In an interview, Ashikaga Yoshiteru was surprised, Uesugi Terutora was surprised, but only Shiba Yoshigan had a splitting headache.
I always feel like the whole thing is out of my control and sliding in an unpredictable direction.
It was obviously a political transaction with mutual interests, but Ashikaga Yoshiteru showed an irrational attitude.
It was promised that the Wu family would focus on profits and make way for profit? This foolish king has been deceived by beauty!
Teru Uesugi also became strange, which made him suspect that this was a problem caused by too high a charm value.
Being too handsome is a big problem.
After dismissing the weird-looking Teruhu Uesugi, he thought of going to the Mibuchi Mansion.
Mibuchi Haru has a close relationship with him, so it would be unreasonable not to visit him when he comes to Beijing.
Moreover, she is a shogunate and an important figure in Hosokawa Mibuchi's family. Her thoughts can be heard on some matters inside and outside the shogunate.
Mibuchiharu has a good nature and good conduct, but is a bit pedantic and soft-hearted. He cannot react well when things happen, so he is called an honest person and often suffers some disadvantages.
But the Sanbuchi family has been together in the shogunate for many years, and they have their own unique opinions on things. Otherwise, they are not honest people, but dead people.
What a fool, how could he survive in such a deep water shogunate.
When they arrived at the Sanyuan Mansion to meet the family governor, Sanyuan Qing was overjoyed and received Yiyin in the inner room.
The two families have been friends for generations, and they already had a good relationship with each other. Now that their interests intersect, they become even closer.
After pulling Yoshiyin and talking to each other for a while, Haru Mibuchi asked about today's events.
"I brought the Nagao family governor to see the general today. Is everything okay? You didn't have any dispute with the general, right?"
Hosokawa Fujitaka came yesterday and exchanged some ideas.
The three families are now cooperating with each other, and Haru Mibuchi is quite familiar with the recent affairs of the Shiba family.
What she was most afraid of was that Yiyin would fall into his old habit and bump into the general again.
Yiyin was stunned for a moment, wondering if the general's suppression of him was considered a dispute.
Seeing him in a daze, Officer Mibuchi Haru couldn't help but sigh.
"What good can I say about you? You kid can't be more respectful. He is a general, the lord of the world.
Although the Shiba family is a relative of Ashikaga, and you have contributed a lot, there is still a matter of dignity.
I always make a fuss every time I see Mr. Gongfang, what's the big deal?"
Yiyin said.
"I just have some conflicts with my attitude towards Kanto, so I expressed my thoughts.
The Ashikaga family is currently weak in strength, and Mr. Kokata is still obsessed with checks and balances and manipulating powerful samurai families, which may lead to endless disasters."
Mibuchi Haru replied.
"Then what do you want the general to do?
The strength of the Ashikaga family has been declining from generation to generation, and Mr. Kokata is also powerless.
After being criticized by you, the shogunate will be troubled again."
Yiyin smiled awkwardly.
"No, I'm just complaining."
Sanbuchi Haru shook his head and said solemnly.
"Master Gongfang has a strong character and strong self-esteem.
What you said is correct. Naturally, she couldn't swallow this breath and wanted to get up and show it to you.
After all, she treats you..."
Mibuchi Haru glanced at Yoshiyin and shook his head helplessly.
Which woman can bear to be looked down upon by the man she likes, let alone if she is a strong-willed man.
Yiyin became even more embarrassed and said.
"Will it be troublesome?"
Replied by Haru Mibuchi.
"I don't know, the ministers are also in chaos right now.
The Ninagawa family took advantage of the opportunity to make frequent small moves in the political office.
After being reprimanded by Mr. Kakata, the Ise family also felt depressed and showed no intention of confrontation for the time being.
But after all, her family has generations of nobles and will not be defeated so easily, and she has strong support from Guandong behind her."
Yiyin didn't understand.
"If the general wants to rise up, will he start from the political office?"
Mibuchi Haru sighed.
"Not only the government offices, but also the ministers and ministers can't escape.
The shogunate is not strong, but it cannot be said to be weak. The mountain city's national stone is 220,000 stones high, and there are shogunate fiefs in the surrounding countries, with a total of no less than 350,000 stones.
Kyoto is also the commercial center of the world. The business tax alone is met with mercy, and many people even invest in it themselves.
Coupled with the offerings from samurai families from various places, the annual donation can maintain an Ashikaga warrior of five hundred warriors.
That was the Ji Samurai Regiment, and the salary, armaments, and food consumed every year were not a small amount.
A rough calculation shows that the mobilization force of the shogunate should be six to seven hundred thousand koku.
In addition to the 40,000 to 50,000 direct leaders of the Hosokawa family, the Shiba family, my Mibuchi family, and the Hatakeyama family, the local powerful faction also has a territory of nearly 500,000 koku."
Mibuchiharu counted on his fingers, and Yiyin was frightened when he heard it.
He has been raving that the Ashikaga family is in ruins, but just looking at the figures on the books, the mobilization strength of the Ashikaga General's command is no less than 1.1 million koku.
Nothing is wrong, this is obviously very good!
Yiyin said doubtfully.
"The shogunate is not weak, but it has been beaten to pieces by the Miyoshi family. It still needs Omi reinforcements to support it."
Mibuchi Haru rolled her eyes at him and was quite dissatisfied with the sentence, and snorted.
"That's because the ministers and generals are not aligned.
Although the shogunate was an Ashikaga retainer, he had flourished in and around the mountain castle for more than a hundred years.
The Ashikaga family had many wars, and the previous shoguns were even driven out of Kyoto for several years, so they could not be controlled.
Now the ministers control the land and grab a lot of commercial interests.
The Ashikaga family only had 500 horses, so they could barely feed the Hime Warriors.
When we send troops to fight, we still need the support of ministers and logistics. How can we not be looked down upon?
If the banner of the shogunate had not been related to the fundamental interests of the ministers, they would have ignored the general and lived their own lives."
Yiyin nodded.
"So when Sanhao invades, the ministers don't want to waste their own strength at all.
At worst, we can sacrifice the interests of the general's family and welcome the Sanhao family in, and they will still live their lives."
Mibuchiharu remained silent and nodded silently.
Her family was originally from the line of ministers, but because of the relationship with the Hosokawa family, there were some inexplicable implications.
Now that Yiyin has given the territory to Kitakawachi, the Sanbuchi family is gradually regarded as a powerful local faction by the ministers.
Among the ministers, they are no longer as comfortable as before.
The powerful local factions are all Ashikaga relatives. They use their family lineage to suppress the local area. They are far more concerned about maintaining the guardian system headed by the Ashikaga family than the shogunate.
It can also be seen from this recent battle that the Izumi-Hosokawa family fought to the death, but the ministers did not work hard. Comparing the two, the gap is too big.
Ashikaga Yoshiteru saw this, could he really be indifferent?
I'm afraid I have some ideas.
Now that Yiyin has stimulated him, there will be chaos in the shogunate for a while.
Haruka Mibuchi has the dual identity of a powerful local faction and a minister, and he can figure out the general's thoughts very accurately.
Her words made Yiyin worried.
"If the general wants to rectify the ministers, will it be like the local military family rectifying the retainers, causing the subordinates to suppress the superiors?"
Replied by Haru Mibuchi.
"impossible.
The general is not a local guardian, and the shogunate is not an ordinary retainer group. The banner of the shogunate connects the two parties too closely.
Without the Shogun, there would be no center of the shogunate and no position of Kyoto as the center of the world.
The shogunate's family identity comes from the shogunate, and his business interests come from Kyoto, the center of the world, so he will never overturn the table."
The ministers are like rattan, and the shogunate is like a big tree. If the shogunate falls, the rattan will fall into the mud.
