Before talking with Hideo, Tokugawa Ieyasu still had some small abacus in his mind. Although surrender was a foregone conclusion, the extent of the post-war treatment would be not a fixed number.

First of all, although Ieyasu was the main force in fighting against Hideo's Toyotomi coalition, he still sent troops only after receiving Osaka's order of attack, and there were also knots from Maeda, Ukita and others on the order of attack. If they really wanted to pursue it, how could these Hideo's allies be separated? It was precisely with this that he felt that Hideo would not kill him, so as not to harm Chiyu.

Secondly, although some important cities in the northern part of Tokugawa Territory have fallen one after another, most of them are concentrated in the central and northern parts of the Musashi Kingdom, while the cities in Izu, Sagami and Fangmatsu have not been conquered yet, especially the Tokugawa clan's main castle Edo Castle is still firmly held in the hands of Tokugawa Hidetaki and his important officials. Ieyasu believes that, except for the Tokugawa clan's Tokugawa clan's Tokugawa clan, most of the troops of Tokugawa clan are restrained in Ueno, so all the cities in Tokugawa clan cannot be destroyed in a short time. At this time, he proposed to surrender to Hidepo. As the backstage of Tokugawa Hidera, Hidepo, considering the reputation of Tokugawa clan, will not allow Asano Nagamasa to continue to attack Tokugawa clan's Tokugawa clan, causing the tragedy of Kawagoe Castle to repeat. Therefore, he will be eager to reach an agreement with Ieyasu to reduce the punishment in exchange for Kawago clan's Kawago clan's Kawago clan's Kawago clan. This is also the first bargaining chip Ieyasu thinks can take.

Finally, there are the letters and affidavits in Ieyasu's hands that are interconnected with daimyos across the country. He used this as his biggest bargaining chip, especially the letters with Kuroda, Shimazu, Kobayagawa, Satake (Mabi), and Ieta, which can definitely subvert the situation in the post-war country. Therefore, Ieyasu hopes that these daimyos can plead for Tokugawa in the post-war assessment in exchange for Tokugawa's "secret mouth".

However, with the almost assassination on the road and the words of Shuipo just now, Tokugawa Ieyasu's mood also fell to the bottom. It seems that the daimyo thought that the most direct and easiest way to make him keep his mouth shut is to keep his mouth shut forever.

"Uncle Mansion, if you haven't figured it out yet, I'll tell you something." Seeing that Tokugawa Ieyasu was silent for a long time, Hideo decided to add another fire: "There is a saying in China that is 'The sky is high and the emperor is far away'. We are far away from Kyoro, and the news is inconvenient. In addition, the Maori family still controls Osaka Castle at this time, and Kanto has not yet been completely pacified. Therefore, some daimyos suggested to me that in order to avoid the long nights and dreams, we will execute you on the spot to eliminate future troubles."

"Execution on the spot?" When Tokugawa Ieyasu heard this, he was shocked and sweated: "Your Highness, you must not be trapped by those guys. If I die, it will fulfill their wishes. You don't know that they are far from being as obedient and respectful as they appear..."

"So what? In the inner court, think carefully. What qualifications are there for Tokugawa clan now compared with other daimyos? Those who want you to exterminate the clan are at least bets on both sides. After the war, they are at most capable of being safe or slightly reduced. Some daimyos even made great contributions in the Battle of Hirahara and a series of battles before and after. Such daimyos must be rewarded after the war. Compared with them, what is the Tokugawa clan now? If they jointly request you to be executed, what reason do I have to refuse?"

"I have 20,000 troops in Jilun City, and at least five countries in Kanto are in my hands! If Your Highness executes me, it will inevitably cause a bloody storm. Will Your Highness bear to suffer the world again?!" Tokugawa Ieyasu stared at Hideoho fiercely, and was extremely excited.

"I did have some thoughts about this before, but just now, not long before you entered the city, some daimyos volunteered to lead their respective troops as vanguards to attack Mirvan City after they were executed. As for the subsequent attack on Kanto, they were willing to do their best. However, I think if the 20,000 people in Mirvan City were eliminated, the cities in Kanto would not continue to persist. Even if there were one or two cities to defend in the end, it would not be able to recover the general trend. Moreover, those daimyos took the lead in charge and would not have much impact on the reputation of Toyotomi."

"Damn it, those guys have really invested a lot in order to kill people to silence them!" Tokugawa Ieyasu said to himself angrily: "Breaking Mirvana Castle and Edo Castle will become a contribution of theirs after the war. No, they must not succeed!"

"Your Highness, you don't know what those guys are thinking, right?" Tokugawa Ieyasu was making his final struggle.

"So what if you know, so what if you don't know? Now that's it, this shouldn't be the matter that the inner government needs to pay attention to." Xiubo replied.

"Then what do you think I should pay attention to?" Although Tokugawa Ieyasu already had the answer in his heart, he still didn't give up.

"How to go to Osaka alive under the frame-up of these great reputations and then preserve the family name for the Tokugawa clan. This is what you should pay attention to. As for what I think, I have already explained it to you just now, and it depends on your attitude." Hideoba took a sip of tea slowly and took the opportunity to glance at Ieyasu with his own light. Seeing his frown, he realized that things could be done.

"I understand. As a sinful person, if he has no value in use, can he not leave here alive?" Ieyasu's voice was very low.

"You can leave at any time, but I will not send someone to protect you anymore. After all, there will be a lot of things to deal with next." Xiu Bao's words were enough to show his attitude.

"Haha, Youfu, I was still worried about defeating you before. After this conversation, I was convinced." Tokugawa Ieyasu sighed deeply and bowed solemnly to Hideopo, "Justice said just now that I wanted to make a deal with my family. Now, I think this deal can be reached."

"It's so good," Hideopo nodded slightly, and a smile that ordinary people couldn't detect was revealed on the corner of his mouth: "Since that's the case, everyone from the Tokugawa family can also attend tonight's banquet."

"Your Highness is a blessing, I am a little tired, I don't know if I can..."

"Of course," Xiubao clapped his hands, and the two people approached and walked into the hall. "You will take the inner palace and all the adults to the room they prepared for rest before, and do not neglect."

Ieyasu slowly stood up, and after saying goodbye to Xiubao, he walked towards the door, but just as he was about to step out of the hall, he stopped and turned to Xiubao and asked, "Your Highness, how are you going to be the next time? I will meet him, I hope you can allow it."

"Father saw your son, this is your family matter. There is no reason to stop him. You go and rest first. I will let the major general go later." Xiu Bao agreed readily.
