Chapter 56: See the General (Ask for Collection)
Odate Harumitsu and Kuchigi Harumuna welcomed the arrival of Kira Manmatsumaru very much, and received the relatives of the Kira family very warmly, but when they knew that Kira Manmatsumu had such a large team of Shangluo, they immediately lost their smiling faces.
"His Royal Highness Kira's Shangluo team, isn't it a little too large?" Harutsuna Kuchigi laughed dryly, glaring at Harumitsu Odate, who was twenty years older than him, but his movements were a little unnatural, and he was easily discovered by Kira Manmatsumaru.
"Ahem, His Royal Highness Kira has so many Shangluo troops, it's really not easy to arrange, you must know that the current financial situation of the shogunate is very bad, and the Great Imperial Palace and His Royal Highness are building Nakao Castle, so they really can't afford to supply such a huge army." In fact, there is no need for Kuchiki Haruzuna to give him a look, Odate Harumitsu also has something to say, everyone knows that the shogunate is very poor, no matter what you say Kiraden, you are also a member of the shogunate, who will feed you with so many people at this time, isn't it to add to the chaos.
"The purpose of this family is to revitalize the shogunate! As long as the shogunate can be revitalized, what is the cost of a little expense? These Sanhe Feng public food expenditures and distribution of money will be left to the family to solve by themselves! Kira Manmatsumu said righteously.
“…… I see, I'm waiting too much! Odate Harumitsu shook his head secretly, glanced at Kuchiki Haruna with a disdainful expression, and secretly sighed that the cultivation of this Kuchiki Hall was still lacking, looking at Kira Manmatsumu with words like samurai righteousness hanging in his mouth, Odate Harumitsu could only sigh.
"This His Royal Highness Kira has a decent demeanor and extraordinary appearance, I thought that he was a suave talent, but I never thought it would be like this...... Naïve, could it be that the genealogy of the Kira family is all corpse vegetarian generation? That's not right, I've seen Okochi Danma Shouxinzhen, and he is a loyal and reliable person, so why is this young hall messing around? ”
Not to mention what the expressions on the faces of the two people were, anyway, the problem of Mikawa Bong being legally stationed in Sakamoto was finally solved, Kuchigi Haruna found an excuse and left quickly, Odate Harumitsu found Kira Manmatsumu and wanted to do his ideological work, but he opened his mouth to squirt out of the samurai righteousness, the name of the shogunate and the like, and he could only shake his head with a wry smile and leave.
"It's not that I don't want to tell you, it's really inconvenient to say!" Kira Manmatsumu was embarrassed to tell him his thoughts, he had long been aiming at Sakamoto, a treasure of feng shui, the port of Sakamoto was far more developed than Tsushima, and the business contacts from Dewa, Mutsu and Hokuriku and Dongkoku regions, if people in these areas wanted to go to Luo, they had to pass through Sakamoto Port, such a large trade throughput and passenger and cargo turnover, if he took it into his hands, he would definitely make a lot of money.
He is now responsible for the food and clothing of more than 2,000 people, and he has no decent income and can only sit on the empty mountain with the savings in his hand, which he can't accept, and now he still has money in his hand, and more than 23,000 yuan can do many things, such as building a Sakamoto Castle next to Sakamoto Port, and classifying the port's merchant town as a castle town.
Sakamoto is just a resort in the hands of the shogun, and the merchants, travelers, and ronin who come and go have nothing to do with the shogunate, and the shogunate is all staring at the fiscal and tax income of the one acre and three points of land in Kyoto, and then counting the royal palace of Yamashiro Province can be satisfied, and even if the rest is given out, it is not impossible, anyway, the shogunate has nothing to give.
After settling down in the Shangluo army, Kira Manmatsumu took Yamamoto Kansuke and a cadre of Mikawa samurai from the shogunate to meet the Great Imperial Palace and the general, because there was Odate Haruhi in the communication, so the Great Imperial Office and the public side already knew the situation of Kira Manmatsu Maru Shangluo, and the huge team of more than 2,000 people still scared many people, but when he learned that he was willing to serve the public at his own expense, it was so much that Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Ashikaga Yoshito father and son were severely moved.
In the Jishoji Temple, because of the arrival of Kira Manmatsumaru, there has been no road for some time to meet him in person, Kira Manmatsumu knelt alone respectfully in the delicate flowers, and it was Ashikaga Yoshiharu who sat opposite the main seat, he was a middle-aged man with a typical minister-style half, his face was powdered, his eyebrows were twisted into a broad bean-shaped, his teeth were blackened and he was wearing a black hunting suit, and he was sick and crooked as if he would fall down with a push.
Sitting next to him is Ashikaga Yoshito, the young general is not very old, except for wearing a hunting coat and a black hat, there is no other change except for a layer of powder makeup on his face, it can be seen that the new general Ashikaga Yoshito has not yet grasped the real power, just sitting beside his father with an expressionless face and motionless, but this young general does not seem to be a conservative person, and the eager light that bursts out from time to time is easily captured by Kira Manmatsumu.
Ashikaga Yoshiharu of the Great Imperial Palace did not put up the public side, but just said in the tone of an elder to a junior: "Wan Songmaru is a very good name, your father Yoshiyao once assisted the father of the family is a very talented person, and Yu also used letters to recruit when he was young, but unfortunately those things happened later...... The Kira family's loyalty to the shogunate has always been remembered by Yu...... Ahem, ahem! ”
The Great Imperial Palace had a hard time talking, but it was endless, although he couldn't see how his complexion was because of the thick powder covering his face, but it must be very painful to look at his uncomfortable appearance, Ashikaga Yoshito saw that it was wrong to hold his father, and then called the maid to give a few orders to send him away, this strange change was really beyond his expectations.
"His Royal Highness the Great Imperial Palace's Body ......"
"It doesn't matter...... Whew...... Ahem, ahem! Ashikaga Yoshiharu had beads of sweat dripping from his face, and he seemed to be really uncomfortable, but it was a pity that the father and son didn't even say that it didn't matter, and one of the protégés didn't speak, so he was helpless.
It didn't take long for a woman in a fancy dress with her hair and powder and her eyebrows and lips to see her age clearly, surrounded by a group of maids, and when she saw Ashikaga Yoshiharu panting roughly, she hurriedly walked over to support him, and invited the maid to take out a pill from a small box and give it to Ashikaga Yoshiharu, and after a while, Ashikaga Yoshiharu finally stopped coughing, but he was still a little wheezing.
The woman in Chinese clothes whispered a few words to Ashikaga Yoshito, then turned to Kira Manmatsumaru and nodded, and then helped Ashikaga Yoshiharu of the Great Imperial Palace to leave the flowers.
"That's the mother of the family, Keigodai, the daughter of the Konoe family." Ashikaga Yoshito, who had been silent, suddenly said shortly after the Imperial Observatory left with the help of the Great Imperial Palace, "You are the governor of the Mikawa Kira family?" Shouldn't you stay in Saijo Castle at such a young age and enjoy it? ”
"The shogunate is in danger, and I, the Kira family, am one of His Royal Highnesses, and the shogunate is the chief of the public, so I should be loyal to His Royal Highness!" Kira Manmatsumaru didn't raise his eyebrows before throwing out the prepared rhetoric.
"Well said! The Yu Shogunate needs loyal servants like you! The young Ashikaga Yoshito suddenly burst out in a loud voice, and under the dress that didn't look much different from his father, he hid an ambition that was unwilling to fail.
Kira Manmatsu Maru said more and more respectfully: "This is what I should do Manmatsu Maru!" ”
"You don't have a yuan service yet, do you? On the day when Nakao Castle is built, Yu Zi will ask his father to preside over the Yuan Dress Ceremony for you! ”
"I, Wan Songmaru, have thanked His Royal Highness Gongfang!" Kira Manmatsumu hurriedly thanked the ground gratefully, the etiquette teaching he received since he was a child only showed its effect at this time, when should he be respectful, when he should be happy, when should he be grateful, and when he should be grateful There is special training, it doesn't matter if there is a mistake when an ordinary samurai meets, such as a general like the Kira family, even if it is an informal audience, there is no room for the slightest mistake.
In fact, he was very skeptical that Ashikaga Yoshiharu would be able to live until the day when the city was successfully built, but at this time, it was not good to save the face of the new general, and he would not lose a piece of meat if he said a few more nice words, as long as he knew what he should do, so Kira Manmatsumu said: "The two thousand troops under the command are really not suitable for long-term stationing in the field, so I am sure that His Royal Highness the Princesses will allow me to build a new city near Sakamoto to garrison troops, and it can also be used as the command of His Royal Highness the Princes in wartime." ”
"Hmmm! Yu also took it into account, although the shogunate can't support you, but it's no problem to build a new castle, Yu gave permission! "Ashikaga Yoshito waved his long sleeves very angrily, and transferred the best area of Sakamoto to Kira Manmatsumaru, in fact, the shogunate also lost, that was originally from the Rokkaku family, and it was quite cost-effective to exchange a piece of land for the support of two thousand troops.
Note: Ashikaga Yoshito is Ashikaga Yoshiteru.
