When Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, together with Ming envoys Yang Xu and Zheng He, were preparing to personally interrogate the pirate leader of Yajiao Island, Tayama Motokun sent him angrily news that the important prisoner he had taken into custody had been assassinated.
【】This incident immediately caused an uproar in Beishan Palace, and all three ministers were involved in it.
Oda Tsunematsu's people have rushed back from Owari Starry Night and figured out the identity of this pirate leader. His name is Oda Hidetoshi, and he is indeed a member of the Oda family. As a nephew of the Oda family, Oda Tsunematsu has full respect for him.
He was sure that he would not do anything stupid like the one who trapped the family leader. General Si Boyi was relieved after hearing the report.
When he came to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu today, he originally thought of "falsely accusing himself" of witnesses. When the confession was reversed in court, the ridiculous expressions on the faces of His Excellency the General and Hosokawa Mitsurugi were unexpected. The criminal was actually dead. This time, Yoshimitsu Yoshimitsu was a yellow nigga.
It stuck to his crotch, and it was either feces or feces, which made him very upset.
Hosokawa Mangen, who didn't know the details, was even more dissatisfied. He determined that this was Tayama Motoyama's favor to General Shiba, and he intended to give the other party a chance to kill and silence him. Therefore, he did not hesitate to do so in front of the two Ming envoys, Xia Xun and Zheng He.
He yelled politely and harshly, criticizing Yoshitsho Shiba and Hosokawa Mitsubishi for collaborating and destroying evidence.
In Tayama Motokun, the only one who had a reason to assassinate the murderer was General Shiba. This old guy was angered by the assassination of General Shiba. To be honest, he did not want to get involved in any dispute between the Shiba family and the Hosokawa family.
, and now General Shibao used the most despicable means to force him into the chariot, and Tayama Motokuni was furious about this.
He told Ashikaga Yoshimitsu face to face that General Shiba Yi had brought people to the Kameji Temple and forcibly requested to meet the prisoners but was refused, thus implying that the assassins had a close relationship with General Shiba Yi, and then ordered the samurai who guarded the Kame Temple that night
They all committed suicide to apologize, but their violent actions confused Hosokawa Mitsubishi: If Tayama Motoyama had really taken refuge in Shiba Yoshitsune, there seemed to be no need to express himself in such a drastic way.
Immediately afterwards, the news that someone found the corpses of two ninjas was quickly sent to Beishan Temple. After the corpses arrived, although no one knew the two ninjas, everything they carried could already confirm their identity.
identity, hiring ninjas to do some shady things is what daimyo and guardians often do. The discovery of two ninja corpses only made the suspicion of General Shiba more serious.
Faced with the chaotic situation in which the three leaders were criticizing each other, Xia Xun and Zheng He also expressed their dissatisfaction and worries to Ashikaga Yoshimitsu in a tactful way. They were worried that those who colluded with the pirates could interfere in Kyoto affairs and kill someone under strict control.
important witness, then it is a question whether the Chinese side can effectively implement the strategy of suppressing bandits. If the Chinese side cannot do this, then they will immediately return to China and petition the Emperor of Heaven to cancel trade with Japan.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu immediately made a promise to the two envoys to the Kingdom. He would definitely urge the daimyo and guardians everywhere to strictly implement anti-piracy measures, and order the pursuit of pirates who fled ashore throughout the country. He also immediately issued an order to the emperor.
Announcement to the whole country in the name of the general. At this time, General Shibaoyi had already used his influence to make various obstacles to the arrest of pirates. He was already trapped in the situation, and he only wanted to clear his grievances and resist the pressure from the general, Hosokawa.
The pressure from Man Yuan and Tian Shan Jiguo was enough to make him exhausted.
After getting Ashikaga Yoshimitsu's promise, Xia Xun reluctantly agreed to stay until Ashikaga Yoshimitsu showed his sincerity in suppressing the bandits. Ashikaga Yoshimitsu breathed a sigh of relief and sent his close retainer Kanze Daishi Zeami to accompany the two Chinese envoys to Edo.
After sightseeing and relaxing, Xia Xun and Zheng He went to visit Mount Fuji. The three shogunate officials were in a mess. The retainers who were subordinate to the three officials and the daimyo who were close to different officials, and the guardians joined different camps.
Because of the incident at Shengui Temple, the long-simmering conflict between them completely broke out.
"It turns out that the Ming Dynasty envoy deliberately captured a pirate leader. His real purpose was not to bite the leader of Sibo, but to capture first and then kill him, in order to arouse suspicion among the three ministers in charge, so as to promote
Is Guan Tianshan moving closer to me?"
When things have reached this stage, if Kasuga Bureau still doesn't understand what the young and handsome Ming Dynasty envoy needs her to do, she is not worthy to participate in such a big event as seizing the legitimate son. Kasuga Bureau holds her cheeks, sits in front of the makeup mirror and secretly
He thought: "Doing this will undoubtedly maximize the use value of a pirate leader, and it will cause far greater harm than his identification to such a powerful prince like Si Boyi."
Thinking about it, she sighed quietly: "What a fascinating guy!"
Kasuga Bureau was secretly shocked by the depth of Yang Xu's calculations. This young, handsome and wise envoy of the Ming Dynasty had deeply conquered her heart.
At this time, a maid came in and reported: "Madam, Chief Tianshan has arrived!"
Kasuga Bureau let out a soft "Ah", stood up immediately, and walked out quickly.
She has seized the opportunity and started to win over.
She began to frequently contact Tayama Motokuni to resolve the hostility and distrust between him and Hosokawa Mitsubishi, and win him over for her own use.
Tayama Motokun couldn't bear the situation of being enemies on both sides, and he was resentful that General Shiba had framed him for injustice. With the skillful mediation of Kasuga Bureau, he began to slowly fall towards Hosokawa Mitsumoto's camp. Although Hosokawa
Man Yuan's power was weak, and Tianshan Jiguo's power was even weaker, but the two leaders joined forces and had a considerable impact on the authority of General Shiba.
When He Tianyang stood on the top of Fuji Mountain, opened his arms in the direction of the sunrise, and howled excitedly: "I'm here! I see! I conquer!" The political situation in Kyoto had already undergone great changes. The Hosokawa clan and
The two major power groups of the Yamada clan have joined forces.
Kenjingu Shrine, Oda Town, Dansei County.
On April 29th, the spring festival began. The inside and outside of the Sword God Palace were crowded with people from all over the country who came to perform pilgrimage and worship. Naturally, those who could enter the palace to offer incense and worship were people with relatively high status. They were either big businessmen or wealthy clans.
, men, women, the elderly, and children, all dressed in the most solemn crowns and robes, paid the highest courtesy to the chief priest, the gods of the supporting sacrifices, and the sacred swords enshrined between them.
Suddenly, a warrior suddenly stood up. He seemed a little anxious and wanted to go out. However, because he stood up in a hurry and the hall was full of people kneeling, he stumbled to avoid an old man who had just stood in front of him. He seemed to be unsteady on his feet.
It hit the incense table with such force that it knocked down the sword stand enshrining the divine sword on the incense table.
"Asshole! Kick him out!" A divine servant rushed over angrily.
"sorry Sorry!"
The warrior hurriedly apologized, grabbed the sword from the incense table, hurriedly climbed up to confess, and wanted to put the sword back into the holder. Suddenly, he stopped, shook his arm, and screamed: "Fake!"
This divine sword is fake!"
This sentence suddenly stunned everyone who was worshiping in the hall. They all looked up at him. He knelt on the incense table in a ridiculous posture and pulled out the divine sword in his hand with a "swish", although it was very rare.
Someone has the opportunity to touch this divine sword, but the style of the divine sword is familiar to every believer. The shining sword in his hand is exactly the same as the familiar divine sword.
The warrior stood up on the altar table, shouted angrily, and folded the sword heavily on his knees. With a "click", the divine sword was broken in half, and many wooden thorns appeared at the break. He swung it.
Holding the divine sword and continuing to shout: "It's fake! The divine sword in the Sword God Palace is fake! Where did they hide the divine sword? They used a fake to deal with us, what a bastard!"
"It's fake! The Divine Sword is fake!" The exclamation quickly spread from the inside to the outside, reaching the ears of every pilgrim.
When a priest hurried to the hall where the sacred objects were enshrined, the two priests had been surrounded by the angry crowd. Only two of their feet were exposed. The priest could only take the action of being beaten by the angry believers, but was unable to do so.
The legs of the two divine attendants moved and they couldn't help but exclaimed, "What happened?"
The crowd discovered him and immediately retreated like a tide, revealing two bloody corpses. Then the tide rushed up again and rushed towards him, roaring angrily: "Hand over the Excalibur! Hand over the sword.
Divine Sword! Where did you hide the Divine Sword?"
The samurai who collided with the incense case and discovered the authenticity of the divine sword was a retainer of the Ishibashi clan. The Ishibashi clan is a clan with ancient inheritance in Echizen. When the Hosokawa clan was the guardian of Echizen, the Ishibashi clan was a member of the Hosokawa clan. Therefore,
After Echizen became the territory of the Shiba clan, the Shiba clan did not reuse the Ishibashi clan, but the Oda clan who was attached to him.
The Ishibashi family received a letter from an unknown person informing them that the sword in Kenjin Palace had been stolen and that the priests of the Oda family were using fakes to deceive believers. This was a rare opportunity for the declining Ishibashi family. They must
Caught. But they couldn't believe that someone dared to offend the divine power and steal the divine sword. The priest who had the divine object stolen not only refused to die to apologize, but actually dared to use fake goods to scare people. They were not afraid of the gods' punishment and the disaster would last forever.
Descendants?
So they first sent a samurai to verify the authenticity. When the divine sword was proved to be a fake, their pre-arrangements began. The angry crowd was stirred up, and the priests and divine attendants were beaten to death several times.
Everyone who was lucky enough to escape fled into the mountains and forests. Immediately afterwards, several major local clans united with monks from various temples and priests from various shrines, marched toward Kyoto in a mighty manner, and complained to the shogunate.
In the law at that time, the most serious crime was offense against temples and shrines. There were the most laws in this area. Not only did the public law from the imperial court list this part of the law as the first part, but it was also the most important part.
The samurai laws from the shogunate, laws related to temples and shrines are also the most important.
Just imagine that after Ashikaga Yoshimitsu became the de facto Emperor, he also needed to become a monk in order to control the power of the temple. You can know how powerful the power of the temple was at that time.
If the alliance between the Hosokawa clan and the Tayama clan only posed some threat to the dominance of Yoshigashi Shiba's family, what happened at Kenjingu Shrine was a fatal blow to him. General Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had such a major
Excuse, he finally tore off the mask of hypocrisy and revealed his full mouth of fangs!
