Chapter 124 The best candidate
"Does the lord plan to help his subordinates restore their family name?" Qingsheng held Xiubao's hand even harder, his lips trembled slightly, and tears couldn't stop flowing out.
Xiubao nodded and replied: "It is certain to restore your original status, but this is not as simple as 'restored's name'."
"If I am the master of the Takeda family, I can restore the name of the Takeda family. Everything is natural. Is there any problem?"
"Now, with my strength, you can definitely restore the use of Takeda Seedling, but this does not mean that you will inherit the position of Takeda Family." Hideo reminded.
"How do you say this?" Haruka's excitement was restrained and he asked carefully: "My subordinate is the second son of Mr. Katsura. After his brother's death, I should inherit the position of the Takeda family as the head. Isn't this very reasonable?"
"Tada Nobuyoshi, have you considered him?" Hideo reminded softly, "As far as I know, he is currently the recognized governor of Takeda's family."
When he mentioned this person, Haruka suddenly let go of Hideopo's hand and cursed regardless of etiquette: "This yellow-haired boy is worthy of being the governor of Takeda Family? His mother is just the adopted daughter of Nobuko Aiyama, and Nobuko Aiyama is just the brother-in-law of his father. With this kind of in-law relationship, how could he be able to sit firmly as the governor of Takeda Family?"
"This is a bit far-fetched, but you forgot a little bit. He is still the son of the Edo Uchi Mansion. With this relationship, no matter how hard it is, no one dares to point fingers. You have been in the Tokugawa family for seven years. I believe you can see this clearly." Through Haruka's reaction, Hideopo could be sure that he understood his situation and knew that Ieyasu was Nobuki's backstage. It was precisely because of this that he tried to convince Hideopo, hoping that he could stand on his side and compete with Nobuki.
Sure enough, Kyuki was like a ball that was only deflated. He suddenly sagged and sat on the ground and sighed: "You are right. It is because of the support of the inner court that Nobuyoshi was able to become the governor of the Takeda family and inherit the bloodline of Silla Saburo. But this doesn't make sense. The bloodline of the direct line still exists, but the side branches inherit the Zong family. It's simply unreasonable."
"You are wrong," Hideopo shook his head: "In today's world, strength is the truth. Because of this, Taige forced Yuki Haruka to drive away his adopted son whom he had been raising for more than ten years, and made Hideyasu the legitimate son, so that the inner mansion could welcome the side branch to the Takeda Sorai family, and abandon you. Even the first Duke of Shingen, who asked Duke Katsurai to inherit the Suwa family, rather than the eldest son of Ryuwangmaru? No one can blame others for this. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for being weak and being slaughtered."
"My subordinates understand," said Haruka lowered his head and replied in disappointment: "It's all his lack of strength, which has caused the orthodox bloodline of the Takeda family to be cut off. I am the sinner of the Takeda family."
The so-called "carrot and big stick" is a blow to Qingsheng. Naturally, he has to give him some sweetness. Only in this way can he remember his kindness. Thinking of this, Hideopo comforted him with a smile: "Although you have come to this point, no matter how much you think, it will be useless. Instead of giving up on yourself, it is better to serve me well. One day, my strength exceeds that of the inner palace, and then it will be the time for you to regain the governor of Takeda's family."
"From now on, I will do my best to assist the lord and go through fire and water without hesitation!" Qingsheng bowed and bowed heavily to Xiubao to show his loyalty. From this we can see that the bait thrown by Xiubao is still very tempting.
Although I knew that Keika's worship was largely due to considerations for restoring the family name, Hideo was still very satisfied. At least for a long time after that, Keika would be a powerful general under his command, greatly improving the combat effectiveness of his family. Over time, it is difficult to guarantee that the arrogant Takeda family's survivors would not really integrate into their own group. Only then will the relationship between the monarch and the ministers be truly established.
After encouraging Qingsheng for a few words, Xiubao asked him to go back to his room to rest. Before leaving, Xiubao warned him to be as low-key as possible from now on and never be caught by many families. Therefore, it is not convenient to hand over the heavy responsibility of the Mingying mission this time.
Although Haruka was a little unwilling to give up, he still agreed. After all, with the ability of Honda Tada, he could definitely convince most of Daming to oppose him. Instead of making trouble for himself, it would be better to give up and give Hidea a face.
The next morning, everyone came to the Imperial Palace again, and they were still discussing and discussing matters. Since Haruka said he was sick, Tadarin and Tadao did not feel embarrassed. Like yesterday, they led the Tokugawa generals to participate in the discussion.
Seeing that everyone was not affected by yesterday's unhappiness, Xiuyuan was relieved. He had already had a suitable candidate for whom he sent to discuss peace, so he took the lead in speaking after everyone arrived: "Master Huiqiong from Anguo Temple in our family is well versed in the way of peace. If he takes action, he will definitely achieve twice the result with half the effort."
When hearing the daimyoshi of Akinoji Temple, a considerable number of daimyoshi nodded in agreement. Indeed, Hyeki, who came from the Anyun Takeda clan, was the most famous diplomatic monk in the late Warring States period. He first used his diplomatic skills to reach harmony with the Otomo family. Later, during the Honnoji Change, he saw that Hideyoshi had to hurry back to Kitani and negotiate peace with Hideyoshi at a favorable condition to the Mori family. In the end, he only exchanged for the Mori family's peace at a very small price such as Kiyomizu Soji's septum. He also received a reward of 60,000 stones from Iyu, and participated in many decisions of the center as a close minister of Hideyoshi. From then on, he transformed himself into the most glorious monk in the Atsu Momoyama era.
But at this moment, Okubo Tadaru stood up and raised objections to Hidetomoto: "The foreign ministers do not doubt Master Huiqiong's ability, but Nakanoyan is the young master of the Tokugawa family after all, so this matter should be left to our Tokugawa family to solve it ourselves."
"You can't say that," the bald monk sitting next to Xiuyuan bowed and retorted: "Nakanayan is the young master of the Tokugawa family. I don't deny it, but because of this, I can't leave this matter to you."
"Old monk, what do you mean? Can only Huiqiong, take on this important task?" Honda Tadao was depressed and stared at the number one diplomatic monk of the Warring States Period with a complaint.
After hearing Huiqiong's words, Zhonglin thought for a moment and there was something else: "Is the master afraid that we will act voluntarily because of Zhong Nayan's special identity, so that Mingjun can take the opportunity to seize the weak point?"
"That's true," Huiqiong nodded, "Similarly, the peacekeepers should not be selected from the Western Army."
"Why is this? Master, are you not sure?" Xiuyuan was a little confused.
"I can mediate a feud like Maori and Otomo, how could I be afraid of those Ming troops?" Huiqiong looked at Xiuyuan and smiled: "It's just that among the envoys sent by the Ming army to Pyeongze, there is an old friend of His Highness. With him, I can't guarantee that he will not be hurt even if I can bring Nakanayan back."
"Old friend?" Soo-won asked.
"Can your Highness know Yang Yuan?" Hui Qiong said slowly.
"Yang Yuan from Nanyuan City?" Xiuyuan said in surprise: "Will he discuss peace on behalf of the Ming army this time?"
Huiqiong nodded: "It was the Yang Yuan who was beaten to flee by you. Although this time it was not a regular envoy, if we sent someone to come, with his hatred for the Western Route Army, he would probably pour all his anger on Zhong Nayan. By then, even if the peace agreement was successful, the result would probably not be satisfactory."
"So that's it." Xiubao and Zhonglin couldn't help but sigh in unison: "I am really worthy of being the most respected diplomatic monk in Taige. I really can't think of so much. Then according to your wishes, the envoy of the Ming camp this time..."
