Chapter 227: Honoring the Mountain
In late October, he accompanied Frank Argoth and Claudia Plantagenet on a tour of Kyoto, and came to Sakamoto to visit the beautiful Lake Biwa, and after half a month of recuperation at the Kek Lok Temple Hot Springs in Kawachi Province, Frank Argoth returned to Europe with his fleet when he said goodbye to Kirayoshi.
The Argotic Chamber of Commerce's fleet had expanded by thirty percent, and at the end of his words the voyage of trade across the oceans, he was about to return to Amsterdam for a short break, the fleet would be more than half enlarged, and he had the funds to add a few Clark galleons to his fleet.
Claudia Plantagenet did not mention the loan again, according to Frank privately told him, Claudia has an extraordinary business acumen, with that money to run her own small fleet on the Northern Sea Route, this time to find the talent needed for Kira Yoshitoki, but also to tempt him to profit, so that Kira Yoshitoki has to wonder if these two people will not collect the introduction fee from it.
He was so surprised that he thought the Argotic Chamber of Commerce was going to spend the winter in Japan before returning home, but Claudia told him that the fleet was going to cross the Pacific Ocean quickly in the stormy season, and that there were still two months of long voyage ahead for them, and that they would only meet again in two years.
"I think in two years, we'll meet in another place, but don't worry, I'll have someone left behind to meet you in Sakaimachi, goodbye! See you in two years! β
"See you in two years!" Claudia winked at him and turned away with a grin.
Nagao Keihu had already returned to Daitokuji Temple with a sightseeing tour, and Kira Yoshitoki's private message had already arrived in his hands, in which he told Nagao Keitoko's main room that it was beyond doubt. He was a little hesitant to receive this letter. After nearly a month of thinking and weighing. Only then did he bow to the nine masters of the Tsuxiu Sect who were participating in Zen meditation and bid farewell to Dade Temple.
Konoe Jehome cut her hair for the northernmost part of Kyoto's Kamikyo District, a road on the light temple practice, the law name Xiushan respect, the light temple is known as the Tokiwa Imperial Palace, in the first year of the Northern and Southern Dynasty Enbun, after the Fushimi Emperor's daughter Prince Shinkonai became a monk, the law name from the Honkun. A large street in Muromachi was created to create a illumination temple.
The rebellion of the Εren was burned down by the war, and then rebuilt in the old place of the temple, and there was also the name of the Anrakukoin Temple, and then it became the Nimon trace of the emperor's family for generations of imperial daughters to shave their hair and practice, and Xiushan Zun entered the Nimon trace to practice is also the face of the imperial court to the Kira family, and Kira Yoshishi immediately said that he would donate 1,000 Kan Yongle money for the repair of the temple in the temple.
At the same time, a small courtyard of the meditation hall was specially built for the beauty of the mountain, and the supply standard of the canteen was specially improved, so that this small nun with only about 20 nuns became rich all of a sudden. Prince Fangren also issued a special imperial decree to praise Kira Yoshishi's merits, which was also a surprise.
From the mouth of Konoe Harusus, I learned that the Illuminate was a very talented woman. In particular, his attainments in Sinology were even above his brother Konoe Haruhi, so Kira Yoshishi spent a huge amount of money to buy the classics of the Ming Kingdom and gave them to the Illumination Academy, including "Yuefu Poetry Collection", "Wenxin Carving Dragon", "Taiping Guangji", "Zhaoming Anthology" This kind of collection, there are also encyclopedias such as "Art and Literature Gathering", "Taiping Yulan", "Shufu Yuangui", "Yongle Canon", and other encyclopedias such as "Spring and Autumn", "Zuo's Spring and Autumn", "Spring and Autumn Valley Liang Biography", "Spring and Autumn Ram Biography", "Yanzi Spring and Autumn", "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" and other spring and autumn legends are also among them.
In order to house the vast sea of books, Kira Yoshitoki specially ordered someone to build a scripture pavilion, which was specially used for reading books in Zunzan's leisure time, and he also took great pains to do so, so that the only little resentment of the Konoe family also dissipated, and both inside and outside the court praised Kira Yoshitoki's affectionate actions.
In the Kiyoshi Nunnery of the Light Temple, the Konoe Jehome who had already been ordained was wearing a nun's robe, and the head wrapping shawl fell down like a cloak to her knees, and she was holding the books donated by Kira Yoshitoki to read carefully, when a little nun hurried over, causing her to frown slightly.
"Your Royal Highness! His Highness has a message for you. β
"There will be no princess in the Deni Academy, Xiu'an, don't use the wrong title anymore." Konoe Jue Ji said lightly: "Poor Nifa is famous and beautiful, and there is no one in the world. β
"Yes, Xiu Sex! His Highness wants to tell you that if you have time, you can write a book and speak, and it is not impossible to be a Purple Shibu of this dynasty. β
A faint flush flashed on the pale face of the guard, and he covered his chest and coughed lightly for a long time before changing to a flat tone and said softly: "In a word, let's just say that the poor nun wrote it down." β
"Yes!" Xiu'an stepped back cautiously.
There was another major event in November, that is, Konoe Haruki was promoted to a Sekihaku and Left Minister, and the Fuji elder announced that in order to show that his status was different from the past, and to be different from his political opponent Nijo Harara, he changed his name to Konoe on the day he was promoted.
Also changed his name is Ashikaga Yoshito, since this summer after the promotion of the three big Nayan, the right guard general, he is brewing a motion to change the name, in the Middle Ages to change the name is also a kind of expression of ambition, this time Ashikaga Yoshito changed the name to Ashikaga Yoshite, which seems to herald the full revival of the shogunate.
On December 1st, a simple ceremony was held at the Konoe house, and Nagao Toraki, as the son of the Konoe family, had to symbolically undergo a month and a half of etiquette training, all of which was handled by Konoe Haruhus, and Kira Yoshitoki and Nagao Keitora participated in this ceremony at the same time, and the shogunate also sent Settsu Harimon to watch the ceremony.
Then in the former Sekihaku, the adoptive father of the long-tailed tiger hime, the Konoe family signed a marriage contract, in this not grand ceremony, the long-tailed tiger queen kept her face tight from beginning to end, and did not mince words about the flattering smile of Kira Yoshitoki, such an embarrassing scene made the Konoe family feel embarrassed, and the long-tail Jinghu could only apologize with a wry smile.
After the ceremony, the two were recruited by Ashikaga Yoshiki to Nijo Go, and when Nagao Keihu stepped back, Ashikaga Yoshiteru couldn't wait to ask: "Who allowed you to make your own decisions to enter into a marriage?" Do you know that you are now a famous general of my shogunate, and which daughter of the Echigo Nagao family is worthy of the Kira family? Don't you think you're discrediting your home? β
Looking at the angry Ashikaga Yoshiteru staring at him coldly, as if he was looking at a betrayer, he could only sigh secretly Sure enough, he leaned over and said more and more respectfully: "I'm sorry, His Royal Highness!" Your Majesty is doing this for the sake of the future of the shogunate! β
"For the future of the shogunate? What do you mean by that? When Ashikaga Yoshiteru looked at Kira suspiciously, there was a heavy look of vigilance in his eyes, as if he was guarding against him for some tricks. (To be continued......)
