Chapter 6 The Uninvited Guest

Since they are all sensible people, there is no need to hide it from them: "Nanoe's five counties say that they are big or small. Although the stone is nearly 400,000 stones high, there are not many places we can choose. As I said just now, the lower three counties are not suitable for building large cities, and Kanzaki County is excluded by me for political reasons. Dongpusheng County is too close to the border and naturally cannot be used by me. Then the only satisfactory area is Xipusheng County. If the city is built here, if there is such a good geographical condition without using the former site of Antu, there can only be two explanations."

"Two explanations?" Takato Fujido asked. In his opinion, it was impossible for a 17-year-old boy to think about the problem so thoroughly. Therefore, when Hideo further developed his thinking, he was naturally deeply attracted to see what else he could say.

Xiubao smiled faintly, pointed to his head and said, "Either I am a mediocre person who is incompetent and doesn't play the clock, or I did it on purpose and didn't want to bring the city too close to Biwa Lake. What do you think Taige thinks is the reason?"

Takato Fujido thought for a moment and agreed: "The lord is right. Since Taige can deliver this critical place to you, it means his trust in your ability. If we do not build Jucheng in Antu as he expected, then Taige will definitely think that you deliberately want to keep a distance from his direct territory. If this is true, your suspicion towards you will be greatly aggravated. At that time, it may be detrimental to the development of our family and may even cause unnecessary crises for our family."

Hearing this, Shima Qingxing hammered the table with great anger and said angrily: "Isn't Taige's intention very obvious? It's just to trap you in Antu City."

Shubo smiled at him and signaled to him to calm down: "You can't say that, after all, I am now a great name with one million stones. Even if he is his nephew who swore allegiance to him, it is still not enough to eliminate its doubts. Because of Shuji's previous lessons, any factors that pose a threat to Shimaru must be eliminated, which is also one of the main reasons why he will take back Hikaru."

"Then do you mean that Taige is using this to test you?" Or Fujido's reaction is quick.

Hideopo continued: "This can only be said to be one of the reasons. You think that if I am absolutely honest with him, there is no need to be in Omi and Taige directly under the territory. Even if I am transferred to Ozawa or Ise, I can achieve this goal. Why choose Omi, the key place where the Gyeonggi is locked? The main reason is that I hope that as a relative Daime of the Toyotomi family, I will keep this gateway to Gyeonggi for him, and naturally it is also for the future stability of the Osaka regime and the safety of Shimaru. Therefore, this city contains Taige's attention and hope for me. We must build this city well, even if we spend a lot of money and energy, but remember that the scale and momentum of the city must not exceed that of Osaka Castle, which is also very important. I don't want others to think that I have the idea of ​​Quwo Daijin."

In fact, the scale of Hideo's residence will not exceed that of Osaka Castle. After all, Hideyoshi built it with the national daimyo and 40,000 migrant workers and took more than two years to build it.

Since the governance of the five Minami-Ei County is urgent, Hideopo ordered Takato Fujido to hurry up and build it. During this time, he still handled government affairs in Yamato-gun Yama Castle.

In mid-August, three months after Hideji was exiled to Takanoyama, Hideyoshi finally issued a series of punishment announcements against Hideji's party.

Among them, the lord of Ishishi, Matsuzaka Castle, Hattori Ichitachi, Yokosuka Castle, Iwami Shintoki, and Ogaki Castle, Morike, and Daeguchi Castle, were forced to seduce or exiled; the pen of the five-paced poem Asano Nagamasa has always been incompatible with Ishida, and this time he was persecuted, so his legitimate son Yukinaga was exiled to the county; Tadaki Hosokawa was also suspected of having a financial relationship with Hideji, and later pleaded with Gen Matsuzaki and received a timely assistance of 100 gold pieces to survive this disaster, Tadaki was grateful to Tokugawa Ieyasu. The Ohashi and Ida family, who were close to Hideji, were also severely warned; Hideaki Kobayawa was even confiscated the 100,000 stone territory of Kameyama.

The next step is to punish the Hideji clan. I don’t know whether it was provoked by Ishida Mizunai or Hideyoshi’s wife, concubines, and children, all of Hideji were ordered to behead him at Rijo Kawahara for the sake of killing the roots.

As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar. I thought that after Hideji was exiled, the men in the clan would become monks and women would become monks. No one expected that they would be so cruel. The daimyo who married her daughter to Hideji asked the celebrities around Hideji to plead with him, hoping to spare his daughter's life. But for some reason, Hideji was determined to kill them, perhaps because she was afraid that Hideji's offspring would cause trouble in a hundred years.

Just the fourth day after the news came out, Junshan City welcomed a rare guest.

At that time, Xiu Bao had just had dinner and was about to go back to the study to handle government affairs. At this time, a young surname came in and informed: "Report to the lord, the best servant came to visit."

"The best Yoshikami?" Hideoba frowned, "It should be for Komaki to come so late."

After learning that Hideji had been executed in one family, the most anxious one was the Supreme Yoshimitsu. Four years ago, due to Hideji's request, he had to agree to marry his fifteen-year-old daughter Komahime to Hideji. However, he knew that Hideji had arrived in Kyoto under the custody of Yoshimitsu. At this time, he felt that Hideji was going to attack his adopted son, but under pressure, he had to refuse and wait for the good day of the good day to send Komahime to Juledi.

But before he could reach the good day he mentioned, Hideji was deprived of his official position and exiled to Takanoyama. Originally, Yoshimitsu should have been thankful, but Hideyoshi still knew about this marriage and insisted on counting Komaki among Hideji's wives and concubines. Yoshimitsu hurriedly asked Tokawa Ieyasu, Maeda Takaya and others to plead for him, hoping to save his daughter's life.

Unfortunately, no matter how these heavyweights pleaded for dissuasion, Hideyoshi refused to give in, and even gave a death order, killing all thirty-nine people three days later. In the near despair, the powerful "Yuzhou Fox" had to come to Junyama Castle to ask Hideopo for help.

The Supreme Yiguang came to the study under the guidance of the little surname. As soon as he entered the door, he bowed respectfully: "The Supreme Master Yiguang of the humble position met His Highness Huangmen."

Through the dim candlelight, Xiubao could still see the wrinkles on his face and feel the sorrow in his heart. I guess he broke his legs and fucked him for the sake of Koji? No matter how powerful a general is, he is still an ordinary person when facing family affection.

Xiubao got up and returned the salute. After he sat at the table, he asked with concern: "It's so late, what's the matter with His Highness coming?" The Supreme Yoshikawa replied with a sad face: "I guess Your Highness already knows the punishment announcement of Taige's punishment for the Guan Bai clan?" "Yes," Xiubao sighed, "I thought that forcing Guan Bai to retreat like this could save his and his clan members' lives, but I didn't expect that this would be the result."

Suddenly, Yoshihiro stood up from the couch and knelt down suddenly: "I'll ask your highness to have a life!" Although Hideopo knew that he would beg him, he didn't expect that it would be such a great gift. Alas, it's really pitiful to parents all over the world.

"What are you doing at the servant? Get up quickly and say something!" Hideopo hurriedly helped him up and said seriously: "I know that your highness's little daughter, Kojiki, is also among them. She is about the same age as me. When encountering such a thing, how can a father not be heartbroken? However, Taige has already spoken, and even His Highness Tokugawa spoke is useless, and it is me, a boy with no qualifications."

The Supreme Yoshimitsu thought that Hideopo was willing to refuse, thinking that he complained that he did not come to me first but to look for Tokugawa Ieyasu, so he explained nervously: "Please forgive me. Huyi thought that you would not have to trouble you with such a small matter, so who would have thought about it when you went to the inner palace to look for..."
