In March of the second year of Emperor Tong (1635), Emperor Taichang of the Ming Dynasty was seriously ill, and Xiubao and Emperor Xiaoming visited Shuntian in person.

This tragic emperor who should have been in power for only one month was reigned for eleven years with the earnest teachings of Emperor Wanli and the dedicated assistance of the ministers and Xiubao. During this period, the national reform was further promoted, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, and the Ming Dynasty became stronger. It reached the Pamir Mountains in the west and the Haidong in the east, truly achieving "far from the Han and Tang Dynasties, and ruled the Tang and Song Dynasties". During this period, it was known as the "Taichang Governance".

Japan also made great profits in the development of the Ming Dynasty, actively participated in the Ming Dynasty's external expansion and trade, people's living standards were gradually improving, society became increasingly stable, and the prestige of the court reached an unprecedented height.

Before Emperor Taichang died, he had a secret conversation with Xiubao for a long time. Afterwards, Xiubao was promoted to "King of He", and was appointed as the Taifu, and was granted the title of Hejian Prefecture (nominally), and entrusted Xiubao to assist Emperor Tianqi.

Xiubao was afraid that the court would politely refuse, but at the begging Emperor Taichang, he reluctantly agreed to assist for three years. At the same time, he recommended Yuan Keli, Xiong Tingbi and others to go to Beijing to assist him, and Emperor Taichang agreed one by one.

In November of the fourth year of the Emperor's reign (1637), suddenly heard that Kojima Ran was incurable, and Hideopo asked to return to Japan in advance. Because the internal operation of the Ming Dynasty was stable, Emperor Tianqi was not convenient to keep him, so he gave him a generous reward and allowed him to return.

After arriving at Sakai Port, Hidepo was not allowed to rest, so he hurriedly rushed to the "Meiyuan" in the suburbs of Beijing. This is a villa specially built by Hidepo for Komahime. The word "Mei" originated from the thing Hidepo and Komahime expressed their love in Edo. In this name, it shows how deep the two of them are.

It was late at night when I arrived at "Meiyuan". Since I knew in advance that Xiubao was about to come, the lights inside and outside the garden were already brightly lit. Xiubao ignored his hard work and walked to the dormitory of Komaki under the guidance of the eunuch.

The eunuch carefully opened the door and saw five or six women sitting around the bed under the dim candlelight in the room. The sound of sobs from time to time seemed particularly harsh at this time.

"Your Majesty is back!" Seeing that Xiu Bao was standing at the door, the women quickly turned around and saluted Xiu Bao respectfully.

"No gift," Shuibo said as he came to the bed, and then he realized that except for Sakura, all his wives and concubines were present.

"You know Sakura's body. She has been coughing more than a few days ago, so I asked her to go back first." Perhaps because she was afraid that Shuibo would misunderstand, Kikuhi explained first.

"I know." Xiubao didn't mean to blame him, but felt pity: "Stop talking about her, your body is also... Alas, go back and rest first, there is me here."

"Your Majesty..." Chizi was about to say something, but was stopped by Kikuhime.

"Listen to Your Majesty, go back and rest first." Juji winked at everyone, Ajiang understood it, and after Xiang Xiubao bid farewell, he pulled Jizi out with Juji.

After carefully closing the door, Kikuhime said to Ajiang and Jizi, "Let them stay alone for a while, after all, she..."

Hearing this, everyone started to sob again. After all, besides Kikumi, Koji was the first one to enter the door. He also took good care of all the sisters on weekdays. During his illness, Kikumi also tried his best to handle it, which had already won everyone's respect.

Perhaps it was alarmed by the noise just now that Koji opened his eyes with difficulty, and then he realized that Shuibo was right in front of him.

"It's Your Majesty, Your Majesty is back." He laughed with joy for a moment, but was immediately interrupted by his own cough.

Xiu Bao hurriedly walked forward and said nervously: "I'm back, I'm here to watch you and never go anywhere."

There were two lines of tears in the corner of Ju Ji's eyes, but she still smiled: "Don't do this, it's important to do it, I'm fine."

"Don't think so much. Man Ren is now handling government affairs properly. I have completely let go. Today, I will be here to accompany you. When you recover from your illness, I will take you to enjoy the plum blossoms."

Hearing this, Koji smiled even brighter. She coughed and held Xiubao's hand tightly, trying to feel the temperature of his body: "Your Majesty, since 'that thing', we haven't talked so close for a long time."

The "thing thing" that Komaki said was the "Gengshen Rebellion" in the fourth year of Yongning (1620). The riots caused by the "Enren Order" were the two powerful vassals in the northeast, namely the Yamagata vassal of the Supreme Clan and the Sendai vassal of the Ida clan.

Among them, the Yamagata vassal, which was actually 780,000 yuan tall, was eventually dismembered into five parts, and the main vassal was only 330,000 stones left. When the Lord Shishang Yoshikazu was forced to retire, the position of governor of the family was transferred to his young legitimate son Shishang Yoshikawa, and the Supreme Clan was also unable to recover.

Komahime is the daughter of the Supreme Yoshimitsu, the sister of Yoshimitsu, and the aunt of Yoshimitsu. More importantly, she is also the mother of Yoshimitsu's wife Tenmanhime. This girl, who was once smart and clever, even pleased Hidebo and Komahime, was regarded as a treasure by the Supreme Yoshimitsu and as an important link to strengthen relations with the shogunate at that time.

But ironically, even with so many relationships, Hideobo decided to take action against the Supreme Family. It is no wonder that the Supreme Family couldn't accept it for a while and rose up to resist.

In the face of the absolute strength of the shogunate, the Supreme Family ended with a crushing defeat and the two families who were once close were alienated. Although Yoshihiro forced each other to die and tried his best to protect Tenman Ji, the Supreme Resident's sarcasm made Tenman Ji quiet and depressed. In the end, at Komaki's request, Hideo had no choice but to take him back to Kotoyama to live.

How could Hideboa not know what it means to take the attack on the Supreme Family? But he had to do this. Only in this way can those Daming who is slutty about the new policy and hide in the dark have no words, and can establish the shogunate WeChat and maintain the stability of the rule.

Of course, later Hideopo also compensated the Sunshine clan, not only acknowledged that Sunshine clan was the genealogical dynasty, but also issued a "A separate letter of grace" later.

Soon, Yoshihiko died of illness, and Yoshihiko was able to completely take charge of the family business. He broke through the resistance at home and went to Kyoto nine times to ask for the return of Tenman Hime. Under the touch of true love, under the bitter begging of Tenman Hime, Hideobo and Komaki finally welcomed Tenman Hime with Shiki. At this time, ten years had passed since Tenman Hime left Yamagata Castle, and their love was once a legend.

After Emperor Xiaoming ascended the throne, he appointed Tianmanji as the inner prince, and at the same time broke the rule that "the Guan family and the Tsinghua family can be granted the title of Duke" and granted the title of Duke of the Shang Shang Yixing as Duke of the Yuguo. Such an honor also allowed the grudges of that year to disappear.
