Chapter 628
Ignoring Sakura Rinko and Asuka's shock, Lucius directly told them about his plan, and after listening to Lucius's plan, they felt even more shocked.
It turned out that as early as when Sakura Rinko deliberately revealed her identity and revealed her whereabouts, Lucius had already begun to think about the series of troubles that might be invited, and had already made a qiē arrangement, just waiting for those guys who had thoughts about Sakura Rinko to jump out.
Just like Asukina guessed, Lucius wants to use Sakura Rinko as bait to lure out the unstable factors around the Tokugawa family and Sakura Rinko, so as to solve them once and for all.
For Tokugawa Iehiko, he sent Iga Naru to lead the Iga family ninjas in order to test the strength of Lucius, an outsider, so as to formulate a strategy to deal with the strength shown by Lucius.
Lucius simply gave the other party a plan and used thunder to solve the people sent by the other party, so as to deter Tokugawa Isahiko and make him dare not provoke him lightly, so as to ensure that they can develop steadily in Chiba, and also ensure the attack on Saitama and Ibaraki.
"It's a multi-pronged approach, and it may seem a bit risky, but in fact, with me, you won't be in any danger, but you can buy some time for Oda Nobumitsu and Taiyuan Yukisai. ”
After listening to Lucius's account, Asukina asked with some puzzlement: "Are you so sure that Oda Nobumitsu and Taiyuan Yukisai Tamen can take Saitama and Ibaraki in such a short period of time?"
Lucius nodded confidently and said, "Naturally, if they can't take the two daimyo mansions of Saitama and Ibaraki while the ninjas are attacking Chiba Castle, then they will live up to my expectations of them, and they will not be worthy of continuing to command the forces I gave them." ”
Speaking of this, Lucius followed up and said: "By the way, I forgot to say that Tokugawa Isahiko has never failed because of this group of ninjas. Give up coveting Chiba Castle and you, the Emperor, and he will definitely send new troops again, so that he can give Oda and Taiyuan some time again. ”
"You ......" Asukina suddenly felt annoyed when she heard this, "You are clearly using His Majesty the Emperor as bait to focus the attention of the Tokugawa family on Chiba, and then you take the opportunity to take down all the surrounding daimyos." ”
Lucius grinned and said, "Hehe, you're right, this is my plan, in fact, you should thank me." ”
"Thank you, why?" Asujina was said a little inexplicably.
But Sakura Rinko reacted quickly. He stood up and bowed to Lucius and thanked him: "I really want to thank you, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to do better, maybe if I lose the ministers and them, I can only tie my hands and take them, or continue to throw myself into the sea." ”
Seeing that Sakura Rinko understood her intentions, Lucius smiled and waved his hand: "Hehe, you're welcome, in fact, this matter is beneficial to both of us." It can be said to be a mutually beneficial thing. ”
Seeing Lucius and Sakura's Rinko playing dumb riddles, Assuna was a little puzzled, "What the hell are you talking about, why do I really want to not understand at all?"
Sakura Rinko smiled and leaned over to Asukina's side, muttering a few words in Asukina's ear in a low voice, telling Asukina the truth of the matter. The latter immediately looked at Lucius in surprise, and said incredulously for a long time: "You, you actually want to give all the forces defeated by Oda and Taiyuan to His Majesty the Emperor?"
Lucius knew what Sakura Rinko had told Asuna. He nodded and said, "Naturally, I said a long time ago that I have no interest in Fuso. I'm just going to use your here as a pedal to allow me to go down the lì into Middle-earth. ”
Assuna still felt a little incredible: "However, Oda and Taiyuan are now strong and strong, if they conquer Saitama and Ibaraki again, then the strength of the two of them alone will not be underestimated, and if they are given some time, their strength will not be lost to the Tokugawa family at all." ”
"Hehe, isn't that great? With the support of these two forces under your command, I believe that you should be able to secure the position of the emperor soon, and it is only a matter of time before you unify the whole of Fuso. ”
The unification of Fuso, that is the dream of many generations of emperors of Sakura Rinko's ancestors, but unfortunately almost no emperor has succeeded, it can be said that it seems to be a whole Fuso country, in fact, it has always been divided into many countries, and the entire Fuso is distributed in more than 60 countries, large and small.
These countries were called "Reikoku", and they were all under the control of the Emperor, but in fact each Reikoku was governed by a separate daimyo as a lord.
Even after the shogunate grew in power and controlled almost the entire Fuso country, most of the daimyo of the Shogunate no longer obeyed the emperor's orders, and many times they were the monarchs of the Shogunate, and even the powerful shogunate had no way to deal with them.
It can be said that being born in the imperial family of Fuso Province was the luck of the emperors of Fuso Province, because they had a supreme status that no one else could match, and as descendants of Amaterasu, they had a status that was almost unmatched in Fuso, and everyone had to worship them like gods.
But at the same time, it is their misfortune, because as emperors, they are more like the gods of the country than like the monarch who rules the country.
The gods are high up and are worshipped by people, but in fact the gods are only used to worship, and when the belief is missing, the gods become unimportant.
It's like the current Fuso, faith has long been completely shattered, the whole country is in war, everyone wants to become the dominant party, or even the existence of Fusang, in this case, the original binding force of faith and gods is gone.
When desires and ambitions are unshackled, turmoil becomes inevitable, and the emperor, who seems to have a unique position in Fuso, is just a weight in the hands of others, a banner used by the shogunate to command the heroes of Fuso, and is held and waved in the hands of every ambitious and powerful person.
It seems to be high, but often they can't even decide their own fate, and they are always just puppets in the hands of others, their voices are not heard by anyone, and even those who hear them will not take their voices to heart.
Sakura Rinko once clearly remembered that when her father was alive, she once fell to the ground like a child after her mother's Emiya was drunk one day, crying about the suffering he had experienced and the bitterness that he could not relieve in his heart, which was Sakura Rinko's deepest impression of her father.
It was also that time when she saw her father at that time that Sakura Rinko still wanted to do something after being forced to sit in the position of emperor, trying to change the predicament faced by the imperial family.
As a result, Sakura Rinko spent more than ten years, from a little girl to a woman with a unique charm, during which I don't know how much hardship I suffered, and finally succeeded in establishing her own power, originally thinking that if she continued to develop, she would one day be able to compete with the Tokugawa family.
But in the end, she didn't get that opportunity, Tokugawa Ihiko learned that she had secretly formed her own forces, and destroyed the forces built by Sakura Rinko by thunder, and even forced Sakura Rinko to jump into the sea, but also to deal with Sakura Rinko who threatened the rule of the Tokugawa family.
Sakura Rinko's escape from death is definitely not a good thing for the Tokugawa family, so Tokugawa Isahiko will not hesitate to make a move on Sakura Rinko, and he will definitely kill Sakura.
As the emperor, Sakura Rinko, in the face of the collapse of her faith, even if she is a descendant of Amaterasu, she can't get any help, so she can only face a qiē by herself.
Lucius sighed and said, "I really don't know, did you talk about the ancestors you deified at the beginning, and you might face such a situation?"
Hearing Lucius's sigh, Sakura Rinko's expression became a little solemn, she lowered her head and thought for a long time, and finally said helplessly: "I'm afraid that my ancestors never thought that we, as royals, would fall into this kind of fate and be manipulated by our own courtiers." ”
Lucius smiled at Sakura Rinko's calmness: "Hehe, if you want to change, it is also a very important thing to change your status in the hearts of the people. ”
Sakura-Rin looked at Lucius with some bewilderment, and the latter continued: "Break the pretense of descendants of your gods, or think of yourself as gods, and really go among the people, and let your people know that you are with them." ”
Lecius sat down in front of the fireplace, picked up the teacup on the table at hand, took a sip of the tea that Mingtang had just added for him, and then leaned back on the sofa chair: "The gods are high up, which will make the people feel unreal, only when you take off the costume of the gods, can you really get the support of the people, and those who win the hearts of the people can win the world." ”
Sakura Rinko was stunned when she heard this, she had actually heard this sentence before, and remembered that it was a teacher from Eastern Middle-earth, who was later given death by Tokugawa Iehiko.
And before the death of that Middle-earth teacher, he once said something similar to Sakura Rinko, telling Sakura Rinko that if she wants to break the control of the Tokugawa family and truly restore the rule of the imperial power, she must first make the emperor a human.
Now listening to Lucius say the same thing again, Sakura Rinko couldn't help but think of that teacher again, recalling all the things before, Sakura Rinko felt that she seemed to be very sorry for the teacher from Middle-earth, that teacher sincerely assisted her, but Sakura Rinko did not listen to all the other party's opinions.
Thinking of this, Sakura Rinko couldn't help muttering to herself: "Perhaps, maybe if I had realized earlier and lost the inherent thinking that the emperor is a god earlier, I might not be in the situation I am in today." ”
Hearing Sakura's words, Lucius stood up abruptly and said with a smile: "Hahaha, it's not too late for you to realize now, now is a chance for you to be close to the people, it depends on whether you are willing to do it, if you do, then you will really move towards a new beginning."
