable residence in the whole Luyuan Temple. Choosing to live here is enough to see that she has good taste, but this big academy was specially set aside by me and Akiko Muroyama for Xiao Xia's recuperation.

Seeing her so neat and crisp, I almost wondered, was she born to fight with Xiao Xia? In the past, Xiao Xia was squeezed out in Funai Castle and Imabari Castle, but now she is still robbing her of her residence when she comes to Kyoto.

"Why are you here? You still rob this place of residence and don't say a word to me? I asked helplessly.

"The entire Luyuan Temple is empty here!" Janet replied innocently.

It's true because I didn't have a place for her in the first place. Except for the governance of me and the temple, the two residences of Zhou Jing and Xiao Xia, and the residence of the attendants, there is no other space in this Luyuan Temple.

"I ask you why you're here! 、、I raised my voice", why did you take Jingyi Shangluo without my permission? ”

"Isn't His Highness going to be the shogun of the shogunate?" Janet looked at me strangely, "This kind of thing, even Luna (Dongjin) came with Mrs. Dongji, and the concubine and Rui (Jingyi) naturally can't miss it... Don't hide it from His Royal Highness, the concubine was worried that she wouldn't be able to catch up, but fortunately, the ship of the Anzhai family is very "

"With your righteous brother here, it is enough to represent the position of the Otomo family." I interrupted her impatiently.

"However, the concubine is the side chamber of His Highness. Rui is still a child of His Highness! Janet blinked, aggrieved.

I was speechless when I said this. Indeed, Jingyi is also my child, at this moment he is next to his mother, staring at his dark eyes, timidly looking at the father in front of him, who has not seen him for a long time, with a dull face, and there is some admiration and some panic on his delicate face. This appearance made me can't help but soften my heart, after all, it is also my own flesh and blood, and the age is only two years different from Jing Zhong, who has just passed away.

Seriously speaking, although he is a daimyo of nearly 500,000 stones, he is still young and cannot participate in family affairs, so naturally he can't say that he has any temperament, and it is natural for him to have such an innocent and docile expression with a strong and doting mother. This is also my original intention, not to ask him to get ahead, as long as he is comfortable, or simply like Sekigahara before the war, even if there is no father to take care of, I can grow up under the care of my mother, a large number of maids and retainers, and worship the official position step by step, and live a peaceful life, but as his father, I am still alive after all, and it is indeed too irresponsible to throw him away like this.

"Well, since you're in Kyoto, let's stay here!" I nodded, "But, Janet, you have to give up half of your residence, and Xiao Xia will soon enter Beijing." ”

"Give up half?" Janet blinked, obviously very reluctant, "The concubine has so many maids and luggage"

"Who told you to bring so many people? If you really want to participate in the ceremony, you only need to bring a few key people, "I shook my head", and there are so many luggage, should you move or what? ”

Hearing this question, Janet actually nodded, and looked over with a pair of bright eyes: "Your Highness is so smart!" The concubine didn't say anything before she guessed the inner city of Fu, although it was okay. But it's certainly not as elegant and prosperous as Kyoto! ”

This time, I completely lost my temper.

"So, how about you marry Lady Janet to live here first?" I sighed, "When Dongshandi is completed, I will arrange a richer and more spacious accommodation for you." ”

"Dongshandi? Where is it? Janet asked quickly.

"On the Higashiyama of the Omonji Mountains to the east," I pointed to the east," said Ashikaga Yoshimasa Shogun of the Muromachi period, who built Higashiyama Villa on the hill in imitation of his grandfather Yoshimitsu Taimasa's Rokuen Temple. However, his courage and financial resources were not in a hurry with his grandfather, but he built a silver pavilion temple, and the silver used for decoration was still sponsored by his main chamber, Hino Tomiko, and now the silver has also fallen off, and the building is also deserted, so it was occupied by the former exile Sekihaku Konoe for a long time and made it his own hermitage (retreat). Last month, when he came to visit me and asked me to take care of his sister-in-law, Nobunaga (who had been in charge of the Motofu five years ago), I told him that Higashiyama Jishoji Temple was also an annex to Sangkokuji Temple, and asked him to let Higashiyama out and I would build another mansion for him. ”

"So, not only the concubine, but also His Royal Highness will also live in Dongshan in the future?" Janet asked me with joy.

"There are also daimyo and main chambers of each feudal clan who entered Beijing. When their heirs stayed in Kyoto, they would also live in Higashiyama No.,I would ask the ministers, monks, tea people, and Confucian scholars to teach them there, and at the same time study Buddhism and Zhuzi Confucianism, and sort out the classics that had been scattered during the war. In terms of family affairs, there are those important ministers who have been in the family to deal with. Yoshioka, Mukai, and Yoshihiro are all loyal and capable people, and they will not waste and neglect government affairs, and without you stirring up in them, maybe it will be smoother; I really can't do it, and there are all the genealogy masters of the sect family to help. ”

"That's for the best! Rui can also be taught here, and he can also spend more time with his father," Janet said with a smile, not caring about the mockery in my words, "Really, those retainers always want to teach him martial arts and mounted archery, saying that it is the duty of the head of the martial arts family. But how could such a delicate man let him go to war? The concubine has only such a son! It's not like Xiao Xia."

My face darkened suddenly.
