Tokugawa Ieshige received the order and quickly summoned Hitotsubashi Yoshiki and Matsudaira Yoshinaga to discuss.

Tokugawa Iemomichi: Mori Dinghiro, Sanjo Minoru and others were expelled, Kyoto has been calmed, the battle of Saei, Yingyi suffered heavy casualties, and it is imperative to prevent Yingyi from making a comeback and starting the war again. The Satsuma clan has repeatedly begged for 25,000 pounds to be paid, is it acceptable?

Hitotsubashi rejoiced: "General Qiyu, Yingyi's war funds are exhausted, and the supply is not smooth, so it is difficult to do anything within the year. In the case of the change in Shengmai Village, our state has paid 110,000 pounds in advance for the Satsuma Domain; If the war can be eliminated, this mere 25,000 pounds, what if it is a cushion!

Tokugawa Iemomichi: That is, according to the wishes of the Keiki Lord, the warship was carried out by Katsukaishu, and the Satsuma Clan's Okubo Ritsu was followed. After the peace talks with Yingyi are completed, Qingxi and Qingyong can enter Luo to discuss the integration of public and military affairs.

Matsudaira Keito: General Qiyu, the integration of public and military, hand in hand, the matter is big, and the non-general himself to Kyoto cannot achieve the fait accompli.

Tokugawa Iemo Road: The matter of the lock of the port in Yokohama has not yet been negotiated, and the port has been slowed down, and the port is not locked, so it is impossible to face His Majesty the Emperor.

On the morning of December, the Shogun met with Yoshiki Hitotsubashi, the president of political affairs, Yoshinora Matsudaira, the guardian of Kyoto, Yoho Matsuuchi, the lord of the Tosa Domain, Toyodo Yamauchi, and the lord of the Uwajima Domain, Date Muneko.

Filial piety to the emperor: I want to discuss state affairs with Mao Qing, why didn't Mao Qing come? The previous decree was not my intention, but now it is what I am looking forward to. It is hoped that the feudal domains will work together to assist the Kanto, and the country will be fine.

Hitotsubashi rejoiced: Your Majesty, whether or not Yokohama's lock of Hong Kong is a matter of national foundation, and General Kwantung is negotiating with Zhuyi, and the matter is about to come.

Filial piety to the emperor's road: The edict summoned three Shimei and other seven kings, but they were not entered, and the three of them went to stay at will, and they were very cold. The reason for this incident was that the Changzhou Domain was in charge, and the decree was passed that the Choshu Domain, except for one or two people who stayed in the palace, were forbidden to enter Luo. National events cannot be decided in a day. After Maoqing and the head of the Satsuma clan entered Luo, they would negotiate again.

The head of the Chōshū family, Maori, received the decree in person and sighed for a long time.

In May of this year, the Mori Lord dared to be the first to raise troops to fight for the country, and my emperor praised this move to show off the country's prestige overseas! It is extremely hateful that the Kanto Shogunate and the Aizu and Satsuma feudal domains have deceived the Holy Cong and slandered us and caused trouble to the country.

Maori respectfully said: Can the three adults have a good plan to help me?

Three truthful and beautiful roads: In today's situation, only the Son of Heaven can command the princes. The Maori Lord supervised the troops into Los Angeles and admonished them. My emperor gave an order, united the power of the country, and washed Yidi, but nothing could be done! That's true, Maori is a great merit!

Maori respectfully said: "In the words of the three adults, I have a kinship in my heart. I mean, the old country Si Xinnong immediately led the vassal troops into Luo, and implored the former Guan Baiying Si Fuxi and Prince Chiren of the Arisu Chuan Palace to mediate in the middle and beg our emperor to take back his life, how about it?

The Changshu Domain, the Imperial Hanging Takasugi Jinzuo said: The lord of Qiyu, if you are not called into Luo, you will use the army strongly, if you don't succeed, my domain will become the target of the public. This is very dangerous, and I implore the lord to think twice.

The Choshu feudal lord and the Kyoto government seat Hisaka Genrui seconded the proposal, and said: The lord of Qiqi, if there is no imperial edict of our emperor, unless it is absolutely necessary, you must not supervise the troops to enter Luo, so as not to be ashamed. His subordinates, namely Takayoshi Kido, Minoru Yoshida, Miyabe Dingzo, Ishikawa Junjiro, etc., set fire to Luo, took advantage of the chaos to kill Matsudaira Rongbo, Prince Nakagawa Palace and other thieves who caused trouble to the country, and took the opportunity to respectfully ask our emperor to bend to my domain to plan a major event. At that time, the lord can push the boat along the river and carry out the righteousness; Otherwise, our sword blade will have nothing to do with our domain.

Maori respectfully said: My emperor's edict said that the upper and lower levels of the Changzhou Domain, except for one or two people who stayed in the palace, were forbidden to enter Luo. If you stay in Kyoto for a long time, you don't have to take risks. Kido Takayoshi stayed in Kyoto and secretly planned this matter, which was justified.

Kusaka Genrui said: Enlighten the lord, news from Kyoto, my emperor is anxious to enter the Kanto and the daimyo to discuss state affairs, if the matter is successful, my domain is in danger, the lord must urgently ask Kido and others, and plan the transfer of my emperor as soon as possible.

Kyoto Government Seat Governor Kido Takayo received the order, and he was full of sorrow.

Choshu Domain Scholar Yoshida Minoru, Tongyoshioka Masasuke, Higo Domain Priest Miyabe Dingzo, Banshu Domain Priest Otakamata Jiro, Tosa Domain Priest Mochizuki Kameyata, and Ishikawa Junjiro all said: This matter is big, it cannot be done in a day, we will follow the step-by-step process, and secretly raise firearms and sulfur goods and medicines; With the right timing, it's skyrocketing.

Kido Takayo said: The Kwantung general has not arrived, and it is difficult for the public and military forces to become one, so we will sit and watch the changes and wait for the opportunity to move.

Tokugawa Ieshige, the shogun, has not yet locked the port in Yokohama, and has not yet entered Los Angeles. Hitotsubashi Keiki, Matsudaira Yoho, Matsudaira Keinaga, etc., were very worried, and repeatedly urged.

Tokugawa Ieshige was overwhelmed, so on January 8, the first year of the Genji era, he re-entered Kyoto.

Emperor Xiaomei repaired the mountain mausoleum and gave Tokugawa Ieshige two subordinates.

Tokugawa Ieshige thanked him and fixed his words.

Filial piety to the emperor: Since marrying the prince of the palace into Maoqing Kanto, the public and military forces have been one. As a top priority, Mao Qing and I go hand in hand to get through the times together. The controversy between the rebellion and the founding of the country has been more than ten years, and there is still no conclusion, what do the secretaries mean?

Shimazu Hisamitsu, the head of the Satsuma domain, said: Your Majesty, last year, the vassal clan and Yi fought, and the loss was huge. With the current strength of our country, we really can't resist it. It is imperative to open the country, learn from Yi's long skills, develop industry, build ships and cast guns, and slowly figure it out.

The Tosa Domain's lord, Yamochido, and the Uwajima Domain's lord, Date Munekoto, seconded.

When the general saw his post, Ichibashi Qingxi was furious and said: My emperor has repeatedly decreed to wash Yidi, and the general is also negotiating with Yi about the closure of the port, but you are vainly discussing the opening of the country, what is your intention?

Shimazu Hisamitsu was also angry, and said: For more than ten years, the lords of the Kanto region have blindly spoken about the signing of the treaty and the opening of the country, and now it has suddenly changed, I don't know what the generals think when they see the lords?

Ichihashi Qingxi was angry and said: Locking up the port is the established national policy of His Majesty the Emperor and the general.

Shimazu Hisamitsu, Yamamochi Do, Date Munekoto and others looked at each other and left in amazement.

Ichibashi Qingxi disdained it, and said: Your Majesty, because of the matter of Shengmai Village last year, he made peace with Yingyi, and lost 500,000 dollars of foreign silver, which is all due to the Shimazu clan. The 500,000 foreign silver are all from my country. The Shimazu clan didn't say anything, but actually used it to threaten, which is very hateful!

Emperor Komei's Road: In the battle of Saei, the loss of the Satsuma Domain was huge, and Shimazu's actions were also self-preservation. Last year, I drove Changzhou Maori outside the Beijing Gate. Maori father and son have repeatedly sued for grievances, Qingqing thinks, what is the Maori father and son's mind?

Ichibashi rejoiced: Your Majesty, Changzhou Maori is a void and a disaster to the country, and it is so much that people and gods are angry.

Filial piety to the emperor: Qingqing's eyes are like torches, he is well versed in affairs, and he is also a guard of honor. The decree was issued, and Qingqing was appointed as the governor of the forbidden guard on the same day; Yi people are coming, the sea border must be troublesome, and the post of sea defense commander is none other than Qingqing, what does Mao Qing think?

Tokugawa Iemo: Your Majesty's discerning eyes, the candle shines on China, and your subordinates are ashamed. Your Majesty, whether you open the country or lock up the port, but if it can benefit the country, you can give it a try; Changshu or Satsuma, but all those who sincerely assist the country can accept it.

Filial piety to the emperor: Maoqing's words are also reasonable, the sky is late, and the Ming Dynasty will discuss it again.
