After Oguri Tadjun returned to Edo, he immediately reported the situation of his mission to the shogunate. Lord Wakatoshi, who was on duty, asked Oguri Tadjun how the White Lord was doing and what do you think of Naohide.

"The desperadoes are gathered together, and Izusuke is willing to show courtesy to the corporal."

Mr. Wakato is very happy when he hears this. You can use this to fool others, but if you say it in front of me, you are wrong. You, Oguri and Horinao, are as good as wearing a pair of hakama (Wufu pants).

The young Confucian scholar called Edo Hideryu, you and Naohide Hori are the "Three Swordsmen of Orchidology". Oops, what's going on? Could it be that after blackmail failed in the north and then turned against each other? There's something inside. I really want to

Ask carefully.

Of course Oguri had his reasons for doing this. In the past, he and Mr. Egawa Tanan always wanted to transfer Naohide back to Edo, so they praised Naohide every chance they got. But now, hasn't the situation changed? Gongfang Jiaqing rushed to do it before he died.

The senior middlemen issued a decree to promote Zhixiu to serve the distant country and at the same time let him "serve the public for ten years" in the White Lord. Therefore, no matter how many good words he said, he could not get Zhixiu back, and naturally there was no need to continue to advocate Zhixiu.

Moreover, when we arrived at White Lord this time, Oguri's tiger body shook many times. Naohide not only changed his customs and hooked up with his subordinates, but also boldly attacked the Lucian stronghold. Why don't you hurry up and cut him off now? Don't hurry up and get rid of it.

No matter how big the hat is, Naohide has to lose it.

Of course, it is impossible for Oguri and Egawa to distance themselves even if they want to. One is a mentor and the other is a supporter considered by the outside world. Unless these two come forward to report Naohide, there is no way to escape the relationship - so many years of ups and downs,

You really think everyone else is a fool.

However, Oguri said that Shirozu and Naohide "desperate people gathered together, and Izusuke was willing to show mercy to the corporal." This is not a lie. He ran outside the territory and actively attacked Lucia. He said that "desperados" like Shirozu were light-hearted and daring.

It is only appropriate; and for what Naohideo and his wife did, it is not appropriate to say "courteous and virtuous corporal", but it is more accurate to say that they share the joys and sorrows!

They live in an ordinary wooden house, wear ordinary clothes, and eat nothing special. They can do it themselves without having to be served by others, and they also fight in battles themselves. It is said that the couple is always close to the people. This is not sharing joys and sorrows.

Sharing joys and sorrows may seem like nothing, but only those who understand know how terrible it is.

There is a story in "Historical Records? Biography of Sun Tzu Wu Qi". It is said that Wu Qi loved his soldiers as much as his son. He once sucked the abscess on the back of a sick soldier. As a result, the soldier's mother was not only unhappy but burst into tears after hearing this. It was really not touching, but

It was the mother who was afraid - Wu Qi had sucked sores for her head of the family before, but the child's father "couldn't turn his back" during the war. He only knew how to move forward but not retreat, and "died to the enemy". This time Wu Qi gave him another

If my son sucks sores, I'm afraid he will fight to the death out of gratitude. The child will definitely die!

This sucking of hemorrhoids sounds disgusting, but it is very powerful - Corporal Lixian is just giving opportunities and respect to those below. It is really amazing to share the joys and sorrows. Corporal Lixian, sharing the joys and sorrows is a step-by-step process.

There is a difference between partial gifting and sharing. Is fighting for others the same as fighting for yourself?

But there is no need to tell the adults about this. Firstly, it is unnecessary, and secondly, what are you trying to do? Naoxiu is honestly fighting against the Lucians in the far north. If we can't help, don't make trouble.

To be honest, after the return of the White Lord, Oguri Tadashi has really awakened. There has been a deep gap between him and the adults in Edo:

The series of new policies implemented by the shogunate last year seemed decent before, but now, Oguri feels something is wrong.

Although everyone is saying that this is a "change that has not happened in a thousand years", in the end, this awareness is still far behind - let's talk about singing and dancing to promote peace and praising virtues. It has not stopped in Edo. All the houses are set on fire, but everyone still goes up.

Let’s have some snacks. I thought this was the age of kings, kings, ministers, fathers and sons. In troubled times, there are so many bones, and flesh and blood can’t help but cannibalize each other. Tokugawa

Wasn't this the case in the Warring States Period before the shogunate? "In troubled times, morality is useless!" If we don't work hard, it will be a good life for our descendants to be alive in the future!

Naohide really didn't instill anything in Oguri. He taught people to make progress and make lightning strikes - this is a thankless task. You have to rely on yourself to realize it, but there are a lot of facts in front of you. Oguri has to believe it even if he doesn't believe it.

The main thing that touched him was the Zhezhe people - Naohide explained the atrocities of the Lucians in detail in order to explain the necessity of attacking. His original intention was to tell Oguri, "If I don't hit him, he will hit me, so I have to strike first."

powerful."

Originally, Oguri didn't really feel much about this - the lives of the people in the imperial court and the townspeople were pretty good, Edo was a prosperous place, and Oguri Tadashi was born in a family with good clothes and good food. Speaking of which, it is the only time in his life that he has experienced folklore.

When he was suffering, one was the recent disaster relief, and the other was when Naohide took him to Aki County to help the poor Yoshida Kanbei.

Oguri was stubborn, but after Naohide told him, he was still alive. He asked several Hezhe people to ask, "This Lucia is also a big Western country, is it really so cruel?" - It has been a year since the Hezhe people came to Baizhu, and they said

I can't understand half of it, but I have my own interpreter to help. These people have empirical evidence. Besides, if you don't believe in the interpreter, can you see the real thing?

There is a reason why the Ainu would rather follow Naohide to the unfamiliar Kitai Ezo land than stay and be harmed by the Rusians.

"You said cruelty? You're wrong. I think it's inhumane." - Several Hezhe people told the past with tears and snot in their noses. Some even took off their clothes when they got excited. This was a stab wound.

, it was done by a whip, and the missing hand was also done by the Lucians. This is considered lucky. After all, it can still survive to this day. Some tribes are all dead. Our tribe was killed and froze to death.

Almost every household had people starving to death. It would not be an exaggeration to call that time a hell on earth.

The amount of information and appeal conveyed by words, language, and objects are indeed different. Oguri was shocked at the time. If Westerners really landed on Fuso land, would such a tragedy happen?

Oguri couldn't guarantee that this wouldn't happen - if he had done it elsewhere, why couldn't he do it in Fuso? If he thought about it with his toes, he could understand that this was entirely possible.

To be honest, even if Oguri is the one who knows the most about the West among the ministers, he still cannot fully understand the worries he has always had about Mr. Egawa Tanan and Naohide.

Only through his own experience did he realize the profound crisis. Naohide cheated directly, while the twenty-seven-year-old Oguri realized it entirely on his own, so sometimes he felt that Mr. Tanan and Naohide were too radical and a bit deceptive, but everyone was

all the way, so he just never showed it.

But at that time, the Hezhe people taught him a lesson, and he completely understood the principle of the weak being helpless, so Oguri Tadashi figured it out on the boat back to Edo. Although he could not defeat the Westerners, this iron, cast iron cannon

He Datong, building big ships is bound to be implemented - he can't live his life and be bullied for being inferior to others. And if he wants to do this, he must first open the country. It is unrealistic and unsafe to rely solely on Xianheng Matheson and Lan Guo Commercial House.

The series of new policies implemented by the shogunate last year seemed decent before, but now they are still too small and not courageous!

Therefore, when Wakato-sama on duty asked about Shiro and Naohide, Oguri just paid the bill hastily - he felt that it was useless to talk to these people. Not only was it useless, but it might be self-defeating. These people were only worthy of holding back.

!

But after all, the highest level of officialdom is overwhelming. Seeing that his superiors wanted to inquire, Oguri told the story of what he saw and heard in Bai Zhu to the best person he could talk about. Master Ruonianji was very happy when he heard it:

When he heard that the "Ainu" people near Bai Zhu had been harmed by the Lucians, the old man felt sorry for them. He also sighed with emotion when he heard that Bai Zhu had repelled the enemy's repeated harassment.

, "The benevolent are invincible. Lucia does not teach loyalty and forgiveness,

Even though you can be tyrannical for a while, you will surely be defeated over time."

Oguri didn't dare to refute him face to face, thinking that the white master was armed with the latest Western ordnance, and according to Naohide, the Lucian iron cannons were also considered backward among Western countries. This was the latest to defeat the backward ones, and Naohide was full of tricks during this period.

In fact, there are more people fighting against fewer people. It's strange that we can't win. The fact is completely different from what you said "the benevolent are invincible"!

After a lot of effort to fool his boss, Xiaoli quickly ran to meet the newly appointed General of the Conquest of Yi, Jiaxiang. In fact, Jiaxiang is not officially a General of the Conqueror of Yi, because the title of General of Conquest of Yi was granted by the royal family.

So far, the small imperial court in Kyoto has not officially issued an edict, but the ministers do not care about this. Let you issue the edict to give you face, how dare you disagree? Therefore, Edo has long called the original Nishimaruta Ieho with the name Gongfang.

But things went against expectations. Not only did he not see the new father-in-law, Oguri Tadashi also became very angry.

In fact, Xiaoli was pretty good. During the period when Jiaxiang was still observing mourning, the royal servant personally met Xiaoli and comforted him, saying that the journey was hard, "It's such a long journey by sea. If you can come back alive, it's a blessing from God; Bai Bai

You live in a remote and remote area, and you probably don’t have much specialties. Just come back and take a good rest in Edo. Now is the time to employ people. Oguri, you are the Kiriner praised by the Imperial Palace. You must work harder to serve the public in the future."

These are all good words, but Xiaoli believes that at this time, the father-in-law Jiaxiang should come out more to contact the old ministers - Xiaoli thinks that he is a veteran minister. He has just taken office. Even if he is in the period of filial piety or is weak and sick, the new father-in-law should try his best to do everything possible.

It's good to unite people - prestige is accumulated bit by bit. Those who are qualified to meet the shogun are all important ministers of the shogunate. Even if they come out to speak, it shows that they value their ministers. Although the place where I am sent as an envoy is Baizhu

In such a remote place, it is the general's family business to raise the salary of the Hui family. After all, the White Master is the Yuanguo Enforcement Office. Is it really okay if you don't come forward to ask?

My lord is slow, this is not a good thing. It seems that I have to work harder and don't let outsiders take advantage of the new and old imperial palaces!

Oguri shook his head and sighed as he returned to the office - this is the office of the office. After returning from his mission, he wanted to come to report that he was safe and to see if there were any new errands.

The daimofu is responsible for supervising the small court in Kyoto, the princes, the big body banner, and the Gao family, and is also responsible for supervising the shogunate administration-in fact, he is keeping an eye on the important officials of the shogunate headed by Lao Zhong to prevent these people from slacking off or acting recklessly.

The imperial minister, on the other hand, keeps an eye on the ministers at the lower level, and helps him with some practical matters - for example, if the imperial minister feels that a prince is making some small move, the patrol envoy will go out to investigate, and the patrol envoy is often held by the imperial minister.

.

The shogunate usually does not only eat but also work. He also has a lot of disciples and villains under his command. There are so many things in the shogunate. If you really work hard, there will be too many things.

After Oguri Tadatsuki was transferred to Ometsuke from Nagasaki Mesuke, his first assignment was to supervise the construction of Odaiba by Tarozaemon Egawa. However, before Odaiba was completed, Oguri volunteered to supervise disaster preparedness and relief - Shinagawa Odaiba.

After the construction was completed, although the construction of the platforms on both sides of the Uraga Suidou was not completed, Oguri was very angry with the coastal defense officials for changing his plan indiscriminately, so he ran away early.

This disaster relief work was successful, and as a result, he was appointed as an envoy by the previous governor and went around the north.

When I came back this time, I didn't know what unlucky job I was assigned to do again, so I had to go back to the head office to find out. The company had just changed people. The black ship of Miren will come again the next year. I am still too busy with the official business. I have to do such an outrageous job.

Don’t do it!

As a result, as soon as Oguri arrived at the head office, he was summoned by Hori Ken, the Ome Fu office on duty. As soon as he met Hori Ken, he asked Oguri, "Have you heard about it?"
