Gao Xianda felt that there was no more suitable person than Matsudaira Motoyasu to improve local security. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

First, he was able to keep Matsudaira Motoyasu in the Suruga area as a commissioner; Second, his retainers, mainly Tadaji Sakai, were extremely capable, and his Mikawa soldiers were also the best at fighting, and they were very effective in exterminating large-scale bandits; Third, he can be regarded as mobilizing Matsudaira Motoyasu and not letting him do things in Junfu City.

In this way, Gao Xianda can be regarded as fulfilling his promise to Matsudaira Motoyasu, allowing him to take the position equivalent to the Minister of the Interior, and let him be in charge of the security in the territory. This would give him a reason not to let Matsudaira Motoyasu return to Okazaki to take up the position of lord of the castle.

Of course, since Matsudaira Motoyasu is to protect the passage, it is inevitable that he will go back and forth between the three tails and four countries of Junyuan, and he will also have the opportunity to return to Sanhe.

At this time, Kinoshita Tengjiro was in Okazaki Castle to investigate the problem of Mikawa Laochen's tax evasion, and Matsudaira Motoyasu would inevitably have friction with them when he returned.

Whether it's Kinoshita Tengjiro or Matsudaira Motoyasu, they are all retainers of the Imagawa family, and they have a support group behind them. Kinoshita Tengyoshiro has a samurai trio, and Matsudaira Motoyasu has a large number of retainers, and although the strength is not enough to overwhelm the other party, it is still no problem to save the master's life.

Therefore, neither of them can easily eliminate the other, so if there is a dispute between them, they can only turn to Gao Xianda for help. Therefore, the status of GOXIANDA will be higher and higher.

On the other hand, if Matsudaira Motoyasu is able to do his job, then the economy of the territory under the Imagawa family will soon prosper, and if he is not able to do his job, then Takasenda will have even more reason to weaken the power of the Matsudaira family. Anyway, whether Matsudaira Motoyasu is effective or not, it is good for Gao Xianda.

Matsudaira Motoyasu may not be able to see so many of Gao Xianda's thoughts. After all, he didn't know about the close relationship between Nawu and Gao Xianda. Gao Xianda only asked him to maintain law and order in the territory and exterminate the bandits, and did not let him escort the caravan of Nawu.

So in his opinion, Gao Xianda just arranged an internal affairs job for him in order not to let him return to Okazaki City. Although this work is less oil and water than the work of purchasing food and ordnance, it is not easy to arouse the suspicion of Gao Xianda.

Being able to change from the identity of a hostage to the identity of a pursuer, Matsudaira Motoyasu is already very satisfied.

At this time, Imagawa Yoshimoto had not yet woken up, and Gao Xianda was the acting governor of the Imagawa family. In the face of the commission of Coxianda, Matsudaira Motoyasu said that he would gladly accept it.

A kingdom shall not be without a king for a day. Imagawa Yoshimoto has been asleep all the time, and everyone can't wait for him forever. This time, the important ministers returned to Junfu for a meeting, and it was for this matter.

Gao Xianda is the eldest son of Imagawa Yoshimoto, and this time he has made a great contribution to the conquest of Owari, so the elders of the family and the city lords are more sure of Gao Xianda's ability. Therefore, after discussion, everyone decided to support Gao Xianda to inherit the family governor.

This is not an election, and Coxenda has no competitors, so Coxanda is not humble. He expressed his gratitude to the important ministers who supported him, and stated that he would strive to lead the Imagawa family to glory.

The ministers were also very happy, after all, the larger the scale of the Imagawa family, the higher their own interests could rise.

But Gao Xianda's ass was not hot yet, and when he had just issued a few orders and was still studying how to distribute the cake to everyone, someone from behind hurriedly ran to Gao Xianda and said, "Lord, lord...... Lord, he's awake! ”

Gao Xianda listened, what kind of mess? Then he said: "Speak slowly! ”

The next man said, "Yes, it's Lord Yiyuan who woke up!" ”

I heard that Imagawa Yoshimoto woke up, but Gao Xianda was actually quite happy.

Although Imagawa Yoshimoto is only the father forcibly assigned to him by this world, in Imagawa Yoshimoto's heart, Gao Xianda is his son. So Imagawa Yoshimoto is still very good to Gao Xianda.

Gao Xianda didn't even care about wearing shoes, so he hurriedly ran to Imagawa Yoshimoto's bedroom.

Sure enough, Imagawa Yoshimoto's eyes were already open, and he was barely able to sit up with his pillow. At this time, someone was feeding him spoonful by spoonful of thick rice soup.

Seeing Gao Xianda coming, Imagawa Yoshimoto was also very excited, and said, "Son, you also escaped?" That's great! Oda Nobunaga, this guy dares to sneak up on me? When I regroup my troops, I must give him a good look! ”

It seems that Imagawa Yoshimoto's memory is still at the stage of being attacked by Oda Nobunaga. can make him understand that he is not dead, and he has wasted a lot of his strength.

Gao Xianda hurriedly smiled and said, "Father, you don't have to worry about this!" Oda Nobunaga, who attacked you, has been forced by me to seppuku. The entire Owari has also fallen under the control of our Imagawa family, so don't worry! ”

Imagawa Yoshimoto knew that he had been attacked by a sneak attack, and he knew that something bad was going to happen, and nine times out of ten, the army of the Imagawa family was going to be defeated. I didn't expect to win in the end.

He smiled and said, "That's good, that's good!" ”

Gao Xianda sat down and slowly reported the events of these days to Imagawa Yoshimoto.

Imagawa Yoshimoto nodded sometimes and sighed at times, and finally said to Gao Xianda: "Hikogoro, you have grown up!" As my son, I didn't mistake you! ”

Gao Xianda said: "Thank you for your father's compliment." ”

Imagawa Yoshimoto said at this time: "But although you have a strong fighting ability, you still don't have enough grasp of people's hearts." Although we didn't succeed in Kamiraku this time, the annexation of Owari was a major victory. Our victory was inseparable from the support of our retainers. So you shouldn't promise the Oda family's retainers to keep their fiefdoms. They have served the Oda family for generations and are very loyal to the Oda family. When you persuaded you to surrender, although they all came out to contact you, in fact, no one actually opened the gates for you. If Oda Nobunaga's sons grow up, what is the difference between them and Matsudaira Motoyasu of Mikawa? ”

Gao Xianda said: "Then do I want to transfer these fiefs to the old ministers in the family?" Both the Uden Nagasho and the Asahinai Tai have said that their fiefdoms are a bit small. ”

"Seal it to them?" Imagawa Yoshimoto sneered, "When you were fighting on the front line, did they go to the front line to support you?" ”

Gao Xianda shook his head.

"With benefits, they will pounce on them like flies. But in case of danger, no one dares to step forward. Their loyalty to the Imagawa family is not necessarily much better than that of Matsudaira Motoyasu. Imagawa Yoshimoto said, "Since it was Okabe Motoshin who helped you during the raid on Kiyoshu Castle. It's better to just let him be the lord of Cheongju City! Of course, use your commands. ”
