Chapter 138: Twenty Years of Astronomy (1st Update)

In the busy 20th year of the New Year, it is another year of Zhengdan Dynasty will be just a different time now, the shogunate's successive victories completely recaptured the lost Yamashiro country, and it is the first time since the Ming Coup d'état, the shogunate really grasped the power of the Yamashiro country, and the entire mountain castle belonged to the imperial court and the shogunate to take back all the imperial materials, and it was even more coincidental that it happened to coincide with the autumn harvest, and a large amount of money and grain were recorded in the account so that the court and the shogunate were very satisfied.

Since the decline of the shogunate in the Onin Rebellion, the life of the imperial court has become more and more difficult, after the coup d'état of Mei, the reputation of the shogunate was lost, and the imperial court also lived a few decades of poverty, and the joke of the emperor selling paintings and ministers selling vegetables has been passed in Kyoto for many years, and now Kujo Shimitsu is still hiding in Settsu because of bankruptcy to live as an ascetic, and Kira Yoshitoki recaptures the lost imperial material for the imperial court and the shogunate, and everyone in the imperial court and the shogunate has to accept his love.

This year's Imperial Meeting,It was held very grandly,Not only the daimyo in Kinai have sent donations,Even distant countries such as Kyushu Shimazu、Michinoku and other remote samurai also sent a tribute,In the past, these daimyo are always interrupted for a few years,The daimyo do not come to the court to pay tribute to the shogunate and it is not easy to say them,There is no right to say anything,Now that the shogunate has won the battle,These daimyo decisively see the wind and make the rudder pasted over。

Kira Yoshitoshi is very particular about the dress of the five positions, at this time he is wearing the official dress of the court, the scarlet robe worn by the five is extremely bright, Yamamoto Tokiyuki as an important escort in the family, and Nakajo Tokihide to participate in the court meeting together, as a powerful public servant of the shogunate, he has been appointed to evaluate the public, which is also the hereditary position of the Nakajo family.

In the past few months, Nakajo Tokihide has also followed Kira Yoshitoki in Kyoto, but his character is different, he participated in the shogunate in the shogunate evaluation public, and replaced the Kira family to and from the shogunate and Sakamoto as a dredging contact, and it didn't take long for him to be summoned separately by Ashikaga Yoshito, and it was seen that Ashikaga Yoshito had plans to poach people, but Nakajo Tokihide was unmoved by the hints of the public side, which made Ashikaga Yoshito very angry.

At the beginning of the new year, the Imperial Court and the Shogunate jointly issued an edict prohibiting burials in temples, and it was a matter of course to prohibit burials in Japan's scarce land.

At the same time, another non-Japanese power entered Kyoto for the first time, the Portuguese Jesuit missionary Francisco de Xavier, officially known as St. Francis Xavier of the Ming Dynasty, a famous missionary who came to Kyoto from Kyushu to seek missionary permission from the imperial court and shogunate.

Xavier arrived in Sakai at the beginning of December, lived for more than half a month under the hospitality of Sakai Town's wealthy merchants Hibiya and Konishi Ryonzo, and then rushed to Kyoto before the arrival of the New Year, originally intending to take advantage of the New Year's festival in Kyoto, his activities really played a role, and under the money of Sakai Town merchants, Xavier visited the emperor and the shogun successively.

Kira Yoshitoki also happened to meet him to meet Ashikaga Yoshito, as a historical celebrity to meet the ancient sages is also quite new, of course, he does not intend to provoke this religion that is more troublesome than the Ichiko, can only sit back and watch this missionary disappointed.

Xavier's missionary rights were not allowed by the imperial court and the shogunate, and the national missionary permission and establishment of dioceses by the Nanban religion was a fool's dream in this excesses known as the Kingdom of God, and some Nanban temples were built in the Satsuma area of southern Kyushu because of the iron cannon eastward transmission, and at first many peasants thought that this was a new sect of Buddhism and were baptized.

Later, some people gradually discovered that the Nanban Temple was not the same thing at all, and rebuked the gods and Buddhas as false gods and pagans, which immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of the peasants, and the Nanban Temple in Minamikyushu was burned one after another, and the matter was so troubled that the Shimazu family did not send anyone to investigate, and later found that the teachings of the Nanban missionaries were very different from the Japanese religion, so they no longer bothered to ask.

Medieval Japan is a traditional Buddhist country, and has accepted the ideas of Taoism and Confucianism, belonging to a typical oriental cultural society, the Southern Barbarian Religion is destined to be suppressed and excluded here, even if Kira Yoshishi can't remember the specifics, he also knows when these missionaries will be unlucky, if they really have more contact with them, maybe they will really get a little bit of honor, but the Portuguese merchants still have to contact.

"I heard that the Portuguese gave Otomo's family a cannon, and this cannon is said to be so powerful that it was named 'Kunikaku' by Otomo Yoshizhen, so it would be nice if the Portuguese could also give him one." Kira Yoshitoki secretly thought about the little family background of the Otomo family, as far as he knew, the artillery of the Portuguese was average, and then the rising Spain was a more powerful country.

Since the introduction of iron cannons to Kyushu in the 12th year of Astronomy, Portuguese merchants have been visiting Kyushu more and more frequently, and in recent years, they have begun to settle in Hirado and Nagasaki, and have built Nanban temples and hospitals, and a force that is not part of Japan has been pushing this era forward.

"The Nanban merchant of Kyushu and the big red deer of Owari seem to have a deep connection, and the legend of Nanami must have come from there!" For some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis, as if the train of the times was moving forward at high speed, and whether he could adapt to this new era.

Ashikaga Yoshito was very active at the Shotan Imperial Conference, and the ministers of the shogunate could understand the ambition of the shogunate, although there was still some distance from the expulsion of Mitsuki that he had made, but it was now a substantial first step, and it was also an important step for the shogunate to restore its authoritarian power.

Ashikaga Yoshito's childhood was gray, and not long after he was born, he caught up with his father Ashikaga Yoshiharu and Hosokawa Harumoto against each other, and followed his father to Sakamoto and Kuchiki to live a life of exile at a young age, counting the number of times he fled is really a history of blood and tears.

Tenbun 10 and Hosokawa Harumoto opposed and fled to Sakamoto, in the 11th year of Astronomy, the two sides returned to Kyoto in harmony, in the 12th year of Astronomy fled to Sakamoto because of the Gyeonggi Turmoil, and was able to return to Kyoto because of the extermination of Kizawa Nagamasa, in the 15th year of Astronomy, he fled to Sakamoto again because of the battle of the Relic Temple, accepted his father's transfer as the general of the expedition, and followed his father back to Jishoji Temple.

In the sixteenth year of astronomy, he was opposed to Hosokawa Harumoto, and fled to Sakamoto for a few months and a half, and Hosokawa Harumoto reconciled, and returned to Kyoto again, and then finally the relationship with Hosokawa Harumoto became harmonious, and in the eighteenth year of astronomy, Miyoshi Changqing rose again, and fought a battle of Eguchi and scared the general to Sakamoto, so can run and be so timid, how can the world look at it?

Ashikaga Yoshito couldn't tolerate the decline of the shogunate, and it was for this to recapture Kyoto, after a series of difficult lives of fleeing and fleeing and fleeing repeatedly, Ashikaga Yoshito, who returned to Kyoto, would never allow himself to escape back to Sakamoto, he was a person who valued face more than life, and in his opinion, it was better to live than to die for a general without face.

Living in Kyoto is really a thousand times better than Sakamoto in the Omi countryside, this good is not in the material improvement, but in the spiritual satisfaction, living a chic life every day without white ding, finally let him experience some of the feelings of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu in the Shikaen Temple, the gorgeous Kitayama Kinkakuji Temple is a portrayal of that glorious era.

When the name of the Ashikaga family was reported at the Zhengtan court meeting, the eyes of all kinds of samurai who came to the shogunate to offer gold changed when they looked at him, especially the Nachifu Zuodai Konwei Haruki who accompanied him to attend the Zhengtan court meeting, and he treated this righteous brother Kira Yoshishi differently, and his eyes looked at Kira Yoshishi with a little creepy feeling, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Kira Yoshitoki became famous, and his outstanding performance in the battle of last year immediately swept across Japan like a twelve-level gale, including the famous general of the Asakura family, Asakura Muneto, also recorded the prestige of Kira Yoshishi in his "Zong Di Night Talk", and for a time Kira Yoshitoki became the hottest topic this year, Kira Yoshitoki was completely popular, and countless people came to visit him, just to see the appearance of this legendary general.

In addition to the normal dealings with the ministers of the imperial court and the famous families of the shogunate, some depressed wandering samurai also came to the door, but it is a pity that these ronins are either unclean, or they have conflicts with the main family and are banished.

In addition to the usual offering of 300 kan and 200 kan to the shogunate and the imperial court respectively, and also to his relatives in the middle courtyard and Konoe family to send a hundred kanbun, it is also worth mentioning that Kira Yoshitoki sent a gift to Ashikaga Katsuhime, in addition to the clothes and accessories worn by the girl, daily necessities such as rouge gouache, various snacks and specialties are equivalent to 500 kan, and even Konoe Haruki ran over to thank him.

"I, Qing Hei Dai Ah Sheng, thank Yi Shi for his kindness, I really don't want to let Yi Shi spend so much!"

"His Royal Highness Haruji is too humble! These are just some of the things I could do for Katsuhime as an elder brother when I was righteous. Kira Yoshitoki was still talking with Konoe Haruhi in a friendly voice on the surface, but in fact, he had already scolded in his heart: "I'm going to see my sister, what kind of fun are you coming over, and you also bring Katsuhime to thank me, I'll wipe it!" ”
